Lyrics:
I saw it coming
Like the shadow on the wall
You starting running
When everything turned cold
How did I become a lookalike
Of someone you used to love?
Someone you used to love
So dark
How did something so sweet tear us apart?
Oh, on a sinking ship with a heavy heart
How did we get so dark?
Nobody warned you
The tables would turn
I could have told you
Everything you’ve learnt
Would burn to dust
Now there’s no one you can trust
Just someone you used to love
Someone you used to love
So dark
How did something so sweet tear us apart?
Oh, on a sinking ship with a heavy heart
How did we get so dark?
How’d we get so dark?
About Royal Blood
Brighton duo Royal Blood comprising drummer Ben Thatcher and bassist/vocalist Mike Kerr formed at the beginning of 2013. They quickly made their presence known, with pounding drums and heavily distorted bass guitar defining characteristics of their ferocious blues-rock sound. The band gained many plaudits early in their career, touring with the likes of Arctic Monkeys, Iggy Pop and Foo Fighters, before going on to win Best British Group at the Brits in 2015 receiving their trophy from their musical hero and admirer Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page.
Their catalogue boasts the Mercury Prize nominated self-titled debut album released in 2014 that spawned hits such as "Out of the Black, "Little Monster:, "Come On Over" and "Figure it Out", as well as their second successive UK number one album "How Did We Get So Dark?" released in 2017 which featured "Lights Out" and "I Only Lie When I Love You".

Yeah
the old guy looks badass tho
he is grandfather mazay from ru Folklore
I think its Tom Araya from slayer....
It's a white Danny Trejo.
@@joeyquiroz5192 I was gonna say that until I read yours! Well done
To me he looks like Antonio Banderas.
I realized Mike's jacket says "I only lie when i love you"
cool
The money i would give for that leather jacket...
@@ahippobottomus1538 You don't have to give money, just give him a white bunny rabbit.
What the fuck
This is a masterpiece
I've listened to it probably a hundred times. I found it and was like "Oh, shit, this is *the* song."
absolutely
film or track?
It's WAY too short. I play it 2 or 3 times to get my fix before I move on to the rest of my Playlist
This is the perfect mix between badass and mindfuck that I've come to love about the music videos
LiTAQ it's got nothing to do with mine f*** you have no idea what you're talking about it's just stupid ass cliche b******* so you must be living under a rock
V G You'd look a lot tougher if you didn't censor your own curse words.
V G you again... If you don't like Royal Blood then *WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU WATCHING ALL THEIR VIDEOS AND GIVING THEM MORE VIEWS?*
V G Who in the hell do you listen to, then?
wiggledix bubsy probably Steps.
Everyone is coming up with deep meanings to the video. And I'm just here thinking "this is what happens to Doomguy when demons DON'T invade"
NEEDbacon OH MY GOD YES I LOVE YOU
I just thought it was a friendly that turned dark lol
Yeah, but which one is Doomguy?
@@zebbediahjones5062 old guy I think
Well... After the invasion ended the same thing happaned to him indeed. LOL
That riff at the end... the best Muse riff that Muse never wrote.
Muse wrote this riff?
@@louis.Gerard neh, he's Saying that it sounds so muse

How the fuck did someone even come up with this idea???
Snehal Mane drugs
It’s mike and Ben, how could they not come up with this
There's is no evidence that Mike and Ben came up with this
Produced by Warner Brothers guys
Same guy who come up with the idea for Lights Out probably
#milkmosh
"Any ideas for the new video?"
"Let's glue some rabbits on top of a car"
"Cool!"
These bunnies have no idea wtf is happening.

It simple story about old man Mazay, who every spring flooding go to the woods and helping wild animals survive.
This is a small story which kids in Russia read when they studies in first or second grade (don't remember exactly, because for me it was a long long time ago).

