The Mars Volta - The Widow

[MachineGunMollyII]

Wow, where have I been? Never heard of them til now & it's got over a million views, lol! I better break outta my shell more ;)

[chongo666]

anyone saying that mars volta is better then sabbath is a fucktard

[NizzBomb69]

@chongo666 anyone that doesn't realize that everyone has their own opinions is a "fucktard"

[Osteoporozis]

Moral of the story, TMV makes you cry chocolate

[XxstoopidmonkayxX]

I just noticed that at 3:37 the whole front row of people watching the screen are The Mars Volta themselves.

[XxstoopidmonkayxX]

@XxstoopidmonkayxX And I watch the shit out of this video for a long time.

[lovestheblood]

His voice got me pregnant wtf. 

[SAMANTWEETY]

@lovestheblood WTF??? me too lOl

[Goodvibrations1355]

Make more fucking music!!!!!

[willystylee]

@Goodvibrations1355 stoked for Noctournique?

[bomberman326]

@Goodvibrations1355 New Album Soon!!!! :DDDD

[kiikasi]

This video is so fucking strange lol

[Discodudelol]

It's a shame that this video only has 1.7 million views, considering how long it's been up...

[justinfilipov]

Even on a MV video the top comment has the word eargasm in it, and the comment with a minimalistic truth to it gets less likes by nearly 5/6ths. Not that likes are significant, but in the greater picture it's sad how more people are just mindlessly pondering upon the post cliches of today rather than digging deep into what life is. And not even thinking for themselves. Not trying to accuse anyone of such, that's just my perception at the moment.. and I'm most certainly high.

[7Trisanaty7]

@justinfilipov its just so obvious that youre trying to sound smart i have to face palm.. digging deep into what life is? its a pretty good song and all.. but dude its a song. music IS media. cliches of today are portrayed in the media always. in 100 years only a handful of living people will know what this song is and to them it will just be a review of culture in history. its good to us because its in the time we live. like the word eargasm to a different degree

[justinfilipov]

@7Trisanaty7 Glad you can determine the amount of effort I put into that, and the degree of intelligence I was going for. Yes music is media, however it wasn't always just cliches. Face palm all you want, I hardly even remember typing that. You don't have to be intelligent to dig deep into life. It is a simple system, and acknowledging how beautiful it is doesn't mean someone is trying too hard.

[whaxbomb]

@justinfilipov ur overthinking it, its just music and theyre just comments ,no need to get all intellectual

[bennude10]

@whaxbomb haha true, but that's what herb and some music does. it makes ya think ^_^

[wil311]

The new youtube look is really gay. Also, Mars Volta kicks ass.

[kazmetal89301]

Esta Banda esta rola me la enseño Varela le gusta mucho :D

[MrNagroz]

me gusta



[TubbzTayloR]

@MrNagroz perfect explaination of how i feel when i listen to this song



[baysidesmart]

mmmm......this tastes good

[evebet1]

muy psicodelico  por las nubes ufffffff

[skelevators]

"See I think drugs have done some good things for us." - Bill Hicks

amen Bill.

[IdrinkPepsi]

"Black Sabbath is good and all..." <-- That's a pretty funny joke

[MrSkylerdray]

@IdrinkPepsi Are you saying Black Sabbath isn't good?

[Forbelicious]

@IdrinkPepsi What the fuck? Black Sabbath is a great band. They're no Mars Volta but they're great.

[11InsanityWolfe]

Black Sabbath is good and all... BUT THE MARS VOLTA ARE MASTERS OF REALITY, I tell you what.

[iiproformify]

Cedric is a tad better then Omar. Because..of his emotion.

[JoelavaJoe]

@iiproformify care to explain?

[TheSingedWaffle]

This song... is freaking amazing.

[u2m2i5n7abunnies]

i defiantly prefer when Cedric actually sings within his range.

[coco7010]

@nicoletatraveljunkie Cedric is Chicano. ;-)

[1N71]

Mexicans a güevo!

[gutogonzalez]

Band playing in the middle of Avenida Paulista (São Paulo-Brazil) as the signal does not open. very cool.

watch? v = ZbfBM4_nprY

[MrBighate]

the sad thing is, they might soon be splitting :(

[yockinnottou]

@MrBighate why?

