Japanese Breakfast - Machinist (Official Video)

[@elise1354]

this song is criminally underrated.............. this is probably my favorite song of all time and has been since I first heard it in 2017

[@thisismadisonacid]

Literally just typed this comment myself before I read this.

[@teehundeart]

Autotune fits perfectly in this track. Sounds fucking great and fits the theme. That's how it's done!

[@chriswatson8199]

Pretty sure the autotune was done to match the song's theme which is about falling in love with a robot. Didn't hear any autotune on the rest of their new stuff when they played live, so cool your jets folks

[@boglin]

saw them open for alex g last night, she said this song was supposed to be "robot sexy" lmao

[@fridaballard8769]

Chris Watson yeah in an interview that I saw, this new album she envisioned as sci-if sort of record. machinist was the first song, but none of the rest really followed the same theme, so it kind of stands out from the rest

[@YoullClapWhenImGone]

Autotune/vocal effects are awesome if used right, am not talking about pitch correction when acts sing live, there's a difference imo

[@damnthatsfr5475]

I know this is 6 years old and ik you aren't but people who care about artists using autotune are annoying and I completely agree with the comment above, this song would not sound nearly as good as it does without autotune imo

[@dane279]

Love the cyberpunk / anime vibe. I'm glad to see bands take chances and not stick to one formula. For the people complaining about the vocoder effect, the other new songs don't use it.

[@snowytundra1722]

I will never understand why this song didn't catch on. It's still amazing.

[@melody3741]

Vocoder is not autotuning. Also, when an artist plays a keyboard, the software tunes the note perfectly. This is acceptable. Yet somehow using your voice as an instrument that isnt fair or whatever? Music is about more than how difficult it is to execute no matter who you are. And i would argue that the difficulty to play music is absolutely completely and totally irrelevant to its validity as music and whether it sounds good or not

[@jamesp.mcquoid1639]

If it sounds good, it is good.

[@NightlifeSux]

nah its autotune and its gay

[@danitempest]

@@NightlifeSux Yes, and makes me very happy too. Or should I say, autotoo?

[@calato3477]

music is more about how you feel when you listen to

[@RockChick63174]

@@NightlifeSux you're crude AF.

[@superbowlsaturday]

"it could be bliss 🥺" "machinist..... 🥵🔌😳"

[@kaylareed4501]

because the auto tune matches the theme. Come on, it's fantastic.

[@ronaldpickinpaugh6447]

that sax solo tho

[@Alfredorodriguez-lz7oh]

UK gduuyo

[@nnikaa3]

YES

[@I_am_Warthog]

To the commenters complaining that they can't find the official lyrics because "they exist nowhere", buy the record...the lyrics for every song are in the liner notes. Here they are for this song in the meantime. I don't know how it happened Was it always this way, and I just couldn't see it? Heart burning hot enough for the both of us I never realized how much you were holding back All the times I felt so plugged in You were tuning out A muted channel, a cold shell, a hologram, an abyss... How can I fight a kingdom of your demons? A mist, so palpable You can't have it all Her and all the pleasure A woman can give [woman]-Do you trust me? Can you feel it? [machine]-Total control, can't let go [woman]-It could be bliss [machine]-Machinist Can't speak, you wanted it all Let go a piece of your heart, all the pleasure it gives Leave me lost in the night Shadows go in and go by I just wanted it all Here's to the night! A lullaby a creepin' A song, to win your love See me at all? Through all of your aggressors The true one Can't speak, you wanted it all Let go a piece of your heart, all the pleasure it gives Leave me lost in the night Shadows go in and go by I just wanted it all

[@AsteridMusic]

Love this song but couldn't find the lyrics anywhere, this is what I'm hearing: I don't know how it happened Was it always this way? And I just couldn't see it? Heart burning hot enough for the both of us I never realized how much you were holding back All the times I felt so plugged in You were tuning out A muted channel, a cold ship, a hologram, an abyss How can I fight a kingdom of your demons? A mist so palpable. You can't have it all Her and all the pleasures A woman can give Do you trust me? Can you feel it? Total Control Can't Let Go It could be bliss Machinist Can't speak You wanted it all Let go a piece of your heart All the pleasure gets Leave me lost in the night Shadow, you're running by I just wanted it all Here's to the night A lullaby a creepin' A song to win your love See me at all? Throw all of your aggressors on That you want

[@jasminemarie3053]

starling oo

[@Sogonrei]

I love your live performance on Juan's basement to this with the band Michelle! This is how I envisioned the video! 😍

[@EJericjackson]

Love this direction. its better/more interesting to see artists experiment and explore then play it safe.

