LYRICS:
What’s the best you’ve got?
I forgot all my common sense
I need all the common sense
Time to start the clock, from the top
I need confidence
Confidence in medicine
But oh my god
22 more minutes
Ooh, so hot
Meet your brand new image
I’m the best you’ve got
True or not
I’ve got common sense
I’ve got all the common sense
Time to let me in
Let’s begin
There’s no heaviness
Just over the precipice
But oh my god
21 more minutes
Ooh, so hot
Meet your brand new image
Ooh, my god
Just a few more minutes
Ooh, so hot
It’ll be much clearer
But oh my god
Make me in your image
Ooh, so hot
Through a two way mirror
Ooh, my god
Only one more minute
Ooh, so hot
Meet your brand new image
#MagdalenaBay #Image #ImaginalDisk
My new personality for the rest of the summer
FRRRR!! So excited for new Magdalena bay music!
Hollaaaaaa
You're actually so real for that. This is our new personality
so true
So your guy's new personality is someone else's personality? You don't see how pathetic that is? Get your own life. Lol.
Magdalena and Bay are so pretty on this video
Lool😂
Oh shes hot allright....
ohhhh mah gaaaaawd
My appointment for my CD lobotomy is almost ready!
xdresser
The doctor will see you soon!
this is a sentence that im sure has never been said before
wake up babe, new magdalena bay
Original comment. 👍
Me to myself
Should've made it: "wake up bae, new magdalena bay
@@2bin TRUE
new magdalena bae
at this point, they are creating their own universe with this psychedelic style.
Maybe one day they’ll host or curate a festival 🤞🏻
and it really is psychedelic. i'm a veteran psychedelic user who has used acid and shrooms, in massive amounts for forty years. and yeah, i hate the grateful dead, that music is not psychedelic, this is...
They really are cause this MV goes right into death & Romance Music Video
Really, really tired pizzagate imagery, actually.
Kate Bush created this universe 50 years ago
my brain yearns to be washed
A moment of silence for people who may never discover this band.. how are you constantly delivering above 100% ❤
That crunchy bass in the last Chorus hits so hard!!
fr it's so good!
They do be loving the textured bass synths at the end
From rewatching the two videos, here's what I can piece together of the story so far:
The Imaginal Disk process is one that involves memory wiping (and possibly even false (imagined) memories), with the previous memories kept on one of these disks. Given the "mandatory" notices on the side, it's unknown if Mica's character (presumably named "True") chose to do this process voluntarily or not, but essentially The Doctor wipes her memory, creating a newer, lighter version of her without the burdens of her past, whether it really is "True" or not. In a weird loop, she finds a way to give the disk of her memories back to another version of herself, the blonde character, essentially putting her back "where she was before" and reminding her of the tragedy that has occurred to her (we see a spaceship blowing up, perhaps with her lover that we have previously seen escaping inside; we also see the process being conducted on her).
Where we go from here and how the time loop works we have yet to find out, but based on another commenter's mention of "imaginal disc" being a real part of insect larva transformation, and the cryptic culmination of the new website resulting in a cocoon, I think that this process has more strings attached than True originally thought!
I think blonde Mica's character name is "Ghost".
@@jpsouzaIf you check their album website. The house in Death & Romance is in there and it's called True's House. So I think Mica is True and Matt's rainbow guy is Ghost. (There's some snippet of the song in album there as well and it's rocking hard af)
@@3d-pro GHOST IS A SONG THEY RELEASED BACK IN 2018 HOLY SHIT THEY PLANNED THIS FROM THE START!!!!! AND THE FACT THAT MERCURIAL WORLD LOOPS FORESHADOWED THE TIME LOOP IN THEIR 2ND ALBUM?!?!?!
Never get tired of Mica's sensual sways and playful prancing while Matt is just chillin in the background.
When I first discovered Magdalena Bay, I wasn't sure if I was gonna Magdalena stay, but upon letting the Magdalena play, it's safe to declare I'm 100% Magdalena cray. Their melodies and harmonies make my worries all Magdalena sway, in the meadows of their groovy tunes, I'll forever Magdalena lay!
Sounds like you're having a pretty good Magdalena Day
Your poem just made my Magdalena day!
That was quite the Magdalena essay
I’m magdalena gay
@@-cjb-5048hahahhaa me too
The lore here is wild
This feels like watching Mia Goth and Kate Bush being morphed into a synthwave pop star. Magdalena Bay is iconic
ACUTE AF 😍☝🏽
Taking a wild guess -
At 0:45 into the video, a 22 minute timer starts. The album is called "Imaginal Disk", and Imaginal Disc is defined on Wikipedia as "one of the parts of a holometabolous insect larva that will become a portion of the outside of the adult insect during the pupal transformation." According to the track listing this is track number 4 (of 15) so if we take the average pop song length of 3-5 minutes into account the 22 minute countdown will probably end at the start of track 10 "Love Is Everywhere"...
