Caravan Palace - Wonderland 

whoever is the sax player for caravan palace is killing it

Some guy commented that "every frame of this could be on a t-shirt" like a year ago and I can't stop thinking about how amazing a feat that is

This is the song I use to test speakers or headphones. It has so much complexity and range, it really shows when something is lacking bass or clarity or what have you.

I keep coming back to this song over the years becuase it’s the only song that can relate to me and somehow make me feel better, it’s the only thing I turn to other than not going to people I listen to music everyday as a means to keep me calm. But it obviously can’t fix anything unless I make my thoughts a reality like she did.

can we talk about how fucking awesome that animation is

Every frame of this video could be on a T-shirt.

I get the feeling that nobody in the comments has ever fantasized about being the God-Empress of Mankind, because it's pretty clear that that's what's going on in the video.

*LYRICS* [Intro: Sample from "Nutcracker Suite"] Just imagine a trip to a wonderful land Of candy, and jam, and ice cream [Verse 1: Zoé Colotis] I gotta hit that street, you better watch it With a gat that I cock, with a full clip I got the whip, got the pitch, gotta keep it undercover All up in the club, just to live it up See the stone cold face, try to knock it I can't be trapped, never walk, I'm a rocket I got a beat in it, I got a breath in it I got a beat, got a beat, got a beat, a beat, a beat, a beat [Horn Solo/Chorus] [Verse 2: Zoé Colotis] See the big gold chain that I'm rockin'? I got the ring for the bling, not a problem I got a stash full of cash that I owe to my brother All up in the club, just to live it up Look how the streets turn cold when I walk it It's my rules, no man can stop it I throw a kick so quick that'll leave you in the gutter Leave you in the gutter, gutter, gutter, gutter, gutter (See the big gold chain that I'm) [Horn Solo/Chorus] [Chorus: Zoé Colotis] All up in the gut-, all up in the gut- I got all up in, all up in, all up in, all up in the gutter All up in the gut-, all up in the gut- I got all up in, all up in, all up in, all up in the gutter All up in the gut-, all up in the gut- All up in, all up in, all up in, all up in the gutter All up in the gut-, all up in the gut- I got- all up in in the gutter All up in the gut-, all up in the (Ooh!) I got all up in, all up in, all up in, all up in the gutter All up in the gut-, all up in the gut-, all up in the gutter [Interlude: Sample from "Nutcracker Suite"] Just imagine, a wonderful land [Bridge: Zoé Colotis] I know all these things never happened I'm just a random girl with gentle manners In my dreams I rock and I rule the wonderland Rule the wonderland, rule the wonderland Rule the wonderland, wonderland, wonderland, wonderland, land, land, land, land... [Chorus: Zoé Colotis] All up in the gut-, all up in the gut- I got all up in, all up in, all up in, all up in the gutter All up in the gut-, all up in the gut- I got, (Ooh!), all up in the gutter All up in the gut-, all up in the gut- I got all up in, all up in, all up in, all up in the gutter All up in the gut-, all up in the gut-, all up in the gutter [Outro] I got, I got I got

I like how at 2:36 the woman just spawns in like, "Wassup homie"

The red symbolises a dream. The blue symbolises reality. In the end, the lady is blue but the red appeared in reality. Her dreams had taken over her reality.

Mad respect to the animators for making me want to get every frame of this on a t-shirt.

After watching the clip more vividly, I do not leave the mouse that the world of fantasy is a place where a person is surrounded by all the benefits, and against the background of a gray blue reality, she begins to transfer images from the world of dreams to the real world. Caravan palace wrote a story about schizophrenia 👏👏👏

*Kid almost dies, leaving them with undoubtedly some level of trama* Oompa Lumpas: 0:38

red screen - represents a life she wishes she had, she’s dreaming of a life with power. This doesn’t necessarily portray narcissism as it then cuts to the blue screen - “i know all those things never happen”, she’s just a normal girl with a fantasy of dominance and authority. I think the video’s just saying everyone has these types of extreme desires but we don’t actually act upon them in real life, hence the “just imagine” intro

0:37 Best part - the animation in this ten (or so) second sequence is so smooth and irresistible.

whoever was on the sax, really carried this song.

