This is the least stupid video for a rock song I have ever seen. I identify strongly with the male character who walks the gauntlet of domestic abuse, make-out parties, dishwater-sharing po-dunks, and thieves only to arrive at his destination wondering about the one person in his life hes sacrificing to step into suburbia. This is a brave video
Not sure about the video but the song is the most memoriable spin on the "Missles" album.....I hope the new album reaches their peak (Gang of Losers)!!
No, but this "war on terror" is in place of that. Other than that, the recession and the need to trade in place of buy are the same. Also the Christian radicals are equally insane.
i just read the new rolling stone...i think it's a shame bands like the dears and the rosebuds will never get the recognition they deserve...aw well more for me
I came here for the same reason! this band is freaking great and when i look for stuff on youtube, i barely see any view counts. it's a shame, because this band really rocks! 3 great albums.
The song isnt that spectacular kinda of repetitive but the imagery (spellcheck) is quite brilliant. it reminds me of the human soul leaving purgatory and entering heaven...however suberbia (spellcheck) isnt quite what i pictured =)
well if you think about it, The USA has practically stuffed up the rest of the world. please do your reserch. and people dont bother replying to this, cause you will be showing the truth.

Until you have been there ...do not comment. Yes we are fighting the wrong war and we should be in Pakistan and Afghanistan to deter anything that would keep you from being able to write this. Whether you agree with Bush,Mc Cain, or Obama what we are doing is trying to save our democracy. God Speed. and God Bless the USA
osuj1973 is absolutley right i mean im british and we are in afgansitan and all the same shit as you with our banks and crap and yer he right. Pip Pip :p
They are constantly compared to other large name acts but I still hear, especially in this song, a Low-esque Alan Sparhawk-ian lyrical styling. Almost creepily so...
the video captures the current climate so perfectly it seems prophetic. the visuals are amazing and the stories are really engaging. great work to the band, the crew, and the director!
Finally!!! The day has arrived! the dears third and greatest ablum yet has arrived! World Peace is minutes away! Grab Hold of your loved one and dance!
What about ENd of a Hollywood Bedtime Story and Orchestral Pop Noir Romantique? (And if you count Nor the Dahlias, doesn't that make their 6th album?)
The video is about some broke Wall Street stockholders living in ruins and finally one American decides to cross to Mexico to live the better life where the Peso has more value than the US dollar. Great video!
that can't be true. why do they have gas masks on then? And why does the "american" show his id and his let through when no one else would be let through? Great song though and great cinematography. I thought that guy worked for the government of whatever country was on the other side and seeing how everything really is over there, but everything is great on the other side and isolated from their view. no one really knows how bad it is until they've been there I.E. Iraq, etc.
