      I listened to that heel scrape like twelve times. The sharp, gliding sound coming to an abrupt stop creates a sense of precision in-and-of-itself, but it also brings to mind figure-skating and the mastery of an art form through the mastery of the body. Didn't mean for that to sound so pretentious, but I think you probably know what I mean.

    I feel so bad for her pain in this song, to want that validation and love and support from just one person, and despite what you do or who you become you just never get it and she never got it from him.

    I always cry when I listen to this song. The part "didn't I do it for you" describes the relationship of me and my mother perfect. My whole life I always tried to be the perfect daughter for her but it was never enough. I never got any love or attention from her. I still would do anything to hear a simple "I'm proud of you" or " I love you" from her even tho i know she will never say it. Watching all the other girls with their mothers will always break my heart.

      perhaps you could try going to therapy and stop trying to fulfill your mother´s expectations. Or talk to your mother or write a letter to her telling her how you feel. Sometimes people is not aware of other people´s feelings. And everybody has a background and a reason to be like we are. Blessings.

Twigs was attacked by Kristen Stewart fans, not Rob's fans. His ex has crazy fans who attack any woman he gets near, even his co-stars who he's never dated. There is no beef between Rob and Twigs. Rob says, "I''m on good terms with all my exes," and Twigs did a podcast with Julia Fox this year, 2023, where she said Rob is a sweet person and also Cellophane isn't about him. She said fans jump to a lot of wrong conclusions.

      ​@a.madison9625 Cellophane is absolutely about her separation from Rob. It was made right after. The confusion is that the pain comes from Rob. It came from having a public relationship as a celebrity. Hence, the title of the song: "Cellophane." Their relationship is "all wrapped up in cellophane..." A thin, see-through plastic. People can analyze it and scrutinize because a lot of it is public.

Twigs was attacked by Kristen Stewart fans, not Rob's fans. His ex has crazy fans who attack any woman he gets near, even his co-stars who he's never dated. There is no beef between Rob and Twigs.

    a lot of people are picking sides on the whole montero “copying” thing but I think it’s really interesting to examine how they use the same imagery (teasing heaven then falling to hell) and similar visuals to portray such different meanings. like this video (along with the song ofc) is sad and intimate. it feels almost voyeuristic to watch, and relies on the audiences understanding of the traditional concepts of heaven and hell to symbolize and portray emotions. montero is about reclaiming the concept of hell, playing with that which is used to punish and control people. it leans into campy and is much more fun and light. I think they’re both really interesting, and their similarities actually help to juxtapose their deeper meanings

      I think it's funny for either of them to pretend like the idea of falling from heaven to hell is anything unique or groundbreaking. Even in this video, the falling effect w/fabric swirling around is often seen in Chinese imagery/movies. I swear I even saw similarities in Jennifer Lopez's movie "The Cell" lol.

    In my opinion, the video is about FKA twigs being in a relationship and her significant other not being able to see that others were trying to tear them apart. Then at the end of the song, if you notice she is so weak from the battle that she can barely utter these very telling words... “They’re waiting, they’re watching us, they’re hating, they’re hoping I’m not enough”.
    The point is, he allowed outsiders to attack and destroy a relationship between him and an angel. He fed her to the wolves (the haters), allowing them to sully and literally throw dirt on her. I saw this as her expressing her disappointment in her lover allowing her to fight and struggle for their love all on her own.
    Very sad and too familiar. I feel you Twigs.

      @@Luna-ch9us you are right. Twigs suffered on a whole other level from the 3 yrs with Pattinson compared to the 9 months with Shia. Twihards are a whole other species.
      People didn't just spam her with insults about race and her appearance (apparently some people find goddesses "odd" looking?!) But people who didn't hate basically said her existence mattered - because of Robert Pattinson.

    Been listening to this since it was a single and just realized today the cellophane part is about being a toy or collectible, forever packaged up and never seen by anyone else or seen except at home and on the shelf. And the nervousness of getting used to that dynamic, but wanting more. Growing out of that but still being reluctant to change. And the partner is the one who’s gatekeeping it all.

    I feel like the last sentence "I'm not enough" was the whole key of the album, like it was the answer to all her problems bc she spent so much time and energy to look for what was wrong with him and then with herself but there was a point where she started to act just like him (sad day) and here she finally went deeper and deeper, finding out which was the cause of all this pain, just the feeling of not being enough that was pushing her to always look for love in him, instead of herself (just my opinion)...this song just touches me in some many ways, I feel every word on my skind, it just so powerful... I'm so proud of FKA, she has alsaws been a warrior and she was so strong to be able to close this door, such an inspiration!
