Wye Oak - Fish

[rachelisunhappy22305]

I think I'm falling in love

[ragingbullable]

@jakekarlson Yes it was

[anne6887]

my mom is all "i caught a big fish......arn't you proud of me" lolz how did she get that from this song? hhahah

[Ph0be]

All my friends ask me what band this is but I dont tell them. It's mine...all mine >=D

[aguinn19]

that huge fish HAS to be a reference to the beloved children's book, The Rainbow Fish. ..share your scales with me please, Wye Oak. ;)

[pandarincess]

This is the best thing ever, seriously.

[WordTheChill]

U are what you eat.?

[jakekarlson]

was that abe lincoln rowing that boat?

[neilcoxhill]

this is lovely. same vibes as my matthew and the atlas - within the rose video. shadow puppet fun.

[CimarronConspiracy]

Seriously one of the best videos and songs i've ever heard

[DreamBladeStudios]

They were amazing live at the Explosions in the Sky concert.

[MusicRained]

41 people are hating because they don't know how to swim.

[34joliez]

@MusicRained haha thats funny!

[lindseyfashow]

this reminds me of the twice by little dragon video, yes?

[kittenfactor]

That is totally Abraham Lincoln. 

[fullmoongabby]

they who made you...they made me to..... REVOLUTIONARY

[RupDudley]

When she sings, "They who made you, they made me too. Violent like you, Quiet like you." Really think she's talking about people? I think she means Experiences.

[FriesanGirl456]

AQUAMAN!!!!

[emperorsclubmusic]

Great song, great band.

[BHLongboards]

Hahahaha this has literally nothing to do with evolution

[paramorevampire1996]

this is cool ;3

[pswhite119]

Hmm... if you think this video explains Darwinian evolution, you probably don't understand Darwinian evolution.

[jaden3388]

@pswhite119 If humans came from monkeys why are there still monkeys!? checkmate atheists! (sarcasm)

[pokeshmon]

@jaden3388 LOL

[ULMO10]

@jaden3388 Good one, almost! Humans did not come from monkeys, not today monkeys anyway. Humans and the chimps (our closest relatives) share the most recent common ancestor. That means that the evolutionary line that brought monkeys brought humans as well. Darwin said that too but for some reason a lot of people share your misconception. Atheists saved (sarcasm)!

[IHaveBadInMyVeins]

Awesome video (:

[sharpsponge]

FISH!!

[cascoz11]

This song makes every emotion I have ever felt just go from my chest and spread out to the tips of my fingers and toes. I love this feeling.

[gigglesmansonn]

Did the freakin fish just eat Abraham Lincoln?

Oh well. This song is still infinitely awesome.

:D

[gigglesmansonn]

They who made you, they made me too.

<3

[11melonhead]

i honestly dont like this :P

[fullmoongabby]

@11melonhead now everyone knows,and doesnt care

[11melonhead]

@fullmoongabby .... this is called a comment, where u drop ur oppinions... well there was mine -_-

[ReggaeAshCrash]

So much more to come. great sound. Solid.

[MrDeritamichael]

I think this music video explains how evolution takes place, or how acid can really damage a person's brain.

[gigglesmansonn]

@MrDeritamichael ahahahahahahahahaa!!!

[gorgon441]

Anyone else get the Spanish ad? lol

[ucbearcat123]

what a great piece of art. anyone want to tell me what it symbolizes to them?

[fullmoongabby]

@ucbearcat123 reincarnation

[TheSoundDork]

It's Layne Staley!

[hellhasgone01]

i love it.

[MrFreakySnakes]

I don't know what the hell i just watched but it was freaking awesome...

[borjon23]

@MrFreakySnakes You know exactly what you watched. Stop trying to be cute.

[2008dada]

what's she saying. I can't understand 80% of the words. ENUNCIATE

[HeatherMarie8888]

[taylorbrook53]

never heard of them till i randomly seen them in the side bar. a very great piece of art i must say :)

[snewton08]

I am the same as some others, saw the song on the sidebar and was bored. I love boredom I loooooove this song and band. Raw talent. Im hooked

[white21jack]

PUPPETRY IS A MAJOR AT UCONN, lol

[WipeOnTheShirt]

Abraham Lincoln!!!!

[screamingpickles27]

wow i saw this in the sidebar when i was watching another video and just clicked on it to see what it was. WOW is all i have to say... this is a piece of art. I just bought the whole wye oak album on itunes... the first good thing vevo has done by putting this in the suggestions bar...

[ccrosby081]

Really neat graphics!

[cascoz11]

This song gave me chills the first time I listened to. A.ma.zing. song.

[frostipagan]

Can't I watch this without an ad for something horrible?

[zMrAlexthe13z]

@frostipagan sure, just pay 5 dollar a month to be in youtube and you wount have to worry about ads anymore, NO

[X3Happie]

1:16 she says OM NOM NOM! 

[kingofpudding]

I'm really excited to see this band getting more attention!

