The choreography, the fact it was done in one shot at night, and on skates is impressive.
Come on now. Don't disrespect the quads. Those are not roller blades. :)
It was done in 2 shots, take a look at 2:00 there's a cut
Not just one shot though . . they change camera angles in the middle
Thats right
это хромаекй
One of the dancers, April Corley, was mistakenly bombed by an helicopter while in vacation in Western Egypt with a tour group. She will not be able to continue her dance career because of the injuries she sustained. Her longtime boyfriend Rafael died in the attack.
This is one of the greatest videos of all time. My heart breaks knowing what happened to her.
Is it the one in green?
@@hitzkooler15 Yes, I believe so.
No she’s the one in blue
Aweeeeee poor baby
My heart is broken for her. Such a sad fate for someone who obviously loved their craft.
These women are so strong and graceful. They are so talented!
I just hate what happened to one of them. Talk about horrible.
@@marinewillis1202w-w-what happened?
@@granthoover9045 she was in a bad accident and was paralyzed (I think) been a while so I might be off but a horrific accident. It’s was the one in the green
I'm obsessed with this song and the skaters. The choreography and execution is just fabulous.
Interesting how they made the video. Worth googling
This video was done with a single take, cant get better than that.
@@333ngor No, it wasn't a single take. They were clever with the cuts. There are 4 cuts if I remember it right
@@kiranvenugopalan4372 source
I play this in my garage bar every Thursday. It's always an attention getter. Great music with a sublime video.
Chet Faker is dead in a crash. The 3 rollerbladers are the 3 girls rolling towards him are the fates, the three sister deities, as portrayed in greek mythology, that "cut the string" of life when someone dies, they decide fates, etc. He isn't dead yet because the fates turn back and decide to give him a second chance.
Nice. Took me a while to find an explanation behind this vid. Thanks pizza hut!...also I dunno if you remember, but I used to work for you.
this makes the video even cooler than it is already
Yeah, i was thinking modern Valkyries.
The thing is.. There is 3 bullet holes on the wind screen! What you make of that?
there are 4 -_-
That's A+ Cinematography right there: the One-take feeling, the visual representation of the music at the start of the track, the lighting.... just pure gold.
+Johnny Titan W. nice pun
+Johnny Titan W. ++
didn't even notice the visual representation until you pointed it out, that's some really well done stuff
yeah
bat for lashes is great
+Johnny Titan W. my thoughts exactly!
Years later…. I can’t ever get over or love another video more than this one. I ALWAYS come back. It stays rent free in my mind for sure.
i'm sure you live rent free in many heads
The car wreck at the end -- with him in the passenger seat, the deer unscathed but fake, and the girls skating into the dark is just genius.
I took it as her love was a hit and run!
fuck it I'm buying my wife roller skates for Christmas
Is your wife blonde,tan and thick
whylordwhy yeptheysuck had to laugh!
whylordwhy yeptheysuck me 2
AWWW
Agreed haha!
I don't know man, I feel like I could just watch those girls skate all day.
I do, at work and soon as my family sleeps
Same 🤣🤣🤣
Definitely 🤤
One of them died
@@1231234blake how comes that?
One of my favorite 10 videos of all time. The mood, the skating, the singing from a car wreck.. all perfection!
Can you list down other 9?
And the deer just standing there like yeah I tore the shit out of dudes car!!
Everything in this video is insanely well choreographed and watching these three women skate can only be defined as the poetry of motion!
The choreography is next level. This plays with perspective is ways regular dancing videos just can't touch. 10/10 I'm not even mad that it makes no sense paired with the song.
it does make sense. its hot.
He was in a fatal car accident. Time stopped as 3 angels came to take his soul to heaven. He was denied and the angels flew away
+atomic.msl does angels look like that?!? :O
I'm going to church right now!
Not quite. The 3 ladies are the Furies (Erinyes). They bring divine vengeance. See the bulletholes in the windshield? Homeboy got assassinated. Also to note: symbol of Diana kickin' it by the car and the video was published on the eve of Diana's traditional feast day. This video is like Orestes in 4 mins. One second short of ?
