Cage The Elephant - Ain't No Rest For The Wicked

[noemiserlovesyou]

I saw them perform thi last night, and I still vcan't get over how amazing it was!!

[liammackenzie14]

when I heard this song on borderlands I knew it would be a kick-ass game

[MrGameFly]

need 10 bullets and an ak-47

[Sythine]

It's weird that in most songs are about the music but all they show in the videos are the vocalists.

[highrifle]

While this song is a personal favorite i have to admit, the music video is terrible. Not the worst ive ever seen but its terrible.

[sparkytrick]

@highrifle What makes it bad, particullarly?

[NathanJackLouttit]

its open to interpitation

[sunbrowa]

it so ture there anit no rest for the wicked but as long as you liveing for the matters the rest dont matter lol

[ThisIsNotKieranAllen]

Guys, i think this song is about the "wrongs" of prostitution and thievery as these guys are very devout christians..I also read it in an interview :)

[NathanJackLouttit]

u shitting?

[Skillerguy45]

@ThisIsNotKieranAllen Matt Schultz (Vocals) and Brad Schultz (Drums) are from Bowling Green, Kentucky. They lived a Christian childhood, going to church everyday. They were not allowed to listen to rock\pop music but they would always sneak in some music if they got the chance. They were known as the Christian hooligans of the neighborhood. They do have a link to Christianity but their wild stage performances and their other activities rebel their devout Christian life.

[WillWinz]

borderlands if epic

[troggdor4]

this song is perfect for borderlands,

seeing as how you're a mercenary in that game

[feel4chill]

ty agree but i dont know if i could say the same about the video

[jazzelineknox]

jared!!! yours soo hott! marry me?

[leaf98]

thank you fuse.

[ShleeMcgee013]

so the moral of this song is people will do what they can to get their hands on some money whether its bad or not .. right?

[MistaBoogums]

@ShleeMcgee013 yea basically "no rest for the wicked" means the unfortunate people in the world dont have rest because they are just trying to get by every day

[TheJosh246810]

alsome song love it mi fav at that

[spiritofthehawk18]

love the fact that this band is finally getting some recognition!!

used this song for the intro to Borderlands!

Nice group of guys!

catchy entertaining music.

Awesome song

[Caroline300035]

Money dont grow on trees

[SCARINABLE]

ye it does money is paper and paper grows on trees :)

[Seekcro]

Money isn't paper. It's technically gold. The bills we use are actually cloth, if that's what you were refering too.

[EIAercle]

good song crappy video

[NJJmylove]

I feel like such a total loser, but if it wasnt for hollister and google I would not have heard or known the song.

[faceslashedbypaper2]

ha. . .hes hallucinating the whole time

[funkbebe]

caged elephant doesn't read, at least not lately. in the age of corporate crime, a wall street heist, this is their song about evil?

petty criminals?

[DonovanDante]

How often does one run into Big Wig Crime People on Wall-street while walking down the street? Not very often, methinks. This song is more about every day evils, evils that one can find walking down the street.

[xmontagnax]

sickest song ever borderlands also best game

[ShadowGrawr]

The way he walks makes me giggle.

[arismerk72]

it's no good to be in so many explosions

[xXpacmanjrXx]

thats why hes walking funny

[arismerk72]

yep

[haku653]

its a music video about him stoned, he reacts to drugs like i do, things repeat, alot lol

2:35

[decooler1]

Acctualy its based on what his co worker said when he asked why he was a drug dealer. He said "There aint no rest for the wicked" so he made this song using that line.

[htmlgeek96]

YAY! 2K I owe you one for pointing me to this band!

[kexxrulz]

I love this song! Thanks borderlands!

[DrAbeGelly]

i listen to this song and in one ear every day

[richzimmer]

me too!

[Rocker2724]

these guys are a lot better live

[tr3ybeast]

awesome song true shit

[DeanLyman]

yep.

[drummerj1100]

song rocks true shit got my ass off the couch

[joezo360]

:D i try my best

[jcfan1000]

lol man that was perfect! you just made my day.

[jcfan1000]

i love how in the biginning he doesn't even try to help the other guys :)

[joezo360]

well he couldnt there aint no rest for the wicked eh?

[VideoGameMaster02]

this song fucking rocks

[benhelmer]

dude how much money yu get from contract with borderlands? play the game love it and your song lol !!!

[neontiger373]

I've had to have listened to Aint No Rest For The Wicked at least 500 times in a row... no joke... YOU GUYZ ROCK!!!!

[JustinforPrez]

I'm addictted to Borderlands, but I knew about this song long before it.

[sirus804]

Love this song. Listening to the lyrics shows that this song not only fits in with how Borderlands is presented but it fits the actual plot of the game.

