The whole "Freudian" song is a duality. The first half of the song has a bittersweet farewell tone which Daniel is reminiscing on his relationship with his partner and how thankful he is for saving his life, and saying that he had to let her go and won't forget everything they've been through. Then the interlude commentary in the middle is him not knowing how to explain to his mother that he hasn't changed and how he lost his faith(his family is religious) and that goes into a pause in the song which resembles the period in time when he felt so alone and desperate in a time where he felt his world crashing down. Then the second half comes into a somber tone with him repeating "isn't it nice, human sacrifice" which is irony for how toxic his relationship was he felt he was sacrificing his life. The whole end is him feeling pity for himself at the end of his relationships. The duality of the song is it could be about a girl that he was in a relationship with(he wrote all the songs about the same girl) and how toxic it was, the other side is his relationship with religion/faith and how toxic it made him. This song along with the whole album demonstrates how great Daniel is at expressing his feelings and putting you into his mind.
Word, i kind of see the second half of the song as him reflecting back on this whole relationship and seeing the beauty of it. The same way in which Sigmund Freud used himself as reference to his studies, Daniel is being brutally honest about himself. This album i feel embodies the complex emotions we all go through within a relationship. One second you want to worship your partner, next second you want to leave them. you want them back, but know that it will only do you harm so you are only thankful of the lesson they taught you. This album really has a good message on us just being honest with ourselves and not to let the sad and empty feeling linger for too long but not to ignore them either.
Jay Ventura you should listen to DEAN he’s a korean songwriter and singer he did a cover from Daniel -get you and he also sings in English , I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU HIM, and also CRUSH, OFFONOFF, RAD MUSEUM!!!
@marco channel orange was great I also loved nostalgic ultra .. blonde is also great it definitely has rnb roots, so much soul put into that album, all 3 tbh
i love the symbolism in this video, its pure art. at the end his running along with those women giving them orders not really giving them credit for the work they are putting in, then the girl in the front stops and starts going off on him knocking him off his high horse because she will not be taken for granted. it shows the struggle of love, those women are from his past but if you notice the one who goes off on him is the one he holds the closest. i relate to this because ive had alot of women in my past who stood by me and ran with me but i took them for granted, then my last ex came along and changed everything. "you know id take a bullet for you, no you dont know what i go through, and i know you think youre kinda nice, do you remember when i saved your life. Dont come at me on some weak shit, its time you stop displaying weakness" that shit hit me
i love how if you wear headphones when it splitd the left earphone gets the left side with 2nd verse and the right earbud gets the first verse where its all sunny and shit thats so cool
The saddest part of this song is the end... Hey mama It's your second son, still the same, ain't changed, mama Made some change Times have changed on me Times have changed (Minds have changed) And mine feels strange, mama I feel ashamed (What could I say to you face to face with my fate, I lost my faith) Face to face with my fate, mama, I lost my faith To tell your mother you've lost your faith... I'm assuming faith in God. And he feels ashamed of that, and especially telling it to his mother whom he must honor...
when the background singers come in at 1:57 ... its fuckin magical. his vocals... plus the background vocals give me life.. who ever the women are singing.. i love it!!!
The song is about an unnresolved "oedipus complex" maybe. The title of the song is "freudian" and he's singing bout his mama and core shame which brings him to behave in an infantile manner with the women around him. His heart is broken bc he is older now and there is distance between him and his mother. They aren't as close anymore, not as enmeshed. He feels anxiety when a woman who he's in a relationship with doesn't sooth his broken heart. So he tries to dictate her actions and control her, treating her as an object. As a man he can use his pubescent masculine influence and dominance to get what he wants but as he says himself, this is just surface, underneath he is still a boy who's in love with his mother. Kudos to him for being so forbearing. Its some really deep deep down honesty that I'm almost shocked to see.
noahblack07@gmail.com feel free to email me... doesn't have to be extended haha, just curious and intrigued and would like to talk to you thank you for your comment
This comment made me shed a tear. It’s amazing to see how Daniel transforms these super complex, painful emotions into such beauty. After reading this, so many new connections were made. Thank you (:
I agree I also think it plays on his religious path too, he is associating religion with his mother and how he chose freedom over religion and thus his mother.
Freudian is the most beautiful album I've heard this year and I swear, every time I hear it, it gets better. I didn't know what to expect from this visual but, it went above and beyond anything I could have imagined. I can't wait to see he does next.
Send me kisses when it's grey skies (can't you see...) Its been so long, look how time flies (I'm spending all...) If you love me won't you let me know (...This time) I've been trying to learn let you go Call my name whenever tears fall (Come with me) When you face your fears you stand tall, oohh (I hope we can...) Ooohh (...Rewind)
Know I'd take a bullet for you No you don't know what I go through And I know you think you're kind nice Do you remember when I saved your life? Don't come at me on some weak shit It's time you stopped displaying weakness, oh, oh Hey momma It's your second son the same I ain't changed momma I made some change Time changed on me Time have changed (minds have changed) My mind feels strange momma but I feel the same I feel ashamed when I'm face to face with my faith Face to face with my faith momma, I lost my faith
3:25 I've been thinking about this for a while but that line in the song "its time you STOP displaying weakness" I always thought it'll be really cool if it was " its time you START displaying weakness" changing the 'stop' into 'start' just cause that would refer to the girl wanting him to open up more in their relationship if yall kinda get what I mean. Love the artistry in the song for real.
I get what you mean, but based on what I may be getting from the song (?)- the "weakness" might be referring to "unresolved problems", rather than just one's natural flaws. In the relationship, or in HIM perhaps his "weaknesses" are already very obvious (so no need to display more). Which might be what brings the troubles along, being unable to handle your problems, fears etc. Though displaying your vulnerability is still good in general.
You are the reason The reason I sing I have to preserve you Cause you're my everything Babe I know I fucked up Focus on them B cups 'Cause you got your friends too Better believe in it Truth I'm up on my luck Can't stop running amok But you got your friends too I just want to thank you for saving my life, yes I just want to thank you for all your advice You are the reason, the reason I'm alive I must bring you honour If I don't, I'd die I know I brought shame Put a mock on your name But you got your thanks too, better believe it I Rising up from the flame The phoenix that I became But you got your thanks too I just want to thank you for giving me life yes I just want to thank you for all your advice Send me kisses when it's grey skies It's been so long look how time flies If you love me won't you let me know I've been trying to learn let you go Call my name whenever tears fall When you face your fears you stand tall Send me kisses when it's grey skies It's been so long look how time flies If you love me won't you let me know I've been trying to learn let you go Call my name whenever tears fall When you face your fears you stand tall Know I'd take a bullet for you No you don't know what I go through And I know you think you're kinda nice Do you remember when I saved your life Don't come at me on some weak shit It's time you stopped displaying weakness, oh, oh Hey momma It's your second son the same I ain't changed momma I made some change Times have changed on me Times have changed (minds have changed) My mind feel strange momma but I feel the same I feel ashamed when I'm face to face with my faith Face to face with my faith momma, I lost my faith Isn't it nice Human sacrifice The universe got it I got too excited And now we're taking life Isn't it nice Human sacrifice I hate consequences, that shit is too expensive You keep chasing delight Isn't it nice Human sacrifice I take the easy way out every time I don't deserve my own life Isn't it nice Human sacrifice oh yes Say I'm a martyr Charge that to my ego I just want all the lights
My mind just melted into ooze in the most incredible way. The overlapping vocals at the beginning gave me chills. And can we take a moment to appreciate the cinematography?

