Born Ruffians - "Hummingbird" (high quality)

[JasmineBaby05]

I heard this on skins. The awesomeness of the song brought me here. Whats wrong with that?

[jdmk20guy]

Sounds like two door cinema club a lot !

[Paigetheawseome]

@jdmk20guy No, it sounds like Born Ruffians.

[Paigetheawseome]

The grass & the daisies Think a lot more of the days than you & You're you The walls of the maze Know the will more than the way than you & You're just you The buttons on my phone Know I hate to be alone When I dial, I'm in denial But now at least I know Where it is I have to go I need supplies before I arrive "You're running down my thigh," she said "He's such a wonderful guy," she said "There's pride in wanting to die, I think I'll give it a try,"

[RamonaFlowers23]

@samr2411 Good choice :)

[Janbees]

My mouse brought me here.

[RamonaFlowers23]

Oh, its my future husband. Hey there Luke ;)

[TREVtheMAN180]

I saw them twice last week, got to hang out with the bassist, and my friend caught Lukes sweater.

[NeverShoutChelkie]

FLY AWAY LITTLE HUMMINGBIIIIIIIIRRRRRD

[AshlynSara]

My dad is a taxi driver and he had them as passengers I was super mad he didn't get their autographs

[AshlynSara]

My dad drives a cab and he had them as his passengers I was super jealous of my dad

[loqloqIoqloqIoq]

Gay

[xoxKaulitzTwinsxox]

CANADA REPRESENT!

[matilderada]

where did these guys went to? can't believe they haven't released anything new since when? last year?

[nickstekar]

@matilderada I can at least tell you they're still around, they're on tour with Tokyo Police Club right now.

[DevanHoldaway]

@nickstekar I saw them in Toronto on friday and they said they're going to start a new album this monday!

[918JAmeS918]

@Meoku I love that you can call someone an illiterate and use the wrong form or your you're almost in the same sentence. What a dumb ass haha

[meoku]

@obadets3 and you sir, are an illiterate scumbag. I bet your a minority too, haha.

[123snowpatrol]

I saw you at Summer Sundae, you were great, where's your next GIG ?

[meoku]

Like if "Skins" brought you here

[obadets3]

@meoku You sir, are a faggot.

[HellyJellyxx]

i'd thought i'd say my friend brought me here

i like that friend, she cheered me up with this song

to be honest, if you've found this song, you've done something right

[walshgre1]

@HellyJellyxx douchebag

[HellyJellyxx]

@walshgre1 fanx means alot xxxxxxx

[Nicholosity]

these videos are jokes i need a life- they die in the end, in this one they are puking glitter.

[MCRlooove]

i discovered this band because of skins, but they're just amaaaazing and every single song is perfect :)

[TApipher]

Born Ruffians brought me here.

[Madlolbears]

anybody know what other indie/alternative songs were played in the clubs in skins? throughout the show. cuz i remember alot of great live music. and none of it is easy to find on here :/

[clarepies]

@Madlolbears go on the website, it should give you a list of songs played in each episode

[killinunderoath]

I haven't heard this song in such a long time, I forgot how awesome it was!

[naruto29180]

Skins brought me here and i'm so glad, this is one of the best indie songs I have heard.

[telourdas]

@naruto29180 skins brought me here too!

[laidesman115]

good catchy song

[jayman691]

The Orange advert, Skins & The Inbetweeners brought me here 4 the 1st tym. Now this has been 1 of my fav songs ever since

[mrcraggle]

The Orange ad from a few years ago brought me here

[obadets3]

I knew about this song before our universe was in existence.

[DestaMatla]

... Is it forbidden to both love Good music AND Skins?

Cuz I don't see the problem XD

[jellosquishier]

I'm here because of SKINS and I don't care that you don't care!

[BackBreakingBass]

So you watch skins? Who actually gives a fuck.

Music is about talent and skill, not popularity and media. Get over yourselves.

[nolankochyo]

I don't know what skins is... I just love Born Ruffians...

[1saxophoner]

this song was on skins?