[Stonr]

Cept money does grow on trees in borderlands.

[Zuphix]

there are no trees in borderlands? O.o

none significant for me to notice them atleast...

[decooler1]

Heard this song from Borderlands, I love it.

[skywalker040]

I love this song and watching the singer walk through the video like that just makes it better. I also think that a more realistic stumble, like he actually had a concussion would have made the video so much better. It's great as is though!

[kadeedearest]

love this vid!

[atllover1104]

i love the way he walks. does anybody else get what i mean? haha.

[idiiidit]

like a faggot?

[atllover1104]

no. like a freaking beast.

[NEXSTAR200]

damn good vid

[showofffreak]

why does he walk like that? good song for borderlands and in general.

[h8rsteve]

BORDERLANDS

[WarcraftShorts]

Fits very well with the theme of Borderlands. Good job Gearbox. And Cage The Elephant :P

[losertoes]

this band sounds kindof like The White Stripes

[Emzieroy]

Yea! Thats who I was thinking sung like this but I couldn't think of there name.

Thanks though haha

[xc568]

maybe it's because of the types of instruments they use

[Dasheeznit69]

Godamn, i love this song so much, thanks borderlands!

[iluvfreeonlinegames]

the song rules....just a weird vid lol

[ShinkuTenshi]

All thier stuff is a little weird. Thats what makes it so interesting. I like it when people dont act so bland like most other normal people.

[20isis12]

best song of theirs by far.....and matt if pretty damn hott in this!!<3

[tony736]

To the fellow hard rocking metalheads out there, why do we like this group so much??

Cuz... its not a metal thing so much as a PASSION, TALENT, and GIVE A F*** attitude.

No auto-tuners, no 'sing to the tracks', no whiny emo or scream-o. These bitches will bleed for it; you can see and hear that dedication.

[ItzTheX]

@tony736 I'm a meteal head and I love this band!!

[Rigid11494]

Any one else hear a resemblance to Beck from this band? Every time I hear this song I think it's Loser but then I listen to the lyrics lol Cage is awesome don't get me wrong just saying I hear some influence from Beck

[LadyRaederle]

Totally, but they are still really awesome. Actually, that's how I discovered them in the first place. I heard this song on the radio and turned it up before I noticed it was a different song. LOVE them, really. They are great live.

[ConfuseingGameing]

hell yes me too

[marisssa1988]

When I heard this song on Borderlands my boyfriend was like "Do you know who that is?" and I said "Beck?". So yeah, I totally see the resemblance between the two.

[Rigid11494]

Hahaha I got Borderlands the other day and started it up and was like SWEET Beck! Then I was like Ohh it's Cage, still good!

[marisssa1988]

Haha, I was quite pleased to rediscover them. I first heard of them when I saw them live. They were opening for the Subways, who I went to see almost 2 years ago now. They were a bit all over the place, so I didn't really care to check their stuff. They didn't even have an album out yet. And a few days ago I play Borderlands and I'm like "Woah! Cool song!". Of course, now I'm getting their album =)

[Verceti1]

I reckon it's that acoustic guitar in the background that makes it sound like 'loser'

[Godofallcows]

slide guitar yeah

[x1keeper1x]

haha ive seen this band live

[mrgradylong]

these guys are awesome, i dont like indie.

im all about metal, but this song is so good

[xxxdrugs4lozerzxxx]

ME TOO!!!! Here I am, the biggest Slipknot fan in the world and I'm listenin to this! It was a flippin' pain in the butt finding this too! I LOVE THIS SONG!

[THISisBUBBA]

ok this is a great song i love it but the video..ehh

[COWMAN12395]

i noe right its a great song

[irishdragon735]

i normally listen to metal and heavy shit...but i had no cd's in the car today, so i turned on the radio and this song was just.....so great to listen to while cruisin at a nice speed

[empress913]

lol i have no idea why but i enjoy this song and the video XD is that weird?!?! hahahaha

[lunafan90]

I rather like this song.

[UCoProductions]

y does he always walk like that

[rainbo1111]

his pants are to tight, XD thats why he walks funny.

[Tojo89]

How about y'all talk about the music video instead of something about countries. KREIGSMARINE!

[beauhawk17]

Thank god someone said it!!

Opps, I didn't mean god, I meant higher power if you choose to reconize or not...I mean not religion or power or...crap here comes another unrelated, youtube, I'm gonna talk shit from behind a computer screen argument.

But seriously, GREAT SONG GUYS!!

[xIIDuce]

Hmm yeah all yall who are complaining about people calling the U.S., America have a right too. But yall really shouldn't bitch. They are right too. The U.S.A. is the only country in the Americas that even has they name America in it. Therefore, they are right, and yall need to stop bitching, just because some History/ Geographical teacher told you that it is wrong to do so doesn't mean you argue a point.

