Grimes - We Appreciate Power (Lyric Video) 

When the character select screen has really good music

X Æ A-12: Mom, can you sing me a lullaby? Grimes:

"the computer may have taken artistic liberties in these translations" omg I love that

This song actually fucking terrifies me, the guitar, the vocals, the screams, it all just gives me goosebumps, this song is awesome and absolutely terrifying at the same time.

When the lyrics said: [Screams] I really felt that

"The computer may have taken artistic liberties in these translations" that's my favourite part of this whole video 😄😄😄

JUST A LYRIC VIDEO? HONEY THIS WAS A PRODUCTION

I can hear poppys contribution in this song. the way the lyrics are sung is very comparable to "time is up" and am i a girl in general. But the composition generally just makes me cry. That crash/swing was so cleverly used in poppys song and this one too. The screams are so fitting. And just match with choke EP and just 😭

First listen: This is good. Second listen: Oh this is really good Listen 351: Ah shit.. Better hear it one more time tho..

Can't believe how overlooked this song is. It's one of her best imo

Every electronic device in my house: *We appreciate power*

This song about to be real sooner than we thought.

One of the coolest tracks I've heard all year. Loving the NIN/Depeche mode vibes!

Are you telling me grimes has existed this whole time. And here I was, completely unaware until now?

Listening to Grimes during the quarantine makes me afraid of what will happen after this quarantine...

This song is an absolute apocalyptic banger!

This is exactly what I thought I would be listening to in 2018.

the more agressively industrial the better for me, im excited

We appreciate talent

I love how this song is so underrated yet it's the most catchy song I ever heard, and listening to it around 2023, is ironic cause AI is starting to grow and this made me love it.

*i've never heard such ear-pleasing screams before*

Grimes has mastered the ‘weird but cool’ thing

talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before

My favourite part of the song is from 2:40 to 3:15, I keep replaying it over and over, its amazing!

I like the heavy guitars in this song. I wonder if Grimes will ever get back to this sound. I look forward to what she comes up with next.

So ready for the new age of Grimes

Word of the Day : C A P I T U L A T E

I’m so angry Grimes and Poppy had a fallout. There are only so many times you play We Appreciate Power and Play Destroy on repeat. Their collab was so incredible. They produce the best music together!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭

I don't understand how her talking voice is deep and her singing voice is so high pitched. I'm not complaining just amazed!!

I still can't believe this girl makes all her own beats, she is so talented my god!!!

This has a "Customize your Player" video game feel to it.

"Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them." -Frank Herbert

Been waiting since art angels and I’m not disappointed. I’m so hyped for this new album!!

The mid 2000's screensaver on each side of the video is what makes it work.

is this that WAP song everyone keeps talking about

Her voice gives me chills that radiate up and down my body.

we appreciate talent

I appreciate your power, World Princess.

Every album from Grimes is diferent, unique and awesome, so talented girl. I cant wait to listen the complete album.

I want her to do more like this she'd be the coolest cyber rockstar

Finally a good live-action anime

i'm still obsessed with this song.

if grimes and hana don't make this into a 5 hour long sci-fi thriller movie i'll be very disappointed

Seeing this song live was an incredible experience ❤ They performed outside my workplace in Bristol and overheard them rehearsing this too along with the bitter end ❤

God, we went from ethereal woodlands music to this and honestly I’m not complaining at all.

I love the industrial fused with pop and how airy her voice can get. I like the cyberpunk vibe

I like to think of this as one those weird late night adverts trying to sell off weapons to aliens

0:26 THIS CHORUS HAS NO RIGHT SOUNDING THIS LIT!!

"the computer may have taken artistic liberties in these translations" lmao they sure did

she wrote this song so the AI of the future will know she is cool with them. So they don't enslave her brain. Is that true Grimes???? I need to know I can't sleep

WAIT THIS SONG BANGS LIKE JUST WHEN I THOUGHT I COULDNT LOVE THIS WOMAN MORE

"Biology is superficial, intelligence is artificial" is such a good line. It sounds just like something a very high tech artificial intelligence who looks down on humanity would say.

The only WAP I care about

The word "appreciate" also means "grow", like money appreciating interest. So it could also mean *we grow in power.*

Grimes is probably the coolest person i dont even know

i love hana and grimes sm

Me: “Alexa, play me your favorite track of all time” Alexa: [SCREAMS]

Grimes needs to create her own anime, write a script, animated her drawings, write a soundtrack to it!!!! IT WILL BE TOP

I played this song really loud and my cat started freaking out! She doesn't appreciate power.

