@@syntheticsilkwood2206 It's not the people, it's the mega-corporations who control what gets exposed to people. It's the handful of corps who own all the radio stations, and the streaming services, in league with the major labels, who want to concentrate all the focus on as few celebrities as possible, for the sake of efficiency and more reliable profitability. It's their fault that, unless you're the latest Disney product (Arianna, Olivia Rodrigo), get approval from Nashville or reality TV (Morgan Wallen, Luke Combs), or gain traction in the UK, where corporate control isn't quite as all-encompassing (Dua Lipa, Harry Styles, last year's surprise #1 Glass Animals), it's very, very hard to break through the charts. Caroline not blowing up isn't because people don't care about better music, but because the vast majority of people have never even heard of her. Unless you're in the relatively small percentage of people who consider music among the most important things in life, and are therefore willing to spend your precious time seeking out the best, there's almost no way you *would* ever hear of her - but just because most people have other things in their lives they prefer spending their free time on, doesn't mean they aren't capable of appreciating better music, or that they don't deserve the opportunity to easily discover it, by simply flipping thru stations rather than manually searching an app. This theft of opportunity is the main reason why it's bad to allow so few companies to own everything, particularly radio stations. Blame Reagan and Clinton for the de-regulation that allowed the corps to gobble everything up. This is the reason why we can no longer take it for granted that better music will rise to the top - that all the #1 hits are from the same handful of celebrities - that we've had an average of 11 different #1s each year over the last decade, rather than the 30+ per year we had in the 70s. It's not because people suddenly forgot how to make good music, or stopped caring about good music. It's because we allowed greedy corporations to choke off mass distribution. Leading to whole generations of people who don't even know that better is possible. Or who assume that lazy millennials/zoomers don't know how to make good music or they just have bad taste. Or, no offence, that people nowadays care more about celebrity than music - truly, I don't blame anyone for thinking that way, it's an easy perspective to fall in to. But I think there's a strong case to be made that younger millennials and zoomers actually care less about celebrity, and more about authentic expression, than GenX or older generations do. It's just that the musical horizon that's seen by most people has shrunk considerably, without the competition of thousands of independent radio stations jockeying to discover the next big act and taking chances on a greater variety of genres and styles, as they did for decades up until the corps succeeded in shutting them out shortly after de-regulation freed their hand to do so around the turn of the century. Anyone who's read this far has my deepest thanks, and I humbly ask that you consider my perspective and be a little less quick to blame the people for society's problems, when mega-corporations have so much more power and control than any of us do, while most of us are struggling just to get by. Solidarity.

I love her videos too, though I’d still say there’s a decent level of production involved. This one for example would have required professional storyboarding/planning and choreography, a sound stage, set design and set builders, lighting and camera equipment, directors, mua’s, stylists and other crew, and post-production work like editing, colour grading and vfx work. So it’s not like a small indie artist who just films something on their phone, there’s still a decent level of production and therefore funding required.

@@monsieurlepenguin6602 I think all Caroline’s songs have a much deeper meaning then the pop culture she portrays. She clearly mixes her reality and spirituality very well. In many of her songs it is her “non-physical” soul in speaking in song. I don’t think it has anything to do with reality but spirituality. This song is about truth and overcoming deception. Bunny is symbol for the white rabbit which Caroline puts into many of her songs. The white rabbit is symbolism for finding truths. This music video portrays the Roman story of the Minotaur labyrinth. She mixes her spirituality of overcoming evils by finding truth. I think she hides many secret meanings in all her songs. They’re very deep and intricate because of how much thought goes into her lyrics and music videos.
She's definitely building to an album. The labels on boxes are highlighted throughout the video, one of which is "Sunset" the title for her newest song. I anticipate "Terracotta", "Big coins", "Sirens", and maybe even "Rocket Science" coming next!

Heard this on GTA 5's "MOTOMAMI Los Santos" radio on Valentines day 2023.. had that feeling when you 1st hear a song that you love right away and want to listen over again. Can't wait to hear this more on GTA
I wore a sweater with a extra large bunny on it to the last Chairlift concert and I waved at her family so I feel like they told her the guy with the big hair and the bunny sweater was dancing and into it and she made this song just for me. Lol. I have met Caroline in person at a different Chairlift concert too. She is the nicest down to earth celebrity I have ever met. A great dancer, songwriter, performer and artist. Big shoutout to Brooklyn and big hugs from Queens.

