Manilla Sunset There's no running away Home's not just a place Home is also the trees And the sky and this melody Don't be so foolish You're not gone, not for long Cause I'll be back home Again, for a Manila sunset And whatever you say It's still on your face Home is simply the breeze And the sun and sweet harmonies Don't be so stupid They live on, through this song Cause i'll be back home Again, for a manila Sunset It's waiting, just hold on Not for long Cause I'll be back home Again, for a Manila sunset - Jellyfish Jellyfish happy swimming Come, swing over my heart Lingering deep down the sea Please, don’t pull me up Jellyfish happy dreaming Even the water is hot Lingering, it’s so carefree Please, don’t wake me up Answer me Show me the way Tell me where I can find you On the moon? Deep under the sea? Is true love meant to be found? Now I don’t mind Just being alone I have a good time To be on my own, but I Sometimes, Think about you Bubbles sink down into the sea Jellyfish happy dreaming Even the water is hot Lingering, it’s so carefree Please, don’t wake me up Lingering in the ocean of love We swim together then breaking apart And my crystal heart Is never the same The ocean of love It is time to say goodbye Now I don’t mind Just being alone I have a good time To be on my own, but I Sometimes, Think about you Bubbles sink down into the sea Jellyfish happy swimming Lingering deep down the sea Jellyfish happy swimming Lingering, it’s so carefree Jellyfish happy swimming
An explanation for those confused: So the basic plot/cinematography is a reference to the lyrics (and original music video!) of "我是一隻魚I'm a fish" by Richie Jen, which Sunset Rollercoaster covered beautifully in the past. The description of this video states that Tsun-Lung wrote 'Jellyfish' with a lonely breakup story in mind -- all of this will tie in nicely and make sense thematically in a minute so bear with me. The man in red is the fish who is presumably in a relationship with the lady in white, who caught him out of the sea. We see him struggling to breathe since he's a fish out of water. The lady in white sprays him down with water while holding an umbrella (confusing, right?). Further along, at 2:38, we see both of them walking under the umbrella until suddenly, he stops while she continue moving forward with the umbrella in hand (!). Then, a shot of the umbrella thrown away into the air. The lady in white pleads with the man to not die. Then, a hard cut to the man lying on his side on the floor while the woman leaves him and neatly puts away the umbrella (3:06). What the fuck is going on?! To understand, we need to read the lyrics of '我是一隻魚I'm a fish'. In this song, it's also a story of heartbreak and someone trying to move on. The man desperately misses his ex, stating that without her he's like a fish out of water who can't breathe/survive for long since she's the air in the water he needs to breathe: 像我和你需要下一場雨. ---- me and you need a shower of rain 需要你 我是一隻魚 --- I need you, I am a fish 水裡的空氣 --- the air in the water [that I breathe] 是你小心眼和壞脾氣 --- is your pettiness and your terrible temper 沒有你 像離開水的魚 --- without you, I'm like a fish out of water 快要活不下去 --- that won't live very long 不能在一起游來游去 --- we can no longer swim together Things are starting to make sense! The water she's spraying is so that he can breathe and survive (perhaps symbolizing their time together, since she is the air in the water that he breathes) and when they both walk under the same umbrella, it's a reference to the first lyric line where both of them need rain. When she continues moving forward with the umbrella without him, when the umbrella is thrown away, and when she neatly puts away the umbrella at 3:06, this is all a metaphor for how in her eyes, the relationship has ended conclusively. She tells him not to die since she won't be there anymore and leaves while he lays pathetically on his side and convulses like a fish struggling to breathe. At this point, I'm not quite sure how to interpret the lady in black. I don't think she is real (see 6:03) and might symbolize the loneliness/depression he's suffering through, especially since she's only introduced in the story after the mysterious voice says 'eat him' at 4:00. Furthermore, the lady in white leaves the man forever by going up the stairs and in exchange for her, we get the lady in black coming down from those same stairs. The plate at the end with only the man's ear piercings left might be a metaphor for how the man lost against his depression and was 'eaten'. Extra sad because right before his death is a shot of him with tears rolling down his face while he reminisces about his time with the lady in white :'( Two beautiful songs by Sunset Rollercoaster, amazing cinematography/directing/writing/styling, and overall just an incredibly unique and artistic concept that pays homage to one of the greatest C-pop artists of the 90's and 2000's. Fantastically well done by the whole team!! I can't wait for more of Sunset Rollercoaster's music and what else they can do creatively. PS: I assume the clipping of those tags at 1:44 are in reference to the first minute of the Riche Jen music video. Not quite sure the significance so if anyone knows please tell me! P.P.S: If any of Sunset Rollercoaster is reading this, please drop more merch and come to Texas dammit!!!
Masterpiece. I admire the story that is told through this video. It's incredibly beautiful in every way. Thank you for creating such wonderful things. Bravo! 💙
i am no longer with you, now im okay being on my own. ☺️ you said you cant love person who loves you. i wish you told me true. you did lose the person who loved you most. at least thanks for being honest w me, wishing you all the best, goodnight. take care of urself🙂
Manilla Sunset
There's no running away
Home's not just a place
Home is also the trees
And the sky and this melody
Don't be so foolish
You're not gone, not for long
Cause I'll be back home
Again, for a Manila sunset
And whatever you say
It's still on your face
Home is simply the breeze
And the sun and sweet harmonies
Don't be so stupid
They live on, through this song
Cause i'll be back home
Again, for a manila Sunset
It's waiting, just hold on
Not for long
Cause I'll be back home
Again, for a Manila sunset

Jellyfish
Jellyfish happy swimming
Come, swing over my heart
Lingering deep down the sea
Please, don’t pull me up
Jellyfish happy dreaming
Even the water is hot
Lingering, it’s so carefree
Please, don’t wake me up
Answer me
Show me the way
Tell me where I can find you
On the moon?
Deep under the sea?
Is true love meant to be found?
Now I don’t mind
Just being alone
I have a good time
To be on my own, but I
Sometimes,
Think about you
Bubbles sink down into the sea
Jellyfish happy dreaming
Even the water is hot
Lingering, it’s so carefree
Please, don’t wake me up
Lingering in the ocean of love
We swim together then breaking apart
And my crystal heart
Is never the same
The ocean of love
It is time to say goodbye
Now I don’t mind
Just being alone
I have a good time
To be on my own, but I
Sometimes,
Think about you
Bubbles sink down into the sea
Jellyfish happy swimming
Lingering deep down the sea
Jellyfish happy swimming
Lingering, it’s so carefree
Jellyfish happy swimming

What about the lady in red?
@@denissetiawan3645 I guess its because she ate the fish(man in red) so she becomes the man in red.
is this the story line of the lastest little mermaid movie?
I think the lady in black resembles the lady in white after his death? Like sadness over the breakup?
I think the lady in black is a ghost. She is the memory of her that still lives with him but she isn't really there like you said.
we can achieve world peace if our countries collaborated like this
