She said in an interview that she had never done a country song but always wanted to do one for fun. That's probably the closest she'll ever get to a country song with this one... and it's awesome of course.
I always liked this song because it cheered me up. At some point I began thinking about the lyrics and realized how absolutely amazing they are! How Grimes takes the situation that's supposedly the worst scenario, "the belly of the beast", and transforms it into something really amazing! "We cut out their eyes and we dance like angels do... We never get sad and we never get sick and we never get weak, we're deep in the belly of the beat..." we're deep in the belly of all the amazing music... How incredible is that?! In this song Grimes prooved to me how great she really is and how she wants to make people's lives better.
you beautifully put the feelings and thoughts that i had when i heard that song years ago into words(which i really struggle with most of the time) thanks :)
This is one of the most visually pleasing music videos I've ever seen. The dance of bold colours and lucid movements against dramatic, natural terrain - the movement against stillness that makes you want to focus on the dancer and the world behind them. It's true beauty.
Who else can say they've followed this creative genius since Geidi Primes/Halfaxa? This Queen has been pouring her soul out for us for over a decade now!
I found this song when I was pregnant with my daughter and so extremely sick I couldn’t get out of bed. This song got me through a hard time and it will always bring tears to my eyes. So beautiful and powerful
This is such an amazing tribute to Kate Bush! Not just the video but the vocals and the production. It's uncanny how she gets some of Kate's vocal eccentricities almost exactly. Grimes is a genius!
@@sachalebabe oh please the dress and wig is a clear homage to Kate, but Grimes has her own Grimes-style and that's what makes her such an interesting musician
@@luigiiodice3517 The dress and hair (I don't think it's a wig!) do not look to me like a homage to Kate Bush but rather just as Grimes! They do not look like Kate Bush except the color of the dress maybe. Grimes took 11 years of ballet, is very passionate about dance and has her own unique style and character. Grimes is a dancer in own right and just becaus her dress is the same color as Kate's, doesn't mean anything!
@@sachalebabe of course Grimes has a unique style of her own, but if I remember correctly her real hair during the time of this video was blonde and short so I guess it was a wig, also, Kate Bush or not, let's agree that both this song and its video are pretty much awesome
@@luigiiodice3517 Dear, Grimes can change hair color, style and length within days... Sorry for getting upset it just made me angry people would think this video is a tribute to Kate Bush when it's actually Grimes who's a lso a dancer herself and has a unique special style of her own. The truth is, Grimes does mention Kate Bush as one of her influences so maybe she was some what of an inspiration on her but still, I believe Grimes is Grimes and she mentions other unique , eccentric, artists as influences. All and all, I honestly think this is Grimes and not a homage to anyone else! Yes, I agree, the song and video are awsome! Thanks.
@@ekorobo2082 after some reading, I can conclude that she is indeed gender-neutral, as that's what it means when you can be addressed with all pronouns. These people can still go by she/he/they. She's clearly very aware of the importance of pronouns, and that's great for the rest of the trans community.
I'm late to the Grimes party as well and now all her songs are stuck in my head on repeat. This week my favorite it is Belly of the Beat and Butterfly. It's funny too bc the songs of hers I heard and didn't catch my attention at first are now the songs I'm obsessed with and can't stop listening to.
Right?! I started to listening to her music this September and I am totally hooked. I am inspired by her music as well as her a person. She is life-changing.
One of the top rated comments in Delete Forever was something like "Grimes invented space country and I was there to witness it", I thought that was fitting for this song as well
grimes is truly one of a kind. Someone might come along and create music of similar sounds but she’s just magic, always will make me feel happy and magical myself when I listen to her.
As a very sad, very sick, very weak person, this song holds a Bitter Sweet Melancholy Joy for me that makes me long for strong, healthy, happy days far off in the past and future, hopefully. Love you Goth Enya 💚🔥🖤
Update 9/27/22: ty all for being so sweet! Justo had my annual check up and i'm still tumor free 🙂🤘 ---I had a health scare last month, i found out i had a tumor that had to be removed asap, and i listened to this song every day until surgery day finally came. The lyrics "Everybody dies, we appoint their eyes and we dance like angels do / Writing out your name, little shapes that feign some knowledge of you / And you never get sad / And you' never get sick /And you never get weak" made me feel so much better somehow, like I dunno, they gave me hope. Anyways, happy to still be here listening to grimes :)
"And you never get sad, and you never get sick, and you never get weak...... in the belly of the beat..." That's the magic of music, that it can often lift you out of whatever physical or mental state you may be in, at least momentarily, if not longer.
