  • this scares me, then again some ads scare me...

    COOKIES!

  • Frightened rabbit :) they're kind of a mix of snow patrol and biffy clyro :) excellent song :) I went and learned it on guitar as soon as I heard it xD

  • @Pyromaniac12910 Nope. They're Frightened Rabbit. A mix of people and guitars.

  • I can't help but chuckle everytime I browse the comments of a video, find some stupid argument going on, and realize that one or both of the combatants has managed to slaughter the spelling or grammar of half or all of their comments. It's hard to take you seriously when you cant even spell "friend" right.

  • trolls.

  • this is on one tree hill i love it

  • Comment removed

  • Now then, gorgeous song. I love it and don't have much more to say about it.

  • @tylerkoolkid

    How is he a dumbass for not knowing how old you were when you made the account? And what relevence does creating your account in fourth grade have to whether or not your username read quickly looks like it says tool?

    People need to grow up a little more, and I'm not tryin tto be too offensive. Just like to state the obvious, though it may not be to you.

  • I almost burst into tears, and i'm not afraid of it! Ok, i'm a little ashamed of it.

  • this song has nothing at all to do with facebook :P

  • I'm in america and this band is really good. It's so underated in america. But soon everyone will hear this and gi: HEY I WAS THE FIRST PERSON TO FIND THIS BAND!!! Lol I could listen to this song all day though :D

  • @estriker5 lol im from scotland and i only found it today.

  • @LOGIESPZ wow really? more and more of my friends are hearing them every day without me even telling them, there growing fast everywhere i guess lol

  • I am from Peru and i love this band! So, maybe it's not as recognized internationally as it should be, but it's getting there... And maybe the reason they are so great IS because they are not so commercial as other contemporary bands (Sorry for my english)

  • I am from Peru and i love this band! So, maybe it's not as recognized internationally as it should be, but it's getting there... And maybe the reson they are so great IS because they are not so commercial as other contemporary bands (Sorry for my english)

  • "But I hate when I feel like this, and I never hated you." wow

  • who got here by typing in poke?

  • @awsome1135 I did LOL

    

  • to think, all this emotion just from his ex poking him on facebook

  • I love those last two lines

  • Typed in poke...

    wow...

  • such an amazing song, please check out my cover of it, its a video response and is on my channel x

  • probly the greatest lyrical song ive ever heard

  • I love the way his voice seems to shake sometimes, it ads to the emotion.

  • sounds like he says poke up my arse

  • listened to this song when my first relationship broke up, next girlfriend broke up with me and I listen to it again and feel just the same like on the first listen..it gets me again and again, love it.

  • what a beautiful song! takes about 2 listens to get used to their style but its such an amazing song!

  • i came across this song by pure accident n now i cant get it out of my head. the lyrics are very clever deep word play n show sheer brillience. cant decide on what emotion it provokes though. its like a happy sad, a cry with a smile. its amazingly great. 100% in my soundtrack to my life. love it.

  • "I might never catch a mouse, and present it in my mouth, to make you feel you're with someone who deserves to be with you." What a line. One of the best songs I've heard from Frabbit.

  • me too.

  • Girlfriend introduced me to this song. At first I didn't pay much attention to it, but I found it in my YouTube history and went back to it. Every time I have listened since, I get a huge sense of meaning and wonder. I can't even describe how this song makes me feel. I think to call this song amazing is an understatement. I don't write things like this on YouTube, ever. But I feel compelled to share my thoughts on this beautiful song.

  • This would be a cute song for a summer night ride in the country in a convertible. With a full moon shinning down on you and your significant other. Just this song in the background.

  • @redhousefilm You clearly didn't pay close attention to the lyrics

  • @alexs1422 Nope

  • okay i only heard this for the first time last night...its already my favourite song next to two others...greatest lyrics ever <3

  • "If you don't want to be with me, just say and i will go"

    Most simple, yet greatest line.

  • @RareSongs1 2bh ive listen to this song all the time and after readin ur comment i listened 2 try and pick the greatest line jst 2 c if i agreed wit u r nt. but i cnt pick the greatest line. cheesy as it sounds its jst all 2 great.

