The Qemists - Hurt Less (Official Video)

The second single taken from the forthcoming second album from The Qemists 'Spirit In The System' released 7 July (Japan) / 16 August (EUR) / 24 August (N.America).
The Qemists website: www.theqemists.com
'Hurt Less' and is about having two sides to your personality. There is a light side and a dark side that can be exaggerated when we drink too much, party too much or allow our fun and relaxation to turn into regret and paranoia. This video is based on the idea that we keep this little monster locked up inside us and given the right circumstances it breaks free. I tried to think of the most innoccent person I could, a young girl, and what happens when other people's fun brings out the dark side in her. There are references to Let The Right One In - I loved the idea of these relatively innocent looking actors could do angry things.
The girl was Ola Krzemieniecka she's a 16 year Polish Twae Kwon Do champion. Her father is a famous Polish stunt coordinator who helped us out with the fight sequence at the end. We shot the whole film in an estate in Praga on the East Side of Warsaw, Poland. It actually is quite a rough part of Warsaw and the crew were quite nervous about us filming there. They definitely wanted us to finish before it got dark...

LYRICS Nobody's perfect Gotta find a way to get through this For another day Make the pain go away If you could make it hurt less (if you could make it hurt less) Wouldn't you take what was needed (wouldn't you take what was needed) To make it easier? Yeah I know sometimes I'm not all that I can be It's a temporary consequence Of my self medication Yeah I know sometimes I'm not all that I can be It's a temporary consequence Of my self medication Make it hurt less Oh hurt less, oh hurt less, please hurt less Make it hurt less Oh hurt less, oh hurt less, please hurt less Make it hurt less Oh hurt less, oh hurt less, please hurt less I can't find the words tonight I can't find the time I need How can I get hurt When the paths collide When she dies inside of me (make it hurt less) Then the bottle breaks There's no more to take I see The unprecedented consequence Of my last conversation Nobody's perfect Gotta find a way to get through this For another day Make the pain go away If you could make it hurt less Wouldn't you take what was needed To make it easier? Yeah I know sometimes I'm not all that I can be It's a temporary consequence Of my self medication Make it hurt less Oh hurt less, oh hurt less, please hurt less Make it hurt less Oh hurt less, oh hurt less, please hurt less Make it hurt less Oh hurt less, oh hurt less, please hurt less Nobody's perfect Gotta find a way to get through this For another day Make the pain go away If you could make it hurt less Wouldn't you take what was needed To make it easier?

the ending fight sequence was spectacular! her attacks instantly killed everyone!

[@soundseeker9]

amazing track, I've heard it first on John B's podcast 80 and immediately fell in love with it, can't stop listening to it now, tune is massive !!!

[@WandererNamedGuy]

that was probably the best D&B song/video i've seen in a while. fucking powerful too.

[@TheTosia12]

I'm not giving up!! I love this song!!!!

[@Avioto]

Closed my eyes after the 1st minute of the video. Great track!

[@RP_SVN9]

Why is everyone hating on the video? ide like to see most of you make a tune this good and a video that fits the song. its not as easy as just making a video. the video has to fit with the music in many different ways to suite the mood of the song... i.e bright colours symbolise happyness... the song has a happy vibe.

[@nicrazymomma]

this song hits every emotion!!

[@gimini84]

She killed'em! This video is very agresive! Like it!

[@zeronvsm]

Greeting for Quemists from poland :P They were awesome on Audiriver in Plonsk and now video made in Poland.... They're Awesome

[@xIreland2k7x]

People who are hating on the music video have no taste for style or cinematics. Video was amazing, and very well produced.

[@FitzMastaflex]

Such an anthem of a tune. This needs a 2023 remaster.

[@23illogical]

wonderful video!

[@scr33ky2000]

perfect directing.. acting the video is perfect !!

[@jahcoba]

so i'm doing dishes in the room beside the room my computer is in, and I have the bass full and the volume close to half, because full would kill my fish, and this song hits a bassline frequency so-ever-often between 1:50 and 2:15 , and my whole counter top literally vibrates and makes noise. this song is awesome.

[@bluehorrors]

Loving this song atm!

[@baalzagoroth4693]

2:35 how NOT to punch

[@zeronvsm]

I'm from Poland... This clip was made on my mates hood :). Also i've been on Audioriver Festival 2010 and im going to be in 2011 :) Quemists was great. And about Praga. It's a district in Warsaw like Queens in NYC or Kingston in Jamaica :). It's not safe to move in Praga at night alone. You can get beaten up or even knife in your stomach -.- Yep. That's sad but true.

[@HeWhoSmells]

[@flu0rWTF]

Fu cking awesome!

[@fourdot00]

@Burn2Feel Exactly, the most important part about the song is the metaphorical meaning rather than the effectiveness of the action and acting. Personally, I found it to be a very powerful video that does a good job of conveying the artist's message. Props Qemists, good shit!

[@danboi111]

YES, AMAZING ACTING. the guy jumps before he gets kicked LOVE IT!

[@somerandomguy9942]

@@NeedMoreVodka how about a bit of shut the fuck up?

[@thorin49]

After first few seconds I said to myself "no, it can't be...", because this architecture style looks familiar, but when I saw the number on the wall I laughed "OMG, it is a Warsaw!"... Then I read info... ;D

[@thischosen1]

Nice

[@dy5c0]

i like the song and the video, she kicks their asses.. haha great forget the video, the meaning is great..

[@toontjuh1111]

@spinalrupture hahaha omg i'm glad i'm not the only one o_O the girl immediatly remminded me of her lol

[@madnessOFdementia]

❤❤❤❤❤

[@DnBDaily]

I dunno what they thought about the video, i suppose all will become clear soon , but good song :)

[@SirLoinOfsteak85]

90% of Warsaw was flattened after WW2, it was atrocious what was done there. It's amazing they hung around and rebuilt it at all. I like the place, personally - it has a lot of character, and a surprising amount of greenery, wide boulevards etc. But that architecture - not going anywhere any time soon. You'd have to destroy the city all over again...

[@Kirthert]

@Korppu That said, they probably only had enough filming done for half the video. "Crud, we'll have to go back and make more." one of the editors says. The cameraman says in a rather high pitched voice "aww hell no man, let's just stretch it all out". Yes, they were probably on drugs.. Lots of it, too.

[@azgath]

2:01 - PRALNIA :) ciekawy akcent :P

[@CunningStuntUKg]

best video 2010

[@MrFueler]

Got tired of slo-mo but the fight is really awesome and the sond is nizzle too ^^

[@ProjectRox]

[@Seeme0n]
