I hope your in a better place now I'm been in that energy for about 2 years now. But things are going to change i can feel it ... . .. reversing the retrograde
Even 5 years after discovering your music, I am still amazed how delicate and profound your compositions are. I put this on whenever I feel melancholic or when I wish to remember times of struggle and overcoming. Sincerely, thank you.
[Verse 1] Damned eye see Reading about how it's all falling apart Am I yours to own Feed me a biscuit and I will fetch you a bone When we're out of fuel With nothing left to loose [Pre-Chorus] And They say it's a matter of fact But I'm not naive enough To take it as a matter fact Is everything they needed [Chorus] Sure you've been having fun At my expense Time is a loaded gun and I'm on the fence Warm it up enough for me And I'll be your tool Paint me like a pedigree And I'll be your fool {Verse 2} Kill your friend Sadly I find I'm still alive at the end Did you taste their pain Spare me the crime untill it's time to pretend Feeling out of sort You pushed me over board [Pre-Chorus] They say it's a matter of fact But I'm not naive enough To take it as a matter fact Is everything they needed [Chorus] Sure you've been having fun At my expense Time is a loaded gun and I'm on the fence Warm it up enough for me And I'll be your tool Paint me like a pedigree And I'll be your fool
“Sure you've been having fun/ At my expense/ Time is a loaded gun and I'm on the fence”: North London-based singer-songwriter Chelou entertains some poetically dark and disturbing thoughts on his new track “Damned Eye See”. Inspired by newspaper headlines that convinced him that “shit's going south...", the song’s lyrics expresses a thoroughly jaded, pessimistic, and world-weary perspective: “For me, the track’s about all the doom and gloom we seem to be surrounded by at the moment in the news and on social media etc.” (Wonderland). There’s no space for politicking or sloganeering here, just a morose lamentation of the moral ambivalence and loneliness one has to cope with: ‘Kill your friend/ Sadly I find I'm still alive at the end/ Did you taste their pain/ Spare me the crime until it's time to pretend’. As with his viral hit “Halfway to Nowhere” earlier this year, however, there is a sliver of silver to counterpoint this grey cloud of introspective electronica. Chelou sampled the voice of his eight year old sister to lend a more innocent and optimistic foil to his cynicism, which is also contrasted with the song’s delicate guitar line and sparkly synths. In the accompanying music video, his animated protagonist undergoes several disorienting and traumatizing experiences, but arrives at a hard-won and well-earned solace at the very end." www.kurrentmusic.com/blogviewer.html?blog-guid=4ef04919-e4c9-4e00-8a75-16219e6471d0
Anyone know that scene from Perks of Being a Wallflower, where they drive through the tunnel, playing Heroes by David Bowie and Charlie says "I feel infinite"? That's what Chelou makes me feel like every. single. time.
that second verse is so good. i interpret it as no matter who you push away, friends, family, yourself, no matter what you're still alive and it's not gonna fix anything to self destruct. "killing your social life won't kill you until it does."
This is just a visual for unity in the universe, everything is good energy and bad energy there is balance and tranquillity once you find it in yourself
@@Oxooo41 Faut arrêter d'excuser tout le temps son anglais, ça fait pitoyable. Vos fautes d'anglais sont naturellement excusables et ne vont pas brûler les yeux de vos lecteurs. C'est normal d'en faire..
I hate that I’m only finding him years later. Fits every mellow mood. Some consider it dark but I felt good vybing to it while cleansing my house and ridding negative energies
hey you might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like Chelou 🙂they're a little different but i love both of these bands soooo much!! let me know what you think! ❤
Dope Lemon brought me here. Chelou expresses such smooth serenity. Instantly I feel like all my fears and concerns have never existed. So glad I found this beautiful song
This is the most unique song and clip. I still love it even if it's been 6 years from first listening... The matching of audio and video is just perfect. Thank you, Chelou. Love you ❤

