Its crazy that despite being 7 years old, SIAMES is still replying to comments made today and yesterday. Im all for it, this song is awesome and so is the video
For sure! We enjoy interacting with all of you ❤️🤣
@@SIAMESmusic that's wild
I remember when this song was released and it feels so long ago :'D It really is wild they're still replying
I've grown from a preteen to a "adult". This song was pretty big in the animation community
Has anyone else noticed in the beginning, only a single wolf was chasing the guy on the motorcycle, but when we see him again later, a lot more are chasing him. And then, at the end, there's a whole horde behind them. Almost like it's saying that running from your problems instead of facing them only creates new problems and makes things worse in the long run.
Your so right 😂
*How did nobody else notice besides you?*
@@soludiiy Tbh I have no doubt that others noticed. I guess I'm just the first to make a comment on it that gained traction?
I think you mean a pack. 😊
Damn god right
A friend of mine noted that: For the "driver" to save the "drinker" from his daemon, he had to sacrifice the thing that kept him running from his own.
Just thought i wanted to share.
Daniel Haraldson that’s pretty neat
Don't drink and drive XD
and he faced it
Wow... that’s amazing
"demon"
Everyone is talking about the wolf representing addiction, but to me it could also represent loneliness, it seemed like the characters were lonely, and only managed to fight back when they accidentally bumped into each other.
no way you get pinned.
I think the same thing
Only one of them started to fight back. He was also the one that helped both the cigarette addict and alcohol addict.
Tbh might be true....
@@TheThimonthy no way... I just realized seeing your comment, what reaction should I have? 😳
i love how siames are still reading the comments under this video even though it was posted a long ago❤
This is what a good animator can do with just black and white.
And red
iiVaxpe but mostly black and white :D
@@Just_som_Ottur lol
I LOVE these kinds of videos! The things they do with the transitions are so cool!
And Pink 😂
I know we're all discussing the idea of the video, or even making some memes about it, but we can just take a moment to appreciate that SIAMÉS keep coming back to this video to heart something? That's some dedication to a fan-base right there. Keep it up you beautifully talented people.
☺️🎶💙
They even pinned a comment from 6 days ago
Leave it to Siames to both make deep and awesome music AND still show attention and care for their fans.
Yooo they even hearted your comment! Lmao this is the kinda celebrity I wanna be someday...
AWWWWW they came back to put an heart to your comment
I swear dude this is what I’m talking about
Siames is literally coming back to their old videos and involving themselves with their fans in the comment sections.
Showing love to their old videos
Thanx 😁🎶🌈
HE LITTERALY REPLI-
I-
i want a sequel to this animation by the way
@@SIAMESmusic Auf Deutsch könnte ich alles erklären!
As an Argentinian I am really proud that Siamés is one of the few bands from my country that is really known all over the world, thank you all for that and greetings from Argentina to your respective countries

Having the wolves represent the characters’ problems, and them trying to run away from them is pure genius
you have been chosen as your words has move our hearts
It’s amazing how this song has lasted the test of time. Pop songs come and go, but BOPS last forever.
@@lunahymnpala3081 imortal
I think their running from addiction
One of the characters at the end eventually runs towards the problems and finally decide to deal with it is also a nice detail
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how every one of SIAMÉS's songs has a moral?
@@belilu1bithef0x19 it's that no matter where it is or what it is addiction will chase you down until you stand up to it.
The biker was addicted to speed, the skateboarder was addicted to cigarettes, the businessman to alcohol.
FallenAngeI was the biker addicted to acceleration speed or drug speed
@@spaghetti-man31 Since he's shown zooming around on a bike when the wolf shows up most likely acceleration.
FallenAngeI yeah that does make more sense than drugs
No, we can't!
My favourite part is where the girl's initial reaction to the wolf is to just fucking smack it round the face with her skateboard
Mr. Avacado Man the best part about this whole video is just how much they show about each character in this with such little time. They make them seem more realistic in a weird sense. Granted that girl would totally have a sore bum or none.
Mr. Avacado Man ikr
TrueBlueYoshi
The animator did a really good job with that. You could just see the "Oh shit" in her eye after swinging her board.
I'm not sure what the video has to do with the song, but it's awesome either way. Reminds me of something out of Call of Cthulhu, with the Hounds of Tindalos.
I think the wolf was supposed to be symbolic of certain vices or addictions and the difficulty of escaping them, hence it attacking when the guy got a drink, implying that he might be an alcoholic, or the girl being addicted to smoking.
"I can feel how your flesh is crying out for more."
Not sure about the first guy though... No helmet?
Edit: Wait, I think I've got it, 2:58 Anger issues!
I love how by just hearing the “dun dun dun DUN DUN dun” from the start you instantly know what song it is
I wanna add that when ever the wolves are in darkness they transform and become more monsterlike i think this represents that if you just leave your problems alone in the dark they won't get better only worse also the guy at the beginning since he keeps only running away they multiply also showing you can't run also notice how the wolf that attacks him in the front is the original wolf and he had to deal with it
"you can run but you can't hide"
Gustavo Marcucci Ortiz "there are times where you simply cant run or hide from something you're afraid of, sometimes you just have to face it and fight back, those are the times"
-some friend of mine
The first one also looks like a lonely guy and in the moment he mets the other two, he loses his problem. But dunno if it's far-fetched theory.
@@onutrof1157 looks like he finds helping others deal with problems that he has himself.
Also when that drink adict is in the train u can see him holding coin with black cat on it which could symbolise bad luck, that later uses to pay for his drink as an excuse for having a drink.
The wolf is the rapist and he sings.
« Not too old, not too young/I can feel how your flesh is crying out for more » and the wolf is created by a drug in a drink
The creativity level behind this video is unimaginable.

