So why does Laura follow him? Because she has no self-control. While the masked man stalks Laura in the club, we see a bunch of masks behind him indicating that MK handlers are also MK slaves themselves with multiple personas.Īccording to a recent poll*, 100% of women would NOT follow a man wearing a mask (*not a real poll). In psychology, the “self” is defined as follows: The line “you take my self” is very significant, especially in the context of mind control. You take my self, you take my self controlīefore the morning comes, the story’s told The chorus of the song sums up the situation: It is mainly about Laura Branigan losing her will, her power and her very self at the hand of a faceless being. The Night is Her WorldĪn advanced interpretation isn’t necessary to understand that Self Control is not simply about “nightlife”. In short, it is a shameless celebration of the occult elite’s mind control agenda during an era when only a few people even knew these things existed. If you’ve read other articles on this site, you will probably find the symbolism easy to recognize, and even blatant.
However, contrarily to The Exorcist, the most disturbing elements of Self Control are not in your face but are instead implied through symbolism. When hiring a director who is famous for terrorizing an entire generation with the story of a demon-possessed girl, a certain level of creepiness is expected. It was also the first video to be directed by Oscar-winning director William Friedkin, the director of The Exorcist. When the video was released in 1984, the music industry was beginning to adopt the music video as a promotional tool and Self Control was rather groundbreaking in its scope. Combined with the MK symbolism peppered through the video, Self Control becomes a tribute to the occult elite, a promotion of its symbolism and a celebration of their most sadistic practice: Monarch mind control (if you’ve never heard of this, please read this article before continuing). The singer is stalked by a masked man, who eventually ends up shirtless in her bedroom. The video of Self Control adds a significant layer to the song, one that is rather troubling.