[kdb955]

the U.S.A. uses the name "America" and everyone respects that. Even Canadians and Mexicans

Another name for the two land masses is "Columbia" but the Peoples Republic of Columbia just calls it's self Columbia.

We all call it that.

No one cares.

Get over it

[LiveAtFrys]

being Canadian i perfer the term "the Americas" or North American, eh

[BrendelxD]

If The White Stripes had a baby with Beck this is what it would be :D

[swrider5400]

No shit!!! With a teeny bit of Uncle Devo for this video..........

[AcademicDinosaur]

When he kind of danced it reminded me of Ian Curtis. :)

No, not because he had epilepsy, just when he danced.

I like this song... :D

[RioVeikien]

Yes technically "North America" is Mexico, USA, Canada, and Alaska of course but most people forget it is up there, also included are all of the little island countries that surround us above the Equator. But as when just referring to "America" 9 out of 10 people are talking about USA so please keep your ill advised and unlearned comments to yourself.

Thanks again

The Smart People

[haydonkb24]

your not so smart Alaska is part of the USA> DUH!!

[Tojo89]

according to him Alaska seceded from the states under the radar.

[johizzo]

ya fuck nugget alaska is a US state

[RioVeikien]

I agree I did word that wrong and yes it is a part of the USA the sad part is none of you had the intelligence to to post a decently proper reply but the fact of the matter is when people refer to America like I stated before 9 out of 10 times they are referring to the USA

Once again Thanks for showing your ignorance and inability to have a conversation without degrading another person or cursing in such a true ignorant American fashion

[beauhawk17]

Insulting peoples intelligence and calling them ignorant, all while having no respect for grammar or punctuation is great! I espesially enjoyed how your solution for someone degrading another, is by degrading them.

You sir, are a satirical genius. I shall name the high horse you sit upon, Irony!

Please focus on the music next time.

[RioVeikien]

2 days not bad longer than I expected for a decent reply and it still took over a week for an intelegent reply I thank you for your time and hope you have enjoyed being a part of my small yet quite effective experiment have a nice day I will not reply to anymore posts so do not waste your time

[zarud98]

*especially. i would like to name your horse irony too. haha

[jackojake]

these guys seem to remind me of a mix of white stripes and beck...

[elfcounsul]

Yeah, but there's something very Kentucky about them. The attitude, the vocals, and the way they move on stage.

They seem more irreverent and more approachable than the White Stripes.

Let's see how they develop over the next ten years.

[TeenageSuperdose]

Well that's good because they originate from Bowlingreen, KY :P

[BrendelxD]

omfg thats exactly what I thoguht lolz

[ImmortalCrimson]

Actually, when referring to America most people mean the United States. That is why they are called Americans and we are Canadians. Because if you look at it that way then if someone referred to just America then that would include South America too, no? Anyway why must everyone argue on these videos? Can't we all just get along and enjoy this music? Way to ruin it for everyone by swearing in the comments by the way nerds.

[zaytube]

This vid reminds me of Fear and Loathing. Only, alot more retarded. lol

I've never listened to these guys before. Pretty tight. Specially the lyrics.

[foekiller666]

love this song

[BrookeSpiffy]

Yeah, so is the U.S. and Mexico. They are all a part of America, "fool".

[rswsssds]

this vid sucks big time but the song is good

[jwdeb]

agreed. the vid is a little to "boulevard of broken dreams" for me

[nerdskii]

u guys are fucking stupid its north america is a part of canada the usa is a contry not a contenent there still apart of north america retards

[PublicFail]

Lmao contry lolol contnent, now who are YOU to call some1 retarded?

[ytnbsa]

why isn't the album version like this one, i prefer this version

[oscarry]

Because video footage can't be played on CD players ^_^

[alue142]

If you count America being north and south America yea canada is a part of it but if ur talking about the US being America then no of course canadas not a part of it!

[lessdigits]

Love the song...video,not so sure...

[Ilikepie97100]

I don't give a shit america sucks anyways

CANADA ' S the wayto go

[BrookeSpiffy]

Canada is part of America you dumb shit.

[bronxbombers787]

it really isnt.

[philr883]

hey you ignorant yankee CANADA IS PART OF AMERICA

Hilbillies like you should not talk THE US AND MEXICO ARE PART OF AMERICA TOO

next time think before you comment

[devileater]

One of two things are happening here. A) Obvious troll is obvious or B.) Obvious retard is obvious. Canada is NOT a part of the United states, but it IS a part of North America. Same with Mexico.

[SourAndSweet14]

Canada is a part of America retard.

I guess you don't live in Canada then.

Dumb ass.