[tamelamama]

Eye Candy and Ear Meditation

[IcyHot311]

This is a beautiful song <3

[MusicBeautyyAndLove]

This video and song are creepy



[Krintok]

When I get my first Ipod, this shit Is going on It first.

Then possibly P!nk, Sia, etc... but I could play this for all of eternity.

[jmtley]

why does this remind me of Little Dragon's, "Twice"?

[Blondie7350]

weirdest video i have ever watched..

[kiwinemissus]

@Blondie7350 there are waaaaaay weirder videos

but i encourage you to not look for them lol

[theepicninjamoose]

@Blondie7350 Then you havent seen the video for E.T. -_-

[travioli48]

do these guys originate from Salt Lake City?

[RelaxThereIsNoGod]

@travioli48 No,they're from Baltimore,MD.Love these guys since their first album.

[ealvarezz10]

@samueldahle thanks for the link

[EPICichiban]

Full Circle.

[xTamaxDarkrikux]

Trippy but still cool :D

[drqster]

great music lives!!!

[coolgal123kiss]

Holy shit. There was words and not just awesome boating and guitar playing? :O

[ealvarezz10]

I like the graphics but I wish I could see the lyrics so I can understand what she is saying

[samueldahle]

@ealvarezz10  These seem pretty accurate:

pandora.com/music/song/wye+oak­/fish#lyrics

[gigglesmansonn]

....those who made you, they made me too.

[WhySoRetarted]

lol the picture looks like an asscrack. xD

[sportzplayer7007]

i cant even understand what hes saying

[rosemaryfull]

@sportzplayer7007 thats why the song is amazing 

[deadbeatdork]

fell upon this and actually really loving it

[Antisyzygy]

Better than the usual popular crap thats out there.

[SuperEatyourbabies]

@Antisyzygy

No music is better than one another, because none are the same. They're just different.

[Antisyzygy]

@SuperEatyourbabies No. The skill in pop music is in the producers and sound engineers, the musicians are crap. They are just actors, and can't play music worth a shit. Its music made as a product to sell, not as art. This song is good, and it has minimal editing. If you can't tell a song has been auto-tuned and spliced and chopped to sound good I can't help you.

[SuperEatyourbabies]

@Antisyzygy

I wasn't referring to the skill of pop artists, i'm just saying you can't fairly compare two completely different types of music. You don't know as much about music as you think buddy so stop making it seem like you do.

[Antisyzygy]

@SuperEatyourbabies Of course I do. Im fucking 27 years old. I remember shit from when I was a kid like Kurt Cobain and also some 80's bands. I also play bass, guitar, and trumpet. I play slide guitar delta blues style sort of good and I play some pretty decent funk bass. I am not as good as I would like to be and Im not a professional but I am better than most people. The music on my profile is like 5 years old. Top 40 music is a bunch of over-processed auto-tuned bullshit.

[AaronsSecretProfile]

@Antisyzygy

Lol want us to sing you the birthday song? Being alive when nirvana was around doesn't make you some musical mastermind. Neither does playing an instrument. Just stop being ignorant. So what if there's pop artists in the world, people like it. It doesn't affect you in any way so get over yourself.

[dropoutkid11]

Mike from Drop Out Kid sings and dances to "Friday" by Rebecca Black

youtube.com/watch?v=VWlmUi1HkF­I

[Nairod2]

only 1 thing to say watch the little dragon video for the song twice then tell me this is not just a copy i mean the video not the song but is just the same work done under a diferent history

[TheSecretflies]

@Nairod2 yeah, but they're completely different artists.

wye oak are more indie sounding, and little dragon have that electro/low buildup sound going on for them.

just cause their videos are slightly similar doesn't mean they're trying to copy each other.

[nezizaful]

I clicked on this by accident. Might have been one of the best accidents I've done ever.

[mariella13579]

@nezizaful word brethren

[kw32668]

you suck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!

[lightTHATbob]

brilliant.

Art still does exist!

[thenakedbuffalo]

listened to it 8 times

logged on to favorite

[stephaniewazhere]

lets get this masterpiece to a million views :D

[bluesteel362]

I found this song while looking for the strokes!

[VetteAholicZ06]

Awesome song!

[mixxmann65]

Sorry but this kicks the shit out of little dragon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ArielAschchoreo]

go watch little dragon: twice. its simpler, better done, more affective. and original

[Purplemuslimlina2010]

I love this song and the illustrations .Please keep making more videos like this. Do you notice this is my second comment. Such a relaxing song.

[Merely]

Perfection.

[deathfizle]

Cough....cough...Little Dragon...cough cough

[ubertomadachi]

Wow, that was an experiance I hope to never forget.

[56turtleman]

26 people accidentaly hit the dislike button

[Zunesrthebest]

Reminds me of Little Dragon's - Twice

[wildrobotthings]

@Zunesrthebest The song AND the video. Almost identical. Weird.

