Never related to a song so much in my life. Solitude really is bliss for me and I can't help but always feel out of place in the world...Even if I'm around people I get on with, who I may even share similar interests with, I just feel more comfortable in my own thoughts where I'll never be misunderstood.
actually not, sometimes the acceptance you give is not what you get in return. some people get more comfortable with themselves rather than other people. sometimes you just need to reload and speak to yourself, and being sure that no one is going to hurt you or make you feel like you should not be there, out of place. some people don't get this, bit solitude really is a bliss.

Solitude is absolutely bliss, In this overcumbled society I can't stand the traffic, people, short conversations and the constant bragging of social status. I just want to be alone with my own thoughts.
***** I at one point kept my self secluded from all my friends and family for a good year and a half but then like you said I sort of went insane, I kept thinking I was dying of something and when I went out in public I thought everyone was looking at me and it got pretty bad but having support from friends and family really made it all better for me and I slowly realized all these anxieties was just myself overthinking due to the fact I had no one to talk to about these things and so I came to my own piss poor conclusions. I wish I could say that humans could survive on no human interaction but that couldn't be farther from the truth since we are truly social creatures.
+X Retribution X preach bro but sometimes things swell up so much and my nonchalant act hits the fan and I really go ape shit man...people don't even understand...even though we have the same response to the external world I will never come close to how you feel lol
Everyone keeps asking about the damn dog. It is quite simple (and I paraphrase what someone wrote not so long ago). To extremely introverted people or those with immense social anxiety solitude IS bliss... Now a dog personifies love, adoration and support (even if it's unreciprocated). Realise that the message behind the scene is that the guy has so much social anxiety that he pushes away not only strangers (the crowd) but also those who love and support him (the dog).
what would the connection be between the social anziety be to the "accident" seen in the begining. Do you think maybe it could be more like loss, coping with death of loved one, and alienation? "You could never come colse to how I feel"What do you think?
My mom always complains about how I isolate myself, she never understand that I feel better alone most of time, I can have fun with me and pass a good time. Literally “there’s a party in my head and no one is invited”
thank god someone actually put it into words about how i always feel. it's even better because it's a song and somehow i find the music video very relatable. it feels really good when you know there are people out there who feel the same way.
I interpret this song and music video into this: Being a loner can be difficult. it feels like the whole world is against you. and you are truly following your OWN path if you walk alone. "all the kids making friends like they are supposed to"
I think that's too basic an explanation. "There's a party in my head and no one's invited" is the joy he can get in solitude, hence the dancing too (when alone). Not saying you're wrong just saying there's more to this song than just that line and the concepts that go with it. Also, where is the bit about following your own path bit coming from?
The first time i realized being alone feels so good was in highschool, i was coming home and decided to stop near the local lake and my god theres no better feeling than solitude
some people only feel safe when they are alone, and that's a big sign of early childhood abuse and neglect/lack of love. Of course there's introverts who simply need more time alone. With my therapist's guidance I drew all of the things in my life that take energy or give me energy. Socializing takes energy. While solitude, prayer, eating healthy, nature walks, singing, learning something interesting and doing something creative brings energy. My therapist recommended deciding how many social outings would be a healthy goal for each week. 2-3 outings was my gut feeling. Setting that limit has been life changing. I now know that I have a way to prevent social burn out. But I still think it's important to know that it's not healthy to only feel safe when you're alone. if you feel that way, I pray that God will bring you safe and kind friends whom you can learn to trust 😊❤🙏
For those of us that enjoy solitude and for everyone who is in isolation. Don't feel alone. You're not. Many people feel the same way and are sharing your experience 😚
I just heard this song the other day and it really changed my entire outlook. I'm extremely introverted and had been getting really self-conscious of how I don't have as much fun around people as others, and I am probably boring to be around because I'm in my head. This song made me realize that being an introvert isn't just okay. Its great. All I need for a really good weekend is a few albums or a guitar to play, maybe some video games, and a bit of weed. Extroverts will never know the euphoria and relaxation introverts feel when can be alone and do what they like.
I'm so happy in my head that I've caught myself getting upset about having to give my time to people. The only issue is that I still crave occasional attention but I don't get that when I'm so isolated.
The clip just before the dog gets bopped perfectly captures the feeling of anxiety that encompasses "everything get the fuck away from me" that I have a sense many of us can relate to all too well. If you're reading this, I hope you experience peace today
I remember the first time that I heard this... 2010. Lots have changed since then, but Tame Impala stills part of my life. Love you, Kevin. Thx for being the only one that could understand my head and express how I felt through your music.
Walking through a packed club/bar on acid feels exactly like this. And finding that open space to breathe literally feels like solitude. Even though youre still surrounded by people.
(don't thank me, I'm posting these lyrics for myself, so I can read them while listening to this amazing song) Cracks in the pavement underneath my shoe I care less and less about and less about you No one else around to look at me So I can look at my shadow as much as I please All the kicks that I can't compare to Making friends like you're all supposed to You will never come close to how I feel You will never come close to how I feel Space around me where my soul can breathe I've got body that my mind can leave Nothing else matters, I don't care what I miss Company's okay, solitude is bliss There's a party in my head and no one is invited And you will never come close to how I feel You will never come close to how I feel Movement doesn't flow quite like it does when I'm alone I'll be the one who's free You and all your friends can watch me, today Don't ask me how you're supposed to feel You will never come close to how I feel You will never come close to how I feel You will never come close to how I feel You will never come close to how I feel
I have loved this song for years now and am finally seeing the video for it. My interpretation is that this man is an empath and he feels bombarded and beat up by other people's energy, even the dog...when he's alone by himself he is the happiest
I just remembered when I was younger I would spend a lot of time alone on our family property listening to the voices in my head, Including weekends when mum and Dad were at home. Eventually I came to the conclusion telepathy isn't real based on observations and interactions. At this point solitude became bliss.
It shows “kick the dog syndrome” about when someone feels powerless in their crappy life they go home and kick the dog because dog won’t say anything. It’s about taking your frustrations out on someone simply because they’re around. It’s really about hating yourself and punishing someone around you for being around you.
Saw them on SNL last night. Started searching them up & Every song is...well, I haven't heard a bad one yet. What an incredible band!! So thankful to find them. This is exactly what I needed thank you thank you

