  • I think the comment "does he have to be black" wasn't appropriate. It wasn't only black people stealing or doing wrong things, ever race has it's good and it's bad people.

  • id murder them if they did that shit to me

  • it's a dog eat dog world, especially in Chicago

  • @PillsburyHoBoy Dogs don't eat each other.

  • I feel like this video isn't promoting thievery, it's just an anecdote about a bunch of li'l fucks.

    If anything it's just modern "A Clockwork Orange" toned way the hell down.

  • @Willaporte That's exactly what I thought when I first saw this video. Even their outfits reminded me of it.

  • 2:05 The poor man was just trying to take a sh*t!

  • this song makes me wanna strut down the street in jeen's, jeen's shirt, and a hung dry jeen's jacket with some reflective shades.

  • so good.

  • are you serious with a damn 30 second ad?

  • ^hipster people complaining getting top comments

  • you guys should do a video of the exotic and strange ghettos of seattle

  • Now why did they break John Popper's guitar? ;)

  • I just want to meet John Gourley. I got some twangy riffs to show him :)

  • love this music

    

  • The Dead Dog: An old bar, now closed, in Wasilla, Alaska. Closed because it was believed to have lost it's down and out feel, because of, "the influx of population, a supermarket nearby and an Alaska State Troopers substation on the same property, the owners felt the area no longer had the rough-and-tumble environment desirable to continue running a self respecting bar."

  • @snowtoology soooo....I was totally just thinking about that place! I spent my 21st there...totally miss it, but the Roadside & Silverfox make up for it now....

  • i saw their albums at the mall.. I wanted them all!

  • Comment removed

  • this video was uploaded in my birthday hahaha *wait Who cares??? no one cares -_-

  • Come To Portugal !!!!!

  • I fucking hate the commercials I'm forced to watch on You tube now. But I fucking love this song!

  • @CanadianOakley get Google Chrome as your browser. Then download Ad Block Plus from the app store (it's free) BAM!!! no more YouTube ads. Not even the little one that pops up at the bottom. :D

  • love the song, but i don't understand what the video is trying to express...

    I hope its something deeper and I hope no idiot moron comes along watching this thinking it's cool if they do it too

  • I didnt know Joaquin Phoenix was in a gang of minors. Hunh.

  • of course the guy who stole the boombox is black

  • i see art

    music and ideas.

  • this music brings my beloved country's name to SHAME!

  • damn amazing song, if I do say so myself

  • This is the most innocent gang I've ever seen.

  • @animation508 mostly because no one got killed...

  • good song, not a fan of the video.

  • Afinal é ou não portuguesa esta banda??????'?

    Aguém me elucida????

  • @Msrenaultclio55  nao, nao é portuguesa. penso que sao americanos.

  • @MegsGrant  - Obrigado

  • @Msrenaultclio55 Cara o cantor e contra-baixista são de um estado no EUA chamada Alaska e o baterista e tecladista são de de uma outra chamada Oregon todos eles são Americano

  • @shardapes Obrigado.....

    

  • This reminded me of Justice's video Stress! similar subject and style.

  • This video reminds me of bankrobber by the Clash in the beginning

  • Comment removed

  • Dop song!  Aight, I give P.T.M props fo sho.

  • they don't have a parents .

  • look B.Y.O.B !!! of system of a down in the MINUTE 2.19 IN THE DOOR near the woman. great.

  • @soremachima B.Y.O.B. means Bring Your Own Bottle. Restaurants advertising B.Y.O.B. allow your to bring your own alcohol onto their premises. Just sayin'.

  • @MrHipster21 Have you read the book?

  • They're the kids from that "You got served" South Park

  • Clock WorK OrAnge,

  • SUCH A STUPID VIDEO!

  • seattile is so beautiful

  • does he have to be black.

  • @killingmeOo who?

  • @killingmeOo If he wasn't you'd ask why there were white and asian kids but no black kid. He simply is. Dope video.

  • @killingmeOo do you have to care? if he was white, no one would've said anything. which would have been just as racist...

  • @killingmeOo To be in accordance with reality, yes. Most disenfranchised youths are, in fact, black.

  • @killingmeOo No, he could just as easily be pink, or green. Taste the Rainbow.

  • Epic Meal time?? Didn't know he ran a gang of thieves too.

