[pickchick38]

@xXELITECREEPERXx okayyy i was just saying.

[TokyoMonsta1]

@pickchick38 I want to join the conversation to what are we fighting about?

[chimmister]

I'm a capitalist at heart and there's nothing I hate more than the unemployed and boring culture that is the hipster... But God you make good music...

[HappyThoughts1969]

What about Ween?

[sl1ghtlystoop1d]

what a pretentious title. '13 songs you wish you found', more than half this stuff made it to triple j's hottest 100 so poor try hipster

[RAWRxDmcr]

If you are thinking of posting a hate comment on this video, read this first.....

INDIE STANDS FOR INDEPENDENT!

[tata131211]

Why doesnt everyone listen to this music?? ITS AWESOME

[carloda001]

I will not.

[xXsk8ivanXx]

LBP anyone?

[BoludaConGanas]

son una mierd@!!

[so123phy]

all these songs suck shit

[NoBrainFox]

@so123phy People have diferent music tastes, i dont like lady gaga and i neither like 90% of the totay popular songs, but i dnt say they are shit and evryone has a bad music taste. If u like Dupstep u like Dupstep but if you like something else u dant have to say that Dupstep is shit (random examples). Just say you dont like them but dont get offensive, why do i say this ? people like you became the majority and it realy pisses me off

[MrPppaul]

HIPSTER ALERT.

[TheNOTchosen1]

@MrPppaul OH GOD RUN! RUN BEFORE THEY SAY THEY"VE HEARD ALL THE SONGS BEFORE! AHHH!

[trevorskates94]

NO ARCADE FIRE. THE FUCK.

[MentalPolution]

thanks for this

[moothecowsgo]

FINALLY...someone with a good taste in music! :)

[kleos2008]

this is now too mainstream

[Johnwaynesboot]

@kleos2008, It not should matter who is listening to it or how many people... It's whether or not you like it & how it makes you feel (Even though this video came out years after they were popular, as I remember these bands around 06-07'). That's like giving up on The White Stripes once their second album came out.

[CommanderSwedePlays]

@Johnwaynesboot pretty sure he was kidding...just saying

[TheKaiserDuck]

I do love discovering new music in the indie genre and was really excited to see Matt & Kim, Noah and the Whale and Passion Pit make this list. Cheers mate!

[jacobcodfish]

q: why did the hipster burn his tongue on his pizza?

a: he wanted to eat it before it got cool.

[FootSplit]

@jacobcodfish FUCKING GO BACK TO ROBLOX FAGGOT

THIS ISN'T HIPSTER MUSIC ANYWAY, GO DIE

[jacobcodfish]

@FootSplit ahhh... i was all excited when i got an email saying somebody had sent me a message on youtube, and then it was really mean and in capitals. that was kind of a bummer dude! just thought it was a funny joke, typed it on a whim.

[inswoon]

@FootSplit Yes it is.

[craftdeviant41]

@jacobcodfish A:how many hipsters does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

B:How many?

A: It's a really ambiguous number you wouldn't know of it.

[AntonioDeIaO]

The FUN FUN FUN part of the second song remind me of Rebecca Black :O

[Zigtebra]

Loving this! soundcloud(dot)com/zigtebra

[Mcon004]

732 people didnt find these songs

[PoonSlurper]

732 people thought liking was too mainstream.

[DaddyIProductions]

check this guy out.......... watch?v=KjE9Xf1Tsec

[kennyjosh1]

im in the weird part of youtube again...

[EATONedits]

@kennyjosh1 No, you're not..

[Breerox108]

@kennyjosh1 correction: Im at the GOOD part of youtube again.

[SlipwingTheMarauder]

Mountain Man! YES.

[ryanplaysbass182]

matt and kim are a piece of shit

[TitaniumProAce]

I knew all of these and I'm not indie at all......hmmm or maybe I am

[qwertyuiopdan1]

@TitaniumProAce It was indie as of 3 years ago.... Fucking idiots the lot of you.

