I love how only Conrad is in the video and Michelle is nowhere to be seen besides the text messages. Beautifully done. Can't wait to see you in Europe. 🖤
its more powerful that way because it makes it seem like he is hearing dark voices when the entire time it was her... she was the devil on his shoulder whispering in his ear...
It's a dark world we live in. Skynd is not afraid to aim a spotlight at the place that we all like to pretend doesn't exist. I'm here for it. I love it. It's far past time that someone used art in a tasteful way to make us not forget that the real monsters aren't the ones under the bed.
This is exactly what I was thinking. This is true art...very well made, thought provoking and unsettling. The combination of which Makes IT fascinating. It reminds me of Edwin Morgan's poetry when he was writing snap shot poetry...No celebration nor condemnation just what happened at that particular moment. Bravo Skynd.
Yes, yes and yes! Most people are so afraid of the darkness and dark side of life and the psyche - it needs a place to be expressed freely. There have to be people that are unafraid of dealing with those things. It's essential. No light without shadow.
OH MY GOD I just realised something. I have goosebumps. At 3:38 when he says “I just don’t know how to leave them you know” he begins to get up and TAKE THE SCARF OFF! That’s representative of Conrad getting out of the car because he didn’t want to go through with it! Literally the hairs on my arms are standing to attention. And then for that awesome instrumental portion afterwards, “Michelle” has a *really* satisfied look on her face as the actor for Conrad begins to fall down to the floor again. Amazing. How many times I’ve listened to this song and watched this video and I haven’t caught that until now. Edit: I also reckon the part where she screams I love you now die at the end is when Michelle pretends she’s sad.
Can you imagine this psycho suing Skynd for using her texts, like "I wrote this, you copied my original work!" I have a huge dislike for Michelle. She's just terrible.
48 here! I love it too!! If you guys like SKYND, you may like Ice Nine Kills, it's more metal, but all the songs are horror themed and they're really good.
I'm a survivor of someone trying to do this very thing to me back in high school, and suppressed the memories of it until pretty recently. He believed that she really loved him and that this was the best thing for him. I think what saved me is I called her an hour after I took the pills and told her what I did. She sounded really annoyed when she said, "Well, go to the hospital." Thinking back, she knew there'd be a phone record...
Hopefully you let this person go and is no longer in your life. I had a similar occurrence myself, and it nearly drove me to suicide multiple times. People like that have absolutely no business or say so in your life, and don't deserve to be around if all they're going to do is coax you into being so miserable that the only thing that'll give you any sort of relief is just dying from your own hands.
This is art at a whole new level....for those that might be offended, remember that art is supposed to unsettle the comfortable and comfort the unsettled. Skyndicate for life!!!
I have a lot of respect for Skynd for how they represent the victims in their music videos instead of glorifying the perpetrators. Their music is always amazing and unique. Each time they release, it's like a ear worm that crawls into your head and can't get out. Every video gets put on repeat.
Yeah... what I thought, to my amazement, was that unlike what people have said about Billie Eilish and Lil Nas X, THIS is literally the new Marilyn Manson. It's dark. It's freaking scary. It's actually got deep meaning and a very important message put in an artistically satisfying way... way to go SKYND :D !!!
To make a song composedly entirely of her text messages is artistic freaking genius. And this video I actually cried. Especially the part 'turn it you'll be free, turn it on you'll be happy'. Just the symbolic representation of Conrad is heartbreaking. I struggle with mental illness/depression and this song man... hits me so hard. Very good job Skynd.
Honestly people like Michelle Carter deserve to be imprisoned for longer than she was given. If this kind of person starts pushing someone who's already on edge many people can die... I hope you will get well, remember that you matter
WHAT ??? I was expected to be use to their style and not to feel what I felt when I heard them for the first time. the truth ? It's still so creative !! I can't be use to it. I am not into murder things but this song, one more time, is pure art to my ears !! Awsome ! Congrats !
I love how she sways her hands during the "It will take 20 minutes" as if it is a give or take time. Michelle had no idea how long it would take. She just wanted it done.
Let's not forget that she too was a hurt young girl. You haven't been in love until you contemplated murder 😂. That being said, there she was where he tried to die and decided otherwise... a young man, and she told him to get back in the car? I don't know man. These lovers had it out and she wanted to remember it in a very bad way. I agree with the judge.
I still remember when this happened. The cold, heartless text messages make it hit even harder. Also, thank you for putting a link for getting help. I hope it prevents something like this from happening again for at least one person...
This video is just hauntingly beautiful. From the foggy atmosphere to the way they portray Conrad’s struggle/death. The way he moves with the scarf is chilling. I just want to say I greatly appreciate the level of thought and care that go into these videos. It can’t be easy to try and tell these stories the way you do but you do it beautifully. I hope Michelle is haunted forever by what she had done. RIP Conrad. You deserved so much better.
One of the many genius aspects of Skynd is how much creativity is put into the instruments and vocals. Not one sound is neglected. It really pulls out unique emotions into your psyche. High talent and vision.
