Thao with the Get Down Stay Down - Bag of Hammers

[IDANCEHARDSTYLEMOFO]

Oh shit she's a gir?

I always thought it was a guy

[TheSunCountry]

WE MAKE MUSIC AND WANT YOUR EAR HOLES TO HEAR IT!!

[ona25]

I love this song! It's my ringtone now!

And I almost bought the camera!

[weedingthoughts]

much very much

[weedingthoughts]

much very much

[jbenjaminwilson]

@ inachu - Racist much?

[spilpilz]

Oh shit, i thought it was a boy.

[inachu]

neocon made the video.... don't buy her music until she only deals with asian directors or people who are not zionists

[ThePrestigeQ]

Cherry brought me here.

[augustwest1313]

maybe i just had too much to drink but i cant figure out what is more beatuiful her or her song.

[Willowthecollie]

@augustwest1313

They are both equally beautiful! :D

[wizirbyman]

i saw them yesterday at the music box!!! I LOVE YOU THAO! YOUR MUSIC IS SO CUTE

[PetePlaysBass]

I want that camera.

[greenrangerx]

Wow whoever said she is ugly needs to be hit with a bag of hammers. She is super hot. I would worship her.

[Librekom]

Love It :)

[InDiepKid]

obbbseeeeeeesssed with this song! so upbeat and fun! and i think she's really pretty and her voice rocks my world

[chinchillamelee]

oktomat #ftw

:D

[findgreatnewmusic]

musictomyears(dot)tk just added this band to their site! check it out to find other great bands you never knew about!

[keeesters]

Okay i admit i thought a guy sung this song. However i still love this so much!

[blackbird00721]

she is very pretty. and her voice is so cool and different!!! i'm so bored with all of those sex symbols singing in the same nasally, weak voice. thao 4eva!!

[yupperooliv31]

I love this, I love her, I love her music, I love the video, she's got it alll down.

[shannabanana11]

He's kidding, right? Thao is adorable!!

[oliviagordon49]

Thao is one of the most splendid human beings I have ever encountered. If at all possible, try to go to one of her shows. They're magical, especially the collaborations with Mirah.

[zero221977]

strange question but what is the camera used in this video?

[eponack]

Clearly anyone who does not see the beauty here is a chump who has fallen furr the plastic mass produced crap that is a waste of dancing toes.

Do you even know what woman are meant to look like? Or do you only know us from magazines?

Thao you are lovely! From the tip of your nose to the tip of those cowboy boots! Thank you furr sharing you beauty!

[JerrelMD]

Reminds me of Norah Jones

[jonowonoponosono]

she definitely has a very unique singing style and versatile voice.

cool and clever indeed.

[pookusmaximus]

Love her. <3

[rocket1918]

lol she kinda ugly.

[maeviac30]

@rocket1918 not everyone thinks the typical 'blonde hair blue eyed skinny anerexic ditzy bimbos' are attractive. everyone has different tastes..

[kansasBlues08]

I just knew someone was doing pop music that a rock guy could enjoy

[laurairb]

What does the lyrics means? I like this song but there are some parts that I don't understand because I don't know too much english

[sleepycat16]

she is very sexy.

i'm serious!

[christopherbattersby]

This group is talented, especially the singer. If you want someone better looking, you're missing the point -- it's music. Or maybe you are a Brittany Spears fan.

[kiraownsurmom11]

This song came to my head today after seeing her name somewhere and couldnt find the name of it. This is so good.

[jsdjfhsjdkf]

She's beautiful and talented and amazing and a great activist.

[TheGrogory]

she would be attractive if she starts to wear lingeries in public and put on 6 pounds of make-up that makes her self like a clown. ( sarcasm at LADY GAGA fro those who dont get this comment)

[matticans7pointO]

she has that natural kinda look to her.. i like it :O

[matticans7pointO]

she has that natural kinda look to her.. i like it :O

[MichaelHowrie]

Genuinely one of my favourite songs of all time

[y0itzant]

im sorry, buy i always thought that this was a guy singing, untill i looked up the music.

[Szaszification]

Shake, shake, shake the frame of this house!

[teganyavo]

thao is cute as a button imo, and a better musician even than that

[352sk8in]

what would this band do without cory kennedy?

[izzoid]

She reminds me of my ex Japanese teacher... And my Washington State history teacher.

[dbin42]

This song was in Campus Radio!! :D

[audidita]

i saw her perform this song on a feild trip i went on meant to inspire young musicians and she was amazing, i loved it. she was charming and funny and gave great advice. oh, and she looked beautiful.

[bryguy2049]

I found myself smiling without knowing while listening to this.

[izzoid]

@bryguy2049 Same here. I love her.

[asmile949]

That's a cool and clever song

[BonnieMint]

ha! fucking lion lookin' bitch.

[MollieBlancRocks]

She is a really good singer but in a really strange way!

[lovelifeloveme25]

i love this song, i think she's absolutely gorgeous.

[sumwhatparanoid]

any theories on what the lyrics mean? ive always wondered why there seems to be a reference to suicide (or homicide?)

