#mitski interpretation

[planet0fluv]

Why didn’t you stop me is so deeply painful. It’s such a accurate song describing self sabotage. The best way I can think to describe is that back in 2020 I had a friend. I loved them so much, but felt as though I was just annoying to them, so I stoped being their friend. I messaged them saying I’m done being their friend and that I’m sorry,then blocked them. I felt oddly sad when they didn’t find a way to message me again, because I wanted them to stop me. I loved them,I just wanted proof they loved me. We’re now on good terms and I’ve since apologized,but often times I catch myself with a similar mindset. That’s what why didn’t you stop me is to me. :)

MIZI IN ROUND 7 MY BELOVED

She is Till's ray of hope on this round. He resigned himself to dying, he gave up practically. Choked in regret and misery, he was alone- Mizi was missing, likely dead and is dead.

The way his eyes light up ans he regains vitality. He was overwhelmed and felt truly alone, like in Rouns 6 he resigned hinself to dying. But this time, it felt like he was mentally at the brink too, because of round 5 and 6.

Seeing Mizi was like a wake up call to him- a spark and miracle. The push he needed to snap put of it.

He loves Mizi.

It may not be reciprocated, romantically, but the care is mutual.

The round is practically over though, but Till has regained his spark- the same spark that makes him able to fight aginst aliens and win for a few seconds before they put him on a leash again.

And Luka realises this.

Till is driven by emotions, and in the blink of an eye can drastically change actions and make multiple moves when motivated and charged.

This scene shows how Mizi and Till are eachothers final hopes.

This round is called Final, not for it being the end of this alien stage- not with out special guests here. But it's the end of what these 2 jad left.

Alien stage is cruel, and it presented multiple instances of false hope. It repeats again and again.

With tbe aliens believing Ivan would win, until he gave it up and in a blink was gone.

With Mizi and Sua beleiving they could tie, and the brief second they felt they did, until in a blink Mizi got 1 more point and Sua was gone.

For Hyuna, who once had both her brother and Luka one moment and seemingly the next lost it all, and by the hands of someone she trusted. Evrrything she had, gone seemingly in a blink.

Hope is fleeting in alien stage. And I feel like it's why the things in the back are also temporary means of happiness shown repeatedly- such as the shooting stars Ivan enjoys and finds peace in, and the flower crown that had its own background story in the mvs with Mizi and Till. Thsy taper off and die or pass eventually. But they're watched carefully by wide eyes.

It repeated, that joy and hope lost in the matter of seconds.

Blink, gone.

Except, Mizi and Till didn't blink. They watched, eyes wide and focused, and perhaps its thar focus and consumation of hope and emotion that doomed them to barely meet eachothers hands and escape the shot in the crowd.

There is no hope, in a cruel alien stage.

And it's ironic that as always, Till feels like he's won for a few seconds when acting against the aliens, only to lose to them a moment later. This time it's permanent.

okay very preliminary thoughts on mitski's new album BUT i think there's something with how "laurel hell" felt like a goodbye to the music industry (can't find the source but i remember reading that it was intended to be her last album under her contract) like i'm sorry anthony fantano but if you interpret the back half of "laurel hell" as being generic breakup songs you're missing like 80% of the context. to me TO ME it feels so clearly about her negotiating her relationship with fame, how she can't love her fans the way they love her, and how she feels like she sold her soul to her job, so the only thing to do is step away. but THEN "the land is inhospitable and so are we" was created after mitski decided to renegotiate her contract, specifically because she loved making music enough to deal with the negative aspects of the work. and then all the songs are about the ghost of love she can leave behind, despite the present pain or emptiness, and like. do you see it. do you see it.

WARNING: There are spoilers for INANIMATE INSANITY: The Movie beyond this point. If you don’t like spoilers, I recommend scrolling past this post.

“Where’s Suitcase?”

“She and Knife are in the final challenge! Just think…”

“…next time we see them…”

“…we’ll know who won.”

No but like what if one of them actually died to MePhoneX in the finale?

I got the words from the song The Frost by Mitski.

Shame matters so much to me, especially viewing it through a queer lens.

It's heartbreaking enough when seen as straight, but interpretating it as lesbian makes it hurt so much more. The song at its core is the singer feeling a deep shame for her relationship with her sexual partner. When taking sexuality into account and interpretating it as the singer feeling shame for specifically having sexual relationships with woman, it resonates with me as a lesbian with internalized homophobia

Actually Mitski is writing songs about Kanej from Kaz’s POV

[frogbestfriend]

I think Mitski could direct a psychological horror movie with romance undertones
