Bloc Party - The Pioneers

[MrREDHOT1210]

I like the lirycal work from the 3 albums, the 3 EPs and the remixed versions of Silent Alarm and Intimacy problem??

PS: I like Another weekend in the city too

[mikecry8]

STRANGE VIDEO/AMAZING SONG

[yesisk8t]

if it can be broke then it can be fxed

[soldat182]

I miss the 2000-2006 sound of music :( after that the indie landfill shit came in. time for a revival of the post punk revival

[Tekchanei]

This video is still as trippy as it was 4 years ago.

[thatemoguy94]

i remember when i first watched the music video on IMF when i was young. :)

[sobegod4444]

that was one of the most beautiful songs i've ever heard...

[theycallmedumb]

the oc (:

[NeoGamer99]

they should make an actual show like this

[cookiesaredelicious1]

@NeoGamer99 i would watch it. ;D

[theteacher302]

I dont know who put this song out first, but Tunng has also done this song under the same title. Maybe they both did a cover of another band?? If anyone does know reply back thanks.

[MonkeySwoop]

Epic Band. Epic song. Epic. 

[Mateu89]

Want to see them in Sweden :/

[YuKnoeMySteez]

One of my favorite songs from the Best band in the World !

[MrAgnost]

Can't say I like the graphics & animations of the clip but the music is epic

[lptbeasy]

such a shame this song was overshadowed by banquet and helicopter. it really is one of the best songs ever made.

[labababhiffy]

I love how loads of things in the video coincide with the music, like when he coughs in time to the drums at 2:48.... i dunno... kinda satisfying...

[grungifiedtwo]

A Lizardpig is my favourite new animal :)

[lucasgelati]

Lizardpig!

[MrJimmyBoyJones]

Why does the copyright section say Bloc Party - Helicopter? XDXD

[elgojira]

brillant

[ofeydofey]

I like Tunng's version better

[reyjoker91]

the o.c. <3

[lippskiid]

time=super awesome cockroaches??

[gusos98]

the strokes es el mejor

[soundtheology]

Clint Eastwood

[ArtsandCraftsmusic]

awsome! bloc party should be on shrooms more often :)

[jeremygeorgemusic]

nice, I like this

[NateZen]

Video is very lame. Song is great.

[posh915]

@NateZen i disagree..

about the video being "very lame"..that is.....lol..

if you really watch it...it gives a bit more insight into the meaning of the song...

: ]

[theresaps]

reminds me of an early gorillza mv, but the music is amazing. complete out there.

[priccy30]

Gosh i love block party they absolutely rock baby!!!!! and this DJ makes the spectacular a miracle!

[RyanCantDrum]

Lol I thought I was watcing Gorillaz for a sec.

xD

Not joke this is a Beautiful, and awesome song and Apparently 25 people are def.

:P

[reyjoker91]

questa canzone è bellissima!

[reyjoker91]

the o.c <3

[Samus5164]

this music video is so trippy.

[ilew4567]

this band solves racism

[Rhetorikol]

hm, funny how this is actually a cover song for Tunng - Pioneers.

[zoopezoop]

@Rhetorikol This is actually the original. Get your facts straight.

[Rhetorikol]

@zoopezoop yeah I got it mixed up, thanks.

[tattaLaPiratta]

i thought this was the video for Helicopter, am i wrong?

[LaughingInsanity]

@tattaLaPiratta Wrong I think....XD

[kaashaas]

this song gives me a taste of despair...

[whitewulf33]

ha ha pig-faced lizards!

good song!

funny video!

[infimapersefone]

tunng!

[WhiteDaemon7]

what a video!! i absolutely loved it

[000surfin]

they remind me of minus the bear a lil bit

[DarthPew]

Wasn't this the original video for Helicopter?

[philsnk]

heeeey, respond someone...not gay.

[YouHave7days]

Give it up for the bassist?! D:

[burubudur12345]

Russell is god.

[Darkfloodhero]

I LOVE RUSSELL!!!

[nursefrankenstein]

I always wondered if he says we wil not be the last or the lost, hard to tell w that accent- maybe he goes back and forth between the 2- works either way though- Bloc party rocks

[PrestonCopter]

@nursefrankenstein it's "We will not be the last", I had to look it up, it really does sound like "lost" with his accent lol

[HungryHungryH0bo]

good song.. not so good video :\

[rhymeskill]

For all the musicians out there, I kind of giggled at the fact that whoever animated this video put strat pickups on Kele's Tele. The funniest part is Tele pickups would have been easier to animate as they only have one single coil at the bridge and a simple looking pickup at the neck. Ha!

