  • 12 people are talking shit

  • yes i no its tied the noose to tight

  • oh noose i tied you to loose my name is bruce and i like juice

  • do u have to pick on the sunset , its not like it can defend itself

  • @rockchoppa201 it will 12/21/12

  • This song is amazing, but even better when you listen to it in the context of the album rather than the song as a single. the distortion song before, Exit Does Not Exist sets up the smooth sweet sadness of Talking Shit About a Pretty Sunset. The song is darker at first, but then becomes quite moving.. and joyful actually. and after leaving your breathless at the end, its picked up immediately by the sweet and sad song Make everyone happy,/mechanical birds and ends us with space travel is boring.

  • ^_^

  • law of youtube comments: the more views the more stupid debates / standalone comments

  • wack

  • @Dbot101 I found it. But I'm sorry man, listen to me, you for all those people that arent helping then they do not have any insight on what your going through, and therefore you should ignore there advice or whatever. What you really need to do is look at the beauty in life and see the goodness, you need to step back and ignore all the dark moments in your life for a moment and only reflect on those moments that you cherish, thats whats usually helps me.

  • And now the search for bufujigga35's comment

  • one time i stuck a snapple cap up my butthole

  • @jackfn1234 AHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH­AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA 

  • Sucks how so many people don't understand good music anymore. In high school, listening to this song makes you weird as hell. To be normal, I need to listen to lil wayne apparently.

    No sir, I am staying weird as hell. :)

  • @juliansmithismyhero that's right! All others can just leave our weird part of youtube!

    /\/\/\/\/\/\ this guy is my hero =]

  • this song hits ya where it hurts

  • It's sad that I find alot of hate in these comments. And its ironic that the song talks exactly about what you guys are doing here. Talking shit about a pretty sunset... :(

  • Modest Mouse rocks... I dont care what you think or what you say.

    MODEST MOUSE ROCKS.

  • damn, this song is so chill, but also pretty inspiring. i remember the good old days, skateboardin through all my troubles

  • My Hoe's like it.... So, I will not hate it.... Peas

  • this picture is misleading.. johnny mar was not in this album.

  • Change my mind so much I can't even trust it, my mind changed me so much I can't even trust myself. This song has gotten me through so many hard times. I love it. I love every single one of you commenting with good thoughts and vibes. <3

  • 11 people are deaf and are mad because they want to hear how awesome this song is

  • fuck this is like my anthem

  • its stupid to fight about such a pretty song

  • an all-time favorite. probably the most relatable song i've ever heard. comforts and depresses me at the same time. brilliant.

  • No band stays the same for 10 years, so stop complaining about the "new modest mouse." its still way better than most music out there.

  • @DSakaiOnRye I'm pretty sure AC/DC has been doing the same song for the last 25+ years.

  • @NightmareGanon I personally hate acdc

  • @DSakaiOnRye I'd be very concerned if someone who enjoys Modest Mouse did not do so.

  • don't feed the trolls, yo

  • @kawaiifreak860 dude FUCK YOU this bamd is pure genius if you dont like it get the fuck out of here its a great song and band

  • @kawaiifreak860 LAWLLAWLLAWL

  • @EnmaAlicea FUCK UR LAWLAWLAWL I RAISE YOU A QUADRUPLE LAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLAW­LAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLAW­LAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLAWLALWAW­LAWLAWALAWLAWLAWLAWLALWALWALWL­AWL

  • @kawaiifreak860 DESUDESUDESU

  • @kawaiifreak860

    Im so sorry, this band is not meant to be listened by incompetent and the mentally challenged people.

    Im sorry you got in this video in the first place. Are you lost? Where is your mommy and daddy?

    Do.you.know.your.name.?

    GTFO,

    oh and *LAWL*

  • @kawaiifreak860 Does this band suck? Does it really?

  • @kawaiifreak860 go watch ur anime shit faggot, first their not emo they dont even look emo u dumb shit. and they sing about real shit maybe if u actually listned to the lyrics instead of just hearing it play ud get that. and last thing, i dont think modest mouse really gives a fuck what u say, for every piece of shit hater like u they have thousands of fans to make up for it.

