Interesting to see what Jack was thinking about when he wrote the song. He is one of the few musicians about whose ideas I care. That said, I still prefer the images the song invokes in my head.
Says Barnett: "This video feels the closest so far to band's vision, it's completely grown from the music, rather than from something projected from outside. It was funny, with the wrecking balls, because when the video was almost finished, obviously I saw the Miley Cyrus thing-me and her must be tuned to the same wavelength somehow" - Pitchfork

i guess it's some metaphor of illusion industry and mass consumption era. very touching.. and the match of picture and sound is perfect. Thank you for that work!!
This might be the coolest song of all time. I'm no vegan, but the way we treat animals can be barbaric, and we too, are animals. Could also be an allegory for how disconnected the rich are to reality.
It really looks like some "cult" thing. Also George, the drummer and Jack's brothers it's on a long term relationship with pixie geldof, the daughter of a celebrity, anyway, they are rich, and her sister who died in mysterious circumstances, was alchemist.
Pretty disappointed with the video really. Some parts of it look really amateur, and the style as a whole I kinda disagree with. Beautiful song though.
A fantastic music video to go along with one of the best songs from the album of the year.
wonderful timeless piece
the end is my fav, like traveling into a virtual asshole
XDDD
XDDD
XDDD
My favorite. This could have been loved in 1799.
This song is ravishing.
this song is incredible

Getting an American McGee's Alice vibe from this.

And may bye its a twist... Were the animals and there the humans! There eating us
They're *
i always knew that’s how black holes look
What if this song is just about powerful people eating other people? And Jack saw that and made a song about it? How about that?
