GIRLS | HELLHOLE RATRACE

[crazyninjajunglekat]

GOD DAMN, stop all this talk about hipsters and shit.. WHO GIVES A FUCK! This is great music! just shut up and enjoi it! :)

[TheGuyPhillips]

I'd rather be a "hipster" than be a gangster.

[1001orpheus]

@TheGuyPhillips A "gangster" or a gangster?

[DinofFire]

Take note that this song is about two years old, before you hipsters came along.

[crossi1016]

@DinofFire since when have hipsters only been around for 2 years? dumb comment.

[DinofFire]

@crossi1016 In the past two years they have been popularized. Dumbass.

[1001orpheus]

@crossi1016 I think he meant that "hipsters" are jumping on the bandwagon by liking the song, while "true fans" liked the song the second the song was released. Something like that?

[GtrRival]

@DinofFire get out of ur nazi cave u call a retirement home and get with the new world it isnt the 60s anymore

[DinofFire]

@GtrRival I wouldn't be on the computer if I thought it was the 60's, now would I?

[tommynookah]

@DinofFire pffft i don't believe you heard it two years ago. just saying.

also, why are you trying to deny people good music? who cares when people discovered it? do whatever the hell you want to be happy and stop labeling everyone, for fuck's sake.

[situationcritical22]

good song though, but cmon, no one likes a hipster

[stefanmorrow615]

This video is popular on Tunis

[1001orpheus]

Beautiful...Great video. There's some honesty here! You'll have to know.

[MrCkevr]

how much does he sound like costello. me gusta

[Kleasone]

i can't tell who is a boy, who is a girl in this video

[Kleasone]

the lyrics are so stupid :(

[patrickdenneyto]

I'm glad that I can say what I feel like on this board, because it's literally the same as everyone else. This is an insanely beautiful song, with a video that captures and even enhances the meaning of the song. Christopher Owens, thank you.

[evmercury]

This is one of the few songs that manages to exactly express my actual feelings. It's so beautifully emotional. Love it so much.

[unknown9035]

heartbreakingly fucking beautiful, exactly how i feel now.

[bforce909]

This song really helped me out.

[felipeqwert]

i dont see/feel the music and lyrics in this video.

[Basilkcdecaux]

Was this vid shot in Korea??

[digitalarturo]

@grayjeens and also that you need an english class.. lol

[TheFucKinG2CeNTS]

does anyone else notice that they use their friends that are girls in all the videos? thats cooooool :)

[TheDandielions]

i wish all their songs were like lust for life...

[hrhreinn]

íslendingar fullir í San Fran.

[hrhreinn]

og lame ass,,, og ömurlegt.



[hrhreinn]

vá ekkert smá dapurt.

[lovejunkie5000]

...and this sounds like jason pierce wrote it

[lovejunkie5000]

sometimes christopher's singing sounds like efrim menuck's singing for a silver mt zion

[Eoinposse]

What, there's only two of them?

[electrikbuez]

fucking love it! yeah

[FoxydoK]

Beautiful.

[psychomaji]

Lifes not too bad.

[thanaprom]

I hate my life

[acorbz1]

Sam?

[HungryHugo999]

< 3

[KennyNekomura]

Como para llorar de felicidad...

[domesticcaribou]

this is what i imagine it was like to hang out with jack kerouac and neal cassady and all their friends

[vuvaladusi]

by the way what's up with everyone always saying "hipsters hipsters hipsters" blah blah blah. don't you realize that that word means nothing? it is not a style or fashion? can you define any specific haircut or clothing style that is universal to a "hipster"? are you just jealous because you wear boring clothes and aren't interesting? your "hipsters" are this generation's visionary artists just like dylan and the band and the beat poets of yesteryear.

[TremulantMannequin]

@vuvaladusi i agree with you up until beat poets. that shit is just the worst.

[LukeShetler]

@vuvaladusi The way I see it is that hipsters are people who attempt to be artistic and intelligent through fashion and taste. They are trendy motherfuckers who try to present an image. Some of the boldest dressers I know are totally untalented and unintelligent.

They are turning beautiful things into a fad. Of course, our definitions of hipster may be totally different. It's like 'emo.' Some people think that anything expressive is emo. Others think of a certain style and genre of music as emo

[sharkxattackk]

@LukeShetler you sound like an idiot lol

[LukeShetler]

@sharkxattackk I don't know if somebody who says, 'you sound like an idiot lol,' with no grammatical sense at all can tell me that I sound like an idiot.

Maybe if you elaborated I could concede your point.

[sharkxattackk]

@LukeShetler oops

[grunntalll]

@LukeShetler no dude, fuck that sharx guy. you'respot on. it's a pretty pretentious thing.

[grunntalll]

@vuvaladusi haha, not everyone dressing interesting is interesting, by far. there is so much pretentiousness going on there it can be sickening, ofcourse there are people who are for real, but far to less.

[bethanylovecats]

@vuvaladusi I would say 'hipster' is more of an attitude than a style...