This album is really growing on me
Emperor Palpamemes what the fuck is wrong with you
I've loved it from the start
Same I wasn't too keen on a few songs but now I like it all, a lot
It's already grown on me.Although, I have listened to it religiously for the past few months in preparation for their tour.
Dew itt!!
Emperor Palpamemes fancy seeing you here! What happened to the quality memes?
Man I don't remember the Wallace and Gromit movie being this dark
You absolute legend 😂😂😂
Yeah I was wondering how did it get so dark?
How did it manage to black? Wait, that's not right... How'd Wallace get so... no... how'd we get this shade? No... wait... I can do it... there's a clever pun in here somewhere.... I can do it....... give me a minute....

With royal blood songs
Whats with Royal Bloods obsession with rabbits...they had a rabbit in their other video as well haha
You don't like Rabbits?
los conejos son adorables🐰🐰
I’m hoping for the “bunny girls” to appear anytime soon on a video!
cheap labour :D
Eberymanhybrid
I love how this bands visuals always match the sound so well. Cage the elephant is the only other band that also seems to do it this well.
David Rivera Agree and add franz ferdinand too. Really gem in modern rock
Ben Pantera I’ll make sure to check that out. Thanks for the tip
David Rivera no problem man you can start from love illumination,jeremy fraser or evil eye. Great rock song and quite interesting dark element in music video like royal blood and cage the elephant.
Cage The Elephant are fckin amazing. Especially in concert
are you forgetting Muse?
I love how the song kicks in with the gunshot....perfectly timed...this is just fucking beautiful
TheTeleporter101 that’s called editing my friend the songs aim wasn’t to do it
@@benshorthouse2979 Christ, it took 11 months for someone to reply with that...
You have to admire this band as a two piece. Ben's drumwork at the end of this track is epic.

[Verse 1]
I saw it coming

You started running
Then everything turned cold
How did I become a lookalike
Of someone you used to love?

So dark

Oh, on a sinking ship with a heavy heart
Ooohhh
How did we get so dark?
[Verse 2]
Nobody warned you
The tables would turn
And I could have told you

Now there's no one you can trust
Just someone you used to love

Ummm..
So, he is going around collecting bunnies by shooting people and driving around with them on his car.
How did they get so dark?
I honestly don't know, it's all kinda "Out of the black" for me.
UndeadP0WER I think rabbits are representing *SOULS*
Best idea I have heard yet.
"Figure It Out", man
PurplePeopleEaters "Look like you know".... "You can be so cruel"....
The next single should be "Sleep". Best song in the album by far
Cristian Ojeda 100% agree mate
I'm hoping for Hole In Your Heart. It's the best one imo
This, hole in your heart and sleep are the three best imo
Don't tell! ;)
That’s not how singles work, you’re thinking of the words “music” and “video”
This song has a queens of the stone age vibe to it !
was just thinking the car chase was very QoTSA
Both the music (can't pin The song yet) of QOTSA and video (if I had a tail)
All of their songs do. They're literally a QOTSA ripoff
@@imeowmeowkat but it’s better than qotsa
@@imeowmeowkatNah. They sound better. A lot of their songs have a different, bassier sound. Love QOTSA but Royal Blood are better imo
I haven't found a new band like this in a long time. I am more of a 90s grunge/alternative type of guy, but these guys are amazing.
NcW OMEGA Highly suspect is also amazing if you haven’t heard them.
Check out The Chats and Ghost
Check out Bad Flower
I second both Highly Suspect and Badflower. Haven't yet heard the other one that was mentioned.. I'd also suggest Cleopatrick, The Blue Stones, Death from Above 1979, and Black Pistol Fire.
@@zacharybailey4580 wow, we are on the same page here!
Royal Blood always has the best videos
I’ve never been more confused in my life
Song is about a breakup due to substance abuse. The man running around collecting rabbits is a junkie. He'll go to any lengths to get what he wants... even murder.
@@sloshed-rat it’s been 5 years, I don’t even remember what I was confused about
This track must be very hard to perform live, what with the vocals and the music being in different time signatures, i.e. not syncing, toward the end. I admire artists who can play an instrument and sing simultaneously - I can't - and if Mike Kerr can sing in one time signature and play in another simultaneously, he is a truly miraculous human being indeed 😮
They'll have buttons on a laptop somewhere - you couldn't perform this live at this quality without some help.❤
Ого, экранизация рассказа "Дедушка Мазай и зайцы" выглядит просто восхитительно.
When you rlly love rabbits
When Mike Kerr and Ben Thatcher showed up at 1:38 it just made the video go completely badass
That OUTRO! That last CHORD! That last SOUND... So powerfull! I love it. I always smiling at the end of this song.
"Taking rock into a new realm.”-Jimmy Page.
This is the song of the year for me. I'm living this. I know the tale he is telling cos i am currently under its spell. This inspires me to write better music. Its our duty. Rock and roll owes us nothing. We owe it everything.Few bands can touch this nor have the authenticity to pull it off. If the guitarist from a little band called Led Zeppelin is saying you are quite good...well you are just crushing it at this rock business.
#thisistheprogram
Dude I feel the same way, very well put, these guys are the first true rock stars the culture has seen in many years, and in my humble opinion, some of the best ever. I don't think even Royal Blood themselves recognize how long and how badly the rock and roll community needed something like this, they just made rock & roll desirable to the masses once again . The standards have been raised, let's fucking be a part of this revolution!
Cocaine is a hell of a drug
Jofu 21 lol
lmaooo
Jofu 21 it shore is

