Guided by Voices - "Glad Girls" TVT Records

[meguuuuusta]

Can anyone tell me what episode this song plays?

[gmansi]

@meguuuuusta 4x22 Right Place, Right Time at the end

[h3yd000]

Thumbs up if How I Met Your Mother brought you here, you know the difference between your and you're, capitalization is your friend, and you could possibly become a fan because the band sold rights for it to be used in the show...;)

[quiet451]

I hate How I Met Your Mother, but they must play some good music 'cause they are referenced in top comments of a lot of videos I watch.

[aiteefore84]

WTF! How I met your mother brought you here and your proud of that?? SMH

[gmansi]

@aiteefore84 yes!

[aiteefore84]

@gmansi Than once again SMH

[hippowithagun]

am i the only one who is a fan of both? lol

[MonkeyKing300100]

i suddenly wanna run all over the place hugging random people

[slpkntmaggot22]

thumbs up if how i met your mother didnt bring you here, and your an actual fan!

[slpkntmaggot22]

thumbs up if how i met your mother didnt bring you here, and your an actual fan!

[diskochimp]

Nice song, naff video.

[wpod64]

There have been good American bands in the last 20 years. But almost all of them have been Indie.

[FloriMori100]

heard this song in "how i met your mother" and i like it

[cjurbs]

local radio brought me here!

[aussiegamr]

*Runs Down street randomly hugging people*

[CF77777]

I LOVE THIS SONG!! MY NEPHEW, NATHAN WAS ONE OF THE GUITAR PLAYERS, TIM WAS THE BASS PLAYER ON THIS SONG. AND I'M ONE OF THOSE GLAD GIRLS!!!

[elfenliedelfenlied]

it wasn´t actually how i met your mother itself, it was the awesomeness of the episode the song appears

[zwalters58]

i go to the same high school that the lead singer graduated from :p



[Faltermeyer123]

How i met your mother :-)

[Salguine]

Ohio also gave us Devo, The Black Keys, Over The Rhine, Scrawl, and The Skeletons. Walk tall, my man.

[diegocombi]

pot song of its year

[Athleticsoholic]

i'm so upset. they are going to be in my town april 29 and 30 but it's 21+

[samvance98]

I always thought the lyrics were, 'Hey, black girls only want to get you high'. Totally changes the song.

[am5395]

@samvance98 lol the song is called glad girls how could you confuse that

[samvance98]

@am5395  I never knew the name of the song.

[splendidoyster3]

I wish I were cool enough to be rotoscoped

[nostalgikeren]

Is this recorded on reel to reel or cassette?

[mcdeathsquad]

@sprigofverbena Don't forget Devo!

[arcadestooge]

Had the pleasure of seeing them again for the "Classic Line-Up Tour"- I've missed this band so much since they hung up the hi-tops in 2004! LONG LIVE GBV!!!!!!

[JuicyMangos3690]

awesome song!! thumbs up if how i met your mother brought you here!!

[Britt18ify]

@JuicyMangos3690 I randomly heard this song playing in the mall and ran up to people and gave them all hugs.True story ;)

[Nilguiri]

@JuicyMangos3690

No, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney brought me here.

[onarole]

OMG!! CRAZY BINOCULARS!!!

[fockyoufockface]

I love how it's mixed in mono...so great. Fuck panning ...GbV knows that mono is REAL ROCKNROLL!

[pngilman]

@fockyoufockface just one thing; this isn't mono.

[sjdude]

@fockyoufockface - its not mono, actually. If you listen carefully, the rhythm guitar parts are mixed hard left and right, and are separate parts. Cheers :-)

[slpkntmaggot22]

GBV has helped me be happy on so many occasions. One cant help but smile at all of there songs. Bobs a genius

[lash570]

great song----but I love "run wild" - there's only one posting of it here

[TehHipstz0r]

literally the perfect summer song

[room1106]

get your comeback tour tix now....not may left!

[twispsalterego]

dear saint pollard,

are you getting the girls high or vice versa?

-the treefort assassin!

