[sailentshadow]

Alas, I have stumbled across my favorite song by Incubus.......

[jhengtoyhorada]

I always L♥VE this song even if ...♥ Brandon Boyd ♥....looks so gay in this vid! uhhmmm......

[godlyronaldo9]

Is this song about cocaine or what?

[sailentshadow]

@godlyronaldo9 Um, dunno if it's ABOUT it... But it has that subliminal message... Just like a bunch of other great bands that can never be replicated again.. Kinda like Tool..

[jpastelero]

700k views is an insult to this band

[cipher333]

Incubus is the kind of band that seems to have a song for everyone, for every mood, for every occasion.

[zazidizz]

incubus = fantastic!!! yes, with triple exclamation points - in my dictionary, that is :D

[skatechilli88]

Mike's hair is intense in this clip.

[walterpasillas]

the musicians never sleeps..

[markgerong1]

right .. they made a good music..

[ECLAIRPUNK]

incubus is fantastic...... they made good music.

[misswayawesome]

alright i am going to level out here did any of you ever think that maybe, just maybe, Brandon Boyd is a clever other-worldly, bright, intellectual, and opinionated man? A lyrical genius and a melodically intense artist? This song is clearly deeper than most of you can even begin to fathom. Just like many more of their songs. P.S. pleeeeeeeeassse troll me, I have a great big bridge you can live under with lots of room and running water. (if you are intelligent at all you will understand that)

[isaiahmikael]

incubus is a part of my life!!

[theadamsboyreyman]

[AudioTruth911]

i think they are heavily influenced by george orwell's "animal farm" and "Nineteen Eighty-four"in this song

[foreztgump]

The music video for Incubus's "Talk Shows On Mute".

[CyberJuanito]

f me sideways, i´m still sad for not going to the concert.

[MorenaMG100]

Amo incubus♥

[bobjames55555]

simple song!

[blackpens]

Deko57 I guess the clip is a mix between Orwell's novels "the animal farm" and "1984"

besides probably this one has been made before "hey ya"

[maripositadoc]

BRANDON BOYD..!!(L)...

[Declaraluciano]

o brasil ama incubusssssss

[bilatra143]

aztig 8 so cool u^_6

[uglefisken]

i wish more of u actually understanded what he tries to say behind the lines..... Yeah i know the music is beautifull,, But the lyrics is also deep like the ocean... try read 1984 by george orwell to understand why he says "come one come all to 1984...." so u understand more of his lyrics....

[broodm]

@uglefisken haven't read the novel, but i just wiki-ed it.

it seems i was right all along when it comes to its interpretation (politics and mind control in general) unless theres more something into it

[Deko57]

the song soud like come as you are, and the clip looks like hey ya.

[indigohiphop]

@Deko57 OH HELL NAW!

[riixrock]

tan solo escucharla se me hizo fazinante!

the best

[cindydtc]

this song sounds a bit like "come as you are".

[wada90]

yeeeeaaaah!!!!!!!! i'm agreee!

[tpnit83]

i´d say it sounds a lot like 'come as you are'

[rainbow346257]

OMG i've been looking for this song for 3 years cos i couldn't remember any of the lyrics but only one word,AMERICA,last week i finally heard it on the radio again,so here i am!!! :D

[larojned]

@rainbow346257 haha same here the only word i remember was america and 1984

[Jackiam18]

i love it how the chorus spells COCAINE:))

[GabJero]

OMG WOW i love how you noticed that!

[jonallinyang]

I totally agree with you yyouly:) Brandon's hot, and so as everyone in the band! I love Jose!

[Sndrt123]

[Kinga771990]

Shido shido me encanta incubus!!!!

[mcknifey2]

even without dirk this album was awesome, so they did something right here, its a shame that light grenades didnt keep up the standard,

still best band even imo ^.^

[WhatDaSausage]

Suck it. It sounded different, it was still a great album.