[TitaniumProAce]

@qwertyuiopdan1 actually you're the only idiot, if you can read I said knew, that equals past tense

[MrRimilev]

i didnt need to find "daylight" it found me <3 fifa 10

[narutojose2]

Man also I heard a song from Passion Pit in the Woody Awards not sure if it was 2011 2010 or 2009 but it was good.

[narutojose2]

basically Matt and Kim in general and Peter, Bjorn & John - Young Folks!!!

[ikazy13]

Matt & Kim and The Knux are awesome man. Thanks

[ThatFunnyBlackGuy]

Passion Pit- Sleepyhead is from the Little big Planet Commercial... I've been looking for that song forever.

[arsenovicm]

mumford and sons, the kooks, mgmt ?

[CommanderSwedePlays]

@arsenovicm too well known...the point is this are supposed to be lesser known songs...though ive heard most of these a lot, without doing much searching, so it kind of failed that anyway

[dethbunny]

@CommanderSwedePlays It is worth noting that the video was posted nearly three years ago. Saying "yeah, I already knew about it" three years later isn't exactly fair.

[CommanderSwedePlays]

@dethbunny Ya i suppose you've got a point.

[3nEedxxCoOkIeS]

@arsenovicm just because one of the most popular indie/alternative bands are in this video does it mean it's not freaking awesome

[italiankidd1011]

@arsenovicm this video was back in 09 mumford kinda jst went mainstream recently

[jonasbabe75]

@arsenovicm I'm just assuming the video creator put songs that weren't as popular as the bands you mentioned.

[zeeplant]

@arsenovicm mumford and sons r awful

[ktm016]

@arsenovicm thats to main-stream now lol

[MrErlendFS]

@arsenovicm you've found them already, so they don't fit the title of this video...

[CobaltIsNotReal]

@arsenovicm

It says indie, not diluted mainstream alternative.

[tioopkillavideos]

you forgot mgmt nigga

[RyoDwarpie]

you aint lying

[CupCakePartyTime]

the tittle should be renamed "songs to listen to when you're high"

[hyperactivehero209]

wheres two door cinema club? :(

[amaziazing]

@hyperactivehero209 These songs are from 2009, 2DCC's singles are pretty new. :P

[OhMercyMe1]

Thanks for uploading this, the music is lovely!

[bigthunk]

Thank you so much!!! So many of these songs I heard on the radio and changed my life. But I didnt catch what they were!

[AshlynNicole11]

Love this!

[sugepoola]

OMG!!!! daylight!!!! sooo uplifting

[chazfosse]

I'm kind of pissed, I like when these are my obscure bands!

[jethyy]

@chazfosse oh you're one of those people?

[FaultRSA]

@chazfosse wow...same vibe right here. pissed and my bands xD

[random000098]

Passion Pit - "Sleepyhead" is the liittle big planet song!!!

[localfitch]

Free Energy has so many better songs from that album.

[hujjer]

"The Heavy" from Colleen sounds a lot like "Soldier" from Erykah Badu...

[MsFunsized57]

hell yeah Passion Pit

[SuperPoopdepoop]

0:52 teach me how to catdaddy...

[beverly50ful]

The 1st viedo looks lyk they havin fun!! thanks 4 posting

[DesertKidsTube]

more like 13 songs im glad i found>;] Daylight actually inspired me to play ketboard;]

[GearsOfWar580]

@efreremjosecedillo and where are your "punk rawk" shit cd's..indie is the shit so go be an angry old bastard somewhere else

[efremjosecedillo]

THIS is seriously the wimpiest shit I have ever heard. Fuck this suit and tie fake sounding crap. Indie? The world is getting wimpier and wimpier and wimpier. Gimmme PUNK RAWK. I rock harder than you and I'm in my 50's. Cry babies. WAHHHHHHHHHH!

[LatinaDancer101]

@efremjosecedillo This isn't about "rocking hard", you old motherfucker. You think Miles Davis is rocking out? No. But his music is still inarguably good, and incredibly famous. This just isn't punk rock. Doesn't make it bad music. Oh yeah, and by the way, shut the fuck up if you don't like the music. Go be old and depressed somewhere else.

