    >"think deep you dumbasses"

    >Gives the most basic, shallow interpretation of the words

    Good job.

  • It means that person never knows whats best. Theyre smoking a cigarette, obviously they make poor choices while passing judgement unto others. Think deep you dumbasses

  • Never Knows Best

  • this song simultaneously reminds me of all the times I fell in love and out of love.. such a bittersweet sounding song, thanks for posting! FLCL foreverrrrr

  • All my cigarettes and joints say "Never Knows Best"

  • ya great seen and good song

  • never figured out what "never knows best" means

  • @d2cuadrados It's been too long, but if I remember properly, she was given a cigarette with that written on it, probably meaning to point out her actions throughout her life in general.

  • I think this song exemplifies a hangover. It starts with that feeling of "What the fuck did I do last night?" and works its way towards stability and hitting your stride again.

  • This makes a cigar taste a whole lot smoother.

  • Loves this

  • This song is incredible.

  • I listen to this on rainy days. it's so relaxing to hear.

  • Just watched the girl I love most and the only one I ever love walk away holding hands with her boyfriend. This song played in my head. It had to be raining out too just to make it worse. The image will never fade away.

  • It's awesome how one song brings out the rawness in people's emotions...

  • Just asked a girl who let me kiss her if she likes me. She said no. I like her a lot so it tore me apart to hear that. I immediately turned around, put my headphones on, played this song on loop, and walked away. It made me feel so much better. Thanks Pillows for helping turn my shitty situation into a less shittier one.

  • @bloc22 I feel ya man, I asked a really close friend if she felt the same way that I do towards her and the rejection blew me to pieces inside. Thank god I've got about 18 pillows albums on my ipod. Kinda softened the impact of it all.

  • The synth and the guitar just go so perfect >-<

  • 5 people don't like bran new love songs

  • Or like a panda with a mean face, or like sandals with pressure points drawn on them, or the smell of a blackboard eraser, or a Sunday morning where you wake up and it's raining. Well, I like her more than hard bread.

  • man makes you wonder what happened to music today ?

  • sittin if fort Lee missin my girl and this song is jus like a kick in the nuts...... still love the Pillows though

  • This song actually depresses me.....and it sucks cause I love this song.

  • @punxer321 Good music has that way of piercing through your soul, this song has an effect on me that i don't think anything else in the world could have.

  • uhh, smokings bad, mmk?

  • i love this song more than hard bread

  • Great

  • If you like this song, then go here:

    /watch?v=bZBmcSBoRAE&ob=av3n

  • u kno, no matter how screwed up the world is right now, smoking while listening to this song...makes me feel like it's gonna be all right.

  • learned the keyboard part, now im trying to get the acoustic guitar part :)

  • I never know what's best....until after I made the wrong choice. All part of being a FUCKING MORON I guess. 

  • the worst part about life is this: the nice guy never gets the girl.

  • @pwned1122 There are a lot worse things than getting the girl in life.

    I just go through every day like a dream, making my own decisions and waiting to wake up.

  • This song makes me think of my girlfriend :) just those late nights staying up with her

  • just broke up :( unfortunate as fuck, this song kind of help me feeling better for some reason

  • Know what this song tells me? Maybe your life isn't the greatest right now. Maybe something is wrong. But you know what? it'll get better.

    All you have to do is swing the bat.

  • ..... this song makes me feel sad but happy >.<

  • smoking "never knows  best" i think that's the message

  • @oss514 no -_-

    if you watched the show she writed her flaws on her ciggarettes sometimes

  • @pimpofdoom *Wrote

  • @PeaceLoveTofu88 <_< is that really neccasery?

  • @pimpofdoom Yes. Using proper English is necessary ^^ The more you know *spreads a little rainbow with her pointer finger*

  • @PeaceLoveTofu88 i personaly dont think it matters as long as you have intentions and as long as you get your message through. you clearly understood what i said and in the end i think thats all that matters lol

  • never knows best

  • This song came up once as I was pulling a contemplative all-nighter. Popped up on my laptop at about 3 am, I was just kicking back in a chair, feet up on the bed, writing. It was the perfect song for the time, and its now my favorite pillows song.

