Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's always around me, all this noise
But not nearly as loud as the voice saying
"Let it happen, let it happen (It's gonna feel so good)
Just let it happen, let it happen"
[Chorus 1]
All this running around
Trying to cover my shadow
A notion growing inside
Now all the others seem shallow
All this running around
Bearing down on my shoulders
I can hear an alarm
It must be morning
[Verse 2]
I heard about a whirlwind that's coming 'round
It's gonna carry off all that isn't bound
And when it happens, when it happens (I won't be holding on)
So let it happen, let it happen
It's gonna feel so good
It's gonna feel so good
[Verse 1]
It's always around me, all this noise
But not nearly as loud as the voice saying
"Let it happen, let it happen (It's gonna feel so good)
Just let it happen, let it happen"
It's gonna feel so good
[Chorus 2]
All this running around
I can't fight it much longer
Something's trying to get out
And it's never been closer
If my take-off fails
Make up some other story
But if I never come back
Tell my mother I'm sorry
[Bridge]
(Gibberish)
[Outro]
Baby, now I'm ready, moving on
Oh but maybe I was ready all along
Oh I'm ready for the moment and the sound
Oh but maybe I was ready all along
Baby, now I'm ready, moving on
Oh but maybe I was ready all along
Oh I'm ready for the moment and the sound
Oh but maybe I was ready all along

I just realized...
The scene where the plane goes through turbulence, notice how the other 3 people shown are "asleep" and not waking up to the plane crashing. It seems like they've already accepted their deaths and he's next on the "plane" to accept it.
This video gets deeper and deeper the more you watch it and I love it.
Another interpretation would be that he is hallucinating / dreaming. When he takes one seatbelt off , 3 appears meaning he cannot escape death. Same thing with the sandwich, it's talking to him , only he can see it , only he can the plane go havoc , only he knows it's gonna happen.
Good pov though
They're asleep cause its a dream he's having on his way to death. He died on the terminal, never got on the plane remember?
I choose to think those 3 sleeping people are the ones who don’t care about living anymore, they’ve given up. The reason he has so many belts put on him is the fact that everything is just telling him to give up (even his sandwich xd) and as the plane is crashing he still wants to live. So rather than just accept it and give up with the others on the plane he tries to escape and thus is able to go on to the next life gracefully, knowing he tried everything to stop it, rather than just going down with the plane.
@@noahbritton7122 if you can find a fight its worth it huh? thanks
@@Artemis_simetrA true
3:12 onward is just freaking amazing. I love it.
SIMON AND MARTINAAA
Eat Your Kimchi Hi, martina and simon!! love you guys!! Say hi to Spudge and the cat (forgot the name)
+Eat Your Kimchi Haha
Oh my god!!
+Eat Your Kimchi you are so right! Feel good music !!
The best feeling is waking up from a dream where you did something terrible or something really bad happened to you and you realize it was all a dream. The worst feeling is having something really good happen to you and then waking up to the stress of reality.
The worst feeling is when you can't believe what is really happening and for a few seconds you think you're about to wake up, but instead you have a face-crash with a tragedy
@@tulipstone the brain organization use the time on the dream differently to about when you are wake up . When you are wake you have remember the last picture of your dream so you feel like all thing you have on the dream was a few minute.
Those dreams where your teeth fall off, and upon waking up you sigh in relief after checking all your teeth with tongue lol
@@herlock2 some say that when you have this dream your family member will pass away
I have these dreams all the time and noone passed away
Also, thats a terrible thing to say
It's one of the very rare perfect songs.
Clearly a 10/10.
Indisputably
grave
Totally agree!
I would say it's overperfect
fr
I really like how he tries to take off his seat belt at 2:36 just to find three more seat belts holding him in place. No escaping the inevitability of death. Great song, great video.
It struck me that the extra belts were mimicking in his dream, the chest pressure felt by heart attack victims.
SANDSCORCHER underrated comment
Then when he finally let go he escaped
more like inevitability of life
oh I didn't notice that, pretty cool, thanks!!
Kevin Parker made a statement summarizing the whole song, "finding yourself always in this world of chaos and all this stuff going on around you and always shutting it out because you don't want to be part of it. But at some point, you realize it takes more energy to shut it out than it does to let it happen and be a part of it." This song and quote changed my entire life.
Thank you so much! People are so closed to the idea it's just about death. I think it could be more about psychedelic trance ego death. Your quote helps me see there's more!
I'd rather keep on shutting out people's horrible sense in fashion choice and choice of music, and let's face it why would they care for me, unless they're family or a friend, besides there's a lot of ugly people out there, but I do believe in being free once you die
Dam ... I got that loud & clear... An epiphany explained in so many words..
I'll always resist this world, love the music, but that message is not good.
@@notaplasticexistence at least it should get taken carefully & not followed universally, as the past of my home country during the 30s & early 40s shows...
at 3:34 when he stops fighting against the fall and begins to accept what's happening, the way his face changes from tormented despair to warm happiness is so good man. I hope that's how we all feel when our time comes and we face the maker.
