For me this song is about a woman who's been used as the therapist by her partner, they were only there because she listened to their vents, they wanted somebody else but couldn't get them so they settled for her.
That happend to me and when they got their "special person" they cheated on me with them and then tried justifying it by saying they got lonely when they themselves blamed me for cheating on them 24/7
the “i know who you pretend i am” line punches me in the gut every time - mitski’s lyricism can be so straightforward and yet carries such an emotional weight
I love the image of the clam & pearl turning to needles & her caressing the lifeless, cold cast of an idealized male figure. I think this song is about lust, but also a deep desire to be accepted & actually loved, to not be the idealized, lifeless statue but the real flesh and blood and flawed self. The sudden change of the pearl to needles shows the hostility and alienation of her sexuality she feels about not being the one he really wants, as she clings to the false image of him.
@@itsrainingmelons6202 Sort of, but I think Mitski's songs are usually a bit more complex than just like, exploit me / exploit him. They tend to be about mutually flawed relationships (i.e. Mitski refuses to see this man for who HE is, and clings to a idealized form even as she desperately wishes he would love her for who SHE is. She is explicitly sexual in this video, but her sexuality is prickly, fickle, hostile -- a pearl turned to needles when you try to touch it. Same with "Nobody" -- it's about isolation that is a result of other people, well, not being around you, but also about isolating yourself. It's reciprocal.) -- IMO, of course.
@@rbartx1690 I think I understand. Cliffnotes edition, She's willing to take anything from somebody who doesn't promise her anything. This is rich in symbolism. Interesting artist.