4 years later, and that skateboard-smack is _still_ my favorite bit of animation from this amazing video.
Holy shit a 2021 person who comment this and now i'm commenting this
My favorite is the breaking glass... I don't know why xD
But tbh the skateboard-smack is awesome too!
that wolfs body really just turned into puddy
YOOOOO SAMEEEE I THOUGHT IT WAS A REALLY COOL SHOT AND IT FITS THE BEAT SO GOOD I'M GLAD I'M NOT A ONLY ONE
That screw flying is just amazing. Don't know why I like it so much
Moral of the story: If you run from your problems they'll only get worse, but no matter how bad things get other people, even strangers, can give you the courage to face your problems
Whenever I listen to this there’s always a different pinned comment. Kudos to the artists for encouraging different interpretations
YOU GOT PINNED CONGRATS, And yeah never seen any artist that does that, pretty cool
Yea and they are still pinning new comments which is awesome
I love artists who continuously engage with fans years after their videos come out!
Hmmm i feel like there's something idk what it is i just feel it
Speak of the devil
I think that the fact that the video does not show us if they defeated the wolves is what really gives the message. This video is not a promise of "face your problems, and you will defeat them" but instead an advice that we all should try to face our problems even though we don't actually know if we will succeed by doing so. But, as everyone in the comments has said, we should help one another with our problems in order to truly be able to face them. Note that the girl at the start tried to hit her wolf, but failed and just ran away. They only were able to fight them when they were together, showing that being with other people makes your problems easier to handle.
Shawn I think you're right. Because as you said at the start of your sentence no one can promise that your problems will be dealt with.
potato
That mans problem (probably):He is Alcoholic
Girls problem(Again,probably):She is smoking
That young teens problem:I dont know it.
@@woppagangnamstyle He has multiple wolves chasing him as he rides away from the city... possibly manslaughter and a guilt complex?
@@evangelionaddict8212 Oh you are right.I mean 11 wolves are chasing him and he is like "Where the fuck are this wolves coming from?"and then out of nowhere some girl showes up and hops into his bike and then he is like "WHAT THE FUCK?"and then some man there panicing because of a wolf in front of him and the teen is like "WATCH OUT!"But then two of them hop out of bike and bike explodes with a car and a big wolf and then all of them on the ground and then teen is like "You know what? Fuck it.I will punch some wolves right in the face!"
Many people have probably already said this, but I think that the wolves aren't even real. They are simply the people's problems fromes into a physical manifestation. Everybody tries to run away from their problems, one at a time, but as the wolves become an army, it symbolizes that the problems are multiplying, that running away from them isn't gonna solve them, but just make them worse.
The finale also symbolizes them confronting their problems, the man getting up, screaming as he runs towards the wolves. The lyrics sound like they come from the enemy's perspective. "cuz you can run but you can't hide, I'm gonna make you mine!" is basically saying that the problems are slowly taking a toll on them with each passing second. The lyrics "I'm out of my head, of my heart, of my mind!" emphasizes that even more. Even the fact that nobody else notices that shows that it is happening only in their minds.
I like the official siames channel keeps pinning these different comments.
Dammmmmmmmm
And facing them is individual so it is not in video, because it is everybodies private thing, how they face them.
The song is about addiction.
True
This is probably one of the best music videos ever made.
My theory is that the third character is dealing with his own problems (he is on the highway, the bike could represent that he is doing well on his own problems because wolves can't caught him) but then he find people that need help too so he stops and help that person(first the girl and the crash the bike to the wolf that is with the other guy) but when everything seems lost or bad, he gets himself stronger so he can deal with it even if it seems impossible.
I actually hadn't thought of the first part being that.
So basically the guy on the motorcycle is doing well represented by him not being caught by the wolves.