[dragonsfoe99]

@efremjosecedillo ur 50 and you just said WAHHHHHHHHHHHH? sad life, trolling at 50 LMFAO

[CliffyGiffy]

I found this video through watching Matt & Kim videos. XD

[IAMGRID]

This was fucking awful.

[Muzulmann]

sleeepyhead's my fave in this list

[greenluxi]

indie kid nostalgia.

[tinch0vaulet]

sorry for the quality? GREAT SONGS!

[shiakkarra]

PASSION PIT!!!!

[196LoveLess]

The reason for humming this would be LSS not cuz its that good... but I do like daylight...

[orangezbythefreeway]

I did find 8 of these songs. i fucking hate shit like this

[every21]

thumbs up if you always find all the good indie music before your friends.

[gengernator]

i hate indies i know its stands for independent but most of them are on the doll and barely have clothes

[Nicolelovezeldaxlove]

<33 Hipsterrrr!;D



[gahlony42]

ilovvveeeeeeemattandkimmmmmm



[knightfallzz]

where is radiohead?

[TheRealFalconFoxx]

@knightfallzz: not so indie anymore, and Radiohead's been around for ages

[brittanyxluv]

i've heard all of these....lol

[OlivR93]

@brittanyxluv same for me. We are Hipsters hahahaha

[heartx3jess]

@OlivR93 No you're not.

[OlivR93]

@heartx3jess I know that for people like you (heartXxxXxJeSsy3loveumybest) the word Hipster is cool, but in fact it sucks, my comment was sarcastic, btw it's not because I've heard all those songs that I like them all..^^

[brittanyxluv]

@OlivR93 haha yep :`)

[ChromeNakuro13]

Seems Legit

[littlelesslove]

Crash Kings sounds like a mixture of Cold War Kids + The White Stripes

[jscarpa2002]

Generation pussbag yay!

[punkrose58]

I see what you did there... Putting Matt and Kim up first- Genius. ;)

[ImJustHereToComment1]

[joaninhamaninha]

[walkingxzombie4]

[MonicaJackalope]

[grace8matangira]

I'm so indie i knew all of these.......

[MrSkinnyWhale]

10) Beast - "Mr. Hurricane"

11) Crash Kings - "Mountain Man"

[Bee22553]

this is the exact same playlist from my job, minus mayer hawthorne.

[wyngasm]

cringe. 2 million views ~ indie. No

[NoAntecessor]

Indie refers to a lack of a major music label, not a lack of popularity.

[th3400ded]

@NoAntecessor This.

[emerican99]

I guess I'm behind but how the hell is #3 considered indie? Is it because he's a trendy white guy with square-framed glasses? you could throw that on the local oldies station and no one would know the difference.

[MIloMercury0]

matt looks like he's on x



[fegrgree]

keep your eyes ahead

[allineedismusicnlove]

i love this type of music. My favorite thing is the singers' voices <33

[dasmurfdog]

Can you be indie and signed?

[luken551]

[foundmykey]

[UnbelieveUnderground]

[punknerd97]

I discovered most of these on my own ^_^

[themsuicjunkies]

[nerdybirdy24]

[AbananaPerson]

[thatboytosin365]

[sleepyjaime93]

[mcaver14]

Mayer Hawthorne writes more of soul kinds of songs.

[ThomSleepCycle]

What makes it not?

[ScienceFreak518]

THANK YOU!

[ShatteredRebellion]

The Noah and the Whale bit was amusing.

[8257950grl]

[thesuperqazplmkdude]

Phoenix - Lisztomania (Redial Remix) [HD]

[nadz993]

SLEEPY HEAD IS FROM LITTLE BIG PLANET 2!! :D:D

[greenkidd529]

i love indie music but i hate hipsters! same with mainstream music. i like some artist but i hate the mainstream crowd. like fuck so what if people like the same music thats what music is for, for all to be listening! some people swear that indie music is made for just them and that noone else can like that band! i love music, but i hate people! (except my girlfriend, my coworkers, my family, friends and my boss) fuck everybody else!

[italiansurprise]

@greenkidd529 It's so mainstream to hate mainstream people.

[greenkidd529]

@italiansurprise *facepalm

[abc432inyoface]

@italiansurprise little harsh dont you think?

[TheNokia90]
