I'm new to your channel, and I gotta say it's so refreshing watching a doctor react to music videos on TH-cam. Not many doctors do this, and showing your likes and interests to people really humanizes you. It's heartwarming. Loved the reaction!
Pay attention to the mirror 😄. At the beginning of the video there's a shot where her reflection in the mirror is not doing the same movements that she is doing. It starts out subtle -- her mirror reflection brushes her hair, but she doesn't. Then it gets really obvious -- her reflection spins 360 degrees, but she doesn't! In your video it starts around the timestamp 2:24 - in the original video it starts around 15 seconds in. (This is part of the whole trippy, psychedelic mood that you mentioned.) After this we see some shots where the camera shows mostly the reflection. Then at 2:47 in your video we see a shot where she doesn't seem to have a reflection in the mirror. Possibly she does, but the camera is perfectly lined up to not show it. We know the mirror is there, because we can still see the vertical line where the mirror segments come together. Starting at 3:21 in your video, she appears to be alone in the room, there is nobody behind her and the mirror behind her shows no other people anywhere. But then the camera moves around her and suddenly swings to the left to show the mirror, and the room is full of people behind her! This is made to seem like it is all one camera shot with a continuously moving camera. In general, having mirrors in the room adds to the challenge of creating the video, because it would be distracting to see the camera operator in the reflection, and they nicely avoid showing this. But check out the magic at around 5:18 of your video -- it's very quick, but the camera goes right past her from right to left, right in front of the mirror. We should see the camera in the mirror! But there is nothing there. Possibly the reason this cut is so quick is because they had to digitally edit out the camera in the reflection. At 5:27 she gets down on the floor on her side, supported by her right arm, and then the video cuts to a scene with her surrounded by other dancers, but she is still in this same position. Though it is an obvious cut to a new camera angle, the continuity of her body position from one shot to the next implies that it is all one sequence and the dancers have appeared around her. At 6:49 of your video -- "I come and I go" -- we see only Dua Lipa -- then right after "I'm not here for long" there is a sequence where the room is full of dancers, then the camera appears to tilt down and back up again and all the dancers are gone except for Dua Lipa (but only for a second, then they are all back again). On this one too, it is not an obvious cut because the down-up camera movement disguises it. I'm calling out these particular moments because the other times the dancers appear and disappear are obvious video cuts without much "magic" to them, but a few of them really are like a magician's illusion. Even if you don't consciously notice the strange nature of the mirror, where it sometimes seems like a perfectly normal mirror and other times has these "magic" properties, on some level I think this would still create an unusual feeling. I'd even guess that putting these illusions in a few places surrounded by more normal, expected camera cuts is a way to make them less obvious, so that the video has a mysterious quality but it is harder to notice what is causing it. This fits with your observation that the video is only set in one location, but it seems complex and layered.
I love the references to the greatest illusionist ever: Houdini. Throughout this video the use of mirrors, lights … and the tiny key on her tongue (shown on Spotify) all about creating an illusion, an effect that Dua controls… female empowerment
I love Dua Lipa she is one of the Best Singers of our tunes her voice is so sultry Sweet and so powerful, when I Hear Her Songs I can't help it but all I! want is to dance and feel goose bumps, an amazin great sensation❤
We knew music of Dua, we knew it makes us beyond happy but many thanks for sharing the synapse of how things trigger the brain. The way the song has come out from conception to the finish is a testament to her unrelenting passion for perfection.
This video production probably took longer to make than the actual song itself,like the image of two different Dua dancing in front of the mirror at the same time being just one example of an incredibly complex scene creation throughout the entire video.
I liked the video you did of Harry Mack... Its true about Music - thats why i like watching his videos besides the insane raps, but seeing the ppls reactions and the emotions is the best part. And Dua Lipa slaps too.
If you enjoy NF’s music I would recommend twenty one pilots. Car Radio would be a great one to get your take on. That song(without giving spoilers)is about handling circumstance your in.
Hi I’ve been experiencing tremors in both of my legs, which my Neuro has diagnosed as Orthostatic Tremors. I’m finding out that there’s very little study or much of anything known about this condition, and there’s no known cure. Could you make a video to help with awareness of this condition that can be very disabling?
I sustained a traumatic closed head injury and during speech therapy listening to music, I learned to talk again

It was great writing this with my friend Dua!
That’s so cool! Thank you for sharing your creativity with us! Great song!

I love how respectful open clear meaningful rich and informative your way of talking, first time watching your video and subscribed directly
This song particularly reminds me of early 80's Euro Pop... Which was really good music (I'm 59).
This song has legit lifted my spirits for a few days now
Hi! I'm japanese. I love this music too💃 Your reaction is so good!!
Love Dua Lipa and this channel!!💞✨️

Hope you react on levitating, physical , don't start now it's amazing and dance video
this reaction video made me feel like i got a free therapy session.
Yes. Dua is an outstanding person. I recently discovered her book/reading project Service95 which also has a TH-cam channel. I highly recommend it ❤
Hello. I do not know Dua. Ty for posting this sample of her stuff
nice video!! dua is incredible indeed ❤️🔥❤️🔥
I hear MJ’s THRILLER in the song. Am I aone?
It’s not fair to have my neurosurgeon crush and my pop singer crush in the same TH-cam video *swoons

You’re so intellectually and visually beautiful ❤
I love listening to your thoughts because they have so much depth to them.
Enjoy your weekend 🥂
Omg!! I know you do a lot of NFs react videos!!! Please do Story by NF, it’s chillingly amazing! ❤
Love you Anna❤
I liked the video you did of Harry Mack... Its true about Music - thats why i like watching his videos besides the insane raps, but seeing the ppls reactions and the emotions is the best part. And Dua Lipa slaps too.
Ela é perfeita lindo clip
Love this!
Would love to see you react to Pentatonix
I like your reaction
I don’t know who is more fit hot sexy beautiful gorgeous you or dua 😢😢😮😮❤❤
If you enjoy NF’s music I would recommend twenty one pilots. Car Radio would be a great one to get your take on. That song(without giving spoilers)is about handling circumstance your in.
Interesting
🙏🙏🙏❤🙏🙏🙏
SUPER ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I think you are reacting more to the video than the music. Also I believe that the song was written by others with some input by Dua. Good song.
Could you make some video about L- Theanine

My favorite is Meg Myers. Elliphant has some upbeat songs.
Want goosebumps from acoustic and harmonizing? Listen to "The Green - Alive (Live Acoustic)."
idk who I was watching more, Lipa or Anna. In all seriousness tho, I'd rack up some serious doctor bills if she was my neurologist.
How can we contact you Anna? I have depression questions for you...
Would you please react to Dax - To Be a Man?
I like and love the song and her and or but I don’t like her top cover up
The song is great but the video is bloody cringe to me.
