@tet0s4brawl Better than not being known for anything, I suppose. And the fictional character has brought people back to them... I'd have never found them otherwise.
I never heard of this band until three days ago but they reminded me alot of Velocity Girl. But I like them more. I think I have listen to this song 40 times since I first heard it.
O.O just think about it, a movie inspired in a comic book inspired in this music inspired in a real person named scott pilgrim (theres gotta be a real dude that inspired this song...) wait i think ubisoft released a video game based on the movie!!!
so now its like a game based on a movie based on a comic book inpired on a song inspired on a real person named scott pilgrim..... woooooow (my head hurts...)
so happy i found this band! oh and why does everyone think that she says i'll fight you for thousand years? Did those stupid ear buds destroy everyones hearing or is the sound quality really that bad?
@ugotztabeekrazee possably. But dont think bad about the ones who learn "after" cause without Scott Pilgrim the band would have been forgotten to the new generation where nobody finds out otherwise.
@ugotztabeekrazee Yes, But without it the song/band would be lost to the new generation. So thank the movie for helping so many ppl find the band.(Personally i think its ok at best, repetitive lyrics and pointless pauses dont make a song)
This was a surprisingly good music video. It didn't need some fancy shots and big budget special effects. All it needed was two cars and a handful of people.
I remember when this came out back in the day. I thought she was saying "I'll fight you for ten thousand years, ten thousand years" which kinda goes with the rivalry in the video. Love the guitars. I find it again every few months and play it over and over.
@geassguy2 LOL, I think he just had this a idea and got the name from this song, and came up with an epic story from it, with indie music (the genre of this song), and nostalgic video-game references...... The man's awesome..
@geassguy2 Basically Scott waited for the perfect girl (Ramona) all his life. Thus he liked her since before he even met her. The thousand years isnt to be taken literally.
Geek shit: The guy who inspired this song was called Scott Ingram which can explain (if you read the Scott Pilgrim comic) why at some point Scott and Todd both play bass, dated the same girls and both cheated on their girlfriends at some point. And they wore almost the same shirt (only the number featured changed) at the race in Honest Ed which gave me a hint that maybe they were to be compared. Ended up they have allot in common, including awesomeness.
This song should be taught in schools. Not only does the riff slay, but without saying much, the lyrics perfectly capture what it is to be fractured over a feeling. Vital stuff right here.
@BioHazardBlaze27 a song inspired a comic. a comic inspired a movie. a movie inspired a game. a comic, a movie, and a game inspired a youtube comment. a youtube comment inspired a reply. lolol
