  • Such an amazing song.Everything they do is amazing <3

  • It's pedobear!

  • the song rocks, but i think the video is weird

  • @GuilleIzquierdo90 But its so sad, and I think it makes the song that much better...:)

  • The verse of this song reminds me a lot of Radiohead's "Airbag" for some reason..

  • @swavetube The groove is similar, and it's textured and layered similarly. It also may be the same key.

  • @swavetube It's probably the guitar and the one line chorus...I sort of hear it too.

  • Damn did they use metaphors or imagery that's not 110% realistic or plauible?? Damn potheads!! /sarchasm

  • This song makes me feel like I'm on vacation in Florida.

  • Pedobear ?

  • That GSD at 1:30 is pretty...

  • thumbs up if mlb2011 the show brought you here

  • Shit, I found this song two years ago on the YouTube homepage...

    Amazing. :D

  • how did she not hear him being mauled?

    Let's pretend all she can hear is manchester orchestra..

  • Le Zoinks!

  • Damn this video tripped me out and im not even stoned xD LOOOOOOVE this song.

  • Srsly...i fucking love his face when the beat gets him at 1:13 :D

  • I have some absolute amazing friends and even out of them i still think one or two would not trip me if a bear was running after us, and would try to fight it off, while I climbed a tree and do a leaping triple flip-suplex roundhouseoff the mid range limbs onto the snout of said bear, watching bruce lee movies can come in handy for moments such as bear attacks. PS i adore this song and vid

  • is that a real bear?

  • @lucymellola Yep.

  • @lucymellola Of course.

  • This video is just so averagely hipster, the song is amazing though.

  • i like

  • That bear is so realistic! Its so scary I nearly peed my pants....

    Hehe.

  • such a good band. such a shite video.

  • youtube.com/user/theprettymarx

    very similiar band, check them out

  • i love the song but sometimes I just want to yell, "you dumb bitch, turn around!" so much lol

  • this song is a music excellence, but the video is shit.

  • awesome!!!

  • Quisiera ser Nerd, con mi novia Nerd, para que me mate un Oso que canta!

  • @LouisParty Los lentes se refieren a un estilo completamente diferente.

  • damn this song still gives me chills, amazing piece of art/music

  • 9 people are def.....

  • the music speaks and the words heal.... get what you want, but get it quickly...........

  • @mucu LOVE ur take on the song! very influential =)

  • The song is about death. Think about it... "pitty in the grass

    (and)

    dirt in the ground is what I see

    (referring to a burial)

    friends in all the right places

    (referring to friends in heaven maybe even God)

    In case you never know...(or)...in fact you will never know

    (feelings that never were said)

    (I am sure there is more.)

  • love that song

  • What? This is obviously about the life of a unicorn trying to find his way around the store to find his favorite cereal on a high shelf he cannot reach...

    How you don't see this is beyond me...

  • @JaredTJohnson

    ar3e you on lsd?

  • i love when people argue over meanings its hilliarous

  • nice song, reminds me of all my old friends

  • Damn I love this song!!!!

  • hipsters are so deep and complicated.

  • this video blew me away

  • Coool song. But chill with the glasses. not cool.

  • I don't even understand how any of you trolls would think this has anything to do with drugs?? Listen and watch, if not.. Go fuck yourselves and get a life

  • awesome song

    

  • Dumb ass's. Its about her dead friends who want her to be with them.

  • this video is one gigantic hipster clusterfuck, but i absolutely love this song

  • i think this music video is about a guy who had friends that used him to get girls but didnt want him there, or something.

  • different than the other songs they make but still, great

  • weird video... but still great band

  • this song is so beautiful, it makes me happy every time :)

  • I think it's about feeling abandoned

  • oh crap its indie!

  • This isn't about drugs. its simply about your friends influences on you when your in a relationship. I.E. they don't want you to stay in a relationship because the "know" whats good for you The "This is about drugs" can be applied to almost any rock song. Nuff said.

  • /clap/clap/clap/

    well said =D

  • @pimpc1125 Isn't it also kind of cliche to say it's about a relationship? I think it's more about the powerful and often negative effects our peers can have in general.

  • @rockon6191 It would be cliche. Except that it's in the lyrics "When I need you, I need it quickly" "In case you never know!!" et al. But yes, the part you said about peers and the effects they have on yes, that's the bigger part of the song.

