  • @MrJustinification That's a pretty solid list haha, I gotta agree with "All the Go In Betweens", I don't think they'll ever write a better song.

  • I thought the name of the album was "Canvas" for sooooooooooooo long.

  • AHW. This song is so good,

  • <3 Silversun Pickups... they sound like NO ONE but themselves...

  • Is it just me or does it sound like he's singing in reverse in some kind of way. Kind of a rhetorical question..

  • CHEEEEAAAPPP

  • this wee film you've made to the song is sooo simple but i absolutely love it.

  • @darkdaysindecember thank you, friend!

  • Absinthe Films.... Optimistic.... amazing.

  • absolutely amazing video dude!!!

  • wunderschön

  • :((

  • omg this video make me trip

    ^_^

  • This Ones . . . . . . dope

  • My fav song on the album. It's brilliant start to finish, nice time signature and tempo changes with brilliant singing, instruments and ambience. Great album great band, Love the influences in this band, plus they bring their own sound, sounds like Smashing pumpkins in their shoegaze era, and My bloody valentine.

  • j'adore cette chanson

  • I did a cover of Rusted Wheel on my guitar. Check it out.

  • Good song, i still dont get the lyrics but good song.

  • My favorite SSPU song by far on any album and this is a great video for it!

  • probably my favorite song on carnavas...is this a different version? it sounds....odd im not sure.

  • Could be, I think the mp3 I used was directly from the CD, but I might be mistaken, it was a while ago...haha

  • no my bad it turns out the whole i time i had a different version on my ipod lol i bought the cd on sunday ;]

  • @TheAmazingAnarchist1 oh yeah they're awesome!

  • @vdoza33 search on beemp3

  • Comment removed

  • I saw this band live as they were a guest band for placebo. Silversun pickups are a great band with great music, however live, they are painful to the ears. The guitar or whatever wasn't set up right and it just sounded awful and overdominating. I love this song though.

  • I've seen them a couple of times and they were amazing! you must of just got a bad gig =( dont let it put you off

  • @Dalrrr yeah perhaps :) I'll bear that in mind if they come round here to play again

  • I've seen them twice, and I understand what you mean by the guitar overdominating, because they are an extremely loud live band believe it or not. I think it probably depends on where you see them and where in the crowd you're situated -- also they're able to pull off some songs (Lazy Eye) a lot better than certain others.

  • OPTIMISTIC!!! best snowboard video and great song!

  • @shredstick153 yo does someone want to let me know what "optimistic" is referring to, and why people keep saying it in the comments of this video?

  • its a super good snowboard video by absinthe films and they use this song in the very begining

  • haha ok thanks, ever since i uploaded this people have been commenting that this song was in "optimistic" and i was a little confused

  • @shredstick153 yeah man i have the same sick snowboarding video, wicked visuals

  • yeeeesssss! OPTIMISTIC! best snowboard video ever!!!

  • This song was in the movie Dread...which made me happy. I love this band. And Dread is an AWESOME movie.

  • Silversun Pickups are amazing, not one bad song from them, not even their experimental Pikul EP.... all the Swoon album is the best for me at least... Carnavas got them a foothold in mainstream.

  • The Best Song

  • favorite song to snowboard to

  • i love silversun pickups, they are awesome! I'm learning this song right now on bass, but of course its not as good yet

  • Best song off of the first album IMO. Not sure why Lazy Eye was the only song to really gain any public popularity even though I like it as well.

  • this was on The O.C. :)

  • I loveee Dis song(:

  • bikers song

  • placebo

    this song was in a fucking great snowboard movie

  • This song sounds like its about depression to me. Rusted wheel, planted still. Makes me think about myself a little sometimes... and just helps motivate me to keep finding a better plan even with all of life's crap.

  • Optimistic? :D

  • i can't stop listen to this song,

    it's just awesome

  • Can we stop with the sounds likes and just enjoy this song for what it is? -- amazing.

  • what? mudvayne? kill hannah? oh nonono.

  • he sounds like kill hannah vocalist

  • I hear Placebo & I think they're a little bit like them.

