These dancers are incredible. The way the guy moves around without looking like he is doing the moving at all is just beautiful. And the music matches in top notch fashion, as always.
They could not have found better dancers for this. They are INCREDIBLE. Truly. Gorgeous and fluid. What gorgeousness. You feel her pain and panic. Alt-J never ever fail.
What hits me is that she uses her body to animate her partner's body after he has died in an attempt to "bring him back to life"... the story being told is that this would be her last chance to interact with him in the ways they perhaps had when he was living: i.e fighting, rolling around, dancing, kissing, sitting together, etc. All of the emotions that took place between the two of them when he was alive. Like we are watching the life of their relationship flash before our eyes. We see her conflicting desire to touch his body but also being scared of it because it's not him anymore, how she expresses anger, passion and love towards the body. All so very understandable, touching and eerily haunting at the same time.
The bloke is cocaine. For a fleeting moment there, it may give you a bit of comfort, but keep trying with it and it goes nowhere. Stick with the beer and just bump a bit of coke if you get too pissed :)
For me its about addiction and slowly severing a piece of ourselves from another piece of ourselves. Letting go of what's "dead" and what isn't useful for us to survive in a world that is doing its best to numb us out like the male figure already is
alt-J are something really special. Their music is part of the soundtrack of my life, especially their debut album and this new album. Outstanding masterpieces! True artists! Genius! ❤️
@@MeMe-lw5xy hell yeah. I wanted to see them live for a long time since their first record. Never was early enough to catch some tickets but one day I won some tickets and to be honest - one of the best concerts I‘ve ever been!
Addiction. You love it. You can't stand to be away from it. You indulge. Moments later you're disgusted with yourself. But you'll find yourself coming back over and over. This girls facial expressions nailed it.
@@shinyribs2178 I mean you'd think it was obvious but art is subjective. I can't blame people for thinking this is about a different type of toxic relationship
You made me pay attention to this band, I'd already heard breezeblocks, but I never cared to listen to much else. You convinced me to give them a second chance and this new hyper fixation is all your fault.
I just cant even tell you what this song means to me. One of the very few bands that can make me explode into the purest form what I truly feel. RIP little brother.
1:19 The "kiss" is not a kiss. She is trying to resuscitate him. After she tries, her head falls on his chest to hear his heartbeat. So, heart breaking...
The song, with its infectious beat, to the poetic lyrics and unrelenting vibe. To the video, with its bittersweet, heartbreaking visuals, faultless choreography and wide, disorienting shots. All takes you to a vast foreign place I don’t know, but want to live in. alt-J you’re something very amazing.
This shows how painful job to try to heal someone who does not want to be healed. The woman tries her best to get him "alive", but he refuses to do. This was my first thoughts after divorcing an addict person. Perfect song, great video
I kept waiting for a happy ending with baited breath, full well knowing it was not going to happen. Still loved it. I have not been able to get this song out of my head since I first heard it when the album came out but I'm not complaining. It's such a mesmerising tune with such melancholy lyrics. Can't beat those jangly guitars. Simply the best thing I've heard in a decade - as is the entire album.
Line up the choreography awards, that was fantastic. Dude was working every bit as hard as she was, and never once looked like he was anything more than a corpse. Astounding strength and control. Bravo!
@@sp4rkl3z yea thats not easy w/o training and equipment. That being said this story is really about addiction. That is to say falling in love with cocaine is like falling in love with a dead man.
I just watched the video a good couple of times and from what I see the girl just went through the grief phase. 1) Surprise or fear. 2) Anger -> She drags him and moves him hard, for falling into overdose. 3) Bargaining -> She dances with him and carries him, saying in a way, "Relax, I can carry you for the rest of your life". 4) depression -> Perform a little dance with him and drop him. 5) acceptance -> sits on him and drinks.
Amazing, very moving. This could have so easily slipped into unintentional "Weekend at Bernies" style comedy. All credit to the film maker and the performers. Fits the song beautifully.

