This video makes me so happy, as do all your videos mate. Side note (I don’t wanna be a grammar or pronunciation nazi but it’s only because I live in Berlin) the song is named after the world famous techno club here in Berlin and is pronounced Berg-hyne. It’s a mixture of two neighbourhoods because of its location - Prenzlauer Berg and Friedrichshain. Anyway, keep going mate. Have a lovely week.

So, the lyrics that she sings in German say "I keep many things in my heart, that's why my heart is so heavy". The video starts with her going into her apartment and finding a destroyed locket embedded into her shoe, which so happens to be made out of a rosary. After prying the locket that's stepped on, she analyzes it. Al throughout the video she tries to recover the heart locket for it to be in good shape, that's why she leaves her apartment to go to a jeweler, who is evaluating the locket while she's almost sort of "dying" because of the heartbreak (hence, why she has an EKG on a doctor's office. She's narrating the heartbreak that she suffered from her toxic relationship with Rauw Alejandro whom she was engaged to and then later got cheated on. She's trying to go about her day, but like you said, she cannot shake off her worries that are tormenting her mind (represented by the orchestra that follows her everywhere). She's trying to regain the locket's former glory, trying to grasp at the last remnants of her "love" because she can't live without it. After the jeweler does a face that sort of tells her "nothing possible to do", that's how she decides to go back into her apartment, and the scene that appears with the animals is a side by side picture of Snow White with the animals. Her action of feeding the fox (which is the only animal that doesn't show up in the Snow White scene) is a metaphor to how she "fed" or "tended" to her previous fiancé (Rauw Alejandro's branding and his nickname is related to the fox). The other reason as to why she used animals in the video is because Berghain as you saw is an extremely enclosed and exclusive club in Berlin, no phones allowed. However they did a documentary on a day where they released and recorded wild animals inside of the club. After "talking" or having an interaction with Bjork who is represented through a red cardinal who tells her "The only way to save ourselves is through divine intervention". Her representation through this Red Robin or the Red Cardinal is very correct because Bjork has vouched for animal rights, has spoken against contamination and pollution specially in Iceland which's nature is so rich. They have another song, this time it's a Bjork song and Rosalía is the one featured on it called "Oral" which at the beginning on the video makes a statement towards the bad ecological practices of some type of fishing and other activities which harm the environment. In that video both Bjork and Rosalía appear with AI edited faces in some actor's bodies who do martial arts agains each other, but as the video progresses, they start working together and helping each other, you should check it out. After the interaction with Bjork, the voice of the male rapper which says "I'll f&/# you till you love me" resonates, but she's already trascended the situation, the locket that's on her bedside table all of a sudden transforms back into it's natural state and it's not chipped or dented anymore, and her, free from all the suffering from her heart becomes as free as a dove. I am missing some details but that's mainly the narrative of the video. A lot of symbolism from catholic references is shown throughout as to how she coped with the heartbreak and finding that higher meaning to her life.

I joined your channel because of Gaga, but seeing Rosalía here makes me so happy. She's my second favorite. She's pure gold. I hope to see more of her reactions soon.

In the video for "La Perla" she appears through a bunch of sports or disciplines such as fencing and hockey because she says in the lyrics "Olympic Medallist for the biggest Mothaf&$#" and she also speaks about how he has "the podium for the biggest disappointment". The dogs are a representation of her two famous ex's (Rauw Alejandro and C Tangana) who are both singers and coincidentally both appeared on two magazine spreads with those types of dogs in the exact colors which Rosalía uses in the video. Her relationship with the dogs changes throughout the video, first being in control of them and afterwards almost getting attacked by them. When she appears with the car, the metal panty that she's wearing is a chastity belt, because she's said that she has been celibate-ish after breaking up with Rauw and throughout this album cycle and stuff. As the song itself, the video is a very big "diss-track" to her past lovers. It's a very simple video but her she's so whimsical and a total dork.