[MrScrutts]

Guys,

This was first played in various episodes (Series 3) on a TV comedy in the UK called the Inbetweeners. The production team decided we were keen to provide various unknown bands int he UK with primetime airplay.

We broadcast the first episode to feature this track well over eighteen months ago.

Having met the Ruffians recently and chatted about their link with our show and the spotlight it threw on their music, I can confirm "NeverShoutNick1" has a lot to learn.

Props to Skins tho

[reece9502]

I know it from the inbetweeners

[paraplegicgiraffe]

what is "skins?"

[MrSlurpeeez]

@paraplegicgiraffe A british TV show, its pretty interesting.

[carnifex714]

@paraplegicgiraffe its on the tip of a penis

[mguygh]

iskins was only a way for the band to get bigger...aint no harm in that!! even though skins is shit, im an inbetweeners man

[NeverShoutNick1]

Media is a form of promotion so therefore why the hell does it matter if you heard this song in Skins?

I'm a musician, I wouldn't give a damn if someone heard my music on the outro of an episode of effing Nancy Drew as long as their listening...So why does it matter? Fans are fans...

This episode of skins however is so sad..Chris was my favorite :(

[clarepies]

this makes me think of cassie

[thefoxesmateforlife]

haha this looks like so much fun

[abeshachiqmahlet]

Monkey Man <3

[fernanda9839]

fuck it for chris

[shukinal]

high quality my ass..

[nadawada98]

Damn what a fit band. True Skins brought me here..but that doesn't matter. I'm just here to appreciate this fuck awesome band;)

[MrMejshek]

Skins season 2 episode 9 :D

[carnifex714]

i don't even like indie but this song is one of my favorites

[DecoyCruz]

i don't care who knew or didn't know this before skins, im just thankful i did hear this on skins.. i love this song and skins

[ipuntbabies94]

I'm dizzy.

[captaingoatbeard7]

Formulaic plop

[anchorman158]

THIS SONG WAS JUST ON ONE OF THOSE ADULT SWIM COMMERCIAL BREAKS AND I FREAKED OUT

[NewWaveBoss]

@anchorman158 What?! It was? Find the promo and link me! I've got to see for myself.

[anchorman158]

@NewWaveBoss i cant find it anywhere, sorry brah

[Cuomosexual96]

luuke<3

[alicatesrosas]

skins <3

[berrykari]

Dumb shets. 

[KirstyMmmm]

I heart this song bigggg time!!!

[ikeeagles2014]

Did anyone notice that each hummingbird matches one of the guys shirts.....nice...

[reidcbcampbell]

Seeing these guys was one of the best show's i've witnessed. Surprised how little luke spoke, oh well, amazing band, amazing live.

[tnsprtfaQ]

If you love The Inbetweeners soundtrack look for M&M music page on FB, everything from british indie to french house, or mark this like a spam and enjoy the Born Ruffians... Greetings from Bath.

[henrygreenmusic]

they are like a breath of fresh air. It's what we all need right now!

[zombiemannequinrobot]

Who the fuck cares how people got here as long they got here? Born Ruffians are probably glad that people heard the song on a show they like and enjoyed it enough to investigate further because most people hear music on shows and don't think anything of it and they certainly don't think enough to search for it. If you got here because of Skins that's fine, at least you gave enough of a shit about the song to search for it which means it's a good song.

[cgmlrawr]

this appeared on skins?

[Elcuhcuy]

What's Skins?

[Tsaky95]

@Elcuhcuy Skins is kinda like the best TV-Show ever, if ur a teenager :)

[MiniBeatle11]

I heard it on the orange advert, therefore i dont know about everything before anything ever happened

[25Atticus]

@poolpimper You're right, I should have clarified. Canada is also home to other great bands such as Tegan and Sara, The Rural Alberta Advantage, Picastro, etc. I think music should be enjoyed regardless of where it originates from. :)

[thinkbloo]

@25Atticus

Exactly, if you had no idea where the music is from would it make any difference? (:

[25Atticus]

They're from Canada mate. Just gives us all another reason to respect canadians! :)

[plennon94]

what country are these lads from just curious

[SeveralFatChikz]

fuck when they played this song lastnight i jizzed

[yesthatrobert]

If it wasn't for the UK Skins I would not have discovered this song and would not have discovered this wonderful band.