Not to doompost, but remember when this song was a dystopian sci-fi fantasy and not on the verge of becoming our reality.

If this is just the lyric video I can't imagine the official one 😭❤️

Finally! Our Lord and Savior Grimes has delivered us once more the gift of her bomb ass music. Praise be!

We appreciate good music.

I love the fact that Grimes translates these screen titles to Russian and Chinese... it's funny, sarcastic, pink, epic and also giving me chills

How does 2 girls spinning around with some lights hold so much power and give me chills.. amazing ✨💛

I can't believe this is "just" a lyric video. Loved the song, can't wait for whatever c has prepared for us

This is a work of genius.

Im OBSESSED with this track :d just imagine a whole new full-length album that sounds exactly like this, it would be the release of the year

I love it, the costumes remind me of evangelion

I want to say something, I know know Grimes doesn't think much of herself as a vocalist but I think if any one else sang her songs it just wouldn't be the same! I think there's something ethereal, cute, funky, and unique about her voice and I'm glad she sings her own songs!

i dont like how relevant this song has become

grimes: S U B M I T me: anything for you mom

I love how they look like they are creating CG characters like actors with motion capture suits, action figures and avatars at the same time and how the subtitles look like your average forum anime translated subtitles.

we appreciate grimes........ .......

The new season of Totally Spies looks great!

This sounds so cyberpunk... and i love it This should be added to the game too

Nobody can stop her imagination.. I hope she put it in the next album...

In reference to the lyrics, I love how she appreciates other languages. More artists need to follow her example and add additional languages to their lyric videos so that more and more humans can enjoy👍🏼❤️

It's real simple....you see a Grimes video, you hit play...... repeatedly!

I just realized that the Grimes with the plush bunny is the physical human being who is hooked up to the AI and she drops her head because she's entering the game and exiting reality. Then all of the scenes with Grimes and Hana on platforms with weapons are like the character select screens in video games, with different female models and weaponry. Then Grimes shoots Hana in the head, but she immediately comes back to life because she's digital. It's then Grimes realizes that she is not in control and nothing she does matters because it isn't physically happening in reality. That's why there's the scene at the end where Grimes and Hana are in that little box, with Hana's head split open to reveal machine parts, as she's not an actual human being. Grimes then screams because she's trapped in this world that isn't anything like she imagined. The final screen apologizes on behalf of the AI overlords. Overlord being like a duke permitting serfs to live and eek out an existence on a small portion of it, without ever being allowed to own it, but having to pay regular fees and taxes to the said duke. Sort of like how an AI would be in control and essentially own the cyberspace within its control, and would give those who entered its simulations an experience of their choosing, with the ability to do whatever it wants. Including holding users hostage or torturing them. I can't say for sure that's what the narrative of this video is saying, but it just clicked in my mind.

One year later and this shit still slaps my mind, not much like this out there tbh

I want the version with Poppy!

Somehow more Cyberpunk than the song you wrote for Cyberpunk. Love this track.

So... Grimes goes "industrial rock" now? Not bad. There's essentially nothing this woman *can't* do.

We need more songs like this amazing industrial

the "biology is superficial, intelligence is artificial" segment is my favourite. the guitar and the siren sound in the background? A+++

These lyrics are insane.

Directed by: Grimes ✔️ Talent: Grimes ✔️ Concept: Grimes ✔️ Editor: Grimes ✔️ Color: Grimes ✔️ Styling/makeup: Grimes ✔️ Produced (song) by: Grimes ✔️ We stan a *polymath*

She warned us.

Editor: What kind of effects do you want? Grimes: Wait... I'm the f*cking editor

As a guitar player I feel way too much pressure to like this song. In no way is it bad, I'm just way too impressed by the engineering and and time that went into this. Incredible

top 10 anime openings

the best poses to do any action figure.

OI GRIMES -_-_-_-_- Do a whole album like this

Grimes I’ve been with you since 2013 I love seeing the creative journey you are on

the scariest thing is that we don't know if Grimes is serious or not in this song

Heard like 2 secs of this song on a different video and those couple secs sounded badass. Had to listen to the whole thing

would be awesome if this song was played in cyberpunk 2077

most people dont know the original tune was about how much she appreciated getting flowers but her management thought that was too off brand with the times.

If someone had told me all i needed to do to date grimes was become a multibillionaire I would've tried a little harder in life.
