  • I did.. and said : BITCH PLEASE!!!

  • No se trata de que Dios exista o no exista. Se trata de que cuando un ser humano no necesita se ríe de todo lo que signifique una esperanza (por mas absurda que parezca). pero cuando hay problemas siempre se ruega que haya "alguien" que nos ayude. No se trata de Si Dios existe, sino de la hipocresía del ser humano con su propia creencia.

  • ZTV <3

  • my brain hurts.. must be calm.. only little girl.. not her fault.. breathe.. relax.. better..

  • I am an atheist and will not be ashamed to say this is a FANTASTIC song. Regina Spektor could put out songs about how cool it is to eat dog shit and it wouldn't make a difference.

  • "There are no atheists in foxholes". Certainly false, but even if it were true, that is in no way, shape or form an argument for theism.

  • @andreasdrg philosophically speaking there is no certainty in anything except the realization that "you exist because you think" (Descartes). Also, the adage "There are no atheists in foxholes" indirectly, philosophically, supports theism. The FACT that a certain tendency or appetite (in the philosophical sense) exist means that a satisfaction could be achieved e.g. "you can be thirsty" indirectly suggests the existence of that something which could quenched the thirst i.e. water:P

  • @hepatitis Well, as I said, that adage is false to begin with, so I don't see how it can be used as an argument for anything. If you mean that the fact that people have a "spiritual need" can be seen as implying the existence of something supernatural, I see your point, but would chalk that up to evolution. We are a wary species, prone to see "intention" in natural events: better to falsely assume there is a predator lurking in the rustling bushes than to falsely assume there isn't.

  • @andreasdrg I am not saying or talking about expectation no no no. I was pointing about appetite. The fact that it exists is a good proof that something exists to satisfy it. It really is as simple as 1+1=2. Dont have to complicate things actually. The adage is true (at least most of the time) & based on my experience in the hospital I have seen many people believe to a higher power when the time of no return comes.

  • @hepatitis Having been in the hospital myself about a year ago, in a very bad way but later recovering, I can personally testify that it is false. Christopher Hitchens, commenting on his illness, said: "redemption and supernatural deliverance appears even more hollow and artificial to me than it did before". There are a thousand ways of explaining "foxhole conversions", among which good old fashioned panic induced irrationality is among the best and theism is among the worst, IMHO!

  • @andreasdrg Sir as I have pointed out the ADAGE is true MOST OF THE TIME. The example of Hitchens does not negate this adage because in great numbers people really do have faith to higher powers when in certain situations. Hitchens was more like a man who followed his own principles to the end but for those who do not hold such views this adage directly applies. Just as i said this has something to do with the concept of APPETITE. [caps-locked to make a point]

  • @hepatitis I think it is an interesting viewpoint, that an appetite would imply the existence of that which the appetite is pointing at. It certainly works for water, but I don't think it works for theism. People in dire crisis grasping at straws by trying out prayer for the first time isn't very convincing to me. Mankind has been reading "heavenly punishment" into lightning, droughts and earthquakes for almost as long as it has existed, that doesn't mean they aren't natural events.

  • @andreasdrg The desire to have revenge through your example is a different issue but it is quiet a relief that somehow you saw my viewpoint. As for me, in a philosophical area, this argument works. I wish I could expound here but the space is limited. We are entitled to our opinion & even if you do not agree with me at least our conversation was not brutal (if you know what I mean:)).

  • @hepatitis Of course, no need to be brutal ;).

  • I love this

  • love this song

  • could it be just borning and that it is - boooorning

  • Laughing at god is the only way to really pray.

  • Q hermoza letra!, deverdad hace pensar mucho! y nos Recuerda Q Dios siempre esta con nosotros =)

  • there are no ATHEISTS in FOXHOLES

    sad but true...

  • i just discovered regina. I already adore her.

  • @HouseOfBanshee good for u! her music got me through some tough and wonderful times.. her lyrics stay with u. fer surrr

  • she seems to not like cynics... like me... this woman is so sensitive that she makes me a little emo kid.

  • Наглая жидовская рожа лезет в монитор. Фу.

  • @mclaudtt какой же ты мудак.

  • @Vandoren333 А по ебалу не хочешь, мразь? Я пейсы тебе в тухес-то затолкаю.

  • :3 <3

  • This is beautiful. No matter which God she sings about.

  • Hermosa canción y en realidad nos hace reflexionar sobre la relación que tenemos con Dios es increíble que solo en momentos de dolor nos acordamos de El.

  • personally I laugh hardest at god when things go to shi t

  • que buenaaaaaaaaaa canción! ella canta hermosamente, y la letra de esta canción no dice nada encontra de Dios, sino al contrario es sobre como somos de hipócritas ante El! ideal esta canción para escuchar un dia nublado uffffffffffff

  • hey great vid! high quality, excelent translation. what else can we ask? thanks for posting this =)

  • Fantastico!

  • Comment removed

  • Im not laughing god anymore.

    R.I.P Grandpa

  • Theres satan too you know?

  • lo unico cierto de todo esto , es que cuando estamos desesperados es cuando nos acordamos de Dios , las demas veces no lo tomamos en cuenta y hasta nor burlamos

  • Funny how it seems like someone always put god into things when he is just an imaginary friend that got out of hand.

  • tiene razon ...