Then we have the second guy which, by the looks of it, only has one coin (doesn't have a lot of money) and is addicted to drinking since when he looks into the cup, his addiction jumps out of it and chases after him. While running away he seems to escape only to be greeted again by his problem, reminding him that he can't run away from it.
Now the girl: she seems to be ok until she starts smoking a cigarette which makes the wolf appear from the shadows as she feeds her addiction. She notices that and tries to run away from her problem and while doing this comes across the first guy which is able to deal with his own problems (although, by the looks of it, keep stacking up due to the increased number of wolves after him). He saves her from her problems and both are fine until they come across the other guy.
He loses himself and both him and the girl are caught up by their problems.
Not being able to run away anymore, as pointed out by you, he takes the matters into his hands by bettering himself and finally confronts his own problems.
Concuerdo contigo uwu
I think that maybe the bike guy issue is that hes good a running from his problems (why he could outrun the wolves on his bike) but when he saw people who needed help he finally took those problems head on(why he fights at the end)........
i can barely figure out what i should have for lunch
He's running from his problems and then says, "fuck it" and faces them head on
Everybody’s interpreting the song like “can’t run from your problems” and I’m just sitting here like “I love the animation.
Srsly. Major props to the animators.
They released a video showing how the animation was done.
yeah, though i've always interpreted the song as being about addiction :0
Yes 🙌 this is why I want to learn animation. These is the coolest stuff.
it was epic doe
I can do both. Both is good.
Huh, just realized some of lyrics are seen through the wolf’s point of view.
😉
What do you mean?
Zach Baritell what I meant is that the lyrics are from the wolf’s side, for example “But somewhere far away I will hear your call.” Meaning as soon as a person.. I don’t know how to put it... made the wrong move the wolf will know
@@uncle5164 i think that just means that the person's addiction is calling out, like "hey you need another cig" which is why they say "I don't trust myself once I hear your call" Because the person loses control
"You can run but you can't hide, I'm gonna make you mine" 0:51 1:44 2:44
be honest i stumbled upon this band by accident while surfing youtube on my way to university, but when i watched this video, i was so captivated by its atmosphere that i skipped class :). this is the best music video i have ever seen.
i hope you continue making such mindblowing clips :D. Hello from Russia
Awesome to see that people are just finding this song. I remember listening to this song when it came out. Very nostalgic for me :))
it's really interesting, having rewatched and replayed this video so many times and looking at the comments a lot... a few months ago all the big theories were about addiction and fighting against addiction while now it seems like we've broadened the overall theory to emphasize how the video is about running away from / fighting against problems.
And then there's that one about hitting a minecraft wolf.
genius. i still like the addiction theory tho. but genius. it might be about running from anything and how were all in it together so we might as well help each other out.
I feel like art was meant to be expressed by the artist and then interpreted by the audience in any form they wish. That's what makes it art.
@@jonhenryphares2132 do you have a smoke?
Dang sad
The ending always gives me chills...
Sometimes you can't run, you can't hide, sometimes... You have to fight
I mean watching that scooter smash into the van and blow up one of those wolfs was oddly satisfying
You Ken't run and you can't Hide
Let's Touka-bout this.
-Tokyo Ghoul
literally me and my school i can't run away from my exam
And sometimes you can't fight yourself.
@Kahfi assidiqi it's a word play between Can't and Ken't the name of the character
Words cannot express how cool this animation is.
Zmaxbit I FUCKING AGREE!!!!!!!
Zmaxbit What a deep meaning in this song
Exactly...
They just did!
what detailed, well timed between cuts, something that could compare with the quality of ghibli just without the more realistic visuals
"I can hear your call"
Something a friend would say... I love how the lyrics present addiction as something that relieves and no matter where you are it will always be willing to help you, but the visuals contrast this by representing addiction as a beast
Even after 5 years this man is reading and hearting people's comments this man is insane!

