"Justin is the last great romantic poet"!

[PaulMdx]

Great bass.

[NeverQuiteElegant]

Oh my god, this song is ridiculously fit <3

[Hucksyboy10]

[robertfarrelltv]

@Hucksyboy10 it is justin from the vaccines aha, known as jay jay pistolet when this was released however.

[sameairmax]

[doomman355]

frank turner <3 

[katharynerevell]

Ha singer from the vaccines, so much better when he was singing on his own.

[leaguesmanoframsgate]

Just been told that my lyrics channel this guy, despite never actually having heard of him before the person in question told me this. The fact that I do gladdens my heart.

[youtoobe31]

5 people have got to be deaf...

[ALLIHAVE21]

this is my anthem : )

and it always will be.

absoultly mind blowing stuff....

[cuntflappers]

Frank is God :D

[fernandoarrue87]

@cuntflappers But, per Frank, there is no God...

[jewishmansjew]

frank is grrrrreat ,million dead rule too!!

[ParamoreChica]

I'm so glad that I got introduced to Frank Turner. One of the reasons I actually appreciate good music now.

Thank you, Frank. <3

[chexycat]

I like the holloways references in the video as i love the holloways almost as much as frank. i think this is a very humbeling song... kind if makes you realise whats really important.... well i think most of franks song do that tbf

[starlitkiwi]

Amazing song. Amazing bloke. Amazing guitar :)

[lolj4]

Although Frank has a song called the Ballad of me and my Friends. Well, this song is truely the Ballad of me and my Friends. Thank You Frank Turner.

[Army88Z]

Heard Frank Turner live for the first time with Flogging Molly and from then on he has taken up a lot of my ipod time. GREAT music

[LukeReece13]

[mwstakyle]

1:14 BEANS ON TOAST!

[nielsboex]

who the hell is prufrock ?

[Kaprioleczka]

@nielsboex "Prufrock" is the other name for an american poem "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock", by T. S. Eliot. You can easily google it. 

[nielsboex]

@Kaprioleczka

Thanks, but I already googled it after I posted my previous comment.

[Kaprioleczka]

@nielsboex - than maybe it will be useful for someone else ;)) 

[DietDrMario]

why have a dislike button for music...honestly....its just asking for hate.I dont like Justin Beiber but i dont go on his videos JUST to dislike them,neither do i go to music videos JUST to comment on how much i hate the song...Just enjoy the music

[MyThoughtsAreBelow]

Great song

[msjaprufrock]

Great song! I came across you after someone commented on my username and asked if I was a fan of yours. I'm glad they asked me now, as I've discovered your music as a result. Oh, my username's the result of being a big T.S.Eliot fan. ;-)

[TheLeardMan]

Wooo, Reading 2010.

[weegregrfc]

franks great was nambuca rebuilt

[mcfarlanerd]

@weegregrfc Nah, but Jay bought another place in London called "The Flower Pot"

It's in The Road video.

[marbacc]

@mcfarlanerd I had no idea he bought it. Thanks for that info.

[omgitsbenandaaron]

[3DudettesandaCamera]

@omgitsbenandaaron omg same!!! :)))) xxxx

[meestafeesh]

I'm kicking myself for having never heard of this guy before . . .

[Kakuoteyalu]

The lyrics in this song are just brilliant, especially the last verse. Simply brilliant.

[kickharrypotter]

fantastic. simply fantastic.

[bluesgunner]

RIP Nambucca.

[Purejedi93]

Just noticed beans on toast is in this video! Brilliant! Also, Frank is brilliant as always.

[officercivilian]

@Purejedi93 The line "Jay is our St George, and he's standing on a wooden chair,

And he sings songs and he slays dragons, and he's losing all his hair." is about beans on toast. Just a little fun fact :)

[rwd1968]

Rob FrankTurnerTickets

Mad Scientist.

There is an underscore between Rob and Frank. There is an at before mad. And dots between mad and scientist.

See if it will let me.

[rampaginwalrus]

@SirAshmannOfTheShire; Bob Dylan.

[dorothyxjoy]

lol, I love how he's wearing the same shirt in Reasons Not To Be An Idiot.

[jr929292]

haha, he wore the same shirt when i went to see him last night at middlesbrough music live

[kornrule12]

Absoulutely amazing. He's gonna get big i can feel it.

[nf00523]

you're a fucking legend frank and you inspire me.

[shanodindryad]

Life is about, last minutes and last evening, about fire in our bellies and about furtive little feelings.

You said it, Frank :)

[the8tharmy]

I love that line, so meaningfull :D

And like the way he almost shouts it and everything :D

[cassiusio]

This video does not do the song any justice ;\

[propermintgib]

A poem by T.S Eliot.

'The love song of J. Alfred Prufrock.'

[aswebs]

who's prufrock?

[PresidentOfInternet]

oh god

i feel physically sick at the sickening behavior of frank turner

i know want to just be LEFT ALONE

[sum4182]

serouisly, if you have a problem with this just piss off and stop watching it.

Everyone on this page has nothign but nice stuff to say about Frank so why be a dick and ruin it?

[Vershinin08]

i like frank a lot more than i like you.

fuck off.

[Bioxide]

Couldn't have said it better myself.

fuck off

[BlueSmartieDude]

What the fuck is your problem?

I don't understand why people enjoy starting flame wars by going onto band videos and making negative comments. There are only 2 reasons I can think of. You are either a cunt, or due to your abnormally small penis, you have no sex life. And Frank Turner rules, you dickhead.

[hamex27]

Well said

[ExUSSailor]

@BlueSmartieDude Small minds that are not capable of creating anything, and they're just jealous. Just ignore the douchebags. Frank Turner is an amazing artist, and one of the coolest, nicest people I've ever had the pleasure of meeting.

