@@bidrodmistaka this. *THIS* is why space travel isn't a commercial thing. Because no matter how hideous and grotesque you make the monster, someone's going to crawl out from the sewers to throw themselves at it.
I’m an introvert with high-functioning autism, so honestly I can relate to the lyrics symbolizing the desire to be alone. Sometimes the world is too much for me, and I need to stop and breathe for a few minutes to relieve the pressure.
I think the video is about self sabotage, he destroys himself by accepting the aliens hand(possibly a metaphor for anxiety/depression) and sabotaged himself by killing(pushing away) everyone he cares about. The alien plague thing could be a metaphor for letting your emotions consume you or being consumed in self doubt.
ミッフィーチェーンWolfeChan not really social anxiety and self sabotage are different self sabotage can be a symptom of social anxiety but they’re not necessarily always interlinked
pikarino idk but I think killer in the mirror is about body issues and hating yourself to an extent where you do things to change your appearance so drastically that in a way your killing your actual self.mi think it fits in with its video as well because it’s like there in a cult, so there trapped (stuck thinking you ugly) when there then being drowned by everyone it could represent them finally being themselves and people punishing them for it I.e bulling them
"I don't need you to understand." These lyrics are so incredibly deep. I think it's a metaphor for anxiety and social anxiety. We don't need you to understand us, we just need you to accept us.
KidsVSGaming they had vip packages where you got a meetup, signed poster, killer in the mirror acoustic set, and there was a tiny listening party where we all got to listen to the Lonely Dance demo. So I’m just referring to the listening party part
Theory: I think each song is going to represent some sort of pain (or problem) that a person experiences. Killer in the Mirror was about revenge on people or in some way revenge on bullying. Lonely dance was about isolation and also in a way shutting people out, which might have to do with a disorder or even depression.
@@diamondcrusher3373 and when Cody says his only fan, he may be talking about how social anxiety makes some people think there the only people who care about them.
Jessica Ann I also think for you forever kinda represents like control issues or commitment issues and dancing with the devil is about depression Linley dance is about social anxiety and killer in the mirror is about bullying and rising above it
I actually thought of something with killer in the mirror and lonely dance. They represent things that could be called mental illnesses, killer in the mirror represents psychopathy as there seems to be no remorse while lonely dance represents social anxiety.
Okay so since this song is about being introverted, it might be that like The monster is anxiety and his introverted personality and like things are going well and then all of a sudden it takes control of him and it ends up slowly killing off his friendships?? I don’t know it’s just a theory
@@sunset_bean9164 Huh in what i remember both the mv AND among us released in same year and NO it does not look like its based on among us this Mv is BASED on their idea about "Where can someone be alone/feel alone other than space?"(if need source go find their Behind the scene.) so its just coincidencely have some similarities at somepoint.

Me to friend *screaming*- SET IT OFF NEW SONG Friend- oh cool Me *still screaming*- I'm already in love Friend- lmao Me- I'm gonna start crying This song reminds me so much of my introversion and how I push people away from me in problems. In a kind of metaphorical sense I do my lonely dance... Thank you, to all the members of Set It Off. I love your music and don't plan on stopping anytime soon.
Me and my brother have been blessed. Killer in the Mirror came out in my brothers birthday month and Lonely Dance came out in November. My birthday month.
Well, I guess I have to do another understanding in this like I did in Killer in The Mirror. Let's be real. Almost everyone of us wants to be alone, isolated, and generally in peace; away from human interaction. Now look at the theme of the video. Astronauts. Obviously that means they're in space. But what happens in space? Loneliness. And when you're in space, there's no gravity. In order for you to move, you need to make swim-like movements; similar to dancing. That's the title of the song: *Lonely Dance.* A song about how someone feels having to interact with people and being alone in their own space. Now onto the MV. The area the band is in resembles the place an individual would stay (his/her room, for short). The person's condition would be the quartet themselves. They didn't bother being in that place because it's their "safe zone". Even if they were already getting messages that it isn't safe in the outer space at the moment, they ignored it. But as time went on, the quartet starts to experience weird things - much similar to when someone hasn't been outside of their room; completely out of arms reach and no connection whatsoever. One bleeds blue blood, one cries blue blood, and such. This is where the panic sets in. The quartet then tries to leave the area. They tried calling for help, they tried contacting Earth for a distress signal, but they can't as they were trapped by an extraterrestrial being, which was Cody. Comparing this to the IRL scenario, the individual then realizes that they have been trapped within their own comforts and wants to escape. But unfortunately, as they reach for the door to open it, the door didn't budge. It was too late. They were engulfed by their own infected state. The band then suffers the rest of the aftermath. As their lifeless, infected bodies dance with zero gravity amidst the loneliness of space, maybe they should've went back to Earth when they had the chance.
