The Format - The Compromise [Official Music Video]

[haileypr101]

I LOVE THIS

[brigettedeva]

Swan...doing the robot doing lol and popping!!!

[chazfosse]

Format is good, fun. just was an improvement! ---> Fun. fan.

[olaa1897]

It's so fun.

[erinnVM]

In my math class we watched a documentary about origami, and they played this music video. I screamed and fell out of my chair.

[mcrgiantsfan]

I would NOT want to be the person that had to make all of that origami...

[dbway88]

Love won't compromise because it isn't real.

[JoeMudd123]

Oh my god, this sounds amazing! The Sims 2 version gets on my nerves.

[SetTheStageOfficial]

For some reason, this band makes me nostalgic. The weird part? Today is the first day I heard them.

[jjd123ity]

@SetTheStageOfficial I totally get that too

[MorganLeigh1298]

Snapplause. :3

[3dg4r95]

They combined Origami with Music Incredible. Not to mention the Armadillo-Lion and the Polycephaly Dragon.

[VikkiDank9124]

Omg I be en looking for this song for Everrrrr haha Finally lol I like this song lol(: n what it's on sims sweet I'ma look it up lol nice

[NoteOnMyBed]

I was so surprised when one day when i was listening to songs on the sims 2 i found this there :D

[KingSuperFart]

Sims 2 bought me here.

[userame7991]

Notice how nobody is arguing in the comments. They've all met each other in the middle and made up a dance. And then compromised.

By the way, the octopus is awesome.

[slkr99]

@userame7991 hellz yeah!

[ThatRandomDude98]

thumbs up if you heard this song in the sims

[crustie1996]

I always listen to this on the Sims 2. I love it.

[FuzzyFuzzBall1]

i wish i could sing like him...the format+fun.=♥

[redfoxskater]

Swan + Fox = Dragon!

[dantheman1689]

the peacock in the video is a foreshadowing of fun's album cover

[Charmalade]

For the longest time, I thought he was singing "come on, let's make a be-dance."

I know that it's "let's make up a dance," but I STILL hear the wrong way. Dang.

[littlemisDana]

This song helped me remember metaphase in Mitosis(:

[quinlynnes]

@littlemisDana Lol, I am curious as to how.

[littlemisDana]

@quinlynnes it's like "meet me in the middle, come on let's make up a dance" (:

[BadLuck130]

The video is really awesome, but I like fun. better  ;)

[skintooth4]

what happened to this band?

[SEALsniper17]

@skintooth4 They turned into fun. Literally.

[love2liveit]

@skintooth4 Haha, the new band's name is "fun." with a period at the end:P Same types of songs and same beautiful voice:)

[ccbc23]

chorus is fantastic.

[joseyZOMBIEFACE]

meeet me in the middle <3 (:

dont ask questions! just sign on the dotted line!

[requiemforatrain94]

Nate Ruess!

[eenayeah]

This video must have took like 2 or 3 days because of the stop motion. The Whole video is in stop motion. Or maybe not?

I remember hearing this for the first time in The Sims 2 Pets, I immediately liked it.

[300MUSIC]

This is what cool sounds like! :)

[Kyrson]

@300MUSIC if you wanna know what fun sounds like...listen to...uh...Fun.

[luvino4evr]

Just kinda realized the sun is very beautiful in this video.

[serranofan93]

I found this song finally, thanks to sims 2!

[pcd295]

Sims 2 introduce me to awesome bands (:

[rosemaman]

@pcd295 ahah! me TOO! specialy, A Cursive Memory..wow, I am a big fan now..lol

[LBell830]

Nate Ruess has this weird thing about being in amazing bands. Its strange. :)

[cu113nd3an]

@OnlyOneMoreSleep get a decent taste in everything nate looks like a god with long hair...! :O

[Megannini]

this is cute. (:

[Jmc2793]

I remember this from the Sims

[Icycoldgreen15]

Love the headbanging animals!

[derek0660]

this is my new favorite music video.

[mymusicisyou]

I absolutely adore this song. Both Fun. and The Format are amazing! Nate Ruess is a genius. :)

[giveemetherapy]

god i love this band

[nametroubles]

if i see one more music video where the band is converted into a cartoon....

[zoomburger412]

@nametroubles technically it's not a cartoon...

[nametroubles]

@zoomburger412 well, that's a point not worth bringing up...

[zoomburger412]

@nametroubles and your comments were?

[nametroubles]

@zoomburger412 you seem to think so.

[300MUSIC]

This is what awesome sounds like. :)

[rochelimit55555]

Sims 2 !

[Storylover42]

@rochelimit55555 Thats how i found this song!

[hersh1314]

wait is this tha real video???

[KeJack15]

This video is about sex!!

[Domzdream]

Oh, NOOOOOOOO. Stupid youtube people! They yet again, progressed and regressed in the comments! The silly twats made the spacing wider . but now they've taken the highlight out of the user's name . So now, we have to slowly get more headaches by scrolling through the bejillion comments to find your name and comment.

What the FUCK is youtube doing?????? Get the shit sorted out, dick-slaps!

[Domzdream]

Oh, NO. They yet again, progressed and regressed in the comments! The silly twats made the spacing wider (yay!) but now they've taken the highlight out of the user's

[OnlyOneMoreSleep]

i like nate better with short hair ^^

[OnlyOneMoreSleep]

hey, i know this song 0.o

i really play too much sims ;)

[enoching7]

almost exactly like Fun.'s aim and ignite album

[TheSecondManDown]

Its not as much that the origami would take weeks its that the entire video is in stop motion and one minute of SIMPLE stuff is like  2 hours. This kind of stuff would take easily a day of HARD work for a minute

[Chrisyee98]

it must have taken hours to do this video... there's so much origami in it!

[bluedisc]

@Chrisyee98 HOURS?! I'm SURE IT TOOK WEEKS!

[oliveira1294]

So fucking good.

[x3Rawrbbyilux3]

Hollister Music!

xD

[NNYownz]

@x3Rawrbbyilux3

this makes me sad

[DaniB4321]

Im not sure, but i think the singer of the format is in a new band called fun : )

[Emmatd]

@DaniB4321 indeed

[SuperFullsail]

@DaniB4321 yes he is the lead singer of "Fun." After the "Format" broke up he started "Fun."

[SOMEGiRlx34]

yeahhh he is

[OnlyOneMoreSleep]

@DaniB4321 NO WAY.

And, fyi, that is meant really sarcastic.

[derek0660]

@DaniB4321 definitely. the format came first though [:

[alienzandzombiez]

@DaniB4321 that is very true, and they are very amazing

[itsRachelsaurus]

And we'll agree to call it the compromise.

[marianislikesocool]

WE'LL COME OUT LETS MAKE UP A DANCE

[indiekid531]

[lSaraHl]

Anyone who thinks that being influenced by Queen is an insult, is messed! I would think that's a huge compliment!

[chenchingwang]

i think .fun sounds like they were influenced by queen. that's just my opinion. i'm not insulting them or anything. i think its cool.