[nootsadog1]

@BlueSmartieDude

I know what you're trying to say but some people have different opinions to others, so if you don't like flame wars don't get involved in 'em. :)

[SuperRavensoul]

@BlueSmartieDude nevr heard this guy until today awesome and going to see him next week can't wait

[SpykoXX]

@BlueSmartieDude as much as you are right sir i am quite guilty of such things and use the excuse that through expressing my opinion and having people question it makes me less ignorant however i tend to try and keep it from becoming just an argument unless someone steps over the line

[BadlanAlun]

Saw Frank on tuesday night in Rock City. He signed my ticket. He's a thoroughly, bloody nice chap. ;)

[LostRiot]

every morning I have to walk out of my door and look at nambucca's burnt out shell across the road. Still can't believe it burnt down. Also, this video is good.

[yamahapacifita]

What?

[nicholaswatmough]

Nambucca, where Frank played most of his early gigs as a budding solo artist, and its in this (I think?) and it sadly burnt down.

[redjacketindiehat]

NO?! really? when did this happen. iwas gonna go there this weekend ?!?! you scared me

[cherrycheesecake38]

Frank Turner rocks my sock DRAWER

[kamelrov]

Frank Turner is very good.

[iamjoemckim]

Yes thatss jay!!

i beg you all listen to MDMamazing by him!

[GoSquareGo]

At about 1:20, is that the guy from Beans On Toast? I have to say this is arguably my favourite song of all time. Real emotion and someone who finally gives a fuck what they are singing about. Thanks for uploading.

[JoelCrisp]

I worked in Nambucca. Most of those people are my friends. Watching this makes me really.... really miss Nambucca, I have to admit I welled up a little.

The only thing thats left to do is live....

[peanut29]

y is there a holloway reference

[reayadam]

they used to practise at nambucca, where this video was filmed.

and got their name from the road it's on - holloway.

[diggieman]

This is my FAV Frank song - These lyrics TOTALY sum up life for me:

"Life is about love, last minutes and lost evenings, About fire in our bellies and about furtive little feelings

And the aching amplitudes that set our needles all flickering

And they help us with remembering that the only thing left to do is live"

Awesome!There IS no other point!

He's the first new artist who's made me feel alive in a long time.

He does it for me in LITERALLY every way,ohh yessss.

[TheLastEmoKid]

Re: Who's Prufrock?

Prufrock is narrator of the poem The Lovesong of J. Alfred Prufrock by T.S. Eliot. You should read it.

O tempora o mores!

[stoopidkev]

Every time someone asks me if I could be anyone famous I say frank turner, because a) he's incredible and b) he'd probably tell me to be myself. Long live Frank.

[LostRiot]

This looks like it was filmed in Nambucca, :(

[coolcooljs]

Whos Prufrock ????!

[Scarpery]

How is this guy not more famous? I absolutely love all of Frank's stuff :D

[jprigby91]

definitely in my top 5 songs ever. such a great climax to the song and great lyrics.

[lozblackfriday]

i love this song.

yeah anyone have tab/chords for this?

[h1lleard]

i need the chords for this :D

the ones on 911 tabs and stuff are all wrong

[pgwyn11]

Try sticking a capo on 3rd fret standard tuning, and playing an A (let's begin at the beginning) then A (add d) and Em..that should get you started.

[h1lleard]

wow thanks man, it works lol....

thanks again i owe you one

[pgwyn11]

No worries, and it is E not Em, sorry

Long Live Frank!

[foriamtheway]

Frank is a fucking hero :)

[pcnr2004]

Would have to say that I think the video really does suit the song... Really is a very talented guy!

[pickd66]

the video is amazing and perfect for the song so anyone who sais it is bad has no understanding of the song

[blindsilksheet]

Nike.... ?! Ahem... had to be said...

[budders444]

great song

[pokemonparty]

<3 Love.Frank.Turner <3

[Chris1013]

I get what people are saying, however, low budget doesn't always = bad. I think this vid is supposed to be low key and subtle. It'd made me smile when I saw Holloway references, or when Beans popped up... anyone know where it was filmed?

[ravi165]

nambucca

[Chris1013]

Well that makes sense doesn't it! (doh)

[samtotherescue]

did I spot Bars Lightyear in there?

[nickwoott]

This is a shit video

I love Frank Turner, and this is an awesome song. But a dogshit video.

5 stars

[SuperHenry18]

It's just basically showing you who's in the song..

...but in video!

[Andy3920]

Nice video. Matches my perception/take of the song anayway.

[Gamble47]

Haha! I think some have missed the whole point, whether there was supposed to be a 'point' of the homemade vid, well I for one love it!! Nothing like a nice bit of understatement to make a statement :)

[thrashgordon]

video is painfully low budget, a song this amazing deserves better in my opinion.

[stewebster]

mate. i love frank turner more than most but i have to say pull the video, it does the song absolutley no justice and it will only badly promote you. if you want i'll do you one cheaper and better. just for your own sake pull it...

[lewpal]

that vid was tits, ur all cunts and ugly bastards x

[bradley7205]

song  awsome vid redo!!!!!!!!! did u make the vid on like £20

[Biffyrule]

Beans on Toast = legend =D

[eojdrol]

I'm nuts about Frankie T, I've met him, I'm seeing him at Leeds next weekend etc... But that vide was pants.

The song is amazing and has so much more potential =O

[whitefanguk]

Decent song, average video...Lots of references to the Holloways

[iscientist]

cunt - good song see you at leeds, not you gleemingteethgb though

[c0mpr3nd3]
