[DarkPlagueStudios]

[shirkl02]

[markHeimdall]

Am i listening to humpy dumpy song style? xDD it's amazing but incredibly hard to traduce for those who english it's not its mother language XDDD :P

[Naurimon]

you're right, Mark, the lyrics are reminiscent of nursery rhymes and use some odd idioms and turns of phrase, but I like them :)

[keenesquivias1998]

That's the Theme Song of 60 Earth Hour

[BRUSHYSURFING]

this is a really well crafted and mixed song- it just keeps building right up to the end- great stuff!

[PocketJaces]

amazing, buckley-esque.

[MyOwnRejects]

Agreed.

[RustySomething]

silvery light of the moon.. :)

[MadeinChinakiki]

[hillyatw24]

One of Australia's best songs of all time !!

[jpemergency]

From Nova Scotia and the fog and fucking beauty , I wish you'se boys the best .

[peanutbutterjelle]

i loved this song from the very first moment i heard it :D its really got this feel to it that's very rare to find in song...

but could anyone explain, in any way, what the song's about?

i've seen the lyrics before and everything but i'm still blank....

[Bacchus440]

I think the last line of the chorus explains it - the girl ruined him. Hmm he might be onto something

[GeneriCreations]

love

[brentxnew]

sex

[TessaBeingTessa]

totally

[josh22922]

really good lyrics.

music too.

[aliciamay79]

love it on so many levels!!!

[burkesmedia]

im gonna listen to this song till i die

[letmeloginyoucunt]

the lyrics to this song are fucking brilliant

[saffyminty]

I agree wholeheartedly! Gotta luv the pretentious literary references LOL! Been quoting these lyrics to anyone who'll listen to me lately. They could've done more with the video tho.

[letmeloginyoucunt]

haha i know ay! its abit dull but eh great song anyway :D

[hobbesdream]

i agree like no other

[eddiebaines9]

Bloody great

[spidersandwich]

I watched this video on repeat for 2 hours when I first found it, without getting bored, it is fucking incredible.

[bellaveen1]

One of my favourite songs. classic, simple and catchy. Fantastic!

[GotAsperis]

Ye he does sound like Bob Dylan, except he can sing better.

[saffyminty]

GotAsperis, I just thought this yesterday while listening to the whole album.

[THEDYLANS]

he kinda sounds a little like bob dylan even his guitar technique

[GypsyViolet80]

This song is absolutely amazing, although if i'm honest my heart belongs to another of their songs - There Is No Such Place. Amazing band, though, sheer class!

[penno2]

they can't make music videos but by god they can write songs

[vivsmiles]

hahahaha lol at the bear and the bassist :DD haha lol.

[vivsmiles]

the band backing a simple vocal line is absolutely amazing, and written very well.

(y)

[Napulitano88]

What a beautiful song

[WhiteSkin]

...I'll say it again, this band is fuckin great.

[aghkunaba]

Simply amazing!!!!

[tominrochester]

I thought this was a buckley song I'd never heard...one song does NOT make him better than Jeff Buckley-c'mon guys...hyperbole...why not say he's better than the beatles!!! It is a great song though-5 stars!

[CrystalCanyons]

No, one song does NOT make him a better songwriter than Jeff Buckley - the absolute masterwork that is their second album "Strange Bird" does.

[tominrochester]

I will have to check that out, good tip.

P.S. "Crystal Canyons" didn't I see you in an adult film once??

[jaythehated]

The Beatles wrote marginal pop-rock, then started doing drugs and went to outer space or something. I've never thought their music was very significant. Obviously a lot of people liked them, they were pop rock.

[SummerTeethEtc]

Such an ignorant comment. Anyone with a scrap of musical knowledge knows that they were taking music into uncharted territory. It wasn't just drugs, it's was creativity, chemistry, and above all, a newly found artistic freedom that spawned albums like Revolver and onwards. To say The Beatles weren't musically significant is like saying Einstein wasn't scientifically pivotal. You clearly have no concept of just how influential they were, and still are.

[mattithefati1987]

hell yeah the beatles wernt even rock..... they even say it themselves... they were pop they made the scence if it wasnt for those fuckers we wuoldnt have pop music

[samike1]

damn fine

[BArcher83]

This song is abso-fucking-amazing! Instant anthem status!

[deke1984]

my band opened for these guys in denver last night and got a chance to talk with them. stand up gentleman all of them. god i love augie march.

[aghkunaba]

Lucky you guys....they are amazing! Brilliant.

I will check out you music

[maxamoe1]

Far from these nonsense bars and their nowhere music, it's making me sick and I know it's making you sick, there's nothing there it's like eating air, it's like drinking gin with nothing else in and that doesn't hold me together...

[maxamoe1]

Great song i have got the lyrics:

One Crowded Hour

Now should you expect to see something that you hadn't seen in

somebody you've known since you were sixteen,

If love is a bolt from the blue then what is a bolt but a glorified screw,

And that doesn't hold nothing together.

[Calcifer112]

The first time i heard this on Triple J on the hottest 100 countdown, i couldnt believe it beat Muse (Got Number 9).

It sounded boring and pitiful but after a few listens it got to me and now i think its a fantastic song. But i still reckon Muse is better but hey, triple j was a fan nomination and it was all done by opinion and wasnt necessarily the truth.

[eddiehobbs]

mac 12 is A SAD MAN!!!!!!!!!

[BubbleyBear]

your tellin me eddiehobbs! lol this song rocks!

[KarensHalifax]

Nice tune.

