System Of A Down - Hypnotize (Official HD Video)

[@pattihowell2629]

[@Deoxribonucleic]

When it comes to raw and specifically technical musical talent, metal and other heavier bands almost always take the cake in my opinion. Like, a band like that is one of the types with which you're actually able to find that everyone in the band doesn't just play one thing but can actually shred on many a thing.

[@Deoxribonucleic]

I feel like that's why it's not uncommon to see metal people do electronic and vice versa, because both take a lot of talent if you actually want to be good.

Do you by chance recall the music video ever being different? I remember seeing it on Fuse after school like a bazillion times. When I would hear it come on, I would always drop everything I was doing and stand in front of the TV to watch the video and the reason I did that was because it was such a cool and unique concept; just a screen, on which, cgi paint marks would appear to visually represent the sound and as more instruments and the vocals came in, each sound had it's own color, pattern, shape, and, movement. They all looked like how they sounded and each did their own thing but together, gradually filling the screen as one big painting. There's a clip of it from 2:25 to 2:55 in this video but I explicitly remember the whole video being the painting stuff.. that's WHY I loved the music video so much. I tried showing it to my bf a couple years ago and I couldn't find any trace of the video the way I remember and I can't find anyone who remembers it either. I've found myself here in a universe where one of the coolest music videos ever doesn't even exist and it bums me right out. I just wanna see that video again 🥺 Do you remember? Does ANYBODY remember?

​@@NolifeterranI remember that in an AMA with Daron iirc, he said that they write lyrics for the common person to listen to and think about "while waiting in the car for their girlfriend". Also should be noted that Daron wrote this song while waiting in the car for his girlfriend. It's honestly kind of weird how often it happens that they have one or two lines that are so specific but open to so much interpretation at the same time.

[@QuestionCartoons]

The album they did with that song on it had a bunch of song lyrics that didn't seem to make sense, what I realized about that album was they started putting nonsense lyrics in a lot of their songs just to be catchy & to poke fun at the music that was popular at the time. If you go back and listen to that entire album, you will see what I mean, the album's hypnotized and mesmerized were exactly like that, they were intentionally putting goofy lyrics to prove it would still be popular people would still sing the lyrics and it would still sell. And it did. 😂 "I'm just sitting in my car and waiting for my girl" ... That's literally every love song in a nutshell, especially in the early 2000s, those guys are smart, they know what they're doing.