+MyDixieRekt I spent a weekend with this fellow last year... He was a "interesting" person to put it as nice as possible but not as bad as sooooo many people and critics make him out to be.
The three skaters in the music video, which was directed by Hiro Mirai, are Appelusa McGlynn, April Corley and Candice Heiden. All three are accomplished skaters from the Greater Los Angeles Area. The choreography in the video was done by Ryan Heffington. Awesome video!!!
jimmy popp all of that is in the description....
April Corley was attacked by Egyptian army Apache helicopters (gift from Uncle Sam) on a tourist trip. She's now permanently disabled. Egyptian army killed 12 tourists in that attack, and it never had any consequences.
Tiffany Laserna Now that's information
@@tiffanylaserna1288 Oh wow. I just thought this was a troll but it's true, that's crazy.
jimmy popp Thank you so much for posting, I am at great add Mira of Mira and Ryan.
What these Artists did was incredible not to mention the precision of every element coming together!
I’d love to know the crew behind this because it was impeccable.
I’ve done many oners in my career is the 1st A.D.
this is brilliant it is so effortless it’s breathtaking.
I remember this being one of my favorite songs back in highschool (when it came out), and i just found it again today!!.Huge nostalgic moment...and I gotta say, i had really good taste back then
There's some fit young women. Talented skaters, beautiful choreography, haunting melody. Dig it the most.
can we just all agree how well choreographed this video was? These girls were awesome 👍
I purchased some skates because of this damn video...needless to say, my routine did not go this well.
+Johanna Gustavsson
Lol yea they make it look easy for sure, I hella want some skates too.
It's amazing what you can achieve with a bit of imagination.
That's exactly what I thought watching this video.. I gotta get some skates..
Wonderful. Such a long take, and still perfect. But if you look closely you can see the woman in the green jacket is not wearing rollerskates. I guess she didn't need them - she moves her hips and the world turns at her feet.
I've been working out like crazy to try to bulk my legs and butt up like that. Maybe I should try rollerskating.
Squats. Lots and lots of squats.
KipperTheArt Yeah squats.
Take into account these godesses have been skating for years and years.
This isn't something you can build up in one night.
KipperTheArt I have been skating for 5 years I have very ripped legs and especially calves, people go crazy when they see them... but it is not gonna be huge cuz not much weight is used still gonna give good definition and strength and its fun :)
KipperTheArt dan, is that you?
Cavid Nadirov You should try running. It really helps your legs muscles, and it's much more challenging the skating.
8 years old and still the best video with ZERO CGI. Continued love and respect to you "Chet", the skaters, and the fantastic director Hiro Murai.
Except there is so much CGI
@@colfol231 We know your Marvel superheroes look like Taxidermy but I assure you the thing itself exists
you can appreciate one art for without negging another. CGI takes hard work and good direction same as anything else.
Yes the road they are rolling on is chi 🤦♀️
I agree with your sentiment, however my pick for best music video sans any video effects is Around the World 😉. Take care!
Thanks to these girls, I've learned how to skate - and after two years - hell, I can do a lot of these tricks! Thanks Chet, thank you girls!
This video has inspired me to get back on to my roller blades. Will never come close to what these amazing ladies can do of course. Such a pleasure to watch over and over.
They are very inspiring. I've only just discovered this song and video. I'm going to my first skate lesson tomorrow night.
Do your legs look like that. Because I would love that hahaha
@@chelsey1657 not mentioning the hair - close enough to be honest! 🤣
That’s awesome. Used to skate(1979-82) all around Newport Bch pier and into Balboa..So crowded now, couldn’t imagine trying that today. Felt so alive and magical. See that roller “skating” still making people feel alive and magical!
I'm dating myself here, but this reminds me of the roller rinks back in the 70s when young women danced to disco on skates. Quite impressive.