0:26 There's an Easter Egg! NEW SHAPES is written on the left box, this video was released months before the collab came out -- Very sneaky Caroline ;)
Did Caroline really "Invent" that particular teleportation device?... I am glad she didn't fall for that common misconception that there is a need for a stupid, fancy Post-transmit, particle containment filter . It looks really cool to just let that toxic, glowing orange, quantum "dust" form and dissipate . The irradiated bits of energy leaving those specter-like tracers as it travels along the last probable known vector as it transforms into unassigned non-information . Too many people assume just because it can be highly unstable and "technically" it could begin to anihilate in an unregulated chain reaction , that that stuff is composed of Anti- matter.... i mean... hello people... it is not anti-matter... it is " unassigned, non information, that no longer exists ." It will dissipate long before it ever can have a chance to cause any long term detrimental effect. Look, at it this way...since It is generated after the dimensional jump is initiated it isn't actually of any real significance, and, since it always remains within the redundant dimension that established protocol requires you to erase anyway , why waste anything required to contain it? Under the Laws of Thermodynamic Protocol, the one thing that remains constant, Always.. without question,, no matter what dimension you consider to be relevant , Is..... that you are required to erase the redundant dimensional anomaly that occurs whenever a interdimensional intersect has been allowed to form. right? I
@@killermachine6859 I must disagree. Although I concur that post-transmission containment is unnecessary, it's not because dissipation occurs too quickly, rather, because the non-information (in a linear sense) has been transferred to the environmental Hilbert space, from which it can never spontaneously return. But erasure of redundant dimensions is a myth. (I know, I know, that makes me sound like one of those lunatics who still rant about Building 7 and "Jet fuel can't melt steel beams", but, please, just hear me out) Consider the no-hiding theorem, experimentally proven way back in 2011 by Samuel L. Braunstein and Arun K. Pati. It's true that the non-information (from our perspective) cannot pose any danger on it's own, but Braunstein and Pati showed that it can be intentionally recovered from the environment by local unitary transformations acting only on the environment Hilbert space, by use of the ancilla qubits of a quantum computer. For example, if classical information is lost from one system it may either move to another system or can be hidden in the correlation between a pair of bit strings. However, quantum information cannot be completely hidden in correlations between a pair of subsystems. Quantum mechanics allows only one way to completely hide an arbitrary quantum state from one of its subsystems. If it is lost from one subsystem, then it moves to other subsystems. It can also be proven that pure states remain pure states and probabilistic combination of pure states (called as mixed states) remain mixed states under unitary evolution. (unfortunate language, that, with it's 'pure' vs 'mixed', but we're talking quantum energies here, not crude and false notions of so-called human 'races') To put it somewhat more plainly, one may say that as energy keeps changing its form, the wave function keep moving from one Hilbert space to another Hilbert space, and since the wave function contains all the relevant information about a physical system, the conservation of wave function is tantamount to conservation of quantum information. Therefore, dimensional erasure is impossible, and those who established it as the unquestioned protocol in all interdimensional intersects were selling yet another Big Lie to the 99.5% of humanity who aren't sufficiently educated in quantum mechanics to know any better. All in an effort to keep people calm and complacent. What are they hiding? What's really going on in all those so-called 'redundant' dimensions that were supposedly erased? And, now that vast swaths of humanity are flittering this way and that, dispersing all throughout the multi-dimensional multi-verse, totally clueless as to the true nature of the realms through which they travel, what will happen when this shocking truth is finally, inevitably, revealed? So, I ask again, WHAT ARE THEY HIDING !?!

I rather like it when we consume art and it's abstract enough that we all can relate and experience it. The artist is important I guess but not enough to make it everyone's business as to what went behind it unless the viewer wants to know and can read up about it. I don't want to see her in this video/lyric I want to see me and when I'm ready I'll look this kind of info myself
I had to watch caroline open for dua lipa and I was overtaken. like; I didnt know how to feel about it in the moment but I knew I had to listen to her after, and I'm so glad I did. I had heard about bunny is a rider and intended to listen to it but never got around to it. I'm obsessed. this song is incredible and her musicianship is top tier. I've listened to pang 3 times through and I plan on listening again. I didnt really ever think her stuff was my kind of music, but I get excited just thinking about it, even if it isnt necessarily my taste. its growing on me so much and I'm happy to say I'm a caroline polachek fan.

