I'm back, this time with a darker video. It's the first time I try to make this kind of video: it should be an analysis of Chuck and Bart's relationship. The first time heard this song, I immediately thought of Chuck and the twisted relationship he had with his crazy father: all the hurt, the lie and the cruelty. I hope you'll like it.
Song: Broken Crown, Mumford & Sons
The video has many voice-overs, they should be understandable, but I'm leaving a transcription anyway.
"What was your father like?"
"Me. Only older and meaner"
"He hated me"
"Sometimes I swear he thinks I killed her. Who knows, maybe I did"
"Unfortunately all I know is what he didn't want. Which is...me"
"You've been a disappointment; you opened your heart to Blair and it made you weak"
"I am everything my father said I was"
"I'm Chuck Bass! No one cares"
"Charles, I beg you. Please, don't turn away from the people that love you, they're the only chance any of us has. And your father never learnt that. I hope that you do"
"Bart sent me money every year to keep me away"
"What kind of loving person would convince you to do this to me?"
"It doesn't make sense. My father has never trusted me with anything. It's like he's setting me up to fail from beyond the grave"
"You're becoming a man in a way that your father never was"
"All I ever wanted was to know him, for him to let me in, and he lied to me till the day he died"
"Everything I believed about my father, everything I thought I wanted to be, what I needed to be for him, it was all based on lies"
"It was a test to see if you were ready to be a Bass. And you failed"
"Failed? I got you out of hiding, I took down your enemies, I built this empire!"
"I want to believe that you cared about me, that I've finally earned my father's love. It' too late for that. You took everything from me. Again and again. I'm going to take everything from you"
"You don't know how hard I have tried to turn you into a man. You still remain the one, big failure of my life."
"You're not a man. A man accepts responsibilities for his actions, a man takes care of his family, a man doesn't pay a mother to abandon her child and then tell hat child his mother is dead. A man doesn't try to have his own son killed"
Credits: Chuck and Bart aren't mine, and neither are the other characters. If they were now Chuck would be a wonderful father, happily married to Blair, surrounded by a loving family, while Bart would be dead...oh, wait. Everything belongs to CW.
