City and Colour - Fragile Bird (Unrated)

[The1337Snuff]

Why is this video age-restricted?

[juju0udon]

It's kinda funny how people don't realize prostitution in this video actually exist in our society.

[Meburningyou]

@juju0udon This video had nothing to do with prostitution. Guys sees girls in lingerie and auto-assumes they're hookers? No. The song itself is about his wife's nightmares, he stated that publicly. The girls in the video are probably only dressed that way to simply make it sexy. But there was no exchange of money and I don't think the artist intended to suggest prostitution.

[samanthalouiseholmes]

@Meburningyou Thank you for that. That is really the story behind it. I can personally relate to this song, and hearing people talk like that makes me ashamed of the society where they automatically assumes from just a music video.

[Alosho63592]

It's weird...I have listened to all his albums and there hasn't been one song I didn't like

[GeeLikeWoah]

On heavy rotation, till "we" fall asleep...

[stupidhurts13]

i want to punch 38 people in the face.

[cedperez04]

This song is givng me a feeling of "HOT SUMMER NIGHT" everytime its playing...

[HmmRawr]

@cedperez04

I thought I was the only one. Good times.

[cedperez04]

@HmmRawr i want to correct it actually....its "WILD HOT SUMMER NIGHT" feeling...

[xIEatZombiezx]

Anyone who doesn't like City and Colour is usually because they like bands that fake their voices by using auto tune.

[Revoltion35]

38 people didnt see the nipple.



[rbbrd641]

I had to actually sign in to view and listen to this Video?.. I'm so Proud!! Luv this Song!

[Smokieet]

To bad more of their songs don't have drums and bass like this one and weightless. Their acoustic stuff kinda bores me to death.

[computercamel421x]

yes! been serching for this song ever since i heard it on the radio after a couple weeks i finally found it

[UrRevolutionIsAJoke]

This was the first song I heard when the new album came out, I was thinking shit this isn't as good as his other stuff... But after listening to the rest of the album, it's fantastic, this is a good song to add to his set to mix things up a bit, and other songs on 'Little Hell' are also amazing, and most are still the same style to 'Bring Me Your Love' and 'Sometimes'

[BrantHooksOfficial]

Everything about this song is top-notch, just phenomenal. Anyone know the model of that guitar?

[KaamosOrillion]

@BrantHooksOfficial A little hard to tell from the vid, but I think it`s a Supro Martinique.

[thetoddbertuzzi]

@BrantHooksOfficial will you buy it if you find out?

[scottthoms1981]

love this song and album and the work of dallas green with city and colour; but i don't get why everyone has to compare this work to the music of alexisonfire! seriously both are very good in their own right! i thought the last AOF album was really good and liked alot of their other stuff as well.... music is about mood and emotion; one minute i might want something edgy, the next i may want to go a quieter more emotional place... come on people, let's grow up and respect each others opinions!!!

[DavyJones1324]

I'm totally gay for this man.

[GettinBoredAgain]

i love Dallas Green. but for me, i'm not really feelin this new album..... however, on shuffle, it sounds So Much Better! oh well, just poor choice in song order. i forgive you, Dallas. :) i'll be seeing you on tour soon

[Emo4Rent]

Are You Fucking Serious?..Would Someone Like To Post The Comment That Wittminator Posted? :o

[OutByOne]

there are 35 people who just don't get this video

[mybandapp]

cool

[xxbl00dyvengenc]

Did I just see tits on youtube? 

[TylerTheCreator69ful]

Dallas is just amazing. Never have I heard of such a soothing, and cleansing way with words. Also how he can hit that spot in your heart when you actually listen to the lyrics. I'm simply at awe when I listen to him. <3

[jamgrieve]

Saying that C&C is better than AOF is opinion, not fact. I didn't care much for AOF's last album but the material they did release (EPs, etc.) after was a lot better. I guess you can say that is an opinion as well. Still, don't compare C&C to AOF. Two very different styles.

