  • I love Damian's little victory jump at the end :'3

  • まさか生でやったとはっ!知らなかったぁ~ 感動!!OK GOさん、大好き!!楽しー!!

  • cool! excelent! fanyyyyy!!!!!

  • great creativity!

  • OK Go is the best band pretty much ever.

  • Stupid MTV. What's with all the camera angles? Don't you know that OK Go's dance songs are supposed to be shown from 1 camera, 1 angle? The only other song with multiple angles is C-C-C-Cinnamon Lips, and, well, I think it's safe to say that that's not their best, by a long shot.

  • i always get so afraid that damian and andy are going to crash into each other, at the beginning of the first chorus. they're not really looking where they're going.

  • way better then justin bieber

  • Love the suits! And the dance too of course. :)

  • Love this dance and song!

  • Whoever thought of using more than 2 cameras to capture this most amazing performance should get a new job. Is it me, or did the camera switch angles at the worst possible moments?

    Ah well, it was awesome all the same!

  • This is like one of the best things ever done!

  • 2:50 the guys celebratory jump at the end is epic :D (left side)

  • @SSdraken I've watched this vid more times than I care to count and the celebratory jump at the end is my fav part. Glad someone else noticed it too. :o)

  • 面白いなー

    上から映してネタばらしにもなってる^^

    やったら楽しいだろうな♪

  • LOVE ITTT

  • how did this not win the vma?

  • IN YOUR FACE! THEY ARE SO NOT FAKE!!!

  • Awesome !

    Best !

    Cool !

    Different !

    Entertaining !

    Fun !

    i love ok go !!!

  • that was sexy. I love guys who know how to have a good laugh. BEST LIVE PERFORMANCE EVER.

  • 生でもできるくらいに練習したんだなあ感動(アホすぎて)w

  • haha.

    thats probably the best live performance EVER! :)

  • Coreography-wise, probably. But they don't play or sing anything! :P

  • ah just like every other band out there, if u jump around u cant sing.

  • @tecoomexicano THEY SING THAT SONG doofus they just didnt do it at the vmas there most famous for that routine in which they did for the mussic video haha I LOVE OK GO

  • I know. I was speaking performance-wise, as did Zeppelinchick09. I didn't criticise them, I just made an observation. Try reading stuff before judging anything.

  • For the record, they play and sing better live than on their albums. They just don't do it during their treadmill dance. I challenge you to sing, play guitar/bass/drums while on treadmills.

  • Why is everyone against me?! I was just saying that that might be their best live performance COREORAPHY-WISE, but not musically their best. And there is no disagreement on this, for there is nothing to disagree with! It's simply the truth!

  • @tecoomexicano

    hurrdurr, opinions man. I actually like this song, claiming that 'It's simply the truth!' is just you being arrogant.

  • @zeppelinchick09 takes guts to perform, too :)

  • woulda had a crappy vid if they had the "smart" promoters figure out wat to do.

    this was awesome on so many levels :)

    definately outside the box :)

  • great vid

    im on cam and bored qJ

  • Estoy fascinada com ellos, son ótimos musicos e bailarinos tambiem.

    ADriana Ayres RECIFE BRAZIL

  • best of entertament!

  • The jump that Damian does when they finish the routine is so awesome. ^__^

  • I absolutely love how excited they were to have succeeded at the end. They are such a phenomenal group.

  • That was.....AWESOME!

  • Amazing.

  • El pinche director de camaras es un pende... les falto un fondo negro y nada de switchs a el publico, en fin cool.

  • It's so cool that they can do live shows of this kind of choreography!

  • No pensé que aunque hicieran playback me encantara tanto jaajja

  • That was great!!

  • jajajajaja 1:26 se le sale el zapato al baterista

  • algunos grupos bailan, otros tocan, otros solo cantan, pero estos hacen ejercicio!!! a eso le llamo reinventar la music performance, no me lo esperaba...

  • I saw this when it was live on tv an i was just so amazed at it lol 100% classic

  • I LOVE THIS!!! great idea OkGo

  • Love the fact that most people have to spend millions of dollars to make a great video while okgo blow everyone away with 8 treadmills! Fucking great! :)

  • great!

  • Nossa, mto irado, mto tri!!!

    "o negócio é ser diferente." ehuehehehueu

  • It gives me chills. It's so good.

  • The fact it was perfect is absolutely incredible and I enjoy this vid every time I watch it.

  • cReAtIve Geniuses! This song/video makes me happy just watching.

  • muito ilario olha cara, vcs sao os caras

  • haha. i have this on my TiVo.

