[Metric] - Wanderlust

'what if' s and 'what could have' s

I do not own the song nor the art.
The music has been slowed, bass adjusted, then reverbed to fit my taste.
The Original Video was edited to visualize how I felt while listening to the song.

It's kinda disappointing that I have all these scenes envisioned in my head but I lack the skill of making the scene and the music myself.

HD Remaster (It doesnt feel the same...):
No reverb:

This one hurts so bad.
The pain of regretting the life you never had never gets easier, does it?

[Newnawn]

Nostalgia is a drug that some people get addicted to.
Guys, anyone can experience this kind of stuff, just because you're out of high school or college or uni doesn't mean that you're life is over, there's more than enough time to experience hazy summer nights with someone else.

[yuanyuanxi]

I'm gonna be honest. I don't know how much longer I can go like this.

[MrRaui]

I like how on its own this video is about two people who felt out of place so they went and had fun in their own way. There's something about the spontaneity of it and deciding everything as they go along that makes me both happy and sad, for some reason.

[achield]

im not gonna sugar coat it. i dont know how many "it is what it is" i have left in me

[elijahpelito]

"Will there ever be a place 4 u and me?"

This line just hit reaaal hard

3:19 This is the frame that hurts.
She will never know how special this night was for you. She had fun; You got to know what fun actually is.

It will forever haunt you to know that she doesn't think about that night everyday like you do.

Maybe if you asked her to stay...

[TownerHijet]

It reminds me of the false happy memories of the girlfriend I never had

[skinkill]

It's been 5 years and I still miss her.

[samuraibeatzz]

Had a night just like this before with someone special. One big adventure at night just the two of us cruising around Tokyo. Sometimes I still dream about it. I truly never wanted to go home. Home was with her. By her side.

[dovahkitsune]

I dont know which hurts more, this or Lost Kitten :...)

[deeky]

Ngl the more I watch the more fitting the music becomes, and the better it gets

[pawsly]

Somewhere out there is someone who if you were to just meet them; would become the most important person in your life. Love, frendship, a soulmate - everything you would do would revolve around eachother and you couldn't live apart from one another. Even if you wandered the world for the rest of your life, the two of you will never meet... they just exist out there.

The fact they even exist is bittersweet in a way and that's how this video makes me feel.

[emilianom.]

Nothing hurts more than the idea of “what could’ve been”

The thought that maybe in some different universe everything worked out and how the people you love the most are still by your side.

The idea that maybe, just maybe, everything could go back to how it once was.

However time does not forgive and slowly but surely those sweet emotions that we once took for granted will leave if behind until they are nothing more than whisper in the wind.

I wish I could’ve fixed everything with my friends, I loved them so much, they made me feel like life truly was wonderful, nothing compares to those times, it hurt when they got away because of my mistakes, it hurt even more when the same people I loved so dearly a year back started talking to each other about how awful of a person I was, of how much they disliked me, do you know how it feels to have one of your closest friends tell you “please, never talk to me again”? You feel sadness, anger, dread, and frustration, you promised yourself that you would to anything for your friends so what do you do when they are the ones that want to get away from you?

It hurts

It’s been 2 years and it still hurts, however, it hurts less than it did before.

The wound will leave a scar, but it will heal, and that’s all that matters.

[guerra]

Reading all these comments made me realize how much I wasted my youth.

Everyone had a person they wish would've stayed, a friend they wish could've been saved, a relationship they wish could've been fixed.

I never had any of those things. Yet this video is still hurtful, since it's a reminder of how exciting and fun my youth could've been if I wasn't such a coward.

[TyeDyeTi]

You really know how to hit where it hurts, and I respect that.

[flo]

I remember sending this to a couple of my friends (but it was the lost kitten version), and they said it was so cute and made their hearts melt
But i find it terrifying
Am I just a pessimist?

[hiimargo]

What’s it like to hold the hand of someone you love. interlinked

[yuezuha]

remember anon, love just happens it just hits you in the most unexpected way, well thats what ive been told. I've only dated 1 girl and that girl was the one who led me on and was the one who confessed, by the time she told me she wanted to date and love me i thought she was the one since of course i love her and everything about her and then one day she broke up with me, I woke up thinking everything was fine life just moves on the usual then i recieved a text from her saying she wanted to broke up and how she didnt love me and she wasn't ready as i read i was like bullshit what the fuck? all those happy memories we made and stuff and she didnt love me? I didnt reply and seen her eversince she sent me that text. After that i was lost in life i dont know but life was the same exept something feels empty or missing. I started listening to music more and imagine fake scenarios that i would like to happen and because of that i was in a state of existential dread wondering if there was any purpose of life? if im not even living my best life and what is the purpose of life? because of that i started viewing the world as a Nihilism living life as normall exept not caring if i die but then i found a hobby (biking) and started biking and working out after that i suddenly have an urge to just live and save up money enought to travel the whole world and as of right now im starting to be happy slowly. Albert Camus said “You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.” so i guess il go travel the world and just whatever happens happens. if your reading this all the way to the end Thanks for reading my ted talk

[physical_insanity]

The fact this started at 11 seconds for me, despite the fact this is genuinely my first time seeing it, makes me wonder when the hell I'd seen this before.
What's going on with me bros? I can't fucking take it anymore.
