Lyrics:
I don't wanna talk about it
I don't wanna talk about it
I don't wanna talk about it
I don't wanna talk about it
Oh-oh oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
We were young and drinking in the park
There was nowhere else to go
And you said you always had my back
Oh, but how were we to know?
That these are the days that bind you
Together, forever
And these little things define you
Forever, forever
All this bad blood here
Won't you let it dry?
It's been cold for years
Won't you let it lie?
Oh-oh oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
If we're only ever looking back
We will drive ourselves insane
As the friendship goes, resentment grows
We will walk our different ways
But those are the days that bind us
Together, forever
And those little things define us
Forever, forever
All this bad blood here
Won't you let it dry?
It's been cold for years
Won't you let it lie?
I don't wanna hear about the bad blood anymore
I don't wanna hear you talk about it anymore
I don't wanna hear about the bad blood anymore
I don't wanna hear you talk about it anymore
All this bad blood here
Won't you let it dry?
It's been cold for years
Won't you let it lie?
Oh-oh oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

It has taken me three fucking years to realise the sounds at the start is actually a voice saying 'I don't wanna talk about it' and not just beat box sounds. I can't digest this.

seriously? I never would've known that unless you pointed it out! So cool
Mina S me too
I can't hear it though?
Amy McCarthy My mind is now blown
I really like the actress they chose for this music video. She's got this real serious edge to her in how she behaves and her long piercing stares. She looks like a character you'd see in a horror or supernatural show/film.
She's actually a model! ☺️

Facts
Theory: The Girl and The Boy were estranged siblings, not ex-lovers. That's why she still has a key to his house, that's why no one's cleaned out the fridge, or moved the dead flowers from the porch, or is questioning her increasingly unhinged behavior. She has a key because she lives there, or is the only other person with rights to access the house, and she's isolated herself from everyone they knew.
The siblings escaped an abusive childhood, hence the lyrics about being young and alone, nowhere else to go, having each other's backs, being bound together, etc. But their relationship is has now become toxic, with The Girl unable to move on and let go of their traumatic past, while The Boy has begun to heal and move forward. He doesn't want it to be just "us against the world" anymore. He is forming friendships and relationships with others, and wants her to do the same ("all this bad blood here, won't you let it dry?/I don't wanna talk about the bad blood anymore/I don't want to hear you talk about it anymore/if we keep looking back, we'll drive ourselves insane," etc). But she won't, or cant, and her brother is beginning to distance himself from her as a result. This distance is actually healthy for him, but for her, it's devastating. He is the only person she has any kind of meaningful relationship with.
The siblings relationship degenerates to the point they aren't speaking, or are barely speaking. Then one day, her brother is at the beach, maybe messing around with friends, and ends up falling into the water and vanishing, obviously drowning, but his body is never recovered. His sister, unable to bear the loss and already crippled with unaddressed trauma, falls into psychotic depression. She isolates herself in their house, eating his food, wearing his clothes, trying desperately to feel close to him again. She blames his friends for leading him away and driving a wedge between them, hence she won't open the door to receive their flowers. In her mind, he wouldn't have died if he hadn't been out with them. Alone and mentally ill, she eventually becomes so sick she gathers his possessions and burns them as a makeshift funeral for them both, then walks into the sea, drowning herself on the same beach where her brother was last seen.
Makes me tear up knowing the kind of suffering so many people go through. Must be awful.:(
Might just be a theory , but a damn good one
I'm sure she had good reason to break into his house and eat his rotten food, but the fact that she just left the refrigerator door open is completely uncalled for.
LOL
Maybe the air conditioning was on the fritz and she was trying to cool down a bit...
@@jamesvanwinkle3951 yeah let that bad boy defrost typa shit
🤣 🤣
Yeah.. I'd hate for the food to rot 💀
Better than Taylor Swift.
Why do you have to compare? They're both great singers.Just because the title of the songs are the same doesn't mean that you can blame taylor like that i'm not commenting to tell that your opinion is wrong but please respect the singer;)
^ here we go..
Ur a joke kid
Harvey Parsons yes, if you're not into Taylor Swift's music.