  • @CodyGr1n

    I lol'd, more Justin beiber type Fangirls.

    Listen nobody cares what you think, they suck, and the number of Haters will always outnumber the Fans. And no signing on with your friends every day to thumbs up a video so it shows "1,000" views + does not make a Giant fanbase it makes a Tiny sad fanbase that has no life and no actual friends. (Moar like clones)

  • @kawaiifreak860 of course ud bring up justin beiber, fag. and actually fans ounumber haters, and if no one cares what i think, what makes u think anyone cares what you think, cuz ur the one hating, go back to 4chan with ur "moar" dumbass lingo

  • @CodyGr1n

    LOL

    Your new name is

    Dr. FAIL HARD

    umad bro?

  • @kawaiifreak860 not really =D 

  • @kawaiifreak860 look at the big dude trolling on youtube again..

    oh and by the way, atleast this band did something for this world, the only thing i see you doing is annoying people trying to please their ears.

    do us all a favor, shut up

  • @Hessekimojo

    LOLWHUT

    >2month old comment,

    >Replies with gibberish bullshit and tries to tell me to shut up.

    >My reaction: NOPE

  • @kawaiifreak860 >you're cool?

  • @kawaiifreak860 oh man, the internet is full of people who tell others to go suck their dads dick, you serously have to be one of them? dont be mad because you cant have a sweet band like modest mouse.

  • Just stfu and listen to the damn music. People annoy the shit out of me.

  • this song will always stay close to me, so many memories

  • assholes

  • stop leaving gay comments

  • What is it about this song, and many others by Modest Mouse, that compels us to obnoxious reflections on life?

  • Simply beautiful...

  • ive changed my mind so much i cant even trust it

    my minds changed me so much i cant even trust myself

  • If nothing else there is humor in ironey alone to keep me going :)

  • this is the real modest mouse. i wish they still made music like this :(

  • @dani109877 I don't think Isaac has ever compromised himself, musically. Basically: whatever he says the "real" Modest Mouse is, goes. That's like saying Picasso was only Picasso in his blue period. It' makes no sense.

  • @indiejunkie01 I really like that comment. That's a great comparison/analogy.

  • i love this and the karma payment plan.

  • this song and this band are amazing.i listen to them constatnly i can really relate to this song. im tired of my life. i dont know what to do anymore.

  • if your suicidal you dont mention it

  • @559doh

    have you been suicidal?

  • @559doh are you F*cking stupid? How are people supose to get help if they just keep it to themselves?! My brother attempted to comit suicide you prick! If he would have gotten help sooner my family wouldnt have been dragged through 4 years of the worst shit you can imagine and deal with the never ending worry that he might try to do it agian. People who are suicidal should speak out wherever to whomever to get help! Everyones life is worth while!

  • @drewskiskeet If someone wants to kill themselves then there is nothing anyone else can do about that.

  • @drewskiskeet wouldn't it be nice if it was that simple?

  • @drewskiskeet People who suicide get no sympathy in my book

  • @559doh

    Wtf is wrong with you?

  • Why is the prom queen at the homecoming dance?

  • @NiwdogNave Some schools don't allow for one person to win both. Hence why one girl may be be irritated at the dance.

  • @NiwdogNave you say that like yr a detective bro spotting a flaw in isaac brock's alibi

  • Ohh Noossee.

  • this song deserves a music video.

  • @dizzankss If you noticed the question marks at the end, maybe you'd realize I wasn't judging.. But funny how you yet accuse me of being a fifteen year old girl and insecure. Judging at it's finest hmm?? Your right though music isn't all about lyrics, obviously Mozart and Bach knew that!! But music is music it's nothing more and nothing less. -3

  • starting to be alone more finding out more about myself but who am i to be trusted

  • I wish there was a repeat button.

  • Am I wrong or does the 3:20 part is similar to an Explosions in the Sky song...