Its a rare band doing rare music, lets fking appreciate that for a moment

It's the what ifs what path could have they pleased together where I might have their Stars aligned and intersected and ran parallel and possibly turned into a supernova or whatever?.. we will never know because that moment was passed by and they kept walking I picked you for a reason or part on the table I can't remember why I kept scrolling and I stopped on you because you stood out from the pack somehow and sex drugs and rock and roll gets to eventually IE me and sing this now but I appreciate your point of view so another day and wonderland another dollar in Hollywood I guess this is just another example of something I always sign off by saying kindness is key and love is the law and then I throw in a couple meows and howls...

The song being about an actor selling drugs to other actors at a hotel and then setting the music video in an empty, abandoned hotel hall is incredible
I’m so sorry I had dream that my now separated from twin flame Domonic died under a Christmas tree with a needle in his arm and that was now many years ago but is now the direction he is headed

I saw too late that there is a show in Oxford. Can't believe I'm going to miss this show. Devastating. Love the new album. It came perfectly in time with my life. Big love, see you next time alt-j update - Got tickets. Thankyou universe.
This broke me I'm literally shattered, it's like they're doing an interpretive dance of my relationship with my child's father for the last eleven years... I always used to say he was dead inside, even though his body was there he was always a million miles away. I could have his body but that was it. I did everything, I carried us, I fought for us, while he just lay there limp. I picked him up and propped him up with my own body, I did anything I could to get a reaction out of him and nothing ever worked. He said the words I love you but he put as much effort into it as this guy here did. And it kills me to see how hard she's trying, and how frustrating she is and how clearly devastated, she's in denial. And at the end when she finally gives up, she still doesn't leave, she just starts to drink. That's how much she loves him.
If I'd kept practicing to act like I was dead when I tried to fool my sisters at 5, I could be that good, as the actor one day, and finally made them believe that I was dead haha! Besides that, every inch of my body filled with admiration. Fascinating music video and the song of course!
Great tune, great video. My son turned me on to these guys years ago. I’ve been a fan ever since. It’s impossible for me not to be mesmerized by the choreography, and the flow of the music.
Alt -J are insanely good. They are almost like an upbeat Radiohead. Very experimental with each album yet still sounds so themselves and always excellent.
Yes I absolutely agree with that, they are both so very unique. I would also add in Modest Mouse, they are all weirdly wonderful! And Radiohead is my favorite band ever, been listening since '93, I'm old.
Great song! Alt-J music never disappoints. I'm sure I heard the word cocaine mentioned enough times to assume this was about cocaine overdose. She woke up from her "high" but he didn't and then the knowledge of that sinks in and she begins to freak out.
Oh my god, this song was so so amazing live at Madison Square Garden, literally such an incredible experience, I felt so lucky to get to see alt-j in person, and wow this video is really seriously amazing too I’m in awe
Im glad it wasnt just me! Omg i came in here to comment the same thing and saw all if the postings on how amazing everything about this was and almost was like... naw... but YOU! Thank you! It CAN be both, an amazing piece of art in all ways AND a forensics NIGHTMARE of a CSI eppisode waiting to happen. Thank you.🤣
This song is amazing, this videoclip is beyond genius, this is, without a doubt, my favorite band in the world!!! I love u guys, thank you for bringing art into my life.
These dancers are incredible. The way the guy moves around without looking like he is doing the moving at all is just beautiful. And the music matches in top notch fashion, as always.
Meow🤘
Agreed! I'm blown away by this performance AND song! Bravo 👏 once again Alt-j comes through! Love their creativity! 💞❤💞❤💞❤💞❤💞❤💞❤
what do you mean? he's dead...cocaine overdose probably. how could he be dancing? she's just really strong.
he is dead...
thumbs down to the racist flags

Who’s your ghostwriter?
Choreography gave me chills. Perfect with this song.
The dancers did such an amazing job executing it, too!!
is it filmed backwards like Breezeblocks? Something feels unnatural
alt-J are something really special. Their music is part of the soundtrack of my life, especially their debut album and this new album. Outstanding masterpieces! True artists! Genius! ❤️
@@MeMe-lw5xy seeing them live in less than 2 weeks... genuinely so hyped
Agreed! So much so that I made them my first chosen concert since elementary school and I was BLOWN AWAY. Cheesing from ear to ear 😬
@Me me Completely agree. They are the background music the soundtrack all that to my life ❤️
@@MeMe-lw5xy hell yeah. I wanted to see them live for a long time since their first record. Never was early enough to catch some tickets but one day I won some tickets and to be honest - one of the best concerts I‘ve ever been!