The album will go through a "metamorphosis" of some sort which finishes at the end of that countdown, and it will be fucking sick
wish i could rt this
Probably explains those yucky bubble outfits which straight-up triggered my tryptophobia, dammit.
come through Veronica Mars
You need to do the opposite of touch grass.
I don’t understand why she says “one more minute” towards the end tho
Listening to this full volume in my headphones isn’t enough. I need it to be Diskinserted into my brain.
Now I really wish it was a thing, sounds so cool 😔😂
What headphones do you have?
I love the new magdalena bay era so much, the visuals are so lovely and weird i really love the vibe of it
Why is this song so addictive? It feels pretty simple too, but I can't stop listening! Still a month left for the album! 😢
the way i've had it on repeat for 6 hours, someone help me
The Magbay cinematic universe continues to expand ❤️
the transition to death and romance on point
the way the Image and Death and Romance videos lead into each other is kind of genius bc every time i finish watching one it makes me want to go right into the other.
Mica's outfit is giving empire of the sun. Love it.
whats her outfit giving empire of the sun?
@@MattttttMatttttt-zo4tx loling
it really is!!!
I don't know if it's healthy how many times I've played this song
The production on these tracks always blows me away. This is next level type shit.
when the distortion comes in towards the end i really said OHHH my gooodddd
She just single handedly out "Pet Shop Boys", the Pet Shop Boys! Amazing video.
2:48 distorted bass fits great there!cool idea!
trying to piece together the lore with the website and the mvs right now, feeling so crazed
the website is SO GOOD omg
@@janettplanett RIGHTTTTT i can't believe how put together it is... i love the mercurial world website too but imaginal disk's entire story and the execution of it just feels SO cool and cohesive and so magbay
i can already imagine how ethereal and beautiful imaginal disk is going to be
Guys, stop taking drugs...................... without me.
and never stop making hits like this!
Magdalena in an educational video about Psylocibin and the highs and lows of one's trip. Magnificent .
I didn't think Secrets' MV could be topped.
But this Image definitely managed to do it.
magdalena bay has never released a bad song
BRAT + IMAGINAL DISK SUMMER WHOS WITH MEEEEEEE
just turnt 43 this is mainlining my ‘circa 81’ nostalgia real goodt’ sis 🔥
the chorus is so catchy 😭😭
It’s a Magdalena Slay!!
Eternal image of the spotless mind
this is a hit
was literally screaming “oh my god” when the distorted bass started at the end it’s so good
Do these guys ever miss? What an amazing Dali surreal music video as well…
"Oh my god make me in your image" has me tremblinggg
These guys have just about distilled synth pop into its purest form. I can’t believe I’m alive to listen to stuff this good
Ready to be DiskInserted tomorrow! 💿
New Magdalena Bay tunes for the summer? Oh yeah.
Loving this new era!! 💓 Can't wait for the album 🥹🥹
magdalena bay music videos are a gift from the cerebral geocities god
We maladaptive dreaming to this one! 🗣
this is so beautiful i can’t even put into words how i feel this is genuinely the best thing i’ve ever seen
I love the weird core imagery, it’s so brain tickling
The hylics inspiration is real and I'm lovin it
i just had a stroke (fr) and came home to see they dropped this 🎉 10/10 magdalena bay drop
I hope you're okay :(
check for any disk sized scars in your forehead
the visuals along with this being an absolute bop is addicting
It's so rare that I listen to new music in this day and age but bands like this give me hope!
Extreme Peter Gabriel vibes on this video :D
My exact thoughts!
Magdalena Bay will be your Sledgehammer.
One of the Best artists of our generation
They might as well be. Even milquetoast performers like Taylor Swift can't even come close to the creativity of these guys. They are yet to be matched.
preach! yassss
Best song in the world
2 out of 2 so far. This might be their best album.
This music video has got to be Peter Gabriel inspired!! Those parts with the front view of Mica and all the tools are very Sledgehammer-esque. Some of the wacky SFX also really reminds me of Steam.
the weird looking skin colored costumes remind me a little of the slipperman, which if so is a pretty deep cut as far as Peter Gabriel references.
Reminds me of what you'd see on the TV when you woke up during the witching hour as a kid. Obsessed
you guys are so underrated it’s unfair 😭
LOS AMO
Their unique melodic sensibility and distinct production value truly makes for extremely addictive and fun music. Super excited for the full album!
This song is as beautiful as a silk robe 👘🙌
this has become my new jam. bit scared I'm gonna get a heart attack.
