What's really interesting is that, when I listened to the song before thjs MV, it always gave me the imagery of wolves or some other carnivorous predator due to the those types of animals seen to be needing taming, so it's REALLY interesting how this MV uses rabbits instead. Rabbits are seen as docile beings, which is probably what the church wants its members to be, but even bunnies can have a bite to them, kind of like Saros's fangs, something that they were most likely born with

The more I watch this video, the more I realize how clever the writing is. It's clearly dealing with themes of religious guilt and BDSM, and the lines about feeling collared refer to more than just the obvious kink overtones. It also refers to the way that guilt from religious hangs around your neck, like the collar of a priest.
@ennnetc
thank you vane for inventing music
@YonKaGor
This is vocal synth?? O-O Really good instrumentals and lyrics, well done !! :D
@NUISANCE_ANIMAL
one thing not enough people are talking about is the way the rabbits, while being a uniquely interesting metaphor, also happen to be fucking adorable background dancers. the way they just keep popping up at random moments doing goofy little poses aND THE TWO DOING THE TANGO DURING THE INSTRUMENTAL BREAK LIKE THEY'RE SO SILLY I CAN'T, V
@VocaloKAT

@formerly_human
The main character in this is literally fucking GORGEOUS I'm gonna draw them in my sketchbook
@calicobunny
the “what?” in order to get the listener(s) to repeat the name of the song as if in a sermon is so smart
@justexisting246
BROO “and if the world wants us to burn, we’ll join the stars and watch it turn” MIGHT BE MY NEW FAV LYRIC LIKE OMG
@XadnarVorlexus66
Well that went from religious to kinky real damn fast and I AM HERE FOR IT
@jemmajazz5442
I'm not even going to lie, this song made me tear up. I've never had a song so perfectly encompass my own feelings with religion and realizing that I like women, while having family around me actively condemn it for religious reasons. I am adding this to the playlist for sure.
@DoWeNeedToKnow
Nearing the end of the song after you see broken chains, their eyes switch from swirls to hearts. That was a really neat detail that I thought should be noticed by more people 👏
@makosinnergy
others have already pointed out the more obvious symbolism behind the rabbit imagery, but i'd like to give special mention to tu'er shen, the chinese god of love and sex between men; said to have been a man named hu tianbao, he was caught peeping on the imperial inspector he'd fallen for through a bathroom wall -- forced to confess his affection, only to be beaten to death. a month later, he appeared in the dreams of a man from his hometown as a young hare, claiming that since his crime was one of love -- and thus, an unjust death -- the officials of the underworld had appointed him as god and safe-guarder of homosexual affairs. "rabbit" is actually chinese slang for gay people, although i'm unsure if that came before or after this guy, lmao. he had a pretty decent cult in the fujian province, and was specifically mentioned in the qing dynasty's outlawing of homosexual sex (among other things)... and there remains a temple dedicated to him in taiwan to this day! it frequently sees gay couples looking to officiate gay marriages or make prayers. on the western side of things, rabbits are traditionally associated with fertility (ofc) -- that's why they're all over easter -- and immortality; the three hares/rabbits is an ancient symbol that appears all the way from east asia to england itself, and its origins are actually unknown (afaik), but it's thought to be a representation of infinity. when present in christian spaces, it represents the holy trinity. back over in east asia, there's also the mythical moon rabbit, said to be pounding out either the elixir of life... or rice cakes. they're very versatile little guys! :) (also, this song bangs. holy shit. definitely going on loop for the next week -- amazing work! <3)
@sapphirewolf4031
Wait, this is a VOICEBANK?? Not an actual person singing?? Holy shit that’s some good tuning
@camovoca
the art and editing in this mv is INSANELY good, everyone who worked on this did an absolutely amazing job, and all of it comes together to make something absolutely incredible I'M ALSO LIKE,, OBSESSED WITH THE THEMES BEHIND THIS SONG AND THE LYRICS. it's a very mature song and it delivers it's messages so well,, the way ur upbringing defines how ur relationships form in adulthood, how people raised with religion are taught to believe some parts of themselves are inherently dirty or unholy, and the ways those things can be reclaimed in adulthood. like u grow up being told that ur feelings are bad or dirty and rather than trying to scrub those parts of u away u embrace them in ways so they no longer hurt you. the way that the metaphor of the collar is used as an agent to bind or restrict, but it turns into something u reclaim and take control back of in the context of BDSM, where any and all activity is safe and only happens on the terms of both parties, is SO GOOD!!! I LOVE THIS SONG SOOO MUCH. VANE, YOPPY AND CRISPY ALL DID SUCH INCREDIBLE JOBS!!
