Sparkadia - Talking Like I'm Falling Down Stairs (official HD)

[calgreen1971]

You can sing Snow Patrol's "it's so clear, you are all that I have" note for note, word for word to this, but I still love it!! :)

[alphameo]

Love this song. Play it every day. Only thing I can't enjoy other Sparkadia songs as much as I always go back to this one.

[stumbles62]

Mary, break like China..and now this. Amazing.

[indixx1]

Fab song...........cant stop listening

[WizFizz]

Channeling Bowie. Very cool!

[leonrandy]

Just watched them live at the tivoli tonight soo amazing!!

[SplinterCell37]

1080p really changes the sound! This song is a classic as far as I'm concerned!

[smellyphishymonster]

I LOVE IT!!!!!!

[TheBassChen]

I was so high when I watched this and it was just such a wiggy experience, trippin me out big time man. Haha Alex's face kept changing to different people's faces like Robbie Williams.

[SuperMunky92]

subdued personality?

[1BustedMyth]

I have my first serious man crush!

[TheSillySloth]

Do the companies on Youtube think we will buy their product after annoying the fuck out of us?

PS Freakin love this song

[1BustedMyth]

Its about getting yourself all worked up, thinking of how to impress a girl when you speak to her for the first time, then totaly falling to pieces with nerves in the moment.

(I asked Alex after the show)

[ojbrophy]

best song ever totes

[dcmushi]

advertisement at the start of videos should be illegal. so annoying.

[Firstriver333]

KINDA reminds me of Depeche Mode.

Love it.

[TheMavrakis]

What a cool song?!...This band has such a bright future, if they continue to be as honest and bold as they are here!

[rickbenger]

whoa, is that a young Johnny Cash?? .... MISPERCEPTION

[OhWowAshDoesThings]

This song is amazing. I can't help myself, it's just so good.

[Acrodream]

His voice is so precise.

[Metropolitification]

He seems to be experiencing lag

[todddragon]

Kick ass. Gets better with every listen. Bring on the album.

T.

[Pedroswicked]

so looking forward to their gig in adelaide in a couple of months time!!! Yoo guys rock!!!

[tristanalbury]

wheres the girl?

[gavwah]

"Oh You don't mean no nothing at all to me." Oh wait, sorry, that's the Nelly Furtado song that this untalented moron completely ripped off. Learn to write your own songs, dumbarse.

[nerebeht]

@gavwah

Since when was that line a part of these lyrics? He says 'when whatever I say means nothing at all... I walk through all the steps in my head...'

Learn to read, dumbarse.

[gavwah]

@nerebeht I'm pretty sure you are the one who needs to learn to read. When did I say that those were a part of these lyrics???

[Cuplatradeez]

@gavwah are you alright??

[gavwah]

@Cuplatradeez I'm fine, how are you?

[pwdrthashiz]

@gavwah it's also a melody in a snow patrol song. but it's catchy and i personally thing sparkadia do the best rendition of this melody

[gavwah]

@mgt83 I love how you have terrible taste in music. Actually, I wasn't talking about chords in the slightest. Notice how I wrote lyrics? They are usually associated with melody. But thanks for taking the vague semblance of an argument and persevering. Nice user name, BTW. I guess you wanted MGMT, but that was taken a few hottest 100s ago, so you settles for MGT, but then those pesky 83 other people already had that one taken! Blast! You can't win, eh?

[mgt83]

@gavwah haha damn I guess the fact that my initals are mgt and the year I was born was 1983 makes your attempt to make my user name a copy of a band kind...of well... a joke. sort of like you.. lol terrible taste in music....please tell me what my taste in mucisc is hahahaha I so would love to know how much you know about me after one comment....and I will use the same name for you again.....douche.

[gavwah]

@mgt83 Why else would you defend such atrociousness if you don't support it? As for the user name, i hope you can see given the context how irresistible it was to jump to that conclusion. All I'm arguing for is credit where credit is due. I don't see that happening here.

[mgt83]

@gavwah lol well I juat came upon this agrument....but im going to hazard a guess that they were not trying to copy Nelly. Regardless of how catchy you think her song is.

[gavwah]

@mgt83 I don't think it's THAT catchy. But when there's so much originality in the world getting brushed over by the media choosing to support such derivative 'music' solely due to some misplaced patriotic idea that Australia is somehow more significant than other countries... WTH. I want so badly for this band to spend the rest of their days working at a convenience store. UNLESS they can prove to me that they are capable of something original and noteworthy.

[mgt83]

@gavwah lol but seriously i guess my biggest question is.....why does it bother you so much? I mean, this is a comical look at things, but this does show how much cross over there is in the music... on youtube search for "Axis of Awesome - 4 Four Chord Song (with song titles) " so many clasics, so many frauds.....according to you...

[gavwah]

@mgt83 Mate, I appreciate that you just came to grips with the tyrant of a concept - chords in music - but nothing I have said so far has been in reference to chords, only the melody. I heard that 4 chords song about 2 years ago. If you like punk music, you'll find that same chord progression in ~50% of punk songs, just shifted into different keys. But hey, it made Good Charlotte and Blink 182 household names.

[Cuplatradeez]

@gavwah you're a fucking mess cunt

[emmexted]

Awesome!!

[illusions23]

what did i just watch

[trishmos]

Fantastic song & thought provoking video to accompany!

[SuperJmacca]

seems like two people actually fell down stairs

[JemaKnight]

I feel like pointing out how it's incredibly difficult to plagiarize 4-5 songs at once.

[SuperJmacca]

god know how this guy feels sometimes.

