the message of this video is incredible, everything is so symbolic, even the glowing ring in the last few seconds which is a metaphor for the circle of life. nothing ever truly dies. everything is rebirthed.
Ruthwik Rao In psychiatry terminology, "rebirthing" is a form of psychotherapy in which the subject supposedly "relives" the experience of being born in order to confront and overcome traumas and anxieties stemming from birth. Kind of like nature does when it heals itself to start anew. It's the same thing, no need to correct my grammar.
moonmothh Haha thanks for the info And obviously, I didn't know that. Anybody would think the same without the knowledge of psychiatry. Either way, sorry for that. Thanks again
I'm fairly sure the video was inspired by the end of the Kurosawa film, Throne of Blood which draws on Shakespeare's Macbeth. The witch talks about mans decay and rebirth, from rot to beauty.
John Doe the video producer has also done many other music videos for some amazing artists like Flying Lotus and Bonobo. Young replicant, check him out.
Interpretation: a warrior was fatally struck by arrows in a conflict that occurred before the opening. As he stumbles through the forest and finally laid down to die in hopelessness, his life force slowly lifted up and wafted towards the heavens, two forest imps came across the warrior and preserved his life force by binding it temporarily to his body with ceremonial rags. The warrior, now straddling the realm between life and death, aware but yet unconscious, was then carried by the imps towards a pre-specified location, for reasons then yet unknown to him. As the imps depart, one of them signaled with its bells (by tossing it) that another troubled soul has fallen, and the mother spirit of the forest emerges to claim the warrior's life force and puts his soul to rest in the eternal aether (here, shown as the water). In the epilogue, the warrior's life force is absorbed into the forest and the cycle of life begins anew, the warrior's body laid down as if in peaceful slumber, all signs of previous conflict completely removed.
Always felt they were shinigami wandering the battlefield and its outskirts and helping ferry souls to the afterlife, basically valkyries in the video. And the wrapping is the warrior not wanting to accept death until the moment when he can die right, like a peaceful/zen place to meet the shinigami. It's beautiful no matter how you see it.
God, this is so beatiful. I listened the song for years, and just now discovered that it has it's own video. And they're fit together so perfectly. Makes me make something beatiful as well..
Full lyrics: kick up my shit, you wanna Rustle these leaves Get me so red, you wanna Ruffle these feathers You are my bloodflow Baby lovely bloodflow Baby lovely bloodflow Rustle these leaves Baby lovely bloodflow Ruffle these feathers Kick up my shit, you wanna Rustle these leaves Get me so red, you wanna Ruffle these feathers You are my bloodflow Baby lovely bloodflow Baby lovely bloodflow
this is ridiculously beautiful, gave me chills and tears, as I know this experience. thank you for beautiful song and video paired exquisitely, from my soul, thank you x
Absolutely beautiful, I can't really express how incredible I think this video is. Just wonderfully imaginative and captivating, the beauty of the unknown, direction is top notch.
@Jeuce Interesting take! I interpreted it as the two entities were moving him to a place in the forest where his 'lifeforce' or whatever was needed more. I saw the 3rd entity as a mother nature sort of character who sucks his lifeforce out to give it back to the forest/life still growing around him [as the plants emit the lifeforce after]. For me, the first two entities were lesser spirits/helpers to the third. The circle shown at the end also makes me think it's a 'circle of life' theme.