[Tojo89]

I also like your Navy, rowboats with BB guns

[fuzzybear003]

SICK song!!@!@#!$ i luv it

[8ballsix27]

they all look like they have special needs. no offence to anyone.

[1234567jenny1234567]

i luv this freakii weird song thats good that it's freakii and weird

[joeappen]

Great tune!!!!

[devilbilly675]

i heard this song on the radio it was kick ass :)

[thehobowhocriedwolf]

good song, shitty video. they could make a better video, but the song is good

[slenderlatina]

One of my favorite songs. They should remake the video though with real life imagery. The video doesn't do the song justice at all.:(

[iLuvMassonMusso96]

<3 it!

[SugarbushGirl]

The video is kind of weird... But the song is freaking awesome!

[sexxiepie]

The end of this video is wicked Trippy

[BloodRedHalo656]

The Song is amazing... but the vid sucks imo...

[yahwehsway]

Agreed.

[nwilson92]

there a local band for me and there bad a!

[xxVeronica92xx]

can't believe i just ound out about this amazing band!! i loooove them soo much they are soo original! and different :)

[dangerousdandelion]

Wow music from the heavens! This is what music is all about!

[REBELsst]

they guys rock! im goin to see em on the 7th here in Cleveland!

[BASS677]

these guys rock. Bout time a song comes out that you can roll down the windows of ur car and just crank it up!!!!

[kkrashh]

Totally agree, definitely one of 'those' songs.

[BoxLineProductions]

awesome song

these guys r the best

[megakillyourself]

While I'm aware that everyone's entitled to an opinion, why do you all feel the need to repeat the same tripe hundreds of other people have already said? Sweet, he plays some slide guitar...what are the three other bands I've heard use a slide? Let me list them, in case you missed the identical posts under mine. And velociraptorking, I'm sorry to single you out, but you're a colossal tool.

[carguyinok]

A refreshing change. These guys show that there is hope for music today. Killer hooks, one of a kind sound, and they can throw it down live sounding just as good if not better..... I hope they make it !!!!!!!

[dommm360]

I agree with killer hooks, but they dont have an original sound to me. When I listen to these guys I hear beck, white stripes, and the black keys without a doubt.

[ocylot]

totally agree man great sound(mayb a little like white stripes but who cares they rock too) unfortuantely its hard for bands like this to make it because for some reason fermenting shit bands like Green Day are plugging up the air waves.

[BloodRedHalo656]

I HATE GREEN DAY... They made an album called American Idiot and it was a top seller, IN AMERICA. What the fuck is wrong with that picture? They need more stuff like this and Alternate Routes, or at least some more heavy stuff like Evile or Slayer. I like the Disturbed, and Staind they play these days but most of the time I get shit like Green Day.

[adsfmaniac]

lol the album wasnt about hating america genius it was them say how stupid the government was and how they hated the president tahts who the "american idiot" was

[BloodRedHalo656]

Let me take out of the lyrics.

"I don't wanna be an American Idiot. A whole nation controlled by the media."

The government isn't controlled by the media. They're talking about the American population. Don't defend them by turning it on the government.I hear that every time someone wants to defend an America hater, "Teyz jus talkin bout teh guverment." No they're not. They hate America.

[chughes44]

your an idiot if u think that the album was a diss for America.

[BloodRedHalo656]

What do you think it is then? It's nothing but stereotypical satires toward the American population. You should probably prove me wrong BEFORE you call me an idiot. And if you start talking about the government I think I'm gonna hurl, the album is not about the government or the president or some horseshit like that.

[DarthBaskett]

I love this song but the video made no sense well at least to me... I'm very very disappointed. I thought it would be more meaningful than that but while watching it I almost died because of how disappointed I was... That is depressing.

[surfpretzelbsa]

God-I love this:))))

[fatfoohy]

this song kicks so much butt, and has so much potential for a great music video, but this was oddly silly and dissapointing

[VelociraptorKing2030]

There aint no rest for the wicked.If their were,I'd be resting. XD

[sandersonAC]

Right on!

[itune41k]

Man this is great!

[onnaflower]

i nub this song. it makes me dry hump the air...there aint no rest fo the wicked..no rest i tell ya

[waterlilyflower235]

i luv this song sooooo much!! :D

[papilon93]

why haven't they hit the Dutch charts?

[reflectorrotcelfer]

hey guys, i just stumbled upon this song. i would like to kno if u guys have some tabs, or kno were i could get some. I would love to mess around with this.

[vespillo8]

chess im from louisville

[darthinvaderson]

Im from a small Versailles town in kentucky also. WERE KENTUCKIANS! KFC, BRO!

[goreguy1993]

whats amazing is that they are from bowling green kentucky, which is a small town in kentucky that i was born in and, well i am still in at this very second