All too cool.

The guitars building up at the end are the best imo

JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJJ nice.
Out of the rabbit hole
Little rabbit
Out of the hat
You forgot Rabbitless (Careless)
Mind. Fucked.
I love it.
This is what you call a badass video ☠
Very interesting video to an absolutely fantastic song. As soon as the tune was originally released, I just had to cover it.
If any of you drummers out there want to learn this song, I've got a downloadable transcription available in PDF-format!
Maximiliam Andersson I'll take that pdf please?
Maximiliam Andersson nice
spaaaaaam , but good spam;)
I've pretty much learned it but I could do with the PDF to get the finer details

How did we get so RABBITS
?

||@_@|| DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
good joke bruv.
Quick breeding that’s how
I fucking love this band EVERY SONG IS SO GOOD not one I dislike
First they turn the lights out, then stuck in limbo and trying to figure it out how did we get so dark.. Finally they're getting out of the black into oblivion.
This duo is brilliant!
I hope Mike and Ben are proud of this song, it’s bad-ass, it’s amazing, and it teaches a lesson.
Anyone else saw the 'i only lie when i love you' on the back of mike's jacket?
well.. i think almost everyone sees that
One for the road
Yh

And then I die a tragic death
What? Royal blood sounding like royal blood? Mind=blown
nahh
Death from above 1979 rang...... they want their entire act back ;-)
for some reason the steering wheel on the right side makes this even *more* badass

"The eyehole man from Rick and Morty but with rabbits."
"Riiight. But what does that have to do with-"
"But then RB come along and try to take the rabbits."
"Yeah but why does-"
"Then they have a Mad Max style car chase."
"Where is this-"
"Then some cult comes along and takes the rabbits."
"Oh that makes sense."
finally someone who understands, i thought i was alone for a moment.