I was about to comment something similar to this when came across your comment but dying of natural cause must be an amazing experience
@@lokesterridk if something amazing, but, imagine dying as an old person, yeah its sad but you did everything you could do in life, you completed your life
@@Franzinho_0802 i agree, let’s pray it’s how we all get to go
JUST LET IT HAPPEN
maybe this is what we live for... the moment of... absolute bliss.
2:28 i love how once the plane starts shaking, only the guy is panicing, since it's only his pain and stress, pretty cool detail
Reminded me of that fightclub scene
The others are just people that let it happen
@secho88 ikrrr
Peak symbolism... As soon as he realised how peaceful and beautiful it was he just let go of it... All that stress he left behind...
@iliveinadysfunctionalfamily286A point that’s further driven home by the fact that he’s the only one without an oxygen mask.
Poor guy just wants to get home and relax. Instead he's overworked, stressed, dead, what a life.
it's not a life he's dead
Yeah, this music video makes me so sad. I feel so bad for the guy (and yes I'm aware it's fictional, my guys). At least wherever he's finally headed looked pretty sweet.
@@Spamhard what's sad is this is realistic fiction, this is some people's lives, a reality.
@@marie3542 Yup, that's why it strikes such a chord. I've been in jobs where I was so stressed I was crying in bathrooms on the daily. The concept of dying while being that stressed and anxious is a real sad tale.
I'm the 900th like.
Its amazing that the song is about acceptance to death. the guy obviously dies in the very beginning, hes on the metaphorical plan taking a trip to the afterlife. he fights it the first time, playing back to earlier that day, where he could have done something, anytthing, different in order to save himself. the second time hes on the plane hes confused by whats in front of him, and is scared as death takes him. He lets go of the only thing keeping him grounded to reality (the seat) and allows his soul to move on. The afterlife takes him and brings him to the light, and since hes given up the fight, nothing the paramedics could do would save him. I cant tell whats better, the representation of the song or the actual song itself.
I’ve been waiting for someone to say this!!! You nailed it!!
Also, the confused face and act he has at the beginning, is showing our stressful and empty modern lifestyle. It's all work and a being scared of "whirlwind" taking everything if we don't fit in the system...
I think this is the perfect explanation to the video without getting too meta or over analyzing!
Wow you nailed the explanation of the video.
I’ve been coming back to this song every day since my father died. I hope it was easy for him, I hope he wasn’t in pain before he passed. My heart is crushed, this video makes me feel like his travel to the afterlife was a kind one.
So everything that happens is within the few seconds that he dies on the airport floor. His mind spends every alternate universe where he would have made another decision that morning ... All possibilities culminate in his death.
This song touches me deeply, I think maybe in everyone who experienced this feeling of death close by. A song about accepting death, about accepting life. Don't wait to let it happen only when there is no more choice.
felt this :(
Death is a life goal
I've had this feeling before my first ever bad trip
It ain’t that deep
🙏🏼🙏🏼
His calm acceptance at the end really makes me feel something. I see this music video as him letting his old self die, the one that was so attached and worried all the time. The plane is his journey through it and he initially tries to fight it only to have more seatbelts strap him in, the only way through is to let go, which he does at the end. I love it.
Great deduction man wow
he had to let it happen
Thats a very nice Idea you have and youre interpretation of this song seems almost to accurate if u ask me😂
The scenes where the man is suspended in the darkened clouds as they are shocking his heart to bring him back are so beautifully done. I love how he's suspended and writhes his body around, and then the white graphics trail out from around him as they shock him. Cinematically this is really beautifully done.
It is my favorite part of the video. Beautiful.
Couldn’t agree more, it’s so creative and beautifully done.
And the music around that part. It's a masterpiece
Thanks for putting this into words, I was just feeling the same way - great video overall, but that part really sticks in my head!
I also love the bit where it transitions from him being on the plane looking at the giant alarm clock to being back in the hotel room - the actor does a terrific job of portraying the confusion and panic.
The defibrillator scene is simply perfection. From the actor's body movement to his outline syncing with the lightning in the dark clouds behind him and everything fitting so well to the rhythm.
It never fails to make me cry.
I thought the exact same thing!! From how it mirrors the 3 separate realities of him dying, to how it shows him being dropped into position with the lines of his body echoing out with the defibrillator's shocks, to the windiness creating further chaos/ethereality around him, just-- ugh, so, so good. My absolute favorite part of this video.
These two comments opened my eyes
@@waldennia5457 exactly
omg omg, i was literlly thinking the exact same. the movement, the music and the lightning is just so fucking... ahh, eyegasm and eargasm i´m not going to lie. finally people relate the same!!
Everytime i watch the video i notice new details.If you pause the first defib pose, his face looks like a skull 💀
3:12 to 3:18 is literally the coolest sequence I've ever seen in a music video. Love this song.
Yes! I listen to the entire song just to hear the moment that guitar kicks in. Funky lick with incredible tone, and it perfectly dissipates the tension the melody before it built up. 10/10, chefs kiss
Inteligent secuence
My favourite one!
