EELS - Trouble With Dreams

[bowmaker11]

Love the eels.great observer of human folly,a frail soul like all of us.

[ratulupadhyay]

Eels & Coldplay forever and ever!

[ptrakk]

the trouble with dreams is that when someone wakes you up in a good one. no matter if you go back to sleep and have the dream it might not be the same one.

[Manfred585]

for 22 people life will never be the same.

[kymusabi]

This album is so fucking good.

[hushhushonigiri]

i hate that this song explains my thoughts. : [

[Syntaax]

Thumbs up if after hearing Eels for the first time you knew your life would never be the same again.

[Kxbritxfxr]

Wow im very grateful with shrek 2, because now i listen every day to Eels...thanks a lot!

[fliptopia]

@Kxbritxfxr did it get you into tom waits and nick cave too?? I really should buy the soundtrack.

[000TwistedFreak]

i swear if the beatles wrote this it would be considered a true classic!

[DollSteakFrenchie]

this is pretty much about my life at the minute... especially the line "you don't need a thing from me but i need something big from you"- this sums up my failure of a love life quite aptly xxx

[AeroAstro]

@DollSteakFrenchie Don't worry, mate - I'm in a pretty good relationship but I feel like that all the time anyway!

[kylethejew1234]

good vid

[Junibluehair]

This is really really amazing.

[Adamkilb]

I can imagine playing this on Hallow'een...

[6KingCooper6]

random video deserves a random comment. Paul is dead. Thank you.

[leopardspots2004]

totally identify with the song. trippy video

[TonyBono]

Last time I saw Eels live, the band came out for a THIRD encore a good twenty minutes after the house lights went up.  There maybe twenty people left in the club. It was fantastic.

[ptl79]

@TonyBono now that is cool!

[justplayfm]

This video was just added to a music playlist at JustPlay.fm

[satanslayer17]

LAGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!! jk

[mbagely]

bass and drums solo bit before the organ thing kicks in is insane

[PredatorFilmsInc]

Although there are many rock bands from the States who are far more popular than The Eels ever were (crappy Kings of Leon for example), there are very few bands who can match the love for this amazing band.

[Muaion]

@PredatorFilmsInc I agree with you, but Kings of Leon is not crappy, there are far worse shit out there.

[zaidabanksnyc]

Nice ♫

[MrEMinor]

nice pyjamas haha

[schirmmutze]

Love is not a strong enough word to describe my feelings for Eels,

[MagicalSunrise1984]

Great track!

[A2daM2daZ]

this song sort of lulls me to sleep. it's not creepy or depressing. it's honest, reassuring, and unique. it's like those old melancholy lullabies that people used to sing without realizing how dark it's connotations were.

i like it. plain and simple

[axemahn]

this was actually a really good music video. wtf i felt like i was watching an indie film or something

[TheCrazyCookie7]

All there songs sound so unique and different. I havn't heard many of their songs but like the ones I've heard so far.

[Martialmaster92]

Cake and the Eels. And food and water. All I need to be happy.

[voices133]

@Martialmaster92

cake the band? or food?

[whackyronu]

@voices133 OF COURSE

[luxplace12345]

Love this song!

[slicknicknirvana]

Sounds like the Twilight Zone theme

[ShadowSoldior]

RUH-ROH! ROOK OUT, REELS! ROASTS!

[NotSoSimpleAfterAll]

Eels are making my life.

[MojaveMomma]

@NotSoSimpleAfterAll

Don't they?  I'm with you!

[MrStephen182]

My life would be all the worse if this band were not in it.

[spudlington]

Eels are nearly the most under-appreciated bands of all time, pity.

[jezzerusuk]

The thing i like about this video, is that it makes me realise what youtube would be like on dial up

[SorenTalen]

I haven't heard this one. It's catchy, though maybe not as much as their other songs. Still, I really enjoyed it. ^_____________^ na-na'na-na... na-na'na-na...

[ahriman306]

got to love eels :) great songs... weird is new popular (chuckle)

[theskafest77]

Świetny numer. Zawiera wszystko co lubię w Eels.

[DesultoryPoop]

It's such a shame that nobody I have ever talked to knows who Eels are. They happen to be the best band to exist.

[wimtobe]

@DesultoryPoop true that! 

[jijmetjebekje]

Heb veel grote dromen.........

[grassprietjenummer47]

@jijmetjebekje koester ze!