  • it has a similar ring to Your Hand in Mine. @RSMT197

  • everytime i hear this song it makes me wish i was still in wenatchee... :'(

  • Oh noose!

  • story of my life....

  • just amazing

  • your all scenesters just enjoy it dont talk about it

  • this is originality folks. modest mouse has been makin magic since 96. I always got a little funk in me thanks to these guys

  • ah. what happens at 3:29.

  • @woodrum13 its called an appregio.

  • @boofieman

    TIL - thanks.

  • does anybody no any of their darker songs?

  • @thehefolomp just look for yourself...their new stuff is generally detested by hardcore modest mouse fans, but I just consider it their "commercial" phase. it isn't terrible, but if you want "darker", then listen to the album this came from (long drive) and the one after it (lonesome crowded west). moon & ant. is kind of in between.

    amazing song, btw. This used to be one of my lesser favorite mm albums, but man I have listened the shit out of it lately.

  • @thehefolomp ya, modest mouse is a lot of stuff

  • @thehefolomp what song isnt, even when it sounds a little up beat its pretty dark. Bankrupt on selling and all the stars are projectors maybe even little motel all sound kinda not so upbeat like this tune here! oh listen togravity rides everything!

  • @thehefolomp if you want Mouse at their darkest, try Tundra/Desert. That song gives me nightmares. It's a hellish pseudo-dance song which is comparable in scope and scale to Radiohead's Idioteque, but is much, much angrier. For more subdued, depressing stuff (which I think modest mouse does best), try Bankrupt on Selling, Styrofoam Boots (It's All Nice on Ice), Lives, and the Good Times are Killing Me (I'm a 'hardcore fan' but I like all their stuff)

  • changed my mind so much i cant even trust it, my mind changed me so much i cant even trust myself....

    uh helloo thank you modest mouse for being able to put my thoughts into a song.

    even when i dont know what the hell isaac is talking about, i can still feel the emotion through their songs

  • who the fuck cares its modest mouse!!

  • oh modest mouse how you have fallen

  • @mattdelhey this is their old shit you dumbass

  • @murdockpt irony. reading comprehension fail

  • @mattdelhey grammar fail

  • @mattdelhey Do you not pay attention to lyrics, or are you just so easily amused by autotune?

  • @keshiafasho Lyrics don't equal music. you obviosly don't understand music and your probobly like 15 grow up and feel the music and listen to the lyrics but great music often doesn't have lyrics, for good reason. it lets you feel in the blank spots.

  • @keshiafasho Lyrics don't equal music. you obviosly don't understand music and your probobly like 15 grow up and feel the music and listen to the lyrics but great music often doesn't have lyrics, for good reason. it lets you feel in the blank spots. what is wrong with enjoying the little things. i feel like you just judge people because you are insucure. hope you can hate

  • This is the best song ever made...

  • I love how music can be a part of times in your life. This song makes me think about being 18 living in a studio downtown seattle, broke, skating everyday and loving life. It's like looking at old pictures or film of your past. I love that.

  • @hardhustler I know exactly what you're talking about bro.

  • when i finally get it figured out I've changed the whole damn plan...., story of my life, modest mouse is the greatest band ever

  • God, this song makes me cry. Love it.

  • This song never leaves my mind. It's there when I eat, sleep, playin games, blaze, and when I'm just out livin life.

  • I PROMISE I JUST LISTENED TO THIS SONG 8 TIMES IN A ROW & ITS PLAYING AS I TYPE,,,,, DEFINITELY 1 OF MY FAVORITE SONG OF ALL TIME

  • I PROMISE I JUST LISTENED TO THIS SONG 8 TIMES IN A ROW & ITS PLAYING AS I TYPE,,,,, DEFINITELY 1 OF MY FAVORITE SONG OF ALL TIME

  • Whoever hates Modest Mouse, hates themselves and their families.

  • this song kept me going on in a time when i really talked shit about pretty sunsets..