[kiely]

this is fantastic ... thanks for fixing the sync

[raymondj920]

Like this if you heard this from How i met your mother

[JustOneMeatPuppet]

@raymondj920 I think so, in what episode did this song appear? Seems familiar

[raymondj920]

@JustOneMeatPuppet The episode where before ted saw stella after she ran away from her. Like, season 4 episode 20? 2 episodes before the season finale. the song played when ted was hugging a bunch of random people who, if they weren't there ted wouldn't have met "The Mother"

[titsntots]

kipptumor, I'm the one who should be apologizing to you, and the rest of this great nation, for John Boehner.

[HDangerism]

I want to meet whoever concepted this video and HUG HIM!!! This is the ULTIMATE TRIBUTE to the "curvy" women of the world!!! All you salad eating, bony armed, stick figures should all meet up at KFC, and start pounding gravy! I love the women in this video!

[kipptumor]

@HDangerism Ha! Yes - round is good, man.

[tracehazarrrrd]

@HDangerism yes!!!

[bedspringkiss]

This is one of the best songs, ever!

[HDangerism]

From looking at the girls in the video, is a "Glad Girl" a THICK girl???

[GBVGBVGBVGBV]

Then Toxic, i hope u feel truely proud & honoured as u should be!

[vveq]

Great power pop. The animation looks inspired by The Beatles' Yellow Submarine.

[GBVGBVGBVGBV]

sprig, i may need directions from you... One day i will cross the Atlantic to complete my dream of seeing Bob play in his hometown. Saw them in Leeds, UK back in 2002. Most amazing gig of my life!

[GOTAX66]

Bob ... I have one Xmas wish..... Please get GBV back together and play Boston soon.

[Mallory888]

Used in "How I Met Your Mother" in a very positive context :)

[tracehazarrrrd]

awesome fucking video...

shit.

[sprigofverbena]

GBV is so awesome that they make me feel proud to be from Ohio. I can assure you, that almost never happens.

[raggajones12]

HAA!!! No shit

[kipptumor]

@sprigofverbena Well, I'm from Iowa and am ashamed that the only things that have come out of here are Slipknot and John Wayne. I was late in discovering GBV, but I really dig them - especially this tune. It reminds me of art school. Sorry about the John Boehner thing, man ;)

[karmisson]

@sprigofverbena GBV is so good it makes me proud to be from PA, which is next to Ohio.

[twispsalterego]

@karmisson if yr from pa yr not from ohio. sorree!

dont feel bad, im stuck in pgh now, after growing up in northridge!

[zachmasterzach]

@sprigofverbena awe, come on, you guys get GBV, Devo, and the Black Keys!!! I'm from Iowa and we only have shitty Slipknot! Count your blessings!

[CaptinPenguin]

@zachmasterzach and The National

[liamscokedealer]

@sprigofverbena that was such a cool thing to say :P hahaha

[blazer33x]

heard it on himym finally found it

[sexuallyawkward]

lol same!!!

[matt00000000000001]

GBV

GBV

GBV

GBV

GBV

[mattaki]

gbv's best post-classic lineup album.

[CrowesfanOK]

GBV has some of the most random songs ever......

Robert Pollard writes some awesome songs, this one's one of my faves.

[sqrlcub]

Hey, Eric Clapton, I only want to get you high...

[HDangerism]

Hey, Winona Ryder, I only wanna get you high...

[felipeehx]

i also heard it on HIMYM, awesome song by the way

[pinkplasticpen]

This song is awesome - and made even better because my last name is Glad.  :D

[samisgay05099]

I heard it on How i Met your mother aswell!

[kansas621]

I'm still shocked as ever that Stella is back on HIMYM.

[destiny66]

how lame was she though for what she wanted Ted to do? Turning into a HIMYM thread hahaha

[jillpickle8]

I ALSO herd this on how i met your mother. Fell in love! Awesome song!

[WolfTrainTV]

HIMYM!!!!!!!

[destiny66]

second fave GBV song, next to alone beaten and unafraid!!!!

[laskywhat]

was on HIMYM

[mamootek]

awesome song :))

[Nyk003]

Nice nice I heard it at HIMYM and i like it ;)

[prieudieu]

I have loved this song for ever but I never saw the video for it before now, this really makes my day. A big thank you to all involved.

