Kasabian - Empire

[mywilkie]

can't get more amazing than this

kasabian forever

[imnotgivingmynametou]

It's the Crimean War... That's obvious ¬¬

[superkeith1996]

BEST SONG EVER! LIKE IF U AGREE"!!!

[NessunoHH]

WE'RE ALL WASTING AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

Mornin'! :)

[BAAAAAACON]

0:43 to see some spinal juice :L

[BMXchris100]

@deadlydog100 then it is the Crimean war, it was basically Britain+France vs Russia. Plus not all british army wore red coats, i THINK these guys could be royal marines

[BMXchris100]

@deadlydog100 no its about the british empire or the Crimean war, the british flag the guys holding is a clue 

[castlekingside28]

@deadlydog100 not the Russian revolutionits its mostly depicting the Napoleonic wars.

[BasilFawlty4444]

@castlekingside28 uh-uh its the crimean war.

perfect example of a pointless war

[castlekingside28]

@BasilFawlty4444 ah yes I think it is. but why are they carrying the union flag but not wearing a red coat?

[CaptainFryingpan]

@castlekingside28 Looks like they're dressed as hussars, red coats were for infantry. From 1:40 onwards, where they're walking into the cannon fire, would be their version of the charge of the light brigade. (can't get much more pointless than that) On foot instead of on horse, because I guess playing an instrument while hanging on to a charging horse is a bitch and a half to film. :P

[133tboy]

SPREAD THE FUCKING WORD. IM FUCKING TIRED OF US ROCKERS TURNING AGAINST EACHOTHER OVER FUCKING SUB GENRES. I DONT GIVE A FUCK IF UR EMO, METALHEAD, GOTH, PUNK, OLDSCHOOL OR WHAT.

WE R FUCKING ROCKERS, AND WE R TURNING AGAINST EACHOTHER OVER FUCKING SUB-GENRES. AND LOOK WAT HAS HAPPENED!? ROCKERS HATING EACHOTHER. AND HIP HOP AND POINTLESS, BORING, NON CREATIVE MUSIC IS TAKING OVER.FUCK THAT, WE NEED TO STICK TOGETHER. WE ALL GO TO SHOWS FOR THE SAME REASON TO SUPPORT WHAT WE LOVE thumbup

[Gozzeh]

@133tboy Chill Bro, k?

[obsessed327]

Loving the Wilfred Owen reference at the end<3

[SuperAntunez]

@missfranzfan They are tired of war and started retreating when they have been ordered to attack, that's why his own army shot Tom Meighan.

For those interested in history I think that's the Crimean War, Russians (see the words in cyrillic in the cannons) vs English

[wullieohara]

the modern day stones fuck the public

[caleb4080]

Who would of thought it... Guitars, cheaper than having guns I suppose =)

[caleb4080]

Who would of thought it... Guitars cheaper than having guns I suppose =)

[missfranzfan]

I think he his group may have disobeyed orders or done something teasonous because they are all in the same uniform and old guy/general is the same one that gives the order to shoot as the one that gives the orders to the runner boy

[o0mary0o]

I love the singer's dimples!

And....men in uniforms.......grrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrruauuuuuuuurrrrrrr!!!!

[missfranzfan]

love kasabian love the vid

[xoxosmileyhappyxoxo]

this song is epic, i luv kasabian soooo much :)

[EzPz8]

@frankiller16 I think It's happening again you know

[mickyoldskool]

the reality of war back then....

[98diggers]

i love kasabian :)

[MyMrMoustache]

i'd love to do that with my guitar... Walk in the middle of a battle field while playing it.

[mrEpIcZz2011]

20 dislikes they better het running ..

[amelialennon]

that runner had a very beautiful face

[Quepedoporquenoentra]

Damn! The kid was so hurry to deliver that document...

I bet it was the next Kasabian's contract with BMG.

Whatever...

Great fucking band!

[maxyboi1000]

aw man... he got blood in the milk!

[kasabianbass]

Bands aren't in the charts like they used to be. We need people to download good songs like CAGE THE ELEPHANT-Shake Me Down. Their new song is at 99 in the UK top 100. So underated if you ask me when rubbish artist who make lazy music get top spots. This band is just an example but if you like proper ROCK like i do please download these type of tracks! :D

[jamieomalley1]

@kasabianbass thats just a different type of rock, there beat isn't as good, nor is the compisition, if you ask me, there okay though. i really do not see how they are more of a rock band than kasabian though.

by the way i think it's kinda more lazy to use a load of gain to disguise the fact that your not really playing that much guitar. i only listened to that one song though, maybe their other stuff is different.

