[MewTheniRun]

[m0thland]

Ok, for fucks sake, I get the picture. You don't like my teeth (yes it is the girl with the "shit" teeth in the vid). I happen to like my teeth! So there are no nhs dentists on the isle of wight. It's not my fault!!! At least I HAVE teeth!

[JffCake]

[mattysen]

This song is exactly who I am. Since I am a realist, a romantic and..of course most of all... an indecisive piece of shit!

[joshuafifteen]

Me Too. (Y) AHa.

[BethLovesDanielJones]

okay that guy is sexy,

x

[cgmproductions]

oh God what an ending xD

[write2escape]

Did she get knocked out by a plant while in the bathtub? :)

[Jellyfish124]

Yeah, she did (: She wanted the towel, but when she pulled it down, she got hit in the face..

[Matiila]

Really good song :)

[PortugalTheAccount]

I just discovered these guys...

they are amazing.

[ahsiekkeisha]

why did she get dressed...then have a bath?

[BarrattG]

"im a romantic.. im an indecisive" indecisive so has bath after dressing

[thisaintjay]

I was thinking the same thing, lol

[vic1vicious]

this used to be on nme so much

i miss it :/

[write2escape]

I love this video :)

[SpacePirate95]

[Nikopse6]

How can people discuss the war between america and iraq during a cribs video :S its crazy!

[123desh321]

i know wtf lol

[brianismynamo55]

I have no Idea

[fletcheyboi]

this video is so cool x

[kimluvsmusik]

lol 2:46 xxx

[damienwattau]

well the song is fucken great but the video clip is a let down, the idea was great but the DP needed a kick in the arse to change something, too long static shots with a whole bunch of nuthing happening.....mix it up a bit shit maybe a moving shot?

[xxj511xx]

This song is amazing, as is the video, but it must be said that the censorship drives me crazy!

[Zakumisama]

does the girl die?

[philcs]

NO SHE'S WELL AND ALIVE I BELIEVE

[Zakumisama]

Thanks n.n

[jestebee]

gutted!

[astroman123]

I know him he went to my school, he's a POSER!!!!

[itsglenrutter]

you know him? whats he called?

[orlsoir]

awsome song... just realised: i think the guy in the video is wearing a Leeds (or Reading) Fest 07 wrist band =]

And by the way, I live with 6 Americans and we all get on okay. I'm learning things about their culture, and they're learning stuff about ours (British culture) the more time we spend together. You can't argue over which side is better: to do that fairly you would have had to experience both sides equally. They're different cultures is all.

[alfredbites]

lol stop arguing we all like the cribs so shut up

[gdawgisgansta]

the guy in the video LOVES himself doesn't he? wanker lol

[wcskiller68]

i remember this only had 2k views lol..

[wakajuku]

aw thats so sad poor kid

[Alxx2]

thats such a sad ending lol

[ikillretards]

hahaha taking a bath after putting on make-up lol

[HsojNosnibor]

Rich coming from someone coming from a country with no culture what so ever.

[MarlboroShinobi]

yikes, no culture? the more you talk the more points you prove on how ignorant you are. You could say the same about me..all I said was that the british dont have a great dental plan..which..sadly..my blood pudding chip butty mary poppins...chap..is a fact.

I'm not fat..and my teeth are GREAT. :)

[BarrattG]

May i say stereotypes are never right nor clever. Factually speaking America has the highest rate of obesity of the western world, although england also has problems. Furthermore blood pudding is rarely eaten appart from silly tourists and chip butties ? we eat chips much the same way the Americans eat fries, we dont tend to put them in bread.

[Robin89uk]

Wtf u tlkin bout? I rock the chip butty on a regular basis as do many of my friends and relatives. And not just chip butties but fishfinger, sausage, bacon... the list goes on and its all good. Also tourists dont eat black pudding, lorry drivers and their wives do! Shudd up you cunt!

[BarrattG]

Just because your a lorry driving yocal doesnt mean the rest of england is. ok working class yobs fit the steroeotype good thing im not working class.

[hammy606]

i like to poach an egg in a tin of soup and serve with a pork pie, sausage roll.

[KittySaysWoof]

Really? is it nice?

