  • Wow. Some of these comments are sort of really stupid. I am a huge crass fan, and have been for many years, I just recently learned of jeffry lewis and personaly love what he has done with the songs. good song, good video. And to all you assholes bashing on him for changing the lyrics, thats what a true cover does, you take a song from someone else and put your own personal touch to it. Look at movie remakes. Theyre not done line for line.

  • I'm battling mental illness at the moment and this is exactly the kind of beauty I need to help me along. Cheers Jeffrey Lewis, and the video creator

  • this guy is pro! thanks for the cover!

  • Comment removed

  • does anyone know the tabs??

  • Haha. I love you guys. If you actually cared about the lyrics, you wouldn't be arguing.

  • HOW DARE HE DO A CRASS SONG AND NOT BE PUNXPUNXPUNX?!?!!!!1111!!!1111­1111111!!!!!!oneoneone!!!!!! HE SUXXX UP DA PUNX!!!

    Seriously, get the fuck over yourselves. Jeffrey Lewis is better at music than you will ever be. Fuck off.

  • nice lyrics :D

  • @Scarypair92 not his lyrics. this is fucking shite.

  • @ThePoliticsOf the lyrics are good, even though i don't like the music, why do you not like the lyrics?

  • @Scarypair92 those aren't his lyrics. he's taking something that was great and just mucking it up. there's no need for this prick to recreate these songs. especially for hippies and pussies. if you like the lyrics, listen to the actual band. not this clown.

  • @ThePoliticsOf oh i didn't know. the original is much better....screw this guy :P

  • @ThePoliticsOf You spa. I love Crass but JL is going to reach an audience they'd never have gotten to. You should read the inlay of his CD, might understand it a bit better. Saw Steve Ignorant a couple of weeks ago and was amazing but this is a different kettle of fish - not shit, just different.

  • @ThePoliticsOf Crass were actually quite complimentary about the album. Your argument is pretty much invalid. JL does a great job and there is room in the world for both versions of these songs. Get over yourself mate.

  • smashing......

  • Great work man!!! ;) @goodmorningkids

  • I really like this. I'm black and my father preferred folk music. I really like your music.

  • This Musician sucks!

  • @stetsoncutie wow man this guys own stuff is more brilliant than anything crass has every done. Listen to "To be Obectified" he did a song about "chelsea hotel that means basically the same thing as the original. This guy is paying tribute to Crass which is much deserved but this guy's songwriting is not comparable

    Jeff Youre fucking amazing man

  • @stetsoncutie You shouldn't make challenge's for people that you yourself couldn't fulfill. That's just trashy.

  • You do no itza crassong rite?

  • Crass lyrics are awsome! <3_<3

  • this song reminds me of the prison notebooks

  • this guy is a genius and great vid man

  • im guessing Duffguy242 is being sarcastic lol

  • Man its tough being so narrow minded.. Its hard having everything handed to us Mericans our gold paved streets and golden arches. Life ain't easy having it so easy. Turning off my 52 Television gettin little beck in before I prey for all the less fortunate folks with brains. Life aint easy having it so easy.

  • jeff i like you alot ur music is awesome

  • Americans make me lol. It's a music video. Stupid using it as a proxy for your retarded narrow-minded ideals.

  • You do know this is a cover of an english song right? It's by crass.

  • @Animal0rights I'm American, asswipe.

  • Right, so he has an opinion & endorses Obama. If you listen to C.R.A.S.S. or Jeff's interpritations and don't see that the point is that not everyone thinks the same way then I make you more ignorant than Steve himself. That's the great thing about opinions - everyone has one!

  • i love how he brought the brilliance of crass to the people who cant see past their punky style

  • I looovee this soong! :)

  • Nice try. Keep it up check out esteembpo + com for social media marketing. cjmbgjhb

  • I'd say he wanted to cover the songs for his own pleasure. The lyrics are great. This clip is nice.

  • at college there was this dude who sucked and died a black Crass logo on top of his Sun-In dyed shaved head.

  • Write your own songs. Cashing in on Crass's creativity 30 years later is pathetic. An entire album of covers? Seriously?  You sir are indeed a symbol of endless, hopeless, fruitless, aimless games.

  • i agree whole heartedly

  • he has written tons of his own songs, and they are great. i just don't see what's wrong with covering (which is a tribute) crass songs?

  • He did it for the sake of expanding their audience past only crust punks. It worked on me, I have been listening to the originals about 5 times as much now that I hear the amazing lyricism behind them. I don't see what the problem behind trying to promote a nearly dead band because he loves them is. Perhaps you could explain that to me?

  • BECAUSE HE ENDORSED OBAMA!!!!???

  • i don't think you understand...things

  • @exitstencil What a douche.

  • I would literally kill someone to see this man live.

  • Literally?

  • Literally, Literally?

  • 100% literally!

  • kill?

  • but fuck statues and idols and shit. it does subconsciously make people want to elevate you to the level of a "god." be human dude. we prefer it.

    bye.

  • dont become too famous. cus you'll blow up after death. and dont kill yourself: give potential people a real good example after we lost kurt. okay?

    we love you jeffrey.

    and your songs are love-love too.

  • wow, amazing video and song

  • come to st louis jeff

  • WOW.

  • ig, o mundo é de quem faz!

    Right? 8)

  • I like this

  • where is the puppet's sketchbook?

  • Good Video, amazing song!

  • just amazin ; D

  • amazing video

  • If you can you should seriously buy the album. Jeffrey Lewis does an amazing job on every song, and he donates half of anything he makes to charities. I couldn't take this CD out of the player for about a month. Its worth the money. I love pirating just as much as the next person but this album was worth every penny and then some.

  • @Coco92144 Couldnt agree more mate. I mean it's almost a Crass album, the least you can do is get your hands in your big fat pockets and splash some of that dirty money that you pretend to feel so guilty about having.

  • I have the link to download this song, but apparently, You Tube doesn't take links, so, do this:

    Go to google, type end.result.mp3, it's the 3th result to be showed. The name of the site is beemp3.

  • this is brilliant! beautifully animated. Perfect.

  • Danm, I can't download this music from LimeWire... Doesn't exist ... Danm..

  • i get ignorance!!!

  • Musica mto boaa..Do comercial da IG

  • cool music!

    they used it on a commercial here in Brasil for a internet company!

  • That seems slightly ironic since the song is against capitalism. Sabotage in the advertising department or ignorance (bad translation) perhaps?

  • Can you post that commercial? I'd like to see that Jeffrey is reaching a bigger audience.

  • Are you talking about this 30sec spot here?

    /watch?v=RtnYDyTwW8U

    In the end is something like this:

    "The World is not for 'stucked' men"

    "IG - The World is for who does"

  • very charming, the bit with the umbrellas is great

  • I love it! very impressive, video-maker!

  • amazing!
