  • THE OC

  • I fav this video

  • Mais le coin Sainte-Catherine/Saint-Laurent­, c'est pas La Belle Province ca?

  • @MrBeurb oui c't'en plein ca hahaha

  • Damn good video.

  • C tellement bon ste toune la :D 

  • Sam Roberts, je t'aime! Cette chanson me fait rêver!

  • SAM ROBERTS IS THE BEST! that's all that needs to be said

  • I am Canada, Canada is me, Proud to be, Canadian ;) Eh?

    Je suis au Canada, le Canada, c'est moi, fier d'être, au Canada;) Hein?

  • sam lived in my neighbourhood :D

  • from O.C :D

  • @charles4hl I'm actually in montreal right now :)

  • @melissastorn

    The point of the song is that the speaker cannot sleep, his mind is flooded with thoughts, and this video depicts one of those nights where a sleepless man drifts around town to ease his boredom. The lack of lighting to me depicts that monotony that comes with a night alone. If you really are a producer in Hollywood, take your crap out the door and re-join the mainstream shitpipe you come from. This is a beautiful song with a decent video and I applaud the time and effort from it.

  • sam robert's no sleep> wiz khalifa's no sleep

  • What grade did you get on this? Abso-fucking-lutley nothing happens. You're just walking around a parking lot. And it's so poorly lit (not even in that "poorly lit is the point" kind of way - your eyes end up hurting because you're struggling to see! A for effort though. Next time, have a visual plot that advances. don't take my advice though, I'm just a producer in Hollywood :)

  • @melissastorn He's Canadian.. he doesn't need to do anything.

  • @melissastorn Were you just saying that to be a douche, or what?

  • You do know he's from Montreal right. French is probably his first language.

  • @fierybrunette47 No actually he's a native anglophone of Montreal. Like most of them, he speaks french, but english is really his first and main language. I'm from Montreal myself.

  • @charles4hl

    His French is flawless though. No hint on an accent in English, and I don't hear an anglo accent when he speaks French (but I'm an anglophone).

  • @rishi65 I can clearly hear his accent...

  • The OC and seth not sleeping because of summer and zach.

    Epic!

  • That's how I discover this fucking good song!

  • fuck the oc, jesus christ

  • Great song!

  • This song is awesome, eh?

  • I havent sleep for a week.

  • this video is 1 second to long... awe yeah, nice work though i love sam roberts

  • i love this song, nice vid to zone out too nice stuff

  • the oc!

  • it's good. Tip: Long distance shots don't always go good with music videos.

  • @brettberry23 in some they do, but you're right, they arent all that effective here. I mean, it does create a disconnect in a way, but you want to feel the character's trouble with not sleeping and thats best shown in meds and CUs. (of course only works if you have a really good actor)

  • I always imagined it on a sunny day, a man walking on ste-catherine street, full of people... seems like the french part is forgotten somehow. no offense, the vid is nice :)

  • ah screw, donno if its my computer doing it to this vid when i try to watch it but the pixels mess up. would hvae love to see it though. damn good song.

  • did you fucking film this, fuck man get a hobby, or a decent screenplay budget

  • @ManOfTheYear1991 he took the time to do something while you sat ur ass in front of your screen dissing people on youtube... fuck man get a hobby, or a decent comment once in a while. 160 ppl like the video

  • @jpgda DON'T TALK TO HIM LIKE THAT!!!!! he's man of the year lol :p

  • classic piece :-))) i crushed on the song 3 yrs ago, today it came up to my mind again, and still, touching~

  • We want a fucking show in Mtl <3

  • is he gonna come out with a new album soon?

  • @rkhoja I saw on their website that they were working on a new one :)

  • @rkhoja

    We can only hope. :P

  • 11 people do not like this? come ON!

  • @thebjm1967 11 people dont like the video lol

  • I had front row tickerts to his show once. He's seriously 100x sexier in person! Especially his voice. Personally, I think he sounds better live than he does on his albums. HIs voice is so raw and beautiful. Definitely recomend seeing him in concert. One of the best live performances I've ever seen.

  • @MiseriaCantare2727 mmm AMEN! i agree... ;)

  • @MiseriaCantare2727 agree with you completely, Sam has been my #1 crush for the longest time, his voice is sooooooooo sexy

  • Copyright infringement? lol, just kidding. Good job on the video, everytime I want to hear this song I click on this video. Your pacing could have been a little better but I like the direction you chose to go with. Keep up the good work!

  • best music to come out of Montreal since..... well forever!!! proud to be a montrealer!!!

  • Awesome shirt and movie "The corporation"

  • une fille , jolie , passait tout près de moi , elle arrêtais le temps au coin de sainte-catherine et saint-laurent (suite)... Elle m'a regardé et elle souriait elle m'a fait penser à elle en ce moment , mais comme un vent peut s'en aller mais moi je suis réveiller , ouais moi je suis réveiller .....

  • the video is a bit too dark - although i understand it is taking place very late at night. but i think it really is a very very very good video apart from the brightness. well done.

