I was the other day in the metro here in Chile and a girl had tattoed "Forever dolphing love" in her arm. I never thought someone else in this country could know about this song and have a tattoo of it. I need the same tattoo in my arm. This song moved me like no other in years.
I just don't feel like he was putting enough effort into finding her, getting to know the real her or anything. She probably has a lot of suitors, he needs to believe in himself a bit more.
Basically the main character lives in a cold and detached world with friends who are equally as withdrawn. He finds a woman, strange and alone...much like him. So he follows her…pursues her love..but she is hardened from the truth behind life…and it’s disguise. She is too different, and so is he. There is no changing that. But She’s accepted this….loneliness. Our protagonist understands the message, but is too afraid to be alone, like the dolphin woman. so he accepts instead; existing in a world he’ll never truly feel a part of. Or some shit Idk..
I found it! My ex-boyfriend showed me this about a year or so ago and it was a magical moment indeed. We were laying out in the desert garden at night on blankets at the time. The breeze was perfumed and warm. And then I totally forgot that moment, this song etc. Well this morning I woke up with the melody in my head and fractured visions of the video but that was all. I couldn't put my fucking finger on it but then I remembered "dolphin" and added that to my "weird indie band from new Zealand video" and voila! Took me about an hour. Took me a few years. But I bought them all and wore one one day after another.
I like the way you think. hearing a song and kinda half registering it, but being enough in the moment that you don't try to find what it is. then later you look it up. nice. and perfumed breeze. great way to describe a breeze. like a time when I went to Hawaii, that's the best way to describe the air when I landed, perfumed
the first time I put up this album, I was taking a bath. No drugs taken, I tripped the entire thing through, one of the best experiences of my life so far. THank you, Connan
How were they ahead of their time? weird music videos been around since the Beatles n i don't think they do anything particularly unique or unheard of in 2011
quite a lot more actually. these guitars are dripping in effects. many guitar. pedals were used. Guitar pedals can be used as instruments in and of themselves so yeah way more than just four instruments. It's still a masterpiece tho
exactly as you said mister mojo jojo, i feel he can made something similiar of jodorowsky's movie type. with their own sound. its going to be sexy for movie nerds
1. the notion of struggling to find your identity within the art world, finding your trace and niche . The idea of all the characters blending together - same person but the many different identities 2. the art world has genuinely taken over their life so much that you can see it on them and around them - they have become their art
Saw him last night along with Mac Demarco and King Gizard and the Lizard Wizard, he so fucking weird but so fucking good to the ears. I dig the whole Avant Garde art thing.
When I made a weekend trip to London, I stared at this metal wall at Elephant and Castle in 05:33 at night for ages, baffled from the play of light from traffic. Oh London, I miss you so much.
I remember listening to this my first time ever smoking weed back in 2014 and was straight having a panic attack all the way up until 2:49 when a semi passed me and I thought it was going to hit me and the next section hit simultaneously at the realization that I was safe and it literally felt like relief. Weird how music does that.
Best thing I’ve seen in well over a decade. Come to think of it I can’t recall anything close during the last decade~so likely the most righteous thing I’ve ever seen
A story about discovering love. At the beginning he is with his friends with his eyes closed. He is so caught up with them that he shuts himself off to many other possibilities. When he opens his eyes it has a dramatic effect on his group. He now views the world differently. This causes him to be open to the possibility of love. He becomes absolutely obsessed with his love interest (The dolphin). He detaches from his group to seek her out. He begins to chase after her. losing much time in the process. His approach is rejected. He returns back to his friend group a changed man. His eyes are open, and his friends are closed. He now has an unrelatable perception of the world. The dolphins eyes are open too though. This could mean that they not only had a similar world view, but mutual feelings. At the end I think the dolphin is only symbolically with them. The dolphin is the one that got away.
Connan, do you have communication with dolphins? And do you give us the message, the aquatic vibrations and the energy of his love? Your music takes us into high states of fluidity, release of tensions and love 💕
Wow !!!! Stigmatized by life, dumped in reality...exactly how I feel !!!!! This is absolutely marvelous !!! Listening and watching again and again ! Many thanks !!!
From bleached waves That never changes From Dalston Forever dolphin love My dull steed She has no hair I'll talk to her Forever dolphin love You don't smile He's turning heads He talks to her Forever dolphin love From memories That never change From Dalston Forever dolphin love Oooh Soldier I loved her She was to be my wife Oooh Soldier I loved her She was to be my wife My wife The black bay ... That never change From Dalston Forever dolphin love The midway That never door From Dalston Forever dolphin love
The fact that nobody on the street even pays much attention to people dressed so oddly is also a powerful truth. How dull we have become. Just a thought ☺️
Every time I watch the first part, with Conan and his weird clique, I am reminded of Nirvana's: "I'm so happy, 'cause today I found my friends, they're in my head".
Esta canción cambió la forma en la que veo la música y llegó a mi en un momento en que nada de lo que escuchaba llamaba mi atención, gracias connan ❤️❤️

This feels like the perfect balance of pain and pleasure.
Well said
A tad bit more pain...
Shut up Baby dick
Best comment I have seen in my life.
@@sebastianalarcon1204 shut up baby divk?