Idk why, but the part with the horse-pillars dancing is extremely satisfying

whoever was the animator, i have mad respect for you. Thats some huge talent! ofcourse the music is just crazy good but that combined with this amazing animation just makes it 20 times better.

The way I see it she's straight up just daydreaming, perhaps to cope. The bridge and end are her saying "yeah, none of that really happens... but it'd be fun, though." She's just having fun.

Who’s here in 2024👇🏾

Why the hell is no one talking about the animation? It's so smooth!

When the smoothest animation in the end gets blocked by the artist's playlist...

Just rocking out to this on my personal playlist again. I could watch this every week.

That "ooh" hits me every time

What if at the end, they all ran away as fast as possible and made her spin like a bdsm bayblade?

all jokes aside, this song is actually really good

Damn, Frieza’s new character arc is wild.

after many years of not listening to this song i have chills from every listen, for me caravan palace is a nostalgic core memory from the early 2010's

The only reason it's animated is because it would be taken down immiedietly if it was live action

Me in minecraft, creative mode: *summons and befriend dogs* How i feel: 1:09

The Ending is literally the definition of being the center of attention.

I love when music videos can be interpretated in many ways, I really hate when music videos dont tell any story or dont have any meaning

Friend: Cool, which album is that? Me:...

This song: * exist * Me: **aggressively imagining my non-existent animation meme**

As somebody with manipulative day dream disorder. This is very relatable. Constantly daydreaming, refusing to accept they are all fake, and living a life of what I wish was real until it becomes reality and the lines of what is fake and what is real blurs.

Some guy commented that "Some guy commented that "every frame of this could be on a t-shirt" like a year ago and I can't stop thinking about how amazing a feat that is" like a year ago and I wholeheartedly agree.

I got a great new haircut today and I think this video about sums up my current confidence level

"I know all these things never happen I'm just a random girl with gentle manners If my dreams aren't rocked and I rule the wonderland" _These lines are _*_gold._*

Lyrics from Google if anyone was curious: Just imagine a trip to a wonderful land of candy and jam, and ice cream I gotta hit that street You better watch it With a gat that I cock with a full clip I got the whip, got the pitch thought I'd keep it undercover All up in the club just to live it up See the stone cold face, Try to knock it I can't be trapped, never walk, I'm a rocket I gotta be in it, I gotta grip in it I gotta be, I gotta be, I gotta get it, get it, get it, get it See the big gold chain that I'm rockin' I got the ring for the bling, not a problem I got a stash full of cash that I owe to my brother All up in the club, just to live it up Look how the streets turn cold when I walk it It's my rules, no man can stop it I throw a kick so quick that'll leave you in the gutter Leave you in the gutter, gutter, gutter All up in the gut All up in the gut I got all up All up in the gutter All up in the gut All up in the gut I got all up All up in the gutter All up in the gut All up in the gut All up in the gut All up in the gutter All up in the gut All up in the gut I got All up in the gutter All up in the gut All up in the All up in the All up in the gutter All up in the gut All up in the gut All up in the gutter Just imagine, wonderful land I know all these things never happen I'm just a random girl with gentle manners In my dreams I rock and I rule the Wonderland, rule the Wonderland, rule the Wonderland, rule the Wonderland All up in the gut All up in the gut I got all up All up in the gutter All up in the gut All up in the gut I got All up in the gutter All up in the gut All up in the gut All up in the gut All up in the gutter All up in the gut All up in the gut All up in the gutter

Coming back to this song in 2024 was the perfect decision, and it still sounds great:)

People are saying this is about feminism or self confidence but I feel like they are watching a different video. This is obviously a dream sequence as introduced in the beginning, noted by both the first sample (Just imagine a trip to a wonderful land...) and the first scene of the video. This video is about a person who dreams of money , power, clothing, and jewels... either because they don't have any or they don't have enough to satisfy them. This character dreams of be held up like a god - walking on people and controlling them with both chains and ropes. Ultimately this character does not care about any of these people around her as they are just objects within her fantasies. This video is not about feminism, nor is it about confidence. It is about pure narcissism and immense self-indulgence.

