  • Anyone else hear tons of Radiohead in the solo?

  • Thank fucking god the new album isn't like this. 

  • LOVE this song. Incubus is still amazing as hell. To the "fans" who keep bitching about their changing sounds: "Cry if you want to, cry if you want to" WAHH WAHH!

  • eight, ive kind of been out in the middle of nowhere for most of the past couple of years, limited internet access (very limited) and i have not got a clue where to get songs like this, pantomime, punch drunk etc? they are on no album i have ever heard of. anyone care to help?

  • @TheBoyupstairs don't know if anyone has replied to this yet, but you get it on the second disc of monuments and melodies

  • This is Awesome!! Its's good to hear bands progressing.

  • Wow. Some people are seriously ignorant, huh? Bands, their musical style and everything that comes with being in a band changes, unlike your close minded views on 'music'.

  • looks like a jackson pollock in the background

  • This song is really awesome! <3

  • Epic song

  • A banda não amadureceu agora.

    Esse processo vem desde o 'Mornig View', pra não ter que citar o 'Make Yourself'.

    O 'ACLOTM' é um divisor de águas da banda, pois definiu os novos rumos e o novo foco: ser útil, artístico e original.

  • Comment removed

  • This song kicks ass. Thanks for reading, that's all.

  • me encanta este grupo, son los mejores no e odio ninguna cancion de ellos que no me guste

  • The solo in this song was obviously scrapped and used in the song Rouges. Im guessing Mike really liked what he was doing with an Envelope filter and a wah pedal ala radiohead. I enjoy both equally :)

  • LOoooooVee this song so much! They have soul!

  • incubus for shits alll over maroon five jesus chris is not even close lol ....p.s. michael enzigger is one of the best guitarists ever

  • I like how different this one is from the rest. It has its' own style and shows that Incubus can evolve and have fun with songs. And yes they say a lot more when you take apart the words and the way they're used. They are one of the best evolved bands out there. In MY eyes, they ARE the best ones... Pretty much all I listen to besides Muse, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Smashing Pumpkins, and some of the other bands from earlier like Aerosmith, Rolling Stones, etc. Great styles that they made their own

  • This song is dedicated to all those materialistic, high maintenance girls out there... ladies, hold up your golden plated cell phones, this one is for you!

  • This song is dedicated to all those materialistic girls out there.... ladies, hold up your golden plated cell phones...this one is for you!

  • i love the overdrive mike uses in this song.

  • I love their old stuff just as well as their new music. I grew up with them and matured as well since then. I swear they are pumping through my veins. There is no world without them! An unbelievably clever 5 men singing the deepest thoughts of my soul, which I couldn't even do in the simplest of words.

  • rayallove, you said it for me, again<33

  • @rayallove

    i feel exactly the same way :o

  • That's a badass picture.

    Also, this song is giving me hope. No more boring Light Grenades-esque seems like no longer a dream. <:

  • this doesn't sound much like them. but i could still tell if i didnt know.

  • Well I do love incubus on so many ways, and even though their music has evolved into something , my admiration to incubus will never change.

    My message to those who says bullshits about their change of style,there's a simple answer to that, don't listen to their music and go back to their old stuff everyone changes, because time passes by.

    Why are you viewing/listening on this video if you don't like / love it?

    Then stop watching and stop reacting if your only gonna say shit about it.

  • Ah, the whiners... haha. The irony...

    Just listen to KittysaysTaco ( interesting name xD ) ... If you don't like their newer stuff, sucks for you, go listen to their older stuff. But there are a LOT of TRUE fans who liked their stuff then and still like their stuff now. Or at least true fans don't whine about the "old incubus" ALL THE TIME. They've always been AMAZING in my opinion. Please stop bitching? thanks

  • No bitchin' here! Love the old stuff -- love the new tunes too. Incubus is simply one of the best and most versatile bands ever. Best of all -- they sound just as good live as the studio tracks.

  • did anyone notice how sick that bend sounds in the verses? love it

  • oh no.. they're still awesome till now..

