Ariel Pink "Politely Declined"

[maxmawell]

He's a character. I love this shit. :)

[realjohnhammond]

I don't do drugs and still I love Ariel - Not sure what album I like the most ... The Doldrums, Worn Copy? They're all great ...

[opiumkidx]

i see ppl like this all the time at the zoo.

[T666X]

@opiumkidx LOL

[TIPPERBLK]

exit stage right

[agentoranges]

that girl's way too cute to be geneva jacuzzi

[Arkhigoul]

*spins like a madman*

[chanarx]

Ariel looks so manly with this moustache

[Arrivald]

I eat oatmeal for breakfast and this is awesome.

[blackandpink17]

i fucking remember that tank game!

[fazeunclegersh]

@blackandpink17 it's on the tip of my tongue!

aaaaarrrrrggghhhhh!!

tokyo wars? no! FUCK!

YES! TOKYO WARS!

YO. YO. YO.

[connorwood83]

if you have any knowledge of ariel pink, then this video is undeniably hilarious.

[letycraig]

i think that you must be "on something" to really enjoy this video...

[iamacheeta2]

haha hes so funny. it just cracks me up.

[prozacpeople]

Yeah!

This guy will rule the world!

[Lysistrata8u]

A hipsters wetdream. He is in violation of the 2nd rule in the hipster handbook however "It is effortless, never try too hard to appear hip be yourself and you are hip enough" unfortunately this dude is trying like a mofo to be different instead of being different and its so evident it hurts. knock 5 points off for a 5/10, I will be sharing his music with the masses.

(First rule in hipster handbook, "never share good new music unless with another fellow hipster", that ones paramount.)

[DonaldBumsfeld]

@Lysistrata8u Seriously dude, WTF are you talking about?

[TeethTeethEyes]

@Lysistrata8u

talking about "hipsters" and referencing the "hipster handbook" just makes you look like a fucking jackass, go try to make fun of something thats actually stupid like wiggers for example.

[msa1985]

i like the melodies he comes up with. fuck anyone who bitches about the retro aspect

[pexex90]

Its making me smile

[vsister]

one thing is certain... this is a good-comment-inspiring video.

nice hair.

[LonghornPhysicist]

Hipsters masturbate to this kind of shit

[AORCrazy]

This is totally wierd but i like it. It's so '60./'70./'80.

[angrygrunt]

is this malibu?

[p0479]

I sometimes pretend to be black and a little bit mexican and this is awesome.

[brokenflashlight]

i love this song a whole lot.

[fazeunclegersh]

i think this track could do with a lot more dislikes- keep it edgy- i want people to be saying "this track makes me puke, rough" any takers?

[countchunkula]

THANK YOU BASED ARIEL.

[mechanicalhornbird]

what the heck is this???

[louiscarruthers]

1:02 <3<3<3

[sevennnnnn]

0:53 the guy turn around see the girl, check his pocket to see if she didnt steal him. lol.

[MrScoopy19]

The guy is a complete nutter and \I've heard he's pretty unreliable but this is magic! It sounds like a class children's TV show theme tune that people would reminisce about years later!

[labbearnaise]

c tout pourri tout comme j'aime. mh...good shit !

[chedder72]

can't.....stop.......watching

[LonghornPhysicist]

this is the most hipster thing I have ever seen

[imarobot7]

Reminds me of the 90's, it's great!

[stbaptiste78]

I really want to have sex with that girl. In a monkey way.

[radarthreat]

The songcraft here is incredible

[maudefarrugia]

this is real life

[LankyLuther]

That is most definitely a theremin.

Best songwriter of our generation? Not much competition

[MrEagleEartwig]

Oh man I know the feeling, haha.

[chedder72]

holy shit, where can I buy his shirt?

[CreativeFilmMaker]

Why does this Aesthetic creep me out soooooo much?

