  • go fuck ur mother, this shit id fer fun and ur dumb......

  • Who gives a damn about what this song is" exactly" about, it's beautiful. It's sad but uplifting at the same time, maybe the songwriter doesn't want you to know everything, maybe it's none of your fuckin business, the finer details of his life. Enjoy it and make what you make of it yourself. Stop being little youtube opinionated bitches. How long till this debate ends with someone talking about Hitler. ENJOY THE SONG!

  • is that the old I V iv VI chord progression I hear in this song? Always a good foundation for a pop melody.

  • @Astrochronic It's actually I V IV V.

  • I am definitely missing the dearly bereft. Thanks, E for making a difficult part of my life easier. The entire Electro-Shock Blues album is absolutely incredible.

  • if you really want to know more about Mark/E read his book, I have always wanted to know more about him, and the book is so honest, just as you expect it to be before you start reading. Its my favourite book, I've read it many times.

  • This was my favourite song when I was a kid. Watching this video really takes me back :)

  • I cannot replay this song enough times.

  • I want a carrot clone

  • they always have such playful tunes

  • I can't believe how much I love this song, so melodically and harmonically simple, but so well musically executed that it seems it could appeal to anybody.

  • this will allways be my fav eels song. this, and trouble with dreams

  • i didn't know harry potter was a musician

  • COOL BAND...... dare to be different......

  • 8 people have a different taste of music and I respect that :)

  • If "Big Bang Theory" would be a music band...

  • Good old Eels,so geeky and lifelike at the same time.Love them:-)

  • Seven people are too shallow to realize the real message behind this song.

  • it makes me feel good!

  • i like this guy's voice its relaxing.. and this song is so easy going.. i love it :x

  • @Fluffiewins, if you have not read E's book, "Things the Grandchildren Should Know" you must. It will make you appreciate him that much more.

  • @kander63 Been looking on ways how to get it, thanks for the though :)

  • this song is really helping me cope with my grandmother's passing. glad a friend of mien showed me this band

  • Though I never spoke a word to him, I see E as a really good friend of mine, it's just extraordinary how he can make people relate to his songs.

  • very tender

  • love the eels videos but it tells me none of your videos a avalable on mobile.?

  • No way!!!!!! A talking carrot!!!!!! I want one of those.... I can talk about my feelings and it would always agree with me!!!!!!! If it dosent. then i will eat him....yum

  • Everyone who listens to this song, please rate the top comment about his sister killing herself , down. You will find out by reading the comments that jacobsellen85 is a juggaloser. I do not in any way want one of my favorite songs tainted by those two retards who call themselves artists.

  • @Redrobottyler hey ima juggalo and i love eels and my heart goes out to him so dont judge them all

  • @Redrobottyler That's a bit fucked to judge him just because of that, especially if all he was saying was that his sister committed suicide.

  • oh, i didnt knew that Eels was a Louis Theroux from behind of that beard

  • @protefer

    that gave me a bit of a snigger....

  • canzone semplicemente stupenda beautifull

  • No song is more steampunk than this

  • E saying "what?" to a corrot talking with a lisp.. that is so great :D

  • Rebecca black has more views than this song. What the FUCK!?

  • Thumbs up if you're a kid from the 90's!

  • @thepugliellikid Are you a time traveler?

  • I really love this song. I don't know why.

  • 0:50... That part is just genious... Oh, and the other 3:39 minutes too. :DDD

  • If you read his book, he talked about this. Its about his neighbor seeing dead people. Love that book.

  • Nah he's right. I don't enjoy seeing half-naked girls if they are interfering with something great like eels. If you have to have nudity, it's clearly a shit song.

  • Does anybody know who is the director of this video? And are all Eels' videos directed by the same person?

  • Je suis francais, je comprend pas les paroles mais GG.

    Belle chancon ... J'aime ;D

  • See, the video is about creating life, when the song is about losing it.

  • I love eels. omfg. woop woop! mmfwcl!!!

  • so cute

  • I like E's old look better than his current one.

  • His outfit reminds me of Han Solo.

  • I wish I have a singing carot-buddy :(

    Awesomes song as always ! :D

  • muchos no saben que el papa de mark fue un conosido quantum mechanic no wonder que su musica es tan electrisante!!

  • Almost as good as the gorillaz

  • one of the most inventive videos ever. Eels rocks. sad about the backstory.

