  • Being sick sucks...

  • I'm disappointed with myself. I've heard my friends talk about The Shins for ages, but I only checked them out now... six months wasted, considering I could have been listening to THIS.

  • @walawalawombat I listened to them when they came out but stopped when they got big, here I am hanging my head in shame. Try that, lol.

  • @walawalawombat Haha better late than never. :)

  • Garden State! <333

  • BENGTAPPA... AMEN!,

  • @ipodtoucher15 Have you heard New Slang? Or Simple Song?

  • this song is soo good. but sadly its only song by them that i like :(. the rest of their music is terrible.

  • evidently youtuber, you have never given Chutes Too Narrow a listen.

  • @ipodtoucher15

    Or "Pink Bullets"?

  • <3

  • how have i just found out about them now?

  • best melody ever. the opening notes. aaaaah, gorg.

  • Fuck, this is one of these songs you wish they had nothing, absolutely nothing to do with you. Yet they fit so well.

  • This was my ex boyfriends alarm for years...I used to hate it...but now it makes perfect sense I always remember waking up to this with him and being happy :)

  • Listen to Busker Bros - Cover Letter for a Canadian Shins-esque band!

  • Comment removed

  • Oh man memories... :D

  • I just had a friend who came over and heard this song and though it sucked, and that I had a horrible taste in music by liking The Shins. We're not friends anymore.

  • @sierraaawrr you forgot the 't' at the end of 'thought', kinda confused me, 'cause the sentence is expressing something else... not sure what, but you not liking the shins. but luckily it is not that way :)

  • @sierraaawrr Did you shoot him?

  • lool i love the title:3

  • Buenos días mundo.

  • I knew this song beforehand, but it was playing at a party I went to the other night, and, well, I can't stop listening to it now.

  • Comment removed

  • This is the first band I remember I've heard when I was little. I still like them now. I'm proud of little me :)

  • drove across the U.S.A. with my buddies, this was one of the top plays, can't beat the sun rise in an unknown city to this song with my buddies in the van with me. i'll never forget it

    r.i.p. Tommy-you made that trip man! :-D

  • Very good sing. Very touching movie also.

  • @jaytf1231 My bad. I mean very good song.

  • @jaytf1231 My bad . I meant very good song.

  • Aids...

  • @G3XRevolution Why did you post that?

  • i love this song O_O so much now.

  • indie 

  • what the fuck is a hipster and why do they all think they're the shit?

  • Why cant a song just be a song, a beautiful fenemon you listen to and feel great. Today you have to associate everything with something and its there the argues begin.

  • @BENGTPAPPA I've been apart of Youtube long enough to just ignore everybody.

  • im so hipster, i phased myself out

  • I like good music and I like the shins so put two and two together or you can GTFO!!!

  • All this "hipster" talk, if you call hipster, you are likely one youself.

  • Your not a hipster if you call yourself one

  • I'm a hipster, and I approve this song.

  • All of you are hipster's

  • @joel198d And you are one douche bag.

  • Love it, its magical... Just like that :)

  • One of my favorite songs

  • my god. can't we all just agree to let people like what they like and not knock each others' music choices? 

  • Process of realization that one has died. "Oh, these squawking birds won't quit, building nothing laying bricks." Thoughts.

  • Man the Shins are ok i guess...they just kinda sound like they are trying to be Modest Mouse to me.

  • @devistatedbeaver get out

  • @devistatedbeaver modest mouse helped the shins make it out there and become well known.

  • @raindropxkisses You mean showed them how to do it so they could steal their sound?

  • @devistatedbeaver I- Yes. Modest Mouse gladly gave the shins their sound.

    I hope you are not musically inclined because you have a lot to learn.

  • @raindropxkisses Raindropkisses? Really? I'm getting told off by someone who's name is raindropkisses. Ride a unicorn on outta here already. What the fuck would you know about music? The "My little pony" song doesn't count.

