  • regardless of what crap you listen to, some one is making money for it....

    there is no beating the system.

    Well i guess radio head did sorta destroy the music industry with in rainbows....

    regardless, some how some one will be making revenue from a song,lyrics,idea. thats how artists and their pimps make a living.

    So, if you enjoy this music, good.

    If you dont go listen to what you enjoy.

    No need to hate ffs... another thing, my local radio stations play "good" music... most of the time. 619

  • You guys don't think you're a market? Sex Pistols and Odd Future are great examples of appealing to trite ideologies.

  • My god how I love this song, i can't even begin to describe it

  • Best part is missing :(

  • This has been one of my favorite songs by Animal Collective. I heard it one day on an indie radio station coming from school and it gave me the chills and made my day so much brighter

  • actually, to all of you who are dogging on the radio, I feel that I would have to disagree with you. you say that only trash is played on the radio, right? or that the only way for us to listen to good music is to explore elsewhere? well, what about all those stations that play good music? or play rarities? or even the stations playing the same songs over and over again - some of those aren't too bad. none of us have a monopoly on the truth, on what is right, or on the color yellow.

  • insert obnoxiously eccentric comment here.

  • I can imagine myself flying to this song - just briskly touching the clouds, and feeling the soft air strike against me. Feels so good. Love Animal Collective.

  • yo what software did you use to produce the video?

  • Bulimic vegetarian wins weights contest

  • Whether or not you believe it, you are listening to true recordings of Bigfoot creatures in their natural environment. We know these are naturally

  • This song isn't alternative enough

  • This is the only song I can really translate the lyrics to something I can understand by Animal Collective.. I think

  • @TheTechnoTurtle there lyrics can apply to so many things, i can get something that relates to me from every song

  • holy crap i think this might be my new favorite Animal Collective song! what album's this from?

  • @palbo4 Strawberry Jam

  • @druminvader ok thanks!

  • Also one of the college stations (89.7 WITR, google and listen now) plays like 3 Animal Collective songs a day almost without fail. Just goes to show that you are specifically thinking about Kiss FM, not radio as a whole.

  • The radio is not inherently bad. I listen to my local jazz and college-ran stations all the time.

    Kiss FM is the problem.

  • cutting the song like that gave me blue balls...

  • who is the first dancer? are the later ones Loie Fuller? Beautiful, incidentally, thank you. physical, instrumental and vocal expressions of joy!

  • Everyone wants to scream like that about something!!

  • this is my favorite song by them and avey has a really sexy voice ok.

  • His scream gets me every time!!

  • one of my favorite songs ever, brings sooooo many memories

  • Would I be able to find either LSD or ecstasy at an Animal Collective concert?

  • @normtheclone Most likely. Ber careful buying concert drugs though. A friend of mine bought some acid which turned out to be a piece of paper with herpes on it.

  • @haikat4 That story is untrue. You can not get herpes from toilets, towels, wash cloths, etc. Herpes only lives for a few seconds outside of the body. Thus, you cannot get it from blotter paper either. Sorry. Your friend is either a pathological liar, is covering up the truth, or is an anti-drug crusader. Do a google search, read a medical journal, whatevs. But please stop disseminating false information about drugs. They're demonized enough, already. Google it if you don't believe me.

  • I used to always be smoking a joint and this song would magically play everytime

  • I heard this long like a year or two ago while watching "Dead Girl". Suffice to say, it's the best song ever.

  • @HoNandFriends exactly.

    

  • try singing this. you will fucking learn to sing.

  • I love this song so, so much. I genuinely listen to it daily.

    I'm not even high, I swear.

  • jeg kan rigtigt godt lide denne sang

  • Brilliant! This guys are just way out there ahead of the rest.

  • @hobocamp64 Thats Because You Don't Hear good Music On The Radio Thats Just People Telling you What They Think You Should Like.

  • @hobocamp64 That would be because this song is not faggotry...i mean mainstream.

    i dont mean to seem vile, but you "wasting" your time to watch the video and "wasting" your time further to write your distaste on the video... made my day 100x better.

    :3 >bless yur cock<

  • @MissSurealist Thank you for showing me the error of my ways. Now I truly can appreciate underground music like the animal collective on the least mainstream of all the sources of media....Youtube!

    Also, I scoured my post for the word "wasting" that you you seem so keen on quoting me on but I can't find it... I guess I'm just not looking hard enough.

    Best Regards!

