I'm proud to say I had Bear hands play my very small & short lived event space in Brooklyn a few years ago. I'm glad you guys are still going strong. Williamsburg White Room, RIP.

[Kthwaits50]

Does anyone know where I've heard this before? Has it been in a movie or commercial or something? Maybe a video game..? It's going to kill me if I don't find out so if someone could help me out it'd be greatly appreciated.

[skateland12345]

@Kthwaits50 skins on mtv?

[Burningcloudsinc]

Totally random but I wish Youtube had a hive-five button for when you find something awesome

[ericagarcia838]

Love it I mean haha

[ericagarcia838]

Lobe it!!

[juswolf22]

what kind of genre is this music labeled? and what are some other artist u guys recommend?

[Joegreen29]

Why do so many people support a comment like the Britney Spears one? As though there is no middle ground of music between Bear Hands and Britney Spears? Please. That's fucking stupid.

[theycallmehipster]

best part about this video is the guy in the poncho drinkin a 40 and shooting roman candles. hes not committing crimes, hes just havin a good time

[ProzacStylings]

@theycallmehipster

Fireworks are illegal in a few states, broseph

[yolarachel]

1:31 KISS ME LIKE THAT

[thestonedtimes420]

@yolarachel but it looks like he is kissing a passed out druggie? thats fucking disgusting

[greenakutabi]

I was singing along after 30 seconds. If this ain't the catchiest damn song . . .

[glassjaw00]

everybody debating on whether or not this is good or bad is an idiot. it's all relative, dipshits; music is subjective, everyone's opinion is right when it comes to tastes.

[Dmills9]

The simplicity in it is what makes it a good song. It's got that easy riding beat, yo. You don't have to be playing quick guitar like a metal head to be a good guitarist. You really just need to feel and hear what you're playing in order to understand and respect it. Sometimes its nice just to sit and listen to your guitar or any other instrument resonate. Listening to all the overtones and such... Music is a wonderful part of life.

[subpolarity]

also I can't wait till this song is remixed

[retrojoke]

nice song

[MegaLeeharvey]

very nice......very

lov it lov it

[MegaLeeharvey]

very nice......very

[cooIbeans]

hey if you disliked this video can you explain to me why? i don't understand how someone who enjoys good music can dislike this..

[acdcgnr100]

@cooIbeans Becase this simpily isn't good music. It's more of a disgrace to good music. That's why.

[localnatiive]

Everybody knows that crime pays, and everybody does it. Everybody knows that crime pays, and everybody loves it, everybody loves it.

[thismortalday]

This song was almost too good. Crime doesn't pay.

[thismortalday]

This song was almost too good.

[s14sr240silvia]

ahh bearhands:)

[LillyLavine]

skins :)

[egrod11]

Fuck Hipsters !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BrynGamez]

@egrod11 descent to the haters.

[pspabp]

some1 should make a dubstep version of this

ps. vevo i fucking hate u

[amoebazebra420]

@pspabp Please no. Dubstep would ruin this song.

[BeaverDAMage]

1:07- Mike Tyson cameo.. thumbs up!

[JLawr679]

2:24 - Niko my cousin lets go bowling

[Musicfreaklolduh]

Holy Crap i stumbled upon this and i was like oh no this is going to be horrible ! Man was i surprised !!! This is ah-mazing

[iaintnowasteman]

Fucking Advertisements! Boo VEVO

[lp42884life]

@helenatorr ... definitely mainstream music sucks more. But hipster musak is almost there. R u a ptown girl?

[helenatorr]

I don't know what's worse... hipster music or mainstream music.

[TOBIdoesntNEEDaHUG]

@helenatorr What other choice do you have? Goth metal and punk emo?

[n23f]

Bear Hands is a cool name :)

[FUZZYFORKS]

nice joint, slightly freekin roxxxx------ It could use some remixx tweeks where it winds up n jams for a few minutes. When u xpect it n it doesnt happen you think they fell short a little trying 2 b safe. Iz rock safe?

