Handsome Furs - Radio's Hot Sun

[nofx132k2]

This song gives me goosebumps.

[cornonthejayCob1234]

They sound a bit like Live to me lol, anyone else or am I crazy? (Just the singing, though)

[cornonthejayCob1234]

What a gorgeous girl.

[JuanIII]

I can't express how much I want 'either side of an argument using the word sell out' to just shut the fuck up and listen to the music; it's what it's there for. If you don't like it, then listen to something else. If you do, don't waste your time arguing with people that don't and listen to more of it. Sometimes people will look for any excuse to not like something, so don't waste your time on them.

[dereksoundcloud]

i swear i have the exact same toy piano

!!

[amputoir]

the girl on the tiny little piano looks like michael cera

[naseoj]

Love the song but here Alexei is sometimes off-time with the little piano and it bugs the shit out of me.

[okie2339]

there gonna be at the echo september 2 :D its gonna be a super chill show!!

[46killbot2]

@okie2339 Thanks for the info, see ya there!

[46killbot2]

Haunting and beautiful. I can't get enough of these two freakin tamales from the great white north! Come back to L.A. please?

[okie2339]

@46killbot2 there coming back to hollywood on the sept. 2 at the echo

[Boribica]

sell outs ? Wha..??? They are far from sell outs.. You're only a sell out when you loose the passion for creating music... and then your pupils become dollar signs.

[Peterthechinamen]

@Boribica The only thing they sold out to is our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ (amen) and that's nothing to be ashamed of.....

[Myersh]

This is the song that got me into La Blogoteque!

[Rzarectar]

I highly recommend seeing these two if you get a chance. They will rock absolutely any show they play, so matter the size of the crowd, or how sleepy the crowd is.

[shutupkevin100]

@Rzarectar very true!

[ZanderYates]

I love his voice! It's emotional but masculine, not all whiny and shit. And he's hitting the right notes. Amazing music too.

[mnitetoker33]

awful and annoying voice.

[phgh1520]

fantastic voice!!!

[huntingforgod]

Awesome!

[jackshaw]

Sounds how wallpaper looks.

[ApplePickerProd]

@jackshaw lololol

[indosaur]

this is a great song

[Jalenstien]

settle down , if you don't like it keep it to yourself . Why cant everybody just be happy and not give other people shit FUCK i'm tired of this stupendous world

[ChavaCamus]

increiblee no hay ma sk decir

[ubriaconismo]

Love to agree with the last two posts. I've meet both band members recently and they are bad ass! The only one sweating harder than your tinker toy piano player at the end of a Handsome Furs show is the guy with bad drugs hurling in the men's. These two rock with capital ROCK!

[biggie12341]

your all fucking stupid the only people who try hard to be "cool" ARE THE PEOPLE WHO REFUSE TO LISTEN TO MUSIC BECAUSE ITS A SELL OUT! if its bad music its bad if its good its good. stop trying so hard you fucking tools

[Peterthechinamen]

@biggie12341 what if we're trying to be tools?

[northwestmike]

This band sucks ass. The only people who listen to this shit and CLAIM that it's any good are trying to get on the fucking fashion bandwagon for music. This is terrible music from ANY perspective.

[AnonymLonen]

@northwestmike @northwestmike Omg dude, WTF are you talking about? "Fashion bandwagon"? Are you fuckin retarded? This isnt Vampire Weekend or any of those other sell-out psuedo-indie bands. You're not going to seem fashionable by liking HF unless obscure music is "fashionable", which it really isn't. Ur trying to dis the wrong band. Go bash on the "fashionable" bands that deserve it, like Panic! or Fallout fucks, since that's all u give a shit about apparently. Loser

[northwestmike]

You are so full of shit. This band is ALL OVER the fucking net with their "indie" marketing campaign. Everywhere I fucking look this skinny pale fuck and his ugly wife and whimpering sad songs over a lo-fi drum machine (REAL original). The world doesn't need more of this pretentious shoe-gazing crap. It's no better than the fucking Jonas Brothers. Yes the style is different, but it's still music for sad cocksuckers.

[AnonymLonen]

Wait. Ur comparing HF to the Jonas Bros? Lol, nvm then, Im sorry I took you seriously at all.

Where's is this "everywhere" you speak of? B/c I rarely hear of them at all, other than purposely, on "pretentious indie" sites.. *cough* hypocrite *cough*

Ultimately, u made this about labels n shit, when it should be about the damn music. If you don't like it, don't waste ur time listening and keep ur self-aggrandizing anti-"indie" insults to urself. but still, "fashion bandwagon", lmao...