This song breaks my heart so much The girl I was supposed to get married to would sing this with me all the time This was our song I miss happiness like that
WOW. Just discovered Baths today. So far, this and Animals are just pure bliss for my ears. It is so rare to find an artist that really takes me like his work has. Amazing.
This was my and one of best friends favorite songs. We worked around trying to remix this song, just messing around, yang? Paired it with all kinds of songs, and had a few you could call a "success". But it still wasn't right. Unfortunately, he passed before we could get it right. But I still love baths and especially this song. Reminds me of youthful hope and dreams
Whatever you say. In my opinion, this is an artistic masterpiece, both visually and aurally. Baths is a fantastic musician and Alex Takacs really know what he's doing with video production.
watching this stoned is a must. I am so high right now and after watching that I feel higher. The whole concept of the song and the video are exquisite. I am so pleased that this exists.
one of the greatest songs of all time. seriously. the vocals took a few playthroughs to really appreciate, but in hindsight.....amazing, brilliant, epic.
i love listening to this song when i'm blazed and i love listening to this song when i'm sober. but the only true way to experience this song is to listen to it while you have your soul plucked gently from your lips by white-clad spirits as you lay in a forest, terrified but blissfuly moving from this world on to a better one. now everyone shut the fuck up and enjoy this beautiful piece of art.
Baby - fuck Kick up my shit, you wanna Rustle these leaves Get me so red, you wanna Ruffle these feathers You are my bloodflow Baby lovely bloodflow Baby lovely bloodflow Rustle these leaves Baby lovely bloodflow Ruffle these feathers
I'm over here thinking yay he's about to be revived by the forest weirdos, then come to find out they taking his soul and on top of all that left him there. More savage than the people who shot him with arrows smh.
[Spec.Tre] In a way they did revive him. Just as many different things, as evidenced by his soul seen rising out of numerous plants and such. I feel like perhaps if anything maybe they stopped him from passing on. His soul was definitely going SOMEWHERE. The two littler ones it's kind of put some corks in him and brought him to the alpha female. Also only the two little ones wear bells on their feet. Not sure why, but it's a cool detail.
apparently he was very ill for one of his albums i forgot the name of it but its the one with dark dude on the front.from what heard he was bed ridden for quite some time
Wow..every once in a while theres that song and video combo that is just so amazing and shuts out the rest from my memory and this is and has been that combo for me for sometime now. COODOSE to Alex Takacs, Joe Nankin, and Baths :) for a whole nother feeling of some shit i didnt know
I found this music video this weekend, and I called it a masterpiece. 6/8 of the people I've shown it to basically said "that's way too weird to be good." Weird? More like absolutely desirable, I would love to die like that...
this song got me through a hard time in my life. almost 9 years later I'm still here and almost better.
9 years what time was that
what was hard
@@NewsChannel-y4g TIME
Same❤️ but 4 years ago for me.
I randomly found this song while living in Egypt. Cathartic nostalgia.
im still here, and this is just as it was the 1st time. Beautiful
Cant believe this is 10 years old now, fuuuuccccckkkkk
the message of this video is incredible, everything is so symbolic, even the glowing ring in the last few seconds which is a metaphor for the circle of life. nothing ever truly dies. everything is rebirthed.
Reborn you mean
But yeah...
Great video

