Mitski's new album 'The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We', featuring the song "My Love Mine All Mine" is out now. Watch the music video: th-cam.com/video/vx4kLgnFexo/w-d-xo.html Listen to the album: mitski.lnk.to/TLIIASAW
i remember seeing people on tumblr refer to mitski and her music as "cottagecore" and "feral," and now i realize that to dilute her to some aesthetic is borderline criminal
This song makes me have butterflies in my stomach during the "How i feel this river rushing trought my VEINS with nowhere else to it circles round. I'M LIQUID SMOOTH"
I'm beautiful, I know cause it's the season But what am I to do with all this beauty? Biology, I am an organism, I'm chemical That's all, that is all I'm liquid smooth, come touch me, too And feel my skin is plump and full of life I'm in my prime I'm liquid smooth, come touch me, too I'm at my highest peak, I'm ripe About to fall, capture me Or at least take my picture Kuzurete yuku maeni I'm pulsing, my blood is red and unafraid of living Beginning to end I'm liquid smooth, come touch me, too And feel my skin is plump and full of life I'm in my prime I'm liquid smooth, come touch me, too I'm at my highest peak, I'm ripe About to fall How I feel this river rushing through my veins With nowhere else to go, it circles 'round I'm liquid smooth, come touch me, too And feel my skin is plump and full of life I'm in my prime I'm liquid smooth, come touch me, too I'm at my highest peak, I'm ripe About to fall, capture me
the craziest part about this entire album is that she made it when she was 20 in her college dorm for one of her classes. she delivers such a beautiful vocal performance in this song
@selfproclaimedesper778 I hate when people belittle "unconventional" SA (ie. Child on child. Same sex, male victim, older person being the victim) Everyone deserves love and support. Especially male victims cause often they're only used as a gotcha to women. Like people only suddenly care about them when it's to put others down.
Not sure why ppl think this song is explicitly about sex. In fact, when I first heard it I thought it was about realizing youth and beauty are a privilege and desiring for others to recognize it in you before it fades (“capture me.. or at least take my picture”-enjoy how young and beautiful I am in this moment ; “I’m liquid smooth, come touch me too... my skin is plump and full of life, my blood is red and unafraid of living, *I’m in my prime* ”-all references to how beautiful and fearless we are, almost by default, in our youth) The beginning of the song referencing how we’re just chemicals, organisms, biology and asking what are we to do with so much beauty. Asking for someone to capture it because it won’t be around forever (“at my highest peak, about to fall” and the part in Japanese relating to crumbing and falling apart) (Yes, of course sex could be a part of this but I’ve always heard this with the tone that suggests fleeting youth and being afraid of wasting it or having it go to waste, rather, and for that reason, I’ve never heard this as a sexual song... but a sad, even, scary one)🌹🥀
i think the sex drive, the desire, angle of it is deliberate in its sadness. she (the voice in this song, not necessarily mitski) wants someone to desire her while she is young and pretty, and doesn't want her youth to be wasted alone, as she has been conditioned to think it would be by beauty standards, by society. its not a good sexual, she doesnt really want it for herself
*As someone who is on the ace spectrum, but who also experiences hypersexual episodes, I’ve found a strange sense of comfort in this song. It just strikes a cord with me that not many songs have been able to. It’s so beautiful yet so deep at the same time. It perfectly captures how it feels to be almost totally repulsed by sex but also be obsessed with the thought of it endlessly, at least for me. Mitski is a goddess, all of her songs are bangers but this is one of the few that hit me where it hurts*
Not in a mean way but, if it's not too personal-how does that work? I'm not an ace person so I don't want to be rude but if it's okay I'd like to hear from someone who's experienced it what that feels like/means 👉👈

@@bonzi_bonzi it can be interpreted differently but i think it’s about being used for how you look (especially being very young) and knowing that you will only get worse from there. as well as about SA.