[AnonymLonen]

also, i'm sorry ur so angry and spiteful dude. i'm not saying i don't get irked but.. its kinda sad

[northwestmike]

Ad hominem attacks? Are you in junior high, dude? Have you ever taken debate or Logic 101? I agree we should stop arguing, but only because you're a sore loser. Now perk up, put on those Chuck Taylors and mascara, and go get some dick tonight, emo! Whoops, I guess I resorted to ad hominem attacks too. Now go look it up on Wikipedia, junior.

[AnonymLonen]

lol. forgot about this troll. whoops. loser

[northwestmike]

Loser? Yeah, uh, I'm not the one wearing mascara and fucking gazing at his Chuck Taylors listening to this pathetic music like some pretentious cocksucker.

I don't think I've ever has so much fun making fun of a fan base. I mean, hey, I was disappointed in the music of the Handsome Furs, but what is REALLY fun is watching all the fans get so fucking defensive. LOL!

[AnonymLonen]

The fact that i have no fuckin idea what ur talkin about means ur a fuckin idiot, so forgive me 4 not taking u seriously then, but esp now, lol. im unaware of any such collective, mindless fanbase, but u obviously r & make a point of knowing such things, so ill just let u continue ur hypocritical trollin :)

It's incredible that u'd call me pretentious when all u've been doing is trolling a song u don't like & putting down ppl that do. Not every1 likes the oldies or w/e shit u like grandpa.

[AnonymLonen]

Oh, a converse insult, now i get it. yea, u definitely must keep up on this shit more than me. Fucking lame.

[northwestmike]

Watching you melt down and freak out is like watching a gorilla in a cage start throwing his own shit, or a dog in a car who starts chewing on the seats with rage. Watching you get soooo worked up and defensive because someone else says this music sucks is priceless. You had to go out of your way WEEKS after my initial post to revive a dead thread. I love it!  I love it about as much as you probably enjoy sweaty balls smacking your face while a Jonus Brother farts in your face. Hahaha!

[AnonymLonen]

ur all the more pathetic for gettin off to being a troll. i already wasted enuff time writin somethin that got erased, so i guess ill have to walk away knowing ur a seething wretch.

I'm sorry life's went so wrong for u that this fun for u, but that doesn't mean u don't have a choice to be peice of shit. think about it. get ur jollies off somewhere else. anger management, something. id hate to think im talkin to potential spree killer/animal torturer or some shit.

[AnonymLonen]

lastly - b/c u insist on making this personal - if live w/in driving distance of jedidiah state park, id love to fuck u up in person. no, but ur obviously the type that's only tough when behind a monitor, pussy.

and shave ur hair off, it looks like shit. ur not foolin anyone.

[northwestmike]

@AnonymLonen Yes, Anonymous Loner, I'm sure you probably fuck many, many, many men in local state parks (and local truck stops), but I'm not into 19yo faggots.

[AnonymLonen]

Lol. U ceased to suprise me long ago.

No buddy, i meant i'd knock ur fuckin teeth out. Specific enuff? Thought ud dodge it tho, pussy. Pretentious, porche driving yuppy fuck. u are the epitome of a psuedo-intellectual. lmao.

but yea, if u want to be anything other than a pussy shit-talker, id love to settle this like men. otherwise, plz quite projecting ur homo fantasies onto me every 5 seconds.

[AnonymLonen]

u pissed me off at 1st , but then u were just funny. now ur getting boring & annoying. plz say sumthin of substance, or else i can't in good conscience keep wasting my time on u as u are obviously so willing to for me. I have a life sorry.

Ironic that u'd call Boeckner's wife ugly, lol... Get ur insults straight dude, or atleast consistent. ur wasting my time otherwise.

[AnonymLonen]

"I'm not into 19yo faggots" Oh, so ur into old faggots. Makes sense. U seemed like the type

[tlinscott1]

Are you basing this on this video or have you heard their albums?

[clancy6969]

Bitch sucks at the piano

[asdfghjkl925]

half the time she's just a liiittle off beat when she plays. weird.

[tombuttner]

its called "playing behind the beat"

Rock and Roll 101.

[ZyggyStarrlust]

@asdfghjkl925 you're right, i very much doubt its "playing behind the beat" its just out of time. still good though!

[mitoria]

What is call her instrument ?

[northwestmike]

It's a child's piano. It's a pretentious instrument used by indie musicians to appear cool because they can't actually play real instruments.

[Vaynor]

@northwestmike It's a take away show. Those pianos are small and portable. Did you expect her to bring a full-size piano into the restaurant for this? The song on the album doesn't use it.

[Tae9784]

......  =)

[MrPuppyDrool]

they'll be in bucharest in 16th oct. can't wait !

[slicksullivan]

nice,

[littlsuprstr]

dan boeckner's voice is awesome and i enjoy plague park more than any other wolf parade or wolf parade offshoot album.

[degausser8]

As much as I love Dan....