Her videos proof that a creative direction sometimes is better than a millionaire budget. She makes incredible videos with so little it's amazing.
I love her videos too, though I’d still say there’s a decent level of production involved. This one for example would have required professional storyboarding/planning and choreography, a sound stage, set design and set builders, lighting and camera equipment, directors, mua’s, stylists and other crew, and post-production work like editing, colour grading and vfx work.

Bunny is symbol for the white rabbit which Caroline puts into many of her songs. The white rabbit is symbolism for finding truths. This music video portrays the Roman story of the Minotaur labyrinth. She mixes her spirituality of overcoming evils by finding truth. I think she hides many secret meanings in all her songs. They’re very deep and intricate because of how much thought goes into her lyrics and music videos.
@@nickyla07 yes
i read this comment at the exact moment she said it lol
holy shit i thought it was "i'm sold on physical" this whole time. not sure what it meant exactly. that makes a lot more sense
the way she teased sunset here, queen of foreshadowing
i know right !! amazing
The box that says "WHOLE NEW WORLD" 😭💞
One of the boxes on the left at 1:50 says "Whole New World" loving the SOPHIE reference there
3:03 Flume - Sirens feat. Carloine Polachek led me here, what else is in those boxes?
I forgot about Flume
We stan the spanish bullfighter queen fantasy no cruelty included.
Omg at 0:27 you can see a "New Shapes" box referencing the collab with Charli and Christine
slay
I’m really trying to understand how this isn’t all over the radio!? Get this chick her spotlight!!
OMFG I'VE NEVER CLOSED THE BIBLE THIS FAST
Better flip it back open to see what it says about idolatry.

Congrats on being #1 on pitchfork top100 list
SHE REALLY DID THAT ♥♥♥
So Non-Physical ♥️
2:03 Amei a participação especial do Olavo de Carvalho 🥰

when she said at 0:36 "bunny is a riiiiIIIIiiiIIIIIiiider" I FELT! that! SHIT! 🤣🔥✨
She literally makes super hits.. deserves a billion views
Period.
Never heard of her and boom along come All Points East. Fan for life and Chloe rocks!!!
0:28 the box to the left says new shapes :)
what you want
i ain' got it!!!
her vocals emulating a bird just brings me a type of solace I can't explain. Her style is flawless
X2
nice it’s me danny in the comments
🙌🙌🎼🤟💪✌
it's true, it's you
Amazing work! Production is phenomenal as usual. Love the samples and the little melodic flourishes.
She's definitely building to an album. The labels on boxes are highlighted throughout the video, one of which is "Sunset" the title for her newest song. I anticipate "Terracotta", "Big coins", "Sirens", and maybe even "Rocket Science" coming next!
Sirens is her song with Flume!
there was a box that said new shapes her song with charli xcx!
Dynamite!!
what about geese :o
@MSN oh thats so cool
Sat at the table next to you during lunch at La Pubilla in Barcelona, was totally fangirling but tried to act clueless. I really love you, you are my favourite pirate and I don't know what to do with these feelings
I would totally want to sit next to you at that moment
I would've spontaneously combusted and probably soil my pants
A real ryda can love themselves enough to put themselves out there without fear of rejection or humiliation....
Real rydas can work that mouthpiece with enough confidence and grace to seal the deal...your doing them the favor of allowing your soul to be available for intermingling .........
Sad because Caroline's tour tickets are so NONPHYSICAL in my area
Bruh same lol
I have 4 section B tickets for the LA show, reselling them for the exact price they were purchased for, if anyone on that area is interested. DM me
😂😂
Don't remind me 😖
I wish she was stopping at more locations in more states AHHHHH the closest show from me is 10 hours away
My inspiration for my music❤
Pitchfork's #1 2021 song! So deserved!!
she's like "shoulda never smoked that shit now I'm in Silent Hill"
💀😭
Lmaoooo
Hahah needs more fog
LMAO
I swear she used the same sample at the end of her new single Dang: is that just me? The sound I'm thinking of is this 0:09 - 0:11.
