Au/Ra - Emoji (Official Video)

[@HeyItsAuRa]

heyaa! thank you guys suuuh much for all the sweet feedback.

[@moonseeker5801]

I think what's happening is that the person would rather stay talking and being almost like an 'emoji'. Such as more happy like compared to how they are in real life. They don't want to show their true self or else they might end up losing everything. The messages between the two have almost like a robotic feel to it. So, at the end of the video they end up turning into their internet, or robotic self to cover up everything true to them. I am not sure if this is the true meaning, but this is my guess at it.

[@iwaseasymeat]

hey aura

[@chelsxxeaa]

Au/Ra/Jamie💚 you told us on Instagram it’s about rather talking to someone over the internet instead of talking to them in real life and catfishing an identity!

[@lolzo2251]

I think that this is supposed to represent the ways in which we communicate these days through the use of social media without expressing how we actually feel and how we are constantly monitored by others online based on our lives, essentially demonstrating that we are becoming more like machines rather then people as we can't express ourselves properly and we can't feel free or real.

[@gargij8315]

I have a theory that the girl is a sort of cyborg like who is experiencing human life for the first time and she'd rather stay emoji or something along those lines

[@anniesemondragon8703]

Here goes another theory: Au/Ra wasn't human, an android made in the past mv panic room (she practically wants to be human by grabbing a heart of one of the doctors, held it close to her heart perhaps she thought it'll make her feel like one of us. Confused she went on a killing spree to find more hearts). In this mv the secret organization who made her somehow locked her in a closed room. Without her knowledge she was left there to be a human attraction. Because it's mesmerizing to see a robot act and tries to be human. Also it can be a dual meaning since she tries to mimic human emotions, she has none in the end. Hence 'Emoji'. I haven't watch Outsiders yet so that's my current theory for now.

[@slut4jesus925]

I think the video symbolises catfishing in a way, she's stuck pretending to be a person she isn't and she ends up completely losing her identity. The people looking in on her could be how she always seems to have an audience online and she doesn't feel she has any real privacy. Seeing as she's putting a false version of herself and projecting a fake personality she disconnects from herself (removing her own face and lying down) the lights changing could reflect feelings she can't be honest about, and the liquid from her nose could represent who she really is trying to come out. But because of her own insecurities would rather live with the idea of what people think she is and not who she actually IS. Shedding her outside skin is like peeling off the fake and not real.

[@chantelrose7542]

Damnnnnn Your smart

[@shykitten362]

Well it does say something about catfishing I think 🤔🤔

[@tkb1467]

I think it's more like people trying to be a different person online. Like different personality or using things like filters rather than catfishing. Because when you think about catfishing is about dating someone while being a completely different person that you put yourself up as.

[@MusicLover-xn2nv]

Yeah that's right

[@MusicLover-xn2nv]

And btw that's really smart you are smart

[@icnxo]

"This is the main verse of the song, around which the content of the song is built. Au/Ra describes the meaning of this verse as follows: “I’d rather keep texting and communicating over the internet where the ‘safe zone’ is, than having to be face to face with this person in reality.”
So the phrase “stay Emoji” is basically a paraphrase for staying anonymous, as the other person has no other pictures of Au/Ra in his head than the Emojis Au/Ra sent and therefore doesn’t know her true personality, and vice versa. Au/Ra wants to keep it like that, as she is too afraid of not matching the picture the other person has developed of her, and doesn’t want to get her feelings hurt if the other person doesn’t turn out to live up the picture she has built up of him/her." via Genius

I feel like the meaning of this video is how the girl has feelings which might be too much for her to handle for example her self esteem how she keeps doing her makeup and then messes up and everything like that. That's why she saids I rather stay emojie or something like that bcuz she doesn't want to keep feeling so many emotion idk this is just what I think

[@timergent]

and because she prefers behind the screen communication, she is portrayed as turning into some kind of ex machina type android, completely throwing out human real communication possibility

[@creativewater5220]

I think she is forced to push down her problems and keep a nuetral face like nothing is wrong in her life.

[@ashleyfelice1839]

It's about catfishing

[@der4n]

to me, it's about the fact that we are as fake as emojis as a society,

[@cinzabeary5226]

It's about her being catfished and she knows it but she's in love with the online relationship even though it's fake so she wants to stay in the game. But she's asking herself if being in such relationship is turning our love lives into a digital lie. The make is used as a metaphor. The uncontrollable twitching, the makeup oozing out. We're becoming electronic puppets and dependent on masking ourselves to the point the lies show themselves. It can get super complicated cos there's so much symbolisms portraying today's digital dependency era.

