  • This is NOT a random picture slideshow. This is a "i chose pictures I liked for this song" slideshow.

  • That while the photo selection was kind of random, I feel as though it fits the song so perfectly.

    Love the Postal Service.

    Love this song.

  • This song reminds me of the TV show LOST for some reason.

  • Nice video.

  • whose the guy at the very end? he keeps popping up in the vid, but i don't know who he is.

  • Beautiful, nostalgic, and with that 8-bit sample: this song is a reminder of the video games of our time. Thank you, The Postal Service.

  • 8-bit symphony!

  • i feel better hearing this song

  • its funny because i was watching my school's chorus concert after i had finished performing my part and i heard a nearby camera make a little high pitched beepy noise like 'plink' and all of sudden it reminded me of a postal service song (i think it was this one but i dont remember) and i was like 'wow i need to listen to some postal service now' ;P YAY ELECTRONICAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i heard this song playing on the radio last december 2010 when it was snowing and i was laying in bed.

    this song makes my heart warm when it's such a cold winter. ♥

  • @juliethefnpirate Playing on the radio?!?! WHERE?!?! I want to move where you are!!!!!

  • LOL. Right before they say, "Everything will change" a pic of Hitler pops up.

  • @legwaterlily12 actually it's charlie chaplin in his movie 'the great dictator' which was about hitler, so it's almost an easy mistake to make. 

  • Love love love love love love this song. This band. The random picture slide show :). They remind me of my favorite band ever, I Fight Dragons.

  • The music for this song and his voice amazing.

  • I love the beginning section of this song.... so wish it would of continued and not switched rhythm midway though. Second part is nice too but first was amazing...

  • gotta love charlie chaplin!

  • This song makes everything seem that much more important

  • goose bumps exploded from my skin.

  • This is incredible high.... and sober, but high, it's other-wordly

  • @Ruezz34 It sounds like Death Cab because The Postal Service was a side project Ben Gibbard, the lead singer of DCFC, put together.

  • Wow gets me though

  • WHY does this sound like Death Cab For Cutie???

  • @Ruezz34 Ben gibbard lead singer of both

  • "I'll be the platform shoes, undo what heredity has done to you so you won't have to strain to look into my eyes"

  • I used to listen to this for hours upon hours just laying there staring at the ceiling.

    Thinking of the stars.

  • I want to take you far, from the cynics of this town and kiss you on the mouth. We'll cut our bodies free from the tethers of this scene and start a brand new colony.

    My favorite part.

  • @mabianco39 "mouth" makes me melt everytime... never gets old for me :) this is my bf and I's song- FOR LIFE

  • Comment removed

  • This is such a great song, and the video was well put together. I love the very end snippet especially, all I could think of was, "What a lovely way to end this song." It made me smile, it made my day (and night). Good job.

  • There shouldn't be talk of orgasms on such beautiful music. Be respectful. This music is art, not sex.

  • @MrNathanielJames All music is art. I got your point though. Nicely said.

  • @TheCoolguy7777 yeah man, used to play that game for hours and keep this shit on replay, miss those days for real.

  • This song makes me want to leave everything behind.

  • @HaleyandMeghan1211 i know how you feel

  • The beginning reminds me of Mario

  • anyone else use to jam to this on NHL 2k7?

  • @AdamGoBlue haha thats what brought me to the song i remember those days like it was yesterday man stuff has changed

  • @AdamGoBlue

    YES YES YES ALL FUCKING DAY YES.

  • everything will change uuhuuuuhhhh ...

  • i love this song......at camp we wake up to it every morning

    

  • haha it reminds me of Mario at the beginning

  • @ZombieBuster365 THANK YOU. :D

  • @ZombieBuster365 it's the end of one of the songs in super mario brothers backwards. I believe world 1-1 im so surprised that im the only one i know that knows this fact/

  • @bluetyee lol wow <3

  • @ZombieBuster365 it is

  • DesandNate!

  • This song makes me moist.

  • at :12 is that the beatles?

  • @dukebball126  yup it is=]

  • why is the instrumental SOOOO familiar, like i just heard it an hour ago O_O Please answer this,

  • @xXiTzOpTicNormHDXx

    They may have used the intro to this song in a commercial. The 8-bit tones would be particularly useful for marketers who are selling technology because it stimulates that base Mario Brothers mentality in many people and makes them want to by things to play with. This song is one of the most original tracks I have ever heard. Jimmy probably produced the tune himself, rather than sample the instruments, so I can't think of any other reason you ave heard it.

  • @kton555 no, i just found it. it's from this really good mashup that i listen to like everyday. lol. /watch?v=9v9WJm2Gd-E

  • waiting for this day to come true.