I am Japanese.I don't understand English, but this song is very cool! I've always loved it♡

I have a theory that this girl and the Gazelle from the Lone Digger music video are the same person. She's an underpaid dancer at a club, that's why she lives in a small one room apartment. She dreams of having power over others because she's stuck in that job, and if she leaves she won't be able to pay rent, or buy food, so she feels forced to work there though she doesn't want to. Notice in the Lone Digger music video she doesn't stop dancing until everyone is passed out (or dead). The fight could be stoped at any time and if she stops she probably gets paid less. Also notice that the bars on the cage she's dancing in Lone Digger, the bars are pink, which is just a lighter shade of red. As the last bar goes out I think it's her ready to make her dreams (red), a reality (blue).

DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THE ANIMATION MEMES PLEASE

I have wached it about 50 times and I am not going to stop.

Every single frame of this could be turned into a t-shirt

This is the first song that made me fall in love with this band, and it will forever be a favorite. From the beautiful bets to some lyrics, it is amazing.

This song with headphones>>>>> anything else

“Follow your dreams” my dreams:

I think people kinda overthinking this one. Sometimes you just want to enjoy a hardcore domme fantasy. Nothing wrong with that.

Some guy commented that 'Some guy commented that "Some guy commented that 'every frame of this could be on a t-shirt' like a year ago and I can't stop thinking about how amazing a feat that is' like a year ago and I wholeheartedly agree." And i fully agree

For what I can tell, the woman has been walked over cause of her kindness (the words “I’m just a random girl with gentle manners”) so she wants adoration, respect, control, power aka Authority has a higher upper. Since there’s a scene of her walking on piles of bodies (and another scene where it’s just a pile of bodies) it was probably all the people in her life that invalidated her/walked over her in her lifetime. And another scene where she has people tied with ropes around their necks, I personally think it’s her having more power and controlling them. Obviously she is probably self aware it’s just a fantasy, saying in the scene where she wakes up/opens her eyes and the words say “I know all these things never happened” but she starts fantasizing about it more and more, the chain, representing the power and control she fantasizes about. And honestly I fantasizing about power n control, walking over all the people that hurt me/walked over me. It’s usually hard to say it when you’re known as the “nice, friendly, lovable” person for everyone, when deep inside you want someone to treat you with respect and not walk over you once they get bored of you. The sound of power and control amuses most who have been walked over for years and years for how they act and their personality, which I don’t blame, I have been walked over for much of my lifetime, the sound of power and control makes me feel envious to those who have it. And you realize you’ll never have that power, and people keep walking over you. Again and again. And soon the envy turns into greed when you fantasize it about it more. I’m probably overreacting but I think more of the meaning is fantasizing a life you’ll never get in general.

I just love how she drops the guy she dances with

Easy. Blue = Reality Red = *Wonderland*

Imagine if this was recreated in theatre. Not exactly everything but key parts to the music video. I always see the main girl dancing and appearing in her most signature moments. The set pieces moving the same as extras would be her “followers”.

Caravan Palace is the best to daydream to, bro.

Goddamn it Alice you fell down the wrong rabbit hole

"imagine a wonderful land" 1:30 * *imagines a land of corpses* *

I usually don’t watch music videos, but this one is my favorite of all time

ugh that ending scene is just **chef's kiss**

No one is gonna talk ab how cool this video is? The art style is 🔥

why do I love the start so much?

This was my introduction to Caravan Palace and electro swing as a whole. It was 2019 and here I am four years later❤

The dislikes is the jealous people who wish have at least 1% the swag that woman has.