if anyone has ever done acid and listened to this song, I'm sure they'd agree the line 'you will never come close to how I feel' is one of the most significant lines they will ever hear.
I love being friendless by choice, you will never know how great and drama free it is, no lies, no envy, no broken promises, no stupid drama, no lies, no treason, just peace, joy, and doing the things you love on your own, Solitude is great and is clever to be this way, mostly frindships i see are so fake and hypocritical, and this song is my kinda anthem.🖤🖤🖤
Took a job that ended up sucking the marrow of life out me all the while moving to a city that seemed lawless and teeming with time and despair. A mistake was made and I was stuck. I was at some local record store and this was playing. I bought the album and played it everyday in my car or in my “design space” aka crap cubicle until the day I said FKit and threw my stuff in my car and simply left. Cross country back home. Tame Impala played all the way home. Thank you, Kevin and company for helping me keep it together when everything thing else was falling apart.
Amazing song, amazing video, amazing band. Finally got to see them last night and they were jawdropping. Seriously, they are up there with the great bands of all time for me. Unbelievably good.
This video is, on an emotional level, my basic experience of life. The struggle to work on the metro every day has become hell. I spent two months locked inside my flat in Barcelona in 2020 and apart from missing nature and running, it's the happiest I'd been in years. I felt reborn.
Hey question, in the 0:46 part (and the repetitions) is there like a bass in the left doing like some really high notes? Because if there are they dont play them live :(
This is one of those videos I play for my best friends. I got my own interpretation of it, but everyone I´ve played it for loves it. It´s a beautiful video to an amazing track. Please give us more.
How I interpret this song: So the man is Dealing with some sort of mental illness and the people represent the struggle he constantly has to push through and when he finally gets through all the struggle he has peace/ solitude and solitude is bliss
@Cleopatri He didn't really punch the dog at the end, fyi, nor was the dog hurt when he was pushed away. 1. he was trained to do things like that and 2. He's a very big dog, and it takes a lot more than that to hurt him.
FYI, this was shot in Kyiv, Ukraine. (former capital and motherland of what is known as russia nowadays). Here's the place at 0:30 www.google.com.ua/maps/@50.4045605,30.5171642,3a,75y,127.8h,92.74t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1snRRI1G5KzhO31QjHzoUqrA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656
I always took this song as ironic, especially when coupled with the music video. (Being alone results in being disconnected from the world in a way that’s disorienting and brings out our darker, cynical sides) IDK, does anyone else read it this way or is it just me?
When looking at the lyrics from other Tame Impala songs, I think one can read it as an inner conflict on how to feel about the state of being alone. Sometimes one just needs the time to look into oneself and forget about the outside world which may result in bliss, but sometimes it can result in all the things you mentioned above (I hope that makes sense :D)

