This _perfectly_ encapsulates the dreamy, kitschy, butterflies in your stomach, feeling of falling in love. Just raw emotion, rose tinted glasses. Lyrics beautiful aswell. Love this Grimes Era.
This song is about falling in love and appreciating the experience, despite knowing that eventually you will part ways. Its one of the most beautiful and tragic love songs ever written.
hard to choose a favorite among so many great tracks, but "Idoru" is one of the best, most powerful songs ever written about self-preservation, dignity. Its universal message crosses all boundaries and instills one with the hope that it's not too late to better ourselves. Since it's impossible in this world we live in to empathize with others, we can always empathize with ourselves. It's an important message, crucial really. And it's beautifully stated on the album.
I just fell in love and had an amazing relationship with a beautiful, wise and enchanting woman which only lasted 60 days. And the entire time, the lyrics to this Grimes song played in my head. Although I never mentioned to she who I fell in love with. It helped me to live in the moment.
This song makes me feel so many emotions, it's so comforting, it's so sad, it's so beautiful.. It's like loving someone, and the beautiful game of love that's still worth playing even though you're gonna lose because you'll always lose each other one way or another with time. No I'm not crying, it's just raining on my face.
You will learn to never lose if you give your life to Jesus Christ. His word is truth. Sorcery and witchcraft is a seductive weapon, it never brings freedom from pain ,loss. Yet, at the cross of Jesus Christ, the price that was paid to die for you and for me has power over these false , counterfeit spirits. Life or death . You can choose Life. Where the spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ is there is freedom.
Watch it without the music video and it loses a lot of value... Its too un-refined, too unfocused. The instrumental could've been a lot more effective if it wasn't like 5000000% louder than her voice is. For an emotional hipster this is like 10/10.. For a normal logical human this like 5/10 at best.
Buttered Potato A lot of her songs are like that, especially her older ones. I think it’s what makes it unique, how her voice and the music just kinda blends together:)
Fun fact: Claire's (Grimes' real name) original idea for the title of this track is 'Adore You' (as with the chorus). But she wanted a cooler one and kept thinking for one. Then a friend told her it sounded like 'Idoru': the book by Wiliam Gibson about this A.I. girl or something. Claire, of course, thought it cool. But what's really cool was the book was dedicated to a woman named Claire too! It was the author's wife. So Claire felt like it was a sign from a simulation as she said in an interview and used it as the final title!
"Choose," I say, as my fingers tremble, "this is who I am." And you, fingers trembling too, understand. this is MORE than poetry, it's literature mawma
@@youmustnttearorcreaseit7320 True love is when you choose to be with a person. That you realize that no one you pick as a soulmate will be completely free of flaws. Everyone has their quirks, bad habits, good and bad sides and a unique personality. You understand that, after a while, you have to settle with someone, and they'll end up being perfectly imperfect. You accept them as they are in their pure form. That's my interpretation at least.
This song feels like falling in love. It encapsulates the feelings of fear, loneliness, and complete adoration and comfort that comes with falling in love. Undoubtedly one of her best songs.
Grimes pregnant making a love song with this visuals makes me feel like I’m living in the right time. Beautiful, powerful and meaningful with just her dancing in an empty background.
Al Galav I feel sad for her. She is giving up her power and freedom. It’s the end of an era. Making music will never be her sole focus ever again. She will be doing boring mom stuff.

