The Kinks - State of Confusion (HD) 🇬🇧

Подробнее о видео

"State of Confusion" is a song written by Ray Davies and first released by The Kinks as the title track of their 1983 album State of Confusion. Although it was not released as a single in the United States, it reached #26 on Billboard's Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart.

The video depicts Ray Davies facing sources of frustration both at home and in the recording studio. Some of the sources of frustration in the video are different than those depicted in the song lyrics, such as difficulty using a computer and a razor at home, and difficulties with cue cards and a guitar strap in the studio. The video does not depict the girlfriend who moves out, but does show Davies struggling to cross the street. The video ends on a more triumphant note than the song lyrics: after Davies emerges from his dressing room for a performance, he leaps on stage with legs outstretched and the video ends with a freeze frame at the top of the leap. The energetic ending suggests transcending the earlier frustrations, perhaps as a result of the creative act of artistic performance.
