Tanggal 27 Juni 2011, rapper berusia 38 tahun yang berasal dari Detroit, Eminem, telah merilis video klip untuk single keempat dari album ketujuhnya yang berjudul Recovery, yaitu Space Bound di channel VEVO. Jadi, anda bisa menonton video klip tersebut di channel EminemVEVO di Youtube,
Sebenarnya, di iTunes, video klip tersebut sudah resmi dikeluarkan pada hari Sabtu, 24 Juni jam 5 sore WIB.
Video Space Bound ini Cuma difilmkan selama 3 hari di Los Angeles, California, dimana rapper yang terkenal dengan nama Slim Shady ini mengundang mantan bintang porno yang merupakan bintang film Hollywood, Sasha Grey. Video ini juga diarahkan oleh Joseph Kahn yang pernah mengarahkan Eminem untuk video “Without Me”, “We Made You”, dan “Love The Way You Lie.
Video ini dimulai dari pada saat Eminem berjalan di tengah hutan yang sepi dan pada saat itu, dia dijemput oleh pacarnya (diperankan Sasha Grey), dan pada saat itu, terjadi “penggandaan diri” pada Eminem, yaitu ada dua Eminem di mobil tersebut, dimana yang asli, yang duduk di depan bersifat tenang, tetapi yang palsu yang duduk di belakang, lebih bersifat paranoid, dan frustasi. Penggandaan diri Eminem di video klip itu tidak hanya terjadi di scene itu saja, juga terjadi di scene dimana Eminem dan Sasha sampai ke sebuah motel, dimana pada scene tersebut, kembali lagi Eminem di”ganda”In, Eminem asli duduk bersama Sasha Grey sedangkan Eminem palsu duduk menghadap pelayan dan nge-rap. Konflik di video seolah kembali berlanjut ketika Grey menerima sms dari seseorang tak dikenal, dan stelah itu, dia pergi ke kamar kecil, dan seketika, Eminem langsung membuka tasnya dan mengutak-atik telpon Grey. Dan, seakan mereda, ketika mereka berdua pergi ke sebuah kamar di motel tersebut, dan konflik pun mulai terjadi, ketika Eminem mendengarkan sebuah ketukan di pintu kamar tersebut, merasa bingung, Eminem pun membuka kamar tersebut, dan dia tidak melihat orang tersebut, sehingga terjadilah sebuah flashback, yang membuat Eminem marah dan mencekik leher Sasha, dan seketika, Sasha ditemukan menghilang, disinilah terjadi adegan yang paling mendebarkan, dimana Eminem pun mulai menembak lehernya dan peluru pun mulai menembus dan keluar di kepalanya, dan hal itu juga yang terjadi kepada Eminem palsu yang masih duduk di motel tersebut, dan tiba-tiba adegan itu direwind dengan sangat cepat. Dan adegan awal tadi terulang kembali, tetapi mereka pun mengemudi hingga akhir dari video tersebut.
Video ini berdurasi sekitar 4 menit 38 detik, dan fakta yang paling aneh lagi adalah, bagian chorus dari Space Bound tersebut dinyanyikan oleh penyanyi Country, Steve McEwan, dan diduga merupakan lanjutan dari Love The Way You Lie dengan konsekuensi yang mengarah kepada kematian, walaupun video ini akan disensor akibat adegan kekerasan, tapi banyak media yang juga menaynangkan adegan tanpa sensor, seperti VEVO tersebut dan sejak penayangan awal, hingga hari ini sudah ditayangkan 4 juta kali!!
INI LIRIKNYA!!!
"Space Bound"
[Verse 1:]
We touch I feel a rush
We clutch it isn't much
But it's enough to make me wonder whats in store for us
It's lust, it's torturous
You must be a sorceress 'cause you just
Did the impossible
Gained my trust don't play games it'll be dangerous
If you fuck me over
'Cause if I get burnt imma show you what it's like to hurt
'Cause I been treated like dirt before you
And love is "evol"
Spell it backwards I'll show you
Nobody knows me I'm cold
Walk down this road all alone
It's no one's fault but my own
It's the path I've chosen to go
Frozen as snow I show no emotion whatsoever so
Don't ask me why I have no love for these motherfucking hoes
Bloodsucking succubus, what the fuck is up with this?
I've tried in this department but I ain't had no luck with this
It sucks but it's exactly what I thought it would be
Like trying to start over
I got a hole in my heart, I'm some kind of emotional rollercoaster
Something I won't go on 'til you toy with my emotion, so it's over
It's like an explosion every time I hold you, I wasn't joking when I told you
you take my breathe away
You're a supernova... and I'm a
[Chorus:]
I'm a space bound rocket ship and your heart's the moon
And I'm aiming right at you
Right at you
250 thousand miles on a clear night in June
And I'm aiming right at you
Right at you
Right at you
[Verse 2:]
I do whatever it takes
When I'm with you I get the shakes
My body aches when I ain't
With you I have zero strength
There's no limit on how far I would go
No boundaries, no lengths
Why do we say that until we get that person that we thinks
Gonna be that one and then once we get 'em it's never the same?
You want them when they don't want you
Soon as they do feelings change
It's not a contest and I ain't on no conquest for no mate
I wasn't looking but I stumbled onto you must've been fate
But so much is at stake what the fuck does it take
Let's cut to the chase
But a door shuts in your face
Promise me if I cave in and break and leave myself open
That I won't be making a mistake
[Chorus]
[Verse 3:]
So after a year and 6 months it's no longer me that you want
But I love you so much it hurts
Never mistreated you once
I poured my heart out to you
Let down my guard swear to god
I'll blow my brains in your lap
Lay here and die in your arms
Drop to my knees and I'm pleading
I'm trying to stop you from leaving
You won't even listen so fuck it
I'm trying to stop you from breathing
I put both hands on your throat
I sit on top of you squeezing
'Til I snap you neck like a Popsicle stick
Ain't no possible reason I could think of to let you walk up out this house
And let you live
Tears stream down both of my cheeks
Then I let you just go and just give
And before I put that gun to my temple
I told you this
And I would've done anything for you
To show you how much I adored you
But it's over now
It's too late to save our love
Just promise me you'll think of me every time you look up in the sky and see a star 'cause imma
[Chorus:]
I'm a space bound rocket ship and your heart's the moon
And I'm aiming right at you
Right at you
250 thousand miles on a clear night in June
And I'm so lost without you
Without you
Without you
