    The scene that is played in twin peaks is my favourite one off scene, the lady being thrown out of the booth is just a weird scene but the lack of empathy feels like the evil spreading through the town

    I'm glowing bright, obsidian
    Axolotl, amphibian
    Un-elemental chemicals
    Got me growing six black tentacles
    A little nightmarish, a little maudlin
    Good golly go get the kid some laudanum!
    Salvation's more than I can afford
    Who needs The Devil when you've got The Lord?
    Oh my soul
    Losing control
    Who built this heart?
    Oh my God.
    Now Sister Maggie's coming in fleet-foot
    Baby's got a belly full of black soot
    I've got the feeling I'd better just stay put
    Ah she'll love you better than any real man could
    An accidental amphibian
    I'm growing giddy as a Gideon
    Another head for the chopping board
    Who needs The Devil when you've got The Lord?
    Oh my soul
    Who's in control
    Who built this heart?
    Oh my God.

      Wow. The music video reminds me so much of the desert scene in episode 8 where the parasite crawled down that woman's throat...or that time DoppelCooper crashed his car in South Dakota and threw up Garmonbozia.

  • @DBCOOPER888
    @DBCOOPER888 6 років тому +16

    As a semi lucid dreamer, when this was used in Twin Peaks it sort of felt like that feeling when I'm in the middle of a lucid dream / nightmare and the objective of the original "plotline" keeps slipping away and veers off into new directions and I feel a sense of loss and hopelessness, as if nothing will be resolved satisfactory.
    This was also the vibe I got with the remainder of the season. I don't know if Lynch was going for that sort of mood at all, but knowing his work is heavily influenced by dream logic I wouldn't put it past him.

    • @0v_x0
      @0v_x0 Рік тому +3

      Pretty twin peaks at the end there with the pool and the tree tho. Which is fitting. Otherwise it's a bit more campy horror then Jodorsowski, but draws inspiration, opening scene feels like it's out of the holy mountain, end scene looks like it's out of twin peaks. it's definitely going for dark surrealism but with a comedy/satire base.

    @heysatan8 5 років тому +2

    Ever since I got into David Lynch's work I started to notice all these weird coincidences between me and his work. I was so excited for TP: the return, and it's crazy cuz many of the Roadhouse performances were from bands that I either knew for some time or just started listening to before the show aired. So when those songs, like this one, came on I was beside myself.

      That was the awful tragedy of the scene, no one around her did anything. How could they not tell a grown woman was crawling between them in such a compact crowd? A lot of us in reality wanted to help her, but no one will help her in her world.

    • @roybaty7439
      @roybaty7439 7 років тому +2

      I thought the scene was great, why should biker guys stand while Ruby takes up the entire booth, she wasn't even drinking or eating. If she was really waiting for someone, she would not have crawled around and screamed. You did see later on, the biker guys had their girlfriends join them.

    David Lynch is an artist. He recognises art and introduces it to us. I'm actually quite sad to think he might pass way in 20+ years. There's nobody like him. I wish I was a billionaire, so I could give him limitless funds to make movies and tv series with full artistic freedom.

    The title suggests Cortazar story but the video in fact reminds me of Jodorowsky's Holy Mountain or Zulawski's Possession. And the live performance of it ended up in Lynch's Twin Peaks
    occult enough?

    the more I watch this mv the more I get out of it. Particularly how religion, christ-like, and martyr figures are abused in imagery as their messages are skewed by individuals in order to take advantage of others, those turning them into something completely different than how they began. It's a cycle.

      It's just odd, unorthodox noises --- to add to whatever theme the song is trying to convey, maybe, causing it to be more eccentric than just a trip-hop, witch house type-of-song. Who knows where you're getting "email notification sounds" from, though.