Eh, eh eh Ooh, ooh Eh, eh eh Ooh, ooh Eh, eh eh Ooh, ooh I, I've been thinking, I've been thinking I, I could leave the world today Everybody dies, we appoint their eyes and we dance like angels do Writing out your name, little shapes that feign some knowledge of you And you never get sad And you' never get sick And you never get weak, we're deep In the belly of the beat, yeah! I, I've been thinking, I've been thinking I, I could leave the world today Everybody dies, we cut out their eyes and we dance like angels do Writing out a name, little words that feign some knowledge of you And you never get sad And you' never get sick And you never get weak, we're deep In the belly of the beat, yeah!
quiero producir música y tú eres uno de mis modelos a seguir , estoy carente de dinero hahahah las cosas no van tan bien y me refugió en tu música .Tu me haces pensar que todo es posible gracias por existir.
This is my favorite song forever n ever ! Override all my life playlist ++++ times 5 replay over n over on way to work! I hear the music in my head all day!! I luv this song forever!! 😺😺 Thank u for sharing ur art! Ur the best
We're pretty lucky to have a human who can take their painful life experiences and make beautiful art. I mean, I used to hate her music but it was ignorance to what she's about. I wish I could turn grief, loneliness and feeling like an outcast into something that makes people feel everything but. After seeing the art from Grimes getting more into the world of tech, Id kill to see her get into The tradegy of the commons, Thomas Malthus and the theories of whether technology aids human evolution particularly in regard to resources, or if it just helps us to wreck ourselves quicker. What is 'good', social concious and how people without it usually take more resources to those with social conscious and how that impacts our altruism as a species. Also break a song down into the arguments for human breeding to stop. That's be awesome, but probably can't since she's pregnant lol
… and so… “👇” there we have it! I have RE-LIKED & Watched all my GRIMES vids!! (must have changed my Channel name or smthn😏 lol). But regardless… Im JUST HAPPY to be here… Thanks for doing YOU Grimes/Claire, Ive introduced my niece to your work & Im just so PROUD to have such a Beautiful, Unique and Creative Artist such as Yourself out there these days. Ugh! Our future IS Lit ✨ And I do believe that with all my heart. Cheers for now and we’ll catch y’all out there.✌️😝!! XxOx
I won't forgive her for saying this album was a piece of crap. And people argued SO MUCH about how this "wasn't Grimes" but the idea that artists can only come in a few shades of their own is boring. This album is timeless and gorgeous, and very much sounds like Grimes. I can't imagine why she hates it so much.
[Intro] Eh, eh eh Ooh, ooh Eh, eh eh Ooh, ooh [Verse 1] I, I've been thinking, I've been thinking I, I could leave the world today Everybody dies, we anoint their eyes and we dance like angels do Writing out your name, little shapes that feign some knowledge of you [Chorus] And you'll never get sad and you'll never get sick And you'll never get weak We're deep In the belly of the beat, yeah! [Verse 2] I, I've been thinking, I've been thinking I, I could leave the world today Everybody dies, we cut out their eyes and we dance like angels do Making our name in a world that feigns some knowledge of you [Chorus] And you'll never get sad and you'll never get sick And you'll never get weak We're deep In the belly of the beat, yeah!
I am so late to this party but Im glad regardless that I found my way to Grimes
same
Same
Been listening for years I never thought people would actually find this gem of an artist so enjoy
I listening this in 2016 and don't care about this art. But NOW I AM IN LOVE all this album is so great
ive been a fan for 8 years :00
She said in an interview that she had never done a country song but always wanted to do one for fun. That's probably the closest she'll ever get to a country song with this one... and it's awesome of course.
Delete Forever is now
California?
Delete Forever is out and is a bit closer to country imo. She did great. She's really a creative genius and I'm envious as hell.
yeah delete forever basically is country
Michel Julien and then she released delete forever...
I always liked this song because it cheered me up. At some point I began thinking about the lyrics and realized how absolutely amazing they are! How Grimes takes the situation that's supposedly the worst scenario, "the belly of the beast", and transforms it into something really amazing! "We cut out their eyes and we dance like angels do...