I think the chorus “look, this is who I am; and you understand” perfectly described true love. Grimes is a very strange, unique person, I bet most people have a hard handling that; she doesn’t necessarily like how exclusionary her personality is, but she can’t help it. She knows who she is and she embraces that fact. The person she is singing to, also being uniquely actualized like her, understands that this intense individuality makes it really hard to maintain a steady relationship, and knows that this thing probably won’t last long term. But you love in spite of that, because thats what love is
"I wanna play a beautiful game, even though we are going to lose" extends this. She admits that they probably won't stay together forever, but she wants to be in the moment and embrace what their love is right now and she's willing to do that even though she doesn't think it will last. They might lose this game of love, but it's beautiful, so they will play anyway.
@@brookequaid1935 it is beautiful. And heartbreaking and wise. It's also very brave, to allow ourselves to love knowing it will end with terrible pain because nothing in our world lasts forever. Grimes blows my f-ing mind sometimes.
She's obviously smart, and beautiful. It's like, her own parents didn't want to support the authentic her. It must be difficult, having 2 parents that have leadership type jobs, and they play these roles out in society that are very serious as well. They must've been super strict, cuz Grimes would run away from home. Then she amassed a public following, bigger than her mother's (in government), got with Elon. Her parents minds were probably blown, cuz they thought they had lost their "troublesome" daughter,and that she would have been a loser vagabond for not following their every direction, lol! I love you Grimes, keep proving to your parents, and your peers that you're dreams are relevant and that you are powerful in your own right.
This is really cool art. As Björk did with „it‘s in our hands“ while being pregnant. Thank you for sharing your vulnerability. All the best for your new chapter.
Playing this at my wedding, the part where she says “even tho we’re gonna lose” reminds of how you promise to be together until death parts you, you’ll die in the end but it’s still worth spending your life together. I watched my father pass away and me, my mom and my fiancé were by his side and he was in a room absolutely full of love - that’s marriage 💖
I'm in the same boat. I'm getting married soon and this song is on my list. I lost my mother. I love this song for the eternal dedication it promises. Even if your voice shakes, even if your hands tremble, I want this commitment
She’s extremely talented and iconic. Why the hell isn’t she super-famous (long before getting a lot of curiosity clicks because of her relationship). It’s so rare these days to find artists that write their lyrics, mix their own beats, style themselves, direct their own videos, are responsible for their own creative development and personal “brand“ all in a badass edgy artistic way... most of the artists we actually get exposed to today aren’t even “artists” they are talented (maybe) at one or two of those aspects and the rest gets manufactured for them. She’s a captivating person- I can’t wait to see the next look, hear the next song, watch the next video etc 👏🏻
Probably because she was producing her own music and usually in the entertainment industry it's about connection not about how good your music is. There are a plenty of smaller artists that has better music than what is mainstream but it just depends on the production company and marketing firm. Grime just starts becoming mainstream because of her famous boyfriend.
Grimes isn't really mainstream so doesn't fit in the regular radio stations, those other artists are signed by literal billion dollar agencies that spend hundred of millions on advertising and buying their own artist's tracks to insure they reach the top ten on all the billboard charts. Its a game of its own.
@@ericprochnow anyone being constantly invited to Met Gala, and on Vogue and has Adidas endorsement is pretty mainstream. Also she is signed with Columbia Records a very mainstream company. And she is a judge on a reality TV show now as well.
There is Lady Gaga, but ofcourse. she is on a different league. (Grimes was in Lady Gaga's latest album Chromatica Remixes but Grimes and Bloodpop had some last minute problems)
@@CrimsonEclipse they mean her music isn’t mainstream sounding, which it isn’t. If it were, it wouldn’t be like this at all and therefore the beauty that Grimes as a musical act is wouldn’t exist. Music like this isn’t designed to be mainstream, it’s not easy background listening music to the masses and it shouldn’t be. It’s beautiful art imo
Idoru is one of William Gibson's greatest books. If you don't know who William Gibson is he coined the term "Cyberspace" and was/is a true visionary. His earlier books arguably invented Cyberpunk. He also envisioned an immersive virtual world long before VR/Oculus Rift. Look up his earlier books like Neuromancer and Mona Lisa Overdrive, his books are masterpieces of science fiction. Also, Beautiful song Grimes :)
this song feels personal to me, i can't really explain it but this definitely is my most favorite song from her. thank you for your realness, as always grimes.
Grimes out here continuing her work even while pregnant. I appreciate that. Her body and mind is going through so much rn. People having babies amaze me. Hold that sword hunney! You powerful!!!!