I feel like I heard that one before.
Spot on!
I had an esophageal spasm at 18 which is commonly mistaken for a heart attack, but can happen to anyone at any time.
I genuinely thought I was going to die that night in the ER. The visuals of this music video is exactly what it felt like to feel my heart stop twice and feel all the blood in my veins slow down as I fell to the floor in slow motion. 3:10
Except... the sound of the song as well as the title of it bring it a certain peace that was unknown to me...
This song is just a masterpiece.
damn
thank you for sharing
I really love this actor, he just did a phenomenal job
omg that house pic
@@evilferris I messaged him , I loved his acting the SOng too
@@BA-bo7kx I’m sure he would really appreciate you for the recognition, I say go for it!
@@BA-bo7kx please tell him! Let it happen! Lose the self consciousness and shyness! Lose yourself! And reinvent yourself!
👌
At 0:30 right as he sings, "Let it happen", the plane takes off directly through his chest at the exact moment his heart gives out, and I believe it symbolizes his soul exiting the body. Fucking incredible detail.
Also, I noticed that as the medic uses the defibrillator on him, he has lines of light that burst off around him and that escape the black borders, the only thing that does escape the borders in the whole video. I wonder if this symbolizes his soul struggling to leave the body as the medic tries to resuscitate. I noticed that during the 3 shock attempts, he takes 3 different poses. The last pose looks a lot like the "Hanged Man" tarot card, which makes me wonder if the other first two poses also have significance.
Josh Hedge thats why i love this video so much, all the things you pointed out and more
Oh shit, that's true. But it's recorded on the airport and the plane is not fake, so it was a coincidence... very good placed coincidence
Josh Hedge I love how they sync their videos to the songs.
Beautiful comment
That moment at 1:50 reminds me to when I almost died of internal bleeding back in 2023, was working at an office when i sarted puking blood and passed out multiple times, had to be taken by ambulance to the hospital were they saved my life. Thats a realistic portrait of how it feels, everything starts to sound muffled and you feel your vision backing until you see everything far away, as if you were on the back of your head, then you dont feel anything and suddelny you're having hallucinations. I remember going back and forth through this until the paramedics arrived.
very interesting
i had the same internal bleed issue - except I was shidding blood lmao. lost about 2 litres, GI tract bleed
the resignation to death, the quietly thanking the staff and leaving them to their "world" as you pass out to consider your "world" which you feel to be something different to theirs... I'm so grateful to the drivers, the ambulance team, and everyone who helped me. When i was first given fluids it brought me back a bit and I was very shaken, but even the cleaning staff stopped to comfort me.
I'm glad I made it. I'm glad you're okay now, it's strange to share this feeling.
@@AdamOwenBrowninghow did that happen?
I hear that a lot from near death experience reports, that when you reach the point where your consciousness begins to disembody you often perceive your body from the third person.
My mom had an experience like that when she was getting her tonsils removed as a child. She was floating above her hospital bed and saw the doctors and nurses rush in and gather around her head. They were trying to resuscitate her body. She saw a scalpel in one of their hands and she was trying to yell at them to not cut her. She was eventually sucked back into her body and into a sleep state. She woke up later.
damn
2:48 At first, i thought these lyrics where meant to be from an anxious person that about to let it rain.
But then i realized that is the guy refusing to die, thinking that he will overthrow this situation, but after that, he just accepts it, and feels good.
The guy is such a great actor.
Lowkey hot too
he literally didn’t blink. TALENTTT
wtf is his @
michelle His name is Michael Instone
ngl I thought it was Guy Pearce at first
3:34 that smile of hope! Thats how a Man wants to pass away. Peacefully. Knowing he's met his destiny.
It’s a feeling of remembrance. It’s like “Oh, that’s right. Now I remember. This is where I came from.”
I had that experience once but it wasn’t my time so I came back. They want you to know They love you infinitely.
Video so close to people who told me,,, they died of heart attack ,only to get their heart restarted back again and living again second time , so similar like this they said they were floating, they suddenly came back to reality at hospital bed. My bro survived.
3:31 He is not falling, he is rising so when he finally realizes and accepts it... he finds peace
Baby, now I'm ready, moving on
Oh, but maybe I was ready all along
Oh I'm ready for the moment and the sound
OMGGG@@keskineren
Miles Morales 🤝 Sebastian
he just dying and it causes illusions standing on where he was and to wanna be, that's all.
Bro made a masterpiece and left people addicted to this song. Honestly this is the realest, best, relatable song I've ever heard.
The visual metaphor at 3:12 is stunning. It draws a parallel between being resuscitated by a defibrillator and being stopped mid air while falling into the abyss (the latter can be a stand in for any form of dying). The shocks of the defibrillator bring him back to life are visually shown to be similar to a string yanking him still while he’s falling down (note how his chest is extended upwards, held up while the rest of him is limp to the side, still beckoned by the gravity,the inevitability, of death). Trying in vain to stop his descent into the abyss.
