WOODZ- 'Human Extinction'

I also think "Feels Like" would be a good contrast for Tim to listen to, maybe?

I have little helpful to add about the music video. I only sort of (maybe) figured out what’s going on by watching it several times & watching other people’s reactions to it (especially those of people who are Korean).

I tried to organise my thoughts on the MV: The girl said at the start "I want to become her", so she was trying to look like the other girl. She was dressed in dark colours and other girls bright so maybe she just wanted to join them, but it looks more like she wanted to literally become her. And it kind of looks like one of the girls got hit by a car and died but I don't know which. I'm leaning towards the copycat, because she was the one light was shining on when the crash sound effect happened. But then again, she was there in the end when the fireworks were happening. So the crash might be more metaphorical, by taking that photo with the flash on she exposed herself. She couldn't hide her hidden envy anymore. So the light+crash sound effect might simply be a cut to the doctor's storyline. The 2nd storyline was the hoarder who can't let go of things and feeling like he needs to hide it, to wash off the smell so people won't find out. And he was not even letting go when the police came to take things away. There have been some theories that he might have been driving the car that crashed, but I don't really see that connection. Though, I am a bit confused why the cops were there. Unless it was fully a metaphorical hoarding. Then the cops aren't real either, but they're the outside world that is judging him after his hidden hoarding of "stuff" came to light. There could be any number of "stuff" people do or think about and carry with them that they don't want anyone to know about. But then you feel like it's so visible, like the stench that won't wash off no matter how hard you try or hide it with perfume. And 3rd, the doctor. It looked like he had lost a patient, and/or his daughter? I had originally that the death of his patient reminded the doctor of his lost daughter. But it might be that he was imagining the girl as his own. Also, for the doctor, in addition to the "loses his patients and has to live with that" there might also be "the life of a doctor might seem glamorous, it's a very high paying job. But there is also the hidden dark side people don't often think about - death of a patient". The painting shown behind him is Edvard Munch' "At The Deathbed" And finally, Woodz himself was an objective observer, or the "light" shining in the darkness and revealing the "dark" side of life. He's mentioned the song being about how the attention of "fame" is like a light, and poses the question if the person can handle his whole life being exposed like that. And about the selection of the title he said, it's more like knowing the possible future of extinction makes you appreciate the present that you have right now all the more. P.S. The song isn't talking about the end of the world. But it would fit perfectly as a post apocalyptic soundtrack.