tiktok has helped me find amazing artists and helped me find some really good songs. it definitely overplays some of them to the point where I don't enjoy the song as much.
I’m getting the impression that this is sung from the perspective of a mistress to a married man, but she’s in love with him while he is only using her for pleasure. “Why not me?” Why won’t he acknowledge their “love” and marry her when he says that he desires her so much. He uses her love to distract himself from his unfulfilling marriage, and therefore he uses her “washing machine heart” (her love and care) to “clean his dirty shoes” (wash away the bitterness he feels from his marriage, but he only uses her for that and nothing more and doesn’t intend to settle down with her).
“Though I’ve closed my eyes I know who you pretend I am” him pretending that he’s getting the pleasure from his wife rather then actually seeing her as a person
you know how in elementary school there's always those people that bang on their tables and sing we will rock you? can this be the new we will rock you please
I believe this song is about a toxic relationship that the singer is blindly unaware of, the singer is going down to the level of an inanimate appliance, like she feels inhuman around them, which she is blindly following, and it says "toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart" which could be a metaphor for the other person taking his emotions out on the singer, which is really sad when peel away the layers
i think she’s aware the relationship is toxic because in the first line she tells him to toss his shoes in her washing machine heart. she knows she’s only being used as his rebound of sorts and the “why not me?” is her asking why she isn’t more than his object to be used. like he’s using her as a stepping stone so he can improve himself for someone else, but not improving himself for her. she’s just a part of his way to get there. at least that’s what i was getting from it.
@@moriahhiggs4604 pretty good analysis, I also have a theory about "I know who you pretend I am" line, maybe the other guy in the relationship was neglected or abused by a important figure in their lives, and is taking their pent-up anger on the singer
@@sparklejumpropequeen5468 I feels like 00’s vibes because of how the lyrics kind of blends in with the rhythm. Kind of like how with some song you make the beat more harsh and the lyrics might be i sync but with music like this the words blend into the beat
Ppl say tiktok always ruin songs but I’m here from tiktok and now I’m like addicted watching it over and over giving her more money- I think tiktok shares songs from underated artist and give them the clout they deserve :)
i agree but its just annoying when you love a really underrated song (just like play date by melanie martinez) then it gets popular and people call it a "tiktok song"
recently i brought up how sad i am that mitski's retired and she convinced me that she actually passed away and I just couldn't accept her death, safe to say I have a grudge against them now.(BTW SHES NOT DEAD SHES ALIVE AND WELL IM SO SORRY FOR PHASING IT THAT WAY)
@@tofu.juice69 she’s actually not retired! she was touring for 5 years straight and never had somewhere to settle in a way. she has a graphic novel with accompanying soundtrack coming out soon! its on preorder and ships this month :)
"why not me?" Imagine someone losing their mind after their heart got played just because someone mistook them as another person. The pain and betrayal that is too realistic for them to handle it.
"I know who you pretend I am" the fact that the singer knew that someone they like doesn't view them as who they are. Rather, as another person who they programmed it into their mind.
@@lightbringer3271 yea theyre representing someone elses grieve and junk which they just dump on her to then feel light hearted and everyones just using her as a machine to vent on to but noone cares about how she herself feels and if shes doing ok
this song really hits so hard, especially the "i know who you pretend i am" and "why not me". i have a childhood friend and we've been close, until we moved to another country and i lost contact with him. years later, we saw each other again. i have always liked him and i never had the chance to confess, so when i saw him again after all these years i decided to just do it. we kissed, then i found out he's still inlove with his ex and told me he still love her. i was so fucking heartbroken and embarrassed. they're happy now, but i still can't get over him.
the thing about this song is that because of the off chords, its not like other music which makes you pay attention to the song and makes it so addictive. Mitski's music is the definition of abstract
I love how the lyrics are so simple yet deep and many people can relate to the hurt feeling of wanting someone who doesn’t feel the same. I certainly can, and sending much love to anyone out there who’s also suffering
Fun fact: I was listening to the song with my ex explaining the deep meaning behind the song to her and in the end she did the exact same thing. Which means she was always somewhere else. She said that everyone has their secrets but I never thought that the secret was that she never gave up on her toxic ex of 4 years relationship. I was just the means of being with him again and choosing him in the end.
Plus she knew mostly everything bout me(everything I've been through) and she promised not to be another one shit-person like the rest but she was one of the worse of the kind.
@@ghostface9047 Oh, man that's rough. I randomly remembered this song and came back to find your comment. I hope things turned around for you. I'm still single, but at least I'm Happy 😂
Theory: "do mi ti" the lyrics used to explain the notes she sings for the next lyrics "why not me" can also be representative of the singer crying. When most people audibly cry its a high pitch or whine (do) followed by an inhale (mi) and another whine (ti). "why not me" could also be viewed as the singer crying them because of the style at which she does so. Okay that's all thank you :)
Sorry English not my first language but I think it also means that her partner doesn’t care much about what she says so to him it sounds like do mi ti when she repeatedly asks him
love how this melody brings me a feeling of 1990-2000s vibe that I experienced in childhood.. I've been missing such "unexpected" chords sequences music for almost 20 years, so tired of simplicity, and this one is brilliant
idk if you like why didn’t you stop me on be the cowboy but i love this song and that one for this very reason, those sounds shes able to make is so brilliant and it makes me feel so nostalgic
Pretty sure the song is about a housewife who wants to be loved by her husband romantically but instead she’s only used for sex and chores. Her husband even thinks about somebody else when he’s having sex with her, and she wishes he cared and thought about her instead of neglecting her emotions.
i haven't focused entirely on the lyrics but i've always assumed it's about someone who wants to be viewed sexually by their partner and have that connection, but their partner doesn't find them attractive in that way and finds someone else to fill those needs. however i really like your theory on this, i think it fits in more with the "washing machine heart" line more. i guess i read that part completely different
For me this song is symbolizing toxic relationships. Her washing machine is her heart. The dirty shoes is her toxic partner and what’s bringing them down. The kiss is symbolizing she keeps letting them in and assissting them so in hopes she can get affection as well. She’s confused on what she’s doing wrong becquse she’s helping in every way and she’s lost in what to do because the damage has been done leading to a never ending cycle. She’s offering everything to them in hopes to feel loved that it’s come to the fact that she wants to be used just for seconds of attention
yeah and she didnt use her usual lipstick so the guy would kiss her thinking its another person (cause he doesnt love her) and the guy pretends that shes another person
I'm half japanese and white and i've always felt like I couldnt fit into either sides and have been insulted for my identity, when I found out about you I have never felt so much comfort in an artist. Halfway through the song I just went into tears because I'm loving the fact someone with my same identity can show off such talent. Your music is so enticing, I'm def listening to more