this hits so much harder when you've been sexually assaulted and you feel like you need to sexualize yourself to feel anything or get any praise for anything
I love this song, it feels like a song about women sexuality and how it’s portrayed in media, how when you are a certain age, you are told that you are in ripe and in your prime, and certain things have to be done at a certain age, like “yeah, come get me, I’m ripe like a fruit come get me” biology I am an organism I’m chemical and that’s all really says “I’m objectified, just an organism” and at least take my picture Kuzurete yuku maiani (before I crumble/fall apart) really says “come get me before I’m not ripe anymore, before I spoil”
Ik a lot of people interpret this song to be about over sexualization, but personally I think it's about being so desperately affection starved/feeling like you are wasting your youth by not being "loved". Especially "or at least take my picture" (at least love me for a bit) and "beginning to end" (she is at the peak of her youth, or at least she thinks she is, and she will soon become older, and in her perspective -undesirable.)
Exactly. I scrolled through the comments and all I see is oversexualisation and SA references but... it doesn't have to be about that. It can just be about the crushing weight of knowing now you're in your best shape, but no one will ever love you.
honestly, this reminds me of how my mom is so frantic to still seem young, and how she thinks that she’s so ugly even though she is wonderful the way she is. i’ve watched her in this almost panicked state all my life, and it’s beginning to rub off on me. it’s obvious that she feels so pressured to stay sexy and whatnot, and it honestly kind of breaks my heart. i’m afraid of aging, i’m afraid of losing my youth. i’m afraid of losing the little bit of beauty that i have, if any. n’ i’m afraid that i’m missing out on what it’s like to b a teen.
im late to this but i relate so much. my mom will always talk about her younger self as if that version was somehow an entirely different person to her current self. she views herself now as ugly and old even though i, and many people believe she is still gorgeous. and honestly i feel for her but at the same time she has made me so scared of aging and has even made me insecure with my current features. i wish they realized talking down on themselves, at whatever age they are, can have a negative affect on their children. if they don’t even like themselves, how are we supposed to be comfortable with ourselves either?
This hit so hard. My mom is always buying products that she think will make her look younger (they probably won't), and I just want her to truly recognize her beauty as it is. Society in general, has this strange obsession with the younger generations- I've heard someone say, "it's if your life ends when you get to 40".
My mom is the same. She’s depressed now because she turned 40, she’s always crying, sleeping, suffering, hating her body and wrinkles, crying about how she’s not young anymore and how men won’t ever love her (it’s true, men are cruel and superficial). I’m 23, almost 24, I’m still a virgin, I’m pretty but waiting my youth because I’m afraid of men using me
i agree with you, but for this song i think female fits, because not everyone born a female identifies as a woman but they were still born a female and understand the struggles and oppression that all females have faced
@@niori9991 yeah i guess i also mean afab ppl because they’re usually burdened with standards from a very young age and that’s not really only exclusive to people who identify as a woman
I interpret this song as a cry of despair at realising you're at your "peak beauty" and yearning to be loved/noticed before it's too late. Craving for validation. It's like reaching the top of a cliff and realising that there's nowhere else to go from the highest point - it's just a free fall, which I interpret as the process of getting older. There's nothing wrong with getting older, but being a woman in this century I totally understand this perspective, having passed my mid-20s I've found myself having the same thoughts that the lyrics describe.
@@ney_1534 I mean even if a song has a meaning the point of songs is that people can interpret in many different ways and see their own experience in a song even if that's not the original meaning. As long as the actual meaning isn't ignored, nothing wrong with interpreting it in your own way
I told my music teacher to listen to this specific Mitski song this weekend, I am determined to turn him into a Mitski Stan by the end of the year Update: I didn't have much luck with the music teacher, but with my tech teacher I did! He likes Puberty 2 and Retired from sad, New Career in business!
