Making this song into a duo makes it kind of unique in a heartbreak song because you hear both sides of the same heartbreak and feel bad for both.

[@jammybadger6514]

Not unique The Human League did it in the 80’s with Don’t You Want me Baby, it’s a great classic 80’s song if you don’t know it. And Brad and Lex have done a reaction to it if you prefer to watch a reaction.

[@calebhohneke8482]

My ears are strange like that where I have to listen to a song several times before I start to pick up on the full lyrics. Doesn't matter if it's something harder to decipher like metal vocals or something straight and clear like this song. I tend to listen to the melodic notes of the main vocals and harmonies like they are a guitar/keyboard or something flowing along with the rest of the instruments....Paying attention to the lyrics seems to come secondary to listening to the song composition and all the layers. Maybe it's because I play instruments so the sounds themselves are the most important to me....maybe it's my ADHD not allowing me to focus on the words haha. I have talked to other musicians and music listeners who go about listening to music in a similar manner....Hopefully that makes sense, but for me personally that is why I rarely pick up the lyrics on a first/second/third listen.

[@parlamedia]

The song is so overplayed, but at the same time I can't help to listen every time. To me it's THE song of the decade.

Genius work by Gotye -- Ive learned a lot about him over the years since this song came out-- He is Belgium Australian and is currently living in Brooklyn and is a drummer in a Australian band called The Basics -- He did his solo projects under the name Gotye (his mothers nick name for him ) - His real name is Wouter André "Wally" De Backer and made two absolutely amazing albums in a barn on his parents property by himself (Kimbra is featured only in this one) and is more interested in being creative than being famous - The xylophone bits in the beginning are Baa Baa Black Sheep tune - Yes Its a failed relationship but its because he is mourning the loss of a old love that he couldnt let go of and she didnt stay because no matter how hard she tried he was still thinking about someone else -- He paints himself into the background and she unpaints herself out of his picture -- Brilliant work -- BTW he is working on a new Gotye album and we will see him again! -- A really big favorite song of his for me is Hearts a Mess kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6GxYp1uh5qfkJo The official video is just as creative -- Gotye dosent believe in suing over copyright material so I wish you would react to this gem too !!!! Cant wait to see what he does next

[@HumanLiberty]

One detail to add to this excellent comment: she starts off green, symbolizing jealousy.

[@SweetThing]

Yes, "Hearts A Mess" is awesome, especially the original video with all of the animations.

[@cindyfalstrom7231]

Thank you for the link, loved "Hearts a Mess". Gotye is a genius.

[@nickniehaus1763]

[@wendydotson8891]

From what I can tell, he’s saying he never truly felt like the relationship was right, that he felt lonely even when with her, when they broke up he felt relieved but she said they’d stay friends and then ghosted him, changed her number and sent her friends for her belongings (he doesn’t say she was collecting numbers, he says she had her friends collect her records) and wouldn’t talk to him. And he doesn’t understand why when she said they’d stay friends. But then you hear her side and she feels like he mislead her, that he said he was over someone else when he wasn’t and she also felt the disconnect but he always made her feel like it was her fault. That he would do shitty things then twist it to be her fault. At least that’s how she felt, so when they’re over she completely cut him out. It’s basically a toxic relationship between two messed up people and the emotional manipulations and misunderstandings they go through. It’s a cool song because it does show both sides and how both can be both in the wrong and in the right at the same time, yet the song over all sounds almost sweet until you listen to the lyrics.

[@ShaunHensley]

I think it's more like he's doing going back and forth 'i don't need you i'm fine/you were so much to me how could you' that sometimes happens in a breakup

[@batkat0]

I don't think there's anything in the song that sounds particularly toxic on the girl's end. The guy claims she said they'd still be friends and that she ghosted him. But that's his claim. He then mentions that she wouldn't get her stuff in person and she changed her number. That's a lot of effort just to ghost an old boyfriend unless he was doing some awful shit. Plus, he makes it sound like he's fine without her her, cool as a cucumber then he's all offended that she seems to have moved on without looking back. He sounds more upset that he is not in control of the situation rather than the actual breakup.

[@soakedbearrd]

Bro went full psych phd, but good analysis lol

[@mybabycyrus2012]

What you wrote, i felt as well when i listened to it for the first time. "Now and then i think of all the times you screwed me over" she definitely had been burned by him. I love this song even though its so sad. Its more real.

[@jasonremy1627]

Settle Down is such a great song. I wish Kimbra actually got more play than she did. She kinda hit at the same time as Lorde, and something tells me the industry didn't feel like they needed to promote two quirky New Zealand singers. But damn, her stuff is 🔥🔥🔥. Wish more people knew about her.

[@commanderkorra3316]

This is one of the few music videos where I felt like it was pure art. The song is amazing and such a great collaboration between Gotye and Kimbra. This song really hit me when I was going through a breakup with my fiancé. She has mental issues and it was a long hard battle trying to help her. Her mom passed right before our wedding, and after the funeral she just snapped. But I couldn't reach her, we broke up and she moved back in with her dad. From going from my fiancé to ignoring me, somebody I use to know. It's been about a year now, my heart still hasn't healed.

[@MySherry10]

The song shows both sides, how both sides feel about it and the paint shows they are both in same picture together then she is painted out of the picture and now they are through with each other. Shes out of the picture, I love this song and love the video , so artistic in meaning

[@Trebor78]

This video is great. I love how at the end, she is slowly losing her paint. Until she is eventually no longer part of the “picture.” Someone that he used to know.

When this song came out it was EVERYWHERE amd everyone was singing no matter what genre of music you liked. Rap, metal, country, christian/gospel music everyone sang this song. Poor Kimbra. I first heard this on the radio and though it was Katy Perry. Then I saw the music video...I still thought it was Katy Perry lol she looks and sounds just like her

She sounds better than Katy I think

[@johnrios7893]

I thought it was Katy Perry too! She literally sounds exactly like Katy Perry in tone and enunciation

I mean, at first I legtimately believed it was some sort of unreleased/rereleased Peter Gabriel song (because imo the chorus sounded so much much like him to me).

[@lisemzarate4029]

Amazing song, I just wish people would stop missunderstanding the point. "I told myself that you were right for me, but felt so lonely in your company, but that was love and it's an ache I still remember " He NEVER actually loved her! He has depression and mental health issues that prevent him from it. She realized this, and left him, now he's crying about a friendship that was never real, when she confronts him about it, he "hides" from the truth, and blames her for being "cold" watch the body language in the video, this is NOT a love song at all, ok I feel better, thanks for the rant space, love you guys 💜

[@evilfantasy69]

Yep! Being hung up on his previous relationship destroys the current relationship and he will likely go on and do the exact same thing in his next relationship. Her part makes me think he is always stuck in "getting over" his previous relationship.

@@evilfantasy69 yes! Thank you! He says flat out, you can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness, and I think that line explains your point perfectly 🕶

It's an easy song to latch on to certain lyrics and ignore the rest. A lot of people can relate to being in a relationship that ends and that person becomes somebody that you used to know. Not seeing the whole picture in the song and not seeing the whole picture in a relationship.

It's familiar because it was probably the most overplayed song 10 years ago. It even was the Billboard #1 song that year (2012). It's familiar because you heard it even if you weren't trying to hear it. That being said, it's still a great song.
