  • Is this I love you Jesus Christ as a direct object.... or I love you, Jesus Christ an exclamation? I think it's up for interpretation. It might not be atheism, it might just be like Jesus Christ! I love you.

  • @schoolclothesmusic I dont even know who that is either lawl

  • @SheenaRazor wow...

  • This song is cool.

    Even if I don't believe in Jesus Christ.

  • @SheenaRazorhow could you no believe in jesus, he was on cesars census? do you not believe in napoleon?

  • @schoolclothesmusic

    Are you retarded? He lived at a different time than Caesar died 44 years before Jesus was allegedly born.

    Napoleon can be and has been unburied a couple times. We know he existed.

  • @TheGreatOldOnes lol i like how you stick "allegedly" in there. allegedly Caesar was emperor of rome too.

  • @almostunimportant

    ...except we have reason to think Caesar was emperor

  • My friend asked me to do a cover of this song, even though I had never heard it until just now. Wow. I have no clue how I'm gonna do it, considering I do mostly a capella music hahha.

  • @kittenfetus666 a capella would be hard for this song until you memorized the whole thing. Unless you take it in another direction. IMO

  • @MidgitNbikini Yeah. I actually posted a video of me attempting to do it on my channel, though it isn't completely a capella. Check it out! It's really shortened down, though.

  • IIIII LOVE YOU JEEESUHUHS KUHRIIUHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIST

  • i get it...and i think it's awesome. watched it twice even.

  • hay I get YOU,man.

    thanx

  • (ima chik)...but, i gotcha :)

  • @weezyglasses "i get it" Wait, was there a hidden message/parody in the vid? If there was I completely missed it. Perhaps you could enlighten me.

  • What was this guy on?

  • Man i loved the first part but the jesus christ part scares the shit outta me :P

  • ahahahhaahahaha

  • I hate that Jesus Christ part. The rest of the song rules, though.

  • @EMKTTHL , i agree, coming from someone who listens everything.from christian hardcore to satanic thrash, lyrics aren't always important. as long as it sounds good, who cares what there saying

  • @MidgitNbikini amen

  • I disagree. Lyrics are important if they're in the song. The meaning of the lyrics isn't necessarily important, but they should at least be admired if someone took the time to write them.

  • They aren't important to the music, but they can add to the experience.

  • I agree. Joe Strummer was asked by the Clash's producer to sing clearly. He tried it for a time, but it wasn't a satisfying experience for him. He said "It took all the vinegar out" and mentioned reggae singers, and how sometimes the lyrics aren't comprehensible the first time the song is heard. So, I love the Clash, I can't understand what Joe Strummer is singing in every song, but I love the music.

  • considering the typical pop song lyrics it's better not to understand them ... that's why english pop music's more popular in german speeking countries than their own (where you understand the stupid lyrics)

  • my friend, you are a cynic! :)

  • depends on the experience ^^; german's my mother tongue, so i stopped enjoying typical radio pop distributed in austria when i started to translate ... and, you have to search a lot for intelligent lyrics, even as far as indie is concerned. neutral milk hotel really is o.k.

  • fair enough. well said!

  • lyrics are EVERYTHING.

  • @MidgitNbikini

    No wonder you don't mind it, you're a brainless religion-lover.

  • @MidgitNbikini Ugh, since you replied to that, it's at the top and now I'm still getting replies to a 5 month old comment that expresses an opinion I don't have anymore. Anyways, I like that part now that I know it doesn't actually refer to Jesus Christ (see the lyrics booklet for this album) and I've gotten used to the sound of it. This whole album is an acquired taste, really, but especially that part.

  • @MidgitNbikini Lyrics are THE most important thing. wanna know why?

  • @benciano OH dear, why?

  • @MidgitNbikini Because the lyrics are the heart and soul, music supports the message. And the mostbeautiful thing about it is that lyrics will mean something to someone else, it will be diffrent for all the people that listens to the song. Thats why it makes it unique and special towards people.

  • @EMKTTHL

    Not sure why it would bother you. I mean, I am christian, but if he were to say "I love you Buddha/Allah/Krishna/Tom Cruise, it really wouldn't bother me.

  • @Afanmatt Yeah but you're not EMKTTHL, right? That means that your opinion is not his. In my opinion, religion and music should have nothing to do with each other.

  • @Opethvince

    I never said i was EMKTTHL, I was just stating my opinion just like you stated yours. I never said he was wrong, but said that im not sure why it would bother him.

  • @EMKTTHL I actually love the Jesus Christ part, but only because it makes me lulz. Why do they need to write so many damn songs about Jesus if NMH can sum it up in one awesomely cute little part 2 as they have there? I'm allowed to say that, I go to a Christain college.

  • @EMKTTHL i'm an atheist and the "jesus christ" part is my favorite. it's good to love, no matter who it is.

  • @EMKTTHL

    You gottsa be kittens dude,

    this hole song is just fantastttttic.

  • @EMKTTHL It says in the Album info that he doesn't mean it to be specifically about Jesus, but about the greater power in everyone to be loving and kind.

  • @Hadidet ,really? thats awesome!

  • @Hadidet Actually, he uses Jesus Christ as a figure of speech. He's not talking about how he loves Jesus, he's just using it to emphasize that he loves someone, in the way that someone says "Jesus Christ that was cool".

