  • canada? canadians? HUEHUEHUEHUEHUE. please

  • First time I've heard this and I like

  • Same here

  • First Said the Whale song I ever heard and it's still my favourite!

  • I love this song

  • she's so pretty...

  • This book is great. Wait, movie? Game? Song? Whatever it is I love it.

  • @The007x2 seriously?

  • @tallehMA What? Honestly they should make all of that shit out of this song. Great song, can't see how it would work but it could be cool.

  • this winter i re-tire PLEASE USE WINTER TIRES PEOPLE

  • The bestis bandis evah!

    

  • How can Said the Whale do it? Every song they play is incredible <3

  • mmm this is alright but definitely nothing original

  • only true canadians can write songs about winter!

  • So...much...talent!!!

  • amazing band, great sound, very warm - come to montreal, guys!

  • Said the Whale = Nothing better. Can't wait for them to come to Bowen in May!

  • makes me want to home :(

  • However much I love winter and the snow, I also hate it because your sad after it's over then there is that week or so of slush. Also you have to shovel the drive. I think the title of this video speaks for almost all Canadians.

  • I love how I go to a lot of the places they talk about :)

    yay vancouver! btw, it rarely snows here lol.

  • Whoa whoa whoa...I am appalled at what I'm reading...hoping to find some comments about what people love about the song I see pointless, racial slurs? Disgusting. I'm 13 and I know better. Seriously. Listen to the music...this is one of my favorite songs.

  • @thiscitysamess Holy shit. A 13 year old has better grammar than 90% of us. Good on you.

  • @thiscitysamess Actually you know better BECAUSE you're 13.. people hate more the older they get, it seems. Sad.

  • You can tell they're Canadian by the number of songs they have about the cold.

  • The main female character is hot. Not many native girls are featured in media and whatnot. Bien Cuit!

  • @Buddhamonkey34 Has nothing to do with the media and everything to do with lazy-ass indians and their predisposition towards self-entitlement. No victims in this life, only volunteers. Come to vancouver and find me an indian that is not a lazy fucker and you just might prove me wrong, But I am betting you will have better odds finding me proof of the ogopogo or the sasquatch.

  • @BiggPoppaCMoney Whoa whoa whoa, calm down there John A. McDonald. I was simply saying you don't see native girls in media (of any sort) very often.

  • @BiggPoppaCMoney You should be ashamed of your racism. You need to stop being so ignorant and seek actual facts about Indians.

  • @Paintlenore Then preytell, what are the "actual facts" about indians might I ask? My father is a halfbred piecashit, which makes c money one quarter chug. Trust me, I know my family. A lot more factual than anything you might tell me from the outside looking in.

  • @BiggPoppaCMoney You really must be on crack, my friend. I am from Vancouver too. Trust me. For starters: It snows. No, not often, but we DO get snow. Especially on the mountains, which need I remind you, are in fact, in Vancouver. And as for the Indian part, that's a LIE. You're a dick if you think otherwise. Just because YOUR family acts that way, doesn't mean others do. As a matter of fact, I have Native blood in my family as well. PEOPLE are different, no matter what culture or colour.

  • Mind blown, once again.

    Never fails.

  • Love this song ! J

  • Damn you guys! I didn't know said the whale was from canada! i swear every band i adore is from canada. you guys must have something in the water. :D

  • he drew a jelly fish, tree and sun on my ipod :P

  • @Bryanne0087 He drew a mountain and sun and a house on mine :))

  • You guys are pretty much the best thing I've had the pleasure of hearing in quite awhile. Any chance of you touring to the warmer parts of NA like Florida ;D?

  • I cannot stop listening to this - i fall in love with it over and over. great beat, simple lyrics, they're super fresh and cool. love, love, love.

  • The first Said the Whale song I ever heard and liked. Many years later, it's still my favourite. :)

  • I Love said the whales!!!! <3

  • ahh, i absolutely love this video!

  • this is such a song you'd hear in a hollister store

  • STW really, REALLY, REALLY needs to do a tour in the States.

  • me three!

  • GOIN TO SEE EM ON SATURDAY!!!!!!!!!!  yay

  • me tooo!!

