Damn i wish i was there to see that.... Id so join in and start crumping. Though i live in australia, and have no clue how to 'crump', let alone dance.
Love, love, love this song & the band. Love everything about it & them. Tune, lyrics everything. Saw them at Kylie's Aphrodite tour in Sydney as her back up band. I enjoyed them more than Kylie I think LOL! Can't wait to see their success and hear future songs. Love Em....
Every now and then something wonderfully different comes along. This is one of those somethings. How clever - but at what - who cares? Note the fixed non-comprehending, passively hostile, expressions of some spectators - how they are not getting it - whatever it is (just FUN?) And, yeah, the sandwich man's perfect. Love the chic in the short skirt and long socks.
The song itself is excellent, but the video is entrancing. Especially the main guy in the white shirt, dancing like he is evoking the others, like Prospero summoning the spirits or something. Awesome, awesome, awesome, thank you thank you thank you.
there are clearly at least 3 people out there who need to cut down on their leisure activities, that masterbaters claw cramp has done terrible things for video dislike ratings world wide.
The man in white looked pleasantly surprised by his new friends. Maybe he was someone who regularly came out there to dance but people laughed and judged him for it. Then comes along this group to show these people that our heads are all stuck in these boxes that reflect what we want society to see. But after they take off the boxes, they show them that everyone is different and should be. Uniqueness is something to be embraced.
Whatever the meaning is, this music video and song is incredible.
@BooteeSnatcha right on! where was it? It's definitely not Brisbane coz that's where I'm at, but it would be cool if someone could validate if that man indeed is as you says. That makes this video concept all the more appealing!
I wanted to link some German friends to this video: NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR COUNTRY. Guys! How can people buy your stuff when they never get to know it? This video has been made in London, but it's not available in Hamburg. What's the point?
Wow! This song has captured me like few other new songs have. Yes, it's "retro" in its sound, but there's something blissfully dreamy about it. I can both think about it and NOT think about it. I guess that's what makes a good song.
I 1st heard this song on a Qantas 23 hour flight from London to Sydney and also lasty night from Bangkok to London, got home and googled the words and found it love it!
I found you!!! Was on the Oprah trip on Qantas from LAX to SYD in December 2010. Had to ask my blog readers to figure out this song for me. Entered my subconscious since I was sleeping on a lot of the trip, so I never caught your name --group or song. Yay! Jen of Oz, thank you!!
You should remove that message on the video ~ it is SO annoying!!!! or at least have a close button!!!!!! Spoils a great video with a great sound ~ love this band ...
@ChenoCasbo In the bottom bar of the player there is a button that looks like a red speech bubble. If you click it (turns grey) it removes overlaid text from videos.
@Chris51: you are correct, commercial stations won't tale risks on unsigned or small artists but they can't really afford to. I don't mind that they play stuff like this after Jjj discovered it, but they shouldn't be able to say new music first.
Ahhh, what an awesome video, what a magical album, Gilgamesh is definitely one of my favs of 2010 already. Along with The Golden Filter, Anoraak and of course Goldfrapp ^_^
Great Band. Their album Gilgamesh is album of the week on Triple J. Interesting that commercial radio used to literally take months before they picked up a song off Triple J now they poach them almost weekly. But they still won't support Aussie bands unless Triple J plays them first or they are insipid artists like Jessica Mauboy and her style of 12 - 13 year old kiddies music.
@denidowi - that;s great but the point remains, if Triple J hadn't looked at them them commercial more than likely wouldn't either because they aren't pretty little divas that sing R&B and limp wristed rock for little boys. And now even the great band TOTO are working with them.
I love this song. I've hear Gypsy & the Cat are playing Water Rats in London Wednesday the 27th October. Have you heard the Aeroplane remix of the Piper's song?
One of those songs that strike a chord with your heart the moment you hear it. It took me awhile to put my finger on it, but does anyone notice similarities between the isntrumental (especially at the start) and A Perfect Circle - Space Age Love Song?
