    I am preparing for a medical exam that determines the rest of my life and career, and this song popped into my head out of the blues. I am deeply terrified of the outcome and what it means for my life but just like she says, I must pass this test. My heart is beating but I am not leaving. Thank you riri.

      Because it was too dark for the charts. Usually an artists most personal cult favourite album underperforms. It still went platinum so didn’t really flop, just didn’t do well as her previous project, but then again that was huge so it’s hard to replicate something again like that.

  • @WColtB
    @WColtB 9 років тому +267

    Guys!!! It's not about suicide!! I think this song is about falling in love, but it is speaking about it from a totally helpless point of view. A lot of songs are about love being bliss but in reality it can be paralyzing. The metaphor of russian roulette and shooting yourself, is plunging in to a relationship. The moment where you 'pull the trigger' is the moment where you commit to someone enough, that they are now in a position to break your heart. The line of 'hes here means he has never lost' means because he single/available means he has never played the game and not lost his heart anyone completely.
    I guess, as normal in a Rihanna song, the act of sleeping with the guy is the act of pulling the trigger and falling for him. 'close your eyes, sometimes it helps' is kissing etc
    The middle 8 is a bit intense, but can sadly also be true. ''Too late to pick up the value of my life'' is that feeling where you are no longer completely self dependent. That horrible feeling were you can't imagine having not met someone and that you are not complete without them. Sappy movies such as Jerry Maguire have made sentiment of this, but it is actually painful to be that in love with some one.
    Very interesting song because it barely strays from the metaphor and could almost be a literal meaning.

      @User333777999 9 років тому +8

      I think you don't get the exact point of this song. This is about loving someone so deeply that even after they do something unforgivable to you, there is still so much feeling left that you cant accept how this person does such a thing to you, but this is literally the suicide because if you continue to love them, you will feel miserable and lose your self esteem. So, one of you is going to die, either you will relinquish yourself, or kill his image that resides inside you. This is the essence of russian roulette. rihanna chooses herself and states in her song:
      "Damn I'm glad I picked ya
      Couldn't be with no one else
      You're the only way
      I'll win"

      I was very surprised that the actor who played Marcus in "Detroit" (Jesse Williams) starred in Rihanna's "Russian Roulette" music video. I just can't help but enjoy this song and I can't help but envision Jesse and Rihanna in this music video. I'm just over the moon. Even though the song is 14 years old now, it still sounds very soulful. 😭😭💔💔
      P.s. Whoever says that Rihanna can't sing and she is zero in vocals, let them watch this video and maybe then they will understand.

    Take a breath, take it deep
    Calm yourself, he says to me
    If you play, you play for keeps
    Take the gun, and count to three
    I'm sweating now, I'm moving slow
    No time to think, my turn to go
    And you can see my heart, beating
    You can see it through my chest
    Said I'm terrified but I'm not leaving
    I know that I must pass this test
    So just pull the trigger (trigger, trigger, trigger...)
    Say a prayer, to yourself
    He says, close your eyes, sometimes it helps
    And then I get, a scary thought
    That he's here, means he's never lost
    And you can see my heart, beating
    Now you can see it through my chest
    Said I'm terrified but I'm not leaving
    I know that I must pass this test
    So just pull the trigger
    As my life flashes before my eyes
    I'm wondering will I, ever see another sunrise?
    So many won't get the chance to say goodbye
    But it's too late to think of the value of my life
    And you can see my heart, beating
    Now you can see it through my chest
    Said I'm terrified but I'm not leaving, no!
    I know that I must pass this test
    And you can see my heart, beating
    Oh, you can see it through my chest
    That I'm terrified but I'm not leaving, no!
    I know that I must pass this test
    So just pull the trigger (trigger, trigger, trigger...)

    This song deserves more than it got. It’s perfect for anyone dreading the next moment, day or week, because they’re hiding, because there’s no way to be happy or because there is only death to look forward to. The composition, the lyrics, the interlude, it’s all expertly crafted and delivered. Rihanna is a master of artistic execution. She is a talent like no other.

      It's about the super soldier programs: "Said I'm terrified but I'm not leaving
      I know that I must pass this test"
      Breath the poison gas and survive, you've past the test. Dive in the water and not get killed buy the gunfire, you've past the test. There's a car running full speed at you, through up a telekinetic shield and you've past the test. "As my life flashes before my eyes
      . I'm wondering will I, ever see another sunrise?" Consider the shear number of missing children, many of them end up being used in these programs. "So many won't get the chance to say goodbye
      But it's too late to think of the value of my life" Because eight out of ten don't live to see adulthood. @@blood66693

    And you can see my heart beating
    You can see it through my chest
    Said I’m terrified but I’m not leaving
    I know that I must pass this test
    So just pull the trigger (trigger, trigger, trigger,...)
    [Verse 2]
    Say a prayer to yourself
    He says, "Close your eyes"
    Sometimes it helps
    And then I get a scary thought
    That he’s here, means he’s never lost
