Harry Styles tried to recreate the rotating platform performance for his 2023 Grammy performance of As It Was which was carefully rehearsed with a group of dancers. However, as the live performance began the platform rotated the wrong direction (!) leaving Harry and the dancers to try to figure out the performance on the fly. The audience, of course, had no idea there was a big technical problem. Harry was a gentleman, as usual, and didn't complain. We only learned of the near disaster because the dancers were so distraught. Harry comforted them and even asked after the well being of the technical staff. It became quite a news story eventually.th-cam.com/video/2ZjcoLB2aGA/w-d-xo.html
It was definitely written in Lock down, sometimes he was in America and other times he was in England, Harry was supposed to tour the album just as everything was cancelled 😢 but Harry always leaves the songs to your own interpretation.
Theres a lot of art inspiration in this music video, the rotating platform dance was based on a installation live artwork by Yoann Bourgeois, who also choreographed that part for Harry here. The part with the colourful artwork and they get pinned down with metal shapes, is based off a Charles and Ray Eames photograph with their design of chairs pinning the couple down as they held hands together. Also, the artwork panels were commissioned, and Harry took them home afterwards (I can't seem to find the artists name right now, if anyone remembers). It is filmed at the the Barbican Centre (outside shots), Lindley Hall (inside hall), and the disused penguin pool at London Zoo. The Barbican Centre isn't actually a hotel, its a community living space, which was made originally as an idealistic community housing idea back in 1965. It comprises of flats, a museum, a gallery, a school for music and drama now. Harry has said this is actually a very sad song, about things changing as time passes, he wrote it as a sad and somber death march at first on piano.
He did say it was a lockdown song that was originally written as a slow "death march" style song. The kid at beginning is a voicemail from his goddaughter who he said was calling him every night before bed and he missed one of her calls lol. The art/turntable choreography was amazing - I think the behind the scenes goes into it
The great thing about watching you react to older mv's without already being saturated with knowledge is that I feel like I'm watching them for the first time all over again. You've reminded me to be in awe of Harry Styles
I knew you would like this one, it's pretty clever & has a lot of layers. It feels simple at first but it has a certain depth in it, both the song & music video. I think most of his music videos (and songs) have multiple stories layered in them, none of them are actually very straight-forward. He has said in an interview that "As it was" was originally a sad tune, that it is about the time in his life when he was not in a good place, and that it feels kind of weird seeing people dance and have fun to it. I also think the lyrics are quite heavy, especially the second verse ("answer the phone/ Harry, you're no good alone/ Why are you sitting alone on the floor?/ what kind of pills are you on?"). The video also portrays his looking kind of sad & defeated at one point.. but after the bridge things turn, in the video and in the song & he seems more free, the camera is moving faster and he is doing his emancipated little dance with a huge smile on his face. So, things are not the way they were - but eventually it is not necessarily a good or a bad thing. Life just goes on, and so do we. There are parts in this song that point to his ex -qirlfriend, director Olivia Wilde, who he was dating at that time. She lives in america & has two kids, and I think he was struggling with the circumstances. A long distance relationship with a single mom is not an easy one to maintain, when you're a huge pop star.. especially if you have a huge fan base which also holds a fair amount of loonies & conspiracy theorists who are ready to jump on & tear apart every woman you ever date. TY for this reaction, keep 'em coming! Which one are you going to do next (preferably from Harry, but I take anything really)?
They didnt date though. Nohody has confirmed that Harry and Olivia ever dated. Harry throughout his entire career has set some boundaries about his personal life and has never confirmed or talked about a relationship, so it would be nice to respect that and just because there was some pap walk of him and Ol1via holding hands doesnt mean they are dating.
there’s actually a lot of inspiration from the matrix for the music video, the line “answer the phone” and “what kind of pills are you on” references that as well as the costumes signifying the red pill blue pill part of it. the pool location was actually a penguin exhibit at a zoo!
Knew you would love that transition into the penguin pool. It’s so good. I believe they were filming this with the Ukrainian director when the war broke out. I think it’s a combo of Covid lockdown depression, his tour getting cancelled, dating OW, which was probably stressful with the 2 kids and the long distance. (Doubtful anyone really believes the she and the 2 kids are Harry’s mom and sister). But then at the end he clearly finds some happiness and busts out with some bells and dancing. Because sometimes good things can rise from bad times. Can’t wait for you to watch Taylor Swift’s “Style” and “Out of the Woods” videos and realize they’re both about H. 🤯
@@Videoeditorreacts yup they are both abt him. They used ro date when they were younger. It's actually fascinating that now two of the biggest artists were a thing.