Harvey Parsons Spot on. Taylor Swift's music of late is like diluted water
This song paints a well defined picture of guilt, shame, resentment, grudges & bitterness. It also offers a solution of letting it go & setting it free. By doing so it does not weigh on you anymore. The intense lyrics have struck a chord in millions. GR8 Song!
If people could let go, this song wouldn't exist.
@@mclovin2155 This song exists because people can let it go. If it wasn't possible, then there would be no point in it's message. That doesn't mean it's easy to do though.
This is one of those songs that radio overplays and leads to people hating it, but coming back to it in 2020 its a fantastic song
Trueeeee
I've officially deemed Bastille as one of those bands that I just won't try to understand the music videos anymore
I KNOW RIGHT?
Pretty sure it's about a a girl who killed that guy and then lives in his house. lol @ me.
yup pretty much
I think its about something bad he did that is haunting him.
Hard telling now days :0P
If i got famous doing music, i'd just make a totally random music video without any real meaning and watch as people try to rack their brains trying to figure it out.
It's an art form too! A lot of times videos really are like that, but one of the most interesting things about making abstract art is finding out what different people see in it.
you can do that stuff with garageband. :)
Shots - imagine dragons
Mega Minx i love it when people try to sound sophisticated online :3 so funny talking about how music is art XD its not art. 1# its entertainment 2# if anything its emotion thats all you need to know.
You evil person no just kidding XD
8 years later I'm here again. Goosebumps.
Some songs work like a key for unlocking memories.
When you hear it, you feel yourself alive in the memory again
As the friendship goes, resentment grows,We will walk our different ways...
Lyrics; for whoever needs them!
I think that this video is more of a metaphor for Dan's relationship with his girlfriend. Maybe he didn't actually fall in the lake. This is just her way of envisioning his departure from her life. The house represents her past with him. When she enters it, she is revisiting her memories with him. Based on the name of the song, they probably split up because of an argument or something, hence the lyrics "these little things define us forever." Whatever small thing they fought over defined the rest of their relationship. It left them with a bad memory. Yet, he wants this "bad blood" to dry so that they can only keep the good memories. The TV news report was probably her own mind, wishing and longing for him back, or replaying the bad fight they had. As someone mentioned in another comment, the rotten food represents the "bad blood", being the bad memories. When she goes to throw herself in the lake, I think that she is finally cleaning herself from the bad blood. Dan was doing the same thing, and at this point they forgive each other, and towards the end they find each other again. I don't know if this theory is right or not but I like to think of it this way!
Wow this is great thank you🙏
@@duvalj1353 Thanks!
For some reason, I loved playing videogames with this song playing in the background

Okay but looking at this comment now with how the Bastille music videos evolved into people going into a virtual reality while the songs are playing? Wild

Thanks
Ty
Just what I was looking for. Thanks.
so...the guy (dan) drowned at sea. either by accident or his girlfriend drowned him/let him die. lets say she drowned him. she is unable to let go of what she did to him and is permanently stuck in the past (which is presumably where the 'bad blood' theme ties in- she hasn't had closure and so there is still 'bad blood') and this is shown through the rotting fruit, dead flowers and the way he is playing on a loop on the tv. he haunts her because of her guilt, which is shown when he appears in her living room, and possibly the red flashing lights symbolise the police and danger and things similar to that. then at the end, she collects all of the physical memories of him and i'm assuming drowns herself? because she is unable to live with the guilt of what happened and this is her way of finally letting go of the 'bad blood'. or maybe not. just my theory.
Was thinking this, the visions of him in the room, putting his clothes on, the rotten food and dead flowers - she can't let go of what happened to him. "I don't want to hear about the bad blood anymore" could be like she's sick of it being in her head and can't get it out - like telling herself she doesn't want to think about it any more, hence probably drowning herself at the end.
Wow If never looked into this that way
Props to you
All the little things now add up
Thanks
Thank You. I've been trying to figure out this video.That makes sense.
never really understood this but nice theory.
just enjoy the music..
