This song is clearly about cocaine. If you have ever done cocaine, it's obvious. If you haven't, nobody cares about your opinion. "You can say what you want and don't mean it"
@desvr6 if you're going to use a sentence in this song to make ppl believe its about cocaine you might as well use "powdering dust on your finger"... lol
Hey everyone. Id really love to hear your thoughts on my new song called Polka for my solo project Glacierbrain. Modest Mouse are a massive influence on my music writing as are bands like Tv on the Radio, Radiohead, Wolf Parade and Explosions in the Sky.
If you wanna support some unsigned music please swing by and let me know what you think :D
Does anyone else agree that those two ladies(or whatever they are) look like they have giant vaginas on their backs. Not that I was paying close attention
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ If you break these moth wing feelings Powdering dust on your fingers We know we're not praying we're kneeling Hard enough just to say you believe them Well how the heck did you think you could beat them At the same time that you're trying to be them Hard enough just to say you don't need it when they Took it up while you were still eating Well satellite, satellite skin ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ஜ۩۞۩ஜ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Hey everyone, I just uploaded a new song for my solo project Glacierbrain. Its called The Nations Enemy. Modest Mouse are a big influence on my music so if you wanna support some unsigned music I'd really appreciate it if you'd give it a listen, just visit my profile.
The birdhouse fed his whole nation of birdhouses by sacrificing two of his little eggs. Since the only way to release the food was through the Alien's eyes, the alien is is feeding his pets such as we do to cats and dogs. A really cool video and i thank the band for sharing this magnificent piece of art!
WELL HAPPY FUCKING CONGRATULATIONS :D This is my favourite part. Love this song, they played it on the radio the other day, was so happy dancing round my kitchen...
@Happymealify Haha sorry I live in New Zealand :/ The station is 95 Bfm though... You can maybe get an international stream.... They play a lot of Modest Mouse and music like it. Really alternative. They were playing lazy songs one Sunday afternoon and someone called up requesting Lazy Song by Bruno Mars and the DJ told him to fuck off :P Good day.
Ok, I'm good with stars in space looking like their hung from a giant piece of cloth that moves when the trees do, the ground breathing, and knowing that the Hamburglar is an evil genius that has to lay low for years at a time because McDonalds keeps blowing his cover, but this is weird.
This Modest Mouse video is based off/a tribute to the first scene of the 1990 Japanese film called 'Dreams' (full title: Akira Kurosawa's Dreams). It is based heavily from the first dream/scene of the film; 'Sunshine Through the Rain'. I definitely would encourage a viewing of the film, if nothing else you could at least wikipedia the film and read the cursory summary of the first dream/scene.
@paulrplath I have just seen the film due to your comment. I never post random replies on videos but i feel compelled to thank you for mentioning the title of a truly magnificent piece of cinematic artistry. It is compelling on so many levels and I'm certain those who have some knowledge of Japanese traditions or legends will appreciate the film all the more.
@paulrplath thanks man. you probably just cleared up what seems just like really random things into something somewhat more clear and possible for us to njoy as more than just strange things in a video.
what ive gotten out of this video: living dog house, priest and nuns with pussies on their backs, and an alien who likes fisting priest and nuns and shooting birds out of his eyes...
wait a sec, 2x4=8 divided by the COS of 2.1476892 - 56.0993 = 8788394.9383, okay so times that by 76% of 8/46 of an eighth... ohh I get it now FLAWLESS!
NEVER depend on someone to protect you. IF sex is a MUST then PROTECTION is a definite PLUS. I know that harmones can kick into OVER DRIVE but, is implusiveness REALLY worth it? You can't look at someone and know if they're clean or not. To INSERT the responsibility is on YOU,to accept the INSERTION is still your responsibility.
STILL there is NEVER any rush.YOU cannot FINISH sex BUT sex can definitely FINISH YOU!
wtf did i just watch i mean damn vigina backs, egg eyes, bird houses that will eat birds wtf modest mouse trying to give someone thats high an ultimate tripp out
ATTENTION: Wouldn't it be GREAT if there was a CONTAGIOUS virus INVENTED that would SPREAD LOVE,changing the HEARTS & MINDS of everyone it came in contact with?? like O..M..Goddddd..I'd be SOOOOOOO COOLLLL.Lets revive the cycle of LOVE! :) A love that does not love only the PHYSICAL.
I wonder if anybody else recognized that this looked like the foxes wedding in the movie Dreams by Akira Kurosawa (1990) imdb it for yourself it's the first story in that movie. The Shinto style wedding is done in the woods and choreographed pretty much the same (of course no weird alien or vagina backs) but the kimono's are a dead give away too.... Maybe I'm just imagining things... but if anyone else has seen the movie they'd recognize it.