Here's another detail!!!!
When hes in the air and the white shock waves effect happens, the waves break the boarder (in other words, they go above the black lines at the top and bottom), nothing else does that in the video other than the shock waves in that scene
Lol we get it it’s not that deep lol
Alright enough over analyzing this video I dont think it's that deep
That was beautiful. The structure, verbiage even down to the metaphor. Brilliant‼️😭❤️
💅👁👄👁💅 ok
Everyone sayin how they wish they could hear the song for the first time again.....
But honestly for me each time i listen to it, it gets better.
Me too, I’ve always been obsessed
EXACTLY and it’s almost the best feeling I’ve ever had
Have you noticed how the sound in the beginning is similar to an alarm going off?
That's how all tame Impala songs are for me
the first time i listened to it I didn't like it, it's one of my favourite songs now
I love that moment when the guy realizes he's not falling- he's flying.
oTTer you just have brought me to tears
Excelente video ! Cuando en su mirada se nota como se va su vida...
How did I miss that little bit after seeing this so many times
Omg. Thank you for telling us that. I didn't even notice it after watching this for like a thousand times

This song is phenomenal. It’s so surreal, and just feels ‘huge’. Gotta be one of, if not my favourite song of all time.
*A moment of silent for those who can’t find this song*

Just search up let it happen and you’ll find this easily lol
I spend 30 minutes looking for this 😔
Mitch Herode is the guy playing the guitar ?
It popped up in my recommended
This is the exact feeling of a spiritual awakening. Hearing this song from time to time awakens a remembrance in me. Makes me see the truth on a whole different level, ascending. Seeing trough the illusions of the constructions in society. My soul has something much bigger for me. Gives me strength! This song is fuel
This song's existence just isn't good enough. I want the whole world to know this song exists.
1/10 of a billion do so…
@@EliHudson-b1r Not.good.enough.
@@sonicboom126 lol
well im not a Tame Impala fan and i know and love this song... so, theres is that (?)
@@GaxMiu Mere spec but still someone nonetheless.
This song inspires me to actually just let things happen. If I’m scared for something I know has to eventually happen, I just let it happen.
This comment is so great it's juSt-
_that pfp I'm wheezing-_
When you commented on this Music you've been at the best of times....are you still here?
If 6 years ago was the best time for you that's just sad, I would kill to live a day in 2016 again.
That build-up of tension and anxiety from 2:26 until that drop at 3:11 is just... *killing me* , spectacular, *bravo* .
Julieta Wapetona same happens to me. At first, İ thought im gettin heart attack and i love that felling
I listen to this masterpiece every single day!!
For a song thats 5 years old, this song easily sounds like it can be released 10 years from now and no-one would bat an eye because of how timeless it is
So timeless it could fit anywhere within a 15 year time period.
Exactly, you can't really tell, it could be released yesterday or 15 years ago, it's extremely unique and that makes it timeless
It's gonna be 10 years in 5 days
The actor was perfect for this. The way he's looking around when you first see him, his expression after dunking his head in water, his eyes when he's being hit by the defib, and then his smile when he finally accepts whats happening.
This whole thing deserves Grammy, Oscar, Super Bowl, Stanley cup, World Series everything it’s a masterpiece
, Dundie

lmfaoo
& the Piston cup too
I agree
I love the calm serenity on his face when he's flying away to his next destination (no plane needed!)
I dont know why but even after like 20 times of listening this track I get chills everytime at the part when Kevin sings "and if I never come back, tell my mother im sorry" and the melody kicks in. Even tho I like album version more I think this is great "radio edit" of my favourite currents song.
The sandwich talking to him at that time 😂😂
Theim Ipa the fact that the video captures that PERFECTLY... seeing as how that's the only line that 'someone' speaks in the entire vid... just... perfect PERFECT.
Theim Ipa That's my fav line too
Yes! I was about to write that
Theim Ipa I hear it as "tell my *lover* I'm sorry". Am I crazy?
This makes me hopeful for an afterlife where all of the people in this crazy world with crippling stress, anxiety, and difficult situations can finally rest and be at peace. My father died a couple of months ago. He came to me in a dream. He looked younger, maybe in his twenties or thirties. He told me "I'm okay son." and we just hugged. At some point I realized it was a dream and I hoped the dream would last forever. I'll see him again someday.
You know there doesn’t need to be an afterlife for there to peace after you die. The ceasing of your consciousness should is the ultimate and endless break from reality since you can no longer feel or think and just be and not be. Sorry to hear about ur dad mine died in November a few months ago. He wasn’t doin to well here on earth and I’m happy he can finally stop hurting. But don’t be scared of what comes after death as a can assure you it’s most likely just nothingness. But try to find comfort In the fact that that one day you no longer have to worry because all you’ll become is a memory for your love ones to pass on from generation to generation, unless u become famous then you kinda live on in a lot more peoples heads
Heaven. Come to Jesus Christ, and you'll see the best afterlife!
