  • My dance class did a dance to this song!

  • So let me get this straight... For all the amazing songs on her second album she made a music video to this and jimmy, but not for bamboo banga..? Doesn't she realize by not conforming to western pop culture she literally lost millions of dollars...MILLIONS!!!

  • She makes Lady Gaga seem outdated.

  • her music is kinda wierd .....but catchy....lol

  • My dance class is performing to this song!

  • excellent beats.. !!

  • wow. they get bird flu from the crap they drop on the fields when they get paid... lol. so much for globalization.

  • The begining was really akward right there.O_O

  • what are you talking about?!? The whole song is pretty awkward LOL.

  • omg! it's dhapangutu song

    gotta hand it to MIA she's funny

  • i dont know why people say they cant understand her i can! hmmm weird.

  • same here

  • this song is in fifa street 3

  • lol this<33

  • Sunshowers is her best song

    in my opinion

  • LOVE TO M.I.A!!! the perfect blend of electronica/hip-hop and everything else in between!!! Awesome.

  • This one, "What I got" and "paper planes" is her best work....i dig the hip hop influence more than the electronica/dance stuff.....this beat is sick as hell.....

    i still dont understand what she's saying..but the visuals are nice

  • @ luciabeckett4 : riddim & culture .. NUFF SAID

  • @ RiddimandCultureTV: Learn how to spell ... NUFF SAID

  • what genre is mia? any one?

  • lmao

  • Hip Hop

  • M.I.A. is just music, why does everyone have this obsession with labeling things.

  • @lastflightof79 coz its the world we now live in.

  • slick beats...MIA is sexy, independant and if you dont like her, go fuck yourself, cos she doesnt give two shits :L:L

  • you dont evenknow where people are from, fucking faggot.. talk racist shit, but dont know shit about what u saying.. why u even commenting?

  • @mikeintheyearof1990 ... it's Sri Lanka not Pakistan, racist.

  • People need to be more open minded. and another thing. SHE has a ton of songs out there, so until you have a few hit songs of your own, don't knock her for being successful.

  • People, I can understand y western people wont like this song but please stop dissing this song...the beat is called "ghana" which is played in slums in the southern part of India particularly in the state of Tamil Nadu, which is were I come from......she has just taken the beats and given her voice to it...

  • i don't see y us "westerners" won't like this song

  • Paper planes is MIA's worst song...

    It is NOTHING Like her other music.

    Seriously...

    Paper planes is a shit typical hiphop/rap song.

    Stupid.

    THIS, Bird Flu, is REAL music.

  • Both are good.

    Just because one song if different

    than the others doesn't make it

    "typical."

  • You fucking bitch i got paper planes sooo good in calgary no one ever l;istined to you whore

  • She is a tribal goddess. Those kids are gonna be great soccer players one day. Also, her accent is sexy.

  • M.I.A is the shit!!! shes fucking awesome.

  • @TheNinjaBoy13

    your opinions are naive in turn making them complete fallace!

  • man mia is a big crap cake the only good song they have that i like is paper planes because its not dumb and i can actually understand what ther saying

  • @TheNinjaBoy13

    go look at a globe, and take a moment to think about how many countries, languages, and accents there are out there

  • is it 3?

  • @TheNinjaBoy13

    HEr voice sucks anyways.... No talent at all

  • Cool as shit and definitely better than that Brittney song with the chicken.

  • Well, its different. Its not as bad as Britney Spears "123" song.

  • dam this song was cool as shit hhaha

  • ALL i said was that I had NO idea as to what I just heard. Don't be offended and thanks for the explanation. I would love to understand the sister. I am a musician/singer..but what is a message if it's not understood? Agreed upon?

  • Its as simple as looking up the lyrics online..so many different dialects and accents in this world. Do your research if u really want to understand.

  • thanks for the advice...don't know if particularly like the implied tone though. I do know that there are many different dialects...ummm...i know that, hence my original comment. If I feel it's that important, I WILL pull up the lyrics.

