I feel like she looked exactly like this coming up with this song, sitting on her bedroom floor with a bunch of instruments and fancy toys and creating beautiful madness.
I don't know if it's true but I heard that she made the entirety of this song on her iPad using the garage band app.
Damn, your fedora sucks
I’m pretty she wrote it during that 2 month period where she was living in a crack den and sustaining herself completely off of hotdogs
@@le3ks989 it is true that Grimes made the entirety of Visions using GarageBand, but it was made on her Mac not an iPad. She also made Halfaxa and Geidi Primes using it. People seem to forget GarageBand was a Mac app long before iPads even existed lol
@@Odd_Combo no it doesn't fedoras are cool
at first i wasn't sure about her music but as i started to listen to her more and more i sort of became addicted to her music.
me too
Monica Aparicio same lmao
Same
Monica Aparicio Me too!!
@@chance4746 Me too!!
Imagine being X Æ A-12 and Grimes sings you to sleep this 😌
Lucky kid
everyone’s giving him sympathy bc of his name but he’s the s o n of g r i m e s
@@weirdo66636 the son of Grimes and Elon Musk with a cool ass name- that kid is golden
Cookie exactly. plus, he’s gonna have a whole lotta money growing up. y’all gotta stop giving him sympathy
@@weirdo66636 you completely misunderstood my comment, I was trying to say that being him would be so cool ✌
This is, by far, her best song. It has a heart. It feels true.
deloreanized all her songs feel true
@@weirdo66636 I'm afraid I can't agree with you on that.
I definitely disagree this is by far her best song. Oblivion, Flesh Without Blood, My Sister Says the Saddest things, World Princess II, Kill v Maim, Pin, she has a lot of genuinely great songs
Have you heard Skin?
This comment .
she freehand holds the mics in a xy pattern for added echo and "distanced" vocal effect. genius.
ShootsDenBrah what does that mean
Julia E she holds the mic farther or closer depending on the effect she wants to get (farther meaning more echo or ‘distance’)
No, the one with the red piece of tape is going through the looper, the other isn't.
@@totallypixelated This. She probably also has different effects on each. When doing XY patterns with microphones you dont sing directly into one that would make no sense.
@@iTzKaiBUD The main vocal mic is going through the Line 6 M9 for reverb and delay for sure. Hard to tell if the M9 is on a send and return on the mixer or just on that mic straight into a channel. I have a feeling it's the latter as that is definitely the wettest thing there, if there's any reverb on the other channels at all. Pretty sure the other mic is going straight into the Boss Loopstation and into a mixer channel. Sample loops are from a Roland SP404 and there seems to be some track coming from her phone. Obviously Roland Juno G keys too.
You're right, XY is a stereo recording technique using 2 mics and that's not what's going on here.
She's so into her own weirdness here, and it's guaranteed smiles.
This is such an accurate statement😂
.
^ this .
Not weird. She is unique and herself. That is how we all schoud be .....
What weirdness?
It's crazy she made that song in her apartment. Like its weird to see a song like this performed so unfiltered and up close. Goes to show, if you know how to use your gear and how to write a song. It's possible to create art at a level that the masses can enjoy and resonate with.
Made whilst she locked herself in her room on a speed bender, it's insane how talented she is
Self taught electronic musician, doing everything, Beautifull voice and sounds, to me that’s art 👍
Passion
Trent Reznor was the same way , he was a janitor at a studio to get access to the equipment .
She's feeling her music, beautiful.
Eddy Sarria she feelin herself bro
i checked her out a few weeks ago, thought she was too weird for me, got this song stuck in my head for like a day, checked out more of her music, now I listen to all of her music on repeat all day everyday. love her insight on certain topics and I feel like she's one of those artists who puts so much effort into their work. shes different and it's so refreshing!
no you are too weird for _her_ !
@@alquinn8576 weirds a weird word
I am in the same boat. She's amazing!
You should also check out Tash Sultana,
Allah las, and Black Angel's!!!! -
Great by the way! ;)
Yea
This so therapeutic. Don't even know what shes saying but it is so relaxing and de-stressing. Dark room, headphones heavy bass for best effect.Thank you Grimes!
"girl idk what tf she saying, but im living"
This is one of the most unique live performances I’ve ever heard
she likes to put her voice singing in reverse as an outro everytime its live
I like it, it makes sense, it is the ending of a song so you hear the ending of the lyrics first.
It seems so natural to her. I don't think she's trying to sell a cettain image- that's just her. I don't even think she's trying to push anything in people's faces- she's just using her creative energies and making something fun. Or that's what I think.
Apparently she doesn't care, she's enjoying herself, and not forcing anything on people, she just wants us to enjoy ourselves as well, just like she does in this video. Being yourself, expressing how you feel, opening your heart and soul to new things, discovering, feeling, growing, falling, and evolving from your past experiences. The message is clear: Take a deep breathe, feel your heart and move forward 🤍
That’s what she wants y’all to think .. she sold her soul 😢 and she was at epsteins island
@@rickybobbypapiwas she with Epstein?
