St. Vincent - New York (Official Video) 

Every time I hear it as "New York IS in New York" and I'm like "That's true".

To any young photographers or cinematographers who view this: _THAT'S_ how you use color as an element of composition. What an incredible artist we have in this young woman.

That colour palettte is everything my eyes need to see.

St. Vincent really makes me feel sorry for people my age...40+...that just listen to their 80's or 90s playlists over and over. You're missing some amazing new music. I could listen to 'Prince Johnny' on a loop for an hour straight.

that voice

this album is so powerful to me bc she still has her classic stiff, almost robotic delivery and crisp aesthetics that she def still has in this video but the vulnerability of the lyrics keeps seeping through in her face and her voice. such a beautiful contrast!!! love love love

Is it ok that I cry every time I hear this song?

THE WINK AT THE END

I love the tone of the lyrics - the begrudging remorse and not wanting to admit wrongdoing but still doing so in the choruses anyways - really complex emotion for such a short peice. God I love St. Vincent - easily one of the best projects to make it big this past decade.

Obsessed-- I love everything about this. I think my favorite part is when she gently pulls the swan away from eating her sequined dress

IVE DECIDED TO STAN FOREVER

Great music video; the visual aesthetics, the eye-popping colors, the costumes, the scenery, the directing style, and of course, Annie's performance... all incredible.

I come back to watch this every once in a while cause it’s just so pretty.

This is one of my favorite music videos of all time. The artistic direction is sickening and flawless. The song itself is beautiful and catchy. When I’m feeling some type of way this song comforts me. Thank you St. Vincent for sharing your brilliant mind.

Any Bold Type fans here? What an episode. Excited for the new season!

okey... this is beyond of what my mental capacities are able to process

Man, I am so bummed I'm just really catching on to Annie's work. What an amazing journey for all her long-time fans. Better late than never I guess.

Everything is bright and flashy but her eyes show deep sadness. I love this song.

Annie gave us 3 minutes of rich white woman on hallucinogenics doing errands in Manhattan

omg Annie can play guitar AND piano with her legs

I keep coming back to this song and it still makes my emotions shake. The artistry, visuals, lyrics tell that story so well.

If you contrast this video with her video for "Los Ageless", a song about the city of Los Angeles, you can see that there's so much difference! Both videos are very colorful and beautiful, but in "Los Ageless", St. Vincent is visibly disturbed and even disgusted by organic, natural things. It's about plastic surgery, aesthetics, looking beautiful and synthetic. In this video, you can see her freckles (more of a natural makeup style), there's FIRE, a live animal, live flowers, a breeze blowing through her hair...the difference is so remarkable! Maybe that's why Annie Clark prefers to live in New York City =)

I love the aesthetic of the video! 💜💜💜

As a painter who studied art, I must say that her videos are very innovative and reminiscent of pop art and her style is unique.

The colors remind me a lot of the Digital Witness video. It's cool. Very cool!

that wink at the end cured the last 12 years of my depression

It’s so…sad? the lyrical work makes me sob but the colors make smile.

Just incredible. Such an amazing work of art. I love you Annie Clark!

this is so good it physically hurts.

Here after the WeCrashed ending song, what a MF amazing show!!

The artistic ambiance is absolutely astounding.

1:30 the girl in purple with the cyan balloon looks amazing in those colours holy shit

The fire on the green vegetation as microphone is nice magical. Reminds of the red lights around town burning the green ones. Neat tune minor editing would makes it shine.

Welcome back, Annie. We missed you.

I’m from Russia but I lived in NYC for a couple years and fell in love with this city. And this song makes me cry and miss it so bad. Love it with all my heart.

Yaaas ❤❤❤❤❤ 😭😭😭 I love this song so much

New York isn't New York Without you, love So far in a few blocks To be so low And if I call you from First Avenue Where you're the only motherfucker in the city Who can handle me New love Wasn't true love Back to you, love So much for a home run With some blue bloods If I last-strawed you on 8th Avenue Where you're the only motherfucker in the city Who can stand me I have lost a hero I have lost a friend But for you, darling I'd do it all again I have lost a hero I have lost a friend But for you, darling I'd do it all again New York isn't New York Without you, love Too few of our old crew Left on Astor So if I trade our 'hood For some Hollywood Where you're the only motherfucker in the city who would Only motherfucker in the city who would Only motherfucker in the city who'd forgive me I have lost a hero I have lost a friend But for you, darling I'd do it all again I have lost a hero I have lost a friend But for you, darling I'd do it all again

She is pure art in human form.....I can't warp my head around how amazing she is! How sad the lyrics are and meshed with the amazing visuals punches you in the face with everything!!

Seeing her live was awesome

Pssst - your lettuce is on fire.

It kind of seems like she's leveled up. This has a really strong vibe, like a perfect transition and growth from her previous work (not that her previous work wasn't strong I've loved all of her stuff but this song is seriously badass). And the video is to die for, it's beautiful

“I’ve lost a hero, I’ve lost a friend, but for u darling I’ll do it all again.”