  • I know he,s scottish ye pillock, i can hear a resemblance if ya dont get over it:)

  • one of the most heartfelt and beautiful songs I've ever heard, I never get sick of it.

  • I never could relate to this song... until now...

  • Nobody wants to relate to these lyrics, trust me it killlssss! Can barely listen.

  • the song is sung with such brutal honesty... it feels like he is telling us what is happening WHILE it's happening

  • One of several great Scotish bands hovering around at present - Twilight Sad, Glasvegas, ...Jetpacks. A golden age for music if you know where to find it. 

  • "I might never catch a mouse and present it in my mouth

    And make you feel you're with someone who deserves to be with you.

    But there's one thing we've got going and it's the only thing worth knowing.

    It's got lots to do with magnets and the pull of the moon"

    got to be 1 of the most beautiful lines i've heard in a long long time .

  • this is the story of my life. right now. 

  • Fucking beautiful. what an amazing honest band. There's a lot of shit that is kind of flavor of the moment, but I will be listening to these guys till I find my grave.

  • Completely leaves me breathless and has inspired me to write the best song I've ever written

  • oh god. i love this man. whoever he is.

  • goosebumps everytime, without fail

  • Comment removed

  • This song really got to me. You can REALLY feel the emotion in his voice. Abolutely stunning.

  • Think this is absolutely brilliant:) He sounds very like the lead singer of counting crows:)

  • @givingitashot1 except scottish. And nothing like the lead singer of Counting Crows.

  • frightened rabbit takes a certain maturity and understanding to listen to, take your hate somewhere else

  • It is only one chapter of a book called The Midnight Organ Fight, it works alone but is much better when heard in context. This is the second last chapter of the story and you don quite feel the numbing pain so much unless you have listened to the story from start to finish. This is from the greatest love story ever told....

  • Odd for me, that my two favourite songs are both about rabbits. A frightened one and a white one. I think it is my wife spiritually telling me that we need a pet to help raise the kids.

  • This song is so amazing.

  • one tree hill

  • @candyiscrystal u dont respect this song... ur a tool

  • dont think theres a song in the world that describes my head to a tee more than this song at the minute...

    genius!

  • why would anyone want to hide a scottish accent, im incredibly jealous not to have one when singing

  • Well we can change our partners, this is a progressive dance, but remember it was ME who dragged you up to the sweaty floor.

  • @johnfactorial favorite lyrics!

  • this is music. pure emotion. extremely heartfelt.

  • Comment removed

  • the music is beautiful... the whooooo is haunting.... the lyrics mesmorising.... interpret this song how you will.... i am still unsure

  • By far the best Frightened Rabbit song, so much emotion

  • good music !! bao musica gostei ... ela transmite paz .. 

  • i think i may have given this video half its views

  • Without a doubt the greatest band Scotland has ever produced and yet they are almost complete unknowns in their own country. I think that this is totally unacceptable. Anyone that listens to this beautiful, heartfelt anthem has a duty to spread the word. Long live Frightened Rabbit, and god bless those of you out there who understand the meaning of music!!!!!!!!

  • @kelseybennettx Mine's the other half...

  • This song makes me think of clementines and cinnamon, red yarn and crafts and spearmint gum. It makes me cry at night and my heart wants to explode. This song is too profound and beautiful to understand on just the first listen. I could listen to this song for eternity and find a new meaning in it each time. This is truly something special.

  • @harrypottersnuggie05  Your gay

  • @tylerkoolkid No, YOU'RE gay. Wait. gay isn't an insult. You're.........stupid.

  • @MyCatLikesYourCat Your queer then!

  • @MyCatLikesYourCat

    TRUE !

  • @tylerkoolkid Somehow I read your screen name fast and it came out Tool... Then I realized... you are one.

  • @WhiteOpenSpace Yeah because i made this account in the fourth grade.. dumbass!

  • @tylerkoolkid

    And you are a homophobic JACKASS

    WHATS WRONG WITH YOU ?!

    GET A LIFE

  • @EdenNa23 Yeah well stop sticking up for your fairy boy boyfreind! if thats a guy then he is definatly queer!

  • @tylerkoolkid ahaha, douchebag, listen to the music

  • @tylerkoolkid I find this music rather good.