It makes me feel weird that this came into my head and I wanted to hear it again and now it’s 10 years old ..
nice taste

Bastille feeds my soul
As sad as their songs may seem, they are full of life, redemption and hope. Had the pleasure of seeing them in concert and they put on an incredible show. 🙌👌😎
Dan's voice is transcendent
couldn't agree more
I missed that time when 'Bad Blood' used to refer to this...

ummmmm k...
+Mathilde List not her fault she named her song bad blood. not her fault her song was more well known than this.
no matter how happy I am, Bastille's songs will always make me feel empty inside 😂
same
same
omg yes same here
although I wasn't a big fan of them, Blue October is the same way. Audible Sadness.
omg do you not understand *****
this song is so underrated that is all i have to say.
You know that its a good song when you dont want it to end
I think that the video was about a girl who's guardian (probably older brother) drowned but she couldn't accept it (explaining the missing person posters). She is depressed and so won't leave the house (or she may be awaiting her brother's return) explaining the rotten food (she refuses to leave to get new food, either because she'll miss her brother coming back or she can't bring herself to). She is haunted by the faint idea he died (explaining the disappearing masked man). She is eventually hit by reality and when she realises that he died, she sets fire to his things and drowns herself, so she'll be with him again (also, we see her wearing what appears to be her brother's clothes throughout most of the video)
Aside from the relation to the name of the song, this explanation makes a ton of sense. Wow.
The flowers... Her bf
actually the story is that she killed him. so he haunts her and she can't escape what she's done, so in the end she decides to kill herself
alexia deleon oh ok :-) thanks for telling me
+theunusualhuman +alexia deleon Wow Those A Both Dark. Dark, Dark Horse (Illuminati Music Plays) Dark Horse By Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift Bad Blood, Bastille Bad Blood! HUH D:
It sounds to me that the song is about not being able to let go of the past and her friend dying. It ate her up inside, like she kept thinking about it, ruminating the pain like eating rotten food instead of fresh food, which are the new experiences she could have in life that are nourishing.
Like your coments
FINALLY...somebody understands this song/video. She's consumed by the thoughts that haunt her about their relationship. Whether he is dead or just gone is irrelevant. She holds the mementos of him, letting that consume her. The TV playing a time that she remembers him and the setting. Him drowning is her drowning, in her mind. Her escape, is to have her physical match her mental. She tries hold onto things to ease the pain that he's still around, ie the meal..the she probably planned on eating with him. To eat that, to dull the pain. The end, is her either faux realizing that she's moved on by discarding the remnants of the past, or that she's moved on, but still stuck in the prison of drowning in the waves of her own mind. Awesome video.
Brian Hertsenberg Sir, that comment was absolutely........MIND BLOWING. You made me understand the video MUCH better.
Alexandra Lehman
Just my take, without the use of illicit drugs :) Thanks! It's just "art". It speaks to you in your own way. Explanations make it more comfy..and this shouldn't be. It's unsettling how the mind works and imprisons you. It's hard to name an emotion that has no name.

Goddammit Taylor Swift. Now I have to type in Bad Blood Bastille to find this song
OldCrotchety lol
OldCrotchety 😂😂
lol relatable
I feel you 😂
The Power of taylor swift sis
Maybe he's not even in the water. She throws away a box of his stuff (and he's in the water) his jacket was in the box too. Maybe he died - she can't get over it and finally throws away his things when she has a nightmare (him in the ski mask)
Anyway- Bastille are genius for coming up with a crazy video that can be interpreted anyway
I was searching for Bad Blood by Taylor Swift on YT but found this masterpiece instead. Now one of my favourite songs, it's so good ❤️
I know right
Yep, Welcome to the club. Bastille will beat Taylor swift anyday. I hate how they released this song like 3/4 years before Taylor swift and yet she has the more popular song. This song needs more recognition. All Bastille songs do.
taylor swift is kind of boring in my opinion she just does some love songs
Bastille is defo one of the most underrated bands in the UK
EzactlyZ
I've been trying to find this song for a year. I thought I recognized the voice, but didn't remember any lyrics. I googled the closest thing I could remembered, and saw one by Bastille. I had guessed that might have been who sang it, and I was right. This song brings back very fond memories.