Another awesome reaction Josh! I think if I looked outside and saw Harry Styles watchin paint dry I would faint. 😂 Much love and many blessings to you.
First song I heard by Harry, I’m a late bloomer, but really delved into his career and work after that , even the 1D stuff. The guys a genius. AND IM AN OLDER WOMAN.
To me it felt like an on/off relationship with lots of rebounding and backsliding, then finally when *she* leaves he's able to find freedom and happiness from being alone. It seems like she was someone/something he couldn't let go. The mention of father related trauma though had me thinking about him losing his stepdad to cancer a few years ago.
Another great reaction and as always I also am loving the comments from followers of Harry who are great at filling in the blanks. Harry is truly one of a kind and it makes me sad that he's had so much turbulence in his relationships. I hope he never gives up because his soulmate it out there. I love this video of his 🌷
Harry shares a lot of personal details, memories and stories in his songs. But never explains anything properly. Just parts of the story. He definitely loves to confuse the listeners by adding a sentence or just a few words to an otherwise wholesome story. For instance, adding something what happened at a different time or a different person was involved. This is the way he still can keep his private matters to himself even though openly singing about them. A great example the ominous 2 lines in this song: „Leave America, two kids follow her I don't wanna talk about who's doin' it first” Yes, the first line is very likely about the Don’t worry, Darling director. But the second line is an answer to his former partner, the one who broke Harry’s heart first and left him. Interesting that most people totally blind-sided by that 2 lines, while the lyrics is full of indications that Harry is talking to somebody else, not to her. “Seems you cannot be replaced And I'm the one who will stay” The entire song is basically a dialogue his former partner and his family and friends. He is singing about all the things changed because of the pandemic and because of a very painful breakup which hit him at the same time. He went through a devastating personal loss during lockdown. By the time his third album was released, he was in a new relationship. And nothing was like it used to be. “You know it's not the same as it was As it was, as it was”
Interesting reaction vid! I have been on a binge of your episodes lol. Keeping in the Harry theme- Lights Up seems to be one of the only ones you haven’t done of his and it’s pretty fun visually
this is my personal favorite harry video along with his video for "lights up" enjoyed your reaction and input !! as someone else mentioned i also recommend billie eilish her videos are so creative to each of her songs for them!!
There's a Watermelon Sugar video and it has a bts but the video is... peculiar just lik the meaning of a song🤭 still a cool video, I loved the aesthetic of it and at the time it was shot not many people did this 70's vibe just yet, it all followed the next year onwards I believe. Could be a good watch, so highly recommended! I'm loving all your reactions so far, keep up the great work!🤩
I'm a new subscriber, I like how you review the video, I'll watch your other Harry and Taylor content. I hope you give it a chance to watch Walls or Bigger than me by Louis Tomlinson, the videos for these songs are beautiful!
We actually dont really know what this mv is abt exactly. The first time i herad the song i thought it was abt family and the pandemic. When he says leave america two kids follow her he can be talking abt his mom with him and his sister. Also there is a bts to tjis video if you want to see it
You are brilliant... It's whenever H leaves (literally and figuratively) the Love of His Life and comes back. The beginning is the glass closet that he's in that is public-facing. He aad his love (in this world) are in the closet and not public-facing. The pool is the penguin enclosure at a US zoo that is known for its homosexual penguins. Nothing to do with the pandemic. This relationship started when he was 16.
Please do Madonna’s Bedtime Story!!! Is from 1995, is one of the most expensive videos ever, it has a lot of surrealistic influence from Remedios Varo and Leonora Carrington and is permanently displayed at the MoMA 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
If you're looking for a new artist to try out who also has some really great transitions and lighting/set design, Dua Lipa's music videos are consistently great. You'd probably really appreciate "Break My Heart" and "Physical" off the top of my head.