[@wallflower_tium]

This video is wayyy too complex for my little brain to understand *BUT* This is how I understood it : at the beginning we see a normal girl, a bit stereotyped (straight long hair, pink room and pink clothes, makeup, hairbrush ...) but when she applies the lipstick she "glitches" and goes off for a sec : bc I think she is actually a machine. If we dig deeper and take the lyrics in consideration, then we can assume that the girl-machine is the "emoji version" of Au/Ra. Like there is the real Au/Ra (that we don't see at all) and her "internet" self, the person she makes believe she is to the viewers (her followers maybe ?), the people who stare at her at the very end of the video. She makes them believe she is a beautiful girl (with makeup) living in a happy pinky world with no problems at all. A bit like all those "instagram-perfect-people-but-not-so-perfect-in-reality-but-we-don't-know-it". Anyway, so she wakes up from her "glitching-to-off" phase and panic, bc she doesn't want her real self to be seen or even assumed by the viewers. But her foot and her jerky face moves (fluttering her eyelashes, shake her head and strange look) show that she's still glitching even though she doesnt want to. She ignores it all and continue doing her makeup, building her "internet" self, beautiful and happy (probably sending plenty of happy emojis whereas shes in reality not that much happy) I don't get the symbols at 1:21 and on the fan at the beginning though. Is she like counting her days in the pinky room, making this whole "fake" existance a trap ? A jail ? She even cut the symbol on her curtain or something, is it another indication of her glitching or ? 1:27 "You don't have to watch your back" said she but her eyes are saying "YOU REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M CAPABLE OF AND YOU SHOULD TOTALY WATCH YOUR BACK CAUSE I'M GONNA KILL YOU". So here clearly we can see that her "internet" self isn't her true self, and believing otherwise is completly stupid and dangerous. Actually, her viewers don't know het at all. Then her nose is bleeding a dark liquid, to show that the glitching is increasing and gaining importance in her body, and metaphorically that her "internet" self is losing credibility and the viewers are starting to understand that she is lying (or is it simply Au/Ra herself that can't bear making the viewers believing she is someone else ? Is it what the glitching thing is all about ? Her realising it is wrong, it is not her ? Aaargh so many possibilities I can't decide 😂). Well WHATEVER THE GLITCHING THING MEANS it makes her panic even more, touching her face with a desesperate look, when she seems to realise that there is something under her skin. So she just ... take it off ? (Ughh a bit disgusting) and under her "skin", which symbolise her mask, her hiding behind a false internet identity, under it there is a ... a what ? A robot ? Some electric machinery ? Well something symbolysing her "internet" self. So she finally discovers that this is all fake (what I'm writting doesnt make any sense anymore Im sorry), that internet isn't the reality, that is was all an illusion (when she literally TOOK OFF HER FACE and stare at it) and it breaks her down. And all along the viewers were ... viewing ? - looking - and there is 2 possibilities : either they saw it all, her realising she isn't who she'd like to be/was thinking she was/made the viewers believing she was and they saw her broke down but didnt do anything, OR the "internet" Au/Ra is still here, lying to them and they didnt see the interior/inner realisation and desesperation of Au/Ra. Well sorry if you read it all bc its not even logical 😂😭 Im even more lost about the meaning of the video than I already was BEFORE writting all of this 😂 (and sorry if its not well written im french so pardon my english) (Its a mess but im gonna post it anyway so ppl will maybe help me understand it) (btw the symbols are the thing I understand the less so if someone got it I'd love some explanations) Edit : oh also I didnt get the thing with her nails lol Edit : and the colors of her room change accordingly to her feelings : pink at the start, happy with her fake-but-great life, then red with her panicking and dark with her realisation and depression (I guess lol) Edit : wait her clothes are changing too

[@scribble5105]

Lone She•Wolf wow what a legit explanation 👏👏👏

[@dristi4748]

Thanks it helped me determind what the video is abt

[@littleskilletscribbles3106]

I have something to add about the nails ( because you said you didnt get it ) her ring finger kept showong a symbol of a bug and that is literally the only finger thats twitching. At some point it connects to your theory but its also a symbolism that shows that the " bug" is glitching. Its like a bug in the system.