We still do it down South!
really? thats so cool
There was a brief time in the early 2000s as I was going into high school that kinda thing was cool again. I wanted badly to be one of those cool smooth people on roller skates. I still can barely can skate in an upright position. #dreams
you should date other people
Had a rink in the city i'm from. Dropped in a few times. Was always jaw dropping and beautiful to see the people who could really dance.
this video is so satisfying the girls just move so smooth and fluidly
Lillith Cleary
I agree.. man I wish I could move like that... green jacket makes it look so easy and sensual... you go girls
Yep green jacket is da best imo !
Thats because "green jacket" is a professional Olympic style roller skater.
creamsykle they're all professionals lol
Lillith Cleary I heard she was injured pretty bad a while back.
i've just seen nick live in Bologna on hi european tour and i have to say he is one of a kind... good composer, amazing singer, huge pianist, super catchy guitarist... it was all so good i can't explain. there was an incredible vibe and whole quality was outstanding
This song feels like the most well written poem in the existence. There’s so many tiny details that represent something else and it’s amazing. I used to listen to this song with my mom when I was like 10-11 and I thought it was cool then. Now, years later there’s so many parts I didn’t appreciate and now I do.
him and glass animals would be GOLD!
my words!
Dude!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
was just listening to black mambo
yesyesyes you people have the right ideas
Long life to Alt-J
Still one of the most impressive music videos ever made.
@@darboboyle693 lol! That blonde doee
Isn't it greenscreen?
@@michaelrose8695 nope, it was a one night on a empty road work, here is the blond girl talking about it
czcams.com/video/8l2Y0BrsJ18/video.html
Darbo Boyle rollerboots? 😂
Roller skates.. roller blades maybe even
Not roller boots
Hell no!
Every now and then I return here to feel relaxed, inspired, and nostalgic. I love this song and video. Everyone is so talented.
My now and then is right now :) Glad to see others doing the same.
This is my favorite music video of all time. It works on so many levels.
me: imagining myself recreating this video with my skate girl gang
also me: laying in bed eating chocolate realizing I don't have a skate girl gang
Same -__-
Or a skate... oh i'd probably fall or get hit by a car anyways
Lol
Let’s make a skate girl gang😍
@@CHEEKY_MONKEY Everyone falls when learning to skate. Just put on protection, and lean how to roll over all those damned sticks and pebbles, and you'll get there eventually :D
HIRO MURAI IS THE DIRECTOR. HE ALSO DIRECTED:
Earl Sweatshirt - Grief/Chum/Hive
Childish Gambino - Sober/Sweatpants/3005
Flying Lotus - Never Catch Me
Shabazz Palaces - #Cake
Spoon - Do You
St. Vincent - Cheerleader
David Guetta - She Wolf
The Shins - It's Only Life
Oh of course
+Jake Peterson This totally reminded me of the Childish Gambino music videos.
+Jake Peterson Spoon is fricking amazing!
+Jake Peterson Isn't the video kind of copying Bat for Lashes - What's a girl to do
thank you
For every kid that roller skated in the seventies and eighties, here is your opus. Absolutely fantastic choreography and a great song too!
After all these years the song, the choreography, the cinematography is still otherworldly!
I come here every now and then to watch it as well as skate to it.
WHEN LIFE GOES DOWNHILL, put on rollerskates bitch!!!!!!
now this is my watsapp profile😃
but then life goes down faster with roller skates
Lol
l
that's the point son, if you're getting fucked at least make it on your own terms
This is representative of all that is good and right in the world. The fact that someone hears this music, and thinks "hmm, this jam reminds me of three insanely hot byitches fucking rollerskating down some random highway until they encounter some hipster that crashed his car into a stuffed deer but still had the sand to sing some slow groove but then they be like 'naw, let's just turn around and go back from whence we came' so they just skate the fuck back and that's that. I'm glad I live in that world.
+Chris Allen Well said, This song makes feel all is right as well. This is amazing and fills the soul indeed Brother.
+Melanin Awakened people the ability to pair things properly. Like this song w this video. That's talent. I wish I had that. Like people who can decorate a room and it jives.
+Chris Allen ...Damnnnnnnnnnn, the award for CZcams rant of the year goes to...
That was impressive, and not a comma in sight.
+SuperThumpasaurus there is one comma, haha right after naw.
perfect description to a T.