This girl is a goddess! :)
Why tho
U just got the tattoo because some girl had it on the subway? What’s the real reason u connect to the song

I'm still in shock this song actually exists.
Discovered it some time ago and always been grateful for the sounds coming out of my speakers.

One letter: Y
after all these years, I am now 100% sure this is one of the best songs ever written. and saddest while I'm at it. absolute gorgeous masterpiece
Same love it 14 years later . ❤
@ChristopherJohnWilson-no5zz Connan is still my favourite live act I've seen until this day.
This song is restoring my will to live.
I fucking swear though...
Bonobo
How fam?
Try the king krule version. Different level
you good?
This song changed my life
Zoofiapono
My life changed this song.
@@ogungou9 woah
the bassline in this track is something very very very very special. it won't leave me....this song won't leave me....the dolphin....it left me
The best music video ever made! When he touches dolphin girl and she just turns around and walks away... 😭
And her eyes ❣️❣️.
he starts off happy chillin with his groovy buddies then goes chasing dolphin girl for miles, then he ends up alone. Damn thats life in a nutshell.
This is the best comment on a music video that I have ever read.
She was too sad to be with another.......especially another sad person.
he doesn’t end up alone. he ends up with her and his friends too. you must have not finished watching the video
@@ayaonora Thank you!! They're married for sure
I just don't feel like he was putting enough effort into finding her, getting to know the real her or anything. She probably has a lot of suitors, he needs to believe in himself a bit more.
I have severe depression and anxiety and this song helps so much makes me smile n never fails x
Thomas Thackstone :o ... How are you doing now
Siento lo mismo
i never had severe depression or anx until i tried to watch first 2 minutes. lost - no ryme or reason n no time nor of season
Wtf
I have depression as well but this made me feel weird, an I have a open mind... But wow this was a little out there lol good art work tho😊
What an incredible song, so many fantastic melodies. And the tension built at the start settles into an amazing tune.
Basically the main character lives in a cold and detached world with friends who are equally as withdrawn. He finds a woman, strange and alone...much like him. So he follows her…pursues her love..but she is hardened from the truth behind life…and it’s disguise. She is too different, and so is he. There is no changing that.

Or some shit Idk..
Fuck
Well done CurdlingMacabre ...
Wow. Speechless
That’s deep
too long didn’t read
i couldn't love this any more. this sounds like my head as autumn approaches. my favorite time of year.
He has one beautiful mind.
Can’t help crying like a baby every time I hear this song. 💔 So moving, evocative, heartbreaking.
The transition at 2:50 - 3:50 is the most beautiful trip ever. Wish this minute could last forever.
Spent so long waiting for the song to start

You dumped him like in video? lmao
Somehow I find this quite relatable.
Connan should win a grammy for the way he looked at her when he finally found her
Oscar
the first time I put up this album, I was taking a bath. No drugs taken, I tripped the entire thing through, one of the best experiences of my life so far.
THank you, Connan
They way that groove hits at 4:18 is awesome. This video is pretty out there. These jams are good.
+Alfred Napoles from 4:15 is more epic. I love the way the musical idea changes.
Who's here in 2020?
Seriously though, I know it's only been 9 years, but these guys are ahead of their time.
i have think this is recently
here from a mac demarco video
How were they ahead of their time? weird music videos been around since the Beatles n i don't think they do anything particularly unique or unheard of in 2011
who's here in blank comments are rancid
It's about time there was a song about dolphin love, especially the type that's lasts forever. My favourite type of dolphin love
this feels like a melted heart....
I was at the Hard Rock Albuquerque last year and they had Connan's outfit on display. It was so cool.
This song is a great example of how many things you can do using only 4 instruments. Nothing more, nothing less
quite a lot more actually. these guitars are dripping in effects. many guitar. pedals were used. Guitar pedals can be used as instruments in and of themselves so yeah way more than just four instruments. It's still a masterpiece tho
Did you factor in the Stylophone?
Everyone has a different interpretation of this music video. A form of true art.
This guy needs to make a movie
jojo s in Russia we had a cartoon (25 years ago) ua-cam.com/video/fgyR2zQlHD4/v-deo.html
exactly as you said mister mojo jojo, i feel he can made something similiar of jodorowsky's movie type. with their own sound. its going to be sexy for movie nerds
faisal azhar Jodorowsky is one of my favorite avant-garde/ surrealist producers, I completely agree with you.
+Mojo Jojo The Room PT. 2
O.O
You guys should see Jodorowsky's latest, Dance of Reality!
Both musical and conceptual masterpiece, bravo Connan.
I'm so completely confused and scared... But it's so good.
The video is so inspiring. The soundtrack is beyond greatness.

This guys a fucking genius
This is so trippy, I LOVE it! It's making me feel very nostalgic, although I've never heard it before. Beautiful.
honestly still love this video it’s just so odd i’m attached to it, this guys a genius i’m obsessed

At the first Sydney show, they were really under appreciated, I was about one of ten people even applauding. They were definitely amazing.
Best thing I’ve seen in well over a decade. Come to think of it I can’t recall anything close during the last decade~so likely the most righteous thing I’ve ever seen
I love this song especially after the intro.
I'm so glad i live under a rock and every once and awhile i stick my head out ~ look see, Connan Moccasin
boy oh boy, i love this guy's work.