I got chills reading this. Because I’ve had similar dreams…
I get that
@@jussmarcuss3333 yeah but you can't appreciate it because it's eternal oblivion. Some of us want to experience reality, just without pain.
Man the drummer Kevin Parker is so good.
I also love their guitarist Kevin Parker, but while the bass is pretty good and Kevin Parker is very talented.
The vocals by Kevin Parker are the best part by far..
Any problem with the Parkers?
At this point, the rest of the band is just a myth.
LOL
I thought John Parker was quite a good sandwich
The Parkers have 3 different Peter Parkers and 4 different Kevin Parkers. Makes sense
I love tame impala.
3:08 to 3:24 were the best 16 seconds of my life
I fucking swear
Facts
yes.
they really cut the best part of the song short in the music video....
ruclips.net/video/E4x3j6zknyk/видео.html
As someone who struggles to accept death and moving on, there is something SO special about this song I can't describe it. It's helped me come to terms with stuff and 'I was ready, all along,' is in my head 24/7. When my mental health is bad it's there, when whatever is happening it's there and I accept my readiness. I can't express how thankful I am for Kevin's work.
I feel the exact same way about this song.
Holy shit I also get that too
@M K I'm not here to knock your belief but as a person who questions things, why do you people keep saying that, over and over? It never happens and you keep waiting for it to do so. I don't believe in fairytales or sky master's but if that's your thing, then so be it.
@@mickeyrosa7226 the way the message is carried doesn't matter, only the message
for those that don't know, Tame Impala's music is all one man: Kevin Parker. He's a freaking genius and gives multi-instrumentalist / home studio musicians like myself inspiration, hope and massive jealousy.
He hasn't made music in awhile or not that I can tell
He tours with members of the band pond
Yes....extreme envy right here.
Wow
he is really incredible. i discovered him after the song he did with Mark Ronson. they should write a whole album together.
My first time hearing this hidden gem and I’m honestly glad I found it now.
Came to me when I needed it most.
Sometimes life is unfair,
Actually life can be unfair all the time.
But as humans every day we gotta shut up, sit up
And keep moving because that’s what makes us amazing.
How we handle the hardships and how they make us stronger.

This video represents all of my worst fears at once - loss of control, lack of understanding, loss of reality and death. They almost mix together to form a strange mixture I can't quite describe but this video somehow represented perfectly.
miLa I get that I have the same, but it somehow gives me peace? Just this video and how it’s represented
Don't worry, let it happen...
You're woke! Actually, people turn to religion to control those fears. With neat, explanations that make sense to us
@@ashwinramesh4186 I have never been a religious person (with respect to those who are) and have made that observation myself! Religion capitalizes on the primal fears that are engrained in our DNA and changes over time to become more "believable." The true beauty of it is how religion takes advantage of human nature.

@@WestonSitzHey, they sound pretty nice.
This is gonna sound weird, but listen to Psychedelic Pn Crumpets, Found God In A Tomato. Truly phenomenal.
This music video is symbolic. The story is that this man is always busy, and is not happy with his life. He has a heart attack, so he is presented with three possible deaths. He goes through each one, while in the real life, an assistant gets paramedics to try to bring him back. The man finally realized that life has turns, and eventually lets it happen. The final scene where he's falling towards a light in the clouds is him facing death.
The story is Rube Goldberg-like, and is very complex. The man didn't like change to happen, and in the end, it turns out he was prepared. Change was a being, telling him to just relax and let it happen.
"Change was a being." I like it.
Bravo 👏
+42opendoors Thanks.
interesting analysis but I feel like the last scene is his not him coming back to life, but rather he is coming to terms with the fact of his death, and after he just "lets it happen", he is at peace.
+Chad Rickman Yep, that's what I think too. When the time comes he just lets it happen. Cause his life ain't hit...
+Sheldon Andre reading the end gave me mad goosebumps
It's incredible! it seems as if he is full of doubts, worries, as if he has some existential or identity crisis (to exemplify), because he says that a notion grows in him and he sees everyone as superficial people (because they let it happen and do not overthink). A voice inside him tells him to let it happen, that he will feel good, as if telling him not to overthink. How interesting, I can relate.
"I cannot vanish, you will not scare me" goes so hard ❤

just saw them last week and it was the experience of a lifetime
I saw some live performances on RUclips. I love the band, they're brilliant really. I know he doesn't have a great voice, but it fits well with the overall vibe. I'll go to see a concert when I'll have a chance. Thanks for sharing your experience!
Tame impala is'nt a band
correction, tame impala isn’t a band, it’s a single lone composer!
I'm 24 years old and they're coming to São Paulo for a concert this week, and I'm overflowing with happiness.
Whoa. After listening to the slowed version of this for months, hearing the original is a trip. It feels so speedy.
The beat and guitar riff at 3:12 makes me have this like out of body experience every time I hear this song
People will think I'm dumb for saying this, but that should have came sooner in the song. Still a banger though.
