The Hold Steady's "You Can Make Him Like You"

[hyperesh]

Didn't like this video. Love the song so much though, I really thought it would have a far better video.

[MediAndClaire]

love this song; it's addictive.

[indiesoundz760]

i really can make him like you

[NinjaSpidey]

This was so weird that I really liked it. I really liked the stop motion cats. And the ending was great, except why did Waldo only have one arm?

[baconbutties]

Really REALLY good song. Contrare to the creator I think it fits the song very well. I keep coming back to this vid when I want to listen to this song. It's properly good. Nice one :)

[littledrummerboy1203]

much kudos for the kids with franz moustaches.

[WFPLiaison]

hrmmm someone looks like they have a promising future as a filmmaker.

[xkleenexx]

The girl in this video is absolutely adorable!!!

[retror0b0t]

yeah i wonder what her name is and what her sign is and if she likes dogssssssssssssssssssssss

that's what i wonder

[plasticnotions]

There is a way to interpret this video so that it perfectly applies to the song. Girl wakes up from partying, has a rope in her hand to lead her to another guy, another party, because she always needs another guy, another party. The wizard, alien stuff, I don't get that really. But mostly it makes sense.

[ttraynor1]

Please--I need your help seyoulatertonight: WHO....is IT? Who are you listening to? Help. Please..........

Regardless of your analysis, they still make great music.

[NZBIX555]

wow I dont getttttttttttttttttttttttttttt­tttttt

[imthespider]

i haven't looked at this thing for many months now so i was surprised to see these comments, so i'll respond. thanks for the positive and negative comments, it's all good. obviously (i hope) you didn't think this song was trying to play out the message of the song in video format. it was just an idea i came up with and thought i could use it for the contest. my friend and i simply made it over two days for fun. she's going through the pages of waldo, it would be great on a bigger budget!

[Kentalope7]

i dont think you understand this song. sorry. you put alot of work into it but you just didnt give it justice.

[leveelevee]

it seems like a lot of work. but the video sucks. sorry.

[badfish98765]

the chick at the end was hot

[rileyisnt]

The song has a way deeper meaning that finding a new boyfriend (or waldo) . Its about girls

who are stereotypical girls and let their boyfriend decide everything for them. And if they don't like what he wants them to do, They find another to do the same. Thats what i got out of it anyway. everyone's different.

[Joekickass3000]

I agree now that I think about. Or it's just talking about chicks who make everyone do things for them, you know loners

[rileyisnt]

thanks

[fragmaster1500]

I agree with your analysis. Very good thoughts on a very good band

[Joekickass3000]

... so um the aliens and stuffed animals made no sense but. Was she just trying to find waldo like a game or is she trying to find the boy?

[davethecrow]

thats brilliant!!

[johnwtanneriv]

The girl is adorable

[doublebassed]

The main problem I had was that the slack from the rope never got longer as the video went on. Odd thing, that.

Oh, and that it was utterly pointless. Cute main girl does not a video make.

[davethecrow]

yawn

[thetista]

this is probably the best video made by a fan that i've seen period! good stuff. cute girl too lol. bonus.

[DetectiveUtah]

im impressed....id like to know how much money did you spend doin this....probably no money so thats why the only thing i can say is CONGRATULATIONS and keep rockin with your stuff..dont pay attention to all this cunts sayin shit about your stuff...this song speaks about them

[jukeboxdan]

This Vid is very cool. Great Job!

[HighSchoolReality]

i think i just fell in love with you lol.

great job.

[dongcity]

this sucks

[augu0037]

"They say you don't have a problem

Until you start to do it alone

They say you don't have a problem

Until you start bringing it home

They say you don't have a problem

Until you start sleeping alone..."

For anybody that's had a problem with drugs, especially meth, this statement is so true! Funky video, but what do you expect from a bunch of fucked up druggie musicians on a tight budget?

[skp2y]

it didn't fit the song super great, but what video really has to? i liked the idea you tried to pull off, even if your budget limited the equipment and casting and whatnot.

and the fact that 2 people tried to brutally attack you for it and you infused your responses with cheer and thanks is AWESOME. you are the anti-youtube, in the best way possible.

[jchar112]

you tried sooo hard to be david lynch and failed so miserably. i know people shouldnt pass judgement on subjective matter...but OBJECTIVELY that sucked...just become an accountant

[imthespider]

haha it's simply someone going through the pages of waldo on a nonexistent budget. no blue box, no murders, no little people, no cowboys, no david lynch. the thought didn't even cross my mind. thanks for watching though! ;)

[northkato]

@jchar112 you tried so hard to insult someone and failed so miserably. i know people shouldnt pass judgement on others abilities to be an asshole, but you suck at it.... ps nice david lynch name drop, im sure the freshmen girls love to hump you because you've heard of him.

[igallant]

i am having a hard time fathoming how bad this sucks. Awesome song, bastardized video. The slits go up the arm not across....

[imthespider]

i'll keep that in mind. thanks for watching the video

[drweedon]

Remember kids...it's down the street, not across :)

[ghettostarchild59]

wheres waldo?!?

[Olihenly53]

Amazing

[umhoover]

coool!
