Matteo Belli my friend likes to hit me and threat to fight me if things dont go her way but if i hit her cause they hit me then she "tries" to kill me and her boyfriend and everyone else just doesn't care
Matteo Belli that's a quality not a lot of people have anymore. I'm trying to get it back. Too many people have snapped and attacked me for not minding my own business when I tried to help, but I still want to help.
midnightshadow 335: Well, then I guess it´s not a bad idea to visit some muay-thai classes so next time you can kick the shit out of that "friend" of yours.
Being a rock guy, from zeppelin to manson, I just discovered Moby. I gotta say he puts more heart into his music than almost any other artist. Every song is beautiful
It's what happens every day to people who were forced to go to school as children and pre-conditioned their whole lives to become robotic wage slaves. They have no idea how to be independent human beings.
I know the feeling. When every possible thing could go wrong does. Like when your parents get divorced and you move out of state and you get diagnosed with depression all within six months. Life seems shitty but I got through it.
Moby is a master on handling people's feelings with his music. He has at least one song for all extreme psychological states. This one works for me when I get angry. It has a way to get my anger away. Thanks Moby
This song really helps me. I have discovered some things about me and my family's life recently, that make me believe the life I had was a mirage, a false story that I used to take as reality while being too young to understand. Thank you Moby, I feel like I'm hearing the right words to describe how desperate it feels to mourn a life that never was.
So the guy feels like his relationship is falling apart, his neighborhood is full of enemies and obstacles, he fights a giant wasp, his boss fires him, he kills his boss, he gets robbed, he gets divorced, AND he kills himself, all in a single day. This is truly the Dark Souls of music video animations.
this is the first time I've heard and seen this further Moby's masterpiece...He is alwais so deep going into our minds and feelings that often I surprise myself with a little tear that drop from my eyes. Deep emotion. Please, wait for me.
This was so sad...but it just reminds you that when you thing everyone is ok sometimes all they may need is a kind word, a smile and that may make the whole difference...wow he was turned down even from his wife...well hmm at least this is a cartoon but many people face experiences like this daily so stay positive and keep moving forward...you'll have the last laugh at the end.
As much as i wish i could agree with these words, sadly to often in life its those that do the wrong doing that get the last laugh as the victim has no other recourse but suffer. Trust me i know from experience. How do i know this because i was raped as a child and what was my drunk parents response to this, but to beat the freaking holy hell out of me because 'I was lying" according to the person who did the act, and nothing was done to the perpetrator.
The worst thing about this video is that he has nothing. It's like getting ready to jump, but the floor right below your feet just drops out right when you are springing. It's a horrible feeling to watch this.
This just goes to show that we can have the worst day in the history of worst days but it's what and who we come home to that can truly make or break us. Seeing that last heart break and disappear was so sad for me. Moby, I respect and adore you always.
SlowBurn Funny (well, not so funny) thing about that. I remember when i was 12 I was supposed to put some stuff outside away. A bee (I think it was a yellow jacket, maybe a wasp) was on the thing I needed to pick up, and it started to chase me. so I ran inside the house and explained I would do it in a second, I just got startled because I almost got stung (at the time I had a fear of bees). My landlord\family member started screaming at me and said i was, "spoiled rotten," and that she would be sure my parents gave me more chores to do around the house because of the "lazy behavior" she claimed I just displayed. She then insulted me, making fun of my anxiety (not just for the bee, but in general) and told me to grow up. So when I watched this for the first time, I just remember shaking my head and laughing it off at the boss part because it really felt like watching something inspired by my life.
There is only one solution.. the way control it. Only you could form the path to your own happiness and darkness, and getting caught up in it now certainly wont help you cope with it. Let the future come, but let yourself mold the pathway to it
When the guy in the elevator asked him about the yankees, and he responded yes they certainly are good and/or bad... I love it. Right in the feels. The poor fella with his personal life beginning to crumble, wife growing cold and distant... I can relate to the idea of having to just get up each day and put on your public/society/normal/happy face and venture out into the world and interact with humans... Go to work every day, be polite chatty friendly etc.. The agony of moments of forced friendly phony SMALL TALK.... I dunno. The elevator how bout those yankees I believe got me more than any other part of this video. Beautiful, perfect...
It’s sad . Life can be so draining. Empty. And cold . You are born full of life and love and joy and peace and slowly day by day year by year it hets harder and harder to breath. Your soul is all you have and even that feels sad . A deep longing for something . Comfort. Love . This world lacks it . So we wake up pay bills. No freedom. No life . No love ..
I saw this on the top 10 saddest videos thing and came here. This is literally what happened to me at the end of last year. I mean obviously minus the giant wasp, killing the boss, and some of the other stuff, but I can totally relate to this song.
The guy goes about his daily walk then is suddenly and randomly hit by a giant scary wasp out of the blue. I think the giant wasp represents a random , scary, freak out of the blue occurrence happening that someone has no control over... like death in the family, cancer, accident that leads to disability. Later his boss yells at him and the guy tries to explain about this wasp , but the boss is having none of it. In fact he even refers to another random out of the blue occurrence - spaceships .. He just labels them all as ‘excuses’. The ‘wasps’ that happen in real life can affect a persons mental health and as a result their performance at work ... but in a toxic workplace (which are pretty common as I’m sure most of you are aware) the boss only cares if you do the job.
Man, I discovered this song recently and doesn't it just hits emotionally. Life often just deals the worst cards throughout a day and you don't even have too do anything to deserve it. A lot of days feel like that but ast times it feels like I was meant to be punished for no reason besides to see what will happen.
I remember being 11 when this song came out. I could never remember the name, but I remembered the video, and its bittersweet because well...I understand it more personally now.
Carlie Mae i hate how cold blooded that "im leaving you" is i know this will happen to me in my future cause guys just can't "leave" we are programmed to "be a man" and "treat others like you wanna be treated" i can't say my problems out loud cause they are psychological and i just can't do that woman shit where you talk to some relative how you are.
Watchmojo brought me here. This is a very sad video, very depressing. I have felt in that situation many times in my life, and felt (and tried) to end the game of life myself... I'm glad I didn't achieve it. If there's anything I could say to that little character is... Hold on! Time cures everything... it will soon pass and tomorrow is another day! Feel like a geek to admit I teared up watching this... but it hit home hard.
I'm gonna ask you to look away I love my hands, but it hurts to pray Life I have isn't what I've seen The sky is not blue and the field's not green Wait for me... I'm gonna ask you to look away A broken life will never stay Tried to hard and I always lay Days are grey and nights are black Wait for me...
This is a great project! I loved the idea! A bit sad though, I can imagine how that would feel for the guy. Game over man, game over... :( Keep up the good work!
,, when I watched this video for the first time I´d tears in my eyes ... ,, even after these bad situations that he had in his day she didn´t care about anything and eventhought he loved her, she left him ... so sad :´-(
The amount of fucking empathy I got from not only the animation, but the song too. The depressing vibes from this vid in general actually fucking terrified me.
