It was released as a promotional single in 2012 by 4AD. The song is one of Grimes' most successful releases so far and was ranked at number 38 on Australian alternative music station Triple J's 2012 Hottest 100 countdown. It was named the best song of 2012 on Pitchfork, which in 2014 also named it the best song of the decade as of August 2014.〔http://pitchfork.com/features/staff-lists/9466-the-top-200-tracks-of-2010-2014/10/〕 ==Music video== The music video was co-directed by Grimes and Emily Kai Bock,〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtH68PJIQLE〕 on a "shoe string budget". It features Grimes, in a black coat and her signature pink hair, with headphones on at a sporting match with a largely male crowd. It was shot in Montreal at Olympic Stadium and at McGill University's Molson Stadium, during a football game and a motocross rally. The video debuted on March 2, 2012 and shows Grimes amongst shirtless frat boys,〔 as well as in a men's locker room surrounded by weightlifting athletes. "Art gives me an outlet where I can be aggressive in a world where I usually can't be, and part of it was asserting this abstract female power in these male-dominated arenas—the video is somewhat about objectifying men. Not in a disrespectful way, though," Grimes explained.〔 Additionally, part of the music video took place in a convenience store. In an interview with ''Spin'', she revealed that the song is about "going into this masculine world that is associated with sexual assault, but presented as something really welcoming and nice. The song's sort of about being—I was assaulted and I had a really hard time engaging in any types of relationship with men, because I was just so terrified of men for a while." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Oblivion (Grimes song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