lmao I'm now realizing the lyrics and that bea"s"t lul
Don't metaphorically cut your eyes out. Or they'll getchya...
@@Mareezyweezy It's a way of speach. People know it means that we're beautiful.
you beautifully put the feelings and thoughts that i had when i heard that song years ago into words(which i really struggle with most of the time) thanks :)
I love this crazy,quirky, brilliant,talented girl who isn't afraid to be herself.
This is one of the most visually pleasing music videos I've ever seen. The dance of bold colours and lucid movements against dramatic, natural terrain - the movement against stillness that makes you want to focus on the dancer and the world behind them. It's true beauty.
Man Grimes is the first artist I wanna binge listen to Her songs give me such good vibes like none other
OMG i can't believe this....The montain on the clip is 10 km away from my house (Les Rochers de Nayes in Switzerland).
When I saw it first I was 100% sure It's Swiss
It’s nice. But I don’t undastan’ it. Why not use Canadian mountains?
Me everytime I see someone shoot a video on the Big Island of Hawaii. Lol
10km pretty far tbh
Nice :)
Who else can say they've followed this creative genius since Geidi Primes/Halfaxa? This Queen has been pouring her soul out for us for over a decade now!
I have since around 2012 I found her music ❤🎉
I found this song when I was pregnant with my daughter and so extremely sick I couldn’t get out of bed. This song got me through a hard time and it will always bring tears to my eyes. So beautiful and powerful
criminally underrated
SO RIGHT.
Fr
They just don’t get it
Except that it's not
It's heartbreaking how underrated she is but don't say it's too late, she's gonna be remembered as a genius so ahead of time
This is such an amazing tribute to Kate Bush! Not just the video but the vocals and the production. It's uncanny how she gets some of Kate's vocal eccentricities almost exactly. Grimes is a genius!

THIS WOMAN. Freshest breath of air. -*New Grimes superfan*
Grimes is gender neutral
@@jacycorn no she isnt, she has just said she doesnt care what pronouns people use
@@ekorobo2082 oh really? I thought I read that some years ago. thanks for correcting me
Angelina no problem, the media kind a goes crazy with misconstruing a lot of stuff that she says :/

i only discovered her recently, and I can't put into words just how much of a life changing experience her sound has been for me. i love you grimes 👽
Right?! I started to listening to her music this September and I am totally hooked. I am inspired by her music as well as her a person. She is life-changing.
X2 i'm obssesed 💗
Just discovered her during quarantine in 2020. Starting with 'Violence'. She's already one of my favorite artists.
Me too ❤
One of the top rated comments in Delete Forever was something like "Grimes invented space country and I was there to witness it", I thought that was fitting for this song as well
And with the song California by grimes
That's Rad!❤
grimes is truly one of a kind. Someone might come along and create music of similar sounds but she’s just magic, always will make me feel happy and magical myself when I listen to her.
She had me clear back at Geidi Primes.
@@jokerace8227 I think that's one of her best works, definitely a favorite. Caladan and zoal are nothing short of ethereal.
music saves my life everyday
We all.
As a very sad, very sick, very weak person, this song holds a Bitter Sweet Melancholy Joy for me that makes me long for strong, healthy, happy days far off in the past and future, hopefully. Love you Goth Enya 💚🔥🖤
sporkazm Goth Enya?
@@asian6oy perhaps reminds them of a darker, i.e. 'goth' version of Enya, who is another artist with an ethereal voice.
I barely understand a word of her songs, but I guess others reads lyrics?
Hoping you're well 🙏💜💙💜💙💜
Bless you my friend
Enya is the original angel with the most beautiful ethereal voice.
From start to end this album is so beautifully crafted, unimaginable production and vision that's Grimes at her best
I think it's no coincidence I stumbled across this after two days of listening to Wuthering Heights on repeat.
shes one of the best producers of all times and her vocals are other worldly, perfection.
Update 9/27/22: ty all for being so sweet! Justo had my annual check up and i'm still tumor free 🙂🤘 ---I had a health scare last month, i found out i had a tumor that had to be removed asap, and i listened to this song every day until surgery day finally came.