Sometimes women thrive when pregnant more so than before they were. It gives them purpose and focus. You really have to turn into a super woman and pregnancy is the preparation for that. For her particular journey from my understanding she was more into partying and it probably grounded her getting pregnant, now it seems she has been doing more work than ever because she is doing what us all mother's do when in preparation for a child to come. It basically is nesting. She is probably wanting to make as much music as possible because she feels inspired and mentally, physically, and financially you just want to prepare for what is to come.
"I wanna play a beautiful game, even though we're gonna loose" - Grimes 2019 "I'm in love with thе greatest gamer, but he'll always love the game" - Grimes 2021 both incredible
I broke up with my partner 6 or so months ago, I’m still mourning our relationship and think about him and our dog everyday. While we were together I used to listen to this song on repeat every morning dropping him to work or picking him up from work - knowing that it was always going to end and this really resonated with me.. We played a beautiful game and we lost.. I still adore him. Miss him every day, I hate / love that I always come back to this song, it’s too special to let go of.. ❤
This beautiful song was echoing throughout my dreams last night. I was in a less desirable situation, but Idoru turned the pain into something beautiful. I absolutely adore Grimes & her art
Lyrics You are the only one Babe, I was so numb And even though I'm breaking, at least I feel something (Just like release) [Pre-Chorus] Look, I say As my fingers tremble This is what I am And, and, and you Fingers tremblin' too Understand [Chorus] Yeah, we could play a beautiful game We could play a beautiful game You could chase me down in the name Of love I wanna play a beautiful game Even though we're gonna lose But I adore you Adore you [Verse 2] You are the only one Babe, I was so dumb, ooh, ooh And even though I'm breaking, at least I feel something (How can you be so mean?) [Pre-Chorus] Choose, I say As my fingers tremble This is who I am And, and, and you Fingers tremblin' too Understand [Chorus] Yeah, we could play a beautiful game We could play a beautiful game You could chase me down in the name Of love I wanna play a beautiful game Even though we're gonna lose But I adore you Adore you [Bridge] Unrequited love has reassembled me I think it's crazy And if you said I do I'd reassemble you, baby And you're so cool 'Cause you don't think you're cool You can abuse it Because you made my all-time favorite music [Interlude] We could play a beautiful game We could play a beautiful game You could chase me down in the name Of love I wanna play a beautiful game Even though we're gonna lose But I adore you I adore you So, I ignore you [Chorus] We could play a beautiful game We could play a beautiful game You could chase me down in the name Of love But there you are, getting away Think we finally lose But I adore you I adore you I adore you, oh I adore you I adore you I adore you [Outro] You, you You, you You, you You, you, you
@@MegaENCHANCER I dunno though, what about the "cus you made my all-time favourite music" line? Ik he's playing around w music now but at the time of writing I think the only song he'd made or at least released publicly was that rip harambe jam lol. Someone said on reddit that they theorized it was a kind of love letter from c to Grimes which i think is a really sweet idea
@@ooblebip I watched an interview of Grimes the other time and she said Miss Anthropocene was her all time fav album she made. I assumed that it's because Elon inspired most of the music in Miss Anthropocene.
@@bleepbloop644 Makes electric cars, is a rocket scientist that makes rockets and satellites, but yeah, a mentally challenged singer is a genius. Give me a break.
Honestly her music in general is like that, and I love it. It’s like that one weird snack you try on a dare and you hate it at first but then you try a little more to make sure you hate it but then you hate it slightly less and it continues until you’re in love with said weird snack.
It's actually meodyne where she takes the high vocal and pulls it down to a different note that's why it has a slightly unusual but cool sound, you can play with the vocal like clay, but you have to be intuitive to the music as she is - amazing job is my fave part the way it appears
I love this song. Also, Grimes just single handedly exposed her audience to one of the greatest anime ever, Revolutionary Girl Utena! Watch it people, Grimes likes it, so will you
I have one. It was my Dads and it was given to me when I was 14 a few years after he passed away. I guard it with my life and everywhere I have lived, its been by my side. Even in my college dorm! 🤣
I must confess that at my boyf's birthday party we had rented a domo house in the middle of the forest, we took some magic mushroom and this song made me cry for happiness
Lyrics You are the only one Babe, I was so numb And even though I'm breaking, at least I feel something (Just like release) Look, I say As my fingers tremble This is what I am And, and, and you Fingers tremblin' too Understand Yeah, we could play a beautiful game We could play a beautiful game You could chase me down in the name Of love I wanna play a beautiful game Even though we're gonna lose But I adore you Adore you You are the only one Babe, I was so dumb, ooh, ooh And even though I'm breaking, at least I feel something (How can you be so mean?)