This music video is so gorgeous! The color blocking is amazing and she looks so beautiful, defintely a new era and side of Clark I've never seen before. Excited for more!

perfect NY music... reminds me of a time where searching for love in all the wrong places and partying all night long was a runaway train the youth could never escape.

so many underrated artists in the world ugh;-;

Good lord this is amazing, St Vincent has blessed us yet again and my life will never be the same

How did they make that swan not kill Annie and everyone else on set?

Absolutely LOVE the visuals from her "Masseduction" era!

I missed her!

Here because I finally watched WeCrashed. What a nice cover of Kings of Leon’s “Use Somebody”.

I could literally break down crying to this song. My interpretation is a little cliche, but. It really feels like an incredibly vulnerable confession of pure sorrow, mourning and regret. A heartbreakingly familiar portrayal of how fucking horrible it feels when you finally lose someone who really was special to have in your life, and you in theirs; but you just couldn't make it work despite all the positives, and you'd give anything to them back living and apart of your life in "New York". The loss of that kind of Friend or Relationships is terrifyingly numbing, the calm, dead expression throughout such a vibrant environment in the video is how it can feel being somewhere you love and cherish, but something still feels missing; 00:19 New York isn't New York without you love .

This video is so beautiful, Annie! Thank you so much for sharing it with the world.

2:00 OKAY i'm melting

Best female guitarist in my opinion...

This is so aesthetically pleasing and beautiful! ♥

New Love wasn’t true love back to you love That line resonates with me so much

1:53 cube shot was pretty cool

This is visually magnificent. I've been loving this song for a quite a while 💜

I hope the record contains a hyper-psychotic track. Like how 'Marry Me' had 'Your Lips Are Red', Strange Mercy had 'Northern Lights', 'St Vincent' had 'Bring Me Your Loves'

The song has definitely grown on me. The atmosphere in the chorus is just on another level

Queen

absolutely beautiful, what an interesting and unexpected visual direction for her! When I watched it I felt like it was a tribute to the protagonist of the song.

Looove the colorplay in this video!!! I can't wait for the album and to see the tour!!!

I'm so thankful I heard this striking song years before I saw the video. Music is less subjective.

I come back to this video at least once a month, it gives me so much inspiration.

What else can you say - this is a fucking beautiful song with a lot of heart

I definitely needed this after the 'look what you made me do' vomitus. I'm feeling fine again. Thanks, Annie.

I LOVE YOUUUUUU...... GOD BLESS YOU....

My favorite song and video, iconic Annie

*This song is one of those really nice surprise recommendations in my playlist.*

I've imagined this video so much different of this version. I thought it was going to be something more intimate and more "real", you know? But I liked it, anyway. It's visually appealing and you are BEAUTIFUL as always. Keep doing an amazing job like this one. Love u so much 💕

One of the best songs ever made.

Every shot in this vid is so visually appealing

This song was written for me. It had to be. I don't even know what genre this is, I mainly listen to heavy stuff. These lyrics bruh.

Such a perfect song for the perfect city. I want to be back in New York City.

The definition of creativity

I am so in love with this woman

She's giving me FROOT vibes with some Solange influences, and that's all I needed in my life

First time listening to her and surprised her music is so good! Reminds me of regina spektor and ingrid michaelson etc etc i mean all these female musicians are awesome af!!! Music is cross-generational !!!

Her compelling use of color and art now finally exceeds the attraction of her actual music.

"New love wasn't true love, Back to you, love."

i love her i love her i love her i love her i love her i love her

We crashed sent me here

This is perfect. Just beautiful on every level

This shit is beautiful

you are Vincent ... intelligent, sensual and human ... a beautiful human female .... I love you ... from the first day I saw you, a great artist ... Soul....

SUCH A GOOD VIDEO

This always reminds me of a couple of people who, without them my hometown just lost the zesty flavour and in spite of what I tried couldn't replace it. Great stuff

I was jamming to this in the car and come home and find this. Hell yes.

1:55 - Anyone else at this point in the video from Ann Arbor, Michigan say “hey that looks like our Cube!” And then research it and realize there is an exactly the same spinny Cube in NYC? See, St. V is educational as well as insanely talented. 👏🏼

This song is so underrated

New York is simply brilliant, denoting a compositional ability that it is not absolutely common. I listened to the song many times before watching the video, this because the creative force distracts from pure listening. Music and images create a new structure for the song, the result is magnificent. I bought the vinyl, I'm too old and I still love listening to the Music sitting in an armchair. Many thanks St. Vincent.

Essa é a coisa mais linda que eu já vi

I love your color of music. You're the hero to me like the light of covering Astor. Really thanks to you.

I'd do it all again, too

Oh Annie, the world worships at your feet :)

Who is here from WeCrashed? Also this song belongs in Billions

I can't wait to see this beautiful creature, this underrated guitarist at the Ancienne Belgique again this month! :D love you St.Vincent! OXO! let me be your cheerleader!

love it

i just love that she gave a very colorful music video to this sad song
