[siggismari]

omfg, the shins suck!

[shikachika]

i love this song

i just really started listening to them.

cute lead singer, imo.

x]

[Steelyking6725]

You'd fuck anyone that was on tv, then you'd tell your friends about it to get them jealous.

[shikachika]

...

wow.

have alot of supressed anger?

that was kind of wierd.

and crude.

and you ruined the seemingly calm comment board.

ass.

[clamsforsale]

Lovely.

[rodrigoyiyo]

best song ever!!1

[Sezzie86]

This is the best video ever! Dog + The Shins = Heaven.

[teefleaf]

james mercer is sooooooo cute!

[jmaths117]

this song is one of their best along with

caring is creepy

celibate life

weird divide

[wakeboarding72]

i love the song but whats it about?

[jmaths117]

It's a relatively cliche protrayal of an angst-filled teen IMO.

[frootloops116]

AHHBAHAHAHAHAangstangstangstan­gst

[mileyfan0102]

thats on the soundtrack from gilmore girls...i love this song!!!

[IwanttobelikeMirthe]

Know Your OPINION

[1235dug]

check out (DOUG MAC DONALD BAND)

[shannipher]

i love the shins. they suck in a way but i love them still. =/

[NickCesar]

actually, contrary to your belief, they do not suck and are actually a very good band. At least you like them though...

[kajsosa]

love his voice, its so great :)

[Witteria]

Can't help, he looks kawai in 1:18 :D:D:D

This song is strange and a bit without melody, but i like it!! :D It's unusual the way it is :D

[xXWeezerXx]

not very melodic huh? x[

[1235dug]

Check out "Doug Mac Donald Band"

[KenshiRyden]

It's pretty obvious Mercer really doesn't care for filming the video. The whole thing is blatantly half-hearted. I guess it just isn't the Shins style. Love the song though. My favourite.

[himthathasbecomeme]

I disagree. The song is a very nice listen, but the video...eh.

[SpinBuck]

the vocalist looks so much like kevin spacey. ive always thought that.

[MAIKEplacebofreak]

since i've seen garden state, i just love the shins ♥

[skaterflip88]

waynes world , planet rock , panties drop and a top , shes gona rock till the camera stops , i sing about angels like angela , rock , and pamala

[gking407]

Please pardon the comments from my fellow idiotic U.S. citizens. We're very thankful for our adorable Shins and their beautiful melodies. Have a good day.

[voodoodude313]

how does john lennon sucks? and how is he overrated? i mean sure his stuff with the beatles was better than a lot of his solo stuff, but without him the beatles wouldnt have been as great as they were, seeing as he pretty much wrote the majority of it all

[azilla4rmcali]

he is a great artist but he didnt right the majority of it. paul did hella shit and Goerge wrote some of there best songs. As a person he was kind of an asshole and he wasnt a good father to julian

[televisewhatyouwant]

John lennon doesn't suck, hes just a bit overrated is all. As soon as he got shot he became more of an icon, it's not his fault really.

[blueberryslurpee]

Love this song : )

[LoveForAAR]

know your ENEMY!!!

[aciddmc]

Their singer looks a lot of John Lennon, anyone else notice that? I bet John would have enjoyed the tunes too haha.

[deathtotheknowitall2]

this is my favorite song of all time. :)

[kevinbyrne90]

unnecessary

[Olivegal55]

Aw... I want a St. Bernard now...

[KinzleyMarie]

I like the music...but what does pronking mean?

[devilchild994]

very cute! love this song! great vid! i just hope the shins dont become mainstream

[Genericjinxx526]

yeah me 2 i like the shins and people dont really know who they are and its great!!! the shins are by far one of my fav bands

[sniffmytowel]

This video is adorable. Go Shins!

[allyander343]

sniffyourowntowel

[malinkulasekera69]

Yeah criminals will find away to get guns, but it helps to make it harder for them to get it.

[ItsJustRain]

the shins are gorgeous.

thank god for bands like them.

[avsyan]

dude, it's music

[malinkulasekera69]

P.S: The SHins are my favourite band and this song is AWESOME. GO THE SHINS

[malinkulasekera69]

Why bag aussies, the Shins are american u douche. U uneducated fag. At least Australia have better gun laws and health system

[dasgemuse]

maybe a better health system but i think it is harder for them to get guns in Austrailia.

[malinkulasekera69]

Thats a good thing, that why theres less due to guns at australia and less massacres. excuse the spelling

[dasgemuse]

yeah, until they want to go hunting... criminals will still get their hands on a gun no matter what the law, that's why they are criminals.

[canuck4us]

dum fuck aussies

boooooooooo

America= real deal

[sharpshanker]

I love the band. just a bit of a continuity mess up when the guy locks his key in his car- it's night time. The st. bernard gets sent out on his "mision" when it's daytime (meant to be just a few minutes after) to help the poor guy out. ha ha. but who cares? the band and their songs are awesome - especially "Phantom Limb"!!

