[acrobat441]

1:28 Look at the lead singer in the background, he has a huge smile. xD.

[6tonics]

One of those kids has got a pretty shocking mullet.

[CptSpaulding93]

At 2:55 he looks at that wee girls chest, sorry pal there's nothing there.

[WizzyBangz]

<3 I dont fall asleep unless im listening to frightened rabbit, which is strange....troublesome when my laptop/ipod is uncharged

[kolona45]

this video just makes me smile :)

[sergeantfan]

In ten years time, those kids are gonna look back at this and realise just how lucky they were to dance along next to the best band on the planet. Mon the Frabbit!

[HalibutLikeTheFish]

You guys have probably saved over a three dozen lives.

I know it doesn't seem like a lot, but it is.

peace. keep this music going. don't change, but evolve.

[OkiLoyal]

FUCKING TUNE, man im scottish and live in oklahoma and a guy heard my accent just there at wal-mart and asked where i was from said scotland he said Oh man im a huge fan off a band there, it was you guys never heard of you before but lovely stuff and you guys are here just now tay enjoy america boys.

[sergeantfan]

@OkiLoyal Hahaha that's amazing!

[flashahungrysmile]

The booger eater at 2:33 is going to regret that on his 18th!

[roryroryroryy]

The best thing about this band is that they use simple melodies and chord progressions, but still manage to be incredibly original. A real breath of fresh air, keep it up lads!

[Brian93TM]

Does the advertisement keep freezing up on anyone else?

[123weejohn]

This band soo good discovered them 3 days ago on my I pad good because there good and there Scottish

[iiedoggii]

@123weejohn Reading your comment makes me want to kill myself.

[Paulalankely]

Going to see these guys live on the 8th :D

[maddies1]

the perfect video to a perfect song. how can someone not love this one?

[MBRFX1995]

when this was released, estelle was at number one. what is wrong with the world?

[codxxmasterxxmind101]

This song gets me thinking...i love it.

[adam3music]

Apparently I was baked out of my mind and favorited this video. I love surprising my sober self with good music :)

[SabiSan19]

@adam3music

It's like a present for your future self. FUCKYEAH!

[amnbs]

@adam3music OMG, same FUCKING thing happened to me.. i left a not for myself in a word document and i googled frightened rabbit and was like... oh, its a band... so then i youtubed it and it lead me here!

[Jimmyd711]

@adam3music best comment I've ever read on you tube!

[inkysmudgemusic]

This is just so damn good.

[wheels5288]

This song rules!!

[turtle0317]

so many white kids

[073674]

@turtle0317 hahahaha

[daltoni7]

Bloody Brilliant

[BringingYouNewMusic]

 2:49 those moves are amazing.

[rjvaal]

Frightened Rabbit used those kids. Most of the kids were clearly unhappy. Sad.

[Ryoku1989]

@rjvaal Sounds like childhood to me.

[Innocuous1]

@rjvaal Two words - Permission Slips

( Also what the hell good do you think it does to try to make kids HAPPY all the time when they are going to live in this world as adults? - They deserve security and guidance and a certain level of freedom, but they don't need a 24/7/52/365/18 joy ride.)

[rustycageandrun]

@rjvaal

yeah, they look sosad dancing their asses off and smiling...

[muntario1982]

average song, great video

[happybirthdaymillie]

that room completely sums up my childhood.

[BringingYouNewMusic]

@happybirthdaymillie Same same, state school education <3

[NastyNatey]

Is it just me or does it sound like he says `Jesus is just sponge-boy`s knee`?

[bmeechan]

@NastyNatey just you :p

[greenbean22i]

@NastyNatey lol yh i thought that too. xD

[sergeantfan]

@NastyNatey Jesus is just a Spanish boy's name (not sponge boy's knee)......does sound like it though to be fair!

[xmaswak]

love the Rabbit! This vid is great w/the kids.

[musiclovinggamer]

@angus1917 sweet!i love these guys!

[catpower11]

i love this song cuz is about we are here, while we're alive, we can do something good , besides video is fantastic ;)

[arsenalpricey]

Love this song

[Jk3Mysterio]

nigga band

[darvinnful]

Viva el Reino Unido! I love Brittish music, this song pets my heart.

[wylandy]

just cause he says jesus once doesnt mean its christian rock! the fucking songs about atheism

[luke12hallam]

bloody wonderful that was.

[AVA1234]

this isn't christian rock... the songs is about atheism

[ariucr]

This song makes me happy inside like one of those kids!

[indrancole3]

"Dirt in someone's eyes cried down the drain." That line blew me away, sums up a human life in eight words. Gonna get it tattood. Beautiful.

[Valdarama1]

thought the video was a strange idea at first, but now absolutely love it... Great song and great video.

[hazzle34]

The kids have great taste in music

[birdiesneagles]

I could watch this for days....majik!!

[jegmarquez]

The kid at 2:04! Hyper! :)

[sergeantfan]

Frightened Rabbit are absolutely amazing. I am dying to see them live. Heard they are incredible live.

