I also love that the chord progression “regains balance” when the choir sings. Community can put us in our place and bring us back on the right foot. Thank you for this, Mitski, we would love to hear this process for more of your songs ❤️

I never thought as an artist that this would be something I needed. For some it could take the magic out of the music, but seeing how simple yet intentional the formation of this beautiful track was makes me feel like I can make magic too 💛

Omg I would love if Mitski did this for every song on this album 😳 maybe that’s asking for too much, but I personally love hearing how an artist developed a song and the thought process Edit: okay see her explaining why the bug is like an angel makes so much sense now!! I pictured it differently as I listened, like the drinker looking down and noticing the bug and didn’t understand that way

I also pictured the protagonist looking down at the glass. Though I pictured the bug to be a moth, hence why it was a “Bug Like an Angel”. I imagined the protagonist viewed the bug as a guardian angel or something similar. It would cause them stop drinking to reflect on what they were doing, making them leave the bar. I also agreed more with pessimistic interpretation that Mitski brought up. After they left the bar they would make all of these promises to God saying they wouldn’t drink any more, and they would get better. Even when they knew they would be back. Sorry if this is long, but I could fill a book just talking about how amazing Mitski’s storytelling is!

I also trought she meant looking down on the bug thinking it was like the fallen angel, since the protagonist fell in adiction and felt like god was punishing them, like the wrath that he gave to the devil. OR like drinking and seeing that the bug, wich looks like an angel, pretty and pure, died in my glass, like saying that their addiction is really harmful to the protagonists surroundings?

I also pictured it being the drinker looking down at the glass!!! I thought the drinker called the bug an angel because it made them stop drinking the glass to avoid swallowing it, leaving just enough that the bug is half submerged.

I want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH for letting us in and taking the time to share with us how you used your creativity and perspective. It really is everything to know the intent of the composer/songwriter and I also admire your strive to give the listener the chance to “take what they need” from your music. I think that’s beautiful. Thank you thank you, Mitski!!

Yep

Mitski’s analysis is so thoughtful, it shows how not only lyrics but also every note, every melody has a part into the story she wants to tell, it’s as if everything speaks in her music.

As someone who doesn’t make music, this is so interesting to hear and know! I really appreciate this kind of content, it’s fascinating to see exactly how you craft a song, plus the little details that we might have missed (like the glass, I was visualizing it on the table, so it’s good to know it’s actually upwards!). It makes me feel even more immersed in the music, giving the little universe created in those three minutes it lasts more depth.

don’t be sorry?? thank you for letting us in on your thoughts and intentions behind the song, I really loved this. so grateful for your art in the world.

MITSKI don’t ever apologize for making this video especially this long. i really enjoyed this. thank you for sharing your beautiful talent with us.

"this video is getting long" I would listen to this for another 4 hours, your voice is so therapeutic

Mitski is a genius, honestly. Her lyrics, her music, they all have something more behind them. It's amazing.

Not a musician, but as a writer and visual artist, this was FASCINATING. Mitski is a brilliant artist and I'd watch a million more videos like this from her. Also she has the most beautiful, kind, gentle energy to her

I appreciate this video and how calm Mitski is while explaining with emotion what she felt and deeply thought while writing and throughout the song. I watched all of it and I am very happy to hear the author’s point of view. It’s a beautiful song and I am pleasantly impressed by it, I am patiently waiting for the album to come out.

I wish there were more song analysis-es from artists!! I always want so badly to know exactly which/how emotions and thoughts stir into artworks. Your thought process is so calculated and beautiful, I cant believe you feel the need to apologize for sharing❤❤❤❤❤❤

as a music student and longtime mitski appreciator (ESPECIALLY of how unique her sound is and the careful artistic choices she makes) this is exactly what i needed!!!!

i love how she puts so much thought into everything: making little easter eggs for herself as well as multiple interpretations to her song lyrics, making music special and unique to every listener as well as herself! thank you for taking the time to educate us about how you made the song, mitski :) i loved it! ❤

Mitski, i’m so excited to listen to this album, and i’m super excited to hear how you wrote this! You always find a way to make listeners feel like, so sad, but also so happy?? It’s super cool to see how you do it. Fist bump to you, Mitski 👊

Her songs make me feel sad because I'm getting into the mood of the song and contemplating the sort of feeling it's depicting. But they also make me happy because of how good they are, how well crafted and well thought of everything is. Also because of how she portrays feelings in ways that I hadn't thought of before.