  • bonita cancion..con mucha razon en la letra...la verdad es practicamente asi...yo no creo en Dios tal cual...se podria decir que si creo...de una forma diferente..poseo algun tipo de fe..en que?aun no lo se....sigo buscando...pero si es cierto que ...cuando ocurre algo en la vida que nos hace sentir diminutos...cuando el adios se hace palpable....cuando..cuando cuando.....la Palabra o nombre Dios, aparece...y de una forma u otra..crees.....pero al fin y al kabo es solo bonita cancion

  • Genial traduccion. Es solo una cancion, no hay que ponerse sensibles, y lo digo por los infaltables no creyentes que siempre quieren escribir sus opiniones, es solo una cancion con una hermosa voz que habla sobre las personas y su forma hipocrita de ser, no sobre Dios :3

  • What she sings is actually not true.

  • very nice

  • El unico que se rie es Dios, el se rie, mientras todo eso pasa, pudiendo haberlo evitado, pues ya sabia que eso iba a pasar, o se hace el poco poderoso en las guerras, hambrunas, calamidades, maremotos, y cuando los gobernantes que el mismo personalmente nos elige, y nos causan crisis economicas y atravez de los medios nos hacen ignorantes..

    En si no se rie, se burla de nosotros ya que dios es un absurdo, y nos culpa de cosas injustas, simplemente no existe..

    No hay un motivo para creer en eso

  • @mandriliox ¡¡¡Por Dios!!! ¿Podrías aclarar tus ideas? Primero dices que el se burla de nosotros y luego que no existe, ¿entonces?. ¿Quien crees que ocasiona las guerras, hambrunas, quien elige a los gobernantes que causan crisis económicas como dices, ¿quien esta destruyendo el planeta? Todo eso se contesta con una sola palabra: NOSOTROS, así que no culpes a alguien en quien ni siquiera crees.

    P.D: Esta canción no habla de Dios sino de lo que hipócritas que somos.

  • @mandriliox No comparto tu opinión. El mundo esta como esta porque desde Adán y Eva el hombre decidió hacer las cosas a su modo y lo dejo a El a un lado. Eso es de lo que habla la canción de que en momentos de felicidad nadie se acuerda de el.

  • great song!!!

  • esta cancion no trata de dios, trata de la manera hipocrita en la que el ser vivo se comporta bajo sufrimiento, a final de cuentas este es un juego y cada quien forma sus dioses... los mismos con los que te reiras al final del camino... una buena broma?

  • I think its funny how people always seem to get into religious arguments about this song.

    This song isn't about God. It's about people.

    It's about how people treat God like something funny and trivial until something bad happens. It's pretty sad, actually, because most of the time it's true.

    Great song, thanks for posting : )

  • @claressadubs somehow it tells something about human tendencies to have faith. It is a universal phenomenon just like when you hunger because food exists or you long for companionship because it exists this song tells a deeper emphasis on a longing & a tendency to put faith on something/someone which we call God. Whether we accept God exists or not we know that most often than not there are no atheists in foxholes... no?

  • @hepatitis : ) You certainly said what I was thinking better than I said it. But I think in addition to a tendency to put faith on something/someone, this song is talking about people's tendency to put their faith on something/someone only when they themselves are in danger or afraid and neglect-or treat trivially- that thing/person/God the rest of the time as well.

  • No has conseguido mi amor dios, solo mi miedo.

  • @Rougemusiquita No es por sonar pandereta, que no es mi estilo... Y con todo el respeto del mundo... A Dios no le interesa el miedo... Muchas denominaciones religiosas tratan de relacionarlo con el miedo... Pero a Él le interesa el amor nada más... Y en serio, el comentario va con todo el respeto del mundo...

  • @Rougemusiquita Dios es amor! te recomienda que leas el libro la Cabaña te gustará. Aclara mucho

  • Osea... entonces dios es un "Te ríes de mi pedejete? TOMA UNA PESTE, toma un enfermo en tu casa, toma una hambruna, toma un terremoto por verguero!" jajaja dios no es así. Aunque quieran creer que sí.

  • regina spektor es una compositora e interprete ecepcional, nunca me aburre su musica...., una oasis en el desierto de la basura pop.....

  • Amo esta canción..............Regina is so awesome!

  • aaawwww‼ adoro esta kancion ♥♥♥

  • No one laughs at God in...a hard time

  • muy bien me encanta esta cancion e smi favorita y mas aun cuando vi que decia en español!!!!!!!la gran mayoria se rie d DIOSITO pero en momentos diificiles no hay solo esperan d su ayuda!!!te amo señor

  • que bonita canción, mi propia ideología hacía Dios me permite agradecerle por un día, tanto como por la vida. Me gusstaria pensar que todos platicamos con él en momentos gratos, más que en situaciones dificiles. Que linda perspectiva de esta mujer....

  • Me encanto esta mina, su voz, su filosofia, de mirar el mundo de otra perspectiva.

  • ahi tienen todos los que dicen no creer en dios y se jactan de ello ;)

  • @medralol Mira, yo no creo en Dios, soy atea. Pero no estoy de acuerdo con que la gente se ria del creyente. El tema no es creer o no creer. El tema es respetar o no al otro. Es mi opinión, no critico a nadie :)

  • @LecheChocolatosa me parece excelente q seas asi, aveces hay unos ateos q se pasan y solo lo que hacen es irritar al creyente y viseversa

  • @LecheChocolatosa yo acuerdo contigo también :)

  • God eres mi Vida c:

  • ME ENCANTA!! por cierto buenísima la traducción

  • =)

  • me encanta esta canción! todo lo que dice es tan cierto u_u'