  • @Hadidet - I don't think he is professing his love to Jesus Christ in this song - I believe he is using "Jesus Christ" to express "how much" he loves the person he is referring to in this song . . . great tune no matter how one perceives it - - - the line that grabs me is: "I will float until I learn how to swim inside my mother the garbage bin" - - - child in the or from the womb of a drug / alcohol addicted mother?

  • @EMKTTHL I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVVVEEEEEEEEE THAAAAATTTTT JEEEEEEEEEEESSSSUS CHRIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSST PAAAAAAARRRRT

  • @EMKTTHL it hates u back

  • I love you jesus chriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiist

  • The words to this song are hilarious!

  • I made a lyrics video to this song. Check it out on my youtube channel if you want :)

  • this went from awesome shit to stupid jeebus brainwashing bs. D:

    Why?

  • @ZKoftherebellion, considering this is an album about the Holocaust and Anne Frank type stuff, it's sarcastic.

  • Jesus Christ, I love you too, senor.

  • I didn't think it was that bad of a video. Kinda reminds me of my first video for Foreground by Grizzly Bear.

  • this is your first video

  • @Hellbacon

    yep, ha

  • technically they aren't indie. they were signed to a label when they made this album

  • they were signed to an indie label.

  • @SomethingRules but thats not really indie. indie is you do it yourself. we think of small record labels as indie but its not.

  • whats terrible? the video or the song?

  • That is a very will thought out criticism. Have you thought about being a music critic?

  • reminds me of "gay nigger city" by the tesla coils. love this song

  • Fucking.....master piece.....

  • fucking fantastic music.

  • do they have anything else this awesome???

  • yes! this whole album is.

  • generic pop punk shit? ha. not anyone else creates this.

  • LOL, the start made me laugh for like 2 minutes.

  • pretty much exactly like that.

  • @safetosaydontquoteme

    How did this become the top comment?

  • lol

  • The beginning is like ".....?" but then it's such a jammin' tune!

  • THIS BANDS THE SHE SHIT!!! nice vid. Chris manum loves jesus christ. so do I. lol

  • Jeff Mangum* :]

  • uhm, neutral milk hotel.... indie, motion city soundtrack, generic pop punk shit.

  • how...?

    HOW?

    Seriously I don't see or, or hear it.

    Neutral milk hotel seems a little heavier. Like at the 1:45 or around there.

    Then motion city soundtrack sounds more pop-ish.

  • I guess. I hadn't really formed a definitive opinion on NMH when I first posted that comment. They really aren't comparable to Motion City Soundtrack, just because the genres are so different.

  • Indie-riffic vidja :D

  • And by indie, for once I mean good :D

  • Exactly. IT'S NOT A GENRE

  • SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO br00tal!!!!&#&$^#

  • To be completely honest, some indie music is great. I've here indie bands that play better than any band out there. Even though it isn't changed to sound "good" they don't need it changed because they ARE good. Indie means independent for all of the people that think it's a genre of music. It's a style of band. There independents and signed. So get off the internet. The video is horrid.

  • It impossible for indie to die. Unless every band everywhere are signed to major labels, which I don't see happening.

  • relax...

  • so fucking indie

  • this is so fucking inde

  • so?

  • so... fucking inde

  • you guys act like a bunch of black metal fans "this is so fucking indie man"

    fuck.

  • troll'd so bad :/

  • what the fuck are you talking about?

  • use google

  • your mother.

  • why do people have to label anything and everything....? "OMG its sooo indie"...you're queers. a video is a fuckin video.

  • holy indie, so shit

  • hella indie

  • so indie dude

  • dude. this video is so indie.

  • fucking indie video dude, this is great.

  • lol nice super 8 filter in imovie.

  • This video rapes the song with pointlessness.

    And the "This video is so indie" comment by Zombieminion is so inane. Indie is short for "Independent rock". It is NOT an adjective to describe abstract things that contribute to your level of pretentiousness. Comments like those are how dumb people ruin good music by turning it into a style.

  • what an asshole, this IS my first video,y'know?

    lets compare my videos to yours, your videos rape YOUTUBE with pointlessness. Thats saying a lot!

  • The only reason you've got views is because people like the song.  ...You spun the camera around, shot pictures of a bench and walked through the woods.

    Do you honestly believe this is good?

    And if you were to make an honest

    critique about my videos, rather than a childish mirrored insult, that would be something I might care about.

  • what does it even matter saiyanson????

    just minimize the window if this video is as bad as you think it is and listen to the music... there is no need to complain when you could easily avoid it.

    good music, and good video.

  • seriously, you have no reason to have a youtube channel.

  • The video is incredibly indie, stop denying it.

  • This video is so indie.

  • People actually go to /mu/?

    This song is good, it doesn't have to be 'hipster' just because that group of cancer has absorbed it.

  • so funny, you somehow managed to search for this particular song by this particular artist.

  • Fellow /mu/tant here, you are stupid. The song is SO DEEP I mean like mega deep I LOVE YOU JESUS CHRIST JESUS CHRIST I LOVE YOU YES I DO If those are not the awesomest lyrics ever I don't know what is

  • i always laugh when i read this comment, thanx man

  • Welcome bro, keep making these infuckingcredibly indie videos.

  • are this band christian.

  • no, Wikipedia them

  • they arent

    but theres no need for people to thumb down you

  • Do you guys think that Jeff Magnum likes Jesus?

  • i hope hes smarter than that(theirs no such person)

  • WTF browski?
