  • The kid is good.

  • When I hear this song, I always remember the movie "the cabinet of dr. caligari"... I don't know if I'm right... or it's a crazy idea...

  • ...great song...really good song....

    I like it....

  • This song should be a bigger hit than this!

  • I thought the fish meant he was listening to stinky music. lol I'm still taking it as that because it would fit especially today. Not enough good music like this out there anymore.

  • @Big8535 I agree with you! It is like a metaphor.

  • the "special thaks to JEAN-MARIE PERIER" at the end, i wonder if that was the name they gave the fish...

  • @ellesar04 : loool, no is the name of a french photograph, When Jakob listen the fish is a reference to an old photo of Perrier ;-)

  • @Edydeblonzac actually there are some other references to his photos. for example the one that jakob lies at the empty seats is also related to one of his photos.

  • Kinda sounds like he's saying Samcro. xD

  • i will never in my life get used to how amazing looking Jakob Dylan is. He has such an interesting appeal. Those eyes...

  • phew fish lol

  • just......so......awesome!! (*_*)

  • one headlight is the best song of the wallflowers

  • @21esgar This and One Headlight are my favorites. xD

  • Gosh Jakob!those darn sexy eyes makes me want some more! moooore moore!

  • I always thought this should've been a bigger hit.

  • @antoniorossiz So true~this song is brilliant!

  • That fish knows way more lyrics, instead of repeating 'Give me that Filet of Fish-give me that fish.' Kudos to the fish.

  • why did they split? they were awsome, jakob´s solo career is good but the wallflowers were the shit

  • Comment removed

  • @bangermccrusher

    They did not split up, they just a long break. they are stepping into the studio in January to record the next record.

  • those eyes...

  • Sometimes I watch this video just to be reminded of the unfairness of how strikingly beautiful he is. Blows my mind.

  • "Cupid don't draw back your bow, Sam Cooke didn't know what I know. Never be your valentine. The sleepwalker in me. And God only know that i've tried."

    I love these lyrics!!

  • Great video! I didn't think any video could match up with such a great song, but it added meaning.

  • Many people disliked The Wallflowers' "Breach" album. With "Sleepwalker," "Letters From The Wasteland" and "Some Flowers Bloom Dead," this album kicks butt! This album is almost comparable to "Bringing Down The Horse"!

  • @spacefreak09 No, its not 'comparable' its equal to, if not way better than BDTH. Every track on (breach) is stellar and unskippable. Its one of the best albums of the decade, the masterwork of a true musical genius.

  • @jcaites I wouldn't go as far as saying it is 'better' than BDTH, because this album didn't do as well as BDTH. I do listen to this album as much as BDTH, however. I do agree that both albums are very good. I just feel that "Breach" didn't have all the energy that BDTH had. Of course, the songs mentioned below are the exception, since they are just as good as "One Headlight" and others.

  • SURE ITS FALL THROUGH IRIS THE SONGS CALLED "CARRION" IT JUST HIT ITUNES

  • He is Dylans son , I expect the music to have a message. and sound great!

  • amo wallflowers

  • A good rock tune with a message...what are the odds...It seems today anybody under 25 doesn't qualify as a musician anymore....how does that Willow Smith song go..."I whip my hair back and forth" ...now that is what I call a song...LOL...Why the hell do I even know that?!

  • i want an iFish :D

    

  • I remember rushing out to buy this cd, when this video premiered in late 2000. Apparently other people weren`t as smittten as I was. The cd sold horribly. Yet Britney and Rob Thomas were and are still pushing records to this very day. Americans are stupid and they lack taste.

  • @stuvo1977 Rob Thomas writes great songs..on par with the Wallflowers.

  • Muito Bom !!!!!

  • during the bridge, i heard his dad come through. LOL.

  • pisco is peruvian..joder

  • Hard to figure out how the song and the video go together. Maybe I should watch again. Better yet, I'll just ask Jakob what the connection is, if any. Overall it's a great song, but the video just confuses things. There's a lot focus and closeups on Jakob, so it feels narcissistic to me.

  • :)

  • I want that telecaster

  • uno de los mejores grupos de rock reminiscencias de los finales de los 90 y del inicio de los 2000, rock honesto y de contenido

  • BUENA AHI JACKOB DYLAN Y SU BANDA THE WALLFLAWERS

  • Sorry Anthony Wiener - Jakob Dylan is the Jewish guy I really want to see lewd pictures of.

  • 0:37

  • Bob Dylan's son is really good looking, but I've always thought that. Must get his looks frm his mom LOL

  • @83redrose83 OMFG seriously? Someone else who listens to Bob Dylan?? ;D I love Hurricane by him ^-^!!

  • @AzureLightz alot of people don't know older singers, but they're really missing out on alot of good artists.

  • @83redrose83 what are you talkin!!!!!! Girl, Jakob Dylan resembles a lot his father. And both are good lookin! (hehehe a total fan of Bob and Jakob)

  • @ImaTimeLord Bob is as ugly as my dog's butt! You need a pair of glasses!