I'm very glad that my parents and family I'm close with are very supportive. but it's always the older aunts and stuff that make me feel like shit like body shame me and stuff but yeah I've been distancing myself from them and now they are saying that j dont love and appreciate them and that I'm being a bad person when all I'm doing is removing toxic ppl from my life. but I hope everything gets better for u
i’m vietnamese however i feel like i can’t fit into the standards that the western + eastern media tries to portray asian people - i have a big nose, small lips, and tan. i’m extremely conscious about them, and it’s getting very serious and annoying and most likely affecting my mental health. i wish i was east asian. i keep comparing vietnam to east asia, however they’re very similar. but it’s just not enough, why can’t i just be attractive?
I feel like she is talking about how she is being used by everyone around her hence the "washing machine heart" bit and how nobody will really give her a chance hence the "kiss me already" and "I thought we would kiss tonight" bit. I also thought the " kiss me already" bit was how she was desperate for people to see her as more than a stepping stone or a doormat. but the " and toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart" bit was when she finally accepted that, that was what people saw her as. the I know what you pretend I am is how people perceive her as a tool or something to use like a washing machine and the why not me bit is how she thinks she isn't in their league and is just something they can just use and throw away
*I dont really know what the meaning of the song is.. but here is how i see it:* *1. Relationships/love* Doing everything for a person you love or a person youve been together with, but them choosing someone elses over you. "Why not me?": why them and not me even tho i did everything for them "thoss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart": always being there for them but them ignoring you or like i said choose someone else over you. *2. Friendship* Always helping your friends but as soon as you talk about your problems you get ignored or they say "same, i feel you".. again the lyric with the dirry shoes.. washing their dirty shoes: their problems but just being a washing machine, not getting the help you need. / or being in love with your friend *3. How i feel:* My dad is an alcoholic etc and when i see kids with a healthy family or healthy parents relationship i always think "why not me" He also used me to talk about his problems even tho im still a child. *4. i know who you pretend iam:* Having someone who hurts you because of their past trauma, maybe someone that just use you to live their dreams and live or having someone that pretends that youre someone they loved but never got, and you know you never will be enough for them and that its toxic, but still you cant escape. *5. need to be loved* "Why not me": always seing people in a healthy relationship while you cant go into one or always got into unhealthy toxic relationships, also feeling the need no be loved and dreaming about an unhealthy way of love.. example: being stalked, because you think you are not loved enough, so you dream about unhealthy relationships where youre being mistreated, because you also feel empty.. like a nobody
thank you.I feel so grateful I found your comment. The needing to be loved, dreaming about being stalked and emptyness are accurate about me.I could tell you how many times I imagine myself being in an unhealthy relationship and it feel so good, it brings seretonin in my brain I couldn't understand why. Your comment gives me a clear reason and now I hope to work on that. I hope you the best too

