[WeAreSoFreak]

Remind me a lot of think ...



[hugostephandu12]

Magnifique musique, et chanson

[Headmasterritual92]

remember when this was number 1. Now imagine this being number 1 now, just 6 years later. Times have changed...

[AusAsia]

Is this their original work? It has that lush 70s/80s sound to it.

[nonjudgable]

Holy I clicked the link to this song by mistake... One of the best mistakes I have ever made might I add!

[dorielparkes]

just bought tickets to a festival in my town (pontefract) and they're headlining. bargain for 30quid :)

[ssrocksss]

Why do people have the need to fight over this song? Just because it's called "America". It could be called "England" and everyone would be like: "Oh! England is great!"

[waggz7]

PLAYING HERE SOON facebook.com /wearecrookedways

[VCthaGOATdunker]

I seriously thought this was a song from the 80s. I'm surprised.

[DDslinky]

@VCthaGOATdunker - Huh. So that's why like this song so much.

[MaszBanaa]

KOCHAM TĘ PIOSENKĘĘĘ, SZUKAŁAM JEJ BITE 4 (?) LATA!

[Sepercoolevetteguy]

just a beautiful number! :)

[secret10star]

this song means so much to the real world

[secret10star]

this song has so much meaning to real life

[TheCaelanB]

i remember the summer when this song came out you couldn't walk 100 metres without hearing some razorlight and what a summer it was!

[majormatress]

I have an answer and it is the right answer. The poor are not really classed as people (they are below people but just above fish), and they got that way by doing drugs and having unprotected sex with needles. Americans went to Vietnam to help the people there, we are kind and sacrificed our lives to help other countries that are shit compared to America. I am a patriot and America is the model of a perfect country just as God intended it to be.. You are just a fool misguided by youth.

[meloveyou38]

@majormatress well, that's what Hitler thought about Germany... 

[majormatress]

@meloveyou38 Another great man in history. I'm sorry, your point is?

[spartanwithmoobs]

@majormatress ummmm America is great and all...I'd hardly say it was perfect though mate, possible because its filled with "misguided fools" such as yourself

[majormatress]

@spartanwithmoobs Nah man, we are the patriots, everyone else just complains about stuff because they have nothing better to do. You are just a complainer who complains about Africa being poor and stuff, like that's our problem.

[Fear0912345]

@majormatress Suffering should be everyones problem. Also, America never seems to actually help those countries it invades, have you noticed?

I'm not saying America is the worst country, I'm just saying they should do better.

[majormatress]

@Fear0912345 We invaded Iraq and brought democracy to the region, taking out a savage dictator. We invaded Afghanistan and made it the largest producer of heroin in the world. America is Number 1

[VentraleStar]

@Fear0912345 Pretty fucking sure the whole world need to do better. Splitting humanity up by countries is what caused half the problems we have now.

[majormatress]

America is the best country in the world. We just know what we're doing and have good reason to back up all our decisions. All other countries need to take a page out of America's book in my opinion....

[meloveyou38]

@majormatress You're american, aren't you? I hate seeing comments like these on YOUTUBE (and especially songs..). America is first of all not a country, it's a continent, and NO. It's not the best country in the world. I mean; what happens to the poor? Yeah.. You don't really have a properly answer, do you? All countries need to learn from each other. There is no: "number one" country.

Oh, and btw. Look up the Vietnam war...

[rockandrollforme]

bring on splendour 2012

[stapmnam]

im dutch but i love america !!

[MrHBWoody]

this is too beautiful too dislike

[blackflash1034]

[blackflash1034]

AMERICA SUCKS :D

[SyndiKateRapeTrain]

thumbs up if you came here from the killers-human song

[CassiveBrewster]

I used to love this song.

[noyoudontiwan]

@CassiveBrewster Arrow to the knee?

[CassiveBrewster]

@noyoudontiwan yeah, that's what happenend.

[grahamshiell]

chill your beans and just enjoy the music

[dragibusdu44]

Le chanteur est trop sexe!

[MrFrenchCheese]

@dragibusdu44

Vrai !

[dee78043]

toastedhippo excellent of you to criticise a good song. Obviously you are entitled to you opinion but I have a funny feeling that you have not sold tens of thousands of singles and basically know jack about what you are talking about. It maybe an idea for you to open the door and go outside as you obviously have too much time and not much knowledge of music.

[vziou]

@dee78043 I encourage you to stick with your 'Obviously you are entitled to your opinion' thing and let the funny feelings for another day. I also find this song mediocre and the Oh oh oh cheap, you find it great, no prob. But since when is the 'tens of thousands of singles sold' an indication of good music?

[parcourkid]

@vziou Because alot of people enjoyed, and bought it... They would'nt buy it if it was no good. Problem = Solved. You don't like this song, don't comment on a page most likely occupied by people that do like the song. Use your noggin' it's what it's there for chum!