  • sam roberts is sex to the ears

  • his tee shirt is amazing. its from the documentary "The Corporation" WATCH IT! RESEARCH THE NEW WORLD ORDER!

  • i am so obsessed with this song. cool and seductive

  • well i guess you're right bobchillaxd

    im in that kind of situation at the moment...i know one that can be so bewitching at times. driving me crazy. she just sent me that song.

  • music like this makes my energy skyrocket positevly :P

    i hope that that is something one day every being in the world can relate to.

    life, being as messed up as its gotten,

    is still perfect in every way.

  • my favourite song

  • A girl, beautiful, passed close by me, she stopped time at the corner of st-catherin and st-laurent...

    She looked at me, and smiled, she made me think of nothing in that moment, and like the wind she went away and I awoke...

    The other translations didn't quite capture the creativity.

  • he sounds so good singing in french ^_^

  • BIG TRACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • You need like another story going on to show while hes walking, so as he walks towards the camera it would flash over to another story flash back etc etc,

  • What does he say in french?

  • I live, I live. She came by me She stopped the time on the corner of st-catherine and st-laurent ......... she looked at me and she was smilling. Its like the wind, she went away and i am awake :)

  • a girl... pretty... was passing real close to me... she was stopping the time... at the corner of St-Catherine and St-Laurent (in Montreal)...

    she was looking at me... she was smiling... she makes me think of nothing right now... and like the wind she was leaving... and I am awake, yes I am awake

  • Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Sam Roberts is GOD

  • Love him.

  • Cool video, lots of really good shots too (angle, lighting, etc.), and I love this song. Only thing negative I'll say is you need some plot/substance in the video, I was getting tired of watching him walk and so did he when he took a nap. Keep up the good work though!

  • is there a song that has a similar melody to thisss??? if any 1 can ghelp itd be great, cuz ive herd the melody befroe but not the same lyrics.

  • retour a vega the stills

  • try sam roberts - mind flood

  • ya man it's always been one of my favorites. he always closes with that song.

  • This melody and lyrics are genius. Sam Roberts is one of the greatest songwriters of the last couple generations.

  • This song is so sexy. I love the french/english mix. And it's so authentic. I'm starting to wonder whether I think Sam Roberts is the Cat Stevens of this era??

  • Most probably 'cause he's french canadian

  • because he doesn't know like German...

  • this is fantastic! the kinda videos i like making. might have been cooler if there was someone holding the camera to get less still shots and more movement but other than that, good job.

    make more like this and i just might subscribe! :)

  • Wow..this is beautiful!!! ..just going through as many songs of Sam's as possible on friday night!

  • same but now its sat.

  • its not meant to be amazing its just for an arts class

  • i love this song...n sam roberts

    i remember i used to tease my friend that this was her hangover song lmfao

  • Pretty good,man.Pretty good.

    And great choice of song ;)

  • Kamloops?

  • My fav Sam Robert song fo sure

  • it wouldve been better if u had been lip synching to the lyrics

  • elle arrêtait le temps au coin de sainte-catherine et saint-laurent... :):)

    montréal ♥

  • Thanks for clarifying that!

    I was slightly confused :)

  • Great video, reminds me of the summer I painted my grandmothers house and barns.

    good times!

  • dont care about the video

    but i love the song so i will let it do its thing in the background and listen.

  • favourite song :)

  • just the song of sammy that attracted me instantly! after that i just cannot "quit" him~the unique aura he presents in singing is really different from others, such as this one, retrospect and a little bit gloomy, retrospect, while laidback somehow-even i dont know well about the lyrics, can't help being obsessed with him

  • " passee tous prets de moi..e elle a ferme le temps au coin de st cathrine et st laurent..."

  • wow so many memories..i stil remember the lyrics

  • Canadian and Jamaican girls roc!!!>3

  • is he canadian?

  • mais oui!

  • Hes Canadian bro

  • actually hes from montreal i think

  • Awesome Canadian stuff

  • i luv this song!

  • Dope video and song

  • good song and video! :)

  • cool

  • 10 002nd view.

    so close.

    Anyway, he should sing in French more :)

    Sam est super :D

  • pretty good video

  • sam should sing in french more often, it sounds really good out of him

  • I Love You Sam U Re Grea!!!

  • Being sleepless isn't necessarily emotional. I think this is pretty accurate. Lots of thought and need to move when insomnia kicks in!

  • this video isn't very well made. the camera work is good, but there's no heart in it. he's just walking around. that's all he does. walk around. you're relying on the music to make the video seem emotional. that makes for a very poor video. nicely executed, but poorly thought through. all he does is walk around.

  • respect ...trop bon :)

  • Did you get any promotional funds from The Corporation? heh

  • I love listening to this song when I cant sleep (like right now) Nice vid. I think it was a bit dull, could have done something different then just walking, though it does give that alone feeling.

    Anyways. it made me want to get up and go walk around, haha.

  • this is a friggin sweet song is it off the first one...i only have chemical city...

  • no its from we were born in a flame

  • aa fan grymt bra

  • very good

    very good