[bucksatan1111]

Great song. Great band. But some of the music in this song definetly ripped from Velvet Underground.

[tvdguitar]

@bucksatan1111 The Eels take samples from songs. Many bands do this. CAKE, Atmosphere, Daft punk.

[danielborges69]

Matrix sounds at: 3:05 !

[spic3lan3]

Good video..makes no sense just like dreams..

[monivalinsky]

kore iina

[cholocharile]

This is good.

[89Annetje]

<33

[MichaelOhara]

the end of the song is super awesome

[Codyje]

Totally agree

[FireHo57]

the verse is kinda spooky...

[grunsiboy]

i totally agree with jakob. damn good lyrics :D

[verasakete]

awesome song, awesome band !!

[mightymoomin]

Good song from a good album by a perfect artist.

And a good video, very Strawberry Fields Forever.

[miaow777]

E's book is really good (Things the Grandchildren Should Know). I 've seen them live 4 times and they are AWESOME!

[WENDYWAZOO2]

When the hell is he going to tour? I have to see him live.

[DerAntagonist]

Great song. It very much resembles Flyswatter though.

[jakob450]

the lyrics are so goddamn good...unbelievable :D

[borisderabbit]

love the organ solo...

[ihahenxXx]

Eels is one of the rare bands to where any of their songs could be a single.

[ukulazy]

really? I think they are one the the few bands who DON'T have 'singles'... it's all good. =)

[777drummerofdeath777]

this song is great!!! I love this band, I mainly listen to the heavier stuff...but these guys are just soo good, music that comes around once in a lifetime

[xplay3r]

i had a dream last night that i wished would come true so bad and all i could think of was this song lol

now i cant stoplistening to it. i love the eels mr.e is such an amazing song writer

[mrfrosty8172]

damn i wonder if they're new album is going to be anywhere close to being as good as Retro-shock blues

[procman2004]

course they are - eels are the best band in the world

[mastercoc]

Great tune, great band too!

[PINNGUINA]

love this band!

[cohenandloynds]

Out of all of them, I still love Dirty Girl.

[eddiecullen]

J.L.E

Just Love Eels

I think that 'I Need Some Sleep' is the best song ever in the world.

[bobcake88]

Definately the best Eels song, it's so perfect and is definately one of the best songs in the world, there is nothing to dislike about it.

llap

[HumanR0bot]

Definatley i'd say "that fresh feeling" is their 2nd best, or maybe "hey man".

[jutotheli]

AHHHH! I just met Bobby Jr!

[chbushong]

really haha thats cool

[jmtbrc]

great fuckin tune! ive got beard envy!

[melongeed]

@jmtbrc You should of seen them at Melbourne (Australia) Every band member had the same looking beard, bloody loved it.

[elwierdobeardo]

@jmtbrc Do you mean fuckin great tune? As in that tune is really good? Or do you mean great fuckin tune? Because I don't think I could fuck this tune, as I would lose my timing! Lol.

[elwierdobeardo]

@jmtbrc Oh and yeah you're right! My beard is just too small!

[superbelladonna]

@jmtbrc Hhaha, 'beard envy' :D love it!

[IrishEyedBlue]

The singer in this video kinda reminds me of Gordon Freeman from Half Life. At 3:38 you'll see.

[lewisduncan93]

rofl, so true!

[sylie113]

that guy is good

[snowgod37]

simply genuis

[tamelarry]

Who doesn't have a lot of big dreams?!

This is one of my favorite tracks by this collection of geniuses!!!

[snubmaster]

Great song, but I think "Novocaine for the Soul" still is their best one.

[freeece1]

It's the song that got me into the Eels but I think he's surpassed it since. I'd go for Climbing to the Moon I think, if I had to pick one.

[gologol]

Too many great ones.

Bus Stop Boxer and Medications Wearing Off come to mind. They are all kinda great aren't they?

[TouringTheWorldMusic]

The Chet and E went somewhere else with the drums and keyboard LIVE in a GIG in the UK ON 04-22-08 to this track absolutely awesome.

As a 'duo' they made more sound than when butch was in. Keep it up M.E. and the Chet.

[thelithopedion]

Saw them in Belfast last night, Popey :D

How was it for you?

[secretjesusphreak]

Yeah, I saw them in Belfast last night too...thought it was excellent, but no way could they top E's drumming in Flyswatter...probably should have left that till last!