    

  • desperately romantic & powerful.

  • Disturbing, very disturbing. Yet completly and utterly brilliant

  • raw

  • so so beautiful

  • Is the vocalist the songwriter? Cause his voice is absolutely PERFECT for these lyrics.

  • @lerchogre09

    yes my friend, He is a true artist.

  • I had heard this for the first time ever live tonight. It was amazing.

  • i will never see her again. it follows me every day..

  • beautiful song

    wow

  • it's ridiculous how everyone can relate to this.

    Powerful.

  • Okay..So.. Frightened Rabbits are friggin awesome!! :D

  • Oh my god this song is amazing. Love Frightened Rabbit so much

  • 'or should we kick its cunt in?'

    i really didn't expect this line in this song, it was a pleasent suprise. But seriously this song is great. i havent heard any other stuff by these guys yet but if this is anything to go by il be very impressed. 9/10

  • Unreal lyrics... very sad.

  • i can't really describe how this song makes me feel. when i first heard it i guess it just hit close to home. really moved me. i think thats what makes a great song. something that was meaningful to the person who wrote it, in that way they can pass on the emotions and share them with everyone else. i can literally feel this guys heartbreak, makes me feel like im not the only one that has ever lost that person. good song.

  • @davidpwnsnoobs

    i'm in the same boat. it's hard to listen to it without feeling sorrowful. but it's so beautiful i listen to it anyway, even if it sort of hurts to do so.

  • @theaict

    i agree man, it really cuts ya deep. especially if you know where this guy is coming from. this was actually the first FR song i ever heard a little while back. it really made me love this band. i can always appreciate a good lyricist. its just a perfect song. if you like this song, check out the song Cynicism by Nana Grizol. you'd appreciate that one as well i think.

  • lead singer TOTALLY sounds like Adam Duritz from Counting Crows :O

  • I like this song so much*.*

  • On the first listen, this song was profoundly thought provoking - I wallowed in nostalgia. On the second listen I realized that something like this could only be written by someone who's had their heart cut out and burned. On the third listen I pondered the possibility of this music being shared among those who dwell in the spiritual realm. Perhaps music like this is not meant for our ears to hear. I am glad it is.

  • @jonclogger Put brilliantly. I was attempting to write something similar, and couldn't. But you have wrote what i wanted to say. Cheers! :L

  • @jonclogger i totally agree. the words are so piercing and unrelenting. hes just putting exactly how he feels out there. it really almost hurts listening to it.

  • @jonclogger "On the third listen I pondered the possibility of this music being shared among those who dwell in the spiritual realm." That would be really profound if it actually made any sense. It's a great song, just leave it at that.

  • @at4550 I have a hard time being shallow - don't lose any sleep over it.

  • @jonclogger I like this comment every time I come to listen to this song.

  • @jonclogger After reading your comment, I vomited a little and then pooed my pants. And then sat in it.

  • @stavrosmaginty I didn't realize 94-year old people listened to youtube. I'll try to be a little more considerate of that next time.

  • Comment removed

  • @jonclogger This comment is perhaps the greatest comment i have ever read on youtube,i love you..alot <3

  • @jonclogger fit? you serious? cammyy doon lad.

  • @jonclogger right on man

  • @jonclogger your opinion of this song is by far the very best ive heard.

  • Comment removed

  • @jonclogger What the fuck are you talking about?

  • @jonclogger And on the three-thousandth listen, this song was just as good as it always has been.

  • @jonclogger or its just a good song ¬_¬

  • @jonclogger Or its just a good song ¬_¬

  • @jonclogger What in the name of god are you talking about? It's a song, a piece of art. Stop putting it on this supernatural pedestal and just enjoy it!

  • @jonclogger On the first listen, I listened to the song. On the second listen, I listened to the song. On the third listen, I listened to the song and didn't take myself so, so seriously.

  • @jonclogger

    So you're saying you like the song?

  • you can sing this song while crying,

    most vocal tones can't handle cry/singing

    which makes this one of my favourite to sing

  • saw them at the abc last night and this tune was one of my favourite live performances from anyone ever.

  • Doofus

  • the vocals fit the music besides i would prefer something real like this than some shitty "professional" singing
