watched this the first time and thought nothing of the intro then but upon rewatching i noticed the lines in the corners of his mouth and how their head droops to the side when he touches them. everything has already happened and he's clumsily kissing a corpse. good god
rather than happiness from pain, i would say it represents getting pain from happiness, which is what this whole video intends to show. this character has come to a point where happiness is something that needs to be artificially induced, rather than coming naturally. so now their life is a scavenge for dopamine rushes, and each rush leaves them more damaged and further away from real happiness. them literally forcing a smile with floss in the middle of a drug trip and being rewarded with two wounds that will probably take weeks to heal is an exaggerated way to depict this.
@@sagpilehpapaHey, i noticed at 2:00 that he's wearing a binder. Could this be another criptic message indicating that he may be a trans male or does it have a much deeper meaning?
oh this is so gorgeous - him wanting to give his lover the liquid happiness they so crave, to save their life, but at the last second the temptation is too much. the pure anguish on his face at that second is incredible
I honestly love this animation so much, it makes me want to sob uncontrollably. I find it the most jarring that when the mc's lover(?) dies and he pulls them into the alley, he tries to inject the liquid 'happiness' into their arm, as if it'll bring them back, only to almost unwillingly plunge the syringe into himself. It simply just shows how dependent he is on it to the point where he finds saving his partner to be a waste of resources and using the liquid on himself to feel *something*, anything at all-- because he simply *needs* it.
I also love the end where we're shown the MC's bloodstream, how it only flashes yellow (signifying the use of the liquid 'happiness') for a brief moment before returning to normal, showing how he's become so dependent on the substance that it hardly even works anymore-- if not at all.
i dunno whether my interpretation made sense or not but i thought it was more on he realized how much it was damaging him and stopped before he could give it to his partner 0:? it felt like for a moment in his expression that he regretted it somehow and decided to shove it in himself to spare his partner the effects of the meds itself.
im sobbing over this. drug abuse and depression run in my family and my dad is living this lifestyle right now. seeing how sad and needy drug use turns people, more so than just knowing, and seeing it in such a heartfelt piece really hit home. i know this man. and i can't stand how deeply this hurt to watch. never stop creating, i would kill to be able to make people feel as much as you made me with this
yet another cinematic masterpiece from sagpi. never stop making art my friend. you’re bound to make it. manifesting for this to have 100,000 views on god
there were several points where this was so haunting, honestly the whole entire thing was so horrifying (in a way where i very much appreciated your work of course !!) but the transition to the ending + the ending and the part where he opens the letter felt like my heart skipped a beat. i wasn’t expecting to come across something this tragic but i’m so happy that i did. thank you for this. 💜
-listening to Mitski "eh, I don't know if I like this song" -forgets about it "okay maybe I'll listen one more time" -has it on repeat for the next month
This is so disturbing and absolutely amazing. The dream sequences with the shading is so smooth and beautiful. The way you can show so much story in just a few minutes is insanely impressive, and yet it never feels rushed
literally in awe. this is one of the most beautiful things ive ever watched. the "wild horses running through your hollow bones" cuts gave me genuine chills
Wanting to give his lover the "happiness" but the craving takes over... Oh my god the anguish! You are incredible at capturing expressions, the artistry and the movement...
Holy shit. It’s rare that a TH-cam animation makes my heart burn like this, but good god you’ve achieved it in ways others never could. This is a masterpiece
is all absorbing beauty... scene transitions, their imagination and originality... ending inside veins is hypnotic, terrible... frame-by-frame, amazing work...
i am here after your work the siren`s milk by melanie and you are utterly incredible... i have no words.. you are just a perfection. i am not kidding. it is not like i know anything about art or making animatics, just a girl who is since she was 14 loved watching such things on youtube. now i am 19 and your every work strucks me to the core of my heart. the delivery, the music, your art style, the details, the narrative, the use of colours. everything is just so my style and it looks like what i would like to create or if my imagenery turned into a real thing. you are amazing, you inspire me so much❤ (sorry for any possible mistakes, english is not my first language)
I've found this masterpiece just now, and wow. This made me feel sick, absolutely disturbingly haunting. The camera angles, the storytelling, everything goes so well with the song. You truly did a wonderful job.
bro it’s almost midnight and i can’t stop watching this… it’s so beautiful i’m sobbing isn’t an official mv but i’ve bestowed upon it the highest award i have to give: being added to the playlist of mvs i watch when i’m bored… i can’t stop rewatching it bro it’s a masterpiece
This is incredible truly oh my god. I love your interpretation of this song. Especially how you illustrated the intensity as it grows louder and more jumbled in the instrumentals, it made my heart literally pace. I loved the symbolism too, with the smiley faces and that urge to feel the serotonin rush that comes from drugs. I love this song and I love this piece and you did an amazing job at capturing the intensity of the song and everything overall.