[musiclovinggamer]

@sergeantfan they were supposed to be at coachella but they could not make it cause of the volcanoe. :(

[youlovemaryjane]

NEW ALBUM DROPPED TODAY.

I love them so much, aargh.

[sparkmedia01]

Beautiful song :3

[aagraber45]

Ha ha ha..... fun!

[batman3456]

LOL the kids are jammin!

[freshfunkmeister]

This band are horrifically underated. This tune is utterly beautiful.

[andymac1873]

This band are shit hot !

[jaxrulesuall]

Heard about these guys through an interview with the one and only Ben Gibbard. My first impression was.. What a weird voice.

Then I pulled my head out of my ass, listened to a bunch of songs while reading the lyrics, and realized that this is one of the best albums money can buy.

Please promote the hell out of these guys. They deserve the money and the fame, unlike anything you're likely to find on the radio.

[McArthur1888]

this song is almost as good as glasgow celtic

loven this band

[digitalash11]

well said, i saw them live touring with dcfc 2 years ago and fell in love. lyrical/musical geniuses. there's nothing generic about this gift.

[lfleming89]

@McArthur1888 what so not very good then? And behind a much better band by 10 points WATP

[uncleruckus516]

they get compared to WWPJP a lot but im not hearing it at all.

[beatinDobby149]

Very snow patrolish

[jiggahuh]

how dare you

[beatinDobby149]

Haha, take it handy. I don't like snow patrol at all but I'm impressed by these guys. The more I hear, the more I want to hear......

[FLUORESCENTkai]

nooooo!

[OpheliaImmortal]

That's a terrible thing to say

[beatinDobby149]

I know! I've since changed my view drastically. These guys are class in fairness

[Prawnaldinho]

Burned! Oh aye.

[porly666]

shit name for a band. they sound wet

[Dunc89]

so does yer maw

[marek1904]

Fajny, chwytliwy kawałek, z przyzwoitym tekstem i niezłym pomysłem na video, z dzieciakami w roli głównej. Pozbawiona zahamowań, autentyczna szczerość niektórych reakcji - bezcenna!

[TheSuperYahtzeenator]

I've never heard of Frightened Rabbit before but i really like this song! nice work, it sounds great!

[syberspud]

Incredible song. Fabulous video too. Little kids rocking out? Genius!

[youshouldsmilemore]

This is easily one of my favourite songs ever.

[MrWingnut11]

'and while Im alive, I'll make tiny changes to earth'....we all should,...the world would be better off without mankind, 'if the planet dies; we die; if we die; the planet lives'...but this song makes it almost bearable to live AND save the planet, if we did it it would be beautiful...

[MrWingnut11]

Beautiful song...Im an atheist but I wish I could see the world through the eyes of this song...its beautiul thing and I hope my dad is wherever they say he is...

[delicioushotorcold]

brilliant song from an album of brilliant songs.

[re3irth13]

nothing has meaning just enjoy it

Saw these guys a while back with death cab.

They are really good live.

[nobodycares8291]

dude you are one of the luckiest people then i would love to see these guys live

especially with death cab. i love them probably one of my favorite bands lol

such good bands

[musiclovinggamer]

@re3irth13 where did u see em?death cab for cutie right?

[TvoiVrag]

the video filmed in glasgow school of art is for what song? don't know the name

[NoAddedAnything]

the lil dude at 2.50 makes me smile. :-)

[mashroxoutloud]

See. I don't think a song can mean many things to many different people. It doesn't matter what it means to one person, as long as it hits home in some way with you, the artist's job is done

[BNelley244]

This song isn't about anything you guys have said.

It is easily about how even though we may all be religious or not religious, the point of life is to each give a little back to the Earth to make it a better place, and how he believes Religion sometimes steps in between that.

[bmaobl]

does the guitarist have a jazzmaster?

[JackattackMF]

Its a jaguar ^^, but close :)

[Strongers77]

This IS NOT christian rock you fucking idiots. To me, most of the songs are about loss. "YOU'RE THE SHIT AND I'M KNEE DEEP IN IT!!!!!!" If it was christian rock, this would mean that Jesus was a pile of fucking shit...........Mmmmmmmm.

[JackattackMF]

I know they are not a Christian rock. And I fucking hate christain rock. But, never the less, this is a song about religion...and i like it.

[allgreatmusic]

actually its about the lack of religion: its about atheism. If you people don't believe me watch or read the interview with the lead singer about this song.

[JackattackMF]

I am an athiest. I was just saying its about religion. And what I take from it, is that he his quite religious. Why do you take offence from that? Thats the problem with athiests, they cant let people be happy with God. And theists will not let people without Him :P.

Its a good song about religion either way :P

[candeogauisus]

This song is Religious way of saying that religion sucks !

[GotNextVideo]

It's a song about mortality, not religion. It's about being part of something ongoing despite the absence of an afterlife.

