Serj Tankian - Honking Antelope

[DArd0NE]

the piano sounds like sky is over just mixed up

[Jokerofspade]

It's true you cant heal the world with a song now days because people are so close minded to different things. But you can cure atleast 1 person with a song and honestly thats a start.

[trueuchiha26]

this video make me cry :cry:

[xTayy1]

The beginning sounds like a weird version of the intro in Sky Is Over.

[counternub]

0:54 army is coming out of a mans mouth. words hurt more than physical actions? i dont know.. thats my theory.

[beanerpower33]

i enjoy this mans videos

[Nfleury87]

Its about asymetrical warfare, how we look like technological tyrants compared to other countries. look at the shock and awe of baghdad. it could be mayans being crushed by spanish, native americans by the english. its about how we exterminate others' cultures, and treat the people of those cultures, well, like animals (the monkeys) and how we must look to them.

i think..

[sven1122666]

I think the meaning of this song is that we all just follow each other and do whatever is told.

We just blindly follow each other without wondering why. I think the flying robot is meant as the transcendence.

For those who dont know what transcendence is. It means that you find out that you don`t have to follow people blindly and dont have to do what they say but that you have your own mind. You can choose what you do and what you wear. Not others no one should make choices for others

[AntireNavarro]

The god of music: serj tankian

[jenyfr80]

the best thing would happen in the life of the world that people started to listen to the messages we give this great man in his songs, all slowly began to take consiencia about what we are doing to mother earth, you too can help Serj doing something on your part and pass on good ideas to others. For start somewhere!!

[jenyfr80]

seria lo mejor que pasara en la vida del mundo que las personas comenzaran a escuchar los mensajes que nos da este grandioso ser humano en sus canciones, que todos poco a poco comenzaran a tomar consiencia sobre lo que le estamos haciendo a la madre Tierra, tu tambien puedes ayudar a Serj haciendo algo por tu parte y transmitir ideas buenas a las demas personas. Por algo se empieza!!!!

[Alexandr437]

Главные герои Чебурашки?

[MrDeestan]

@Alexandr437 Нет, твоих там замечено не было.

[Alexandr437]

@MrDeestan будь немного проще и к тебе люди потянутся.

[MrDeestan]

@Alexandr437 Дружище, прости меня за грубость. Клип мне пришёлся близко к сердцу, твоей иронии я не понял, ну вот сгоряча и нахамил. Извини, пожалуйста.)))

[MrMythicalovsky]

nature will survive us

[suffri1993]

@MrMythicalovsky yes, but the dumb humanity will never see we're next to the end..

[MrMythicalovsky]

@suffri1993 exactly , it's just a matter of time, but music will make my end allot easier :)

[CtrlAltDeleteYurAzz]

Can anyone else imagine a JB fan finding this? they'd be all ~ZOMGCHKNMCNUGGTS this song is so much better then that teenage drama dribble shit~

[Snowhunter21]

My interpretation, albeit a poor one, Is that maybe that we humans will understand what the fuck we are doing when things are inverted, like when we're mindlessly crossing the street on all fours and we see an antelope in a car, honking at us instead of the usual vice-versa.

[TheRockerZ90]

HUMAN WON`T PROTECT THE GREATEST GOD CREATION

[getintoawheelchair]

@TheRockerZ90 That's the stupidest shit I've ever heard because man created God because without man there would be no God.

Go away.

[CtrlAltDeleteYurAzz]

@getintoawheelchair

i take it your christian?

[getintoawheelchair]

@CtrlAltDeleteYurAzz I take it your stupid as shit. I was saying that MAN CREATED GOD. NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.

I'm an Atheist.

Now, go away.

[CtrlAltDeleteYurAzz]

@getintoawheelchair <.< I replied to your comment drunk :/ sorry Dx

[counternub]

@CtrlAltDeleteYurAzz so when you get drunk, you go on youtube? fairly sad..

[CtrlAltDeleteYurAzz]

@getintoawheelchair Humans are the real animals.

[jcoutolalala]

lol in the begining i thought i was earing sky s over ...

[LikecProductions]

Dear Serj Tankian... You are the most epic man in the world... The only one I know about that fights against the world... Not for himself... But for everyone else...

[CrazyCaimen121]

@LikecProductions quite ironic that he fight so hard to ''everyone'' that he just so happens to make loads of money from his music.......yeah technology is destroying our environment but think about it, he uses technology to get his message across so in turn isnt he being abit of a hypocrite?

