It's funny, if you search for the lyrics for this song, there's, like, five completely different interpretations. They can't even agree on the "everybody's welcome, everybody's welcome" part. to me, it's clear that that's what they're saying, but some people hear something else. Whatever. It's awesome.
@superdude1452 Then why did you watch it? It's pretty obvious you already knew who they were from the level of your contempt. Why did you search out a band you hate? To each his own, brother...if that's your thing. Me, I prefer listening to songs I like rather than ones I don't.
I think this is very well thought out. I am currently making a music video to this same song for a media studies project at school. You're ideas are inspiring and you had some really good camera shots. Big kudos to you!

the first few times i listened to them they did sound messy, it just seemed like a bunch of noise. then it just clicked, and they have been my favourite group ever since.
@shanimal47 Yeah they sound very messy at first because there's a lot going on but you got to listen to them a lot to be able to see all the different parts work together.
I DID. She's all like,"Dan, you have no idea how much I'd love to do that, each and every single day. But unfortunately I'm forced to treat all these other kids like they'll actually make a difference in society, and pretend that people care about them. But I'd gladly run away and marry you, even though our love would be forbidden. It's only because you're so perfect, Dan, and everything around you bows beneath you and shudders in terror at your absolute infinite talent."
@freedo791 i think this is sort of an ironic and funny comment.... how can you tell they're exactly like you and your friends.... from one video... of them dancing..in..the..snow...
I love animal collective, and despite the really strange depiction of what the song is about, it's your opinion and i think that it was done very nice. The baby part at first was really weird, but I think you wanted it to be weird- and weird is very Animal Collective. I mean, i thought it was fantastic, to be honest, and I think that the strange aspect makes it awesome.

Since when is a pack of annoying, hipster high school kids "being all Animal Collectivey" in the woods behind their mom's house considered art? It's just affected and corny. I really like Animal Collective's music, but their fan base seems to be made up of C grade scenesters, suburban teenagers and pretentious dipshits without an original thought to call their own. This is the opposite of art.
ok yes your right that we have money but for a place that we live and a school we go to, theres no one with any good sense of musical taste. The people at are school don't consider us hipsters because they don't know it means they just think were weird stoners. So dont judge us because maybe we know more music than you and listen to better music. We don't listen to animal collective that much or ever did. Are video wasnt in are moms backyard it was in a park. so were not scene or unorginal sofu
Animal Collective was once a bunch of "suburban teenagers". Shit, Panda went to Waldorf schools his entire life. I personally thought this video was pretty good and kinda funny. I agree that there are alot of teens that don AC like a badge of uniqueness, but you really don't have the basis of a real argument if you're judging THESE guys by a video they made combined with OTHER people you have seen/met. Your comment was pretentious in itself.
Hahaha. When I saw "school project" in the description I expected an embarrassing montage of strange nonsequetors, but that was actually creative and funny. Me likey.
Whoa, this is awesome! ha, when I saw the part with the doll I thought everyone was going to tear it apart...I rejoiced when instead the baby was inducted.
I think its cool how a lot of home made animal collective videos use a lot of the same camera shots. IE swaying trees and sunlight, its almost as if AC's music makes everyone see exactly what they want us to see. Seeing by hearing, if you will. and you will.
One of my favorite AC songs. Awesome video!