[MrBighate]

@yockinnottou Apperently is because of arguing within the band, what the helle they are arguing about i wouldnt know, i heard it from the vocalist in the band Rumble in Rhodos when i was in an interview. he said the t they have insanely good energy but thayt they argue a lot too, Rumble in Rhodos is on the other hand a band that everyone who loves The Mars Volta should definetly listen too it his voice is INSANE :)

[hastyvictories]

I keep seeing comments about 'eargasmic' songs having sex with your ears, but somehow, this is a song I actually found genuinely sensual, it pieces itself together in a surreal way. I can almost feel it.

[fezchavez]

85 people have fasting black lungs.

[OfivetwoekVeeDee]

The only chicanos I do respect..Im mexican and im quite protective about our nationality

[guysapire]

Like Led Zeppelin, just weirder.

[SEBASREDS1]

MAFNIFICO

[captainclayman]

goosebumps every time

[VoiceofCthulhu]

I was considering singing this with my family at a karaoke place, but I was shy, so I didn't. ._.

[constantinehelmet]

@VoiceofCthulhu Cool story bro.

[TheEdyhernandez]

CHECK OUT "HOLY BEAST' ON FACEBOOK IF YOU LIKE TMV YOULL LIKE THEM!!!

[iammatthewalbert]

84 people sleep alone

[VikkiFixx]

What the hell is the video all about? Eating mud? And some snakes and women with huge bewbs? No disrespect, but I thought they had stopped taking drugs?

[vulgarcowpower]

@VikkiFixx you dont have to be on drugs to come up with something interesting that gets others minds ticking and thinking about whatever it is thats touching their senses. jus cuz you have to think alittle doesnt have to mean someone had to be on drugs to come up something so complicated that makes you ask yourself questions. if you dont use your brain it dies.

[TheJayTrain]

@vulgarcowpower no, but drugs sure do give you a way more wide open mind set then most people.

[MrWeglwegl]

84 people slept alone.

[prinzonyx1]

saw them @ The Pageant in St. Louis 2 or 3 years ago. They've made a lifelong fan of this old lady rocker.

[the3vilsix]

I'm in this video. I could see the obvious conflicts within the band at the time. When it was time for our part my friend was in the bathroom. Fortunately for him there was a problem with the camera so we had to stop. My friend made it back in but when he sat himself down Omar got on him. Jon stepped in & told him to chill the F out. So Omar asked my friend to sit somewhere else, over to the right. My friend was blacked out so you can't see him lol. My/our part in the video @3:34

[Fabletheband]

Hey if you love The Mars Volta check us out if you have a moment :) you can follow our youtube page to our facebook or soundcloud for more songs. Enjoy x

[BobDoleNSatanRmyniGz]

I'm took a Hillary Clinton.  Now I'm wiping my Obama.

[kotkomqvka]

Why is Miley fucking Cyrus in the suggestions?

[kdfaller]

Sounds like a cross between Jack White and Kingdom Come

[DarkPyroMaster]

this is a disturbing music video.......

[dizzylizzifer]

"Freeze without an answer free from all the shame" his voice... God his voice. hauntingly taunting. eerie and spectacular. Cedric your classic dont ever change.

[Gliebhard]

#themarsvolta2011

post on twitter. its a Volta revolution

[omfgwtfsmd]

Amazing, just amazing.

[BobDoleNSatanRmyniGz]

every song should sound exactly like this. then i won't need to be so judgmental

[alfiesmum91]

Fucking love it. His voice is pure eargasm!!!!!!

[Xm1tchelX]

@alfiesmum91 To bad he can't pull it off live. At all.

]

[TheBiddleMan]

Modern music has some life in it, yet.

[ZIDBULA]

i did that odd movement the one lady was doing in the beginning on the bench.... people were secretly staring hahahhahaha

[SignoraPsycheZenobia]

I cried through out the entire video . Cedric's voice and the surrealistic images catch me every time. I'd give anything to have a fraction of that talent.

[OfivetwoekVeeDee]

@SignoraPsycheZenobia If youre single for 19 years and your teenage live sucks...youll have dreams and daydreams similar to this...no drugs at all...just sweet inspiring sorrow...aa yep....you should have an unrequited love to inspire the angst inside..no joking...thats at least my style and a tip

[y7u7r7i]

LOVE IT!!

[Thunderhour]

i want to be high

[mrice102888]

@Thunderhour I know exactly how to fix that problem. Come smoke some of my dro with me.

[georgedaman1221]

I thought that this was Cygnus... Vismund Cygnus, not the Widow

[TheChexer1231]

[OfivetwoekVeeDee]

@BobDoleNSatanRmyniGz Hope they were mexicans at full

[juangodfrid]

there are two kind of persons, the ones who love mars volta, and the ones who can't understand it

[Kati3K]

I forgot how much I love this song!

