Brian's fucking voice is making me crazy.whatever he sings is just making me feel all the emotions at the same time

The melancholy in these songs is so dense that I feel literally swimming in it no matter what place I'm in ... there's no band like Placebo - I love it

[@splendidsunrise108]

I started listening to Placebo and became a fan when I was 11. Now I'm 37, and there's hardly a day that goes by when I don't listen to them. Each time they pulverize my heart and invest my soul with an unparalleled power. Thank you for being there every step of my way. And to all the beautiful souls who love them, I send you a little of my melancholy as a gift.

[@tilleisbaer3560]

I don't know how, but Brian has a special talent to create sensitive, yet powerful lyrics. Placebo doesn't need high-toned vocals or pumping base-sounds or guitars to create powerful and artistically high-skilled music.

[@antroidi7283]

This song and Exit Wounds are the best songs on Loud Like Love in my opinion.

Just want to express my love and gratitude for this beautiful song, for Placebo, the video, and all the lovely souls in the comments.

I came to listen to placebo to help me because of the intense feelings of depression, being lost and trapped. Was listening to meds era songs and then this appears in recommended. Was not prepared to feel so empathetically attached to a song and video. If only people could understand and accept each other, instead of forcing us to hide away. Thankyou for this beautiful piece of art xx

This makes me cry. I connect with this and this story could be me in the beginning, but I came through the other side. I felt like I was on that roof or cliff quite a few times in my life. I used to go out in my own bubble, basking in that moment when one random stranger accepted the real me and showed me a kindness. I used to be sad when I had to compartmentalize myself away again and go back to playing a false role, and feeling like I’d never be me. I started that journey in 1997?(im guessing that’s when I told my first close friends) I look back now and cannot imagine how much it has been that I’ve grown over the year and have become happier after having finally transitioning. I am stable and successful and I am enjoying life. I love when inclusive artists include these themes in their art. Oh man it hits yah in the feelings !!!!

[@mcvities24]

I think it's about parting with a life lived for others, the emotional trauma, the regret, but also the decision to stand by themselves in their decision, despite others not agreeing with the life choices. I think the song is sad yet empowering.

[@saymyname8925]

There is so much pain and emotion in this song and video. Such good storytelling.

[@johnkarag]

What an incredible piece of art perfectly performed and done by Placebo one of the greatest bands ever made in the music history and scene creating always great songs and makes always good music......!!!!!!!!!!

[@gitaamelia1029]

i think this is the best of alternate director version. the song is so match with the video. Placebo is always good and the director is super brilliant! great job!

[@tiffanys6926]

This made me cry. This is my own story. I have had urge for cross dressing since childhood, yet I am completely straight. I have found myself a very special person. Told her about this part of mine. She was trying to accept it for years. I was trying to stop it, we tried compromises where this would only happen few times a year without away from her. Anything was leading to depression, regrets, sadness, paranoia. Eventually after 6 years we gave up. It cost me marriage and child. We were both in love even at the moment of separation, however the pain she was having just by thoughts about me as female were devastating her. Now I live just like this guy. Single. Sad. Lonely. Dressing up from time to time, often mimicking her.

[@natalia5189]

Please do what makes you happy. Honestly this world may be terrifying, but there is many open minded people. Hope you feel better soon! I kind of understand what you feel

[@diamonddust5835]

The only real issue there is her issue with your issue. There's no shame at all in feeling feminine. Human kind are all biologically started as female anyway. I'd just ask you to really want what you want and be sure about it. There are too many variables that cause or bring about worry.

Hickory Dick my dear friend that was a reaaally wild leap . First of all i would like to clarify that no assumption of such kind was intended by my comment nor do I hold any such assumption in my personal life . Furthermore i disagree that such an assumption is even insinuated by the phrasing of my comment. Having cleared that , correct grammar is specific and while thankfully societies move forward , trying to accuse people of stereotypes on every possible occasion - however stretched - doesn’t help with that.

[@MrNemay]

I really live the music with this song, but I didn't get the video straight !! "And I tried, God knows, I tried", he tried to pretend being someone who isn't really him ?? or that he was against his desires for the other sex ?? It's really confusing :S, help fans ..

[@alinne7427]

Thalia Velásquez i though he was living as the girl 'cause he was blaming himself for something like the end of relationship or if the girld died. I couldnt understand either. ***** can you tell us how you get the song? Alexandru Mortimer it's a good point of view but i think it would be great to discuss what the video is trying to say

[@MrNemay]

Well in general these alternative videos are confusing or meaningless most of the time, it's better I only listen to the song without watching them, they take away the music content making it something else !!

[@weevil8025]

I know this song isn't about transgender people, and I'm cisgender. I don't think anybody should have to suffer because of their gender identity. I was dating a woman online for a long time, and I remember how scared she was when she told me she was transgender, she thought that if we met up, I would hurt her over it. She hid that for so long and I can't imagine how hard it was for her. But I don't care man, whether she is a cisgender woman or not, it doesn't matter. I fell for her personality, it was never about her body. This is how love should be, in my opinion. We aren't together anymore, but still friends, and I always support her transition.