[@ieatgohan]

hey michelle nice moves keep it up proud of u

[@gurunightmarethefart]

Aaron Silao papa bless

[@b.l.o.o.d.m.o.s.e.s.]

Aaron Silao H3H3 and Japanese Breakfast? Fuck yeah

[@dinnerbone444]

i see your comments like this in her other vids. do u know her

[@lunamothhh]

That synth melody is so TASTY

[@waitzsauce]

This sounds like Grimes on Art Angels. So good.

[@Ethan-yz6tj]

got to see this song live they closed with it and she climbed into the crowd at screamed into the mic at the end. energy at that stage was insane. great show.

[@StoneEdwards]

I just love everything about this song from the dreamy feeling, to the voice modulation, to the sax at the end. I'll have to join others here in saying this is one of my favorite songs ever.

[@alex-bf3qd]

the fucking sax solo.

[@fossilfighters101]

[@amypennock6339]

Everything this woman does is gold!!

[@arcticsmoke302]

Blade Runner vibes are never a bad thing! I love this song…it’s such an amazing atmosphere of synthetic energy and human feelings both coming together for an optimistic bond.

[@chmoor10]

I cannot begin to describe how much I love this

[@JoeMandell-]

You know your kid loves you when you get this album on vinyl as a Christmas present. 🎁 🎶 ❤️

[@thisismadisonacid]

Great taste, dad. (Lol) And your kid clearly has it too, to give it to you on vinyl. Heck yeah!

[@henrycrampton-hays1478]

This is personally my favorite Japanese Breakfast song, although I'm little biased because I'm probably a bit more poptimist than the core fan base. Still admire all her music and creative, narrative lyrics.

[@CruxKevin]

This song has grown tremendously on me. Was the only song that I hated off Soft Sounds from Another Planet. After actually giving it a good re-listen, i can finally say I like the entire track list of an entire album, 12 for 12.

[@calvin5872]

I love this kind of comment section, where every top comment is defending the video against a comment that's at like, the bottom of the list.

[@shermanshermanson6631]

remember listening to this song when yall debuted it opening for Slowdive in montreal. Still bumping it nearly 7 years later lol

[@Akarinata]

Man, I need some official lyrics- they exist nowhere. I wanna dissect all of this on paper, but some of the words are spoke so dreamily with their electronic alterations that they escape my mortal perception.

[@frankibonanno8257]

I love you

[@fireside101]

Every time I go to play this song from iTunes I decide to come to KZbin and play the incredible video along with it. So good, can't wait for the album next week.

[@Jnmicter]

THIS IS GROOVY AS FUCK

[@sakuramikuoshi]

i’ve been obsessed with this song lately

[@bartolomeu2923]

this song grew on me so much

I just noticed the beginning is liek the ending of their other song "Road Head"

[@AliceYobby]

listen to the full album and you’ll see why lol

[@nilanjansarkar8251]

One of the best productions of 2017!

[@asqa1337]

aaah I love this direction I wish she keeps experimenting with this sound for the rest of the album too!

[@davidaguilar8840]

This song is so good man, her natural voice is amazing but she somehow tuned it and hit it out of the park. Added to the playlist for sure

[@Grt1n]

Just Discovered this band and I’m in love! This song is freaking amazing! Love the auto tune it fits the song so well and shows that auto tune can be used in a artistic way and not just because someone really can’t sing.

[@isabellareese6600]

I remember seeing ya'll live for the first time and trying SO HARD to find this song but a year later HERE WE ARE I'M SO HAPPY

[@mabiniss2]

I just discovered her, but I'll be bummed if this is the only song in her new album that I end up liking.

[@Fanny-gm2hb]

i love every second of this

[@raymondcervantes6252]

I want to go hear the rest of this story!!

[@e.d.j]

So strangely addictive... definitely a good song to drive fast to at night.

So goofy! Song is catchy. Thanks for the upload! DAT SAX!

[@baigmusic]

So coool, love the retro vibes, enjoyed listening to this a lot! :)

[@MultiFlashone]

Very nicely done!!! I'm glad I found you. I also like how your vocals get out in front of your instruments and resonate back to the music....if that makes sense. Take care.

[@5012khgia]

best song in the album

[@IamMeIam]

People, autotune can be awesome, don't forget, this woman can SING, the point of it was for the theme of the song, and it fits perfectly! this is a great change of pace from the first album!

[@futuresworld]

I was definitely surprised when they played this live, but the drastic new sound does fit with the video! And if you're not quite feeling it, they played a few other new tracks and they are closer to the "usual" Japanese Breakfast sound, from what I could gather. Definitely looking forward to Soft Sounds From Another Planet!

[@ShanonSaunders]

For Julia! 😭 love you ❤️

I dig it. I think we all dig it.