CANNOT BELIEVE I ALLOWED MYSELF TO FORGET THIS GROOVE FOR THIS LONG...
I love this song. It has the unique ability of transferring me to a completely different state of mind. The music video is amazing too
This video is proof positive that you don't have to be almost naked, to be sexy af.
***** compared to a video like Anaconda.(and the millions out there like it) They aren't even CLOSE to naked
truee
Unfortunately, Rhiana can't skate this good, so......
Yeah, because they're more than half naked
***** To point out how every "top 10" female singer has to be half naked in their videos. Literally all you had to do was read the other ones. What the fuck is the point of yours?
Beautiful women aside, the choreography, the concept, the execution, and the compatibility with the song make this an amazing music video.👍👍
So basically just the women then?
Grace Sings brilliant comment
this guy just copied "what's a girl to do" bat for lashes video. He stole the whole idea only changed bikes to skate and added hot girls so he could sell it easier.
You can say it is... - Sans look - gold.
+Jason P Bradley AMAZEBALLS! VIDEO IS BANGING 💥 💥
I instantly was like, oh yes, I like this! Then I was proud of seeing skaters out there taking it to a whole new level. Choreographer, hats off. Bad ass.
I love everything about this. The quiet slow sound of his voice. The bluesy tunes. The visuals of the video. Dancing roller girls with giant gold hoop earrings. ..& is that a Buick Electra? Icing on this beautiful Cake! I just collected all of Chet Fakers Albums in my Pandora! I will now begin my obsession.
A kid recommended this song at a Halloween party last night and no one seemed to care or like it. This song was so good I couldn't stop bopping my head to it. I said out loud that this was one of the best songs I've heard in a while and the kid that recommended it couldn't stop smiling. I don't know. Just felt like telling a little story.
Update (Feb, 9 2023): Since the new semester at my school started, I have a class with the kid in the story. We're good friends and I had a great night with him. We went to an antique shop, got a funny chain, went to a ramen place, went to his house, etc. Learned a lot about him. He has a dope history and is a pro at the yoyo, lol. He's a dope kid.
Update #2 (April 10, 2023): We hang out a lot and we're great friends. Being around him is fun and I always have a good time. Last night we visited some abandoned places and I even got a picture of him sitting on top of a train, lol. I go over to his place a lot and I met his mom and her boyfriend. I even drew something for his mom. I like to draw a lot, lol.
Update #3 (April 27, 2023): We consider each other close friends and he's always down to hang out if he's not busy. Great guy. Great music taste as well, lol. He put me on to some other songs that are in my playlist.
Update #4 (June 8, 2023): We are good friends and hanging out every week. Sometimes multiple times a week. He recently took me to a lake to swim by the name of Hidden Beach. Or at least it used to be called that. It was super fun and he's down to take me again sometime. He's actually coming to pick me up so we can hang out right now, lol. He also got me into System Of A Down. They're pretty cool, lol.
Update #5 (July 8, 2023): He goes to Alaska every summer and it's currently Summer here in Minnesota. I'm not able to hang out with him but I can't wait for him to get back. A little update on me tho. I just got a job and get paid well which means me and him could do a lot of more things. Now I just need to start learning how to drive, lol. I'll update more when he gets back.