  • @devistatedbeaver I know enough to know that a lot of bands sound the same, and why wouldn't you like a band that sounds as good as modest mouse? Your close-minded, and it's sad that you resorted to making fun of my youtube screen name as if I cared. And the "My Little Pony" theme is a piece that someone composed and therefore DOES count.

  • @raindropxkisses How can you tell someone that you don't even know that they are closed minded. Thinking the Shins are just another generic knock-off band doesn't make me closed minded. Ill try anything. I just tried the Shins and wasn't impressed so I stated my opinion. If you don't care that I made fun of your name then why did you bring it up? You can create a new account if you want to get rid of that weak ass name. It is free after all.

  • @devistatedbeaver i didn't bring it up, you did. i'd love to continue this one-sided conversation considering you are an intolerable tool, but i took an arrow to the knee.

  • @raindropxkisses Oh god the arrow to the knee shit? You too? And YOU are calling ME a tool? Its not my fault you don't understand music. The Shins are not worth a shit. I'd rather listen to Nickelback or Papa Roach. Now that's real music. Not like this pussy bullshit. These guys are whiners not rockers. They should call themselves the Shams not the Shins.

  • @devistatedbeaver I'm a huge Shins and Modest Mouse fan...and I don't hear that whatsoever. The Shins have a completely different sound from Modest Mouse.

  • @pearljammer13 Naw all that bullshit sounds the same. Mouse, The Shins, Spoon...all of em. And by the way, Eddie Vedder is a no talent piece of shit who rode the coat tails of Nirvana to stardum.

  • @devistatedbeaver Well the fact that you think Modest Mouse, The Shins, and Spoon sound the same destroys any credibility you may have had. And Ten came out before Nevermind. And i just saw that you prefer Nickelback to The Shins. hahahahahahahahahahahahaha. End of argument.

  • @devistatedbeaver Waiwaitwait. Huh? Mouse and the shins are similar cause therye good. If you think they sound the same, you aren't listening.

  • @pearljammer13 The fact that this needs to be said at all makes me very, very sad.

  • THE SHINS......so hot right now.

  • James Mercer's mum sucks dick for crack.

  • I thought caring was creepy,

    then I got an arrow to the knee

  • @BENGTPAPPA and when i visited australia on a phantom limb :D

  • @BENGTPAPPA I was going to make an arrow to the knee joke

    And then I didn't...because I'm not an unoriginal idiot.

  • @BENGTPAPPA I used to think arrow to the knee jokes were funny, but then I took a slap to the brain.

  • @mixify1 if you don't think arrow to the knee jokes are funny then why are you yourself making one. Any 'I used to ___ then I ___ ' jokes are arrow to the knee jokes.

  • @BENGTPAPPA I used to make internet references,

    then I remembered not to whore out irrelevant jokes for likes.

  • @crotalus47 you are still making an arrow to the knee joke so don't pretend you are any better

  • ZzzzzzZzzzzzz  lift music

  • It reminds me of Animal Nitrate by Suede. Really!

  • Check out the caroline movement on reverb nation!

  • We-eee didn't start the flame war!!! Great collegehumor vid, btw

  • Havent heard this song in forever. Its still fucking awesome. all hail shins!

  • THE SHINS!<3

  • @guccigirlburr reminds me*

  • I'm pretty sure Oh, Inverted World is one of the best albums to ever be recorded ever in the history of music okay bye

  • This is definitely probably the best song ever.

  • quit commenting and listen to the fucking song, its worth it. and if your done listening to the song.... wtf, never be done with this song, get arrested for abusing replay buttons.

  • @pinpoint45 It's the short for Indiana Jones.

  • Wow...it's really annoying like seriously there a pages and pages of people going back and forth...if you don't like gtfo and go listen to Hot Chelle Rae while the rest of us sit around the campfire, roast marshmellows and listen to magic :)

  • @AshleyTisdaleFan2145 Or roast some herb.. ;)

  • the shins aren't good because their indie or hipster, they're good because its a group of artists that really want to play good music and they do just that.