[camvstheworld182]

Personally, I prefer the simple songs thing he did before, but this is a very good song. Still miss and prefer AOF though :)

[TouchMeTherePlease]

31 people had the balls to state their opinion

[melodykathleen]

love love love this song!!!

[ItsZelda82]

I really think I should know you... because, well.... I know Im crazy but...

you know me and that's just plain to see. Take care out there, ill try my best to make it on the 8th- pray for me k

[HoldOntoHope071]

Wade and George all have their own side projects just like Dallas. AOF was going no where fast the last couple years so why shouldn't Dallas start his own thing. He's amazing at what he does.

[miriam1683]

F'ing Awesome!!!!

[dserrano919]

City and Colour is Music, Alexisonfire is Noise....

[jmartinsongs]

I love everything this man does, truly inspiring. Check out my cover of "Northern Wind" please & let me know what you think

[brett42ya]

you were right when you said its not a new band it a guy and he has been been around for a while, and his most popular song was and still is comin' home

[TheCanucks4eva]

game 7.... my poor Canucks...

[tommollison]

@TheCanucks4eva i still think about it...sigh. if there's any consolation from it, its this song!

it'll only be sweeter when we win the cup next year!

[fragilebird19]

i fucking lovee this song. so damn sexy.

[atoolbayy]

i lovee quintt <3



[hondataitr]

city and color is most definately NOT better than alexisonfire @OKzs

[Lanarkwow]

Awsome song....love it!

[michaeljones1301]

what a song

[Yorgothegreek]

LOVE THIS SONG

[HoboHero13]

Chill.

[ContortingKezia]

I love seeing Dallas in his truest form. Had the chance to chat with him shortly when AOF was in Minnesota. Kinda wish he would take the reigns again like he did for the album Watch Out!

[msamynicholle]

I like the song, but i am not really feeling the video. Talking about prostitutes being misunderstood and in need of love is starting to be a cliche in music in my opinion.

[Poppy44507]

is he wearing Warby Parker glasses?

[muserati90]

31 people are gay or fat girls :L

[horderulzforever]

@muserati90 Fuck off

[muserati90]

@horderulzforever (:



[nevershoutlindsay]

@muserati90 sorry, how does not liking a song make you gay or fat? i love city and colour, but that just makes no sense. have some respect.

[tmsj00]

@muserati90 lol fat girls....

[HELLOWPILLOW]

wow. this video is amazing.

[reptileman97]

my 6 year old brother has night terrors

[mpinnock]

Music is progressing and electronic is what its progressing into. You will understand soon america, its a euro thing.

[CodyT3212]

So far this is the only song I can even stand. Most of his shit is hipster garbage.

[laxno11]

@CodyT3212 you just can't appreciate good music

[CodyT3212]

@laxno11 Yes I most certainly can, which is why I choose not to listen to drivel. 

[TheMattjonesmusic]

@CodyT3212 I understand that you have an opinion to like it or not but do you have to label it "hipster garbage"? Try to give a valid reason of why you don't like something instead so people actually can respect your opinion.

[countingmoons]

I don't know how I feel about the.. 'electronic'-ness of this new track

[gradmasterb32]

Amazing song

[bigballsbigslong]

i love this song :)

[theraVen27]

AH DAllas you are THEE shit!

i fucking love you man!

thank you!!!!!!

[StupidDamnUsernames]

Shantel Van Santen looks HOT!

[s0meb0dyawes0me]

I love this song! I've never seen this video before, but it's done really well :)

[Marcinababy]

sweetnesss or should i say tweetness goood one!

[Canonyst]

what's the brand of guitar is dallas using on this vid?? D:

[HIPPIEFOOT]

this song is soo delicate and beautiful. i love dallas greens voice and his enormous Canadian weiner!

[AGreyDawn]

This cinematographer is incredibly talented.

