"You've just been singing about girls. What do you know about girls?"

[asma]

Earlier in the song I used the term "galvanistic, " and galvanism is the concept, uh, the obsolete scientific theory that there is a kind of electricity flowing through our bloodstreams, and that was our life force. I used the term because I came across it in Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein", and that book is sort of an exploration of the theme of creating a character or making up a person. So I used the term "galvanistic" to allude to that book as a sort of symbol of how I, like, created you as a character, by pretending that I know a lot more about you than I actually do, and also to refer to the fact that I've fall—fallen in love with the characters you've created in, uh, your body of work. This is the part of the song where I start to regret writing it

Thom Yorke vs Will Toledo dance battle

[Peter-csis]

honestly the people that don't understand that car seat headrest loves to remake songs in totally different ways baffle me. he's been doing remakes since starving while living. i understand if it's not your cup of tea, but don't be surprised by such a change. will's flexibility is one of his greatest strengths as an artist and even if you don't like it, you should still be able to respect that

[zork]

i just realized something awesome about this music video. it's stereoscopic. you're supposed to look at it from a bit of a distance and cross your eyes so the left and right sections overlap. it becomes a whole different experience if you do that.

[ChocolateFilledGamer]

Seeing Will in professional makeup and wardrobe wrong but right?

[ameerguitar]

What is galvanism anyway
If only he had explained it in the middle of the song

[TheMrJay]

Love the lo-fi charm of the original, love the polished energy of this. Both can exist in their own worlds, that's cool.

[BansheeNeet]

I swear to god will's legs are like in the muppets when they have to show one of the muppets' walking while their legs are visible

[toothlessthenightfury]

Nothing can beat Will's galvanizing dancing at 1:27

[Nokitron]

My boy being charming and making me gay as usual.

"And you may tell yourself, that you're the embodiment of David Byrne..."

[gabsprado]

What if we kissed
😶in the uncanny valley?😶

[TheCrazyNb]

you can tell from the footage this is originally how he wanted it to sound like

[pavlovesdog]

god this song is so powerful?? it always puts me in such a good mood every time i listen to it and kinda reminds me what its like to be in love and what it can be like when you give yourself to someone who never shows you the real them, their inhuman. this seriously gives me such a rush. and cue the moshy dance session in my bedroom, , ,

*5 years later: this is the part of the song where i regret writing it

[kxxm]

I fucking love the piece of synth at the chorus riff so much that I cant explain it with words

[victoriarglez]

Will Toledo dancing is everything I need in life.

[srishtiojha]

the dancing and leg shots seem like a (very) updated version of that one something soon dance mv

[fleurpvnk]

*but what about galvanism and frankenstein, will?!*

[BottegaVenetaa]

Good video, Will! The minute long rant about Sam Ray over the footage of a lifelike doll being stabbed towards the end was unsettling though. But besides that, keep up the good work!
