wow... just discovered these guys... and wow

[norgerlanber]

I've been listening to this album since it came out. I am just now seeing this video. It is actually really good. Pleasant surprise, truly.

[EIAercle]

Cant get better then this some of the best artist make a band

[ericrdutton]

m. ward is my favorite monster

[sweetfly66]

just saw them on austin city limits ... unbelievably good

[youreveningcoat]

Why is Jim playing drums left handedly

[OBlahBlahBlah]

awesome solo starts 2:06, you're welcome \m/

[SmellsLikeLazySpirit]

Love this song!

And may I add:

Damn, Mike is freakin' awesome!

[MiCaElAlove5]

I love this song, it is my new thing since I burned myself out on Bon Iver

[polykuromu]

not just a great song, but a visually stunning video as well. i have to wonder about a story behind the party that's going on here.

[nuudelchin]

- Please !

[MrCatzcats]

Oberst did switch from playing right handed guitar to left handed at 2:58! Wtf!

[VelvetSynclaire]

@MrCatzcats haha he's playing it right-handed, they reversed the camera. I dont know why but sometimes cameras do that on their own, everything looks like it's mirrored

[Saverosso]

2:07 = Ownage

[aslison1]

M. Ward and Oberst have very similar voices that it is sometimes hard to distinguish them.

[Katharine777]

@aslison1 they sound NOTHING alike. haha just sayin

[aslison1]

@Katharine777 Oberst has a more rough voice but there is a similarity.

[DisenchantedMyChem]

Thank you for doing what you do. ♥

[Trinitus231]

could the 3 ppl who disliked this video respond to me as to why you clicked that button?

[Farfrae]

hollddd outt ya haaaaandddd.......... holllddd out ya haaaandddd :-p Great song, love all of Connor's work(that's where I'm coming from when it comes to this band)-- of course I have to hand it to the other vocalists as well though, this is a great group. Thanks MoF for putting the song up.

And at the comment that said Mike Mogis is a genius - there's no other word for him, my friend :)

[freakystylntime]

I fucking hate essays.

[deboranogable]

niceeeeeeee

[ofMilwaukee]

mike mogis is a genius.

[Jwats17]

M. Ward is m. azing

[stebuchove]

Anybody else notice Conor Oberst switch from regular to goofy? 2:58

[ofMilwaukee]

@stebuchove they just mirrored the video to make it fit

[stebuchove]

@ofMilwaukee What do you mean? To make the transition smooth? I'm not familiar with this technique.

[ofMilwaukee]

@stebuchove He didn't actually switch to goofy, the video editor simply had about 5 seconds of video that is mirrored from the original; everything is backwards. It honestly looks kinda strange, but I think it was for continuity purposes with the dancers moving in the same direction as the rest of the video. I probably would not have gone through that trouble, but whatever, MoF is still boss

[maferchan]

3 people didn't say please

[DavidHallermusic]

This is one of the most amazing bands in this years, I love it!

Mogis guitar work is just out of this world!

[hosway1992]

The amish like good music

[deboranogable]

amo monsters of folk!!! =D

[lumsandleafs]

@lbsmrbrb1 no thats the guy from my morning jacket

[surferriness]

haha conor , mogi, ward.. ;D youtubers are just awesome ;)

[TheOctodick]

Love the Gypsy babies dancing around the campfire. I used to be one of those.

[warmandsunnydays]

I really need to stop hitting the "replay" button.

[Vasserification]

M. Ward is one of the best voices of this musical era. perhaps not technically, but the manner in which he sings perfectly exemplifies the times. that soft whisper quality, especially. I wish I could explain it...

[karloser]

fuck! this guys kick ass... jim and conor badass like always

[DangerLoverBoy]

is conor on a 12 string?

[DreaminMyLifeAway]

lol, I love conor and he is the reason I am viewing this video and I have to say I am disappointed. I consider bright eyes' songs much better

[coughtogetoff]

@DreaminMyLifeAway you can't love him to much if this is the first time you heard this song considering this album has been out for almost a year. I personally like this side of him, his last album with brighteyes and his work with the mystic valley band have a more folk feel to them which i prefer to his Emo stuff... just my opinion though... you should check out the whole Monsters of Folk album if you haven't heard it, there are some definate jems on it... one of my faves from the last year

[BloodlightObsidian]

@coughtogetoff I wouldn't ever call the work as Bright Eyes 'emo stuff'

[coughtogetoff]

@BloodlightObsidian well it is, isn't he the king of emo... i don't mean it as a diss but it is what it is

[awolfinsheepswool]

i love this more than anything else.

