That's like when I typed "lalala song" and got "Loving You" by Minnie Riperton. One of those songs that's so weirdly annoying that I have to hear it again.
She is exemplary as a humanely individualistic alternative to *this* conditioned, imbecilized world of ritually-dehumanizing groupmind regimentation: ua-cam.com/video/jtVjmcujrIg/v-deo.html [shows ferret to an egg, this ensues: ua-cam.com/video/0oFYRXZpMqw/v-deo.html] ( ಠ ͜ʖಠ)
she's like a witch who has spent an inordinate number of lifetimes studying the arcane arts and has forgotten what it's like to be human but woke up in a very good mood today
Really? heard this song for the first time a few days ago I was incredibly inspired! I checked out alot of her music after that, her art is so fuckin cool I admire the shit out of it! Aldous Harding is fuckin lit mang
Not gonna lie I'm not sure I am. I kinda suspect she means humanity when she says "Its already dead" Think we have found phase fours big bad. Tune though.
The comments section to the new film Eternals is actually pretty great. It's one of those infinite loop comments where everyone says the same joke in a slightly different way.
I bought her album, the vinyl arrived, I havent played brand new vinyl for 40 years? . . .I found my 40 year old 'stereo' in the back of the shed. I played this song. I showed the ferret the egg. He sighed.
Same drill here; but my ferret sneeringly declared "Wake up, retro-consumerist chump! Vinyl's a thing of the past, gone, kaput -- *I'm* not gettin' led along!" But after some moments more of listening he suddenly stared wildly around and (catching sight of an old Allman Brothers LP's album-cover art) exclaimed, "Jesus -- look at all them damn peaches!!!"-- and I'll be darned if he didn't suddenly disappear from somewhere and appear inside of nowhere! Of course, he'd previously been bingeing on "Binaural-DMT-Frequency Pineal Gland Activation" vids on UA-cam, so I can sorta understand where he was comin' from. Cheers.
Yep. This and well, all the others she's made. Her music is radically different from anything else. The lyrics alone would make her stand out, but the music is just lush.
@@Eggmanrocks it is poetry, so it is open for you to experience and take what comes to you. And that is what it means. There is no one thing that you aren't getting and other people are. Open yourself and let the connections rise up.
Showed this video to my 73 yr old mother, her first comment was "this reminds me of what my girlfriends and i were doing in art school during the 60's," and i realized great minds really do think alike
This put a giant smile in my face lol. I love when I can connect to the older generation through music. Far too many of them are so close minded about today's music
That makes sense. The film Holy Mountain came out in 1973, and the art direction in this video takes a lot of cues from psychedelic cinema from that era.
When I showed this film to my 73-year-old mother, her first reaction was, "This reminds me of what my girlfriends and I were doing in art school back in the 1960s," and I realized that great minds truly do think alike.
Debbie Harry brought me here. she mentioned this song as one of her recent favorite songs in an interview with virgin radio. even more thankful for her existence right now.
Interesting that you said that. Just this past week, i was watching that very same Debbie Harry interview vid and heard Deb mention this Aldous song. So me being curious (never heard of aldous before), i wanted to see it. Scared the bejabbers outa me (not exactly sure what bejabbers are), gave me the creeps. Took me a whole week before i could rewatch it because i was too disturbed....🤣😂😳 True!
Aldous Harding is to music what Stewart Lee is to comedy - they both skate the fine line between utterly ridiculous and utterly compelling like absolute pro's.
last year when I first commented I was really freaked out tbh and now I kinda love it? Is that progress or does that mean I'm possessed now?? (p.s thanks for the likes people) !
Our toddler is a big Aldous fan. We listen to her music regularly during relaxing times. Sometimes after a 15 minute Baby Signs session, we’ll play her a music video as an outro. Put this on and she was in utter rapture until the blue mask part. Never seen her sign “all done” so rapidly or definitively. The thing is, the very next day, when we did Baby Signs, I put on one of her other favorite music videos, and she rejected it, then another, until I put this one on. She watched it until the “big hat on face” moment, then calmly signed “all done”. Turned the TV off and she was happy. My 15-month-old baby is obsessed.
Your toddler got style. Hope she will be an artist. I have three children, they are now almost adults. But I learned that if you offer them good music and art early they develop a certain sense. Today I can say, if something touches them it is a proof that it is really good.
Ok i listened to this Song for a year now. At first I was obsessed with the fact, that the Video is uncanny mystical witch-art, its on the edge of sadness, wisdom, horror and comedy. It offers comedic relief for things there shuldnt be had none. It also offered me a non hardfactual insight into the feelings of (a) woman and I still open myself to let that sink in. But today I decided to write this comment because I realized that this Song is also musically unbelievably groovy and funky. Its just such a joy to dance to it. The groove is unreal, I cant even think of anything that has this soft subtle but brilliant funk to it. So yeah, im unworthy, thank you!
Millions of Peaches peaches for me. Millions of Peaches peaches for free!!! Remember that one? LOL!!!! That was done by The Presidents of the United States of America!!!!