The other half of an Idoru duet: I was the only one, babe you were so numb And even though you're breaking at least you feel something. ...How can I be so mean? Look, you say, as your fingers tremble "This is what I am" And I, fingers trembling too, understand You said we could play a beautiful game I could chase you down in the name of love We could play a beautiful game Even though you know we're gonna lose You adore me Adore me Choose, you say, as your fingers tremble "This is who I am" And I, fingers trembling too, understand Unrequited love has reassembled you I think it's crazy And If I say "I do", you'd reassemble me, baby You think I'm so cool but I don't think I'm cool I shouldn't be sad Because I made your all time favorite music Here I go, getting away I think we finally lose But you adore me Adore me Adore Adore You adore me
@@MoarteaLunii you have nothing else to do except hating her (fan behavior obviously), but like really ,don’t you have anything else to do of your life cause that’s pathetic
its not called "joking" when you're making fun of someone else's physical appearance, and it's not the only comment where you're dissing her so instead of telling me what to do take responsability for your own actions
I would love to see a collaboration of Grimes and Bjork. I envision a song so meta that it would make even philosophers scratch their heads trying to figure it out, but it would killer as hell to listen to.
I'm so in love with her art. She is so pretty🥺💜 baby x is lucky to have such an amazing artist as a mom. I think she's one of the best artists this last decade. Her music blows me away. 😭🖤
i love the script. it has a really cool aesthetic and i noticed some interesting details about it. It's mostly a 1-to-1 code of english but: 1. it omits c's and q's 2. it has a single symbol for AY, CH, LL, NG, TH, and YE 3. it has a unique symbol for U in "numb" and for I in "I'm" 4. it uses N+G in the word breaking, but NG everywhere else. my guess is that this was an error. great video and Nier is one of my fave games
The omission of the C/Q sound may have been a mistake in the transcription, it's certainly not a "silent" letter... these letters maybe have been intended to be replaced by the "K" character, but if the transcription was made by some automated script that missed the C/Q equivalence, it may have come out blank... The "NG" and "TH" sounds are also represented by one single character in the Runic alphabet and possibly other Scandinavian or Germanic alphabets... Nice to see she spelled "favourite" the Canadian/English way (instead of the American "favorite"). True to her Canadian heritage (unconsciously, probably...)
Listened to the opening chords, thought they were annoying, immediately guessed this would end up being my favorite song on the album. I was right. Listened too many times already ^_^
that happens to me a lot with my favorite music for some reason then anywhere from one minute to one year later I'm like how tf did I ever feel anything besides like pure adoration and love for this especially with c and Hana's stuff.
Im probably looking waaaaay too into it but it is kind of a reflection of how love is, annoying and strange to people on the outside or unfamiliar with it but underneath is a beautiful song to those who open up to it
My 5 y.o. while watching this video: - Is she like that in real? - Is this what she thinks of? - Is she still alive? - Are her parents dead? - Why isn't she cold?
As someone who looks after two girls of the same age, the 'is she still alive' and 'are her parents alive?' questions rly cracked me up bc mines ask the same type of shit. (Next one would be 'do you know her? And does she know you?' 😂)
@@oh_sparkling haha whenever I hear kids ask questions like this I think they're trying to place how old the video is... Like, "is she still alive?" (as in, was this a video from 1940, so she's probably be gone by now?) "Ok if she's still alive are her parents still alive?" (maybe it's from the 1980's, so maybe she's still alive but her parents have passed by now)?
I have ptsd, pregnancy being a big trigger for me. This is the only piece of related media I can consume that makes me feel joyful, in a sad way. She is so ethereal in a classic beauty meets alternative queer kind of way, all while visibly pregnant, it's so powerful. My brain momentarily overrides the trauma and I cry complicated tears of joy almost every time. I adore it
i don’t know you but this comment made me cry. i hope you’re doing well, and i agree how indescribably beautiful and powerful this video and the whole song is.
I also hope you’re both doing well! Goodness that’s so beautiful to hear/read…it makes the song that much more lovely to me too…I have ptsd but not in the same way-I’m just trying to say I’m proud of you guys and I’m listening to and along with you! What a magical thing!
I was listening to this a lot before I got pregnant in the beginning of quarantine. Then I found out I was expecting. listened to it throughout my pregnancy. Now playing it for my baby girl. so magical.
This _perfectly_ encapsulates the dreamy, kitschy, butterflies in your stomach, feeling of falling in love. Just raw emotion, rose tinted glasses. Lyrics beautiful aswell. Love this Grimes Era.
do u know who the lyrics are about ?
@@azwell45 Bill Gates (she's cheating)
@@DiaJasin LMFAOOOOO
Her current era is.... Ehm
it is an audio heart breaker if you ever fell in love with someone; be careful its not fun !!!
This song is about falling in love and appreciating the experience, despite knowing that eventually you will part ways. Its one of the most beautiful and tragic love songs ever written.
Serious
Yes❤🇧🇷
hard to choose a favorite among so many great tracks, but "Idoru" is one of the best, most powerful songs ever written about self-preservation, dignity. Its universal message crosses all boundaries and instills one with the hope that it's not too late to better ourselves. Since it's impossible in this world we live in to empathize with others, we can always empathize with ourselves. It's an important message, crucial really. And it's beautifully stated on the album.
I just fell in love and had an amazing relationship with a beautiful, wise and enchanting woman which only lasted 60 days. And the entire time, the lyrics to this Grimes song played in my head. Although I never mentioned to she who I fell in love with. It helped me to live in the moment.
My 60 year old dad loves this song so much. I played it once on a car ride and since then he keeps listening to it over and over again. ❤
How lovely! ☺️
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
am I supposed to laugh?
fleur no?
@@ian2079 ok, but I did. it wasn't an actual question.
This song makes me feel so many emotions, it's so comforting, it's so sad, it's so beautiful.. It's like loving someone, and the beautiful game of love that's still worth playing even though you're gonna lose because you'll always lose each other one way or another with time. No I'm not crying, it's just raining on my face.
damn same
I feel the same way. It breaks my heart when she says “there you are, getting away. Think we finally loose” 😭
You will learn to never lose if you give your life to Jesus Christ. His word is truth. Sorcery and witchcraft is a seductive weapon, it never brings freedom from pain ,loss. Yet, at the cross of Jesus Christ, the price that was paid to die for you and for me has power over these false , counterfeit spirits. Life or death . You can choose Life. Where the spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ is there is freedom.
About to start crying too ahh. In a good way tho
Yes, man, just yes
This is one of the most gorgeous songs I've heard in a long time.