So... if I’m reading this right, this song is about a person’s introversion killing their opportunity to interact with other people? Seems kind of strange given that the song is extremely upbeat about the “Lonely Dance” which suggests that some people simply have a better time in seclusion than with others.
Yep, that's it. The upbeat theme of the song "fools" the people into thinking that it isn't somehow "serious" and it's quite similar to Something New or Uncontainable in which both songs are upbeat and happy in nature.
The lyrics hit anyone else real hard? I'm prone to sensory overloads and literally some time I get so anxious the world gets too loud for me to handle. Some days I'm up and some days I'm down and some days the world is way too loud.
Usually when I listen to a bands new music I usually am a little disappointed but you guys are an exception...your music just gets better and better 😭😍♥️
OMG IKR IM THE SAME!!! Actually i just happened to stumble into SIO through nightcore and when i listened to the original and the new songs it was the first time i became a fan of an actual band and not just some of the band’s songs
Y’know I love how back when this song came out everyone was talking about what the song actually meant and how it connected to the music video and how it’s all a metaphor for introversion and all and now everyone is saying that this is among us in a nutshell
*to the theme of ghostbusters* When there’s something strange... in the neighbourhood... who you gonna call? *music cuts off* Not Set It Off. Cody will kill them all.
Alright, well I have watched this on repeat since I got on the train to ride home from college for the holiday break and two people have asked me what I was watching. Set It Off now has two new fans cuz they were curious peeps.
I mean there are a lot of parallels with the original 1979 Alien movie, you might wanna watch that since it's relatively close. Plus it's like one of the best films of all time
I’ve seen a couple comments about the theory behind this vid and I wanted to pitch in so here goes nothing. Basically he gets overwhelmed by everyone in the space ship with him so he makes a deal that the monster will make them go away. What he does or doesn’t realize (this parts up to you ig) is that the monster means permanently. And with each kill he gets taken over more and more by the monster. He doesn’t realize he’s the one killing them at first. (Hence the flashback later in the vid) and is then taken over by the monster to continue the cycle. Lol that may be 100% wrong but hey thought I’d share!
I actually kind of had the opposite idea. I was thinking that Cody made a deal with the monster - if he killed off everyone else, he'd be spared, but once he's infected, he's a lot more malicious and has a closer mindset to the actual alien. But I think your theory is really good. It really makes you think a bit.
This song made me realize how much of an introvert I am cause I literally relate to all of this( minus agreeing to shake hands with an alien that just tried to kill me and my friends)

So, I was really into Set It Off a couple years ago, not only was I really into them, I was completely obsessed, they were my favorite band and artist at the time. Shit happened and I "drifted away" from them, I stopped keeping up with them and listening to their music. I came back today to see what they were doing, and what kind of new music these lovely 4 boys had produced. And let's just say... All of the lovely nostalgia is comin back, consider myself a fan again~♡
Thank you, for everything. You guys have no idea how much your music has helped me for so long. I am so proud of you guys and how far you've come. Continue reaching for the stars guys, I believe in you.
This song has honestly made up for my otherwise sort of crappy day and what’s going on right now in my life. It just makes me feel a little less alone 💙

They tried calling for help, they tried contacting Earth for a distress signal, but they can't as they were trapped by an extraterrestrial being, which was Cody. Comparing this to the IRL scenario, the individual then realizes that they have been trapped within their own comforts and wants to escape. But unfortunately, as they reach for the door to open it, the door didn't budge. It was too late. They were engulfed by their own infected state.
The band then suffers the rest of the aftermath. As their lifeless, infected bodies dance with zero gravity amidst the loneliness of space, maybe they should've went back to Earth when they had the chance.
André Kudos to you!
A FUCKIN MASTERPIECE IS WHAT THIS IS!!!!!
So... if I’m reading this right, this song is about a person’s introversion killing their opportunity to interact with other people? Seems kind of strange given that the song is extremely upbeat about the “Lonely Dance” which suggests that some people simply have a better time in seclusion than with others.
Yep, that's it. The upbeat theme of the song "fools" the people into thinking that it isn't somehow "serious" and it's quite similar to Something New or Uncontainable in which both songs are upbeat and happy in nature.
Wow.
I can realte to allmost every line of this song...
Agreed
Same
Same tho
Same
Same
I did not expect this song
I can imagine this being sang in a stadium of people
Same
Ironic
yup
Set It Off for Super Bowl confirmed.
New TOUR...
Why doesn’t it surprise me that Cody killed everyone
IzzDAWG 56 why would it?
You know... there still is a killer in the mirror..
maybe because he looks like a psychotic serial killer every other time
The lyrics hit anyone else real hard? I'm prone to sensory overloads and literally some time I get so anxious the world gets too loud for me to handle. Some days I'm up and some days I'm down and some days the world is way too loud.