[situationcritical22]

@vuvaladusi haha keep thinking that u hipster douche

[YThorr]

@situationcritical22 lol

[vuvaladusi]

track mark at 2:41... ew

[BikeMeAustin]

@vuvaladusi Yep, could've done without that.

[Poodle3d]

Faltó el sexo! jajaja

[TheGutti93]

this guy is so talented

[TremulantMannequin]

this song reminds me of the song The Man In Me by Bob Dylan

[rainbowneznarf]

LOVE this band!!!!

[Kago6267]

This song is so awesome.

[radted411]

this is sooooo fucking beautiful.

new album is fucking beautiful too.

life is fucking beautiful.

[0Kimchi0]

@radted411 agreed 100%

[Kals33]

@radted411 That was fucking beautiful.

[michaux6000]

allways love life and we can make great music like this, love the band i got the lp.

[19qwerty19]

great band, great music, but all their videos are so fucking pretencious, beautiful hipster girls smoking and jumping in slow motion everywhere

[klacker47]

@19qwerty19 yeah i agree love this band so much but all the video's are bull. Morning light is especially unbearable

[Musicasaurus]

I don't wanna cryyyYyyYYyy, but this video and song makes me feel so sad. Why Girls? Why!?

[cleancutfun4]

mmmm love this song. so sad and sweet.

[cobybcdude]

This sounds like Buddy Holly got dumped and started drinking a lot. Fucking gold.

[idis1abad]

It's hard to believe that Chris is freaking 30! He seems younger

[altobiotero]

1:00 lovely eyes...

[fatchickinla]

Great song, lots of Elvis Costello influence. Love the guitar.

[Spiralminds]

This is a jewel.

[rohbotsinlove]

whenever i'm down i listen to this song and everything gets better. i swear, it's magical.

[ycanada]

I hate it when you hear a depressing song and you think they are singing about you.

[luckliberty]

the way in which song with each feeling explain you will but its great, great feeling

[cobwebsofthesky]

I am utterly in love with absolutely everything about this.

[artman4444]

be kind, please share your drugs

[psychomaji]

0:00 I want that dollar. I would also like to make use of Chris Owen's brian. Please.

[liina000]

i like 3:45-3:50, 5:16, 5:27, 5:36-5:48 : )

[IzzyWonka]

This video is fuckin' gold, its amazing

[pupucower]

i dont know why.. but ive always thought they were british.. such a britpop pulp-ey feeling to it.

[DougglesMagnificent]

@pupucower they dont sound british at all. i love pulp but i think that's just wishful thinking/anglophilia

[grayjeens]

this song just made​me realize that i don't have to suicide..

[wolfgirl73095]

It sounds like someone says "stupid" at 0:05. XD I've watched this god knows how many times but I've never noticed that before.

[weenerwallet]

a junkie's sad truth

[thecalciokid12]

@weenerwallet a human's sad truth

[mandypandy5690]

no correction i LOVE this song.

[mandypandy5690]

i like this song.

[klaraklu]

haunting riffs

[finallywearenoone]

agh epitome of last night

[raushkanaush]

no pretensions, just glazed eyes, unkempt hair, the taste of wine, the smell of cigarettes, hole-in-the-wall diners, vintage clothes, guys kissing guys girls kissing girls, watching the sunset at an overlook in the city...not wanting to be anywhere but that moment with your friends...as you leave your self behind. an unfortunately small amount of people in today's world experience anything close to this simple kind of bliss.

[indiereplicant]

@raushkanaush Actually a lot of hipsters experience this. I doubt it's very exciting at all.

[dropbows90]

@raushkanaush Don't forget plenty of opiates, too. I experienced something close to what you described, but only for a limited time. We had a good 1 year run before people changed paths. I think a lot of people experience our own version of what you described for at least some amount of time in our lives, that golden era.

[bostock1987]

@raushkanaush and its all staged and essentially, void of meaning. keep living the beautiful paradox.

[Gobbenobber]

@raushkanaush Couldn't have said it better myself!

[Kassxxkelly]

how ugly are you people if you thing these people are the 'beautiful people'

[SushiGoat]

@Kassxxkelly Maybe not beautiful in the sense of traditionally good looks, but, with risk of sounding cheesy, they seem beautiful on the inside. (I can't believe I just wrote that..)

[dropbows90]

@Kassxxkelly Oh, my bad. We forgot to adapt our chatter to your beautiful standards.

[qounqer]

isn't this what heaven is, just us and friends chillin forever and ever

[affbunda]

i love its song "And I don' want to cry my whole life through, i want to do some laughing too, so come on, come on, come on, come on, laugh with me."

[newbarad]

hipsterlife.avi

[komazor]

are you kidding me no hipsters wow @ breakingangels

[komazor]

eww what a fugly weirdo singer fix ur teeth with all that money or maybe stop smoking crack

[debzindahouse]

Probably one of the most moving vids I've ever seen. Breathtaking, especially the end. Unfortunately my life was nothing like this when I lived in SF... I wasn't one of the 'beautiful' people. But this is what it SHOULD have looked like!