  • baby M.I.A. is adorable

  • the little boy is super cute

  • Yea sorry!! I was wrong!! anyways she s tamil :)

  • ya exact

  • ya

    i know

  • mia is the shit dont bash ma biotch ass, why do haters always surf to songs they dont like just so they can spread theyre haterism on people more talented than them

  • I really hate that people think being black is the way you act, rather than simply the color of our skin.

  • i couldn't agree with you more!

  • well for one i love M.I.A and I dont understand why ppl who dislike M.I.A purposely come on here and watch her videos say nasty and negatice things about her and her creative art. get a life and grow up. I knw we all are free to say whatever we chose to but be forreal, if you dont like what she sings and says in her songs keep your thoughts to yourself because obviously its not stopping her from making more songs and money.

  • Cool music she makes..

  • yea, u, u, u, uuuuuu, do the bird flu!

  • omg..wats rong with yotube.. the wont let me comment n sht.lol.. this album is hot ..

  • i love her, she is a breath of fresh air. Originality and completely mezmarzing

  • தன் மண்ணின் விடுதலைக்காக , இசையை ஓர் போர் கருவியாக பயன்படுத்தும் உங்களை, தமிழீழ தேசிய ராணுவத்தின் ஓர் படையணி என்று சொன்னால் அது மிகையாகாது.

  • LOL

  • geeeeeezzz dis gave me headache...

  • wtf????

  • Addictive captivating sound rlly rlly...

    AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    LUV MIA

  • i love you M.I.A.

  • is she indian or srelankan

  • she may be of sri lankan origin but she is not a supporter of the LTTE. Her dad may have been in it but his involvment tore her family apart.

  • Really? Just because she's Tamil, doesn't mean she supports the LTTE. It's a music video! Just watch and listen to it! You don't even need to watch it if you don't like it! We are all human beings, we shouldn't hate on each other.

  • Well... I have a lot of SL and Indian Tamil friends I do not hate tamil people at all.... but I do not like any supporters of a terrorist group.

  • Exactly my point kku81! I wish people could just listen to the song and stop arguing.

  • she Tamil

  • Completamente de acuerdo. Solo paper planes vale la pena escuchar

  • LOLzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Maya is an alien & to get her you too need to be from outer space! ^_^

  • @bestsongintheworld wasteman go to sleep

  • wow tamil beat is sick.. wit englsih

  • this is sick.

  • AWESOME MAN....

  • what fucked up quality

  • god what type of shades is she wearing in0:21 i want some soooo bad if any one knows please tell me

  • i got dolce and gabanas that are very much the same shape!

  • i love bird flu i love listening to it and M.I.A is one of the most best singers ive heard

  • Haha..."Most Best" ?

  • She's right at home! These are her people and it's so wonderful to see her get back to her roots and be with them!!! !

  • No, that's your balls.

  • This song has an amazing beat. Love itt.

  • Sri Lankans?

  • that song is on fifa street 3

  • We need a swine flu remix

  • and the horse flu.......but that doesnt catch to humans but its still an animal

  • What the deuce....? o.O

  • i cant belive she performed a concert the day she wassupposed to give birth

    like weird

  • i love her

  • nice watermelon tee

  • Too bad sound quality is mediocre, this tune is off the hook!

  • the kid in the red always makes me laff

  • i love m.i.a buh can anyone explain 2 me wat dis video is about plz lol thnx

  • The song is about the band having to fight coming to play in the U.S. coming from a small island. It also goes more in depth about their real fight over trying to keep their respect from their critics. Many have bashed M.I.A. for contributing to a known terrorist group (Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam) attempting to overthrow their home country's (Sri Lanka) government. I don't know if they did or didn't but anyways look at the ending lyrics, about last 20 words it explains the song alot.

  • finally. someone who gets it. thats exactly why the last shot we were left with is the tiger, which would be in reference to LTTE!!!! Excellent observation!

  • go look sunshower

  • LTTE has been destroyed, Sri Lanka is now free of the tamil Tiger terrorists :)

  • i love this BITCH ----

    she is so COOOOLLLL!!!

  • Sick..sick..sick... but in a rock my collective world kind of way... I lurv me sum MIA.... more..more...more... <3