[supafreshkik]

too bad they are so commercial now.. this was unique

[idis1abad]

wow does this remind me of rainbow brite???? O_0

[YourEminence]

gargle

[DW8807]

this is so god damn strange, yet so awesome

[greendaykicksbut1231]

This is how music should be.

[Sammiurai]

is this real life

[WillT618]

thank you basedgod

[Metalgazer]

chew mule pouch

[TheGoldenPlates]

i'm Caucasian, and this is awesome.

[bridgetown1966]

@TheGoldenPlates You are. And it is.

[yatakaka]

@TheGoldenPlates  i'm 25% caucasian, and this is still awesome

[prozacpeople]

@TheGoldenPlates

Yeah this is the best,perhaps!!!!!!!

[benlaux]

im on ccc and this is awesome

[anothercountyheard]

startleingly original and unique

[hellakooked]

Who's the girl in this song / video?

Oh, and I'm not a hippie but I do drugs, this is awesome....

[flipnkrud]

@hellakooked I'm guessing Geneva Jacuzzi is the girl

[ihatemusic666]

@hellakooked I think that it's his GF, Geneva Jacuzzi

[internettrollmachine]

@hellakooked I'm addicted to heroin crack meth datura ibogaine DMT and jenkem and this is awesome

[muzakaly]

@hellakooked I'm pretty sure the woman in the video is Geneva Jacuzzi.

[robertparker1982]

@hellakooked I think the girl in the video is Giddle Partridge. She is in a band with Boyd Rice and she directed Ariel Pink's Somewhere in Europe video.

[PhilFoxNJ]

I don't like this this is the weirdest music I've ever heard. And I listen to some weird music like wavves , flaming lips, primus, and even daniel Johnston. Something about it is just nightmarish to me. No idea why.

[sarahthebanshee]

@PhilFoxNJ you dont gatta like it

[draags]

i am a hippie, i do drugs, this is crap

[416maxnorth]

Love it!

[416maxnorth]

I like the part that takes place in the amusement park!

[veaganskaterkid]

this another good video!i love them!ariel is so funny!this is the style that i do too when me and my bro are just doing random stuff! i understand the concept of this!awesome!

[EnokiSkai]

Great track, from his best album

[kugunga]

i am a hippie also, i also do drugs this is epic

[nitryl777]

+++++

[fourges1]

i like how its obvious that they brought a camcorder to a carnival and acted insane.

[dendendn]

I'm not a drug, I don't do Hippie, this is awesome.

[SOADafi]

Ariel is a lucky man for 2 reasons

1. His shirt

2. That girl

[synromualda]

Who is that girl?

[Subtropicx]

the perfect song to break up with someone too

[alecjahn]

I'm not scared famous, I'm just scared.

[blurple6]

like it

[AltroLog]

It sounds like a weird combo of 80's commercials and afternoon tv-shows. That doesn't sound like a compliment but I find it a good tune.

Diggin the light flashes on the claps, video game intro and the macaw shirt.

And the girl is hot/cute.

[mffn]

this song makes me so happy I LOVE IT

[outkasst88]

This is the best music video ever made.

[KyleDoesMeth]

I'm not a hippie and I use psychotropic molecules. This is awesome

[lacerda70]

Love the vaguely 70's European pop sound. Oh and the parrot shirt is epic.

[Tippsytasti]

Hi hi he looks like Helge Schneider (German Comedian)

[lacerda70]

If you grew up in the '70s and have a certain sensibility, this man might be your Jesus.

[TheAvalonStudio]

trippy

[kristynalouise]

POLITELY DECLINED\ GOOD NEWS!

[bestfullyy]

Just google 'politely declined lyrics', and theres a couple of links - but they are only interpretations, so theres a few words missing :)

[bestfullyy]

pt.2

Now ..., they try To make you break down and cry, cry For no reason why For no reason why

If I politely decline I'll put an end to your query I'll put a cork in it, scurry And get the fuck out of here! Once again, I'll politely decline You withdraw me ...

I politely decline You every time, it's a clue It's not that I'm busy, it's you Christ, you make me turn blue!