[@littleskilletscribbles3106]

Ok so i realized that the symbol isnt a bug, but its probs a symbol that is the cause of the bug. Its really long ago but if an android phone sends you a symbol ( i think its originally from the language arabic ) but your phone would glitch out. I think its the same concept but except of something bad happening, its making her realize and see whats inside the " system " aka herself. Its wild but oh well

[@wallflower_tium]

Little Skillet Scribbles ooooh ok so all the glitches were triggered by the black nail ?

[@jazzlingard]

My theory is that at the beginning we see the ‘emoji’ whichever emoji this may be, and then as she begins to peel off her skin we see what’s inside. Most of the emojis people use aren’t what they are actually thinking, and mask a lot of feelings. I’m probably wrong but whatever is going on in this video it is a masterpiece and I lurrrve it❤️

[@envillusion3255]

My Theory: Ok so first, the au/ra we see in the beginning is a persona she’s trying to keep up with how the internet wants her to be all “perfect” that’s why the room is so neat and kept pristine, the glitch we see is her trying to escape from this fake her she’s emitting, but she doesn’t regain full control. As the fake her regains control she tries to complete her perfect look with now applying the mascara, yet again another glitch, this time she gains some sort of control and starts to peel at her skin. Which i think is some sort of symbolization of her wearing a mask and acting as some one she isn’t. The ending to the video with the red light flashing is au/ra now realizing she’s being controlled in some sort of way, she realizes she can’t get out of the room, and this takes the mask off, which symbolizes yet again her not being true to who she wants to be, but she realizes this and chooses her view of herself instead of social media’s view towards her and how they want her. The people watching could symbolize the internet, watching her every move. Now the title of the song Emoji, I think it’s named that because an Emoji has many different meaning depending on which one you use, “I’d rather stay emoji” that lyric to me is an implication that au/ra would rather be an emoji even though it has more than one meaning to it, it’s staying true to itself, get it?

So young and talented like a star. 😮

[@yournanatran2805]

I GET IT OMGOSH OK OK its about people no communicating with each other in person but only texting thru phones and communicating with lower case and yelling is upper case and you use "emoji" to show emotions, there's a lot of meaning

i have a theory on what the song means- it might've been said already but i just want to say mine and my evidence anyway ;w; i think it means that she wants to stay fake so she doesn't upset people (“i'd rather stay emoji”). being fake as in putting on a fake, happy personality. telling people how you feel or how depressed you really are, is scary. like how the other person that you're telling can easily leave you because they can think of you as some helpless wimp, or just make you feel more terrible than you already have-which, i've learned the hard way... which leads to how putting on a fake smile is better than spilling your heart out. this goes back to “i'd rather stay emoji” because emojis are expressions used for texting/online stuff. texting/online stuff can be very believable. for example, compare asking out a person through text and through a face-to-face talk. through text, the person can say what they want to say without showing embarrassment because the person on the other end can't see them. they'll seem really confident. but through face-to-face, you can see the embarrassment in the person, knowing they're nervous/embarrassed, not very confident compared to text. she also shows this through the line “i think you must be cool, because you used the alien face” being confident/cool is more powerful than being nervous/scared, so au/ra wants to look more powerful by using “emojis”. i think she's portrayed as some robot on the inside because that shows her being different, which leads to judging and leaving, which also leads to how she wants to cover up. when she “glitches out”, like when she “shuts off” for a bit when doing her lip stick or gets a nose bleed of some metallic thing, she panics. that's because she doesn't want to show the “different” side of her-or, reveal her feelings, or else, judging, blah blah blah. you probably get the point now. it says “don't wipe this smile off my face” because she doesn't want to lose her happy mood/wants to keep disguising herself. next, it says “don't want this fragile heart to break” because she doesn't want people leaving her and she doesn't want to feel more depressed than she already is. at the end, she finally has shown her true self to people and is absolutely devastated because they're all judging her and she failed her own task. if my theory is right, i can really connect to this song because i actually hide my feelings most of the time. when somebody says maybe just a sentence about their feelings/depression, i think about mine for the next minute, but try my best to forget it as soon as possible. not wanting to show other people because i'm scared of them thinking of me as something annoying, just that “depressed girl”, you know? _ok i sound like i hypocrite while sharing my feelings right now but look, i'm just connecting to the song so fite me lol-_ so uh yeah das my theory 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@cy8903]

While I know it's not likely to be the "right" interpretation, to me this video shows the personification of a chatbot. They start out normal, but then errors and glitches creep in as they communicate with the outside world (the emojis). And in this video where the chatbot is personified, she becomes aware she is fake and doesn't know what to do, literally coming apart, all while others look on.
