OK, here's a tune with it's video that might elude analysis. But wait! What is one to think of it, the music video? For those of you who have not contemplated life from the standpoint of philosophy - especially Existentialism, Objectivism, and Realism - I'd recommend that you avoid listening to this song by Jonathan Bree, as it can be a downer. The song, You're So Cool, is from Bree's 2017 album entitled "Sleepwalking." The title of the album may hint at his reason for this song and the general feel of the album, and hence the masking of the performers, which brings forth into consciousness the thought that people just may exist in a theatre of the absurd! Oh, Matrix! Are people sleepwalking through life? You're So Cool is a statement of the inevitability of disappointment that many people will experience in life when the socio-economic system within which they live emerges a new type of peonage, thereby reducing the degree of personal fulfillment and freedom that any one person will be actually able to experience.

Here's one man's (imdeadimdeadimdead) perceptive short commentary from a website that provides the lyrics:

"The entire thing seems to be deeply rooted in economics and the prevailing economic status quo and its effects on the lives of individuals. Namely, its [the status quo's] role in shaping individualism and the roles it confers unto individualism to prop up itself. Whereby the attributes of individualism [i.e., sets of attributes available to the individual] are molded and shaped; and you, an individual, are tasked to choose from the set of options laid out before you. In effect, privilege (handed out by the rich and powerful) masquerades as Liberalism; pointed out in 'Find solace in the privilege to pursue'. It is also in effect a sharp rebuke of Postmodernism and its failure to confront the inherent moral failings of Neoliberalism and global [i.e., crony] Capitalism. In effect, this renders culture generic, captive to a cycle that aims to glorify the past while being myopic to the [i.e., possible] coming bleak future."

Regarding imdeadimdeadimdead's above commentary, I'm mostly in agreement. However, I'd like to add that "the attributes of individualism are moulded and shaped" by powerful banking, corporate, governmental, and special interest forces that operate both in the open and behind the scenes. Also, facelessness is a statement of sameness, where sameness is the outcome of a pseudo-individualism that has been shaped by those forces, i.e., no matter if there is the appearance of a different job, profession, endeavour or activity, people are not as unique or significant as they might want to or should be because they are unknowingly participating in a new form of peonage foisted upon them by the forces of crony-capitalism (i.e, a deleterious economic system that pretends to be real Capitalism, where such fakery makes use of specialized techniques of dissimulation and manipulation of economic resources and markets to gain massive societal control). Unfortunately, the lessening of the usefulness of people through the use of human-replacement artificial intelligence and robotics is more likely than not to further diminish their "raison d'etre," which could be another reason Bree decided to mask and clothe nearly identically each member of his band.

I think that Bree's ability to synthesize a pertinent and telling social commentary in music score, lyric form, and video presentation is an outstanding achievement, which should engender introspection in those people who seek to understand better the characteristics of "freedom" in relation to their society.

Oh, by the way, when you view and listen to this music video, consider that many of those people who have left negative comments have not analyzed and properly understood the meaning of Bree's musical statement; hence, they have come to a wrong conclusion or viewpoint.