[NardDogz]

Cute video!

The outdoor scenes were filmed in Beaverton, Oregon. The Saint Bernard was a Champion show dog named Revilo's Quincy and I think his littermate brother Quick Pick was in there at the end.

[devilchild994]

the shins are amazing. i love his voice. its so great

[jcms31]

grande cheloooooooo

[feligirl01]

Wow, i love this video! so cute and funny!

The Shins rule!!!!

[SmellyJelly99]

where can you get a free mp3 of this

[Lane911]

love the big doggie

[pooflanger]

hahaha

[AJohnLocke]

Deploy the St Bernard!

[tomfrikkenhanks]

Fantastic Band! Can't get enough of the shins hope to see them live someday!

[jalapenyoo]

thank you! that's who he reminded me of. :)

[mikelovestacos]

katherineeaton ur a faggot. you think your really cool cuz u listen 2 bands that no body listens 2 just so u can b different and now you dont like them because there aparently 2 "popular" do what ever the fuck u want and dont do shit just 2 b cool...faggot i hate u, hope u die

[Zenoxi]

WORD!

That's the spirit!

[Jromano0005]

of course not saying the shins are doing that...staying true to there music so far and im lovin it

[ikaros12]

sweet ;D

[ironballs420]

oh sorry kathern didnt know it was YOUR band

[katherineeaton]

i used to really like these guys.

when i was back in grade 5.

i hate it when bands like this become

too known. and then like everyone knows them.

[D4zza]

Like totally I know where you are coming from. It's soooo terrible.

[Jromano0005]

I knew what you mean...but i guess its more like if there stardom goes to there head and they change there style to fit bandwagoners needs (definition of a bandwagoner- Suddenly "loving" an artist after disliking them for awhile or only learning of them after there lastest and of course most popular album comes out)

[savoirfaire41]

You sound really interesting.

[taytay1980]

yeah i always hate it when hard work pays off.

[theflyingglove]

love the man. and i love the video, sending out a dog to help people... haha!

[schuyeee]

james mercer is so adorable in that nerdy kind of way! i LOVE the shins!

[chaosmyr]

james mercer looks like my band's guitarist

[TrollsAteMyHomework]

i had to listen to this song in L.A. now it's on my mp3! :)

[xInBloom001x]

amazing

love this song (y)

[lalaloand]

there is a french phrase, "c'est pas tes oignons!" It translates to "it's not your onions" which means it's none of your business. I might not be right, but i always that it maybe meant something similar to "know your business" or whats happening in your life :]

[ntish1]

Best band ever!

(with maybe the POSSIBLE exception of Coldplay)

[BagofSunshine1001]

coldplay? ...lol

[arcticjungle6]

i was thinking about that

the shins has nothing to do with coldplay

and the shins are much better....

[arcticjungle6]

not possible

the shins are better

[ntish1]

Alright, the Shins are the best Indie rock band ever.

[jamygabb]

obviously the onion is about an issue or problem, as you can see from the video too.

[ohxduffmanxyeah]

awesome

[laaadddy]

one of my favorite songs of theirs

[malinkulasekera69]

Bloody great song

[ilovedingoandclancy]

i absolutely LOVE this song & video. i wish it were longer

[BeatleBonker]

James Mercer is gorgeous.

And brilliant.

And wonderful.

The Shins are made of awesome

[lemonsquishy]

the shins are made of awesome, BeatleBonker

[mommynumchucks]

i agree

[LizardKirai]

I still don't know why they called the song "know your onion". xD

[ithoughtofthisname]

Because they are the shins :)

[ithoughtofthisname]

Possibly because of the whole "layers" idea.

Even when you think you truly know something/someone, you can still uncover a totally new layer.

[hrsiegal]

I am sad because Elyse and Marty broke up! Apparently he beat her up

[ShinsElvisBeatles]

great song, real cool video too

[kaylanotebook]

this is a great song!

elyse sewell is hell pretty.

[ewwgaby]

but when they're parking their cars on your chest

you've still got a view of the summer sky

to make it hurt twice when your restless body

caves to its whims

and suddenly struggles to take flight

[lakersbryantlakers]

This is the first shins song i heard also but i heard it on the free cd with the word magazine.

[elliotlmason]

I downloaded this song for free from amazon for free on some promo. best thing I ever did. Saw them in London last night - amazing!

[boopy78]

This was the first Shins song I ever heard. I saw it on Moby's show on MTV2. He also had the Doves on the same show. I love them now, too. Thanks Moby!

[blueberryslurpee]

this video is so cute!

[13DollarMic]

I need that dog!!

[martolinagie]

Great! It was in "Gilmore girls" soundtrack.

:)

[Hjerta]

I love this song and the video !!

:)