  • I've been listening to Incubus for 10+ years and I didn't know they had any new music out until 3:00 this afternoon. I feel so shameful. What kind of a fan am I? I am so happy though. Rock the fuck on, Incubus, like usual.

  • 8D

    This is cool

  • holy shit i know you.

  • Umm, yes, you do. xD

  • Okay, before all of you start bitching.

    Take this in mind.

    Bands will change.

    Look at the Red Hot Chili Peppers for example. They used to rap about sex, women, drugs, and many other things.

    Now look at their latest album, Stadium Arcadium. It's more melodic.

    Incubus is going to change, they're growing older, they're maturing. Brandon's voice has changed. He's not gonna be the same.

    So don't be a fly in everyone's martini complaining, or we can give you something to cry about.

  • fucking well put man :)

  • ahahah, gotta phrase it like brandon to make a point to these people. >:)

  • @KittehsaysTaco this is a cover song.

  • @stuckmode this is not a cover song... it's an Incubus song they created during A Crow Left Of The Murder era

  • @stuckmode 'Let's go crazy' is a cover song

  • @KittehsaysTaco I agree with you about everything. Especially brandon's voice; I believe it's getting better. He can hit much higher notes than MY and sings older songs as well or better than before.

  • @KittehsaysTaco LOLOL. That comment owns ass. :')

  • @KittehsaysTaco love this song and yes ive been listening to them for over ten years now aint that somethin now aint that somethin

  • @KittehsaysTaco its not called melodic its called Making money. this shit is pop music. and its so simple a 5 year old could play it

  • @Evildeluxe u mad bro? 8)

  • @Evildeluxe What a fucking talented five year old!

  • @KittehsaysTaco New Incubus... Old Incubus.. they still rock!

  • @KittehsaysTaco Well said. I will forever be an Incubus fan and support them in what they do!

  • I think people need to undergo a screening process before being allowed to comment on youtube videos... People say the dumbest shit. And incubus is incubus. They have made so many different styles of music over the years and it makes them great. I don't know how people pick one album and go I only like that one. they're all good... and occassionlly with any band there are a few songs you dislike.

    Myung's comment made me happy :)

  • This song is wicked, if your dedicated to Incubus then it will grow on you trust, wasn't too fond either at 1st, tis a grower! :) X

  • Very true, about a week ago I posted that I don't like this song and now I do lol.

    The pre-chorus is amazing, I think the chorus is a little anti-climactic though.

  • medio tema :D!

  • I want old crazy Incubus back. q.q

  • this song is slutty haha

    in a good way :)

  • This song is just so amazing !

  • Awesome

  • It's an ok song but I don't like the way Brandon sings this one. Morning View is thier best album.

  • Youve got to dry your eyes baby,

    I know its your party and you,

    Oh that part just kills me!!!!!

    I love this song!

  • Are you comparing incubus with maroon5??

    Go see SCIENCE,CLOTM, Mornig view and tell me if that is Maroon5 you fucking muron! This is just 1% of incubus can do so ... yah..shut up.

  • Incubus is my favorite band, but I really don't like this song. It kinda falls flat IMO. They're still the best tho :)

  • Dude. Emo how? What? I'm confused

  • I actually said IMO, which is internet shorthand for "in my opinion". They were around before the 'emo' label existed. They were actually thrown into the nu metal category at first since they got a big break playing the Family Values tour and had a dj adding to their sound.

  • Ah. I see. Well cool. Nevermind then 8)

  • this sounds nothing like maroon 5....incubus shits on maroon5...

  • @jangles89 hell yeah einzigger anyone ?

  • u fckin son of a bitch, r u a faggot. this band ain't sound like maroon 5.....u must be deaf

  • @jangles89 there are kernels of corn in Incubus's shit that is more significant than Maroon 5

  • Love them! was font row center at the Atlanta concert Friday! LOVED IT!!AMAZING SHOW!

  • Best and Best, yeah....