This song makes me sad because its how i feel everyday. I feel that my life, my youth is slipping away and im wasting it and im not having fun and going out like all the other young people
I'm in my 20's and this song sums up this part of my life. "I'm beautiful i know cause it's the season but what am I to do with all this beauty?" "I'm ripe about to fall, capture me or at least take my picture" this is exacly how it feels know that you will never be that young again and feel anxiety thinking that you're not living life enough and you're not being praised as you think you should.
possibly my favourite mitski song, its so poetic and meaningful - even a comment on society and the pressure women and teenage girls are under to 'live freely' while they can; and the instrumentals are amazing,
This song fr reminds me of how much I want to be wanted so much so that I've thrown myself in to harms way and let older men have their way with me shit makes me fucking cry bro
i feel like this song is about everyone telling women 16 to 23 that they are at their prime and should live life then and find a man and settle down before they fall and get unattractive. so i feel like this is a woman not knowing what to do with her ending prime time and getting desparate.
this hits different when all you want it validation. And to be seen as beautiful not by yourself but by others. it’s hits different when you wake up at 6 in the morning to do your hair, skin, uniform, jewellery, everything. hoping to be seen beautiful in everyone’s eyes. it hits different when you have to suck in everywhere you go and live in pain and uncomfortableness every where you are because you need to look beautiful. it hits different when you’ve been sexualised your whole life to that you now need validation by those around you to be seen as beautiful.
I know I’m late to this but I wanna ramble. I don’t know if this is what this song is about, but I relate to it in a “hopeless romantic” kind of way. This song perfectly reminds me of the feeling of being touch starved and longing for someone, anyone, to just come and care for me and hold me. Even if they don’t actually love me I just want to feel cared for. It’s a strong feeling of loneliness and longing that this song perfectly gets down
It really does, and it's probably not intentional, but it's definitely kinda ironic. Bond movies (especially the older ones) have so much sexualization of young women, and are representative of the ultimate male fantasy, things that mitski is criticizing in the lyrics.
her voice range is absolutely unreal. this song is so atmospheric and genius. in 40 years time mitski will be remembered the way we remember classic rock legends, i just hope she gets more appreciation right now for the amazing work she's doing and the barriers she's breaking down. she has so much substance and meaning behind her style. we are truly in the presence of a once in a generation genius.
You can still relate to this song if you’re not a woman. I think anyone with sexual trauma understands that feeling of needing to be wanted and being scared you’re undesirable.
@@Otra_Chica_de_Internet I don’t understand what you’re asking or how that’s relevant to what I’m saying, as I was saying anyone with sexual trauma has feelings like the song is describing- not that the song is about the effects of sexual trauma.
@@Otra_Chica_de_Internet Music is all about how you interpret it. As many of the other comments explain, some feel it’s about sexual assault or the hypersexualization of children and women. There’s tons of different interpretations :)
Man, listening to this while smoking is kinda a transcendent experience. Feeling the rush of calm and slightly lamenting beauty of it is really grounding
I have no words for how much I love every single one of mitski's songs...the pure artistry and raw emotion, her range, poetic lyricism, the genuinity of it all.
To me this song is about how a teen or young adult has never been noticed romantically before and because of society is scared that their “clock” of youth is running out of time, thus they won’t have any experiences at all and try to grasp at what they can while they can, thinking that aging will make them less desirable or loved so they must act now or they’ll never get a chance “what am I to do with all this beauty” is that they want to use their beauty while their “in my prime” or “ripe” or have someone “at least take their picture” so they won’t lose all this beauty of their youth on nothing or something futile, so they want to experience what having a romantic experience or partner is like
I imagine this song as the most purest rawest emotion perceived as a simple painting, a painting of a beautiful green forest with nothing more than grass, trees, bushes, and a couple rocks laying around, in the middle, theres a women dressed in her cleanest clothes having the most emotional self destruction of her entire life, completely destroyed by whatever had shattered her life. I love it!!!