Still gotta love Bloc Party!!!

[Steevz345]

Okay?...first of all...dude...who in the fuck cares.

Second...who, besides you, would notice that shit?...

Fuuck...

[PrestonZero]

2:07 Piguanas!!!!111one

[evilgenius151]

i usually dont listen to this kind of music but I like the video. i like banquet though

[MikefromMadrid]

wtf

[posh915]

i love this video for this song...

i think it says much more....about the meaning of the song......

than.. anything else could..... : ]

[vniguam]

@posh915 - true thinkig about the lyrics first hand i came up with the idea tht he was talkin about sort of like... hanging on to things and not giving up.. persevering and stuff... but the video gives a different view... sort of god like... maybe bout mysteries of the earth... id have to look at them :P

[Megiastongi]

The most shaded person in the band seems to be matt tong....... come on dude needs to express himself i could barely find info about him on the internet

[brett4telle]

@Megiastongi he lets his music speak for him, what more is there to say :D

[Megiastongi]

And how the future will affect those theories

[Megiastongi]

This song is based on God's Creation of the earth and The Theory of Evolution........ The war between Creation and Evolution

[jefmuj]

fuck

[Megiastongi]

EPicly sick!

[pioneerguy]

Bloc Party are the best band out there.

They're so versatile with their music and they're unafraid to try anything new. It's what all excellent bands do and its what makes them famous. People annoy me when they say 'Bloc Party went shit after Silent Alarm'. Those people are just bad people haha

[socrpimp1234]

I haven't heard a song by Bloc Party that I dislike, and I can't agree with you more pioneer.

[pioneerguy]

@socrpimp1234 cheers pal. Glad to know someone thinks the same :)

[PaulyPlz]

Few say that. Bloc Party took an inadvisable turn half-way through AWITC. Few songs I've heard on Intimacy keep me interested.

[SupaGansta]

@pioneerguy Bloc Party (is) the best band out there:)

[SilentBombr]

@pioneerguy Yeah man, well Weekend in the CIty was amazing, Intimacy was cool as well

[jmpatinhas15]

@pioneerguy

you'r talking about arctic monkeys right?

[pioneerguy]

@jmpatinhas15 ?

[jmpatinhas15]

@pioneerguy

NVM

[labababhiffy]

@jmpatinhas15 haha yeah i agree with both you guys! cant wait for suck it and see, even though im sure its gonna get a shit press just cause its "different"

[JohnLeClairFan]

@pioneerguy I totally agree with that statement even tho they have a different type of genre they are practically still the same. I love all Albums, Singles, & Ep's. Even though I wasn't impressed with "A Weekend in the City" it still was a good album.

[juniwilliams]

@pioneerguy bollocks. Silent Alarm was something special, I dont think even they fathom it. Everything else is just not up to that level

[pioneerguy]

@juniwilliams Nah mate. Some of their finest work lyrically and musically was after Silent Alarm, especially on some of the B-sides on Another Weekend In The City & the likes of the bonus tracks on Intimacy

[SuNDaYSTaR]

What's funny is that the exact (or almost) same video was released in America for Helicopter.

[TheWeeksExperiment]

your right i remember that  i think its the same in the UK also

[KrazyKat09]

@SnNDaYSTaR

yeh. i loved the video with that

[liamfoster101]

What a band! Best band to come out of london for the past 5 or more years definetely. Oh and this song kicks ass

[blindfox003]

@liamfoster101 What about the Gorillaz? They're also from London.

[Samus5164]

@blindfox003 Or um, HE's from London.

[Madzookeeper]

Ooft this song is awesome

[elkhadi]

Cant believe "Mercury" has got more views than this classic.

Evolution sucks. I'm starting to doubt Bloc Party's ability to surpass "Silent Alarm".

[darkmattersunshine]

I know!!! mercury wasn't that great...

[beehen12345]

Is it Bloc Party's fault that the masses' taste changes? My favourite album is Silent Alarm, but I'm open to see what they have to offer, you just need to listen to it with an open mind. If they did the same as Silent Alarm over and over it would get incredibly boring.

[elkhadi]

I agree.

I've just listened to all the Intimacy tracks live, and "Letter To My Son", Ares, Ion Square all blew me away.