WOOHOOO like 700 :v
To me this song kinda symbolizes how serious things can get when you hold onto problems way longer than you should’ve. Then, as anticipated, turn into real problems and then you have no other choice except to face them head first and prove that you can do it.
True!
Pretty accurate 👍🏼
2 me the song says if you drive out at night then you are very stupid
Excuse me... where are your 100k likes? You need them
Agreed ! :)
I LOVE the kind of storytelling where it shows you the END first, then shows you how we got here, then the end has so much more meaning.
The music and animation are both just *spectacular*
TRULY!!
Indeed
so simplistic but more than enough to satisfy everyone
the music is probably one of the best songs ive heard ngl
@@Hyenaaman agreed
First time I watched this I was high on opioids and thought it was a cool song and cool animation. Second time I was fresh out of rehab and actually registered the deeper meaning and it made me cry realizing how badly disconnected I had been all that time

The original source of inspiration and meaning behind the song and video is irrelevant: we can only interpret it from our own point of view. In my opinion, it's about facing your demons and whatever is chasing you. Nobody walks through this life without suffering the slings and arrows that test our resolve as human beings.
based
good
Que profundo pensamiento
Nice!
I loved this when it first got released
The more you run, the more your problems multiply. The more you care about, the more you have to fight for, and the harder you fight back. It's fascinating that the catalyst for the growth of the first character we're introduced to is other people. Worth thinking about if you've got a few wolves on your trail.
Damn
Kal Kun Yeah. It's not that easy to get rid of them. But once you do, you're free as a bird.
This comment needs more likes
The only way to get rid of them, is to face them head on!
That is really deep and very true and preach it til the end
This is such a great way to show how addiction can affect anyone.
Yeah
Damn now i feel dense af for not noticing this
Willow Statmore, I agree but it can also show how death can, and will come for us all, a delay for time by facing the addiction that they are in can save them valuable time that can be the difference between the death coming soon in someone's life rather than later, but that isn't always the case just a simple failure of a vital organ can also bring death, conditions are death infested because it leaves people at more of a disadvantage than others whether it be a lung condition, or a heart condition it is still a condition that could end someone's life swiftly so the only way for someone to die in a more peaceful way is surrounded by people they love, and trust. The wolf as you seem to be putting it is the addictions they face it could also be death, or their traumatic past coming back to haunt them there can be so many interpretations in the lyrics that you can't just point at one reason, it's like a puzzle you have to line up all the pieces, but there is more to do to line up the complete story.
Oh my! I didn't knew it was about addiction lol.
Anyway what was the scooter guy's addiction?
@@saifshaikh3191 Adrenaline, the thrill of speed. Take your pick.
the motorbike guy is badass, like no joke, he did all that stuff when he was being chased then when the wolfs had him cornered, he deadass just went straight for them.
Darn straight!
*gotta do what i rlly dont want to do*
He does also BTFO one of them at the end by launching his bike into it.
“Fuck it, I die when I say I die.”
His addiction is helping others, even at the expense of himself
EGG MAYOR EGG MAYOR EGG MAYOR🔥🔥🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🗣🗣
WELL THANKS NOW I CAN'T UNHEAR IT.
Its jsut like my friend pointing out the Alatreon roar from MHW:I you can hear :Eggegeggeggg" int he background
This reminds me of the Native American story about how everyone has two wolves inside, eternally fighting. One is all things good - hope, love, faith, generosity, kindness, empathy, and patience. The other is of evil - hate, jealousy, rage, sorrow, selfishness, and guilt. The wolf that wins is the one you feed.
When you allow addiction to control your life in an attempt to drown out guilt or loneliness, when you give into anger or jealousy...you feed that evil wolf inside and let it take control. It is essential to have balance and not let the darker side completely consume you. It will always be there, but the good wolf must be fed to hold back the evil wolf.
Wasn’t it two bears?
If there's a version with bears, I've never heard it and it's probably from a different tribe than mine.
@@ladycoyote992 Okay. I think it’s more about the message of duality than the animal itself.
I love this story so much I got "which wolf wins?" tattooed on my arm to remind me to feed the right wolf :)
I remember that story from Tomorrowland. I didn’t realize it was a Native American story. Good to know.

Da faq
Glad to see they have a sense of humor
POV : you accidently hit a wolf in minecraft
😂😂😂
(In hardcore mode)
and there were more wolves behind
From what I gather, it seems like this song is about facing your vices, or problems. We instinctively drown our sorrows in a variety of ways, be it drinking, smoking, driving, gaming, ect. Every time we choose to face away from the problem, the wolf gets stronger, and ultimately harder to escape which is one of the hardest truths of addiction.
Nice you got pinned in a 3 year old video congrats
No way dude!
AGAIN I think the same
Nice and truth
Nice(/'0')/
See, i half-disagree with the people saying that the girl breaking her skateboard over the wolf is a symbol of her fighting back. I see it more as a symbol of addiction taking everything, even what one loves to do. In her desperate swing, fueled by the fear that the wolf was there, she destroyed a healthy way to destress in outdoor activity and also a passion of hers. Skating seems very important to her, and the destruction of the skateboard could mean loss as much as it means fighting.
👌👌👌
I guess you nailed that theory If SIAMES agrees.
@@jbyker5851 or it could be like the English teacher meme pulling more out of it than the original author thought of but also liked as they saw other ways their work could be interpreted
noice
That's actually a really good interpretation. She was willing to give up her beloved skateboard if it meant she didnt have to face her addiction
The destruction of the bike when taking care of the other persons problem could be symbolic of how he's giving up his easy life while attempting to help this guy. Helping others isn't easy and when he does help the other man from his wolf, his problems, it makes him vulnerable as well. This could also be shown by how he had the other girl jump on, he's taking on her burdens to try and help her *escape* (big difference) alongside him. By committing this sacrifice he no longer escapes his problems while helping others, by helping others he now has to learn how to fight his own problems.
That's deep. You're really smart to have figured that out
Maybe... Steven Universe in a nutshell?
anyer hinojosa wait a second..... that’s literally the exact plot I had to do a double take for a second
if thats the case than the meaning of running will only make the prolems multiply is true as well here. love deep thinking.
but than I need to ask why no one accepts the problems and WORK with them.Sure its hard if they come around but hitting back on them like 1:40 only will make them snowball you even harder. work with or on your problems , akt like an adult should akt and all will be clear in time.
HMM THIS MUSIC SO COOL!!!
FNAF
Bro, I listen to this when i was 13 and now im already in the university. Its was a good time, i really miss those memories lol❤
Same

