[...] I tend to imagine the end of a relationship before anything has really begun. [...] I'm a rather misunderstood writer: people think I'm railing against others, but all the hate is actually directed at me. "

Held captive in an aquarium, they are thrown into a tank full of sharks while bloodthirsty children look on. But the sharks don't seem to be attracted to the three men... So the children turn back to the piranhas. As the video ends, we will never know the fate of Steve, Stefan and Brian.

The video was shot at The Sea Life London Aquarium (formerly London Aquarium). The filming took 7 hours.

๐Ÿ—จ️ Well it's kind of... it's sort of somebody ranting at me basically, it's sort of like an ex kind of telling me I'm crap at relationships really which is what all the mental masturbation's about in that song. But it has a total, total pop edge to it, it's kind of got that punk pop thing that 'Nancy Boy' had

๐Ÿ—จ️ You Don’t Care About Us’ is directed towards me, written from the point of view of someone who I used to be in a relationship with. There’s a line in it which says, ‘You’re in the wrong place/ You’re in the back page’ which is often what I used to do - I used to imagine the end of these things just as they were starting. When you do that you’re fucked from day one basically, but that’s often the way I used to conduct my relationships. I think I’m quite a misunderstood songwriter - all the bile and vitriol and wickedness people believe is directed by me towards other people, but they’re often directed from other people towards me and I’m being extremely self critical.“

๐Ÿ—จ️ Definitely. That is the way Brian writes his lyrics sometimes. Like the song "You Don't Care About Us". That is taken from the point of view of somebody talking to Brian. As opposed to him talking to somebody else, actually somebody is asking him, 'This relationship is going wrong. You don't care about us, man.' (laughs) But other people translate it like the kids are going to the adults, 'You don't care about us!' It's weird. They are all coming from all different angles. "My Sweet Prince" was a female friend of Brian's who just they were just kind of busting up and that was the last thing she wrote on his mirror in his bathroom before they split up. It is all real, but it can be from any direction really.
