  • For some reason youtube seems to be only counting my views

  • 240p? come on sub pop

  • I wanna give them all a hug so they know how much I love them!

  • wondrous, sheer piece of heaven transfomed to us 

  • กูชอบเพลงนี้สัดอะ

  • It's like a folksy version of Sober. Fuckin Brilliant!

  • fleet foxes, jacko hooper, ben howard and bon iver are pretty much all i listen to these days...

  • @kateiishere jacko hooper is incredible! finally getting some recognition too.

  • These harmonies make me wanna go find the cave/wood cabin where these beardy men live and applaud them. :)

  • the lyrics are pretty freaking weird though

  • This is a perfect song

  • I feel like such a cunt for forgetting about this song and FF in general. God, I missed this shit.

  • @wtchcrft3 same here man.

  • Gandalf! 

  • This band is so fucking addicting. During winter break I didn't listen to anything else. Just Fleet Foxes.

  • I'm throwing money at the screen but nothing's happening.

  • 382 people watched this video without sound.

  • Oh lord, too many views. I'M FUCKING OUT OF HERE.

  • The only problem with this song is that it's too short.

  • @FrakkingGerk thats what they call a replay button ;) just trollin' ya :D i luv this music!

  • If you dislike this group...Then fuck you.

  • @StrikerInTheSky i like this group, but fuck you

  • @StrikerInTheSky if you dislike this group then i respect your opinion because its as valid as mine

  • Okay, I just listened to this song four times in a row. Someone help.

  • Brilliant.

  • RIP Fleet Foxes, one of my fav folk bands ever... right down the coast from me too in Seatlle. Sad.

  • @hamronD73

    ...RIP? Only Josh Tillman left. :P

  • thanks josh !

  • someone please explain this music video to me?

    im guessing they were walking in snow and Michael fell over and hurt his head so they are trying to rewind time? lol help me

  • the lyrics didn't mean nothing? i imagin e sad story of a man telling gently a kid about a decaptation "To keep their little heads

    From fallin' in the snow

    And I turned 'round and there you go.

    And, Michael, you would fall,

    And turn the white snow

    Red as strawberries in the summertime"

    u mad bro?

  • 1:02 is head banging like a fucking boss

  • Glorious! 

  • For some reason, claymation gives me the creeps

  • Comment removed

  • @Leability look up uncanny valley on wikipedia

  • @Leability i think it scares everyone

  • I saw them live last year. It was a very spiritual experience.

  • I do want to like fleet foxes but it's their echo, it just creeps me out. They're so abstract, they could be from another age. Still fully appreciate the quality at work here though.

  • @finze1 They've got the best echo since CSN&Y

  • @abrasivewt CSN&Y is exactly who I thought of when I first heard Fleet Foxes. Love it.

  • YEP! u're great! xx

  • @mykebulvai i love myself so much. i love this kind of music, i love some rap, some blues, some bluegrass, some country, some rock n roll, and even some foreign stuff. i'm the best music lover out there

  • Folk music at its best.

  • I seriously have to bob along to this with a smile on my face :D

  • If you mute the audio and watch that cool little man and the shroomies dancing, this is a good video.

  • Comment removed

  • thank you mtv, for showing me another amazing indie band

  • lol

  • @Eraseme9zen Thank god this comment has thumb-down button.

  • Thumb's Up if Your going To the Concert! (in wellington)

  • @Pl0x37 it was amazing wasnt it?

  • Love their music - particularly this - but what on earth is 'White Winter Hymnal' about please???! Dohhh!

  • @STONEYBROKESTILL The song, in my opinion, is actually about a gang fight. "I was following the pack" means being a member of a gang. "Fall and turn the white snow red" means being shot and fall into the snow and bleed to death.

  • @adsbegone RP said in an interview that the lyrics didn't really mean very much on some of these songs, and he would try to write more serious lyrics for the next album.

  • @Mnnvint I don't know why would Robin said that though. Yes, the lyrics didn't really mean much, but how much his vocals pour its emotions makes as if the songs actually have deep meaning.

  • I want to see this video on 1080p.

  • I have fell inlove with thefleet foxes <3

  • how can you dislike this song? how very strange, this song is just fab

  • I hate that this kind of music has been labeled "hipster music" I personally am as anti hipster as one can be. But I love Fleet Foxes, Bon Iver, M. Ward, Andrew Bird etc. I guess that makes me a hypocrite?? I dont think so but I never was one to let the "crowd" determine what I enjoy.