Why not me? Do mi ti Why not me? Why not me? Do mi ti Why not me? Why not me?
She has an unreleased song called Cop Car in which she sings "I've loved many boys, I've loved many girls" so uhhhh yeh pretty sure she's in the Bi Squad
The song is called washing machine heart if you listen carefully you can hear the references to heartbeats and washing machines, for examples the heartbeats can be the bangs we heard at the beginning 0:00 and 0:07 and you can hear the washing machine in 0:02 and 2:04, also 0:38 and 1:50 are possibles references to washing machine alarms, mitski music genius Edit: This isnt confirmed its something that I found interesting to point, maybye mitski and producers didnt made it with that intentions.
i discovered this song last night. It popped as a recommendation in my spotify playlist, while I was crying because I always feel the need to fix everyone and that it's my responsibility to find solutions for everyone's problems, it's like if I prepare the world for everyone else but no one does the same effort for me and it's so exhausting to be the friend of the group who's less depressed and carrying everyone, so thank you mitski you appeared at the right time.
I feel the exact same way. I am currently part of a friend group made up of some very mentally unstable people and within this group i am always the one they turn to in times of need and I'm seen as this pinnacle of strength holding everyone up. It's difficult and draining but I always go back to this song when I'm feeling overwhelmed. My friends go to me when they're in need, I go to mitski when I'm in need :") Anyways, I hope you're doing okay. Remember to take care of yourself and set appropriate boundaries when you need to
@@hollygallagher1581 what a waste of time tbh why would ur Friends cry about life they are prob fucking up their own lives because i got some issue to but i dont cry about it 'to my friends and iam doing pretty good in life tbh
@@farmerbeast going to someone for help doesnt equal crying, for one. Nor does it mean they're "crying about life". But have u never heard anyone say, "That was a good cry"? Bc crying can help for others since everyone has their own way of coping/helping themselves. I mean, there is a reason why not being able to cry is apparently one of the worst psychological pains (something along those lines). Or if that's not the right quote, it can still cause some problems/point to problems if ur not able to cry. Bc it's just another way of expression.
@@farmerbeast and when ur mentally unstable that also doesnt mean ur life is automatically being fucked over etc. U can have a perfectly stable life, but ur mental health and own stability is shit. Either way, it depends on what a person does to say "they are prob fucking up their own lives". Going to someone to get the *support* for ur *unstable* health is quite literally doing the exact opposite of fucking up ur life, but instead takes a step in the opposite direction.
for me it kind of incites bad feelings, a feeling of longing. i slept to this when i found out my guinea pig had cancer, i was so burnt out for a few days.
I CANT FIND THE LYRICS IN THE COMMENTS SO HERE U GO Toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart Baby, bang it up inside I'm not wearing my usual lipstick I thought maybe we would kiss tonight Baby will you kiss me already and Toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart Baby, bang it up inside Baby, though I've closed my eyes I know who you pretend I am I know who you pretend I am Do mi ti Why not me?

I love all the songs of Mitski. They transmit peace, sadness, and beautiful sensations, sometimes they give me nostalgia, but it's beautiful. I really hope that Mitski is more recognized because he really deserves it.
I think...When she sings "Toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart", is a metaphor to healing the person she loves; She will help you clean your past, your wrong steps. The dirty shoes: your past, pain, wrong steps. Washing machine heart: Your entire self (or your heart) trying to heal it; Maybe the song is about give your entire yourself to a person and allow them to use you as their pillar to surpass the pain because you love them enough to do it; But in the end, you get rejected, in a agonizing and lonely way. If I'm being dumb in this interpretation, forgive me. Is 00:37 in the evening and I don't have any more braincells. P.S: I don't know why, but this song sounds so deep and touch a place of my heart that I don't existed; It gives me a nostalgic sensation of love in a hurtful way.
Honestly this song literally just gives me the creeps and makes me feel miserable each time I listen to it. I have no idea why, the vibe is incredibly sad and just hopeless altogether like…
I feel that these songs will become the retro ones in the future, and we’re going to feel the nostalgia, the same as our parents do now.

I’m getting the impression that this is sung from the perspective of a mistress to a married man, but she’s in love with him while he is only using her for pleasure. “Why not me?” Why won’t he acknowledge their “love” and marry her when he says that he desires her so much. He uses her love to distract himself from his unfulfilling marriage, and therefore he uses her “washing machine heart” (her love and care) to “clean his dirty shoes” (wash away the bitterness he feels from his marriage, but he only uses her for that and nothing more and doesn’t intend to settle down with her).
Omg wait this is one of the best interpretations
right this is how i see it too
Well she’s in the wrong if she decides to go with a married man regardless of how well their relationship is going.
That really makes sense! I interpret like someone who is used just for pleasure and to hear other people's problems, seen as a friend.
“Though I’ve closed my eyes I know who you pretend I am” him pretending that he’s getting the pleasure from his wife rather then actually seeing her as a person

I believe this song is about a toxic relationship that the singer is blindly unaware of, the singer is going down to the level of an inanimate appliance, like she feels inhuman around them, which she is blindly following, and it says "toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart" which could be a metaphor for the other person taking his emotions out on the singer, which is really sad when peel away the layers
i think she’s aware the relationship is toxic because in the first line she tells him to toss his shoes in her washing machine heart. she knows she’s only being used as his rebound of sorts and the “why not me?” is her asking why she isn’t more than his object to be used. like he’s using her as a stepping stone so he can improve himself for someone else, but not improving himself for her. she’s just a part of his way to get there. at least that’s what i was getting from it.

