[WELLROSE1]

MMMMMMEEElTeEeDdD

[bellecar161]

first time hearing this band... and.... I LOVE IT XD sometimes finding stuff by mistake is ah-mazing! ^^

[comatosedelusion666]

i love the ups truck that drives by at the begining :)

[DulzyeaH]

para que quiero droga!!

[surferbuddha]

IV is fun

[BitternessBarbie94]

This is the best fucking techno song ever.

[BADTR1P]

techno? the faint isnt techno. you fucking idiot. go die.

[thinkyertirednow]

@BADTR1P you're right... the faint isn't techno..... but no need to be harsh about it....

saddle creek forever<333

[enlightenedaquarius]

@BADTR1P I was trying to come up with what genre you could possibly put such an awesomely unique band. I came up with industrial-dance-rock-sex-punk­-synth

[BADTR1P]

@enlightenedaquarius That works <3

[TheGruberHof]

Such a good song. I wish it was more popular.

[SirBowsington]

that was an awesome video.

[mcshaner1992]

i think this video is quite trippy myself i give it a thumbs up and the song makes it even better

[ScrapBrainZone]

I love this song, but I can't help but hear the words "by mountain, by mountain, by mountain" at the end.

[LubondIII]

lol i have the same problem. just try real hard to think "m-melted m-melted m-melted"

[bravery369]

santa barbara!!!! place to be foo

[jwbulmer]

The song's great. I've always liked the faint, however don't like the over use of horrible film filters like inverted colours. The occasional shot is fine, but an entire 3:50 video. No thanks.

[mikebrushedred]

@jwbulmer For some reason, I'd think you just wouldn't watch it. Ya know? Like, just listen to it. Who cares what the video is? Its music, not a movie trailer.

[shitpickel66]

this sucks

[rumplins]

your interpretation of this song is a boring home movie with the colors inverted ? i like the song myself...

[whynotplaywii]

Is it just me or did rihanna's disturbia sound sort of familiar to the chorus.

[xXIma27inIXx]

u listen to rihanna AND the faint? strange^^

[whynotplaywii]

No, haha, i heard it on my sisters iPod while it was on shuffle, and i was like, this sounds like your retro career melted haha.

[paul111]

why is that strange?

[iiiggglll]

oh my. i agree! i didn't notice that! someone should remix the two together just for kicks. :3

[h0rrorbusiness]

really cool. favourited. :)

i adore the faint.

[WHATISWRONGWITHYOUPE]

i found a website in which people were trying to understand this song. one said the mannequin was killing everyone trying to teach them that their age has come to an end. other people said that people were killing the mannequin feeling offended what he said.....and threw him out as he reassembled and it happened again.

[josephobia]

Is this in santa barbara??

[7Dieter7]

hahaha fuckin sweet vid... some parts are a little meh but very fitting!

[MelissaZombie90]

awesome video :D

[ZeDthe0fficial]

faint are amazing

they compose genius music

such a pitty that noone knows about them in my country.... ;(

[ReasonOfAbortion]

But, yes song is amazing in itself.

[ReasonOfAbortion]

I would recommend some quick flashes of scenes where some of the activity seems to be redundant. You definitely have a positive base for something good.

[buttcircleface]

negative

[underatarget]

I fricken love this songgg!

[rexona2412]

awesome video+song

[dyingelephant]

SANTA BARBARA!

[imt3hm4n]

Pro intro

[salivapoo29]

This definately has its moments! Alot of the street scenes work really well and the dancing after the guy takes the first shot is awesome. also, the very last scene with the bikes is perfect.

Buutttt...I don't really like your choice to put in so many people just talking regularily. It just doesn't work at all. Those parts almost look like you just pulled out a videocamera with no plan and taped these random people.

Like I said though, this video definately had its good moments. Congrats.

[BloodyFlux]

is this official vid??

[SubieRon]

Of course not, it was by StevenMorrisEP.

[stevenmorrisEP]

of course! =)

[ScorpionHUT]

I LIEK POOP IT FEEL GOOD YAH

[KingzCrownX]

lmao wtf?

[xxMICxASSASSINxx]

who would thumbs down this?

[superstarbeebotch]

GREAT song 5 starzzzzz

[josephhockeydude]

well done

[shibbyguy420]

i listened to this stoned all the time

[JamesTeaWatson]

great job my friend.

[webbhen]

cut copy used this song preety well in their fabriclive mix...