I’ve been fucking obsessed with this song since it came out and I’m in tears because of this video lol, idk if it’s the similarities I feel with the story or not but this is my favorite album of this year
Glad I’m not the only one who reacted that way to the visual. I’ve been obsessed with the album and then this was just the cherry on top. My favorite piece of art ever.
I love his music and his videos sm. I’m so glad more and more people are finally listening to his music 😭 I always listen to him whenever I feel down or when I just want to relax.
The most perfect visual ever for an even more perfect song. I’m beyond proud of Daniel and everything else he’s accomplished since the release of Freudian and I’m so happy the Grammys see the same we see in him 🙌🏾💜
Maybe I'm reaching here but i feel like each side (the left and right side) have Daniel talking to two different people. The left side being his mom and the right side being his girlfriend. And then the chorus is when they join each other to thank both of them
You're on to something. Also notice how he's by himself on the left;probably represents that he isnt in a good place with his mother. Theres a distance and disconnect between the two
could watch this a million times over. could listen to the 'freudian' album a million times over. you have such a gift. thank you for sharing it with the world.
1) This entire album is everything!! 2) My asmr was triggered very strongly by this song just when I thought I had grown immune to that... Like I almost needed to pause this song on the metro, but it was too beautiful to interrupt.
Send me kisses when it's grey skies It's been so long look how time flies If you love me won't you let me know I've been trying to learn let you go Call my name whenever tears fall When you face your fears you stand tall ❤️❤️❤️😭
I’ll never get tired of this music video. Watching the first part with headphones omggg it’s like different parts of Daniel Caesar r fighting each other
still remember the day this came out and i saw the video at school with my best friend. We switched earbuds and freaked out. Damn im old now. I miss her.
Lyrics You are the reason The reason I sing I have to preserve you Cause you're my everything Babe I know I fucked up Focus on them empty cups Cause you got your friends too Better believe in it Truth I'm up on my luck Can't stop running amok But you got your friends too I just want to thank you for saving my life, Yes I just want to thank you for all your advice You are the reason, the reason I'm alive I must bring you honour If I don't, I'd die I know I brought shame Put a mock on your name But you got your thanks too, better believe it I Rising up from the flame The phoenix that I became But you got your thanks too I just want to thank you for giving me life yes I just want to thank you for all your advice Send me kisses when it's grey skies Its been so long look how time flies If you love me won't you let me know I've been trying to learn let you go Call my name whenever tears fall When you face your fears you stand tall Send me kisses when it's grey skies Its been so long look how time flies If you love me won't you let me know I've been trying to learn let you go Call my name whenever tears fall When you face your fears you stand tall Know I'd take a bullet for you No you don't know what I go through And I know you think you're kinda nice Do you remember when I saved your life Don't come at me on some weak shit It's time you stopped displaying weakness, oh, oh Hey momma I'm still your second son the same I ain't changed momma I made some change Times have changed on me Times have changed (minds have changed) My mind feel strange momma but I feel the same I feel ashamed when I'm face to face with my faith Face to face with my faith momma, I lost my faith Isn't it nice Human sacrifice The universe got it I got too excited And now we're taking life Isn't it nice Human sacrifice I hate consequences, that shits too expensive You keep chasing delight Isn't it nice Human sacrifice I take the easy way out every time I don't deserve my own life Isn't it nice Human sacrifice oh yes Say I'm a martyr Charge that to my ego I just want all the lights
THIS NIGGA BETTER WIN THE FUCKING GRAMMY BECAUSE THIS WAS ALBUM OF THE YEAR FOR ME!
It's such a close tie between him and SZA. they both did such a phenomenal job this year I want them both to win honestly
Alabaster The Unoriginal this album was everything
Golden Girl AGREED 😭
Makeda Grant YES
Excatly 🤦🏾
I'm glad that we got a visual for the 1:56 - 3:34 part of the song. It's my favorite part of the song. Gives me chills every time.
I feel the same way