This song always reminds me of my grade 7 math teacher. He was the best teacher I've ever had. He always played this during tests and when we went to a camp with class he played this to wake us all up. Best teacher ever. Going to high-school next year and I'm going to miss him.
What I would give to be a kid again. I know this sounds corny and weird, but enjoy the time you're living in right now. Things will get crazy and hard one day, and these days will be something you go back to forever, as a source of strength and identity. Things might suck sometimes, but these will be some of the best and most important of your life.
Teachers like this are extremely rare. Cherish the memories you have. He has certainly entered your psyche and will influence,however subtly,everything you do from now on until you die. He is a great man.
If you haven't, tell him. And thank him. I have written our spoke with teachers from my past who made a deep positive impact on me, to thank them and tell them so. There's one that I tried to, but he died before I could. 😞
Pj harvey and all the sweet lesbians of the ninties.ani difranco let me kiss her hairy axilla wayback Can still smell the patchouli 🤗🤗🤗 i played this 10 times
Quite a catchy song, infectious even. The video is also an attention-grabber due to it's bizarro nature. But after delving more into her music, I realized what unparalleled talent this lady is. There's really no one out there like her right now. Even with her quirky delivery, I'm very impressed.
I think you mean, ESPECIALLY with her quirky delivery :) but yes, it is infectious, this is probably my 10th time here in the last 3 days.... Aldous is a poetic genius. What I would give to have tea with her just once.
I want to get a pet ferret when I'm older. When I do, I will surely show it to the eggs I buy from the grocery store. The more eggs to show the ferret to, the better, right?
@@daninoa9650 Well, it will certainly keep the eggs from getting any crazy ideas, right? Because ferrets are notorious egg-stealers. And not to just collect them. Their actual motives are said to be rather more sinister than that.
This is pure Dada . The words can have emotional effect whether or not objective meaningis there or not . I love this song and I like her work as I discover more and more !
Beautiful song, flawless and mesmerising. The video is just sublime, I can't stop watching her dance, I love it when she looks straight into camera just nodding her head to the beat, she has great natural rhythm. I've just realised that I've repeated this video over and over again for 40 minutes while I read everyone else's comments. I can't stop smiling, this is so good, I love it ❤️
It feels like magic. 1:59 and 2:31 give me chills. If you explore her countenance. Perhaps she's genuinely realizing/feeling the magic. Must be overwhelming. I've no idea. Would be nice to ask her......
I just joked with my GF saying that this girl must be from New Zealand - I was right! Kiwi's are in their own lane with art and comedy! I'm endlessly finding New Zealand music and entertainment that is second to none!
I can't stress enough how wonderful the construction of this song is. the lyrics is so intricate and exposing but so secluded at the same time. and the composition and production of the music is so gently done. You can feel a needle fall in-between the space and neatly placed hits of the arrangement.
I've listened to this song a thousand times now (ok, 47 times) and it still gets me, intrigues me. The lyrics, the video, the voice(s), the music: all breathes good art for me. So gentle indeed ;)
Hypnotized by the music, the words that I can occasionally understand, and, the three thousand plus comments, I cannot imagine a day going by without hearing/seeing it again, at least until I understand why
what on earth? i'm bewildered and intrigued. i just clicked on a visually striking thumb, not knowing or even thinking beyond impulse. but i'm like captivated now.
I am stunned by the depth of poetry in this song and video combination. There isn't a songwriter in the world I revere as much as I do Aldous Harding for her ability to pack so many layers of herself in one song.
When Aldous dances like Aldous, she is "enigmatic" and "ethereal", but when *I* dance like Aldous I'm "perplexing" and "scaring the customers"
Hahahahah
When I tried dancing like Aldous Harding some of the passengers complained that it made the safety briefing hard to follow.
When I dance like Aldous Harding my kids get uncomfortable. I think it's working!
@@sarahquinlan4730 Pro parenting right there :).
Brilliant hahaha
I was trying to remember this song and googled "show the ferret to the egg" thinking that it couldn't possibly be correct. But here I am.
That's like when I typed "lalala song" and got "Loving You" by Minnie Riperton. One of those songs that's so weirdly annoying that I have to hear it again.
Feliz 8 de marzo a todos...
Same man
...and that is how to find obscure but great music.
We also would’ve accepted “look at all the peaches”.
I was on a dancefloor last week and a random dude said I danced like aldous harding and it might be the best compliment I've ever received
Truly the highest praise. I've given similar compliments and it has always been rewarding (got a 5+ year relationship out of one!).
Utterly spellbinding. I've fallen down the Aldous rabbit hole and I think I'll just be staying here a while. Tell my family I love them.
Bring your family along and have a picnic.
Exactly how I feel (brilliant)
Often happens to me - watch out for it/
She's David Bowie and Laurie Anderson's love child.

