This is perfect.

I always come to this video from time to time. To me it's like a destroyed world where everyone seem resigned or scared. But there's a person willingly facing hardship, fears, ego, sort of like a death of the self. Someone who knows deep down that they have to go through difficult situations and keep pushing, in order to learn, grow and become who they're really meant to be, their true nature: a light being. I love how at the end somebody who was looking from afar gets inspired by that transformation and decides to do it too, showing how only one person can still make a difference and change the trajectory.

Is this where the feels are? I'm looking for feels.

Definitely a metaphor for life/love. We dress ourselves up to hide things we may not like but if we walk through the darkness towards the light, our true selves will persevere and we will be “stripped naked”, only to realize that we are /were the light all along.

Had to watch this a second time to realize that the light she’s fighting to get to is another person. And while shes trying to reach the “light” but when she realizes that the lights inside her she stops trying to reach it I personally believe it’s a metaphor that you can’t go looking for your happiness from others and that it can only come from your self

This collaboration is exactly what my body mind and soul needed in this trash year. Thank you guys.

This song appeared in the moment when I had to end relationship with someone I loved half my live, but was so toxic, that put me in depression. It helped me to fight for my own happiness again.

It’s like she’s been holding onto the darkness for so long but when she finally accepts herself for being the light that she naturally is she is able to press through any hardship with ease! At least that what I took from the video anyway haha :)

This video portrays about everyone & their darkness in our subconscious mindset. Anyone with having dark feelings such as depression, anxiety, fear, etc. Come across hiding in the shadows. But when a struck of light such as love, kindness, & compassion; we tend to feel it very strongly to the point it's an overwhelming hurricane/typhoon until we realize we must accept those feelings in order to give us hope on moving forward. A very metaphoric music video that gives such vibes. Well done BRONSON & ODESZA 🤙

Warning: video may contain tons of feels

"Adversity is like a strong wind. It tears away from us all but the things that cannot be torn, so that we see ourselves as we really are." -Arthur Golden

Always show your feelings, express your emotions, be honest with your heart Give love even if u are afraid about the answer

this is deep.... honestly just watching her push through, fall down, get back up, never giving up. when she saw the light inside herself.. nothing is stopping her from letting go, and becoming free.

odesza is back ❤️❤️

I come back to this music video whenever my heart needs a loving reminder from within. I also love reading the comments on what the interpretation is. This video does an awesome job of nailing down this significance while maintaining an open structure for the visual and lyrical invitation. Paired with the audio feeling, this music video is like a crescendo of overcoming. For myself, when I watch and listen to this, I can't help but find the gold and black contrast meaning something along the lines of "identity". Perhaps the gold is what we carry with us that we value and the black is what we perceive to be our baggage. We find this "cloak" (mask) to be a necessity, and continue braving the light of the chaos. I find it interesting that the flashes of light are also what knocks them down when confronted. They crawl onwards while this cloak flashes between gold and black in the wake of whatever force is present. It is clear that there is some sort of struggle that must be met with the determination that not all possess (in that moment). With each defiant step towards the light, some part of this cloak breaks away, revealing light from within. To me, this inner light translates as capability, calmness, peace, and acceptance, and perseverance. Perseverance to keep getting up and not go back into hiding when it starts to push back. Acceptance in shedding not only our baggage but our ownership of accomplishments that we use to calibrate our perceived meaning in the world. Peace in knowing the very light that we are fighting against is part of us and is not to be feared when this fact is accepted and allowed. Calmness in being self originated. And last, of all, the ripple effect that we have upon each other. Every single being in this is implied to be able to accomplish this grand inner light and steadfast footing. All in all, we just have to go for it! Get up when knocked down, even when it feels we are being stripped. That cloak might just be the weight that we hold so dear and yet is what is holding us back. And so we continue, one after another, shedding and then embracing

what your grandpa claims he had to go through to get to school

The transition from foundation to heart attack on the album is masterclass

i love all the people trying to decipher the video’s meaning. I feel like the ending shows the inspiration we pull from other people or our peers when we watch them find their own happiness from within. We all want to be happy we just don’t know how.

