  • Bet they all smoked a Joint before they played. :]

  • They sound lovely live !

  • long nails

  • his guitar skills are awesome

  • beautiful...simply beautiful

  • One thing is certain.. Logan Kroeber sure can keep a beat!

  • I really like these live versions better than their recordings, I wish I could download these :/

  • @secretluv17 you can! go to dirpy (.)com put the url in the bar and it allows for you to download the song. its really useful.

  • that dude needs to cut his nails

  • @elementsk8er821 Hahaha I guess it makes him play well but yeah low key: werewolf hands.

  • @elementsk8er821 most classically trained guitarist keep their fingernails long to help with finger picking..it gives the strings a different sound

  • He plays with fingernails! :D I suddenly like them twice as much.

  • im going to see them July 18 in Oakland cant wait i have a rare performance on my channels uploads of this song when i seen them last year they played with an orchestra crazy stuff

  • I am in Love with this song. :)

  • Hey, I love this band, and this is currently my favorite song of theres, and stuff, but can some body please tell me he's wearing fake nails or something? lol.

    Dodos FTW!

  • one of the best live shows ive seen, cant wait to see them again!

  • gah...i love this sooooo much!

  • fake nails to help with fingerpicking.Alot of guitarist put them on.

  • or they take a slightly more manly thing and grow them for real haha

  • no those are his nails. guitarists like that always grow out their sturmming nails if they done use picks so they can do that.

  • i don't think those r really his nails i think they are fake so he can pluck his guitar better

  • this song is awesome, and he sounds exactly like he does on the cd!

  • does anyone else thinks this sounds like Animal Collective?

  • No.

  • @ImAbomb then you have never listend to Sung Tongs because some parts of this song really sound like Animal Collective and if you only heard stuff from Merri or Strawberry Jam i understand why you would say no

  • :D

    beautiful .

  • this is such a beautiful song, but his nails bug me

  • They bug me too, but hes got to have them to play guitar. If you notice, the nails on his other hand arent nearly as long. Thats because he doesnt need them for that hand.

    anyway, I love this song with a passion <3

    I cant find the album in stores anywhere though. Im a firm believer in buyig music in stores instead of the internet, so it kills me to get it off of itunes D:

    I will if i have to though... i love them too much to not buy it at all...

  • This is really a great song and a great band. I'm highly impressed!

    Also, the drummer is wearing a Harvest Records t-shirt! If you are ever in Asheville, NC they are by far the best record store in the area.

  • I live in NC asheville!! :D my band is planning to go to harvest records

  • Comment removed

  • the strumming isnt too hard. but very clever

  • my favorite song even better than i poke her face

  • You have the have the nails to strum like that

  • what? do you play guitar? having nails like that sounds like a pick is picking it instead of the soft tip of your finger. clear and crisp instead of mellow and soft. dignity and hygiene as you call them have nothing to do with it.

  • WHY DO I LIVE HERE

  • agree with the exception that this particular vid is for npr, so mellow and soft..would be the motif here...yah.

  • tha's a good point, interesting to think about. wish i could ask them, ha ha.

  • you didnt realize that theyre only on his strumming hand?

  • love the dodos tunes =)

  • DVS Skate & Create is awesome

    thanks to this song

  • NPR rules

  • SUCH an amazing song

    and hehe. his nails.

  • I love this

  • I came across this song from dvs skate and create, and boy I'm so glad I did.

  • Great video thank you for posting.

  • dvs skate and create...

  • dvs skate and create song

  • this is probably the best song ever

  • The best single of 2008.

  • At first glace, I didn't really expect the lead singer is the type of person who would sing such poetic songs. I guess you really can't judge a book by its cover. Dodos for the win.

  • Thanks for this! Such a great live band.

  • i have those headphones

  • meric's fingernails are so long!

  • cat man....

    i still love this band tho srsly. mind status=blown

  • Great song, he won't be touching many women with those finger nails

  • oh, I don't think so... :D

  • i think i'm probably the only one who thinks this, but the singer is hot.

    seriously, the "i've been silent" part is amazing. his facial expressions!!

    and this song is awesome. they've become one of my favorite bands in like, 24 hours.

  • No, you're not the only one. I find him insanely gorgeous. I really like everything about Meric (i'm talking like a damn groupie, geez). Anyway, I fell in love with his voice before seeing his face.

    And The Dodos are one of the best things that happened to music nowadays, at least for me.

  • thats exactly what happened to me too!

    i'm like "who's the guy with the deep sexy voice?"

    i sound like a groupie too. haha

  • And he didn't disappoint us, right? :)

    Now yeah, let's stop with that groupie-thing. haha

  • Yeah, his facial expressions are quite AMAZING... I could watch him sing without the music. Haha.

  • they're so talented, great song.

  • I'd never heard of this band... I really like it!

    Thanks for sharing this :)

  • My pleasure.