I would love if she did this with more of her songs. She's such a talented songwriter, paying attention to every little detail. Mitski love you since forever

I love it when artists explain their art. Like you didn't had to, you could just leave it to listeners imagination to make up their own meaning for the song (which happens regardless and it's a beautiful thing) but you still had the kindness to let them know where every word came from with their meanings. I appreciate this video so much ♥

music is literature, and literature is music. my jaw just kept on dropping mitski you ineffable genius zeroing in on the bug like an angel to visualize an empty glass? the sticker on the floor to express out-of-control despondency? repeating the chord progression to simulate addiction? the optimism-pessimism of the ending? keep doing this please. i would binge videos like this all day. it’s just an honor to be able to share your process with you. my GOD mitski i’m in awe

Listening to the meaning behind this and knowing the experience of addiction, I love this and thank you for sharing. Its absolutely beautiful and I love that you're enjoying your music! You put so much work into it

This is amazing I love how mitski is so thoughtful of her fans and what to express the ideas and meanings behind her music I haven't seen another artist do that especially for 13 minutes I love you mitski

She puts so much effort, it's so amazing how she makes worlds out of songs that are like 3 minute long 😭😭😭😭🫶🫶🫶

Mitski would be the most amazing music teacher I fully believe that if i was in her class i would instantly be able to play a piano.

I know you don't always want to have to make us cry, but the first burst of the choir that you are so rightly proud of, made me gasp and cry and feel so much immediately. Amazing job.

This is everything I've wanted! Getting a peek behind the curtain of Mitski's art is a blessing for an fan like me who is also a writer and a visual artist

Admittedly, this song made me cry harder than anything ever has. As a songwriter, nothing would make me happier than writing something that has even a fraction of the effect on someone that this had on me. In other words, if I could know the ins and outs of any song in this world, it would be this one. Needless to say, I am incredibly grateful for this video. Thank you, Mitski. For everything.

i can sense the love mitski's showing the world in her forthcoming album tliiasaw, its truly amazing to hear how she wrote this song and her thoughts behind it. mitski ilysm

I would watch a video like this for literally every one of your songs. What a privilege, peering behind the curtain and being brought along through your creative process. So thank you! I think you'll find that many of us that have an appreciation for your songs are music nerds as well 🤓

To be able to hear Mitski talk about songwriting in detail is so amazing. I’m grateful she has taken the time to explain her process on this song in detail❤️. Her music has inspired me and my own songwriting for years

the thoughtfulness behind mitski's music is next level. this is so coooooool !!!!!

i could honestly sit here and listen to every detail for hours, this adds so much more to the already amazing song. i’m looking forward to the rest of the album

mistki never fails to amaze me through her songs. i love her and the songs so much, its a feeling so close no one gets it. i seem to be the first commenter so i have no one to share this with, but just reply to this bc id die to have someone to talk about her songs with..

Thank you for this.... As someone who has suffered with a alcohol addiction for 15 years or more this song literally made me cry. Not really for sad reasons or through self pity just your lyrics and your truly beautiful voice. Reminds me of the handsome families 'so much wine' for that reason,although the two songs are very different. I adore this song.... I first heard it in the uk on bbc radio6 at about 5am last week and i knew within a minute i had stumbled upon a thing of real beauty. I look forward to checking out and hearing your other work. Much love and thanx. 😊

this is GOLD for young songwriters, musicians and everybody interested in music and your craft, thank you so much !

I dont even think I myself understand how much I love Mitski. Just listening to her talk about anything just makes me so happy it brings tears to my eyes. Shes just like light in this world she feels like a soft glow you cant help but admire. Since shes very private I would have never expected this kind of relaxed unedited content from her but this is such a delightful treat that we got a few of these videos paired with the single. I am praying and hoping to god that she makes a few more of these because it made me realize I just dont like her music but Mitski herself is just such an amazing vibrant person. This video feels like I got an extra song in the album and I will honestly cherish it forever.