FACT
@@Immafraid Think of it as a reward for sticking with the song for 7 minutes and 47 seconds.
that part during the live show was just a perfect musical and visual experience
The build up from there is amazing too
When I was in middle school, I had an extra nerve in my heart that would sometimes cause it to short circuit.
I'd spontaneously get tachycardia where my heart would race rapidly and not pump blood efficiently. Similar to how a roller coaster can make your stomach feel weightless, I'd feel like I was falling even while standing or laying down. The lack of oxygen in my blood would make my vision narrow... Even the feeling of a constricted chest or feeling trapped by your own body is all brilliantly depicted with the numerous buckles from the airplane seat.
They nailed all the sensations: The pain, the panic, the confusion, the calm, and even perception of reality during brain death. This video REALLY reaches me on a raw and primal level.
That's tough Man....
Cool story bro, no one cares tho
I have similar symptoms, is there a specific name for this?
@@MrDarkipower I do xD
Do you still have that extra nerve
This song really does help you just accept the present moment for what it is
Yes 👍🏻
OH MY GOD YES
The video really drives this point home. Who the hell cares if you make that flight? Who cares how big your hotel room/apartment is? You could die at any moment. Do what makes you happy.
i think its about panic attacks and how the only way you can overcome it is by let it happen
@@MegaFPVFlyererr I care if I make that flight?
I was high when I found this video. An amazing work.
I can see how the man's emotion gets changed all the time.
From frustration and tiredness in real life, he's become free, finally.
This is all my interpretations, and I hope what I guess was right about the intention of this artwork.
This song to me seems to be about anxiety. Let it happen quite literally meaning let it happen; just let go and accept what happens. To me this song is about accepting that you can't always be in control.
It's about death and letting go
I find more interesting and philosophical the "fear of death and its feeling" kind of meaning for this song. I didn't like the way Kevin view Let It Happen, he said it was a song about how we accept changes and just let them happen towards our life, that meaning feels a little basic, at least for me.
I percieved it that way as well, especially because I have health anxiety and am convinced I'm dying multiple times a day and I play out each scenario. Every. Day.
Medication has helped but I found this song because I'm scrolling to distract from my current fears instead of sleeping.
wow thank you
I agree
I have heart failure, I was given 10 years to live 12 years ago! This vid and tune is beautiful, made me ridiculously happy
Geoff Saunderson keep on rocking!
Hope to see you on here for a long time too man!
hey you made it! now lets see what corona does to all of us!
What a fcking legend. Keep rocking.
Remember folks , this isn’t a band , it’s one man putting together so many sounds to create this roller coaster ❤
Ain't no way
Really?
@@invent842 yeah its kevin parker
Love from bosnia 🇧🇦
what??? ive been listening to some of his songs for years and just finding that out wth
This song and this video have been haunting me for years now, like seriously. And one thing that I find unsettling is that the actor's face looks younger to me when he is 'dead'. Amazing work.
"Michael instone "the actor in this amazing video, was born in Sutton Coldfield to middle class parents and has one brother. In his youth Michael was unbeaten in the ring as a kick boxer but moved to study acting at The Academy of Live and Recorded Arts in London after a short spell at The Birmingham School of Speech and Drama. His first major theatre role was playing Will Parker in Oklahoma and his first speaking role was in Eastenders as a barrister. Michael is the man in the award winning music video for Tame Impala's Let it Happen. He rides a classic Kawasaki motorcycle and rock climbs.
I can’t even describe what I feel when listening to this song. There’s no way to articulate this kind of deeply sitted feeling in the soul. What a piece of magic this song is...
A strong emotion just rushing through.... as if I can almost feel it in my soul.
Pleased don't miss the 'like a version' Cover from singer Meg Mac.
Thank you
Proof the soul exists.
@@mikehawkertz9237 its called reverb
3:30 gives me chills this part is so crazy
Agreed that guitar riff slaps
The mix of knowing he died and him witnessing the afterlife
One more to make it an even 400
bro thinks hes walter white
The feeling
It start on 2:45
I can't quite explain why, but his blissful expression toward the end always makes me tear up a little 🥲 I'm touched to see him, finally free from his pain.
Damn, you too? I always get a bit misty-eyed. He's in so much pain throughout, but now it's over.
😢🙌
@ladycplum EXACTLY 💯 like, we watch this poor man going through the motions of his high-stress life, he's married and probably never gets time with his loved ones, every day is a gamble with his condition, and then finally... At first, it was scary, staving off the inevitable, but when he finally lets go, his suffering is over. Crazy stuff 😅
yeah same thing, after a long journey, he reached a happy ending. 🥲
Well, I hate to disrupt your optimism but the whole music video is actually a metaphor for opiate addiction. And well, he in fact, did _not_ let it happen at the end. I can explain more if you're interested.
Iconic masterpiece
2:26 the change up made me feel something i have never felt before
Remember: If you get anxiety attack, just let the brain heat. Dont pay attention to it. Instead view the whole situation in third person, you will calm your brain by doing this. Cause it gets confused and neurons stop firing.
