Hey guys, welcome to 'Soul in Tune'. If you're new, my name is Sophie and I run this
channel. This channel serves as a platform to discuss music that exists to
help people, and you know bands and artists who put music out there for others.
So yeah, if that's something that interests you consider subscribing. I
post every Friday. With that out of the way let's get into today's video, which
is dedicated to the song "Magnolia", by Gang of Youths. "Magnolia" written by David Le'aupepe
Le'aupepe is the fifth song of Gang of Youth's first album "The Positions". Released in
2015, "Magnolia" has since accumulated over
13.5 million Spotify streams. It's a dark tale of Dave's suicide
attempt and substance abuse intertwined with an effervescent and pure
recognition of hope. This song means a great deal to me so I really want to do
it justice. I'll firstly explore some of the lyrics; essentially try to elicit as
great of an interpretation as possible based off my understanding and research.
Following that, I'll discuss my own interpretation of "Magnolia". Finally,
discuss the songs illustration of mental health and how valuable Dave's
summation of suicide genuinely is. I'll leave links to Magnolia below so if you
wanted to give it a listen definitely do first. But yeah, let's get into the lyrics.
These first lyrics establish Dave's suicide attempt. Having consumed bottles of
whiskey, Dave wanders across a major highway. Overconfident, he's past the
point of caring whether he lives or dies. "If my body's alive, then my soul's
unaware". When you're experiencing depression and suicidal thoughts
your body is almost on autopilot. You're basically just surviving. You're consumed
by so many negative thoughts that taking care of your physical self is no longer
a priority or even an option really. It's almost like you feel dead. Thus, being
unaware that your body is alive.
The notion of "terrible wine" may actually refer to its quality. But he could also
be alluding to the effect that the wine had on his life in that it was terrible
because it was a source of such pain and suffering for him. Saying that he's "savoured
the last and kissed it goodbye" is his way of accepting his death. He takes comfort in
kissing it goodbye. "There's no kind of right way to do what
I'll do". Nobody who tries to kill themselves actually wants to die. It's
something that you feel compelled to do; There is no other option. It's hard
because you feel like a burden, but you don't want to inflict pain upon others.
So in saying that "there's no kind of right way to do what I'll do", I feel like
it's almost an apology to his loved ones
Alcohol often leads to overconfidence, so I think h ere Dave feels very
indestructible. And in combination with suicidality, this combines to an almost
lethal kind of 'fuck you life, I'm done, my mind's made up' sort of mentality. And the
third of June was the day that this incident occurred.
Everyone has a rational and irrational side to themselves. When you're suffering
from depression, you know deep down that thoughts of self-harm and death are not
rational. But because you're ill, it's really hard to overcome them. Obviously
his (Dave's) irrational behaviour would have contributed to the police presence that
was involved, and he would have known that his behaviour was irrational. And not
really relevant, but these lyrics were the first ones that actually alerted me
to this song being about suicide based off of my own attempt.
I love these lyrics with all my heart. Despite the thoughts of pain that Dave
describes, "Magnolia" screams hope. And this permeates as almost an anthem through
the chorus, serving as a really powerful reminder not to give up on yourself. What
these lyrics convey is Dave's decision to live. You know, he no longer allowed
himself to die because death offered him nothing. And the strength in "there's no
way" reinforces this juxtaposition of mind from a loss of hope to a belief in
life. And the repetition of these lyrics throughout the song serves to
reinforce his need to live. "Show me the way, oh, show me the light". Here, I
feel like dave is alluding to religion or God, which are significant themes in
his life. It feels like he's saying 'okay God, I'm giving myself to you but you
need to guide me through this, you know, you need to show me how to get better,
show me how to be happy'.
Again, alcohol and addiction played a major role in Dave's ill health. But there's
this feeling of acceptance, and a sense of hope in moving past it.
The beginning of verse two re-establishes the scene of Dave's suicide
attempt, and further illustrates his ambivalence towards life. It also serves
as an acknowledgement of his alcohol-induced arrogance.