  • Must have a big tour truck, to carry 8 treadmills! :p

  • big..? nah.. just a normal.. we have a coach to carry our stuff around.. plenty of space in the trunk for 8 treadmills... eventhough all our equipment is in there..

  • wow.

    they're on MTV becasue of the music video..

    not actually playing.

    hm.

  • uuuu... thats damn wicked. now i know how they dance on the treadmill. the vid that i saw before was really confusing.

  • hey that one dude diddnt mess up like he did in the regular video if you look at the regular video in the beginning he trips lol

  • You mean damian? You're right. But if you look at 1:47 he does almost fall off of the treadmill :)

  • I actually like this one more than the regular video. Its just fun to watch.

  • Fun and talent brought to the table .

  • 124

  • What do you mean by "124"?

  • That was the 124 post. Sorry if that didn't make sense.

  • i just need one more treadmill.....

  • wow. Bet they were freaking out before that.

  • Wooow 101th comment! lol

  • WOO HOO

    100th comment ^_^

  • you do know thats their live performance on the mtv awards

  • I LOVED THIS, ITS SO DIFFERENT

  • I love this and i didn't notice before what the treadmills said but now i understand it says okgo. And there's Damian...hey! he's not wearing the stretchy pink...er...red pants he's obsessed with! And in the original video Damian trips at the one minute mark. funny.

  • I'm glad they did this dance live. The dance is complicated enough that some people doubted whether they'd be able to do it in one take. To me, this is much more impressive than just playing the song.

  • UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    Wanna go to gyyyyyyyyym

    ;P

  • jill bean what are you talking about that was sooo cool, forgot to see them in the vma's last time. audio's just weird

  • wiiiiiiiiiiiiii lo maximo!

  • Is it just me or does the singer's voice kind of sound like that girl on the movie snoopy come home, who trys to keep snoopy and woodstock? does anyone know what i'm talking about

  • Just bloody brilliant yeah!

  • Just bloody brilliant yeah!

  • Oh damn! This video is wicked.

  • i've been trying to find this video for forever. i've seen the original like a million times, but this is amazing!

  • OMG thoughs i want thoughs treadmills .. like who wouldn't like a treadmill that flashed ok go ... or haveing 8 of them with ok go on them

  • wow.. they r awesome!!!

  • great vid.

    thanks for sharing :)

  • awsome, just awsome.

  • luv okgo

  • Brilliant! :D

  • I lovee it...but yeah I didn't like the camera work either...but they're soo sick <33

  • who choreographed that?

    its awesome!

  • The lead singer's sister.

    She also choreographed "A Million Ways"

    Look it up if you haven't seen it.

  • that is awesome! I lOve how the treadmills say OK GO.

  • oh!! now I get where they got this whole idea from!! and the coustumes!! XD!!!(I'm refering to the new one..]

  • i like it, but i dont like the camera work.

  • I remember biting my nails as i watching that performance live. "Please, don't fuck up", "Please don't fuck up."

    And they didn't!

  • These guys are geniuses (correct plural?)

  • this band is TOTALLY different from other bands, kuz they dont give a crap of how stupid they look, lol. and their songs are actually pretty good, kuz u can dance to em ;] and who said they're stupid? imma woop ur ass o.- betta watch out, foo

  • theyre not a band they do this sort of thing with a lot of songs. they make the videos

  • They are too a band. Really. please don't say things that you don't know. Sorry, but it's true.

  • yea i know. i think i made another post around here...w/e i cant find it. but yea i didnt realize that they were a band when i made that post. thought they just made the vids

  • they write and perform the songs... Yes, they do also make videos... but they are still a band

  • Vexis, what are you talking about "they're not a band"!? those are their songs. Not to mention they existed long before this video came along. i remember seeing them in concert about 5 years ago as an opening act to They Might be Giants

  • yes i realized that, as i said above.

  • This dancing thing gets them away with not playing live!! Lol they're great and i love them <3

  • vea "perdidas en la selva"

    see "lost in the forest"

  • Absolute quality!! I thought there was some clever editing in the video to make it look like one take, but they have proved me wrong. Ok Go are the modern day masters of the music video!! Simply amazing!!

  • There's like a billion good comments and then this a hole

    comes along like OMG thats stuuupid. Shut yo buns. The rock.

  • Nice performance, shame you didn't actually hear them live and instead got the stereo recording.

  • Great video! One of the best videos in world! Sure!

  • i love this song but reli hate stuff like concerts

  • These guys are the goofiest, dorkiest band I have ever seen! Lmao. I love it! XD *huggles*

  • do they play instuments?

  • yes they do actually. Go to there website and watch more videos.

  • awesome! pure genius!