  • @Johnnyrod19666 Ah, I think Bob Dylan was one of the most beautiful men ever lived when he was young. And his son ain't very different.

  • steven tyler sticking his tongue at me is a bit unsettling

  • @yellowjack hahahaha! WORD!

  • great tune.But the overall album was a downer.

  • @2:39 ♥

  • It seems that record companies are sometimes too eager to hire someone who is the son of a famous muscian or songwriter. I am glad in this case they made the right choice. Jakob Dylan is an excellent song writer and this song may be the defining example of his ability to write great deep emotional lyrics and portray them in song as they should be portrayed.

  • Wow, I actually came here looking for Megadeth's sleepwalker.

  • This video always cracks me up.

  • I think this is one of their best songs. Definitely the best lyrics though.

  • Oh no!!! get that AC30 out of the way!!

  • @PietPassword The video is in irony....i.e. Jakob is mocking all that crap.

  • excelente video y tema!

  • ART

  • ea se parece a su papa lo ke me gusto de este jakob fue ke no se kiso colgar de la fama de su padre es 1 tipo kon talentoo obvio ke no se compara con el pero es sencillo jakob ^o^

  • Oh shit I knocked it over...run away!!! lol

  • THE WALLFLOWERS. RULES!

  • ahhh the 90s

  • this fish sounds great

  • 2:26 looks so much like Bob Dylan, it's almost shameful. Too bad Bob's shadow ended up following Jakob so much... and the band ended up doing their greatest hit songs so early... if only record companies hadn't been so greedy for the big hit songs so early into somebody's career, imagine what would've happened.

  • Is this band still around? 

  • @Jitpring Yes...:) I love bands that most people haven't heard of...I am 11 and if talk to someone about a Bob Dylan song or Jakob Dylan song...they are like Who's that? oh hahaha most people are spelling Jakob wrong :P funny

  • Comment removed

  • @pinknoses101 Very good, pinknoses. There's worse music you could be listening to. For example, you could be listening to trash like rap or idiocy like Bieber and his ilk. May you one day ascend to the heights of music, leaving not only rap and Bieber idiocy behind, but also both Bob and Jakob (though they're so very much better). When you ascend to the heights, you'll then listen only to Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Verdi, Wagner, and those of their exalted fellowship. I bid you cheers!

  • @Jitpring Ew! I hate bieber! And jakob and bob can not even be COMPARED to music nowadays! they are 100000000000000and 1 % better! And they always will be! and thanks for the cheers..i bow :D

  • @Jitpring Watch it about rap now..... You got good rappers out there.... RESEARCH!! Stop being biased! Love all kinds of music...... Rap is not all about hos money, killing somebody and rims.....

  • @Jitpring jakob did a solo album not too long ago

  • @sk8orhateit I like parkway drive as well, but it honestly depends on what type you like better.

  • Thought this was a parkway drive song and this guy looks like Justin Kirk LOL.

  • jacob didnt get into smoking and drugs all hardcore like his father did which resulted in bob's going to complete shit as he got older, but from the late 50's to the mid 70's i liked Bob's voice alot, jacob impresses me very much and i think the wallflowers are very underrated.

  • Vevo, Let me start by sayin get your corporate asses off youtube! Ever since these big companies started paying off youtube so they could post their friggin videos we can't post ours. We are flagged for infringement evry time we include a song we like in our videos.

    This is YOUtube, the place where we can post OUR videos. If we wanted to listen to music from you wed go to your damn website.

    People who want greedy corporates gone thumbs up and copy and paste @ vevo shit

  • parkway drives' sleepwalker is better

    by a long shot

  • @sk8orhateit If you like people screaming and squealing into the microphone like wild animals. Can't even understand a word they're saying. That's not even music to me. Just noise.

  • One of the best songs EVER!

  • I love him so much. He's so gorgeous.

  • i hate the commercials at the beginning

  • I saw them open for the Counting Crows at Merriweather Post Pavilion back in the 90's. Amazing show. I really miss these type of bands, Wallflowers, Crows, Gin Blossoms, etc. God I feel old.

  • @ciderale I love Gin Blossoms~~ ya, i listen to them when I was around 17yrs old...time flies and I feel old as well

  • @ciderale

    I love Gin Blossoms.... also songs like Runaway Train.... Gosh, I can feel Im getting old as well

  • @fabianteo80 no worries, highschooler here continuing the wallflowers, counting crows, oasis, good ol' 90's stuff generation

  • best band of all time

  • Jesus would have forgiven me for being an "of the flesh" bad speller:)

  • what is the meaning of this song? i feel as though the video tells a slightly different story than the lyrics of the song..

  • Comment removed

  • what did b.dylan "go through?" the 60's?? as a jewish man? wow, that must have been a fucking bitch!:) I'll have to give to the "poor bob dylan" fund this christmas. and for those fucking christians out there, i'm an atheist, but even "I" know that jesus is a jew. no problem with me, but................seems to be a tiny little problem for most christians. hmmmmmmmmmmmm. hypocrisy/ ignorance???