[koernertyler]

Anyone who has ever been addicted to opiates particularly heroin know exactly what this song is talking about.

[bellcoso19]

@koernertyler I know what this song is about and I naver use any drugs in my fucking Life, you only have to listen well and you'll what it say

[matiasespina91]

@bellcoso19 but theres a great difference between understand something and experiencing it first-hand, he experienced it, you and I don't

[bellcoso19]

@matiasespina91 exactly, and believe me i would not try it, and i love this music a lot

[matiasespina91]

@bellcoso19 believe me I wouldn't try, too

[headthemeatgrinder]

If I heard this on the radio without knowing who it was, I'd presumed it was Led Zeppelin. It sounds so similar

[xdeathtothedoper]

My speakers needs more volume!

[thanatoutheosJr]

Does anybody understand the lyrics? Isn't Frances the Mute a concept album about a man who was adopted and travels to find their actual parents? The lyrics to this song are absurd and obscure...

[TheNirvanagurl]

I didnt realize I'd heard this song before. I didnt know it was by mars volta

[nicholassklavenitis]

what is this song about some one please help me

[BigBadJango]

such a weird music video

[RuleTheRadio23]

They have the coolest videos

[mexsax1597]

WTF! i'm listening to mars volta and youtube suggests lady gaga?! screw that!

[thanx4life]

@mexsax1597 yeah... the featured video that showed up in my suggestions was Miley Cirus. It's like YouTUbe diliberately wants us to listen to crap.

[Nae0004]

@mexsax1597

Now it suggests Miley Cyrus... is the world going crazy??

[silvermystic2001]

@Nae0004 Do you have to ask lmao :P

[ivanmeza]

@mexsax1597 this shit is suggesting me a Miley Cyrus song..... WTF?

[mexsax1597]

@ivanmeza idk how youtube found anything related mars volta and miley cyrus

[bellion028]

@mexsax1597 they suggest me the miley fucking cyrus

[mexsax1597]

@bellion028 i suppose youtube just has a very bad sense of humor

[skullstls]

this song and cygnus ..vismund cygnus , l'via l'viaquez , miranda and cassandra gemini has a history behind ..

[shayshaygotsit]

Cedric's voice just amazes me.

[ShadowCrowX]

ah good ol' Mars Volta. I would've continued buying their albums if they didn't fill them with 20 minutes of sfx and just got straight to the music

[laurensarah666]

I totally do not need drugs for this and it hits me like crazy. Am I the only one who feels this as if the world ends on a beautiful way or something?

[renatobh26]

nothing new

[manwhore60]

 this song is just.... incredible.

[slisys]

best song ever!

[superchief86]

I don't know what that black shit is. But something tells me people shouldn't be eating it.

[zerfsun]

@superchief86 it's liquid syphilis

[ConfusedSponge]

The only way to really enjoy and understand anything Mars Volta is when you are stoned

[yorb1234]

@ConfusedSponge if you believe this you shouldnt be hearing TMV

[ConfusedSponge]

@yorb1234 Sorry, if you're offended. I think Mars Volta is okay. But a lot of people who I met said this band is so magical and haunting. I said, really? Because I think the band is okay but I haven't experience the magical thing and they said that I should do coke or MJ or something because that's what they did when they listen to Mars Volta!

[lolhatethat]

Kinda sounds like My Chemical Romance :(

[HookedOnMneumonics]

@lolhatethat Get your ears checked.

[dullahan1847]

@lolhatethat

Not to burst your bubble but it woulda been the other way around if it were true

[greenstar606]

@lolhatethat Nope!

[izzyidl1]

@lolhatethat

[Davidarmo42415]

@nocturnalpulse6 from to 1:05 it does. the way he shakes his vocals reminds me of them

[BFtheWave]

@Davidarmo42415 That's called a vibrato a lot of singers do it.

[Stonehenge442]

[Mattmoo36]

listening to TMV lately has taught me one thing lately: I wish I had a vocal range like Bixler-Zavala.

[AntonioVassZanBomber]

Creeps me out in a cool way

[TheAnonymousWitness]

Somebody made me a copy of this album over four years ago; and I sh*t you not- I have listened to it almost every motherf*ucking day in my car.

@TheAnonymousWitness that's such an amazing album. i listened to it for 3-5 times a day for a year and now, four years later i still get t he chills when i listen to it