  • After a shitty boring start to the second half of the first 2000's decade (whatever it's called), this has given more enjoyment to mainstream pop and rock than it's had in so frigging long. It's a great music video (in one shot) that can be performed live in it's entirity, it's an awesome concept, performance art, and it's physical comedy how physical comedy should be. It's genius entertainment that's wot it is.

  • i dont care what anyone else says, this is freakin awesome. its different. good beat + wierd dance + treadmills = awesome. Stop being skeptical and enjoy the show!

  • all the dicks that said that was crap then why did you watch it. strangly anough there not a group known for there dance moves and its ment to be a laugh. they not likely to sing live whilst doing that are they! great song great dance

  • Then why watch it Crazycop?

  • He gets off by being an asshole.

  • lol, I love that video, but not really the song. ^^;

  • 1 star since im not a fan!

  • AWESOME!!! O.O

  • They go on the treadmills live?! Awesome.

  • I think they just did it for the VMAs, I'd be very surprised if they did it live. It would take up alot of room in the trucks anyway.

  • i love it

  • they are FANTASTIC!

  • Wow, nice to know a band that makes music focuses more on dancing and doesnt really care to perform the actual song. We hate it when Ashlee Simpson does it, and LOVE it when these guys do it...probably cause they suck. Hey, I wouldnt want to hear it live, it sucks enough.

    And those moves are basic choreography while holding handrails. They do nothing but walk sideways and forward when theyre ACTUALLY on the treadmill and not holding a handrail.

  • shut up, its clever and you know it.

  • Look, I liked it when they did it for a vid. It was creative (nowhere near as difficult as everyone thinks), but to just not perform a song live and do the same thing you did in the video? Nah. And the fact they kept doing camera shots from the ceiling made it look lamer on some parts.

  • You and that other guy should jusy shut the fu*k up

    This is the best video

    i would like to see you make a better one.

  • It's cool & original. But you all talk about how hard it must be. Even though its part of their moves, they resort to the handrails often, making it very easy to recover from a misstep & make it seem intentional. It's cool, no doubt. But why not perform the song live? Heaven forbid they PLAY MUSIC! Instead, its qued up & they do the same dance wed seen 500 times on MTV, on here, etc. I hate to say it cause this dance IS original, but id like more than just letters on the treadmill.

  • I suspect they didn't perform it live because the the producers of the show wanted them to do the treadmills. They're not a powerful enough band yet to insist on getting to play things their way (assuming they even wanted to). In a way, they are trapped by the success of that video because now everyone will always associate the song with it. The same with the A Million Ways dance. They've got to do it at every performance instead of just being able to play the song straight.

  • Get f!cked!They rock!

  • Wow...I give up. Its like arguing with 6 year olds who refuse to accept a different opinion. I even try to say whats actually cool about it, but it obviously doesn't matter. Whatever, you all win. I even said its cool, but they should have performed the song, and I still get blasted.

  • Hey man, sorry. I didn't actually mean it in an aggressive way :P I was just over powered by my love OK GO. Sorry

  • Well, it is kindof my fault. I did say they suck, I meant that the song did. Im not a fan of the song. Tredmills, sure. The song itself is definatley not their best, not even close.

  • I'd like to see you try.

    Turning while you are on a treadmill is not as easy as it looks.

  • No, but its still easy. Maybe on a higher speed its tougher, but its obviously not that fast if theyre doing their little sideways walking stuff on them.

    I am from here on ignoring all responces to these comments. Ive made my point, if you want to argue with me, just argue with your hand, it'll almost be the same.

  • Obviously their appeal is the fact that they dance. It's basically dancing with a side of a music, and if you don't like it, oh well. The main aspect of it is the dancing, that's pretty obvious considering this isn't their first video doing something dance-related.

    And if it's so basic, why don't you try it? I'm not a fan of the song whatsoever, but is there really a need to be so hypercritical and over-analytical? Methinks not.

  • The point is that it's innovative.  I personally don't think they are (or intended to portray themselves as) good dancers - but the concept is great.

  • stop being cynacal

    it may not be difficult but it looks sick. deal with it!

  • omg,stop being such a prick and let loose a little alright. this is the mtv music awards-its supposed to entertain. its not the snobbish elitist music award.

  • 3:03 seconds of my life wasted....Sorry, not a fan.

  • why did you watched it to the end?

  • why watch it all then noob

  • live is better than their musiv video

  • They did it on VMA! It's the first Time I saw them!

  • I LOVE these guys!

  • hehe they're on treadmils...live! haha

  • i like that its very original

  • awesome!

  • fan-bloody-tastic

  • what song is this? I love it!

  • hahha that was great! Theyre so awesome! x