The way I see it is I think the person is hiding from their strong feelings for someone. They are covered in a shield of lies. I think the gold pieces are the truth starting to come through. They try to face their feelings but the only way to do that is to shed the lies and fully embrace the truth. This love is so strong that I can no longer hide it. I will no longer follow along with being your friend. There is a chance our friendship will end, but what does it matter when the pain of holding it in is so unbearable?

how does this not have over a million views? this is a masterpiece.

I've listened to this song like a 1000 times..still finding it amazing like the first time 💘 this is perfect 💞

Started this song with chills and then came the tears lmao

I am going through a breakup, and this song just reminded me that I need to love myself. The relationship was toxic, and I always made excuses for a person who only loved me on their terms. I deserve better.

Just Keep Going. You will get there, every time you face adversity and keep going (even if you stumble) you are setting an example for those around you. There is gold in you. Give your problems to God, he is with you when you're facing a difficult time 'For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light.' Ephesians 5:8 (NIV)

Love how many people interpret this with different perspectives, using their values to see an metaphor. Love this comment section

Nba 2k22! Love when this song comes on :)

Who the hell is cutting onions!!! 😭 this has me in my feels 😔

He'll yeah.👏🏼 This track is great, the video speaks volumes for Spiritual Awakening, and your Soul shining out .

Bro I'm not ready for the emotions lmao

my favorite song ever

I legit cried first time watching this. Incredible.

Can't stop playing this song and Hidden Face - Alive 🔥🔥🔥

Its self reflection, it speaks volumes of the ability we as humans have, the strength we hold even after so much we have been through, the warrior who doesn't give up, picks up the sword n is back again on his feet, pushing every limit which he wasn't even aware off, struggling to break through, eventually not needing the light anymore, relying on oneself, coz you as an individual become the "Light" and it breaks free your mind, it reflects the amount of potential your own mind & soul can stretch too & you make a difference coz there are others who follow ur light your guidance to reflect into their darkness 💭💫

That quiet build up with just the vocals, god the feels!

My personal interpretation and why I love this. The “love” isn’t really an individual it’s being an empath, and that subsequently makes you depressed and pursue/help the wrong things a lot of times. You fight because you see the good in all things even in the darkest of places. Your light attracts narcissistics and they eventually burn out your light. Making you second guess yourself and feel like you’re nothing and won’t amount to anything. So after they use you, you are ashamed of yourself and cloak yourself away. You finally find the light and accept yourself. The journey to get your light back will be hard but in the end you’re stronger. You are now a cap level tank and god help those who try to oppose you or attack those precious few you hold dear. Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

Im hoping that one day, i get to see odesza in a concert together with my future love. It's gonna take a while but I'm never gonna lose hope.

I feel like it's showing... That's she's going through a dark time in her life and she's been staying strong for so long. That she's finally ready to break free... and find the light again (herself). She realizes she's stronger than she knows and makes it.

My body is ready

This is connection with the universe. Stunning

You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden; Nor do they light a candle and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand; And it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men.

Hearing this live was amazing at ODESZA's concert last year at the Kia Forum 🙌 especially when it transitioned to Late Night

I can play this anytime. That's it, nothing else to it.

I always seem to come back to this video and get it on so many levels. You keep holding onto everything you think is important and find resistance no matter how hard you cling to it. Only when you let go can you walk through the shit. You are no longer phased by anything when you are simply just you. Whatever that is. The person hiding can now see it’s safe to just let go too. It’s a story of love if you can get past the fear.

This song is goated..... first heard this on nba 2k22 now I'm hooked!!!! The connection with the song the vibe the feeling!!!!!