Update #6 (September 20, 2023): He got back from Alaska and two days after him getting back, I went to the Renaissance Festival with him, his mom and her boyfriend. They're all amazing people. I wasn't gonna dress up but his mom made me a wizard robe because she finds scraps and a bunch of other stuff and makes clothes out of it. She did an amazing job. I was there as a dark wizard, my good buddy was an executioner, his mom was a peasent herbalist, and her boyfriend was a peasent. They all looked super cool and did a great job. They missed my birthday and bought me a $190 fountain pen because I love writing and I write in cursive. Thay really did not have to do that and I told them that but they almost insisted on getting me something. I've never felt so loved by another family. Everything I receive from them I treasure and will always keep. They're wonderful people. The Renaissance Festival was really fun and I wore big rings as apart of my costume and some girl said they were cute so that was pretty nice, lol. We even got pizza afterwards. 😭
Update #7 (October 3, 2023): Last Friday, we hung out after school and we ended up going to some hippie party. Because my friend and his fam are hippies lol. I'm getring closer with his mom's bf and I'm starting to feel like a part of the family now. He even said that I'm always welcome. Makes me feel loved. So we were at this hippie party and there was this cool drum circle and some people were dancing and this dude had these light up balls on a string and he twirled them around and it looked super cool. After that, we were driving back to his house so he could drop me off at mine because he didn't bring his car and we got a flat tire 😭 It was raining kinda hard but we all didn't heaitate to get out and fix up the tire lol. Took like 30 mins. We all kinda bonded over that lol. Overall it was an adventurous night and it was pretty cool. More updates to come hopefully lol.
Update #8 (October 29, 2023): I had weight loss surgery and am in recovery right now. All's goong good. But before that, I had to fast a little and him and his mom were doing it with me. They really didn't need to but they did. I've never felt so loved by a family. He visits me from time to time which is really nice. I can't eat anything for another week and he's been there fir me as well as some other friends. More updates to come.
Update #9 (Dec 20, 2023): Ah man. Things are still super good. Recently me, him, his mom and her boyfriend started our own little band and we've had like two jam sessions so far. It was really fun and I found out I'm good at making up like punk and metal bass lines on the spot. These jam sessions are truly bringing out all of the talent we have within ourselves. I've never been so glad to have a friend in my life.
Update #10 (January 28, 2024): Me and him have come so far together. Recently, we've gotten on facetime and he's helping me get into the habit of working out and is helping me better myself. I'm thinking of maybe making a little vlog on CZcams to document our days when we hang out and what it's like. I'll have to get his permission to do that though, lol. Stay tuned for more updates!
Update #11 (Mar 22, 2024): Eze has gotten me into the habit of doing small workouts and I can feel myself getting stronger. I love that guy and he's such a great friend. He's helped me through so much. Just the other day we hung out and went to thrift stores looking for jackets to put patches on and stuff because his amazing mother said she'd make me a custom jacket with patches and all that cuz I love that stuff and always wanted something like it. Also, we both love a song called "My Favorite Monster" by Rotem Sivan. We are the only two likes on it and it's very underrated. Check it out if y'all can.
Awesome
Well on the bright side, at least two people at that party had good taste.
I liked the little story.
Do you and him like each other? Cute story... Thank you
@@Katiekay. they said “kid” so i don’t think it’s like that, very cute though
Soooo this is actually an allegory of the sirens from greek mythology (not the fates). Hiro Murai, director of the music video, had mentioned to the actress Candice Heiden (the one in the middle) that her inspiration was to be of the sirens of the sea coming out from the dark. Here we have a case in which they lead a man to his death, similar to how some distracted while driving by beautiful girls would fail to notice a deer in the road. The deer is present to enforce the idea of "a deer in the headlights," in which the driver is stuck in the trance of the sirens. He has crashed and is implied to be dead, the sirens leave the scene. Do with that as you may in interpreting it through toxic and dangerous relationships.
why four bullet holes in the windshield?
I don't care. I am here for the legs.
@@Deltaworks23 Then they have come for your soul
You drop this bombshell on me, while literally after watching this IDK how many times, I finally realize what the deer & crash car represent? Ha! Good stuff, and do you know if this is all one shot, as well??
@@johrathbun Yeah it is one shot!!! You should really watch the video about the making of the video. Its beautiful!
I could watch these women skate all day. This video totally inspired me to get roller skates and practice until I can skate like this.
Incredible timing...respect for the rythme of soul
I could watch this over and over. Having the sirens as skaters is genius. So fluid, so beautiful. Hiro Murai is such a gifted director.
Agreed 💯
so its official, like guys on record saying "yeah this is an allegory for Ulysses and his trial with the sirens?"
cuz i see something a bit different though no less mythological, which i find interesting on its own
i also have a lot of respect for the fact it was done in two shots
@@sufferhead6943 I can't speak for @wrongfootmcgee9993, but I definitely first thought of the 3 Moirai -- the three fates who determine life and death.
