Robin Thicke public plea to his estranged wife in "Get Her Back"

Posted by Kevin Z. Rong Wednesday, June 25, 2014

Robin Thicke released a truly depressing video about his breakup with his estranged wife, actress Paula Patton, from whom he became separated in February. The R&B singer looks like he's in a lot of pain, battered, bloodied and bruised, inside and out, physically and emotionally, in the newly released video for his current love ballad, "Get Her Back," much of the reaction was to the imagery of the clip, which suggests a violent fight between the couple, over Thicke's plea for a reconciliation. The "Blurred Lines" singer met Patton when he was just 14 and they became high school sweethearts.
This heartfelt pleading ballad, "Get Her Back", the lead single from his upcoming seventh album, "Paula," due out next week, appears to be a plea and making his strongest appeal yet to reconcile with his estranged wife, as we find Thicke trying to convince Patton to forgive him for not showing more appreciation for her and his desire to get back with her. Lyrically, the protagonist expresses regret and sadness over his part in a failed relationship and and how he is willing to reconcile and make amends with his lover: "I should've kissed you longer/ I should've held you stronger/ All I wanna do is make it right/ I gotta get her, go get her back."
Thicke needs a hug. Interspersed throughout the highly personal clip, directed by three-time Grammy Award-winner Jonas Ã…kerlund, are graphics in the form and shows a series of uncomfortably personal text messages seemingly exchanged between the 37-year-old singer and his wife of eight years. "I kept trying to warn you you were pushing me too far..." the text messages read at the beginning of the video. Other texts shown include "You drink too much" and "You embarrassed me."
In the mostly black-and-white video, a shirtless and disheveled singer croons his love-lost plea directly and sensually into the camera, plaintively singing such lyrics as "I gotta treat her right, I gotta cherish her for life," while the clip often cuts away to a sultry brunette woman who resembles Patton, but barely shares any scenes with Thicke as he grasps his wedding ring while singing "I gotta get her back, get her back, get her back." Thicke appears with a black eye and bloody nose, which could be a metaphorical symbol of his broken heart. The video ends with a text message promising, "This is just the beginning."