All of the imagery in this video is symbolic. Her wearing his clothes symbolizes her obsession over him. The dead food in the refrigerator and her eating it symbolizes that their past relationship is dead and in the past, her eating the rotten food symbolizes how unhealthy all of this is and how she is poisoning herself by refusing to let go of what they once had. The dead and dried flowers symbolizes the love that once flowed so naturally and freely between them and how it has completely dried up, there is nothing left outside of her feelings for him. The saying that repeats about bad blood refers to a fight that happened between them from the point of the break up on. She can't see that there is no possible future between them. It is obvious that acting the way that she is is toxic to her health and mental state yet she clings to it because she can't except that it is over. He no longer loves her. Her walking out of that house full of death and memories of him symbolizes her finally leaving her feelings in the past where they belong. And her throwing his stuff into the ocean symbolizes a death. Not a physical death but a spiritual one. She is throwing away and putting to rest all of the negativity that she has been holding onto all that time. She is letting go of him. The the images of both of them drowning at the end symbolizes how she has let go of their relationship and how she is no longer the woman who was held back him or her feelings for him.
Yep a woman will do that to you!
thanks for explaining i was confused
This is your interpretation but not a great one. She wasn’t drowning in the end…
Or, her boyfriend actually drowned and she couldn't live without him. You're looking too deeply.
This song is what i call real bad blood when my sister is listening to taylor swift
Lol, this is the best comment!! I understand u :`(
Exactly, Bastille is amazing
***** Everyone has their own opinion..
*****
TS' Bad Blood is meaninglessly written and composed
just a song and a mv for promotion
it's value is much less than Bastille's Bad Blood
Jodiejg76 Both of those songs are what they are, they share a name, both of them are Bad Blood, I personally do like this one a lot more because this is just more like my style of music, we should not call this "real bad blood" when Taylor Swift's Bad Blood should be seen on equal ground.
I find it quite funny how in light of Taylor Swift's song, if other people hear this song for the first time (and they don't bother to look at the year that it was released) they'll think its actually a response to Taylor Swift's song "Bad Blood". Lines like "All this Bad Blood here, won't you let it lie?" and "I don't want to hear about the Bad Blood anymore. I don't want to hear you talk about it anymore." are the perfect responses to Taylor Swift's song. Her song is about holding on to Bad Blood, Bastille's is about letting it go and moving on, because we can't change the past, but we can still move forward. You can make your own conclusion about the maturity level of each song.
Michelle Kaiser " You can make your own conclusion about the maturity level of each song." and each artist too
+Michelle Kaiser I love taylor swift but that song bad blood sucks in my opinion. its false feminism trash. but this song is good.
This song never gets old. ❤
She can come eat my expired food anytime she wants.
satisfiction lol
trying to explain how much i love this song , is like trying to explain what water tastes like !!!
watery
Well damn
Jack Novak Nailed it
I agree!!!
I was singing this song at my friend's house and she asked what it was and I said Bad Blood and she went, "That's not how Bad Blood goes." And since I adore this song and know it by heart I got all defensive and we ended up getting into a small argument and she screamed, "Taylor Swift would be disappointed!" And I went, "What does Taylor Swift have to do with this?" And she goes, "She wrote the song!" And then I just laughed because I had forgotten about Taylor Swift having a song titled Bad Blood, as well.
...
I hate when people gets defensive
It's annoying
+Pootis Bird
Thanks for the opinion that literally no one asked for 👌🏻
same as you useless story that nobody wants
+Pootis Bird
Wow, okay, troll
Pootis Bird I asked! Now fuck offf!!
Listening to Bastille is like listening to the music beneath the ambitions, bluster and greed of mankind. That surface noise is usually overpowering and drowns out everything else but Bastille somehow captures the essence that runs beneath all human enterprise.
They’re so underrated. They deserve more attention than they get. The vocals are great and the lyrics are profound.
This girl could be a model. Those jaw lines for DAYS!
Lol she is!
