I really enjoyed your analysis of the lyrics...very close to Hua Hua's explanation of the meaning of the song. We grow, change and evolve from both the good and bad (hopefully not diminish). Hua's answer to the question "Is it still me?" and his answer was "the most essential soul in your body will not change." This has become one my favorites of his songs.💗💗
Fantastic message! We can't be afraid of growth, we could potentially waste too much time in doing so, and hinder our ability to achieve our full potential. Mistakes will be made along the way, and we may lose ourselves at any given point, but we have it in us to find our way once more, and be one with ourselves. We have to trust in our ability to do so, and that stems from understanding who we are and where we are coming from.
哈罗Mat~在中国大家称呼你"论文哥" 意思是你每次分析歌词就像在写论文一样,你对于文字的解读真的很棒!让我对于歌曲要表达的内容有更深入而全面的了解,很感谢你花时间做这个视频跟我们分享! Hello Mat, In China, people call you "the thesis guy." Every time you analyze lyrics, it's like you're writing a thesis. Your interpretation of the lyrics is impressive! It gives me a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of what the song is trying to convey. Thank you for taking the time to make this video and share it with us!
Haha, thanks for sharing that piece of info, I love the nickname! The explorative nature of these videos gets enhanced when you truly try connect with the music and the message, and I find a lot of joy in doing that. It is an enlightening process for me, and I am so happy to hear that others can find pleasure in watching me share my thoughts and overall interpretations of the music that they cherish. Thank you!
I was blown away by the cohesion between the melody, the harmonies, the lyrics, and the instrumentation. They all contributed to a central message in a concerted manner, and I believe that contributed to that depth that you speak of. It was beautiful.
Thank you so much. Love your analysis of the song. Impressive how accurate/close you are to Hua Chenyu's explanation even without knowing about /or that it is about the Theseus paradox. 😮🤗😃.
Thank you for watching! I am happy to hear that you enjoyed the reaction/analysis. When this song was recommended to me, I was actually told that it utilizes the Paradox of Theseus to convey its message. However, I purposely avoided looking up what that paradox is, or what it touches on, as I wanted the song to tell me the story without me being influenced by information provided outside of the lyrics. I find it fun to explore meaning in that way. It can be risky I suppose, as I can completely miss the mark, but my objective isn't to define these songs, as that is not how I view music or art as a whole; my main purpose is simply to explore my thoughts and share the reasoning behind them so as to demonstrate my perspective on what is being said and how I connect with it. As I mentioned in the intro of this video though, Hua's material tends to involve incredible storytelling, so I am not surprised that I was able to get close to the intended meaning just by listening to the song and reading the lyrics. The songwriting and the performance are truly the most impressive elements 😀
Thank you so much! Hua's music seems to speak to my soul, and I love being able to share that experience through these videos. I am eternally grateful that viewers have led me to his music.
Always a pleasure to watch your analysis to Hua's songs! You basically got the gist of the song from just the lyrics, but you were missing a crucial piece of info - Ship of Theseus is a famous identity paradox. There was this famous ship that the Greeks wanted to preserve over time as a reminder of Theseus's journey back to Athens after his victories, particularly after defeating the Minotaur in Crete. To keep the ship around, the Greeks were replacing its decayed wooden parts with new ones. This process of continuous replacement led to philosophical debates about the nature of identity and the persistence of objects, giving rise to the famous paradox. If all the parts of the initial ship were replaced, is that still the Ship of Theseus or it became something else? Additionally, if the old parts are reassembled into another ship, which one, if any, is the original? In his speech before the song, Hua said that we are all changing constantly but there is a part of us that remains the same over time which is our soul. Rocker Hua is my favorite, but this song is becoming my favorite mostly because it came out at a moment where I was asking myself the same questions, what are the components of "the real me" and how constant the "real me" is over time so I could heavily relate.
I commented before about this band that I think you would definitely enjoy since you like Hua and TOP, called Sleep Token. I remember you were busy with reactions, but you should give them a listen in your free time - they are lore heavy and probably have some of the best lyrics in modern music. They concluded a brilliant album trilogy in 2023 - the first album is called Sundowning (2019), This place will become your tomb (2021) and Take me Back to Eden (2023). Besides the albums, they released 2 EP's called One (2016), Two (2017) with 3 songs each that are related to the lore but not a part of the trilogy. The official lore is that Vessel (the band vocalist that does everything in the studio besides drums), was visited in a dream by an ancient deity called Sleep and now the band is spreading "sleep's" message. The unofficial lore is made up by fans and it goes pretty wild. At the surface their songs seem to be a lot about a toxic relationship, but if you dig a bit deeper it could be about the toxic relationship one has with themselves. The lyrics are pretty vague but touch on a variety of science stuff, philosophy, mythology and psychology. You can see I am a big fan lol, but I really think you'll enjoy their music even if you will not do reactions to them.
I love that! Without the parts being replaced, the ship would decay into oblivion, thus remaining solely a part of history. If it is to survive, and not only in the form of a memory, the replacements are not merely an option, but rather a necessity. I spent a good chunk of this reaction relating the metaphor to the lived experience, and to bring it back to that in this comment, change is not as much of a choice as we would like to think it is. Time changes our environment, and we must adapt as we see fit. We evolve as a result, and that much is inevitable. Thinking of life as a journey, where standing still equates to stagnation, I like the idea of a core essence or set of values remaining relatively constant as an indication that we do have somewhat of an anchor point that we can rely on to trust that we remain our true selves amidst the growth. Not in the sense that we can't stray too far from the anchor, but more so to the extent that we have a reference point understand where we are coming from as we move forward. It is eternally a part of us, regardless of the paths we choose.
@@NahIamgood I'll definitely have to check that out! I've been pretty busy lately, hence the lack of uploads, but I would love to react to some other artists as soon as I have a chance. If I were to react to Sleep Token, where would you suggest I start?
@@MFPReacts With Sleep Token (not sure if I mentioned that they are British), I would suggest you start with the more popular ones from their last album like Take me Back to Eden (title track of their 3rd album), Ascensionism, Chokehold or The Summoning. If you have more time I would definitely recommend to do the whole trilogy in order, but it's quite lenghty and your analysis will go long because there is so much to analyze lol As I said, I truly believe that you'll enjoy this band even if you do not do reactions to them but if you decide to give them a listen at least try to do a first reaction to Take me Back to Eden, it'll be worth it