In all fairness to the motorcycle guy, sometimes running is a smart move if the problem is legit overwhelming. There were likely the same number of wolves at the start of his journey, who's to say they didn't become tired from his efforts?
His tactical retreat, using an adaptive coping mechanism (motorcycle) gave him time to find friends and face the wolves together. He was even able to use his mechanism to eliminate somebody else's wolf, leaving that person free to help him in return.
Motorcycle guy was clearly never a coward, as he risked his life to save the girl and glasses guy without hesitation. Rather, he had a strategy that worked for a time, which he had to give up on once he realized that there were other people in his life that also needed help. This gave him the courage and strength needed to face his wolves head-on.
There's a middle ground between always running and always fighting. There's no shame in running for a time, as long as you retain a value system and set of personal beliefs that will compel you to eventually take up arms and fight again.
I really loved this comment, it gives a new perspective to the video thanks man
lol
Sometimes you can't fight though. Sometimes they have a gun and you don't.
Couple of days ago people broke into my home and held me at gunpoint. I was ready to fight to the death but I asked them what the f they wanted and they where just looking for loot. They f'ed off after I handed over my cash.
Now I'm running. What am I supposed to do. Can't go back there again. They threatened to kill me if the cops got involved but I was already on the phone with them as they made that threat. Can't fight them. Sometimes running is the only option you have.

@@cheesemaster6463 It is quite complicated and I hope that you could understand their troubles
The duality in the lyrics is very subtle. It’s a conversation almost between the wolf and the person it’s chasing, really interesting.
Underrated comment!!
Well when you think about it the wolf and who it’s chasing are both the same being.

Speed nice
I personally agree with you on the animation
It's beautiful to look at
*sniff* i wish i could animate like that but the only thing i have for my gud ol'samsung tablet is flipaclip
2017:good music

Ik everyone under the sun has talked about the symbolism of addiction with each character but I really enjoy how each character reacts to the wolf and the details you can derive from their reactions.
how the glasses guy who a lot of people think he's an alcoholic but I don't think people ever really say that the coin he has is likely a sobriety chip, the way he examines it and hands it away after getting that drink makes it feel very much like it is him falling back into the addiction rather than it being a constant, and his reaction to the wolf reflects that as he runs out of fear of his addiction returning.
the girl initially reacts with some fight, but after seeing it has no effect resorts to running, which could give the idea that she's tried to quit before and failed, ultimately choosing to run from the problem rather than stand ground and face it.
even though we don't really see the reaction of the biker (probably because with his addiction theorized to be thrill seeking and speeding it's likely the wolf just showed up while he was riding and he saw it) what you can see is how determined to outrun the problem and when finally has to confront the wolves he is visibly teared up over it but ultimately chooses to stand his ground.
just love the personality of each character shining through and giving a insight as to not only their addictions but their willingness to overcome them
Thank you for mentioning sobriety chips. That scene reminds me of something from when I was little.
I used to live in a city that had a sleezy bar where people who were backsliding from recovery could come in and give the bartender a sobriety chip for a free drink. The fucking rat bastard owner would even nail some of them to the wall like a trophy.
Thankfully the bar owner was caught breaking several serious laws including trafficking Cocaine and was forcibly shut down and arrested.
You also never actually see him drink, so I think you're spot-on with the recovering alcoholic idea
@@egalomon never even noticed that detail good eye
What if the bike guy didn't even have an addiction? He could just be someone who's trying to help others with their addiction.
Everyone is gonna see their own journey
Can we appreciate whoever running SIAMES channel?
They heart every neat analogies and pin really good ones.
And they do it pretty frequently,there's always new pinned comment everytime i watch this video.
Like holy damn,that something i can respect.
Besides that,i also want to give appreciation to all of those who do those analogies.
You guys are always come up with something new and pretty interesting things that can be added to each other or even create a new point of view.
That like of the most cool and awesome comment sections i ever seen and seems like it will be like this to the very end.
Thanks! We do it ourselves! (Piano Blakk here now)
@@SIAMESmusic cool. what other songs from your discography should I check out? I'll be honest this is the only one i've ever seen and listened to and I dont know where else to go.
@@TheBroGamer14082 check out Mr. Fear
@@TheBroGamer14082 Yeah, definitely check out Mr Fear
@@SIAMESmusic love the song btw dude
Everyone is talking about the video but can we take a sec to appreciate this guys vocals. Like my god👍😍
I remember when this song just realized 1 month ago, now is 7 years, insane
released
Also your account was made 11 months ago lil bro
@@SuperFakerLogan dude you know exist multi acconts, well this is one of these, you got it? Or you idiot?
You see this is one of these🐿@@SuperFakerLogan
the animation is like a little case study on the impact of dynamic camera angles, perspective shots, and fast transitioning on emotional storytelling and it's very cool to see it done this well. also the amount of abstract shape transitions is super brain tingly.
ah yes this is big brain time
it sure it!! Also the late inclusion of red into the b&w is a breathtaking shift.
literally. this is huge inspiration for anyone who wants to animate or draw interesting perspectives
I kinda saw it as "how can we chuck in a lot of our favourite bits from famous anime on an absolute shoestring by going minimalist but keeping the parts which make them recognisable and magnificent". And they pulled it off brilliantly.
How long does it take to anime this sort of music video?
2 years later, they still keep coming to read the comments. That's just awesome, ty for the song, and rudo for that animation video
The Head is the Glasses dude, The Heart is the girl and The Mind is the bike guy
The glasses dude escapes from stress, maybe family one (the red scene the guy grabs his head, with stress you get headaches) The Girl has a broken heart, The red scene shows her trying to grab someone, even screaming. and the Bike guy is depression, falling into the sad abyss, everything is be sad, every moment every decision, maybe that's why there is many wolves.
Sr Pelo holy SHET
AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HYGOUGH
WHOSE TOUCHING THE CHILD???
ГДЕ РОЛИКИ С МОККИ А?!
real shit?
My interpretation is that the chorus of the song is sung by two different characters. The part where it goes "I'm out of my head, of my heart and my mind" is sung by the individual human characters in the video who're going through their struggles with their addiction. It's driving them insane, hence the text about them being out of their mind.
But the part where it goes "Cause you can run but you can't hide, I'm gonna make you mine" and "Cause I can feel how your flesh now is crying out for more" is sung by their dark desires for the substances that they're addicted to, by the wolves themselves so to speak. Their "wolves" are chasing them, haunting them to indulge further and fall deeper into the hole.
Everyone who loved this song,
I highly recommend you have a listen to their full album, "bounce into the music"
"The wolf" is definitely the best track in my opinion, but the other tracks have grown to be some of my favorite songs and they each have their own fantastic charm and meaning to them
I just want Siamés to get the recognition they deserve
Yeah, I'm glad I found this video. The band is great!
I want to like this new band,not just for the sake of "Yeah I listen to something new and underground" but to really get into it
The Wolf and Firestorm are actually my favourite ones
I love your profile picture and name
Thanks for the recommendation~

