The Horrors - Count In Fives (Live)

[Agathavamp]

i just want to dance when i heard this song

[RaggaLion]

He's simply wonderful.

[IzabelMarrupho]

Ha ha ha... I love how everyone comments/focuses of the stiff crowd and don't pay attention to the band... specially when they probably know shit about the dynamics of Austin's music scene or sxsw... It ain't NYC, darlings.

[MAGN00]

the horrors = the doors 40 years later

[caca421]

can someone name a band that sounds like them???

[increiblo]

@caca421 Well, they're sort of inspired by The Birthday Party, a post-punk band from the 80's.

[JumpPunchandRUN]

i like how the singer doesnt really sing, its more of a psychotic rant, and its amazing

[jorgefuzzomendez]

Faris Rotter looks kinda like a freaked out psycho Robert Smith... Pretty original, thought

[jorgefuzzomendez]

@Purerockband yeah, The Cramps. You just said the keyword there, pal

[DennisDeeYourSavior]

i feel this sense of psychadelic punk

[c135977w]

8 ppl didn't know how to count in fives.

[p00phead14]

i'm so jealous that that crowd got to see them, especially since they all seem to not care how great of a show they are putting on!

[Ferniie19]

if i were there i with jump into faris hahaha or somethng but that crowd is a crap!

[RobDistant]

i dont see why the crowd are so still. if i were ther id be going mental. best uk band for years!!! maybe they are all just in awe...

[sitoandi]

faris rotter RULES

[Wearethesecrets]

The crowd are like.... :O

And there like rocking the stage

Silly crowd :L

[domclaudevandamme]

all the way from england to sxsw and no one appreciates that

[uzithrasha]

@domclaudevandamme sxsw isnt that big a deal, you know how many bands play there?

[Itsblitzday]

One of their best songs and the crowd doesn't move. This is why I hate most people; they don't know great music unless it is the daily crap played on the radio over and over.

[QuestionSleep95]

This video just seems funny to me because The Horrors are just fucking losing it on stage and the crowd just has NO reaction hah.

[joshvongrimmsgirl]

omg wtf is wrong with the audience ? god dont try and enjoy the music ot=r any thing .__.

[saksup1964]

@joshvongrimmsgirl I know what you mean. wel such an awsome band and the stupid audience is not doing anything!!

[agata2604]

What the fuck is wrong with the crowd?!

[ailsaizzylouisiana]

Excellent.

Don't you just love Rhys' old stage voice - kinda reminds me of a Victorian Street Entertainer/Ringmaster - classic. One of the many things I miss about their old style..

[whospatrick]

Turn the lights down Plllease!!!! haha farris is grand!

[moeshie147]

that crowd is so fucking boring... i would be jumping and stuff XD

[freakisho0]

what's up with the crowd? lolll

[ThePochas0]

stfc84 your a fag, and the crowd does suck asss they kill it all

[xDreamOfDollx]

what a crowd.___.

[HORNET22ify]

The Horrors RAWK!!!! Seriously they do tho!!! y da fuck is da crowd so GLOOMY, their at da HORRORS gig!!! they shud b goin mad!!! luv u coffin Joe!!!

[palahniukssoldier]

I love the Horrors, saw them support Placebo a few weeks ago in Manchester and the crowd was just as bad even though they were spectacular. Is it me or does this song sound like 'Klaxons - Atlantis to Interzone'?

[wivverz]

this band is a breath of fresh air.

so differant from everthing else out there at the moment.

[thepjmayhemparty]

the crowd is suck

[ConverseEmo3]

BEDHEAD! just jokin lol

I fucking love the horrors but i agree the crowd is square :(

[kieranmcleod16]

the crowd pisses me off on this video.

[jdhooverful]

maybe the crowd is so fucking astonished by the fuckinfantastic music of the horrors.

especially this song.

[gonzaloplus44]

FUCKING AMAZING!!!

