Check out our band cover of Whirring!

[DinosaurusRCool]

The feeling you get when an amazing song like this suddenly gets popular. \:

[jag00237]

I'm ashamed that I found out about these guys when this song hit the radio. I would've loved to have heard about them years ago..

[conorsampson]

....over a million views....what!? I remember supporting them in the O2 academy in Newcastle about 3 years ago.... a million, when did this happen!?

[gutstotake]

the kid from Sixth Sense is a singer in a band?

[Strawberry1139]

amazing :D

[fancybrit93]

This band (and especially this song) is mind-blowing live. They just have so much passion for what they do, and have so much energy. It's like a breathe of fresh air from the bands who go out there and only give it a half-ass effort (both Three Days Grace concerts I've been too for example)

[JunoAtTheMoono]

I love the end part so bad, every time I hear it, can't hold myself pretend i'm playin the battery, and jumping, and making weird moves... Joy Formidable was definetely one of the best bands of 2010-2011

[jdog168]

Cinemax brought me here!

[kevinzarate]

mark hoppus brings me here

[Wakaboo14]

@kevinzarate I love blink-182 to death, I really do...but I think that The Joy Formidable's album The Big Roar was waaaayyy better than Neighborhoods. Not saying I don't like Neighborhoods, just think they could have made it better.

[GothamCrusader01]

I hope my neighbors like this song.

[ravenhawk82]

Anyone else notice that one of this movie's tags is "lolcat"? Made my day.

[BacoboyThe1]

best band ever

[NeonPartyCrasherCats]

Whats up with the cats? Love the song dont understand the cats?

[madhouse221]

@NeonPartyCrasherCats Because this is the internet. Welcome.

[Sarahsthingenzo]

want to see them live!

[mecon92]

They seem to adapt a lot of their sound from the Silversun Pickups. Great song!

[lesserknownjim]

@mecon92 And if by "Silversun Pickups" you mean "The Smashing Pumpkins," then yes!

[nasutar]

@lesserknownjim and My Bloody Valentine!

[cbob7]

Holy canoli, this song and video are over-the-top fantastic.

[TheDinosaurHunt]

The Joy formidable is very good, but I strongly feel that puppets are the future of entertainment. For the good of humanity I have created a puppet series to fill this hunger for excellent content.

[DeadLionPicture]

@TheDinosaurHunt excellent spam jerk. This is the JOY-freaking-FORMIDABLE Go post your junk anywhere else. Everyone knows that claymation is the future of entertainment. anyway.

[TheWinnerKingdom]

@DeadLionPicture @TheDinosaurHunt Hey, lay of the guy! his puppets are ok...

[DeadLionPicture]

@TheWinnerKingdom Ha, ok? more like So Gay.

[TheDinosaurHunt]

@DeadLionPicture Yes, I am VERY SORRY for offending you. I did not mean to spam. I misread the title of this video as 'The Joy of Puppetry' instead of 'The Joy Formidable'.

[TheDinosaurHunt]

@DeadLionPicture And I do think that claymation is very good too. Perhaps I shall switch mediums in light of your excellent insight!

[DeadLionPicture]

@TheDinosaurHunt No don't be so hard on yourself. Your puppets are very good! And it's easy to misread a video title

[TheWinnerKingdom]

@DeadLionPicture Will you guys stop it? I have changed my mind. His puppets are balony

[Trickeymuppet]

Found this on TopMusic.

[julians1mommy]

there gonna be at bonnaroo i cant freakin wait!!!!

[ilikedovehunting]

@julians1mommy When I saw that I was so excited, can't wait

[annarox4]

this is SOOO much better than "Stupid Hoe"

this is MUSIC <3

[soccerallday1210]

That awkward moment when this happens:

You- isn't this song so awesome!!! *starts rockin out*

Friend- uh...not really...it's really bad.....

You- yeah. ok. you need to know real music when you hear it.

