it's not any kind of groundbreaking or secret analysis to say the Daylight MV might be about Harry's public persona being performative, about him playing the clown on a public stage for us, but it being the theme of 4 of his last 6 videos... I mean. it's kind of a lot! I want to say "we get it Harry! what we're seeing is a performance!" but of course a lot of people DON'T get it; I feel like it's the central Harry Styles dilemma, the conflict between his need for privacy and to keep some things just for himself and his yearning also to be seen for who he is and understood. But then again! Maybe it's not about telling us- maybe it's just that that is so overwhelmingly the reality and day to day of his life that it is the main thing he has to express in his art, what comes out over and over when he sits down to consider what he has to share...
