  • Listen to the version they played at sasquatch music festival. It is insanely good. This one lacks the zany punch of the live version.

  • amazing video man

    nice job:]

  • this could pass for an official video knowing modest mouse hahaha

  • it is one of the best fan videos i have seeen

  • Man modest mouse is fantastic

  • @burningburney99 yook the words out of my mouth

  • this song kinda of reminds me of a tim burton movie

  • 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

  • This song really embodies what the Devil would be to me... Arrogant, impulsive, and of a complete sociopathic mindset. But with style!

  • ALL HAIL THE HIGH LORD LUCIFER. MY LORD AND MASTER, RULER OF ALL

  • @redcatbird75 i doubt he cares you exist pal

  • @kohagan733 your point being?

  • @redcatbird75 Lucifer wouldnt piss on you if you were on fire?

  • go f your self . where you so easy angered by my post? You sad little man sorry boy

  • @redcatbird75 love you too :)

  • @redcatbird75 If you want to act evil just be a fundamentalist christian, now that is really fucking evil. lol jk...maybe not

  • I am not evil. and yes those fundamentalist christian more then likely make Jesus cry. LOL

  • i like this :) good job mate.

  • looks like Monty python

  • xDD! Such a perfect song. Great animation; I found the ending to be quite lulzy. ;)

  • perfect!

  • Looks very Modest Mouse-ish. I think it fits wonderfully.

  • I find the animation to be amusing.

  • I thank you for even having a video for this song. Might not be the best, but the message is sent.

  • i made my friend learn this on the trumpet just so he could play it while everyone else was practicing.

  • @jbird139 that's what i thought too

  • Sounds like a song that Tom Waits would write. Love it!

  • @quicksilverstew that's what i was going to say

  • Lol, awesome animation skills bro! :D

  • I COULD SELL MAH SELF A REASON AH! HAHA HAHAHAHA HA!!!

  • What the hell?!?!?!?!?!?!?

  • "i'm gonna take this sack of puppys!" <3

  • 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 think that this animation is bad. Actually it has it's charm. And I like it.

  • Im a die hard MM fan..... but i just do not like this song at all.

  • @shizzzbiscuit It was the first song I ever heard from them and it made me love them. Though it is a very different style

  • @seejacksurf, dude. i ablsolutley love you. :D if everyone reacted to internet trolls this way the Youtube wouldnt be 10x better.

  • needs more cowbell.

  • @Ubertroll94 FUCK YES ITS DOES! "Modest Mouse Ft. Will Ferrel!"

  • i love it <3

  • Project2.swf

  • I think it's kinda cute.

  • This is one hell of a nostalgiac song for me. :\

  • I think the animations pretty good. I love the art.

    The only complaint is his mouth when he sings.

    Quite frankly, the good things outweigh the bad things. I liked it.

  • i like the animation, i think its quirky and interesting (: , dun listen to wankers like them. >:c

  • this is really, really awesome. i love it!

  • i guess they wont allow this song in japan now kinda like the Clint Eastwood flick.

  • Why does this remind me of Louisiana? XDDD

  • This animation kind of reminds me of Angela Anaconda, and in some completely unintentional way, the song does too (if only you were to mute the show)

  • Very simple, lots of fun. Cool thang. :)

  • I'm glad I'm not the only person to hear this and get a Nawlin's vibe. This whole album makes me think of the big easy.

  • On contrary to what the others were saying, I actually quite like the animations. Good job, and thanks for the upload! :)

  • Modest Mouse+the Dirty Dozen Brass Band=AMAZING!

  • I actually like the animation.. :3 it totally reminds me of Modest Mouse or at least something they would do for their video~

  • 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.

  • coffen with a trumpet sticking out...............thats fucking excellent

  • Modest Mouse is such an amazing band. They are truly the indie style that completes my heart.

  • This is fairly interesting.

  • Animation is better than this shitty, no talent song. Brock just used this to fill the album with songs.

  • @Rjmorg this album sucked cock in general.

  • @Seanistoocool4you Float On is my 2nd favorite song Modest Mouse has ever done, after Dashboard. It may even be my favorite.

  • @stammencode it's really cute how you took the most mainstream songs of their's there are.

  • @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 enjoyed the art, it fits the vibe of the song very well.. thanks!

    I've always imagined loggers whenever I listened to this song lol.

  • 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 :)

  • lol did u make this video? its funny for a good band

  • haha when i got this cd i was ilke 10.. i would always skip this song. i thought it was scary haha

  • ... Well, I for one found this wildly entertaining!

