Depends on the drug. Some are just fun, period. And some aren't exactly fun, but are worthwhile nonetheless (like Salvia, for example, or Ibogaine, or to a lesser extent DPT).
This video freaks some people out, makes other uncomfortable. The whole "smiling", the fake smiling, the image people want to give others. This message, of what we really are, this video is trying to transmit to us, hits some of us in the core of our souls.
+noreply6 it's just the clothes, anyone in a primary colored shirt looks like a photo model and they just have stereotypical stock clothes on, half of them actually look pretty high though so that's cool
+fuflang Some are safer than others, but all can be used responsibly under the right circumstances. I personally don't have the self-discipline to use heroin or meth responsibly, but for those who do, more power to them. But yeah, unless you've got a will of steel I'd stick to weed and psychedelics, and maybe a little mdma once a year or two if you've got enough self-discipline to keep it to that. And maybe some dissociatives if you've got slightly more self discipline than that.
don't get it either, care to explain, anyone? ( don't bother answering if you just want to call me names like that kano guy, and try to remember that not everyone is a native english speaker here, thank you)
First unnatural joy, then the freakout, back and forth, with the latter becoming more and more frequent ... Can't decide whether it's about drugs or becoming an adult.
i love showing these kinds of videos to my family who have never heard the kind of music i listen to. they watch and listen to the mainstream popular vids. and i put on ratatat.
The imagery of this video plays in my head almost every day whenever someone smiles and I think the smile is just a fake cover of darkness. The video will curse me for the rest of my days
Love the uniqueness of RATATAT. It's like some 8bit nintendo music mixed with a touch of synth, and dash of electronic to make a deliciously enjoyable ear pie.
The reason it felt like that is because they used stock video footage to be used in commercials and other videos of the kind. Adult Swim also makes parodies of such commercials. It is really smart imo to use these footage to make a music vid. If you like this kind of parodies, I suggest you check out r/youdontsurf on reddit. Not the same but similar.
I indeed stumbled upon this video whilst high on a quarter of mushrooms. I love this video, and I had seen it many many times before, but I was completely lost when I saw this. I was so fucking gone it's like I was in deja vu, because I was. I knew I'd heard the song before, but the visuals man. These fucking visuals are already trippy enough. The shrooms just spiraled that shit into madness. Can't say I recommend it, at least not on a quarter of shrooms. That was a bit hardcore.
Oh man, I'm trying 10 grams of Pandora truffles tomorrow, first time for me. Truffles are weaker that dry shrooms. I will watch this video again and see if I can get the trip you did, I certainly will try.
Was wird daraus, wenn der Bruno mal tot geht? Wo landen diese Sachen? Wo landen diese Instrumente? Was wird daraus? Translation: "What's going to become of them if Bruno dies? Where will these things go? Where will these instruments go? What's going to become of them?"
It's amazing this video is so amazing, when u r high on something u start to see this is how the world is, we all looking for comfort, we all have ulterior motives, we all are addicted to something or many things, we all r subjects to our needs and our every move and word is uttered in the hopes of getting what we think we need.
i think its really funny how unnatural these people look on video but the stock photos are almost intended to portray natural body movements and gestures. i just have a problem with 2:57...what..the hell..is that?
So I watched this video seeing all these strange emotional depictions and it was just such a bizarre experience as most of you can attest. The second time I watched it I realized it was depictions of models of varying kinds, probably for stock photos. My experience was so different because I externalized all the awkwardness onto the models. Then I realized whether it's a depiction of models or not there are still models (actors) making these displays for this video which did weird me out the first time. So much of what we see on our screens is pretending and yet it creates so much emotional resonance as if we're really seeing it. Weird place to gain this insight.

It looks like several cameras have been arranged around a person's head, and then the combined footage from them has been flattened out so that it appears as a 'map' of their head. Rather like when you see a map of the earth :>
The sample in the beginning of this song is of german actor Bruno S. who starred in some of Werner Herzog's earliest films, the moment I heard it I was like omgawd .... lit af
+Goldfish_Vender It's a excerpt from a movie ("Stroszek", by Werner Herzhog. In German. The character Bruno asks: "Was wird daraus, wenn der Boden mal tot geht? Wo landen diese sachen?

" (very roughly translated). le0x.tumblr.com/post/3528617559/was-wird-daraus-wenn-der-boden-mal-tot-geht Was = what wird = will wenn = when or if tot = dead geht -> the verb "gehen" = to go diese = these sachen = things (plural) English is a germanic language like German--many words have the same origin.
You're a little off, crudehawk. The first sentence asks Was wird daraus, wenn der *Bruno* mal tot geht? The character is Bruno Stroszek and he referred to himself in the third person.
Mate! Me too! I couldn't sleep, went for a late night batty, settled down and watched this 😅 I've known ratatat for many years, since myspace days when wildcat first arrived, and never watched this video until now.. Freakin freaky ass shit lol
I wonder how many people realize how much this video is for people on hallucinogens. For those who have done them, you know how weird reading peoples emotions are..just saying....
I’ve experienced literal telepathy while on LSD. Also shrooms. But it’s like the person you’re sensing the telepathy with has to also be on it. Freaky stuff. It will be legal soon. Try it if you’re reading this.

i just spent 12 minutes looking for Satan lmao
The budgie is the best tho
There are so many ways to interpret this song and video and i find them all hilarious
I like the "They're all high as a kite and are trying to hide it as hard as they can" approach the best.

when they played this live and had the video on behind it was the most surreal but epic experience ever
Instead of "this is your brain on drugs", it's "this is your whole family on drugs".
Surprised to see this was 2 years ago with the gorillaz icon, thought this would have been because of sleeping powder lol

Depends on the drug. Some are just fun, period. And some aren't exactly fun, but are worthwhile nonetheless (like Salvia, for example, or Ibogaine, or to a lesser extent DPT).
The video is like a 3 hours long acid trip. There are laughs, weird faces, disaproval faces, anger, more laughs, more panic... I love it.

They are

Never seen a music video that so accurately describes the title without ever directly referencing the title

Mawsphore it's just a bit of word play. Normally people say "don't do drugs," but in this video, computer software is what makes the strange images.
I love this video. I love how psychotic it makes me feel. I want to make a video like this and hold nothing back.
This video must have sent a lot of people on some bad trips.
This video came up in a playlist while a group of people were tripping one night. The lady with the pinched in face was a huge NOPE!
