  • those strings sound so lush in this <3

  • I wish I too made sweet sweet music, and sweet sweet love to Zoey Deschanel. I envy you Ben.

  • Comment removed

  • Honestly, I'm sure their next CD is going to be just as amazing as the ones BEFORE Zooey Deschanel came along... so... in a way... it's all for the greater good.

  • 3:19 - 3:42 :')

  • @reigeki9 - Well now that they broke up, how do you feel?

  • @smackyajack It was nice while it lasted. :)

  • who would dislke this

  • I had an ex named Cath. I miss her. LOL.

  • Thumbs up for their divorce. She's available!

  • @justleeinc um they are married moron.

  • did they hire a five year old camera man?

  • Dameila sent me

  • have you seen this guy wife, luckyy bastard!!!he's got the band and he's got the wife and he's got money what else could you ask for???

  • Walla looks fucking cute here.

  • 0:58 seconds. when he says small. perfect.

  • just fucking beautiful

  • FUCKING LOUD ASS BULLSHIT YOUTUBE ADS TWICE THE FUCKING VOLUME OF THE GOD DAMN SONG.......!!!!!!!!!!!

  • dammit they caught me on tape:(

  • I swear this song played in my ipod during royal wedding... I was like wow wtf!!

  • I think those are the original Hipster Glasses. This is beautiful :)

  • @AustinLondonMustFeed I would like to believe so, but unfortunately I don't think so. I think Rivers Cuomo from Weezer originated the Hipster Glasses. If you want to go back even farther I think Buddy Holly did. Nevertheless, I love this song and this acoustic version of think song is nothing short of amazing.

  • God, Ben Gibbard is a gift to humanity. A lyrical genius..

  • I think the intro sounds especially good here on the acoustic, just sounds better.

  • I love MediaOutletOnline for getting fffreeee m..uzzic such as this. You should try and search it on Bing.

  • this is so beautiful.

  • Simply amazing. This song really changes people's lifes.

    BTW:

    /watch?v=OzV4v8l8L-g <-- If you have some time for my song about thin line between life and death. Waiting for your feedback. Peace! 

  • sorta reminds me of a young Neil Young.  THAT is a compliment.

  • dude's a god

  • Raw and unpolished.... Great stuff

  • 31 people disrespect mutton chops

  • ben gibbard is a genius.

  • seriously, how can people dislike this? they had to have been drunk and couldn't make out the right button

  • <3 <3 <3 <3 <3!

  • Mutton Chops won the heart of Zoey Deschanel.

  • @MrBRREEETTTT I'm from the future and it turn's out you were wrong :o

  • @MrBRREEETTTT not for long : /

  • hmm anyone know what he plays when he goes to the part on the 8th and 7th fret (relative to capo) for that little lick

  • @arefx It's a substitute for a C chord. He holds the E and hammers up on the A.

  • Videos like this make me wish Death Cab would do an acoustic-only album. Let the guitars and lyrics speak for themselves without all the production and effects.

  • I fuckin love this band and I fuckin love this song!

  • Dammit Ben you make it look so damn easy I tried learning this and the hammer ons still give me trouble

  • Okay, I repeated this song over 5 times and it probably won't end there. Death Cab for Cutie is amazing

  • Epic sideburns there fella

  • Gibbard is amazing! I love Zooey, but am so jealous of her! I'd have him sing to me every day!!

  • Pan the camera down :(

  • DCFC are fucking legends, this sounds as good if not better acoustic. =)

  • Gibbard is a fucking legend. This song sounds as good if not better acoustic.

  • i finally found out why there is 1550 LIKES!!! its because i watched this 1550 times in a row!! one love dcfc!

  • I think this is my favourite DCFC song... Maybe.

  • these guys are kickass

  • I like this song better acoustic :D

    and OMG the Mutton Chops are seriously making me melt <3

  • General Burnside

  • I dont like most of death cab's stuff, but this song deserves the most amount of recognition possible, this song is absolutely beautiful. Its refreshing to hear real music, and not these dick tugging pop artists.

  • @TheSeaverHelms

    Not quite a billion - but I could not believe it was over 300 million -

    -It is a white boy raping - amazing - he got a grammy also - but I agree that this song is much better -

  • Amazing!!!

  • The world doesnt appreciate good music or recognize it anymore, these are actually musicians, pop music is all commercialized and takes no effort to put together that is why those artists are the like the styrofoam plates we throw out after using them while this is more like fine china we cherish and will have for a long time to come.

  • I really wish they had a version like this on iTunes!

  • @xman798 Google "Youtube Downloader", download it into MP3 format and then add the song to your iTunes library. You're welcome :)

  • I love their acoustic stuff! I found a pretty good cover of their song Grapevine Fires by a channel called Joandhuhu that definitely does justice to the original, which I find is tough with a band of this calibre! Anyways, just putting it out there for other death cabbin cuties!

  • This fucking guy is amazing

  • @Hannover1980 and yet married to zooey deschanel. love ben gibbard

  • Ben Gibbard, one of the most genius writers and musicians left.

  • Needs the bass badly.

  • @ryta1203 you seem a bit spoiled on the bass there. lol

  • Chris Walla!!

  • Rusty spork, chainsaw, it doesnt matter :D

    What matters is that this is true artistry, and this band has not the credit it genuinely deserves. But yes, any form of painful castration would be a satisfactory payback for the 1,417 people that DO have good taste in music.

  • these guys might be building a legend

  • 30 people deserve to have their testicles removed surgically!