[0xMusicManiacx0]

How does this only have 36, 250 views...? o-o

[Wenchmatic]

The camera work is f*cking awesome in this clip.

[bigswano]

is sparkadia a one man project now?

[MaybeImaGhost]

such an amazing video for such an amazing song! Love Sparkadia!

[jasminejailbreak]

It's a shame that they didn't have the other band members in the video clip, they are all babes!

[rracnevets]

I think it's an excellent track! Video is simple and watchable. Great work. :-)

[Justinlalor1]

such an amazing video and song!

[TheSean619]

this song is so awesome i love this song

[TheGemkins]

different from all of those generic pop songs out there, it's a great change.

[nathan341443]

"it's so clear now that your are all that I have"

I love this song but it sounds so much like Snow patrol. Just spoils it a bit for me......

Try it out and you'll see what I mean...... Hope I don't ruin it for to many peeps

[julianbarclay89]

@nathan341443 i know hey. everytime i hear this i think of snow patrol. it shucks.

[MrBeerboy182]

@nathan341443 once it has been heard it can not be unheard!!

[nathan341443]

@MrBeerboy182 sorry! must still admit to really digging this though

[timzp]

Good Aussie music

[Izzyzak]

really love this song

[MaybeImaGhost]

Such an amazing song :)

[HEKTIC458]

This song is so cool. It's really memorable because it's sooo different

[ThePoocheese]

this rubbish is great , ive listened to it over 100 times awesome

[joandpete3]

What about number 1 in jjj's hottest 100!!!! If ya luv it, vote 4 it!! I'm gunna!

[nickw2517]

@joandpete3 Agreed! If this doesn't make #1 then I'll lose faith in mankind. Although that already happened when Sex on Fire got it :/

[joandpete3]

@nickw2517 I'm just a little concerned that Angus & Julia might take it out tho. Not that that's a bad thing. What do u reckon?

[nickw2517]

@joandpete3 Angus sounds like a small peasant child busking on the street. But good luck to them. Hope Sparkadia gets it though :)

[danlittle3]

Fcuk yeaaaaaahh!

I LOVE IT!

no wonder why triple J plays it.

[danlittle3]

Fcuk yeaaaaaahh!

I LOVE IT!

no wonder why triple J plays it.

[Chrissiemusicdork]

This song is so familiar!!! I've listened to it so many times yet i cant sus it out...

I love this song now. If i'm in a bad mood i listen to this and all my stress is gone :)

<3 But seriously the fact thats its really familiar is really creepy. :/ *And the Video! like the rooms he is in it looks like my old house* I just love this song :) nuff said

[Chrissiemusicdork]

Singing like a hurricane

Dancing like Fred Astaire

Walking like a young John Wayne

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! Not to mention i think the guy is hot :D

[SplinterCell37]

This is easily one of my alltime favourite music clips!

[maz1in]

I think he's singing about not being able to speak to the ppl he loves but acts all confident

[TheBrillr]

Love this song but really struggling not to sing 'You don't mean nothing at all to me' in that chorus

[iserbeller]

@TheBrillr AGREED!

[kwaxkwax]

great song. Not to sure about the video =\

[baz3201]

what a song

[Leonii101]

Oh my gosh what an amazing song! There's something so retro and haunting about it!

The video clip must have taken aaages to shoot lol

<3

[ieatmusic1]

@hannahsheable I think it's very similar to a Nelly Furtard song to be honest, but thats what popular music is really, it's what you have already subliminally heard before. Doesn't mean it cant be still done creatively and with an individual imprint.

[hellozio]

@ieatmusic1 i heard roxy music in there too...

[hannahsheable]

what tune is the chorus from its really annoying me and i cant think what song its similar too.

[Henrah7]

Snow Patrol - You're All I Have @hannahsheable

[risingrisingrising]

@Henrah7 the band snow patrol should not be mentioned in the face of sparkadia.

[MrBeerboy182]

@hannahsheable

it was doing my head in and then i realised it was a Nelly Furtado song i heard while out

[NickMitch777]

Such a chilled out song :)

[kayladujardin97]

OMG what a koool song !! :D

[boriskazakhov]

This is such an awesome song, just really chill to listen to. :D And the video isn't too bad either. :P

[Eddyah]

Heard this on the radio and think it's tops!

Still trying to suss out what the song is about though...

[catalienatalie]

they were so good live!!

[GayGeisha]

Can't wait for that album

[reggex]

This song reminds me of the movie "Inception"

[ScientificPions]

@reggex You're waiting for this song...

SPARKCEPTION.

[thebluelolly]

Love this song so much. I love that it's the type of the song that gives you that familiar feeling for a second, where you think it must be a song from the 80s or something, because it can't possibly be brand new AND that cool. It's a familiar feeling that it brings, which I love. And he is oh so pretty too!

[NeonShadowsx]

Chorus melody is taken from "Say It Right" by Nelly Furtado

[jools3601]

@NeonShadowsx sounds similar but not the same

[NeonShadowsx]

@jools3601

I copied the first 20 notes of your riff then changed the last so it's not the same I didn't copy!

This cover version has none of the dynamics and vibrance of the original. It is flat and lifeless.

[jools3601]

@NeonShadowsx what?????????

[azukar8]

@jools3601 Don't feed the trolls, mate. It just encourages them.

[bobofaggins]

@NeonShadowsx thought the same thing

[NotQuiteEnglish]

@NeonShadowsx I doubt it was taken from it, as similar as it might sound

[fransilly13]

Great song!!! So good at Cooly hotel

[vin0002]

@fransilly13 Fark i wish i was at the cooly hotel right now!!

[caroljrobinson]