Once again, I'll politely decline When you call me And may move on with your story As if I told it to you

[bestfullyy]

pt.2

I politely decline You every time, it's a clue It's not that I'm busy, it's you Find ways to make me turn blue

Once again, I'll politely decline When you call me And may move on with your story As if I told it to you

I'm getting a fever Just from your face Won't you get out of my way Get out of my pace

Don't even bother trying To make it all right 'Cause I was lying to you When I was being polite

[bestfullyy]

LYRICS: pt.1

If you ask me to call One more time I will be forced to ignore Your pressure violently I guess there's no use ... what I said ... ...

And I'll politely decline I'll put an end to your query I'll pop a cork in it, scurry I will Then, I'll politely decline If you call me ... And you complete as a woman

Now what can I do? Forget your offer I guess it's a game To break all the rules

See, my wall's going up Too hard to explain That you're really a bore Leave me alone

[PanavisionLove]

I am, freaken out...

[Terramax]

That damn woman... constantly badgering him for sex when all he wants to do is have some fun.

[thedezoe]

genius. an analogue dream!

[WARRIORPARK]

"iam black and i sell drugs this is awesome"

[WillT618]

SWAG

[lgb77]

from the tanks in the pre-opener all the way through all this crazy BS with the moustache and parrot shirt at the carnival with the water gun shooting into the clown mouth...this has honestly got me transfixed.

[octopuscollective]

is all her music this lo fi? you could record a pbs special and run it through a lo-fi filter to get music of this quality.. i can handle stuff like fuckbuttons (if thats lo-fi- probably more on the noise side but..)

this just sounds like a bad demo tape from a band that might be good if they ease up on some of the filters...

[MsIfuckinghateyou]

why decline her?

[kondor121]

it sounds a lot like radio jingle

[nat00ben06]

This guy's pretty sweet ya know very sweet? His music I'm leaving that up to...

[tjk3000]

im not a drug and i dont do hippies and this is awesome great thanks

[JayRocks311]

aw, i love you ariel.

[LovetteCher]

I think this video's comments has the most thumbs up of any YT page. Kind of weird.

[Keignat]

Ariel Pink's one weakness: his floppy bangs

[ilcapitanozurg]

i'm not a drug and i do awesome,this is hippie...

[Gary190tube]

this is the kind of video where you think "this is brilliant!!" when you're watching it, and then when it finishes you've got no desire at all to see it again for a few weeks.

[mateofleckito]

damn...you people really will listen to just about any trash pitchfork tells you is good.

[bobbyboosheh]

I'm not a hippie and I do drugs, and this is awesome...

[Volcanic9]

Who's talking about hippies? These are hipsters. They're playing hipster hide and seek, where the careless, sensitive, ugly, skinny guy is chased by a mislead but reasonably hot girl for reasons obvious only to them.

[brazzbazz]

the quality is not soo good :(

[maneatingorchids]

Dude should spend more time blocking and less time brushing his greasy hair from his mug...

[CptSaturn]

i am a drug, i do hippies, this is awesome...

[olywood9]

glorious - _ -

[johnlovesbridge]

I cant listen to this anymore after someone said they politely decline to me.

[nizanp]

I want his shirt

[Goodforrj]

I lick white dog crap, this is awesome

[lgb77]

haa. this is just a weird damned mess but I can't look away. "before today" is awesome and it's a little hard to imagine that this is the same guy.

[Jerdna3]

Oh man this guy is like the new Daniel Johnston for me.

[Genin9]

Ariel Pink speaks to my soul with art that is serious, yet tender...Humorous, yet painful...I'm better because of it.

[shellystonespoop]

love that parrot shirt.  It's great.

[lebensraummetal]

hey what constellation is that that keeps flashing? Orion?

[eyeassault]

He looks like Steve Nash, Nash is way cooler though.

[XdavidsthubbinsX]

im a hippie, im not a hippie man called ariel pink.