[MrSamuelHill]

gay robot

[ShaunaEmm]

Why can't anyone just enjoy the song and stop bitching?

That'd be nice :)

[britanyleann]

Minus all these people fighting I like this song :)

[josiahmorris]

SCREW THE HIPSTERS. I LOVE THIS SONG!

[kilacitrus]

@charlotteLsometimes wait, like u were just watching the video and didnt notice the music?

[CharlotteLsometimes]

is it bad that i finaly relized that there was music playing 2 min. into the video?

[jimecristos6]

There is alot of good music magnetic man ft. John legend. Mite have spelled it wrong but its another example that if ur still "in the cut" ur taste is stale as a year old saltine cracker

[jimecristos6]

Sorry bro u obviously don't listen to much rap if u don't know much how can u do much u defend wiz u already lost .... burn one and throw on dat big krit hometown hero... peace love and music

[BoomBoomAudioDance]

I am a Indie listener who listens to different type of Indie music such as Indie rap... I like this, because there are some funk and some voicing that I don't hear usually and relieves my stress from those Indie love songs. Be happy it's in the 100,000 not in the millions.... I like the guy in 1:35....

[MrJazzyjeff510]

@BoomBoomAudioDance Shut up.

[BoomBoomAudioDance]

@MrJazzyjeff510 In terms of what?

[BoomBoomAudioDance]

@BoomBoomAudioDance Do you want me to explain the comment you removed?



[MrJazzyjeff510]

@BoomBoomAudioDance YOu know what? Put it back up. Go for it.

[BoomBoomAudioDance]

@MrJazzyjeff510 Well in your post it sounded like there was no such thing as IndieMusic. I'm pretty sure ilisten to indie music , there's no way for me not to hear it. ihave idiot friends who thinks there's just IndieRock, that is why ihave to clarify there's other types, everytime people just mention IndieRock, anyways I wouldn't categorize this as IndieRock, since icompare it with just Rock and it's not like rock. Mostly Alternative, since that's were they are mostly featured in, or maybe not.

[MrJazzyjeff510]

@BoomBoomAudioDance No, of course there is such a thing as indie music. I just hate it when idiots like you try to brandish themselves as "indie". I don't care if you listen to indie music or not. Just shut up. You make yourself sound like you're trying to justify to yourself that by listening to indie music that you're better than everybody.

[BoomBoomAudioDance]

@MrJazzyjeff510 It's much better than being called hipsters.. But I won't take labels, sometimes I think that the music is more original than the others but then we have them artist that mostly do remixes, or don't play live. But then they bash Indie music as the worst in music history. I'm not better than everybody, not in drawing and not in certain subjects. I'm a procrastinator, if I'm that, then I am not good with time.

[MyJunior1975]

I kinda like this song...but then again, I'm an indie rock fan, so I'm a little biased...

[taylornicolie]

My new favorite song!

[squizz222]

Song's alright.

[NobodyMinds21]

Oh hello, MGMT.

[betty3269]

how about this one WHO GVES A FUCK? -betty

[pspabp]

that video was the shit

[cuter64]

not the most sophisticated song is it? also since im itred of the "true rock" and "real music" debates im just going to say it. there is nothing wrong with people who like lincoln park or any mainstream music its just many people think they are somehow more intelligent or better because they choose to listen to non mainstream music and hate on people who like it. this is sad :(

[HolyMountainGuy]

@cuter64 You say this isn't sophisticated? Try looking the scales for the song and playing it? You do not appreciate the complexity of the music because you don't play any instruments. And a big reason why people don't like "mainstream" music is because all these big name bands want to continue to be on the top of the charts, so they pump out music like an assembly line, When a truly good song comes in it's own time.

[seewuh]

Since when do you need to be talented to hate things? I have no talent, and I still think this sucks.

[Benoka]

@acdcgnr100 Sweet! You must be really talented, to make such an arrogant claim! Make a better song and upload it, please? Get back to me when you do.

[acdcgnr100]

this is not real music, this takes NO talent to make and it sounds like shit. This is for women....

[MrJazzyjeff510]

@acdcgnr100 What is your idea of real music?