I just watched the documentary "I love you, now die". her lawyer was convinced that it wasn't her fault but Michelle knew 100% of what she was doing. She pushed him to get back into that car, he was scared and started to back out and she ORDERED him to get back in the car and kill himself. I just don't understand why she never called the cops or even thought to get him some help. So tragic, rest in peace Conrad.
Probs cuz she was a psychopath that craved a feeling of power. She wanted to know if she could actually manipulate someone enough for them to take their own life. Sad.
This is honestly the most chilling song they've ever put out, for me personally. Suicide is an extremely personal matter to me and the idea that someone would take advantage of someone in one of the darkest places a person can possibly go is a terrifying thought. That said, this might also be my favorite song they've put out to date.
I’ve struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts since my teens and if I turned to someone to voice how I was feeling and they pushed me to do it the way she did with Conrad, I wouldn’t be here. Thankfully, I had people in my life that actually cared about me. Poor Conrad wasn’t so lucky.
Also, I imagine it to be quite grating after some time to deal with someone who keeps going on and on and on about wanting to commit suicide and then chickening out at the last moment. Especially when you're not mentally well yourself. Who knows how many times he'd done that before. Maybe she really did think death would be the better option. Maybe she did try getting him help before but he refused. We don't know everything. What she did was wrong, yes, but she's not some evil being to me. I honestly kind of get where she might have been coming from.
@@kam-lw4ez EXACTLY!!! Honestly I’m shocked that this girl has more haters than most ACTUAL cold-blooded murderers. When I was in high school my best friend was the only one I opened up to about wanting to cease my existence, so she was supportive and she found these left over pills for seizures that I could OD on because I told her that if that was an option that’s how I’d go. I she gave me them and told me if I really felt like I couldn’t go on she understood and I could at least go with dignity. Although I decided not to take the pills and that was over 6 years ago I’m really not upset at all at that friend because she understood that sometimes true “help” is to not try to prolong the suffering. It honestly makes me upset that if I had killed myself that friend probably would’ve been painted as some sort of monster by the media
@@Conssumed Said no documentary producer, or observer ever. You should see how far you get with with those words against all of those crime documentaries. I LOVE music. I wouldn't watch a crime documentary or news post to save my life. But I sure in the hell with listen to music anywhere possible. Everything SKYND produced I knew nothing about other then maybe a name or two. I looked into the stuff after hearing SKYND's material. This is art, and should be supported. The art universe sometimes showed the darkest topics, and shares the darkest events. And the information was hardly private. It was made public when released by authorities. You would be surprised how much criminal information is public record.
@@Michael-jw6et Yeah but inspiration and how it's used in art is different than real life. A person might quite enjoy the LSD song or even enjoy LSD, but also acknowledge that they are in fact addicted. And if they see their fav artist recommending addiction helplines, they will most likely try them. That's what I think
@@Michael-jw6et It's not "dark, suicidal music" though. They're spreading awareness that the victim was in a VERY tough place in his life and others might be too, hence the mental health resources. He felt he had no other choice and others might feel the exact same way. There's absolutely nothing lame about them telling a story of someone who was in an immensely dark spot in their lives, and the only help they received was their loved one telling them to go on and commit. Skynd are spreading awareness, not glorifying suicide.
And 7 years later she gets to live the rest of her life, with Conrad Roy a blip on her life screen... something is so wrong with this, he was backing out and shamed him/ bullied him... such a sad, sad story... rest in God's Arms Conrad; you had so much going for you, except the love of a family who cared about you, and friends who were actually enemies...my heart is just broken when I think of what you went through without a soul who mattered to you, on your side... seeing how happy you were, on the day you were promoted to captain, you wanted to live... sleep with the angels dear child, God's with you now ❤🤍💙
pfft, "her sins". This is actually the weakest and least interesting topic and character out of the band's videos yet. "Her sin" is that they both were edgy teenagers with mental issues and both of them were on psychiatric medication and both of them had suicidal tendencies, so, like, what's so special about this? A suicidal girl urged a suicidal guy to commit suicide and he commits it... what a surprise. Meanwhile such character like Gertrude Baniszewski exists (she was a babysitter who convinced 10-15 year old kids to torture and murder a girl called Sylvia Likens that she was supposed to look after for several months, and forced Sylvia's own sister to take part in systematic several month-long torture)
Monsters are created by humans, they live out their deepest desires. They are like a mirror in that sense. Sounds cheesy but Scooby Doo. No monsters, humans dressed up.
You do understand every song they come out with is a serial killer or a bizarre murder case like this one where a girl bullied her boyfriend to commit suicide until he actually did it and that's why they came out with a cyber bullying laws to stop it so this band all they do is they take facts from serial killer cases and manipulating into the lyrics
We live in a world where everyone is so obsessed with the killer, this leads to never knowing the victims, or even their names. I love that Conrad is the only one In this video, he's story always breaks my heart. SKYND always makes the victims story heard in their videos ,and tries their best to keep it respectful. RIP. Conrad.
Beautifully done, a haunting song portraying the tragic and needless death of a boy with a lost soul, he needed help instead of been told to die. Thank you SKYND ❤🖤❤
It's almost 2 years since I discovered SKYND and Wacken 2019... still best band out there that deserves all the recognition. Hoping for a proper label to notice and eventual Album release. Please add Ireland to the gig list!