[stevenmorrisEP]

Freshman year (3 years damn this is so old! lol) I lived in the FT dorms at UC Santa Barbara

[seanbeecher245]

@stevenmorrisEP that was two years ago

time is weird like that

it passes fast

[sexpuss]

this song is just so awesome!!!!

[doctorjules187]

Even in negative, FT and IV are so easily recognizable

[stevenmorrisEP]

I made this video freshman year of college and now I'm going to be a senior. It's weird watching this again. But thank you everyone who has given me nice and even not nice (constructive) compliments.

[EverydayAdventures]

so you made this? really awesome. the reverse contrast looks amazing! the only down side is that its not that long and u just loop it, but the tight effex make up for it! like 5 stars yo

[murraythedemonhead]

Great song and the video really suits it even though nothing really happens. I also agree with the comment below. That negative sun reflection looks awesome

[boarder4life225]

at like 51 seconds when theres a reflection of the sun on the car it looks black cause of the negative, that looks sick

[OVINESQUIK]

Friend your video was inspiring thanks.

[pixielover5]

sweet.

[jjensen15]

im so dizzy. cool video though =)

[standardyarn]

that comment was.. sucktastic

[sucktastic]

It's alright, but it just looks like a video of random junk shot in negative. Meh.

[pinecod]

one of the best songs ever - and a wicked video to go with it, nice one mate ;)

[gishu]

i cant stop watching and listening to this song 5 stars dude

[Kittieized]

killer

[xxyayo888]

probably one of the best videos on youtube

sweet vid man

i have this on my ipodd too

[Masqueradexxx]

ahh I love this song!

one of my teachers put it on a CD for me :D

[boldaslovenotwar]

very nice!

[xFilthyxJesusx]

I had no idea this wasn't a real video made by them. AMAZING JOB!

[freakykidfreakinkids]

kewl vid (y)

[AMolanea2741]

I love the faint, and i love the vid. thumbs up. But I agree with a few others that quicker cuts are needed in ur future vids

[shnizzler93]

you are totally correct...the vid would be better with shorter clips.

[universallance]

Great ideas, but the execution and editing is a bit lacking. The bouncing off the walls was cool, as well as the pouring alcohol cuts. ....Get rid of the girl in the window. once again, editing, and acting. must match the music. it takes patience. that's exactly the difference between a novice and a professional. oh ya, and what anexperimat said.

[anexperimat]

that's a lot of fucking bicycles!

[DaveyJones1111]

haha, probably the best part. very surreal looking.

[woody52117]

if you are looking into music video directly/editing, make cuts more often. especially on a song like this, you want quick cuts that are on beat with the music. You had some really cool shots, but it kinda drags with all the long cuts. good luck

[scottyphx]

nice, speaking as an experienced editor, looks cool! not my favorite faint song,though.

[superfreak93086]

i actually think most of this video you made looks like it could be a real vid by them. i think its rad!

[thepatterofrain]

Good song, terrible the production cost of this video must have been and home camera. and the time to press some special effect button.

[skapula]

Fuckin Love this song =D

[frozenfoto]

this song is the best from the faint this video is way off!

[f0n3luv4]

awesome vid and song!

[coralmaniac]

fuck all the "being on drugs" shit, this vid is so awsome!!!!

[triggy1]

love this!!!!!!!!!

[jwbud89]

is this filmed at UCSB??? GO GAUCHOS!!!

[llelo55]

lay off the drugs? are you fuckin kidding me, its electronic shit, it was made ON drugs!

[BorisMacsimovich]

drugs are bad, the faint are good. Don't mix 'em.

[perfectlyfake]

Stick to just listening to the music. Or lay off the drugs.

[llelo55]

nice!!! great song

[passiveending4]

Thats a nice vid, this is an awesome song too.

[CupidOXOHero]

lol i dance liek that when am drunk apperently my mates just said am not too sure

[XtopherMonge]

Pretty schweet, I must say.

[PierreDohairetis]

It's so fun !! I love that song and your interpretation is cool !

[ducksoup0]

wow, that was totally horrible it was especially crappy when you inverted the colors

[magus39]

Awesome video. Nice editing

[jonathan223]

lovin' it

[love2rockout]

it's sweet, 2:40 into the video it gets really rad. it would be interesting to see more motion ,like a crowded room or sub station. The dancing in the hall cant be topped though.

[beatnikbroad]

right on (;