  • Discovered this today, this must be the 21th time I listen to it. Oh God Eels makes extremely fine music. :)

  • I love seeing him go nuts on the piano. There's a man who feels his music.

  • 2:07 epic pose.

  • @BarBeDwiRE21 witch one?

  • @Megatonaxe guy slumped on piano at a guess,

    easier to see at 2:06 :P

  • @lylejack75 mabye

  • would you take me where youre goin if youre never comin back

  • I'm on this page so much I must own at least 20% of all the views :P

  • Whoever came up with the idea for this video, is both a lunatic and genius, and i love them for it!

  • @jungleboyuk Agreed.

    

  • This is probably where the Annoying Orange got the idea from...

  • Comment removed

  • Ah!! ya se al fin de donde salio la Naranja fastidiosa. xDDDD

  • 2:06 lazy keyboard player Xd. i like how much the carrot's voice changes....

  • R.I.P. beard.

  • @Sunnrainbow This is pre-beard,don't worry.

  • poor carot :'(

  • The approval rating for this song, using the likes and dislikes, is 99.23161361142%-ish. 'Nuff said.

  • is it me or does he look like a nerdy Quinton Tarantino

  • @punisher15206 only you

  • @punisher15206 hehe

  • thumbs up if you like Eels - Last Stop: This Town

  • @sexykatie90

    get bent

  • je vous conseille grace kelly blues excellent

  • See you guys in Luxembourg!

  • Who are the seven shites who disliked this?

  • Genial and touching song, genial video

    Eels would deserve much more attention on my opinion

  • Most depressing ad ever. Thank you Tresseme

  • The best song anyone has ever written about the suicide of their sister with a singing carrot in the video.

  • This song makes me cry big man tears. Beautiful.

  • Where would I be without those two albums.... I don't know.

  • Love the fact they remain a funny band producing cool music:)) Thx for sharing, mate! Brilliant, as always!

  • This song kind of hits me a little bit, almost brings tears to my eyes when I really think about it. "you're dead but the world keeps spinnin', take a spin through the world you left." I've lost a few friends, young, late teens, early 20's, they died way before their time. Both in motorcycle accidents. I know this is about his sister, but it stlil reminds me of them. They were fun people, I want to remember them as that.

  • 1. this is a weird video 2. who plays the turntables on this song ? cause there is no credits for it on the album.

    i'm assuming its one of the dust brothers maybe?

    and 4. i would love for them to put out a children's record cause their music is already half-way there sort of.

  • 1:36 - 1:38 E's sorrowful smile is actually the most emotional part of the video i think. when you consider what the song is about .

  • I found out this song while watching an instructional video on how to fix a vaporizer lol, cool huh

  • Magnifique !

  • THANK you for leaving this nice song out here on the great .com

  • this video really only has about 95k different views, 200,000ish are mine.

  • E is making clone mutant versions of himself that he places in weaponised transport units. E is Davros?

  • love the eels love them. see? i knew the dearly departed could fly around.

  • love the eels love them

  • So thats how the annoying orange came into being...

  • lol @ 2:06 where E is laying on the keyboard. I love E's artistic & musical talent. However it's unfortunate as to why this song was written. Best wishes E.

  • No. Im not a fecking pervert. :') Jesus look on my profile then you will see. :L

  • i wana make a move to a town thats right for me ... piu piu piu piu piu

  • Check out our cover ;)

  • One of the weirdest videos I've ever seen... I like it.

  • this song is about his sister who killed herself.

  • @jacobsellen85 Isn't that Elizabeth on the bathroom floor?

  • @Kayleigh55555 The album is related a lot to the death of his sister, but Elizabeth on the bathroom floor was actually when he found her in the bathroom after she ingested a bottle of pills however they got her to the hospital in time to save her

  • @jacobsellen85 Yeah! but I think the whole album was related to her death. You can hear the drenched pain throughout phenomenal song "The Medication Is Wearing Off" tae. Anyway the full album "Electro-Shock Blues" is pure genius & extremely moving :-)

  • @jacobsellen85 elizabeth on the bathroom floor is also about his sister

  • @jacobsellen85 I never knew that and I loved this song growing up when it was new. I still like it, but this just makes it a little depressing. :(

  • @jacobsellen85

    About his sister killing herself, or just about his sister?

  • @natpjohsnon killing herself

    MCL

  • @jacobsellen85

    Master of Civil Law?