[rmorte62]

GBV was so great live. Rock n roll lives! I love how it goes down to the Em or whatever at the end. It doesn't sound like September Gurls at all to me btw, other than both are hella catchy.

[mnetzer]

Everybody needs to "un-nerd" , stop trying to be so smart, and rock this. GBV rulez. Like it or not...... (and I know you like it!)

[MTBbeer]

So well said! ROCK N' ROLL! Much love from Philly thru Bob!

[freeblue22]

this is extremely similar to big stars' 'september girls'...

check it...

especially the bridge part

[GottiDaGoodfella]

not even. one's about 120 bpm, the other about 95 bpm. they are both power pop songs and both have "girls" (or gurls) in the titles. other than that...sorry

[sxysteve87]

is this a remake becuz the song sounds so familiar. and yeah that singer sounds like he is 80 years old otherwise the song is pretty catchy

[drygwelski]

It's not a remake, and the singer's pushin' about 50 and swigs from a liter of Jameson's on stage, and still rocks it out!

[wpod64]

Way to know nothing at all, "Sexy Steve". Robert Pollard is only the most significant singer/songwriter of the past 30 years, but he's old, so who cares - right?

[istartednothing]

this was Stevens video pick of the day. I'm a die-hard SURS fan so this is now on my favorites.

[instantprincewhippit]

it's a shortened version then the one on isolation drills, but it's still great

[Abaculus]

The girls are already high, and they want you with them! They are the ones corrupting you...not the other way around.

[MrPotatoesLatkie]

I think it's the glad girls themselves that want to get you high!

[RootDown18]

Anybody who thinks Isolation Drills sucks is on crack. Fuck, listen to the first half of the album and you'll know what I mean (tracks 1-8). I actually consider Alien Lanes one of their more sub-par efforts, but that's just me.

[Whatupwidat]

Pity the rest of Isolation Drills sucks balls...

[wipers75]

grande bob

gbv es lo maximo son geniales

[kiely]

can anyone say "outta sync" ?

[Bloodklot]

can anyone say mosaic filter lol

[OptionallySavage]

Which album is this off? I'm really getting into this band.

Aaaaargh so much good music to listen to already and yet I'm still on the lookout for more!

[BlankRegie]

"Isolation Drills", it's track 10.

[ppowerball]

You are a moron.

[ppowerball]

Or maybe I'm a moron for taking you seriously. Either way, I'd rather pointless moronity wasn't inserted into my enjoyment of this video. Save it for being cool at the bar. That's what I do.

[isabella293]

ppowrerball, I saw that comment on another vid, and I was scared.

[ppowerball]

Fair enough. I shouldn't judge. I'm sorry your world is so demon ridden.

[isabella293]

And I am soo sorry that you can't fight the urge to start a fight, you could have just marked it as spam and moved on.

[HumGuitar]

At 3:15, do I see butt crack?

[conbigote]

haha yes, if ya slow mo the video, ya can see the girl putting her panties down. Man this is such a great song.

[MrPotatoesLatkie]

This is now one of my most favorite songs, er videos.

[nowaverocker]

Great song i like it!thanx for posting

[kiely]

i liked it, the sync issues don't look to be YouTube related but it doesn't matter in any case. the graphics are great ... ya can't even tell if Nate is drunk yet.

[steplo01]

I think You're drunk...

[kiely]

not yet but i'll make sure i am if i ever try and WATCH the video and LISTEN to it at the same time. it is great video if ya do only one or the other.

[Tubesock1976]

It's like the best song Big Star never wrote. Well done, Pollard.

[mikedunnandthekings]

Amen, I always thought that about this song. Long live Big Star and GBV

[chillidogdupree]

Good point...Love this song, but one super small issue: could use some harmony in the "there allright"--like Big Star...

[RandomKoolzip]

Listen closely: there IS some vocal harmony on that part.

[antifolkhero]

Man does it make me happy to see people talking about Big Star on youtube. I'm a bit obsessed with Big Star and GBV. I've done covers of both of them on my channel. Check em out sometime if you get a chance. Thanks.

[jahtez]

Girls, psychedelics, and killer hooks...

Life is good!

[falconium]

Makes we want to start a band, such a grand song...

[pronkb000]

Um, kind of some sync issues there.

[heimerz]

kick ass