I went from being a long time king gizzard fan to an even more dedicated magbay fan. Y'all changed me fr 😂
Mate, my favourite band is Opeth bwhahaha. I love noise, experimental and drone. Magdalena Bay top them aw. 💀
This is the best music video I've ever seen.
I am so glad I found this band during Covid, They make such good music.
can't stop listening to this song
it's definitely not the 00's anymore.
i wanted my life to have this sound and visual aesthetic
already favorite song of the year, i will see the Canada monster in my dreams tonite
this was unexpectedly very good, that OOOOOOOOH MYYYY GAWWWWDDDD is catchy
So, this is a prequel to Death & Romance after all!
cant stop. wont stop. see ya in berlin.
These were my favorite twenty two minutes of the day so far
Один из лучших танцевальных хитов 2024 года!
was gonna reply to the other comment but this end up being wayy too long anyway here's what I've gathered from the 2 mvs so far & also from the Imaginary Disk site:
I think True (blue attire Mica) & Ghost (blonde Mica) might be mirrored versions of the same character. In True's bedroom we see a diary with two different pages one written by True and one by Ghost, both of their rooms also have a record player and a window looking out of the sky so i think they might exist in two parallel universes and can somehow interact with each other through a two way mirror (as seen in D&R mv).
True wrote on her page "Spend my days patiently waiting for the night to creep" and Ghost's "I'll surrender to the voices in the end" so I think this suggest that both of their fates are decided & controlled presumably by the Doctor and they're fully aware of that fact. Despite this True still finds a way to escape from the Doctor as seen here but failed, before being brainwashed by the Doctor she sends out a signal to her other self asking for help "I'm sending out a distress/So get me out of this mess" and hand her a disk or the memories of this version of herself (also through the Memory door in the Checkered Room we see Ghost standing all alone so this might indicate that she might be connected to True's memory in some way or shape).
In "The Outskirts" we see True walking down the road to "atone for her sins" and eventually entering a cocoon where it seems like she's being reborn into her purest form? If that's the case then being brainwashed is kinda like a metaphor for death as she no longer remember who she was and have no recollection of her past. That version of herself is completely dead (also the cuts before the Doctor slits her head open feels very much like life flashing before death to me).
The "aliens" in the Sky Hub are probably working for the Doctor if he's truly the mastermind behind all of this, you can see spying on his Waiting Room as well as The Field (which seems to be the gateway to both universes as this is where the 2 characters met). Their duty is probably to keep True & Ghost in checked and make sure they don't escape from the Doctor's plan which is why they tried to take Ghost's lover (the glowing figure) away from her cause it seems like he was helping her escape using his UFO which later the minions shot down causing it to explode.
There hasn't been anything relating "Town" & "D-Ejected HQ" so I feel like they might be foreshadowing future mvs. Anyway this is just my interpretation lemme know if anyone else managed to come up with something better ^^
probably the best summary write up from the current info that we have now. I do think we might get a full album visuals with all the teasing and trailer. honestly can't wait!
the beat is almost asmr-ish, it creates this unusual but satisfying texture in my ears. yet another mag bay banger!
I have not been this into a group in so long. This Magdalena Slays!
Going to be listening to this song for a long while, thanks so much guys!
Welp time to listen to this 500 times
Album of the year easy, idc about anything else dropping
I love the tv ladies ❤
Y’all the modern day Hall and Oats
my internet is back. You're videos are amazing.
Bro that bass drop is fucking nasty
This is one of the coolest looking videos I've ever seen
I cannot get enough of this, AND the new album coming out soon!!! I'm going to their live show for sure!
sew my mouth shut idc but I’ll never shut up about how they’ve been my fav band since 2017 and im still getting more insane about them after each new release from them 7 years later
Reminds me of the style of an old 80's music video, think Peter Gabriel's Sledgehammer. Love the artistic direction, very refreshing in a day and age where the artform of the music video feels like an after thought to most mainstream pop hits.
Truly if this came out in 96 it would be number 1 worldwide
Song is obviously a banger but the production team on this went CRAZZZYY
they make their own music '__'
@@kittymaid420 they meant the vid production i think
Magdalena Bay summer let’s gooo
Ohhhhh myy goddd..... songs a banger
Her makeup reminds me of Spellling
omfg the synth bass at the end, pure ear candy love your new sound
I love how catchy this song is they have such great songs
The song "Image" by Magdalena Bay tackles self-confidence, transformation, and the pressure to fit an idealized image. It explores the quest for validation, criticism of external dependence, the duality between appearance and essence, the superficiality of the pursuit of perfection, and yielding to social pressure. "Image" invites us to reflect on true self-confidence and personal acceptance, reminding us that genuine transformation starts from within.
puh that last part hitting hard!
Dancing to this all day.
