Royal Blood - Pull Me Through (Official Video)

[@hobbitman27]

Massive mental health subtext to this video and song. Genuinely gave me chills. Cannot wait for more Royal Blood in their fullest.

[@Agent-wi7hu]

A fine portrayal.

[@zhoumadeit]

Have been putting this on loop since it came out. The music itself is got a healing factor of its own. Now the music video is also a phenomenal depiction of mental health. The water started slowly dripping, slowly making everything cold and wet. The first to notice is the wife (or close family members). Then immediately the boss/manager at his job staring him in a distance with confusion and disappointment. The family members quickly grown worry, got angry, as they don’t understand “what the hell is going on with him.” But they do see the situation and his state getting worse and worse by the minute. The car is flooded half way and our guy is activity panicking in sadness and desperation. Now this catches the attention of many people, and they started showing concerns and “lending help.” However, they are only tapping the surface and the effects are non-existent. Now once the water at the neck untill completely made him submerged there is a couple bystanders that really caught my eye. First is the teens and others that didn’t help but choose to take videos and pictures. (Very much is a real situation at a lot of the times.) Then there is the tough guy that tries to saw the door but leaves little to no dent. (Perfect embodiment of fixing mental issues with hammer and brute force. Which does little to nothing for how good and righteous it looks.) The African man in the back of the crowd with water dripping from him also caught my eye, as he is presumably suffering from the same thing. His own watery prison that he carries everywhere he goes just like our guy in the car. However, he could only watch from afar and couldn’t help others in the same situation. Even though he understands the same feeling way too well. Then there is the little girl eating the ice cream *smiling.* This is the most impressive depiction by far, as this one perfectly represented the people that seeks joy in the suffering of others. Notice the more our guy is dying the more the girl is smiling wide and savoring on the pain and demise of others. Other bystanders are great too like the priest that is praying etc. The depiction of our guy is accurate as well. As he has to hold his breath underwater in the dreaded swamp and slowly fades away into death. The color also shifts from blue to gold, as the deeper he sink the more reality is distorted and all that is remains is a sliver of hope for him. At the end, all it takes was one person that could understand to calmly open the door and let the water out. Once the water is out everyone just scattered and left. Alternatively, a darker interpretation could be that our guy did not survive this, as he is nowhere to be seen after the door has been opened. And given how formally the girl dressed, she very well could be funeral services. Which could also explain why everyone left so confused and disappointed. (Like welp…we lost another one to this thing…time to move on…) And the car/the prison is ready for another victim. Alright, this is all just my personal interpretation of this magnificent piece of art, and I’m really in a writing mood today. My future dreams and aspires are also tied to freeing others from this prison and battling the swamp has always been my life long passion. Thanks for reading. Have a nice day and stay positive. :)

[@pendagar449]

That's a really good interpretation of the video! I like to think that the strong man with the angle grinder actually did help, as we focused on him for quite a few frames. If you look at 2:24 you see that the sparks from the grinder are what change the color of the water, maybe this can be interpreted as giving him hope? He starts to swim after that, but like you said it's the woman calmly opening the door that helped the most. I'm not sure how to interpret the video near the end but he does join the rest of his coworkers near the end

[@lizardkingno2]

This is more straight forward than you think. you both missed an important point. The 3 other people at the end were all around the car at one point, one opening the door. They are all wet and dripping in the car scenes. Meaning they were all drowning in their own issues and understand what our guy is going through. One of them opens the door and ends up helping him. At the end they are all waiting in a lobby, getting professional mental health help.

[@kamiltomas7549]

[@mewn8873]

Wow, it was really pleasant and interesting to read. I had no idea of what could be the meaning of this video and was searching in the comments for a comment just like yours and thanks to you I can now have a little idea of what it could represent so thank you ! Have a nice day too ^v^

[@krumpirko8888gaming]

I will take new sound I don't like over same old style I like every time. Artists that don't innovate get boring after a while. While listening I though same, they are going back to roots. I would like too if they were more aggressive.

From Genius [Verse 1] Miles from the surface and right outta rebels of war In a tense submarine where the seams couldn't hold back the shore On a bed made of "What have you done?" Tone deaf with a headache for one Back to the water below Alone, as I float like a stone [Chorus] Sinking to the bottom, lost but not forgotten Down to go again hard, swimming like a punchbag Waiting on you To go ahead and pull me through Washing off the soft soaps Sleeping on a tightrope Everything I prove, got nothing left to use Want the truth? I need you to pull me through [Verse 2] Far outta reach and a thread come-coming undone Prayed as I prayed, disarray's had its day in the sun On a bed made of "What have you done?" Tone deaf with a headache for one Back to the water below Alone, as I float like a stone [Chorus] Sinking to the bottom, lost but not forgotten Down to go again hard, swimming like a punchbag Waiting on you To go ahead and pull me through Washing off the soft soaps Sleeping on a tightrope Everything I prove, got nothing left to use Want the truth? I need you to pull me through So won't you pull me through? So won't you pull me, won't you pull me through? Through, through Won't you pull me, won't you pull me through?