X

[hammy606]

cant say ive actually had it before, i only wrote it due to the insane ramblings about chip butties above.

its from a sitcom called Garth Marenghi's darkplace. watch this watch?v=BH4_mZh-bj8&feature=re­lated

[Kris101988]

haha :D

[kanharn]

lol the US has no free dental plan or health care system, and if it wasn't for us English you would all still be in Ireland. the only culture the US has is it history of slavery and failed wars. the world hates the US, the UK is its last ally why. coz your all a bunch of ignorant retards and 90% of you are that poor you have never left your home town or been to a diff country. All your famous people live in London coz US is a shit hole

[98ladybulldogs]

dude, im live in the US and im not ignorant. there are lots of ignorant people here but i wasnt raised that way. besides, my family came here from germany not too long ago. im not irish or english at all... and if you were smart enough you would know that we only officially failed one war so far and we have much more allies than just the UK... and not all people agree with the wars.

anyway, great song.

[TQOC]

Are you fucking kidding me?! You obviously don't know shit about US history because we've pretty much won every single war we fought, and not everyone is an ignorant asshole or poor. Maybe you should actually come over here and see because in certain areas in the US you can find a lot of well educated people that are wealthy. And yeah we might not be the most well liked country right now but we sure as hell are better then the UK.

[BarrattG]

FYI every war that america has entered has been to benefit america oil resources whatnot. when they cant cope with the war they withdraw saying they won and their mission is complete. whereas i like america and support them as an ally of england, do not believe everything you are told, its in americas bst interest to say they won every war.

[MHavenger34]

agrred

[Robin89uk]

WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam? Besides, I don't see why securing the world's oil supply isn't a good reason to go to war. If Iraq and Afghanistan hadn't been under the control of evil regimes I might think differently but they were so.....

[talveer2]

America lost Vietnam.

[benwaddelling]

Hahahahahah what an idiot

[lKingLouisl]

Ummm... OK. Don't see how a Cribs video bought that about...

[alfredbites]

lol im an americab and i speak five different languages and have been outside of america multiple times dumbass speak for yourself

[kanharn]

you mean "I'm American" lol dumb ass. shame you cant spell in one language or use basic grammer.

[celtriot]

im sure thats ignorant aswel

picking ppl up on their spellings...you cant argue a point so you aim ur attention at the individual

im not sure if you can see from your throne but england is full of the "poor"

its the bands that rise from this working class background that have the most success-tragedy always sounds better its emotive its music

im english...i have come from a workng class background and gone into middle class...the class system is bullshit

[celtriot]

"poor you have never left your home town or been to a diff country" and you cant have been that far yourself you have never experianced the beauty of equality

like all countrys both the UK and US have its share of cunts, the whole worlds fucked up deffo england and americas its lil twisted baby

when it comes down to it id rather live in the US, yeah it has gated communitys but there are places full of diversty and culture

peace love and petrol bombs

[benwaddelling]

Go die in the coal mines then Faggot. No one gives a shit. hahaha

[celtriot]

ben u clearly give a shit as you wasted ur time responding

derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrr

[vondenbenken]

the United States is a mixture of cultures from all over the world. That's what so great about it :)

[gdawgisgansta]

he is such a poser LOL!!!

[EmmaLUVSspiderwebb]

is that the dude thats in sweeney todd? looks really similar!! ♥

[MarlboroShinobi]

you can tell shes a brit because of her teeth..get a dentist UK :)

[HsojNosnibor]

Only if you go to weight watchers USA ;)

[KittySaysWoof]

I'm from england and in all my life i've never had one filling or any problems AT ALL with my teeth....

[m0thland]

@MarlboroShinobi Seriously man. I get it, yes you don't like my teeth (it's the gir in the video). But the angle of the camera was wierd so it makes my teeth look wierd.

Honestly, there are alot of people who hae much worse teeth than me, I just have vampire fangs. Why the fuck am I justifying myself to some bloke on youtube.

Anyway, I'd rather have my teeth than look like an insurance salesman. So there.

[morgiemooshine]

Sweet! they have the Acedemy is... on this!?

[Jellyfish124]

I've only just started listening to them, and I love them! :D They're brilliant

[ginonig]

esa loceta debio tener granadas...citas a la basura!!!!!!

[iroonder]

amo esta cancion

[barcalmlmlmlmlmmessi]

i love the cribs i have all of theyre albums and i listen to all of theyre songs at least ten times a day

[lacvieux]

i like the cribs.

[postave2o4]

what does realist mean?