[TheSicSmurf]

@CrazyCaimen121 yes he is. Being a hypocrite is human nature. everyone does it at some level. If he really was above it all then her would give his music away for free, or only charge for production costs like NIN does.

[Dropkickjosh8]

RON PAUL 2012

[xxDanielTM93xx]

@Dropkickjosh8 Ron Paul and Serj both want peace.

Romney is pro war

[Sirpackerfan8812]

dear diary: just had an awesome idead for a video game "BATTLE MONKEYS"

[sizorblade]

Because Humans are too mainstream

[baymandernamonia]

everybody and everything has feelings, humans, robots, animals. though some humans choose to put aside their feelings, these are the terrorists, those who care not for other people, if we took our feelings with pride we would be able to live in peace. there is no god, only man and we are the gods of our earth, each and every one of us.

[facinelli3944]

amazing song :)

[hugimos]

0:00 wtf sky is over? lol

[lisnavy1]

@hugimos don't be stupid. if you cant respect his art than don't attempt to insult it please

[hugimos]

@lisnavy1 lolll hahahahahahahahahahah.......  put on youtube serj tankian - sky is over and next talk to me!!! lol

[hugimos]

@lisnavy1 the begining is almost the same!!! understand???

[RunningFromLions666]

When I turn 18, I'm getting "wouldn't it be great to heal the world with only a song" tattooed on my arm.

[TheJack2895]

0:00 Sound Like Sky Is Over!

[amitbenavi]

Serj is just epic!

[IXxdimonxXI]

it surprisingly speaks to me

iv got tears in may ease

[serjcrazy]

i think trhe meaning that thousands of people die in war and at the same time we are destroying the earth

[turokdragonable]

yes it is very sad that us humans still don't understand the meaning of PEACE.......many years later, in the future robots are now carrying on our lives and still fighting on earth. Brings sadness to me......

[ssg94videos]

2:00 NO ROBO-MONKEY NOOOOOOOO

[massmayemproductions]

GENIUS!!!!! i love the message in every one of his songs, i sometimes only find out in comments though

[maxseth1]

When it says honking antelope he means somethings thats not right(: Just for who did not know:D

[JAREDJENSENLOVER]

Wow, I just noticed that the robot is called GA-B1-G.5, and "gabig" in Armenian means monkey ;) Or, maybe, it's just a coincidence

[K1llerKlan]

All of his songs are like poetry within a hidden message inside telling us the fate of the world...

[ImmoralFlame68785675]

Goosebumps...

[hugojunior93]

his music is so "not mainstream"

i love it

[kayleekreidel38]

i wish i could meet serj or just talk to him. he makes amazing songs

[gabriel321654987af]

I just wish I could shake his hand before dying.

[slumster81]

What I think the meaning of the video in my own interpertation is that nature will always thrive and we fall,our own doing is the wrong. We live in a beautiful world but our doin aint worth a fuck.

[dandan6365]

only a song ? no... that's not enough you need a song for evrey powerfull man in the governament, army and the man in the shadow of world mafia to heal this rotten plannet

[JollSSteR]

Thats us :(

[bondaga100]

robot monkey...

[SawThings81]

this song can mean something different to different people but to me it's about how man is fucking up the earth. Nature was around before us and will be around after we kill ourselves. It would be great if someone could just sing a song to fix it.

[Codylupardus]

@SawThings81 Maybe a lot of singing can help reverse it! A song (ready to fall by rise against) helped make me take better care of earth and all of its creatures. :)

[deumeth]

The video fits the song. Serj, you and Daron are my heroes. Your music has inspired me beyond conception. Well into my own music now. I never got to see System of a Down live but just knowing the band didn't die of drug overdose, aids/hiv, or plane crash kind of makes up for that. You can split into bands but never split from the music. Thank you.

[RodrigoDegrecci]

I had the time of my life watching SOAD live in Sao Paulo - Brazil. Serj is one of my favorite artists. Can't stop listening to all SOAD albums and Elect the Dead. Each song's melody is a masterpiece, blessed with Serj's brilliant voice.

[Daxesis]

I just cannot choose which of the Serj's songs is the best one, I love them all <3

[GuitarGuy506]

i really hope that during System of a Down's touring (for all the people still in the dark, they're back!) that they do this song. all i could hear on the choruses was Serj and Daron.

[sissyXr]

we are the cause of a world thats going wrong.civilization is over!ELECT THE DEAD.

[georgerelax7302]

there are so many beautiful things in the world and all we do is making wars...with a little effort you can get so much satisfaction and gratitude. please stop wars and start taking sources from where they are not needed and send them to where they need them.

