      🎶 babyyyy believeeee meeeeeeeeeeeee 🎶 and you had every chance you destroy everything that you know 🎶
      plus the way her body snapped with the beat at 1:19 is a good sign she might have her ears inside a loop for 8 hours a day 😉

    • @korybant8409
      @korybant8409 Před 7 lety +39

      Nope, because the beat itself isn't proof of advanced prolonged production. It would've been present in the acoustic guitar draft.
      There is no real evidence for or against.

    • @korybant8409
      @korybant8409 Před 7 lety +90

      It's likely she is naturally talented and chose the complex timbres and textures herself. That is probable.
      But advanced sound engineering in addition to composition? That's improbable. Possible, but improbable.
      It's not even a male vs female issue. It would be very difficult for anyone.

      I believe the "angel" is named Ivy, and she was supposed to be the oldest of all the personas. One's a gamer-girl, she's the most modern and youngest. And the "princess" you're talking about is actually supposed to mimic Marie Antoinette. If I recall correctly, Claire (Grimes) actually stated the setting behind this was to go back in time and kill that Marie character. I'm assuming the other characters were incarnations of Ivy, but that's a guess. Interesting, none the less!

  • @bratswood
    @bratswood Před 8 lety +283

    Why do so many people think creating a pop song is "selling out"? The only way to sell out in music is to create lazy shit that misses its mark. This is the opposite of that. This is ambitious and addictive music, with aching, subtly hauting lyrics that reach out universally: in short, pop music at its best. And like all music at its best, this is HARD to pull off so well. This is like a sugary confection that's been burnt with a cigarette lighter, just at the edges. Listen closer. There's a darkness at the heart of this. If all contemporary pop sounded this good, I'd still be a mainstream radio listener.

      I'm also older, and can't stand 99% of modern music, but my ears perked up a few years back when I heard her first hit. I thought I should've hated it, but I liked. Now, the more I dig, the more I like. Thank God an actual artist made it. She kind of reminds me of Bowie in a weird way. No way am I as much a fan, nor is her music as broad, but she has his free aesthetic to do whatever she wants. At least it's not packaged by a group of bs label runners and producer/agents.
      The ironic thing about this song is it's really a borderline rock song. The drums and bass are kicking, and there is real (or simulated) guitar in it. It's not some boring overused trap beat, and she's not working in the sh*t vocal lane that so many modern vocalists overuse with the bad rapping and autotune. This is actually very 80s underground, even though modernized. It's because she came from Vancouver, a place with some brains.

      +John High she is living her truth and right now her truth is to make pop, people give her so much shit and lot of that has to do with the fact that she is a woman. But even if you think about it from the sexist perspective, she isn't even just like a singer who gets people to write her songs or cowrites them and then has someone produce her music and then have a stylist team come up with her whole aesthetic. She producers her own music BY HERSELF. She writes her music BY HERSELF. She has her OWN AESTHETIC SHE CREATED. She directed edited wrote styled and did the art direction for a music video she literally did everything herself on. No one is giving the Weeknd shit for going pop. This was the perfect video and the perfect response from her. Bravo Grimes!

      +John High I write songs and I can tell you, this is not in the spirit of Grimes. The instrumental sounds like it was straight ripped out of a Taylor Swift song and put her vocals on it. Even the vocals are less Grimes than normal (though they somewhat resemble her older stuff). But the overall changes she made are completely moving away from what made her fun.

      +Jin ofWind You can't tell anyone this is not in the spirit of Grimes because you're not her, lol. Everything she does will be in the so called "spirit of Grimes" since it was released by her. Grimes isn't a musical style, it's a singer. You and other fans may not like whatever she releases, but trying to appropriate on what can or cannot be called her style over herself is just plain dumb at this point. lol

    • @indigosleeper
      @indigosleeper Před 8 lety +2

      Marco Lopes I've been listening to Grimes for a bit, this song literally goes against everything that made her unique. Not only that, but the music video perfectly reflects the demographic this album is going after. The spirit of Grimes isn't a genre or sound, it was a uniqueness that her music had from other Indie Pop and Synth Pop musicians. There is not a single thing that makes this song unique besides her slathering her vocals in more reverb than others. She clearly threw away anything that gave her production personality. She has always changed album to album, but this change isn't just a sound change, it's her throwing all that made her who she was musically away.