[morgankuehn]

@acdcgnr100 Why is 'not real music' for women? Idiot.

[acdcgnr100]

@morgankuehn Music takes actual talent to make. This doesnt.

[Tamfict23]

i love this band.

[3seedybhavior]

fucking amazing

[zombiepartyzooxp]

ok i understand the majority of people who dont like or understand this video, thats why vevo is recomending you to go watch the premier of britney spears, thats the type of shity music you people really enjoy after all right?.

[LeBeastee]

@zombiepartyzooxp Haha the video's not hard to understand...the song's pretty lame though..

[DonaldoOsbornez]

@zombiepartyzooxp

At least she doesn't sound constipated

[acdcgnr100]

@zombiepartyzooxp No i dont like it because it is TERRIBLE sounding. Not because i dont get it. It also takes NO skill to create. And i listen to Rock and Blues. You fail

[zombiepartyzooxp]

@acdcgnr100 I listen to rock and blues also but for some reason i enjoy listening to this song in particular, all music requires some type of skill and creativity, So no buddy YOU FAIL and have a nice day xD

[acdcgnr100]

@zombiepartyzooxp Actually no, this doesn't take skill. This is a disgrace to music.

[subpolarity]

@acdcgnr100 lol you're 15 shut the fuck up.

[acdcgnr100]

@subpolarity How is my age rellevant? At least I know good music. This is a disgrace to music, I am more musically talented than this whole boy band put together.

[subpolarity]

@acdcgnr100 is that all you know how to say? if you know so much about music you'd give us a Pitchfork-style breakdown of why this isn't good or at least some music theory, not just a feeble THIS AINT GOOD AND I KNOW GOOD. also, now you're saying you're more musically talented? sounds like you need to put your money where your mouth is and prove it.

which you won't do.

also ACDC is boring.

[acdcgnr100]

@subpolarity hahaha this is a disgace to music, end of story. AC/Dc isnt boring, they have got the most stage presence out of any band ive ever seen,......even now that they are in their 50's and 60's...

[acdcgnr100]

@subpolarity There is a reason AC/DC has sold over a hundred million albums and that Back In Black is the highest selling album by any band of all time. And the 2nd highest selling album of all time, where as these guys sell crap.

[subpolarity]

@acdcgnr100 and Hitler also had a huge following back then. Popular isn't always better.

[acdcgnr100]

@subpolarity Hitler was a smart millitary leader and a smart man in general. That's why people followed him. That was early on, before he started the holocaust. At that point it was follow him or die, people didn't want to follow him at that point but everybody was to scared to do anything about it....... So your anology is flawed.

[copper407447]

@acdcgnr100 hitler was borderline retarded and people only followed him because of his charisma the only reason the nazi party made anything work was because of the generals and people in the actual government hitler was a figure head and not much else

[acdcgnr100]

@copper407447 Maybe you should brush up on your history....

[Fyropyro420]

@copper407447 your either trolling really smartly or just plain borderline retarded yourself

[NoDramaDramaClub]

@zombiepartyzooxp  hahaha!

[NoDramaDramaClub]

@zombiepartyzooxp Hahahaha!

[obeykiddodee]

<3

[kids0of9veraddo]

Talk about wanting to make love to yourself for hours listening to this over and over again.

[jrocka1313]

@kids0of9veraddo what does ur sn mean? it looks interesting.

[kids0of9veraddo]

@jrocka1313 lolwut:o

[Deke101]

LOL. I keep complaining how music sucks today so someone told me to listen to THIS. Wow. I stand by my previous opinion.

[orlyhousesoccer]

1:08 GO FOR THE EAR!!

[oddfigure]

The person who wrote this shitty song clearly committed a CRIME.

[MegaCraving]

This was on my suggestions page -_-... this is horrible.

[ateabigredcandle]

this song is catchy as hell. Im not a hipster and I can enjoy it.

[Thewhiteandorange]

this is crap.. so yes, clearly crime does pay.

