  • Das ist Hammer(:

  • amazing voice, also live.

  • This shouldn't have dislikes.

  • Sweet acoustic version! It's sweet, clean, and simple. : )

    ~ Jethro.

  • I love how Henry Rollins can feature Death Cab one one show and Blood Brothers the next. He knows good music, and knows good music doesn't discriminate.

  • guy sounds great live. and my friends get on to me when i bob my head while playing like this guy was doing. me and him are just going with the rythem

  • you can't find nothin' at all if there was nothin' there all along

  • I love that they still sound amazing live. <3

  • Damn, I could watch this forever.

  • what i love about death cab is .. there music isnt about sex , drugs and partying 9like all other songs)

    and they dont use autotune!

  • @SuperBassist96 Well... all except for "We Looked Like Giants"... But it's so awesome, we'll let it slide ;)

  • @GIRiiIVlY yes thats true

  • @GIRiiIVlY ROFL i totally agree. I was actually discussing this topic with my friend and we were talking about how death cab can sing about sex without being disgusting and offensive. Not to mention inappropriate. :) and they don't have reoccurring theme about it either. you know what I mean?

  • @hippiegirlsmile Yupperz! xP

  • @GIRiiIVlY Yuppup!!! XD

  • microphones used in the studio??

  • fuck yeah! i have the top comment with 75 thumbs up! :D

  • Yes! Gosh, I recently saw them in concert, and when they played Crooked Teeth I was freaking out. FOREVER LOVELOVELOVE.

    And, uh, guys, can we not compare DCFC to other bands? You can't expect people to respect you when you start flaming on other groups.

  • 3:01 - 3:05 whata retard haha

  • Suck Cab for Emos.

  • @snoobeagle why you hatin on Death Cab?

  • six people think the vocal looks like dwight schrute from the office

  • The bad thing about this video is that you can't hear Chris Walla's guitar AT ALL

  • @VCUmsk you can a little bit around 2:30

  • @VCUmsk

    i can, am i crazy? hes playing the bass line

  • Comment removed

  • he's reading the lyrics from a teleprompter. you can see the screen reflected in his glasses. ha, made ya look lol

  • @timin770 nice gag. but since you mention it, i dont see whats the problem. i've seen videos on youtube where people complain about that. david bowie does it. no biggie. (btw i DO know you were joking, but just thought i'd share)

  • @BornAgainBabyJesus Me either,and even if the artists did use teleprompters, would you rather them mess up the lyrics or glance at a screen you can't even see.

  • We love Mediaoutletonline for doonnlooading fffreeee tuunes such as this one! Yall can search it using Google.

  • I miss long hair chris

  • 3:00

    

  • does anyone know what kind of Microphones those are????????????

  • What a great song.

  • Death Cab + Rollins....Can't go wrong.

  • I love this song. I think at least a few hundred of the views are me. :D

  • Ben is a legend

  • what's the strumming?

  • Walla's microphone placement is atrocious.. you can barely hear him in the mix (not his fault).. what a shame.. oh well.

  • Whenever I watch 500 Days of Summer I think of DCFC

  • Does anyone know how Ben plays that pre chorus section in chords. I've watched his fingers over and over and cant get it.....

  • @biggs3004 I'll be honest, I only know the album version one, not the chords. Maybe check 911tabs.

  • @RyomaFuji I looked it up, and found a performance tab. Thanks man..

  • @biggs3004 'Tis welcome~ Anything to help another DCFC fan! Its a very good tab site.

  • Does anyone know how Ben plays that bridge section in chords. I've been trying like crazy but can't get it right????

  • What do you think this song is about?

  • epic....new album will be resplendent

  • I am a great fan of Ben, DCFC, The Postal Service and stuff, but I still don't get that hatred towards Owl CIty / Adam Young. That dude is also talented, maybe not quite as Ben, but he still makes good, easy, optimistic music that I like listening to.

  • I could listen to this everyday of my life

  • lol@ 2:30 it zooms into the lead/backup guitarist like hes gonna play something sick but then ha just fails and cameraman moves on.

  • @thema6ician I fail to see this at all... he didn't fail and the cameraman did nothing of what you said at all.

  • @himynameischris15 You FAIL at seeing then... You're obviously in love with the Justin Beaber backup...

  • @thema6ician That's Chris Walla, how dare you call him Justin Bieber... he has more talent in his one finger than Justin has in his whole body. Fuck you.

  • @himynameischris15 Thus confirming your gay man love for Justin Bieber and the lamer backup guitarist...

  • @thema6ician You're the dumbest fuck ever to live... why are you even commenting on this video if you hate it? And I still don't see what Justin Bieber has to do with anything. and how am I gay because I think Chris Walla is talented?

  • @himynameischris15 Ok now youre just my fanboy, in love with Justin Bieber; while beating of to naked photos of Chris Walla, worlds sorriest guitarist/your bf. Jesus is a myth too guy. Open up your eyes. -_-

  • @thema6ician you both need to calm down. We all know Chris is gay for Ben.