"Im liquid smooth come touch me to" Honestly makes me wanna cry bc of how I've always been tossed and thrown around nobody has ever tried to help and just want someone to actually touch me and care about how I feel
@@user-yt1pq4pp1i I know i'm a stranger and this may seem weird but I really hope everything gets better, I'm sorry you're going through whatever you're going through right now and I genuinely wish the best for you!!
definitely about the fact how a girl feels like her beauty and youth and womanhood needs to be used enough before she becomes undesirable to society because of age
idk this song makes me anxious about growing up and then suddenly instead of staying how i want myself to be, starting to grow old im 14 and im scared of growing up ok i dont want people who i love to die and myself to get all wrinkled and alone, its scary
I am 20 and do not worry about death - it will come and there is nothing you can do about it, and that's alright. There is this quote, i don't remember exactly, it goes like "Life is like a play, not judged by length but by how good the story and the actors are." You can check out Seneca's letter to Lucillius, it helped me edit: Sry the book's name was "Moral letters to Lucilius"
You are fourteen so you are allowed to not want to be grown up. You dont have to worry now because it is still years away before you will be an adult. So, I know it is easier said than done, but I recommend trying to not think about the future too much. If you focus more on the now, I think you wont really notice that you are maturing. Then, when you are older, I think you will not be as scared anymore because you have lived and cherished your youth and are ready and well-equiped for your next steps in life and you wont want to be fourteen anymore. It is the natural process of growing up. As an adult you have agency over your own life. You can choose what to engage yourself in, who you want to meet, who you want to spend your life with. To me, death is the least scary part of life; I see it as a whole state of peace without worries. But if you take control over your life and, most importantly, try to do things you enjoy with people you enjoy, your adult life wont be made up of fear, but rather of freedom and joy.
You ever wanna rip off every vestige of your womanhood and scream in the dark of a cave? Alone, truely unknown, always truthfully unloved. But you just kinda have to sit in the world empty in every way but the way you wanna be.
so many things make this hit hard. being a teen wasting away bc of covid, being lonely, the guilt of being trans, regretting not doing more with your life, jesus
hey, I don't know if I have the right to sympathize with you but... I'm bigender and the guilt is real for me too but that doesn't mean that both of us won't be free from that. Let's go and walk forward with our chins up, since that's the only thing we can do right now so far.
I'm beautiful, I know, 'cause it's the season But what am I to do with all this beauty Biology, I am an organism I'm chemical That's all, that is all I'm liquid smooth come touch me too and feel my skin is plump and full of life I'm in my prime I'm liquid smooth come touch me too I'm at my highest peak, I'm ripe, about to fall Capture me or at least take my picture Kuzurete yuku maeni [Japanese] I'm pulsing my blood is red and unafraid of living beginning to end I'm liquid smooth come touch me too and feel my skin is plump and full of life I'm in my prime I'm liquid smooth come touch me too I'm at my highest peak, I'm ripe, about to fall How I feel this river rushing through my veins with no where else to go, it circles round I'm liquid smooth come touch me too and feel my skin is plump and full of life I'm in my prime I'm liquid smooth come touch me too I'm at my highest peak, I'm ripe, about to fall Capture me...
I have a particular interpretation of this song, I relate it a lot to my personal experience. I feel it’s about craving not only sex, but affection, personal connection, it’s a need to feel wanted and loved. I’ve been feeling very touch starved lately, I feel that it’s a lot about having a lot of passion and desire, particularly tied to love and tenderness. It’s about sex but not only about sex. It’s about starting to feel like a woman as a teenage girl, starting to feel how people look at you like a woman, and feeling the need to be loved as this new aspect of your personality.