THIS IS INSANE OH MY GOD??? absolutely in love with this... It feels like its moving at a million miles an hour, never holding on anything in specific for long, but not to the detriment of the timing of the animation. Theres so much expessiveness to it, too, and im just... Augh. The bathroom-bedroom-bathroom sequence in specific is my favorite section, i think. Thank you for making this!!
oh my fucking god this was so good!! it kinda reminds me of a cryptic disney movie and it scared the shit out of me LOL. i like the way you interpreted the song as well!!
This video is breathtaking, chilling and gorgeous in a way I cannot possibly put into words. The story and visuals are haunting and stunning at the same time, and capture so intensely the vibe of the song. An *amazing* work of art.
This is so underrated. You captured so many features. Like he has a shine in his eye only when he takes the drugs, at the intro you see the main character caress the smiley faced characters face and it numbly droops to the side. You then see the reality set into the main characters face as the shine leaves his eyes, realising his partner is dead. Also the bruising on his arms indicating that he’s taken the drugs for so long. Showing how unhappy he’s been.
as a recovering addict this song and video excellently expresses the feelings of chasing a happiness that never existed and destroying your life along the way..
your art is exceptionally haunting in a way that most people wont dare attempt. i got goosebumps all over me ughhhhhh. your art really captures the the deeper side of mitski songs that is often overlooked in other adaptations. though i have to ask, is the kissing under the moon sequence at the beginning, by any chance, inspired by the devilman crybaby ending? it looked really similar to me so im slightly curious :D great video overall!!!!
i mean this as a compliment: i have never in my entire life been made so deeply uncomfortable by any piece of animation until now. i had a massive pit in my stomach. i literally felt the anxiety come on. this entire piece is jam-packed with genuine feeling. it was like your art reached through the screen and pulled me into the setting. i literally have no idea how else to describe just how vivid this video is. terrifying, disturbing, and absolutely ASTOUNDING.
2:55 This is the most painful, most tortuous part of the whole thing I can’t even explain it, but it’s obvious The animation and expressions are *so* good you can feel them And it’s fucking agony He wants to help so bad, but they need it so bad
Its my probably 10th time watching it and finally ik where he took the body and why there was those lines on his mouth in the intro and why it disappeard seconds later
Please inform, I too, am watching this again and again and again but I wonder if my idea of what it could be is wrong or if there's another interpretation
you're amazing. you portrayed everything in this song so raw and perfect to the point it makes me feel uncomfortable watching this. crack baby always was one of mitskis most touching songs for me and to see it made in a video with such detail and emotion is amazing. you get it.
I don't relate to drug addiction at all but this is so good. It's so disturbing that it makes me want to cry. I don't know if you'll see this but you did a really good job.
This is one of the most hauntingly beautiful things I have ever seen. I have wanted to create art like this for so long and now that I have a way to visualize what exactly what I want to do you have inspired me to create, thank you so much
DUDE THIS IS SO SO GOOD WTFFFFF every single aspect of this animation is so intentional and helps tell this absolutely tragic story. the part where they used the floss to force a smile on their face will probably be in my nightmares but I DONT CARE cause it was / is cool as fuck tl;dr this video is awesome and a hidden gem and I hope mitski sees it
This genuinely made me feel something so terribly personal. I think that's what makes this so good. When something makes you feel something deeply, that's when it's a real masterpiece.
just. wow. my heart is beating so fast and when it ended i let out a breath i didn’t know i IWAS holding. you have made something truly incredible. i’ve never seen work like yours.
HI SAGPI, just wanted to tell u that theres no doubt that i rlly loved this animation and the others on ur channel. especially this one, bc crack baby is a very representative and important song for me, and u managed to convey the feeling i have when listening to it, its just really beautiful
Oh my this is so lovely!!!! you deserve so much more recognition for your work i've never seen anything this good earlier! i hope you don't overwork and take it easy! Time n effort delivers!
This is so so good, the emotion is so raw it's impossible not to feel it. There are a lot of works around internet but when something are really able to make people feel something then you know art has truly show itself. Thank you for sharing this ❤
Something about the way you animate and use your shots it’s incredible. I can’t believe nobody is talking about this more, I’ve never seen art like this.
God your animations are absolutey exquisite, and they always have so much meaning and symbolism behind every detail too. As a son of a crack-smoking heroin-injecting father who died from that, this hits especially close to home for me.
I really love how so much of the motion in this animation coincides with the sounds in the song. Also I love the coloring, it’s like watching moving images on a stone tablet. So beautiful
this is horrifying and beautiful, this felt so much longer than 5 minutes it was so detailed and skillfully made. this is brilliant and you should be so proud