Antonio Cuevas i agree 100%
Interesting
R&B isn't dead
It's just getting started
Yeah, The Weeknd saved it a decade ago
@@bxoz3352 no sir, R&B didn't need the weeknd for it to be saved😒
@@geraldnyanjwa4288 exact, I love The weeknd, but R&B didn't need to be saved, also I have to mention Bruno Mars, another great artist alive
@@benjaveragua682 yes he is but he's not an R&B. He's a pop artist.
it's 6 AM and I'm crying. congrats on the Grammy noms Daniel 💙💙💙
FESARII 🙌🙌🙌
FESARII heyyy guess who??👋🏾🤣

When his voice joins in with hers at 2:48, I melt. It’s the most angelic sound I’ve ever heard. This is so beautiful. 💛
God has gifted us Frank Ocean and Now Daniel Caesar, liquid gold for rnb 👌🏼
Jay Ventura you should listen to DEAN he’s a korean songwriter and singer he did a cover from Daniel -get you and he also sings in English , I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU HIM, and also CRUSH, OFFONOFF, RAD MUSEUM!!!
Ohhh. DEAN's pretty good.
Frank hasn't really been r&b since channel orange, he had transcended the genre
@abran I’ll have to check him out rn I’ve been really into Rex Orange County he’s really good in my opinion soon to blow up I believe
@marco channel orange was great I also loved nostalgic ultra .. blonde is also great it definitely has rnb roots, so much soul put into that album, all 3 tbh
i love the symbolism in this video, its pure art. at the end his running along with those women giving them orders not really giving them credit for the work they are putting in, then the girl in the front stops and starts going off on him knocking him off his high horse because she will not be taken for granted. it shows the struggle of love, those women are from his past but if you notice the one who goes off on him is the one he holds the closest. i relate to this because ive had alot of women in my past who stood by me and ran with me but i took them for granted, then my last ex came along and changed everything.