"I'm At My Highest Peak, I'm Ripe, About To Fall Capture Me." "How I Feel This River, Rushing Through My Veins With Nowhere Else To Go It Circles Round, I'm Liquid Smooth."
the angry and manic tone of the instruments paired with the meaning of the lyrics perfectly describe a feeling i thought that no one else felt now if you'll excuse me i've got to go angrily sob and wait for the day that i feel clean again
This is Mitski’s best album. I mean all her albums are beautiful but this one is from the core of her heart, the production complements her voice perfectly.
i feel like this is showing how we (women) are treated as we are just a body to be toyed with. nothing more. but if that is all we are then that’s what we should talk about. almost like the only way we can have any sort of love is having a fresh body. i feel like she is saying that she is an "organism" and she is "plump" and "full of life" meaning that she is "fresh enough" so this is the only way she could gain any sort of love. her body is liquid smooth. she is an object. the writing is disgustingly beautiful. it shows how hard being a women is. not to mention how women of color are constantly fetishized. she is just an object to be used. and we cant gain anymore "love" when we are old. thats why she says things like "im ripe" and "im in my prime"
The first chord of this is the same chord that ends When She Loved Me from Toy Story 2, so it is an AMAZING but also SPOOKY transition whenever you listen to Toy Story and then this

I love this song, it feels like a song about women sexuality and how it’s portrayed in media, how when you are a certain age, you are told that you are in ripe and in your prime, and certain things have to be done at a certain age, like “yeah, come get me, I’m ripe like a fruit come get me” biology I am an organism I’m chemical and that’s all really says “I’m objectified, just an organism” and at least take my picture Kuzurete yuku maiani (before I crumble/fall apart) really says “come get me before I’m not ripe anymore, before I spoil”

Ik a lot of people interpret this song to be about over sexualization, but personally I think it's about being so desperately affection starved/feeling like you are wasting your youth by not being "loved". Especially "or at least take my picture" (at least love me for a bit) and "beginning to end" (she is at the peak of her youth, or at least she thinks she is, and she will soon become older, and in her perspective -undesirable.)
Exactly. I scrolled through the comments and all I see is oversexualisation and SA references but... it doesn't have to be about that. It can just be about the crushing weight of knowing now you're in your best shape, but no one will ever love you.
Like yes, that's exactly what I'm thinking about too. I guess everyone interpret this song as they like to
i feel this so much i just wish i knew how it feels to be loved and i feel like my time is running out
literally
honestly, this reminds me of how my mom is so frantic to still seem young, and how she thinks that she’s so ugly even though she is wonderful the way she is. i’ve watched her in this almost panicked state all my life, and it’s beginning to rub off on me. it’s obvious that she feels so pressured to stay sexy and whatnot, and it honestly kind of breaks my heart.
i’m afraid of aging, i’m afraid of losing my youth. i’m afraid of losing the little bit of beauty that i have, if any. n’ i’m afraid that i’m missing out on what it’s like to b a teen.
im late to this but i relate so much. my mom will always talk about her younger self as if that version was somehow an entirely different person to her current self. she views herself now as ugly and old even though i, and many people believe she is still gorgeous. and honestly i feel for her but at the same time she has made me so scared of aging and has even made me insecure with my current features. i wish they realized talking down on themselves, at whatever age they are, can have a negative affect on their children. if they don’t even like themselves, how are we supposed to be comfortable with ourselves either?
This hit so hard. My mom is always buying products that she think will make her look younger (they probably won't), and I just want her to truly recognize her beauty as it is. Society in general, has this strange obsession with the younger generations- I've heard someone say, "it's if your life ends when you get to 40".
My mom is the same. She’s depressed now because she turned 40, she’s always crying, sleeping, suffering, hating her body and wrinkles, crying about how she’s not young anymore and how men won’t ever love her (it’s true, men are cruel and superficial).
I’m 23, almost 24, I’m still a virgin, I’m pretty but waiting my youth because I’m afraid of men using me
Can yo mom speak this 1:21???