Addiction.
You love it. You can't stand to be away from it. You indulge.
Moments later you're disgusted with yourself. But you'll find yourself coming back over and over.
This girls facial expressions nailed it.
So glad to see a comment that actually understands this video is about the burden of addiction
@@andrewsav4865 Right? I mean, Alt-J literally spelled it out to us with the lyrics as well.

That choreography is so well done 👏
Hey I just watched your alt-J video!
Album review coming out when?
Mad respect to you man
😍🤩😍
You made me pay attention to this band, I'd already heard breezeblocks, but I never cared to listen to much else. You convinced me to give them a second chance and this new hyper fixation is all your fault.
How do they make sadness sound so beautiful?? 😭 This song is a masterpiece!
Unfortunately sadness has it’s own attractions.
Sadness can also be beautiful. Without it, we can’t know happiness.
Like Taro.. so eerie
have you heard Hey Ya? A song that will make you want to dance to sadness
I feel like the choreography perfectly encapsulates the momentary insanity one goes through after finding out a loved one has tragically passed away
Once again : how to talk about death, drug, violence, pain… in a very gentle way… only alt-j can do
I’m just happy that Alt -J exists. One of my favorite bands of all time!
I just cant even tell you what this song means to me. One of the very few bands that can make me explode into the purest form what I truly feel. RIP little brother.
This hurts my soul and soothes it all the same... Whoa. Thank you, bless you... 💖💖💖💖
1:19 The "kiss" is not a kiss. She is trying to resuscitate him. After she tries, her head falls on his chest to hear his heartbeat. So, heart breaking...
I’ve had this whole album on repeat since it came out. Definitely a new forever favourite.
Agree, just excellent! Can't get enough and I'll add it's an album that sounds even more incredible on higher end equipment.
Just found Alt-j. The dream on repeat and back cat on way to me…..
I don't know who I'm more impressed with she's strong as heck and he's limp as a doll. Both equally difficult to pull off to appear so effortlessly.
The very end, when she grabs the bottle, gawd that part gives me chills.
I'd stg
As a survivor just crying
Grief, fear, exasperation, grief, fear, anguish, grief, fear, heartbreak, grief, fear anger, grief, fear... Brilliant.
Am I dreaming? Such a great tune!!!
The contemporary in this video has a strong message. Your dead weight to me but I can’t you let you go.
I’ll carry you
The song, with its infectious beat, to the poetic lyrics and unrelenting vibe. To the video, with its bittersweet, heartbreaking visuals, faultless choreography and wide, disorienting shots. All takes you to a vast foreign place I don’t know, but want to live in. alt-J you’re something very amazing.
Expressionism thru visionary, lyricism, and flow of the band has never been so clear since their 1st album.
I'm not sure how to explain it or if it makes any sense, but all of Alt-Js songs make me feel like...myself. Love them forever.
This shows how painful job to try to heal someone who does not want to be healed. The woman tries her best to get him "alive", but he refuses to do. This was my first thoughts after divorcing an addict person. Perfect song, great video
I bet anyone who's ever been in a codependent relationship can relate to this video way too much.
As someone in one, i couldn't agree more. It is exhausting taking turns holding each other up