@@wrongfootmcgeeit was not done in two shots. The skating took all night to film in a deserted old highway in Acton CA. And yes…sirens.
There us a video somewhere (Indy Jamma Jones channel) with the awesome professional skater in the middle. Sorry I'm blanking on her name. She is with LA Roller Girls explaining the whole thing back when this video was released.
@@AnnLeiSoCal Candice Heiden :)
I'm just happy to see the deer is ok
Lenext Owens *deer. That's the plural.
You right
Errr ... an what's the singular for deer???
I am also happy to see that the deer is ok and hope that deer, everywhere, are equally ok. This sentiment also extends to sheep and fish ...
MrLeZek deer is both singular and plural. There was 1 deer or 5 deer..
Discovered this music video back in 2016 . I keep going back to it to calm me whenever I read something on the internet that pisses me off . This music video is aesthetically entrancing . Skating a Dark Arizona Highway following a car going what ? 10 an hour ? Maybe 15? It’s just lovely . The road was recently paved because the yellow lines look new . Excellent excellent calming piece of video .
This Is one of the most Fly videos ever, so dope, beautifully shot, love this song
OMG what a video clip...
it's really interesting
+Roter Kreis i can't see where
***** wow so freundlich :) warum denn das?
well, that escalated quickly..
Hardly. Why don't you check the Published date for the video you are so poorly trying to defend. Nice try though. You get an "A" for effort. And if you are referring to the actual song, sorry, but I don't hear the similarities.
these girls rock..
... and roll
hahahaha +1
+moXon460 Good one! :)
+AlienKingdom HD oh my gosh… brother?
+Ana Tá Bem Alien my brooooother
thank you to this masterpiece for inspiring Jean-Marc Vallée to include roller skating into Sharp Objects, it wouldn't be as creepily lovable as it is without this.
I've heard this song (and watched the video) about 6 months ago for the first time. I don't know how much time I relistened and rewatched it. Masterpiece! And now I want to dance on the rollerskates.)))
Damn! Makes me want to buy a pair of roller skates!!
what the fuck
This is how I imagine every sonic employee going to work
Barkeroni LOL
Barkeroni thats how we be
Barkeroni NICE
Barkeroni I work at Sonic. Sadly we don't....I wish!!!!!!!!!!! lolz
Emilee Ragsdale If you wish, then you don't you do it?
This song and video inspired me to want to roller skate 🛼 I finally got some skates this year and the song has been healing my heart since it came out 🥲
Who’s here 2024?
March✌️
Me
Meee!!! 🙆🏿♀️💕
Aquii 😅
still here
This video passes so quickly. It's just mesmerizing the way they move.
this is the reason I asked for (and recieved) roller skates for christmas
yup!!!
Lydian Quinn same here!
what skates did you get? artistic? derby? i've got Rock GT-50 skates for roller derby :) also i hella nerd out over different skates yikes
Lool legend!
Lydian Quinn yimigutierre
Yimo
This has to be one of the best music videos I’ve ever seen
I agree, i cant stop watching it. Its mesmerizing!
Still the same impact we initially felt, this will never get old...
I have got to get a body like theirs, and I have to learn to do this.
yesss.
Actually you have to be yourself and if you are trying to be someone you arent and youre not enjoying yourself , youre doing it wrong. ;) ( but yeah they are good )
I love your comment. You're sweet. Petar Tomek
Actually, she's talking about improving her, and it's nothing wrong with that. Stop trying to get into her pants let her get some exercise you freak.
Hhahhahahh
Chill man
I've watched this 37 times and have concluded that this is pure genus. Its so revolutionary it borders on magic. It just hits the notes spot on.
Over the years I’d say more then 37 times, but yeah good sound and clip is mesmerizing ❤
No one believes that you've only watched this 37 times ;)
Still the most beautiful musical video. I’m straight and I’m hypnotized. Skating Sirens.
I've had at Roundhouse London last Friday 17th, and he opened the show with this song. It was SUPERB.