this song really hits so hard, especially the "i know who you pretend i am" and "why not me". i have a childhood friend and we've been close, until we moved to another country and i lost contact with him. years later, we saw each other again. i have always liked him and i never had the chance to confess, so when i saw him again after all these years i decided to just do it. we kissed, then i found out he's still inlove with his ex and told me he still love her. i was so fucking heartbroken and embarrassed. they're happy now, but i still can't get over him.
Thats fucking hard bro :(

the thing about this song is that because of the off chords, its not like other music which makes you pay attention to the song and makes it so addictive. Mitski's music is the definition of abstract

Sis
Yeah, I kind of had difficulty singing it because of the off chords. But I really like this song because of how she sings it and the lyrics.
I love how the lyrics are so simple yet deep and many people can relate to the hurt feeling of wanting someone who doesn’t feel the same. I certainly can, and sending much love to anyone out there who’s also suffering
Fun fact: I was listening to the song with my ex explaining the deep meaning behind the song to her and in the end she did the exact same thing. Which means she was always somewhere else. She said that everyone has their secrets but I never thought that the secret was that she never gave up on her toxic ex of 4 years relationship. I was just the means of being with him again and choosing him in the end.
Plus she knew mostly everything bout me(everything I've been through) and she promised not to be another one shit-person like the rest but she was one of the worse of the kind.
It’s because they can be interpreted in many different ways!

Theory: "do mi ti" the lyrics used to explain the notes she sings for the next lyrics "why not me" can also be representative of the singer crying. When most people audibly cry its a high pitch or whine (do) followed by an inhale (mi) and another whine (ti). "why not me" could also be viewed as the singer crying them because of the style at which she does so.
Okay that's all thank you :)
Damn this song is really amazing
Wow thats great, loved the theory
Sorry English not my first language but I think it also means that her partner doesn’t care much about what she says so to him it sounds like do mi ti when she repeatedly asks him

Pretty sure the song is about a housewife who wants to be loved by her husband romantically but instead she’s only used for sex and chores. Her husband even thinks about somebody else when he’s having sex with her, and she wishes he cared and thought about her instead of neglecting her emotions.
First :>
i haven't focused entirely on the lyrics but i've always assumed it's about someone who wants to be viewed sexually by their partner and have that connection, but their partner doesn't find them attractive in that way and finds someone else to fill those needs.

@@SueBux it's a reply section no one cares

For me this song is symbolizing toxic relationships. Her washing machine is her heart. The dirty shoes is her toxic partner and what’s bringing them down. The kiss is symbolizing she keeps letting them in and assissting them so in hopes she can get affection as well. She’s confused on what she’s doing wrong becquse she’s helping in every way and she’s lost in what to do because the damage has been done leading to a never ending cycle. She’s offering everything to them in hopes to feel loved that it’s come to the fact that she wants to be used just for seconds of attention
As someone who has been in a toxic relationship, this is 100 true
yeah and she didnt use her usual lipstick so the guy would kiss her thinking its another person (cause he doesnt love her) and the guy pretends that shes another person
@nyak0omt yeah ,,, :
Maybe she knows that in the end her toxic partner only stays because she reminds them of an ex?

I'm half japanese and white and i've always felt like I couldnt fit into either sides and have been insulted for my identity, when I found out about you I have never felt so much comfort in an artist.