  • I love these guys their preforming at the Olympics in Vancouver and I heard this guy just died while practicing his sport. So sad. (:`C Aww he died for a good cause I think. I love Said the whale there music is unique and clean, I have not heard one song of they're's I want to skip. <3 Happy Valentine's Day<3 !

  • @newbie0821 What cause? He died in an accident. His death was tragic, but it's not like he died in a war or anything. ACCIDENT.

  • Someone sounds like a self rightous, world is my bitch kind of person.

  • i never listened to them because i don't like their name, dumb i know, but for whatever reason, the new bands that have sentences for names kinda suck. i am also fully aware that "said the wale" is not a full sentence.i like it though, kinda different

  • @tomwaitsfornoone1 you're kinda strange.

    Do you wanna know a really good indie band?

    "We Are Scienstist"

    XD

  • @tomwaitsfornoone1

    Als an awesome band:

    "...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead"

    :D

  • @tomwaitsfornoone1 its cool though because whenever they have a song name its like its being spoken by a whale.

  • Reminds me of winters in Winnipeg...

  • @benji1906 You know, surprisingly, it hasn't been so bad this year. I'm grateful.

  • wow what do you need to make a video like this?! its veryyy cool!

  • Have NO idea why the fuck ticketmaster as electronic music.

  • best song ever

    ...right now

    gives me chillls

  • im addicted :)

  • Love these guys :)

  • this song has a kinda cake sound too it

  • woot great song. come to montreal with Hey Ocean!!!! that would be an amazing show.

  • Dminor - A7 - Bb - F

  • Hey does anybody know the chords for this?

  • huh why they fighting? huh...pathetic

    anyways this was a weerd music video but its a good song

  • People make me laugh. :)

  • penis

  • Hey there all, Im from the States and just discovered this Vancouver treasure. How many albums does " Whale" have? Cheers!

  • Nice song. (:

  • Shit, there's a manure heap of hate out there. Scuse me, isn't this supposed to be a forum about MUSIC ? Not friggin wardrobes, Arctic housing, & other random ways to insult each other. Grow up, or find your teddy bears and crawl back into your baby cribs.  Your entertainment value is ZERO .

    Far as ' Said the Whale ', a promising group whatever their nationality., and that's how all music should be heard - as universal..

  • THANK YOU

    it's hard to completely ignore was spaxx said though. just... wow. so mature

  • Ure welcome . I agree about the spaxx comments - amounts to hate mail. Dunno why YouTube allows some of the stuff I've read. iTunes wouldn't publish it.

  • To Spaxx1001... if you think it's bad music, then why are you watching the video?

  • Because I came across this shit on accident, and as a result, I'm giving my facts on it. There is no rule that says you only have to give positive opinions on YouTube. If you don't like this then you're more than welcome to piss off, shut the fuck up and get the hell of the internet.

  • This is snazzy

  • Spaxx1001: quit trolling

    Great song, but I can't imagine it getting really cold in BC ever... I'm from SK

  • we are definitely the toughest people in canada when it comes to weather.

    either that or the most insane.

  • @Morgaganda HAHAHA. Don't make me laugh. Vancouver has amazing weather in comparison to Edmonton. Last winter, it broke the world record for the coldest city on earth, including the sub-arctic. It was about -60 Celcius. It was a complete shitstorm.

  • Accept my opinions or get the fuck off the internet. You're more than welcome to stick your fingers in your ears, close your eyes and scream "LALALALALALA" if you cannot handle a view that contradicts your own.

  • Comment removed

  • @AllFormsDance cite your resources or learn your shit, buddy. We're a fucking province built on a boreal forest biome, not the tundra.

    I'm also glad idiots like you aren't in BC.

  • @iRocKiCoke actually we're a temperate rainforest....well at least the vancouver area is. i think it's most of bc. some is boreal forest though

  • @iRocKiCoke Actually, it is going to be especially cold this year because it's a La Nina year.

    "La Nina is an extensive cooling of the central and eastern Pacific Ocean caused by the strengthening of easterly trade winds in the tropics. It can trigger generous snowfall from the interior of British Columbia to the Great Lakes region, according to Environment Canada."