correct.
@@sagpilehpapa what is the floss thing going on? Is it a real thing or is it an artistic representation of trying to be happy through pain?
rather than happiness from pain, i would say it represents getting pain from happiness, which is what this whole video intends to show.
this character has come to a point where happiness is something that needs to be artificially induced, rather than coming naturally. so now their life is a scavenge for dopamine rushes, and each rush leaves them more damaged and further away from real happiness. them literally forcing a smile with floss in the middle of a drug trip and being rewarded with two wounds that will probably take weeks to heal is an exaggerated way to depict this.
Thank you for replying and explaining. its an incredible video. You are a great artist. Hope you find much success from your work :D@@sagpilehpapa

as someone who struggled with opiate addiction and lost my partner to an overdose this just got recommended to me and hit me like a ton of bricks
so sorry for your loss, i hope you are doing well
Yeah…. It’s a very bittersweet and painful thing to have something resonate so deeply to the darkest parts of you.
im so sorry for your loss, i hope youre doing well
oh this is so gorgeous - him wanting to give his lover the liquid happiness they so crave, to save their life, but at the last second the temptation is too much. the pure anguish on his face at that second is incredible
spot on!
your art is a joy to behold
exactly 😢
I HATE THE ALGORITHM FOR NOT SHOWING THIS TO MORE PEOPPE
Unfortunately the algorithm didn’t recommend me this but it blessed me with Melanie’s milk of the siren and that’s how I got here 😌

This is so disturbing and absolutely amazing. The dream sequences with the shading is so smooth and beautiful. The way you can show so much story in just a few minutes is insanely impressive, and yet it never feels rushed
every time i’m struggling i come to this video and remember pain is impossible to avoid but suffering is optional
This is one of the most hauntingly beautiful things i’ve ever saw. Just…. holy shit
literally in awe. this is one of the most beautiful things ive ever watched. the "wild horses running through your hollow bones" cuts gave me genuine chills
Wanting to give his lover the "happiness" but the craving takes over... Oh my god the anguish! You are incredible at capturing expressions, the artistry and the movement...
i still come back to this video
Holy shit. It’s rare that a TH-cam animation makes my heart burn like this, but good god you’ve achieved it in ways others never could. This is a masterpiece
This is insane! Gives me the creeps, absolutely amazingly done
i love this video. it also ruined my life
LITERALLY

i just love how you represented the line "wild horses running throught your hollow bones", it just fits so perfectly the song
This is incredible truly oh my god. I love your interpretation of this song. Especially how you illustrated the intensity as it grows louder and more jumbled in the instrumentals, it made my heart literally pace. I loved the symbolism too, with the smiley faces and that urge to feel the serotonin rush that comes from drugs. I love this song and I love this piece and you did an amazing job at capturing the intensity of the song and everything overall.
this is painfully beautiful
to me, this video is the sentence "Art is meant to disturb the comforted and comfort the disturbed."
THIS IS INSANE OH MY GOD???
absolutely in love with this... It feels like its moving at a million miles an hour, never holding on anything in specific for long, but not to the detriment of the timing of the animation. Theres so much expessiveness to it, too, and im just... Augh.
The bathroom-bedroom-bathroom sequence in specific is my favorite section, i think. Thank you for making this!!
genuinely mad that not enough people has seen this video. ive never seen anything that i just understand so well. i get it and it gets me 😕.
2:14 breathtaking…
well not literally really because rip however this is so beautifully made and I felt soo much emotion
THIS IS PEAK??? HELLLO???
oh my fucking god this was so good!! it kinda reminds me of a cryptic disney movie and it scared the shit out of me LOL. i like the way you interpreted the song as well!!
This is so good, I can't believe the algorithm only showed me this a year later. :(

no, i haven't watched that show. it's been mentioned a couple times already in my comments, though. perhaps i should check it out.