  • @hobocamp64

    I never said it was underground, it'd be kind of ignorant to say so. Also, I meant mainstream as in the category most faggoty musicians and bands fall in (e.g. everything on the radio, tv, AND internet...you will rarely find AC anywhere).

    I'm sorry that you wasted your time further on the "wasting" front, but to relieve your confusion...perhaps I meant 'wasting' for you isn't everyone else's idea when it comes to 'listening' to good music, which is why you couldn't find the source.

  • Oh, and P.S. using the word faggotry as a synonym for "a thing that is bad" is very inconsiderate of our homosexual friends.... Haven't you seen that commercial with Wanda Sykes?

  • @hobocamp64

    I'm sorry that I've offended you so, I only meant it in the best way possible and consider that perhaps...I meant it not in the way you use it; but don't worry, I'm sure if they take pride, it will only offend the obviously..less adamant.

  • @hobocamp64 Because it's not mainstream bullshit poured out daily by countless artists who can't even write their own fucking songs.

    This is real music, and if you can't appreciate, honestly that's probably a good thing.

  • @hobocamp64 do yourself a favour: take a handgun and shoot every fucking radio in your house.

    havent you figured it out yet? music on the radio is the leading cause of idiocy in this world.

  • @hobocamp64 the radio is filled with utter garbage. if you want to find real music you need to turn off the radio and explore. dont let this world feed you music through a box that plays the same 4 songs over and over. there is SOOOOOOOOOOOO much music out there why would you constrain yourself to what is on the radio? no offence to you but i feel sorry for your kind.

  • @littlec916 stop preaching to the choir about the people you feel sorry for and start introducing those people to music like this. If you feel that passionately about it then climb down out of your ivory tower and spread the love. You're the problem, not the people that turn on the radio when they get in the car to go to work every day.

  • @jonnysan0002 I dont see how I am the problem lol. I do my fair share of music sharing. I spread my love of music to all of my friends. But you did raise a point. The problem isnt the people. Its actually a mixture of the corporations who run the planet and the people who become their sheep. Corporations know that people will listen to whatever is on the radio and the people know that whatever is on the radio must be the hot new shit. Not sure why you are attacking me..oh yeah its the internet.

  • @littlec916 My only point is that people like you need to stop talking like you're better than everyone else - like you've somehow "beat" the system because you like music fewer people have listened to. Respect differences man, come on. And why were you attacking everyone who listens to the radio? Oh...right....it's the internet.

  • @littlec916 for your kind?! what the hell. im backing up johnnysan0002 all the way.

  • @littlec916 Sooo true. I honestly can't stand the radio anymore.

  • @littlec916 They can't hear you they're not watching this video.

  • @littlec916 u b right ... 95% of radio play's purpose and reality is nothing but marketing & advertising. They only play "music" that will suit their needs to bring in $. Sad indeed for those of us who are mindless automatons listening to same garbage over and over and over and over and over and over and over

  • @mrlsms 100% of radio play's purpose is marketing....just listen to the stuff you like. YOU are the one who turned your radio on in the first place.

  • @hobocamp64

    Theres a really good reason its not on the radio. Only trash is played on the radio anymore.

  • Okay, so... I found this song a couple of weeks ago. I liked it, so I bought the album. TWO DAYS after getting the album, I watched Deadgirl and nearly had an excitement seizure.

  • listen to it everyday at least 3 or 20 times

  • sick video!

  • Probably one of my favorite videos on Youtube. Thank you.

  • Forever Rend Green

    Forever End Green

    Forever And Green

  • if im not wrong

  • that snowball fight is a 1893 lumiere brothers stuff

  • sounds like he's getting raped in the ass

  • Oh my gawd, thats one mind blowing vid ya got there.....

  • wheres the rest of it?

  • i am not usually one to say "this is great when you are high" but when i watched this video high it blew my mind. this song is amazing high or not. and the video was very well done.

  • This song is definitely one of my all time favorites, top 25 even, but after listening to their discography a couple times I can earnestly tell you they have a lot of misses. See Grizzly Bear. Bands I would consider rarely missing of recent are Radiohead (post The Bends), The National, and Arcade Fire. But what do I know, I'm some faceless jagoff on youtube. (Frowny face)

  • I wish Animal collective was a girl that I could woo and marry. In my head they are and I did and I'm gonna go have "relations" with her in my room real quick.

  • @syuhas2 Hurry before your mom comes home!!!!

  • @syuhas2 fuckin' dork

  • @syuhas2 Too bad its 4 men

  • @syuhas2  okay bro didn't need to know that

  • I think this is a great video, I love the images.