[HelmetHeadHair]

realist is somebody who only considers things as they are or appear to be, and avoids ideals and abstractions.

like the guy on the video thinks she stood him up. but in the reality she is knocked out by a planter... lol get it??

[ijestar]

it means that you look at things in a more practical way and don't like to think things occur because of the gods or because of karma. if you get what i mean.

[HelmetHeadHair]

i really like this video

[himsn123]

why do they do there hair etc then have a bath?

[BarrattG]

they are indecisive

[fruitcakezilla]

i'm not going to lie.

i've watched this video at least a thousand times.

[icantbreath05]

hummm same did u singing really loud to :D

[SusanMillerRag]

gary- the romantic

ryan- the realist

i love this band.

[LongySenior]

does she die or get knocked out?

[l0uisw3bb93]

they wernt allowed to make it for definate if she died, coz the intial idea was to electricute her, but they wouldnt let them do that, so they had to leave it on a cliffhanger.

thats also why britney speares doesnt die in that video where shes in the bath.

[Hillondon]

sware nostreum quintus ;D

[Hiya0you]

Don't get me wrong but...

the video makes me sad how he thinks she's stood him up but really she got knocked out by a plant pot. Amazing song though :)

[IVEFOUNDMYLOBSTER]

oh yer i never noticed that the cribs walked past at the end

[itachiifan]

I never noticed that The Cribs walked past that dude at the end

[Hiya0you]

British Teeth? I'm british and my teeth don't look like hers...

[ucanfind99]

i tottally agree, i dont get this british teeth thing, what wrong with british teeth?

[rfeprod]

Also, she looks like sunny lane, the porn star.

[rfeprod]

She has British teeth.

[i8o9p]

She is a mutant.

Here... youtube watch?v=KtzO9_qQ_tU (at 2 minutes) someone is counting her teeth.

[bigmacontour]

rubbish video, good song

[okigil]

uhm...that guys hot and all, but he's super annoying. he just gives off such a douchebag vibe...

[narffest]

possibly one of my favourite song :)

love cribs. they make wakefield proud :)

[apollocreedno2]

the real Q's is why the hell would she put on make up and then have a bath??

just to be ironic i guess!!!1

[juansayblue]

awesome song but wat the hell is with the video

[UpsidedownJanna]

why does the guy have a bra?

[OneInterpol]

That's how I feel before a date... lol

[paddyemond]

why would she need to grab the towel whist shes in the bath?

[rodders2yk]

It ain't a documentary!

[realkurson]

it's so cute~

[billionpeacetable]

this video- contructed to create the essence of a jumbled up mind.

-2 people excited about seeing each other.

-The silly fact the towel was placed under the plant pot shows their OWN clumsiness/indecisiveness & MEANT to look like 'accident waiting to happen'

Girl -trying out makeup before going in the bath because- highlights theme of indecisiveness; how it gets in her way & it runs down her face in the bath showing she has a ROMANTIC nature but her INDECISIVENESS makes a mess of stuff

[WezTheManc]

who ever directed this video is a fucking idiot its all backwards.

[bethalice]

dude in it is so hot

[p4ddyy8692]

i love this song and the cribs but this video is shit! who puts on make-up and then goes in the bath or puts deodorant on and then goes for a shower lol?!

[l0uisw3bb93]

I think its meant to be irnoic but im not sure...all i know is the girls my sister :)

[i8o9p]

G'day l0uisw3bb93, Lottie is also doing her dance in this: youtube watch?v=44Ktya1kyCg

She has her mutant teeth counted here: watch?v=KtzO9_qQ_tU

And this one: watch?v=Nmq-BkruPrU won best music video in the CWFF awards last month

[tdye18]

she is sooooooooooooo hot

[juansayblue]

what idiot puts a flower pot above a bath tub wouldn't they except it to fall on them?

[Burkey20o8]

and what idiot puts the towel they are going to dry themselves under the heavy flower pot that will fall on them so they would have to do it on purpose.weird lol

[vampyres14]

ah thats sad.. but wicked awesome

[iamtheshambles]

Oh, and I also don't care for the irony of it, I just don't like the video.

[daveyisahermin]

i like chicken i like liver meow mix meow mix please deliver

[iamtheshambles]

This video is so shit...

Not a bad song though.

[tdye18]

omg iamtheshambles! how can u say that? its awsome

[iamtheshambles]

Just my opinion, nothing else.

[garygooner78]

Great Song....................

[mansouri87]

which girl puts on make up then decides to take a bath?....strange lol.