extremely delicate and light in a way that seems too perfect for this world. the definition for ethereal fits perfectly as a description.
Watch it without the music video and it loses a lot of value...
Its too un-refined, too unfocused.
The instrumental could've been a lot more effective if it wasn't like 5000000% louder than her voice is.
For an emotional hipster this is like 10/10..
For a normal logical human this like 5/10 at best.
Buttered Potato A lot of her songs are like that, especially her older ones. I think it’s what makes it unique, how her voice and the music just kinda blends together:)

Fun fact: Claire's (Grimes' real name) original idea for the title of this track is 'Adore You' (as with the chorus). But she wanted a cooler one and kept thinking for one. Then a friend told her it sounded like 'Idoru': the book by Wiliam Gibson about this A.I. girl or something. Claire, of course, thought it cool. But what's really cool was the book was dedicated to a woman named Claire too! It was the author's wife. So Claire felt like it was a sign from a simulation as she said in an interview and used it as the final title!
Is this real
@@mustafaerdem140 yep it is!
plz tell me what interview?
Grimes is art.
That’s like fate
In my opinion, this is one of Grimes most divine songs. Makes me feel like I'm floating on a cloud.

My favorite line, so beautiful
This is so incredibly profound, it's like the true meaning of love
can anyone explain this line to me? English is not my first language
@@youmustnttearorcreaseit7320 True love is when you choose to be with a person. That you realize that no one you pick as a soulmate will be completely free of flaws. Everyone has their quirks, bad habits, good and bad sides and a unique personality. You understand that, after a while, you have to settle with someone, and they'll end up being perfectly imperfect. You accept them as they are in their pure form. That's my interpretation at least.

"unrequited love has reassembled me" the best line everrrrr😭
This song feels like falling in love. It encapsulates the feelings of fear, loneliness, and complete adoration and comfort that comes with falling in love. Undoubtedly one of her best songs.
Dude i cry every time i hear this song, when she gets to the "your cool" part that beat hits me.

Grimes pregnant making a love song with this visuals makes me feel like I’m living in the right time. Beautiful, powerful and meaningful with just her dancing in an empty background.
Al Galav I feel sad for her. She is giving up her power and freedom. It’s the end of an era. Making music will never be her sole focus ever again. She will be doing boring mom stuff.

Accurate since the song that precedes it is before the fever lol
I like this version slightly more.
And I love how the vocal lowers at 4:22 and how it works with the effects.....it feels ecstatic and heartfelt.
Same!
I thought the same! That point rose my attention definitely
That part peaks emotion, it’s too much

@@a.a7160 totally. Makes me cry.
This whole song is beautiful but there is something extra magical about 4:18. I love how haunting her voice sounds when she's singing lower.
So good
I agree, i freaking love it
Agree! Goosebumps all over.. its perfect!
It's my absolutely favorite!
More natural?
I think the chorus “look, this is who I am; and you understand” perfectly described true love. Grimes is a very strange, unique person, I bet most people have a hard handling that; she doesn’t necessarily like how exclusionary her personality is, but she can’t help it. She knows who she is and she embraces that fact. The person she is singing to, also being uniquely actualized like her, understands that this intense individuality makes it really hard to maintain a steady relationship, and knows that this thing probably won’t last long term. But you love in spite of that, because thats what love is
Well said
"I wanna play a beautiful game, even though we are going to lose" extends this. She admits that they probably won't stay together forever, but she wants to be in the moment and embrace what their love is right now and she's willing to do that even though she doesn't think it will last. They might lose this game of love, but it's beautiful, so they will play anyway.
@@brookequaid1935 it is beautiful. And heartbreaking and wise. It's also very brave, to allow ourselves to love knowing it will end with terrible pain because nothing in our world lasts forever. Grimes blows my f-ing mind sometimes.
@@kenjohnson8785 well said!
She's obviously smart, and beautiful. It's like, her own parents didn't want to support the authentic her. It must be difficult, having 2 parents that have leadership type jobs, and they play these roles out in society that are very serious as well. They must've been super strict, cuz Grimes would run away from home. Then she amassed a public following, bigger than her mother's (in government), got with Elon. Her parents minds were probably blown, cuz they thought they had lost their "troublesome" daughter,and that she would have been a loser vagabond for not following their every direction, lol! I love you Grimes, keep proving to your parents, and your peers that you're dreams are relevant and that you are powerful in your own right.
This is really cool art. As Björk did with „it‘s in our hands“ while being pregnant. Thank you for sharing your vulnerability. All the best for your new chapter.

Playing this at my wedding, the part where she says “even tho we’re gonna lose” reminds of how you promise to be together until death parts you, you’ll die in the end but it’s still worth spending your life together. I watched my father pass away and me, my mom and my fiancé were by his side and he was in a room absolutely full of love - that’s marriage 💖
I'm in the same boat. I'm getting married soon and this song is on my list. I lost my mother. I love this song for the eternal dedication it promises. Even if your voice shakes, even if your hands tremble, I want this commitment