I am 51 years old and assume all those people who comment "music is not as good as it used to be" on other clips obviously only listen to mainstream radio and are missing out on all the great tracks like this!
I'm 60 and totally agree !
This has almost 140 million views, how is that not mainstream.
Legend!
absolutely mental
hey ,steam i am 65 years old and for the 1st time wish i was 30
If I was driving down a long dark highway and three chicks just broke into Rollerblade choreography behind me I wouldn't even be mad.
*rollerSKATE!
I'm litterally shidding and crying right now. So many memories, all left in the past. It's time to remember them....
Arguably the best new song I have heard in a while. First time watching the video, and good heavens these three women are good.
One of the greatest concepts to a music video I've ever seen. The dark road outside of town. Choreography. On point
2:24 this part is wild. it looks like they are just floating around. Not moving forward at all. So crazy.
This makes me wanna roller skate so bad so graceful I love it
Hey there! My name is Louis and I'm a disabled vet from Detroit and had recently gone thru a hard time. Your music.. like always.. helped me get thru it as well as pushed me to be a better musician. I have a new song Leaking I just put on here that you all were a major influence on, and I'd love it if you could take 4 minutes out of your day to hear it. Thank you for everything!
Also someone said that some of the singing kinda sounds like you which was a kickass compliment!
New lyric video for it on here :)
The other video had shit quality lol
From the Director
I think people are surprised to hear that there is almost no post-work involved in this video. All of the skating and camera moves were done practically by driving down the same stretch of road 30 times. Post consisted of picking a few takes and stitching them together at transition points. I think there’re total of 4 shots combined together for the final video.
The shoot itself was a lot of driving back and forth in the middle of nowhere, while making sure there weren’t any rocks that the girls could trip on. Our choreographer Ryan Heffington (who is incredible by the way) was on the back of the car yelling the count over a megaphone each take. It was a surreal scene. It was really in the middle of nowhere, so I think we scared a lot of people who happen to drive by us.
I'm 50 years old and have watched tons of videos and combined with the music it was pure art. One I will place at the top of my top 10 best videos hands down.
It really doesnt look like they are actually skating on the road. Im thinking they did it somewhere else and edited it to appear as if they were on a road.
Chessa Sheppard - dude I thought the same thing, though the girls were skating infront of a green screen.
It's actually amazing how the girls don't cast shadows on the road (thru they cast on each other). Anyhow, very nice job.
TaVarga That's because the light they used is placed at the bottom tilted up.
They can skate better than i can walk on my two feet :(
Radses A. 😂😂
Just like my gf. But she still the best.
Radses A. That's funny 😂
That is so true .I always fall :(
My girlfriend is the one in the middle :P She sent me to this video to see the work she did.
Props to the girls on skates. For this gorgeous video choreography. Damn, they make it look ez.
I found this song so many years ago. And here I am back to watch it again. This is absolutely mesmerizing! So fluid and beautifully done! It’s like the purest form of magic. Just Wow 🤯
I just discovered this tonight and I’m in loooove
i could watch this forever
incredible how much i just fell in love with this song by these 3 beautiful talented ladies just pulling me in... had to listen to it twice to hear what he was actually saying lol
Couldn't agree more! So good in so many ways!
I totally agree with u
Same here!!!!
Mesmerizing.
Same here :-)
Still bumpin' to this in '23. Good stuff! 🫶🏻
They should produce a 8h long video of this!! I could listen to this all day
The fact that Chet appears in his own video for only 18secs is pretty gangsta :)
He was watching the girls.
That's more than Sia in her entire career lol
They look like mermaids...I was entirely hypnotzed!...And the sound track...Stunning!
Mesmerizing journey with the feeling of never ending love .
...they are valkyrie...
Heeyyyyyyy, Auuuuuuustttttteeeexq
Damn ........just perfect. When a video and a song come together like this its a beautiful thing. And those skater ladies are electric.
A heart will swell before it's hardened,,,,,a physical kiss is NOTHING with out it. 🥺
I know this has to be a stupid question but, is this even real? These girls make it look so graceful and effortless I'd honestly believe it if someone told me that they were floating above the ground the whole time
+Anthony Salvino they could be doing the roller skate since they're kids.
