Andrew Bird - Anonanimal (Official music video)

[amhu127]

I just found out he's coming to nyc this may. Im rather bewildered with excitment.

[330nts]

not as good as the live at guthrie version, but fresh vid

[amhu127]

@330nts I felt the same way at first, but now im thinking this is better. Either way both versions are spectacular.

[LiveLaughLove97ish]

you should all check out this girls music video to this song. It is really amazing, it leaves me with an open mouth and i am speechless.

Her youtube username is hnbbrandom, it is really worth it. Hope you check it out :)

[MrCatherineadams]

most beautiful man in music



[seonfox]

I love.. LOVE.. this talented man. I saw him on a kid's show, Jack's Big Music Show or something, and had to Google it.. finally found him. thank you Nick Jr.

[svage98765]

if you watch the whole video on mute its a whole new video XD

[Frankryouko1]

This song's the work of a genius

[quadrophenic999]

my favorite andrew bird song. don't really understand it but love the word play and I just assign my own meaning to it. makes it kinda personal so it's nice that music lets you do that.

[cheeseballhaggis]

I have to say that this song is one of my favorites, from the time signature craziness at 1:41 to the assonance and consonance in the lyrics, but it would be much better if he pronounced "anemone" correctly.

[edennis1989]

Simply beautiful

[1andonly000]

I can't be the only one who thought Bill Nye the Science Guy

[Penaelo]

@1andonly000 You are not! =]

[youcallinmefat345]

... wait did he just drop acid 1:44

[pocketfulofroses]

1:48 awww how cute! Oh my, Bird is so incredibly incredible.

[wamow222]

I only listen to this song for 1:54 :]

[LemonScentedtnc]

See a sea anemone, the enemy see a sea anemone

And that'll be the end of me

While the vicious fish was caught unawares

In the tenderest of tendrils

[dadbernbullmess]

anyone else feel like this is what watching spongebob would be like on acid?

[Penaelo]

@dadbernbullmess I couldn't help but laugh at your comment. lol

[soccermaniac57]

It's a mix between spongbob on acid and robot chicken.

[roisinaturservice]

I know this one, I love this song :)

[GuMkAkAciK]

hell....how is it possible that the real artist are having so low views?

[antzachos]

@GuMkAkAciK

the real artist has no dislikes :)

[seonfox]

@GuMkAkAciK Listen.. if he was on the radio, or MTV, that would mean his music was crap.

[whaddupitsyaboy]

why isnt this in hd?!

[scooter3036295]

i could cry, i love him so much

[MsPipedream]

i live for the bass drop in this

[quitejaded]

@BlueOkapi I like the play on words with anonanimal and a non-animal :)

[neverlandnate]

0 dislikes? THATS WHATS UP.

[saiWicked]

0 disllikes.

[ScarletUK2010]

i bet this was made with suttin like bluetac

[mubear115]

REPLAY

[TheKquartz]

I feel as if there is a deep meaning to this song that I am too shallow to understand... Will you guys give your insight?

[xomegalooluvsuox]

@TheKquartz no i feel the same way

[Nowatermelons]

Beautiful

[rride1099]

I wish I cud see this in HD....beautiful.

[antigravity000]

I feel ya Andrew Bird. Sea anemones will surely be the end of me as well; I've a bio exam coming up on those damn cnidarians.

[quitejaded]

@antigravity000 Hah, me too! Exam tomorrow (today). Sea anemones will be the end of me x_x

[musichels]

Zoe stay off my account!! for the record, I, Chelsea, find it awesomely beautiful.

[01jarf]

retarded? try ¨creative¨..

[videostoshaz]

@musichels I guess you just don't understand.

[quitejaded]

@musichels Are you sure you're not retarded? Do you not understand what the video is about? Its about exactly what he's talking about. The anonanimal is evolving and de-evolving.

[Chronchitiss]

Underneath the stalactites The troglobites lost their sight Uh oh The seemingly innocuous plecostomus though posthumus They talk to us They talk too much See a sea anemone The enemy See a sea anemone That'll be the end of me Vicious fish was caught unawares In the tend'rest tendrils Underneath her tender gills and

[lucianoN96]

I saw this in originalskateboard's PR sessions

[sweptaway3]

@lucianoN96 I found this guy through that video too! gotta love Original!

[doggieGZ]

this guy likes sea anenemies

[Holmsen]

what a terrible edit of the song to fit the video, it's a great song

[THaREEFsYT]

omg i would imagine the beginning of life would look something like this =)

did he make this music video??

[iTzS14]

Choreo Cookies brought me here :D

[lindseyjunebug]

This is one of my favorite songs ever! but in the version I have on my computer I always stop it before the end because he sings along with the violin and it's way too operatic sounding... :/

[striker888]

asme el amor con esta cancion :S!

[loadedwatergun44]

Love this song and video. But every time i play it my cousin say's.... it reminds him of Eureeka's castle. =)

[johnr64]

Andrew Bird gets me, I don't know how and I don't care...his music is numinous.

[TheLesserMe]

Yeah the Lyrics are nonsensical sounding, but do you think He's talking about being adaptive to a relationship he's come to be happier? *shrug* it's hard to decipher... That's all I got out of it hehe.

[striker888]

bizarre and lovely

[johnnyplayer56]

Sweet... and to a previous poster, yea it is hard to understand him sometimes. I wonder if its intentional like Seal used to do.

[PancakeRunner]

I heard this on the radio and i freaked out because i couldn't decipher any of the lyrics and thought i wouldn't be able to find it, i only had, "i know this song i know this one"

[videograd2009]

Hold on just a second

Don't tell me this one you know

I know this one I know this song

I know this one I love this song

[Xianhoofd]

I love the song, but I don't like the official video. :(

[revilolee]

1:40

[joiless]

I spent pretty much this entire song going "Huh? The hell did he just say?"

[kidneycat]

oh.. I just adore Andrew Bird.

[WafflesTheElite]

HAHAHA! There's a cock at the end...

[Munkat69]

did anyone else notice that at the end when it show's the book 'Animals without Backbones' the black object on the front looks like a.. nuff said

[jetruhL]

a penis?

[JeffWilsonMusic]

Meeting Andrew Bird was the only time in my life I had to remind myself to keep my composure and not freak out. He's an incredible musician. Brilliant.

[1PurpleElephant]

You are freaking lucky!!!!

[gabo1604]

Am I the only one who has trouble understanding what he says?

[Penaelo]

Not the only one. I tend to mishear what he says most of the time.

[std2killer]

@gabo1604 what part did u not understand?

[foofeo]

@gabo1604 he writes his songs with more emphasis on the aesthetic sound of the words than the meaning conveyed, so i that is probably intended haha

[mmh72195]

@gabo1604 its about sea anename <--sorry if i spelt that wrong lol

[JohnsonBrand2000]

I edited the damn thing, and I still don't have a clue!

[JohnsonBrand2000]

I edited the damn thing, and I still don't have a clue!

[niketeam931]

@gabo1604

i thought he was speaking spanish..........

[rolf1304]

@gabo1604 He tends to mumble yeah

[JohnsonBrand2000]

@gabo1604 Ha! I edited the video and I still don't know what he's singing!

[MondrosenPrime]

Andrew Bird's Anonanimal has a seemingly nonsensical lyric but it's such a romantic song beyond comprehension. So magical.

[kittenmow]

[Penaelo]

I took and downloaded it from his Myspace.
