I feel this is another video inspired by Bergman and novels like Brave New World and 1984. And the Black and White reminds me the all videos for Music for the Masses.
The slow motion of the couple screaming at each other and how the words can feel like bullets to your soul. And then go back to life as if nothing happened, smile with pain in your heart, until you want to drown in pain.
And if "Don't Say You Love Me" is the next single, I am going to be happy with tears. Check my comment history, I called this song my Noir/James Bond Song. The Black and White Pallet for the videos will make it my musical heart happy.
Seems so and a continuation of the music video
Either that. Or it’s poorly edited. 😉
like the reference to Martin and Dave getting ready to take the plunge. A reference to there communication issues in past.
I’m hoping for an extended video similar to Strange and Strange Too. Could also just be teasing Don’t Say You Love Me as the next single, but that’s less fun.
Hmmm. I always felt like this song sounded like it was played too slow, and the video seems to make it feel even slower….
I really enjoyed the video. It reminded me of when I was a kid, playing with my friends in the pool, trying to figure out what the other person was saying underwater, which can be tough ! I like the strange vibe of the ritual and the surrealism with the bullets, the symbolism is very strong. And I just found out that the directors, The Sacred Egg, also directed my favorite Royal Blood video (Lights Out) ! I really hope Don't Say You Love Me is next, that would be perfect.
Wagging Tongue is 2/3 of a good song. I say two thirds because its chorus isn’t a chorus- it’s a pre chorus. It didn’t diverge significantly enough from the verse parts, it just builds. And usually when things build.. they build to SOMETHING. So I’m left wanting more. But the parts that it has are good. It just feels like a half finished song.
Wagging Tongue and The Cosmos Is Mine are already listed as being singles in some European charts. I would suspect any new song the band have performed will be singles.
Wowowow that’s was bananas! Sick ending!