All 3 of them are in the pro rollerskating scene I believe.
+TheDeadman419 They do it in the rink on a smooth surface and it is edited for video
+TheDeadman419 they probably practice like crazy, when you get the hang of skates, they become your second feet, it took me 3 years to flow properly on my skates white jamskating... they are graceful as hell and fluid as fuck though like damn....
yeah of course they do that, I also do that to, if u start since young age u become pretty good at it, my mum was a national champion in my country, and those moves are just basics of roller skating 😋
This video is mesmerizing. Flawless edits, choreography, timing and concept. Can't stop watching it. Perfect match for the song!
Intelligent comment, thank you
Flawless! Flawless! Editing...
Amanda Brown That is intelligence? Lmao
Yeah. Reminds me of the semi-recent "Hideaway" video by Kiesza.
Still one of the most amazing videos. Those ladies are more than talented.
This is the kinda song you can close your eyes and listen.
Green Jacket changed my life.

yeah holy shit she got bombed in egypt and her boyfriend died
***** wtf? what are your sources?
+Kaonashin some gofund me website thingy. I really hope it's a scam
@natn0 When I read your comment I couldn't even watch the video anymore. I'm really upset. I hope she's okay.
I've been coming back to this forever. This is one of the best music videos of all time
So many years laters , and its still amazing
Coming from some of the roller skater generation,,,
Killer video.
Priceless.
Back again
I wonder if the 3 ladies represent the 3 parcae of the roman religion that define the human destiny. The fabric of this particular life they came to end would be symbolised by the central line on which they danse around.
further more we can notice that each parca is quite different: one older, one middle and one younger for the past, the present and the future.
So the videoclip show the death of a human that is therefore visited by the 3 parcae since is past present end future end here on this road.
What do you think of this interpretation? (I read no article about the artist, the realisator or anything).
Daaaaayam. Mind-blown.
probably not
Or maybe is about three hot chicks in roller skates, although I like your version better.
Just three woman trying to make your penis erected just to keep you listening to this. End of the topic.

Then why the accident?
For some reason, every time I watch this it makes me feel awake, free, almost as though I can breathe fresh air again after a long time. Like the complete opposite of suffocating... Strange but wonderfully refreshing
la re vivia
Yeah, like when you were, well when I was younger, not a kid, but old enough to be out all night, but hadn't started partying too hard yet, and you're out with your friends, and it feels like sleep isn't even a necessity you need in your life, you're just full of energy and the summer night air is intoxicating with the smell of no responsibilities and endless potential!!
its probably the women roller skating through the night
@@sunshynff same to me
Agree
whoever choreographed this is a genius
The person who directed this (Hiro Murai) has done some amazing work like Some of the best episodes of Atalanta, Mr and Mrs Smith as well as other provocative music Videos such as this one.
to be honest .... how fuckin cool is this video ? :)
Probably someone in front of them on skates.
Vlad Musteata not everything you don't know how to shoot is done on a green screen. The director of this music video, Hiro Murai found these three girls who could skate and dance. They shot it on an empty highway in Acton, California at night. Wonder if you would be able to pull off something like this on a "green screen" -_-
Poetry in motion! Looks like they found a highway in California not bumper-to-bumper with traffic or littered with those reflective 'warts.'
RAKUN6 So fucking cool
RAKUN6 it's dece
The woman in green KILLS it. Best dancer here, hands down. She moves flawlessly.
Candice Heiden is the blonde
She's not dancing any longer due to injuries from being bombed in Egypt. Her bf died in that bombing. Some fucked up shit.
@@UnopinionatedBystander2393 Not really fucked up because they were stupid enough to think that taking an extreme vacay to a 'war time' area was a really awesome idea! And they paid for their dumbassery dearly. After all, choices have consequences, especially so for idiots.
KILLER track, video, performance.
Top marks all around!!
amazing how Candice avoids the reflectors even when she's skating backwards. what a pro.