Art, definition:

This visually represents my push towards success and happiness in my life. Life throws everything it can but you still push, with everything you have, to make the next step. Through the bullshit and the disappointment.

dang... so much symbolism in this. love it

When you got a mad crush but can't confess... in my case sadly it was over before it began. Someday, someone, somewhere.

The truth shall set you free.

This is so awesome! The true spiritual ascension journey defined. 🌞🌚💜🌱🦋🐢🐳🐉 🍄🌹

I am so HYPED for the album. This is so F*ing amazing

To me represents self love we go through life thinking we need that light from outside when it has been inside of us all along. Pain transforms into light and inspires you to find it.

Bravo on the video, it’s poignant and artistic . I love how the video really compliments the song . It helps to elevate the feeling of the song , Instead of a distraction .

I ike the different interpretations. I've been loving this since it came out & for me it's literal & simple: She's obsessed & chasing a relationship that she knows is imposible and will most likely never happen. But she can't not; she can't stop. She'll keep going against anything; even when it strips her to the bone, to her most basic self. She will survive it & still come back and try again. Her howls of longing and pain are haunting.

This is how God breaks us down so we can find our true light. 💖

this is so sick

I seriously can't believe there is only 388.154 views... This song is epic.

our darkness keeps us afraid but if we can just try maybe one day we can be the light that we were meant to be.

3.00 am and now I'm going crazy with the feels, someone please please please anybody suggest me more gems likes this

Lau.ra is such an amazing artist. Her music is masculine and feminine at the same time. She is so talented.

I come back to this video time efter time. Each time it's an other aspect that seems to be more important than all the others. Todays favorit is: what does it matter in the end... when I'm in an uppsving good mood it means: do it right from the start to the end, after a year or so its no longer important how your struggling engagement felt, its the result that counts. Something is still in the world and that something tells a story about you who participated in creating it.

Excellent song, I am going to share it with all my friends!!! It deserves at least 1 million views!!

This deserves way more appreciation

Once i get inside a uber in Paris, and this music was the first one to play, this ride was so random but still remarkable. I felt like I was in the right place at the right moment. I felt like if was in a vídeo clip, and so damm lucky for discovering that song and group. Thanks Universe.

Magnifique !!!

What an awesome vid!!! Let go, be the light!

The name of this song is too fitting for this season of Life, Heart Attack

How did I know this would make me cry...? Love it guys. Thanks for making art.

One of the best releases this year. Period

Non de zeus !!!!! Cette video est énorme. Un grand bravo.

One of the best songs and videos I have ever heard, it puts me in mind of Massive Attack; it is that great. The abstract, flailing post-human CGI video, the hypermodern production by the brilliant lau.ra and underneath it all, a soulful, melancholy thing of beauty and a metaphor for life’s struggles. I find it incredibly moving. As for ‘Wicked’.... by lau.ra... wow! So what’s the rest of the BRONSON album like?

BRONSON - HEART ATTACK (feat. lau.ra) (lyrics/paroles): [Verse: lau.ra] I've been patient But I won't follow 'Cause I don't wanna be your friend Why does it matter in the end? I want a little bit of lightning No, I don't wanna be your friend 'Cause these feelings are violent [Chorus: lau.ra] This love's a heart attack This love's a heart attack This love's a heart attack [Verse: lau.ra] See, I've been patient But I won't follow 'Cause I don't wanna be your friend Why does it matter if it ends? I want a little bit of lightning No, I don't wanna be your friend I want a little bit of lightning No, I don't wanna be your friend I want a little bit of lightning Why does it matter if it ends? But I don't wanna live in silence Why does it matter in the end? I want a little bit of lightning No, I don't wanna be your friend Because these feelings are violent Why does it matter in the end? [Chorus: lau.ra] This love's a heart attack This love's a heart attack This love's a heart attack This love's a heart attack [Post-Chorus: lau.ra] This love's a heart attack And no, I won't go back (Yeah) This love's a heart attack (Oh) This love's a heart attack (Oh, you) [Outro: lau.ra] Why does it matter anyway Why does it matter in the end? Why does it matter anyway Why does it matter in the end? [this thumps a heart attack 💔]