*1-3 months later**the song suddenly becomes popular*

Friend- Damn!! Listen to this song it's awesome

You- *listens to same song* uh i showed you this like a few months ago

Friend- no you didn't! i know real music when i hear it trust me

You- *face palm*

[pinxit99]

@soccerallday1210 Trust your own taste in music, which appears to be excellent. Keep hanging with your friend will lead to a backward-sloping forehead from repeated self-inflicted head-slaps. :)

[LaIPulga]

@soccerallday1210 That's not awkward, you dumb fuck.

[soccerallday1210]

@LaIPulga Love you too :)

[Pherokami]

@LaIPulga No reason to call the person a dumb fuck, you know.

[wwwzenwww]

@LaIPulga you're awkward :) and an asshole :)

[DowntownDOLLS]

@soccerallday1210 Happens to me all the time -________-

[umhhj]

@soccerallday1210 ...and now you are as gay as your friend is!

[thRobhimself]

2:14 most epic event in a video ever!

[coleabbott]

awesome video

[AustinScreamz]

Music to die for.... the only thing more beautiful than great music is my Girlfriend.

[reamariewilson]

favorite part at 3:19!!

[corriannelizabeth]

so many cats... i feel like i'm in heaven!

[iTechie17]

I remember when they played this on Starz. It always made my day.

[RyanJSpies]

this video was really awesome.

[ebabba]

Nothing like this song live. See the many versions on Tube. Lolla last year epic. Vegas Cosmo Pool. etc etc etc. Best live band playing.

[slobaalex]

please upload old version of this video ..it`s a waaaaayyyy better !

[brendon834d]

This is no accident.

[skylarSKC]

great song

[hansonbrother1]

i brought myself here, am i doing it right?

[TorcidaCro]

Mark Hoppus sent me here ^^

[matanel]

@thRobhimself

There is, and Its quite good. search: The Joy Formidable 'Whirring' Innerpartysystem remix

[thRobhimself]

@matanel Did you, did you have to spoil it?? :P

[coop4157]

Thank you Mark Hoppus.

[AudioAssassyn]

@DaiGurrenLagann26 no, you're just not running independently amplified 600 Ohm cans.

[JerzeyJon9]

I wish she was my girlfriend

[abstractheory]

Read between the lines people! She's trying to tell us she has a sideways chinese vagina!

[lDyles]

I was listening to Company of Thieves then I saw a Joy Formidable video in the related videos column. Now I can't stop listening to them, they're fantastic!

[ImNotMattV]

Saw this when it had 200,000 views #Hipster lol

[hansonbrother1]

fuck justin bieber

[williamblade69]

57 people, suck.

[AudioAssassyn]

Fawking LOOOVE this band but omg that audio blast at the beginning of the song is ridiculous. Who's idea was that shit? Jesus. Blowing your fans' speakers isn't good showmanship... Release a song/video without that painful, pointless intro.

[DaiGurrenLagann26]

@AudioAssassyn Sounds like a you problem dude. My speakers are fine.

[MissIcia]

For the first time in a long time, I found music I want to listen to. This is so good. I am so glad I found this.

[ervadegato666]

awesome video

[madaikings]

This is why I come to youtube.

[grgzrgzrg]

Where did I see a porno that had this song playing?

[traxxas117]

FACT: The only thing to ever make Chuck Norris cry tears of joy, was The Joy Formidable, and their amazing music.

[iLukeC]

The original video of this wasss soooooooooooo much better

[prath000002]

yeah they been playing this song non stop on alt nation still love it...really cool band hope they keep up the good work. alllthough I havent heard this version with all the rockin out at the end i guess they just play the radio edit or something

[klingstuh]

I always here this sun in Pacsun

[paulc6406]

Amazing at Glastonbury!! 

[ItsMagicITellYou]

halfway through my first time listening to this it became my favorite song.

[nenemutante]

Suenan bien . Me encanta el arrebato a lo smashing pumpkins del final de la canción.