Is nobody gonna comment about the animation? like wow, the transitions too.

How you feel when you aced a test you thought you were going to fail

I just still think that this was one of the best songs that simply marked me the rhythm that it takes, it makes me catchy and it is something that I loved and continue to love all the songs of Caravan Palace make me feel the comfort

Remember when people made animation memes with this song? I love 2016 :)

Animation Studio: How weird do you want the Video? CaravanPalace: YES

*_Alice sure became a maniacal psychopath since she left Wonderland. :P_*

This was their first song I discovered. Definitely changed my taste in music!!! Love their music

1:16 i know that this is supposed to be a pile of corpses, but i can't get over how wonderful each and every pose is, probably some of them are copied from well-known greek statues, but they still manage to not look out of place, which is great

so who thinks caravan palace should drop another album

Everyone’s arguing about whether this is about feminism, confidence, narcissism, and just a straight up power fantasy, and I’m just wondering if that’s her hair or a beret Edit: this comment was a joke, can you please stop arguing in the replies? I know that it’s a style of hair, it just kind of looked like a beret to me.

I just came back from the Caravan palace concert in Orlando. My first concert and it was awesome i loved every single moment

It's 2023 and this song is still on my playlist

Studio killer fans: Cherry is a chaotic bisexual This lady dreaming of owning men and women as her pets: hold my beer Edit: 690 nice

people in 2016: wtf people from 2019: *you have no idea*

Han pasado muchos años, y aún así esta es por mucho una de mis canciones favoritas♡

the sax player is the reason why good songs like this exist.

Man: *sneezes* Everyone in 2 km radius: 1:17

song: *exists* tik tok: *it's free real estate*

This song was made 5 years ago yet it still sound good asf!! Thank you Lord for whoever made this person

Just saw a caravan palace concert yesterday. Everyone started cheering when the first part started

2:30 that HABBO HOTEL remake looks sick.

*me casually trying to understand the shape of her hair* okay, ik that theres a lot of artistic choice i should probably also be concerned about but like... thE haIR mAn

보컬 진짜 노래랑 잘어울린다.. 모든게완벽함진짜 가사도좋음 몇번보는지까먹엇다 ㄹㅇ

I absolutely love this song I've been trying to find where it came from for years and I finally found it who knew it was made by my favorite band lol

I love the animation style

Red: Her imagination, what she wanted, and what she could have Blue: her reality, that those things could never happen Purple: those two sides of her mind mingle, fragments of her imagination come into the real world. Eventually she can't take the bareness and boredom of her real life, and tries to bring her imaginary life into it, trying to keep her reputation high in other people's heads so she could trap them and reel them in like in her dream world, but she just ends up imprisoning herself.

Doesn't matter how many Caravan Palace songs I hear, there's always more masterpieces to discover.

Caravan Palace would be one of the most successful artists in the world of they were brought back to the 1920s-1930s

This animation is absolutely superb

I see everyone saying their opinion on what the video means so here I go as well: I think It's about a girl who seeks control and dominance of everything and everyone, so she fantasises about it and her dreams prove too sweet (Linking to the theme of the wonderful land of candy) and then her fantasy overwhelms her sinking into her everyday life (Because of the colours being Blue for the real world and Red for the 'wonderland) and then her 'wonderland' proves to be something she doesn't wan't in the real world (Which is why she doesn't seem to be lying so calmly later in the video) she later chooses to embrace (Symbolised by pulling the people on strings in closer to her) she can no longer tell what's real her 'wonderland' or the blue world so she chooses to let the 'wonderland' consume her, which is why the video ends in red

何回聞いてもこの曲が始まるときのワクワク感が好きすぎる。

i cannot stop listening to this song because of how utterly amazing it is

The best things of Caravan Palace music videos are: 1. The music 2. Teh video 3. The comments lmao

Listening to this with headphones has me vibing on a completely different level 😳✌

I used to watch this 100 times a day

I am French and I can say that your superb music has gone beyond the borders of the world (thank you very much)