Spencer Krug >>>Dan Boeckner

Sorry, it had to be said :(

[alexs1422]

If we must compare, which I am firmly against, Apologies to the Queen Mary was Krug's album, Mt. Zoomer was Boeckner's album. And I think that Face Control is better then any of Krug's non-Wolf Parade albums.

[degausser8]

Oooooooh.... I very firmly disagree with that.

Random Spirit Lover and Dragonslayer are quite high up on the list of my ll time favourite albums....

But I guess it's all just a matter of personal opinion

[alexs1422]

Its nice to find someone else on youtube intelligent enough not to say "oh u r wrong, ur a fucking idiot you fag lolololol". And I am a fan of both those albums, but as a musician who makes music with computers and machines like Handsome Furs, Face Control is an absolutely incredible piece of work.

[stellarawesomevideos]

well that goes without saying

[psmooth777]

Don't hate.

[northwestmike]

No, do hate.  This music should be hated. It's crap.

[TheHumanFact0r]

when i listened to plague park i couldn't turn it off. literally. it played on repeat for -3-4 days. i completely concur with you. such an amazing album.

[LostBoyScout]

wow thats a big statement... i'd have a hard time saying anything is better than apologies... but spencer's newest sunset rubdown album is amazing too. plague park is also good.

[siminaaa]

feels a lil' like "once" for me..still great song

[MrPuppyDrool]

damn i just keep coming to this clip

truly awesome

[MrPuppyDrool]

better then the original!

[vindiemusic]

this is one block away from my school!! i go there every day! i cant believe i wasnt there for this!!

[maxzen203]

"LETS GET A TAMALE" lol

[RedHeadOutdoors]

=O WATCH / LISTEN !!!!

watch?v=WjXIrDkc7BE - Redhead Outdoors - I don't know why

OR

watch?v=GdbOdFi0JcI - Redhead Outdoors - When you walk down

Redhead Outdoors - New Disco/Punk/Indie band. Listen/Watch the videos, give it 10secs, I'm sure that if you like Handsome Furs, you'll love this new band ;3 =D Watch, it will worth it! :3

[mistyeyedsurprise]

god they are the sweetest thing ever.

[DreamStuffed]

the song is pretty good, but she missed the tempo of the song several times.... wtf

[ForAhoneyBeh]

Love the way they filmed the end of that. It was really quite charming and cute. :D

[katorox248]

omg! this song sounds soo much sweeter than the origonal.. i wont it! haha aww wish they would come sing that at my work-place! lol i can play this on guitar!:D:D

[guitarplayer91293]

great ending... 'yeah, i want a tamale'

[jahni45]

holy shit, i love this song

[Truemannnn]

awesome..

[SanJose1986]

In S.F. hell yea!

[JesusToastWhore2]

lets get a friggen tamale

[joetubecom99]

great song

[Teebsee]

Whats the instrument called on which the woman is playing?

[Enright9591]

I think it must be a harmonium. Not positive though. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

[AnlOott]

It's just a toy-piano, or how must I call it. A harmonium is something like a flute-piano. This is just a toy. Like in one of the songs of Bon Iver.

[yoursxtruly]

that little toy piano? idk if thats what its called but i've heard it called that. it might be a harmonium

[titnut4]

Its not a harmonium its a Kinderklavier. These people are noobs.

[Mashka735]

dude, i get you

it's completely intensified when it's you playing the guitar

[ZachMA1234]

This song is so powerful and sad. The ending really makes me want to scream to let it out, but also break down in tears at the same time. And it's like we are powerless and ignorant to everything

[titnut4]

cool

[ginandcoffee]

i love this.

[mwasie]

this is amazing..

[SunsetRubdownz]

when asked about what Handsome furs was going to be like, boeckner said something to the effect of, "it's like wolf parade, but without that guy everybody likes so much (krug)"

doesn't matter, wolf parade, handsome furs, and sunset rubdown are so great...

[muchotomas]

I love this song.

[coughlintm]

i have no idea what i love more wolf parade or hansome furs they both are blow my mind.

[SunsetRubdownz]

so... boeckner looks like adrian brody. two men i indeed love and respect as artists.

thanks for posting this... la blogotheque is a little more obscure than youtube ;)

[oonderground]

"let's get a freakin tamale" hmmm, I had suspicions this wasn't in Paris...

[gabewithafender]

i have to agree with youkay; dan boekner fucking blows my mind. whether it's wolf parade or handsome furs, he can do no wrong.

[youkay]

beautiful song. Boeckner never stops amazing me

[bllaazza]

soo cool :)

[SunsetRubdownz]

ever hear of "less is more"?

[1234sss]

that doesn't make sense as a response does it

[greengiant123]

wife

[whoremuch6]

he has an amazing voice

[pallues]

i absolutely love this song, and this video adds to it great quality.

[Foldered]

This video is really good. Dan Boeckner is hat.

[Myersh]
