    lol every time I see their name it reminds me of when my friend and i were on the train. And as he was looking through my ipod he said out loud "you are obsessed with black kid's songs" and everyone looked at us funny.

  • i think you have it backwards

  • Song currently use in a Ebay ad in France.

    Great song !!

  • Måste vara den ballaste musikvideon jag sett!

  • ahhh i love this video!

  • I like this song and video but dont know the point of it, someone want to infomr me of it? lol

  • well i did see a shot of a myan temple after "Black Kids" came up with a triangle above the lettering. the lyrics mention apocalypse so i'm pretty sure the song is about the 2012 theory about the world ending. it's gaining attention because of the movie and the fact that we're getting closer to the infamous date: December, 21st, 2012. i'm pretty sure this song is just about the future and what's to come next. it's pretty sweet

  • wow thanks, thats alot of thought and inside put into a video/song

  • Actually I think you're right, at first I thought it was just to show different old cartoons, but now if you listen to the lyrics like "When the lock says stop, we're all gonna drop" and "Look at me when I rock with you sure, I know it's apocalypse".

    Maybe what they're getting at is how far we've come, from old cartoons, something so simple, and then to spaceships, but that now it's all going to end with the Mayan prophecy.

    The Mayan prophecy of 2012 idea is from that temple they show.

  • And the triangle above "Black Kids" in the beginning is representing the lxil which is a group of Mayan descendants. The leader of the Mayans during the time the Mayan Calendar was created was an lxil.\

    P.S. "lock" in my last post is meant to say "clock".

  • Also when she says "All you wanna hear is Gabriel's Trumpet" that is referring to the archangel Gabriel who came down from the heavens to speak to Muhammad, the creator of the Islamic religion(much like Christianity's Jesus).

    When the archangel Gabriel blows his trumpet that means that Judgment Day has come a.k.a. the apocalypse.

  • i think the temple is actually out of mysterious cities of gold seein as the whole video is based on 80s cartoons

  • i dont know if this is some dumb christian song or some really awesome song... but im leaning to the latter... i guess its dumb..

  • Wow! First time I've ever heard this band and I am (Not easily Impressed) truly impressed. This song has made my day! I love it, from the groovy bass riffs, to the energetic drum beats, to the girls and their sexy little voices. PERFECT!

  • hes got a beautiful voice

  • wicho rock's

  • Down and Ali are kind of sexy, they have a lot special beauty and charm, I think

  • OMG. They sure did pay homage to the great 80s cartoons. Dungeons & Dragons - Silverhawks - Galaxy Rangers - Pole Position - Voltron - Bionic Six - Ulysess 31 - Denver the Last Dinosaur - Thundercats. The only one I'm surprised they didn't use was Jem. Still, this has got to be my favorite video of the 2000+ years

  • they also included speed racer

  • Why didn't I hug Dawn when I had the chance? She's beautiful

  • she is cute bad girl lol

  • thick chicks...yummy

    >,>

  • I love how this video and the music is a call back to 80s new wave. there's also some references to 60s psychedelic in there, I'm sure...but together with the knowledge that it's 2009 it's just awesome. hurray for retro.

  • I dig this!

  • love the beginning! it's like dungeons and dragonssssss

  • I love you Freshy Girls and Boys¡

  • Come to NY again!

  • It looks like there might be some influence from Cities of Gold too! Does anyone besides me remember that show??? It was one of my favs. I guess I am showing my age.

  • Reggie and his sister are of Filipino and African American descent

  • WOOOOW!!! SUPER COOOOL 8)

  • this video gives me orgazms...and the lyrics itself speak of secks ( o w o ) ooooooh I just wanna jam to this all the timez!!!!!!!!!

  • WOW! Their whole Video is based on some of my favorite 1980s cartoons, each scene is taken from the following toons: Dungeons and Dragons, SilverHawks, Thundercats, Bionic Six & M.A.S.K., just to name a few! Amazing! I wonder if anyone under 30 years knows that?

    Graig, ceo of: Beyond Comics. TV

  • Yes! I do!

  • I live for this song!

  • Comment removed

  • Well I read an interview and the lead guy says he and his sis are black. Maybe they are biracial (black + ?). IDK

  • they are mixed> Dawn and I went to school together. We're actually friends so I know them personally and they are mixed...plus they just wanted to have an odd name for a group! It work don't u think??

  • seen them at the echo areana with the chiefs and they were awsome

  • this is my favourite video ever.

  • black kids best single yet!!!

  • I love this frickin song!!! I also love the lead singer he's soooo cute

  • I also think that the leader singer is so so so so cute!!! I love him. And I love his voice...

  • love love love this song and video :]]

  • is it just me that thinks the lead singer is cute? :L

    this song is about the end of the world isnt it?

    'when the clock says stop were all gona drop'

    'all you wana hear is gabriels trumpet'

    ?

    love it,

    never gets old :)

  • The song is sort of about the end of the workd it hink. It seems like there is a girl that the main character is messing about with a girl but she isn't going all the way. She is Christain maybe and won't give it up because of her beliefs. And I think he's trying to use her belief against her to get laid.

    Just my take on the song. Got it from the lyrics on the side.

  • omg this song is awesome and i love the video its so like WTF IS THIS!?! in a good way lol

  • This is def the best BK song! and awesome video!