Thank God because this band is amazing and I don't know what I'd be listening to if I hadn't come accross Born Ruffians

[onthewaterr]

I knew about this song before it was invented.

[carnifex714]

@onthewaterr your so hip 

[kekids22]

@onthewaterr that doesnt make sense..

[MegaHero71]

Has anyone else noticed that they kind of sound like Vampire Weekend and a bit like the Beetles?

[ANNOYINGGAMEGUY]

listen to NOVELS! Guys from Tokyo police club, TIN STAR ORPHANS and Will Currie and the Country French joined together and made a 5 record Ep! which is awesome!

[scoobyy567]

@ANNOYINGGAMEGUY they have a facebook/myspace or smth you can link me to for their stuff?

[thumbtack1985]

their new album is unreal , they really came in to their own have a much more unique sound

[Teeco85]

vuela pequeño colibri

[1reemb]

they sound like the jonas brothers!

[1reemb]

@1reemb lawl.

[JustAnotherWildThing]

What is up with everyone comparing bands?

Shut up. Seriously it's annoying.

[nawbruv]

i can't stand that this was on skins...

[AustinHelpsYou]

[XDmarcsyoXD]

[ddanhall]

[Haitigotpwned]

lightweights, i remember my first hummingbird..

[ajme225]

Knew about this song before they put it on skins..

[NastyPoopOnMyShoe]

@ajme225 You must be proud.

[HughBalzac]

@ajme225 I heard about Skins before they were put on Born Ruffians

[GeorgeBerger6969]

@ajme225 congrats you want a lolly?

[AlisaOfzo]

@ajme225 it doesn't matter how you get to know a song, the only thing that matters is liking it. Because if you don't like this song, there's obviously something wrong with you.

[sirus1benjamin]

@ajme225 Do you wear clear lense Ray-Bans too?

[TheKatoom]

@ajme225 Congrats you hipster. I now think more of you, you're just so damned cool...

[petwahhh]

@ajme225 cool story bro

[mguygh]

@ajme225 so did i but thats the thing they put it on skins so people would look it up and listen to it as it is a good song ya tit

[sjpbuckley]

@ajme225 who cares?

[deltaofwar]

@sjpbuckley Obviously not the fags who watch skins?..

[sjpbuckley]

@deltaofwar actually, i dont even know what skins is.. is it a movie? regardless who gives a rats ass where you find or dont find music. It really doesnt matter.

[WalkingTravisty]

@ajme225 Wow! That's so impressive! You must be better than all those lame people who found out about it after they heard it on Skins!

[zombiemannequinrobot]

@ajme225 Gold star for you. Would you like a cookie as well? Perhaps, Obama can hold a press conference too or maybe instead of Columbus day we should celebrate the day you got here before everyone else.

[jhvscs]

@ajme225 Well done, you want a cookie?

[nvermeer1]

@ajme225 wtf is skins????



[alcyonekris]

@ajme225 Hipsters all over this video if you got 70 thumbs up.

Seriously, enjoy the band's success, airhead.

[FALUHSEE]

@ajme225 & I knew about supercool hipster swag before hipster fags

[urbanninja66]

@ajme225

Oh ya i geuss you were into them before they mainstreem (said with distaste) right? ya fuck off cunt

[jimvdveen]

@ajme225 HipsterJunk.jpg

[Silva1n1]

@ajme225 Knew it before you knew it

[MrTravelslight]

@ajme225Well done your fucking awesome... Wait no, tedious. If skins had never have been made this would still of probably been heard by a couple hundred thousand peps. YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL.

[TheBenDiMaio]

@ajme225 This was on skins?

[IsDanielaVilla]

Skins brought me here.