He's almost mocking the situation entirely, but in a way that kind of
implies that people are going to miss him when he's gone. "Just show me the
right things that I didn't do, oh, enlighten me now with impossible love from the
former you". I read that these lyrics may refer to Dave's longing for an
explanation from his ex-wife on the breakdown of their marriage. He was still
in love with her former self, but she was no longer the person that he'd married.
And he doesn't know where he went wrong or what happened to the person
that he loved. And that seems to tie in well with the sort of arrogance of the
earlier line, "and shaking ass 'til they kiss it goodbye".
Dave doesn't want to his death to result in oblivion within his circle of
friends and family. He wants people to know that he died for his relationship.
But when he says "and in haste", he doesn't want this to seem calculated or
manipulative. Rather, it comes from the heart; a wanting to give people closure in
knowing that he died of heartbreak.
What I learned through research is that these
lyrics actually borrowed from Vladimir Nobokov's novel "Lolita", which I actually
own but have not read. But Dave takes these words out of context to
sarcastically illustrate how he feels about his ex-wife.
Here, I feel the Dave is trying to illuminate his isolation and
disconnection from humanity. However, the tone of these lyrics almost illustrate
an exhilarating juxtaposition, whereby despite being "vastly outnumbered", and
despite life continually throwing shit at you, you're going to overcome this and
things will get better. It's a very powerful line to end on.
"Magnolia" embodies an empowerment of self; a need to overcome pain and suffering
to simply and purely live. And it too demands reflection, enacting a personal
truth within you. It is a song that pieces my soul and reflects much of my
own suicide attempt. But not in a way that hurts me. Rather, it
serves as a powerful reminder of how far I've come.
"Magnolia's" reach is simply a testament to its beauty in realness, being a
catalyst for the band's career and a credit to where they are today. Dave
utilises the first and second verses to eloquently explore the event, his
voice supported by his bandmates. The melody of keyboard, guitar and cymbals
supplement Dave's vulnerability in a way that forces you to stop and listen with
intent. In the pre-chorus, Donnie cultivates a sense of urgency as he transitions
from light taps to great blows on the cymbal, climaxing with an introduction to
the drums that leaves you holding on in suspense. And finally, an aggression of
drums, keyboard and guitar unite in the course to strengthen Dave's profound
antipode. "Magnolia" is not a story that demands your sympathy. It is a
proclamation of life. It requires you to move and dance and feel and live, and
that's how Dave triumphs in his discussion of suicide. To explore such
weighted topics with light is incredibly skilful, and I think he's hyper aware
that his story has become an anthem for the human condition. And not just in a
life-or-death, existential sense. It can be manipulated to reflect anyone's
lows really, and be the spark that guides them towards light. "Magnolia" is a
celebration of self empowerment born in overcoming the hurt, something that's
honestly probably better understood during live performances. I have a video
of their live performance of "Magnolia" from Laneway in Melbourne which you can
see here. So "Magnolia" is my favourite song from my favourite band. It never fails to
leave me smiling ear-to-ear, proud of myself and my own progress and infected
with Dave's enthusiasm for life. But I'd love to hear your own thoughts about the song
and whether or not you agree with my interpretation. So let
me know in the comments down below. As in all my videos I will leave links to
places that you can contact if you're struggling or need some extra support.
But I hope you all are well. Please remember that you are loved, and I will
see you in my next video.

FINISHING THE BETA - Update 7/8 - Duration: 4:38.
- Mommy! Mommy?
Hello friends!
Welcome to the 7th video update of Little Misfortune!
Its me, Natalia.
Time flies and we are getting really close
to finishing the beta of Little Misfortune.
This week was mainly about polishing and animations.
Or as we call it, "Gott och Blandat"
Harald managed this week
to get Little Misfortune working on mobile!
And he added touch controls!
He also spent some time
implementing some fun animations of Misfortune.