The dog isnt really playing though. Its being rough. Its not loving him. its borderline biting him.
He pushed him away bending his leg back giving the impression of force being used, and the slow motion camera emphasizes on that. Don´t worry.

someone please explain to me the meaning of this vid
ECW Platinum
guy doesn't like people; guy is happy when alone so confettis; guy is unhappy when not alone so he is stressed
A man is so angry about other people being alive that he beats up a dog before being mobbed.
My fav part is "There's a party in my head and no one is invited." Classic. Original. Truth.
The dog is symbolism for unconditional love. Solitude is polar opposite of unconditional love, hence he pushes the dog away using violence.
Listening to this band's songs for the first time is surreal... Thanks Tame Impala for existing.

Classic Impala videos need to be treasured!
"There's a party in my head, and no one is invited". The story of my life.
this video is about how other people are uncomfortable to be around and they seem to just push us in different directions we don't wanna go in.
It shows “kick the dog syndrome” about when someone feels powerless in their crappy life they go home and kick the dog because dog won’t say anything. It’s about taking your frustrations out on someone simply because they’re around. It’s really about hating yourself and punishing someone around you for being around you.

I love being friendless by choice, you will never know how great and drama free it is, no lies, no envy, no broken promises, no stupid drama, no lies, no treason, just peace, joy, and doing the things you love on your own, Solitude is great and is clever to be this way, mostly frindships i see are so fake and hypocritical, and this song is my kinda anthem.🖤🖤🖤
Hello dear, how’re you doing today?
it’s nice meeting you on here
Took a job that ended up sucking the marrow of life out me all the while moving to a city that seemed lawless and teeming with time and despair. A mistake was made and I was stuck. I was at some local record store and this was playing. I bought the album and played it everyday in my car or in my “design space” aka crap cubicle until the day I said FKit and threw my stuff in my car and simply left. Cross country back home. Tame Impala played all the way home. Thank you, Kevin and company for helping me keep it together when everything thing else was falling apart.
Amazing song, amazing video, amazing band. Finally got to see them last night and they were jawdropping. Seriously, they are up there with the great bands of all time for me. Unbelievably good.
This video is, on an emotional level, my basic experience of life. The struggle to work on the metro every day has become hell. I spent two months locked inside my flat in Barcelona in 2020 and apart from missing nature and running, it's the happiest I'd been in years. I felt reborn.

"They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils"
“I gazed and gazed but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought”
This song and clip accurately portray my anxiety when around people and how wonderful I feel when alone.
anyone noticed the guy's hand went straight through the woman's head at 3.12?
Yeah, and he looked appalled. Germ-a-phobe, maybe?
i think that the point of that is to show that he is literally losing his mind when people are around
and abviously he's very displeased with that
3:10 thank me later.
Wow!