[mousediggingahasty]

What a beautiful song. What else could you hope for?

[cinemacec]

i heart i heart i heart

[sourskully]

I don't know about anyone... but I think the lead vocalist is hot :)

[letrek]

i love this

[BChomemovies]

The fact that all the actors in this video were good looking people kept me from feeling like it was as humble as it was aiming to be.

I guess it's trying to make us think that these are everyday people like you and me, but maybe next time they should cast a few ugly people too, you know, for realism's sake.

[andomamern]

@BChomemovies These aren't actors. The director followed Christopher Owens and his friends around for a night. Pitchfork did a director's cut about it, and if you look at Girls' other videos, which often feature their friends, many of the people in this video make appearances. Have faith.

[sourskully]

@BChomemovies

They aren't actors they are chris' friends....

[idapip12]

I really wish that 'lil box that says: "playing Wrongbar, Toronto on 03/10/11" was true...

[Scorpiotide]

You can only be young once, so go with your hearts, nobody should cry their whole life through :')

[Breakingangels]

Good song, but the hipsters man...too many hipsters.

[andykndr]

@Breakingangels there's no hipsters in this video. they're people having a good time

[horsingaroundFTL]

I just love christopher owens

[000samsy]

This is the theme song to my life.

[hitwall]

like a new oasis- nice songwriting

[ycanada]

Life is an endless struggle without a destination because the place we really seek does not have a physical address, it's not a question of where we are. It's really about WHEN WE ARE.Unless you know time travel, good luck finding that place.

[MrChrissucks]

best band i discovered in 2010.

[xzeuqx]

wow wow wicked wow

[almostyellowKM]

i want to be friends with anyone that feels this way or has at some point because i know i have. and i think we'd all make great friends.

[brandaddy0]

@almostyellowKM

ill be your friend.

[69cbenson]

I wish my life consisted of just this: love, music, friends, and a slow motion pace.

[CanonD265]

@69cbenson Try pot.

[08dgoller]

says Luke Rathborne Dog Years

[vietnams]

its weird seeing my friends from SF in this video...which i happen to completely stumble upon 

[flpcnsglr]

listen to this song make me thing that life is not a waste of time and i have no reason to be sad! i have so much live, laugh, love and enjoy

[comedyliker12]

This song applies to anyone at some point

[earlofeastjurong]

this song describes my life completely...

[youbeenserved12357]

exactly

[luisvpc]

maybe one of the Coolest videos I've seen so far

[luisvpc]

That video is amazing!

[cbappa2]

Don't ever jerk off and then listen to this song in the dark or your head will asplode

[cleanplasticchild]

@cbappa2 That is awesome, man : D

[wolfgirl73095]

@cbappa2

Thank you for posting this comment and making me laugh while I'm sitting here feeling sorry for myself. xD

[LaceyBellissimo]

Relateable yet uplifting?

[HoosiersForever]

I heard this song just last nite : dude, it made my nite of sadness and happiness

[andxxxx]

How lonely is to be an adult

[heyheyitsmj]

I cannot think of a better way to describe unhappiness than these lyrics, or a better way to depict happiness than this video.

[AlexanderGoesSkate]

I would like to live a happy life like this.

[SkateFluffy]

@AlexanderGoesSkate Orrego <3 :D

[JackyBarf]

@AlexanderGoesSkate how can you not understand that this is video/song is tragic

[AlexanderGoesSkate]

@JackyBarf because I can only see the good things in it.

[goshdranitalex]

I wish my life was like this .

[lihdafadhil]

imagine youre alone in a train with many happy couples and this song starts to play.

god, im really a lonely person :(

[clowve]

This song sounds like it's sung by Brad Neely's Baby Cakes. :D

[fartzilla1988]

Shit ... whenever I hear this song ... I feel like crying and laughing at the same time ...

[LaiskaKettu]

what a lovely tune.

Retreat, kuka oli kattoo?

[DustyFuhfuhfingers]

I wonder where that dollar bill is circulating now...

[nizanp]

@DustyFuhfuhfingers haha i thought i was the only one that thought like that.

[chaddt]

this song was played at my best friends funeral. thumbs up if youve lost a best friend...

[selfintuition]

@chaddt Thumbs up if you've lost a best friend? WTF?

[pizzed]

@chaddt When my best friend/bass player Ted died I tried to reach into his casket to reposition his hands so he would go out throwing horns. My brother whispered 'wtf are you doing?' I told him. He then whispered that 'everybody will hear his bon es snapping if I do that.'

I did not do it, but I made a bit of a celebration at his funeral. :-)

[punkangel1986]

ppl with warm and sensitive heart like us should b frdz

[AnIntangibleBadge]

YESTERDAY IS HERE.

[AnIntangibleBadge]

YESTERDAY IS HERE.

[cmerenuge]

I <3 sandy kim

[ycanada]

Great song, gay video.

[Shirokinukatsukami]

@ycanada

Yes, there are some gays in the video, but i don't think that makes it a gay video. It is also a het video.
