"Hi guys, I'm Steve. ”

"I'm Connor. ”

"Welcome to our YouTube channel, this issue we want to react is a new MV of a band from China, recommended by our good friend Bob, he is a professional bass player, in March has released his own single, called "believe?me", interested friends can download and listen, very good. “

"Okay, this band called Black Hole is from China, and in the previous video, I reacted to the video of their first appearance at Woodstock. And the other day they performed on the home court of the Rockets, it was very exciting. This time the video is a music video for them, and like the song in that video, it's from their new album called "Rock or Bust". ”

Steve laughs and says, "I really like this band, even though they are a Chinese band, but to be honest, I think they write better English songs than many American bands." ”

"Hey, Steve, you're going to be offended by saying that!" Connor playfully raised his hands.

"Come on! Keep it real?" said Steve, sitting side-to-side in a computer chair with his legs crossed, "I love the kind of thinking in their songs." ”

"Let's go back to the video! Let's take a look at the introduction, the director of this music video is Colon Freddie, do you remember? He is the director of the music video for Philadelphia Riptide, "When I'm Gone." ”

"Yes, Claire's "Miss U" was also filmed by him. ”

"Okay! Next, let's take a look at the MV!"

Connor clicked on the video, and a synchronized image appeared in the lower left corner of the frame, on a deserted road, the howling wind blowing the cypress rolling, blocking the front of an old convertible car.

"Cool feeling. Steve recounts his feelings: "The tone is a little dark, but it doesn't look like it was added in post-production. ”

Connor agreed: "That's right, Colon likes to shoot very much, and rarely uses green cloth for post-production. ”

"If it's a real shot, are the buildings next to the highway real? Where are there so many dilapidated, abandoned buildings? It looks like a factory ......?"

A name came to their minds at the same time, and they said it in unison: "Detroit!"

At the mention of this name, the two of them had a little more of the same feeling in their hearts.

Just like the Chinese people hear about the old industrial base in Northeast China, the feeling of watching a once glorious behemoth gradually aging and declining cannot be described in words.

And the decay of Detroit is even more complete, for Americans, Detroit is like a scar, but Connor and Steve are not Detroit natives, but wonder why Black Hole chose this location for the filming of the MV.

As the MV continues, the camera moves to the front of the hood of the sedan, where smoke is billowing as if the engine had burned out, and at the front there is a prominent metallic logo, which is a hard fist clenched forward.

"Hey, wait a minute!" Steve said with some excitement as he pressed the pause, "It reminds me of the music video for Detroit vs. Everybody." ”

"That's right!" Connor waved his fist and shouted, "Detroit!"

Then he shook his head and wondered, "But it's a hip-hop music, and Black Hole is a rock band." ”

"Yes, but Black Hole has also done rock with hip-hop elements, have you forgotten the song "In the End"?"

"Oh! yes!" Connor patted his head, "That's a really good song, it's really good." ”

"Okay, let's move on. ”

The Black Hole Band got out of the car, and Cao Wu kicked the tires in anger.

The four of them wore dark clothes and light smoky makeup, and walked forward with slow movements.

The distorted electric guitar sound sounded at the same time, casting a sense of confusion and despair over the desolate abandoned buildings on both sides of the road.

The picture gives a close-up of the footsteps of several people, then moves to the endless distance, and finally flashes back to Cao Wu's expressionless face.

“i walk a lonely road，”

"I'm walking on an empty road,"

“the only one that i have ever known，”

"It's the only path I know,"

“don't know where it goes，”

"But I don't know where it's going. ”

“but it's home to me and i walk alone。 ”

"But for me, it's my home, and I'm going to go alone. ”

……

"Wait a minute! Wait a minute!" Steve pressed pause again in excitement, he leaned closer to the camera, spreading his hands in front of the camera, "You know, we're Eminem fans, so I thought of Detroit and "Detroit?vs. Everybody" before the song even started. The song was written when the Detroit government declared bankruptcy and was sung by many of Detroit's best rappers, including Eminem and Royce da 5'9''. ”

"That fist-like logo on the car at the beginning of the MV...... I'll go back and show you...... That's right, it's this logo, and it's also featured in the music video for Detroit?vs. Everybody. ”

"So I'm sure it's a Detroit song! You might think I'm thinking I'm doing it, but listen to the lyrics! Wait a minute...... Let me take a step back from the video...... Well, listen, this is the only path I know, but I don't know where it leads. ”

"I have a friend who lives in Detroit, his parents and neighbors both work at GM, and he also joined GM after graduation, and they are both great employees who have been in the same position for many years. But when they were made redundant in the same year, their entire family collapsed. That's the only job they do, but after being laid off, they can't find the same job anymore because the same jobs are being laid off, all of Detroit. ”

"They moved out of their old house, they couldn't pay off their loans, they couldn't apply for relief, they couldn't even eat, and they couldn't even eat, and that feeling of confusion, believe me, you wouldn't want to try. ”

But even then, they didn't leave Detroit because that's where they grew up living. But in Detroit, there is no direction in life, and they can only move on in confusion. ”

Connor interjected, "Just like the name of the song, Dream Broken Avenue." ”

"Oh my God, I was just saying, Black Hole's songs aren't just music, they have their own minds, they're thinking about something, although they're Chinese, they're paying attention to social issues in the United States, and I think that's what a public figure should do, not hyping up gossip all day long, yes, I'm talking about you, Kardashian!"

"Hey, that! Didn't you just take a photo of Kim and shoot him the other day?

"Oh!**!Don't touch my computer in the future!"

"But I'm going to use it for post-production!"

"Shut up! This must be cut! Keep watching the video!"