Essi has been drawing like a wizard!
There were many details in the game at sketch level
so she got to draw them properly.
She's getting lots of NPCs drawn
so I can animate them later.
And even though Photoshop has been crashing
a lot lately for her
she's delivering right on spot!
Anton has been improving gameplay code
and implementing animations.
Now Misfortune can pet a doggy!
Elsa has been drawing more missing assets
for Little Misfortune this week.
As she also takes the time
to help us with the social media
and to make these weekly videos.
- On the other side, feet that way.
- That one in this hand.
Isak has been busy with
the overall list making.
He has been polishing and adding missing
graphics to the game.
Johannes is still making the mixing and mastering
of the Original Soundtrack for Little Misfortune.
He's already on track 30 out of 40!
And I have been into animation.
I animated a fish and a dog this week.
I'm also drawing animation assets for the fox,
and animating them as I go.
We also got to work this week
together with Isak and Henry
to record some missing lines for the game.
There were only a few Misfortune lines
that were missing though
so it took us about two hours to complete.
- You can begin!
- A little bit less whispering.
- Okay.
- Mommy?
- That's good. I liked the first part.
- The kitten.
- This is my son.
This is Baloo Martinsson.
I remember the days we were recording in Stockholm.
It was hard work and fun times
where the script seemed never ending
but after two weeks of everyday work,
it was done!
- I'm a little lady, Misfortune, that's who I am.
- There!
- No. Try again.
You can check a video we made about
the voice recording a while back,
in the link below.
- Mm. Okay, okay.
- That's kind of...
Now it's only a few more strings to tune in,
and we will have a game ready for you!
That's all for this week's news!
Thank you for being around!
Youtubas with us and click on things
so you can follow us on the social medias!
See you next week!
Peace and love out happy!
Love you! Bye bye!
- Let's see what this one says!

XXL-Aquarium - Das Kleben der Scheiben (#2) - Duration: 10:50.
good morning here is thorben of amazonasbecken.eu
we're just before eight and I'm waiting looking forward to the aquarium maker the
right behind me this fat aquarium to build up. Say yes, it will be
even two aquariums. below 3.90 meters times 90cm and sixties height and then
about it with an aluminum frame what to be built up at a later date
comes a four meter long one meter deep and 60-centimeter high aquarium
so be there today, if these Aquariums are built
the aluminum frame with a footprint of four meters by a meter
I have prepared so far, that is the lower rod and the
upper rod and the connectors then I've got it up here in the workshop
It is 16x 90 cm it is up here then I can unfortunately stay in a garage here
and I finish assembling myself, because I just can not get through the door
That's why I got it also for this aluminum frame
decided because then only this first aquarium can be built then
I introduce this preparatory aluminum parts take the basin, clapper
Everything together, that I have this finished and then
put it over and I can do that next aquarium on this
build aluminum frame otherwise here again. see here
you already have the silkscreen plates I have prepared
Now one thinks: what should be prepared? the aquarium farmer needs to glue
always survived an inch and that I have with my other aquarium
already done so. I think that's ugly if later the plate is one centimeter
survives. I just screw, here in the case it was such a latte: 14x14 mm
I just screw it completely on the front at the side too. then the aquarium
be built up rationally. if that aquarium is finished then it will be easy
this strip unscrewed again. Of course, the other plate has that too
Here I want to go again quickly show like a hole in the glass
is bored. With a lot of water and a core drill
after pre-drilling from one side then it will be from the other side
precisely aligned and also counter-drilled so that the discs are not on the side
splintering and zack you have the hole already finished in it
the rear window is simply on site foiled because when transporting it to
probably that is any come in the film in
after the lower aquarium already glued, the alu is scaffold
imposed. that's why I have one too Aluggestell taken, because I have this Alugestell
not here as a whole in the room would have gotten into it with 96 cm
height and 1 meter deep.
I have that here before aquarium first
plugged together.