[daveyisahermin]

or which lad drys his hair then gets in the shower lol

[devvodachav]

its nt bad (my m8 Jordan told me 2 put it on so i cn comment it

[AidanP70]

heard the cribs for lik the first time about a month ago

and i am fuckin lovin them

[conawillvlog]

yorkshire doesnt get enough recognition, but its produced some amazing bands and musicians

[diabolicS2angel]

i was adicted to this music for over 2 months LOL

[80Albion80]

First saw these lads supporting Maximo Park

(my ex liked them) at Manchester Apollo in 05 & they were class.

So thank you Sarah....you gave a shit BJ & your music taste was awful but 4 this I will always be grateful.

[YouLittleCretin]

LOL

[mabscotland]

plantpot head

[Grant790]

these americans can just fuck off, this is one of the best bands ever produced and if it is ment to be about ott indie kids its alll you american lot who are just wannabes so u go over the top

PEACE

[bonzaswillrule]

why does she put make up on and then get in the bath? i just dont get the 'cool' kids...

[MadFrankTheRipper]

Erm, at great risk of making myself look like a tit this video uses a little something called irony. It could be that you are only too familiar with this in which case i have indeed made a tit of myself. Otherwise live and learn!

[bonzaswillrule]

well my comment was meant in an ironic way, that they are the 'ccol' kids and its just playing on the stereotype... but i will live and learn anyway cos thats just good advice :)

[luckeyman66]

this is probably the best music video i have ever seen, brilliant

[philcs]

I agree

[aniesaralonde]

lol I've seen this video earlier but it hasn't charmed me like it does now... Haha xD Maybe it's just that I haven't remembered the song, but the vid... And then I heard words of this song and couldn't rem video xD Ech, now I see... xD Hahaha and btw, great song.

[043fieo]

ha love how all the americans are taking the piss out of the video because they don't know what it's about.

[l0uisw3bb93]

lol

[JELLYFOXXX]

i love this song but ive never watched the video all the way to the end

its so sad

but the rest of it is really cute :)

[3thatdamnrobot]

heyy(: ive never really listened to the cribs but i'd like to get into them now. can anyone recommend their best album or whatever? thanks

[jake300000]

Men's needs, women's needs, whatever. That's their third album, their latest and I reckon their best.

Download it, listen to it, obsess over it, then download the previous two.

[AndySFHui]

love the vid and the song. Isn't this suppose to be a piss take of indesicive twatty OTT indie kids?

[HarryNeverBothers]

I certainly hope so. hehe...

[acac3991]

Jus cos all the great band r british and cos we used 2 own u......

[natalieisgreat]

Why are a load of Americans taking the piss out of the video just because it isnt amazing, commenting on shitty little details :/

They are being all steryotypical aswell, tbh

love the song though,

:)

[neo214]

Why does this girl have on lipstick in the bathtub? I'm no lipstick expert, but wouldn't that wash off?

[KELLYpickles]

love the song, and the idea 4 the video is gud.. but its totally ruined..

who keeps thier towel under a plantpot? and dreis thier hair and does thier makeup b4 washing..

and of course it was made in the uk...they r an english band.. and blanking out shit, such a cop out, lol, but i still love them!

and the guy, yea hes fit, but by the end hes bladdy annoying, he doesnt even no the words!

[HAMMOBHOY]

who gives a fuck?

listen to the song thats all that matters u dipshit!

[KELLYpickles]

BAHAHA! yea i no.. and i love the song! and i love the cribs.. but still there wouldnt be a video, if u werent supposed 2 watch it..

[EscapingFromMe]

i love this song its soo catchy nd i love the video u sooo dnt expect her to get killed

!

[jake300000]

The bloke in this video is a dickhead, and consistently acts like an idiot throughout.

I should've been in this video.

[123emziwenn]

haha. sour grapes there mate?

[jake300000]

Meh, I just think the bloke is a dick.

[HarryNeverBothers]

I agree. But I think it was supposed to rip the piss out of stupid ultra-fasionable typical teenage indie fuckwits.

[jake300000]

Good point.

Anyone would think The Cribs didn't like ultra-'fashionable' teenage indie dickheads ;]

[l0uisw3bb93]

lol

[itsakito89]

the boy looks a bit like heath ledger...

great song !!

[neilybob04515]

this might be picky but why dry ur hair then get in the shower? love to song tho lol