[LWagner22]

i've donwloaded a version of this music but its kinda different from the video

is it normal to the video version of this song be different or have i downloaded the wrong one? and if i did wich version should i download?

[jabbrah]

LOVE THE SOUND!!!



[nomerpuff58]

Cool song, cool video :)



[staceymama129]

Saw they open for Foo Fighters (FAVORITE!) at Garden and they blew me away!



[quomquom13]

@staceymama129 Same here! i've loved the band ever since!

[staceymama129]

They're amazing!

[KawaiiKittyO3O]

This was the song i danced to and someone screamed "i love you" to me!

[3tangle3]

search - The Joy Formidable - Whirring (Wakestock 2011) ... nice live performance

[3tangle3]

see their welsh language cover "chwyrlio"

[3tangle3]

doing the welsh speaking community proud and will hopefully make others learn their old briton tongue :)

[uiruu]

@3tangle3 They are the reason I got a suddenly sparked interest in the language, but I don't think that should be a goal of theirs.

[3tangle3]

@uiruu its not up to us though...and what makes english so intrinsicallysuperior?

[uiruu]

@3tangle3 Nothing, I never said that it was. I don't think it should be their goal to raise awareness of Wales. It's fine if they want to sing in Welsh, as that's not what I mean. It's like an American singing to a largely foreign audience about how great America is. It's not why we, or I at least, listen to music.

[g31184]

thanks again 89.3 the current.

[2short2q]

Good old radical ass kickin' rock. Damn, do we need it now!

[HempothA]

Very Pumpkinesque'



[UrGuRlTjL4LyFe]

saw this video on mtv at like 5 oclock in the morning, i fell in love..

[NigertaKansas]

Dave Grohl called this "the song of 2011." I call it "one of the greatest songs to get laid to."

[kvnftzsmmns]

@NigertaKansas challenge accepted.

[NigertaKansas]

@kvnftzsmmns it's not a challenge, it's the truth. mix TJF with Hum and Godspeed You! Black Emperor on a disc and "I guar-un-tee."

[skwcorp]

Love this song! Love the album version because its longer.

[DAVIDJAMES12691]

This video reminds me of "Float on" by modest mouse.

[suicidalquiff]

I found them by accident... there my favorite band now...

[lazy153]

@suicidalquiff 

[uiruu]

@suicidalquiff Same here. I stumbled on 'em because the girl in the Cradle video thumbnail was kinda cute. I now own every song they've put out and have seen them live four times.

[MikeMauger1011]

@suicidalquiff They're*

[paologentile4]

@ mannequingrin - happens more than one might expect :p

[mannequingrin]

so they go to this old abandoned house filled with cats to find a subterranean cavern with giant cat idols who shoot beams out of their eyes and crystalize the band?

Far out.

[redvrszach2009]

they are going to be a supper band.... just saying now call me on it 10 years from now they will have played in wembley 6 times lol...

[free357mason]

Love the new Smashing Pumpkins song. Back to their roots.  Except Billy Corrigan looks and sounds like a girl.

[benisbuxx]

julian wilson

[markbene]

"The Joy Formidable" are a revelation ! They are the freshest, most creative alt-rock band to come on the scene for many years. They have the entire package: intense & passionate live performances; good looks (Ritzy - you're a knockout !); excellent songwriting skills & musicianship; articulate & classy without being egotistical. Check out comments by Mark Hoppus who anointed "Whirring" as his favorite song of 2011 and high praise from Dave Grohl. I love TJF ! They're a joy to hear & behold !

[jpacemen01]

The part at 3:00 reminds me of Ride in Goin'Blank Again, the album... Perfect video, perfect band.. They made me believe in rock'n'roll again..

[Lipz101]

first joy formidable video with over a million views!

[markbene]

@Lipz101 TJF & the song deserve 10 million more !

[deathontwolegs1961]

They were just on Carson Daly...KICKED ASS!!!