[ArkansasBlast]

ooooh, I really like the time-lapse of the melting ice cream cone :)

[thomascray]

I LOVE THIS :)

[Andrew301]

How did you get your Oktomat to work?!

[nikonGeek]

I heard this song for the first time using the Aweditorium app. Very catchy and original.

Long live the independent musician!

[Askabadger]

Aside from music having nothing to do with appearance, I think thao is fucking beautiful. eat a dick

[bradenls0]

this sucks

[roofboy179]

Yeah, most good looks in music is make up and photoshop. It's a nice relief to see a talented person that isn't covered in face paint.

And Thao is beautiful. So go poop in a shoe.

[thepuddums]

Offspring played that song 'When We Swam' Ever since i've just been looking up Thao, i think she's really cool and original.

[krant28]

wow, that's awesome!....I just randomly stumbled upon Thao just now.....I can't believe it's taken me this long to find out about her....

[CircleSun]

love it too! :)

[thgreatmizudi]

I LOVE THISS AND I LOVE LOMOGRAPHY

[file83]

She is so beautiful.  Awesome package :)

[TheYashuna]

El video casi no me gusta, pero me encanta la canción !!!!!

[Saoirsesasylum]

188 people dont have a bag of hammers.

how unfortunate.

[ivysaurr]

she looks insanely like my mum when she was younger o___o

great song (:

[elmersglue16]

this song is so much fun, and i love how she looks so natural and free. shes really pretty.

[Mojave888]

So wonderfully different, and clever! Love it!

[eagleruler88]

love it!!

[MyLadyinlove]

THAO in der Zukunft.

Wie Hässlich.

[mattress58]

I don't think watching that ice cream dissolve the cone and fade into the tile really brought about allusions of "soothing" but, maybe there's some greater metaphor I'm missing there.

[CyborgDeer]

why am i watching this?

okay bye.

ps.@BonnieMint IKNOWRIGHT?!?!?

[BonnieMint]

bitch is gross):

[KrisMTL]

@BonnieMint ?

[Fest1valHead]

@BonnieMint Srsly?? You are either a very lonely, or very bored and immature person

[BonnieMint]

@Fest1valHead k thnx (:

[MartinezFidencio]

Very nice song! and she's beautiful.

[mcmillanxt1]

@MartinezFidencio BOOOOBS

[MrEggroll2424]

haa thao is my moms name

[purpleviola1]

I love this! It is so fun and catchy!)

[fleetvision]

that camera is an Oktomat by Lomo. fun stuff. fun song!

[philliesphan804]

The productuion quality of this video is impressive.

[leloby]

This person and all her muso pals are in a "shite music" bubble which, even with the lure of the "click to buy" proposition, I won't be venturing into again.

[eire138]

@leloby regardless, I ran monitors for her at a local venue and her and her band were pretty cool people, and they put on a fun show. I kinda like em...

[xThunderclapsx]

OMG I LOVE THIS SONG e.e

[ryanc52]

Such a great fun song, and such a cute girl!

[blondie22x111]

i was whaching MY LIFE AS LIZ on mtv and herd this song on one of the episods and i loved this song

[islehcesyle]

LOVE

[togglenuts]

Opening credits to the next Wes Anderson movie, maybe?

[indieaner52]

anyone knows what camera that is in the beginning?

[iBleedGold]

@indieaner52 Lomography OKTOMAT Compact 35mm Camera with 8 Serial Lenses

[MrThorano]

@iBleedGold cool, i first thought it was a toy

[Pengi1993]

@iBleedGold thx was wondering wat camera it is :]

[Carlos36]

classic

[poeticnerd1990]

love this song ^.^ it's been stuck in my head all week! no complaints her :)

[potatopily]

^^ 9 voice...

[CamEthioMan]

wow ive never heard of this band before, but they are legit good

[superhappyfuntimesk8]

great voice i just discovered her and i love everything i have heard thus far =]

[Enriquetuy]

Love this video. Great song, great editing, inventive, and she is just so much fun to watch. If you ever have a chance to see her live do it.

[SidLizCieCie]

This song is absolutely adorable! Is there anywhere where I can find the guitar chords for it so I can learn it myself?

[MsPurplejewel]

I heard this song on my life as liz..I fell in love with this song

[deniwilco]

Yes, because when making music it is soooo important that someone be attractive, to you specifically. Moron.

[ginnoveffect]

@MichaelHowrie Totally. She's cuter than a bag of bunnies.

[StarvingSound]

@deniwilco And he's crazy. She's gorgeous.

[jamesclare95]

@deniwilco i know its bin ayear but i say music has nothin to do wih being attractive and singing, music is in all off us black,white,small.tall, ect music is sound not looks and should be sang by all shapes an sizes not some as you say attractive singer that can't sing for shit!

[sleepysson]

@BonnieMint Why are you an assmoron.

[nawabmevans]

@BonnieMint dude those kids on ur profile are ugly...

as sin

[thecapone45]

@BonnieMint racist much?

[mcmillanxt1]

@BonnieMint BOOBS

[BonnieMint]

@mcmillanxt1 yeah....