[popmachine12]

i wanna shoot the crowd

[stfc84]

americans don't get it

[caz33]

@popmachine12 wouldnt mind shooting the band........=]

[UnkleYureTZzz]

ilikeit

[CooperS46]

what did they smoke?

[heid138]

that crowd is square as fuck.

[recklessroad86]

haha, the intro sounds like a distorted violin og somethin :D joshua makes the freakiest sound on that fender :D genious at that point ..!

[TheCandyManwithCandy]

Rhys is wearing a cape :D

[arturoelectronic]

te amo

[mariovinicius20]

It also reminds me a lot of the Moving Sidewalks' "99th floor" riff.

[zeightygeisty]

just saw these guys at reading, neeed somee albuuuumsss !!!

[rastawarrior60]

he's off his head on acid:D

still good though

[burplec]

THE HORRORS RULE

[guasona16]

The Horrors Lo Mejorr!!

(L)(L)(L)(L)(L)(L)(L)

[alfredoferrua14]

the singer seems to be a spoiled kid while singing :)

[TheSynthetic]

the horrors ftw *-*

[thomasloyens]

fantastic!!

[Freddydaslay]

Ehhn UK power

[bigbrotheriswathing]

can anyone tell me what synth are using????

[ruimaiaarchive]

i was there. i think it's a vox organ...or a hammond. don't remember.

[phiastardust]

i'm pretty sure it's a vox continental. and why was this thumbed down? :(

[backonthejuice]

pnnews, shut the fuck up with your cyclic drivel.

"Talent imitates, but genius steals. - T.S. Elliott"

Enough said.

[pnnews90]

get fucked, enough said

[ScruffyMagic]

Oh my goodness it doesn't matter. You like the Horrors, he obviously doesn't. The Horrors are fun to listen to, as is the old music that they are allegedly ripping off.

No one respects difference in tastes anymore. Everyone just needs to chill and enjoy fun music.

[MKlucy93]

they're all too out of their faces on crack to move probly :)

[fnnichols]

about as scary as Count Chocula

[xchjj]

this song is fucking ausome but wtf is wrong with the crowed it's like watching someone playing screemo to your gran

[hollielees92]

The crowd are having a whale of a time...

[twilightzonegarage]

other versions? This song is a ripoff of we the people- my brother the man, these lame fucks didn't even give them any credit.

[HenchMerlyn]

what are they supposed to do announce that this isnt their song every time they play it? no.

the horrors do this song awsomely.

[katieforster]

this song isn't a rip off, it's because when faris was younger he could only ever understand stuff when it was in groupings of fives, and everything he did had to be arranged like this or he couldnt understand it. like an obsessive compulsive thing. dont try and take the crediit for stuff you didn't do.

[pnnews90]

this song musically IS a ripoff of we the people my brother the man, sorry you're the ones who are clueless if you don't realize that.

Fuck the horrors and listen to some real music.

[katieforster]

why do you care so much about we the people? one rythm sounds the same, woop-de-fucking-doo.

Stop preaching and get a life. We're gonna listen to what we want, so don't try and dictate what we should/shouldn't listen to.

[pnnews90]

I'm not dictating to anyone what to listen to- be my guest if you want watered down pretend rock n roll. The reason you only listen to this probably is because it's trendy and modern anyway, fuck the past and everything that this band wishes they could be.

If anyone even mentions this song is a direct ripoff you get all offended and take it personally, it's just a fact, get over it.

And it's not one rhythm it's the whole song, get a clue, I'm out.

[katieforster]

Yeahhhh really. If I wanted to be "trendy" I would be wearing Aberrombie and Fitch and Jack Wills and Ralph Lauren like every other kid at my school. I listen to music beause I like it.

Listen to what you want to listen to and we'll listen to what we want to listen to. I listened to the We The People song and yes, it is one rythm. If My Brother The Man was the same it would be called Count In Fives, not My Brother The Man, alright? We're not slagging of the music you like, don't do it to us.