Exactly. The start is a journey up the vagina.
The hat is obvious. Now to figure out the symbolism of the ladder.
I think that's what she's going for
I would say it is about crucial reproductive rights

I am not disappointed.

Just spent the entire song liking every comment here because they all fit perfectly and they’re all equally the best.
Including this one
You should definitely watch the video!
Oh YES
Wicked tune i love this girl. Can we emjoy simple and beauty.plus i love masculine face😘
Thank you, Jessica. I'm sure Aldous has something to do with the kindly appreciation of her fans.
This song has a bass clarinet in it. There are other great things about it also.
I love this comment 😂
GPT lives in you.
Yeah, just a pity they didn't get someone who could actually PLAY the bass clarinet.
As a bass clarinet player, this song makes me so happy
I heard a Cello.. but that will do..
I have NO idea what is going on here. But I love it.
I swear this song helps cure my anxiety and depression
True. I always have a big smile on my face watching it :)
Just watched this for the first time. I am so frightened right now. But I will be back.
...and I’m back!
Hahaha same i love this
Really? heard this song for the first time a few days ago I was incredibly inspired! I checked out alot of her music after that, her art is so fuckin cool I admire the shit out of it! Aldous Harding is fuckin lit mang

Im in the best mood from the song and the comments
I was just thinking that, this is amazing.
I love her. Can’t get enough of this song.
Man I just love the backing vocal on this. Really elevates the second half of the song.
the backing vox are great, kind of carefree and jubilant, with a sort of defiance... totally agree :)
The male or female?
Brilliant comment. Rather than embellish this lyrics, they emphasize them!
Sounds like Matt Berninger but can't find a credit anywhere.

YEAS! that is one of my favorite scenes in this video. Aldous is so beautiful, and she is so wonderful at everything she does.
Yeah her face is astonishing in this
If she didn’t have that special attraction, she would be lost in the crowd. How to bring ordinary to mesmerizing- this is it.
This may be the most hypnotic music video I have ever seen.
Wait till you see her other word.
Every day I wake up, put this song on and try to do all the moves.
yep its burn all fat and makes your nose looks bigger

9 months later and I’m saying the same thing

The power of hat compels you!!!!
Director: "So, we're just gonna have you dance front of these draped sheets."
Aldous: "I know exactly what to do"
She has stated her video's are done to her exact demands & she does not appreciate input or suggestions.
The costume is a direct homage to Alejandro Jodorowski's classic film "the Holy Mountain." ^_^ This singer really has fun with the kooky getup.
vs self sabotage
Congratulations to whoever worked on this song. Really well produced
Very addicting visually and audibly.
Everything about it is so disarming and warm.
It's disarmingly dry at the beginning. Really subtly unique sound.
It's incredibly sad yet filled with life and humanity. Life, love, loss... and yet it's all still so evidently beautiful and precious
Love her sense of humor about herself.♥️🗯🎶
Holy fucking hell ... this song is doing all sorts of beautiful, warm, heartbreaking things to me. I am in love with this song