[allgreatmusic]

so true. if you look at the interviews with the lead singer he wrote almost all the songs about the breakup he had with his girlfriend, so yes they are about loss. and this song? its about being an atheist. sorry to all you religious people out there, but he said it himself.

[08001815]

Glayva

[billzeking]

the drummer looks a tad bored lol

great song

[RevsFan89]

Check them out live, he's far from bored during a show.

[billzeking]

hmm......maybe its just the atmosphere in this video....

[JackattackMF]

I checked them out. Really didn't like them, sry.

Please don't compare them to frightened rabbit.

[waltergonefolk]

You probably only heard the song God of this City, correct me if I am wrong. The one that really reminds me of them is called God's plan. They are indeed Christian though, so if that is a turn-off for you, then they are probably not the ideal band to listen to. They do put on a great live show and they are indeed a great band in my opinion, but I realize you are entitled to your own opinion :)

Thanks for the try out anyway lol, not many people will go out of their way for that haha!

Cheers

[JackattackMF]

Yeah, I always check out peoples recomendations. I like christain music if it is done well, I just dont think they do it well atall, i thought it was shallow, emotionless and soulless. Just kissin god ass more or less :P. The type of christian pop music i like is when it tells the effect of religion on people in reall life, rather than 'preaching' over pop music to try and get in with the youth.

Check out - 'Jim White - A town called Amen'

or 'Blind Willie McTell - Lord, Send Me An Angel'

[GotNextVideo]

Well the appealing thing about FR is the heartfelt, personal lyrics, and unfortunately having a "Christian" band is rather like having a "Love song" band. It's really trite cliche by definition. Christian music tends to be very cold and plastic, in a way that's different from just music that happens to be by Christians.

[gmt13]

rofl the singers stoned out his box, i dnt know many christians who get stoned.

[Themazinhero]

How 'bout me? :D

[asianmatt2012]

I'm so happy i found this band randomly.

[modevotion1]

while i'm alive, i'll make tiny changes to earth.

[JayGreenly]

Pure, some of the best music I have heard in years.

[james8791]

clearly not an irish accent ya idiot

still tho, fukin love them

[happy1332]

do they belive in god are they sort christian

[waltergonefolk]

Its awesome how he decided not to butcher his accent to try to sing! He is sporting his Irish pride! They really are a great band! As far as Indie-Folk bands, they are boss!

[WHATSWITHTHEGASMASKS]

arrrrrrgggggghhhhh they are SCOTTISH!

[Lunis11]

Yup.. They're Scots

[waltergonefolk]

That was a total accent lol! I totally meant to write Scottish, but I was watching Boonedock Saints lol! Sorry guys, they are bomb though!

[jaffdudegoldhero]

this video is rather off the point, and pedotastic.... xDD

[jaffdudegoldhero]

I love them, but so annoying that i heard them on the radio the other day, i've been following thme since like 2007 :L

[jrnikraftar]

this band is ridiculously amazing

[lewisutd]

frightened rabbit are so good much better than some of the shit that tops the charts these days

[robotomassi]

i love everything about this band

[andrewisok]

such a cool video

[louisebxxxx]

my fave band right now (L) (:

[ciokotoff]

I did come from the Death Cab interview and I`m glad Ben mentioned this band. It's really good!

[crankthetoto]

me too

[redboots77]

me too

[longlonggone]

This song is track one on every mix tape I've made in the past 18 months and will ever make again. It blows me away.

[kelseywall]

Did anyone else come here from the Death Cab For Cutie interview?

[kevin122100]

yes lol

[icantfindyou123]

class song best ive heard in recent months of any band

[enlightenthemasses]

That's one of the points of this band, they like to record in ordinary places, cuboards, living rooms, school rooms.... instead of fancy studios etc....

If you don't like the lyrics, that's your own bag... it's a great song and this is a great band.... You can either catch the wave or move a long, but don't down someone just because YOU don't like the lyrics.... You really don't matter.... It's obvious they have talent or they wouldn't already have worked with the people they have...

[uptonleft3]

Superb song. Superb lyrics.

[GlebShes]

they are sooo good

[heyheysg]

Kids and Rock Bands, whatever next?

[ProtesttheMax]

This video put such a smile on my face

[jimmy747]

Haha, these guys come from my home town, Selkirk in Scotland, I used to be the Hutchison Brothers postman!!

Liking the music !!

[iloveboldizsar]

[cruiser277777]

i've been getting into them much more lately than when i first listened to the album. :)

[tkmat]

[spirespires]

soo much better than death cab

[NapoleonDynamiteer]

i saw the in paris starting a Death cab concert and..they were much better...

[ChadwickRyan]

Every time I watch this video it brings a huge smile to my face... The message and imagery go hand-n-hand beautifully!

[mastiffen1980]

YEAH! They're cool. Didn't know them before they were announced @ Roskilde. Looking forward now as well!

[Vingtoft1011]