  • I love it when they experiment (Y)

  • Very cool song, imho. It's got its own special feel and sound. And as always, Brandon's lyrics offer some pretty pointed and well-observed commentary. Just listen.

  • but actually this song is sick! :]

  • lol ^^

  • Why are you crying if you offer nothing at all?

  • well maybe you're looking for the wrong incubus

  • I completely disagree, lyrically they have only gotten way better, just read any lyrics off of a crow left of the murder

  • This and Diamonds and Coal rank up there with the worst from this band....but bad Incubus is still better than a lot of crap out there.

  • when people compare theiur older work they dont usually mean the Make Yourself Era. Its usually way farther back like pre-Fungus, Fungus an S.C.I.E.N.C.E. Incubus is often critized for selling out, which in case you dont know is changing ones beliefs and ways for more popularity or monetary gain. Which is exactly what they did. To suddenly go from like Shaft to like Stellar is, i dont even know, but theyve given up their old incubus ways to get famous.

  • Have you completely abandoned the fact that they have done nothing but make music their whole lives? its just an evolution of the music and themselves. Bands that are worth a shit do not have to change for anyone

  • Primus has been around for longer than Incubus and were actually their primary inspiration. Primus has managed to keep their same sounds throughout the years. Sure their not as famous as Incubus but they didnt change their ways and they still have a large dedicated fan base. I hate how people see funk/metal bands as not being "matured" and that moderate songs from songs like this are.

  • Yeah because they're just so unbelievably popular nowadays! Their old musical style would sound retarded if they were still releasing stuff today. They're playing music THEY want to play not what butthurt fanboys from 12 years ago want them to play. They are a better band today.

  • brandon oce said in an interview that the older incubus material was harder to make, but it was alot more fun to play. Just shows that Brandom misses the good old incubus days too.

  • As much as I love this song, I can't help but notice how different it sounds compared to "Dig", "Drive", and so on. Not only have their style of music has changed, but their lyrics as well. Songs from some of their previous albums sounded more, I guess, deep and down to earth. "Martini" just sounds... generic (i can't pinpoint the word I'm looking for). I love the new songs they've made, but they're definitely nowhere as good as the older ones.

  • Dig and this song were cut from the same studio sessions? Dig as one of their better older ones? Try YWBAHD or TMTYL or Anti-Gravity.

  • Hahaha.. you have no idea do you? Only Midnight Swim and Black Heart Inertia are new songs.. Every other song on the CD was made during a previous album recording session and left out of the disk.. so this whole old/new sound shit is completely made up by your imagination.

  • Yea, I've looked at their new album and I know that those two songs are the only new ones. Either way though, I'm sticking to what I think that their lyrics aren't as good as they used to be. If I did come off as looking like an idiot, oh well. -_- But was it necessary to be rude about it?

  • Yes it was, because I'm tired of people complaining that they "don't sound like they used to" and any variation of that.. thinking that they have changed even an inkling since SCIENCE. It's annoying.

  • If its annoying, then ignore it. Simple as that. If you're so tired of it, then don't read the comments or reply to them. It wasn't necessary to pick on me for being ignorant and having an opinion.

    You're going to run into people who have that opinion, so either suck it up or don't read the comments, smart one. -.-

  • How can I know what they're saying before I read the comments? Sucking it up would require some restraint on my part, but I don't want it to be a friendly place for dumb opinions. If you don't like their new music, just don't post about it.

  • First off, I didn't say I didn't like their new music. I said it wasn't as good as their older ones. Incubus always makes amazing music, and they always will in my eyes.

    The comments section on youtube is here for both negative and positive feedback about videos, so expect to find people with different opinions. You can either ignore the comments section to evade "dumb opinions", not hit the "reply" button to a damn comment, or reply to a comment without acting like a complete dick.

  • It's the internet, you have to be a dick to get the point across. I love you.

  • Freaking LOVE this song! I hope they start playing it live.

  • a sound of a matured band..

  • This Song is AWESOME!

    No Coments !