[riffleshuffle1]

I can hear and feel the pain in your voice Serj..what has this world come to?

[zomb1esn1per14]

government around the world...fake promises! people we elect to rise! what we need is some people who will stop creating tanks and aeroplanes and start building economy and spending government money on the survival and wellbeing of the people instead! sure go on fight the obvious (punks,robbers,thieves ETC) but unless all of us realise and stand we wont achieve anything. serj is a great man and he has devoted his life,not for the money but to show us what is really going on and to save our shit

[MrPypap]

@zomb1esn1per14 You assume its all the government, the U.S. government knew they needed more oil so as to keep americans comfortable and they knew Iraq had the worlds largest oil supply they just need a reason to fight, and once those towers fell the al queda brought war upon themselves and their families and americans got rewarded with oil and 'revenge'.

[Codylupardus]

@zomb1esn1per14 Plus, arresting the symptom doesn't fix the problem. America has one of the worst social ladders of developed countries.

[CriticaLxThoughX]

nature will survive us...

[deliriumrerum]

k buen tema

[LinkLove47310]

MONKEYS!! <3

[dawusupman]

i dont get the monkey robot thing, is it there to be there or is there a meaning? best meaning i could think of is like, we are all monkeys and (robot) slaves? dunno

[SMACKu2b]

@dawusupman Monkeys are a part of nature. Robots are man made. My best idea on what it means is man is destroying nature, making it into it's own little play thing. of course it has a meaning. Everything in Serj's videos have a meaning of some sort.

[MrBobguything]

@SMACKu2b these monkeys are not part of nature as you can see their robots

[SMACKu2b]

@MrBobguything Thats what I said. Man made the robots, integrated the robots into nature. no shit there robots downy

[zZorgZz]

@SMACKu2b Serj talked about this song in this interview watch?v=bpqI7hWM7QY&feature=re­lated

He talks about an inverted world, of some sort. Just to let you know :)

[counternub]

@SMACKu2b nature has changed so much, that we consider technology normal. when we dont know how its effecting our earth.

[instantsurgery]

@SMACKu2b the monkeys are us....humans. or what we were before we became corrupt

[ArminJohansson]

lol. Humans are made to fight. thats why we alway have fought. Its simply in our genes, just instinct.

[maksimus3630]

I IM RUSSIAN AND I NOT HAVE WAR...

13 JUJAS HAVE THIS WAR NO ALL JUJAS

[maksimus3630]

war is coming

USA vs RUSSIA-WORLD IS BE DEAD:(

AMERIKANS PEOPLE STOP YOUR POLITIKALS-YOUR KILL WORLDS

[xxTingTingManxx]

@maksimus3630 trust me we try are government is so broken they dont do anything that we want them to do they do what THEY want to do ); im sorry....... we try

[xxTingTingManxx]

@maksimus3630 Our*

[FullSailForEpiqFail]

A swedish astronaut said something like this is a interview after being in space.

"When you are on the planet, you see the borders, and the walls. But from up above in the space, you see one, free planet"

When you think about the meaning of the words, its really true.

[thekillervaldez]

107 morons will never see a Honking Antelope

[HellOfTheSeason]

We Are The Cause Of The World Thats Gone Wrong,Civilization Is Over,

pure poetry.

[UnpopularRebel97]

this video actually made me cry

[karakuras]

@UnpopularRebel97 same



[whogotdmosh]

@UnpopularRebel97 thats so gangster <3

[dandan6365]

@UnpopularRebel97 you are not the only 1

[EmperorofEurasia]

I love serj and system but I don't understand why an antelope?

[KatarinaP81]

@EmperorofEurasia Antelope is one of the typical hunters' prays, you know how hunters like to spread the animal they've hunted on their car/truck and then honk as they approach their buddies, to make them see the kill? Well, we messed the planet so bad that soon we will become it's pray. 'We are the cause of the world that's gone wrong; nature will survive us, human dogs, after all...'

[EmperorofEurasia]

@KatarinaP81 Thanks that was helpful for understanding the context

[BeautyArmenian]

its funny how it looks like Gabig in the start

that means monkey in Armenia!

[takeafatschmidt]

Serj is a prodigy. Nobody can put into words everything that is happening right now. It is sad. We will all go down in history with a sad statue and a generation that didn't agree just like Serj said.

People won't look back on us like we look at the generations that preceded us. The heroes. The inventors. The geniuses. None of it. We will become the failed generation that became lazy and set humanity back 100 years.

[conker033]

And spread the message.