[mcmillanxt1]

@BonnieMint something youll neveer see

[BonnieMint]

@mcmillanxt1 ..yes? (:

[sunsetprojector]

@BonnieMint

Thao is a talented and beautiful singer. and you? you're a shallow prick.

See the difference?

[BonnieMint]

@sunsetprojector  ok? haha (: its k

[mayitpleasethecourt]

oooooooooo

[ruggerblue]

Whe this song was shared with me, it couldn't have come at a better time. It literally gave me hope...I love the lyrics, the filming and video and your music. Go girl go!

[Enriquetuy]

This is her best video. her live performance is great. It just sucks that the DC area can't keep her talent, sniff. PLEASE MORE SHOWS AT THE BACK CAT!

[bthehope]

love it!!!

[Evillerer]

So.... very.... very.... cool.

[pritheemydear]

love this!

[themoveEs]

saw them in Portland with Archeology at the Doug! such a good show!

[domclaudevandamme]

it's really weird seeing a fellow vietnamese not singing your traditional fob vietnamese shit. which is cool, good to see someone else breaking your typical vietnamese mold of your typical vietnamese fob shit.

[FunKADunK]

HAHAHAHAHA

[nataliekw]

love it

[38Ultraman]

Thao, you have to work on ur acting and lip syncing, make the viewer believe ur singing, u have a great voice tho.

[blaccnblu]

lol i feel like thats how she really sings judging from the way she moves in her videos.

[SponsoredbyDuffBeer]

i heard about her in Spin, now i think shes incredible!

[ARC2883]

EFFIN AWESOME!

[stevekirschners]

Just heard the song on the Ford commercial! Nice work! I love her music!

[hakg93]

from da rva! what what represent

[Meghan5681]

I saw her perform last year with the Hotel cafe tour it was a great show. I think this song was used in the end of the ford fusion commercial just the oh oh oh part for like a second.

[locust68]

Saw they in Philly, lots of talent all the songs were great

[rickyle]

Very different rhythms and melodies. Never expected this singing style from an Asian American singer. Very creative works.

[Kyothine]

that's a bit of a stupid comment.

[rickyle]

I am not sure why you think it was a stupid comment. I have never seen a Vietnamese singer singing the type of music she sings. It's a different experience.

[gSaOcGgDhGiRl]

I agree with rickyle! I am a Vietnamese myself and have never heard someone Vietnamese singing this type of music.

[ivantoplay]

It's a Lomgography Oktomat

[sideshowmel13]

love this

[lafemmeparallel]

what kind of camera is that!!? :O!

[professionallynasty]

Love her voice. Kinda rough and hoarse.

[stickyboywonder]

I'll be there!!

[oldhacks]

such a pretty girl

[AnahiemerOC]

thia was a nice clip

[sellernodoubt]

I love this!

[DeansterTheSnow]

She's so Goddamn adorable <3

[iblis6]

sister just got back from evc and said she loved the concert makes me wish id went after hearing this song

[ClueSign]

what commercial is this on? any of you guys know? (should be Home Depot - hahaha)

[emcake]

I think it was a walmart commercial.

[ClueSign]

Oh thank you emcake -- that was driving me craaaazy!

[imcurtis206]

wow shes hot. I wish she was coming by Seattle on the freaking weekend.

[utr6311]

I second that. Saw her at monolith this past weekend.  She's smokin' for sure. Great band as well.

[LRisley2]

that was good, it definetely picked up

[PABPrankCalls]

this song is going to be stuck in my head for awhile

[Noonkip]

I love her. :>

[haselock1963]

wow wow wow i think that says it

[knataliex]

i love this so freaking much.

[wmorris101]

Wow. I can't decide if I really love this song, or if I really hate it.

[DarceyAchin]

I'm glad the money I spent was able to Allow Thoaq Nugen to come to Lubbock and play.

[queenbeegeneva]

i heard an interview with her on xmu this morning and she said she took a quote from michael j fox on the actors studio saying his parkinsons was like a bag of hammers and that we all had our baggage in life - his a bag of hammers :) she seems really cool

[RawrToasty]

I love when I here songs on commercials that I have heard on Youtube... Oh the power of the internet

[KoreyAnus]

god shes badass!

[natenasty11]

seeing you tommorow at empty bottle, so pumped

[viki008]

LOMO is going Thao-

[boosted04specV]

Damn, someone's got talent :o

[thewhitebarrywhite]

dear god, i heard this for the first time the other day and thought some advertising agency going to pick up on this...and now i just caught the clorox commercial which makes use of "hammers"! that's how it is sometimes i suppose. congrats thao. seeing you tomorrow at the hotel cafe.

[DeansterTheSnow]

Thao, you're such a sweetheart <3

[momohead35]

aah! I love the editing! wat did u use? and nice song too!

[Nefarioso]

I just heard the opening guitar strains for BAG OF HAMMERS on the Clorox Wipes ad tonight. I guess this is old news. Is Thao herself aware of it, though?

[wildorbit3200]

I saw Thao in St. Louis ...it was the first time and it won't be the last. Amazing girl. I love this song!