I feel like she is talking about how she is being used by everyone around her hence the "washing machine heart" bit and how nobody will really give her a chance hence the "kiss me already" and "I thought we would kiss tonight" bit. I also thought the " kiss me already" bit was how she was desperate for people to see her as more than a stepping stone or a doormat. but the " and toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart" bit was when she finally accepted that, that was what people saw her as. the I know what you pretend I am is how people perceive her as a tool or something to use like a washing machine and the why not me bit is how she thinks she isn't in their league and is just something they can just use and throw away

WTH that’s such a good analysis wow I acc never understood the lyrics until now damn
@@nisargapoudel7985 thank you!!!
I'm pretty sure it's actually about being in love with a man who loves somebody else, and trying to get over it.
*I dont really know what the meaning of the song is.. but here is how i see it:*
*1. Relationships/love*
Doing everything for a person you love or a person youve been together with, but them choosing someone elses over you.
"Why not me?": why them and not me even tho i did everything for them "thoss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart": always being there for them but them ignoring you or like i said choose someone else over you.
*2. Friendship*
Always helping your friends but as soon as you talk about your problems you get ignored or they say "same, i feel you".. again the lyric with the dirry shoes.. washing their dirty shoes: their problems but just being a washing machine, not getting the help you need. / or being in love with your friend
*3. How i feel:*
My dad is an alcoholic etc and when i see kids with a healthy family or healthy parents relationship i always think "why not me"
He also used me to talk about his problems even tho im still a child.
*4. i know who you pretend iam:*
Having someone who hurts you because of their past trauma, maybe someone that just use you to live their dreams and live or having someone that pretends that youre someone they loved but never got, and you know you never will be enough for them and that its toxic, but still you cant escape.
*5. need to be loved*
"Why not me": always seing people in a healthy relationship while you cant go into one or always got into unhealthy toxic relationships, also feeling the need no be loved and dreaming about an unhealthy way of love.. example: being stalked, because you think you are not loved enough, so you dream about unhealthy relationships where youre being mistreated, because you also feel empty.. like a nobody
*5. And the only way for you to feel anything is to be mistreated.

The song is called washing machine heart if you listen carefully you can hear the references to heartbeats and washing machines, for examples the heartbeats can be the bangs we heard at the beginning 0:00 and 0:07 and you can hear the washing machine in 0:02 and 2:04, also 0:38 and 1:50 are possibles references to washing machine alarms, mitski music genius

i discovered this song last night. It popped as a recommendation in my spotify playlist, while I was crying because I always feel the need to fix everyone and that it's my responsibility to find solutions for everyone's problems, it's like if I prepare the world for everyone else but no one does the same effort for me and it's so exhausting to be the friend of the group who's less depressed and carrying everyone, so thank you mitski you appeared at the right time.
I feel the exact same way. I am currently part of a friend group made up of some very mentally unstable people and within this group i am always the one they turn to in times of need and I'm seen as this pinnacle of strength holding everyone up. It's difficult and draining but I always go back to this song when I'm feeling overwhelmed. My friends go to me when they're in need, I go to mitski when I'm in need :")
Anyways, I hope you're doing okay. Remember to take care of yourself and set appropriate boundaries when you need to

@@farmerbeast going to someone for help doesnt equal crying, for one. Nor does it mean they're "crying about life".
But have u never heard anyone say, "That was a good cry"?
Bc crying can help for others since everyone has their own way of coping/helping themselves. I mean, there is a reason why not being able to cry is apparently one of the worst psychological pains (something along those lines). Or if that's not the right quote, it can still cause some problems/point to problems if ur not able to cry.
Bc it's just another way of expression.
@@farmerbeast and when ur mentally unstable that also doesnt mean ur life is automatically being fucked over etc. U can have a perfectly stable life, but ur mental health and own stability is shit.
Either way, it depends on what a person does to say "they are prob fucking up their own lives". Going to someone to get the *support* for ur *unstable* health is quite literally doing the exact opposite of fucking up ur life, but instead takes a step in the opposite direction.

I think...When she sings "Toss your dirty shoes in my washing machine heart", is a metaphor to healing the person she loves; She will help you clean your past, your wrong steps. The dirty shoes: your past, pain, wrong steps. Washing machine heart: Your entire self (or your heart) trying to heal it;
Maybe the song is about give your entire yourself to a person and allow them to use you as their pillar to surpass the pain because you love them enough to do it; But in the end, you get rejected, in a agonizing and lonely way.
If I'm being dumb in this interpretation, forgive me. Is 00:37 in the evening and I don't have any more braincells.
P.S: I don't know why, but this song sounds so deep and touch a place of my heart that I don't existed; It gives me a nostalgic sensation of love in a hurtful way.