If you listen to Dang, go to the timestamp 2:40. I swear it's the same sound.
yes it's the same sample
Ariadne distracting her half-brother, the Minotaur, so Theseus can sneak behind him for the killing blow
whaaat
@@ajsuflena156 Theseus and the Minotaur, Ariadne guides Theseus through the labyrinth in which the Minotaur dwelled, and yes Ariadne's mother is the Queen of Minos, the Minotaur is her younger sibling.
@@visionofsolace8961 Minotaur is also Dionysus' dark angry epithet so it's actually kinda romantic that she got that side of his killed and soon after he found his connection to domesticity sleeping and married her ❤️
@@Cheiko18 that also makes a lot of sense
@@visionofsolace8961 he's connected to stars (ampelos, ariadnes crown) and Minotaur is the starry bull :)
Someone who has experience his lessons deeply one has to take up the domestic, kind method(ariadnes thread) to move forward otherwise one gets stuck in the labyrinth repeating the process again and again.
Our elf queen has come to save us in this time of despair. No choice but to stannnn
Just realized the labeled boxes hint at the song titles for the new album. 0:36 you can see Sunset clearly, the new single.
1:45 this whole sequence is just legendary, I literally died and came back to life while watching
weirdly enough i actually love her dancing. its not like anything super crazy mind-blowing, but its unique and very original. honestly i dont think ive seen dancing like that before.
@@henrystoes6508 I think it's very similar to middle eastern belly dancing, so many dances from many cultures goes unnoticed in the western world lol
queen of labyrinths and unfindable music videos 😍
Heard this on GTA 5's "MOTOMAMI Los Santos" radio on Valentines day 2023.. had that feeling when you 1st hear a song that you love right away and want to listen over again. Can't wait to hear this more on GTA
The whistle and baby laugh are just AMAZING!!!
the baby giggling is nico harle, danny harles baby😭😭
@@majordelilah "NICO HARLE" is written on one of the boxes.
Danny L. baby sound confirmed?
@@AisuruMirai yep!! so cute
@@chloeandream DANNY L BABY😭
She's got a point, she's an icon, she's a legend and she's the moment
OMG I've just commented the same hahahah
Now c'mon now!
How you doin'...?
And she is a rider!
She hasn't been around long enough to have been established as a legend or an icon. Hyperbole is literally destroying us as a species haha.
Looking back Caroline actually teased so many new tracks in this video:
Sirens @ 3:02
Sunset @ 0:36
News Shapes @ 0:27 on the left side
🤯
There's even Long Road Home at 1:37 but hardly visible
Long Road Home also right at the end in the upper left corner
@@Tom-tf1fy Nice catch!
Anyone saw the world "Island"? Apparently Is the new single.
@@rodo6795 in bunny is a rider i didn't see any but 'welcome to my island' appeared in the sunset mv
tag yourself as one of the boxes. i'm "geese"
Terracotta for me
Friendly ghosts
i'm definitely awkward encounters
I'm acquired tastes
im 'literally nothing'
This is Pitchfolk's song of the year No.1, congratulations!!
best pop music that is available these days. highly creative, clever, catchy, surprising and perfectly produced.
Miss Croft, I hope you find bunny. 🐰
BUSSY I LIVE FOR YOUR STANNING MY QUEEN
I love you
I love that we both love Caroline Polachek
Great queens have great things in common!
Two queens!
In times like this at least we can take comfort in knowing that bunny is undoubtedly a rider
lol! I admire your confidence
dope
absolute fav part of the song 1:28-1:44
I wore a sweater with a extra large bunny on it to the last Chairlift concert and I waved at her family so I feel like they told her the guy with the big hair and the bunny sweater was dancing and into it and she made this song just for me. Lol. I have met Caroline in person at a different Chairlift concert too. She is the nicest down to earth celebrity I have ever met. A great dancer, songwriter, performer and artist. Big shoutout to Brooklyn and big hugs from Queens.
i bake a lot of sourdough and every time i check on a bread that has risen exceptionally well i say in my head “bready is a riser” 😋
a labyrinth, a minotaur, teleporting(ghosting?), being "pursued", cornered ... interesting video concept as always
Her modern take off on the minotaur myth is just gENIUS. Caroline is out of this world literally no satellite can find her
Stumbled across this when I was listening to Dido on spotify...amazing voice. Can't stop hitting repeat
The Lara Croft finding a space jump relic & using it to fight the Minotaur vibes are just ✨spectacular✨
The power that that has, the intelligence that that has, the clearance that that has, the access that that has, the influence that that has, the profile that that has, the international implications that that has, the rider that that bunny truly is
awww!!
