Slow Club 'Giving Up On Love' - official video

[VengeanceIsMineBitch]

i like it - hope they're not hipsters.

[DarthExarKunDouble]

@VengeanceIsMineBitch They are most definitely hipsters hahaha

[maximumtheandy]

4 layers? wow it must be cold.

[bagelbunter]

BRITISH DWIGHT!

[KittiMitties]

@bagelbunter I think you will find that Dwight is the American Gareth. But good on you for knowing him.

[huntermanders12]

GARETH!!!!

[RaRaAshley]

This is a brilliant music video.

[Knapperr]

longboarding music !!

[MizTypical]

lol, starts smoking on the ferris wheel, yep, just one of those days...

[jemimahp01]

legendary. 

[24JELizzie24]

haha it's the guy from skins that had to eat like the worlds hottest chili against thomas and then lost.

[sugarlumps73]

lol its the guy with the glass eye from pirates of carribean! Really like this really catchy.

[StupidPantsMagnet]

Love is a Ferris wheel and the kid in the cart above you ate two deep fried Twinkies, cotton candy and washed it down with a funnel cake; now he has to puke. You're fucked.

[cassielucky5]

[JenJen1994x]

omg i love slow club so much! xx

[dustinmyeyexD]

I love this band ;)

[InaWonka]

Ragetti <3 Great song.

[CDclaymations]

It's so catchy! there are certain songs that just getcha going.

[largeblackfemale]

Maybe when they filmed it he mouthed the words a lot faster than the original? xD

[karanashlee]

british artists are so creative^^

[Froggyflippers]

ITS JOHNNY. from skins :'')

[perfectjeans]

@Froggyflippers knew I'd seen him from somewhere! XD

[LittlestThings525]

Kate Nash bought me here....I'm glad she did <3

[sickofdao]

why is this available in 1080? nothing happens.

[VerucaSalt79]

All I see is Johnny White.

[elliotsfarm]

It's 'Gareth' out of the office! (Mackenzie Crook) very very cool!

[nictasticity]

sad guy is adorable. he shouldn't give up on love. i'd do him right there on the ferris wheel & share his smoke after.

[mrbilliam85]

I don't like that the guy lip syncs. That is weird.

[chazzfart]

@menowimp

you mad?

[menowimp]

I have put a "dislike" on this video because it is a dreadful video. If this were just an amateur thing put together in order to get this song onto youtube that would be fine but it is labelled as the official video and put up by moshimoshi records themselves.. I went to that gig, by the way. They did this song but not Me & You or It Doesn't Have To Be Beautiful and that rather p**sed me off too.

[ofekf]

its the guy from Skins lol

[Celestion321]

It's a nice variation, but the album version is better by far. More room to breathe compared to this one.

[goldlakemoonshine]

mackenzie crook woo-woo!!!!

[UnAx3394]

It's the guy who licks his eye in Pirates of The Caribbean ! :D

[maxthepet]

I LOVE ALL THERE SONGS! I frist found this soung wiel i was watching, like my favorite tv show, Chuck! It wasnt this soung it was Christmas tv, but still i bout the whole album! I LOVE U SLOW CLUB! (thumb up if u argy)

LOVE U!

[acdc14terrace]

I first heard this when I downloaded it FREE on itunes.....

I am so glad I found this band !

[TheFourOhFIve]

Long ago, the 405 recorded an interview with the Slow Club. Watch the interview and more on TheFourOhFive youtube channel!

[TheFistness]

Four people need a kick in the pants.

[theorangegreen]

Is it me, or does this video version sound a hell of a lot faster than the original?

[sbarr222]

@theorangegreen Yes this is the single release version - a bit more upbeat than the album version on Yeah So. Saw them last week supporting KT Tunstall and they were superb. Deserve much, much more airplay.

[mrmuddy316]

@theorangegreen I like it better

[SparklyTwinklyShiny]

@theorangegreen maybe this is the original? :)

[Wizardus86]

@theorangegreen well, show us the original, and we can find out. the other versions on youtube are definitely slower

[KimOfDrac]

Mackenzie :D <333

[phobophob]

makes me dizzy...

[djkokomo]

we play this song on KOKOMO WebRadio !

[NeathPic]

YOU ROCK SLOW CLUB ! ! !



[jennieexcell]

Love it! The song and the video. And I don't find it boring in the slightest - interesting camera angles created by the moving ferris wheel, love the pained expressions on Mackenzie's face and the mixture of bright and dull colours. Also liked the idea of relationships being a wheel going round and round and feeling so sick of it you want to get off - something I can definitely identify with!!!

[Cleverbot777]

@jennieexcell I'm just now getting turned on to slow club and I agree with you a 100% on your assessment of the song/vid. haha

[PKcarnage]

GARETH!!

[DynamicArtband]

See you on slottsfjell festival this summer!

[agressivemuffin]

I think it's a great video.... not boring in the slightest. Very original. I don't think it's meant to be a reference to his character in The Office - I think he's a lot more than just one character he plays, he's a talented actor. It's creative and fits the song well. It's downbeat, yes, but that works.

[JezzaABC]

Tuneeeeee!

btw Rebecca's brother is my History Teacher!!!

[tibetanbeefgardener]

I think I get it now. That's the actor who played Gareth from "The Office" (UK) so it's supposed to be kind of like a holy crap it's Gareth moment. I think a lot of people who didn't watch the show didn't get the joke. Either way the video's boring and that's disappointing cause Slow Club usually make really great videos.

[benjaminrichardshoop]

quality tune! heard it on lamaq's 6music show

[SunnyD2004]

Excellent video!

[butt0nup]

Definitely different from the album version. I mean, not horribly. But notably. Oh well.

[guedillepoulet]

Mackenzie Crook + awesome music = me happy!!!! <3

[maybemike123]

cheers soccer am...tune =D

[gemzee82]

Simply wow. And M.C, good choice mann.(Y)

[theamerican]

Surprised that no one recognizes this man. It's Mackenzie Crook from the Pirates of the Caribbean movie series.

[herofalls]

@theamerican More importantly from the original BBC "Office".

[keritako]

Hate this video :( no one wants to see some old guy smoking. just gross.

[Lou500]

@keritako

That "old guy" is 38 years old and basing your dislike of the video on the fact that he's smoking is lame.

[mrsjoeyful]

Love Slow Club, love Mackenzie and love this video.

To me the pace and feeling is far more evocative of my favourite Slow Club song 'There is no good way to say I'm leaving you' though.

Watching this is like watching your favourite band play live when no-one else knows who they are and therefore won't join you in the big fat dance it deserves.

[didderjade]

Haha, a whimsical but fantastically simple video. I'd forgotten how adorable Mackenzie Crook was.

[NMOD2010]

Nifty video!! I think I've just discovered some lovely music here! Oh yes, oh yes, I think I love it. :D

[lesdoit]

I helped with the backing vocals on the album so I prefer that version. Cheers Bec!!!

[QuasievilBunny]

Brilliant!

[Lou500]

It must have been cold that day; he's wearing three shirts. :o

[sarahabachi1]

whoever directed this is an absolute genius! amazing!

[thrownacrosswater]

@sarahabachi1 its lucy needs who directed it

[TamJGreen]

I prefer the album version, A LOT.

The backing tracks just not too Slow-Clubby.

Why do some of the videos have different backing tracks, the album versions are so good!

The video is cute though :)

[justinereyess]

comeback to the bay area!

[0502008]

I love this and the new version of the song x

[tzeqin]

yeahy!