Yo Taylor, I'm really happy for you, I'ma letchu finish but Bastille had the best Bad Blood of all time
It's not indie rock if it's not indie. Even so, this song marks a day in my life which is a prize to be had.
Gente, só um momento aqui, JÁ FAZEM 11 ANOS QUE FOI LANÇADA ESSA PEDRADA???? Eu to passada. Quem está assistindo em 2024??
I think I have my own idea of what might've happened. Watching the music video over for the third time, and hearing "as the friendship goes, the resentment grows" I immediately thought they were dating and maybe this guy cheated on her or something and she was heartbroken, in a blind rage she broke into his house, murdered him, and hid his body. And, as the days go by seeing his face everywhere, and knowing what happened to him she was wracked with guilt and that's when she tries killing herself. I got this idea because it's similar to what happened in a graphic novel "Anya's Ghost" Emily, the name of the ghost when she was alive, I believe dated this guy, and something happened and he ended up cheating on her and in her blind rage ended up killing them both, and dying herself by falling into a well, breaking her neck then dying from dehydration. So, this also leads me to believe this girl's resentment for the guy she loved was growing over time, maybe he'd been unfaithful to her many times and she finally got sick of his lies, she seems emotionless as well. As Emily did too, although Emily was crying. This girl, no emotions at all. Maybe, she didn't care. Just didn't want to be caught known as the girl who snapped and murdered her boyfriend.
ooorrrrrr it could be that they were friends or related, or dating, and he accidently drowned. then she breaks into his house, finds out, gets depressed,eats rotten food, hallucenates, and then kills herself. just another theroy :3
I'm sure that's EXACTLY how it happened.
Or It could be all coincidences.

oh oh, i know! It's a song
Illuminati Confirmed. Welcome Brother.
To all the Taylor Swift commenters:
"I don't wanna hear about the bad blood anymore"
"I don't wanna hear you talk about it anymore"
To all the repliers:
"If we're only ever looking back, we will drive ourselves insane"
"As the friendship goes, resentment grows, we will walk our different ways"

Their old songs are so much better
People need to stop sleeping on Bastille their music is too good!!!
Mitchell Kruszewski and why is that, eh?
I'm going to bed.
ben gray their music is fek good ok... leave him
This is so much better than Taylor's Bad Blood. This actually has a deeper meaning while Taylor's is the usual breakup/relationship fight song. I missed the days when this actually was on the first page when you search "Bad Blood".
I know right
Actually Swift's version is not about a relationship.
***** It's about her break up. Just her typical kind of song choice.
+Alyza Co It's about Katy Perry. Not everything in her songs is about relationships. But you wouldn't know that because you've already established your prejudiced opinion. I love this song but I also like Swift, so don't be so quick to assume.
***** I know it's not all about breakups. But all of her songs are mostly about breakups. If you heard Bad Blood the first time, you wouldn't know it would be about Katy Perry. Her songs are catchy, but they all almost have the same concept about breaking a relationship. Where are the songs that have a deeper meaning?
This remains as one of my favorite Bastille songs of all time.
...6 years have passed from this upload and i'm still typing on my search machines "Bastille - Bad Blood"....
My thoughts on the video:
They are siblings the bad blood is the guy he was probably a thief or something the sister used to love and respect him and they were happy but then the sister started to get annoyed that the brother kept getting in trouble with the police and stopped respecting him. the brother was dead to her the food is the rot in her heart and when the brother went missing she didn't care. Maybe she killed him
Oh and no matter how hard she tries to forget about him she still loves him
Interesting interpretation. For me, the amazing thing about this video was that I didn't analyze it at all -- which is unusual for me, since I usually "overthink" everything. It was like 3 mins of pure emotion.
The thing that really hit me was the drastic shift at 2:45 when she wakes up. Going from feeling disgust and fear to just pure, heavy sadness.
I think its her bf/ex bf bc of all the flower bouquets on her doorstep :3
BobtheAmazingly AwesomeUnicorn I think flowers are from people who are saying sorry about her loss
That makes sense too :D so would they have been living together then? It seems like the box she takes out is his things
Future GF: "Hey Arthur! Do you like Bad Blood?"