In any case, now for the upper aquarium was already the
three-piece base glass on it posed
Here I cut it out, the wood for the overflow. the overflow is then used
for that the two tanks of Connecting the water cycle
can Next, the three-part
bottom plate easy with each other bonded. strive with the help of this
you can see that pretty well here and furthermore, there is still striving
which are glued all around where the adhered vertical slices
be, so that the surface is larger to those who stick.
After that, the rear window will be accurate aligned and glued with silicone
at the side windows is the first applied silicone and then the two
side windows just like that pressed against and aligned so
you already have the right angle with you the rear window and the floor slices
stand
Finally, there is the windscreen simply been glued against
I have to say what is simply called: We are talking about 19 mm glass here
upper tank is used the four meter long has that and with
3.90 meters, which is less has deep, so 10 cm less deep.
That has only 15 mm glass. You can see, here are still corners and edges that are not yet beautiful
Of course, that's the first time now just so glued together and in
Around two weeks, the aquariumbuilder comes again
then such silicone residues are first clean away
of course, there is still the struts here with pure, it will be mittelstreben
set over so that everything becomes stable. Furthermore
Of course, in the corner, the overflow shaft mounted and further plan
I'm down here on the right down -sorry, I meant left of course
and on the right side and above also on the right side one right
to install large biofilter being the be about 20 centimeters high
are supposed to be submucible. especially for me with stingrays, but certainly
Some Pleco-lovers will now think of it: so human
not so bad shelter for the animals where they can retire
really a lot of swimming space is that actually a pretty good idea. then
So to install a biofilter that you can swim under it. here one
Pull glass in, here high and then this will be several chambers
divided furthermore, what is down here on the page
is still coming in is also like that again a DIY fleecefilter, like me
who have ever built. that can her here on the top right now again
see in the link. look at this where I am at what is there together
tinkered. is a very good thing, therefore this fleecefilter is in
find this place again and come on this page
The top of overflow shaft fed will and also from the bottom
tank that water there converges to mechanical filtering
otherwise, because one is here now ask again like that with the
Underbody looks down: everything is below on M16 threaded rods on the
bottom plate because here after Floor heating had to go past
then I have here a 60 x 60 mm steel frame of 5 mm thick, so it is really solid
on it stands this alugestell with a total of 16 supports with 30 x 30 mm,
2 mm stronger. Here should be a support around 400 kilos carry around 16 props
I come to 6.4 tons! that holds for this 2400 liter tank
easy up here. what you get up here see again: have a small side hole
made, here and here below too. Here I will again additional
attach an emergency overflow before changing the water or what you do
you forget to turn off the water and then, before something spills over,
maybe still behind the tank here on the floor, it will be
everything in the overflow into one run extra tank. oh, and to
construction of course: the substructure I link now
Also on the top right I have namely in the last video ever
described in more detail. how i do it all worked on how I did that.
So, who cares, switch here like to come in again
otherwise I may today again Thank you very much for the audience
As you can see, there is still a lot of work to be done on the aquarium. So subscribe to me
maybe it's about two weeks if this basic model
first cured from the aquarium, then it goes on with the
bracing and installation of filters and so on. comes later
also piping, as I mount the pumps and and so on. So leave a subscription
there, follow this exciting project! bye for now. Bye, it's good!

4885하면 생각나는 그 곳! / 영화 추격자 (2008, 한국) 촬영지 여행 - Duration: 2:01.
This time, the filming location is the neighborhood that I thought 4885 was from the movie The Chaser.
This is an alley in Buk-Ahyun-dong.
The location of the detailed location is near 22na-gil, Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, Republic of Korea near Ewha Womans University dormitory.
In movies, this is the main location for most of The Chaser.
At the beginning of the movie,
The scene where Um Joong Ho and Ji Young-min first meet (Hey, 4885?),
Shot the chasing scenes of Um Joong Ho who chased Ji Young-min.
