It's a metaphor for how we have so many things to give us attention, that when we realize how little attention we can pay to anything we have already lost our grip on life that we want to give up and hide from the world. (_Or_ it's just a random video. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Tiffany Sun it was sniffing the violin

Lyrics for those in need: Tiny life afraid to leave its shell, I keep on staying in this hole I've dug myself. My little lungs keep breathing, heart keeps beating...... I'm never leaving...... Let me be forgotten bit by bit. I really just don't give a damn about my self. Just let me waste away, I'll fade away...... I'll go quietly...... The world is harsh, there's nothing for me. Let me hide here. I'll be quiet, I'll be quiet, I'll be quiet...... Let me lie here, let me stay. I never asked for any of my life to be this way... Go ahead, keep searching, let me lie here...... I've found my place....... I'm not even tired, I'm just done. I'm done with trying to make peace with every single ghost. Nothing will ever be the same... And I imagine it would be...... And everything is all the same. Everything is all the same. Everything is all the same. Everything is all the same. Everything is all the same. Everything is all the same.

Amazing! Snails are so awesome. Their slow, primitive bodies, harness the physics of fluid mechanics to move in ways that are not possible for other animals. Their eyes, totally different from other species in the way they move and work, are yet so similar to ours in structure, even if they evolved independently. Their tiny bodies, with their tiny nervous system, use those tiny eyes, to look at us, to recognize us, to react to us. And in their behavior, they are not so different from us. Find, assess, explore, venture. The same drive that moved us until now, is moving them forward, each and every day of their life. It's amazing how alike we are. And you know what else is amazing? How well they go boiled, served with sour cream and garlic sauce.

SNAIL NO, DON'T DO IT! DON'T GRAB THE SALT! IT'S NOT WORTH IT!

I like how the armchair psychiatrists have looked at this quirky video with a hauntingly beautiful song in it and because it doesn't fit into their narrow box of what they consider to be a "normal video" have come to the conclusion that ViHart either needs help or must be on drugs. This video was really well edited and had a really intriguing composition in it, there is no way someone that was high on drugs could have written it. And if it is to eccentric for you that you have concluded from it that Vi "needs help" then go back to watching "cats riding Roombas" videos.

@tstartrekdude

10 жыл бұрын

This was a piece of art, made to make you feel feelings, and for most people I'm sure it did a really good job. People who think that this video was some kind of cry for help have not been watching vihart for very long, and probably haven't had friends like her before IRL. That being said, she probably does do at least psychedelics, there have been a number of studies showing correlation between increased drug use and intelligence and she is a smart lady. Plus Mushrooms are fun.

@Alienturnedhuman

10 жыл бұрын

tstartrekdude What gets me is the arrogance and ignorance of all the people thinking there are 'warning signs' in this video. ViHart isn't making these videos in secret, she's famous for them meaning her employer, family and real world friends will all be aware of them. If there was "something" to be concerned about then these people would all be aware of it and would have helped her long before some KZread viewer picked up on "signs" they inferred from watching an original, deliberately quirky and unconventional video. It is crazy that people somehow think they are "the one" who has spotted something. A person on drugs couldn't begin to make this video and someone crying out for help wouldn't make a video on snails. Just because something isn't normal or someone behaves in an eccentric manner does not mean they need an intervention to give then help to start functioning like a cookie "normal" human being. Being weird means you have an identity.

Who knew a snail could know such existential melancholy?

This is one of those videos that make me sorry there is only one level of "Like" on KZread. It's so good!

I've seen thousands of nature documentaries, and this one is the best.

Oh. oh wow. I...I just did not expect these warm salty things coming out of my seeing things.

Smart people like to take breaks now and then from being smart. I like to drink, Vi likes projecting into snailness. Jes thinkin out loud here.

Snails are pretty cute. I had two on my car hood recently driving through the city and it was great to watch them stretch their heads out in unison to look at the street lights going by as I drove along. Somehow you knew this was amazing for them, they'd never seen anything like it. There are things like this which link all creatures regardless of their so called intelligence.

great video. I don't know why but I really love your style Vihart...

So depressing and beautiful. Art.

Beautiful music. Fully captures the feeling of giving in to a mellow depression.

I relate to this snail

Brought me to tears!

The Adventures of Snail! In episode three Snail despairs of ever finding New Thing and turns, um, their shell on the world only to end up catching a buzz on a violin being played by Vi. Talk about Different Thing! Those tentacles def could not deal with the vibration -- ouch! Great cinematography, editing, composition and everything. Moar Snail!

OMG this channel is pure art.

This is the saddest song loosely about snails I have ever heard.

this is the saddest trilogy since the beginning of time.

Awesome song! I never before understood the angst of snail life.

Of all your things, I like your snail things the best ^w^