Labels unfortunately end up creating an identity that the artist is not. There are a few artists that I had fallen in love with prior to being signed. After they've been signed it's like, who the hell is this??? Although, there may be a few black sheep labels that allow the creativity and original personas to exist, but they are usually created by the artists themselves backed by a producer whose interest is in the artists and not how to assimilate into the mainstream fad.
ну как сказать. я местами вижу что-то близкое к айспик. да и данную группу нашел после заслушивания их песен. не силён в жанрах и поджанрах современной музыки, поэтому отношу обе группы к одному жанру. если нетрудно, подскажите еще каких-то исполнителей в тёмной электроньщине? спасибо.
This music video is incredible. I think the cloth over Conrad’s face is Michelle’s and it represents how she basically suffocated him. It’s such a sad case and it’s horrible how Michelle got out of jail early
the fact that the music video seems so simple and at the same time is thought out from the start to an end, makes it - as always - amazing. there are no random elements here and that's absolutely stunning
at first i asked myself why didn't they use a white scarf the same color as the air in his truck but then i realized the flower pattern is more chilling because its pretty and innocent and this is how conrad viewed michelle and the scarf is basically michelle wrapping around him making him die... it fits...and artistically creative
Texas tour dates STAT! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SKYND...a thousand-million-billion-trillion times...PLEASE SKYND!!! I'll be the one in the front row screaming...THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU SKYND...a thousand-million-billion-zillion times...THANK YOU SKYND!!! 🤘❤️🔥🤘
Everytime I say to myself that this band can't surprise me anymore and I'm always wrong. So much talent, creativity, a good research and BOOM a masterpiece. You're amazing as always
I love how Skynd's makeup in each video represents something about the crime. In the video for Tyler Hadley, it was a big "NO" and a big clown like smile, representing the triggers/motives for his actions. (He was restricted by his parents and then went for the crazy freedom of a party). In this one, it's entire white, no black lipstick or anything. My interpretation of it is that Michelle thought she was innocent and pure because she didn't get her hands dirty. Plus it adds to the overall foggyness that is of the form of death that Conrad suffered.
To me this isn’t music. It’s a symphony. It’s a story. She’s a great artist, she knows how to take something so dark & turn it around into a story. Alway love this! Keep it coming!!
Yes, but let's not forger 'Father' the other band member that writes the music. He is never seen, but he is the one that writes and arranges the music.
Как я ждала новых клипов и песен. Музыка которая имеет смысл, а клипы помогают совместить звук и представление. Шикарно как всегда. Это можно смотреть бесконечно. Спасибо большое за ваше творчество!
When she says "I love you" I get uncomfortable chills. Its so eerie and enchanting at the same time, like a spell is being cast. It's deeply unsettling how the sweetest words you can hear can be used to hurt someone. This song is about a woman who literally used them to destroy another human being. Christ.
the way the song is almost as if he is hearing dark voices in his head when in reality its his friend/own girlfriend... she was the devil sitting on his shoulder whispering in his ear....
I just somehow found SKYND and I can't stop watching this mesmerizing. brilliant mix of sounds and images like nothing I have EVER seen and heard. This and Columbine I just keep looping!
A hauntingly beautiful song. You really proved yourself with this song that you don't want to glorify the killings. You want people to remember what happend so that it will never happen again. Also the male figure in the video is extremely beautiful with his movements. The whole video is perfect with the song.
i love their art... they are very respectful in my opinion... the videos are more powerful than the song... i think jim jones is one of their best but like em all
@@kimmyfreak200 I get what you mean. Their songs are art. It's research and finding a way to make the song respectful and making sure nobody will forget it. I hope Skynd will get the recognition they deserve.
SKYND shines a light on many crimes that otherwise would be forgotten. She brings the victims to life and gives them a place, a meaning. I really don't know how to explain it. She brings the emotional and pain through art and dance. She is a genius, and I can't go a day without listening to them. I will say I have a favorite but I love them all. Chris Watts hits different though. Different style, I think because it was children She has the tone set different. It made me tear up...males me tear up every time I listen.
I once stopped someone from ending it just by texting them out of the blue, back in HS. We ended up hugging it out. Last time we spoke he's doing much better and in a good state of mind. This song hit me different than all the others.
Thank you for being a decent human being, and having a heart. Sometimes all it takes for someone to turn their lives around is to be heard. Sometimes people with depression find ot easier to talk to people outside the family. Such a shame Conrad found someone who encouraged him to end it all. 😢
Omg, I can't imagine those weight on your shoulders. It feels unreal I guess, but also horrible to having such an influence. That bitch M.C probably felt like God.
@@c2e.7877 he told me he was holding a scissor to his chest. I felt the scissor and the pain. Anxiety and stress manifested in the form of his soon to be actions.
Can we take a moment to appreciate how beautiful she looks here with those lashes? I’m always so in love with her aesthetic but dayum she looks frighteningly hot in this one.