It feels like magic. 1:59 and 2:31 give me chills. If you explore her countenance. Perhaps she's genuinely realizing/feeling the magic. Must be overwhelming. I've no idea. Would be nice to ask her......
Same here
I've watched this about 20 times today. I'm literally obsessed with everything about this. She is my spirit animal!
Agree
I honestly cannot tell if I am unsettled or the most at ease I have ever been.
Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comforted.
absolutely ethereal and nourishing in sound with giggly and fun visuals ⚡️⚡️⚡️
This makes me uncomfortable in such a strange way that it comes full-circle and makes me comfortable again.
Couldn't have said it any better myself.
This the best description
Perfect!!
Most accurate description of an inexlicably bizarre feeling I've ever read
That means she is doing it right.😉❤
I'm afraid one day I will open a random door and find myself in this room.
I'm afraid one day we all will.
I've already been there.
You need to stop opening random doors.
But yes agreed, I watch this and other Harding videos and think they might find there way into my sleep
I feel like it would be a pretty good time. Just be sure to turn back when you see the ladder. Anything after the ladder is not a good time.
i actually saw it on a horror movie about a girl in a theater school
I just joked with my GF saying that this girl must be from New Zealand - I was right! Kiwi's are in their own lane with art and comedy! I'm endlessly finding New Zealand music and entertainment that is second to none!
It seems like New Zealander's have an amazing sense of humor.
Home of Bjork, that makes sense
And the sugarcubes before that of course
@@openplz3000 Bjork is from Iceland actually
@@eltravos99 my bad
I can't stress enough how wonderful the construction of this song is. the lyrics is so intricate and exposing but so secluded at the same time. and the composition and production of the music is so gently done. You can feel a needle fall in-between the space and neatly placed hits of the arrangement.
Huh?
I've listened to this song a thousand times now (ok, 47 times) and it still gets me, intrigues me.
The lyrics, the video, the voice(s), the music: all breathes good art for me. So gentle indeed ;)
Niet overdrijven allemaal hm... it's just a song ;)
Same feeling. I discovered this gem in July and here I am listening to it at least twice a day 😌 it has something I can't even put into words.
her smile :) and assuming she’s most likely Irish thi scots [make sentence seem one yet both to cover..its caked-vagueness thi used soaringly]
She's like if the Babadook had an Amish punk cousin. I'm in.
All in
literally Loled at that
Punk cousin? The word punk should be nowhere near this.
She's like if a vodka mixed with a whiskey.
you talk like me ahhaha
Serving high-fashion pilgrim REALNESS.
You misspelled "realness' for WEIRDNESS.
THIS WOMAN IS INCREDIBLE!!! 😍🤩🥰
That was just a joy. Definitely making my kids do the blue face thing. Kate Bush level great and we all know there’s no greater level. Thank you
Was just thinking she reminds me of Kate Bush!
Tim McGrath 💞🔥Kate Bush!!
I am loving that you will blue-face your kids for this!
"The Barrel" was the highest debut on the New Alternative 40 Chart this week at #2.
New Zealand is the happening
If you say so.Lol
WHAT ON EARTH WAS NUMBER ONE!??
Delightful, dark, and infectious. I keep returning to this, over and over.
When this song came out,it became my all time fave song ever.
It still sticks. This song is magic. ❤
I revisit frequently. On album and just for the video. It just is one if those songs..
@@manimanibooboo YES. YOU SO GET IT! Magic, I tell you. 🙏
@@manimanibooboo her whole body of work is amazing. She's special. ❤
I'm too old to appreciate most new music but this is too good to ignore.
Old is a state of mind.
Award for the best comments everyone of these. I’m literally dying here. Loved the song too.. video doesn’t disappoint.
Love it. My English is insufficient to show my overwhelming appreciation.
"Yo, Egg, check out this ferret."
Thanks Mark
Mad love and respect dawg!
🤣🤣🤣
Y'all got any more of them nuts?
I'm disabled and crying with laughter at this, a dance I can do at last 😂😂😂
This song I can listen to indefinitely
Hypnotized by the music, the words that I can occasionally understand, and, the three thousand plus comments, I cannot imagine a day going by without hearing/seeing it again, at least until I understand why
This video is such a rollercoaster. The moment you think you know how it's going to go, something bizarre happens.
what on earth? i'm bewildered and intrigued. i just clicked on a visually striking thumb, not knowing or even thinking beyond impulse. but i'm like captivated now.
I've come back to this at least fifty times over the past week. It's mesmerizing, ever so slightly unsettling, and yet powerfully anodyne.
I am stunned by the depth of poetry in this song and video combination. There isn't a songwriter in the world I revere as much as I do Aldous Harding for her ability to pack so many layers of herself in one song.
I still can't stop watching this video.....
