  • add vid to my fav, thanx.

  • Padma Lakshmi is a goddess

  • Do all Indian women age so beautifully like Padma Lakhsmi? My goodness...

  • -3

  • It's hard to be me. It's even harder to enjoy being me.

  • I know it's not a fit idea, but I just thought of Brian Wilson.

  • thats how santa should ve looked like when young

  • Hey that's Bobby Jr.!

  • Danke für den Upload. Geile Musik, trauriges Video. Fuehle mich da momentan zu Hause ;)

  • Never write a song before kneeling at the altar of Everett.

  • 18 PEOPLE DIDNT GET THAT LOOK GOOD SONG BRO

  • saw them at titp at the weekend, they're one of my mate's favourite bands but i'd never really given them a real listen. this song though was amazing though. one of the guys i met there said he wasnt gonna go see Eels because they were too sad, but their set was jubilant and celebratory. even this song was played in such a way as to give some hope, as though, hey things are bad, but just fucking dance and get through it. every lyric in this song is completely relatable to me. consider me a fan.

  • Beards are cute, but dogs are cuter<3

  • When she says 'Puppy' at 2.52 - GOD DAMN!!!!!!

  • @sillyshiv It´s Bobby, the E dog.

  • The song should be renamed to "That look you give that dog", lawl :P

  • Holy beard :D

  • Moral: take your glasses off before you go to sleep.

  • hothothothothothot

  • Eels are REAL MUSIC

  • this video made my day and its only 9:39am

  • hahaaha i love this video soooo much. And the song....is perfect.

  • i just can't stop listening to this music :')

  • excellent le majordome!

  • sehr geiles Video!

  • Story of my life

  • DOG IS BRILLIANT.

  • Don't you just hate when the ( dream) girl your kissing turns out to be your dog! Amazing video as always! This is also the second time he's slipped his book into a video.

  • @pharmross what do you mean by "he's slipped his book into a video??"

  • @gerry17sunshine He means, this is the second time Eels have put out a music video that includes E's autobiography.

    In this video, E holds it up to Padma Lakshmi at the outdoor dinner table. It's funny because he's trying to show off his literature skills to her. (I also loved how he opens a page in his own book and nods with approval)

  • @pharmross

    What's the first?

  • haha this is so cute with the dog!

  • so damn true

  • thats his autobiography he takes out at the table,

  • this vid rocks on so many levels

  • I have such a hard on for that beard.

  • This is great.

  • this video is hilarious. looks like the under dog remains as such. poor bobby jr. :(

  • i hate these dogs that always steel my girlfriends

  • ¿Por qué esta canción me gusta tanto, carajo?

  • What is it with lyical genius' and the ability to grow facial hair?

  • @BigBruinekool Hmm... there does seem to be a padern here

  • I love E's face when she's kissing him. And I wish so much that she is real!

  • This video is perfect. How wrecked little things like these can make you feel.

  • i love E's facial expression when the butler opens the bottle of wine

  • Beard!

  • that look you give that girl I wanna see

    looking right at me

    if I could be that girl, instead of me

    I'd never let you down

    :(

  • dig the hound's expression @ 1:19

  • Fall on your knees to Padma. She is the Goddess.

  • Damn, so sad song, so funny and giving thinking video!

  • what a great song.

  • If I could be that guy, Instead of me.

  • So Nice Melody~I love it!!

  • Who is finding this song and then clicking on 'Dislike'. Fucking lunatics.

  • Both song and video are just brilliant, its a breath of fresh air among some crappy music we have our days

  • Eels and Tegan & Sara are proof that Paul Westerberg-esque heart on a sleeve songwriting is NOT dead!

  • This song deserves more attention, music like this needs to be on our radios and televisions, in the charts, not the same recycled crap we're subjected to day after day.

  • Padma  <3

  • That dog is so lucky xD

  • @monadasmoinas It gets to kiss the bearded man? :D

  • I have been a fan of Eels for about 11 years now...and after hearing all of Mark's solo stuff and Eels stuff, to me, this is kind of the quintessential Eels song and video. The whole worldview and everything. I think it's brilliant.

  • Padma Lakshmi is just delicious!

  • What a great video, is that really his study/estate if so im not suprised. PS Bobby Jr is to damn cute.

  • Thumbs up for E to guest host Top Chef!!!

  • Beard down, suit up!

  • A veert good song and sound!! He's a geest singer and textwriter too.

  • i love me some eels :)

  • I like the part when E shows his book to Padma and Padma shows her book to E. Great music video.

  • Bobby Jr has more facial expressions than E! Brilliant Vid!

  • like , how so many said before me , it´s exactly what i´m feeling.

    for over 2 1/2 years.

    I stopped hoping.

    it sounds unlogical, but this song makes my situation become less painfull.

    I just love the eels.

    (sry for my english ^^°)

  • in my dreamworld....... Padma.... mm

  • he speaks out my pain...

  • what a great song. so classic..so real. so simple..

  • lol so this is the video interpretation... well I prefer not having it so literal... haha... humorous video though

  • The Bobby Jr. show

  • bellissimo video!

  • beautiful.only this!!

  • very cool song and video

  • Eels fans, help me out. Mate played me an Eels track a few years ago. I remember part of the lyrics was something about him walking his dog. Ring any bells? Want to find this track again. Cheers.

  • The song could be 'Things the Grandchildren Should Know' It is on the 'Blinking Lights' album. It is also the title of his fantastic autobiography. Well worth a read.

  • things the grandchildren should know by eels, probably

  • Bobby Jr. steals the show again!! Great song and great video, nice one E.

  • I love this video!

  • one thing to say about the beard

    NICE!

  • I think the song reminds me of Candy Says by the Velvet Underground in places..not the lyrics..more the sound

  • Great tune and video! Thanks!

  • Great song, great video, great sense of humour! Thanks E!

  • So ... Mark sleeps in his glasses?LOL

  • I'd take that Cabernet Sauvignon then, thank you...

  • Rare, what a tune, and this more or less happened to me recently, can't stop playin it.

  • i just wanna shave off his beard and give it some poor kid who has no coat. but anyways he is the greatest songwriter i've heard in forever

  • Io adoro quest'uomo. Ho sentito questa canzone, ero in macchina, e ho scoperto la sua musica. E a Gennaio esce un nuovo album! Bye, from Italy

  • NEW ALBUM COMING OUT IN JANUARY!!!! =D

  • Man, I didn't know that Gus was an ace video director too! Good times.

  • D'aww, poor Mr. E, outmanned by Bobby Jr...

  • Sigh, I'd love to go round to E's house for dinner for two. I wouldn't fall asleep!

  • E's look when she ignores him as he's trying to show her "Things the grandchildren should know", classic!

  • He is a funny guy, great video!

  • Reminds me of a boyfriend I had who was nicer to his cat than to me. Didn't last :p

  • ha ha

  • awesome

  • E's a genius.

  • meravigliosa!

  • SO PERFECT! Who the hell is Padma Lakshmi & BOBBY JR is sooooooo cool (thats the dog)

    -Mike 95

  • I really like the beard, E. It gives you this sophisticated/free look. In other words, you look civilized, but you do it with some kind of individuality.

  • Brilliant song; brilliant, touching video.

  • E is an almighty legend! Please let me know if you are playing in Ireland soo.

    Bought the Hombre Lobo on its release date in Ireland..another great piece of work.

    W.Scully