Omg how did I go this long without realizing you'd made another masterpiece? Every single one sends shivers down my spine. Jim Jones makes me cry like a baby just realizing the words were what all those people heard. Now I gotta add this one to what makes me cry. Skynd is genius
Just wow... every song SKYND make hits so hard. Amazing visual, amazing music. I don’t think it will ever be possible to be disappointed with this great band 🥺 Thank you SKYND. Love from France 🖤
This one hits really hard. I didn't watch the HBO documentary beforehand so I did a bit of research and I stumbled upon the texts transcripts and it broke my heart... She was obsessed with "helping" him end his life. Everyday they talked, she tried to push him... The sick thing is, she claimed she loved him and wouldn't ever leave him while trying to convince him to commit suicide. The poor guy was desperate and he died thinking at least his girlfriend cared about him. I probably wouldn't be there anymore if it weren't for my girlfriend that somehow managed to make me want to live again. And it breaks my heart to see such a grim and twisted version of what I've lived.
Потрясающая работа! Плачу каждый раз, смотря этот клип... Музыка и вокал трогают до глубины души, эмоции, которые передаёт певица, бесподобны. Отдельно хочу оценить невероятный визуал, работу танцора, белое пальто и грим, символизирующие невинность Мишель... И эта цветная вуаль, которая душит Конрада. Это потрясающе.
''Turn it on you'll be free, Turn it on you'll be happy''. This line the first time I heard it made me bawl my eyes out. Ive been going through a REALLY hard time recently.....I want to be happy and I just don't seem how to be :(
So much beauty in so much darkness. Like a broken masterpiece. May skynd's voice be the help you need to face the angel of darkness. This is the art that helps me face the demons.
Having been there myself before, when news of the case came forward, it was damaging on another level. Hearing this brought me to tears, but for the tribute to Conrad. And that we will never forget what a monster she is. R.I.P. Conrad. Thank you SKYND.
The fact she included text between both of them to show how dark and twisted and sad this story truly was a young man struggling with depression and someone he trusted pushing him to do something he questioned he wanted to do is heartbreaking skynd is such a great story teller
Nevermind my earlier comment I actually now get it from watching other videos from Skynd, each song is about a killer or murder that happened, I'm new to Skynd, but instantly I'm in awe
Something I find extremely disturbing about the text is “it’ll take 20 minutes” “you keep pushing it off” sounds as casual as he’s been putting off getting milk from the corner store. Skynd of course highlights that with their amazing production.
Ikr, like it's an everyday thing. Also manipulation with the "pushing it off". And giving safety "it'll take 20 minutes", it's easy, fast and "painless". She knew what she did. Reduced sentences due to good behaviour need to vanish, they are rubbish.
@@gehenna6350 She got this sentence because I think she was 17 at the time and female with this good girl personality. Then she was released earlier as I mentioned because of good behaviour. She is free for about a year now and now in her early 20's. I don't care to look her up tbh.
@@KtVogtF find a good reason to stay alive. I'm also suicidal, but I don't harm myself because I love myself too much to harm. Like I live for art, for the beauty of this world. It can be everything, your family, the night sky, paintings, buildings, music etc.
I discovered this band by accident, and it was a phenomenal discovery, a very cool and different band. Man this woman really scares me, which is amazing for a band! And the fact that each song is from a real story is really fascinating.
I’m in a dark place right now and wanna be in a mind set where I can be excited to watch/listen to this I just don’t care about anything right now. I’ve been too patient and they’ve worked too hard for anything less. I already know I’ll love it. I hope I snap out of it soon cause I love skynd so much! Cheers to the rest of the skyndicate!
Stay strong and try to see the silver lining, remember everything happens for a reason and darkness can't exist without light. Everything goes in circles - the good times and excitement will return. Be well, take care, and let Skynd + other art you enjoy help you get through the rough patches...
Thanks people....Im better and i fucking LOVE this song

I just don't understand why she never called the cops or even thought to get him some help. So tragic, rest in peace Conrad.
Look at all videos in relation people defend her and sympathise with her. We know why this is
Probs cuz she was a psychopath that craved a feeling of power. She wanted to know if she could actually manipulate someone enough for them to take their own life. Sad.
This is honestly the most chilling song they've ever put out, for me personally. Suicide is an extremely personal matter to me and the idea that someone would take advantage of someone in one of the darkest places a person can possibly go is a terrifying thought. That said, this might also be my favorite song they've put out to date.
It's more complicated than that though
I’ve struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts since my teens and if I turned to someone to voice how I was feeling and they pushed me to do it the way she did with Conrad, I wouldn’t be here. Thankfully, I had people in my life that actually cared about me. Poor Conrad wasn’t so lucky.
Also, I imagine it to be quite grating after some time to deal with someone who keeps going on and on and on about wanting to commit suicide and then chickening out at the last moment. Especially when you're not mentally well yourself. Who knows how many times he'd done that before. Maybe she really did think death would be the better option. Maybe she did try getting him help before but he refused. We don't know everything. What she did was wrong, yes, but she's not some evil being to me. I honestly kind of get where she might have been coming from.