    Pd: El Solo se parece al de Rogues

  • incubus is turning mainstream and crap.

    i am so fucking disappointed!!!!

    their old stuff was so much more unique and magical. it's still them, and they still have their unique swizzle, but it's just...too conformist now!

  • i know its like you want them to get big and stuff but then you dont cuz then they get all mainstream and its not like special anymore!

  • (continuing from whre i left off with jeremy)They still magaged to keep some of that incubus magic But itd be nice if incubus at least tried to make a funk song every now and then.)

  • Fuck was lost when Dirk Lance left. Sorry, but I've never seen Ben Kenney slap...he's primarily a guitarist and singer, not a bassist, at least from the knowledge I have. Either stick to old Incubus, deal with the new stuff, or write your own funk music...I think those are your options. Personally I'm doing the second 2.

  • Actually Ben Kenney was primarily a drummer till he switched over to guitar and bass. He can slap and hes dont it a few times while playing Redefine and A certain shade of green. Look it up.

  • My knowledge on Ben Kenney is pretty limited, thanks for the enlightenment.

    Also I meant funk...I often make that typo...I still don't know how.

  • @DemonCrystal so you want to see Ben slap? watch?v=wzIjNJBgOAg redefine bass solo, he sure can slap bro.

  • I'm happy that their music has changed. It's shown how much they have developed as a band and it shows that they can do other styles instead of what they did with SCIENCE. I can listen to all of their stuff all day and I prefer their newer music rather than the older stuff it's so much more technical and unique.

  • yeah i feel the same way but you have to understand they had to change in order to survive as a band.. This isnt like back in the 80's when poeple appreciated unique and different music, not just what was mainstream. Bands liek Mr Bungle and Infectious Grooves didnt change and never really made it. These days people only like crappy old boy band bullshit music. Just be glad they dont sound like fall out boy.

  • I really like this song..the vocals sound different but it's cool never-the-less.

  • LOVE YOU MIKE!

  • Oh please I like this song, just imagine playing it in guitar, can someone tell me how to play this one? haha this is just cool and damn it really rocks!! ooohhh hhmmm dont be a fly my martini baby come on down!! hha srry

  • G open chord to G open 7th to D diad to C# diad. Verse starts with Bm at 7th fret, then to Em at 7th which enters a picking pattern with a shift to C7. The bridge is easy, but can't explain well here.

  • Thanks my man, you're the best, I tried playing with the chords and got it successful. Now I'm gonna do listen to the bridge part to learn it by ear~ Thanks again ^_^

  • this song is awesome!

    dont be a fly in my martini!...baby!

    come on down!....

    that roof is high...and im not climing tonight! come down!

    :)

  • i love the tune of the chorus its like a weird swirvy melody...

  • I think that one lyric is "Why are you crying? You are for nothing at all" but I don't know. "Are for" and "offer" can sound the same...

  • I was under the impression it was:

    "You owe for nothing at all"

    But that could equally be wrong...

  • mikes hair in this picture makes him look like eric clapton.....

  • love that crunch frm his overdrive..weesh

  • i like this! its got a different feel to it but hey...

  • yeah, it sounded like zee deveel.

  • I love the song but what's with the lyrics? I know brandon's usually poetic but some of the lyrics in this song are just like "What the hell are you talking about???"

  • :-) Awesome!

  • Missing the old Incubus...damn =(

  • yeah.. morning view was there best by far.... im not a big fan of Martini.. .doesnt seem like something incubus would put out....

  • Has anyone ever thought brandon boyd is like a modern day jim morrison and michael einziger looks like robbie krieger???

  • I don't know... but mike's old hair reminded me of Jimi Hendrix's afro XD

  • this kinda reminds of zee deveel

  • hey it kindof does but zee deveel sounds so much better

  • HUGE FAN of morning view... NOt a huge fan of this.... doesnt sound like incubus

  • HUGE FAN of Fungus Amongus, HUGE fan of this. Sounds like Incubus to me. =p

  • amazing

  • starting to think it is 'offer nothing at all' lol

  • i think its "if you want for nothing at all'.....as in if you have everything you could want why are you still crying

  • I don't think that makes sense. Plus, its very clear that he says "offer"

  • the solo sounds kind of rogues-like..

