      These are the kind of videos that I would imagine for songs growing up like Tori Amos or A Perfect Circle songs then they go and make some trashy video like they did for the Outsiders. something I never would have pictured for the song. Of course I am trashing other bands videos now. This video is amazing. I've watched it a million times. Love the series of videos with the same actors and themes.

    I love the parallels between this video and Part 3 (Gloria). Both Junior and Gloria are being shown kicking the door in and rushing to the car and carrying their loved ones to save them from a head injury. Also the fact, that they both end up leaving the person they wanted to save in the car, because of the police arriving, running away to the field to save themselves. Beautiful and creative way to end the amazing story of the Sparks family tree.

  • @ChaoticallyMe
    @ChaoticallyMe 4 роки тому +575

    I love how deeply human these characters are. The Lumineers didn't just paint these 'addicts' as heartless monsters not worthy of empathy, but as flawed yet believable people like you and me.
    In Gloria, despite the addiction that is quickly consuming her whole being...we still see the love she has for baby Jimmy...the way Gloria looks at him as she holds him...the way she reaches for him when she gets home from the hospital... We also see how much love her husband has for her despite her alcoholism.
    Fast forward and Jimmy clearly loves his son...despite Jimmy's bad behaviour, he worked to support Junior, he stuck around when Bonnie left...he did his best despite addiction creeping in on him bit by bit as the years went on (starting with the gambling to pay for medical care for Junior...then the alcohol...the drugs...associating with dangerous people...)...he still managed to hold it together long enough for Junior to reach adulthood. Finally in Salt and the Sea, we see Jimmy tell his son to run as the police close in...despite his potentially fatal head wound that needs medical attention he sends Junior off (hopefully to freedom)...
    In Leader of the Landslide, Junior looks frustrated and completely over the kinds of people his father associates with...but in April and Salt and the Sea we see that Junior loves his Dad and maybe believes that if he steals the money, pays off the debts then maybe this brush with death will finally be enough to straighten Jimmy out...
    ...sadly there's no happy ending...but real life isn't a Disney movie...

    Lyrics:
    Could it be I was the one that you held so deep in the night
    On the back staircase you fell to your knees with tears in your eyes
    All that you suffered, all the disease
    You couldn't hide it, hide it from me
    All alone scared in your room, would you swear there's nobody home
    On the bed laying awake as you prayed he'd leave you alone
    I'll let the darkness swallow me whole
    I need to find you, need you to know
    I'll be your friend in the daylight again
    There we will be, like an old enemy
    Like the salt and the sea
    And they wrote all these prescriptions, they wrote me off
    Like a heel
    Yeah, the doctors with their medicine left me
    To rock in my filth
    From the destruction, out of the flame
    You need a villain, give me a name
    I'll be your friend in the daylight again
    There we will be, like an old enemy
    I'll be your friend in the daylight again
    There we will be, like an old enemy
    Like the salt and the sea
    Like the salt and the sea

The dark and the light. The good days and the bad. This song seems to me that it's about your light side talking to your darkside.

    I think it's amazing how history made us think that the generational suffering of this family was related to the piano (which actually represented Glória), and when Junior burns him, we think that he is changing the family's direction, which is not the case . Because generational suffering begins in Donna (Mother of Glória), and the representation of this was never the piano, but the house, which was built by Donna (Construction focused on video 1). Realize that the house is always involved with family problems, all generations have never abandoned it. If one of them broke the cycle, semiotics would be related to leaving home, which does not happen. In the end, Junior only burns the piano, but returns home, ending up as Glória.

    There's a cinematic parallel drawn between this video and the one released for the song ' Gloria ' wherein Gloria's husband rushes out to take her to the hospital and leaves Jimmy behind simply because he isn't his child. We observe Jimmy being abandoned by various important people in his life ,his parents being the first one and then his wife bonnie , here he is again shown alone.
    Jimmy sits in the car alone like the abandoned child he once was.
    Even though the whole family's story is upsetting but the person my heart aches the most for is - Jimmy .

  • @No-qf1vg

    The Sparks are the cycle of addiction through a family. We are all doomed to relive the mistakes and faults of our ancestors, whether we like it or not. But they also show the constant impact of family relationships. No matter how much Junior hated Jimmy for putting him through everything, he still stole all the money to protect them and then tried to take his father with him to run away. Eventually, though, he did exactly what Jimmy had done in the past - just trying to help his family but making terrible mistakes in the process. And finally ends up becoming Gloria, pulling Jimmy out the door and eventually sprinting through the field to get away from his mistakes.

    My late Wife said in early 2020 that this song has the Zeitgeist of 2020 for her. Prophetic words since in hindsight it 100% summed up her journey with cancer and it taking her from us later that year. The part thar hits me the most as 100% what happened in her last days.. litterally : “And they wrote all these prescriptions, they wrote me off

    Yeah, the doctors with their medicine left me
    To rock in my filth”

    I first heard this, completely unprepared & not knowing how it would haunt me, in traffic, half - distracted in the beginning, but suddenly riveted & mesmerized by the way it intimately grabbed ahold of me. Most songs that get us emotional are about love, or it's loss, occasionally family & the memories that take residence in the halls of our head. Few songs ever affect us in a way that is wholly ourself. I was once again driving alone when I heard it for a second time & my face flooded with tears, unrelenting to the point of near-blindness. I cannot recall ever crying so forcefully while listening to music. This entire song is all that I feel from the inside out, I have literally lived this song word by painful word .

    it took damn near a year but I finally noticed that the Sparks' toxic cycle of alcoholism, self destruction and strained family ties is further emphasized by the fact that basically some songs on III could be interpreted as virtually any family member talking to/ about another. Leader of the landslide could be Gloria talking about Donna, Jimmy talking about Gloria or Junior talking about Jimmy. There's other examples that im not quite sure of since they could just as easily be from an omniscient POV
