SiR Gets Punched In The Face By Karma, And A Friend, In 'You Can't Save Me'

Karma is a fist that punches you in the gut while you least expect it. If you are a good person, it's more of a belly rub that makes you feel good. You'll find $20 bucks or something while you're walking into the food market. Nevertheless if you are a bad person, it's a haymaker that takes the wind out of your stomach.


SiR's new video for "You Can't Save Me" is for this sort of karma. It's like watching a heart smash into pieces in slow motion. Then, as an alternative opposed to cleaning it up, it gets sucked into a vacuum and then set on fire.


The video kicks off in the happiness of moods. SiR's happy with his partner and introduces her to one of his companions who gives her a knowing eye. Time passes and we visualize SiR and his partner's relationship blossom into even greater moods; cuddling on the couch has never looked happier. They have a picture-perfect union that we may only ever dream of having.


Things take a turn for the worst any time SiR, his friend, and then some other pals party with some ladies and we're led to believe that Sir cheats on his girlfriend. SiR's friend then makes a move on the singer's girlfriend, and later, by means of the argument, it's revealed that SiR's girlfriend stepped out on him, also. His friend justifies it by confronting him and reminding him that he slept with another woman recently. She punches SiR and walks out with the singer's girlfriend.


Two years later, SiR is a miserable visitor at his friend and his right now ex-girlfriend's wedding. While each person is happy and excited for the newlyweds to start an everlasting journey of love with each other, SiR is down in dumps. The full situation is his fault and there's nothing that he can do about it. Later, he sings at the reception, a frowny-faced mess.


SiR revealed to Complex that the story started as a spinoff to the 1999 romantic film, The Best Man. "We wanted to take a number of feels from the film while still keeping the story as current and in today's world as possible," he mentioned. "We think it tied in properly with the song, showcasing mistakes and their implications, and illustrating how love comes in so several different shapes and sizes."


"You Can't Save Me" appears on SiR's 2019 album, Chasing Summer. In an interview with MTV News last year, SiR revealed how the project came with each other. "I began the album with six songs that I really fucked with and then built around them and thought about what they meant," he said.
