I randomly heard this on the radio, and was glad. I am not sure why we have to be hating on people who randomly heard it on TV and were glad. Granted, I don't own a television, so I don't know just how bad Skins or Chuck are (or how good?), but I do know that this band deserves to sell records. The way things get sold is by marketing them, and if television marketing reaches a relevant audience, awesome! Stop being elitist music asshats, and just enjoy the song, however you became aware of it.
@Rindlemoon I agree. But Chuck is actually an amazing show. I would reccomend watching some of the episodes online, (since you say you don't have a television) because hearing this song brings tears to my eyes because of how amazing Chuck actually is. It reminds me of it and how sad I will be when Chuck ends. Because Chuck is currently on it's final season and I cry when I hear this song because I'll miss it. Chuck always introduces me to great songs like this. You should check it out. :)
@TwilightRules33 I completely agreed with you to the point of wondering if, perhaps, you were me in a strange space/time mash up...until I read your screen name.
I've always loved this song, but I appreciate it even more these days because 7 months ago when my (ex)boyfriend and I started dating we decided since we both loved it, that it would be our song. He left last month for college... missing the days of Furr love you coops
Really Sub Pop? 240p? That's all you're gonna give us? I mean thank you for signing them...but you should strive not to make them sound like shit when a quarter of a million people have watched this. They MIGHT be more likely to actually buy the album...just saying.
my friend burned a cd with this on it for my roadtrip. it was my favorite song on there. i thought for sure it was a famous song from the seventies that I had somehow not heard. i learned that this came from a new band, and was pleasantly surprised. BTW, UK skins was half decent, I cant imagine how bad MTV skins is.... shame on you if you watch that.
Music/Art isn't a contest, y'all. If it makes people happy and maybe exposes them to something new...who cares where it comes from? I've never heard of this 'skins' thing, but whatever it is...it doesn't matter. Now those people get to enjoy something beautiful, and that's what matters.
people should just be happy that a band you love is getting all of this attention. I knew about Blitzen Trapper before Skins, but I am still happy that a great band is getting attention for once.
@BloodyR18 who cares what brought you here. sick of this "thumbs up if... 23 people. bieber shit" comment box is to comment on the song not what brought you here. f*ckin whopper. decent song folk is dead though
@varickloc well i dont fucking care that Skins lead you here... I think the song and the artist are much more than a song of a tv serie... that sucks, actually...
@varickloc bro u obviously dont know this is indie music so everybody knew about this band before it had a thousand views and this music use to be good but now it sucks because they sold out
@ipwnnoobslongtime Being called a 'sell out' is the most overused term in indie music. As soon as they get famous, they're a sell out. It's usually those bands who get people interested enough in the first place to actually bother to have a look at less well known bands. It doesn't matter where people heard it, it's about a love of good music. End of.
Who cares how you found the music? I personally was on a road trip with my father when his ipod played this song. And according to some of you, it was on a tv show? And then theres people who apparently have no lives except scouring youtube for no name bands so later when they come out of obscurity they can gloat about how they found them without help.... more power to ya i guess lmao
some of the best music around is the stuff you'll hear in the background on tv shows... don't bitch because you "heard it first".... just be happy for the artist that's getting heard more
This video is really pretty. God only knows how long it took them to make this. The artwork is beautiful and animation like movements are all really well done. This is one of the more really pretty music videos.
Saw these guys in Seattle last night. They played this song at the Paramount Theatre, and that was an amazing experience. I've been stuck on the song since. Such great imagery and soul in this song. Love it.
I can't believe you said that. I'm a Fab fan but I never made a connection. I wonder do I only like Beatle sort of songs. I love the Finn brothers too... I thought I was out there and not confided to a box... But, I think I am......

i have a feeling that if this song was made by, let's say, bob dylan 40,50 years ago it would be considered as one of the greatest songs of all time now.
I was looking for this song ever since I heard it in my art class back in September. Finally just heard it on Life As Liz and almost died with happiness. =D
I like thinking of it literally too haha. but i think pretty much its about being young and free and wild and then meeting a girl and settling down but still dreaming of being wild lol. beautiful song.