  • Hi

  • so excellent

  • Was hoping they brought the boombox back to the old Pakistani clerk at the end. Shopkeepers aren't "the man" and they don't "have it made". They're just hard working folks trying to pay bills.

  • @al0220google Pakistani? How the fuck do you know he was Pakistani?

  • @al0220google the point. you missed it. all of these people are assholes. these aren't heros and that's what's beautiful about it.

  • @al0220google The people in this video aren't "sticking it to the man", they are just thugs.

  • @al0220google this song is not for "the man" is for all the washed up people in the bar. you don't try now to better yourself. just wait and have fun.

  • @9AIDS The lyrics are about that, though. Taking money from "the man" or people who have it made, lol

  • @al0220google yeah i'm sure this video was directed to portray ethnic clerks as the upper class. quite an assumption that he is from Pakistan too. could have been Indian, or American.

  • @al0220google this gets me mad about music videos.. this video glorifies the violence and theft of ordinary, middle class people (like the old man in 1:10).

    A more befitting illustration of this song would have been occupy wall street or something along those lines

  • @UIWCardinalArmy because glorifying lazy slobs is way better

  • @al0220google 27 shopkeepers liked this

  • @al0220google I'm pretty sure that's not the message.

  • Damn you joesph gordon-levitt, you know I can't skip you!

  • I feel sorry for the people lol?!

  • i just love that old guy's face :)

  • a true american ghetto

  • Reminds me of the the music video for Justice-Stress

  • that's a funky beat! Dat's a funky ass beeeet yo!

  • if he did that to my guitar i'd punch the little prick in the nads and fuck his mom.

  • Rachel Wickard is hot

  • Justice-Stress ripoff

  • damn crips.

  • This video reminds me of the book Milkweed.

  • 2:00 That kid is quite adorable. x3

  • Those people must never stereotype

    I know if I saw some kids coming looking like bandits I would be on my toes

  • They remind me of Bender's orphans from that episode of Futurama.

  • This summer, I teached a whale to jump out of it's tail.

  • @4805440708 teached...

  • @4805440708 Taught. Taught. You taught a whale to jump out of its tail. :P

  • 2:59 over and over again.

  • this is pretty much a music video of oliver twist lol

  • reminds me of Prodigy's "Hot Ride" vid

  • sweet old man gets heartache over a pretty girl, maybe remembering a cute girl that he was once too shy to talk to. now that regret is all that he can feel.

    she steals his wallet.

  • This video has inspired to start my own gang of pickpockets , i'm hitting up the elementary schools looking for talent

  • I didn't know Joaquin Phoenix was in Portugal. The Man haha

  • @alee891 I really dont understand your comment

  • @shibbiguy95

    Compare there drummer Jason Sechrist, they guy with the beard and sunglasses in the video....... You'll get it

  • These advertisements are getting really annoying. I shouldn't have to watch a twenty second add every time I want to watch a music video.

  • why the fuck is there a gatorade advertisement on here

  • @MrSkate4weed mine was an olay advertisement... balls in your court

  • @Because1ate7 try DMT before you get too old...

  • @Caboose389 So did I. I haven't stopped listening to them since I discovered them.

  • I want to punch those kids.

  • look up Sniper - Brûle (German & English subtitles) [French rap]

    this video is much milder version of that haha. great video!!

  • this was sad

  • @squeelthis it is a noun. a noun can be a place. but in this case no. the dead dog means something metaphorically and it is different for everyone. in my opinion it stands for the world but it can mean whatever you want it to mean which may be in fact a dead dog.

  • @mellowmarshmel actually the dead dog is a saloon in alaska 

  • ho nehh sick dance moves yo!!

  • Great video, many identifiable images; not to mention the great music

  • You sexualize children so effortlessly to make your point. Is that a good thing?

  • @Kiernan007 if it gets the point across i would consider it a good thing

  • lol, of course the gas station manager is indian :)

    (not racist! I'm indian and just laughing at the stereotype)

  • 2:20 Nooooooooo!!!

  • these kids are pure evil.. still lovable though.

  • 2:21D:

  • I really dont like the guitar part D:

  • fuck you

    

  • this video is a lot like that one Justice music video for the song Stress by Romain Gavras. Super sick song by Portugal though forsure! and sweet video still none the less.

  • @venceslau86 Just because a director makes a movie that involves rape or murder doesn't mean they support it. Same goes for a music video, lighten up and enjoy the tunes.

