Jüri Pootsmann - Magus melanhoolia

2020 | Students film, Music video | Director: Romet Esko, Raul Esko

Music video by Jüri Pootsmann performing Magus Melanhoolia.

“Magus melanhoolia” is about a mixture of feelings regarding a social situation and letting go of melancholy. In the lyrics, Jüri seems to be considering forgiving someone for their past mistakes and sobering up, eventually “saying no”. The verses speak of drunken mistakes and show a feeling of uncertainty, with a dash of bipolarity, but in the chorus the singer seems to be very certain on the position he takes. “No, I’m saying no. There’s more of these kinds of mornings. I’ll wait for tomorrow”, Jüri sings.
