    I am Harshdeep, an independent filmmaker and a published author. This is my breakdown of the music video of the popular song High Hopes by Pink Floyd. There is a much deeper meaning to it than what most people realize. So much thought was put into making this one that it feels like a disrespect to the art if you do not pay attention to the video.

    I always thought that the part where the apples are rolling into the street comes from the saying don't upset the apple cart. meaning don't spoil things that were good.

    The huge black cape represents aging and the struggles of moving forward in life as you get older. The bigger the cape,the stronger the wind,the harder the walk into adulthood and eventually old age and finally, death. Every man carrying his division bell on his back is self - explanatory.

    it is worth mentioning that the white flowing balls are a clear reference to British 60's television series The Prisoner, where the balls act as a kind of mysterious watchers, punishing anyone that will not conform to that strange society. A highly recommendable watch

    Encumbered forever by desire and ambition
    There's a hunger still unsatisfied
    Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon
    Though down this road we've been so many times
    These are one of my favourite lines in this song. David does some magic with his fingers after this, it always hits me hard, always gives me a cathartic experience ❤️
    Thanks for making me understand this song better !

    Pink Floyd is the most creative and innovative band of all time
    You listen to their sounds man, literally all of their songs have very different composure and yet still they know how to make it all so perfect that it pleases the ears of the listener
    You should definitely check these long songs of pink Floyd if u havent yet like "echoes" "shine on you crazy diamond" "dogs" "pigs" "sheep" "atom heart mother" etc
    Love to see there are some indians who really embrace and love to listen to bands like pink Floyd
    I would also like to recommend best long songs i ever hears to u
    "Octavarium by dream theater" and "supper's ready by Genesis" please do give these songs too a try if u want to and i would really love it if u decoded the hidden meanings and philosophical aspects of all the other songs of pink Floyd too + the other 2 songs i mentioned rn:)

    Fantastic. The sharing of your perspective in itself IS the artist in you. Everyone has an artist inside, existence is the ever flowing constant vibration of creation and creating. We then, are inseparable from the artist inside.

    What a great video Harsh.. short & concise! I would also love to see more lengthy in depth stuff in future :D
    Also have you seen this channel called Polyphonic, there he talks about songs from a music & lyrical perspective, he has done a complete series on the Dark Side of the Moon(my favorite), check him if you haven't and keep making awesome videos like this one 🤟

      Wholeheartedly agree. They are truly the meaning of legendary, esoteric, benevolent. It's a hard time for one other band for myself...but they're beyond just some band.
