21:57 “There is a place in the afterlife people under hypnosis describe as a soul cleansing or a shower of light. A place where gem-colored rays of light shine through every inch of your soul, cleansing your spirit of the trauma it had experienced during your last lifetime. Restoring you to your original vibration”
All of the songs have the relatable earthly meanings. But the true meaning of this album is based on experiences told by people who have undergone hypnosis for past life regression and were asked to remember the in between stage of death and life (people who have near death experiences often describe the same type of things). So we start with the physical body dying and the soul detaching from it (DEATH). It then enters a void where it is alone and reflects on the life it just departed (VOID). After this, it enters a tunnel where it begins to hear what's usually referred to as "hymns of the familiar" (TUNNEL VISION). When it reaches the end of the tunnel, it is greeted and welcomed by its soul family (other souls that often reincarnate together and interact with each other on Earth) referred to as "the homecoming" (FAERIE SOIREÉ). The soul then gets bathed in a shower of gem-coloured light that cleanses it of all its earthly traumas and reverts it to pure love (LIGHT SHOWER). In this otherworld, the souls are all perfectly connected and interconnected, to the point that they don't communicate with words (SPIDER WEB). The souls also attend a sort of "school" where they review their past lives to see areas they still need to evolve and work on, and they review different earthly conflicts that they can pick and choose from to experience during their next incarnation to help them evolve in areas they want to work on (LEECHES - EVIL). Once they have decided on the conflicts in their next life time, and discussed with other souls what parts they will play together and how they will interact in the lifetime, they are sent to the womb of the mother they chose where they are fused with the fetus and a "veil" is put on the soul so that it forgets planning the lifetime and forgets its past lives, as the knowledge of these things would make existence on earth much more difficult (WOMB).
I feel like you're one of the very few people I've seen react to this album and just...get it. There's so much depth and artistry in this album. A lot of people are just like "this is weird lol" but you just get it. Thank you for your work!
No problem! 😊 I think over the time I've been doing the channel and through doing artists like Bjork and trying to figure them out I've learned a lot about experimental art pop!
the spider web beat drop fits so good in the song!! i don't know how to explain it but it just sounds so spider-y? I love how her creativity is overflowing in this project.
I think The Contortionist is about doing “backbends” in a relationship. Sort of forcing yourself to go to drastic lengths in a relationship, for someone who wouldn’t do the same for you. “I pushed myself into a box while you held out a gun”
You're right, but the song can apply to multiple things, not just romantic relationships. According to Melanie, "This song is about bending over backwards for someone who doesn't accept you the way you are." This can also be like bending over backwards to fit in the mold of a certain version of yourself that isn't how you really are, just so society and the environment around you will accept you only in that mold. This song can also very much apply to masking. She uses a contortionist as a metaphor, hence the title, because they actually bend over backwards literally.
The kind of interlude at the ending of Nymphology was going to be a separate song called "Amulet" but Melanie said that it was getting really hard to plan the whole song out and write lyrics for the full song so it had to be merged with another song.
@@mohamedhany3685 you are both right. Actually she said that Amulet (which is really written by Verde) was supposed to be a whole song but it was hard figuring out the rest of the song so she merged it with nymphology. She heard the beat of faerie soiree by mistake in the studio and she was just so inspired by the vibe that she wrote the whole song. Amulet wasn’t built to be a whole song one day
@@clararaclette750 I mean, Amulet could've been a short song, which is just an interlude but I get how she wants to merge it with Nymphology because she hasn't really done an interlude in her discography before
I *love* how you get the meanings of the songs and explain them to us very beautifully. I can't get the meanings that fast personally! What a beautiful reaction! 💛💛💛💛
There’s a theory that at the end of leeches the audio at the end is her ex screaming at her which it makes sense cause the song it about him abusing her
For those wants to know all of the tracks 1. DEATH 2. VOID 3. TUNNEL VERSION 4. FAERIE SOIRÉE 5. LIGHT SHOWER 6.SPIDERWEB 7.LEECHES 8. BATTLE OF THE LARYNX 9. THE CONTORTIONIST 10. MOON CYCLE 11. Nymphology 12.EVIL 13.WOMB special ones is 14.POWER 15.PLUTO 16. MILK OF THE SIREN here's is all of the tracks
Spider web is about peoples addiction to the internet and becoming obsessed with social media. One of the clever reasons why its called spider web is because of the world wide web or www
The fact that Light Shower isn't about a person but about this light people experienced between their life and death that just clean them from their traumas is beautiful
For the diamonds and rubies one, i think its about other people finding empowerment in her character, wearing her out, like as a rare jewel. Cuz i get the impression shes trying to give a perspective of the afterlife and empowerment for women too n stuff 🤷♀😊
Luscent their is singer I love her name is Upsahl she is a great singer song writer and she has not made a bad song I recommend her lady Jesus album and Sagittarius album as well I would love to see you react to just one of her songs
i love love love the way you talked about moon cycle because i also think that song is beautiful at talking about periods and how this figurative man is also turned on by her period. honestly loveee that song
Your reaction and explanation of Mel's song/music is what makes me follow you. You explained it well and you're not overreacting to it ❤ unlike others. 😅
Womb is a empowerment song to me It's like a recap or a recall of all the experiences of Crybaby past life regression and another new experience of rebirth going through shit and trauma and finding power within your past and building your cells and formulating to unlock different pieses of a puzzle. That is why life is death it's like a cycle repeating over and over. Her Repetition Era
Melanie talks in an interview about the meanings of each songs, you really should read it if you haven't already! I love seeing people reacting but it stresses me out when they're wrong about what the meaning is really 😭 Loved to watch you react 🍓
Leeches is about the people who feed off of artists and other famous people by putting allegation upon them... the people who cause drama so as to demean someone and get attention and gains through the artists or the person they've targeted. Battle of The Larynx is sort of a reply to all those people or "Leeches" in Melanie's life. She tells them to stop battling with her larynx (or throat) and using all of their words for a quick buck. They are sort of like "Clout Chasers" in a way lol. I was surprised seeing how much you were delving into the lyrics, and you got the meaning behind them very well! I loved this video and reaction the most out of everyone I've watched so far! :)
I randomly found your videos while searching for some Björk music videos and tbh I love your vibe so much, talking about music and listening to it with you seems so enjoyable and interesting 😄 (Also yeah, Artpop fan here)
Light Shower isn't about intimate sex , it's about the light that cleanses the soul , freeing it of it's trauma from the past life when it passes on translated into a romantic song about someone who cleanses you .
@@Theonetheoneonecunt yeah , i know . when she released the meaning of each song on her Instagram , that’s what she stated about light shower ; how it relates to the concept of a light that cleanses the soul of its past trauma and she turned it into a song to have a romantic double meaning so it could be related to in an earthly way
she also said there’s multiple meanings though so i think it’s good to have discussion. also a good song should be able to convey its meaning without explanation
i’m so tired of mel’s fans saying every single song is about someone she dated. Can’t we just say it’s about x type of relationship? also you’re wrong apparently it’s about a ray of light
Omgggg okay forgive me if you say this later cause I’m only at 9:54 right now but I had to pause to write this out cause I got excited lmao Your ideas around her releasing it now because of Easter and connecting all the religious imagery is genius and would be so cool if it turns out to be true! All the Goddess and Lilith mentions in K-12 and now the rebirth of Crybaby - is Crybaby the new Jesus?! 😂😱
one question but why do you have to persuade your thumbnail like that as if it’s an bad album bc that’s what most ppl gone assume when you first think or view your thumbnail as if it’s you don’t like it but your video watching says otherwise idk maybe the wondering is not it bc it’s not giving at all.
So far I didn't have a problem with her songs . There was not a single song I couldn't listen to. But honestly I couldn't not for the life of me listen to contortionist with my soul leaving my body ,the brone cracking sound effects made me so uncomfortable,and I removed the song from my playlist, I can understand your reaction to that song. Btw I really like your reaction videos.♥️