@@kam-lw4ez EXACTLY!!! Honestly I’m shocked that this girl has more haters than most ACTUAL cold-blooded murderers. When I was in high school my best friend was the only one I opened up to about wanting to cease my existence, so she was supportive and she found these left over pills for seizures that I could OD on because I told her that if that was an option that’s how I’d go. I she gave me them and told me if I really felt like I couldn’t go on she understood and I could at least go with dignity. Although I decided not to take the pills and that was over 6 years ago I’m really not upset at all at that friend because she understood that sometimes true “help” is to not try to prolong the suffering. It honestly makes me upset that if I had killed myself that friend probably would’ve been painted as some sort of monster by the media
A lot of the lyrics is words she said to him.
the fact they put mental health resources in the description 🥺🥺💞💞 i just love skynd so much 💞
i just watched the docu this song was based off of the same title...very sad very heavy $hit...
Profiting off a private conversation that happened years ago making a song using the lyrics haha this is wack
@@Conssumed Said no documentary producer, or observer ever. You should see how far you get with with those words against all of those crime documentaries. I LOVE music. I wouldn't watch a crime documentary or news post to save my life. But I sure in the hell with listen to music anywhere possible. Everything SKYND produced I knew nothing about other then maybe a name or two. I looked into the stuff after hearing SKYND's material.
This is art, and should be supported. The art universe sometimes showed the darkest topics, and shares the darkest events.
And the information was hardly private. It was made public when released by authorities. You would be surprised how much criminal information is public record.
@@Michael-jw6et Yeah but inspiration and how it's used in art is different than real life. A person might quite enjoy the LSD song or even enjoy LSD, but also acknowledge that they are in fact addicted. And if they see their fav artist recommending addiction helplines, they will most likely try them. That's what I think
@@Michael-jw6et It's not "dark, suicidal music" though. They're spreading awareness that the victim was in a VERY tough place in his life and others might be too, hence the mental health resources. He felt he had no other choice and others might feel the exact same way. There's absolutely nothing lame about them telling a story of someone who was in an immensely dark spot in their lives, and the only help they received was their loved one telling them to go on and commit. Skynd are spreading awareness, not glorifying suicide.
This woman is an amazing artist! The research, production, and storytelling are top notch.
SKYND never disappoints, damn. Watched the HBO documentary preparing for this and it was definitely worth it.
Same here. The video is pretty much in the style of the documentary.
@@pawtile9434 The subject
I watched the same one today too! Not disappointed at all :)
I love how the music always builds up to the event and in a weird way pays respect to the victims. It's chilling
EXACTLY!
That's correct. But I would like it better if the songs are named after the victims and not the murderers.
@@joerngudat That would be a bit tricky with the serial killers she's done. High profile cases are named after the suspects it's seldom victims.
@@FallAngl177 Or after the main place - like Columbine. Etc.
And 7 years later she gets to live the rest of her life, with Conrad Roy a blip on her life screen... something is so wrong with this, he was backing out and shamed him/ bullied him... such a sad, sad story... rest in God's Arms Conrad; you had so much going for you, except the love of a family who cared about you, and friends who were actually enemies...my heart is just broken when I think of what you went through without a soul who mattered to you, on your side... seeing how happy you were, on the day you were promoted to captain, you wanted to live... sleep with the angels dear child, God's with you now ❤🤍💙
This song is a permanent monument to her sins. May it last forever. May she never know peace. AMEN!!!!!!!
pfft, "her sins". This is actually the weakest and least interesting topic and character out of the band's videos yet. "Her sin" is that they both were edgy teenagers with mental issues and both of them were on psychiatric medication and both of them had suicidal tendencies, so, like, what's so special about this? A suicidal girl urged a suicidal guy to commit suicide and he commits it... what a surprise. Meanwhile such character like Gertrude Baniszewski exists (she was a babysitter who convinced 10-15 year old kids to torture and murder a girl called Sylvia Likens that she was supposed to look after for several months, and forced Sylvia's own sister to take part in systematic several month-long torture)
She pushed him because she wanted the attention, what?@@MetalPhantom7
"When I was a child, monsters scared me. Then I realized humans are much worse."
When you realise humans are the monsters, your self worth depreciates and you realise you are capable of the same sadistic acts
@@pho3nix damn this was beautiful. Both of you 🌹
All monsters are human.
Monsters are created by humans, they live out their deepest desires. They are like a mirror in that sense. Sounds cheesy but Scooby Doo. No monsters, humans dressed up.
@@giorgiathomsen6487
Just a fact. ;)
oh god, every song they put out is such a masterpiece
Every song and damn video, without fail!!!!
They cant keep getting away with it. But I hope they do.
Agreed!!!
I’m obsessed 🖤
You do understand every song they come out with is a serial killer or a bizarre murder case like this one where a girl bullied her boyfriend to commit suicide until he actually did it and that's why they came out with a cyber bullying laws to stop it so this band all they do is they take facts from serial killer cases and manipulating into the lyrics
Wow. Knowing the background of the song and then to see the man atruggle and then stop moving hit me a lot harder than I expected. Brilliant. 😢
We live in a world where everyone is so obsessed with the killer, this leads to never knowing the victims, or even their names. I love that Conrad is the only one In this video, he's story always breaks my heart. SKYND always makes the victims story heard in their videos ,and tries their best to keep it respectful. RIP. Conrad.
His story*
Well said 🖤
I didn't think they did that with the Columbine video really, but idk.