[mee1600]

[mac12ca]

[jolozinger]

[mac12ca]

well im just sayin nd the only reason i watched it was cuz id never heard it b4 nd sum1 told me it was a gud song but it is shit

[engagehoward]

i think hillop shouldve placed number one on the hottest 100

[Kitidingding]

i love this song! it makes me cry!

[KatiexLovesxRock]

I LOVE AUGIE MARCH

[DeliriumSafari]

sounds like jeff buckley, just not as good.

[AustralianMetalHead]

he looks like michael j fox! But this song is so mad! Reminds me of alot of good times... Aussie bands are pwning these days

[divyamavega]

Australia should be proud of this fantastic group - they sound this good live as well!!!

[msmaniac222]

[OrvokkiJupiter]

My fave Australian band!

[Coritiacus]

I prefer David Ford's version. Though it is an awesome song.

[AussieSkier101]

very good song.

still likewhen youwere young by the killers more tho

[sleek290788]

i love this song

[metalboyjin]

love this song, and i love the colour of the dudes guitar. simple but nice

[hangoverboy78]

Agreed, the best for the year for sure... Was a bit pissed off The Fratellis didn't make the 100...

[funkyshmo8]

Number 1 on JJJ's Hottest 100. It doesn't get much better than that. Song of the year, without a doubt.

[basefield]

@katiebear14 The Glasshouse wasn't a rip off of Good News Week, it was produced by the same people.

[AussieinHK]

No 1 on Triple J's Hottest 100 for 2007. Brilliant song....

[Lindsay1000]

great song

[Lilithia]

Love this song. :)

[palace2ratm]

anyone want to comment on the actual song? The reason why shows like the office are so popular in australia is because there is nothing like it in australia, We can be heros was a good show,

[Lindsay1000]

great song

[katiebear14]

glasshouse was nothing more than a cheap and lame rip off of good news week.

[minhymint93]

awesome song and pretty good clip --- why is the subject of a 12 yr old who can't spell is so important? seriously, who cares! And by the way, gre0005, get over it

[vomitsponge]

Tench is incredibly unfunny.

[kekman000]

australian comedy is going down the toilet. but those shows get the ratings, so we can only assume australia's sense of humour is going down the crapper too

[unbeliever87]

Evil person. Australian humour is no better or worse than any other countries.

I'm an aussie, and believe me, disliking tench is a universal thing.

[kekman000]

unbeliever, i was in no way comparing aussie comedy to other countries, which you would've picked up if you read my comment. aussie comedy used to be a lot better, and a lot braver, like full frontal, micallef, shows like that. these days you get skithouse and comedy inc, all thsee ightweight shows that aren't funny, but they draw in a large lowbrow audience, so the networks like them. shows like the chaser, the panel, frontline, all the greats, they get largely ignored.

[unbeliever87]

Ah, 'assume', I gotcha.

But I completely agree. CNNNN should never have ended, even the Glass House was scrapped because of political issues with the election.

Heh, and don't worry I hadn't taken offence to your comment. Aussie pride, it's a curse and a gift :P

[soupofficial]

yeah i hate tench. i wish someone would reformat the computer that he exists on.

this song is sweet anyhow, and i smirked when i realised that glennie looks a bit like michael j fox in the vid.

[happycamperyay]

Why did David Tench come into this? But yeah that show is dead annoying and it needs to be cancelled now it is god awful and the Tench character makes the worst jokes and calls and just makes the guests feel really awkward. And also to Gre0005, I remember when I was your age and I wrote in awful slang that took six hours to read and understand. But really, stop it, if there's one thing you can learn now, slang is annoying. Just don't.

[wuggasnaby]

I love this song. Anyone else hate David Tench?

[gre0005]

and half of the things i write is in "Slang" like in sted of writing 'the' i just do 'da'...

[gre0005]

nd iv gone 2 get help...but it didnt really help

[gre0005]

well its not my fult im a bad speller im only 12...by da way dat was really mean

[guhin]

ahahaha, 12 and you cant write, you must be retarded

[kekman000]

misskass - referring to bad spelling. gre0005 - it kot wot dat kant fo 1ds iz want tk lrrnk.

[tkaihea]

This is one mad song. It's awesome.

[kekman000]

gre0005: Shakespeare reborn

[SIKIRISHKID]

wat does shakespear reborn mean?

[misskass]

(As far as I know) kekman is making fun of the fact that gre is an atrociously bad speller by comparing him to Shakespeare, one of the best writers of his (and possibly all) time. Or the fact that most people can't understand a word that Shakespeare wrote, or that gre typed.

[smackrobotics]

Sikirishkid. just know your him reborn either.

[gre0005]

sorry i didnt mean 2 say dat i was talkin 2 som1 on msn nd i wrot it on this nd not in da ota thing on msn....my bad

[guhin]

its ok, your clearly retarded to make such an obvious mistake

[gre0005]

i love dat song belive me or not but da lead gartrist (how ever ya spell it) it my teachers son nd ma teacher allways plays it in class nd i actually meet his son his really tall

[muddybags1]

drummer is mad

[mcleankmcleank]

:')

[theweehaggis]

Love it.. what more can i say?

[sheisedi]

beautiful. absolutely beautiful.

[jollygirllynn]

Straight to the head,like drinkin gin with nothin else in???

[slightlight]

I think it goes like this:

Theres nothing there, its like eating air, its like drinking gin with nothing else in. and that dosent hold me together.

[gre0005]

is dat sopost to b mean or a comment

[seaweed87]

Love this song!!