  • @venceslau86 You obviously don't know why their name is what it is. Go back, catch up, and don't be so uptight. They don't make music to be negative, it's always something deeper. Learn about it. #PTM

  • @venceslau86

    go smoke a bowl then listen to it again.

  • @venceslau86 its a music video its not like this actually happened they are all actors.

  • @mellowmarshmel Thanks for letting me know they are all actors...I hadn't realized! It's about the idea that's being portrayed my friend...not right in any way whatsoever. Incorrect. Unethical...100% Inadmissivel...mete mesmo nojo este filme.

  • man so sad about that man whit the guitar but you guys are cool

    

  • That little girl is so pretty :o

    I'm older than her and I'm still jealous!

    Oh yeah, and P.TM is fantastic, yada yada

  • Interesting video. I'm from Wasilla so I know of the Dead Dog Saloon you're singing about, went to school across the highway form there for years! xD

  • god damn finish buffering! fucking youtube

  • its a roving gang of urkels

  • This music video is legit

    Very classy

  • Im portuguese and why is this bands name Portugal? just to know

  • you know at first i didn't like this song, and now, listening to it closely and with much respect to the production aspect of it, I can safely say that it's dope. much respect guys

  • words can not describe the pure gravity of this song. absolutely amazing. and the video, i think, fits quite well.

  • this band has the coolest music videos! and the songs always go with the videos perfect

  • This music video reminds a little bit "Stress", from Justice, but without the stress.

  • For a second I thought that guy who got his guitar smashed was John Popper from Blues Traveler.

  • @GranCaida I thought the exact same thing. Cameo appearance maybe?

  • @HomebeatRecords :

    I have a creeping feeling its got something to do with break dancing and organized crime.

  • this is absolutely amazing. I am in love with this band

  • Holy crap, that's Chicago. Portugal The Man just went up about 40 rungs on the cool ladder. And there are only about 5 rungs left.

  • those kids are dicks

  • @Mrhockeyo8 So true.

    Robbing, Stealing, Pick locking...

    I own a guitar myself, and i got it after working whole summer, just to get it. I love guitars, and I'm obsess with them

    And they just come and smash it. People like these should get their faces smashed against a wall like they smashed that guitar.

  • @Mrhockeyo8 yup. lol. regulators round up. shit don't happen on our watch

  • <3 Come Back to Higher Ground, VT

  • Not to be gay about the dislikes, but fuck all the faggets who disliked this. Suck a heavy dick.

  • I couldn't have been the only one that was reminded of Justice's video for "stress"... /watch?v=FU7bFpPJiww

  • i love PTM, but this video is too similar to Justice's Stress video

  • @swiftybabe25 I just read this after I posted my comment and I agree!

  • wowser

    

  • Seeing Larry the Cable Guy before watching this video still didn't ruin this for me.

  • Seeing Larry the Cable Guy before watching this video still didn't ruin this for me.

  • omg this is so good

  • Sweet Persol's Jason

  • this has to be the best and or the video slash song ever made

  • P. TM videos add so much to the songs. not that they even need it.

  • 7morons 7idiots 7douche bags 7scum bags 7people who need hearing aids 7re-tards like tom greens dad in freddy got fingered would say it!!! yes 7cake boys 7ragmunching crotchsniffing chode lickers!!!!

    and like a couple hundred people who know whuts up!!!!

  • the 7 dislikes are gay.

  • hey johnny, when you wrote "if you find me at the dead dog" did you mean the dead dog saloon on parks highway?lol

  • Comment removed

  • I like the kids dancing, not stealing.

  • it's like Oliver Twist

  • haha i herd on the radio i think it was this song that they based this off a bar in alaska XD

  • I am just guessing this was shot on DSLR. Looks beautiful, but that is just my guess!

  • I want to go on a rampage after seeing those SOBs break that guitar haha

    Portugal, you guys are just awesome.

  • Compared to their earlier work, this isn't that special. Why not make an official video for "Sleeping Sleepers Sleep", "My Mind", or "Tommy"? Now that would make my pants dance!

  • @punkretart Because those songs aren't worthy of a music video, new stuff is better for those with an open mind.

  • @vfactor2

    Your comment doesn't strike me as someone with an open mind.

    "Aren't worthy"? Either change your word use or don't be a hypocrite.

  • anyone know anything about any upcoming albums of theirs?