  • What is the cartoon which inspired 1:45 ?

  • I don't know but it's so familiar Isn't it. Some of the stuff is from Thundercats, Silverhawk, LoneStar, Bionic Six, so I'm guessing everything else is from cartoons from the 80s. There is obviously some Tron mixed in there.

  • the begining its from dungeons and dragons

  • The blonde Girl was suppose to be Speed Racer or something

  • a good mix of many things you can't dislike

  • amazing♥

    I LOVE THE BLACK KIDS :)

  • i'm in love...

  • Kind of makes me think of 80s music, which I love very much!

  • The 1st time I heard Black Kids I was like "Hell Naw", but now I'm loving their music. It's different from what I'm used to but, Wow.

  • Rad video

  • the solo bass is awesome

    its very good

  • Does anyone else think that the beginning remind them of the intro to the DnD cartoon

  • The part at 0:59 is actually taken from the intro of the 'Pole Position' cartoon.

  • AMAZINK

    xxx

  • YUKK!

  • Mysterious Cities of Gold...

  • its titled "when i rocj WICHOO" which it ouwld sound like, if you were to usually jus let roll off tongue--though when he sings, he goes outta his way to pronounce the TH in with.... jus an observation. dig the song regardless, and vid.

  • and the flying cars are from MASK

  • this is a great song....mgmt is awesome too

  • I love this band. I love this song, and they are EXCELLENT live!

  • There's no air in space, its not a good environment for bringing up children

  • the singer sounds just like robert smith

  • Electro Version of Boney M

  • they are the 'pop' music version of MGMT...........

  • of what?

  • this band called MGMT

  • ok ok sorry ;)

  • HUH! are you kidding....seriously

  • *.*

  • i love this song its well good

    were are they from they sound ded posh :P

  • They're from Florida lol.

  • Loving this, show uniqueness ppl!

  • Why is it called 'when i rock wichoo' when he clearly pronounces it 'with you'?

  • I was expecting it, and was disappointed... was so ready to sing along with 'wichoo'

  • i like this song very mucho !!!

    kinda dark lol

    if you think about it

    gabriel's trumpet

    were all gonna drop

    i still loveeeeee this song though<3333

  • Me thinks aquilesrva needs to read "The Beauty Myth" and just listen to the music. Chorus girls? They're 2/5ths of the bloody band.

  • why all these thumbsdown for being honest...

  • LOVE THEIR VIDEO ITS LIKE all retro and stuff this band is awsome I cant wait to see them live :)

  • They're good live. :-)

  • i agree with jonmufc BUT this band is an amazing band . i just realy dont like this song...

  • At some angles fucking Reggie looks like early 80's Michael Jackson. The dude is rocking the rainbow flag, but who cares cause they are a killer band.

  • It's a great song and a great band. Don't waste your time bad mouthing them. They're in a band doing what they like,making music. What are you doing putting them down?

  • good song

  • Muito bom \o ahahha!vem pro brasil

  • me encanta esta cancion :P

  • vid is so weird!

    like da song

  • COME TO BRAZIL SOON, PLEASE!

  • cool fun music!

  • You really are such a pesimistic bell-end. This is fun upbeat and different, when was the last time you heard a song like this or saw a video like this? They are a good band, if you don't like them then turn to another video, but don't comment on a video slating a band that is ultimatley making a massive change to the music industry. Oh and furthermore, another one of their songs that came out this year has over 1 million views so I reckon they're pretty popular.

  • the last time i saw a video like this was that hideous daft punk song, which was just as bad. and the last time i heard a song like this was probably one that was playing at my 4 year old brother's birthday party.and a massive change to the music industry? they all look like they've just walked out of fucking topman, how can they be a progressive band? they're just the same as whatever nme's 'cool' band are this week. each to their own i guess, but i question your idea of progressive music

  • Okay, so the vid is just a ironic basis of Saturday morning cartoons like Thundercats/XMen/Speed Racer. The whole theme is supposed to be a send up of the 80's. Not cool but that's their prorogative:)

  • which topman do you get those fucking bunny suits from?! :O

  • they're brilliant live i saw them at the junction in cambridge (:

    love em x x

  • Black kids always make epic videos.

  • i love this song so much.

  • This reminds me of Gundam, Tron, Heavy Metal, and something from the 80's I can't name at this time.

  • It's heavy on the He-Man and a little Conan too.

  • its about the music, not what they look like.

    ;get a life x

    ace song. ace band :) x

  • I like the lyrics! true love waits for everyone, and once it's found, it never breaks.

  • This is a bad song. Boyfriend and Hurricane Jane are better. Even though HJ is a rip

  • thats harsh. they're all great, this is way mopre upbeat anyways. if you listen to it a lot you'll be addicted.

  • there good....but da lead singer looks lyke a supa fag

  • post your picture on here so i can rate how much of a fag you look,,i bet he gets laid 10 times more than you can dream about ,, twat

  • Because of all the drunken hipster tweens?

    True, it doesn't matter what the lead singer looks like, but he's putting himself in the public eye so he should get used to people discussing his appearance.

  • silverhawks, galaxy rangers, dungeons and dragons, mask and thundercats

  • AMAZING new band. I love this song!