[MrSouthphillyitalian]

lol

[PatoPadre]

i go fishing and its never that fun

[songinmyhead1]

this videos shits weak WEAK

[mastacholi59]

bravo!

[Mallory337]

Don't think I'm crazy, but for two seconds, I thought this was Adele...

[JamesHNeary]

That. Was. Breathtaking.

[ArielAschchoreo]

@JamesHNeary go watch little dragon twice.

thats where they got the idea from



[skypup77]

@ArielAschchoreo Shadow puppetry is an ancient art thats been around for thousands of years, thats where Little Dragon and Wye Oak BOTH got the idea from.

[Iife]

This is quite the experience when you're high!

[WMF125]

WATCH : Twice - Little Dragon . don't ask why. just do. and you'll see why

[gatorade10ful]

oh fish man....

[kklala19]

im nottt quite sure on how to feel about this

[kroppcirclelover101]

.....did he...... become the fish?

[morganhodder]

@kroppcirclelover101 i think so. but he may have always been a fish inside. so even when he got swallowed by the fish, it was just a new experience, he felt out of control- until he got used to the fish. and then found the controls and steered it until it was like he was more fish than man. but then the life at sea seemed..i dunno, too homeless-like for him, so he came home and started to learn how to be a man again. but he's still got the head of a fish, so he's still lookin out away at sea..

[maximus91206]

The song is about reincarnation

[maximus91206]

her voice makes it possible

[isnowski2]

i just found this song, i love it!

[fastd03]

this video is absolutely beautiful! I like the song a lot in its own right, but the video takes it to a completely different level of elegance and artistry

[professorbland]

finally the guy who dropped out of school to learn puppetry can shove it in everybody's face and say "LOOK AT ME NOW!!!!"

[obunkystaind]

@professorbland lmfao

[Demipimp]

@professorbland We were all ways worried about that guy but we can suck it I guess

[Arwinspeceis123]

Thumbs up if you got here from "My Milkshakes"

[Teskus]

3:45 MURLOCK!

[wolfmusic218]

@Teskus: LOL, fellow geek! I got that! :)

[wolfmusic218]

@Teskus: LOL, fellow geek! I got that! :)



[VetteAholicZ06]

This song better gt 1M+ views!

[honeybeeman]

god this is such a fucking cool video, why does the song have to be so boring, watch on silent!

[taylorjaynelson]

The sound and cinematography to this music video is a new standard to the alternitive and independent music. Also Wye Oak will never disappoint with a live proformance.

[taylorjaynelson]

The sound and cinematography of this music video is proubley a new standard to the alternitve and independent music.

[rmr355]

1:38 black sails in the sunset - afi

[mystacall]

right down to the barnicles!  beautiful!

[rox20rite45]

My favorite song by these guys is 'That I Do'....She is amazing on that track...this one as well

[38Stoney]

this is a really cool melody....very humble

[AngelHael]

Maryland folk artists represent!

[Ferociouslint]

Beautiful



[SorenBryce]

it's like a chinese puppet show..(:

[Norn]

@SorenBryce I think that's what they were going for

[shortbusinc]

I don't get it

[TheNichofTime]

really cool artwork..

[inktoxicated]

cool tune sound slike my speaker is blown tho

[winggoddess]

vevo puts all that info in the description but no credit is given to the one who wrote the lyrics. they should put the lyrics in the description.

[psyrmc]

what a beautiful and amazing work

[Crichtonification]

Not my favorite kind of music, or my favorite song (not by far), but its still not bad ^_^

[chickenlivermeow]

my heart belongs to indie music <3

[lynchard27]

beautiful.

[MidnightAngelDArc]

"Fish" - Lyrics

They who made you, they made me too.

Quiet like you, violent like you.

i've seen you live wild in my dreams.

When you return, go to the sea.

Air is your permanent struggle to breathe.

When you return, go to the sea.

[VetteAholicZ06]

@MidnightAngelDArc

Thank you very much for the lyrics Bud.

[MidnightAngelDArc]

Gone, gone gone. You were never alone.

I'll come home and raise you up to what's left.

Ghost of your voice, finally rests.

Open your eyes now to all that is next.

Don't be afraid now, you won't need me.

You'll be at peace now, at last from the sea.

You will forget, eventually, the life that you wasted that led to the sea.

Gone, gone gone (picking up your human pieces) you were never alone.

I'll come home and raise you up to what's left

[sprtzfan17]

reminds me so much about the black sails in sunset album cover (AFI)

[Seetanz11]

This is beautiful. :-)

[Krintok]

This is just like Lior's "I'll forget you" music video!

Beautiful the both of them are, regerdless of how similar they are.

[jrzy1212]

Fucking blows!

[TQFoley]

this song sucks

why does google keep recommending it to me

[jezzerrss]

@TQFoley go die buddy.

[ArknineYT]

@TQFoley

Google has poor taste.

[ma369rtin]

@TQFoley

Not my thing either.
