Some weird music videos for you guys to enjoy.

Foster The People - Best Friend

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ndzln1UEyf0

Theory/Explanation : This music video takes the jealousy of beauty to...an extreme at the very least. It features a model who wants to be the most beautiful woman in the world, so naturally she eats everyone that she thinks is pretty. This can be compared to modern day models or women doing drugs, getting surgery, or not eating so they can look "beautiful" like all the women they see on magazines and T.V. However at the end of the video, you can see that she tried to make herself look too perfect, and ended up looking like a monster.

Foster The People - Pseudologia Fantastica

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-mTcFGiVzw

Theory/Explanation : "The dog is meant to represent our superficial greed personified, the blind workers, or in their blind greed, create this abomination "the rabid dog", the rabid dog imagery is mentioned several times in the album such as coming of age. I believe Foster chose a rabid dog as the symbol because of what a rabid dog is, an animal that has lost its senses and has been reduced to a drooling violent creature capable of only destruction to others and itself. Later in the video the dog rules over the people in a dictator like regime, symbolic of how our own greed of both drugs and money has blinded us and created the rabid dog that now rules over us, a way of saying the our greed controls us. The mysterious white collosus is meant to represent "the truth" that Foster keeps mentioning in the album, this Unfathomable, with no physical characteristics. This is the truth he keeps searching for in his little talks/songs to himself that is the album. Unfortunately the truth is blind to us and can only save us if we allow it to. But because the world of greed is so concrete, and truth is so abstract, it is so hard to find describe. The video then ends showing all of these events taking place inside of a crystal that we the audience are looking at in our hand, this is meant as to show a possibility, how if we take the crystal, we will end up like the blind workers and create a rabid dog, or let go and accept truth." - Daniel O'Connell on YouTube

MGMT - Time to Pretend

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9dSYgd5Elk

Explanation : "We wrote Time to Pretend our senior year of college, and the music was inspired by a praying mantis we had in our house. She laid eggs and it died, and we laid the egg case on this kinda model pirate ship on the mantle piece, and the eggs hatched and all these baby praying mantises were climbing up the rigging of the ship, and it was pretty crazy...uhm so the music was inspired by our praying mantis that liked to dance to The Clash {laugh} and the lyrics are just about us imagining being rock stars....and yeah, fantasy rock star life."

MGMT - Alien Days

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBu_bzxvgdI

Theory/Explanation :"it's about the existential part of the whole "getting high" thing. Alien days are like the ones where everything's new... sort of like you're an alien. Stuff like being a kid (first verse), getting high for the first time and burning out for a few years (second verse).

"Today find infinite ways it could be
Plenty worse
It's a blessing but also a curse"

Because things can always be worse, there's no reason not to just kill time now, get high, and relax. Even though drugs can open up your mind and give you some perspective on your situation in life... hey maybe it's no bad and stuff... anything that gives you a new perspective has the chance to make you something other than the centre of your own universe... and that's a curse because it gives you another reason not to work on yourself when you think you might not be so important after all.

Those days taught me everything I know
How to catch a feeling
And when to let it go

that's kind of the crux of it.. you learn to hold onto feelings and let them go when you're high, or in a stage of life that you grow out of (like being a kid). You can't be a kid forever and if you try to hold onto it you'll end up in a weird spot in life (especially in a social context). You also get bad trips when you get stuck up about something and obsessive. You have to sort of ride things out and go with the flow when you do drugs. So it's good advice for being high and life in general.. but it's still a curse because you don't want to get addicted to letting go of some of your feelings"

Empire Of The Sun - We Are The People

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hN5X4kGhAtU

Theory/Explanation : "Okay, so two friends are crossing the desert, one obviously already in a bad away. Perhaps bringing home news of a defeat, a crushing defeat with many many losses for their tribe/faction. Perhaps THE only survivors of a suicidal mission or chaotic battle where the fuckers who got them let them live to go home and tell their superiors. They return to find that one of their own, perhaps even their monarch, has died." - YTJM96 on youTube