[pnnews90]

the whole song is based on what you call "one rhythm" since you can't even make out one lyric besides five anyway. It's pretty much pointless he even sings. The arguement here is about as valid as when Vanilla Ice said Ice Ice Baby wasn't a ripoff of Queen Under Pressure. It's just lame, the horrors could've of just covered my brother the man like the fuzztones and had some decency but doing this is just lame. I can see why they would do it- surely you weren't even aware of we the people..

[pnnews90]

...and that's what they want. They even nicked their album title from a song by the attack but I wouldn't expect anything less from these kings of originality. That's what sets them apart from garage revival bands who acknowledge and respect the past and these fools who just want to turn in a profit.

[pnnews90]

90 percent will agree because they have no idea who we the people are. Obviously wrong? I think all you have to do is read these comments and you'll see who's wrong.

[katieforster]

Quite honestly, I don't see why you're bothering to argue with me. We've both made our points, so why do you keep coming back at me? I keep on saying, don't slag off our music and we won't slag off yours, but no, you continue to slag off the horrors. Just forget about it alright? It's not such a big deal. There's no need to be so overprotective about We The People. It's just another band.

[callumacallum]

While I love the horrors i've got to say that it's extremely unlikely that they would have the same guitar part, keyboard part, vocal melody aswell as the little 'hey' bit by coincidence, therefore pnnews90 isn't "obviously wrong". He should however give it a fucking rest and stop coming back to this video to tell everyone he doesn't like it. Need to get laid much?

[katieforster]

Spider Webb: "The album version is exactly the same as the one we released as our third single."

Faris Badwan: "The lyrics are about me counting things in fives when I was a child Id always step on paving slabs in groups of five."

Coffin Joe: "It also shares a riff with My Brother The Man by (1960s Florida garage band) We The People. But its one of those timeless basic garage riffs, like Louie Louie or something."

Taken from an article on Skiddle

[allyoop1993]

they certainly DID give them credit!! it's written on both the album and single that this was originally by we the people - plus joe acknowledged this very openly in an interview. faris used his own lyrics for it that's all, doesn't mean they stole the song or anything. do some research before you pretend you know what you're talking about.

[LibertinesGirl]

lol wat the fuck is wrong with the crowd??

[OtakuGuy]

Jesus fucking christ american crowds are tough. to me it doesn't even look like their enjoying the music.

[mtrickett1]

this is awesome

can't wait for their return =D

[actionweekend]

es cierto han hecho control x control v con my brother the man de we the people, los hay que si saben rentabilizar el garage 60´s

[thesabrinascaresyou]

wooooo, how can the crowed just stand there calmly???!!!!

twats.

the horrors are amazing, i wouldnt be able to restrain my excitement :D

[Rakomvsraku]

Американская публика зажралась, 2-3 руки увидела только, стоят как вкопанные

[abelitho23]

ii lOOOvee thee hOOrrOOrrs!!* : D

[twilightzonegarage]

this song is a ripoff of my brother the man by we the people, what a bunch of fucking clowns

[borntohula94]

beginning sounds like all tomorrows parties. haha

[rorymorris1]

[LucasMalageux]

Not all Americans are ignorant, just most of us unfortunately. I love this band, and if I hear of them in the U.S. again, I'd like to go see.

[Charlespirate]

Americans suck, just look at them standing there, stupid gits.

[mifaigirarelepalle]

yeah guys,you're right,,,nobody knows the horrors,just some people appreciate they're music

[boulalax3]

The crowd is dull because most Americans do not know the greatness of The Horrors.

[JakeIsOnTheInternet]

I'm an American (unfortuantely) but I must agree, that most of us just don't get it. I love these guys regardless though

[azrael666ethereal]

You guys should get it though... USA invented garage rock in a way.. Iggy Pop?????? The Horrors are great....

[Charlespirate]

[doodle555578]

What's up with that crowd? Haha, I know almost EVERYBODY has commented on them...but I've never seen a concert that dead. I mean . . . damn.

