Can't you need me like that? I'm in love with the greatest gamer But he'll always love the game More than he loves me She craves his love and attention, but because he loves the game more, she has to let go, it's the same old trope Mad Architect of Light Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DenDenTired 1,126 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 She has never disappointed me, truly the best. So sad she wasn’t able to contribute to DOC, she would have sewed those tracks together Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanta 5,019 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 This is so f*cking beautiful. I love that Grimes taps into her nerdy side consistently and effortlessly. She's the only one who I think does it best without it becoming cringe. I cannot wait for her new album! Shimigami Eyes BETTER be on it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shimigami Eyes BETTER be on it! Honestly gaming is like part of her aesthetic and sound and it’s natural cuz it’s also something she is into in her personal life. Meanwhile all these other ppl are going the video game /anime route lately and it seems forced cough cough Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RudraCNG 15,206 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 I'm really enjoying it, can't stop playing it. Already loved the song but this makes it 100x better, she gets the Dark Souls atmosphere. She really does the best MVs nowadays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