I’ve always loved this music video. The design of those two spirits/creatures is really fantastic!
Baths. I love you. Thank you for this. Every time I watch this you heal apart of my soul. Words can't describe how grateful I am
Man baths percussion/drums are so dope
Most of them are sound that he recorded, chairs creaking and whatnot
The hi hat is done with scissors
listen to Eskmo early stuff @star gazer
@@MartinYankov thanks for reminding me about Eskmo!
Can't believe I was lucky to see Baths live and meet him after the show. Coolest dude man signed my brother's CD and my hat.
I keep on listening to this over and over, I can't get tired of it
Ya still listening to it?
Having a spiritual experience from watching/hearing this. Well done.

I have always thought something similar, but that the "mother spirit" is just a physical representation of death.
Always felt they were shinigami wandering the battlefield and its outskirts and helping ferry souls to the afterlife, basically valkyries in the video. And the wrapping is the warrior not wanting to accept death until the moment when he can die right, like a peaceful/zen place to meet the shinigami.
It's beautiful no matter how you see it.
@@lbigotti11 no the mother spirit is responsible for reproduction and growth of all the beautiful plants
death and rebirth
No interpretation was needed, we all saw the video lol
0:06 "B-b-babyy-- b-- ...Fuck."
Then the beat drops.
LMAO
it's so satisfying
So glad someone else hears that
@@αστέρια4 I love music with weird and almost unexplainable elements like this
You have no idea how long it took me to find this song again 🙏❤️🎉
Definitely a song for a life time I listen to it at least once a day when im waking up
Yeah... I was in similar process currently ;)
Haha had to message and old friend to find out
Looking through my old liked videos on youtube brought me here lol
3 years later and i still cant get enough of this song and video combo. Beautiful
God, this is so beatiful. I listened the song for years, and just now discovered that it has it's own video. And they're fit together so perfectly. Makes me make something beatiful as well..
its been 3 years now listening to it,but that piano gets me everytime
This is still my joint right here 2022
LOVE....both the video and the song...this is an amazing masterpiece! First saw/heard this 5 years ago and it never loses its magic....
Full lyrics:
kick up my shit, you wanna
Rustle these leaves
Get me so red, you wanna
Ruffle these feathers
You are my bloodflow
Baby lovely bloodflow
Baby lovely bloodflow
Rustle these leaves
Baby lovely bloodflow
Ruffle these feathers
Kick up my shit, you wanna
Rustle these leaves
Get me so red, you wanna

you have been shot in the back by archers in a samurai battle and hallucinated in the forest nearby?

This video is amazing, what youll find the more you journey into the unkown is a mind blowing mystery.
God I've come back to this song after like 2 years still fuckin gr8
+Austin Kidwell I felt as if I was the only person going back to this song!
This song breaks my heart so much
The girl I was supposed to get married to would sing this with me all the time
This was our song
I miss happiness like that
This video actually makes me have absolutely no fear of dying.
Just an absolute masterpiece I put it up there with FKA twigs’ cellophane as one of the best of all time
The best music/band I've found in ages, why have they never even crossed my radar before, this tune and video is my fave at the mo.......
I listened to this a million times after my ex broke my heart. In fact, I still found all the pieces to it
+Ed Ness keep your head up brother, music is the healer, no matter who you are :)
+Erompomsims thanks, I appreciate that!
+Ed Ness Bless. Brings a tear to my eye when I'm feeling the feels.
+Rod Reguez how are ur feels feeling rn
Not too bad thanks for asking
the death of an idea is the birth of creativity in a world where "everything has been done".
2:36 that part with the piano❤
Hits hard✨
First heard this song when I was utterly lost in life in 2012, revisiting this is very nostalgic
The video and the song are just amazing.
Notre belle époque ou a l'inverse du passe, ou l'on CONSTRUISAIT de la musique, nous la DÉCONSTRUISONS. C'est génial, superbe artiste!
b b baaaayybyy laaaaooovly blaaaaaf flaaaahuuuuuu
Oh my God, the sounds, the video....wow...! Wow wow wow!
Still one of my favorite music videos of all time.
how could i have found this band through a graphic novel and love them so much
Which graphic novel?
@@Tony_Bamanabonioh omg sorry so late! but Bloom by Kevin Panetta the song was originally Miasma Sky
Great for those moments at night when everyone else is asleep and you're still thinking.
THIS IS A MASTERPIECE.
WOW. Just discovered Baths today. So far, this and Animals are just pure bliss for my ears. It is so rare to find an artist that really takes me like his work has. Amazing.
id love to have the little white outfits except in black and pink to fit my color.
i love them
Loving the use of guitar natural harmonics on this. At least that's what it sounds like to me. I've spent all day trying to figure out the tabs
This was my and one of best friends favorite songs. We worked around trying to remix this song, just messing around, yang? Paired it with all kinds of songs, and had a few you could call a "success".

