ISLANDS Don't Call Me Whitney, Bobby

[BirgitChannel]

Thumbs up if Matt Bennett send you here ;D

[GaminGuides1]

I love islands but about 75% of there songs I don't understand WTF they're saying

[TweekDash]

They're terrible at writing; the lyrics make no sense.

It somehow works though.

[kasininkasLT]

Poor Storm Trooper got replaced by a plant :(

[Shultzy999]

"Fuck what you heard, you were lied to" One of my favorite lines ever.

[madiigabii67876]

Heard this song for the first time in an episode of How I Met Your Mother (Best show ever btw) and now I LOVE it (:

[themannydanny]

Very "Yellow Submarine-ish!" That is my highest compliment! Well done!

[ZoeJaymz]

I heard this song from the album 'Return To the Sea'. The song is as fantastic as the album.

[notesfromnyc]

@ZoeJaymz thank you! I heard it in the album too, when it came out. Not that I am knocking how I met your mother...I actually like the show. But come on, people.

[wear0ner]

Fuck it everytime i search for a Song of an american Sitcom the top comment is "heard it on how i met your mother, scrubs etc. ...This is the Answer : "How many People do the same Thing at the same time

[amor17]

[heydaygirl12]

[dachziegel17]

@quiet451 no we cant cuz the song is just How i met your mother, fuck your anorexia, take your tears somewhere else.

[comesoutinthewash]

this is awesome, f*ck what you heard...

[TheKalevk]

I loved The Unicorns enough to get a tatoo of one. So of course i was disappointed with The Islands, however I think they are finding thier own groove that differentiats them from the band that was partially them and creating thier own persona, Thanks .....

[missronnikins]

[DetHanob]

Man, I heard this on the Wedge late nite years ago and it has been stuck in my head for years. Great finding it!

[gianluigidp23]

HIMYM <3!

[KonKdv]

@jrjrloreto ahhh sweet, thanks for the info! 

[phishify]

Haha this was wen they were still like the unicorns smoke and listen to jellybones or sea ghost and you'll go on an adventure!

[veritasaequitas618]

Goddamn I love this band, and the Unicorns of coarse. But this song is by far my favorite of both.

[tweedledumable]

I love How I Met Your Mother for turning me on to Islands. And Goldspot, for that matter.

[mrfudgeyhead]

@XxBlondie4everxX

You're not the first.

And definitely not the last.

[bigm1tch]

Was hoping this would be a weird indie cover/tribute to Sly and the Family Stone's "Don't Call Me Nigger, Whitey."

Instead I'm bored.

[Zebztheshit2]

..and the nominees for best video of all time are:

[persianchick28]

very trippy.

[Ninjerina]

this looks like it was inspired by Yellow Submarine

[zielonodup]

@boomboxlove8  you're probably thinking about VEGANS , cause vegetarians actually drink milk ;]

[Gusbuster811]

@Boomboxlove8

you totally changed my mind about eating meat. from now on I am only eating tofu! Ass.

[ryanadamsfan1]

this is the dumbest song and video!

[wowlovely4]

It is Islands and The Unicorns. Not The Islands and not Unicorns.

:)

[yellowpinto]

is this video made in paint? christ

[RareSnare]

wuts wrong with paint? lol

[ant1ph0n]

considering it has gradients, no. most likely flash or illustrator or a combination.

[eleric29]

the unicorns

[KingAristides]

wat came first the unicorns or the island

[mrfudgeyhead]

Unicorns. And glad to see the royalty is finally getting into the Islands and Unicorns, and let me tell ya King my boy. It's a bright future for whatever kingdom you're ruling.

[TheRowbutt]

@KingAristides The Unicorns, as a matter of fact Don't Call Me Whitney, Bobby is an early Unicorns demo.

[MariEnscripted]

<3 fuck what you heard, you wered LIED TO...

[EnterMyOffice]

Whitney was on Oprah talking about Bobby when I found this song. FREAKING IRONIC.

[mrfudgeyhead]

In the words of Bender Bending Rodriguez, whom would undoubtedly support this song as it survives to the future.

"that's not irony, that's just coincidental"

Victory

[Barockhamster]

loving it.

[thememoryrose]

lovee it! <33

[poju2]

Is this original music video? I love it. Great colorful video great song. Love it. Heard it on HIMYM. Sorry about bad english.

[EnterMyOffice]

I've never seen anything this colorful in my life. Gotta love it.

[rimec]

me too SqUiShY174 :)

[SqUiShY174]

I first heard this song on How I Met Your Mother. I loved it but it took me soo long to find it. Now its on my iPod. :D

[shutupsuckling]

how did it take "so long to find it" google How I met your mother world's greatest couple soundtrack? thats what i did

[Psyfrox]

you only need an Iphone and shazam

[wildsheep17]

first time i heard this song was on how i met your mother

[jcmana]

Me too. It was in S02E05 World's Greatest Couple when Lily ruined Barney's apartment.