I'm not lying when I say that I think this is perhaps the most beautiful song I've ever heard.
She’s extremely talented and iconic. Why the hell isn’t she super-famous (long before getting a lot of curiosity clicks because of her relationship). It’s so rare these days to find artists that write their lyrics, mix their own beats, style themselves, direct their own videos, are responsible for their own creative development and personal “brand“ all in a badass edgy artistic way... most of the artists we actually get exposed to today aren’t even “artists” they are talented (maybe) at one or two of those aspects and the rest gets manufactured for them. She’s a captivating person- I can’t wait to see the next look, hear the next song, watch the next video etc 👏🏻
Probably because she was producing her own music and usually in the entertainment industry it's about connection not about how good your music is. There are a plenty of smaller artists that has better music than what is mainstream but it just depends on the production company and marketing firm. Grime just starts becoming mainstream because of her famous boyfriend.
Grimes isn't really mainstream so doesn't fit in the regular radio stations, those other artists are signed by literal billion dollar agencies that spend hundred of millions on advertising and buying their own artist's tracks to insure they reach the top ten on all the billboard charts. Its a game of its own.
@@ericprochnow anyone being constantly invited to Met Gala, and on Vogue and has Adidas endorsement is pretty mainstream. Also she is signed with Columbia Records a very mainstream company. And she is a judge on a reality TV show now as well.
There is Lady Gaga, but ofcourse. she is on a different league. (Grimes was in Lady Gaga's latest album Chromatica Remixes but Grimes and Bloodpop had some last minute problems)
@@CrimsonEclipse they mean her music isn’t mainstream sounding, which it isn’t. If it were, it wouldn’t be like this at all and therefore the beauty that Grimes as a musical act is wouldn’t exist. Music like this isn’t designed to be mainstream, it’s not easy background listening music to the masses and it shouldn’t be. It’s beautiful art imo

Idoru is one of William Gibson's greatest books. If you don't know who William Gibson is he coined the term "Cyberspace" and was/is a true visionary. His earlier books arguably invented Cyberpunk. He also envisioned an immersive virtual world long before VR/Oculus Rift. Look up his earlier books like Neuromancer and Mona Lisa Overdrive, his books are masterpieces of science fiction. Also, Beautiful song Grimes :)
this song feels personal to me, i can't really explain it but this definitely is my most favorite song from her. thank you for your realness, as always grimes.
The Utena clips had me freaking out the whole time. Even the kiss scene was included!! I'm. just. dead 💓💓💓
Mashimero : same here. But I am not really surprised - somehow I knew that Grimes knows Utena. :)
"and you... Fingers trembling too... Understand" omg these lyrics are beyond moving
Cringe
@@MoarteaLunii *cringe* is you.
that part always gives me chills. I want to cry every time I hear it.
We are different.
Grimes out here continuing her work even while pregnant. I appreciate that. Her body and mind is going through so much rn. People having babies amaze me. Hold that sword hunney! You powerful!!!!
Sometimes women thrive when pregnant more so than before they were. It gives them purpose and focus. You really have to turn into a super woman and pregnancy is the preparation for that. For her particular journey from my understanding she was more into partying and it probably grounded her getting pregnant, now it seems she has been doing more work than ever because she is doing what us all mother's do when in preparation for a child to come. It basically is nesting. She is probably wanting to make as much music as possible because she feels inspired and mentally, physically, and financially you just want to prepare for what is to come.
People don't stop working once they get pregnant. They work usually until the final week of pregnancy.
Yes, but the first year with the newborn tends to be even harder than pregnancy, so I wish her luck!
grimes+elon baby soon. Amazing. future in good hands

She was right ethereal needs to be its own genre.
I broke up with my partner 6 or so months ago, I’m still mourning our relationship and think about him and our dog everyday. While we were together I used to listen to this song on repeat every morning dropping him to work or picking him up from work - knowing that it was always going to end and this really resonated with me.. We played a beautiful game and we lost.. I still adore him. Miss him every day, I hate / love that I always come back to this song, it’s too special to let go of.. ❤
This beautiful song was echoing throughout my dreams last night. I was in a less desirable situation, but Idoru turned the pain into something beautiful. I absolutely adore Grimes & her art

You are the only one

As my fingers tremble
This is what I am
And, and, and you
Fingers tremblin' too

We could play a beautiful game
You could chase me down in the name

I wanna play a beautiful game
Even though we're gonna lose
But I adore you
Adore you
[Verse 2]
You are the only one
Babe, I was so dumb, ooh, ooh
And even though I'm breaking, at least
I feel something (How can you be so mean?)
[Pre-Chorus]
Choose, I say
As my fingers tremble
This is who I am
And, and, and you
Fingers tremblin' too
Understand

We could play a beautiful game
You could chase me down in the name
Of love
I wanna play a beautiful game
Even though we're gonna lose
But I adore you
Adore you
[Bridge]
Unrequited love has reassembled me
I think it's crazy
And if you said I do
I'd reassemble you, baby
And you're so cool
'Cause you don't think you're cool
You can abuse it
Because you made my all-time favorite music
[Interlude]
We could play a beautiful game
We could play a beautiful game
You could chase me down in the name
Of love
I wanna play a beautiful game
Even though we're gonna lose
But I adore you
I adore you
So, I ignore you
[Chorus]
We could play a beautiful game
We could play a beautiful game
You could chase me down in the name
Of love
But there you are, getting away
Think we finally lose
But I adore you
I adore you
I adore you, oh
I adore you
I adore you
I adore you

And in Violence she is holding the Art of War in her hand and reading it.
I didnt like this song at first tbh. Then it grew on me. Like really GREW on me. Haven't stopped playing on repeat for past 24 hours.
Honestly her music in general is like that, and I love it. It’s like that one weird snack you try on a dare and you hate it at first but then you try a little more to make sure you hate it but then you hate it slightly less and it continues until you’re in love with said weird snack.