    I did have to get used to the sound of this song, but really like it now

  • it may also be "if you work for nothing at all".

  • Great Song! i like! its a bit misrecorded.....quality of guitar is a lil bit low i think....

    but sounds quite crunchy..its kewl!

    Don't be a Fly in my martini Babe! yeah!

  • or it may be why are you cryin 'over nothin at all'

  • also its 'you want for nothing' and 'you want for nothing at all'

  • who gives a shit what they limit or dont limit they are the shit and so is this song i love new fav incubus song [for the time being of course ; ) ]

  • guau, esto es muuy distinto de cualquier cosa que jamas haya hecho incubus

  • They gave her diamonds, shiny boys, city speak, every toy... yo lyrics a bit off

    love it

  • pfff, don't diss incubus

  • Thumbs are going down and down

  • Awesome solo ...really good song ..

  • This song is fascinating. Glad to see incubus come out with some really good new stuff. :)

  • great soNG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • this song is brilliant, i'm surprised that it wasn't released as a single or summat

  • What??? My favorite albums are Fungus Amongus and SCIENCE, and I think this song rocks!

    It's their Diamonds and Coal/Oil and Water-esque songs that I'm disappointed with.

  • Is it climbing or cloudy?

  • Also, this is the BEST Incubus song to come out in quite a long time. I can't wait for their 2010 -11 album!

  • "the roof is high and I'm not CLIMBING tonight, so come down...."

    It sounds like crowded, but climbing makes more sense, and Brandon is known to sing words ambiguously, so that part is up for debate.

  • It sounds like crowded and well it fits. LOL

  • the roof is high now and Im not Crowded tonight. If he had written the WALLS are high now and Im not climbing tonight . ok I get that .

  • "The roof is high and I'm not climbing tonight, come down.."

    That is what the lyrics are for the last two parts of the chorus starting at 3:33. Whether he says crowded or climbing before that point is questionable.

  • Lyrics are off.

    "That didn't do nothing," "if you offer nothing at all." "if you offer nothing at all."

    "Fast cars" not flash cars.

  • keep it coming since they don't include the lyrics on the Cd......

  • yeh .. that wont satiate..

    why are you crying, you want for nothing at all....Ill give you something to cry about.

  • He clearly says if - both interpretations are acceptable in context. I'll use a slow down program to discern whether he enunciates a wheh, or an oph.

    Also, I noticed that the third climbing sounds deliberately like crowding or crawling.

    I've been working hard to be able to play and sing this song, so the exact details are pretty important to me. Mike's part in the verses are fucking difficult - given I'd have to sing Brandon's part on top of it. I'm determined dammit.

  • Thanks a bunch for it! :D

    It's a pity they're not putting the lyrics on the CD :(

  • Ohh si, es una cancion muy buena , no se por q no la pusieron en el light granades..

    En fin!

    Gracias Patri!

    INCUBUS ROCKS lml

  • this is making me go nuts! i love incubus forever. they never fail to surprise. what a corny thing to say. WHATEVER!! INCUBUS!!!!!!!

  • This is such a different sound for them. I remember them saying that they had some songs for Light Grenades that they felt where not Incubus style and this is definitely one of them. Even Dig was more "hip-hop" before they altered it. It's a good listen though, and I love the chorus! Can't wait for 6.16.09!

  • agreed. different but in a great way tho. They needed to experiment a bit more. All the songs were starting to sound quite similar. Not sure if you meant it as a good thing, but I agree it's certainly different.

  • Yeah I meant it as a good thing. As long as this is not the style of most of their new stuff, I'm good. Stuff like this, they should limit to only a few songs imo.

  • this is so maroon 5/Prince - ish blehhh...the only good thing about it is mikey