[mhinsda]

= I like the song and video' = the guy can hold a note (voice) and match it with the right guitar tempo an chord = nice! .... very nicely done:)

[mathewspeakman]

@mhinsda so basically..... you mean he can sing in tune.....???

[Wittminator]

alexisonfire is dead after this song got so popular...he started this band as a side project and it took over the band he said he would never let come second to his main band...

[OKzs]

@Wittminator

Sorry but your whole post is wrong. There is no new band its just him. This song is so new and is not even his most popular, Save Your Scissors was it and he has the right to put out his personal music, George is just upset, Wade has moved on as well and they are not getting along. Its not just Dallas. C&C is better than AOF anyway

[spidersquasher]

@OKzs YOU WATCH YOURSELF WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT ALEXISONFIRE.

[Dabigcheezeable]

@OKzs City & Colour are actually in fact a band and Dallas has said so multiple times, but yes back then he was a solo artist, but now 'City & Colour" are infact a band.

[OKzs]

@Dabigcheezeable

I have never heard him say that, he might have referred to "his band" in the same way that Rihanna does, but he is no more of a band that Rihanna is. If you watch her Good Girl Gone bad DVD and you hear her speak about them you would think she is in a rock band. Bands usually do interviews, usually are in the video much like Billy Talent for example (or any other actual bands) if he morphed into a band I have yet to see it

[MrTwKillen]

@OKzs Alexisonfire is so much better then city and colour i wish he could remain in alexisonfire but hes moved on and i respect that i just wish city and colour sound like it did in the sometimes album

[KarrsGoVroom]

@OKzs Both City and Colour and Alexisonfire are amazing in their own ways. To say one is better than the other is only a matter of opinion.

[MrIbanos]

@OKzs Sorry, but your whole post makes you seem like a pretentious douche who wastes all their time obsessing over bands just so they can seem like their opinion is more valid than others. BUT MAYBE IM WRONG

[ashleynice11]

love the video and everything dallas does he does with his whole heart... while awake the sleepless nights... <3 C&C

[cutie12466]

What genre would this be classified as?

[tdunlavey]

@cutie12466 Awesome

[cutie12466]

[skullage2010]

[WiteKitty]

[Rhawnied]

Do you ever wish for a Love button??

[tosca411]

Ok...I just have to say it. His voice is a dead ringer for good ol' Steve Miller. Love it!

[jairoalfonsogp]

<3

[cloudsinmyise]

Yeah.......night terrors are hell.......I would like Dallas to help me get through mine

[JESTER200001]

[jackieeethepwner]

[TheHOURGLASS4]

Shantel VanSanten FTW!! :)

[pulgaassassina]

The best voice!



[crashinghearts]

NEAT FACT OF THE DAY:

any one remember dallas's song from way back called "When she" ? The rhythm is the same chords as that song just with a capo on the 5th fret....

"when she sleeps....."

[TheCanadianToast]

Whoever says that this song is shit, think again, this song has awesome beats, lyrics, and music. :D

[SchnarrlyD]

poo

[665Jordan]

Love it!!!!

[rizzoindabox]

Such a great song. Seriously impressed with Dallas Green, as I was getting kinda bored with the usual city and colour.

The video is pretty cool though, I just wish they didn't keep on cutting out to other clips so often, I swear it could cause seizures. (jk, but really.) And I wish DG would stop sitting like a douche with his legs crossed and head tilt back throughout the whole thing. Bothers me for some reason haha.

So sweet, though.

[kehm31]

shantel vansanten !!!

[labatch]

i wana see his wife's t's haha

[fistfyt]

@labatch Fuck you.

[2006Socrates]

This is such an ace song ! The music video, the sound and his voice, who could dislike this !?

[veriticphase]

Anyone that thinks this video should be cut is an idiot! Great song!

[candyapple131]

Sexy naked women

[fistfyt]

@candyapple131 Fuck you.

