Jane Bordeaux, a band based in Tel Aviv, has launched a Hebrew language music video for “Ma’agalim”, using a rotating penny arcade entertainment machine to explore the concept of cycles. A wooden doll, stuck in place and time, is overtaken by every-day life scenarios. Finally the clockwork behind the scenes comes to a breaking point, sending the doll and all the characters into a new dimension.
- From the Inspiration RoomLife certainly does seem like a matter of just going in circles day after day, especially as you get older. This delightful animation also has a deeper more melancholy message. The lyrics are translated, below...
Lyrics
Translated from Hebrew
Nights turns into days
Days turn into years
And inside them I am going
Fast and in circles
Winds are blowing at me
Blowing down my neck
Everything seems too far
Oversizing me
It’s not me that’s progressing
It’s just the time that’s moving on
It’s just another passing train
It’s a further tightening rope
Sunrises sinking fast
Seasons passing more
And I am the same
while the time is cutting short