Mitski you' re a goddamn genius. I love that she put this video out there, as a songwriter I really love debunking songs (especially emotioinal ones with big meanings like this one), and I really apprechiate her posting this, it really helps me in my personal, and musical journey the song is amazing, keep doing what you do ❤

absolutely loved this, I don't think I'm the only one when I say I'd listen to a whole 10 hour long documentary dedicated to your song writing process, if not, a longer one!! it's so unique and intricate and beautiful. Thank you for sharing

Mitski always has this comforting aura I like a lot, such unique artist! Can’t wait for listen this album!!!💘

i actually gasped at the "optimistic" explanation of the last verse, i haven't even thought of that possibility. i'm usually more of a pessimist, but i like that version more than the pessimistic one, i love that idea

I love that this was a long video explaining the song I wish she’d do this for some of her other songs

Commenting after watching the full video to add my voice to the choir and say I definitely got something from this, love hearing your thoughtful breakdown and I think that the artists intention and audiences interpretation of a song can coexist peacefully with each other ❤

Gracias Mitski por esto, realmente lo aprecio mucho y me parece super interesante. La cantidad de tiempo que paso leyendo sobre explicaciones que dio el artista sobre su canción, tanto musicalmente como sobre sus letras, me encanta ver entrevistas en la que nombran sus influencias para x álbum y escuchar todo un álbum al menos de ese artista que mencionan para aunque sea poder hacerme una mínima idea de qué estaba pensando cuando hizo esa canción o simplemente descubrir otro artista a través de ellos, etc. etc. Gracias, gracias, gracias! Espero más videos en este estilo. 😁 ❤

ty for this!!!

De verdad necesitaba escuchar tu propia interpretación y el como lo cuentas lo hace aún más especial, gracias por tan buena música!💕

I love how much effort she puts in her songs, theyre always so enjoyable.

I loved this thank you mitski ❤️I’m not rlly the best at understanding the meaning of songs on my own and you just made me realize how beautiful this song is. Esp with the bug looking like an Angel at the bottom of the glass when shone up to the light, I love that. Honestly I just love when artists explain the meaning behind their songs, it makes me appreciate it so much more and also learn their intention behind it. Thank for sharing this video! I’m so excited for the album to come out, your artistry is like no one else ❤️❤️❤️

Wow- loved seeing the process behind the song. The chord choices were really interesting to learn about as well as the intentions behind the lyrics. I really appreciate these kinds of videos, especially as a songwriter! You are so inspiring. Can’t wait to see what else you create! 🎶💓

Love that chord progression. Your musical style reminds of Sufjan Stevens, or maybe he reminds me of you. Truly unique, original songwriting. And a very clever, impactful lyric about addiction, a bad friend I know well. Thanks for the breakdown. ありがとう😊

Please do more of these❤

I want to say for all of us that are still here after the years, thank you and we love you, thank you for making art, expressing and teaching, this video feels like a hug to artists❤

I would love to see more videos like this!

you go queen, thank u

This was great, I tend to put myself in the head of songwriters who I like, and imagine why they picked the chord progressions and/or lyrics that they did, but then I walk away thinking I'm crazy and they probably didn't intend any of that. It's so nice to have a direct explanation, it soothes my inner music geek... Thank you Mitski, for this video and for the new song!

Es un tema tan angelical gracias Mitski por tan bello tema ❤️

I'm really happy, I'm really proud and I'm very anxious about the album that's coming, love you. Thank you for so much, and I'm sorry for so little.

I love this. Please do more for other songs!!!

Thank you for sharing your process! Your music means a lot to me and i love this song. Excited to hear whatever you have to share with the world and hope you are having a good day :)

1. You're voice is so clear and calm and kind I'll probably watch this video over like a thousand times when I just need a break from the world and I wanna thank you in advance for helping me find an escape when life feels like too much. (Not just with this video, with everything that you put out into the world) Thank you. 2. This song is so beautiful I love everything about it. You're such an amazing songwriter and singer and I absolutely cannot wait for this album I'm so excited!! 3. I love how you leave songs up for listener interpretation. There can be thousands of meanings to songs and every one is different and special, that's one of my favorite things about art. I think my interpretation to the lines with God and the Devil would be how, like you said, the protagonist is at rock bottom and they realize that God punished the Devil like God is punishing them now, but he also forgives. So the protagonist now knows that at some point the suffering will stop, and I like to imagine the beauty of the last bit of the song as hope of forgiveness from the protagonist. That might not make sense to anyone but me, but I enjoy being a little nerdy about songwriting. 4. If it means anything to you, I wanted to let you know your music helps me get through the day sometimes, and I admire you so much. Thank you for that

this is so cool thank u mitski!!!!!