  • @pinpoint45 Haha, you said Indie.

    Wuts dat?

  • ok, even the most stuck up, backwards-wearing hat, unnaturally small dog loving, pop freak has to admit that this is freaking good band.

  • Garden State brought me to a garden-variety of new amazing music

  • The Shins are great, okay? Let's leave it at that

  • @maddielovestoshop Good idea :)

  • @maddielovestoshop This shit is terrible

  • @anaemontreal then dont listen to it and get off this song

  • @anaemontreal why are you on this video then..

  • I am from New Jersey, garden state is an ehh film. I love this song beyond words though.

  • i like the shins very much!

  • That band sucks

  • The word hipster is just one of those things like calling people posers a couple years ago. It will fade and soon be forgotten.

  • why is everyone talking about hipster/indie crap or whatever what why is any of that relevant at all to this why do you even care it's totally creepy........................­.............................

    this is a brill song ok stop being silly or i'll kick you

  • this is shit ! i'm off listen to Justin Bieber

  • @SqueezeThisPlease me too!

  • @SqueezeThisPlease whoa, whoa, whoa u call this stuff shit? teehee . . . hypocrite . . .

  • Don't know what makes the Shins so good. Just can't describe it. :)

  • I don't know anybody who likes the same sorts of things I do or is interested in the same things as I am. I don't do it purposefully, I just have always been a weird person. I think creating a fad around supposedly being unique is lame, because I've encountered such "hipsters" and was treated like I wasn't "in the know"...I think fads, trends, all that is ridiculous. What happened to doing whatever you wanted and listening to what you wanted without being judged? It's all such a silly fuss.

  • sight unseen.

  • RWARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR I'M ARGUING ON YOUTUBE!@!@LK!J@IL!@J!LI@J

  • This shit is terrible.

  • @anaemontreal what you listening to then?

  • ?!?!?

  • Personally, I think there is no such thing as being 'Hipster'. It is about being yourself, doing your own thing and essentially not conforming... So you can't really say who is and who isn't a 'Hipster', if such a thing really does exist

    Therefore if any of you fucks out there actually give two shits, then shutup and just do your own thang. And as they say 'let the haters hate' ..whatever

  • @6metal6hammer6 no. Hipsters are hypocritical kids trying to find out who they are. They are just as bad as jocks, bros, douchebags.

  • @6metal6hammer6 No. I wouldn't call someone who doesn't conform a hipster. I'd call someone who doesn't conform merely for the sake of non conforming a hipster. I don't think any hipsters are being themselves, they're just following some stupid fad.

  • This song was meant to be in Transworld's Sight Unseen

  • OH THESE SQUAWKING BIRDS WON'T QUIT! BUILDING NOTHING, LAYING BRICKS.

  • @hollyh0x What, so they're useless? Not at all :)

  • IL them :)

    My Dad listened to them a lot so I did too haha :33

  • Dude, Who gives a rats ass!! Hipster, indie, whatever.. Way to many labels, GOOD MUSIC IS GOOD MUSIC. Who cares if 1 person, or 1 million people dig it..If it creates emotion or feeling in your own body then Rock on!!! Way too much polotics, Let good music speak for itself!!!!!!! PEACE.

  • Lmfao The Shins aren't indie/hipster/whatever. They are just The Shins :) brilliantly unique.

  • So stonnnnnnnnnnned

  • @Irish16King youre fucking cool

  • You're both idiots! Stop assuming frighin' stereotypes, don't be a racist, and learn to be decent human beings.

  • If you're reading comments, you're doing it wrong.

  • S I G H T - U N S E E N

  • Sam Roth and Maggie Stiefvater brought me here..and I love this music! :o

  • i found out about the shins threw the movie garden state

  • @bloverblah *through

  • @bloverblah You better be sorry faggot ass bitch, its people like you coming into my country that don't know how to spell that steal our jobs, i hate. Almost as much as black peoplez

  • @IanTy95 sir you are talking to a black guy, please calm down before i kick your ass. i bet i know where you live. rio rancho new mexico, your name is ian rollinson and you skateboard with gay kids like isaac lopez

  • @bloverblah Im talking to a black guy?