Hello! Yes! Well... kind of- usually it is filmed in a specific way that makes it known that it's in reverse but the way they made this kind of stumped me. Since it's a shorter scene, it would be easier for Harry to sing it backwards and learn those phonics so it made it look like he was singing normally and then just reverse the footage. But, the thing that confused me was actually the people around him. If he was walking forward and then they reversed the footage, everyone else would be going the same way... So that means either 1. he was masked out and going the same way but reversed 2. all the other people around him are actually walking backwards while he's walking forward... right? I may be wrong. So in this particular case, I am not 100% sure. They did such a great job and would love to see how they actually did this!
People will have you believe that this song was written in lockdown…it wasn’t! Harry stated that this was one of the last songs written for the album, he finished writing the album July/August 2021. There are lyrics in the song that are a direct reference to his ex girlfriend Olivia Wilde (who he was still with at the time of writing this song) the lyrics ‘leave America, two kids follow her’ is a direct reference to when she and her 2 kids left America with him in early 2021 so he could film a movie in London. They subsequently lived in London together for about 9 months in 2022. Certain fans didn’t like Olivia, so decided the relationship was fake and ignore what he himself has said in regards to when this song was written as they don’t want ANY song to be about her🤦🏼♀️
He wrote this before he even met her, he has said so in interviews. I think to keep this channel away from any drama though, I advice the creator to just stay away from his personal life. The fandom will never agree on what relationships are referenced and it gets rude with arguing, Harry has never said either way as well to confirm. He said this song was a death march that he wrote very sad and somber, never said anything about a romantic relationship in it all.
@@EdibleStars369 Watch his interview with Zain Lowe….he literally states in that interview that it was one of the last songs written for the album. He was seen multiple times at a studio in LA all the way up until august 2021. He wrote it AFTER he met her. Yes the majority of the song might be about covid but he wrote it after he met her. Their are literal lyrics that reference Olivia and she even shouted them the loudest at his shows.
@Chelsey Simcock I'm going to agree to disagree, but he has never said those lyrics are about her, that's your interpretation on 2 lines of a song and what you think is going on. He's said this song is a death march, a sad song. Given that their relationship started when filming and ended exactly as the film went on to streaming, along with all her paid pap walks which happened so often, this relationship screams PR, and 2 ambigious lines he has never confirmed what they are about help some people link it to her and others to other things, when really none of us know for certain but him. I don't want to argue on this channel, he is doing a video production based reaction. I just wanted to warn him about this fandoms inconsistent interpretations of his songs based on how you believe his personal life is and how it can lead to arguments and harsh words from people, so best not to bring it up. I want to stick with Treating People With Kindness as Harry says and just acknowledge that neither of us can truly know what that is about or who, unless Harry specifically says either way, which he won't.
@Chelsey Simcock believing in a common practice of PR and Showmances doesn't equate another relationship belief. There's many fractured parts of Harry fandom with nuances and different things that each one believes in differing degrees from person to person. I am not trying to argue or start a discussion on what is not relevant to this creators reaction on the video production side of Harry's music videos. This is just to pre-warn the creator who will have no experience on the in fighting and huge pandoras box that is Harry's personal life and will, as anyone would, ask about this in these reactions. It comes as a shock and surprise to lots of creators how at odds everyone is over this and what the songs mean, that it's not worth bringing up or asking further details on. None of us know for sure, Harry doesn't tend to explain his songs or not well even if he does, so we can't tell him for certain what any of the lines mean to Harry himself as we don't actually know
I’m loving the Harry content - this particular song is possibly about Olivia Wilde, he was in a relationship with her for a while and she has two kids. If you want to seriously get into Harry’s love life, you’d need to start back to his baby days on x-factor and how One Direction came together. For more context, there’s HOURS on Larry Stylinson (Louis is proposed to be the person @ the end of the video). All of that being said, I truly enjoy the blind reactions and the things you pick up on! As much as I love and adore Harry, I honestly believe you’d become obsessed with Billie Eilish’s stuff as well - “NDA” is a good one to start! Please! 😍 I don’t think you can go wrong with many of hers, but NDA is a work of magic between special effects, lighting… you just *have* to see it to understand my 🙌🏼 over it. Then, you can follow it up with all of her “when we all fall asleep where do we go” vids, if you need a bit more of a chill Billie, “Bellyache” and “Ocean Eyes” (not the dance version) are on point, too. She has been directing all of her own videos for years - most of when she was a teenager (she’s only 21 now!). Anyway…. Had to get that out lol 😅 I could talk about this all day.
