  • The Frank Ocean - Blonde Tribute is a tumble down the "rabbit hole" into sight, sound, and color. Get lost in the sprawling colorful landscapes of Hayao Miyazaki and through the dark and twisted streets of Katsuhiro Otomo's Neo Tokyo. These worlds breathe life into Frank Ocean's symphonic soundscapes.
    Films: Akira, Spirited Away, Castle in the Sky
    Music: Frank Ocean Blonde

    I used to fall asleep to this every night during a rough part of my life. It's no longer just an incredible and calming AMV to me, it's fully engrained into the story of my life and no matter how long I go without watching/listening to it, the Toho Scope visual with the opening chords to Seigfried will ALWAYS send chills down my spine. Not to mention the life changing effect Castle in the Sky had on my childhood, I wish I could have this video play constantly in my mind.

      Crazy how we feel exactly the same about this masterpiece. I really used to watch this video almost every day in 2017, it feels good to dwell in the nostalgia. I went through extremely tough times aswell back then but somehow they dont seem so bad looking bad, i catch myself romanticizing those times of loss and heartbreak every now n then even though im in a much better place now... weird right? I think its cause i wouldnt be the person who i am today without those experiences so im kind of proud of it. I hope youre doing better aswell, much love from someone whos probably just like you.

      I felt the same when I started listening to close to you in blonde. My aunt used to sing the original song to me before she started acting indifferent due to family issues. Close to you really made me remember the good times and really helped me push through a tough time. I love Close to you and the stevie wonder cover of it. Both will always have a special place in my heart 🤧🥹

  • @connorwright9929
    @connorwright9929 Год назад +399

    It’s been 6 years since this album was released. I’ve listened to this a countless amount, with each listen slightly altered from the last. When this masterpiece was originally released, I used to listen to it as a 17 year old, often in tears, to direct my thoughts through a hard breakup, to clear my mind, to take me away from the noise of life around me. The whole experience I get when listening to the album has slowly morphed from a place of seclusion a depression through to a place of contemplation and, now I’m in a great place in life, it’s an opportunity for reflection and appreciation of just how much has changed since I was that struggling 17 year old.
    I think the subjectivity of the whole album is what so many people resonate with, it has turned into a soundtrack for a chapter in so many peoples lives because Frank has created this experience that has just enough vagueness and mystery for you to fill the gaps with your own experiences, and I think that’s why when I listen to the album now, it’s such a contrasting experience for me from when I first listened to it as an adolescent.

    The first time I listened to Siegfried I was on the subway in Chicago. I had just moved there. I was staring out the window at the city skyline and the sparks from the metal wheels flickered on all the brick buildings. The lyric "I've been living in an idea from another man's mind" always gives me chills. That song transported me to another world. I love how powerful this album is.

      Yeah, it's from the Japanese movie "Akira" that was released in 1988. One of my favorite films of all time! Also, "Castle In the Sky" is showed in the video too!

    • @BenjerminGaye
      @BenjerminGaye 7 лет назад +46

      creamycazz1 Akira is the one with the neo Tokyo setting.
      Laputa: Castle in the Sky is the one with the boy and girl in the kite/glider.
      Spirited Away is the one with the Dragon, and the Bathhouse.
      All 3 are considered to be amongst the best animated films to come out of the East, on par with Disney's best with the west ( Lion king, Sleeping beauty etc)

  • @joosse9217

    This video just took me back to the most magical memory, it's like I'm reliving it.
    About a year ago, when I was 16, I was going through one of those weird parts in youth where you just feel lost, but looking back it's as if every day had incredible significance. It's weird. But I had discovered Frank recently and was absolutely addicted to blonde. It was summer, and I was looking at cinemaclock trying to find a movie me and my best friend could see for a night I had off work. We had been watching some of the classic studio Ghiblis recently, and I was shocked to see Akira playing at a theatre in downtown, at 11 or 12 at night. I was hyped, and my friend was in. However, the night of the movie, he cancelled on me for whatever reason. I was disappointed, but on a whim I decided to still go. I convince my parents to let me go despite the pouring rain, and I drive there. It's a really weird new indie theatre, and there's pretty few people there. Anyway the movie was a blur but I remember watching it and coming out almost in a daze, back into the rain very late at night. I took a very long way home under the city lights, and I listened to blonde and another album, then layed awake in bed for most of the rest of the night thinking existential thoughts, trying to figure the point of Akira out. I don't know why this felt so significant, but I just felt the weight of the world and the joy of life and the blessing of youth and idk, I felt like I had experienced something special. Everything was so perfect it was like cliche. Thinking back it's something more than nostalgia, I can't say what it is but this video perfectly captures it and brings the memory back to me. Thankyou

    Can't belive I've only just found this. This is so perfect, it honestly made me cry. The first time I listened to this album, I was on a coach journey in Japan. This video encapsulates that memory so well. Takes me back to a simpler time... before I had any experience with all the things teenage life brings with it. Sometimes I think blond was a warning to my younger self, Frank was trying to caution me.
    I can no longer listen to blond casually, it's a once a month experience. I brew tea, sit at the end of my bed, and listen to it start to finish. I find it hard not to shed a tear at certain points (cough cough seigfried cough)

    Me and my gf at the time would always have this playing in the background practically all the time. Every time I listen to this, it brings back so many good memories... I will always love you Maria thank you for teaching me what love is.

      definitely not an ocean fan, so you went for the most popular song.

      Anim Jock or maybe they just really liked the song?😂

      Anim Jock Hes allowed to like nights. It doesnt mean he isnt a “real fan”. We are all here for the same reason and thats the art. Lets focus on that. Nights is great and very vulnerable/honest song. I just think seigfired is more so.