I want that teleportation thing. It would be awesome to be non physical in awkward situations or just disappear whenever you want.
0:26 There's an Easter Egg! NEW SHAPES is written on the left box, this video was released months before the collab came out -- Very sneaky Caroline ;)
Fun fact! Caroline invented the teleportation device used in the video herself! Multi-talented queen!
so you could say she's ....multi-dimensional ? ;)
Did Caroline really "Invent" that particular teleportation device?... I am glad she didn't fall for that common misconception that there is a need for a stupid, fancy Post-transmit, particle containment filter . It looks really cool to just let that toxic, glowing orange, quantum "dust" form and dissipate . The irradiated bits of energy leaving those specter-like tracers as it travels along the last probable known vector as it transforms into unassigned non-information . Too many people assume just because it can be highly unstable and "technically" it could begin to anihilate in an unregulated chain reaction , that that stuff is composed of Anti- matter.... i mean... hello people... it is not anti-matter... it is " unassigned, non information, that no longer exists ." It will dissipate long before it ever can have a chance to cause any long term detrimental effect. Look, at it this way...since It is generated after the dimensional jump is initiated it isn't actually of any real significance, and, since it always remains within the redundant dimension that established protocol requires you to erase anyway , why waste anything required to contain it? Under the Laws of Thermodynamic Protocol, the one thing that remains constant, Always.. without question,, no matter what dimension you consider to be relevant , Is..... that you are required to erase the redundant dimensional anomaly that occurs whenever a interdimensional intersect has been allowed to form. right? I
@@killermachine6859 I must disagree. Although I concur that post-transmission containment is unnecessary, it's not because dissipation occurs too quickly, rather, because the non-information (in a linear sense) has been transferred to the environmental Hilbert space, from which it can never spontaneously return. But erasure of redundant dimensions is a myth. (I know, I know, that makes me sound like one of those lunatics who still rant about Building 7 and "Jet fuel can't melt steel beams", but, please, just hear me out)
Consider the no-hiding theorem, experimentally proven way back in 2011 by Samuel L. Braunstein and Arun K. Pati. It's true that the non-information (from our perspective) cannot pose any danger on it's own, but Braunstein and Pati showed that it can be intentionally recovered from the environment by local unitary transformations acting only on the environment Hilbert space, by use of the ancilla qubits of a quantum computer. For example, if classical information is lost from one system it may either move to another system or can be hidden in the correlation between a pair of bit strings. However, quantum information cannot be completely hidden in correlations between a pair of subsystems. Quantum mechanics allows only one way to completely hide an arbitrary quantum state from one of its subsystems. If it is lost from one subsystem, then it moves to other subsystems. It can also be proven that pure states remain pure states and probabilistic combination of pure states (called as mixed states) remain mixed states under unitary evolution. (unfortunate language, that, with it's 'pure' vs 'mixed', but we're talking quantum energies here, not crude and false notions of so-called human 'races')
To put it somewhat more plainly, one may say that as energy keeps changing its form, the wave function keep moving from one Hilbert space to another Hilbert space, and since the wave function contains all the relevant information about a physical system, the conservation of wave function is tantamount to conservation of quantum information.
Therefore, dimensional erasure is impossible, and those who established it as the unquestioned protocol in all interdimensional intersects were selling yet another Big Lie to the 99.5% of humanity who aren't sufficiently educated in quantum mechanics to know any better. All in an effort to keep people calm and complacent.
What are they hiding? What's really going on in all those so-called 'redundant' dimensions that were supposedly erased? And, now that vast swaths of humanity are flittering this way and that, dispersing all throughout the multi-dimensional multi-verse, totally clueless as to the true nature of the realms through which they travel, what will happen when this shocking truth is finally, inevitably, revealed?