thank u for this!
wow, did you get all of this based on research of past life regression? I’ve never heard of it before so I was just curious
@@clairedixon5471 Melanie told about this in one of her recent interviews
Lovvvve reading explanations like this ❤
Oh wow so cool!!

It's gotta be the itsy bitsy spider ref haha
Yesss...! Omg
Death's bridge is the biggest "I'm back bish" slap thats ever made it hits so hard
36:30 “I love that sound” those are Melanie period cramps recorded on her phone!!!!
The ending of Leeches actually scared the shit out of me, like I thought someone was at my door
Fr
SAME BRO I WAS LISTENING TO IT IN MY CHAIR NEXT TO A FUCKING WINDW AT NIGHT
Luscent: “I am very sensitive to certain sounds”
Me: “Oh god, just wait til The Contortionist 🫢”
54:32
"That's key, right? Finally birthed, she's finally free. She's become this new human that she wanted to be."
MY MAN IS A POET
PLS CHECK OUT MY MUSIC hahahahaa
“I love that sound, sounds like a UFO rising”
Girlie- who’s gonna tell him
It’s blood coming out of a pussy and I’ve been listening to it because I got my period yesterday
i love how he’s genuinely enjoying himself😭
btw spider web is about internet addiction, something like that
I think The Contortionist is about doing “backbends” in a relationship. Sort of forcing yourself to go to drastic lengths in a relationship, for someone who wouldn’t do the same for you. “I pushed myself into a box while you held out a gun”

Spider web is about peoples addiction to the internet and becoming obsessed with social media. One of the clever reasons why its called spider web is because of the world wide web or www
and no one can leave once they merge ( THEY GET ADDICTED TO SCROLLING)
The death of crybaby is so interesting to me, reminds me of how Marina killed off Electra Heart after the album
Melanie has worked so hard on this project. This album is great. I'm excited to see where Melanie goes next.
The fact that Light Shower isn't about a person but about this light people experienced between their life and death that just clean them from their traumas is beautiful
the spider sound samples are the best😭
...best? 😅
funfact:Portal is the birth of YK12 when womb born crybaby and then crybaby died and there we have death "Starts in a womb ends in a grave"
“you start in the womb and end in the tomb.”
This is also my first time listening to most of these songs ugh I just love them all
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO KNOWS WHAT TALENT IS!
nymphology is just the best
SHE PRODUCED VOID BY HERSELF
For the diamonds and rubies one, i think its about other people finding empowerment in her character, wearing her out, like as a rare jewel. Cuz i get the impression shes trying to give a perspective of the afterlife and empowerment for women too n stuff 🤷♀😊

Idk why people don't like void, in my opinion void probably has the best vocals, and writing of hers yet
I’m waiting for the movie too!!!!!!!!! And I love the sounds of the 🐸 coqui a reference of her cultural background that’s in her music
I love how you understand her so much I feel you babe and love to see you

Love and sex and intertwined ❤️

Light Shower isn't about intimate sex , it's about the light that cleanses the soul , freeing it of it's trauma from the past life when it passes on translated into a romantic song about someone who cleanses you .
it has multiple meanings so it can be about both, plus let people interpret music the way they relate to it
I mean that's kinda what I said it was about but through the act of sex
Mel has dual meanings for her songs.
@@Theonetheoneonecunt yeah , i know . when she released the meaning of each song on her Instagram , that’s what she stated about light shower ; how it relates to the concept of a light that cleanses the soul of its past trauma and she turned it into a song to have a romantic double meaning so it could be related to in an earthly way