Can you describe how this video and "song" are respectful to Conrad?
@@knulladig1974 an awareness to a societal problem.
Beautifully done, a haunting song portraying the tragic and needless death of a boy with a lost soul, he needed help instead of been told to die. Thank you SKYND ❤🖤❤
Completely obsessed with this video. The dancer, Maxime, is absolutely brilliant. His interpretation of Conrad dying is tragically beautiful.
It's almost 2 years since I discovered SKYND and Wacken 2019... still best band out there that deserves all the recognition. Hoping for a proper label to notice and eventual Album release. Please add Ireland to the gig list!
They don't need a label, that just takes control away.
Labels unfortunately end up creating an identity that the artist is not. There are a few artists that I had fallen in love with prior to being signed. After they've been signed it's like, who the hell is this??? Although, there may be a few black sheep labels that allow the creativity and original personas to exist, but they are usually created by the artists themselves backed by a producer whose interest is in the artists and not how to assimilate into the mainstream fad.
Потрясающая и уникальная музыкальная группа. Подобных нет. Исполнение, смысл, потрясающий клип. Браво. Спасибо, SKYND, за такую работу
ну как сказать. я местами вижу что-то близкое к айспик. да и данную группу нашел после заслушивания их песен. не силён в жанрах и поджанрах современной музыки, поэтому отношу обе группы к одному жанру. если нетрудно, подскажите еще каких-то исполнителей в тёмной электроньщине? спасибо.
@@Igor-yb7iz crystal castles, возможно
@@АнастасияСиницына-з6н спасибо, погуглю позже
This music video is incredible. I think the cloth over Conrad’s face is Michelle’s and it represents how she basically suffocated him. It’s such a sad case and it’s horrible how Michelle got out of jail early
She also wore outfits with flower prints on them during the trial!
She never should’ve been released
the fact that the music video seems so simple and at the same time is thought out from the start to an end, makes it - as always - amazing.
there are no random elements here and that's absolutely stunning
Ну наконец-то!! Чёрт возьми, все их клипы гениальны. Жуть как страшен смысл, но охренеть как всё это звучит) Обожаю ребят)
Раньше любимый клип из их творчества был Tyler Hadley.
Теперь будет этот ).
Поддерживаю, они прекрасны👍
Интересно, как родственники погибших относятся к их творчеству. Это же все таки использование чужого горя.
@@GaneshaCat-pm7ps - а майское празднование каждый год? По мне так тоже использование чужого горя!(((
@@selfish8653 что за нелепое сравнение. Где аналогия, между одним и другим. Видимо, вы человек с абсолютно размытыми границами.
can we appreciate the fact that SKYND took most of Michelle's texts that she send to Conrad and put in the music?
@@dootdoot94xo44 thats what i am saying, why you like your own comments
That's all this song is... lol. Just her text messages in song? How is that creative? lol
@@ImSnorlax You sound slightly paranoid.... I "liked" their comment lol...
they made the perfect choice
I think that’s why it’s one of my favorite SKYND songs. It has so much source material.
Leave it to Skynd to make not only the best music video, but also turn it into the best lyric video at the same time!
Didn't write the lyrics though lmao
There's really nothing special about this clip.
This is the lyrics are the text messages exchanged between Michelle Carter and her suicide boyfriend. She encouraged him to kill himself.
holy shit the part starting at 3:10 is so chilling and fits so well in this song, this one feels like its having hip-hop/rap with metal vibes
4:37...if you blink you'll miss it, but just another reason why SKYNDs videos are so epic!
Is it because father is in the background?

@@1travinraine61 *CO
Hell is empty, all its demons are on Earth. Thank you Skynd for digging them up! Love the song, can't wait for Chapter 3...
Hmmm 🤔. Interesting dichotomy you
Write
As always, incredible visuals, superb track. I just love what you're doing since day one. ⚜️
at first i asked myself why didn't they use a white scarf the same color as the air in his truck but then i realized the flower pattern is more chilling because its pretty and innocent and this is how conrad viewed michelle and the scarf is basically michelle wrapping around him making him die... it fits...and artistically creative
Texas tour dates STAT!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE SKYND...a thousand-million-billion-trillion times...PLEASE SKYND!!!
I'll be the one in the front row screaming...THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU SKYND...a thousand-million-billion-zillion times...THANK YOU SKYND!!!
🤘❤️🔥🤘
This couldn't be more breathtaking.
ITS TIME NOW.
This band deserves to be world-famous
Слухаю закритими очима ні про що не мислю це шедевр ❤
Да, вот только смысл этих песен печален... Основаны все эти песни на страшных и к сожалению реальных событиях.
Everytime I say to myself that this band can't surprise me anymore and I'm always wrong. So much talent, creativity, a good research and BOOM a masterpiece. You're amazing as always
I love how Skynd's makeup in each video represents something about the crime.
In the video for Tyler Hadley, it was a big "NO" and a big clown like smile, representing the triggers/motives for his actions. (He was restricted by his parents and then went for the crazy freedom of a party).
In this one, it's entire white, no black lipstick or anything. My interpretation of it is that Michelle thought she was innocent and pure because she didn't get her hands dirty. Plus it adds to the overall foggyness that is of the form of death that Conrad suffered.