Just discovered this music gem Just PERFECT !!!

this video makes me tearbend & the ending how she influenced others to do it 😭 I LOVE YOU GUYS 4EVERRRRR ❤️‍🔥

Something good,never goona die🇲🇿

I already loved the song. The video was so empowering!!! She gave up the resistance, found her true self through the struggle and became the light. 💖💫

This gives my soul goosebumps 🔥🔥🔥

Basically a metaphor for fighting against and overcoming anxiety so that one can finally enjoy experience true life

This represents so much of our way of life, get rid of your unnecessary burdens, what does it matter in the end? Sounds difficult, but it is necessary to live real life and prevent you from having a heart attack.

such a nice tune! CONGRATS!!!

What a stunningly beautiful music video paired with music that could only be described as divine. Thank you!!

Yo this beat, the electric current that runs through you when you hear it, you can't turn it off but up . Amazing song 🎵

ngl the music video looks like an accurate depiction of what its like to go to San Francisco beach on a windy day

this is incredible, its what ever you want it to be.

I've never felt this warmth and calmness before. This song is the real drug.

Definitely giving me Journey(the video game) Vibes!!!

Wow. Just an amazing cinematic journey. So much power and love in Odesza.

odesza going in the right direction. DANG.

Here I am, analyzing this video as much as possible, this is what I get from it: Sometimes, the things we think are beautiful hide our true beauty. Those things may hold us down and hold us back from what is truly beautiful. They could also be things you believe you need, but without it you might shine brighter than you thought you could. It may be hard getting rid of those affections, but when you do you will see the light within. And, along that journey, you might inspire someone. I know I have some dirty rags I need to let go off in order to shine. Its gonna be hard, but I have to try.

This video has been my year. Keep your head up, keep praying, keep going. Find your light, and others will follow.

Deserves a grammy nomination

Lyrics: ------------------------------ I've been patient But I won't follow Cause I don't wanna be your friend What does it matter in the end I want a little bit of lightnin' No I don't wanna be your friend Cause these feelings are a violence This love's a heart attack (3x) See I've been patient But I won't follow Cause I don't wanna be your friend What does it matter if it ends I want a little bit of lightnin' No I don't wanna be your friend (2x) I want a little bit of lightnin' What does it matter if it ends but I don't wanna live in silence What does it matter in the end I want a little bit of lightning No I don't wanna be your friend Because these feelings are a violence What does it matter in the end This love's a heart attack (5x) And I walk over it This love's a heart attack (2x) After the middle of the end What does it matter in the end After the murder in your way What does it matter in the end (Please let me know If I messed up any of the lyrics. I will edit)

This is a quarantine vibe I can dig. This collab is gonna go viral

When I first saw this, it immediately struck me with Nier Automata vibes... such a great song and awesome video.

I listened to this whole album while trippin on my couch alone, and it was amazing!!!!

Absolutely incredible cinematics + an amazing song = BRONSON

I swear this has been In my head for weeks now! This shit is fire 🔥

One of the best thing happened in 2k20

i loved this on the radio and i was like who the hell is bronson! now i find out its a project from odesza and golden features who i love so of course i love this! need more bronson tracks!!

The implementation from the song to the video is so perfect! A big fat respect to the creator! It takes a mass of fantasy for this solution. Giving the person a suit of good/golden and bad times and compromises she was holding on to, that was the only way keeping her there. Realizing u r the only person that can make u whole. My interpretation: I guess the wind is the braking up argumentation that is uncovering the golden times ("but don´t u remember what we have?" buhuuuhuu) while the flying parts are the verbal dirt, but holding on to the good/golden times is also holding on to the bad times, shown by the suit that is made like two sides of the same medal. So, bravo! Very artful! Love it!
