[patcab96ch3]

[j0nj0n03]

Happy December 2, 2011 Everyone

[kobewise]

I knew it! they shoot the supermarket scene near in our place! Rustan's Supermarket @ Zabarte Mall.! nice!

[kobewise]

wow! datsun 240Z

[onehundredistoone]

DAVED VOWIE nyaha :))

[Zinczion]

One of my favorites, love this song

[brookin]

This album is epic - I've had it for nearly 2 years now and they are mint -= love 'em!!

[kaloykoynol]

it's called pop-art...

and from what I know this video is fairly-original...

i mean not much music video showcase/shown pop-art on their video....

[ieatkidz4breakfast]

@kaloykoynol but this video is somewhat subliminal don't you think?

[kaloykoynol]

@ieatkidz4breakfast Well its not really subliminal, because the message is not "sub" , under or hidden within the video. it's more like Symbolism which is used on most video or art to evoke a message or a story. It is a symbolism, because a person who may watch this video would wonder or rationalize what might the symbol mean. --- I think it's Pop-art, because the use of intense colour and also the "Prozac" part could be inspired by Andy Warhol's "Campbells Soup Cans"

[ieatkidz4breakfast]

@kaloykoynol actually that made sense and you've totally have the right idea of it. Thanks, cause most of the videos these days are either subliminal or has a witty comment within the video it self. Actually the one who directed video is pure genius cause this video really inspires me. I don't know anything about art thing but I am interested in expressive creations. I am more of a poetic type so I tend to capture the heartfelt meaning to it not the beauty itself. It really is artistic though.

[kcufyouu]

this song is perfect for a cold morning jog.

[killstrange]

♥ ...got it...

[killstrange]

wheres a heart comment when you need one...

[starscamecrashing83]

this band reminds me of bloc party :D saw them at amber in the fort for the listening party of the new album. awesome show, good crowd

[chickenchopsocky]

@starscamecrashing83 Of course Bloc Party's hella better.

[starscamecrashing83]

this band reminds me of bloc party :D

[dontyouknowww]

omg is the girl secretly david bowie? holy shiiit :O

[Ryoku17don]

Love IT!!!!

[anghulinghiling]

this band was chosen by time magazine to be 1 of the 5 asian bands to watch out in 2011. congrats to taken by cars. let's be proud of them. =)

[koheleth08]

for me dis is pancho esguerra's best music video.......

[rommelpunsalan]

pinoy band rockz,

[ganguru01]

di ko ma gets ung video saka di ko maintindhan ung lyrics. napaka hina ng boses.

masyado ba kong tanga? o tlaga iba lang mag isip gumawa ng kanta and video na to?

[EJIS1979]

Taken by Cars is my favorite band =)... The female vocalist is so cute :-)

[eddiesy009]

What car is she driving?

[Wingcapt4]

@eddiesy009 looks like a Datsun

[blackstain69]

i don't think they're emphasizing the seemingly Coraline features of this mv. more like the depression that she experiences and the way she resolves it. they juxtaposed the two girls throughout the whole mv and it's pretty hard to miss. :>

[bam24]

parang coraline :)

[angaso28]

@bam24 Onga nu? Naun ko lang npncn ahahaha

[kiplinggorilla]

This is my favorite song from them! :D

[zentetsuken19]

i really thought that short haired girl was KC concepcion before

[wefindhappiness]

wow....nice!!!nice vid also!!! but the theme i guess have the same with the pixar movie "coraline"haha....just wondering!!!they both enter a magical world.....BUT it was still great

[punkgotfat]

niceeeeeee

[akosigundam]

This song's a lot better listened to during the sunrise and sunset. I don't know why exactly, but the "feel" is perfect whenever I listen to this song at those moments.

This song's an exeption to the usual Taken by Cars ensemble; they're best listened to at night. Late night. While driving at 140 kph.

[akosigundam]

And I almost forgot: this song would make great BGM for closing credits.

[krizanya]

this never gets old.. the best.! lots of love from -cebu

[ryex76]

wow!

[sibfrost04]

sarah looks really hot with that red dress. deymn!

[niccord]

[jeanneriz03]

sarah marco :)

[yeahuhuhwhatever]

Shit, It's nice to finally find an OPM music video with the comment board not bombarded with "astig!!!"'s and "rok on mga tsong!!! hehe"'s. No offense, though.

[gerardoitalia]

ano name nun singer ?

[scythemyself]

great video...

nice sounds...

mix is fantastic...

san mga gigs nito?

[kurdec]

ang galing, ang husay , astig!

[magicmahalbaby]

enough of the bloc party shit! good artists borrow great artists steal hehehe joke. pero it is really bloc party-ish sound.