  • Even if you don't like the way the sound, you have to acknowledge their originality and how completely innovative they are. There's just so much to their music. You especially start noticing how deep they are when you're high -- as you can with many other things.

  • One of my all time favorite songs from one of my all time favorite bands. Words just can't adequately describe.

  • damn this shit fucking sucks, i thought this band was gonna be cool but i guess i was sadly mistaken. i would rather listen to ricky martin than this whack ass shit. fuck animal collective up their stupid assholes

  • @TheMunchMaster Go listen to another song, trust me.

  • @TheMunchMaster i feel really sorry for you, you will never feel the joy that i feel for this song. don't try listening to another song, if you don't like this song then you just won't fully grasp the sound of any of them, and that is sad because this band is truly something like nothing else. creativity personified..

  • @aaronthewolf he's a troll dumbass

  • this song always makes me wanna cry.

  • I like this song.

    

  • the dress awesome

  • Man this is awesome. I can feel the connections between the video and the song. Very good job bro!

  • awesome

  • awasome

  • this song gave me a good trip! the space bar did not.

  • we have definitely advanced in boxing

  • Very abrupt ending.

  • I watch this video a lot. One of my favourite bands! The couple before the Ostrich is just adoreable. Makes me smile every time.

  • @TheN01R

    That clip of the couple kissing was a big deal when it came out.

    Controversial.

  • hell yeah

  • I enjoyed Animal Collection's music until I took a close look at their lyrics and discovered a consistent pattern of underlying racism. Take a close look at the lyrics on their latest album and tell me if you notice anything suspicious.

    Their music videos also just EXUDE racist and homophobic symbolism. Chock full of it. It's staring the fans right in the face and they ignore it. Most of these people identify themselves as pro gay and black rights, which just shows the hypocrisy of it all.

  • @420dogowner IMA SHIT ON YER FUCKIN' TITZ YOU LIL' SHIT-POPPIN CRACK-HEAD ASS FUCK.

  • @420dogowner

    it's all a cosmic joke

  • @420dogowner Give me one example.

  • <3

  • Underrated. See my Animal Collective discography review.

  • IN THE FACE!!!!!

  • ya im definitely bakedf

  • It took me a while to grow on AC. After listening to a lot of their songs..I finally understood myself, somehow..

  • Oggmonster, I think you are my new favorite person. 

  • i listen to this song everyday after studying philosophy (i scream every word).

  • A few songs on Strawberry Jam defenitely have some winter influence behind them, this being one of them.

  • amazing song!

  • those images...where they come form?? im curious!!!!

  • 21 people killed reverend green.

  • Vaudevillians are the coolest animals

  • Bands like this stay underrated because most people are too big of ass fucks to alt-f4 the limewire and go out to buy music.

  • srsly think rolling stone regrets giving poor reviews to this album, since AnCo now owns the music industry.

  • all the people who complain about everyone commenting about how awesome videos are high, have obviously never smoked pot or enjoyed anything in their life to the fullest potential.

  • Wow :) I just discovered this band today I really like it!

  • @EpicNoodle1 oh man, listen to their "feels" album....and then all the others haha

  • where is the footage of the ballerina with the mermaid stuff from?

  • I love this video most for all of the old footage it has in it and how well it goes along with the parts of the song it's played with. It really makes me wonder why people can't just sit here and either enjoy the music or click the pause button and find something else if they don't like it rather than waste their time leaving immature comments or replying to immature comments just because they don't like what was said.

  • This song truly embodies what it feels like to go into insanity and to lose yourself completely. So powerful I love it!

  • Being that AC is one of the greatest bands ever it is quite hard to chose what song of theres is the best but i would have to say this song is 2nd and their best is the song this ones goes into perfectly "Fireworks".

  • where can i watch more of these films..? i love them.

  • this has to be my favourite track from sj

  • @evmister94 yeah this is the one that nailed sj for me

  • I've just found something beautiful...

  • wow that video was so incredibly fitting for the music. awesome work!

  • A great visual interpretation. This song moves to the beat of a heart and the firing of neurons.

  • This song was used in some crazy Zombie rape movie. Deadgirl. Completely out of no where.

  • @Tawlo

    wicked

    sounds like my sorta film ;D

    I love joining in screaming the parts he screams. <3

    The dancing with the dress in this video is fucking tripppppyy! i love it :D

  • ...this must be what it's like to chew 5 gum.