i may sound stupid, but here goes nothing. when i found this I was in a bad place in life, my parents were divorcing, my mom was just diagnosed with cancer, and i was failing in school, and i was NEVER into listening to music, but one day two and a half-ish years ago, I was playing video games and listening to something on youtube with my shitty headphones on, and autoplay was on, so I wasn't looking and this came on and it immediately caught my attention, and for some reason it really spoke to me, I don't know how to explain, but it really motivated me and helped me get rid of my shitty gaming addiction, so i started taking school seriously and the same with my health, and I'm happy to say in one year, I'm going to Harvard to study business and entrepreneurship. So yeah, I'm proud of myself.
sorry if this came off as rambling, I may go to Harvard, but I still can't write a decent paragraph.
Thanx so much for sharing it with all of us! We are more than honored by helping you with our music! Keep it up! 🎶❤️
Congratulations! It must feel awesome to have turned your life around like that! 😊❤
Congratulation! You really just inspired me bro( ˘ ³˘)♥ all my hard work are all because i am aiming to harvard
Good for you bro. Good for you.
Congrats dude, Ad Victorium! May your future be filled with fortune, and may luck shine in your favor.
Plot Twist:
The Wolf just wanted directions to the 3 pig's houses.

Yes. Yes all the way
what if their the pigs . WTF SEEMS SO OBVIOUS BUT I DIDNT NOTICE
or perhaps Red Riding Hood's house? :D

Kirbyluver2005
That's perfect. omg
Glad people still listen to this masterpiece 7 years later still one of my fav songs
SAME!
Since I see people looking for the answers still...here's what I took from it...
The wolf represents your problems, The Guy on the bike is running away from his problems, The guy buying the alcohol is an alcoholic spending his last coin on alcohol, and the woman is addicted to cigarettes, the end of theusic video represents that everyone is stronger together and as such you can face your problems together
You got pinned And hearted by siames. I agree with you.
Low key ecstatic that you guys pinned this, fell in love with you guys a couple months ago been hooked on your style, love it!
I feel took that away as I used to run away from my problems or try and hide from them...but I fixed them since and am on the road to becoming better over all, I am actually starting by becoming the first Trans VTuber...