[Dunkzzz95]

Inbetweeners <3

[AlexWFilms]

Born Ruffians make music that you can dance too, dance to it, and lady gaga is sick. look up poker face acoustic

[PadraicPodgeKelly]

loving the 2 hurls against the wall :)

[funnygrup]

skins is a dumbass show..

[atomicsharpiie]

@funnygrup Skins US may be, but not Skins UK. Skins UK is an amazing show that I highly recommend.

[Person124]

so many background hipsters.

[M0NK3YB4LLB0I]

Listen and stop bitching like children.

[TylorDeal]

These guys aren't even that good....Certainly no Dr. Dog

[allyouneedislove37]

theyre wearing red yellow and blue shirts. ya. yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[lemon78644]

@TheAudreyLang -- more like THOSE bands are like THESE guys, do a little research. Born Ruffians were around before those guys were, So it should be more like Tokyo Police Club and Vampire Weekend sound like Born Ruffians

[desmondpwns]

@lemon78644 so you're saying that a band that wouldn't have even heard of born ruffians before piecing it together came out stole their sound? indie music sounds the same because they use the same basic chords duh.. its fucking pointless to say one band came first who gives a fuck they're all pretty mediocre anyways. imho vampire weekend is the best of the 3 because they know how to use a good bassline in a song to make it catchy

[Joanna7Bananas]

@desmondpwns

born ruffians' bass lines are sooooooooo much better than vampire weekend's.

just sayin.

[bluesman332]

@Joanna7Bananas born ruffians everything is better than vampire weekend

[aus5892]

@lemon78644 Who cares, these guys sound better than both of them anyway

[abermen]

@lemon78644

Its not like Born Ruffians formed in 1998 or something, they have all been around for about the same amount of time. They all have a similar sound, you don't need to freak out because someone says BR sounds like VPW instead of the other way around. Its not a put down.

[RHIANNAKM]

@lemon78644 meeh they all came around and pretty similar times. They're all just unintentionally part of the same sound movement or something.

[deltaofwar]

@lemon78644 Joshua Graham and whatever will guy (first time listening to them, i came from listening to novel their joint venture) are friends and have been since high school, so we shouldn't be fighting, we should be saying, well Two people who are friends would have a bands that sound similar, or, The Toronto music scene is good. I think Tokyo is better and will have more success though so it matters little who came first. 

[jshanye101]

@lemon78644 I can't find the comment that originally said that, but even if Born Ruffians did come after TPC and Vampire Weekend (which they obviously didn't) how in the hell do any of those three bands sound the least bit alike? What an idiot.

[zombiemannequinrobot]

@jshanye101 Luke and Ezra have very similar voices sometimes and how can you not see how they are alike in some ways? I'm not saying they are exactly alike, and I prefer BR to VPW but you can't deny that some songs are kind of similar to one another.

[laydeebuffness]

memories of SKINS :D

[indierockplaylist]

SOLID

[TheAudreyLang]

Vocals a bit too much like Tokyo police club, the Rhythms a bit too much like Vampire Weekend....

[siimpleman]

@TheAudreyLang Born Ruffians existed before both of those bands

[allyouneedislove37]

@TheAudreyLang Cool story bro you should put that on a video of people watching who care

[bobby58585]

@TheAudreyLang

other people have already said it but yeah, look it up.

[heyiamtara]

@TheAudreyLang yes, but all three bands are amazing. you obviously cant handle their amazingness ;D

[neilandpatstop40]

@TheAudreyLang

vampire weekend used to open for these guys, you tool.

[billiesrus]

The first part of the main riff sounds like Remember me by British Sea Power

[lilneezzyy6969]

This video interests me more than the song. Just sayin.

[psychedelity]

now THAT's what I call random :)

[Nox568]

OH MY GOD FACEBOOK IS DOWN, WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!

btw, songs cool.

[trexmadi]

in love with this song.

[tasminisassmouth]

[Koejopley]

[repo1911]

Seriously I've listened to this song about 40 times in a row today. All their other songs are rubbish though.

[angelrangel91]

Great song heard it on Inbetweeners