@shinysinger
Hey I revised the spanish for Vane in this, so here are some translation notes for non-spanish speakers: 0:05 "Padre nuestro en el cielo, santificado-" Is the start of the prayer "Our Father Who Art in heaven, hallowed (...) 0:09 "Padre" In this context Padre is the priest of the church 0:57 "Mijito, dios te quiere, él solo quiere protegerte" means "Dear child* God loves you, He only wants to protect you" In this context mijito doesn't mean literally son like it usually does, it's just an endearing way to call someone else's children. 1:59 "Oye, wey, ¿estás allí? En el cielo tan bello" means "Hey, man, are you there? In the heaven so beautiful" Hope it helped! 💗
@MonochroMenace
Dude this video is literally stunning. I was impressed when I heard the song- but this really brought it all together. SAROS fits your style super well. This entire song sounds amazing. This is definitely my favorite from you. SYNTHV SPANISH LETS GOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@star_343-t6s
Bro the character in the song is such a diva she can't be in the church she needs to be in a fashion runway literally the most prettiest bunny on Earth
@obsi6563
[Lyrics] (because I wanted to sing and that help me) Y'know as a kid on Sunday, I'd go to church And say my daily prayers, it's such a blur Repeating: "Padre nuesto en el cielo" "Santificad—" Um, how did it go? And so the padre's talking, he's doing his thing He takes a breath, looks up, and starin' at me He says: "Holy bunnies, white as snow," "Will you promise not to ever roam?" I don't know when these feelings all began It seems the Devil and I walked hand in hand And so I'd run and run and run away Endless circles through a senseless game I would pray for an answer every night But the moon stayed silent with its damning light And so I'd run and run and run away Feigning solace through a holy fatе Now, the echoes intеrlace Repeating sacred grace to save the misbehaved A picture-perfect masquerade Embracing faded pages of tainted saints "Mijito, Dios te quiere" "El solo quiere protegere" A saying I've heard before Adorning covenants Dear God, I'm bored [Pre-Chorus] We've lost our youth to the night Left to find reason between every fracture of Light In portraits portraying our lives Can we redefine what it means to be Alive If the scripture says it's sin, then let's begin A dying wish Although our cards were dealt in blinded bliss There's hope beyond this lone abyss Leave bruises on my neck We won't regret Our staggered breaths I wanna feel your body close But there's something latching to my throat It's got me CO-CO-CO-CO—What? It's got me CO-CO-CO-CO—What? Collared Cheap wine Cheaper praise Cheap ways to fill my faith I got a hundred ways to null the pain Every day the same Still trying to pray Like, "Oye, wey, testas alli?" "En el cielo tan bello," Find it hard to believe Hey, did you run and run and run To shun the only one That could have saved us from Humanity's sun? We've lost our youth to the night Left to find reason between every fracture of Light In portraits portraying our lives Can we redefine what it means to be Alive Life Isn't up to a God Our components are sonnets They're up to us to write Our memories live on through each line Can we redefine what it means if the— Scripture says it's sin, then let's begin A dying wish Although our cards were dealt in blinded bliss There's hope beyond this lone abyss Leave bruises on my neck We won't regret Our staggered breaths I wanna feel your body close But there's something latching to my throat I wanna worship you all night I wanna feel your gentle bite And if the world wants us to burn We'll join the stars and watch it turn I could throw it all away Repeat the prayers I used to pray But if I hid behind this broken bliss I'll never know what lies within Those markings on my neck I don't regret the nights we spent I wanna feel your body close But there's something latching to my throat The scripture says it's sin, then let's begin This sinner's wish Although our cards were dealt in binded bliss Let's recreate the serpent's kiss Leave bruises on my neck I won't repent My knees are bent I wanna hold your body close Just wrap your hands around my throat They had me CO-CO-CO-CO—What? But now I'm CO-CO-CO-CO—What? Pull on my CO-CO-CO-CO—What? Collar