Goddamn I want that "I Only Lie When I Love You" leather jacket so much
2:19 That riff.
This songs lyrics are literally my life right now... I love it!!! ❤
Such a badass band. I was lucky enough to see them live. It was one of those concerts where none of my friends wanted to go/could afford it (I'm in high school so most people are broke) so I just went by myself. Didn't affect my enjoyment in the slightest. It was such an amazing concert.
At first i though that the old man might have represented the grim reaper and the rabbits were metaphors for souls, but then mike and ben showed up and know i have no clue what this means
Some seem to go with the rabbits symbolizing "power" or "luck" and he's taking it from other people to make it his own, and the two that have as much as he does (seem to) chase him down to take his, but leave him stranded where 'people' who can take his power/luck away can get to him easily and... well, to begin with, it seems people who lose their rabbits end up dead (either by giving them up or being killed for them), so when he doesn't have any left, he's also dead.
Now not know.
"We just killed death"
Guy is the grim reaper. Rabbits are people's soul. Shows how people are afraid of death but women are really the ones who take your soul and will to live. See the second car run when the women showed up?
I’m listening to every Royal Blood song until the new single “Troubles Coming” is released 🤘🔥
Nice
guess you're done now
1966 Pontiac GTO what a beautyful car!
You are the comment that I was looking for, thanks.
@@daza5835 SAME this is the reason I fell in love with old cars lmaoo im 16 and currently looking for a dodge charger 1974 model lmaoo
The GTO is gorgeous, but I have more questions about that Parisienne.
Theory: The rabbits are magical rabbits, whose power can only be released by people. The guy in the car initially killed one of the rabbit's keepers from behind, so they couldn't use the rabbit's powers. Eventually, he had enough rabbits that people couldn't resist, except for Royal Blood, who had as many rabbits as he did. The car stopped working because the women were the rabbit's witch brethren, who were able to harness the rabbit's powers better than anyone else, and thus overpower the bad guy. When they arrived, Royal Blood realised they weren't needed anymore, and so departed.
Yes, I do have a lot of spare time. No, I don't do drugs.
if you do drugs, I dont judge, but being high helps this make sense
I don't do drugs, I'm just a rather unusual fellow. But yes, I would imagine being high helps a lot of things make sense.
Do you major in literature?
LMBO!!! As good as any!
Music actually, though I don't do too badly with creative writing, thank you :)
Well this came Out of the black!
also just got the Call of Duty WW2 advert with the royal blood music before this video what a coincidence
Daniel Green i know someone that’s got the same exact name as you first and last name lol 😂
do you now he must be a cool guy
I want to tell you my personal interpretation of this video.
"In philosophy the figure of the rabbit symbolizes the search"
The symbol of the white rabbit is also used in Alice in Wonderland, Matrix, Donnie Darko and more...
In this video the RABBITS represents the AMBITIONS that exists in every man.
The OLD MAN is a sort of THIEF OF AMBITION ( look at the rabbit paw in his car 0:29 )
he generally kills every man that he found, except for one man:
that is so poor of ambition, because he is working in a factory alone in the night and he hates his life, so: "take my rabbit, my life is already finished" ( 1:18 )
Then the boys arrive and they also have a lot of rabbits on their car, but they kill not anybody to bring the rabbit there, they probably have a lot of ambition, and they try to stop the old man that kills to get them.
The pursuit begins and each cars have the same destination (the rabbit hole 3:33)
that is the place where every ambition achieve, the white rabbits den.
On this road there are a lot of dangers, in fact coming from behind the hills with a carrot in their hands ( 2:37 ) arrives the girls :)
the old man distract himself to watch the girls ( 2:50 ) and he can not run away,
Ben and Mike that for this special day wear a very cool jacket ( 3:27 ) they do not distract themselves and now finally enter in the rabbit hole.
if you notice anything alse write it in the comment :)
THE
BEST
VIDEO
EVER.
hmm
you nailed it though...
How does the homeless guy have "ambition" if that's really the symbolism...
The old guy is only killing or stealing persons of his own generation, good persons, Royal Blood is only killing persons of his own generation, bad persons, till they run into.
wow, amazing interpretation
A song that starts with a gun shot is a song for me. like genius move
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON
Royal Blood - How Did We Get So Dark? (Official Video)
JzanderN oh I like it. it explains everything
you know I feel like they won't stop cause there's some fuckery in every goddamn video
Check out the video for no one knows or for the less I know the better by qotsa and tame impala. I guess they've not only taken musical inspiration from qotsa😀
Sir my friends agree with you
*Royal Blood - “How Did We Get So Dark?"*
I saw it coming
Like the shadow on the wall
You started running
When everything turned cold
How did I
Become a lookalike
Of someone you used to love?
Someone you used to love
So dark
How did something so sweet tear us apart?
Oh
On a sinking ship with a heavy heart

Would burn to dust

Oh

How did we get so dark?
How'd we get so dark? [x17]