Cheers,

Carriah

[friggingbomb88]

i love draw japan

[IamUnderOath77]

haha wow everyone is right that is a terrible crowd! haha those people don't look like they came to see The Horrors. I can't tell from the back but it looks like a bunch of 40 year old men watching them live like bald and crew cuts haha. the crowd suckkks, The Horrors rock

[MyChEmLuVoR]

is he realy going out with peaches??:(

[booshxbiatch]

Yes, unfortunately..

but whatever floats your boat i guess..

haha

[carrotdog27]

no, peaches is married.

faris and her split around a month ago

[MyChEmLuVoR]

Ok good :)

He so Goergous

[Robot1296]

I hate that crowd. The Horrors wasted their time performing for them, the ungrateful bastards. I would have been moshing and dancing and singing!

They are frozen. They don't move at all. It's like their dead, and The Horrors were playing at their funeral.

xx

[p3st0lino]

Americans are either to bored or to cool to dance. I've seen so many concerts of different bands, where the crowd was sometimes even sitting around chairs.

I mean the only concerts in europe or GB, where you would sit around are classic concerts. But I guess every culture is different in that way.

[natalieisgreat]

I know its so annoying like here in the UK we would all be moshing and dancing around but not there

the horrors rock.

[S8Dark]

where the horrors playing at a funeral, because the crowd made it seem like one

[MetallicDonuts]

why arent the fucking people jumping and screaming!

[CharrIsTheDynamite]

That crowd is DEAD.

They ruined it. Jump

about a bit guys! British

crowds FTW. I love The

Horrors. (L) This is well

my fave song.

[xmcrxownsx]

That crowd was pretty lame. xD

[Bamngbola]

the crowd ruined this.... absolutely no energy

[poolampoo]

n_n

[Porcupunk]

Whatever Faris is on.. i want some. ^^

He looks so fetching in that netting.

LOVE The Horrors (:

Their awesome music was wasted on that crowd ¬¬

I want Joshuas hair..

[YoYoYoYoYoShun]

[212brianf]

sweet band..

[Johnem0]

i can play this song on guitar

[booshieftw]

They're not fucking emo?

Their influences are from a time period where emo didn't even fucking exist.

And as for their hair and shit, if they wanna dress like that, good for them. They can pull it off and the music's more important than the fashion anyway.

[AlbertTransom]

The Birthday Party's shitty younger brother.

[Scarlettbear]

^^ He's so spazzy!

[perladeath]

emo0o0  liveeeeeeeeee

[AyahuaskaPop]

THE HORRORS is NOT your fucking and bored emo bands, OK?.They r REAL Rock n Roll BAND!.

[sevensinsinparadise]

whatever they are they have no musical talent whatsoever which is a shame really

[kokiri987]

fuck off

[TQTQTQ22]

i look forward to there new album...but i spoke to Von Grimm a few weeks ago at as bar. he said there barely recording atm...! lame:(...but still they are sick live x

[hello1932443]

what's he smell like :]

[singingchicken]

SEEING THEM IN AUGUST

[glitterbugox]

The Horrors are my victims xD. They're all such great people and even if you're not a fan of their music you can't help but like them as people.

[andreajolie]

i die to see them live!!!

[Joelwhynot]

I fucking love this band. But my god they must be tedious to play after a while.

[MakeshiftGirls]

They have such a great sound, I wish I could see them live! ^^

[RasputinaMan]

you really should. it's a life changing experience...hopefully you'll get a show where faris will run into the crowd doing something assinine or he'll bring something to the show like....i don't know. inflatable monkeys.

[SuspiciousChickens]

aww i love faris! he really gets into singing it live!

[xstarscreamxed]

Lol, the curtain thing

is there a reason they're all wearing red bracelets??

oh && i wish Josh was singleeeee. - also wish i'd ever meet him too =S

[boulalax3]

probably just to get in.
