I love this song , but in all seriousness I want to hear these guys do a serious version of the rainbow connection by Kermit the frog, they would to the song justice musically and and have the same vocal tones the song requires. The song would be taken more seriously as its a good piece of music and the lyrics are meaningful.
Such an awesome clip that cost next to no $. Basically just cameras and a few costumes for hire. And just think Britneys clips cost $100 000 sometimes. This is Fantastic!
@rodjuve An Aussie national radio station, you can listen online if your not in Australia.
The ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation), Triple J is a division of the ABC and is government funded, it is intended to appeal to listeners between 18 - 30.
The station places a heavy emphasis on Australian music and new music, and generally plays more alternative music than commercial stations.
@777rafanadal Personally I hate when something goes mainstream because I find it just happens to become devalued as unappreciative little girls and boys/trendwhores/etc. rattle off names of singles and claim that, unjustifiably, I might add, this band is now one of their faves. They mediafire the album and put four songs on their ipod sans album art. I'm happy for the artist, but it's frustrating. I mean compare this video's views to that of Rabbit Song. Both are amazing. One is mainstreamer :(
@777rafanadal That being said, as long as there's substance and its not some stupid annoying fucking album where everything is sampled (flo rida) or where the artist rhymes "kodak" with "kodak" (pitbull)
OF COURSE I'd listen to it without a problem! These guys are beautiful. So is Coldplay. Both are on my ipod. Flo rida and Pitbull aren't (and they can go to hell).
@the26thhour I'm not a "mainstream drone" nor do I consider myself "alternative" . Great music is great music, it should be enjoyed by anyone that wants to listen.....
Get over it dude, who gives a shit who likes what - it's music enjoy. Worst thing about Triple J fans, they turn their backs on bands as soon as they have aria wins on commercial airplay. Really.. who cares. If you spent less time complaining about commercial radio maybe you could all have some extra spare time!
@Watcher55661 i'm not gonna turn my back on them when they go mainstream, i never turned my back on birds of tokyo, gotye or kimbra, and that's an awful stereotype to put in triple j fans
@Watcher55661 haha you douche bag. us triple j fans are fans of music. not commercial crap. Yes i realise some triple j bands end up on commercial radio. that doesn't mean i have turned my back on them. in fact, i will be voting for one of their songs in the hottest 100. so if you actually believe that we do, then you are insanely stupid. not all triple j fans are hipsters.
@MrSlythmonger Don't get me wrong, I'm over the moon for them, but now 12 yr old girls like them, I walked past some year 6s a couple days ago and they were like: OMG BOY AND BEAR ARE HOT!!! AND SOOO AMAZING!!! and I knew them before they got famous and now everyone's like: OMG! I ONCE FLIPPED OFF MY SHITTY COMMERCIAL RADIO STATION TO TRIPLE J BY MISTAKE AND I HEARD BOY AND BEAR BEFORE THEY WERE FAMOUS!!! I'M SPECIAL!!!
@TheEchelonFTW I know where you're coming from, I've known and loved them since about 2010ish ,and now so many more people are like 'Omg I heart boy&bear' and I'm not even trying to get all hipster about it since I do think music should be shared, and its great for them to get recognition but it just feels like I had this a best friend who knew exactly what to say and now they are getting more popular and forgetting me :/ kind of a weird analogy, but its true haha!
@TheEchelonFTW Dude, Aria's are the biggest Triple J fest ever! Look who won this year - Gotye / Boy & Bear.. guess you'll turn your back on em now hey ;-) true fans at Triple J
they sound kinda like coldplay's first album combined with josh pyke or some other folky thing. love the harmonies and love an actual musical australian band :D
@eatupfatkid I started singing "Proud to be an American" but "Proud to be an Australian" in my head as I read this. Don't know why, as I'm not Australian, but it would be a fun parody...
Truely magnificent........... great to see a no-name act work hard and achieve the accolades they have recently won! Certainly the best act in Oz today! Lets hope Commercial Radio doesnt ruin them!!
some wussy c r a p gen y band like this can win 5 arias and yet doc neeson, the singer on probably the greatest album to come out of australia is living in a hostel....is this how it works nowadays?
