  • amazing

    one of the greatest songs ive ever heard

    the vocal harmony is beyond perfect

    THIS SONG NEEDS AN OFFICIAL VIDEO

  • this is the best version of this song online IMO

  • Reminds me of my last nz bus tour, the bus driver told personal stories about his town too. Amazing song, can't believe I only discovered it today. FOTC FTW!

  • Jack Johnson eat your heart out!

  • If anyone else has been on a coach tour they'll agree that the commentary is just like that! its brilliant, some of it sounds completley made up. It doesnt matter though, its a beautiful country, and i love it!

  • Am I the only one who gets really sad after listening to this song?

  • I did Her !

  • My favourite FOTC song, I almost orgasmed when they played it at Wembley.

  • I love this song. I remember I heard it ages ago, before they had the American TV show etc and thought it was pretty lols. It's so perfectly small town NZ. Museum of Meat. Gosh.

  • I can't believe it's taken me 2 years 2 discover how awesome these guys are

  • Comment removed

  • Luv the description of this vid... i can sooo relate...

  • Great job! XD

  • nice

  • @rachel00000000 New zeland is small dude lol

  • nice video

  • Good on you! My favourite FOTC song ever. I am so confused though - I just watched the series 2 New Zealand Town ep and they totally built up to Bus Driver's Song but it never came except just the tune over the credits. Sadness

  • I know. I was rearing to go. I knew I'd like this version better (like how I like the live version of Petrov better than the show's version), but it would have been nice to hear it.

    Oh well.

  • nice job

  • very nice, this one of my all time fave fotc songs, I wish they had somehow managed to fit in the series, but oh well, still amazing

  • When was this song made? It wasn't in the series was it?

  • s2 ep8 - 'newzelandtown', at the very end when brian is longing after that woman in the middle of the street, the tune comes on with a bit of whistling but no words!! gutting, amazing song!!

  • Good job XD

  • nice montage - thanks. :-)

  • I really didn't think you could make a FotC vid to this song, but you did it really well! I've love this song (and it's a shame they didn't use it on the series!) and I really like how you interpreted the lyrics to fit the footage (I like Sally = Paula, and even all the little things like "bridge" and showing the bridge behind Jemaine in 1x01. Clever!)

    Nice work!!

  • fuking epic!! i love these 2.. murry is also the man!!!!!!!!!! im a local wea these 3 come from!!!!!!!

  • i saw them perform this song live and it was sooo good! <3 i love them sooooooo much

  • Aw, I'm envious of you. It's definitely one of my favourites. European tour, please?

  • haha i saw them in chicago. they were so funny. i also kind of died that night from being in their presence. *angels sing*

  • I think it just boils down to Jemaine having more charism, which shows in his singing & comedic timing.

  • bret has a great voice, but his singing is more conventional than jamaine's... jamaine has a unique, beautiful voice!

  • I've never heard this whole song...I can see why it's Jemaine's favorite of all their songs, it's lovely. Bret DOES have a beautiful voice...Someone mentioned that it has a Beatle like quality to it, it does, Jemaine reminds me of John (serious and intense at times, always funny) and Bret (happy and whimsical, brilliantly talented on any instrument that he plays), Paul, truly a genius duo!

  • this video was really well done! I'm sure it would be even better if it were redone to include clips from New Zealand Town.

  • hey, fashion is danger was incredible! But I agree I was soooooooo disappointed when this song wasn't included; it was so clearly set up for it and cut out....

  • Why would they set the entire show up for it and then take it out. You could tell it was removed too there was a good 7 min left in the time slot

  • Im so pissed that they did not fuckin use it in the episode

  • I DIED INSIDE WHEN THE CREDITS PASSED AND THEY ONLY PLAYED THE INSTRUMENTAL. D: I'm thinking they're still going to play it, though... Fingers crossed for a running joke!

  • Hahah maybe they will open with it. It wont be the same though lol. I mean it was so set up for them to use it. I felt like an asshole after texting people being like yooo this next song is sick!

  • Amazingly done!

  • That's not a sheep dog

  • awsome vido love it, cracking song aswell

  • i love em

  • cool work sport...procrastinating some would call it...others would prefer to say ...waiting for the right moment...neat vid..these guys ...these damn guys...

  • perfect video!

  • Excellent video, well done from the clips of the show. I really enjoyed it and it goes straight to my favorites.

    First I ignored this song, then I found it quite funny actually and now I think it's in their top 3 probably, but it's the only one that I don't see as comedy anymore. It's their saddest and most touching song; very lifelike. What a great character reminiscing that Paula and letting himself accidentally get emotional. "Some things just don't work out that way" Brilliant!

  • Hahaha, just heard the album, amazing! I love those guys.

  • Is it me, or does Jermaine sounds a bit like Damon Albarn, at least in this song?

  • I agree.

  • yay, Norway was mentioned! Funny how it always gets mentioned whenever a small unknown country is mentioned

  • Very clever video mate, well done!

  • the dogs scary

  • What a great vid!

  • Note the mosaic wall.

  • Paula! Paula Thompson . . . !

    *I can't figure out the next line :(

  • "née Paula Wright"

    It basically means that her maiden name was Paula Wright.

    Great song!

  • i was wondering if you've made more?

  • wow! what a video remix! that was very creative and clever! I am getting such a kick out of this! thanks!

  • Ironicly, I am watching this vid while putting off doing work, and generally procrastinating.

  • ya but dont feel bad lol that's exactly what I'm doing lol

  • you made the video after avoiding work, and im watching it after avoiding work! go figure!

  • That is one of their best tunes. Every thing they do is absolutely awesome. I just watched Eagle Vs. Shark and loved it.

  • Great work! Only just found this vid and really enjoyed it!  Check out my take on the Bus Driver's Song in my video list.

  • ★★★★★

  • i love this song. i love this band!

  • if they put this in the series it can't be in new york...

  • the series is in new york, and this song isnt in the series. the songs from 'folk the world tour' i think

  • Guess you can't really fit a song about NZ into a series set NY!!

  • how come this song never made it into the show?

  • There is still the second season

  • yeah really good video- I normally don't like "fan videos"

    This is a great music video montage. Very fun. Awesome!

  • my favorite FOTC song

  • mine too

  • great video!!!!!!

  • that was great!!

    i loveed it!

    i hope they do this song in the series, it's one of my faves!

  • No apologies necessary; this vid is awesome!

  • "That's the sock factory" hahaha

  • I laughed out loud at how you've matched the video with the song - good on ya!