  • @glenneveaux Like any good Atheist, educate yourself. Yes, Jeshua was a Jew. However, spelling errors aside, your last argument is unfounded. (note: Romans 11:16 - 11:24)

    Anyway, my apologies to any fans who might be reading this. It has very little if anything to do with The Wallflowers, who are a topnotch band. Although, their lyrics do often have Biblical undertones.

  • que bueno que está el cantante por favor

  • if he was abit skinnier and grew a jew fro he would looks exactly like his father

  • @letmeloginyoucunt who is or was his father?

  • @coralnumerocinco

    His father is widely considered the greatest lyricist of all time - Bob Dylan.

  • @letmeloginyoucunt wtf?? really, i didn't know!

  • @coralnumerocinco

    He is incredibly famous...

  • @letmeloginyoucunt yes, i know him but i have no idea that the singer of this band is his son...

  • @coralnumerocinco

    oh ok lol

  • @letmeloginyoucunt oh my.....bob dylan is his father?

  • @tziemike sarcasm?

  • :) What an angel

  • Comment removed

  • You guys are missing the point of the video hes trying to show how dumb it is that people pay more attention celebrity lives than real problems in the world.

  • @mattshannon123456789 Thank You!! I'm glad somebody got it!!

  • jacob can never live up to dylan. I like his music, but it obviously never will.

    I hate this song and it's video. I do like some of his other stuff.

  • Strange. Why don't they have their other videos like 'When You're On Top' and their earlier stuff?

  • Worry about leaders who send thousands to die for nothing before you worry about a piece of cloth touching the ground.

  • this video nice

  • Don't let the National Flag touch the ground!

  • i don't like vevo but i lke this song

  • Vevo please take Justin Beiber off this page right now!

  • 2:16 - 2:20 - jacob sounds exactly like bob. =)

  • what's wrong w/ Vevo allowing us to listen to music that Record Companies were removing from youtube? What's wrong with allowing songwriters to get paid for their work? Getting paid = they don't have to do other jobs and can focus on their music.... and we can have more of it.

  • @steph32984 Right on! These people who think musicians should just do what they do for free don't understand how the world works. 

  • this is agreat video... I don't know how either I've never seen it or don't remember it.

  • ¡¡ The Wallflowers - Sleepwalker. RULES ~

  • i love his eyes. i usually fall for men with brown eyes, and I find it difficult for some guys to pull of blue eyes...but for some reason, i really like his.

  • do you want to marry me?? jeje

  • Wow He's so good looking. :) But I like his Solo Albums better!

  • te amoooooo JACOB!! DAME BOLA

  • god vevo sucks ass interupt the video for some shit ass commercial

  • @420homegrown420 Hit F5 to skip commericals. =]

  • Jacob is such a stunningly gorgeous man! ♥ I could stare at him all day!

  • love his eyes, love his lips. love his voice... love his DNA

  • i've been looking for this vid love it 

  • VEVO SUCKS!

  • ¡¡ The Wallflowers !! ..RULES !!

  • where are the wallflores now?

  • @201172anastacio I am sad to say that the band had broken up. I know right I was really upset. But all good things come to an end and Jakob ( which is the correct spelling of his name) has a solo career. To him he said it wasnt about making a living music was something he just wanted to do. So you havent heard him main streaming for awhile. But check out his website. To get all the updates.

  • for real vevo makes me almost hate youtube

  • Does anyone else think it's brilliant how Jakob's silhouette looks like Bob's? And that at 2:33 the silhouette stands infront of his own face as it burns up? In other words (and since the song is about the folly of fame), it can feel like his father's fame eclipses his own? Just a thought.

  • 1:23 your next best friend? :(

  • Jacob is in a world of his own..his father's influence is there noticeably but still he creates the music he sings....

  • love all the lyrics

  • i love the acoustic version of this way more, very haunting

  • El hijo de Bob Dylan

  • We saw The Wallflowers a little after they released Bringing Down The Horse, and before the band came out, Jacob came out dressed in a black leather jacket and black hat and for almost a minute, the whole auditorium was silent... everyone thought it was Bob (guess he used to do that sometimes... just show up at random places without announcing it).

    He does look like a younger Bob Dylan, though... especially in the 'movie' footage playing behind him in a few scenes towards the end.

  • except!! Respect your guitar!

  • This was my favorite band when I was younger. When I got older, I fell in love with Bob Dylan's music and he became my favorite singer. A couple months ago I found out they're related. It's weird.... I never would've guessed. Everything about their music seems different to me. I just happen to like a wide variety of music. The only thing that matters is that they both rock.

  • bob and jakob are both wonderful musicians.. still people talks about jakob as a person imitating his own father.. jakob creates wonderful music because it is in his blood, the same blood as  bob dylan got.. thats why he's so talented...

  • @padmae Yeah, I noticed in a few interviews, he seems annoyed when people ask him about his father's influence of if he plays Bob's stuff live. It's like he's struggling to do his own thing. I am aware he has had a hard time getting his music accepted.

  • un temazo y re buen video tambien

    :)