[yyouly]

this song is based on both 1984 and animal farm i think. in 1984 citizens are perpetually watched over by the government through hidden cameras and tvs (if i recall correctly). both books explore similar themes and the general theme of this song can be referred to both. but actually all i can think about while seeing this vid is how hot brandon is...lol...NOT to say that thats all he is.

[beccabunga1]

love this song there rly gd first time i have hrard them but there so gd love the lead singers voice xx

[Pirilampinha01]

Brandon viadiinhoo.

[dbz3r0]

gotta love everything abt Incubus! :D

[cpofirefly]

ooo you're smart. and isn't 1984 also another of Orwell's books? i'm sensing a theme...

[Edfiki86]

@whenusmiling NO!

[ECLAIRPUNK]

@whenusmiling that is so wrong!!!

[kimeheads]

i realy love this song!

hahaha

[kimeheads]

[simmy1055]

[gxr370speed]

incubus rocks but is it true that brandon boyd is gay ?

[JusticieroDeLaMuerte]

Who cares? Just listen to their music.

[mwellbass]

watch the black heart inertia video........i think you'll find he isnt.

[SkankingJesus]

I would die to be one of those girls in the video...

I still have my incubus wristband i got at the concert on from 3 months ago. lol.

LOVE and LIVE INCUBUS! <3

[anayeli55]

esta cancion me encanta...

!!!

[theamogerardway]

hay k liinda a mii tambiien m encanta sabez i maz o menoz por lo mismo k a ati!!! jiji

[balthsar420]

the entire thing is just brilliant, the lyrics, the video, is interpretation on life. it kinda calms my nerves to know that there are people in this world who see it how i do.

tv....watch your soul say goodbye

[EnjoySM10]

i know every song word for word!!i dont know what i would do with out incubus!!

[TheVal3ria]

no ma amo esta cancion

incubus es lo mejor

aciiaz beto por prestarme

este disco

[chilloutpod]

i think its really fuckin dope how the chorus spells out cocaine

[kiwilimew]

holy shit..

[HeyJennay]

i think this song is a reference to how they don't communicate with the crowd when they perform....they are mute.

i saw it for myself.

[doom876]

no...do you not know the book 1984

[MrThored]

What?!

You picked out one word, and applied it to the most abstract thing you could come up with.

The title, Talk Shows on Mute, is referencing an event where Brandon dubbed a muted talk show. While doing this, it occured to him that it wouldn't be long (if not presently true) that Television would watch us, while we watch it.

This all reminded him of George Orwell's 1984. Thus, the title and chorus.

That being said, Incubus didn't need to talk to the crowd to get them invovled.

[makarrao]

ahahahahah

cara de xerador ele tem!

[tefasi]

perturbadoramente encantador

[Duffiense50]

muy buena cancion

[juanchankane]

wow..... and hey. well they express the cocaine high. as the american high. just lights and cameras. ya dig?

[ARPEGIUSS]

BUENA ROLA!!! VENGA!!!

[steelwindxx]

Brandon Boyd says the inspiration for the song came to him while watching a talk show on an airplane

"I was on an airplane when a talk show began playing on the TVs. I decided to start narrating for the people, which is a really great game if you're ever bored enough. I realized a time will probably come when television will watch us if we're watching it, if that hasn't already happened, figuratively or literally. It sounded like some sort of pseudo-Big Brother nightmare, so I wrote it down."

[iAMnotVIN]

does this song have reference to the book 1984's Big Brother?

[RelapseGuitarer]

It vaguely does imo there definitely are connections betweens the novel and messages in the video

[revolversand]

i tough the inspiration it was about the book called 1984 writed by george orwell

[IgraineEmynArnen]

incubus said that the inspiration for the mv was george orwell's book, "animal farm."

i remember reading that book when i was a sophomore in college. its about animals acting like humans, but in actuality the book is an allegory of how socialism spreads.

[bassistoftheyear]

totalitarialistic communism not socialism big difference

[2Balls2Furious]

Animal farm is about Communism and Corruption, mostly relating to Vladimir Lenin and Joseph Stalin's Reign. wtf does that have to do about this video......

[MeXiLhAoSiNhoO]
