why? - the hollows

[RaygunShaun]

Also, Yoni did an interview once where he explained that as a teenager, he tried out for the Olympics as a figure skater, and placed 332nd. Surely, this somehow ties in to the "3:32" line here.

[XXmynameisliamXX]

i love "why?" they're song are like a meaningful riddle you sit around for a long time trying to work out what the songs are about i love them soooooo much its unbelieveable

[OhDamnItsCourtney]

I know somehow all these Why songs make sense. haha

[KassandraDoll]

The vocals are played out in a way that i would feel stupid explaining.

[Junkomono]

i've always been in love with this song

[photoPH0BIC]

lmao this is NOT emo. this is awesome.

[MoOtErFiCk1]

music like this isn't appreciated mostly because of it's fan base.. most likely scenesters.. sadly..

[TheHevquip]

@MoOtErFiCk1 Well this is one guy I won't stop listening just because of scenesters and hipsters, I found him first!

[eyeweiss]

@MoOtErFiCk1 I don't know what 'scenesters' means, but I love the whole album.

[RaygunShaun]

@MoOtErFiCk1 I don't think you understand what 'scene' is. I wish those kids would start listening to Why?, our generation would be shit tons better.

[PhillyBluntsDoItRite]

In no way is this emo. This is fucking music.

[hystericalcheezit]

This. Is. Fucking. AWESOME.<3

[epicwatermellon]

[iloveinvaderzim1000]

[KeandraBennett94]

do you think he was trying to say something when he said 'cloack always suck on 11:11 (time world suppose 2 end) and 3:32 (have you seen the fourth kind) O_0

[iToonLink]

@KeandraBennett94 he said clocks always stop tellin 11:11 at 3:32 but no I don't think so

[SethTheZephyr]

[thespankbass]

[zombiecarrots]

who ever said this is emo doesnt know music or respect it. i hear no whining or mention of being heart brocken. they have a circle in hell reserved for people who dis why?.

[Hashashination]

@zombiecarrots if you hear no whining or mention of being heartbroken then your speakers are on mute.

[jugglebug911]

[JayRocks311]

[Aequitos118]

[19stuart73]

[restingbird04]

[nationalssokr925]

the world needs more music like this, mainstream is bullshit

[epicsrus]

So true man

[1the2one3and4only]

I know, I wish there were more underground genius in the music industry like this.

[coolbear20]

not indie don t label

[om3n456]

definitely indie dude trust me ive been to many many of their shows and talked with yoni and the band they r indie hip hop but they lean more toward indie and dont try to be cool and argue cause i live in the same place yoni was born and grew up thats why they come here and do small shows where ppl like me who actually like the band go and get to talk to them

[VamastaMoren]

Dude, I don't mean to be a Grammar Nazi... but you say "dumb yanks", when you don't know what a fucking run on sentence is? Don't try to act cool, don't even bother responding, you'll just sound like a even bigger douche then you already sound.

[coolbear20]

well i dont care stupid empty snob

[om3n456]

mate im on the fuckin internet im not gonna waste my time putting quotations and wat not in me sentences only fucks like you that arent even in the conversation who just butt in because i said something bad about america (dont get me wrong america is great but the ppl who are the mass society are fat wankers) spend 15 minutes critiquing wat they gonna say

[VamastaMoren]

No because you sound stupid.

Enough said =)

[kyphq07]

Dude, I don't mean to be a Grammar Nazi... but you put an "n" after the "a" if the following word begins with a vowel.

[VamastaMoren]

Only in Algebra(Period.) ;D

[rabbitwho]

@kyphq07 an university?

[hyperswivel]

superfluous question mark.

[om3n456]

congradulations to all of you who just joined the masses of idiots on youtube who think they know what they are talking about, why? nor death cab for cutie are emo bands go listen to afi and my chemical romance those are emo bands do those two bands sound anything like this band or death cab the answer for you dumb yanks is no they are indie

[DMTZombie]

yeah...how the shit is your music taste the thing that defines genres? you were emo and you liked a band so they're emo? that mean that watever you like now is pompous arrogant music?

[alrightey123]

@AloraElaine you have no concept of what emo music is. death cab is pop rock, this band is "hip-pop" or something like that... emo is alexisonfire, senses fail, saosin, the used etc.... most emo bands can be pointed out easily by their clothing and hair styles

[UrInterweb]

it's not about "sorting bands" dude. why are you throwing a fit because someone proved you wrong?

for the record, you're a giant fucking tool. good day, sir.