Anyways, happy to still be here listening to grimes :)
Tumors are scary, congrats!!
slay queen
Your story is inspiring, I hope you never lose that light and spread it everywhere!!
I can’t believe this is her least favorite album
Ana you’re amazing keep going!!
"And you never get sad, and you never get sick, and you never get weak...... in the belly of the beat..." That's the magic of music, that it can often lift you out of whatever physical or mental state you may be in, at least momentarily, if not longer.
歌詞も歌もカッコいい!
そして、かわいい。
このPVのように、
生きていたいと思わせる。
自由を感じる。
I dream I live freely, like this PV's dancing.
I never understood why I liked this song so much it's just a wave and I cant control myself. Pure fun.
This is the most ASMR song I've ever heard. My ears (the outside parts of them) feel like they're somehow merging with the music.
That’s how I feel about all of her songs!
This is the first time listening to this song with headphones and I was noticing the ASMR effect, too!
hands down my fave music video been coming back to this for like 5 years now
She's so talented and beautiful
Idk why this song makes me nostalgic, I reminisce childhood, I cherish innocence, feel a sense of Freedom.
someone: what´s your favorite Grimes song?
me: yes
Lol I don't think I've ever seen a more perfect comment.
@@benjaminjohn9535 thx
:-)
exactly!
Wow this blew up lol
One of her best music videos, IMO. I’m always amazed and awed at her artistic vision; it is beautiful and unique!
Eh, eh eh
Ooh, ooh
Eh, eh eh
Ooh, ooh
Eh, eh eh
Ooh, ooh
I, I've been thinking, I've been thinking
I, I could leave the world today
Everybody dies, we appoint their eyes and we dance like angels do
Writing out your name, little shapes that feign some knowledge of you
And you never get sad
And you' never get sick
And you never get weak, we're deep
In the belly of the beat, yeah!
I, I've been thinking, I've been thinking
I, I could leave the world today
Everybody dies, we cut out their eyes and we dance like angels do
Writing out a name, little words that feign some knowledge of you
And you never get sad
And you' never get sick
And you never get weak, we're deep
In the belly of the beat, yeah!
Rip to my luttle dog. May she always be in the belly of the beat, safe, running around in heaven and happpy. ❤
This song makes me feel things ❤
My favorite moment of this song is 2:22 when those magic voices come together
The shots in this music video are stunning
im obsessed with that song. simply attractive, inclusive.
everybody dies, we cut out their eyes and we dance like angels do
2:12 - SHOUT OUT TO THE CAMERMAN!
hahahahahaha
1:47 as well. It’s like the musical version of ‘where’s Wally?’
His name is Mac, it’s Claire’s bro
Best comment lol
1.48 hello.
This is still my favorite song from her. ❤
I LOVE her hair in this!
quiero producir música y tú eres uno de mis modelos a seguir , estoy carente de dinero hahahah las cosas no van tan bien y me refugió en tu música .Tu me haces pensar que todo es posible gracias por existir.
This song is just beautiful and the video is perfectly matched.
Very Kate Bush-y. Love it.
Yes!!
wuthering heights
knew i wasn't the only one
kate bush is a goddess
You guys have good music taste if you like Kate Bush and Grimes
Such a lovely song!
Grimes dance is so good 😊
She just makes excellent music that I love listening to. It helps my many mental issues a little more bearable
every day since discovery, thank you c, sometimes you dont know what you need 'til you find it..
Imagine being the sheep watching humans doing crazy dancing.
Aha like 'so this what controls everything right now ?'
Lol, I read that metaphorically thinking you were referring to all of us watching the video. Lol
Baaaa-?
when you have shower thoughts
She is DEF. 1 of a KIND.
💘. AMAZING. ‼‼‼❗❗
beauty&thebeat to Belly of the Beat. Wow so glad loona introduced me to grimes
This is my favorite song forever n ever ! Override all my life playlist ++++ times 5 replay over n over on way to work! I hear the music in my head all day!! I luv this song forever!! 😺😺 Thank u for sharing ur art! Ur the best
This is one of her best songs she's ever created. At least to me.
This song sounds like a long lost love being rekindled and starting over again.
the dancers spark joy
All I can say is, THANK YOU, Grimes/Beautiful Claire! ❤❤❤❤❤
Probably the best song on Art Angels. And that beat ooomphf
She’s a princess beyond her time..