(intro)
cody: one step forward
*stays still*
cody again: one step backwards *casually steps forward*
me: ...
I never noticed. Woah! That's cool!
XD
i-
This is how directions work, kids.
I think it was a metaphor for going back to bad habits, depression, anxiety and not moving on
Usually when I listen to a bands new music I usually am a little disappointed but you guys are an exception...your music just gets better and better 😭😍♥️
Yea right. And Cody's voice is developing so well from song to song!!
OMG IKR IM THE SAME!!! Actually i just happened to stumble into SIO through nightcore and when i listened to the original and the new songs it was the first time i became a fan of an actual band and not just some of the band’s songs
I love how he was laughing seeing the monster and was like you cool looking lol
The scene highkey reminds me of guardians of the galaxy and I love it
Paw I got more of a Dead Space vibe
@@vwhatever8151 That, and that movie "Life", where that space worm killed everyone on board.
IKR
the fact that zach takes the alcohol with him while their ship is being attacked gives me life
Ellie Gregory
Oof I just realized this
Is Zach the blonde one?
עינב לוי אנה
No. That’s Maxx. Zach is a guitarist. He’s the one whodies first.
Maybe that's why he died first
Thats what we call a "holdin my beer, watch this" moment
Y’know I love how back when this song came out everyone was talking about what the song actually meant and how it connected to the music video and how it’s all a metaphor for introversion and all and now everyone is saying that this is among us in a nutshell
*to the theme of ghostbusters*
When there’s something strange... in the neighbourhood... who you gonna call?
*music cuts off*
Not Set It Off. Cody will kill them all.
That's awesome
@@TheLastJack welcome
Song Mode fury
Lol
Lol
When they kinda "died" one by one it reminded me of partners in crime
Ender Wolf omg fr!!!!!!!!
Omg yaasss!!!!!!!
Yeah.
yes
Ender Wolf it... well, reminded me of stranger things with the monster. But yes, same
This song was incredible 🤩
I DIDN'T HAVE ANY IDEA I NEEDED THIS
Alright, well I have watched this on repeat since I got on the train to ride home from college for the holiday break and two people have asked me what I was watching. Set It Off now has two new fans cuz they were curious peeps.
Yay :D
Thank you for helping set it off gain fans😁
Me and the boys tryina find the imposter be like
The only band that can kill off the members faster than Panic! At The Disco
omg hahahahaha i'm dead😂
Jesus Christ that hurt my well being
you savage little fry
BIG FACTS!!!
dId YoU rEaLlY jUsT!?!?
w o w i dont even know if i should be mad or just laugh quietly in depression
AHHHHH
I'm in math class crying im so happy
This is a bopppp
I'm at work crying over this masterpiece 😭
I'm at home for Thanksgiving Break jumping around my room
Same with me lol
I love the metaphor of the video, he is the one destroying his friends and himself...Damn I wan't more
I'm a teacher in Australia and I literally woke up at 3am in for this!! 😍 So worth it!!! ❤❤❤
Now to have this on repeat for the next couple of weeks .
True that
Anyone else notice that after every time Cody sings “All I need is me myself and I” you can hear “Whatcha need?” in the background?
I did the first time I herd it
All my fav bands are releasing new music im glad set it off is on the list
Ever since hearing the demo at VIP in Berkeley I’ve been SUPER hyped to hear this song again and holy shit I am not disappointed
Same!!
Same. I can actually hear the difference in the mix of the song.
Cody: dIes
also Cody: ILL SLEEP WHEN I AM DEAD!
Me: so.. he was being serious.
I /need/ the plot of this music video as a movie, with the band playing the main roles in the movie as well
I mean there are a lot of parallels with the original 1979 Alien movie, you might wanna watch that since it's relatively close. Plus it's like one of the best films of all time
after watching this for the first time i thought of the exact same thing and i bet it would make a good action movie
I’ve seen a couple comments about the theory behind this vid and I wanted to pitch in so here goes nothing.
Basically he gets overwhelmed by everyone in the space ship with him so he makes a deal that the monster will make them go away. What he does or doesn’t realize (this parts up to you ig) is that the monster means permanently. And with each kill he gets taken over more and more by the monster. He doesn’t realize he’s the one killing them at first. (Hence the flashback later in the vid) and is then taken over by the monster to continue the cycle.
Lol that may be 100% wrong but hey thought I’d share!
That was super good!!!!!!!
I actually kind of had the opposite idea. I was thinking that Cody made a deal with the monster - if he killed off everyone else, he'd be spared, but once he's infected, he's a lot more malicious and has a closer mindset to the actual alien. But I think your theory is really good. It really makes you think a bit.
This song made me realize how much of an introvert I am cause I literally relate to all of this( minus agreeing to shake hands with an alien that just tried to kill me and my friends)
*1 second in*
Me: I love it!