  • @thema6ician I don't like Justin Bieber, where is this coming from? This all started because I told you that your comment made no sense... You and ChasHolling are fucking retarded.

  • @himynameischris15 @ChasHolling

    YOU ARE BOTH GAY/RETARDED/JUSTIN BIEBER LOVERS

    STFU YOU ARE BOTH JOKES

  • @maddogx55 ...? fuck yo couch nigga

  • 6 people have crooked teeth

  • DCFC=bliss

  • I can't live without DCFC. Geniuses!

  • Ben can certainly rock a Russian sailor shirt.

  • amaaazing... though is it just me or does his head bopping, eyebrow lifting and mouth movement really resemble kermit the frog?? xD

  • @JamBooBxx  I see what you mean xD

  • @JamBooBxx

    Kermie has no eyebrows!

  • They sound so good live. :)

  • @iobserveutube that's cause death cab doesn't use autotune. c:

  • LOVE IT.

  • look at that! he can go that high without autotune! Thats real talent boys and girls. go to hell adam young.

  • @iobserveutube Actually, Adam Young uses auto-tune to compliment his electronic music. He can hit the high notes without it, but he auto-tunes his voice to suit the sound of his music.

  • @iobserveutube Oh, and, Ben seems to have a penchant for performing this song live with a pitch-correction effect on his mic, so, sorry to burst your bubble twice.

  • @Musicaltyler dont come on this video and try to defend adam young and belittle ben gibbard. adam yound will never ever be comparable to ben's genius.

  • @iobserveutube You obviously completely misunderstood my intentions. I only commented to show that your statement was entirely false. I never said that Adam Young was comparable to Ben. I entirely prefer Death Cab to Owl City.

    I wasn't belittling Ben Gibbard either. And you're an idiot if you think I'm not allowed to defend Adam Young with logic while you spout false garbage and get angry when someone civilly disagrees with you.

  • @Musicaltyler when will people learn that preferences in music are just that, PREFERENCES. its all relative to the individual, pure speculation

  • @BigBrothersWatching2 Why the hell is that even a reply to me? =/

  • @Musicaltyler honestly, no idea man. blame it on the mary

  • @Musicaltyler no, he doesn't.

  • @iobserveutube He's a better song writer too. He has substance while Adam young just has a fetish about banging chicks in candy wonderlands

  • @Facejamin Have you ever heard an Owl City song? 

  • @Facejamin And Fireflies doesn't count, because that song is retarded.

  • @iobserveutube He's nothing compared Matt Bellamy.

  • @21stCenturyDeadline i don't like muse. i cant listen to them without feeling stupid. no hate toward you but give me ben gibbard any day. you can have matt bellamy tho.

  • @iobserveutube Hell yes.

  • @iobserveutube

    Ben Gibbard is amazing, but those notes aren't very high. Also, I'm sure Adam Young never asked to be compared to Ben Gibbard (that would be asking for failure) so he doesn't exactly deserve being insulted for it.

  • @jakeaaronandtheboys he should have thought about that before trying to take the postal services style and ejaculating glitter and fireflies all over it.

  • @iobserveutube

    Well, I never really considered their music to be similar in any way. But I enjoy your comment.

  • @iobserveutube i totally agree, cept i think adam young is super talented. bash on someone else.

  • @iobserveutube newer versions of autotune can be run live and can not be heard. The autotune you're refering to is obsolete and is only used as a vocal effect. Not saying he used autotune here, just saying you wouldn't know if he did.

  • @iobserveutube It's possible to appreciate music without bashing another person.

    I love Death Cab, Postal Service, AND Owl City.

    It's music no need to insult someone else for no reason.

    Everyone creates their own music in their own image. If you like it, awesome. If you don't, coolio that's no reason to tell someone to burn in hell.

  • @TheReadySetOwnsMee I found the comment you're replying to hilarious and possibly true but I agree with you too :) I just happen to like Death Cab more. But to be honest, I used to listen to "vanilla twilight" ALL THE TIME. i dont really anymore. I cant wait to see dcfc in concert!

  • @iobserveutube Erm excuse you? Ben Gibbard is awesome, no arguments there, but that's no reason to dis Adam Young. Just because he uses autotune doesn't mean he isn't talented. Please keep your condescending comments to yourself and respect other people's talents and ambitions.

  • @iobserveutube Do you actually call that a high note?

  • @Octxxxx yeah i do so fuck off.

  • Henry Rollins fucking rocks!!!! Yeah!!!

  • Great performance..even though Ben left out "Woo hooo oh ooooohhh"

  • they remind me of panic in the early years.

    you know, before panic started sucking.

  • @demonofturks thats because panic was in 6th grade when this band started, check out The Postal Service, Midtown, Alkaline trio, fuck I mean PATD.....wow man, more like Panic wishes it could have Bens talent.

  • @scootsmacgee panic isnt really a bad band at all. im not of a fan of theirs but they still have talent

  • Amo esta cancion!!! grandeeeee Dead Cab!!!!! son lo mejor! =)

  • There good but not my style

  • i'm impressed.