This is my alarm, such a beautiful song to start my days
Best when listened to on a loud speaker on a hike through the forest. ethereal
God i love grimes' music :)
Love grimes' beats and production
I listen to this song almost everyday; thank you for creating it!
My mom just passed and I can't stop crying to this song. I have never felt pain like this.
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤
i’m sorry to hear that god bless her. hope you’re doing okay @darnells
ru okay? how are things
My favorite song 💖
This album just keeps giving for me.
This song is an absolute masterpiece!
I can't tell you how much I love this. ❤❤❤
I know we all try to re-capture our youth and catch lighting in a bottle. Hold onto this⚡️
i just can't not like her songs. I mean, really i love them all becausd its simply fucking amazing.
True!
Saudades das músicas dela nesse estilo
One of my favorite songs~💙
Honestly I practice this almost daily - its amazing for Vocals & Frequency.
Teamo grimes❤
This feels so nostalgic and futuristic at the same time and I love it
Everything about this is so beautiful! Visuals + music 💓
A moment of silence for the nature pixie Grimes that used to be.
Before she was under control of the skynet Musk brain parasite.
I love the stringz in this one
ART
ANGELS
Love that she Is original & does her own music videos!
Like always. So good
Wuthering heights vibes 🎶❤️❤️☄️
The creativity... It's a stark realization wen you realize you can relate to something so weird tho at some point in my life
Ultimate artist
this song makes me happy ♥️
We're pretty lucky to have a human who can take their painful life experiences and make beautiful art. I mean, I used to hate her music but it was ignorance to what she's about. I wish I could turn grief, loneliness and feeling like an outcast into something that makes people feel everything but.
After seeing the art from Grimes getting more into the world of tech, Id kill to see her get into The tradegy of the commons, Thomas Malthus and the theories of whether technology aids human evolution particularly in regard to resources, or if it just helps us to wreck ourselves quicker. What is 'good', social concious and how people without it usually take more resources to those with social conscious and how that impacts our altruism as a species.
Also break a song down into the arguments for human breeding to stop. That's be awesome, but probably can't since she's pregnant lol
glad u came around
Regarding your second paragraph, it seems she's getting into exactly these issues with the "Miss Anthropocene" album.
Wow incredible comment, I just had to stop and reply. Very enlightening and true, good points and words spoken, I agree. 👌🥰
The most beautiful comment i will ever read!!!
… and so… “👇” there we have it!
I have RE-LIKED & Watched all my GRIMES vids!!
(must have changed my Channel name or smthn😏 lol).
But regardless…
Im JUST HAPPY to be here…
Thanks for doing YOU Grimes/Claire, Ive introduced my niece to your work & Im just so PROUD to have such a Beautiful, Unique and Creative Artist such as Yourself out there these days.
Ugh! Our future IS Lit ✨
And I do believe that with all my heart.
Cheers for now and we’ll catch y’all out there.✌️😝!! XxOx

Wish I could sing, dance, produce, or do anything as good as c
This type of body movement and dance helps relieve trauma ❤️
I actually had no idea Grimes was a singer/artist. I like this song way too much ❤️
artist for real
i didn't k!ll myself because of this song. thank u grimes 💘 u changed my life 4ever 💭
Angels voice
Come On Girl Get Back To This Style Again ….This Project Was Like Clean Air 🍃
Speechless🎉🎉
GRIMES YOU ARE EVERYTHING
[Intro]
Eh, eh eh
Ooh, ooh
Eh, eh eh
Ooh, ooh
[Verse 1]
I, I've been thinking, I've been thinking
I, I could leave the world today
Everybody dies, we anoint their eyes and we dance like angels do
Writing out your name, little shapes that feign some knowledge of you
[Chorus]
And you'll never get sad and you'll never get sick
And you'll never get weak
We're deep
In the belly of the beat, yeah!
[Verse 2]
I, I've been thinking, I've been thinking
I, I could leave the world today
Everybody dies, we cut out their eyes and we dance like angels do
Making our name in a world that feigns some knowledge of you
[Chorus]
And you'll never get sad and you'll never get sick
And you'll never get weak
We're deep
In the belly of the beat, yeah!
she so trippy
I could listen to the loop of this song for 3hours at least. And I did it.