  • @timgrez hipstercrite

  • @cornbagel Closet hipster?? God I hope not

  • favorite part = 0:40 :-)

  • One word: Amazing.

  • Check out Aaron Mobberley - Looking For

  • my heart... it... it... tingles

  • the composition and everything.... its just incredible 

  • r/trees brought me here.

  • PLEASE CHECK OUT MY NEW SONG ON MY CHANNEL PLEASE!!!!!!! IT'S A ACOUSTIC GUITAR SONG !! YOU WILL LOVE IT !! xd

  • love love it.....and best part is that they are even better live!

  • i love this song and the video. its so creative and beautiful :)

  • why does everyone label themselves? is it cos they're not sure what they are and have to name themselves as 'hipsters' or 'chavs' or 'emos'? whats the point? you all already have names?! if you label yourself then people will always and never will stop taking the mick. its just like the 7 yr olds who live near me who give themselves nicknames to sound cooler. but the reality is that little 'strong dude' and 'captain cool' get bullied for their names. stick with your own names people.

  • Ja vas volim! 

  • such a peacefull song... why aren´t the comments like that.....):

  • I wish I could like this song more than once. I feel so merry. :)

  • what is going on at 1.04?

  • ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

    SHUT UP AND ENJOY THE MUSIC

  • @MegaUnicorn01 i only liked you're comment cos your name is megaunicorn

  • This is an awesome band that I didn't know the existence there's like one month, and then i'm completly in love.

  • Just heard this on a New Zealand radio station. It's perfect for a rainy winter afternoon in Seattle.

  • Hipsters were listening to this band before it was a band. They'll let you know about it too.

  • @imnotmarvin my brother listend to them before they were big,he'll let you know too

  • @TheHellothere6 Sadly, they aren't that "big", but I too listened to them for a while before they achieved some recognition. They don't get as much recognition as they deserve, though. Although I hate it when music and bands become famous because it ruins my enjoyment of it... although I can't really see that happening with this band because it's just too good lol

  • @Kurosaki2Ichigo9 Another band like that is Cage the Elephant.

  • thanks reddit

  • I honestly could give a shit less if hipsters listen to this. This album is excellent, and if it becomes mainstream I wouldn't care either because it's that good. Quit obsessing about people who call themselves hipsters, live life and listen to good music, like these guys.

  • Could we please get a version of this in better quality than 240p?

  • Not sure how many of you listen to j. tillman's solo work (drummer/singer of this great band) but I did a cover of one of his songs, if anyone has nothing better to do, and that's really the only reason you should waste your time watching it, you might could give it a view and let me know what you think. Thanks a lot!

  • by Zeus's Beard this is some good music

  • not hating, but I dont really see anything special about this.

  • Thank you, Hipsters! I'll make sure I try my hardest to make stuff like mainstream! Okay?

  • am i tripping or am i seeing clay figures moving around?

  • Can't help but feel it has a secret darker meaning to it.

    Feels like a song you could put in a psychological thriller or something.

  • Damn, this is goooooood.

  • I'm seeing them in concert tonight!! So freaking excited!!

  • @LeNerdGirl I wish I could go and see them again. I saw them in October. It was amazing.<3 I hope you have a great time.

  • wheres this mob been hiding,,ive heard this on the wwf advert,wondered what it was,,,bloody hell I need to now get some albums from this band,,

  • thumbs up for marion bay!

    

  • This is FAB!

  • I instantly did the whole wooooowwwwww when the song ended -.-

  • no words.... smile, uplifting, sad.. over all beautiful.. did i say no words?.. just a few but heartfelt xxx Amazing - thank you xx

  • This marvelous song just make you feel....happy! + with a delicious touch of something like sadness. Genius.

  • Very Beach Boys Pet Sounds era.....brilliant.

  • i never would have listened to this band if it weren't for my hip friends. thank god for hipsters.

  • @Abdulahhasabigdick lol this band is way too mainstream for a true hipsters taste

  • @Abdulahhasabigdick Fuck yeah to that, try out Skrillex too.

  • @SaidCunningOldFury

    wait, are you serious? if you are i want to punch you in the dick.

  • @Abdulahhasabigdick its a joke! They are just about exact opposites. But its just another band my hipster friends helped me find

  • @SaidCunningOldFury

    why would you EVER want to listen to skrillex? if you're going to listen to dubstep, listen to something that isn't skrillex or on the UKF channel.

  • @Abdulahhasabigdick Quit being a hater. Especially on such a great song. Why dont you learn to just enjoy all types of music instead of hating on other peoples opinions.