My fav song of Tame impala until now.
plz don't train yourself to dissociate.
thanks👍
If you can "think your way out of" or "just ignore" an anxiety attack... Then you don't really have anxiety.
I love that they are comments like these all over the comment section of this song, y’all just some beautiful people!
@some name It works for some, at least for me. But, everyone has to find their own way, i guess. I'm no expert, just saying
Watching this video is always both a spiritual and near-death experience.
Gilliganfrog it is so cool!
Yes I had one
Last night was crazy for me
I felt a sense of unease
I try to ignore it by sleeping
But every time my mind is about to sleep
I felt something clicking my chest waking me up
And it goes on for hours
And it makes me feel like I'm about to die or something bad is going to happen to me
Coincidentally my dad is awake to pee
I told him and asked why can't I sleep?
He comforts me and says "it's gonna be alright I'll always be on your side until you fall asleep"
I always thought he dislikes me
I always thought he thought of me as weak
But every time I needed him he's there for me
I love you dad.....
As EMT, watching this video of a person’s final step toward death, when the defibrillation doesn’t work and you start to lose hope, is where I say, not only are we here to save lives, but also to accompany the final step toward death.
Thank God for people like you ❤️
I don't think I could handle doing what sort of work you do, so thank you for being there for people when they need someone most.
I'm not afraid to die now, I will have my family and brave EMT or doctors by my side
Yea thats way too intense to do, I heard a story of a kid that came back after being under cold water for almost an hour where his brain had no oxygen and his hear had stopped and he was brought back by cpr. Gives me anxiety just thinking about it like makes me want to get a chest tat that says keep zapping.
You have to break the ribs when you do cpr
“Why don’t you take a nap?”
My average nap experience:
LMFAOOO FRRR
false awakenings be like
I can not take naps, Every time I do I feel like a zombie when I wake up.
LMAO
Waking up from an afterschool nap:
i’d trade any limb to hear this for the first time again
gatphace dea its just too good isn’t it?
Same. I was in the back seat of one of my best friend's car with a ton of other great people. The first time I listened to it with my headphones on I was dumbfounded
gatphace dea i just listened to this for the first time watching this music video and I feel like I just experienced audible meth
Wes Goates I DID AND I LOVED IT OMG
@@andymejia5456 AHA HELL YES
The riff at 3:12 is amazing
I had panic disorder for 3 years and it completely changed me as a person. This song was my companion through the whole journey of recovery and trying to make sense of life and death. Every time i listen to it, I feel deep sense of serenity. Thank you for this everlasting masterpiece Kevin Parker.
give your heart to jeus cry out to god. true answer. i also like this song btw
How long did it took you to be fully recovered?
Listen to juice wrld, songs like Empty (SynBeats remix is my personal fave), Screw Juice, Legends, I’ll be fine, Rich and Blind and 900 more (this man literally has 2,000 different songs) have helped me thru suicide many many times. I couldn’t be more grateful 🖤
I would recommend seeing the movie Puss in Boots 2, The Last Wish. It has a lot to say on the topics of anxiety surrounding death and tells it beautifully. I know it's a "kid' movie", but it honestly portrays it the best I've ever seen in any type of media.
Coming as someone who had my own 3 year period of depression and anxiety and who is now in "remission", as I call it, but can still always feels that part of me threatening.
@@navidvarzeghani2789 I'm not OP, but as someone who went through something similar, I can safely say that it's not something you "fully recover" from -- you just learn how to manage it better to the point where you're functional. Bad days are bound to happen and even serious relapses are possible. You never know.
True fans don’t skip to the good part, they let it happen
Exactly
underrated comment
Every part is good
How dare you listen to part of a song you like you must have the attention span of a gold fish.
I dont know what good part you refer to. Does that make me a true fan?
I have never ever seen better story telling in a music video. 10/10, absolute chills.
@levichicwown9760 💀
hotel California
I agree
@WAGGLE666 When vecna finds out you hate monsters: 3:12
Same here! Love the bit where he tries to take his seatbelt off and 3 more appear around him. Resisting only makes it harder.
I will never be capable of thanking my sister for introducing me to this song.
Props to the cameraman for going to heaven with this guy who died of a heart attack
Fr bro
HAHAHAHHA XD LMFAO 😂😂😂
Did he though? He sure did follow him to a point but didn't head into the light...
Cameraman is our real bro

i dont skip to the best part, i just let it happen
Say that again...

You're super proud of that, aren't you?
Hell yeah
@@ИлиянДимитров-ь3оилиян иди поешь говна
The song is definitely about living life to the fullest and stop worrying. Tell the ones you love that you love them. We never know when the last time to say it.