It was a very desolate and peaceful neighborhood, such as during the day when it was raining.
And it was not wide enough to make me think that I chose it because of the narrow road.
Actually, it was not in the original scenario but there was an anecdote that the actor Ha Jung-woo fell down and picked it with the OK cut.
Actually, it was like the three intersections where Jang Jung-ho and Ji Young-min encountered a car accident for the first time.
There are many things that I can not remember when I go to a shooting location and I am afraid I can not change a lot of scenes.
However, this place has many places that are very similar to the movie.

Better battery life on your BMPCC4k after firmware update? NOT REALLY (Case 02) - Duration: 6:04.
you must have read the news a bucket fork a new firm or they claim it
improves the battery life does it mm-hmm will also make my coffee and I do know
it is dangerous so you showed me how to do this upgrade and I'm not buying a
magic bill that says I'll grow an inch down there you detective run the test to
check how long we can record before we'd run out of battery let us see if they
fix that I'll be ready for them if they don't deliver I'll be digging their own
graves in early February 2019 black magic released a new version of the
pocket 4k firmware the version 65 one is supposed to fix a lot of problem
including the battery life so we will show you how to perform the upgrade of
this firmware from a Mac OS device and what are the actual benefits how we're
gonna run the test with three different batteries the first one is the LPE 6
from Blackmagic shipped with the camera the second one is a generic brand power
extra something you can get on Amazon finally the last one is the original
canon LP e 6 1865 million per hour 14 what hour let me show you the different
steps for this firmware upgrade I'm sure it'll be fascinating it starts on the
Blackmagic website but Blackmagic comm is probably not what you are looking for
unless you are into growing things so make sure you type Blackmagic Design
come in your favorite web browser click on support' scroll down to the latest
download section and select the Mac OS option you can ignore the content of
this page and directly click on download only save the zip file on your local
Drive
double-click it will extract dmg file double-click again not complicated write
in more or less 20 seconds it offers you four options select the install cameras
6.1 package now you know the drill next next agree continue etcetera it's
possible to ask you the right to harvest your kidney or given your firstborn son
hey you want to sell bread right so don't hesitate and always click agree
this part of installation takes a bit more than three minutes you still with
me ok once completed open the application
folder and launch the Blackmagic camera setup the camera must be fully charged
or even better directly connected to the power supply before moving to the next
step to verify the current software version 5.2 we are now ready to proceed
now you use an USB cable to connect the camera to the laptop instantly the app
detects your pocket 4k click on update noun and then select update the camera
screen turns dark which means you have data started here again is pretty fast
more or less 2 minutes and the camera returns to life
that was fascinating indeed the camera is now running version 6.1 but does it
improve the battery life for all this test we selected the exact same power
intensive configuration for instance we will recall in ProRes for two to 4k DCI
the screen brightness is set to 50% the framerate is 60 fps we are using the
camera internal microphones and we will record on the SSD until it dies let's
start with a power extra in version 5.2 it will be called 32 minutes and 11
seconds before running out of juice
second test with the Blackmagic Design original battery in version 5.2 we push
it up to 18 minutes and 26 seconds now we repeat the same test after the
firmware update to 6.1 the power extra runs 34 minutes and 49 seconds this time
and the bmd battery will last 19 minutes and 2 seconds now we can compare the
result 4 to 8 percent more after yep great just was a record the official
canon battery in sync that one that's better than the BMD but less than the
torrid struck with 29 minutes and 20 seconds well I'm really not looking
forward to breaking the news to my customer
so before heading to the office I have a quick one for the road or maybe - oh
gosh I knew it they call it an improvement they can't
be serious it's not enough it is far from enough I told you and yes detective
I am aware they improved the media country level and so did they with the
audio latency and you know how I can be so sure you tested it successfully the
mic on your time okay it's better than before but is this the level of
improvement I was expecting for an intensive use of the camera
no by fart makes no coffee and didn't gain me an inch and I hate it
may I have this
you
