ok so. i have been listening multiple times to a song that got kind of viral on youtube, at this day it's up to 16Mln visuals, the song is called Bubble or more correctly in japanese "ヨルシカ - あぶく" and it's from an artist that i am now slowly discovering, i have watched few videos of musicians, artists and stuff react to this video, and most of them MAYBE for the sake of the video, the camera or genuinely couldn't find an interpretation to neither the video or lyrics. i have few thougts to dump here.

ok so, FIRST OF ALL, of course this is all over-analysis i guess or still, what we call in italian "Supercazzolaconscappellamentoadestra" and ye, sorry, not a single non italian will get this, it's a kind of close reference, in short i'm over analyzing a LOT here, but hoping to get some conversations starter for you aswell, who knows, but what i think this video represent is an extremisastion of feeling stuck in a moment in time, unable to do anything to move away or break out, this is what a bubble can represent, it's a barrier that you don't know how to break, and for this to be a moment where you're unable to do anything to break out they have put the very interesting choice of someone basically set up to keep killing you to maintain you in the loop, the killer is just the most extreme way to represent something that completely kills your motivation, your willingness to live and keep going, thrive for something different, as you watch throught the video, the guy gets slowly completely out of touch for the insane situation that he is in, he got used to it, after all the different tries he did. and then, out of frustration tries something that accidentaly was the right choice for him, breaking the tv that is in front, where we are, watching and noticing this pattern, and so, he gets one last chance, he frees us right before the killer comes and a battle between the two starts, and it ends up with him finally leaving the room, freeing himself of that weight and struggle, while we now are the one stuck in such situation...

So why am i saying that. to put it short, there is no such action that doesn't have a consequence, this is all in a very strong message for the video, the video makes us feel empathy for the crazy situation the guy ended up being into, in such a timeloop where he constantly dies and repeats itself, until, he dragges us, and for his own sake, he leaves and makes us end up in the loop instead of him, this leaves us in a situation of confusion, should we feel betrayed? offended? we saw how shitty his situation was, and now, we are in his shoes. this is the reminder that for any situation you're stuck in, if you free yourself of that, there is a high chance that someone else will end up replacing you, or in part having to deal with what you did... to be clear, not always it's like this, it's not an universal message, but i think it's pretty well portrayed here, mostly in a really interesting way, the lyrics are really really interesting too, in my opinion they are describing slowly the full development of the guy being in the time loop, and it's interesting seeing how on each "big" phase, when he does put the big fight against the guy, there is a similar but different description of himself.

now. because i am a crazy ass peep, i will post the ENTIRE lyrics. this lyrics are straight up copied from the official subtitles of the song, no translations, NOTHING. i did check few websites and they all translate the lyrics, which... i guess can work, but the phrasing does change a bit, for how certain things are said and stuff, so... feel free to read them, i added for sake of context in quotes like "" the main section, like "FIRST FIGHT" or "REALISATION" for when he discover that we are behind the tv and all... enjoy!

Massive dump on a song i have just heard