All the bullshit and people you go through become nothing, but yesterday's news no matter how much pain you endured. I like this message.
This is the most awesome song Ive heard in the last 10 years
I just lol'ed that the song about you never come close to how ill feel perfectly describes how i feel lol. Kevin is a brilliant genius

Great Drummer!!! I play drums for whole my life but when i hear this 60'ties drumsound... absolutely great sound & playing love it
This video in combination with music/lyrics really transmit distress... absolutely suggestive. Admiration for the author.
Admiration for your beauty
Sandor Clegane Thank you very much for your kind words :)
Can we be boyfriend and girlfriend now?
Hey question, in the 0:46 part (and the repetitions) is there like a bass in the left doing like some really high notes? Because if there are they dont play them live :(
i beleive it to be intentional that it looks like he is swimming up stream. going the hard way even when 'people' go the otherway
Off course it is. :)
ten years later and this is still my favorite music video of the last ten years
Why does that specific shot at 1:14 work so well with that specific part of the song? Aestheticc af
Disclaimer:
No dogs were actually hurt in the making of this awesome, psychedelic video.
what
i hope
This is one of those videos I play for my best friends. I got my own interpretation of it, but everyone I´ve played it for loves it. It´s a beautiful video to an amazing track. Please give us more.
That is Kyiv, baby
How I interpret this song: So the man is Dealing with some sort of mental illness and the people represent the struggle he constantly has to push through and when he finally gets through all the struggle he has peace/ solitude and solitude is bliss
Today during my maths exam(board exam), my mind just was on a loop. Singing this inside my head. Pretty sure i failed the test.
Damn..
Don't worry buddy, Solitude is bliss.
What were the marks ?
Tame Impala described my life in a 3 minute video....Bravo!!!!
He’s filming a war in the street of Kiev, it’s remind me something 🥲
Kieven Parker
@Cleopatri He didn't really punch the dog at the end, fyi, nor was the dog hurt when he was pushed away. 1. he was trained to do things like that and 2. He's a very big dog, and it takes a lot more than that to hurt him.

Props to the cameraman for getting this all on camera!
you can be by yourself among others.
one who has a problem being whole among people, is not better than someone who is not whole on his own.
que deus abençoe essa bendita música.
"there's a Party in my head, and no one is invited" yep, i really felt that line
i don't care what i miss
company is ok
solitude is bliss

Quarantine mood 🦠
Hello dear, how’re you doing today?

His dance is super cool:D
Every time I listen to it I burst into tears, I don't know if it's bc I feel intimately represented or if I simply don't want to accept my reality
Im the same way
Keep listening and keep crying and your answers will set you free ❤
this song makes me oh so happy😁☺😎
you might like The Doublejumps if you like this
Most underrated song by Kevin that has a music video. Cannot tell me otherwise.
Back on 2011-2014 this was considered one of their best. It’s crazy how many people don’t know it now
Huge props to the actor btw
If I didn't have anxiety before, this video definitely gave it to me
Demasiado adelantado para su época.....
Este sonido, este bip..
Podria entrar 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019..... booooom
FYI, this was shot in Kyiv, Ukraine.
(former capital and motherland of what is known as russia nowadays).
Here's the place at 0:30

This song is so good! definitely relatable
there's just something really pink floyd about them...its amazing
During any part of a psychedelic high this song will most likely help in one way or another
Introverts unite! I mean.. don't
Stephen Markelov ahha
Haha, jaja, yaya
hol up
YES
Introverts uni- wait that’s illegal
Favourite band in the world! These lyrics!! No sad tone.
God how i love this clip
i just love that use of pan at the beginning. so well done
i can so relate to this perception of reality. not in a good way but... cool: an empowering song about it.
I remember watching this videoclip on MTV in 2010, no wondering Tame Impala would become such a success nowadays
the guy transforms to thom yorke at 2:43!
6 millions plays exactly 10 years later!
Such underrated song.
Excelente canción... Tame Impala lo mejor
The song has been in my replay loop for about 200 times... simply amazing
I always took this song as ironic, especially when coupled with the music video. (Being alone results in being disconnected from the world in a way that’s disorienting and brings out our darker, cynical sides)
IDK, does anyone else read it this way or is it just me?
When looking at the lyrics from other Tame Impala songs, I think one can read it as an inner conflict on how to feel about the state of being alone. Sometimes one just needs the time to look into oneself and forget about the outside world which may result in bliss, but sometimes it can result in all the things you mentioned above (I hope that makes sense :D)
keven parker does really good at his tame impala music videos
holy shit! I didn't know tame impala had music videos to their songs. :O
Anthem of the year
this songs title is now more true than ever
Lol true enough
This is tame impala most underated song period. Its so good but doesnt attention like other song.