Amazing interpretation ♥️
Lips pale from suffocation
And the black eyes represent the evil in her actions
I love it. And the black, demonic face behind her is her true intentions.
I think you're aboslutely spot on there.
This one will alway be my favorite, cause it reminds me how easily this could happen to me. It's almost like a warning whenever I listen to it.
To me this isn’t music. It’s a symphony. It’s a story. She’s a great artist, she knows how to take something so dark & turn it around into a story. Alway love this! Keep it coming!!
Yes, but let's not forger 'Father' the other band member that writes the music. He is never seen, but he is the one that writes and arranges the music.
Как я ждала новых клипов и песен. Музыка которая имеет смысл, а клипы помогают совместить звук и представление. Шикарно как всегда. Это можно смотреть бесконечно. Спасибо большое за ваше творчество!
When she says "I love you" I get uncomfortable chills. Its so eerie and enchanting at the same time, like a spell is being cast. It's deeply unsettling how the sweetest words you can hear can be used to hurt someone. This song is about a woman who literally used them to destroy another human being. Christ.
the way the song is almost as if he is hearing dark voices in his head when in reality its his friend/own girlfriend... she was the devil sitting on his shoulder whispering in his ear....
Черт возьми, наконец-то вышел новый клип! Спасибо Вам, Вы гении своего дела;))
I just somehow found SKYND and I can't stop watching this mesmerizing. brilliant mix of sounds and images like nothing I have EVER seen and heard. This and Columbine I just keep looping!
When I got emails from you with new song I feel like I'm in some elite sect and I like this feeling
Lol
SKYND Elite, the SKYNless
As long as you stay away from the Flavor Aid...
Just joined and...same
You are, it's called the Skyndicate :P
Божественно)),очередная песня до мурашек и громкости в наушниках на максимум )))
Outside of opera, Skynd has one of the most beautiful alto voices i've ever heard. Amazing video as well.
She's not an alto, her voice is distorted during the low parts
Как всегда шикарно
Была очень рада увидеть новый клип с утра)
A hauntingly beautiful song. You really proved yourself with this song that you don't want to glorify the killings. You want people to remember what happend so that it will never happen again.
Also the male figure in the video is extremely beautiful with his movements. The whole video is perfect with the song.
i love their art... they are very respectful in my opinion... the videos are more powerful than the song... i think jim jones is one of their best but like em all
@@kimmyfreak200 I get what you mean. Their songs are art. It's research and finding a way to make the song respectful and making sure nobody will forget it.
I hope Skynd will get the recognition they deserve.
SKYND shines a light on many crimes that otherwise would be forgotten. She brings the victims to life and gives them a place, a meaning. I really don't know how to explain it. She brings the emotional and pain through art and dance. She is a genius, and I can't go a day without listening to them. I will say I have a favorite but I love them all. Chris Watts hits different though. Different style, I think because it was children She has the tone set different. It made me tear up...males me tear up every time I listen.
I once stopped someone from ending it just by texting them out of the blue, back in HS. We ended up hugging it out. Last time we spoke he's doing much better and in a good state of mind. This song hit me different than all the others.
It feels really weird to have someones life in your hands right? In one snap you can totally change everything...
Thank you for being a decent human being, and having a heart. Sometimes all it takes for someone to turn their lives around is to be heard. Sometimes people with depression find ot easier to talk to people outside the family. Such a shame Conrad found someone who encouraged him to end it all. 😢
Bless you, dear.
Omg, I can't imagine those weight on your shoulders. It feels unreal I guess, but also horrible to having such an influence. That bitch M.C probably felt like God.
@@c2e.7877 he told me he was holding a scissor to his chest. I felt the scissor and the pain. Anxiety and stress manifested in the form of his soon to be actions.
Can we take a moment to appreciate how beautiful she looks here with those lashes? I’m always so in love with her aesthetic but dayum she looks frighteningly hot in this one.
I agree she is hauntingly beautiful I love her
yup
Oh wait it's a she? Bruh i'm so stupid I thought it was a dude lol
My first thought ! I was thinking she looked sooooo pretty...took me a second or 2 to notice that it was her fluttery lashes!
@@Kalposia1056 think the auto tune deceived you... was probably like damn he's pretty lol
Omg how did I go this long without realizing you'd made another masterpiece? Every single one sends shivers down my spine. Jim Jones makes me cry like a baby just realizing the words were what all those people heard. Now I gotta add this one to what makes me cry. Skynd is genius
Just wow... every song SKYND make hits so hard. Amazing visual, amazing music. I don’t think it will ever be possible to be disappointed with this great band 🥺 Thank you SKYND. Love from France 🖤
SKYND, I love you, never die.
I can't get enough of this storytelling at its best. Thank you for your creativity, intelligence, and hard work.
Урааа! Дождались!
Как я скучал по вашей музыке, от которой мурашки по коже пробегают😈
Skynd never disappoints. Every songnis brilliance.
The amount of research, dedication and craftsmanship that goes into SKYNDs music is absolutely incredible. You guys are so, so talented it's unreal.
Are you capable of releasing a bad song? I don't think you are. This once again, absolutley slaps! Great job!