    Before you go off on me, maybe you should look at the news sometime...or just look outside your window.

  • @AllFormsDance I live in vancouver. i am looking out the window. Guess what? No "La nina" like all you morons have been rambling on about. Believe half of what you see and none of what you hear. Only a complete dullard takes the weather network and uses it as a reference of the way things ARE going to be.. And a response to the two simpletons above: it does not snow in vancouver, sao your point about singing about the cold is just like you; stupid.

  • @BiggPoppaCMoney La Nina can result in hotter than normal weather or colder than normal. Depending on that you can have more rain or snow or less rain or snow that normal. During winter I noticed that we had colder weather than normal for most of winter, and it is still bellow normal now. We didn't have too much snow, but never the less we had more than normal. It also rained more than normal. Also we didn't get the brunt of it. Australia got most of it through their terrible rains. By The Way!

  • I saw these guys in Calgary with City and Color. It was a good time.

  • Said The Whale is brilliant.

  • Love this tune.

  • i think that said the whale did a good job yet again i love said the whale and this song is amazing

  • tyler bankroft is sexy,

  • it works for me. thanks!

  • OK, three snowstorms in Ontario within 4 days mid-Decemmber, just before the holidays... At least I have music like this to fall back on. Yes, this winter, I really am thingking of retiring. I will block out the ice, the skidding, the trying to get out of your driveway in favour of listening to this song.

  • You're a moron. If you knew anything about music then you would knot that music appeals to the individual, just because you dont like it doesnt mean it sucks...

  • Oh a troll, I was mistaken you for just a ignorant prick. Continue on

  • Continue on I shall : D

  • Attacking someone over their taste in music is like trying to kill the air because its cold.

    You stand there foolishly, everyone looking on while you swing you arms violently for no apparent reason.

    Now Spaxx maybe instead of just saying that Said the Whale is like a cat in the ass maybe you should have offered some sort of constructive criticism like why you don't like the music.

  • By gosh, that's an articulate argument (and I mean argument in the philosophical sense). I've tried to say the same sort of thing on other threads and have failed just because I haven't chosen the right words.

    Anyway, love the music and the lyrics. Anybody in Canada can relate to the lyrics, really. But the music is special. It has that "remember me" quality that so many of today's bands lack. Superior tastes? That is rather harsh and exposes your own tastes for comment.

  • the only correct one that you can't even back up.

  • But I did back it up, bitch boy. I did it quite well too, unfortunately for you.

  • how is that unfortunate for me?

  • it's unfortunate for you because you're black AND white, and more importantly, not asian

  • He can't leave a comment about the music because he knows nothing about it. Don't know how he found this song, really. He really knows nothing about music. Let it go. He's just an air-head.

  • this band plays and was ariganted in a summmer camp in one of the most beautiful places on earth...

    dick.

  • Real mature buddy. This coming from the same person who probably thinks Canadians live in igloos. Lemme guess, you probably think Canada is a state too. Jerk.

  • @Spaxx1001 Then why am I not in an igloo right now? Retard.

  • @triforce10155 Then why am i not obese ,oh right i"m not in America

  • @Spaxx1001 Hey, did you know that EVERY FREAKING COUNTRY hates the hell out of America? If you go down to Australia, you'll get mugged, if a Canadian does, he gets a pat on the back. I don't hate America, But a lot of the people in it are ignorant as hell. And the only Canadians who "Live" in igloos, are possibly people up in Northern Canada on Hunting trips. Idiot. Everyone loves Canada. My last words: Colour, Toque, Quebecois, Alberta Beef, Maple Syrup, AND THE TELEPHONE.

  • @ShizOwl I'd argue Scotland invented the telephone. Then again, I would be biased :)

  • Hey guys don't dare even to argue with Spaxx1001 he likes to troll on shit for a living. Got anything better to do Spaxx1001 man instead of pwning noobs on the internetz?(Who got pwned this time? :P )

  • if you dont like it just get the fuck out of here we dont want to hear your useless fucking opinions just shut the fuck up and continue to do what you like to do...

  • man your such a cunt, all music should be appreciated no matter what. you just think your sooo cool

    if you listen to such superior music id be more then happy to hear you "superior" music.