Você Tem Razão! Thanks!!!
First I was like, awesome, thanks man. Then I saw the descriptions and the lyrics are literally in there .. so thanks for the copy paste ?
I thought they said elctrolite
That is my favourite group now 😂😂
This song never gets old. I love bunnies, so this is my favorite video! Please come back soon to Mexico!
Made my day
1:41 I only lie when i love you.
King Stannis i noticed that too and i really want it lol
"Hello I'd like to place an order for, maybe, about 50 albino rabbits?"
"Okay, could I ask why you'd need that many?"
"Uuuh. Y'know. Stuff."
I like how there wasn't a second of hesitation before the gun shot.
Anyone here in 2020 during the quarantine
And hearing this after their new single released going on a royal blood marathon
Since they’ve been gone for 3 years
Ps this should also be in a NHL soundtrack
Música que demonstra muito bem a qualidade dessa dupla, no momento não escutei nada no cenário do rock mundial que seja tão original e vibrante como Royal Blood e essa música. Vocês são incríveis.
"IF IT IS IMPORTANT TO YOU, YOU WILL FIND A WAY, IF NOT, YOU WILL FIND AN EXCUSE"
Honestly RB has the best music videos ever
2:36 El mejor riff de la historia de la humanidad.
This video makes no sense and I have no idea what’s going on. I love it.
I mainly listen to the song mainly the bass guitar and drums because I play both instruments
I LOVE the way how he sings 'How did something so sweet tear us apart?'
if they are selling "I only lie when I love you" jackets when I see them, then they can shut up and take my money
Holy shit this is so deep and genius!
Katarina Du Couteau for Noxus what does it mean?
1:30 anybody sees Reservoir Dogs reference? Mr white above Mr pink lying on the ground, then camera goes back , and we get to see the back of Mr blonde
OMG TOTALLY
Such a fantastic movie, I’m a Tarantino fanatic, I can’t believe I missed that reference
That riff might be one of the greatest ever...
juuuuuuust goin' give that replay a button a royal ol' push
2:28 Dat Face
Just love how much Ben is enjoying that machine gun!
Seth Rogen
Basically the movie 'In Time', just with rabbits
One of the best song/video masterpieces ever made
Greatest movie trailer I've ever seen in my life
This is a work of art. I am officially in love with this song and the band. This is truly a masterpiece.😍
this band just gets better and better
Yeah but I hope we get more new bands, this and Greta Van Fleet are the only new good rock bands now XD
Tricko ha I hadn't heard of greta van fleet before just listened to some of there songs after you mentioned it and there good thanks for the recommendation and yeah I hope some more good bands Like this start popping up but unfortunately with the rise in popularity of lower quality music I kinda doubt it
Nothing more badass than a couple of dudes fighting/high-speed chasing for another dude's rabbits
Brutal beardy men, big guns and oldschool black cars chase - just enough for a good rock music video
NEVER CLICKED SO FAST IN MY LIFE
Sábado o campo pequeno vai abaixo caralhoooooooooooooooo!!!
Le Roger sim!!!!
Mariana Duarte até me arrepio todo só de pensar... no alive foi brutalíssimo!!!!
Le Roger no alive foram fantásticos e sem dúvida os melhores do primeiro dia, tenho grandes expectativas para sábado!!!
Mariana Duarte completamente... e espero que toquem esta música, para mim é das melhores do novo álbum
Royal Fucking Blood!
How did somethin' so sweet tear us apart?
It's almost like it's two songs within the one.
I love the rhythmic choices for the chanting at the end, I love the jamming at the end, and this entire music video is weird but awesome.
Where Are You Now? Please!!!
Finally!!!
Down the rabbit hole.
Royal blood. Heros to New Zealand albinos everywhere.
Royal Blood rocks again !!!
I guess Mike and Ben aren't fans of Slayer then.
Lol, I thought Tom Araya was gonna start singing something
Is that actually tom araya?
Ian Prieto i don't think so just thought it was funny because the rabbit guy looks like him
I need an Album of them before the end of the Year to be Happy.
I've just become addicted to Royal Blood...