[amathew711]

@deathontwolegs1961 lol i could never rmr the name of this band, but loved this song. thanks carson lmao.

[brianreg]

Saw them at the X christmas party in Pittsburgh and they were great!

[falloutforever88]

KITTY

[set2b1]

love it! does the sound remind anyone else of metric kind of?

[afspecops510]

@set2b1 more than kind of

[HMSTurdle]

@set2b1 and i'm pretty sure christopher mills directed one of metric's videos, too

[youlahe]

@HMSTurdle yep, Christopher Mills directed the video Collect Call for Metric. I like his work/style/world.

[PurpleHoodiesFTW]

copywritten? 

[outsourcedwi]

Check out our cover of this song by going to our channel!

[stowejibber]

I heard it on the radio this morning and i was surprise to actually hear a good song on the radio for once

[josh0158]

@stowejibber same here man

[therealtimdrisk]

@stowejibber aw theyre on the radio? thats a shame. i was being selfish and hoping they stayed out of the mainstream haha

[RighthandAnne]

I am blown away by the song and video.

[PHOTOKLIK]

tell me, WHY would someone dislike this? O_o

[Midnightx77]

@PHOTOKLIK must be inner city folk lol

[livingstillbirth]

Thank God! Just when I quit believing in alternative music because it's saturated with whiny eunuchs droning to simplistic, boring beats this group comes along with a new, exciting sound. Actually, they're slightly retro in style (clearly some late 80's early 90's influences), but re-framed in a fresh take of their own. While not exactly the second coming of Sonic Youth, the beauty of her vocals backed by their energetic guitar riffs is refreshingly cool.

[TheMusiccritic26]

is it just me or do they sound like tegan and sara?

[gnatals]

@TheMusiccritic26 Agree

[Melita500]

increíblemente motivante. Qué buenos the joy formidable y qué buena Ritzy :D

[belcherlot]

I checked this song out after Mark Hoppus requested it on Radio 1 with Zane Lowe. Tune!

[xXPurpleLoliTranceXx]

Wow, this shit is deep.....

[Ancientreapers]

Great song but sorry the original video was much better with none of this mainstream artsy crap

[TheeLRChannel]

I love this song. . Hoo: Yaa. . Yaa zoo. .

[TheGreatBritishGamer]

Did you know the singers favourite singer/songwriter is Bruce Springsteen, I should know, She told me herself!

[baad0501]

The worst thing about this song is that it ends

[wickedonemd]

If that outro doesn't make you wanna learn how to play guitar or drums you're dead inside! That double bass was the sh*t!

[RaeRaeDancer1865]

cats really are taking over the internet

[JiS01]

Great song! Can't wait for more of them

[onefooking]

Amazing song and one of the best abums of the year.!!



[internatyeas]

i wish i could suck my own dick to this song

[MichaelGriggs09]

@Alcherhol Ha, I thought it was just me who thought that!

[countchunkula]

Outro of the fucking year!

[Munger88]

This song won Alternative Song of the Year on iTunes!

[ayamuratakk]

素敵！

[ak8012]

The first time The Joy Formidable slapped a smile on my face I was "chillin" in Afghanistan this summer. Coincidence?

[Anoptimisticworld]

@ak8012 The first time The Joy Formidable slapped a smile on my face I was "chillin" with my Afghani family. Coincedence?

[djJoeykc]

is this a letters to cleo cover band? im confused...

[easyeasy506]

I'm totally addicted to these guys too - their music is absolutely epic! Hope that its not bad to say but they remind me a little bit of The Cranberries.

[panther0567]

I'm so glad I decided to start listening to the local Alternative music station in my city. Otherwise I may not have heard this song and become addicted to the Joy Formidable.

[FrankJL09]

Sick ass song. The end is epic

[PulpFictionFTW88]

@FrankJL09

Don't use the word "epic" dude,its really gay.

[aRchEneMy543]

@Alcherhol its not because harry potter is for faggots