[vziou]

@parcourkid Bieber also sells and much more than Razorlight. Makes it better music? Probably not but still it's a matter of personal taste, which is a concept apparently you don't like. And I will comment wherever I feel like as long as I dont insult anyone. It is a good band, I just don't like this song at all and felt like commenting after reading some comments. No big prob I guess.

[parcourkid]

@vziou I must say, you've got me on the Bieber thing, I have nothing intellectual to say. It's not I don't like personal taste, I'm fine with that, just whenever someone comments on a page dedicated for that particular song that they don't like, i also had the urge to comment, anything to put off an essay i guess...

[TheMechaGeek]

@vziou Comparing Bieber to X on YouTube is the same as comparing Nazis to X elsewhere on the internet, this means you just lost the game pal. Happy New Year!

[vziou]

@TheMechaGeek Wow. I 'm happy you seem so satisfied by your 'argument'. Even parcourkid with whom I had the 'debate' understood this simple example. I will make it even more simple for you since you seem confused. Sales have nothing to do with quality. Bieber was the most obvious example and I am surprised you didn't manage to stick with the meaning. By the way, which game did I lose? Are we 12 and trying to say something smarter than the others? Happy new year too.

[emmanuel94e]

beautiful song

[toastedhippo]

I find this song so dull, there are rhymes for the sake of it, and then "oh, oh, oh" when he can't find any. The bridge is also really poor. Typical of this sort of band - a country is having difficulty, so we'll write a cheap song in the hope that it will sell on the basis that it may resonate with the poor people unfortunate enough to hear it on the radio. Apart from that, terrific stuff, well done.

[gewooneffekrusten]

This is crap

[TheImmortalpivot]

@gewooneffekrusten Do you have reasoning for this claim ??

[Kirklet14]

2,020,724 cool number

[Christaphunk92]

2006 was a great year for UK bands and acts. You had Razorlight, The View, Paolo Nutini, The Kooks, the pigeon detectives... so many great bands!

[meloveyou38]

@Christaphunk92 arctic monkeys...?

[Christaphunk92]

@meloveyou38 your right man, and the Fratellis

[hachano24]

@Christaphunk92 how dare you leave out the best of them all, ARCTIC MONKEYS!! Oh, and the kooks are awful.

[MrNayl0r]

@Christaphunk92 Then again, it is rare for the UK to have a bad year in any creative industry, whether it be film or music. The UK has all the great ideas, just not the money to carry all of them off sometimes

[brigouil]

America!!!!!!

[xxaquilaxx]

@Christaphunk92 Your very right...... the killers as well....so many more...what happened?

[Bruvitsjoe]

Ratings badboy tune

[JonnyMcCraine22]

America is a great song but if you like this you should check out:

THE VINYLS-GET IT OUT OF YOUR HEAD

It only takes 3min and these guys are great!

[MarcusDrivesZxr]

@JonnyMcCraine22 I will listen....BUT. if they are bad let it be known that i am hunting you down for the three minutes i wont get back. If they are good you may sleep soundly at night knowing you've shown me a new band to listen to, if this is so i thank you in advance :D

[DuranDuran98]

@MarcusDrivesZxr your logic fails! You would hunt him down for your 3 mins wasted? That would take MONTHS

[msradioblast]

parts sound like anne from little britain.

[loolipop10]

To be honest though, When isn't there some kind of Panic-trouble incident in America?

[peacepacifist2011]

@loolipop10 Even more ironic is when they celebrate by firing shots into the sky, every now and then someone walks into a falling bullet.

[loolipop10]

@peacepacifist2011 Very true! Guns are like the equivalent of a teddy bear to people in America.

[raynonmi]

@loolipop10 blame the media for the drama ...they will always find something to hype-up

[loolipop10]

@raynonmi Yeah, hype up the truth

[blingcocacolakid]

@loolipop10 that day will come when mcdonalds is banned from america which will be never

[mostmusicisbad]

This band are the pioneers of landfill indie - the bland music, the generic indie uniform, the no-talent-but-wanna-be-seen-to­-be-in-a-band agenda. Not many bands single-handedly create a genre. Great stuff.

[samiyyang]

DIS SONG REMINDS ME OF MY OLD FRIEND LAURA FROM QUEENSBURY 2006 :-) xx

[innos]

This tune reminds me of california

[MrOska101]

Thumbs up if ur listening to this song in 2011 :D

[ozner25]

@foncleaa

What's wrong with Nigeria? Well its a very poor country with endemic diseases and a weak democracy. Not many sane people would like to go live there... And why would he be a racist?, he never said anything about race...

[foncleaa]

@ozner25 he did

[Deeluvsmusic97]

Ive been looking for this song for years aaaaaaaahh!!