Greg Arius dam dude, that's deep...

This song is about fucking a dolphin don't get ittwisted
Hey man, very Thanks for the explanation, i loved!!!!!

This has got to be 1 of the top 10 most unusual videos that I have ever seen !!!! THANKS !!!!
Beautiful, Grotesque, sweet.
this is art and it’s so underrated
nice profile pic

King Krule pfp and everything
No puedo quitar mi vista y mis oídos de este videoclip
Me hipnotizan los colores y la letra es hermosa
Hola, comentario en español! Tremendo gusto musical. Esto es una obra de arte.
@@gustavofernandez1937 ésto es increíble, me vuela la cabeza 🤯🤯 ...desde Paraguay ✌🏼🌚
Yes.
I can't get this piece of art out of my head
She was so beautiful that it made him seem different and he didn’t wanna be in his world without her once he lost her he felt lonely
This is bloody fantastic
Oh God, I can't wait to hear it in Poland this summer!
Wow coming back to this all these years it still simultaneously breaks & fixes my heart
Instant fan. Omg.
Wow !!!! Stigmatized by life, dumped in reality...exactly how I feel !!!!! This is absolutely marvelous !!! Listening and watching again and again ! Many thanks !!!
the melody, lyrics, video and faces are so artistic and painful in a way, i loved that !!
This is an amazing piece of art.
I think this is one of the greatest examples I've ever seen of a videoclip fitting so nicely the song that its animating.
From bleached waves
That never changes
From Dalston
Forever dolphin love
My dull steed
She has no hair
I'll talk to her
Forever dolphin love
You don't smile
He's turning heads
He talks to her
Forever dolphin love
From memories
That never change
From Dalston
Forever dolphin love
Oooh Soldier I loved her
She was to be my wife
Oooh Soldier I loved her
She was to be my wife
My wife
The black bay ...
That never change
From Dalston
Forever dolphin love
The midway
That never door
From Dalston
Forever dolphin love
I've seen a few different interpretations of these lyrics. Is there an official version? I'd like to do a cover version with my band.
Bump
😍😍😍🌸🌺🌸🌻🌻🌺🌸🌻🌸🌺🌸🌻🌸🌺💃👋👋👋🇧🇻🇧🇻🇧🇻🇧🇻❤❤❤
Bro are you serious? From Dalston.......it's "I'm lost in"
Just because two people are outcasts doesn't mean they're compatible.
cold...
Should have watched to the end!
I learned that the hard way.
Forever Dolphin Love
@@tapangasoul6928 also truth
rings true for me
Im so late on this but i feel this heartache and this song played at the right time after all these years to make so much sense.
I just discovered this song today.... so far it's pretty good
I love and hate how it ends.
so alienated ... I know that feeling
Brilliant song. Timeless
this is so beautiful! :) I love it! thank you so much for making this! :)

This is one of the coolest songs I've heard in a while for fucking sure
I'm obsessed with this tune!!
It's a dolphin love story. This is art.
❤❤❤❤❤
that was a masterpiece of surrealism!! i hope he makes more videos like that..
this is perfect. just. perfect. ultra artsy
I always cry when I hear this, but it's not an extremely sad song nor does it relate to me. It just makes me feel sadness and emptiness.
NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE HAVE SEEN THIS BEAUTY!
well done,this masterpiece now getting massive exposure to a wider audience prime time with a certain motor insurance advert
stephen james whattt really?
I only found about this artist because mac demarco mentioned his new album is his favorite of 2018
amazing song! wonderful bass line!
Can't stop watching this.
Awesome as hell! What a bass, just incredible!
This is beautiful, haunting, and magical!
He’s a legend , go listen to
All of his work , it’s extremely dynamic and authentic.
So soothing and lovely, engages so many parts of my being! Thank You!
Every time I watch the first part, with Conan and his weird clique, I am reminded of Nirvana's: "I'm so happy, 'cause today I found my friends, they're in my head".
Lithium.
Best song and video-clip of my life
this video, this song makes me feel so in love ♡♡♡♡
Never heard of Connan Mockasin 'till now. I'm hooked.
This is the best feeling of dissasociative thought ever.
I noticed this song in the background of brave new world earlier and got super excited. hopefully it finally starts getting the views it deserves
i deeply wanna have friends like this..
This whole song is perfect
Esta canción cambió la forma en la que veo la música y llegó a mi en un momento en que nada de lo que escuchaba llamaba mi atención, gracias connan ❤️❤️
I used to listen to this song when I was in Amsterdam.
I let you imagine how wonderful it was..
Btw, come to Paris Connan.
Peace
The creepiest part of this video is that everyone is walking past them like they're normal people.
Yeah, standard day in London mate.
stunning
i love this song and video but when i watch this shit stoned, can't lie i burst out laughing. these guys have the jazz.
5:14
so good!!!!
já quase bati o carro porque tava escutando essa música, ela é sensacional! um misto de emoções.
This is just perfect.
