[darytoauan]

most played song in my itunes.

and i am completely fine with that.

[animemefreak74]

absolute favorite song by why.

[mrmagicdude2]

This song not only changed my life, but saved it. I thank my lucky stars every single day for the girl that showed it to me. Thank you Glory, for this!

[KawaiiCuts]

She keeps her fists shut tight and she sleeps on her side.

Had this stuck in my head all week at school (:

[PunkerJunk]

kaygrog.. clearly stalker's your whole style and if you get caught you'll deny.. deny.. deny...

Much Love For Why?.. especially the alopecia album :3

[lizikakizil]

Yoni's lyrical genius exemplified perfectly in four minutes of musical gold.

[sexafiedable]

i sleep on my back cause it's good for the spine.; and coffin rehearsal

[TripTea]

just saw their only american show in chicago a couple days ago..A-FUCKIN-MAZING!!

the venue was smaller than a movie theater. INTIMACY BITCH

[blehyouhoe]

Idk why i can't get over this song. It's just so catchy and has a good feeling to it. Reminds me of when i used to work at AE :)

[doogdoogdoog]

This song is so fucking good, I can put it on when I'm literally in ANY mood and it somehow fits and I'm a-singing along.

<3 WHY? so hard. Annoyed it took me until this year to finally listen to them.

[cloudiadesuini14]

Their sound reminds me or They Might Be Giants! im in love

[ditoway]

150,000+ views... hmmm... a little too mainstream for me.

[cleeve]

@ditoway

Man, you must be really cool to judge whether or not you like music based off of how many other people have listened to it. No one could ever be as unique or underground as you.

Warbringer brought me here :D:D

[McGrapplestein]

CAN SOMEONE OUT THERE UPLOAD ME ON BEER, OFF OF THE EARLY WHITNEY EP. I CANT FIND IT EVEN THOUGH PREDICTIVE SEARCH LISTS IT.

[darytoauan]

This has got to be the best song from the album. The instruments in this one are just plain brilliant. And the lyrics are ughhhhh let me go clean myself off

[frother]

@darytoauan not even close. take a second listen to Simeon's Dilemma

[darytoauan]

@frother It's all personal opinions, man. But I'll take a listen anyways.

[PhillyBluntsDoItRite]

@darytoauan personally, i think the hollows is the best song from alopecia. but all the songs are great.

[darytoauan]

@PhillyBluntsDoItRite I downloaded the entire album three weeks ago, every song is brilliant. I take back the statement of this being the best. It's impossible to put one on top of another.

[PhillyBluntsDoItRite]

@darytoauan this is a correct statement

[92jdeg]

the lyrics make me think..i only get like 26% of them but it keeps me commin back for more

[debhensel]

someone help me find a song by them that i don't like...

[lizikakizil]

I am still alive, in love, and wide-eyed in my time...

Favorite lyric to any song I know at the moment.

[JustJoshinYa54]

@lizikakizil sounds like a good tattoo, eh?

[lizikakizil]

@JustJoshinYa54 Dude, yes. I've been thinking about that. haha

[cop3lant]

i used to be disgusted by music that sounded this poppy. but his lyrics are so good that now i dont mind it. why? blows my mind.

[MegaAJER]

this stuff is kool but i liked when he rapped.im down with the whole evolution thing but still,this guy rips.

[waterlollie]

a woman that reads her own palms for personals hahaha I got a pretty funny mental pic from that

[Stuie1973]

and when we say your name our tongues catch flame

and you wonder why we aint got nothing to say

[birdsascarnage]

theyre amazing, and their lyrics are just...i love WHY?

[crohns4life]

wish god would put a song like this on my palm

[musicandWriting77]

Cool song. Reminds me of Vermont. I have NO clue why!!

[realjess29]

very nice

[kaygrog]

Bridget J., if you're somehow reading this comment and somehow know that this is you I'm talking about, thank you so much for introducing me to Why? by posting the first line of this song as your status on Facebook. We've never talked but I stalk your profile once in a while and copy and paste your statuses into Google to find new music to listen to, and discovering Why? through you was the absolute best. Thanks.

[Rabbittsfoot05]

@kaygrog You should talk to her and tell her yourself. She will probably appreciate it.

[igflyboi]

@kaygrog haha dude thats kind of creepy i mean you ve never talked to her before, do you get off to her pictures or something lmao, but hey atleast you discovered one of my favorite bands

[HauntingTheChapel89]

@kaygrog i really feel like this comment would be more appropriate on SIMEON'S DILEMMA

[8gibblets8]

:)

[reeny2]

and you ask me is there anybody else that I'm daaaaaating

<3 I love it :)

[lilyblue11]

how could you not like this song?

the first time i heard it, i listened to it the whole day.

[MOMORPIGER]

Love this song so much.

[MarkTheFish008]

i sleep on my back...

[MarkTheFish008]

i sleep on my back...

[jugglebug911]

am I the only one that will "thumbs up" a comment, just to make it an even number?

[sonofmanson]

@jugglebug911 i had to liek this, just to make it odd! >=]

[MichaelLeroi]

@sonofmanson i had to like it just to make it even ;)

[infinity6655]

I still dont see how why? is hip hop

[stifdrifwood]

@infinity6655 one word ANITCON

[Kbyusxie]

What's this song about?

[Qber4life]

@Kbyusxie everything

[19stuart73]

The Shins? Ha....NO!

[Animaduniversum]

Sometimes I think that Jonathan "Yoni" Wolf is the only artist that I can understand and he's the only one to understand me.

[151Dave151]

@Animaduniversum ha i totally get that

[rreynaud1]

I am satisfied Yoni's music has gotten more and more personal.

[RaygunShaun]

Hard to believe the chorus is actually "Anna and Nathan... Anna, I'm patient."