Me: "Why yes I do."
GF: "OMG, will you go out with me?"
Me: "Wait, which artist?"
GF: "Bastille"
Me: *thumbs up*

i used to be obsessed with this song when i was younger.. it still goes hard
I got this song stuck inside my head for years and just keeps coming back to me. I love this song.
I actually love that I don't understand what's happening in the video after watching it once.
Maybe I won't understand it if I watch it a hundred times.
But you know, we don't have to understand everything.
No it's about her brother/lover/friend who disappeared (although he drowned and is dead-most likely by suicide) and her life has now become like the waking dead because she can't let go of him signified by her hanging at the beginning of the video and eating rotten food. So at the end she finally decides to kill herself by taking his stuff and jumping into the ocean and as she's being swept away she sees everything he saw as he was also dying, as a cycle of letting go
Couldn't have said it better my self. Very nice explanation of the visuals.
i say lover
there is no girl, no lover. If you read into it, its about two brothers who were on their own (since the house was older and carried more warm colours, it was an older persons house. Likely the parents either left them or died, leaving the two with a grandparent who passed at some point) and the younger of which drowned the older in the ocean. The youngest refused to leave the house after the fact, which is why the food was rotten. The brother eventually gave into guilt and burnt his brothers belongings, ultimately throwing himself into the same ocean that he killed his brother in.
No lover, no boo hoo love story, just simple murder. Just simple suicide.
Its something you see done often in music.
Tobasco Cat You're completely wrong
I agree Jake sornson
10 years I haven't thought about this song. Suddenly out of nowhere I start singing it to myself while on my drive home. Couldn't even remember who sang it.
I listened to this so much when I was 13 omg I'm almost 20
2:03 how much did you pay that person to eat that!?!
Haha XD
Obviously not enough
It wasn't real.
scabbybuttcrack WTF
She didn't actually eat that stuff...
*Facepalm*
Incredible chorus. Everything mixed perfectly!
Exactly! Whenever the chorus comes in, it does something to me like like a little shot of morphine kicking in. It's amazing.
I'm still listening this song in 2019 :)))
Bro same. Glad original bastille songs are still listened too
Yup...same
2021, thank me later.
1:38
It's Tyler Joseph.
Snuwie No, it's not. It's just Dan Smith (Bastille's singer).
LeOeL Snuwie was referencing how Twenty One Pilots, more specifically the lead singer Tyler, wears ski masks in certain performances.
Thisnamestillsucks I know...
c:
LeOeL Then why correct OP?
THE FUCK EVEN WAS THAT FOOD THOUGH OH MY GOD IM SCARED
Jake English rotten
fireburn95rs
Rotten *WHAT* though??
Jake English that pink thing? looked like lychee, could just be potatoe or some shit
fireburn95rs "or some shit" I loved that.
idek it grosses me out 😖
i just cannot get enough of dan´s singing. him and sia would be a killer duo.
Just my theory: The girl in the beginning when she is holding on the tree, to me, means that she wants to forget (hanging self) but can’t let herself leave everything alone. The rotten food and dead flowers shows that she won’t let her past go away and she thinks of it almost replaying itself in a way. When she sees the red lights, it means danger, or somebody will know her secret. She is in the bathtub, almost like she feels like she is connecting with him in a way since they would both be in water. He is missing, so the flashing lights might mean that she had something to do with him being missing. And the words “all this bad blood won’t you let it dry” she doesn’t want to let go meaning that she in the sense “won’t let the bad blood dry”. She keeps messing with it, making herself feel guilty and seem like she is still with him even though he is gone. She goes in the water at the end to basically end what is happening, so she won’t feel the guilt any longer. I know it is long but it’s something lmao.
Well done 😄
I got all of that in a sense but you just explained it way clearer and captured some things I couldn’t quiet wrap my head around!! That’s Amazing!!! God bless!
Why is this below 3 other Bad Blood music videos??
This should have hundreds of millions of views...
