  • Where can I get an MP3 of this song in high quality audio like this video? The only MP3 I can find is in total shit quality =(

  • I love the bridge

  • this version is verygood... but the ohter... :D

  • i love this version the other one is quite odd

  • king christian was one of the biggest witch burners in europe burning over 400 women at the stake alive !!! so please dont glorify this man

  • @stiggyh

    I don't think it's exactly glorifying him? It's more like about how he did both good and bad things. "Even kings can make mistakes"

  • @tiikeri97 i know ... i just wqnted to mention it ... he also left denmark in bankruptcy after all his wars

  • Comment removed

  • this is so amazing and cool :o

  • The other version from Half the World is Watching is so much better imo. This is great too.

  • Evil office is coming to get you !

  • God mew just warms my heart. Every fucking time.

    All i do is run:)

    Nice song:)

  • like the first version much better.

  • his voice is pretty

  • fifteen sventy seeeeven.

  • Check out Christian King!

  • I wish there was a more high-quality version. :(

  • I find it interesting on how this was based off of King Christian of Denmark ( if I recall correctly, King Christian the II). It is also an amazing piece of work. Go Mew! :)

  • @BlueSakura10 the IV ;)

  • his voice is perfect

  • Somehow associates with time living in Kbh :}

  • @gienaster Is that short for copenhagen?

  • i love this song :3

  • Is there not a other version of this?? Dont care. This is good:D

  • Favorite song from them, which is hard to say!

  • i love it

  • lmao, the end was SO UN FAIR. c'mon, no guns aloud! I'm crackin up hereXD hahahahaha

  • @skatebrothers06 Tjats how mew wants it! And I love them for that :D almost alway bad endings andre frustrating and freaky music vodeos ! :D it fits so well to the music ! love it

  • How did you get your hands on this video?! AMAZING!!!!

  • mmm i preffer the original king christian ( half the world is watching me album) but is mew and is a awesome song xD

  • Anyone know the difference between this and King Christian 2?

  • @tucker9790 KC2 has a different intro, different melody in some places, different rhythm, and some new lyrics. :)

  • @tucker9790 ah, sorry, this version is KC2. So the original KC lacks this intro and bridge and some lyrics. :)

  • this is amazing.

  • does any1 know where i can get this version of the song? the only 1 have is on half the world is watching me, but thats a different version

  • @davidninja20

    it's a b-side

  • Wow. Just wow.

  • how can something that was recorded over 11 years ago still sound in fashion with the music scene??

  • @grapefruitboy Yeah ino what you mean. There are all these new bands like Passion Pit and Phoenix that kind of sound somewhat like mew, but just not as amazing songs. If that makes sense

  • @grapefruitboy because they are what everyone is still trying to live up to. best band ever. my personal beatles.

  • King Christian got his ass whopped by the Swedes. =)

    No seriously, I love Scandinavia and I mean no harm.

    ...but he did. :)

  • Dude we've had like 10 Christians?

  • @Nixpixlejonmix2 Wich one? There are many.

  • @Nixpixlejonmix2

    What Christian are you talking about? Denmark has had 10 kings by the name of Christian :)

  • @Nixpixlejonmix2 i love it too, just think we got free universities, and we get money from the government to go there oh and hospitals are free too

  • i love mew

  • I love them so much!!

    They often save my day!!!

    Greetings from Germany...

  • CopenHHAAAAGaeeen!

    Saturday MoooOOOOOOoorning

  • god Im so fucked

  • Mew is one of the most underestimated bands in the world! Saw them in Hamburg!They are breath-taking!

  • LOVE IT!!!

  • I like the older version better actually.

  • I don't like that talking bit in the old version, ("this is the king speaking,") but both have their... Charms. This is a lot easier to listen to I think. I prefer this.

  • Yeah, well that talking bit was like a failure. This actually grew on me since that last comment, so I take that comment back, but you're right.

  • Their music is deep and wide(3u0)

  • woah whats the album this song is in ???

    i got frengers, and glass handed kites, is this from the new one ?

  • it's from a special edition of frengers :)

  • @Mew1566 It is from Half The World Is Watching Me. You can get it at the iTune Store! :-)

  • Comment removed

  • @Mew1566

    Or from Half The World Is Watching Me.

  • @Mew1566 Ooh, apoligies. that's a different version.

  • @Mew1566 Is the album titled differently? And do you know where to find it?