I seriously would NOT recommend searching up Harry's love life. Especially not the conspiracy theory that is Larry Stylinson. It really irks me that so many comments on Harry's videos of yours are about that rumored relationship. Sure there are some fans who believe the theory who are respectful but a good majority are ridiculously toxic. Putting a microscope on every movement of Harry (and Louis Tomlinson). Harassing their family members, women they're dating, etc. I think it's better to just enjoy the music and videos of musicians. Being curious about what or who the songs are about is fine, but some people take it way too far.
@@SubKween I am not one of “those” fans. I enjoy a good conspiracy theory and believe Larry existed at some point. If it’s true, great! If not, that’s fine too. Harry can do Harry, and the same goes for Louis. All celebrities are entitled to live a private life, however, they are famous and everything they do is scrutinized. They’ve put themselves in the public eye and celeb “gossip” has been around for decades. There are many fans that take their love too far bc they develop a massively toxic para-social relationship. But I totally agree with you. There’s some extremely non sensical Larries and they analyze absolutely everything. I am a huge fan of Billie Eilish - her music and artistry are beyond anything I’ve heard before and tbh I’m thankful to be alive with her making the music she does. Am I obsessed? No. However she’s another celeb that claims to want a private life, but chronically posts to IG. 🤷🏼♀️ Sorry for the long response; I do agree with you, but there are multiple perspectives and I just wanted to point that out. When I see a reaction video, it can be fun for the person to get more context to some of the symbolism.
@@SubKween Couldn't agree more, Harry has so many new older fans now who are really not interested in all the back stories/rumours, leave new people to enjoy the present day Harry 😊
Taylor is explaining cover narcissist abuse. And the kitchen scene he is using tactics narcissistics use in their arsenal . Gaslighting , projection , mental triangulation ( when he let go of her hand. It was an intentional power move to make her feel worthless and not valid. In a room of people she doesn’t know. It’s mental abuse 101. Then when she loses it. He spins it she’s the problem. Anyone who’s been through this with someone can validate the pain is unbearable. Narcissists usually target younger and more vulnerable people as partners They destroy there self worth and dispose of them like throwing out garbage. As soon as she’s at a breaking point. He pulls her back in Yes. It happened She won’t say who but Swifties say Jake gellenhal. That’s why she selected an actor with similar features This is an older track It took her years to recover There is a video of Jake seeing this the first time And his sister is in it. She said she did leave a red scarf at her house. He gets upset and walks out of the viewing. A Narcissistic Abuse Story - My Story - NUMB th-cam.com/video/BW9oi1585kY/w-d-xo.html

He said this song was a death march that he wrote very sad and somber, never said anything about a romantic relationship in it all.
@@EdibleStars369 Watch his interview with Zain Lowe….he literally states in that interview that it was one of the last songs written for the album. He was seen multiple times at a studio in LA all the way up until august 2021. He wrote it AFTER he met her. Yes the majority of the song might be about covid but he wrote it after he met her. Their are literal lyrics that reference Olivia and she even shouted them the loudest at his shows.
@Chelsey Simcock I'm going to agree to disagree, but he has never said those lyrics are about her, that's your interpretation on 2 lines of a song and what you think is going on. He's said this song is a death march, a sad song. Given that their relationship started when filming and ended exactly as the film went on to streaming, along with all her paid pap walks which happened so often, this relationship screams PR, and 2 ambigious lines he has never confirmed what they are about help some people link it to her and others to other things, when really none of us know for certain but him.
I don't want to argue on this channel, he is doing a video production based reaction. I just wanted to warn him about this fandoms inconsistent interpretations of his songs based on how you believe his personal life is and how it can lead to arguments and harsh words from people, so best not to bring it up. I want to stick with Treating People With Kindness as Harry says and just acknowledge that neither of us can truly know what that is about or who, unless Harry specifically says either way, which he won't.
