Uff, I'm really not yet sure what was behind it. Yet, undeniably, there was a ring to the song, making it now a favorite to go back to over and over again. However, what most caught my attention, initially, was the location. It looks like such a liminal space!
I am personally fond of how it is as if from another time. With the construction, the furniture, the colors, and even the camera. It sort of transports me to when I was growing up and somehow ending up in such places while the grownups were doing their grownup things. Yet, interestingly, in this case, it is empty of other humans (at least in flesh), which is also particularly satisfying, given my innate aversion to crowds and noise. It is difficult to explain, but that’s indeed a dimension that I can sincerely appreciate. Oddly so. Not to be forever stuck within it, but to have at some point experienced.
And of course, it got me with the themes of death, too. As much as I welcome such topics with the ambiance that exacerbates them, it was refreshing to have them in a more casual manner - making it less of a taboo to bring up.
I don’t know what it is intending to portray, exactly, but it is definitely an intriguing and fascinating concept. While words essentially speak of willingly joining in, imagery speaks of an invisible force that can pull and carry someone around and across the room(s).
You could catch me humming and singing along to Birds of a Feather as it trended without realizing the depth of it, though! (Do love it even more now, however...)