  • @pimpc1125 That's what I'm screamin!

  • @brittanyisdabomb I got obsessed with this song for a while. When I read the lyrics and listened to it over and over. I realized this song is telling a story, the chorus tells what happens 'Know they don't want me to stay' The other parts are details. "Dirty on the ground/grass" is something significant, probably something to do with the experience that inspired the song. Unfortunately only the writer of the song knows the full story.

  • @pimpc1125 honestly, music is all about how the mind interprets everything. every song is different to every person. even what the writer says a song means can be different to a different person. you choose what every song means. the creative mind is always unique and thats why when you have an extreme creative mind fame comes to you.

  • @brittanyisdabomb This is definitely a song I wish I had written. It's unique.

  • yeah but thats just the music video.

  • The songs about a man who his girlfriend is gay and he finds this out threw his friends in the right places.She would like to share him but he finds out he is gay and he would rather do it with bears

  • The harmonies on this song are so unexpected and so kickass.

  • oh crap, idea thief troll has struck again.

    yay!

    fckng gn

  • OH CRAP ITS PEDOBEAR!

  • This Song Rocks!

  • this band fucking rocks!!!

  • THIS SONG IS BAD ASS

  • Epic song....for some reason I am reminded of Janes Addiction. Fucken great song...

  • @jjruesijr BRAVO!

  • fucking awesome nerd gets pulled by the fuckin bear

  • yea, uhhh, this song is about drugs and drug dealers dudes and dudets.

  • holy shit bear! lol

  • Whata great song. dammmn!

  • i love their music videos, so...mysteriously beautiful

  • bear at the end. lol what is that all about. good music vid still,

  • THE way dude looks...............HES BIG.

    He ommits this GARGAMEL/SMURF voice kinda like BEEVIS though IF he can help it...NAMES familiar to him are coping strategies while innocently and affectionatelyGIVING a LOVEING idea to WOMEN HE may not KNOW.

  • it's clearly about a guy with friends in all the right places... oh and they dont want him to stay. duh. ;)

  • So from what i can gather this song is about a guy who needs sex all the time and hes gonna break up with his gf because she wont put out and he cant have sex with other women.

    Anyone else debate this interpretation?

  • it's about his drugs and his dealers, the bear dragging him away from her represents the drugs. he ends up dying, hence why she's visits a graveyard

  • the bear is a metaphor for sexual urges being displaced.

    don't you read Freud?!

  • drugs its about drugs the other guys r on the money cuz when he says i got friends in the right places its drug dealers and they dont want him to stay since the drug dealers only want the money thats my opinion

  • "I know what they want,

    and I know they don't want me to stay."

    good point.

    It could also be friends who only want to be friends with him because he has drugs?

    but I bet you are right on that.

  • WHAT IS THIS SONG ABOUT?!?!?

  • betrayal i think

  • pretty good song!!

  • good song :)

  • Here in the US, this video is not even available on Vevo.

  • this video plays so much better than the vevo version. im happy :]

  • Love manchester orchestra!!! :)

  • It's really just the one line as far as I can tell, and that really is a commonly used expression. Even so, the timing IS too close, so it is irritating. If it was released like, a few more months later, no one would have noticed. In any case, I didn't care for that OneRepublic track at all, it didn't have the heart some of their other tracks have, and felt like it was just a cash flow pushed teeny bopper chart topper attempt.

    Manchester Orchestra PWNS! Wooooot! :D

  • awesome song

  • What the hell goes on in these videos

  • Their videos aren't the best...

  • scary that if my days were like this i probably wouldn't mind. Great video

  • the difference is that all the right moves sucks!

  • i know its the pretty little teen girl version of this song

  • ok is it just me or is "all the right moves" pretty much a lighter version of this song with a couple lyric changes? This has been bothering me for days and i cant figure out why no one else has noticed this.

  • I noticed this!

  • shit i saw them yesterday at bake sale stood behind the bassist at the food stand lol

  • herd them awhile ago supporting kings of leon... but then never herd enything of them till yeterday (Y) glad i did

  • It's called a chorus, dickfart.

  • lol that girl was on shrooms

  • I love the bear!!! and the girls glasses

  • This song makes freakin' sense completely and totally. More like fiends!