  • @SaidCunningOldFury wow, if you think you are hip because you listen to Skrillex, this is no longer a world I want to live in.

  • @Abdulahhasabigdick See, we do have our uses sometimes ...

  • @Abdulahhasabigdick 6,729,567 views...no self-respecting hipster would listen to this

  • @Abdulahhasabigdick hipsters are fucking retards.

  • These guys kinda remind me of if The Who were folk rock

  • @usernamebada42 Ha, that's a great description

  • expedition oneee ;)

  • nothing can beat this

  • might have to get this played at my funeral

  • I think i cried....or forgot to blink. Yeah.

  • Things I listen to:

    [ ] Justin Bieber

    [ ] Katy Perry

    [ ] Lady Gaga

  • @KalebTheFinlander

    It's all music, you just don't like it. I don't either but there are a lot of people who do like them. :)

  • The masters of style, lyrics and form. And I love !!!

    :)

  • Brilliant.

  • I love rock, metal and screamo music, but I also listen to acoustic, new wave and other... A friend showed me this, and I started to hear it all the day... I really like it, it's just awesome.

  • If only it was a longer song :(

  • I've heard what this song is supposed to be about, but the incredible simplicity of this tune and lyric makes me think metaphorically of the last days of the International Brigades. Sad but full of hope. One day someone will make that film and this will be the sound track of the most poignant but penultimate scene. A superb song about the love of a brother and death.

  • This video makes me feel comfortable.

  • Such a great video! @godiamone We love Boy & Bear, check out Little Tybee, they just made a one shot puppet video called 'Boxcar Fair' it's incredible! :)

  • TO ANYONE WHO LOVES THIS KIND OF MUSIC but have such a hard time finding anything else that sounds similar, like me :P.... Youtube Boy & Bear.. I just found them on here, and they are just.. great.

  • this song makes christmas perfect

  • I've been waiting all year to listen to this on Christmas Day.

  • @clenelyn so did I! :D

  • This reminds me Christmas

  • Not all Mexican music sounds like bad polka. Much of it is soft aucostic guitar with harmonic singing.

  • when my sister was listenig to the song , she said : ishh,, what a terrible song ! i hit her in the face because it's my favorite group :D fleet foxes <3

  • @ulricaVEVO usually I don't condone that kind of behavior but I'm willing to let that one slip by.

  • Comment removed

  • I can't stop listening to this song. I LOVE these guys! My 15 year old daughter turned me on to them.

  • 240p never sounded so good!

  • check out our music, we are an indie rock band that really take inspiration from fleet foxes and are trying to make something good.

    tell us if you like us!! it good help us so much! thanks :)

  • this song blows

  • @ranger1er92 I like it because it's orchestral, and yet simple, and it gives you this feeling of peace. Give it a couple more listens. I'm sure you'll come to like it.

  • @irishgn08 will try my best!

  • @ranger1er92 thanks :)

  • @ranger1er92 so does your mom

  • @lorixosays I was lauging uncontrollably for like five minutes. lol

  • every night before I go to bed, this is the last song I listen to.

    sweet dreams!

  • @ascitiesburn444 unless you also to their live shows, and buy merchandise

    .

  • this song is awesome

  • This band has such harmony. Love their music. I do not, thankfully, hear any resemblance to Mexican music. Fleet Foxes and Band of Horses indeed; rock on.

  • This sounds like Mexican music.. really it does, hence why I enjoy it so much- and been listening to it all day.

  • @Kocaz69 It doesn't sound Mexican at all lolz don't know why u think it does. Fleet Foxes is a folk band lolz.

  • @ally541 Uh, yes it does you dumb cunt, you obviously dont know shit about mexican music.

  • @Kocaz69 Don't call anyone that awful word, no matter how ignorant you think they may be. Hostility solves nothing and only creates distance. Don't we all want peace among one another? Hate is not the opposite of love...indifference is.

  • @slister45 youre gay

  • music...not really :(

  • @amygrindhouse It's not just music...is a new look on life <3

  • @AllThingsGay3 not really, its covered music from the 70s,....we had this music all ready, its not necessary to write things like that...

  • @amygrindhouse Covered? & i'm kinda glad they were INFLUENCED by the 70s...better than the crappy chart music, this is real music with no auto tune or computerised drums.

  • @amygrindhouse Ignorance at its finest. Please, go on. Entertain us some more

  • I always have bad thoughts that I will die in my sleep. So I listen to this every time before bedtime.

  • this reminds of me Fantastic Mr. Fox