@@EdibleStars369 you’ve proven you’re a Larry so…end of discussion🤦🏼♀️
@Chelsey Simcock believing in a common practice of PR and Showmances doesn't equate another relationship belief. There's many fractured parts of Harry fandom with nuances and different things that each one believes in differing degrees from person to person. I am not trying to argue or start a discussion on what is not relevant to this creators reaction on the video production side of Harry's music videos. This is just to pre-warn the creator who will have no experience on the in fighting and huge pandoras box that is Harry's personal life and will, as anyone would, ask about this in these reactions. It comes as a shock and surprise to lots of creators how at odds everyone is over this and what the songs mean, that it's not worth bringing up or asking further details on. None of us know for sure, Harry doesn't tend to explain his songs or not well even if he does, so we can't tell him for certain what any of the lines mean to Harry himself as we don't actually know
Have you reacted to “Delicate“ by Taylor Swift yet?
Not yet! I’m excited to dig into that one!
You’re going to have to nip the Larry problem in the bud soon. Every creator who reacts to Harry eventually does. It’s gonna get out of hand otherwise
I’m loving the Harry content - this particular song is possibly about Olivia Wilde, he was in a relationship with her for a while and she has two kids. If you want to seriously get into Harry’s love life, you’d need to start back to his baby days on x-factor and how One Direction came together. For more context, there’s HOURS on Larry Stylinson (Louis is proposed to be the person @ the end of the video). All of that being said, I truly enjoy the blind reactions and the things you pick up on!
As much as I love and adore Harry, I honestly believe you’d become obsessed with Billie Eilish’s stuff as well - “NDA” is a good one to start! Please! 😍 I don’t think you can go wrong with many of hers, but NDA is a work of magic between special effects, lighting… you just *have* to see it to understand my 🙌🏼 over it.
Then, you can follow it up with all of her “when we all fall asleep where do we go” vids, if you need a bit more of a chill Billie, “Bellyache” and “Ocean Eyes” (not the dance version) are on point, too. She has been directing all of her own videos for years - most of when she was a teenager (she’s only 21 now!).
Anyway…. Had to get that out lol 😅 I could talk about this all day.
I seriously would NOT recommend searching up Harry's love life. Especially not the conspiracy theory that is Larry Stylinson. It really irks me that so many comments on Harry's videos of yours are about that rumored relationship. Sure there are some fans who believe the theory who are respectful but a good majority are ridiculously toxic. Putting a microscope on every movement of Harry (and Louis Tomlinson). Harassing their family members, women they're dating, etc. I think it's better to just enjoy the music and videos of musicians. Being curious about what or who the songs are about is fine, but some people take it way too far.
@@SubKween I am not one of “those” fans. I enjoy a good conspiracy theory and believe Larry existed at some point. If it’s true, great! If not, that’s fine too. Harry can do Harry, and the same goes for Louis. All celebrities are entitled to live a private life, however, they are famous and everything they do is scrutinized. They’ve put themselves in the public eye and celeb “gossip” has been around for decades.
There are many fans that take their love too far bc they develop a massively toxic para-social relationship. But I totally agree with you. There’s some extremely non sensical Larries and they analyze absolutely everything. I am a huge fan of Billie Eilish - her music and artistry are beyond anything I’ve heard before and tbh I’m thankful to be alive with her making the music she does. Am I obsessed? No. However she’s another celeb that claims to want a private life, but chronically posts to IG. 🤷🏼♀️
Sorry for the long response; I do agree with you, but there are multiple perspectives and I just wanted to point that out. When I see a reaction video, it can be fun for the person to get more context to some of the symbolism.
@@SubKween Couldn't agree more, Harry has so many new older fans now who are really not interested in all the back stories/rumours, leave new people to enjoy the present day Harry 😊
yesss billie's music videos are everything!!! she's so talented
Taylor is explaining cover narcissist abuse. And the kitchen scene he is using tactics narcissistics use in their arsenal . Gaslighting , projection , mental triangulation ( when he let go of her hand. It was an intentional power move to make her feel worthless and not valid. In a room of people she doesn’t know. It’s mental abuse 101. Then when she loses it. He spins it she’s the problem. Anyone who’s been through this with someone can validate the pain is unbearable. Narcissists usually target younger and more vulnerable people as partners They destroy there self worth and dispose of them like throwing out garbage.
As soon as she’s at a breaking point. He pulls her back in
Yes. It happened
She won’t say who but Swifties say Jake gellenhal. That’s why she selected an actor with similar features
This is an older track
It took her years to recover
There is a video of Jake seeing this the first time
And his sister is in it. She said she did leave a red scarf at her house.
He gets upset and walks out of the viewing.