Teenage years isn't one's prime.
this song just sums up the whole woman experience to be honest
Women. Let’s not call women females dude
i agree with you, but for this song i think female fits, because not everyone born a female identifies as a woman but they were still born a female and understand the struggles and oppression that all females have faced
is the bus running and i mean like the biological sex you were born male / female, like genitals/biological stuff
@@niori9991 yeah i guess i also mean afab ppl because they’re usually burdened with standards from a very young age and that’s not really only exclusive to people who identify as a woman
I feel like it sums up the whole woc experience ☹️
MITSKI TE AMO
yo😊
I interpret this song as a cry of despair at realising you're at your "peak beauty" and yearning to be loved/noticed before it's too late. Craving for validation. It's like reaching the top of a cliff and realising that there's nowhere else to go from the highest point - it's just a free fall, which I interpret as the process of getting older.
There's nothing wrong with getting older, but being a woman in this century I totally understand this perspective, having passed my mid-20s I've found myself having the same thoughts that the lyrics describe.
This just hits harder when you are wasting your youth in covid times
YES
This hurt lol
No please. Its more than that.
@@ney_1534 I mean even if a song has a meaning the point of songs is that people can interpret in many different ways and see their own experience in a song even if that's not the original meaning. As long as the actual meaning isn't ignored, nothing wrong with interpreting it in your own way
u completely missed the point of this song lmaoooooo
This hits different when your a WOC you are always between being hypersexualized, fetishized or ostracized and unwanted

I told my music teacher to listen to this specific Mitski song this weekend, I am determined to turn him into a Mitski Stan by the end of the year

Youre amazing for this and so is he
i hope you come back and update this after some time
jjLKFJHEHQGEVHEWIPJHPEJVE HELL YEAH
You are an amazing human or, like, lemon (?).
This song makes me sad because its how i feel everyday. I feel that my life, my youth is slipping away and im wasting it and im not having fun and going out like all the other young people
felt
I'm in my 20's and this song sums up this part of my life. "I'm beautiful i know cause it's the season but what am I to do with all this beauty?" "I'm ripe about to fall, capture me or at least take my picture" this is exacly how it feels know that you will never be that young again and feel anxiety thinking that you're not living life enough and you're not being praised as you think you should.
saw your shinji pfp and thought you should listen to class of 2013 bc it reminds me of asuka
possibly my favourite mitski song, its so poetic and meaningful - even a comment on society and the pressure women and teenage girls are under to 'live freely' while they can; and the instrumentals are amazing,
Agreed
Te amo Mitski
This song fr reminds me of how much I want to be wanted so much so that I've thrown myself in to harms way and let older men have their way with me shit makes me fucking cry bro
I am do sorry for what these men've done to you. you deserve so much better and I hope you find people who will show this to you❤
i feel like this song is about everyone telling women 16 to 23 that they are at their prime and should live life then and find a man and settle down before they fall and get unattractive. so i feel like this is a woman not knowing what to do with her ending prime time and getting desparate.

You’re expressing how you’re hypersexualised but dehuminized at the same time for something you can’t control or hide?
.... are we listening to the same song🤨
You have to be white to say that...
@@unhavenly right😟😟
this hits different when all you want it validation. And to be seen as beautiful not by yourself but by others. it’s hits different when you wake up at 6 in the morning to do your hair, skin, uniform, jewellery, everything. hoping to be seen beautiful in everyone’s eyes. it hits different when you have to suck in everywhere you go and live in pain and uncomfortableness every where you are because you need to look beautiful. it hits different when you’ve been sexualised your whole life to that you now need validation by those around you to be seen as beautiful.

Ooh... this song sounds so badass with her beautiful voice combined with the sinister, villain-like instrumental.
Her songs have so much depth and meaning to them and they are so skillfully produced, what did we do to deserve this queen 👑😭😭😭
this song makes me feel things
I know I’m late to this but I wanna ramble. I don’t know if this is what this song is about, but I relate to it in a “hopeless romantic” kind of way. This song perfectly reminds me of the feeling of being touch starved and longing for someone, anyone, to just come and care for me and hold me. Even if they don’t actually love me I just want to feel cared for. It’s a strong feeling of loneliness and longing that this song perfectly gets down
ILL CARE 4 YOU BBG 😍
This is exactly how this song makes me feel!
