i watched your video for this song a few years ago, and now anytime i hear or even think of this song i can still see it in my mind. i think its perfect
I don't know why, but for that last 4 years I've been coming to this video to get my fix of this song when I'm not on my own computer. This will always be the official video for me.
I don't get Modest mouse. There are songs that i realy love but then they do stupid stuff like this with the trumpets and other instruments. i honestly get annoyed with it. i'm not saying they suck or anything it just gets frustrating haha.
@leeagreasealophabred it's really cute how you think that they aren't their most popular songs for a reason. They don't go into a raffle, believe it or not. I don't listen to things to be a nonconformist, or vice versa. I listen to music I like, so whether the tracks are incidentally popular, I don't really give a rat's ass.
@leeagreasealophabred Chill dude. I wasn't trying to start anything and yes, I do understand that there is no raffling involved, believe it or not. It just bothers me when people only follow the mainstream stuff and call themselves fans. I'm not saying that's you, just explaining my reasoning.
I actually found the video interesting, and that it captured the spirit of the song. I LOVE this album and this is probably my favourite song on the album. Keep making stuff :)
i heard this song at my friends party, we all were extremely drunk and as soon as this came on we all started parading around the room saying that we were in the circus. def' made the night
the point of this song is to tell the exact idea of freedom he can do what ever he wants quoted at the end "i am my own damn god" and they are saying it doesn't matter any way were just all logs...
@seejacksurf I bet they smell like poop, pick their nose in public, and spend 11 seconds speed brushing their teeth every morning, forgetting to brush their tongue, then eat breakfast and go to school with bacon and egg breath....fucking assholes
I found Tom Waits through Modest Mouse, love Tom now soo much, and you can see a good bit of Tom in Isaacs writing, and the bands music. I think perpetual motion machine is a big one. IMO
@Mike2253 That is p[ossibly the funniest comparison ive ever heard. Also....it fits!! Hahahahaha Fuck dude thats massive............Im still laughing!!!
@Mike2253 You sir (I'm guessing you're a sir with a name like Mike2253) should win the Nobel Peace Prize for that comment. Why? Because when everyone hears this, everyone will forget why they're so mad and sad and just laugh together and propose a toast in your honor. Hears to ya!
@Mike2253 I definitely get that impression, but the animation works pretty well. Sure, it's not the best animation I've ever seen, but it's definitely better than I can do.
lol when i first started listening to modest mouse the only song i liked was dashboard and i absolutely despised all the other songs but now i just cant have enough of them
Listen to the version they played at sasquatch music festival. It is insanely good. This one lacks the zany punch of the live version.