Jeez that must have sucked walking through the forest with wet socks on dying.
Dang didn't even think about that
And just for a music video
You dont feel it anymore, when you wear them long enough
This is love.
this song is like a rainfall during a hot summer day
"Kick up my shit you wanna, rustle these leaves?
You make so red you wanna, ruffle these feathers?"
Whatever you say.
In my opinion, this is an artistic masterpiece, both visually and aurally. Baths is a fantastic musician and Alex Takacs really know what he's doing with video production.
watching this stoned is a must.
I am so high right now and after watching that I feel higher.
The whole concept of the song and the video are exquisite. I am so pleased that this exists.
proud of you and your great advice
I am so pleased that you exist.
First time I saw this I was stoned to the bone back in the day lol, I feel old now that this song is like 8 years old lol
a dying samurai gets whisked away by death and her angels, and soon returns to the Earth. amazing video
Reminded me more of princess monoke
indeed
Awesome!
Those costumes though ~ :0
GreekGecko if you notice the bells on the ankles then the main spirit they summon has bells near her ears, it’s super intricate and deep.
Probably the best music video I have ever seen.
GIT ME SOME MARI JU WANA
What an underrated masterpiece. Dear everyone, spread this.
Love Baths :)
Hey I know you, I like your art.. :) :D

Still a vibe thank you for reminding me
How many times i was here ???
420
One of my favourite songs ever
00:06 the utterance made when a mother gives birth to a newborn and immediately drops the baby on the ground by accident.
lol
Intro blew me away, so strong yet so minimalistic
Baby - fuck
Kick up my shit, you wanna
Rustle these leaves
Get me so red, you wanna
Ruffle these feathers
You are my bloodflow
Baby lovely bloodflow
Baby lovely bloodflow
Rustle these leaves
Baby lovely bloodflow
Ruffle these feathers
I don't think I've ever seen a better match between music video and song; both are outstanding!
I'm over here thinking yay he's about to be revived by the forest weirdos, then come to find out they taking his soul and on top of all that left him there. More savage than the people who shot him with arrows smh.
Who's to say they aren't the same?
+Parker Burnette They didn't have bows or arrows
+Grandpa Tre They are nature.
[Spec.Tre] In a way they did revive him. Just as many different things, as evidenced by his soul seen rising out of numerous plants and such. I feel like perhaps if anything maybe they stopped him from passing on. His soul was definitely going SOMEWHERE. The two littler ones it's kind of put some corks in him and brought him to the alpha female. Also only the two little ones wear bells on their feet. Not sure why, but it's a cool detail.
The Soul had to be cleansed or renewed for the next life.
Lovely song, with the most meaningful and beautiful video ever
i can feel my ghostflow
MTN OASIS MUSIC FEST JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER AN BETTER
holy shit, it really is a good song
almost ten years listening to this music, never enough....
i searched on vimeo one by one to find this video
Another I suggest is hooray for earth - true loves ❤ it's such a good song and testiment to the sound of the time.
I can never watch this video and hear this song for the first time again. and its so sad. this was beautiful. truly
All energy is borrowed & one day we have to give it back?
nah we are made of energy man
Yes. technically energy is just matter in a different form (E=mc^2). You could say that our bodies just change forms when we die.
im sure i think i have at least a hundred plays for this one song alone.i love this video
this song annoyed the shit out of me the first time I heard it. but now, I just can't get enough of it.
One of the best music videos ever.
Probably getting a large back piece tattoo based off of this video.
Update us when you get it!
DID YOU DO IT!?
Im on the edge of my seat, here. Did you get it???
I HAVE TO KNOW!!
by far the most beautiful music video i have ever seen.
" Ba ba baby, fuck" ( commence song )
Gorgeous cinematography!
You want to dismiss all your pain immediately.
Listening to this makes me melancholic, almost depressed. But it still so beautiful to listen to
Binkbeats did a great cover of this! He brought me here.
Wow I've listened to loads of Baths stuff but this is new to me. Going to listen to this a lot. Great video as well!
Baths music is kind of uneven, this is one of his best songs. I wish more were like it.
apparently he was very ill for one of his albums i forgot the name of it but its the one with dark dude on the front.from what heard he was bed ridden for quite some time
Horus Ra obsidian, it's a lot darker for his style but great itself

That voice man
Tristan Colby he's so technically shit but so damn good for his music. love his voice.
one of the best clips I know
matches the music perfectly
luv it!
for me it's the opposite. every time i listen to this is like the first time.
this video should win every award.

after all these years still think the video is a masterpiece
