Cursive - The Recluse

[ufoDanceParty]

I've listened to them so much I now read their name as 'reCursive'

[chicabobica]

Top 10 albums of all time, in my opinion.

[bright3yes187]

He just left for work and I'm lying in his bed. I feel like this song is my life right now. "and I could hardly get my out of the bed for fear of never lying in this bed again. Oh Christ I'm not that desperate. Oh no. Oh god. I AM."

[AimeeDewick]

The first Cursive song I heard <3

[waleedtheweirdo]

well that was a masterpiece

[XxSicInsanityxX]

[caridehome]

[TheGreeneyedgirl21]

[rccar]

guitar and violin and sleigh bells aside... the bass in this song is fucking perfect... and i never say that cause.. its the bass.

[YouWantMeYouCantPay]

classic

[forthenotes]

kasher's a fuckin emotional genius.

[taylordize]

@forthenotes an "emotional genius" the fuck...?

[ntmcrossley]

LOVE CURSIVE! Check out my videos-great music:)

[TheSonofthemorning]

haha.. rift

[Silvade14]

That guitar rift is just awesome!

[echoesbrando]

haha! the guy's expression at 2:02 is awesome.

[xrawrbiexrotten]

This is how I like my music and videos! I saw someone do a really bad bid for this and thought it was the official. This goood!

[FreezeMyLife]

Whoa.

Like....

Whoa.

[TheMrManoman]

My teacher told me I need to learn cursive. I told her she needed to fucking listen to cursive.

[linktothevan]

"My ego's like my stomach,

it keeps shitting what I feed it."

Amazing.

[moonbrains]

My ego's like my stomach,

it keeps shitting what I feed it

[Holktube]

The bassline is love.

[AYEMang]

I remember getting into cursive back in the 6th grade. I mostly listen to underground hip-hop now, but cursive's "The Ugly Organ" was the first album I listened to when i was first discovering good music.

[rutahell]

This song is amazing, but after watching the video it reminds me of Lullaby by The Cure....anyone else see/hear it?

[AnnaBackhaus]

Love this! 

[TheSkankyD]

This is quite possibly the best Cursive song ever!!!!!!!!!!!

[celestexcore94]

@TheSkankyD it's all about from the hips;)<3.

[Wiggibow]

Omaha, NE ayyyyyyyyy

[Mars7Stars]

..My Ego Is Like My Stomach, It Keeps Shitting What I Feed It...

[DesmonJones]

Pesky vampires

[tuggernuts6432]

Hmm. A bit of a weird ending, but it fits the lyrics said.

A pretty interesting music video.

[Roysterman]

Saw them last night and they were amazing

[bareentertainment]

Saw them live a while back, they were amazing.

[Clone1138]

I got to see them in Tallahassee, they played this song. Every single person in the audience was singing their hearts out!

[carebearstare777]

they are EXcellent live. I'm going to the cursive/alkaline trio show on friday!!!! weeeeeeee!!

[carebearstare777]

they are excellent live. I'm going to see the alkaline trio / cursive show on friday!! weeeeeeee!!

[drainzmidget]

they are opening for alkaline trio in march i hope they are good live

[nevin540]

@drainzmidget They are Amazing live.

[drainzmidget]

i hope so, im really only there to see alkaline trio though...

[marley1sg]

@drainzmidget im going to see them on saturday, alkaline with cursive and the dear n departed

[drainzmidget]

i saw them last night in clifton park, i didnt like the dear n departed or cursive, but alkaline trio was amazing

[TheOnlyxOne88]

I saw them with Trio in Hartford last month, they were trippy as hell but they were kinda cool. Trio was fucking nuts though

[skkankpants]

I can never get enough of this song.

[abeyantbirds]

this used to be one of my jams when i was younger. i loved it very much ... i still love it :)

[shaiinar]

THIS SONG.

[Somethingpower]

true i didnt know the lyrics before those, it works out really nicely actually

[gaara2gourd]

I love how they through that cello (base?) in there. It REALLY adds.

[Somethingpower]

it would be better that way

[Rickstatharappa]

nah it wouldn't It wouldn't make sense with the lyrics. He says "I'm not that desperate, oh no oh god I am." Alone wouldn't really fit.

[Somethingpower]

alone.oh god.i am.

[MrNeffneller1]

AHHH mazing! i love how jenny lewis sings on this!

[LunaticQuutamo]

they sound pretty nice! :)

[lpapii92]

[velvetyblackroses]

[JGrabes]

Cool song. Reminds me a lot of The Cure's Lullaby...

[beatofthestreets]

damn i totally forgot about this bad ass song

[nathansteveramirez]

i wake alone in a womans room i hardly know haha sounds like my life

[Sponger500]

my ego's like my stomach, it keeps shitting what i feed it :)

[indieb0hemian]

[MagicCowWtf]

Great great lyrics

[twibblejazz]

Nice song. The guy from the faint is awesome in this vid!

[Squishy876]

My favorite song.

[eldaino]

and isnt the guy in this vid todd from the faint?

[eldaino]

maybe their greatest song?

[thestory1990]

no, the greatest song that's ever been written..

[Dipsetinstrum]

instantly in love with this song

sexy video

[lamelamelame]

is anyone here going to be at their cleveland show on the 17th?

[lamelamelame]

has anyone here seen cursive recently (happy hollow or after)? do you know if they play any ugly organist at the show or do they only play happy hollow?

[standardyarn]

yeah they'll always play older stuff. depending on when they play, the may play some more newer stuff, but there's always a good balance.

[adanespimp]

they play this song, red handed sleight of hand and some others off of ugly organ. But they tend to do a fair amount of songs of all their most recent albums.

[festivusavenger]

Last time I saw them they didn't play The Recluse. They did however play a great deal of the old stuff. And then my friend who saw them a week later said they did play this song. I guess they just make a new set list every night.

[dreadawn]

how did i end up here to begin with.....?

[KillBillHarcus]

i don't know.

[rxysurfbum07]

why do I start what I can't finish?

[standardyarn]

those riffs are the background noise to all my dreams

[minusthebearlotus]

this video doesnt justify the song

[spaulding625]

agreed

[tremulant2388]

Kinda cool: That's Todd Fink from the Faint.

[astralflower11]

you are in my web now~

[77Grim77]

this band is so amazing... nothing can come close to describing their superior ability to make art.

[JaDeDhOnEy]

oops forgot to rate ;)

[JaDeDhOnEy]

Cant get over this song...Its amazing and the quality is fucking awesome...it brings to light the shadow for which ALL of us have...maybe its just hard for some people to accept that ♥

[roxygamer007]

I like this video, I'm not very sure why people are trying to bring it down,and Todd Fink is there.

[CaffeineWhore]

Cursive stands for the Cure.

[BesosnotBombs]

New Favorite!

kinda sums up how I'm feeling right now

(except for the waking up in a random woman's bed)

[front00]

Uh, this is the only good cursive song.

[moniquedesha]

you need to listen to more cursive.

[warnakey]

have you heard any of their other stuff??

[Deepressiveaholic]

no shit ? try cursive - bad sects or cursive - driftwood a fairy tale ? u really an idiot ma' maaaan

[topler10]

I like the video. I don't understand why people are hating on it?

[kakapooh]

video does the song an injustice!

[tigregirl18]

i like both... :)

[opeth234]

[Finger2212]

I LOVE the frigging dancing skeleton people

[myowndior]

[ocelot92]

[princetonian609]

excellent

[271W4]

the couple of notes on the bass at the end is just awesome

[chubbychibi]

I agree.. I love the entire song.. If I had to settle on a favorite song.. This very well might be it.
