  • yeah. sweet tune. thanks for posting it.

  • I love the part where they are in the car..

  • Kinda loving all that I have heard by these two so far....

  • im not guna bash the song or the video but i dont get ethier one lol

  • i like how one of the tags for the vid is 'Im confused' XD

  • @neilvokey if you cannot read the conceptuality of the imagery then your desire for a rapid, fast "paced" montage speaks to your acutely short attention span. Maybe you've been tainted by all the ADD/ADHD film making that this "me" generation is all about.

  • Brilliant record.

  • This song is amazing, and the music video is just as great.

  • Love this dude

  • I think the guy portraying the "menacing henchman" captures the role perfectly. I bet that he likes to have his belly rubbed in real-life.

  • I can't help but feeling disappointed by the music videos Subpop did with Handsome Furs (ie "Can't get Started, I'm Confused). The camera work and visuals are all very well and good, but I feel all of the videos, including this one, are just too linear for the musical content. I feel like something more conceptual, such as a montage would fit better than any sort of cut-and-dry storyline. Also the editing in all three is very boring. There's absolutely no sense of pacing.

  • @neilvokey hahah shut up you raging homo! your opinion is as gay as you are

  • @SqueesitPlease Good one.

  • @SqueesitPlease read a book, gays ok. 

  • its so true. people don't even realize what's good anymore. We're spoiled through the use of the internet. I really hope that "emo" doesn't stand for emotional music because otherwise i've lost all hope. How could that be a negative thing??

  • @gonzo3203 - This generation IS fucked. It sickens me to watch the people of the world becoming devoid of any soul. You get it. Thankfully. Much respect.

  • Ohh, I love this song

    & Dan Boeckner and everything he does.

    This video is hella creepy though

  • Saying this is emo is like calling My Chemical Romance's "The Black Parade" punk!

  • I love this! These guys rock!

  • the best music video and the best song ever! magic! sound comes from another world! this voice is so painful!

  • THIS IS EMO!@ EMO!!!

  • @khunopie ALL music is emotional.

  • @sonoflife74 yes, EMO, just EMO

  • @sonoflife74 ALL GOOD, QUALITY music is emotional... :)))

  • haha i love how everyone who comments is either like "what the fuck?" or "oh it means this and that and its so deep" lol

    i love the song and the video is interesting :)

  • Thank God for CNN because that's how I found you Handsome Furs and I think I'm complete now :) YOU GUYS ROCK!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOUR MUSIC!!!!

  • I don't really understand this video.

  • So deep. ooooo aaaahhh

  • Comment removed

  • the song is freakin cool and strange...just the way i like it.

  • The song is okay. The video has a few really creative shots and angles but what the fuck. That shit makes no sense. I'm sure some one can explain it to me though.

  • @coryroberts It seems like they're being kidnapped or something. Pretty obvious I know.

    I think it's more about the fact that we are just animals, despite all our unique human experiences, language, politics - good or bad. Animals kidnapping each other for (most likely) abstract & arbitrarily human reasons. I tend to look into things too much, tho.

    Great song. Like a lot of Dan & Spencer's music, it requires some building up, but the culmination of angst and malaise is classic.

  • Oh, how wrong you were.

  • what the fuk???? your serisouly tappd mush

  • wut?

  • Haha. Someone left the "You gonna get raped" caption off.

  • This is true...

  • dumbest animals ever

  • what the fuck

  • Comment removed

  • It looks like a Lynch film :)

  • yee, in Lynch style totally..

  • this is so David lynch inspired. <3 great band, awesome video.

  • The ceiling tiles framing them at 2:17 is pretty rad.

  • epic

  • everything about this is genius!

  • 3:45 - warning - mixing pop rocks with diet coke may lead to sudden death.

  • 0:26 - warning: mixing pop rocks with diet coke can make your mouth bleed.

  • cool melody ! but live is terrible ...

  • Cool Video. Thanks for sharing!

  • i am head over heels hopelessly in love with this song. the video is ok but i wish it was something simple like the band playing this song. lol. love it.

  • Haha I love how people think this is emo.

    Jesus christ. This generation is fucked.

    P.S. Great band. Great song.

    Fuck what people say.

  • maybe your the  one who is elmo

  • maybe your the one who is elmo

  • This video is very Lynchian. Kinda feels like Mulholland Drive.

  • Handsome Furs are not emo. Get your terminology straight, kids.

    Dan B's voice and compositions are amazing.

  • i dont get it

  • Just because its a sad song doesnt make it emo Frimann23. I hate people that think all down beat tempos are emo. Yes its a sad song but its also pretty.

  • I love the song - but I can understand the movie ???

  • Saw Handsome Furs last night. They're really passionate about their music and put on an awesome show. Both of them are terribly nice and good people.

    SEE THEM IF THEY COME TO YOUR TOWN!

