Garfield Is Dead (They Might Be Giants Version)

[deimosiscariot]

This worked entirely too well. Bravo!

[dreadvenom1]

I just realized how boring that comic would be if it was named "John"

[cutiepie23722]

1:18 IS CLASIC BUT I DONT GET DA VID

[DomSezXL]

I 'dead'-icate this to Lauren Porter of The Mill Health Centre, Letherbridge, as shown on BBC's Doctors.

[dacypher22]

I have a very eclectic taste in music, and listen to all kinds of genres. However, no other group compels me to look up the lyrics, comb them line-by-line to determine the meaning, and then go discuss them online the way that TMBG does. I think they are the most under-rated song-writers alive today.

[thirtysilver]

@dacypher22 Truer words have never been spoken, friend. Well-said.

[DashCat9]

Poor Jon. Yay John and John!

[tmbbiff]

excellent.

[RobTFirefly]

TMBG just tweeted this.

[thebleedingjeans]

I like Jon and John and John.

[MissRandomIsRandom]

Wow. Take out Garfield from "Garfield" and you just get a comic strip about Jon the depressed guy...

[RedShirt238092]

Me: Now Garfield, don't sign that contract for a TV show.

*Garfield signs contract*

Me:YOU'RE DEAD TO ME.

*Music starts*

[8Voc]

0:36

Garfield: Christmas shopping at the mall.

TMBG one of my favorite alternative rock bands. <3

[StrayCubone]

Jon arbuckle is the most depressing character I've ever seen.

[SleepyTymeT]

Please let the people producing free video editing suites deliver them with an empty folder for default titles and transitions.

[WelcomeToPwnage101]

Garfield could never die, or else the creators would go homeless.

[xManofPopsicle]

@WelcomeToPwnage101

Creator, Jim Davis.

I'm sure he's wealthy enough to retire and make it on book sales alone.

[Conway79]

I want this song played at my funeral.

[ctchampagne]

Bravo!

[heartsboxcars]

Oh wait I thought they had written a song about Garfield being dead. Kind of disappointed.

[raydeen2k]

Jesus Christ, that was beautiful!

[yogourtbrain]

Awwwwww, I love Garfield!! He can't be dead, I watch him every day on TV in a 3D french series....!!

[chanchan773]

This video made me look up Garfield's possible death and found out that it may be true that he is dead. Although just fan speculation, it did make me wonder if it was true.

I like this song a lot by the way!

[ezekieloak]

I want this song to be played at my funeral.

[shanghaiwater]

Very, very nicely done.

[trophyloaf]

wow, this is depressing. 

[KP5000]

why is jon not an alcoholic or suicidal? i feel bad for the guy, but he's a big loser. :/

[muffybear64]

I know how John feels at the end...*Cries* Nice v-video, though! :')

[aGasmaskProcession]

For some reason the ending part of this song makes me sad..lol

[onviant]

Brilliant!

[sitcomtrials]

[lindseyrosso100]

Barfield Toonie never made me smile until now.  God bless They Might Be Giant Genius'

[BeccaThePorcupine]

whoa, that's a little depressing :( but never the less interesting. nice video

[YourSwordIsEnough]

I AM SOOOO HIP

[izizful]

SO LOVE GARFIELD

[nadude4]

PROJECT FOR AWESOME!

[rsplayer0128]

i think that the sadest thing about this video is that Garfield is actualy dead, they made a "cartoon" of him. if youve seen it you would agree with me.... R.I.P Garfield

[PsychonautCameron]

What

[rsplayer0128]

i mean theres a crappy show starring garfield. hes dead to me lol.

[mgalusic]

But in the end he wasn't actually dead. It was just a dream. It was a metaphor for how death is always on our minds.

[rsplayer0128]

exactly :'(

[Pogoman987]

I love this song!!! I practically grew up with it :D

[yiommi]

So sad lovely tune though

[antiphonebill]

schizophrenic

[sharpace20]

random song

funny

[TheSpurswin5]

pearl jam stole these lyrics

[Aydee2020]

what song?

[tayloreh]

Dead

[Foxlover666]

I have a theory that Jon is really Jesus in Hell in the three day period where he is dead after he is crucified, where he takes on all the hate and alienation of the world on himself so the world doesn't have to suffer. Each day in hell is 30 years to him

[standardbearer]

Interesting theory!

Tell it to Jim Davis

[sciencemile]

Then Garfield would be Satan? O.o

[Foxlover666]

and Odie is Cthulhu.

[crashsmash01]

What About Liz!!!! (Jons Girlfriend)

[A2Z83]

so many things i love about this.

[10truefreak01]

just like garfield minus garfield

best webcomic ever.

[DannyHuntMusic]

this is great! i wish they had more songs like this.

[jonfinswife]

love this song, always have make me happy

[XcaptainXobliviousX]

hands down, my favorite TMGB song. right next to anna ng =P

[mimzypoopkin]

@XcaptainXobliviousX It's "TMBG" and "Ana Ng." #fanfail

[LeftSock06]

Jon's life adds a lot to this classic TMBG song. Now I see it in a new way after 17+ years.

[justacomedian]

garfield comics are funny but depressing. its a love hate thing

[IRuleDisWorld]

jks I love Garfield but poor Jon poor guy! :(

[IRuleDisWorld]

if i was jon i would get garfield put down poor man:(

[Mutnt]

I love this song a lot, which is sad, considering that it seems like they didn't put nearly as much effort into this as some fo their songs that I don't like as much.

[ryanisfootdrums]

This song is great. They didn't need to do anything more to it.

[imanerd36]

I think that's part of the charm of this song, it's very raw, and fresh. It's deep, yet shallow. I really like this song for that reason.

[kekkaishixfan]

dude he erased garfield just like garfield with out garfield

[jeffstormer]

I did not know that. Thank you for updating me. I hope that in the future, you can use this mastery of wit and charm to help enlighten all lives like you have just enlightened mine.

[TimBisleyProductions]

So Green Day Rock? And TMBG suck? yet who will be remembered? TMBG for being a completely original band. Green Day for erm... being corporate hacks who wrote some of the worst songs ever. Fuck off back to your pop band!! your what we call, a CUNT. who likes a shit band. I'll stick with my orginal band. you keep your repetive 3 chord crap. im sure you spend hours in your room trying to get a band together so you too can be a corprate pop band.

[Mutnt]

Hey Dude. Tim. Please Fuck off. Both bands are just fine. Both of you assholes should stop pushing your fucking oppinions onto other people and pretending that they're facts. Both of you are being fucking stupid. Do you guys even know what Oppinion means? Apparently not.

[zknighty]

shut up garfield will neva die he rules!!!!!!!

[HeyArnoldsspleen]

Fuck you.

[suchducks]

I love Garfield Without Garfield. I also love TMBG. Nice.
