  • I'm a robot and find this offensive.

  • this song makes me want to SHAKE, SHAKE, SHAKE, SHAKE SHAKE!!

  • Great song vid fits perfectly love this thanks for the whole thing.

  • 6 people dont like robots i guess

  • best modest mouse song ever. This song sucks ass.

  • The scientist is a lonely, chauvinist who wants to turn his robot creation into the ideal wife. Yet the robot's masculine heart is revealed when he falls for a nameless woman on the TV. Desperate to justify his emotions, the robot tinkers with his programming. Outraged that his plans for the perfect wife have been thwarted, the scientists kicks his companion out. Ultimately, the robot lives up to his masculine identity by rescuing his desired damsel from danger.

  • @CaptainCrunchOwns Fantastic!

  • REST IN PEACE MODEST MOUSE!

  • @guitarer99 r.i.p....?

  • @guitarer99 What?

  • @guitarer99 They are not dead.

  • so the robot gave itself a sex change?

  • the jetsons!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Still a better love story than Twilight...

  • Vote Ron Paul 2012! Dont miss the boat : )

  • i hate the fact that i have to wait for COMMERCIALS to load. COMMERCIALS! i dont even WANT to see them!

  • how does it have a picture around the video??

  • this will forever be my favorite video of this song.

    much love MM, much love <3

  • @tmac290 Christ I hate people like you. You won't give the time of day to any music that isn't dumbed down written-by-comity shit for the brain dead masses. Now fuck off back to your Taylor smith vaguely music related noise.

  • This is a great song and a thought provoking terrific video. Well done MM.

  • Awesome-o!!

    

  • what the the hell that guy made the robot to be his bitch

  • @stealthytaco199 yeah, he didn't know that the robot had feelings, also we do the same- horses, circus animals, children, spouses. lower co workers, lower ranks. we all do it

  • While we're on the subject could we change the subject now. What a great first line of the song!

  • We have all missed the boat...

  • My morning coffee

    Makes me want dance

    So i get up from the chair

    and i start spinning in

    The hot house air

    and I let the moment

    t take me there

  • I love dancing so I make vids of me dancing to songs that I like and upload them. Click on me to see some.

  • @pcams10 So why the hell would you joke about something like that?

  • @pcams10 Moral of the video: Racist pigs such as your selves will miss the boat.

  • "Our ideas held no water but we used'em like a dam." 1:23

  • 5 people missed the boat

  • Modest Mouse is one of the greatest underrated bands of our generation. I saw them open for REM, and REM should have opened for them.

  • Hey, I drink Cafe Bustello too (it's the coffee can at 0:16)! I also use the cans to store my art supplies lol

    

  • that is a pretty sweet intro!dieforfunk the only part thats iffie is the chorus, but a pretty sweet song!

  • awww the end is so cute!

  • 2:31

    X-7 (man minus god)

    X+7 (man with god)

    win.

  • Walter gave One Eyed Willy a sex change

  • 0:03 - 0:22 love that intro x)

  • fuck vevo in the ass with a rusty spike

  • @WeaselFlesh why... I mean they are the only ones giving us the original video in good quality. It's not like VEVO made advertisements on youtube, they were around before VEVO. It's really youtubes fault for allowing ads on vevo.

  • @WeaselFlesh what are they doing wrong?

  • @WeaselFlesh Yes indeed fuck vevo in the most tormentous way possible. How dare they make it legally free to watch music videos with only a small amount of advertisments. Its terrible. They need to be brought down so that we can finally pay for everytime we want to watch a music video on youtube. What else would we do with our money?

  • @WeaselFlesh Woah someone is a little graphic X0

  • @WeaselFlesh Get Google Chrome and Download Add Blocker from the web store. No more adds on anything. Hope that helps. :)

  • OSAMA MISSED HIS BOAT

  • If the robot was designed to be a woman and replace his wife does that make it a lesbian?.........

  • @broccolipie1 I'm pretty sure the robot's a dude. Hence the name "Walter." lol

  • @broccolipie1 I was just thinking the exact same thing, that or it came out a guy but meant to be his wife

  • why do songs always have to have a meaning? just listen to it and enjoy it.

  • Can someone tell me what this song is about/means? I'm terrible at finding these out.

  • @MrDemiGawd People, and how they're slowly wasting their lives away for nothing (money, riches, etc.). At least that's what I thought it was about.

  • @7credible Sounds about right, thanks :D

  • @7credible kinda but its also about a relationship of some sort. thats my take on it cause I can seriously relate and understand it clearl, im not guessing i know its about that

  • but not wasting with money or riches. its time, love wasted chances, standing behind things that arent really there and thinking thing s will go the way they go in your head.

  • Why can't Modest Mouse tour at SF? =(

  • 3:27 tilt-shift lens! yummy :)

  • absolutely terrible hipster shit. Oh no wait, 440000 views? That's way too much for hipsters to like. They can't use this band name to raise they unwanted self-importance with others.

  • @TheViolenceMan You are either trolling or just an asshole. I hope I am just succumbing to a troll. Otherwise you can suck a dick.

  • @lukelikes2read and you are just the average fanboi. No one can express an opinion on music on youtube, cause the insane fanboi will attack. Try yo read another time what i wrote, dipshit. Even a mcdonald worker like you can maybe understand. Suck a dick? The last smartass that said this to me is still in hospital. Sftu cocksucker.

  • @TheViolenceMan ooo your so scary invisible computer person putting empty words into a screen. heres an idea loose the testosterone and stop having suck stupid ass petty arguments

  • @TheViolenceMan not sure i get what you mean. You state this song is for hipsters but then you say it has too many views to be a hipster song. Then you say " they can't use this band name to raise THEY unwanted self-importance with others." What did you mean there?