[conker033]

youtube ( dot ) com/watch?v=erjmivk6niQ

Stop it!

[EmperorofEurasia]

0:41 sniff...sniff...Roman!

[CtrlAltDeleteYurAzz]

Is it ad that this song makes me cry?... :")

[prometeheus]

Why it show´s only my views?

[SoadFan442]

Wheres the epic button?

[Dremons7]

See that detail, the robot's eye turns red while he's in the war. When it turns white, I think he was ready to die. But it shows blue at the very beggining and when he fell in love with the flying robot. That's what Serj tried to show, humans are corrupted by society, and near death we are neutral - religious thoughts

[TraptPurpleDeviI]

@garnetwolf100 I wants a Honking antelope>.>

[fabiopaivacampos]

qe animaçao relaxada

[PawciopPL]

godlike voice. saying "Serj for president" is like an insult

[TheSnakeSkull]

@PawciopPL

Also impossible, this man was born in Lebanon.

[cubanmisile]

Stop voting dilike on serj, u don't like his music, don't listen to it and don't hate either.

[Pact18]

@AMNMW This is so wrong... That is exactly what Serj wouldn't want you to do. He advocates a no god theorem, and here you are praying to him. That's simply an atrocity.

You can like him, look up to him, but please, please, PLEASE don't pray to him...

[garnetwolf100]

for my birthday... i want a flying laser shark ^-^

[devilseb2]

we are the generation who are faced with the problems of either destroying the world or saving it

[caelen911]

I have a feeling serj based his vid on linkin parks pts of athrety vid xD

awesome song though

[pyromaanisi]

It would be great if the world would be healed by a song...

[CtrlAltDeleteYurAzz]

@pyromaanisi It would but sadly it wont

[MrPypap]

@pyromaanisi You rhymed the song

[xboxlover749]

this tells a sad tale...

[Viccification]

This is seriously the best Song/Videoclip I ever witness

Thnx u god!

[ironpunch22]

@Viccification you didn´t watched empty walls?

[Deshift00]

Damn every time I watch this video I just choke up.

[Sasa93ka]

Wouldn't it be great to heal the world with only a song?

[NintendoGuy99]

Wow, this album is already four years old....

Time goes by really fucking fast.

[RandomeVideoTube]

My Jizz jizzed at this song..

[Nairod2]

[EnabaleChannel]

Really depressing song.

[fsbofrnprn]

this man will save the world

[cabbage000]

whats the story behind this video? oooOOh

[NagatoNoYuuutsu]

Serj I Love You!!!!!!

[acadreading02]

I find no words to describe...what I feel and think when I listen to this song and see this vid. What a masterpiece!

[mkal80]

serjical strike records:P AWESOME

[silberhorn]

Serj has the point. But I think we (the human race) are smart and egoistic enough to continue to live through. The only question is, Will we have the brains not to harden it for ourselves? Because everyone above IQ70 knows that destructing our environment won't help in our quest for survival in the long term

[counternub]

@silberhorn yeah most people know that, but they dont give a shit. thats the problem..

[Anarchy777Resistance]

Serj and the rest of system have seen the darkest and most devilish parts of humanity and they speak the truth to you because if enough people knew the truth and stood up we all could make the world a better place Like if you agree

[schmonyon]

@Anarchy777Resistance No they havent, serj moved to california when he was 7 pretty sure he didnt see that much terrible stuff

[MrRev180]

@schmonyon there is so much fucked up shit in this world just cause he was seven doesn't mean he never saw anything most people remember all types of shit when they were younger

[schmonyon]

@MrRev180 umad ?

[TheSk8metal]

@Anarchy777Resistance HELLMOTHERFUCKING YEAH

[DragonMasterXZ]

i wish i could listen to this song with the voice of daron malakian with him ! thumbs up if you want it too.

[crazycocobean454]

@Ryth1900 trololol... no not really. everything thats happening was bound to happen, we just sped the process up. 

[notdavidman]

@crazycocobean454 you think speeding it up isn't bad though?

[adrian5567]

Serj always makes songs that tell the truth about things that tells us the government or of the problems people have with each other I like his songs.

[TheKev134]

We are the cause of the world that has gone wrong...

[popstarfromhel]

@TheKev134

Not true.

[6thesystem6]

[Maravoc]

Le seul truc que je regrette , c'est de pas être anglais pour tout comprendre par moi même :( ( ou être bilingue)

[253913y]

Serj Tankian and Roger Kupelian have discussed a collaboration extending this story and universe further. If you're into it, write Serj and let him know. :)
