  • i hope spoon sees this

  • dude dude i love this song

  • i love this song its stuck in my head ugh i cant get it out!!!!!!!! ima summon this song cause its so good!!!! ugh that didnt make sense at all

  • daniel brou

  • Fantastic, well done!

  • I love it!!

  • Good job on the timing! That'd what really set off this vid for me.

  • Job well done!!

  • damn youtube has a glitch .... there's an unlike button for this video

  • daniel brou

  • i love it its wicked

  • the video just fits nice job its great

  • Wow. Impressive!

  • That was pretty cool. I usually don't watch the videos people make, I just want to hear the song but that I watched all the way through.

    Did you use final cut to make that?

  • daniel brou

  • daniel brou

  • what did you use to make the video?

  • daniel brou

  • hey

  • daniel brou

  • daniel brou

  • i like this song :)

  • This is pretty sweet, what software did you use?

  • While this song was surprisingly popular, I don't think anyone understands its extreme deepness. Remember when the weight of the world was just a song. Now I see law enforcement is madness. In a girl his age he sees himself as like a 6 year old. Will we make it out of the country? We always wanted to think it was a song. We knew it was comin, now I'm in prison for life, and now you see me

    of course the beauty of the song is in the connotative wording

  • it's like we never wanted to believe the weight of the world is real and now that it is we didn't prepare for it

  • Impressive

    

  • I loved this song in Veronica Mars

  • hey people i also made a music video to this song make please check it out :)

  • I saw them at ACL the other day...they did great.

  • probably one of my favourite songs ever...this song just shakes you up and then drops you :)

  • Thanks, everyone!

  • wow! great job

  • i remember the first time i saw this..in 2007..wow.

    i love this song..

  • Awesome!

  • Nice Vid, man. =)

    Really good work! Like it!

    Greets!

  • I remember this from season 6 of Scrubs- happy lil' ending. Nice song.

  • i never comment on videos and this i have to say this is really good

  • @Bazookaduff thanks! I rarely comment either. I appreciate it!

  • The lyrics say it all... "Got the weight of the world... I summon you here, my love".

  • :D I love this song

  • this is amazing!!!

  • i have a reaction: good vid

  • the signals have cough? its the signals have crossed

  • @wickkidda no it isn't, actually, it's "The signal's a cough"

  • @demonforeveryday oh is it now? tell me, what does it mean when a signal is a cough...

  • @wickkidda The lyrics state so in any published instance (if you look at the Black Cab Sessions video, and listen to it as well, both the lyrics on the description and what he says are "The signal's a cough"). How the hell should I know what it means? The lyrics are as follows: "I need a release / the signal's a cough / but that don't get me off" and I suppose that needing a release (meaning sex, considering he talks about getting off) is signaled by a cough?

  • @demonforeveryday with the black cab sessions video who is the description written by?

  • @wickkidda FYI, Spoon's official has a lyrics section, I think it came from that.

  • @wickkidda Besides, what does it matter what it means? It's clear, you can hear what he says, and "the signals have crossed" sounds pretty stupid anyways.

  • @wickkidda and even if it isn't sex he's talking about, maybe he's looking for a way out. Either way, makes more sense than "the signals have crossed."

  • 0:50 Ha I thought that was concubine for so long :P

  • anyone who is a fan of spoon. look up the band the fleeting ends - good luck and good health. it's a total rip off. bash them to no end!!! and spoon RULES!

  • i like it :)

  • This is neat. Good job.

  • great vid man!

  • Outstanding... as an educator, I can tell you that I'm impressed. Truly excellent work and really fantastic representations of the song's lyrics and meaning.

  • Fantastic effort. As a former high school teacher, I can tell you I'm impressed.

  • srcub have got the best music

  • Wow man, this awesome. I love the video. It's original and piece-meal, but it doesn't suck like most of the videos like this. Kudos, and keep up the good work. The internet needs more people who can do it like you.

  • Great job on the video, impressive and very good quality compared to most self-made music videos on youtube. Props.

  • what editing software do you use?

  • Great song.

  • Cynthia Cameros Cohen is a stalker.

    She posts as Oracle12340.

    Seek help with the Houston Police.

  • LOL

  • such a good song

  • Nice job :)

  • I think you should shut yer mouth and give the guy a break it goes ..... for a school assignment ... "school" ya retard what did u do wene u ere at schoool? ya totall plonker leave the guy alone i think it works welll

  • Great song, great treatment.

  • gah! ridiculous.

  • Words are NOT lame without actions.

    Sometimes all you need is words,

    and I think that's how this song is.

    Although the guy did a great job with the video, the song really isn't as great with such literal meaning.

    You don't have to see any Google image slideshows to really HEAR the song

    ;P

  • Words without actions are always lame. If you say something, you should mean it enough to do something.

  • Dude, he said it was for a school assignment. Nothing more, nothing less. Give the guy a break man.

  • @Ethaninja what you said budddy

  • Sometimes you have to translate words into actions for the words to mean anything. Words alone are lame without actions.

  • The thing about Daniel Brou is that you can light yourself on fire in front of him and he'll yawn. If you're not Joanne Yiokaris or his parents he doesn't give a flying @@@@

  • I love this Song.

    And i like your Video!

  • Ditto -----{---{-@

  • I drove from New Jersey to Texas. That's almost 800 miles. Why doesn't that matter to you? You said sacrifices matter. Let me matter.

  • Comment removed

  • You, sir, just passed the AWESOMENESS test.

    A+

  • I love this song.... and you've lifted it.... beautiful work.

  • Comment removed

  • great song....even better video...hope you got a A+

  • i had never heard this before.

    its a great tune!

  • i only found the song recently and its awesome and i thought the editing was really good. paticularly the bit with the moon!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • your good dude

    you really good

    nice editing

  • The video doesn't seem like much thought was put into it. "Textual representations?" Sorry I don't think you succeeded. It is all just a literal interpretation of the lyrics or just the lyrics written out. Good choice in music though.

  • agreed.

  • its not THAT bad pretty clever

  • i think its quite possible that because you told us that this video was a project that you worked hard on, that instantly made the immature trolls of youtube hate it becuase thats what their like.

    Dont listen to them, great video :).

  • you got an A right?

  • incredible song.

    Props for the video...not bad at all

  • What'd you do this on? :O

  • cough one was cool

  • really really cool animations ,

    the words are a bit slow , if they showed up as the artist says them it would look better

  • i love this so much. i could listen to this song all day long without getting bored. i L-O-V-E it!!! :) thx for posting it. ♥

  • I agree with overman3000...

    Let's not say it was total shit, you used some nice animations are whatever...

    I just totally don't get the idea of putting lyrics (almost word for word) in a video....

    I'd like it better when the song adds a good vibe to some animations or pictures...

  • i don't know why, but i was surprised to see all of this extremely positive feedback... i kinda thought it was shit

  • I thought it was pretty decent.

  • how???? its awesome

  • Wow amazing ...

  • Hands down...BEST FAN VIDEO EVER!

  • Chingon!!! Very Cool

  • Goin Bananas!

  • wow that was great. nice editing skills and awesome song.

    cheers from swiss

  • Great song and video. Fine job!

  • I loved it thank you. Great job.

  • Nice job on the graphics, but I think your interpretation did not bring anything original. It is completely literal, leaving me bored 20 seconds into the video. Try to be more abstract.

  • Way to go on the encouragement front there, job done, oh yes.

  • the only way to learn and grow is through constructive critisisim.

  • excellent representation! i love it.

  • great, awesome song.