Dont come at me on some weak shit, its time you stop displaying weakness" that shit hit me
i love how if you wear headphones when it splitd the left earphone gets the left side with 2nd verse and the right earbud gets the first verse where its all sunny and shit thats so cool
I thought the same ! Btw I love your music keep it up :)
saintcharlezful oh that makes sense
Nerotsa AHHHH wow thank you:'l
shanthemusickid It’s called panning
holy mother of punctuation
I wish the studio version had that background voice of his during the first verse. Would have made the track even more magical.
Completely agree
Yessss
Your music and artistry will transcend, this is wonderful.
AZERZZZ AKA 4rif

Cleveland brown be speaking facts
The saddest part of this song is the end...
Hey mama
It's your second son, still the same, ain't changed, mama
Made some change
Times have changed on me
Times have changed (Minds have changed)
And mine feels strange, mama
I feel ashamed (What could I say to you face to face with my fate, I lost my faith)
Face to face with my fate, mama, I lost my faith
To tell your mother you've lost your faith... I'm assuming faith in God. And he feels ashamed of that, and especially telling it to his mother whom he must honor...
That's Sean Leon. Great artist. Has written some songs for Daniel Caesar and wrote "Use This Gospel" for Kanye.
THIS IS MY FAVORITE SONG OF THE WHOLE YEAR
Nathan Zed same here
cool seeing u here my guy
when the background singers come in at 1:57 ... its fuckin magical. his vocals... plus the background vocals give me life.. who ever the women are singing.. i love it!!!
Nominated for best R&B album!! Hope he wins!
Aiden G I hope he wins too!!😭😭🙌🏿🙌🏿
i really hope the grammy academy voting members really see the talent in this guy
Me too!!
HE FUCKING BETTER 😭
who else did an R&B album this year ??
Definitely the most underated song on an underated album by an underated artist
❤️
Those additional vocals in the beginning are absolutely gorgeous. God this whole video is so great.

The 1:56 mark is majestic, beautiful and powerful with the just the vocals and no instruments ❤❤
Tommy I that's my favorite part it had me hooked I just had to find the song
Tommy I yesssss! my favorite part ❤❤
Freudian is literally my favourite
Xtra exactly
The second part gave me chills
The melody, the hook, the runs, the bridge, the guitar, the visual, the choir, the chords, the women in the video. EVERYTHING is beautiful.
Freudian is the most beautiful album I've heard this year and I swear, every time I hear it, it gets better. I didn't know what to expect from this visual but, it went above and beyond anything I could have imagined. I can't wait to see he does next.
Send me kisses when it's grey skies

You are the reason
The reason I sing
I have to preserve you
Cause you're my everything
Babe I know I fucked up
Focus on them B cups
'Cause you got your friends too
Better believe in it
Truth I'm up on my luck
Can't stop running amok
But you got your friends too
I just want to thank you for saving my life, yes
I just want to thank you for all your advice
You are the reason, the reason I'm alive
I must bring you honour
If I don't, I'd die
I know I brought shame
Put a mock on your name
But you got your thanks too, better believe it I
Rising up from the flame
The phoenix that I became
But you got your thanks too
I just want to thank you for giving me life yes
I just want to thank you for all your advice
Send me kisses when it's grey skies
It's been so long look how time flies
If you love me won't you let me know

Face to face with my faith momma, I lost my faith
Isn't it nice
Human sacrifice
The universe got it
I got too excited
And now we're taking life
Isn't it nice
Human sacrifice
I hate consequences, that shit is too expensive
You keep chasing delight
Isn't it nice
Human sacrifice
I take the easy way out every time
I don't deserve my own life
Isn't it nice
Human sacrifice oh yes
Say I'm a martyr
Charge that to my ego
I just want all the lights
🙏🏽
Thanks
The mixing is sick... the stereo split 😭😭😭🔥🔥🔥🔥🙋🏾♂️ 0:43

My mind just melted into ooze in the most incredible way. The overlapping vocals at the beginning gave me chills. And can we take a moment to appreciate the cinematography?

I can't help but be drawn to the left side of the video,the loneliness,I feel it deep.

Instead of ‘focus on them b cups’ i think it’s actually ‘fucked with some empty cups’