I dont know why but it souds much like a bond song to me.. and i love it!
Yessss omggg
It really does, and it's probably not intentional, but it's definitely kinda ironic. Bond movies (especially the older ones) have so much sexualization of young women, and are representative of the ultimate male fantasy, things that mitski is criticizing in the lyrics.
I agree!
@@ohutchie theyre probably just talking about the instrumental but ok
her voice range is absolutely unreal. this song is so atmospheric and genius. in 40 years time mitski will be remembered the way we remember classic rock legends, i just hope she gets more appreciation right now for the amazing work she's doing and the barriers she's breaking down. she has so much substance and meaning behind her style. we are truly in the presence of a once in a generation genius.
It's mind blowing how this was released 10 years ago. Mitski truly is an artist ahead of time
Fun fact:she wrote this song in school and got a C for it 😨
It was not actually a C, that's a myth, she never revealed her grade. The only thing she mentioned is that she didn't got the grade she wanted to
The teachers are dumb
You can still relate to this song if you’re not a woman. I think anyone with sexual trauma understands that feeling of needing to be wanted and being scared you’re undesirable.
@Sawyer McLean My clearest memory of it is from when I was 9. I think it might’ve been happening when I was around 4? Though
The song isn't about sexual trauma tho??
@@Otra_Chica_de_Internet I don’t understand what you’re asking or how that’s relevant to what I’m saying, as I was saying anyone with sexual trauma has feelings like the song is describing- not that the song is about the effects of sexual trauma.
@@Otra_Chica_de_Internet Music is all about how you interpret it. As many of the other comments explain, some feel it’s about sexual assault or the hypersexualization of children and women. There’s tons of different interpretations :)
@@Otra_Chica_de_Internet it can have multiple meanings
Man, listening to this while smoking is kinda a transcendent experience. Feeling the rush of calm and slightly lamenting beauty of it is really grounding

I have no words for how much I love every single one of mitski's songs...the pure artistry and raw emotion, her range, poetic lyricism, the genuinity of it all.
To me this song is about how a teen or young adult has never been noticed romantically before and because of society is scared that their “clock” of youth is running out of time, thus they won’t have any experiences at all and try to grasp at what they can while they can, thinking that aging will make them less desirable or loved so they must act now or they’ll never get a chance “what am I to do with all this beauty” is that they want to use their beauty while their “in my prime” or “ripe” or have someone “at least take their picture” so they won’t lose all this beauty of their youth on nothing or something futile, so they want to experience what having a romantic experience or partner is like
You are spot on, this is EXACTLY how I feel and I am 16, about to turn 17 in December.
THIS OMFG
I imagine this song as the most purest rawest emotion perceived as a simple painting, a painting of a beautiful green forest with nothing more than grass, trees, bushes, and a couple rocks laying around, in the middle, theres a women dressed in her cleanest clothes having the most emotional self destruction of her entire life, completely destroyed by whatever had shattered her life. I love it!!!
"Im liquid smooth come touch me to" Honestly makes me wanna cry bc of how I've always been tossed and thrown around nobody has ever tried to help and just want someone to actually touch me and care about how I feel

I adore Mitski’s music, and right now I’m trying to get through her entire discography :)
its such a sad and nice experience
my grandma listening to mitski rn😭
Dude you have the coolest grandma ever
W grandma
Best grandma ever
The emotion that Mitski puts in her songs is insanly good
definitely about the fact how a girl feels like her beauty and youth and womanhood needs to be used enough before she becomes undesirable to society because of age
idk this song makes me anxious about growing up and then suddenly instead of staying how i want myself to be, starting to grow old
im 14 and im scared of growing up ok i dont want people who i love to die and myself to get all wrinkled and alone, its scary
same 😔
I am 20 and do not worry about death - it will come and there is nothing you can do about it, and that's alright. There is this quote, i don't remember exactly, it goes like "Life is like a play, not judged by length but by how good the story and the actors are." You can check out Seneca's letter to Lucillius, it helped me
edit: Sry the book's name was "Moral letters to Lucilius"
@@xiwei-huang thank you, it actually kinda helped
You are fourteen so you are allowed to not want to be grown up. You dont have to worry now because it is still years away before you will be an adult.