All is forgiven, Bloc Party. XD

It was just Mercury that scared me off the new album. Guess I shouldnt judge a book by its cover.

[mattysen]

Halo its one of there best as well out of all there albums

[Bunechunk]

Or, don't judge an album by it's single. hehe

[elkhadi]

I agree. All I'm saying is that to me, Silent Alarm was perfect. And perfection is a hard thing to top. :P

[SLAhimself]

Because the mass is changing means bloc party has to? No, if bloc partys making music to satisfy the general public. Thats the wrong reason to be making music..

[beehen12345]

Mate that's what I'm arguing. They aren't changing for the masses, they are changing within themselves.. I never said they are changing just for the masses because they really aren't

[iDan245]

lol

[shadowfox1909]

DUDE LOL I think this is sweet that looks so cool

[golfprov1x]

superdude licks mike hunt

[angelamegrey]

wow guys...back to the band, I just found out they are playing wreck the halls in LA next week! it's gonna be at club nokia, downtown! i'm so psyched! anyone going?

[pepinoguy21]

[nickonator1234]

[chompa12]

superdude 570

[SuperDude570]

[recycled321]

these guys have like the weirdest videos.

[hmshark]

Beastly song! Does anyone know where to get the tabs?

[TopBadge]

anyway i like the cartoon its funny and poetic

[robs225]

this is a sick song w

[jamesm225]

the video is kinda trippy but the song is really good

[ant23178]

if you dont like the songs video then dont have youtube opened while you listen to it , fussy twats

[oven1111]

Who cares weather the cilp is good or bad. Isnt it the song that is important and the reason for your liking or disliking them?

The film clip is irrevlant for if the lyrical content of a song is so weak as to rely on its video to convey the songs meaning or emotion than the song cant really be that gerat in the fist place. And i think that Bloc Party are very good at painting for us a lyrical picture we can all understand and interoperate. At the end isnt the film clip just an added bonus?

[Gl0balStyle]

agree.

[spikedupmeh]

they should put this in guitar hero world tour.

[debbielosthermind]

o.O ? what has the face of the singer to do with the quality of a song?

[t0enail1]

EVERYTHING!

[zokyle]

Lol?

[ElectricG4]

nah man screw you

it's a fucking cartoon

looks don't mean shit when it comes to music.

If looks determined the quality of the song Beyonce would be like the BEST musician in the world followed by fucking Jessica Alba(who isn't even a musician)

[VDUBber91]

Good song, not so good video.

[jewishmansjew]

ive listened to this quite a few times ,it was awesome now its not enough

[paigecrazy40]

this song makes me wanna buy a bottle and get wasted by myself and think of all the fucked up things i've done in my life. and all the good times that will never be. i love this. so awwesome. ALL WE NEED IS TIME....

[iwasboredokay]

i love that song.. but the video is ugh..

[Nigam1337]

This is by far one of the best bloc party song

[RainsEveryDay]

Pig-headed lizzards! :D

[tajash13]

Cant people just enjoy the song?

[wrules]

my favoruite bloc party song awesome

[frankspanks12]

i agree, mine too

[RainsEveryDay]

[insanepsycho]

[foginho18]

[DeliciousBob]

[imdeffbetta]

[chazridley]

Good song, must buy the album! I only have Helicopter on my i-pod. This owns!

And go away you stupid people with rascist comments. It's ridiculous, unfair and injust.

[LFCffaf4life]

That's not something i agree with! I must write some shite before someone else does!

[hosolof]

Hahahaha, your a fucking moron...

[Infidel775]

KU KLUTZ KLAN KUNT, GO TO HELL!

[lakersmiami]

dickhead!!!!!!!!!

[CONFLlCT]

i think this is there best song

[MATTHOOK42]

Silly shit, love to see him say that in a room full of people. That's right, you be a racist shit from the safety of your own home.

No one should tolerate that.

[imaspudato]

?

fucking idiot

[holmes917]

[felice333]

[spursdude92]

I remember when I first heard this song- i thought for a second- this isn't as good as thier otherstuff- then after finishing listening- it became 1 of my favorite BP songs

[Jikel7Bob224]

Exactly how I felt-I didn't even pay attention to this song at all when I first heard it and now, it's been in my top ten favorite Bloc Party songs for probably three months.

[benthaninja332]

i did a speech on this song in speech class 2 years ago. i love this song, it means so much.

[redheadmenace]

This video moves me to tears, well.. not really but it's still freakin cool! :]

[Ikro71]
