this video really haunts me. the way it manages to match every lyric of the song while also being completely at odds with everything about nick carraway’s personality

was this in the directors cut

I was really confused/kind of bored by this video at first (although it is strangely intriguing), but after reading this description of the concept, it became kind of beautiful:

“In Sia’s own words, "these two warring ‘Sia’ self states.” The video plays with Shia, representing adulthood and reason, and Maddie, as wild and at times vicious as a child or animal. Maddie plays the subconscious, our imagination, capable of attacking without cause, but also falling asleep in innocence. Shia seems wiser, but he can’t control Maddie… and neither can he leave the cage of his own limits. The video makes us question who we like or hate more: reasoning or wild subconscious. And at the end, our dreams are trying to tug us free, but reason just can’t get out."

Such a beautiful video.

This guy is amazing… I think this is the best cover of this song I’ve listened to.

LISTEN TO THIS RIGHT NOW. It’s upbeat, original, captivating, energetic, and overall FANTASTIC (plus the guys crazy hot)