  • @AZtwoNE surgically?you meann with a rusty spork right?

  • Gee, a musician thats more concerned about writing great original songs than what he looks like and people give him crap about it. This is why the state of music is the way it is, why pop turds like Justin Bieber are known by everyone and bands like this struggle.....I suggest to all that are concerned with appearances of people that SING for a living go ahead and put down the hairspray and blowdryer and go buy your front row tickets to the next boy band/pop tart concert coming your way......

  • @xman51000 Uhh...since when is Death Cab For Cutie struggling? I agree with the sentiment, but Death Cab is pretty highly recognized these days.

  • @xman51000 FUCKING AMEN

  • this is byootiful. i wish i could make those sounds with my guitar lol. ugh. practice practice practice...

  • I WANT BADASS CHOPS LIKE HIM

  • Comment removed

  • 1:41, what's going on with the chording?

  • he's ugly as fuck but sings beautifully

  • @MrSnapply I was always thought "Fuck" was awesome....

  • @MrSnapply Beauty shines in many ways (:

  • to those who dislike the video, Screw U ALL!!

  • Dude, check THOSE sideburns out! That's so freaking badass! i'll leave them on now xD

  • absolutly love them

  • He looks like Tony Clifton.

  • 29 people have no taste in music

  • I watch a lot of videos, but without even realizing it I find myself here again listening to this song at least once every few days. Makes me smile.

  • What a beautiful song. The way Ben crafts the lyrics is simply amazing, the ideas are novel and interesting, and his phrasing is quite brilliant. The instrumental bit just flows wonderfly, and as a whole, the songwriting is excellent. There's nothing not to like about this song.

  • honestly, out of all the artists and bands i have heard live, he is the only one that i think is able to sound like their albums. ftw. how he writes is astounding, never have i heard better. 

  • @Shenanigansismyname That may be because a lot of bands believe a recording and a live show or performance should be very different form one another.

  • Absolutely astonishing. I've just fallen in love all over again. <3

  • i want mutton chops like those, it would improve my pulling power threefold.

  • sounds great live

  • Ben Gibbard writes truth. It's beautiful. 

  • sounds even better acoustic! love this song.

  • @livelaughsing16 HIP COMMENT BRO!

  • I like this song way better acoustic

  • I like his chops. They're pretty fierce.

  • @CychoIce yes they r totally

  • It was really cool to see how this was done with bot guitars, Ive been doing it all wrong so thanks! And check out my channel

  • Excellent acoustic song. Not just acoustic version. As an acoustic song, it's great. Love his voice.

  • this is actually better than the studio version

  • L 3 ve love L <3 VE this!!!!! Ahhhhmazing! :3

  • Man I love this version!

  • wow, magical!♥

  • he looks like a new age neil young

  • he looks like the dad from honey i shrunk the kids lol

  • @mikeroxcfc rick moranis

  • I dont get why this band isn't more famous than they are. They have such nice and ACTUAL music, they should be playing big venues!

  • Why did the 28 nimrods who thumbed this down even watch this? WTF??

    Also, Ben Gibbard is the fucking man. If Zooey Deschanel marries you, you know you're doing something pretty awesomly.

  • Why did the 28 nimrods who thumbed this down even watch this? WTF??

  • Death Cab is pure music ... that's all !

  • @cattleforslaughter besides you, you mean.

  • this song is my favorite song death cab is awesome

  • mutton chops ftw!

  • Looks a little like John Lennon

  • @LTDdr0pde4d I agree, but I was thinking he looks a bit more like his son, Sean, honestly.

  • Oh man, those sideburns are glorious.

  • Ben Gibbard vis a fucking Boss! I love how he can actually sing, none of this auto tuning shit. The man actually has talent!

    ROCK IT GIBBARD!!!

  • <3 i love death cab. i dont know where id be without them ;'D

  • He's good, but Neil Young he aint! Still...a very good acoustic version of "Cath." Thanks for posting! Ive added it to my favourites.

  • These dudes are pretty cool, nice tunes too.

  • seriously, ben gibbards sends shiver down my spiine. I LOVE YOU BEN!!

  • love love love it :D

  • I'm not a huge fan, but I gotta admit this is an excellent acoustic performance.

  • epic

    no heroic

    no legendary

    just OMFG good

  • Really he isnt that great of a singer. He's a very capable writer

  • @TheLes4 lol, kinda like Jimmy Buffet, well Jimmy Buffet doesnt even sing, he talks with rythm, but is an absolutly amazing story teller (i greatly enjoy his music)

  • DCFC is so awesome.

  • i have their 2006 tour shirt!!!!!!!!! love the cab.

  • DCFC is always th best when it comes to live and acoustic performances <3

  • i love how he says relax

    a major WOW to dcfc

  • @Silvester0009 musicians pronounce things differantly in order to rhyme the song but agreed it sounds good

  • 28 people missed the like button. MAJOR OOPS.

  • Wow.

    Ben sounds SO young.

    It's insane.

  • Comment removed

  • @zaidx24 U dont make any sense.. are you foreign?

  • Get a haircut Gibbard, but leave the chops.

    

  • sexy mutton chops.

  • Siiiick

  • epic mutton chops

  • ahh hes such a great songwriter.

  • Fuck these rollover song things. Fuck them to the deepest bowels of hell.

  • I always see them when they perform on late night shows. They always sound good. Proof that talent still exists without auto tune and all the other stuff that artists use today to alter their crappy music.

  • his capo matches his shirt