Yessssssss *chills. Almost on the verge of tears and i hate feelings lol.
It's actually meodyne where she takes the high vocal and pulls it down to a different note that's why it has a slightly unusual but cool sound, you can play with the vocal like clay, but you have to be intuitive to the music as she is - amazing job is my fave part the way it appears
I love this song. Also, Grimes just single handedly exposed her audience to one of the greatest anime ever, Revolutionary Girl Utena! Watch it people, Grimes likes it, so will you
Thats what it is - cheers! i will check out Revelotionary Girl Utena immidately, thank you PS😎
Grimes makes me wanna have a sword real bad
Lmao SAME
And then light it on fire like in Venus Fly...
i've got a sword. more like a dagger
I have one. It was my Dads and it was given to me when I was 14 a few years after he passed away. I guard it with my life and everywhere I have lived, its been by my side. Even in my college dorm! 🤣
To fall upon?
I love the Princess Utena reference. What a fun video and concept.
I must confess that at my boyf's birthday party we had rented a domo house in the middle of the forest, we took some magic mushroom and this song made me cry for happiness
Omg that sounds so beautiful ❤️
98% sure the baby is gonna be made of space and time and probably swords
cereals you were right...
Maybe...codes?
and captcha too :DDD
its named X Æ A-12 btw
😂
Lyrics
You are the only one
Babe, I was so numb
And even though I'm breaking, at least
I feel something (Just like release)
Look, I say
As my fingers tremble
This is what I am
And, and, and you
Fingers tremblin' too
Understand
Yeah, we could play a beautiful game
We could play a beautiful game
You could chase me down in the name
Of love
I wanna play a beautiful game
Even though we're gonna lose
But I adore you
Adore you
You are the only one
Babe, I was so dumb, ooh, ooh
And even though I'm breaking, at least
I feel something (How can you be so mean?)
Choose, I say
As my fingers tremble
This is who I am
And, and, and you
Fingers tremblin' too
Understand
Yeah, we could play a beautiful game
We could play a beautiful game
You could chase me down in the name
Of love
I wanna play a beautiful game
Even though we're gonna lose
But I adore you
Adore you
Unrequited love has reassembled me
I think it's crazy
And if you said I do
I'd reassemble you, baby
And you're so cool
'Cause you don't think you're cool
You can abuse it
Because you made my all-time favorite music 💕
The other half of an Idoru duet:
I was the only one, babe you were so numb
And even though you're breaking at least you feel something.
...How can I be so mean?
Look, you say, as your fingers tremble
"This is what I am"
And I, fingers trembling too, understand
You said we could play a beautiful game
I could chase you down in the name of love
We could play a beautiful game
Even though you know we're gonna lose
You adore me
Adore me
Choose, you say, as your fingers tremble
"This is who I am"
And I, fingers trembling too, understand
Unrequited love has reassembled you
I think it's crazy
And If I say "I do", you'd reassemble me, baby
You think I'm so cool but I don't think I'm cool
I shouldn't be sad
Because I made your all time favorite music
Here I go, getting away
I think we finally lose
But you adore me
Adore me
Adore
Adore
You adore me
The anime scenes are from Revolutionary Girl Utena. Thank me later.
Thank you
Utena is one of my favorite animes of all time, and is SO important to anime and LGBT history imo. My jaw dropped when I saw Utena and Anthy.
@@bensloan3109 SAMEEEEE. Actually, It is my favorite. I can't think of another anime that I like more. Utena Is a truly masterpiece.
@@filenotfound4948 mine is evangelion personally but I like it and utena for similar reasons.
@@bensloan3109 i love Evangelion too!
The part when she sings in a lower tone gives me chills 😍❤️
grimes has literally invented her own genre
Definitely. Figured that out eight years ago.
yah, that genre needs to be tagged on youtube/other sites so I can skip it
@@Narruin ok so leave
Ethereal pop
and who followed it?
I loooooove when she give us a little belly moment. prettiest mom ever.
That pig nose thing? Right...
German Mann der entthront shut up
@@MoarteaLunii you have nothing else to do except hating her (fan behavior obviously), but like really ,don’t you have anything else to do of your life cause that’s pathetic
@@bleepbloop644 You unironically have a poppy profile photo.
its not called "joking" when you're making fun of someone else's physical appearance, and it's not the only comment where you're dissing her so instead of telling me what to do take responsability for your own actions
The actual song and the video here in one whole piece is very hypnotic. I literally can't.
i need more songs with grimes deep vocals omg
The privilege to cry to this and know love and this music exists...Thank you simulation
probably one of the best songs to ever exist
I don't know what to think of Grimes. Prophecy stone brought me here to study your videos.
I never would have thought one of my favorite video games and favorite anime would be featured in a music video by one of my favorite artists.
Listening to this is the first step of my skin care routine.
4:18 chills everytime
Franco Fontana that part makes me cry 🥺 so perfect
@@user-gi4yd3ti9e same i love it
Franco Fontana that part made the album for me