  • i searched up chris brown and this came up

  • What in the world does this have to do with Chris Brown?

  • this had nothing to with chris brown

  • 2:40 i wish i never ran away...i miss my dad and havent seen him for two years...

  • Everyone talking about these vevo ads..ive never gotten an ad on my views lol

  • @Marionet64 You're lucky.

  • Walter Robot is my hero.

  • uske maki choot....

    harami saala

    eshan

  • uske ma...pd

  • why did this come up when i searched for chris brown?

  • @ArmandoDippet Because it's better.

  • @ArmandoDippet because there is a god.

  • i think this would make an awesome movie, as long as they don't use a shit load of CGI

  • What useless tools ourselves - indeed.

  • my favourite video ever, my favourite song, ever. piss on your haters.

  • My favourite video ever, my favourite song ever. Since ever. dont' know why this won't post

  • My favourite video ever, my favourite song ever.

  • Adblock Plus gets rid of all video ads/pop ups on every website, and it's free, and no spy-ware/ other shit.

    If youtube ads piss you off download it.

  • they have great music but its kinda depressing.

  • Poor walter robot

  • Amazing O__O Idk why it's taken me so long to hear this!

  • FUCK 30 SECOND COMMERCIAL GAHHH

  • I think it's lame for shit no name bands to spam on bigger bands shit, but fuck it, people always tell us we sound like Modest Mouse and The Cure and we have trouble getting shows cause were not a hardcore or hipster band. Thanks Modest Mouse for keeping it real as fuck. search Astorian Stigmata on facebook.

  • 4:08 Bout the same way I am around girls.

  • nice

  • my new fav band. i was looking for bluegrass and found Iron Horse - Interstate 8, (killer remake). Modest Mouse kicks ass!

  • i never get commercials for this video. Im lucky!

  • damn they shot this in eagle rock, a block from my house nonetheless !!

    i knew those skater kids !!

  • Man I love this song, it's so relaxing. Its like even though things may not have gone perfect, things will be alright anyway. This song just doesn't get old. I can honestly give it 5/5

  • my parents friend is the scientist dude ^.^ he is like my parents' best friend. he is a pretty awesome artist. he also created the video for death cab for cutie "grapevine fires" i was sad one time and he put on the robot head as a joke :D

  • we know we have the good things but the good things never last

  • Despite the music video and the song being kind of unrelated, they are both awesome.

  • @EpicnessInABox true but this is the video made by a fan... so i guess it doesn't have to relate... lol

  • I love this song. I don`t how many times I`ve just listened to this on repeat for hours. And It never gets old <3

  • Yeahh robot!! get soooome!!!

  • Modest Mouse must have the most interesting videos more than any other band of the 00's. They're all so interesting and creative and suck you in.

  • wooooo best song

  • @SunJohn1995

    for a minute i thought you wrote worst song ever, i was like... what! Then I read it again, and i was like, oh :)

  • @moldmakertoad I'm sorry but is your opinion suppose to be important or something?

  • @moldmakertoad Sir, your just so wrong its hilarious. Clearly you don't analyze music too well.

  • @moldmakertoad If you cannot grasp the meaning behind these lyrics then it may be beyond your mental capacity, which would put you somewhere around a 7 year old. Don't worry keep your chin up!

  • Comment removed

  • @meghatron1 ignore him. he leaves comments to piss people off then realizes how retarded he sounded and deletes them

  • @moldmakertoad only retarded people like you don't know what they are trying to say its music that takes a brain to figure out and clearly you don't have one...or ya just gotta be really high.

  • Comment removed

  • @moldmakertoad couldn't think of a legit come back huh?

  • Comment removed

  • if you press f5, you can skip through pretty much all of the ads. thumbs this up so it goes all the way to the top and other people can know how to skip the ads.

  • ha no dislikes even with a video like this!

  • 3:14 "Oh Mr. Roboto, you so crazy!"

  • 18 now

  • This has such a low view count and rating thats retarded!

    Youtube dun Goofed!

  • 0:01 skip the ads vote this up so everyone can.

  • @kics877 Use a variation of AdBlock (free browser extension) to one of the browsers that support extensions. There are for Firefox(known as AdBlock Plus), Chrome, Internet Explorer, Opera and even the damn Safari. I have the Fx version, and it works so good, that I don't even have an idea which videos have ads and which doesn't. It's a cinch to install and set up too.

    I am not affiliated with the teams, just spreading the good word so please thumbs up this method.

  • @kics877  F5 skips like 99/100 ads

  • @wadey22795 yeah

  • @kics877 Thank you so much, that is genius.

  • @kics877 doesnt work idiot.

  • @kics877 how about instead, everyone gets adblock and doesn't have to deal with adds at all. Get an internet browser that doesn't suck: firefox, chrome, etc.

  • has anyone noticed that the lead singer has a really big lisp?

  • @kkbforizzle Yes. I have noticed that the lead singer does in fact have a gigantic lisp. Also , did you notice that the lead singer with the lisp, raped a girl and got away with it. Look it up. Isaac Brock is a rapist.

  • @drakequake100, an accusation is not proof of guilt. Nor does having a speech impediment mean a fault character. I knew a girl who made false accusations of assault against a boy. I'm not implying that it's always the case (and I recognize that many assaults go unreported), but I doubt this single accusation.

  • modest mouse smoking dutchies

  • Amazing song.

  • how does this only have 11 comments