[LauraJ37]

@RaygunShaun

It would be.

[Emi212]

@RaygunShaun Is it really? How'd you figure that out?

[RaygunShaun]

@Emi212 Yoni explained it in a Pitchfork interview, and once you've listened the chorus fifty times like I have, it's pretty easy to discern. He just articulates it weirdly, like "Anna and Na-aAaaAHahAAH! / -than Anna and Na-aaaaaaaAAAHah" and so forth.

[RaygunShaun]

@Emi212 Also, I think it says that in the lyric booklet for the album, which I can't find.

[LaLawette]

Why? is my favorite bands right now. Only band that I think I have actually liked more for the lyrics (but only a little more) than the music.

[PimpStar17]

this song is amazing.

[blakebaumann2010]

muahahahahaha on sunday woot getta seeem



[Emi212]

1:01-1:14 is the best.

[Emi212]

Yoni.... <3

[thatsclasssy]

This song flows so well ! I love it, it makes me smile :)

[F0lem]

and you ask me is there anybody else that I'm daaaaaaaaaaaaaaatiiiiiiiiiiiii­ing

[arlinkingmartin]

aaannnaaaaannaaaa IIIIIIIIIII feeellllaaannnnaaannaaaaannnnn­aaaa IIIIIIIIIIII

[fredsmajic]

but your painted pony is fading...

[dfunk4321]

every time i hear a song by WHY? that i haven't heard before, it instantly becomes my new favorite song. brilliant, brilliant shit.

[BethanyBetty]

@dfunk4321 God, yes. You're like my twin.

[noonelikesalexD]

im suprised i dont wanna kill the singer. i like his anoying voice.

no homo

[kalyptus]

Stop it with the "no homo", it's fucking ridiculous.

[cbappa1]

@kalyptus this song is gay no homo

[radicalricky]

i call homo on that one

[ComeOnDieYoung44]

one of my favorite songs.alopecia is a great album<3

[mundi420]

I'm so happy for the band, but a part of me is so pissed that they're gaining such popularity. One thought being that I don't know what the attention will do to them, both in terms of future compositions and remaining together as a group, lineup changes, etc.

[Aholz09]

@mundi420 I know exactly how you feel. Same this is happening with The Avett Brothers. Yoni is such a cool person, he came to use our white wall for pictures and it was a honor to speak with him.

[brainsinCan]

yay, a new band to fall in love with, these guys sound awesome.

[AlexxAnimosity]

WHY? has the most amazing records. This record, elephant eyelashe, their new one, eskimo snow, and sanddollars are just....amazing<3

[shnerpler]

ever since i first heard this song i have listened to nothing but the alopecia album, mainly this song. WHY? is fucking breathtaking.

[rabbitwho]

i'm lucky to be under

this same sky that held

the exhale from your first breath

like a ring on a pillow of clouds

[PinkCheeto]

"I sleep on my back cause it's good for the spine and coffin rehersal."

just WOW.

[CarRamRod5269]

The opening lines to this song just amaze me.

[snicks0]

for some reason i never liked the beginning. but other lyrics are just unreal like in simeon's dilemma and this blackest purse. "i wanna speak at an intimate decibel, with the precision of an infinite decimal."

[jkaiser07]

Yeah, god forbid they dont rap the lyrics to every song.

[garfus2]

wikpedia "yoni". it is the sanscrit for "vagina". HTH!

[garfus2]

why is the only sell out POS still signed to anticon, i hope he gets cancer of the nuts and dies.

[Femicide09]

They're sell outs because they actually sell records and get shows with more than 5 people watching?

[Femicide09]

Who was? I don't remember what was said.

[XGreg187X]

I love how there songs vary.

[kennykshatriya]

Yeah, I could imagine James Mercer singing this song

But not any other Why? songs! They need the WOLF

[Tapeleg247]

Kind of reminds me of The Shins, no?

[GasparLewis]

Maybe, this song, a little tiny bit? But overall, not really. Yoni Wolf mixes in a lot of genres to really mark out his own territory. Alopecia's a great album, go track it down.

[Tapeleg247]

I meant just this song. I've heard their other tracks before and there aren't any similarities on those.

[ashotinthedark10]

eh. I don't see it. mostly because I'm biased by the opinion that Why? is the most unique band on the face of the Earth. =D

[1the2one3and4only]

Yeah, this song anyway. Most of their other stuff is pretty different.

[rasmusxp]

I get that too, also a lesser known band called Gravy (listen to "glory to our brilliant name")

[daesonesb]

@Tapeleg247 In a good way. If you start to get through all their material, however, you'll find that this is not their typical sound (they are pretty prolific as far as genres go).

[Tapeleg247]

@daesonesb i know, i know. i said just this song.

[ben23speed]

@Tapeleg247 Not at all.

[Tapeleg247]

just listen to "Turn On Me" or "Know Your Onion" or something and then listen to this specific song (not any other Why? song) and tell me they don't kind of sound alike. not enough to be rip-off, just similar sound.

[jimmydude1123]

probably the greatest song ever made:)

[minpappahetertorkel]

I love it!! awsome!

[Plunderwear]

fucking awesome

[JoanLPS2]

I think this is like hypnotizing me.

Freal, I CAN'T get it out of my head.

[diddymac0000]

coffin rehearsal

[Femicide09]

Best line in the song, amirite?

[elf4life420]

cough in rehearsal.

:-) i'm not saying that's not the lyric, just that's how i'd heard it at first and it's a play on words. nothing we wouldn't expect

[Femicide09]

It might be. Yoni always does stuff like that. I'm pretty sure it's just coffin rehearsal though.

[StillBonez]

My favorite too

[BruceDick]

Best song on the album

[mrbastttard]

for real!

[amberispregnant]

so catchy! i like this song.