  • @xxPencilOnPaperxx

    No, its the same. I found it on amazon but it was years ago so no idea if it's still available. But now the song itself is on the japanese version of Eggs are funny, as a bonus track. :)

  • @xxPencilOnPaperxx On iTunes, the album is titled "Half the World is Wathching Me". I think it's a different version but basically the same. Good stuff.

  • @pinkymcfloyd not the same at all, this version is so much better and not to be found ANYWHERE :(

  • It's from "Half the World is wathing me". Mew's second album.

  • watching...

  • Half the World Is Watching Me. :)

  • lol time travel

  • @TronkyLizard not from the new one.its a bit old. but its downloadable.:)

  • @TronkyLizard en el B-Sides tambien la puedes encontrar

  • @TronkyLizard The original is from "Half the world is watching me". I prefer that one, think it sounds the way it is supposed to sound, if you know what I mean...

  • @TronkyLizard This is from the album "Half the World is Watching Me" :)

  • @TronkyLizard This is from the album "Half the World is Watching Me" :)

  • anyone know where to find lyrics

    ?????

  • hm.. i love this version <3 i think its better than the old, original version :) but of course i like the old version too!!

  • This versoin is really good. But I also adore the old, original version. Especially when "King Christian" is talking to you :]

    So sweet. And innocent.

  • This is King Christian! there are two version of it. :)

  • Not only Danish!!

    They sound like "YES" and they are nearly perfect, even in

    their songwriting!

  • I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks they sound like Yes....good analogy! and Mew totally rox!

  • MEW=<3 FROM FINLAND

  • no....you wish

  • we all wish that...isn't it?

  • its from the 'Half The World Is Watching Me' album from 2000......

  • why cant I find this song on spotify?

  • Check out "Koi-Only Then Will We Know", for fans of Mew!

  • I just saw them live yesterday and I can tell you guys, it was totally awesome!

  • This is from their B sides, your going to have to pay a lot to get your hands on it. Thats what i did :)

  • Jeg synes begge versioner af sangen har store kvaliteter på hver deres måde. Især starten af denne version er pragtfuld.

  • They are COMING @ my area!!!!!! YESSSSSSS

  • WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE PA PA PA PA PAM!!! PA PAM!!! PAPAPAPAPAPAPAAPA PA PAPA PAPAAAA !!!! i like this version but that was the essence of the song jajajaja!!! love mew A FRENGER FROM MEXICOO !!! COUL YOU PLEASE COME TO MEXICO MEW PLEASE PLEASE :) SEE YA

  • They will play at Storsjöyran in Östersund (31/7-09).

  • this must be some kind of remix!!

  • Comment removed

  • Loving Mew from Sweden !! 6 mil från Danmark XD

  • Love to Mew from Singapore 3 ;D You'll be surprised how many ppl in S'pore love Mew, myself included!

  • Haha we should make an interest group on facebook or something. I really want the band to come over to Singapore. They don't even air their songs on the local radio. ):

  • Hey, that sounds like a good idea actually :D besides, most of the "trendy" radio stations like Power 98 and 98.7 don't play or appreciate great music anymore, it's really sad ): so let's help promote great music again, we should set up that interest group :))

  • Yeah true. They only air mainstream songs *pukes*

    I'm a little scared that no one would join the group though. Because i only know 0ne other person in school who loves Mew. ):

  • Hey, it's worth a gamble ;) besides you never know until you tried it; for all we know, there are over hundreds of Mew fans in S'pore who love Mew but they are afraid to come out cuz of their friends who love all the lousy mainstream music *gag* that our radio stations dole out every single day :s so this is a great opportunity for them to come out and feel free to talk about Mew :D

    oh yeah, which school are you from btw?

  • lovin mew frum brazill

  • i love mew from Canada (:

  • Hei! Does anybody know which cd the edition of this song is from, 'cause I have four cds and none of them got this version of King Christian,!

    And it's a big problem, when you like this edition better!

    And come to Roskilde Festival, if you like them so much! 'cause they'll be there, playing their songs - inclusive the new cd, that is available this very year!

    Ida, Denmark

  • This version of King Christian is not on their LP's, it's on the "She Came Home For Christmas" single. You could find it on Ebay if you're (very) lucky.

    Or, I could PM it to you if you want.

  • Pretty sure this one's a b-side from the Frengers era.

  • This is just a bonus song on on of there singles

    "She Came Home For Christmas" only obtainable on eBay etc

  • and I love MEW from the philippines

  • Loving the Mew from Mexico!