[Brandon75689]

at first i was indifferent. but then i really liked this especially that they have it in hd :P

[azamystic]

Bear hands have a vevo? Oh man, the hipsters are gonna be PISSED. Haha.

[fwahstatus]

@azamystic LOL

[willissippi]

@azamystic I was just thinking the same thing when I saw that Drink Up Buttercup has a vid on here...

[legrandeframage]

@azamystic im pissed -.-

[TheRiteOne100]

@azamystic they have done it to a lot of our music

[SmallpoxRot]

This has to stop. I can't take anymore "arty" fucks churning out hipster-grabbing music anymore. It's almost as bad as Bieber and Rebecca Black and all that shit. So many bands are trying so hard and coming up short. I'm sure Bear Hands will fool many of the more naive music fans out there.

Oddly enough, it appears they went to Wesleyan. Looks like I hit the nail on the head. I had no idea, but my judgment was right on.

[adamfitz22]

@SmallpoxRot

you're a fucking idiot, if you don't like this video or the band- fuck off. no one here wants your bitching.

[SmallpoxRot]

@adamfitz22 I guess I'm passionate about good music. Eat shit friend.

[SmallpoxRot]

@adamfitz22 Hey, at least you like SOME good music. Interpol, The Walkmen, Toro y Moi, The XX. Good choices.

[mrjcfromcalifornia]

Great video.

[TheThompson57]

He got braces and his teeth are wide as shit. haha

[wicketts16]

@TheThompson57 Thats why.

[XpumpkinheadXhearseX]

what was so illegal about the ginger welding?

[PlutoMute]

@XpumpkinheadXhearseX Either it's a chop shop, or the people who did his teeth jipped him. I'm still trying to figure it out.

[zombiepromqueen123]

it took me 3 seconds to relize that the girl on the bus was knocked out

[iceskater204498]

@zombiepromqueen123 but she was moving

[zombiepromqueen123]

@iceskater204498 no he was moving her

[jimecristos6]

Love this song and video fuck rock fuck rap this is all i wanna hear all damn day ya don't like this don't watch/ listen.. go put ur godsmack/wiz khalifa on and die a rotten flatulent death

[cuter64]

@jimecristos6 i ike this song to but there is no need to hate on rap man. i love wiz khalifa

[Katamotoka]

<3 i wouldn't be surprised if this song got famous<3

[keyseric]

Dear Vevo,  Let me start by sayin get your fuckin corporate asses off youtube! Ever since these big companies started paying off youtube so they could post their fucking videos we can't post ours. We are flagged for infringement evry time we include a song we like in our videos.

This is YOUtube, the place where we can post OUR videos. If we wanted to listen to music from you we"d go to your fuckin stupid ass website.

COPY AND PASTE TO ALL VEVO VIDEOS! THUMBS UP!

[smipth]

@keyseric always been like that.

[makethebang]

i don't think the songs message is as it seems... it almost seems sarcastic. maybe satirical?

[vansrok1]

@makethebang I think you are overanalyzing

[vivianvortecksx]

Husky!

[MrMitchthegreat]

[samiadinos]

don't love crime. but i do love this song. though i don't really support the message. not to be naive, but doing the wrong things is easy, but doing it the right way. is ten times harder.

[jimecristos6]

All i know is ... i gotta lotta ballz

[thicklines]

@flashthedash lol not only do I not understand what any of this means but I'm pretty sure your statistics are complete bullshit, I just think your one big goof

[PotentialGrows]

Seem like we all seeking attention?.. am i one in a million?..maybe or maybe not..hmm..yeah,yeah,yeahh..all i know is that i want what i want..do anyone know what they really want?.. end of story..see you, and you..yes you..around my town..:)

[YoAdrianWTFareUdoing]

I like the statement that they are making with this video. Makes you think. :(

[ljag101202]

1:32-1:46... Turn onnnnnnnn .

[forsakenraver]

@ljag101202 if thats all it takes to turn you on, then im sorry, and thats all i can say without being a dick

[ljag101202]

@forsakenraver Dude stfu it was a joke .

[forsakenraver]