I would love to see a collaboration of Grimes and Bjork. I envision a song so meta that it would make even philosophers scratch their heads trying to figure it out, but it would killer as hell to listen to.
I wanna feel the level of love that this song embodies
"Look, " I say, as my fingers tremble
This is what I am
You, fingers tremblin' too
Understand
The amount of positive energy this song carries 😭😭🤎
I'm so in love with her art. She is so pretty🥺💜 baby x is lucky to have such an amazing artist as a mom. I think she's one of the best artists this last decade. Her music blows me away. 😭🖤
i love the script. it has a really cool aesthetic and i noticed some interesting details about it. It's mostly a 1-to-1 code of english but:
1. it omits c's and q's
2. it has a single symbol for AY, CH, LL, NG, TH, and YE
3. it has a unique symbol for U in "numb" and for I in "I'm"
4. it uses N+G in the word breaking, but NG everywhere else. my guess is that this was an error.
great video and Nier is one of my fave games
The 1st verse reads "you WERE the only one", the subs say "you ARE the only one"... Could be either one, listening to the song...
The omission of the C/Q sound may have been a mistake in the transcription, it's certainly not a "silent" letter... these letters maybe have been intended to be replaced by the "K" character, but if the transcription was made by some automated script that missed the C/Q equivalence, it may have come out blank... The "NG" and "TH" sounds are also represented by one single character in the Runic alphabet and possibly other Scandinavian or Germanic alphabets... Nice to see she spelled "favourite" the Canadian/English way (instead of the American "favorite"). True to her Canadian heritage (unconsciously, probably...)
im so high
tbf, my country's (Philippines) ancient script merges N and G into one character
@Sperg Ultralisk oh awesome. i'll have to give those books a read.
Listened to the opening chords, thought they were annoying, immediately guessed this would end up being my favorite song on the album.
I was right. Listened too many times already ^_^
D Murrman ummm.....
that happens to me a lot with my favorite music for some reason then anywhere from one minute to one year later I'm like how tf did I ever feel anything besides like pure adoration and love for this especially with c and Hana's stuff.
💖
а есть люди, которых раздражало, и потом тоже раздражало)
Im probably looking waaaaay too into it
but it is kind of a reflection of how love is,
annoying and strange to people on the outside or unfamiliar with it
but underneath is a beautiful song to those who open up to it
The pregnant belly at the end made me cry ugly tears Grimes thank you for making this album so special and personal 🖤
i don't think I've found a grimes song that i didn't like, i just wasn't ready for them
This song is so freeing, like you're only ever accepted
I can´t stop listening that part 4:18 - 4:50 its so grimes
This part was playing before I scrolled up to see 4:33 playing on mine. I knew EXACTLY what you meant. It is so Grimes!
It's so beautiful, isn't it?
This song is intoxicatingly gorgeous
time passes and IDORU is still my favorite song of all time
I love that she loves big sounds. Even her mellow stuff is big music..
"Unrequited love has reassembled me,
I think it's crazy
And if you said I do,
I'll reassemble you, baby"
🤖🥰❤️
My 5 y.o. while watching this video:
- Is she like that in real?
- Is this what she thinks of?
- Is she still alive?
- Are her parents dead?
- Why isn't she cold?
Asking the hard hitting questions 😅
As someone who looks after two girls of the same age, the 'is she still alive' and 'are her parents alive?' questions rly cracked me up bc mines ask the same type of shit. (Next one would be 'do you know her? And does she know you?' 😂)
@@oh_sparkling haha whenever I hear kids ask questions like this I think they're trying to place how old the video is... Like, "is she still alive?" (as in, was this a video from 1940, so she's probably be gone by now?) "Ok if she's still alive are her parents still alive?" (maybe it's from the 1980's, so maybe she's still alive but her parents have passed by now)?
That's so funny!!!
Cuuuuute 🥰
As I watch , a tear rolls down the corner of my left eye.
this is one of the most beautiful songs ever made. her vocals... especially when she sings in her lower natural voice. it makes me ASCEND
I have ptsd, pregnancy being a big trigger for me. This is the only piece of related media I can consume that makes me feel joyful, in a sad way. She is so ethereal in a classic beauty meets alternative queer kind of way, all while visibly pregnant, it's so powerful. My brain momentarily overrides the trauma and I cry complicated tears of joy almost every time. I adore it
i don’t know you but this comment made me cry. i hope you’re doing well, and i agree how indescribably beautiful and powerful this video and the whole song is.
I also hope you’re both doing well! Goodness that’s so beautiful to hear/read…it makes the song that much more lovely to me too…I have ptsd but not in the same way-I’m just trying to say I’m proud of you guys and I’m listening to and along with you! What a magical thing!
Wow staring into Grimes eyes for nearly 7min def made me fall further in love lmao
Ur creepy
@@khoobdoo8853 Did you watch the video at all?
@@adaintytune dont worry i agree
I was listening to this a lot before I got pregnant in the beginning of quarantine. Then I found out I was expecting. listened to it throughout my pregnancy. Now playing it for my baby girl. so magical.