Props to you if you're still jamming to this in 2016! their music has an impact on you for sure!
ikr i love these songs! :D

+Mrs. Mawaa download tubidy
YEP
This specific song reminds me of a certain someone. It's saddening but it brings this comforting feeling that hurts in a way that cannot be easily explained. I cant keep myself from coming back to it though.
Who the fuck drinks from the carton? Come on man, someone else might want some!
And then the rotten food? I think I'm gonna puke... xD
Tyler Cantrell IKR! I wanted some of whatever was in the carton... but not anymore.
Tyler Cantrell It reminded me of mayonnaise
xD I friken love mayonnaise
you adore jack daniel's??
3 words: 10 amazing years
I've had the biggest crush on this girl for ten years now.
This song has a special place in my heart
If u had,I had too
Same for me
I can't take your comment seriously with that fucking picture of buzz as your profile pic.
Walrus lmao
Same for me
swift´s bad blood does not hold a candle to this song nor video (overproduced crap as oppose to artistic weirdness)
Tried typing bad blood on youtube,have had to scroll for so long to reach them. :(
Taylor swift is absolute shit I hate all of her music, this song is so much better than hers.
***** I used to dislike Taylor Swift but now I hate her because of her song. Bastille only come up at the second page when we type Bad Blood on CZcams and that makes me soooo angry.
Demeka I agree so much
Pigeon I'm so glad a Pigeon agrees with me omg.
This gives me some crazy nostalgic feeling of a time I can’t pinpoint
Same with me, I used to hear this song every day for a few months and could never identify it. I subconsciously started to associate this song with that part of my life, and I managed to identify it tonight and the nostalgia is crazy.
It's 2020 and this song still hits hard in the feels! Ah, as we get older it seems life just keeps driving. This to me is a true masterpiece! I hope someday my kids can enjoy this as I did.
Since I always get annoyed at people complaining that they don't get it, here's my interpretation:
The girl in this video is Dan's (the main singer and guy drowning) ex-girlfriend. Whether an educated guess, she is the murderer or just a crazed belief, she believes he has drowned, a fact obviously kept from the public who has still declared him "missing". Driven to insanity, either from guilt or grief (read into it as you choose), she goes around his house, wearing his clothes, eating his rotten food and such. She eventually wakes up from this, after seeing haunting images of his ex-boyfriend, revealing that this is in fact a dream, and that she has attempted drowning herself in a bathtub. Unable to cope, she collects various objects depicting her boyfriend in a box. Note the dead flowers, perhaps indicating she hasn't left the house for a few days, isolating herself in her depression and/or guilt. She eventually takes this box to the beach, in all likelihood the one, her boyfriend drowned in, burns the box on the shore, as she jumps in the water, undoubtedly a second suicide attempt.
Also, new thoughts. Entering the man's house, making herself feel at home, and most importantly the rotten food, suggest she probably is deluding herself into believe nothing has changed in the situation. When obviously, this house and also this relationship has fallen into disrepair. Perhaps it is this acknowledgement upon waking up that makes her realise how bad things are and prompt her second attempt.
The original Bad Blood
I should NOT have watched this while eating
Why
@@riddhiyandas902 rotten food in vid 🤢
Yea not a good idea Lol I actually did the same it was super gross
When you’re high af and don’t give a shit that your food expired last month 😭😭😭
@@vorarose thats NOT rotton food... its human organs-
2021 and this song is still a gem♦💓
Love the flow of the part that says "forever....foreveeer" :)
@@chinmaypotdar9358 Ye
Did anyone notice that she LEFT THE GODDAMN FRIDGE OPEN?!
i kinda went crazy there like dosnt it make an alarm?!?!?! i does for me...
Indie is too strong right now!
Yea, I know, I just consider the sound "indie".
***** indie is a genre of music, so i doesnt matter what label they're signed to:)
Alice Caple I think that Chad was using indie as in "independent record label" which I believe is where the sound we know and love came from. I don't know though, just guessing : ) Also, this song is just ugh. Amazing.
Cool tune finally decided to add it. I have my reasons, come from a pot full of it. #badblood
Anyone 2022 listing to this gem 💎
Here
Dan has a really unique voice.
anyone else creeped from the feet hanging at the start? i thought it was someone hanged, you know, like executed
Not executed, suicide
Oehe Carlops it can be both
True enough
That's what I thought too.