  • @MissSurealist this must be what its like to wear old spice

  • @MissSurealist IS IT LIKE CHEWING 5 KOBALT GAWM?

  • Thier Originals.

  • @xtraordinarymachine0

    I prefer Panda Bear's solo work.

  • wow I am typing on a chalk boaard and this songs aweomse you know I LOVETHI haha caps is gay I love jessie H. So much that ahh I dont know later youtube comment box I got jerkey in the frige kicken song man

  • i agree that it is underrated, but for me, there is no "miss" with animal collective. they always nail it.

  • @davocorrie Giggity

  • @b52goats why bring up a silly quote from family guy, when listening to Animal Collective. I trip to this song and many other Animal Collective songs all the time, not Family Guy.

  • @iTurtlesLike94 Wow your dumb.... I didnt randomly say it it was directed towards someones comment.. thanks for bringing up random shit about tripping too this song too! (sarcasm)

  • @davocorrie i couldnt agree MORE!!!!!

  • @davocorrie ah yes the classic "no miss" setting, applicable to any band of your choice. Animal Collective is awful. What a talented lead vocalist. not.

  • @Egbertwallbee If you think it's awful, why are you watching the video? So you don't "get it," fine. With all due respect though, they're pretty highly regarded musicians, and even Robert Christgau thinks they're at least DECENT. Are you going to disagree with him? No you won't, because he knows more than you. End of story.

  • @DravenX53 I assume you "get it"? They released an EP entitled Fall Be Down. What on earth does that mean? Their music has very little sense of melody and is mostly assortments of noise. I am not saying there are not people who out there who like this, I just think it is quite bad. Also who is Robert Christgau??

  • @Egbertwallbee Actually it was called "Fall Be Kind," and according to the band, the EP was meant to evoke a more warm, autumn-like sound (as opposed to the summer-like sounds on their last album). According to Wikipedia, "Fall Be Kind has received universal acclaim from music critics."

    And Robert Christgau is one of the most famous, well-respected music critics in the country.

    They use a lot of noise, yes. But as with Pink Floyd, you've got to give them a decent listen before you "get it."

  • @Egbertwallbee All I have to say for you is you're very, very narrow-minded. All you've been doing is commenting on AnCo clips saying it isn't "music". Are you a sheep in the mainstream flock? Or you listen to the somewhat mainstream indie bands? If you aren't into Animal Collective why go to the effort to visit the pages of their music and leave mindless remarks? Clearly there are people going there because they enjoy it, go go listen to Lady Gaga and Chris Brown, yeah?

  • @MALLYUNK Clearly your first sentence was false, and also why can't someone say what they think about a song?

  • @Egbertwallbee Clearly? How so? Go to some cult forum against AnCo, not a youtube page where the fans go, your bullshit isn't converting anyone to your taste in music.

  • there is something very magic about this combination of music and picture

  • This, Purple Bottle, Derek, Brothersport, Peacebone, and Spirit They've Vanished are probably my favorite AC songs

  • Dude this was rad!

  • hahaah oggmonster

  • Damn, this is so cool 

  • Best AC song hands down.

  • From one moment to a next

    Reading in the papers to know what's best

  • sometimes you don't know yourself Eating loads of vitamins for your health From one moment to a next Red negativity in the street Maybe it's the earth, maybe it's the heat A baby on the bus smiled at me so easy Now I think it's all right we're together Now I think that's a riot Now I think it's the best you've ever played it Now I think that's a riot Now I think it's all right to feel inhuman Now I think that's a riot Now I think it's all right, we'll sing together Now I think that's a riot

  • I listened to this song high and remember thinking the beginning felt like "christmas in my mouth" lol

  • awesome video to an awesome song...all praises due

  • oh my bad lol

  • dumb people.

    lol

    it says " HE"LLL only be your friend if he touches your breasts" as in he just wants ass.

  • @Tealeyesdreamer dumb person, lol.

    The lyrics are actually "He'll only be a friend if he touches your breast"

    As in the dude is singing about how crazy this chick is and how she'll only be his friend if he touches her (YOUR) breast. It's actually an ultimatum this crazy chick gave to a friend of a dude in AC, I think his name was Charles Wilcox. It was in an interview, but yeah AC phrases it that way because they thought it sounded better. not everything is as it seems AC in fact HATES that shit

  • Tenth time I hear this song today, and I don't plan on stopping.

  • you cut off the last part :(

  • I love the intro sound.. Does any 1 know what they use to make that sound? Also this song is the shit and this band is one of my faves.