Life is not fair and not unfair. It’s people who create and guide the world. This song is not better or worser compared to despacito. It’s in the eyes and ears of people. Sometimes 10 people can stay for 1billion as well. Is fame, money or numbers an indicator of how good someone is? I think these guys love and are happy as fuck with what they create with sound and visuals. That’s much more important and that’s what life is about in my opinion. So lay back bro and enjoy it. Everything else comes and goes by itself
This is one of their best tbh, and how it continues from that other video Don't hate on me, it's just that incredible feeling of consistency among other things. Really well developed music.
This is by far my Favorite😌 Hits so hard... the Goosebumps Are constant. Feels like it was written based on exactly how I’m feeling. Eye Opener for sure❤️
Moral of the story.. If you feel lost or out of place on this planet Just know You are it You’re apart of the whole goings on On this planet YOU BELONG!!!
In this music there floats a kind of mist suitable for dreams and gentle drifts. A climate of rediscovered peace that we sometimes feel without knowing exactly why during certain summer nights! these artists build a discourse of interiority, of breathing, which knows how to make room for silence.
I really love how you worded this. I read your comment three times over and I love the reference to the feeling on a summer night out of nowhere. Smart man. Don’t mean to be so curious but I am… may I ask what you do? You gave wonderful writing skills . Love this artist. Glad he was in my UA-cam algorithm . Definitely needs to be known more.
Hit this outta the park! Shrooming out to this now...makes sense... From beginning to resolve...back in the beautiful world...just lay back. Itll be okay

Chelou is one of those artists that feel like they’ve always been with you
chelou is soo underrated
Drugsaldentex x I agree, they really are underrated. 😒
which is good (for us, for now), so we can see him in tiny little clubs playing one foot away from our noses :)

[Verse 1]
Damned eye see
Reading about how it's all falling apart
Am I yours to own
Feed me a biscuit and I will fetch you a bone
When we're out of fuel
With nothing left to loose
[Pre-Chorus]
And They say it's a matter of fact
But I'm not naive enough
To take it as a matter fact
Is everything they needed
[Chorus]
Sure you've been having fun
At my expense
Time is a loaded gun and I'm on the fence
Warm it up enough for me
And I'll be your tool
Paint me like a pedigree
And I'll be your fool
{Verse 2}
Kill your friend
Sadly I find I'm still alive at the end
Did you taste their pain
Spare me the crime untill it's time to pretend
Feeling out of sort
You pushed me over board
[Pre-Chorus]
They say it's a matter of fact
But I'm not naive enough
To take it as a matter fact
Is everything they needed
[Chorus]
Sure you've been having fun
At my expense
Time is a loaded gun and I'm on the fence
Warm it up enough for me
And I'll be your tool
Paint me like a pedigree
And I'll be your fool
thanks

I just discovered them a few days ago too, instantly became like my fav artist. Had them on repeat constantly :) 👌🏻

Лайк за аву
thanks for that sis
This is the most beautiful song/video I've ever seen. So in love.
This is just a visual for unity in the universe, everything is good energy and bad energy there is balance and tranquillity once you find it in yourself
Art is unlimited to logic, structure, emotions , time, senses and thought.
Funny, because "chelou" is a slang word in french for "weird", "suspicious".
I'm French i Confirm ;) I discover This group because this name is funny in french and i really like what they do ... Sorry for my English :o
@@Oxooo41 Hm, maybe cause his french...bon bah belge pour ma part, j'excuse mon anglais ^^'
C'est tout aussi comme au Québec où on dit toujours louche. Chelou c'est du verlan au fait.
@@Oxooo41 Faut arrêter d'excuser tout le temps son anglais, ça fait pitoyable. Vos fautes d'anglais sont naturellement excusables et ne vont pas brûler les yeux de vos lecteurs. C'est normal d'en faire..
That makes perfect sense

We’re all friends here. Love you all ❤️

Love you too
Dope Lemon brought me here. Chelou expresses such smooth serenity. Instantly I feel like all my fears and concerns have never existed. So glad I found this beautiful song
Ditto
I can listen to this song over and over and over again. Makes me very emotional and I totally can relate.💫
This is one of the coolest songs I've ever heard in my life. I just cannot stop listening to it.
This is the most unique song and clip. I still love it even if it's been 6 years from first listening... The matching of audio and video is just perfect. Thank you, Chelou. Love you ❤
Just wow!!! This song makes me instantly happy. The colors, everything just beautiful.
One day chelou will be recognized as he deserve
Keep on making awesome songs friend!
be content in your life now . be it finite or infinite . its ok to be happy