This one hits really hard. I didn't watch the HBO documentary beforehand so I did a bit of research and I stumbled upon the texts transcripts and it broke my heart... She was obsessed with "helping" him end his life. Everyday they talked, she tried to push him... The sick thing is, she claimed she loved him and wouldn't ever leave him while trying to convince him to commit suicide. The poor guy was desperate and he died thinking at least his girlfriend cared about him.
I probably wouldn't be there anymore if it weren't for my girlfriend that somehow managed to make me want to live again. And it breaks my heart to see such a grim and twisted version of what I've lived.
Потрясающая работа! Плачу каждый раз, смотря этот клип... Музыка и вокал трогают до глубины души, эмоции, которые передаёт певица, бесподобны. Отдельно хочу оценить невероятный визуал, работу танцора, белое пальто и грим, символизирующие невинность Мишель... И эта цветная вуаль, которая душит Конрада. Это потрясающе.
Holy crap, this one is darker than the serial killer based ones...
I love it!
Yes, darker. And more impressive.
Visually stunning, so pulled back but extremely powerful and agreed SKYND never disappoints
Thank you for making Conrad's story immortal. That's the true power of art. And I believe one day I'll be able to watch this video without crying.
Познакомилась с этой шикарной группой, благодаря рекламе в инсте.. Теперь я ваш фанат, первый раз мне понравились абсолютно все песни

''Turn it on you'll be free, Turn it on you'll be happy''. This line the first time I heard it made me bawl my eyes out. Ive been going through a REALLY hard time recently.....I want to be happy and I just don't seem how to be :(
hey you good
Hope you're feeling better
So much beauty in so much darkness. Like a broken masterpiece. May skynd's voice be the help you need to face the angel of darkness. This is the art that helps me face the demons.
This case was one that really broke my heart, honestly.
Having been there myself before, when news of the case came forward, it was damaging on another level. Hearing this brought me to tears, but for the tribute to Conrad. And that we will never forget what a monster she is. R.I.P. Conrad. Thank you SKYND.
I didn't think Skynd could top themselves. I am an idiot. I actually got tears on this one.
Вот прям радует регулярностью выхода свежего контента!
The fact she included text between both of them to show how dark and twisted and sad this story truly was a young man struggling with depression and someone he trusted pushing him to do something he questioned he wanted to do is heartbreaking skynd is such a great story teller
If you do US tour please don’t forget Louisville, Kentucky!! Another masterpiece!!!
Yes!!!!!!
Better not forget us lol
Beautiful work SKYND. Rest in peace Conrad Roy.
Nevermind my earlier comment I actually now get it from watching other videos from Skynd, each song is about a killer or murder that happened, I'm new to Skynd, but instantly I'm in awe
Something I find extremely disturbing about the text is “it’ll take 20 minutes” “you keep pushing it off” sounds as casual as he’s been putting off getting milk from the corner store. Skynd of course highlights that with their amazing production.
Ikr, like it's an everyday thing. Also manipulation with the "pushing it off". And giving safety "it'll take 20 minutes", it's easy, fast and "painless". She knew what she did. Reduced sentences due to good behaviour need to vanish, they are rubbish.
@Tim M I'm so lazy and filled with anxiety to get bread when the store is about 5 mins away.
Seems reasonable to me, as someone who has been suicidal about 50% of my life
@@gehenna6350 She got this sentence because I think she was 17 at the time and female with this good girl personality. Then she was released earlier as I mentioned because of good behaviour. She is free for about a year now and now in her early 20's. I don't care to look her up tbh.
@@KtVogtF find a good reason to stay alive. I'm also suicidal, but I don't harm myself because I love myself too much to harm. Like I live for art, for the beauty of this world. It can be everything, your family, the night sky, paintings, buildings, music etc.
She never stop surprising me, she is AMAZING
Her standing still during the instrumental where he dies in the video is SO POWERFUL. I want to go to her show one day, they seem GREAT live!
This song is chilling and haunting, definitely captured the coldness and callousness of this case 🤘.
Дождались! Как и ожидалось, получился очередной шедевр!
I discovered this band by accident, and it was a phenomenal discovery, a very cool and different band. Man this woman really scares me, which is amazing for a band! And the fact that each song is from a real story is really fascinating.
I’m in a dark place right now and wanna be in a mind set where I can be excited to watch/listen to this I just don’t care about anything right now. I’ve been too patient and they’ve worked too hard for anything less. I already know I’ll love it. I hope I snap out of it soon cause I love skynd so much! Cheers to the rest of the skyndicate!
I relate to how you feel, I wish you the best and to soon feel joy again
Stay strong and try to see the silver lining, remember everything happens for a reason and darkness can't exist without light. Everything goes in circles - the good times and excitement will return. Be well, take care, and let Skynd + other art you enjoy help you get through the rough patches...
Thanks people....Im better and i fucking LOVE this song
And the queen returns... Great art work. The direction, the choreography, the impact and the verses... There are so many good things in just 5 minutes... You're getting better and better. Be proud.

The more I watch this video, the more I am impressed by its concept, production quality and editing. This is definitely one of the best music videos I've seen lately.