I have no idea what the fuck she's saying, but I love it. She sounds like a water nymph. X
I read the lyrics, and I still don't know what she's saying. But I love it
Well yes, but besides that, there are chunks and portions of her songs that are sometimes unclear. Which I am totally okay with, she's relaxing and dreamy. xo
A lot of the background vocal parts are reversed. And if they're not reversed, then she has said that she forgets a lot of her lyrics. Probably because she was super drugged up trying to finish Visions. You can see her fumble around with the lyrics in old concert vids sometimes, especially with Realiti. But she's gotten a lot better at remembering and she's even redone some lyrics to songs like Nightmusic.
eevvelle* LMAO right!

How can someone be so talented, pretty, creative, pure and intelligent. God I love everything she does.
You resonate with her.
Be blessed
She's pretty af
ur ugly af
@@level8 hey, be nice
@@level8 dude I'm not for shaming but just look at your and her profile picture and think again.
@@alida1734 yo man I was too tan back then, what can I say
shes disgusting
elon musk: sing me a song

Grimes: SONG INITIATED........
💀💀
Is this for Elon?😍😍
@@alida1734 No.
ill give you some elon musk ;) ;)
Lisp lisp..."un-intelligable words, kawaii kid voice" lisp lisp.
Grimes actually writes, produces, mixes all her own songs. A true artist. Yet I see a bunch of boomers saying she sucks in comments on her videos just because she married Elon.
Grimes is a true artist who deserves so much credit for her remarkable talent.
They are NOT married.
Not married
Boomer hate is lame af
She also does the artwork for all her albums and directs/creates all her music videos.
Calling anybody older than you a “boomer” shows ignorance and is just incorrect , and just to channel the victimhood of your generation , it’s ageist
Brings me back this, I always preferred the black keys on a keyboard when I was a kid I also thought they sounded oriental.
Aha exactly, me too. x)
That's because in chinese music they use the pentatonic scale, which happens to be the black keys on a keyboard!
Thats because youre black (yea that was racist)
She dated a Chinese guy once. Canadian tho.
Me too!!
Especially in the second half, there's something almost shamanic about this performance.
Dude yes
She has great timing on that keyboard. It surprises me everytime
it's the year 2020, I'm living in a pandemic and I'm just here binging on grimes
her music makes me cry, not out of sadness but because of its beauty
My best friend forgot my birthday and I been feeling very lonely, sometimes people just seen to be my friends because I work hard to be good at school, Grimes do most of all things by herself, it's inspiring for me because I'm thinking about ending all my friendship, it's always people using me. Thank you for being here
Happy Birthday 🎂 Life gets better after you graduate school....kids can be d -bags sometimes,has nothing to do with you...keep loving you and doing things you love...life will unfold slowly like a rose ❤
2:25 ♥ fuckkk. i love that sound
reading the recent criticisms of grimes by artists i wont mention, whom dont know she even performs live and they speak on her work like they know it and cant even search youtube and watch how damn brilliant she is
Watching her perform is so mesmerizing
X Æ A-12 have a really cool mama
soo it starts numbers for names , this going be the norm in the future
@Cashew Nut ash archangel
She is a talented artist but given the way she named her kid and her reasoning behind it she is dumber than a box of rocks.
@@EcnalKcin Stop judging. Nothing is objectively dumb.
@@angadsingh9314 Seems like you might be
The way I found this song was pretty amazing, I was 15 at the time. My family and I (from Australia) went on a trip around Europe and while we were in Italy this song came on my Spotify discover weekly. Right as we were driving through the county side of Italy. It was well and truly one of the most beautiful experiences I’ve experienced. This song found me at an amazing time.
She knows what feels good, and she puts that into every song, so no matter different it seems to be or sound, there's no way you won't like it.
Putting into simple words: Her melodies are catchy as hell.
She's so gorgeous
Art Angels is fantastic, but this is still my favorite.
No is Art Angel. Is Visions
Leila Pereira What she meant is that Genesis is her favorito even tho it's not in Art Angels, beeing a great album
Favorite*
russ99a i
Leila Pereira What?
This is an artist.
…that needs autotune
I actually really loved her earlier stuff. So creative and raw.
I think I'm hopelessly obsessed with her. 💔
pure talent. I used to watch this all the time back in 2012....now that so much time has passed and shes changed so much, interesting to look back at this timid little girl sitting on a floor playing with these toys...something she has obviously done for years for nothing more than a passion for creation and expression.
This is a place to appreciate the art & sound of Grimes for the people who knew her way before her marriage. Tumblr Era Claire is forever special.