  • jeg elsker MEW..! :P de er det fedeste danske band der er lavet.. :P

    Love to Mew from Singapore. (:

  • Love to Mew from Singapore 2 :D

  • and love to mew from finland ;P

  • AND LOVE TO MEW FROM MEXICO

  • i love you wayak!!!

  • the different version is off their early album Half The World Is Watching Me. I like this version much better though. It's more developed. I can't help but get a Keane feel from this song.

  • i love mew !! they really rock!

  • yeah yeah there is a different version. :)

    tops song.

  • This song is great.

    I think there is a different version thought? My friend knows it differntly.

    ~~~

    Frenger!

  • 10/10

    perfect song . great

  • I rarely hear this one, but it's great!

  • King Christian, a Danish king of old. It makes me proud to be a Dane to see his name appear in a world known band.

  • excelente banda

  • nice

  • please don't talk spanish guys ^-^;

  • and why's that?

  • YouTube is for all people worldwide. Since English is the main language in the world, it would be best if it's in English so that everyone could understand it ^___^

    I could speak Danish? But I would rather make things easier for some people who can't Danish, and write English instead ...

  • U could speak danish it think it's cool :P but yeah ure right.

  • Please don´t be so stupid guys :)

  • my favorite song with mew!

  • I can't  find the correct lyrics anywhere,

    wtf?

    Although I understand almost every word, but still how stupid is that?

    They are breathtaking n.n

  • Well the video version is different from the album version in many ways.

    Might explain it.

  • Whenever I've looked for this song's lyrics it's always given me the lyrics to the old version, and this is the new one. Maybe that's your problem.

  • de hecho creo que méxico es uno de los países en los que tienen más fans :D

    y al fin vendrán!!! estoy demasiado felíz :D y el disco sale pronto, no se desesperen haha, verán que la larguísima espera valdrá la pena n___n

  • no mms! a k ciudades vienen o k??

  • todavia no se da la fecha oficial verdad?? voten en ocesa

  • no, pero bo ya dijo que si algo era seguro, era que venían :D yo digo que para el verano porque dijeron algo de organizar un tour enel verano y después eso de que vendrían.

    tengo que ahorrar, no me lo puedo perder!

  • amazing band!

  • [Exelente rola, carai ke estos chicos ya se tardaron en grabar nuevo material.]

  • fuck

  • me encanta este grupo, lastima k en mèxico no son tan conocidos, los conoci por i,m wry

    saludos desde monterrey, mexico

    alejandrina

  • ala si!! osea mew es lo maximo ps... tienes buen gusto, que otros te gustan??

  • Cool!Ha. Jonas made this, right? So cute.

  • esta canción siempre me pone de buenas las pocas veces que la escucho.. y mi dia es mas feliz jajaja...... :)

    All i Do is Run.... PAPAPAPAPAP

  • hola, k chido k leo a alguien de mexico k le gusta mew, de donde eres?

  • i have the other version of this...but which is the original one??

  • Can somebody send me this version? I only have the other one, and this sounds much better =)

  • DVDVideoSoft Free Studio is the program you want. Allows you to DL from youtube. Enjoy!

    Btw it turns into mp3.

  • Amazing song.

  • This version is a lot better. The only one was slightly irritating.

  • can any find this verison please , thanks

  • Yeah, I'd like also to have this version of "King Christian". That version on Half of the World is Watching me is bad...

  • I don't think the original one is bad. Both are good to me. I love the harmony in the fisrt version and the end part of the new version. The original 156 seems weider by the way...

  • In my opinion original 156 is better than the one on Frengers.

  • Everyone has his/her own cup of tea, right? I love the latter one and you love the former one. We both love MEW, that's it.

    >>so...my previously comment is gone?

  • Yeah, you are right. Why argue anyway, it only leads to destruction.

  • Que buena rola, grandes lo daneses, son increibles musicos wow!!!!

    como me recuerda esta rola a la Marquesa, esta rola es para sentarte en alguna parte de la marquesa o de Toluca a escucharla

  • ha ha, my name is christian, so I really like this song lol.

  • This is great song, I really like this. Mew is still a great band, but their music on And Glass Handed Kites we're maybe little bit too "Mew" on towards the end.

  • Define too *Mew* xD

  • Well, I felt that if I call 'em too progressive, I would've insulted whole band...

  • are you kidding? They barely ever do that.

  • robot king

  • this version is so muuuuuch better than the original. my favourite! takk..