  • guys, you don't understand. I might be drunk, but I just wish everyone loved the shins like i do. you dont get it, they;re my favorite band, okay? okay guys, lets all just sit and listen to how fucking amazing they are. okay thanks, deuces.

  • @MrDan1251 your a funny ass drunk :3

  • @MrDan1251 Hahaha awesome

  • I suddenly feel okay with myself.

  • Comment removed

  • I haven't been able to stop listening to the Shins for about a month now. Seeing them live last week has only made it worse. It's the best problem I've ever had. This song in particular I could listen to on repeat for hours and never get sick of it. A magical band they are.

  • @pearljammer13 I saw them last week too. I'm guessing you were at Deluna fest in Pensacolsa? They are AWESOME. They WERE awesome. They will ALWAYS be awesome.

  • @romadinstr Pensacola*

    

  • @romadinstr I actually saw them in Boston. It was great they played almost every song I really wanted to hear...the only two they didn't were fighting in a sack and red rabbits. They opened with this which was beyond awesome.

  • Yeah I'm not going to lie, I've been listening to this song for probably 5 or so years because my dad listened to it, and I had no idea it was Indy. I didn't even know what a hipster was until last year and I would say it's the hipsters who are the most mainstream right now... It's such a joke, I can't even go to a record store without being self-conscious about looking like a hipster because they have such a bad name. I hope it all dies down soon...

  • I really try to listen to indie music because I like the way it sounds, but pretentious assholes usually push me away from most of it. It isn't until the buzz and hype around the bands dies down do I actually feel comfortable enough to listen to them. Shut up with this "Hipster/not Hipster" shit. I didn't even know what a hipster was until sometime last year. What's the point in arguing over music?

  • @MordaciousFilms I love your comment. I feel that way all the time.

    Modest Mouse for example are one of the greatest American bands of all time, easily, but they have some of the biggest douchebag fans that I almost hate to say that I love them. It's really unfortunate...

    Pretentious hipsters need to get kicked in the nuts and get over themselves.

  • @MordaciousFilms IKR? I hate it when people think that if you like indie music, you automatically are a hipster. Ugh, stupid stereotypes. I just wanna listen to some nice music. -.-

  • @MordaciousFilms Very well said! I'm getting tired of every video on YouTube, regardless of content, turning into some sort of argument. Can we all just not appreciate good music? and yeah...I think the word 'hipster' should be outlawed, I've never really had any idea what it means :L

  • @MordaciousFilms

    neither did I until I was called one, after searching for the meaning I cant see the insult. I think those pretentious people who think their music, books and films are better than everyone's should be called snobs, not hipsters. I´ve also met many people who say they are into indie music because its not commercial. I wish this kind of music was what sells, so that more similar songs where made.

  • Comment removed

  • makes me think of times spent in my beast friend's basement tripping, we called it the golden disc

  • all the good songs from 2004 - 2008 make me think of my ex. Dammit.

  • yay music

  • great lyrics

  • indie fags it's just chill wave which is just copying the 60's to 80's sound. GAAAYYY

  • shins fans, check it out... go to reverbnation . com / thehumanorchestra

  • i didnt thought i would like this band they are pretty good

  • I don't care about anyone, but people still think I'm creepy :s

  • And so started my fantastic Shins journey.

  • goth milk ^_^

  • so it goes...

  • god the Shins are great. those keyboards. everything about it.

  • As soon as I hear this song start it never fails to lift my mood, even if I'm already in a good one. No better way to spend a half hour than listening to this album.

  • great song, where my stoners at?

  • I first saw this video two years ago. Back then it had less than 100,000 views. Years later, the Shins finally have the recognition they deserve!

  • this is my favorite song ever!