[RandyMarshATRift]

25 people mistake the dislike button for a "dis-i-like" button

[onlyonefresno2]

25 persons linten to bad music

[onlyonefresno2]

it's sad to know that in the society thet we live this video needs to be rated and cut, because it's a masterpiece.

[C1RCAKNIFESU]

@ssh719 You are stupid, honestly if you don't understand the video don't say it sucks because it makes you look like an ignorant asshole.

[BrEa051]

Omg I fucking love this songg :D

[Androskiz]

the girl in this has an amzing ass.

[bjleek]

The Prostitute Is A Metaphore For The "Fragile Bird". The Video Showing This LADY With Her Own Personal Night Terrors. This Is Her Sick Haunting Dream. Music Is ABout Personal Interpretation Of The Lyrics, That How People Relate To Songs. We Are All Fragile Due To Life's "LITTLE HELLS". The Fixes Are Not Always Here And Now(All That I Can Do Is Hope She Makes It Thru) Dallas Being Able To Comfort Her, But Not Completely Taking The Thoughts Away b/c It Is Still Haunting Her. Loved It..BLESS

[bella3458]

He is the best thing there is.

Period.

[Nahaylem]

Best musician....

[Philler94]

anyone know what guitar Dallas is playing?

[WhateverULike02]

2:48 kinda looks like Mary-Kate Olsen from Beastly. Is that her?

[WhateverULike02]

Can someone explain this video. I'm not sure if I have it right or not.

[Rankor]

@WhateverULike02 It's about time travel.

[RedBananaPro]

soooooo good.

[RaRnBaRn]

Love the song, video on the other hand was a bit of let down. Not really what I had in mind at all. But, there it be.

[RaRnBaRn]

Love the song, video on the other hang was a bit of let down. Not really what I had in mind at all. But, there it be.

[oath0505]

Great song!!

[MessyMelRyan]

That was supposed to be a love heart lol

[MessyMelRyan]

Offt Shantel VanSanten -3

[bringmePTVatsix]

god. its absolutely beautiful. iv fallen asleep every night for the past 2 weeks to this song.

[Bakersak]

Not to hate or anything but I prefer his older albums.

[greenducky007]

its is about his wife because in interviews she explained that she has night terrors and he helps her get through them

[JiLLyBiLLy1]

@greenducky007 Isn't he is married to that old much music host, leah miller ?

[theej12354]

@greenducky007 omg what a sweet guy, that is actually so cute...

wish he was my hubby!

[yellowoctoberpink]

[jackieeethepwner]

@greenducky007 are you talking about leah?

[greenducky007]

@jackieeethepwner yeah 

[Adienne16]

Awesome.

[PuseyKatBanger]

Electric awesomeness, lovin the new vibe. The video is interesting seems like someonegoing through withdrawl which does match the lyrics.

[purelifed00d]

i don't like his new style, he's trying to get more out there.

I just liked him and his guitar. my opinion tho.

[HorriblyDarling]

@purelifed00d yea, you're right, i wish he would just stay exactly the same and not evolve musically. you hit the nail right on the head

[HorriblyDarling]

@purelifed00d yea, you're right, i wish he would just stay exactly the same and not evolve musically. you hit the nail right on the head

[99Paradigm]

24 non Canadian people made it so I have to sign in to view the video.

btw I'm #1,201

[wordimakambal]

When i first heard the song i immediately thought " Huh, a song about prostitutes..nice!"

[SuomiNation]

dallas should do a song with colin james. that would be somethin crazy !

[zesty555666]

Theres totally a pair of t's at 0:38...

[MissieNess]

@zesty555666

Lol @ 0:40 and they're nasty orangutan looking ones hah

[snipist29]

I think Dallas Green is amazing....and im Canadian!!!

[LeviBenton1]

i got the new album its amazing youve saved the world again dallas

[GlitterNice]

The entire video can also be seen as a metaphor for peace. The white dove that is fucked over and over. And is like dying or dead in away.