[PopeMarmalade3rd]

Saw them in Vicar street in Dublin on St Patricks day fabulous.

[StudioGuyMN]

One of their best

[tykemeawaywyou]

this song is amazing.

[mufasa7200]

The eels rock yesterday i went to their concert in groningen it rocked!!

[shubbymanila]

I went to see them at the Royal Festival Hall in London last night. I was in the Royal Box with my Mum as a Queen lookalike! E had invited the real Queen but they used my mum instead! E's a cool guy and VERY talented. Just two guys on stage, E and Chet, both superb multi-instrumentalists. Enthralling.

[ianemb]

So that was your mam....Fantastic gig ...but where did you disappear to for the final encore? E was about to address your Mam again but the box was empty!!

[shubbymanila]

Eric the tour manager came and dragged us out! We were pissed off, as we wanted to see the whole gig, but we met him and Chet in their dressing room afterwards so it didn't end in a damp squib! Glad you enjoyed it too. Tell me, did the audience stand up when the national anthem was played? It was hard to see...

[ianemb]

I'm sorry to say we were all oblivious to what was going on until near the end of the anthem........There were a handfull of people who did and I didn't realise the joke until near the end..........................

Actually only started listening to the Eels a few months ago but I've been addicted ever since.....E has to be one of the best artists around.......Songwriting is genius!!

[aGxAnima]

Hey shubby, I'm interested in your story :P lol.. why did you get dragged out etc?!

[shubbymanila]

Unfortunately it was nothing spectacular! We were told before we were ushered into the Royal Box that Eric would come and get us at the end of the gig, but obviously the guys hadn't completely finished playing when he came to get us so we missed the proper end. So it wasn't like we trashed the place or anything!

[shubbymanila]

That was my brother and I as her 'Security' BTW...

[promiseIsaih60]

Where was this filmed? The scenery is beautiful.

[sheeba8188]

Same here seeing them on thursday in Glasgow! Can't wait!

[nonniie88]

I'm going to their concert 13th of march in Holland!

We love you Mr. E!

[flepser]

Hey mate, same here, in Utrecht :) Looking forward to it!

[allaaff]

I'm dutch too :p

The eels are fantastic

Raamkla(Alkmaar) De beste!

[ittemimario]

eels sind super

[noyzone01]

thumbs up for dutch pride!! Seeing them in san fran soon!!

Greetz from AZ to all of E's fans...

[Isatopia]

What does hawt mean? Im dutch so i can ask this question..

[kingcobra20]

those jokers are just using hawt for the word hot, as in awesome.  and in this case rockin'

[afaiienphoenix]

i do believe the word hawt is not hawt.

[bazilisk]

He is always hawt because of his creativity and intelligence and good taste. That all means hawt.

Oh, and thick glasses don't hurt, either. XD

Great song, great video, great artist. . .

[wintergreenwolf]

ahaha i love his PJ's

there hawt

[tommyhogan]

they say the shins will save your life... my ass, eels are the only 1's who can save us now!

[celestial89]

[yblad]

[PointlessPriest]

YAY! A Lot Of "me 2´s"! lol

[deotior]

E's not a winey bitch...most of the lyrics are actually inspired by his father the late great mind of Hugh Everett a genius in quantum mechanics...and to say his stuff is shit is an insult..could you do better???? didnt think so lol

[Ceailynn]

I like birds and this one are my favorite songs of theirs.

[methariel]

Ive gotta say Blinking lights is by far their worst album.

[scaredweepel]

you've not listened to it enough then! Go make some tea and put it on!

[methariel]

You might be right; "In the yard, behind the church" is pretty cool.

[noyzone01]

DUDE (methariel) - thats my ultimate feel-good song!! thought nobody knew that one :)

Vastly underrated song in my opinion...wish they would bust it out in concert more.

[11010111]

you gotta be in the mood ye

[PointlessPriest]

tea?i prefer beer when i listen 2 them =)

[scaredweepel]

lol likewise but it's awesome on those boring sunday mornings, flick on a track and flick on the kettle on for some tea! ^_^ maybe just me!

[TheOreoMan]

The instrumentals sound a lot like Flyswatter.

[laudanumchen]

i love all the music by eels. and this song is one of the best!

[butterflymatron]

EELS ROOOOCK SO HARD!!!! love it, freakin love it all.

[asstezz]

it's genius again from eels- been there