It is awesome!

[crazyirish108]

The first time I ever herd this song was in my evolutionary anthropology class at Penn State. It was an 11 am class I had almost 3 years ago by the most bitter mean old hippie professor. But his taste in music was superb!

[meddlingmage724]

gotta watch this again on drugs

[fussbALEXperte]

i dont get what is supposed to be hilarious about the end...

but great song though! heard it on how i met your mother..

[impendingDOOM78]

love the song. the vdeo was lame until the end which was hilarious

[leweez6]

this video gives me a seizure

[Artichokez]

I have always liked the song, but this video was really stupid.

[TheFiona]

awesome!

[courtneyxface]

it's sugar DUMPLING, they're talking about food.

[buddyhollyismyidol]

oh how I love this song :]

[bricabrac85]

This Canadian band rocks! I never heard of this song until How I Met Your Mother, considering I'm familiar with their music too. Long live Canadian music!

[losvegetales]

yea yea when lilly moves to barney's place

[garbagekiss]

i have just heard it in 'how i met your mother' . totally love it !

[losvegetales]

i had forgotten that song till i saw that episode.. loved it

[Sgabadaa]

@garbagekiss me too! : DD

[Biverix]

@garbagekiss When Lily and Barney redecorate his apartment :D

True story.

[angelapanda3]

this song is great. the band is awesome.

[InfraRendell]

I love Islands :)

[kurt2552]

lol "sorry".

[BeWaTer99]

Their second LP is way worse than this one.

[Americamybutt]

yeah i really like their music but this video is trying too hard to be unique

[dodghes]

mhm...... i don't like it cause u like it.......

[Americamybutt]

uh ok... I just said I didn't like it... learn to read. so does this mean you like it now?

[chairsarecool]

i like the song but the video is confusing and def is trying too hard. but i guess just take it for what it is, a nice looking colorful animation.

[JohnnieRadical]

If you ever heard the unicorns.

You know how weird they actually are.

I don't think their even trying.

I think this is just the way they are.

[kattyc]

Well. perhaps the Unicorns were trying hard to as well. You know, as a theory.

[likeadoll1]

i love them! so brilliant!

[LillianLove94]

I love this song[:

It's so different from a lot of the music out there now,

I like it:]

[AnishCarlito]

Heard this on How I Met Your Mother, great song.

[gelyn64]

Me too! One of the greatest shows ever hands down!!

[locollama45]

i love this band!!!! they r awesome!

[benlorenc]

this song is creepy

[stickyricegirl]

i agree.

Islands are 100% awesome live.

You can't fully appreciate them without seeing them live.

[moffdawg]

Yea, loved them before, saw them live at Plaza Club in Vancouver. Killer show.

[Tomer8191]

So call me crazy, but I think this song is song is talking about people dieing from starvation.

[benlorenc]

yeah its something like the singers girlfriend my friend told me aparently shes anorexic or something lol your good with this stuff

[TheBermuda]

Nick's girlfriend isn't anorexic. I've seen her.

[kn41ls]

i'm pretty sure the albums beginning is about starvation and drought

"we drank the tears from those who cried, we shrivelled from the sodium"

not absolutley sure though

[hyuugafan703]

The Unicorns changed band names?

[heat1724]

they broke up and the lead singer started Islands with new bandmates

[Cdubzhappy]

its the same three guys from the unicorns...they just added two new members and changed their style.

[simonslap]

no Alden wasn't there...

and now Jamie isn't either

so it's just Nick now, and other people

[GrishAnnug]

Alden is too good for this to be frank

[JohnnieRadical]

So true.

[kn41ls]

no its they broke up, Nick and Jamie went on to become Islands with others. jamie left after the first album

[boss1tweed]

Great song/video, but I wish I could find a higher quality version...

[TheBermuda]

You're probably all going to hate me for this...but I think the band got a lot worse once the old drummer, Jaimie (sp?) left.

Awesome song, though :)

[themodernage17]

i agree

i also dont like the sound of the violens in the islands songs, they dont seem to fit in

[TheBermuda]

I actually love the violins in their songs, but it's said that Nick didn't really like the osund of them, so he tried to turn the volume of the violins in the song The Arm. I'm not sure if her did or not; I didn't even know you could do that.

[themodernage17]

hmm

i like them on some of their new songs actually

[kn41ls]

the strings parts in "the arm" are fantastic

[54spiritedwill54]

great band

[ansionnachcliste]

These guys are so much better live. Was setting up their gig in Whelans, Dublin, Ireland. They take so long to come out too lol.

[emmetroon]

And they didn't even play rough gem

[HobartLBF]

I love these canadain bastards

[cbebop2411]

[uncultureddirt]