  • I love Death Cab for Cutie, but honestly none of their work even approaches the brilliance of the Postal Service. Ironically, Postal Service is a side project of Death Cab for Cutie. It seems to me it should have been the other way around. This song is genius.

  • @ControlTheBladder Yeah, and so am I. ;D

  • This is the kind of music where, when you find out that somebody else listens to it, you're like "Holy crap! I didn't think anybody knew about them." Seriousely, it's amazing that this music is less heard of than what people listen to now days. But I think that it's the rarity of the listeners that makes finding one that much better.

  • @Raymondb142006 oh you so hipster cuz you listen to da postal service.

  • @Raymondb142006

    sorry to disappoint you but 1000000 listeners isn't that rare...

    anyway this is a very nice song!

  • @Raymondb142006 True that man. :) yay The Postal Service, they rule and this song is so sweet.

  • Des!

  • Love James Dean!

  • Thanks destrey! :D

  • @LizenzLOYD That's the movie Garden State lol

  • NHL 07 brought me here

  • nintendo

  • @aznminr123  hahahaha

  • @aznminr123 Oh the irony.

  • wat movie is that from at 1:42??

  • I listened to this for years and never realized Jenny Lewis was the backup vocalist.

  • I hope the current second highest rated comment stays that way. The irony is just astounding.

  • NHL 2K7

  • found it.

    

  • @flatopguy ...holy shit you assholes really gave me the second highest comment?

    when i made that comment, the second highest comment was like "homos are bad" or something similar to that and equally as stupid and irrelevant.

  • Ha fuck that Beatles picture, they are not shit compared to this.

  • I got this

    Song

    From NHL 7

  • Hi, Nice People.

    Who's the lil' punkert?

    I like his act.

    Pax.

  • The Beatles!

  • This group and Death Cab for Cutie (which this is a side project of the lead singer of) Is a group that have gotten me through some of the hardest times in my life. They taught me how to sing. I listened to them the nights leading up to meeting my wife this song in particular. I have so much to thank them for and I will be going to their concert in Cary, NC on 8/8/11 to celebrate me and my wife's anniversary. I think I have made my point so I will quiet and let you continue to listen to this art

  • @mccaff86 Congrats to you guys. Keep it up!

  • God this songs good for making love and chillen with a girl

  • :20 is that tim mahoney?

  • Only one album???nooooooooo

  • postal service is real. things like owl city are for bitches and money which falls under the catagory of gay. which is were you can find justin bieber and all the other homos

  • Who esle likes the drum part?

  • Best pictures ever. Best song ever.

  • This is brilliant.

  • I cant stop listening to this. I have played it 23 times. no joke.

  • I can always come back to this album when I'm in a bad mood :)

  • @Nolan1009 i feel you man

  • ALBERT NYBERG CALI LEFTOVERS

  • Why The Vines? it doesn't fit.

  • It kinda sucks that TPS only put out one album, but at least it was a great album. There's not one song that I don't like.

  • 0:45 cRAIG!!

  • Zach Braff is the shit and 49 people do not agree.

  • why is there a dislike button?

  • Cool video! What's that song?

  • @PikeN1kes really?

  • Nice song.  anyone know what the picture at 3:04 is of?

  • @ricosuave3355 Grand Canyon?

  • Vagina hats at 0:51

  • This is a really cool video, I like it a lot. It's more than random pictues... it's telling a story.

  • why is owl city constantly compared to TPS in every damn video? they're not comparable

  • haha this song always brings nostalgia.

  • THIS IS MY FUCKING JAM BITCHHH

  • I love Owl City and Postal Service the same, but I didn't come here to brag, I came here to listen to this amazing song.

  • #DYNOMITE TONY

  • Are they aliens?...

  • None of their songs are awful

  • I like this song. how come many of their other song have to be so awful?

  • @suavedude08 that's woody allen

  • NHL 2K7

  • @aznminr123 lol dont you feel clever

  • talk about random

    

  • on a dip with a bowl and my best girl. this is such a great song

  • FALCON KICKKK!!!!! at 0:22

  • Does anybody know who's the dude at 1:29 with the funny glasses?

  • looove this song!!

  • Theoretically speaking, Owl City is far superior musically to The Postal Service, Death Cab for Cutie, and She and Him. So Mr. and Mrs. Gibbard can suck Adam Young's small firefly. Just ask this guy, 2:48.

  • @philligatortears theoretically speaking, you used "theoretically speaking" incorrectly [because there is no theory to anyones opinion] and made yourself look stupid, which you worsened with the latter part of the comment.

  • @philligatortears negative