  • I love love love love love love love you :) and this song acoustic.

  • @katieCHAOSlynne its my ringtone ahaha

  • lol same here i tried learnin this song on the acoustic....i ended up comin up with my own sht

  • This video made me like Death Cab For Cutie.

  • Comment removed

  • i have to learn this!

  • everything about this video is just beautiful

  • everything about this song and performance is genius. 

  • I love how they sound exactly the same live as on the record. Proves they don't use autotune. :)

  • I miss fat Ben =(.

  • @dsquall Fat Ben makes me feel really good about myself, because I have a similar body type. :P

  • @dsquall we all do...(-_-) ...but hey, at least the musics still amazing! ;)

  • I love this because he is just as good live if not better live than recorded he is just a genious. Pure amazing.

  • the ability to scratch your nose in the middle of a song is not serious skill...serious skill is the guys ability to songwrite...

  • Ben reminds me of an owl.

  • @LIVEHANNAHLIVE I dont know why, but this made me crack up.

  • The part where he says you can't find nothing at all if there was nothing there all along, reminds me of the movie 'a beautiful mind'.

  • For most bands, the hits are the songs that are the worst. Once you become a deep fan of any band, you start to see the less popular songs as hidden gems that are the best. However, for Death Cab, all songs are gems. Even the hits. I can proudly say, after listening to ever single Death Cab album released, this is still my favorite song. And this acoustic version is just bliss.

  • @Swiftlygothedays thats a bad analysis. the hits are the songs that were the best on the album, otherwise they wouldn't be hits. a lot of "hidden gems" just arent that big of hits because the radio isnt allowed to play songs with a certain pattern, its hard to explain.

  • ben is insanely talented. (obviously)

  • chris walla :DD

  • wow, this band is pretty good. Amazing music and the lyrics are out of this world... wow! no doubt this guy has a great voice.!!! but in that new song, "meet at the equinox" the lead singer looks soooo diff, is that the same guy as the one singing here?? cuz he looks sooooo diff....

  • He has a voice that doesn't sound human, like its surreal.

    I love it.

  • jesus christ i want to know what chords ben is playing, there is literally know correct ones anywhere

  • holy manatee finally a singer who doesnt sound like a dying turtle

  • i love you for that comment,

  • @ricejuicebox hahaha that is so funny!! holly manatee!!

  • wow this dude actually has a good voice.

  • Awesome!

  • I know that for acoustics he has two J45s (one in natural and one in sunburst) but i still can't identify this model. It seems to be a gibson, i caught a glimspe of the headstock and i think i saw a vintage style gibson decal. However I'm not sure how many of such vintage? GA/GC/OM type guitars they make, seems kind of limited. Ben fits it with an M1 in his later shows but he seems to be using an L.R. baggs element pickup so I'm guessing gibson

  • it is a stella made by harmony. I have no idea where you can buy them but i'm positive that thats what it is

  • Ya I think you're right about that, That should be Chris's archtop but i'm currently trying to look for the flat top acoustic ben is using here.

  • does anyone know what model is Ben's guitar

  • postal service was better

  • Ha, no.

  • its his original band, DB

  • What guitar is Ben using?

  • I believe he's using an acoustic guitar.

  • you cant hear the other guy.... D= but good song

  • @TatumEatsU i can hear him :]

  • @authcapper - the real shameful thing is that you have nothing better to do than criticize someone who is obviously better than you

  • wow defensive, I was merely making an observation, and you're definitely right he is a 100% better musician than myself, but as far as other aspects of life—doubtful.

  • Comment removed

  • If you're trying to make a point, please be more clear and maybe use spell check? I would love to make sense out of what idiotic thought you're trying to display.

  • Someone teach this fool how to spell.

  • @jonverstr8 i agree,dcfc is awesome!

    :D

  • No wonder Ben hooked Zooey Deschanel

  • yeah ahah too bad though, she was a hottie.

  • Goes off tempo a few spots :P

    Eh... Ben aint a God, but man is he close :P

  • Yay!!!! DCFC is from Bellingham!!! They rock my socks off!!!!!

  • Chris walla is also very much the man.

  • if i was the other guy id be pissed. Thats how bad it is, no one knows his name lol. He just sits there with ben gibbard the one man band.

    thats why we love him.........

  • chris walla

  • haha. thank you!

  • It's Chris Walla which everyone knows

  • @RyoSanadaOfWildfire clearly you know nothing about death cab for cutie, chris produces the record, did the early artwork and more or less is death cab for cutie as much as ben is.

  • ben, i love you.

    marry me ?

  • Excelente banda !

  • musica mt boaaa *-*

  • chris semi looks like jay farrar here

  • They're so great. I reaaallly want to see them live

  • lol 2nd guy looks like he just woke up

  • I like the acoustic version better then the electric.

  • me too. thats why i learned to play the acoustic version

  • No...

    It's a Death Cab song.

  • absolutely wonderful. ben gibbard is god :)

  • beautiful