Oh my oh my, there yellow scenes with the horses are absolutely gorgeous my friend!! :) mad respect
i love this animation, it encaptures the feeling of addiction so well. i got literal chills watching this
chilling. never stop doing this, you have an amazing gift.
This video will forever be in my heart, how much I cried watching this is indescribable :(
holy shit the storytelling 🙆♂
This was absolutely beautiful. The way you animate affection blows me away.
This is also how I find out that she wasn't singing to somebody named Kirk
Almost fell to my knees with the horses
This is the best animation that I've seen!
I want to draw now
I ABSOLUTELY ADORE YOUR ANIMATIONS!!! your art style is so unique and special. Never stop making art, you are such an inspiration to all :)
Crack baby you don't know what you want
But you know that you had it once
And you know that you want it back
literally the most moving piece of animation I have ever witnessed. ty
This was a very visceral animation. I loved every bit of it. It reminded me of the music video of the Keane song: "Bedshaped".
2:55
This is the most painful, most tortuous part of the whole thing
I can’t even explain it, but it’s obvious
The animation and expressions are *so* good you can feel them
And it’s fucking agony
He wants to help so bad, but they need it so bad
Its my probably 10th time watching it and finally ik where he took the body and why there was those lines on his mouth in the intro and why it disappeard seconds later

god damn. this animation is beautiful. you portrayed the emotions so well. this randomly was thrown on my suggested. god damn.
im sobbing rn thank you for this.. also this convinced me to learn animation 😭
This is actually gorgeously made.
Im in love with the way you portray mania and delusions in your animations
I LOVE THIS MORE MITSKI PLEASE
everything in this is so well done, the droplet of blood hitting the water, it's just beautiful
I don't relate to drug addiction at all but this is so good. It's so disturbing that it makes me want to cry. I don't know if you'll see this but you did a really good job.
There's so much fluidity, it's incredible
I never thought an animation could be like this. Its so hard to describe but it explains the story so well and this deserves to be seen more
This is one of the most hauntingly beautiful things I have ever seen. I have wanted to create art like this for so long and now that I have a way to visualize what exactly what I want to do you have inspired me to create, thank you so much
this fucking beautiful. eveythting about it, it perfectly captures crack baby. you are so insanely talented.
DUDE THIS IS SO SO GOOD WTFFFFF
every single aspect of this animation is so intentional and helps tell this absolutely tragic story. the part where they used the floss to force a smile on their face will probably be in my nightmares but I DONT CARE cause it was / is cool as fuck
tl;dr this video is awesome and a hidden gem and I hope mitski sees it
This genuinely made me feel something so terribly personal. I think that's what makes this so good. When something makes you feel something deeply, that's when it's a real masterpiece.
Genius. Just genius, pure talent and hours of work.
just. wow. my heart is beating so fast and when it ended i let out a breath i didn’t know i IWAS holding. you have made something truly incredible. i’ve never seen work like yours.
this is the most underrated beauty i've ever seen
deserves so much more
Sent genuine shivers down my spine and made me sob like a baby, thank you for this incredible animation of my favorite Mitski song 🥲
this is one of the best metaphors i’ve ever seen in my entire life
The loss of a loved one and the pain of addiction
Thats one strong dude, carrying a corpse like its a mannequin
sobbed so hard to this. beautiful animations never get the attention they deserve. i love this❤
THİS MADE ME SİCK OMGGGG YOU GAVE THE ATMOSPHERE OF THE SONG SO WELLL I LOVED THE CAMERA MOVEMENT YOU ARE AMAZİNNNGGG KEEP UP THE GREAT WORKKK

im crying
Omg this is my favourite song!! U don't know how happy and excited i got when i saw the title!!
Amazing art work worth it, this is a master piece
Oh my god this shit made me cry
I think about this video too much it’s amazing
I’m not crying I’m just amazed how well this was explained! (I’m actually both.)
dude this entire animation sent shivers down my spine
Something about the way you animate and use your shots it’s incredible. I can’t believe nobody is talking about this more, I’ve never seen art like this.
this is so visceral, genuinely amazing work. wow
God your animations are absolutey exquisite, and they always have so much meaning and symbolism behind every detail too. As a son of a crack-smoking heroin-injecting father who died from that, this hits especially close to home for me.
This gives off summer vibes dunno why reminds me of summer
maybe because of the long, hard, twenty-year summer vacation?
Omg it's so unsettling I love it
I really love how so much of the motion in this animation coincides with the sounds in the song. Also I love the coloring, it’s like watching moving images on a stone tablet. So beautiful
Я сижу сейчас и реву в ванной😭 я не умею подбирать нормально слова, но это правда меня дико тронуло.
this is horrifying and beautiful, this felt so much longer than 5 minutes it was so detailed and skillfully made. this is brilliant and you should be so proud