Holy shi they liked my comment

Ikr?! This came out when I was 11 and I was obsessed, now having overcome drug addiction and being nearly 17 really makes this song hit different, growin up made me understand the symbolism. Amazing art amazing message
The one and only
Fellow Cesar spotted in the wild hello
@@cesar_toryy I got lost pls help me /j
This song is interesting because I think it’s being sung _by_ the wolf _about_ the people. “You can run but you can’t hide, I’m gonna make you mine.” It’s from the villain’s perspective.
😉
And the second to last chorus of “I’m out of my head, of my heart, of my mind” sounds like an echo in the background- almost as if the wolf’s POV has shifted to the people who’ve succumbed to the addiction
the wof is part of the person, it is a part of their own mind, the adiction (like the dark side inside all of us)
you ever hear that tale about the white wolf and the black wolf, the one you feed is the one you win? yeah, this is the black wolf, the adiction, the bad things, and we need to let the white wolf inside of us win.
so this mixture of some lines being from the wolf, and some being from the person, is acctuly briliant, because it is all about the realization, that the wolf is not an extarnal figure, but internal, is inside of us, it IS US! we are figthing ourselfs.
I remember watching this as a kid 5 years ago and liked it only because of how it sounded and now I came back to it now as an adult (20yo) and gave it a better look at the lyrics and the animation and I have to say WOW I can't believe that this goes so much deeper than I could have ever imagined when I was young! It's so amazing to finally realise what's it's all about seeing that the lyrics and animations portray some people's reality like addiction, loneliness, stress, avoiding problems in life, even random encounters with strangers with the same or different problems! This song is truly something else and I am glad I revisit it! SIAMES you rock 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥
Just realized the line "not too young not too old." Is a reference to the fact addiction can literally hit you whenever, also I'm in a state where my flesh is crying out for more, thanks for helping me through
If your pet flesh monster is crying out you probably aren't feeding it enough, perhaps a treat?
@@JacobSca DON'T MENTION FOOD, IT EXCITES IT
The only way to truly be free is through Jesus Christ, I strongly urge you to repent and seek Jesus. Think about it, the infinite and almighty God who cannot even be contained by the heavens chose to confine himself to a human form to die for your sin. The Bible says that all of us have sinned and that we are all deserving of death because the wages of sin are death. Jesus Christ took our sins upon himself and died for them. But behold, Jesus Christ rose from the grave 3 days later and he has victory over death and sin. Jesus Christ can set you free if you accept him as Lord and Savior. He who the son sets free is free indeed!

Saw this back when I was a teenager, this masterpiece really sparked my passion for animation and music. Still freaking amazing like my first watch.
I've been listening to this for the past 4-5 years and l still love it. Also I'm a beginner animator so I can relate so much
Omg same I saw this back in middle school, now I’m revisiting this now while I’m in college studying animation. It’s truly inspiring
@@z0mbiegyaru I’m about to go to College for Animation and I just saw this video and it solidified that I made the right choice!
wait but why am i fr obsessed too this song...i cant..its juust SO GOOOOOD
I have stated my version before but since it has been a while I will do so again. No matter what they are running from nothing changes until they stand against it. Even if you lose, stand, fight, don't go down in fear.
Yes👌
😭 so true
Can confirm, this approach also works against girls. Don't let them run you down from behind
Fam idk bout' you but if i'm getting chased by wolves I'm getting the FUCK OUT OF THERE
The girl faced her head on (she literally smashed her skate on its head) but it didn't do much
I just love how SIÁMES doesn't say a thing about their music videos, like this. Instead they let their fans make theories. Which makes the videos even more fun to watch, because there's so many different ways to think about them! I've been looking for more and more theories every day! Keep up the good work RUDO and SIÁMES!
papa👨👨👨👨👨
If you think about it it's just like most artists (that are not in the music industry) do it. If you look at a painting, there usually isn't an explanation by the artist.
I love when the lady hits the wolf with her skateboard first rather then just running immediately. She tried to fight the problem and then fled once she saw how ineffective it was. That's so freaking real.
She'd been faster if she hadn't slapped her strength right into the problem's face tho.
Waste of energy to try bitchslapping a problem.
@@RavenWoodsDE Also so fucking real
@@RavenWoodsDE i mean, who expects a wolf to tank a skateboard broken off of his face?
Jesse P well if you would see a wolf coming towards you your first reaction would be to get somthing to defend yourself
You even see the moment she realises it wasnt enough when her eye widens
not sure why i ever stopped listening to siames… this used to be one of my favorite songs
I´ve been dealing with depression my whole life, isolating myself and avoiding my life, putting a facade in front of everyone and shutting myself with my thoughts while they eat me from the inside everyday... Recently i figured that the problem was not on the outside, they were inside of me and i refused to fight them, after that i started using music as a form of therapy and a few days ago i found this video and... I just wanted to say thanks for helping me get out of that hellhole that i thought was my life :)
We know what you're talking about, so glad to help with music 🎶🙌 keep it up!
Heyo. I'm in the same boat.
You're not alone mate, and I wish you the best in overcoming the endeavor.
no cap it really be like that
@@SIAMESmusic I was looking all around the internet trying to find a tutorial on how to play this song, but i haven't been able to find one. Have you ever considered publicising sheet music so that people can learn to play. I think alot of people would like to learn how to play this song for themselves or others.
@@aetherian_wolf go to lyricwulf channel, his sheets are free too.
If you play piano though

... Whoa. Huh. That was something. Gimme a sec, let me watch that again.
Kyra Grymm Me the first time I watched it. Except on my part there was more gawking and trying to find my sis so I can show it to her. xD
I have to admit, I shared it with a lot of people.
Kyra Grymm that's a good thing