To jest na youtube 1,5 roku i tylko 6243801 wyświetleń?! Niedocenione dzieło...
i forgot about this song wow im so glad i remembered it today
Me too great times
Situations like this are actually more common then anyone would think lyrically atleast
does the idea of somebody sneaking into your house if you disappeared make anyone else feel kind of creeped out?
I think the idea is that they either lived together or were close enough that she had the key.
Liam Hay Idk the way she looks at the house in the beginning makes me think she's contemplating going inside a place she's unfamiliar with, then the way she looks in the window of the front door gives me the feeling she hopes no one is there so she doesn't get caught. Then there's the thing about her wearing the coat that looks like it might be the one he disappeared in... I think she found his body... because she went to the spot where it's obvious he drowned... so my conclusion.. she found his body.. took his personal effects... now she wants to try living his life...
In the lyrics it makes it seem more in Liam Hay 's favor. I have to agree with Liam.
Gia Barsimantov but nowadays how many music videos really make sense and go along with the actual song itself?
its called squatting. im more creeped out by them eating the rotten food...
I think the video...this is just my intake on the situation in the video.
The guy in the sea and the person we see in this video used to be good friends or possibly something closer (look at the lyrics and you'll see where I'm coming from), but then something went wrong...horribly wrong..and it is implied that the person we see in the video killed the guy we see in the sea (implied that he dumped the man's body in the sea).
She breaks into his house and takes over that domain, but begins to have thoughts about the crime (as she sees it on the news and keeps having flash backs about it) and it wears her down emotionally and mentally (which is why she ate rancid food and tried to drown herself in the bathtub), so she gets rid of her deceased friends things and burns them.
***** That was my own intake of what I believe happened in the video and in no way was my intake "wrong". Everyone is entitled to their own intakes and opinions, thank you very much. Have a nice day.
***** You're not getting it. I am taking about the video mostly and I know he wrote the song himself. Having a personal intake on what happens is not wrong at all, and you're actually in the wrong for trying to judge one's intake. I have better things to do than argue with somebody who doesn't get things. Have a nice day.
Rhiane Norman Do you think she might have commited suicide?
KomarinProductions I think so, yes. I mean she does jump in the same waters she dumped the guy in.
I've finally found a comment that gives the best logical explanation for this video. thank you.
Bad Blood is one of those euphoric songs that just brings you bliss and joy whenever it plays
_those harmonized echoes in the chorus_ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Song always brings back memories of my eighth grade best friend
My Theory:
Her brother dies and she doesn't want to let go. Seeing the rotten food, her wearing his clothes and the t.v. showing the missing persons report. She sees him at times b/c she feels as he's still there. Then she's in the bathtub and she realizes he's gone and she collects his things. She goes to where he died and she throws his things in the water then herself. As she's drowning she sees him where it's potrayed as he's dying all over again, bit with her.
*but
+Kat Jones In the music video for Flaws, I think that he washed on shore after this music video.
+Nathaniel Winfree thats right he doesnt die but she thinks he did
+Kat Jones No, I think he's dead in the Flaws music video. Because when the video ends, he simply drops down where he washed up.
+Kat Jones waw! that's the most coherent explanation I've ever heard about the video
Bastille is really metaphoric, and I think it's amazing! But then a ton of ignorant people come here and make ignorant statements and cause so much turmoil in the comments! Can we just stop and enjoy the incredible music?!
There's something that's so simple yet also so complex and meaningful about those lyrics that really hits deep if you can connect to it... deep
Danngg. The story in this video is intense! People who think the video is weird, you guys gotta think deeper!
don't think you're some kind of deep thinker. sometimes music videos are just random shit so the stoners would have a whole bunch of nothing to talk about
Elijah Sednev Maybe, but this video is sure as hell not one.
cherryblossom1289
Yea but it's still yucky with the rotten food LOL
Ram Stones True :p
This is better than Taylor Swift's Bad Blood every day of the week
I know
true
true.
YES :>
yup