  • It's perfect in every way...

  • I think in one word, melancholic. This word is the only one that fits right. Lonely and full of regret, but glad you're alone, no one can hurt you.

  • I want to loop the beggining

  • @folred type repeat after youtube and before the .com in ur url. YOUTUBE REPEAT!!!!

  • No offense to you boys out there... but you all suck as boyfriends, try to be more caring and less aggressive......

  • @1Djavaa what.

  • @1Djavaa ...?

  • @lyzedpara exactly....

  • @1Djavaa how is there no offense in that? thats like saying "I mean no disrespect, but your mother is a whore"

  • @Dibifer12 mmk... Sorry. Didn't mean to take out my anger on you boys. Some of you guys are nice and some are not. There. I'm more specific.

  • @1Djavaa ya, you should pick your words more wisely... for instance, im a guy and I'm listening to this song to heal a broken heart... all you chicks out there need to remember: guys have emotions too... and I'm emo or nothin either.

  • @GearDragon5 Okay.... sorry for ur loss. *really really sorry* I didn't mean to hurt ur feelings or anybody else. Okay lemme say boys and girls out there who have been very mean or selfish to their relationships. Is that okay?

  • @1Djavaa I didnt take offense to it... and it looks like youve been getting alot of shit... I just have to stick up for myself... I can understand how you might have felt that way though. I'm sure you've had your end of crappy relationships. Love sucks... take it from Mamimi

  • @GearDragon5 Okay.... thanks!!!! <3

  • @GearDragon5 yup. im a very sentimental guy. the reason i say sentimental and not emotional is because things like death dont really even phase me, but once the topic switches to family or love its a whole nother story.

  • This reminds me of my relationship with my ex. It was so good in the beginning but one day it came to a crashing halt and everything stopped. The pain rushed to my heart as if a piece of the windshield went right through it. Here's to the a new start and to the Pillows :)

  • FLCL is awesome

  • If I don't listen to this song, I'll over flow.

  • @MajorFuriousPyro Good sign that you need to put down the joint.

  • @Dakukobura judge ppl much?

  • @TILF9000 It was a joke, implying that it was something that a high person would say. And yeah, I do judge people. For instance, I'm going to assume that you're stupid.

  • @Dakukobura have you even been high? your joke fails

  • @TILF9000 Smoke weed erryday ;D

  • can anyone name some bands or such with a style like this song?

  • @ImaginaryPanda The Pillows.  That's kinda it...

  • @ImaginaryPanda Some of my work is like this.

    I've also named my band to be Never Knows Best.

  • I try so hard to make this song fit my current life status. But I'm just dissapointing myself, Mamimi, Mamimi fans, and all of you.

    This deserves to be Mamimi's song... and all those who are going through the same struggles of life as Mamimi.

  • love both versions of this song...i always think of naota and haruko for their complex relationship :3

  • ive been tryin to find this song for the longest time.... and its as heartfelt as i remember it.

  • Found it. => This is the song in the new DVD's title menu. =>

  • what do I do with what this song makes me feel? seriously, somebody answer.

  • @capostatus64 it varies depending on you, you decide what to do with the feelings given by this song and accept those feelings, take a walk and decide what to do

  • @BloodCr0ss

    Watermelon, Or like a panda with a mean face*

  • !!

  • -An American boyfriend!

    ;^;

    NO! I MUST RESPECT DEAR BROTHERS PRIVACY!

    and then: shit got real.

  • this song makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside lolz :)

  • this song is amazing i cant tell you how many soul searching walks i did with this song in my head to hell with dust in the wind lolz

  • The last 25 seconds of this song makes me feel like I'm in love..

  • oh nice...

    beautiful song

  • I started listening to this song, then I just jumped on my yellow bike, rode to the highest hilltop nearby, and listened to this while i watched the sun set.

  • i want a love like the one in this song. it's hard to describe, even now, ten years or so after this song was composed and ages since i listened to it late one night, watching that anime. but this song carries passion, infatuation, innocence, sadness, loneliness, and then, out of that loneliness, comes love and hope. someday, maybe i'll find all of that in a guy, and he can find all that in me. just like in this song. just like in this anime.