[schalkb]

I love everything of this

[joise69]

i have to take shit..but this is awesome

[Dark2531]

is that his wife alisa?

[p0479]

Just found this band today.  I love it. Parts of this sound like "Dawn of the Dead" That's money.

[l33tmaster104]

This music reminds me of all the old, old late 60's pop music. It's frikkin' awesome.

[jeffdeanable]

I'm not a hippie and I do drugs, and it's not awesome.

[edwardiansnow]

i'm not a hippie, i am, i don't do drugs, i am not, this is not awesome....

[TymexPyres]

I like some weird music, but this band's music gets under my skin...in a bad way. No sir, I don't like it.

[ldybby]

@TymexPyres methamphetamines sorta does that to ya.

[TheCrackSpackle]

@TymexPyres

I bet weird music to you is lady gaga.

[TheCrackSpackle]

@TymexPyres

just kidding dude!

[deachick]

The video is trippy, I'll give you that. The music is alright, but the "singing" is dreadful. And incoherent. Chillwave shouldn't have rubbish vocals!

[jamrockification]

the parrottttttt shirt kills lol

[rog809]

mmm a bad trip on acid alucinating in the early 70s wtf

[borowczyk76]

Ariel can run!???

[l3nine]

I like pie and this is awesome.

[mx6lover]

He seems very moody, and temperamental ! Though him pushing her away, running away from her, & her running behind him, make up for all his shortcomings !

Plus that t-shirt with the parrots, like he just came from visiting Costa Rica, well helps heaps, bunches & bunches. !

[earlofeastjurong]

i am a kitty , i do bugs, this is awesome....

[nandoisapunk]

creative filmaker only ur coment is usefull around here

[blakefcknface]

I really like this song, as much as it is to understand his music

like, it sounds like a really low quality record, and I love that aspect of his music.

[blakefcknface]

[frayedom]

does anyone remember the yoko ono video that made it on beavis and butthead? i think yokos jam was better than this, come on hipsters seriously? this is garbage not good or art

[frayedom]

i remember when beavis and butthead had a yoko ono video on the show.... i think yokos video and jam was better than this hipster crap

[frayedom]

i remember when beavis and butthead had a yoko ono video on the show.... i think yokos video and jam was better than this hipster crap

[GreyOrchid]

I remember that tank game from the beginning.

[karloh10]

@GreyOrchid what game is it from? I remember it too

[ifonlywemovedaway]

Cant wait for the album. OMg this will be sooo good.

[IAmWaverly]

The first time I listened to this, I couldn't stand it. Now I totally love it.

[IAmWaverly]

At first I could not fucking stand this, but now it's just; what the hell, this is amazing, what the hell's going on, I don't care, play the fucking music.

I love music like that. Loooooooove it.

[xAxWhitmorexRomancex]

How do people NOT love this!?

[prudenteda]

This is what happens when you take yourself way too seriously.

[prudenteda]

This is what happens when you take yourself too seriously.

[patrickj25]

@prudenteda its really the exact opposite of that.

[SoFarAreWe]

i drink pipi, from dogs, this is awesome....

[ish91914]

@SoFarAreWe OMFG MEEEEE TOOOOOOOO!

[coldbarefeet]

I wish I got to go on a ferris wheel with Ariel Pink.

[insleepsound]

I am and this is awesome

[daniva]

I have to pipi, I love dogs, this is awsome......

[nycnofx]

Ariel Pink is the Hottest lesbian out there right now...

[rp7o333]

There is a certain sadness to these folks' work...I think our generation is finally finding its feet artistically, and it is very odd the thing that is standing crookedly up from that gathering of patterns and bits of string.

[jeffdeanable]

@rp7o333 You are a writer, I see. Well done.

[KyleDoesMeth]

@rp7o333 Crooked relative to what?

[Gary190tube]

yep it's awesome

BIG SMILE

[Gary190tube]

yep...it's awesome (BIG SMILE)

[WolfmanToldmeToBilo]

[kashjjj]