    This song was written for the so-called fans who mercilessly bullied her after she released music that they deemed too mainstream. They called her a sell-out for incorporating more pop-driven music direction--but her melodic electronic music has always been pop-influenced, so toxic hipsters just don't like to see a successful female artist. They want to keep her to themselves as this "undervalued genius" but the moment her talent gets any air, it threatens the toxic hipster's notion of intellectual superiority. I love to see my favorite underground artists gain success because I want to share the music I love with the world and how exciting is it when a song you love comes on in the supermarket? It brightens your day!

    You claw, you fight, you lose
    Got a doll that looks just like you
    Remember when we used to say
    "I love you" almost every day
    I saw a light in you
    Going out as I closed our window
    You never liked me anyway
    I don't see the light I saw in you before
    And now I don't, and now I don't
    And now I don't care anymore
    (And now I don't care anymore)
    Baby, believe me
    And you had every chance
    You destroyed everything that you know
    (Uncontrollable)
    If you don't need me
    Just let me go
    You hate, you bite, you lose
    After all, I just don't like you
    It's nice that you say you like me
    But only conditionally
    Your voice, it had the perfect flow
    It got lost when you gave it up though
    Cause you want money
    You want fame
    I don't see the light I saw in you before
    And now I don't, and now I don't
    And now I don't care any more
    (And now I don't care any more)
    Baby, believe me
    And you had every chance
    You destroyed everything that you know
    (Uncontrollable)
    If you don't need me
    Just let me go
    Baby, believe me
    And you had every chance
    You destroy everything that you know

      The "parenthetical" line that follows "And now I don't care anymore" is not a repeat of that line but "You're unloveable". That's what I hear, anyway.
      As for the part at 2:59, that's *really* hard. I don't blame you for not even trying. :-)
      Here's a rough approximation [my notes in brackets]:
      Ooh-oo-oo-ooh, ooh-oo-oo-ooh
      Ay, ay, oh, oh / Stumble out backward, down, baby [last word very speculative!]
      And your heart played its sad song [but last 2 words look like "so so" in the lip-sync]
      On the ground, underneath me
      And the with-you dream can hurt
      Ay, ay [but 2nd word in lip-sync looks like "aif"]
      Oh, no
      And your heart gave me up though / You're unlovable

    honestly when I first listened to her new singles I was like "what the fuck is she doing? these are just pop songs" and I thought she was regressing as an artist because her older stuff was so new and fresh sounding. But honestly, after listening to these songs more than once I was wrong. These songs are so solid and the problem was that I had put her in a box and just expected more of what she's already done. There's still a whole bunch of good reference points in her music like always, she's just producing music in a more accessible way.

    *ok for all the people complaining about her becoming mainstream and selling out etc:* just because her music is sounding of more like generic pop on mainstream radio doesn't mean she sold out?? (well she's always been a pop artist tho) if you pay attention to grimes, you would know that she loves all kinds of music, she doesn't give a fuck if the music is mainstream or not. she's very open about loving artists like lil wayne, nicki, madonna , selena etc to "good music" like tame impala, joanna newsom, the national to virtually unknown artists like st beauty and moon king. why do people dislike artists when they "sound mainstream"? david bowie was basically a mainstream artist, does that mean he's a sellout?? grimes wrote, produced like all of her work, she is one of most genuine, open minded artists out there, give her a break. honestly, if she re-did visions i bet y'all would complain about how she's the same and you wanted more from her etc etc like honestly she is an actual person, she isn't born to be your "indie goddess", she isn't making music to make you cool and different, she will not change what she desires in her music to suit your stupid standards (i.e not a sellout, sellouts do whatever to please the audience right??? bc thats how u make mo money???) stop nagging and let her be, you all need to get over yourselves smh

    Grimes is incredible. She’s brilliant. I deem the genre of this song Dream Pop as the music & the video really do make you feel like you’re in a dream, another realm that is joyous & surreal. She’s for sure an artist too as she hates much of her older music. Artists are always extremely hard on themselves. I experience that same self-disparagement as a writer & film photographer. I’ve won many awards & had galleries showings for my photography, selling my prints for a significant amount of money too (anywhere from $100-400 per print, depending on if it’s framed too), yet I still tear apart anything & everything I’ve created, more so with my writing & poetry in particular, though I’ve moved to prose primarily now. (to be continued…)