  • very mellow punk goth like shit. seriously depro......COOL

  • i think both the song and video is truly amazing =]

  • This is a story of how two flemboyotic rembolids can make it in the rectilifyed world, that made their hearts spurn the absence of togetherness on the day that the sun no longer gives it's light. which will be very soon.

  • THIS IS FRIKEN STUPID!

  • @Stopanimalabuse21210

    no sir. you are :D

  • I loved this song and read most of the comments and if you did not like it, you are probably warped to love (c)rap and lack any sensibility in the music of life. I would stop and open up a bit in life as well if I were you...oh well, if I were you I would be doing the same thing you are doing. What a shame you won't see this comment.

  • It was easily THE BEST music video I have ever seen, very much in the vein of a David Lynch film.

    I can understand the negative comments made by the people who expect the same commercial consumer crap out of a music video. This music and the video are obviously beyond their cerebral scope and comprehension.

  • Fucking Brilliant! To me this song is all about society, an how people are like sheep, dumb animals, who are so easily controlled. Him and her are cuffed and put on the bed by some corporate pig. Theres alot of white lighting round' dark background, shows eyes like from "deer's eye in headlights" Really sharp and vivid imagery. Notice the skull ring of driver, i saw that as the two in back were just so passive, and the person driving was like the corrupt leaders in power. Great song, i loved it

  • omg

  • douche

  • The song was great.

  • This simply rules

  • where's the animals????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • its the name of the song. durrr

  • walking w/ shoes on.

  • This song is amazing. I love the video too.

  • Your taste in music Yuk!

  • TREMENDOUS RECORD! easily Top 5 of 2007

    Get with it you beige robots

  • there wasnt any animals -.-

  • yeah there were ya retard..

    you saw humans no?

  • Creepy.

  • that shot of them walking down the hall is awesome

  • Yuk!

  • im obsessed with this song..whats the name of this band and stuffff? dumb animals? :/

  • the band is called The Handsome Furs

  • if only they didn't use a drum machine

  • i love the drum machine

    i think it gives them an interesting sound

  • oh yer kidding?! those drums sound so reverberated and full!! what a shame..

  • Boring video. Too bad because the song is good and I really like this band - and the album.

    It was more interesting to look the "Related" videos tab, since they forgot to include "Handsome Furs" in the title you get stuff like: crazy animals, talking animals, funny animals, cute animals... a video called "Animals that are better than you" and "Homosexuality in Animals".

  • you wanna watch a boring video? watch interpol's heinrich manuveur.

  • I love this song!!!

  • Where are the dumb animals at?? :S

  • Humans

  • i liked it, but im more reggeaton and hip-hop/rap

  • This is Handsome Furs ... the album is call Plague Park

  • ehy does anyone know the name of this band, its not often one finds real music.

    pax et bonum.

  • WOW!!! I like it so much! I think they are like "The Cure" in their best years!!!

  • where the animals

  • worst-parents-contest??

  • This sounds so much like Wolf Parade. Does anybody know if it's the same lead singer?

  • yep...same guy from wolf parade.

  • Oh, well, now I realize that if I'd just looked at the other comments I wouldn't have had to ask.... Thanks for posting, though!

  • it is

    he is in handomse furs, wolf parade, sunset rubdown and frog eyes

  • You're thinking of Spencer Krug. Dan Boekner is in Handsome Furs and Wolf Parade.

  • is a pure sheet, pa te tic, es una cagada esto

  • shut the fuck up u asshole,u expect us to believe u?

  • plz everyone watch and rate my video of my kitty satchel! she is sooo cute and friendly! More videos to come!! The name of the video is Satchel the cat comes when called. Please visit my channel. THX! :)

  • Creepily cool video: I love it!

  • AGAIN>>> Yes he ( Dan Boeckner ) IS one of two singers in wolfparade ......he sings 'shine a light'...'this hearts on fire' ....etc.... Spencer (of Sunset Rubdown etc) is the other singer.....he sings 'grounds for divorce' and 'I'll believe in anything' etc......

  • both wolf parade singers sound very similar and "their" voice is a very unique one...so basically there are now 4 bands that sound eerily familiar to each other...hmmmmm, we need 4 more indie rock bands that sound like each other?

  • the song is good though

  • What? Do you except them to stop making music because they sound too much like THEMSELVES???

  • wow did I say any of that? Yes I've listened to that record repeatedly...and no, I like handsome furs, sunset rubdown isn't the best...just my opinion...get over it.

  • yes....he is also the singer in Wolf Parade

  • hes not the singer, hes the lead guitarist..

    the singer has Sunset Rubdown and Swan lake.

  • Dan and Spencer both write songs and sing songs for Wolf Parade. Have you even listened to the record? I happen to think Dan's songs are better, despite him being less popular (seemingly).

  • so, uh, is there a connection with Wolf Parade or are both singers ironically identical sounding and backed by the same lable? correct me if I'm wrong

  • I love this viedo.

  • spammers, go away