So, I ask again, WHAT ARE THEY HIDING !?!
This song has really grown on me. I listened it a while ago and didn't vibe with it. Now it's stuck in my head.
Love that the meaning of this song is liberation in disappearance.
FLUME: da fuck is this song about? It makes no sense to me.
CAROLINE: Oh, it's about nothing.
FLUME: What do you mean?
CAROLINE: These words just sounded good. It's a vibe.
Pitchfork Best Song of 2021 🤣
@@neiIIism and pitchfork was right for that
This song's melody is seriously addictive. That whistle is just chefs kiss
Sometimes Rockstar find good artist like her.
yaaaaas bunny literally is a rider
This is the song of this summer. Such a bop - I can't with her mind
I see Sunset, Desire, and Smoke boxes now. En easter egg enthusiast is fully satisfied, love you Caroline congrats on the album of the year
ah also sirens not really from the album but the era
“the project highlights her relationship with the camera. hating it and running from it, but also needing it and feeding it as part of her career/art practice.”
- will wharton, visual effects editor of the video
I rather like it when we consume art and it's abstract enough that we all can relate and experience it. The artist is important I guess but not enough to make it everyone's business as to what went behind it unless the viewer wants to know and can read up about it. I don't want to see her in this video/lyric I want to see me and when I'm ready I'll look this kind of info myself
@@Cheiko18 Oh calm down. You can use your imagination? Sometimes it’s nice to know what the artist is expressing through their work. Just a quote.
@@georginablackwell7122 no one spoke to you
Thanks, I was going to look it up when watching the second time, could really go a lot of directions, but I like seeing their artistic view as well
SHE'S COMING! i am excited for this new era, Pang had had feeling Art Noveau, and now? Carol you are the art. The Concept. I cant wait!!!!!!!!
I had to watch caroline open for dua lipa and I was overtaken. like; I didnt know how to feel about it in the moment but I knew I had to listen to her after, and I'm so glad I did. I had heard about bunny is a rider and intended to listen to it but never got around to it. I'm obsessed. this song is incredible and her musicianship is top tier. I've listened to pang 3 times through and I plan on listening again. I didnt really ever think her stuff was my kind of music, but I get excited just thinking about it, even if it isnt necessarily my taste. its growing on me so much and I'm happy to say I'm a caroline polachek fan.
i was not a huge fan of the song at first, but the video made it grow on me. thank u, caroline, your vision is immaculate. keep up with the good work, baby
wait am I the only one that noticed “Sunset” is written on the tape in the beginning of the video?! SHE WAS GIVING US HINTS
Sirens is a name on the box. How much you all want to bet the album title is on one of those boxes?
The album has something to do with a Volcano too right. She debuted that at Coachella.
Geez, the anticipation is killing me!
The best song of 2021 by pitchfork!? Congratulation!!
Also I love the idea for the video - great and subtle use of greek mythology
I'm completely addicted to this and Pretty In Possible's melodies, and I don't want to quit
I love this way she dances, simple and unique movements
From a production standpoint, this song is so damn clean
I get such Burial vibes from the last third with the filtered vocal snippets
Ok, but, we can talk about caroline's whistle, it's sooo cuuute, well... all the song it's cuty
I have been a fan of chairlift since 2012 I’m seriously so proud of CP she deserves all the success
Initials omg
@@BernardoPatino ugh shut up aaaaa now I can't stop thinking about it
Maybe spell out her name
I love driving around los santos when its plays❤
Watching this back and seeing all of the Easter eggs on the box labels - like sunset and geese - is so fun
I have no idea what she’s talking about but i’ve missed my exit numerous times on the highway bopping to this song 🎵
First watch: I'M SO NON-PHYSICAL ✨🎶✨🎶✨🎶
Second watch: pauses every 2 seconds to read the labels on the boxes like 🕵️
I’m obsessed with that little flourish at the very end 3:00
IVE BEEN LISTENING TO THIS ON REPEAT SINCE IT CAME OUT NOW I CAN LOOK AT IT FOR HOURS TOO
one of the stickers on one of the boxes says whole new world :( rip sophie
2:21 I like what they did with the cameraman's shadow here
i don't know what's the meaning of this song but girl i'm bopping