[jeddieee]

Love to see Mogis so upfront and rocking out like that , what a treat <3

[DropdeadKimmi]

I love how they always share the lyrics so evenly. In almost all their songs.

[orange0wns]

conor bumps into the cymbals at the end.

[ipukezombies]

m ward <3

[pongkong1337]

opening song to smodcast 99 the great one

[dinosradd]

i literally just heard about these people and I like what I'm hearing

[maxwell762]

That divebomb at the beginning of the solo always gets me

[streeTkiDwannaBe]

Fuck Conor, I'm here for m. ward. Though Conor is pretty good.

[123missmurder]

Ah; my Conor<3

[heyjude97]

CONOR <3

[EWF515]

awesome. gotta love these guys.

[superdunce77]

Connor Oberst is one amazing songwriter road to joy is a great song.

[bandg4evr]

People that comment on these videos know good music.

[iRockYouRock67]

@bandg4evr Oh don't be so cocky now :P

n.n

But really, they do have good taste :B

[RyanAllenHolland]

i wish the doctors were cool enough to play monsters of folk when i got brain surgery rofl

[alexrempel]

@auteur116

oh man. i did a complete double-take when he did that divebomb right at the beginning of the solo. so fantastic.

[brugandolfo13]

I just love how you can feel Paul McCartney in this song!!! Amazing. Simple without being easy or lazy...

[thejoshuahicks]

very Electric Light Orchestra! and if you dont believe me go back and listen to the album "Time" f-ing amazing! Love this song too!!!

[pmop34]

i love the goodness you guys represent. wonderful video. even better album. "naive professionals" ha ha.

[maaaaaaaaddie]

why doesn't this have more views?

[eggplantmilkshake]

i thought M. Ward was singing the whole time the first time i heard this song, but i guess there voices all just blend really well

[phishing4umphrees]

I love this song, It was being played when the docters were putting me under when i got surgery a few monthes ago. it defenetly made me less nervous.

[glendasa101]

@phishing4umphrees whoa, coolest doctors ever!

[dropbows90]

@phishing4umphrees Where the hell do you go to the doctor? I want in.

[phishing4umphrees]

@dropbows90 Good ol' Minnesota

[Heaner]

@phishing4umphrees hell yeah man. MN represent

[JackieLegss]

@dropbows90 Seriously! haha

[Armistice0]

Notice the drummers eyes are closed throughout the video. Methinks he's tripping balls having a blast playing a song he help create. Blisssssss

[skelatwig91]

you mean Jim James.

[Armistice0]

Thanks, now I know his name.

[justinlc1]

This song sticks out. They need to make more songs like this!

[gapplec]

It's 4/4 but their playing in triplets...

[Hikaks]

[rupman27isback]

GREAT Video from an Amazing band.. WE want another album guys :)

[Muffindisaster]

[Muffindisaster]

Beautiful* :D

[Saoff]

MOGIS FTW!!!

[dasbox]

They rocked at the Coal Exchange!

[damronjustin]

BADASS!!!!!!!!!!

[dbeater1]

cool concept...beautiful hollow body electric...anybody know what model.

[MrRoyJordi]

Yes, I know it´s a Mosrite Guitar, don´t know exact model. I believe the owner of that guitar is Conor Oberst. He used in past tours with Bright Eyes, also Taylor Hollingsworth used it when touring with the Mystic Valley Band. Mosrite guitars are rare guitars. There´s no much info about them.

[dbeater1]

Hey thanks for the info ...these guys trade and play so many different instruments..they are all so talented.

[RyanInStitches]

Simply amazing guys <3

[nyorca]

Who came up with this? It's awesome! Conor looks like Huck Finn here. It took me a while to realize he's roller skating at the beginning!

[taylorjsirrah2094]

Great song, had the ringtone when Say Please came out. :) Good video too, good job

[Uhhxhi]

Where was this filmed?

Awesome video though.

I can't believe I couldn't go to the damn concert. :/

[trupianod]

awesome!! Monster of Folk FTW!!!

[ajmitch95]

nice