    • @a.evelyn5498
      @a.evelyn5498 Před rokem +1

      I’m also an academic, with an undergraduate degree from Columbia University & a graduate degree in Anthropology from there as well, & I’m pursuing a PhD in Anthropology next. I’m a straight A student & praised for my writing in regard to my academic work, but I, again, tear it all apart & often feel embarrassed & ashamed about my work in spite of all the success I’ve had at university, let alone attending a prestigious university twice this far, with a very good chance of attending a prestigious university for my PhD as well. I would love to stay at Columbia, but they prefer for students to have experiences at different universities & it’s already a great feat that I was accepted twice in a row, as well as having been accepted to the university’s Teachers College in between, though choosing to pursue Anthropology instead. So really I was accepted thrice in a row, which is very much unheard of as, again, these top universities prefer not only for students to have different experiences at different universities but they also like to mix it up with the students they accept. I actually wasn’t accepted to the two other graduate programs to which I applied along with Columbia, both other schools in NYC (The New School & Hunter College). The acceptance rates are much higher at those universities & although very good schools, they are not considered as the same caliber as Columbia. Ultimately I felt like a failure, like I only was accepted to Columbia as I had connections there & two professors from there - & the third with multiple graduate degrees from there - wrote my recommendations for the graduate program, so I felt that those recommendations & connections were the only reasons I was accepted. I felt like an imposter (Imposter Syndrome in which one feels like one doesn’t belong, far less worthy & valuable - if at all - from those around one), from which I suffered during undergraduate as well. I’m extremely grateful that I was accepted, & I believe I’ve proved my capabilities being that I have a 4.0 GPA & I am often praised by my professors, some of whom I’ve grown quite close to, one of whom I’ve been very close with since undergraduate, so ten years ago (as I’m thirty now & I began taking courses with her at 20, & she took me under her wing & became not only a mentor to me but also an incredibly supportive & uplifting figure in my life & she’s agreed - having already assumed - that she’ll be writing one of my recommendations for the PhD. I only have a semester left for the graduate program, but after only one semester, I had acquired the other two recommendations (three required) for the PhD program. Needless to say, I have many people - especially such revered professors with tenure - in my corner & yet I am EXTREMELY hard on myself & often don’t feel good enough whatsoever, leading me to spiral into severe depressive episodes. At times, I even become s*c*d*l… as I have such little faith in myself particularly during those times of profound melancholia, of course. I want to believe in myself & assure myself that I can do something *great as that’s been my dream since I was very young, elementary school age- greatness but I doubt myself all the time to the point that I feel as if it’ll destroy me, that my mind & mental health is sabotaging me. I just rambled way too much, & no one will ever read this. (to be continued, again…)

    • @a.evelyn5498
      @a.evelyn5498 Před rokem +1

      Yet I want to say this: Grimes is such an inspiration as no matter how much she doubts herself, she keeps creating no matter what, following her passions no matter how she feels or down she becomes & in spite of all the suffering she’s had to endure, in particular the loss of multiple friends in a short span of time, just several years I believe,. I’ve had MANY losses too with almost all of them not being natural - instead via h*m*cide, s*cide, overdoses, illness, car accident, etc. - with the first at only five years old, affecting me profoundly even though I was so young - & the most recent one only two years ago. Many people whom I’ve lost were those I loved *most in the world… family members with whom I was closest within my external family & the only boy I ever loved who died in my arms, with these losses (three family members from h*micide all at once & then that boy almost exactly ten years apart, with only a month in difference)… I let these losses destroy me for many years, my Complex PTSD & mental health issues ruling my life, rendering me unable to truly live. It’s taken A LOT of intensive trauma therapy (EMDR) to begin to heal. I don’t believe you ever get over such trauma; you just learn to live with the pain & find happiness in spite of it. My metaphor for life is that it’s like a river of sh*t & there are stones that allow you to cross the river. Those stones are happiness & it’s those moments of happiness that keep you going. If you are seeking “happiness” via euphoria instead (addictive behavior like dr*g use or the thrill from other self-harmful behaviors) then the stones are made of sand & will crumble beneath your feet. The moments of happiness are indeed fleeting; the small moments that light up one’s eyes with stars, & yet they make life not only survivable but livable & imbued with a sense of genuine hope in spite of all the suffering that is inevitable to life itself, originating with the very pain that is consciousness itself (ask Frankenstein’s monster about what it means to suddenly be thrust into consciousness & having to think & feel so very profoundly, without an end to it except when it’s dulled via such euphoria, false happiness. Anyway I’m still ranting even though I said I’d write only one last thing. This really is the end. I just want to thank Grimes (or Claire) one last time for being part of creating those moments of happiness, in which one indeed dances freely as if no one is watching.