My heart will never see, will never feel, will never know
Oh heart, and then it falls, and then I fall, and then I know
Home and I know
Playing on the deck of above
It's always different
I'm the one in love
I feel honoured to be able to watch this performance, that outro especially was something special
this is genious. who is listenning in quarentine?
Listening to this high is always a pleasure !!!!! Perfection ❤
I'm late to this.. I've just discovered Grimes for myself and I can't thank her enough for her music and passion, it's inspired me to start drawing and creating again. Forever in her debt 🙏
I can tell you this much as a musician.. she isn’t no propped up over paid entertainment.. that’s an artist pure n simple.. THATS HER PERSONAL MUSIC.. created and stamped her name on it
This song is so fucking beautiful.
6:06
the shit gets serious
she is touched by God
Oblivion, yasss♥
me getting lost on myself
No artist, NONE OF THEM, are as talented as Grimes! She is the talent and brains behind every one of her lyric, music, music video, everything! So much respect for her
Her music sounds very dream pop esque
not so
rlly... nope. it's electropop
Alvin Walters So... Elon's the vampire?
@Alvin Walters lmao
there's just something about her stage presence makes me believe life is worth living again. idk. i keep coming back to this performance in particular whenever i'm feeling real depressed and lethargic about life in general, it's beautiful
Its the first time I see her live and I must say it feels magical to see this much talent in just one person.
I come back to this every chance I get! It kind of makes me forget Coronavirus exists 😇
😯 My name is also Mia H.
M H twinsies!!!
The best version of this song by far, especially the extended experimental outro, like dying and going to heaven
I’ve instantly fallen in love with her
I have not been amazed by an artist like this in a long long time. Adorable young lady. She’s off the charts. Who says theres no good music being made? There is now. Rock on. Girl 👧 power.
I find this music strangely calming
i listen to both oblivion and genesis when im having an anxiety or panick attack and it helps a lot 🪐
Anytime I listen to grimes she takes literally all my pain away from me and my worries away. Thank you grimes I love you ✨💜
I miss this Claire.
This is like my lullaby song. I found it in 2016 but never listened to this live version until a couple of years ago. Needless to say it's been saved in the playlist of my life 🙃
Same
Just hits my spot...and it feels good
She just always blows my mind
Heard this song 3 years ago for the first time... been obsessed with it since then!
It's amazing to see her create and play music. So soothing...
Omg.. you make me cry, i still happiest of the world!!!
I actually woke up in the middle of the night saw this and its been 2 hrs straight I can’t sleep and will most probably vibe to it for the entire night
Until i sleep again
I work at a Lucid Motors store and this song is on the playlist that loops several times a day.
I'm a metal head and I like a couple of her songs.
im a metalhead and like everything
What a musical genius. So creative so unique. Grimes is truly a gift to the music industry.
She was so amazing live
this is so genuine it brings tears to my eyes !!! i love her mind and art so much
I love her voice ♥
Grimes ❤.
i love this and her so much
lyrics:
My heart will neher be om bah,
auh eher oah oee horing um op
so horm hye ek a neka bas
hol em so iss difrin ay
neher be oh har nigh eki naki boa
So iss diffrin, nauh iky niky bau
I'm laughing so hard at this
8 years later
I'm listening again and again ...
Amazing. I Love that sound ❤️
I wish I could begin to wrap my mind around all of this
amazing talent and an amazing song, love it
Wow! Commend this woman on what she’s doing!! This a performance for all to witness! Thank you! 🙏
This song feels truly
Listening to this while high must be the best feeling ever.
chills.
This is art. She puts so much into her music, you can feel it
Im abt to cry at how beautiful this is omg I Iove her
she's incredible, i love her spontaneity and natural behavior
Aí sim dou valor. Ao vivo e entrega o que a música promete. E ainda consegue se concentrar em todas as programações. Para poucas e merece reconhecimento.
This track and it's live(then) video speaks volumes for Grimes!!
can't come up with words for how much i love this
i can legit watch this video 700 times and not get bored. gosh I’m in love
God damn this is beautiful
Bravo. Spectacular, emotional, passionate and outstanding artistry. Bravo.
Thank you so much!
Holy shit this is amazing and so mesmerizing
After watching this video I'm pretty sure that Grimes does alchemy with her sounds. Intentionally or not, it is magic. Especially by the end of her performance here, it felt something one of a kind. Something that comes from within. Her art feels pure.
Beautiful........and Unique! Love this song
I LOVE HER AND HER MUSIC SO MUCH!!!!!!!
Generally I don't stand recorded live performances, yet this one and Imogen Heap performing live a cappella version of Just for Now are definitely categorized as perfect in my mind.
1:12
o shit that spooked me real good
"yea"
Boo.
mollieangel Why the quote marks
love her. love this. love all of it!
She gave me goosebumps, she’s magic❣️🥰💗💖😘
Great, great performance!