  • @natpjohsnon no man it means much clown love, look up icp =]

  • @jacobsellen85

    ah fuck. goddamnit. how the fuck can you even bring yourself to the eels after that shit?

  • @natpjohsnon There's nothing i like better than hearing a complete strangers opinion. I think RHCP are awesome, you're go again.

    MCL

  • @jacobsellen85

    Really? Nothing you like better? Not even cheap dollar store soda advertised hand-in-hand with a music group for their own product placement? Not even terrible rhymes ("I fed a fish to a pelican at Frisco bay

    It tried to eat my cell phone, he ran away")? Not even two dumbasses completely baffled by magnets and why they were rated worst album of all time?

    Okay

  • Who's that on the turntables?

  • Dear Vevo,I hate you!!

  • @ChanceTyler

    It's not vevo. It's your crappy internet.

  • @EdwardCletusKasidy Lol sorry but my internet is the best!! Its vevo has everyone else agrees too....Vevo blows!!

  • Im 14 years old and Eel's is my 2nd favorite band IN THE WORLD after Smashing pumkins BUT Eel's are so close. THEY'RE IMENSE. :P

  • @Bonniepinguryan and we care that you're 14 because......you are secretly 40 and gonna rape some teens?

  • I heard Novacaine For The Soul on the radio a couple years ago. I spent half an hour looking up the lyrics because I couldn't remember the name of the song or the band. Best half hour spent of my life.

  • OMG!!! OMG!! i used to listen to this all the time like 5,6 years ago...oommggg!! this is it, this is the shit!! i completly forgot about this sonng and i just watched scrubs and i found it LOL

  • is it just me or does E vaguely resemble a young John Lennon in this video?

  • marchewa mnie rozbroiła <3

  • Most music videos have half naked girls dancing, wearing sequins. I prefer singing carrots.

  • @Nonnee794 you prefer carrots than half naked girls ? 

  • @unskeptable But just think; these carrots are totally nude...

  • @Nonnee794 idk dude i prefer this music then the kind ur talkin about...but il watch half naked girls over singing carrots any day, any mood, with anybody!!!

  • @Nonnee794

    100% agree

  • nah, half naked girls are much better. One drawback though - you need to turn off sound :)

  • I heard a slower, more acoustic version where E sounded close to tears the whole time. It was mind blowingly brilliant, but now I can't find that version to save my life. Anyone know anything about it, or was it some sort of hallucination?

  • Comment removed

  • Id like to say thank u 99.9 the buzz for playin this song.It would prob be the only way i know this song.

  • Using Chrome with AdBlock & no ads FTW!

  • I want this song played at my funeral!

  • @Evilushka i´d said that when i first hear it in 1999!

  • 1:00 amazing moment of this song.

  • 0:55 "what?" the way he says it and his face hahahah, love it

  • +1 If you remember this from On-Video Skateboard Summer 2000.

  • 90's rocked SO hard...

  • dude these faggot commercials kill me

  • How to defeat VEVO.

    1. Get Google Chrome - it's a damn good browser anyway and it's free.

    2. Search 'AdBlock Plus'

    3. Install.

    4. Laugh at there being no adverts on youtube videos.

  • @DrunkNBrawlin Or just go and live in Europe ;)

  • @thejewablehandicap I live in England...

  • @DrunkNBrawlin Thanks for the tip man! It actually works beautifully :D!!!

  • Check out our version of Last Stop this town ;)

    watch?v=SyBX-4watcw

  • Great fuckin song.Great memories....and bad ones

  • not watching a 3 minute 39 second commercial to watch a 3 minute song. absolutely not.

  • @arg13415 the ad is not actually 3 minutes its only 30 seconds

  • The mainstream touchED the EELS in the 90s but didn't stay with them since they went down their own path. More power to them for blazing their own path.

  • I want my own E-carrot! Or simply E..

  • The 4 people who disliked this clearly Like justin Beiber

  • I love *_*

  • loving how the carrot has a goatee too

  • how different does he look without a beard?

  • great song, interesting video haha.

  • 4 people didnt stop

  • super..:))) pozdrawiam

  • Check out our version of last Stop This Town ;)

    watch?v=SyBX-4watcw

  • The leader singer is my freaking hero.

  • It's a brilliant song !! (l)

  • ...the best song ever written on the subject of suicide. Sorry for your loss E.

  • AWESOME

  • Ah, to be there when they pitched the idea for this video.
