I think I speak for everyone when I say that almost all music videos now includes half-naked women dancing sexy and a rapper that the girls then clings on.
But I think I prefer a man with a beard, playing guitar in the morning... singin' "God damn i miss that girl" ...
@ryan1059 there are editing filters that drop frames to make video appear like its in slow motion, but still match the speed of the audio. Also used in the Beastie Boys "So watcha want" video back in the 90s.
Great song and video, nonetheless. Simple and elegant, a real class act.
Hits me everytime I listen to it... which is often these days. If it wasn't for E and his Eels, this world would be off a lot worse, I believe. This is the kind of music that can really save lives...
Theres this "x- soulmate" of mine. And i will never forget her. What hurts the most is that i know she don`t care cause she don`t need me no more. She got all these strangers to fulfill her needs, to make her smile. She`s like a stranger today.
But i will always remember those small things we shared. My little bird.
Karen, i'll always love you. Even though we're nothing more than best friends now, I still miss every second that we were together. I saw the rest of my life in those beautiful hazel eyes of yours. Those beautiful eyes should've never had tears in them. I know you like someone else alot but im better than him because he doesn't even notice you half the time. There's still more to say but I'll stfu now.."god damn...I miss that girl... :'(("
i was introduced to this song by a friend and yes this song is so true and can relate to it and my friend listenes to these songs and has now turned his life around,i didnt get how ya could do that ,but listening to alot of these songs i get it xx thanx
@say12thebear so true. my girl left me out of nowhere in cruellest circumstances and im so devestated. still after everything she did i cant see my life without her in it. this song slays me everytime. hope your heart mends,feel like mine never will
@say12thebear I know exactly how you feel and it could'nt have been put any better. I bought this album at a very big part in my life where it was the only thing in my stereo. I cried til I shook. Right there with you. Cheers!
@skullrunner92 A lot of Eels songs in this vein - I highly recommend 'Novocaine for the soul', 'I need some sleep', 'Last Stop, this town' and 'Hey man, Now you're really living'.
Some absolutely blinding stuff from E and the band.
Girl, you broke my heart...even after 5 years I still hurt. God damn it I still miss her. :( Thanks Eels...I'm off to feed the little birds who hop around my balcony.
"E" might not win a new audience with this song or the album but he sure as hell can write songs and music that hit some spot - heart of stone if this one doesn't get to you
@quaich14 he won me i never heard them before but know am a fan!i love this song! In a few simple verses he conveyed what i have been feeling for the last 3 years. Now thats sad 3 years. What am i going to do? She was the only one.
I love the final picture of the guy glancing at the bird watching the sun .. Telling a little bird that showed up all his sadness on his mind because "right now it's he's only friend in the world" .. That really is, a very beautiful song...
The brilliance of his music is that he manages to write songs like this, but not appear self pitying at all. Just the right mix of hope and sadness in my opinion.
ive never heard Eels before this song and you know??? hes not a genius........... he's more like a songwriting god that has taken human form to please all people on this earth and die for our sins kinda like......morgan freeman...OMG! he is a white songwriting Morgan freeman!!!!!!!! pure perfection
Flawless as alwayz- please tour Australia this year E- no complaints, you gratefully get out here quite often & i'm alwayz emotionally/musically fullfilled! Thanx infinitely for your music & can't wait to hear the whole of new record....
@HippyToast95 im happy, i can now play this tune on my guitar, i do a pretty decent imitatio nof his voice as well lol, i just wish i had a grain of his talent ...goddam..what a genius
@imnothear hope in the 8 months since you posted this comment things are better. you re 8 months further on than my heartbreak so need to hear things get better. every song on this album describes my relationship and how it ended and how i feel now. need some hope it all turns out alright
god i get choked up everytime i love the simplicity in the music video too very much like hey man now you're really living he puts on a good show too and good god people read his book it is amazing
Little Bird is one of my fav songs. I know it's more of a break up song I suppose, but it embodies the battle with my health (and I am 'that girl', and I miss me).
Thank you E for giving the feelings in my heart words, and beautiful music to go with those lyrics, and for providing the soundtrack to my life.
There is only one problem with this song.
It ends.