Damned eye see
Reading about how it's all falling apart
Am I yours to own
Feed me a biscuit and I will fetch you a bone
When we're out of full
With nothing left to loose
They say it's a matter of fact
But I'm not naive enough
To take it as a matter fact
Is everything they needed
Sure you've been having fun
At my expense
Time is a loaded gun and I'm on the fence
Warme it up enough forme
And I'll be your tool
Pay me like a pedigree
And I'll be your fool
Kill your friend
Sadly I find I'm still alive at the end
Did you taste their pain
Spare me the crime untill it's time to pretend
Feeling out of sorts
You pushed me over board
They say…
Thank you
i feel high every time i listen to chelou..
I just want to feel that peaceful state of mind like he is feeling at 3:40. Just that
this band or singer idek deserves sooo much more credit they r sooo good. most ppl nowadays dont have good music taste im sorry
In tears. Beautiful.
their videos are always so freaking beautiful.
The music and animation are great on their own, but they work together to create something beautiful
I did a mushroom trip to this video and it is forever my favorite song.
Those first few notes are heavenly
rolled for the first time to this song. hit the chorus RIGHT when it kicked in. the music surrounded me, it was truly an out of body experience
Sounds intense
LOVE THIS SONG!!! 🥰
WOULD BE PERFECT FOR LIFE IS STRANGE SERIES.... 🤞
look at this dude. finding happiness in the senselessness......... i wish i were him.
i 'm in love with chelou
I gotta say, I crave the people in these comment sections on music like this. Such happiness and positive energy.
This gives me that childhood wonder vibe and I love it
I love you guys and how you express everything!!!!! Like I'm looking at my life!❤
always good to come home. Give me that last ten seconds for the rest of my life....
Everytime I've been crying all night from heartbreak I come back to this song. It somehow has something calming and comfortable.
☝️❤
This song is vibe in its purest form I swear bruh
I am happy I am here
Pure magic, both the music and animation.
I just hit the jackpot with my recommended list
I can't tell what I like the most between the video clip and the music, both are amazing as usually
Damn this is the BEST while your high
Amen to that
This makes me feel a lot
this song is really calming
why this guy just has 50k subscribers? ...and despacito has 2 billion views. Life is definitely unfair.
Adrian Rodriguez Vargas I thought the same. They need to get better management
well people don't know good music when they hear it and settle for cliché stuff with a played out beat
*3.8 billion
You know different between luxury car and low grade car?
Life is not fair and not unfair. It’s people who create and guide the world. This song is not better or worser compared to despacito. It’s in the eyes and ears of people.
Sometimes 10 people can stay for 1billion as well.
Is fame, money or numbers an indicator of how good someone is?
I think these guys love and are happy as fuck with what they create with sound and visuals. That’s much more important and that’s what life is about in my opinion. So lay back bro and enjoy it. Everything else comes and goes by itself
If only people would drop a few tabs and listen/watch this, we’re all in this together
their music makes me feel happysad
Everything about this is mesmerizing I can't even find the words to do this feeling justice
Whoa ! The tiny 10 seconds part from 3:08
Delightful :D
This is one of their best tbh, and how it continues from that other video Don't hate on me, it's just that incredible feeling of consistency among other things. Really well developed music.
This is by far my Favorite😌 Hits so hard... the Goosebumps Are constant. Feels like it was written based on exactly how I’m feeling. Eye Opener for sure❤️
Chelou, thank you for your existence!
Невероятные волшебные песни с сказочным и очень подходящим видеорядом!
the visuals gotta be the most unique and trippy ons ive seen
I really like the concept of Chelou videos
It fit with the musics
Have a great day everybody!❤
Wow, you make beautiful music. It's wonderful 🖤
you don’t have to be high to enjoy music!
Ya but it makes it better
try to make life good by staying sober then everything will feel magical.🫶
The way my brain perceived this video made me smile so much thank you for that
Moral of the story..
If you feel lost or out of place on this planet
Just know
You are it
You’re apart of the whole goings on
On this planet
YOU BELONG!!!
Lovely animation and song.
Thank You for all of this.
I don't understand how music like this is so addictive
i am listening to chelou since 4 years and ngl it always seems new and different to me..💜

This might be my favorite song of yours ❤️ It's perfect. Thank you for sharing it with us :)
Alcança a minha alma e me acalma.
Só ouço chapado kkk
Stumbled across your music today, not sure if I want to show you to everyone or keep you my little secret ♥︎
what did you do in the end?
I dont know why this song makes me so nostalgic
His voice remember me the voice of alt-j's vocalist
fell in love with this immediately
This is so calming!!!
OH MAN FINALLY I FOUND A GREAT MUSICIAN