[Mindswirl21]

their sound reminds me of bloc party,genious

[1wingedpianoplayer]

reminds me of michel gondry's films. :D

[edgaruo]

is shes hallucenating?bkit hindi si sarah ang nasa video sayang ang ganda pa naman ni sarah...androgynous vox male and female voice,but anyways it was a great achievement for you guys you made it this far congrats ang lupit something to look forward too... go guys you must having a hard time working on your band..well done

[pilmuy]

did you grow up without maternal care?!! why can't it be just a pinoy band, bobo?!! mag migrate ka na!!!!!

[crapo]

Pleasing to the eyes, may concept, but in the end pretentious, artsy-fartsy, sophomoric.

[dianneping8]

me music vid na ba sila for logistical nightmare?

[bidyunilerapot]

nice. cool concept

[reyah]

ryan kong rocks!!

[blackice1022]

ang creative ng mga music videos ng lecheng banda na toh! Astig pa mga kanta nila xet!

[aristotlepedro]

Donnie Darko!

[arias2141]

ngayon ko lang napansin yung Holga... KAKULAY KO PA =))

[littledudu]

taken by cars wahhhhh!!!!

grabe ganda ng video na to,astig yung prozac boxes.

[lSmiLEmol]

a Band called The Sound of Animals Fighting also used animal masked like the one they used in this video... great video :D

[preludeof26]

techno-pop or somekind of electronica..dami nila influences..basta astiig sila..

[restpire]

electronica na dance ang tunog..

[ravendeath1414]

madali lng ung guitar intro ang mahirap dto amf tlaga ung sa bandang 3:29 hangang dulo na ang hirap kapain pero pipilitin ko parin para ma produced ko na tab(tablatures) nito kahit papaano...^_^

[bhenzz]

ang dali lng ng tabs sa bandang ian

[ravendeath1414]

eh di mag post ka ng tab kng madali para sayo.....hay hay hay

[ravendeath1414]

eh di mag post ka ng tab kng madali para sayo.....hay hay hay

[ravendeath1414]

eh di mag post k ng tab kng madali para sayo.....hay hay hayyyyyyyyyyyyyys

[reyah]

hambog!!! eh anu ngaun???! dpat bng ipgyabang??!

[ravendeath1414]

I don't think this is a song for her late friend...I think this song signifies the composers broken heart maybe the title means like a page of a diary with its chapter this is actually a very lonely song with an upbeat inspirational electro sound..for me sarah is right this is really a piece of art within ears of people!!!move forward tbc maybe we could have a jammin session someday ^_^

[fhongkhlai]

wew!! galing nila,sa sobrang galing di ako makabiyahe ng hindi nakikinig sa kanila,wew !!

[emoplunk]

sino si gondry??

at ano ang ginagaya nila??

[alahabjab]

nakadikit na sa ulo ko yung guitar intro

[MVicious]

Hanlufet \m/

Blowing-mind hehe :P

Galing ng mga representation ng vid na to. Yung mazes of the mind eh para sa akin, under the influence of drugs or talagang hilong-hilo na `tong bida natin. Second, parang consolation na rin siguro yung instead of blood, eh colors na lang yung nagsplat sa car windshield.

Yung lang po.

More more more.

[angelmonica03]

mumixam9

i'll xplain to u.. may ibig sbhin kc jan c sarah kya gnyan ung music video nla.. may frnd kc xang nag suicide month of december xa nagpakamatay and kya chapter 7 mrming kwento kc kya as u can see kunwari binaril nya sarili nya cguro kc ayun ung gnawa ng frnd nya pero bsta ang kwen2 ng kantang yan is nagpkmatay ung frnd ni sarah..

[Jlongbee]

Ok yung nag PD nito.

[mumixam9]

why cant pinoys make their own style ba kamo? sobra naman to...pinoy have their own style...nagkataon lang na pinili ng band na to ang ganyang genre..wala namang copyright si gondry sa style ng music ah...anyway...

angkulit ng vid lalo na ung pinull ung trigger..hehe makulay din ung lumabas na "splat"... pero d ko maxado gets ung vid..hehe..boggle-minding!

[lykishkeane]

love taken by cars.... go go opm!!!

[ebagore]

A sinking call

An out of sight hello

From a thousand wailing walls

Its like you

Oh, its like you never left

Its like you never left at all

;]]

LSS ako

[jessiequaint]

pag nakaharap ung gurl na maikli ung buhok parang si bjork. :)

[joelmarfori]

ang KOOL ng taken by cars lupeyt!!!

[MalaDroitness]

your ryt redcomet:

Gondry it is but dont say its a wannabe. an influence it could be.

[john27allen]

nice vid...

[redcomet1977]

criticism is part of the visual medium's evolution. nagkataong me background si b3lowzro sa style ni gondry so he knows what he is talking bout. although gondry's style is not so unique, yun nga lang halatang halata yung influence ni gondry sa vid na to.

[MalaDroitness]

SERIOUSLY,

stop the bashing people.