  • this and bankrupt on selling are my two favorite mm songs

  • my fave!!!!

  • every time i hear this song, i look over my shoulder to make sure issac brock isn't there writing another song about my life.

  • Still breaks my heart a little.

  • @Ceresariel I'll co-sign to that.

  • i <3 you modest mouse!!!! 

  • Who didn't like it? What's wrong with you?

  • Favorite MM song ever. =]

  • this song can make me happy any time

  • This song is simply awesome. I wish there was more people to come to the realization that personal shortcomings are their own fault not other aspects of their lives. "So I blame this town, this job, these friends, the truth is it's myself." Great freaking line!!!

  • This is a brilliant song.

    So sad, yet incredibly uplifting.

    My favorite MM song ever.

  • i love this song it really helped me get over all the guilt i had after i killed my stupid whore of a girlfriend who i caught fucking my best friend and realize that hey, life is what is man. roll with the punches

  • @bufujigga35

    damn that shit happen to you too? why are woman so evil....

  • @bufujigga35 I've been meaning to tell you, you should probably find somewhere to lay low for a while because your probably wanted for murder

  • @primusman117 LMFAO YES BRO WIN

  • @primusman117He killed him with a trident... Ive been meaning to talk to you about that. You might want to find a safehouse, a relative or friend close by, lay low for awhile, because your probably wanted for murder.

  • I blame this town, this job, these friends, the truth is, it's myself!

  • I've been suicidal for the past few weeks, and I know that I can shake it.

    I've always loved this song, but I've never really listened to it, I guess. But just last night, I listened to it and listened to the lyrics and everything. I feel whole. I can relate to it so much, and what I think is the message behind this song rings so true. Talking shit about a pretty sunset. You can choose to find the flaws in anything, or you can see the beauty in it. It's there, you just have to look.

  • @loueg93 i know how you feel

  • @loueg93 You and me both. 

  • @loueg93 You're not alone

  • @loueg93 I'm with you man. Fighting the same fight...

  • well that is the BEAUtY of music just got to change your perspective.

  • @loueg93 Made a grown man cry.

  • @loueg93

    for sure, i mainly listen to metal for a long time.. when life was good. then the girl i loved crushed me and i didn't even have the energy for metal music anymore. i started listeningto this shit.. i actually did kill myself though. but was stupid enough to tell her and she called the ambulence and they saved my life before i actually died (was an intentional OD) but.. yeah man.. i listened to this song a lot when i was fucked up in the head too... not like i'm not still....

  • @historynonexistent I'm a metalhead myself. and what brings me to this? depression over a girl. For some reason this makes me feel better. i know exactly how you feel though man. I cant even listen to kataklysm when i'm like this. (Although i did just see them live 2 weeks ago lol).

  • @loueg93

    listen to kataklysm. great band. all their stuff is great but their older stuff really has a lot of emotion in it.. they've always touched me pretty deep... victims of this fallen world, the prophecy: stigmata of the immaculate, epic: the poetry of war, serenity in fire, and 'shadows & dust' are all their CDs i would really check out, they have 5 more CDs (3 newer, 2 older) but i would check out the ones i named first.. really any of their songs are good, their all epic

  • @loueg93 Cool, way to make the song all about you.

  • @SclafaniBagni you piece of shit

  • @chrisdrakekaka haha u mad bro?

  • @SclafaniBagni nobody can be mad while listening to this :)

  • @loueg93 if you're swayed by this song, then you were probably just bored, not suicidal. attention seeking baby-faggot.

  • @valdezmiguel2 you are patetic

  • @chrisdrakekaka suck my dick. dunt. who are you to pass judgement? I know you fucking bite the pillow, faggot.

  • @loueg93 :)

  • i literally listen to modest mouse everyday all day. all their albums . everything. One of the greatest bands to ever walk this earth.... also smashing pumpkins .

  • @bobtron757 you have excellent taste in music sir, The Pumpkins And Modest Mouse are fucking amazing. Issac Brock and Billy Corgan are music geniuses