    I really like this song <3

  • Funny you say that mate. the are the suprise act before placebo sunday in antwerp. :-) i am gonna see them

  • Placebo never wrote lyrics like these guys.

  • The OC forever <3333

  • i listen to this song 3 times a day or more. this is an amazing song.

  • I'm really liking Silversun Pickups. Anybody else think they sound a lot like Placebo too?

  • placebo? are you crazy?

  • I get a Smashing Pumpkins impression actually.

  • just the ambient sounds in the background. other then that they dont sound alike :(

  • sound kind of like the brian jonestown massacre

  • To be honest, they just sound like Silversun Pickups to me. A LOT of people compare them to Smashing Pumpkins, but D'Arcy Wretzky herself has said in an interview that Silversun Pickups don't remind her of her former band at all.

  • I agree with you, sliversun pickups are awesome, first heard them on guitar hero thought they were awesome and looked em up

  • @TheAmazingAnarchist1 I totally agree, people allways tend to compare art and music to other bands or artists/styles, and sometimes their pushing it hard. The sound of the guitar are sometimes similar to Smashing Pumpkings because of their ´´Indie nature´´ thats all, but Silversun Pickups have different drums(not better) and a lot more of good bass lines that make them be theirselves, and sounds great. littlebirdy

  • Comment removed

  • Thank you guys for all the nice comments, hopefully I'll add more Silversun Pickups videos swoon, er, I mean...soon.

  • "swoon...soon" very clever! ;)

    "swoon" is epic, and reallyshould get some consideration from the "academy" or whoever it is that decides who gets a grammy.

  • i just found this band....i faved this and panic switch......i love them !!

  • Oh damn this is the opener for Optimistic... Freaking sweet!

  • i want this version!!!!!!

  • Sweet!

  • " their entire first album "Canvas" is fucking amazing."

    AGREED.

  • Carnavas bro.

  • swoon is fantastic as well

  • it's Carnavas.

  • there's always different versions of many songs. I've only heard two.

  • how many version this song have???

  • There's a different version of this out there somewhere that I used to have but lost when my iPod crashed. Anyone know where I can find a more acoustic version of this song?

  • If you ignore the stupid video and just listen to the audio, this is probably what you were looking for:

    watch?v=CXDf3mJ2HL4

  • my problem it's the other way i can't find this version of the music

    where can i find??/

  • i can send you the acoustic version if you'd like... it's not on youtube to my knowledge

  • hell yeah i know what you mean i havent heard a song by them that i didnt like

  • seriously they are all so... i don't even know the word for it.. it's just soothing, and great and whatever else lol

  • When I listen to their songs, especially this one, I feel like I'm floating on clouds or bubbles. Know what I mean?

  • FLOATING on...whatever...on something...but Floating...really know what u mean

  • yeahh, I love listening to this band, his voice is so unique and combined with the unique guitar sound this band has it's too perfect

  • i love themmmm. [:

    my boyfriend got me into them.

    every song ive listened to ive LOVED.

  • I love them, too. I heard Well Thought Out Twinkles and every song I hear by them I fall in love with.

  • depressing music is depressing

  • sometimes music is better than words to express one's feelings. it might be "depressing", but it does help.

  • Deep lyrics, big picture.

    Dense subtle high energy

    with a beautiful melody

    Quite rare, very very good

  • love this song!!!!!!

  • I love this song

  • I agree with your comment>>> I was impressed with the Guitar Hero single, but after researching the band, I fell in love with both albums Swoon and Carnavas.

  • This video is awesome,

    At first I thought it was the original video for the song!

    I especially like the part with the clouds

  • oralbambi =D

  • their first album wasnt Carnavas, it was Pikul, Carnavas was their first album that ever got publicity from the media

  • If you want to be technical, Pikul was an EP, so Carnavas is their first full-length studio album.

  • 8D nice

  • optimistic! :D

  • fantastic song! and i like the video :)

  • fantastic song! and i like the video :)

  • Optimistic?

  • great ;)) favv