  • i love it! whats ur shop on etsy? i love that site(:

  • I really like the idea behind this video, good work

  • Comment removed

  •  too literal...

  • Oh hey, Tom Waits

  • @LouReedsBooks Does sound like tom. Mouse is their own thing though. Like anyone else they have their influences. IMO bets band since the pixies.

  • To Be Honest This Video Takes Away From The Song...I Love The Song But What You've Done Here Is Just..Just No..

  • This shows potential.

    Just move the bloody guy's arms occasionally, fer chrissake

  • This shows potential.

    Just move the bloody guy's arms occasonally, fer chrissake

  • @seejacksurf This animation isnt good at all

  • Banjos are so fucking hardcore....

  • @VulgarityDivine It's just such a shame that they're not more popular D:

  • gotta say this video makes me laugh... good job dude

  • 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

  • I wana come to the tea party:(

  • Just felt like listening to the song, didn't think there'd a vid to go with it, good job.

  • @Mike2253 You Are Simply Badass

  • At 2:01 I love how it's just, "AHAHAHAHAHA!!!" And then the laughing stops abrubtly. xD

  • 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...

  • haha :)

  • this animation just totally fits the style of modest mouse lol

  • i lmao'd

  • i think this is very clever. nice work. thanks for taking the time to do this.

  • I bet you are just a charming lovely person to be around.

    Thank you for the kind words.

  • @runn1ng , you me and @somethinghatesyou should have a tea party some time. Because you're both so pleasant to be around.

  • @runn1ng , you me and @somethinghatesyou should have a tea party some time. Because you're both so pleasant to be around.

  • @seejacksurf lol sorry bro but to be honest the animation is shit

  • @seejacksurf ; personally id say its not too bad. good song simple idea easy to work with. booya

  • @seejacksurf

    Actually its; You, @somethinghatesyou, and I should have a tea party sometime, because you are both such pleasant company. ENGLISH.

  • @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

  • @seejacksurf lol. I like the art

  • @somethinghatesyou i kinda wanna hug you....

  • @somethinghatesyou dude even ur name gives away that ur trolling. crawl back under ur bridge go to sleep and dont wake up.

  • @somethinghatesyou

    ahhahahahahha

  • @somethinghatesyou You're so cool, you can insult people over the internet! That's so fucking original.

    I liked the video, it kinda went with the song, you know? Modest Mouse will forever be my favorite band

  • @somethinghatesyou you make a video?

  • @somethinghatesyou theres no such thing as shitty art everyone has a different taste you can not like the art but theres do so piss off

  • HOLY CRAP WTF?

  • reminds me of a Louisiana Swamp

  • He sounds like GG allin lol

  • this makes me want to hop around for some reason lol i love this song!

  • i agree. lol

  • hahaha for sure man!

  • 2:00 to 2:01... LMAO!!

  • THis would be an awesome soundtrack to show all the people who died in katrina... too soon?

  • stop watching Family Guy.

  • 100% me try again kiddo, or don't either way don't be mad that I thought of it first.

  • not soon enough lol

    F katrina

  • lol no

    I don't support any president let alone our own government.

  • Joke, dude...unless your comment about Katrina was serious, then I wouldn't really have a joke for you.

  • The last seconds sounds like a choked elephant...

    But the rest of the song is awesom :D

  • this is my fave song out of this whole album

  • creppy...and AWESOME

  • It sounds like Nick Cave singing a Tom Waits song

  • @MaxwellMurderx7

    You and Mike are both incredibly right.

    That would be a great video for a cover too. Nick and Tom trading verses and an angry clown washing an elephant.

    Gentleman, we owe the world to make it happen.

  • lol at the nihilism in this song.

  • LOVE!

  • 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

  • Yarly. Coworker recommended me this 'cause he knows I like waits and it fits so much. Might have to check out more from them.

  • dark

  • so good, nice work..thanks for posting!!

  • that was an awesome vid, just how i picture it in my hear

  • Reminds me of Monty Python. But i should'nt have to tell you that.

  • i picture a pisssed off modest mouse

  • lol

  • I don't know about you guys but when I hear this song, I picture an angry clown washing an Elephant.

  • angry elephant washing a crying clown in my head

  • Zomg you're psychic.

  • @Mike2253 DUDE. YES. I don't know why, but YES.

  • @Mike2253 I picture the robot devil from futurama singing it.

  • @Kiutu ME TOO! :D Great minds think alike.

  • @Mike2253 ahahahah wat the fuck?

  • @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 picture an angry clown washing an elephant, too.

  • @Mike2253 OMG ME TOO!

  • @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.