*In the swirling symphony of Tame Impala's soundscapes, I found not an escape from reality but a deeper dive into its infinite depths. My third eye awakened, not to a hallucination, but to the kaleidoscopic truth of my own consciousness, blooming in the timeless oasis of the Mind & Heart's Eyeful sanctuary. There, in the sublime state of sonic immersion, I danced with the cosmos, a luminous spark in the infinite expanse, forever changed by the echoes of a music that shattered the mundane and revealed the boundless potential within. A cosmic nudge from the Universe was all it took for me to rediscover Tame Impala experience my reawakening. To be, is to becone, and to become is to be eternal. Endlessly so.*
I'm at my worst, and this song has just kept me going. Thank you Kevin.
Keep going 🎉
hope ur doing well
Keep on keeping on man!! Same!
.
Don't worry work hard and let it happen ❤👊
This song is hittin hard during this quarantine
This is the only song stuck in my head rn and I’m not complaining😂
yeah seriously
Spencer Clark I have kind of said the same thing but different before I read the comments. This is perfect pandemic music. Embrace one and all!!
Yep. Not much we can do but hunker down, try to be safe, and let it happen.
yep
If anyone is wondering the actors name is Michael Instone
Thank you, Love 👍🏾
Of course he is.
Guy Pierce's second cousin?
Nah mate, the way he be trippin he's *Michael Toostoned*
He's really good
Notice how everyone around him is so calm while the havoc is unfolding, yet only he is panicking at 2:31. It was only his hour that has come.
God, I don't know what's sadder, hearing this music video the first time, trying to accept how realistic the music video is, or trying to read the comments and being more depressed how each and every theory is almost sadder than the last.
Curious how this version makes you feel: ruclips.net/video/c0KG58uURAk/видео.html
@@suggestedlistening4018 i dont know if it fits as well. I guess its a different type of letting things happen although i feel like the goal of the movement in the video is to make it stop happening
And he self promotes his low effort shit
Hey! If you like Tame Impala you might like my mate's new single. He's a young Australian artist just starting out :) Cheers!

@@johnplate9862 no it gay
Am I the only one that absolutely loves that part at 3:12 where the shock waves sort of go off frame and his body is reacting to the shock waves? It honestly gives me chills. Well tbh this whole video gives me chills because of how good it is
I think it's particularly freaky because the blending of reality and wandering thoughts like when something like an alarm clock works its way into a dream instead of waking you. They've just replaced sleeping with losing consciousness while dying, so it makes it seem like a realistically plausible telling of what it's like to die. Seriously fucked up but not in a bad way...
ruclips.net/video/osN55togDNw/видео.html
3:12 is intense, no doubt. Those jolts of electricity are piercing his dying dreams, and it was at this point that I thought he'd be drawn back into his body and be revived. When instead he died, I was blown away. The "jolts" moments became even more significant-he was on a one way trip, no going back, peace out. I just about choked up.
YES. I've replayed that part for hours now. The dude gives me major Bowie vibes. Great cast
I just love the guitar riff
This song actually kinda helps with grieving for my mom who died a year ago. It’s been so hard without her and I used to watch this video and stop at the part with the defibrillators because I did the same thing for her and it didn’t work, it was too late for her but when I watch the guy go from falling to flying up i feel better because I know she’s flying too.
You should also listen to “just breathe” by Pearl Jam too. I’m sorry for your loss
Hope ur all good bro
You will eventually meet her one day, bro :) She's watching you from above, smiling and proud.
Sorry for your loss. Your mother is probably flying yea.
I'm so sorry for your loss. Your mother loves you and is proud of you
this was my older brother’s favorite music video, he would play this whenever we would hang out in his room and say he pictured himself passing away like this.
he was quite young but also had a stressful life full of work and had anxiety… six months ago he passed away suddenly from a heart attack ( genetic issues we never knew of ) and i swear this song saved my life. because after losing him and through the horrible grief, i also lost our place and all i had for a while was only his pets which i promised i’d care for.
he was the closest person to me after losing most of our family to death. it was incredibly hard for me to process it, but i “let it happen”, i let him go… and the whole time i held on to his favorite songs including this one to find comfort.
fly high erick, i love the gem you gave me to get through this. love you dude.
Okay, yours is my favorite comment and now I’m crying 😭 So sorry you had to suffer such a terrible loss. Thanks for sharing your deeper meaning for this song, I’ll be thinking of this comment any time I listen.
0:43 - 1:20 always gives me goosebumps with the creeping hypnotic sound and the surreal visuals. What a masterpiece of a song
3:11
I agree totally
Literally gives me chills

His name is Michael Instone, hes very good

That's not acid is DMT, it releases from the brain when you die :).
"All this running around
Trying to cover my shadow"
Futility of the routine, allthough he finally embraced it
"(...)But not really as loud as the voice saying
Let it happen, let it happen (It's gonna feel so good)"
It hasn't been proven that DMT releases when you die. JUST SO YA KNOW
We are all running around in a spinning hamsterwheel. Going to work, eating. sleeping and repeating. And one day we might just be gone, without warning. Enjoy life while you have it, and escape the hamster cage if you can. Tomorrow is never granted.
I totally feel that all the time
Even I interpreted the same way, it just shows how corporate life can be a slow death, "all this running around, trying to cover my shadow"