[kasabianbass]

@jamieomalley1 WAT THE HELL! im not saying that i was saying because most modern music is terrible when u come accross a track that is good download it so the charts could change for better.

[jamieomalley1]

@kasabianbass sorry mate i read your comment wrong, i read it like this song(e.g. kasabian empire) was just an example, i agree with you that there are lots of awful, undeserving songs in the charts.

[kasabianbass]

@jamieomalley1 lol thanks for agreeing with me!

[EzPz8]

@jamieomalley1 99% of the top 40 now is either black or women...white men and guitars are basically banned from it :-/

[jamieomalley1]

@EzPz8 i know its disgraceful, they have no real musicians in it anymore, all this sythesised stuff is awful !!!

[GeordieLord]

@EzPz8 Yeah it's a joke. Though in a way it's good not having pop fans in to good music, just look what happened with Kings of Leon.

[coyel]

@EzPz8 it's because the vast, vast majority of white-guy indie music sucks. i mean... there's a bunch of good chillwave, but it's not all that mainstream

[EzPz8]

@coyel but even Kasabian doesn't get played that much or stay high in the album charts for ages, instead its stuff like Adelle :/

[coyel]

@EzPz8 aye, true... i recon they could've stayed in the charts better by becoming some horrible anthem-churning festive band

so it's good they're still making interesting music at least

[TheMightybooshrock82]

Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori, I know what it means but I can't remember xD!

[jamieomalley1]

@TheMightybooshrock82 it means- it is sweet and proper to die for ones country

[thebestguyinthewoful]

@zombiekicker

[thenazipanda]

Anyone know where I could get one of those dandy uniforms(like the courier was wearing)? Kasabian cover band needs some authenticity :D

[cauza79]

@thenazipanda

ask some fashion student or junior taylor out for a portfolio.. and get quality makings that both of you'll die to get noticed. plus everyone needs to make some extra bucks these days! btw are you based in london?

[kierand0613]

@AlfieEngland100 i shot the runner

[ColdShaunV2]

What happens here, does he betray the British or something, and he gets shot by us at the end.

[AlfieEngland100]

@ColdShaunV2 yer he gets shot be his side,the british, because he didnt want to attack and was just walking away from it all

[ColdShaunV2]

@AlfieEngland100

Thanks. :D

[provobastard]

[xXPowningPiercyXx]

If we need to balance things out then maybe you can jump of a fucking cliff!

[waferthin99]

[xXPowningPiercyXx]

Good look in the army as well, just don't start any new wars.

What a fucked up world we live in...

[waferthin99]

[ryanhickers]

Great song. War is pointless, isn't it? Hence the lyrics, Stop! Wer'e all wasting away.

[ryanhickers]

@ryanhickers I mean Stop! it's all happening again. Wer'e all wasting away.

[MultiJavi93]

100% INDIE!!!!!!!

[fibbrokkio]

Kasabian...wow

[HalfordNick]

Awe inspiring song!

[hopebgood]

Amazing video and song. Kasabian are carrying the flag for British music nowadays.

[maybuty]

@hopebgood wat about muse?

[AlfieEngland100]

okay who shot the runner

[SkCandy09]

War is necessary to cleanse large populated states of unwanted, and otherwise, welfare spongers! Cool song!

[TheUndecidedStudio]

One word.... EPIC

[johnlennonfan37]

And it looks like Tom's gonna eat that letter xD

[BernardByrne95]

Carlsberg don't do music videos but if they did.......stuff it we couldn't beat this!

[SergioPizzornoTevez]

oh no! Tom's dead! :'(

[ht6501]

No, It's only a video.......it's not real!

[johnlennonfan37]

If I could go back in time, I would enrol myself in the army, then sing that song, and then get shot like Tom! That would be immense xD

[johnlennonfan37]

@spudmondo Problem? xD

[bloodmercs]

@johnlennonfan37 And thus the I.Q of the country would raise.

[cj2gers]

NOOOOO THE MILK!!!!!!!!