💝 Thank you so much for taking time to type the lyrics.
Still very helpful up to this day.
the fact that bruno mars won best r&b album at the grammys over this ruins my day every time i think about it.
That wasn't even a RNB Album 😭😭. It was pop and they gave him RNB Album of the Year over Freudian and 24k Magic and Get You. Major snub.
You ruined my day now😭
@@jaykaydeigholivier2982 my day too 😭
They were both great songs
I’ve been fucking obsessed with this song since it came out and I’m in tears because of this video lol, idk if it’s the similarities I feel with the story or not but this is my favorite album of this year
Glad I’m not the only one who reacted that way to the visual. I’ve been obsessed with the album and then this was just the cherry on top. My favorite piece of art ever.
same
I CAN'T EXPLAIN HOW MUCH I AM OBSESSED AT THIS OMG
I love his music and his videos sm. I’m so glad more and more people are finally listening to his music 😭 I always listen to him whenever I feel down or when I just want to relax.
Phil D i want few people to know him so that fame won't get to him and stop making GOOD QUALITY MUSIC!!!
Splash Curry I have more faith than that in Danny. I think he will keep his authenticity no matter what
Why am I crying in the club right now?
You watching this in the club?! Lol
Do you just listen to all the good music.
Why are you on RUclips if your in the club🤔🤔 I'm thinkin your a phony
youre in the club on your phone listening to another song with headphones in?
Wtf I see you here also
The most perfect visual ever for an even more perfect song. I’m beyond proud of Daniel and everything else he’s accomplished since the release of Freudian and I’m so happy the Grammys see the same we see in him 🙌🏾💜
Daniel Caesar, you are a musical genius ...
This entire album speaks to me on a spiritual level. I cry every time...
if there is one person I could listen to for the rest of my life I would choose Daniel
DESERVES A GRAMMY
Maybe I'm reaching here but i feel like each side (the left and right side) have Daniel talking to two different people. The left side being his mom and the right side being his girlfriend. And then the chorus is when they join each other to thank both of them
You're on to something. Also notice how he's by himself on the left;probably represents that he isnt in a good place with his mother. Theres a distance and disconnect between the two
@@rizie7355 Its called Freudian look up the Freudain theory lmao it's all there
@@aiemiiyo4244 ik the theory well
This was so beautiful, thank you for this.

You know when simplicity and effortlessness results in absolute perfection. When you don't over do it with your visuals. I absolutely love this.

He did go to SAN DIEGO!!! Its at UCSD!!! I went hehe it was nice
1) This entire album is everything!! 2) My asmr was triggered very strongly by this song just when I thought I had grown immune to that... Like I almost needed to pause this song on the metro, but it was too beautiful to interrupt.
One of the best r&b songs I have heard in the last 7 years... #Questions ....
Send me kisses when it's grey skies
It's been so long look how time flies
If you love me won't you let me know
I've been trying to learn let you go
Call my name whenever tears fall
When you face your fears you stand tall
❤️❤️❤️😭
MY LOVE FOR THIS SONG.........😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I wish the original version of this song included the background vocals, this version literally makes you FEEL the song
THIS IS HEAVEN TO MY EARS
this song is genuinely a masterpiece
in love with one girl & the rest are soul-ties! favorite song & dope visuals
I’ll never get tired of this music video. Watching the first part with headphones omggg it’s like different parts of Daniel Caesar r fighting each other

still remember the day this came out and i saw the video at school with my best friend. We switched earbuds and freaked out. Damn im old now. I miss her.
Daniel you are a goat, your music is soo amazing!
its been so long, look how time flies
Lyrics
You are the reason
The reason I sing
I have to preserve you
Cause you're my everything
Babe I know I fucked up
Focus on them empty cups
Cause you got your friends too
Better believe in it
Truth I'm up on my luck
Can't stop running amok
But you got your friends too
I just want to thank you for saving my life, Yes
I just want to thank you for all your advice
You are the reason, the reason I'm alive
I must bring you honour
If I don't, I'd die
I know I brought shame
Put a mock on your name
But you got your thanks too, better believe it I
Rising up from the flame
The phoenix that I became
But you got your thanks too
I just want to thank you for giving me life yes
I just want to thank you for all your advice
Send me kisses when it's grey skies
Its been so long look how time flies
If you love me won't you let me know
I've been trying to learn let you go
Call my name whenever tears fall
When you face your fears you stand tall
Send me kisses when it's grey skies
Its been so long look how time flies
If you love me won't you let me know
I've been trying to learn let you go
Call my name whenever tears fall
When you face your fears you stand tall
Know I'd take a bullet for you
No you don't know what I go through
And I know you think you're kinda nice
Do you remember when I saved your life
Don't come at me on some weak shit
It's time you stopped displaying weakness, oh, oh
Hey momma
I'm still your second son the same I ain't changed momma
I made some change
Times have changed on me
Times have changed (minds have changed)
My mind feel strange momma but I feel the same
I feel ashamed when I'm face to face with my faith
Face to face with my faith momma, I lost my faith
Isn't it nice
Human sacrifice
The universe got it
I got too excited
And now we're taking life
Isn't it nice
Human sacrifice
I hate consequences, that shits too expensive
You keep chasing delight
Isn't it nice
Human sacrifice
I take the easy way out every time
I don't deserve my own life
Isn't it nice
Human sacrifice oh yes
Say I'm a martyr
Charge that to my ego
I just want all the lights
es
I really want to fully understand the meaning behind the visual it’s so intriguing