[sagitario7402]

[iciMILF]

[zelda2908]

@Divingforfun96 No this is your opinion. do you see the world destroyed right now ? And america just makes the world change. i a good way

[AliasLykken]

The guitar riff is sooo realxing!

[xSlien]

[zelda2908]

[Kirst2001]

[zelda2908]

[ultramax9599]

[R3D991]

Why are people having a go at eachother, lets talk about how awsome the song is and give positive feedback, seriously guys :) Razorlight are an amazing band, and I love this song.

[brawlindude2]

next year im going.....america :)

[Eoaiyer21987rhei]

I'd always just assumed that this was by an American band...

[Baardnick]

@Eoaiyer21987rhei are they british?

[Eoaiyer21987rhei]

@Baardnick Yeah, English. Apparently this is about how boring American culture is, or something like that.

[foncleaa]

All my life, flooded by the bad movies from America

All my time, wasted listening to songs from America

All my body, poisoned by the food from America

All my friends, escaping from America

All my world, pissed off by America

Why should we focus on this so disappointed country?

[zelda2908]

@foncleaa I accualy love america cant wait to go again, why so much hate for such an awesome country ?

[zelda2908]

@foncleaa Why so much hate for such an amazing country ?

[MrCalendarboy]

@foncleaa r u anti american ? lol

[foncleaa]

@MrCalendarboy no, but sometime I find americans annoying

[GazBug]

@foncleaa Its a british song!!

[foncleaa]

@GazBug really ????? (ironic) No connection with the origin of the band but what that song can symbolise...

[akirasendoh02]

@foncleaa america is a continent not a country

[foncleaa]

@akirasendoh02 OOOhhhhh really ?

[homiezrgr8]

@akirasendoh02 no north america is lol.

[TythorZeth]

@foncleaa Go live in Nigeria then, pessimist.

[foncleaa]

@TythorZeth what's wrong with nigeria, racist.

[TythorZeth]

@foncleaa Please go to school and learn something. Nigeria is a shit country and there is nothing racist about that, the statistics are pure facts. I am not saying the citizens of Nigeria are shit so gtfo with your racist accusation.

[foncleaa]

@TythorZeth Please go to school and stop to be so condescend regarding other cultures. Because it's poor according your standard, there is no possibility to be happy in nigeria ? It's ridiculous. A very occidental vision of hapiness based on materialism.

[Deeluvsmusic97]

@TythorZeth Yeah what's wrong with Nigeria? Cunt.

[TythorZeth]

@Deeluvsmusic97 If you look at the statistics of Nigeria, it shows you that the country is complete shit. The government is corrupt, people die very young, a lot of people have AIDS, people are poor and too many people don't have enough food. There you go, that's my definition of a shitty country.

[Deeluvsmusic97]

@TythorZeth ahahahha you're an idiot. Nigeria is one of the most richest, most succesful countries in Africa & also has a great, budding economy. Statistics? What makes you believe they're actually accurate, obvs you're a very materialistic person. You can continue to believe you're 'statistics' but at least Im not foolish enough to believe numbers from a source who's proabably never entered/ or did any real research on Nigeria :)

[Deeluvsmusic97]

@TythorZeth You can reply if you want but I refuse to agrue with someone who knows nothing, on a great song's video

[tito2349]

@foncleaa America is not a Country....... Dumbass

[foncleaa]

@tito2349 nooooo I didn't know that :/

[xlFireman]

@foncleaa You're describing an entire region (western hemisphere) of the world. If you used the term "United States of America" instead of mindlessly spouting America, you would make some sense. Perhaps the country you live in is perfect? No. Then kindly shut the fuck up because you don't have the freedom of speech.

[foncleaa]

@xlFireman because YOU have the freedom of speech ?  ahahahahahah

[thekillers1stfan]

@foncleaa because, like it or not, what america does matters a lot

[blueday22]

@foncleaa i like your lyrics better

[IcammyboyI]

@foncleaa STFU and listen to the song :)

[foncleaa]

@IcammyboyI did I make any insulting comment ? I don't think so.

[lugas]

@foncleaa America is a continent! not just one nation!!

[foncleaa]

@lugas ooooooohhHH really ?

[Lilypiecesofrainbow]

This song is just beautiful. 

[tjibbey]

My vacation was in USA! Phoenix! WOW! I love USA!!! and this song as well!

[tr1ckygamer]

this song was ruined by my drunk brother coming in and doing a mega burp in my face

[BlackShadowMagicxx]

god, i love this song soooo much, and i could only remember the tune, not words or lyrics, and i couldn't remember who sang it. it drove me mental. but i remembered YAY!!! XD

[Aqlor]

too bad America smells funny and Americans are fat and silly like poopoo