The new album is midnight!! I'm gonna buy it as soon as it comes out!!!!!
Im too poor, Ill just get it on spotify lmao
Same can't wait

OMG IM GONNA CRY I LOVE SET IT OFF SO MUCH AND IVE BEEN DYING TO LISTEN TO NEW MUSIC
G Rts YES ITS AMAZING
One step forward, one step backwards
One step forward, one step backwards
Some days I'm up, some days I'm down
Some days the world is way too loud
Some days my bed won't let me out
But I'm okay with missin'...
Out on the social anxiety
Out on the phony friends I don't need
So I just turn off my phone and turn on TV
Cause solo's the only way I can breathe
So I just, so I just...
Do my little lonely dance
Performing for my only fan
Cause it's my kind of party
My room is where my heart is
I do my little lonely dance
I don't need you to understand
And there's no way I'm stoppin'
It's like nobody's watching
As I do my little lonely dance
One step forward, one step backwards
One step forward, one step backwards
These days I'm good, these days I'm fine
These days I'd rather pay no mind
Silence is in town, keep her around
And you'll be glad you're missing…
Out on the social anxiety
Out on the phony friends I don't need
So I just turn off my phone and turn on TV
Cause solo's the only way I can breathe
So I just, so I just...
Do my little lonely dance
Performing for my only fan
Cause it's my kind of party
My room is where my heart is
I do my little lonely dance
I don't need you to understand
And there's no way I'm stoppin'
It's like nobody's watching
As I do my little lonely dance
One step forward, one step backwards
One step forward, one step backwards
All I need is me, myself, and I
(One step forward, one step backwards)
All I need is me, myself, and I
(One step forward, one step backwards)
All I need is peace and quiet
Shhh... that's better
Some days I'm up, some days I'm down
Some days the world is way too loud
Some days my brain's locking me out so I just…
Do my little lonely dance
Performing for my only fan
Cause it's my kind of party
My room is where my heart is
I do my little lonely dance
I don't need you to understand
And there's no way I'm stoppin'
It's like nobody's watching
As I do my little lonely dance
I do my little lonely dance
I do my little lonely dance
Like nobody's watching
I do my little lonely dance
(One step forward, one step backwards)
I do my little lonely dance
(One step forward, one step backwards)
I do my little lonely dance
Like nobody's watching
I do my little lonely dance
Here I am, doing my little lonely dance on Christmas 🎄, what a Bleak December
Upside down is literally so different from Midnight and I'm all for it. 💙🖤
Wait a minute, "Set it Off" predicted"Among us"?
No. Among Us is an old game. This song is kinda newer.
Wasnt among us made in 2018?
@@kalebbaldwin6631 among us came out in June of 2018 while this music video was released in November of 2018 among us is younger than this song
But does not mean Its related to among us xD
All of you Repliers have been r/wooooshed

So, I was really into Set It Off a couple years ago, not only was I really into them, I was completely obsessed, they were my favorite band and artist at the time. Shit happened and I "drifted away" from them, I stopped keeping up with them and listening to their music. I came back today to see what they were doing, and what kind of new music these lovely 4 boys had produced. And let's just say... All of the lovely nostalgia is comin back, consider myself a fan again~♡
This is what happened to me as well. I then realized I was still subscribed and I gotta say, they really did a good job here.
This is a great movie concept!
Thank you, for everything. You guys have no idea how much your music has helped me for so long. I am so proud of you guys and how far you've come. Continue reaching for the stars guys, I believe in you.
Thank you for this. It speaks volumes to me. And many introverts
This song has honestly made up for my otherwise sort of crappy day and what’s going on right now in my life. It just makes me feel a little less alone 💙
Oh my God, I can't stop listening to this song ... just perfect ❤❤🔊
I love this song because I'm an introvert, and this band is fire!!! go set it off!!!!!🤗
I feel like Cody made a deal with space devil. Nice👌
BAD CODY THAT WAS MEAN KILLING YOUR BAND LIKE THAT. Making me cry like that was mean.
he cried himself. it wasn't him that kiled the others. it wat the 'creatur'. His inner monster. his dark side.
Speak for yourself ^
@@justme-fu6ci that's some fine irony you got there anti.
His psychotic smile gives me life lmao
Another one of those songs that I feel I've heard somewhere before but I didn't know it was from Set it Off. Rapidly becoming a big fan.
Is it bad I knew immediately Cody was the traitor?
No the bad stuff always seems to happen to Cody
Clint Barton it really does
@@mcnuggetsauce6374 it is always the cute and innocent ones that goes crazy. First Patrick Stump in YBC and now Cody Carson in Lonely Dance.
Clint Barton true
@@mcnuggetsauce6374 but for me at least they are still cute even when they're crazy.