So, I know it is easier said than done, but I recommend trying to not think about the future too much. If you focus more on the now, I think you wont really notice that you are maturing. Then, when you are older, I think you will not be as scared anymore because you have lived and cherished your youth and are ready and well-equiped for your next steps in life and you wont want to be fourteen anymore. It is the natural process of growing up.
As an adult you have agency over your own life. You can choose what to engage yourself in, who you want to meet, who you want to spend your life with. To me, death is the least scary part of life; I see it as a whole state of peace without worries. But if you take control over your life and, most importantly, try to do things you enjoy with people you enjoy, your adult life wont be made up of fear, but rather of freedom and joy.
I'm so scared of growing up literally the thought scares me
2:27 This part is my favorite, beautiful voice!
You ever wanna rip off every vestige of your womanhood and scream in the dark of a cave? Alone, truely unknown, always truthfully unloved.
But you just kinda have to sit in the world empty in every way but the way you wanna be.

That build up gives me goosebumps all over my arms and down my back... elegant, simplistic, and oddly sensual.

Capture me

fr
그녀의 목소리는 천사처럼 들린다
she is a angel
I have a particular interpretation of this song, I relate it a lot to my personal experience. I feel it’s about craving not only sex, but affection, personal connection, it’s a need to feel wanted and loved. I’ve been feeling very touch starved lately, I feel that it’s a lot about having a lot of passion and desire, particularly tied to love and tenderness. It’s about sex but not only about sex. It’s about starting to feel like a woman as a teenage girl, starting to feel how people look at you like a woman, and feeling the need to be loved as this new aspect of your personality.
her songs have such deep meanings... it's impossible not to cry
This woman is criminally slept on. People just can’t look past “Me and My Husband”
screaming my lungs out to this song
the replay button: p-please.. no more
me: MORE MORE
liquid smooth > therapy
YES
she sounds like she is going insane in all of her songs and that’s why i love her so much. like she’s at the point of breaking.
I can sleep to this ngl her voice is so soft and nice
"I'm At My Highest Peak, I'm Ripe, About To Fall Capture Me."
"How I Feel This River, Rushing Through My Veins
With Nowhere Else To Go It Circles Round,
I'm Liquid Smooth."
the angry and manic tone of the instruments paired with the meaning of the lyrics perfectly describe a feeling i thought that no one else felt now if you'll excuse me i've got to go angrily sob and wait for the day that i feel clean again
I love the way she sings
I have never loved a song more in my life. Like floating on clouds. Such beauty.
mitski is a musical and lyrical genius
This is Mitski’s best album. I mean all her albums are beautiful but this one is from the core of her heart, the production complements her voice perfectly.
i feel like this is showing how we (women) are treated as we are just a body to be toyed with. nothing more. but if that is all we are then that’s what we should talk about. almost like the only way we can have any sort of love is having a fresh body. i feel like she is saying that she is an "organism" and she is "plump" and "full of life" meaning that she is "fresh enough" so this is the only way she could gain any sort of love. her body is liquid smooth. she is an object. the writing is disgustingly beautiful. it shows how hard being a women is. not to mention how women of color are constantly fetishized. she is just an object to be used. and we cant gain anymore "love" when we are old. thats why she says things like "im ripe" and "im in my prime"
MITSKI THE GOAT