    .....well, i like it more than hard bread.

  • I wish I spoke Japanese so I could listen to the full length. But...I cannot, so suffer I mut.

  • @dextergo1234 on animeultima you can watch the Japanese version with subtitles, or English dub

  • @username7880 already torrented whole season plus all OSTs thanks though.

  • naota's dad knew that mamimi came to the shop for naota not bread

    why does no one understand that? haha

  • This song makes me think of my first love...

  • i write my flaws on my ciggarettes now.

  • As much as I love this song, I just realized how much it sounds like Just Got Back Today by The Jennifers (1992)... it's eerie.

  • @fizixdrift I don't hear the similarity. :|

  • i used to smoke outside with this song playing on ma ipod lol. stil do

    . _.

  • random shit haha

  • I love the Pillows. This song is pure <3

  • Mamimi Samejima and my fiance` are almost exactly alike, I guess I fell in love with this character in more than one way.

  • Ta-kkuuunnn.

    Where'd you go?

    Sameji reminds me of me the most outta all the characters in FLCL, except I don't smoke cigarettes. ><

  • @HootyInWonderLand You are nothing like Mamimi. : D

  • @yirotogi yeah, i doubt she has a youtube account

  • i feel as though i've heard this song for one of those above the influence commercials.

  • I love this scene so much. It makes my heart pound with energy. ^_^ Fasinating!

  • P!!!

  • @BloodCr0ss one of the best scenes in the whole anime :) thanks

  • these are some pretty strong words..

  • @BloodCr0ss you forgot the watermelon part

  • In spanish, besides the real translation, curiously the translation could be "Nunca supo mejor", lo cual pega con el hecho de que esta en un cigarrillo :)

  • This song is so awesome. It just makes me want to chill lol.

  • I always listen to this song when I'm having a bad day. It makes me feel like everything is ok.

  • Never knows best

    But I know never

  • This instrumental guitar part at the beginning of this song reminds me of some old 90's Soundgarden song from one of their albums but I can't, for the life of me, remember what song it was.

  • @partyman6666 Not thinking of "Stand by Me" by Oasis perhaps? the intro chords are the same, first thing that popped into my head when I heard this. :3 But I don't listen much to Soundgarden so I wouldn't know.

  • @rathil It could be a Smashin'Pumpkins song that I'm thinking about actually... but I could have sworn it was Soundgarden. Definitely not that Oasis song, although that does somewhat resemble this too.

  • Natsukashi....Brings back some memories...I watched FLCL something like 10 years ago and the music just stays in your head somehwhere for all this time...Truly a bittersweet feeling, listening to this while going through your teen years a decade ago

  • @Lyesperanza umm FYi FLCL was out in like 05 lol but i hear what it is you are saying.

  • Umm, no...It was out in 2000

  • After all this time, I still love this song.

  • This song makes me feel sad in a good way, hard to describe.. Just makes me want to smoke a lonely cigarette :)

  • It tells the story of a relationship.

  • Mamimi is my favorite Fooly Cooly character, she is kind of one that i can identify with.

  • it makes me feel alone, but comfortable, like ive found a home

  • I always hear Mamimi exhaling her smoke just in time when the song picks up, like she does in the anime.

  • This song was made for loners...

  • @Nighting24

    and stoners.

  • Good times Good times.

  • Kinda reminds me of "Stand By Me" by oasis.

  • dont worry

    were all loners

  • Comment removed

  • ..the thing on the cigarette, not what i said, lol

    just didnt want to sound pretentius.

  • it makes me sad that this show was only 6 episodes long. it was so good.

  • yeah,i downloaded all the episodes from limewire, and now i watch them everyday. i think they should make a movie.

  • This has been my alarm tone for over 2 years

  • @mortimerjo

    God damn you.

    Probably the coolest alarm tone ever.

  • I can totally see that.

  • Why don't cigarettes ever break in animes?

  • because anime is to fucking epic like that

  • i never knew cigs broke.

  • Never Knows Best