[thirdlegUK]

@cj2gers that aint milk ;)

[kirkwallboy]

Possibly one of the finest mixture of a fine tune and a moving video. The lead singer guy definitely has the looks to make it as a film star!

[johnlennonfan37]

Does anyone else wanna scream STOP!! when Tom's about to get shot?

[MEEs1ab]

@johnlennonfan37 no i went lawlz

[johnlennonfan37]

@MEEs1ab xD

[Kraken2681994]

[Intrusive124]

[shehan117]

[MrOtaheite]

who gives a shit if rock isnt dominating the charts? rock was never about dominating the charts, its about expression and passion, two things that computers will NEVER have.

[kellie3079]

tom meighan is gorgeous in this video!!! best kasabian song of mine and love the vid.

[olicarr]

[indiegirl24]

[yellafella12]

[kurtvonschleicher]

@yellafella12

[epiczelitezZz]

poor kid :(

[hungerguty]

love the way that the guy plays the guitaur woth a cello bow

[PikeySpikey123]

This was the first song + Video I saw from Kasabian. I saw it on the first day it came out on MTV. I'm not into indie rock that much but god, this has to be my first choice every time. Kasabain really does equal Win. :)

[TheRoboteer]

nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnooooooooooooo the milk! anyways epic song epic band

[StephenFiorentini]

new album please

[AnnabelJade18]

Best song and video -ever-

[MrWootinator]

kasabian are truly one one of the best acts on the scene

[conorruane33]

who eva directed on this vid is a genius

[shootmybum]

if their were a kasabian greatest hits it would include: fire, underdog, empire, club foot, proccess beats, lsf, where did all the love go, shoot the runner and vlad the impaler.

[DeathChipmunk]

The Milk!

NOOOO

[89Twiglet]

brilliant song :) much love for kasabian :)

and wow, there're some kinda ott comments on this video, reading through, at points the comments stop being about empire, and just criticise other people for the music they listen to. in all honesty, those people can listen to what they want, and its not up to anyone else to tell them they cant or have a go at them for it, because at the end of the day, you listen to what you like and they listen to what they like. or am i mistaken?

[rockprid3e723]

awkward march after he dies XD

[dana89elvis]

Kasabian war.

[Ashleyyesho]

how could someone dislike this video? or song?

[ruinawish]

@Ashleyyesho Maybe because they sound like a carbon copy of the Arctic Monkeys.

[jamii192]

@ruinawish You do know that Kasabian was around before them right? Idiot.

[DubSanta]

"load of shit that's what" Dude stfu,Others watch exactly what they LIKE maybe not what you like but what they do. I listen to a whole different music genre but guess what I'm here listening to this? Dumbass.

[XxMasonnn]

@DubSanta .... Shut up.

[bluelava12]

@DubSanta fucking bastard, do you like war?

[liketammysaids]

The message of this song is right...war is such a waste!

[bigbobabc123]

this video is quality

[TONILOLZ]

we're all wasting away

[shootmybum]

They didn't go all through that to get you great deal on your car insurence!

[LoraaCharlotte]

i LOVE this song. i think he looks rather good looking in this video too. he kinda reminds me of Gerard butler in a odd way

[2009indieboy]

this song reminds me of when i broke up with my girlfriend, the way we were always fighting and when it had all calmed down it would HAPPEN AGAIN glad i got out of that one :D and 2:10 reminds me of when me and my friends were walking away from the psychopathic bitch :)

[DarkVoidize]

@2009indieboy Awesome description. Your epicness rating has gone up 10%, provided you played Empire in the background.

[deadgent]

WAR = poor working class kids go to die while rich fat cunts stuff their bank accounts.

[SoldierofFortune07]

@deadgent That is life in the capitalist world as we know it.

[RichieCarvaliho]

the emotional moment at the beginnig, IS war, lets end war with peace, no?

[Raptor015]

That cymbal at the start sounds fucking awesome.

[19SMC96]

i know its beside the point, but i reckon if generals from those times looked back at their battles i reckon theyd realise how awful their tactics were, although quite effective

[shadz451]

STOP

SAID ITS HAPPENING AGAIN

WE'RE ALL WASTING AWAY

WE'RE ALL WASTING AWAY!!

[VitorCroni22]