the section from 2:40 to 2:50 would be nearly impossible to replicate. When they got that you know the room went nuts.
It freaks me out having found my loved one dead and trying to bring them back
@@sp4rkl3z yea thats not easy w/o training and equipment. That being said this story is really about addiction. That is to say falling in love with cocaine is like falling in love with a dead man.
So glad I discovered this band. Their music is sad, happy and enjoyable at the same time. Real jewel!
this is my favorite track on the album. can't wait to hear it live x
Agree! also can't wait to see it live. Just gotta wait 5 more months!
You won’t be disappointed!
I know. I saw them in Auckland after Relaxer. Unreal!
Ive seen 3 lives of them, is not as good as you expect, voices sometimes can be a little bit meh. But instrumental is really nice to listen!
I just watched the video a good couple of times and from what I see the girl just went through the grief phase.
1) Surprise or fear.
2) Anger -> She drags him and moves him hard, for falling into overdose.
3) Bargaining -> She dances with him and carries him, saying in a way, "Relax, I can carry you for the rest of your life".
4) depression -> Perform a little dance with him and drop him.
5) acceptance -> sits on him and drinks.
Amazing, very moving. This could have so easily slipped into unintentional "Weekend at Bernies" style comedy. All credit to the film maker and the performers. Fits the song beautifully.
I'll never again have love like I've had it. But this amazingly dreadful video makes me happy about it. This is heartbreaking.
Lyrics for those like me
“Bricked up a kilo
Paneled down in the back door
All the while I'm riding

Why do I keep on returning to you?

One moment going over scene lines
Grind the scripts
Like teeth
Why do I keep on returning to you?
Cocaine
Cocaine
Swarm of TV cameras
Click and stumble at the Chateau
Later, I hear John's
Body got carried out
Ice cream was a code word
Told to me by a code man
These nice hotels
I don't know your clientele
Why do I keep on returning to you?

Why do I keep on returning to you?

Give it to me now, oh, now
I'm in the deepest end of an empty pool

I'm in the deepest end of an empty pool
Cocaine

I'm in the deepest end of an empty pool
(He's never gonna make it)
(He's never gonna make it in LA)

I mean... just wow. All round perfect.
Can’t wait to watch this.
I liked this song then I realized it as Alt - J and I am now intoxicated by the sound. Amazing talent.
If I'd kept practicing to act like I was dead when I tried to fool my sisters at 5, I could be that good, as the actor one day, and finally made them believe that I was dead haha! Besides that, every inch of my body filled with admiration. Fascinating music video and the song of course!
Great tune, great video. My son turned me on to these guys years ago. I’ve been a fan ever since. It’s impossible for me not to be mesmerized by the choreography, and the flow of the music.
I listen to this when I'm studying some maths. Makes me feel like I'm uncovering the secrets of the universe...
THEY ALWAYS HAVE THE BEST VIDEO'S........💥💥💥💥
Alt -J are insanely good. They are almost like an upbeat Radiohead. Very experimental with each album yet still sounds so themselves and always excellent.
ooh i love the comparison to radiohead!
Yes I absolutely agree with that, they are both so very unique. I would also add in Modest Mouse, they are all weirdly wonderful!
And Radiohead is my favorite band ever, been listening since '93, I'm old.
This is incredibly beautiful
Great song! Alt-J music never disappoints. I'm sure I heard the word cocaine mentioned enough times to assume this was about cocaine overdose. She woke up from her "high" but he didn't and then the knowledge of that sinks in and she begins to freak out.
I believe I read somewhere it was about John Belushi.
@@mellissaalabaster1510 yes Alt J said that when they released the song.
@@mellissaalabaster1510 That's correct. See my notes above about the details,
My god the emotion in this video is astounding!!!
Go Hannah Mason, you legend. You smashed it!😎
Absolutely stunning dancer…let’s hope that we see more or her, star in the making!
Oh my god, this song was so so amazing live at Madison Square Garden, literally such an incredible experience, I felt so lucky to get to see alt-j in person, and wow this video is really seriously amazing too
I’m in awe
That is some insane choreography. This is performance art. Killer song, but that's a given.
This choreography is astounding and very sensual too
Nunca decepcionam nos clipes 😍. Música braba também
This hits the feels! One last dance. Cause she knows it’s it.
She’s so gonna have a time explaining to first responders how she found him, and why he’s not in that position anymore.
😂
Im glad it wasnt just me! Omg i came in here to comment the same thing and saw all if the postings on how amazing everything about this was and almost was like... naw... but YOU! Thank you! It CAN be both, an amazing piece of art in all ways AND a forensics NIGHTMARE of a CSI eppisode waiting to happen. Thank you.🤣
This song is amazing, this videoclip is beyond genius, this is, without a doubt, my favorite band in the world!!! I love u guys, thank you for bringing art into my life.