[Maemerz]

man this song is great. too bad for the people who havent heard of this band... tisk tisk

[mutedmakequiet]

do not compare why to death cab.

[alecme]

DeathCab and This Band is not emo...

[HallowCreed]

what the fuck is emo, i love this band and i quite like death cab. am i emo,

[MattF012]

Why are there references to 'Death Cab'?

[99Maic]

In Berlin I saw two men fuck

in the dark corner of a basketball court.

Just a slight jangle of pocket change pulsing.

[bblinky]

love the 'well fuck you' in this!

[69JenniferUK]

i love this song

and fuck you death cab for a cutie IS emo .

i understand this ;

you should too .

[ibetmycaddywill]

FAGGOT

[koruush]

death cab for a cutie. fail. your a bum man

[lemaster092]

[irhgir123]

death cab for cutie isn't emo

[ibetmycaddywill]

you smoke too much weed

[SkiMarySkiHigh]

If jill ever reads this i hope she knows the millions i make now are all for her.... i will always curse the months hid behind a past a i was scared to reveal KEYISISSS sunSooInn

[StillsKan]

Brilliant...

[bejAmir]

love it.

[MadmanMoon]

Wow people have a completely skewed idea of what emo is if they think this is it.

[specialska47]

Why is this emo? Can you even fucking describe what emo is? This is NOT emo. Try to be tolerant to what other people listen to. Just because it's different than the hollywood force-fed bullshit that's out there, people think its dumb. I'm sick of that shit. Listen to what you want, let others listen to what they want. No trash-talk. Just enjoyment of music

[iamnotanija]

you might be the smartest person on youtube.

[specialska47]

lol.

[alrightey123]

@specialska47 besides not even sounding emo at all they don't even look emo...

[Megato]

@specialska47

I concur. =) Rational people do exist after all.

[willxX1010Xxwade]

@specialska47 are you retarded? you say "No trash-talk." but three lines above it you talk shit about the pop music nowadays. get a fucking life!

[FSCPanda]

i wouldnt really say there pop music its more like indie rock

[mastacre]

@willxX1010Xxwade

are you retarded? you ended a quote with a period, then added a grammatical conjunction AFTER THE PERIOD!!! CONJUNCTION JUNCTION WHATS YOUR MUTHAFUCKIN FUCTION BITCH!!! EAT A GIANT SIZED, DARK, HAIRY, VEINY boot to the head.

[mastacre]

@mastacre

*FUNCTION

[oogaboogan]

@willxX1010Xxwade Well it's generally accepted the poppy shit sucks. At least by people who know real music.

[MightyMorphinMark]

@willxX1010Xxwade

to be fair, most of that crap doesnt qualify as real music.

[MightyMorphinMark]

@specialska47

definitely the best comment I've ever read. I completely agree dude.

[Hashashination]

@specialska47 WHY? is one of my favorite bands of all time. This is one of my favorite songs of all time. It is, however, as emo as making shallow sideways cuts all over the underside of ones forearms and wearing bright colored wristbands to "hide" them

[TonyMoans]

@specialska47 I don't give a shit if people criticize music, what annoys me is when idiots don't know shit about shit and use blanket words like 'emo' to describe anything that's too weird or personal for their bored, weak stomachs to digest

[quintonflyn9000]

@specialska47 Youtube, is the internetman's warzone. You are a steward of the peace, and you'll either be killed or give up... there will always be war.

[R1O7ZZZZ]

@quintonflyn9000 haha thats so true. these peaceful people need to gtfo! youtube is the battle of ideas. it always will be.

[bleunt]

@specialska47

"the hollywood force-fed bullshit that's out there"

"No trash-talk. Just enjoyment of music"

Contradiction much.

[TheStrossus]

This is hardly emo, you douche bag.

[Thoggs]

stupid!

[tititi34070]

just awesome !

[XDrSchnugglesx]

[xdarkdreamer]

[capricornchick]

[davidpwnsnoobs]

[WaitsWeights]

[specialska47]

[dappleddaydream]

@WaitsWeights Yes. Yes, it is.

[svincent86]

i guess it works for you

[hoodrat4999]

isn't a haddock a fish?

[svincent86]

[hoodrat4999]

[svincent86]