  • @Spaxx1001 Canada's a wasteland? Spoken by a true, ignorant person who has obviously never even been to Canada....

  • What kkinda music do YOU guys like?

  • this song makes me feel happy, i like it

  • They really should be on iTunes

  • siiiiick vid, pretty clever

  • Great band. Great music. What more can I say?

    :D

  • spaxx just ike its name

    SPAZZ

  • *yawn*

    Retard.

  • my lord,

    just shut up now please.

  • ohh, clever.

  • I know ^_^

  • But you have no music, really, on your channel so we can't even judge your tastes. Just a bunch of negative comments that you think are funny. They're not. People really think you're offensive. And another one bites the dust...

  • No, you're just in the way, really. And no, it's not great. You're just a bit of bother if you know what I mean? After this comment, much like other posters, I won't even think of you.You're too unintellligent to engage, really. Yeah, you go. Go away, hopefully?

  • Ah, everyone knows that the cool kids are the ones that bitch and bitch about everything, on youtube.....

    If you didn't understand, I'm being sarcastic.

  • i like it!!!

  • i saw this on some show the other day and i loved it! and then i found out they're from the vancouv just like me!! who knew! :3

  • I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!!!

    The concert at TRU was pretty much the best concert I've been too! =D

    p.s I bought you Cd. and its GREAT!

  • well, what do you listen to rap or techno, cause either way you can't really give an opinion on music when you have no sense of good music

  • your listening to it aren't you? that's an unarguable statement.

  • 0h 0k

  • THEN GTFO, thankyou. : ]

  • NO U

  • well you just a total dick arnt you why dont you take you and your lack of sense and fuck yourself

  • No.

  • One day, when u grow up. Then you will realize that this kind of music is really amusing, you know, you'll get a bit tired of metal or rap or whatever you're listening to. And your musicstyle will get softer. You fucktard.

  • This music may be amusing to some, but then again, idiots are amused by the smallest things.

    Seriously people, get some taste in music.

  • you realize your the only one right i like all kinds of music but close minded fruitcakes like yourself should stick to your backstreet boys shit

  • you do realise EVERYONE likes this music here except you? what do you listen to anyways?

  • Music that's certainly better than this tripe.

  • haha like what?

    "APRICOTS!!! BLAAAAHHHH!!!! APRICOTS!!!" oh yeah, you have great taste in music.

  • You're one seriously stupid kid.

  • You're kidding right? You benighted fool. is that all you going to say? or are you going to go look for more "bitches to PWN" haha is that your obsession? because seriously it just means that you have nothing better to do with you time. (in case you didn't quite get what i meant by that... YOU HAVE NO LIFE)

  • Telling me I "have no life" means you have no argument, and as a result, are admitting your defeat.

  • haha actually by "you have no life" i mean, you have no life.. and as in fat old man sitting at a computer searching for more people to put down. thank you and good night

  • With every response to me you continue to prove how retarded you really are.

  • ok continue attempting to insult me.. whats your point?

  • Well, Spaxx basically has nothing else to do. He has the time to view and listen to songs he doesn't like. He insists upon invading this particular thread ( I've been there) for no reason at all, according to his logic. Strange logic, indeed. You have to treat these posts for what they are. There are all sorts of types on You Tube. Keep on thinking positively and enjoy this wonderful music. This song is absolutely wonderful.

  • oh. my. god. stop arguing. thats not what these comments are for. stop trying to sound smart and either comment about the [great] song, or GTFO.

  • spaxx,you don't have to like the music, but you really should shut up and stop proving to people how retarded you really are. There's 6.7 billion people in the world if we all had the same taste it'd be a real boring place. Sit back and enjoy the beauty of it, or just be a miserable pr!ck. Either way, just shut the hell up.

  • If you're so for individuality then stop trashing peoples taste. Grow up kid.

  • so is that what you do in your space time, spaxx?

    honestly. if you want something to do, go listen to the music you like instead of trashing the music most of the people here LOVE. i bet you couldn't write lyrics better. i bet you don't even play music at all. you should try it yourself before you trash other people who put effort into their work.

  • But the music you "love" isn't good, it sucks and it's for pitchfork reading hipster morons.