...
i have watched this 26 times today.
Various people suffer because of various reasons! The wolves are a metaphor for human problems! Each of the 3 people shown in the video are suffering because of different reasons, but they are trying to escape them. Then they learn that the only way to end their suffering is to face their problems together! that's why the bike guy helps the girl and the other guy. I think this video is an allegory for how the society should work and how it shouldn't.
*Alcohol - ONLY for adults.* Otherwise, the wolf will pop out of the glass and eat you. ( ͡ಠ ͜ʖ ͡ಠ)
(my humble interpretation:) ┐(͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖)┌
After 2 years and this pace is still alive
So the glasses guy is an alcoholic, and skater girl is a smoker... is the other guy addicted to vintage scooters?
In our head, our heart and our mind
Mokey beat ya to that conclusion.
It’s crazy how successful this song is.. 4 years later and you’re at almost 150 MILLION views. That’s how influential this song is for others. Major props to the creators and the animation team, you guys went above and beyond and I’m super happy to see how much that hard work paid off.
To find a physical manifestation for addiction and put it into an anime setting. Showing the struggle the chase the fight. I think we can all appreciate that. I know I've watched this video myself at least 50 times
Just past it now lol
151 million views, its a good song
imagine how many money do youtube gave them lol
@@V1_ULTRAOFFICIAL. honestly, with RUclips trying to deny giving every penny to youtubers, I wouldn't be surprised if he only got a couple 10s
oh my god What is happening. why did we all suddenly remember this song?
I feel like a curse might've just been lifted off of this song, and everyone who loved it are flocking back in to listen to it after months or years
The Wolf is alive, always was, and always will be ;)
Why tf did my friend saying head remind me of this song
It's pretty wild. I know some folks came here from an influencer based on the comments, but many of us seemed to have just remembered the song at the same time. Pretty cool.
the fact that i can still watch this video after so many years and still get full body chills- absolutely amazing
Ikr
Notice how the wolves only come out when they're at their most vulnerable position? The glasses man, once he gets his drink, the wolf comes out. The girl, when she stops skateboarding to stop and light some cigarettes, the wolf comes out. She attempts to fight her problem with skateboarding, but it came back. The motorcycle guy is a different story. His problems are always chasing him because his driving is his getaway and his problem.
These wolves come out when they start doing their problem, be it drinking, smoking, and constant adrenaline/driving.
All of these people have their own type of problem. Glasses guy, his problem is drinking. His getaway is also drinking, but he doesn't always drink. Skateboard girl, her problem is smoking, and she tries to fight it with skateboarding. Motorcycle man, his problem and his getaway is adrenaline/driving, pretty similar to glasses man but it's always chasing him.
This song is incredible, I remember watching this 3 years ago, but somehow I never gave it a like. This video is super popular now, before it wasn't as well known as it is today.
But at the end though. They came together. This could be a messege that when people have problems, difficult or not, had someone as support, it will be better ! Nice!
thank you for explanning the meaning omg, this song is so amazing with this animation.
Regardless of theories, and all that. Can we all just agree that this would scare us shitless if it actually happened? A wolf made of darkness that can suddenly shift into some abomination thing.
I would want it as a pet
Me:Mmmmmm,nature cooked some spicy creatures
And probably only people with the wolf monsters can see them because like where the fuck are the police
I mean. Skateboard.
Hundreds of Black Shucks!
Why is everyone here from the last 24 hours? Did the algorithm just bless us this day?
It's a sign of the times.
Welcome to the final show.
Yes
that has to be the best animated music video, it fits the song so well and is done perfectly. and the song is just amazing, might have just found me a new favorite
SIAMESTV
your welcome for the support, i sure hope that one day you guys will become popular, i will make sure to share all your works. i also noticed that your album is on apple music. good luck! :3
I agree with you Fox. It is so rare to fine a music video that matches the meaning of the song, let alone that one that does it perfectly. It leaves just enough to interpretation while still really fleshing out the meaning of the song.
You should watch shelter
It's a lot like the mystery skulls
I've been watching a lot of them recently! I really like Ghosts.

That animation right there oh boy
good shit.
blah yes
blah IKR 😍❤️

the whole video is a great animation
"You can run but you can't hide"
That's where you're wrong, buddy.
I can't do either.
Yeah, I'm too much of a chubby fuck to run faster THAN A FUCKING WOLF!
Slender Man
Lol! But your the slender man, not only are you able to take extremely long strides with those legs of yours but your not even chubby. You should be able to run just fine, besides can't you use your psychic powers to disorient the wolf when the look at you and teleport away?
Shadow the Winged Wolf Your profile pic matches this comment perfectly
Slender Man irony at it's finest considering your username is slenderman
Is not one going to address the fact that this commenters username is Shadow the winged WOLF ...
This song is timeless the animation moreso too. The haunting wolf call, the danger you feel, how hopeless it all feels, and just how much it takes from you until you fight back