Napaghahalataang di marunong mag-apreciate ng music at mag-criticize ng visual artistry in a subjective manner. pinoy ka pa, tsk tsk.

[b3lowzro]

lol now what has my nationality have to do with this? C'mon accept the fact that pinoys have been rip offs of foreign style (well with the exception of the Huling El Bimbo music vid). Isn't better to accept the criticism and take it as a challenge to make their own style rather than accept what we see and don't do anything about it.

[masbiba]

"Isn't better to accept the criticism and take it as a challenge to make their own style rather than accept what we see and don't do anything about it. "

may point naman si b3lowzro

I agree with this part.

pero, on the lighter side, magaling din naman tlaga ang tbc.

[Somebodylost]

@b3lowzro Ah, well. Touche.

El Bimbo? You like it? just askin...

[kaloykoynol]

@b3lowzro

Anung Nationality ba po e2?

[pincaution]

@b3lowzro U fuckin' piece of know-it-all shit... Yeah we know, some but not all Pinoy bands have made rip offs (songs or MTVs) of foreign acts, but to say "pinoys have been rip offs of foreign style" is BS... way to generalize there idiot... and oh, bands abroad have also been known to copy/imitate acts from other lands, you might want to talk to their fans and say their nation is also filled with bands who make rip offs... dumbass poser crap... feeling magaling, crab mentality at its best

[chickenchopsocky]

@pincaution After the 90s everything just fell apart dude. It's true. Sure there are SOME exceptions but the fact of the matter is everyone's trying to be someone in the West. Back then we had bands that didn't sound like anything from anywhere and we had movies that had depth. Now we're just trying to BE Western. I hate to break it to you but it's true.

[pandoratommorow]

@chickenchopsocky true that but hey, at least we are not the only country trying to be like that. If you check out Bands from germany, they are inspired by Japanese rock bands [Jrock].

[chickenchopsocky]

@pandoratommorow Well Germans have this genre similar to the Japanese. It's sorta like pop metal 'cause the general mainstream demographic likes it. But pop metal came from hair metal and hair metal came from America back in the 80's. The Japanese loved hair metal so much they adopted Mr. Big and the whole Hair Metal Music Scene to Japan from the 90's onwards while the rest of the world listened to Grunge and Alternative Rock (well at least the people I know did)

[b3lowzro]

@pincaution thank you for pointing out that you're an idiot, i never said that the band has been rip off of foreign style. Anyway, take your "crab mentality" palusot and be buried under the false sense of nationalism that you so and the others are trying to preach here.

[birdcagemind]

@b3lowzro Though I like what you said about accepting criticism, I have to contend that it was inappropriate to resort to using the word "rip-off" so quick. I mean, where else are we going to get influences and inspirations for a post-punk music video? I mean, what do you want, carabao and farmers in the music video of a synth-laden Maybe it wasn't original, but come on. You don't have to call everything unoriginal a "rip-off". I'm pretty sure whoever made the video wanted something more apt.

[atorni09]

@b3lowzro hindi porke nag eenglish ka eh tama ka agad. tama si @hulinghiling, eh napaka dami ng naunang influence at style nung gumawa sila ng music video eh. ano magagawa nila? at ang gusto mo atang palabasin eh pag may nauna eh lahat ng kagaya nila rip-off na? hindi ata justified.

[b3lowzro]

@atorni09 sir, look six thumbs ups what does have to say about my comment. and ohh yes that style, well you can take influence from a style pero don't make too obvious.

[b3lowzro]

my goodness Michel Gondry wanna be nanaman, hay why can't pinoys make their own style lalo na in audio visual stuff?

[reality17]

anong name nung girl na my hawak nung # 2???

ganda ng song na to...

[unwanted22]

you know guys taken by cars is the shit! their fresh,the have great taste in music and hell they really know how to create a song! alam mo pwede i compare ito sa other bands in U.S. with a girl vox like kenotia, charlotte sometimes, paramore...you know it doesn't even matter who i compare this guys too because there soo original and soo good you know..dito siguro walang nakakapansin pero they are soo in the zone gets niyo. maybe hnd sila uso pero you got to admit astig sila no matter what u say

[kamotetomak]

TANGA! wag mu ikumpara yung taken by cars sa ibang banda tulad ng paramore kung sasabihin mu lang din na original sila tsaka electronica tugtugan nila TANGA!

[itrytobe]

[schoolyardshooter]

"I've been taken" by Taken by Cars. cheers to everyone

[bahamasblue]

tang ina, pwede makining na lang tayo?! enhancement lang ang videos. pwedeng kopya nga ang mga videos ng ibang band, pero at the end of the day its still music, their music that matters. not crazy ass comments from smart ass lunatics.

[kshinigami]

easy lang... but really, i agree. the music is much more important. and i really like it.

[latakinc]

eternal sunshine of a spotless mind(?)

galing galing na banda.

[fuchsia17]
