And please don't ask me why they're "eye-legs" as I would rather not step onto the topic of "leg-eyes" Get it? Because it sounds a bit like Lego? HA HA ha ha i cri everitiem
In my mind it's about how he feels pressured to let someone continue down a path even though he doesn't believe it's a good idea, and the chorus is him being defensive about not doing something ridiculous himself
I Remember listening to this back in 2017 or 2018 and I wanted to share this song with a girl I loved, I didn't tell her I loved her, its probably my biggest regret but at least I know she's okay now and we both heard this song before we went our separate ways in life. Thanks DC.
I discovered this song, ironically enough, while living in Tokyo for a while. Was a really special night when I did. Such a great song that reminds me of my truly amazing time. Gosh I miss Tokyo.
Maybe this is really obvious to everyone else, but I kinda get the impression that this music video is meant to be satirising social media. There's the camera with legs, always watching (and it reminds me of the Instagram logo). The red-haired guy is exhibiting his life, trying to impress others and put his appearance on a literal pedestal. No idea what's up with the legs with eyes. But then there's the part where the guy eats a camera, and his hands turn into giant "like" symbols, straight from Facebook. But after all that the guy seems to reject the whole concept of social media. He pushes the other guy out of the way, gets in a rocket chair, and blasts off. Finally, he takes control of a giant robot version of himself - maybe relating to abandoning online social presence/addiction, and literally taking control of who he is. Or, maybe it's just a trippy video. Either way, great song, and awesome animation.
In an interview he expressed having a need to get away from the media and the perception that came with it of holding up appearances I think ya hit the nail on the head

I always come back to this. Have a heavy heart tonight but this helps a smidge. Love you Dan, been a fan since From Nowhere days( pre-GTA V) and will be for sure be a lifelong fan! Thank you for the beautifully relatable tunes. You're the best.
I had forgotten this song 5 years ago. I was trying to get to sleep and a picture of this music video popped into my head, leading me to frantically search for it. My sleep deprivation was not wasted.
Dan Croll you are a hero. I've met you at Bear's Den tour at Effenaar in Eindhoven. You were awesome then. And awesome now. Keep up the good work man. btw. THIS MUSIC VIDEO IS SO A W E S O M E !!!!
I'M ALREADY COMPLETELY ADDICTED TO THIS SONG AND NOW WITH THIS CLIP....EVEN MORE!!!! THANK YOU DAN FOR ALWAYS MAKING AWESOME MUSIC AND AWESOME VIDEOS, PLEASE NEVER STOP, YOU'RE SO TALENTED 💘 HOPEFULLY I WILL SEE YOU IN FRANCE IN 2018 💕

Any frame could make a banging t shirt
That alien jess especially 1:19
Your ordinary SCSI hard drive controller lmfao
So true
Which one do you think is the best? I'm printing one 🙋
you are a genius. Never thought about it😉☺
2:20 “Dan you cant just fly away from situations that make you uncomfortable”. But Dan could. And he did.
"Hey, Dan have you ever been to Tokyo?" *pulls out microphone*
Get it? I Get it
Get it? 😂😂
Dan : *Perhaps*
I get it
The animation is incredible, very sweet and clean, congratulations Simon for such a great work!
Gabriela Sélavy I
Gabriela Sélavy it is
I love these types of songs so much. Very chill for a while, and then a moment of a huge urge to sing out loud.
Chelsea Fan any recommendations for similar songs? (:
I, too, sweat nervously when a pair of eye-legs bounce about
And please don't ask me why they're "eye-legs" as I would rather not step onto the topic of "leg-eyes"
Get it? Because it sounds a bit like Lego? HA HA ha ha i cri everitiem
Do you guys remember pogs? Pogs were pretty cool.
Unfortunately not. But you're Very Professional, so I guess you're pretty cool yourself.
1:18 When you accidentally open the front camera on your phone
That one was good😂
😂😂Lmfao
for me it's 2:00
Kinda reminds me of that King Crimson album cover lmao
Man I just can’t get over that clip it is beautifully done!
Potwierdzam ;)
@@haksi5683 rzeczywiście genialna animacja
The animation is such a more original and hearthwarming critic on the seek of attention on social media
In my mind it's about how he feels pressured to let someone continue down a path even though he doesn't believe it's a good idea, and the chorus is him being defensive about not doing something ridiculous himself
It's poetic and I love it whether my interpretation is accurate or not
Thanks I was looking for an interpretation

Damn wow 😳
I've been looking forward to new video!
しかも曲名が東京で嬉しい！
Come to Japan if never been to Tokyo!
Dan Croll songs are really AWESOME!Like wh y isn't he more popular.I mean, his song was in GTA V.
I discovered this song, ironically enough, while living in Tokyo for a while. Was a really special night when I did. Such a great song that reminds me of my truly amazing time. Gosh I miss Tokyo.

2:00 - that moment when you touch something weird in the sink

At this point I guess I'll never understand how to properly interpret a piece of art :v
I think the dancing legs represent twerking
In an interview he expressed having a need to get away from the media and the perception that came with it of holding up appearances I think ya hit the nail on the head
Well done boss, beautiful synopsis.
I feel at the end his head is back in the clouds matching his "enigmatic point of view"
[LYRICS]
I breakdown inside
Every time that I see you've arrived
Somehow you cross the line
Traveling faster than you've ever inclined
I've tried my best to look away but, I can't believe what
You tell me what I should say
Meanwhile, other screen, jealousy
Telling me to take a seat
And watch you as you take on it all
But you're set to fall
No I've never been to Tokyo
Never made my inhibitions known
Don't look kindly on the things you do
From my enigmatic point of view
No I've never been to Tokyo
Never made my inhibitions known
Don't look kindly on the things you do
From my enigmatic point of view

Simon Landrein Is a genius at the visual art craft. One of the coolest animations I've seen In a while.

I have to thank my local radio station for introducing me to this song! I seriously wish radios would have their DJs do lesser known stuff more often
I remember seeing him in concert opening for Aurora in Boston a year ago and he sang this and I was so upset it wasn't out yet, it's so good holy geez

Recuerdo que escuchaba mucho a Dan Croll en 2018, es un genio.
This is a cool tune
Amei, a musica, a animaçao, ficou tudo incrivel ❤

I think the transition frames from 2:59 to 3:00 are the only point in the animation where colors other than red, blue, white, and black are used.
Ohmygod i love this
