Weeds Theme Song

[german1033]

best intro song ever :)

[ChickennChopsticks]

It's all about clones man.

The suburbian place and the song it old.

It was in my anthro's textbook and it was made like years before weeds even came out. Which made me like the book alot better when I found it. =)

[kalasie7]

This song is ancient, it's from a different era, which is why it sounds like it does. Think retro. Duh.

[unlinkedthunder]

Hey, I everybody back in the day didn't have a voice this bad... I'm sorry.

[unlinkedthunder]

Even though I really like the show, this has got to be the worst opening song I have ever heard for a series. Even Lost has a better opening theme(as short as it is since it's basically just a couple of notes) than this grating almost cackling voice and the lyrics don't help.

[sharkredhat]

I don`t know if you got the message of the song, thunder, but if you listen (and watch) carefully, you`ll see the ordinary in people`s lifes, which is taken away bu the ... weeds, as the show reveals. In my oppinion is the best choice for "weeds" show.

[unlinkedthunder]

Doesn't change the quality of the song from being absolute crap when it comes down right to it.. Doesn't matter if the song's message is good, bad or pointless it is severely lacking from a vocal standpoint and likewise lyrically.

[ItWasTheChair13]

goodness your not even listening. this is a show about a small community, and the song is just poking fun at weeds becuase its not really a normal little community, everyone has a dirty little secret. sheesh

[unlinkedthunder]

Dude and your not reading I don't care if the song has a good messages, it still sounds like crap.. There are plenty of songs that don't have any messages in particular yet they don't sound this bad.

[antz1916]

wow someone who completely missed the message of the song.

[ericerzah]

<3

i love it

[getyoureggshere]

How funny--those houses (and people) all look like the ones in my own neighborhood.

I wish Nancy Botwin lived in my neighborhood.

[bryarworship]

the song has a beautiful message

[ericerzah]

me too

[geckfilms]

i love this show

[matt48842468]

Weeds is the most amazing show ever. I hope it never ends. I'm obsessed with it. I love it. I love the American dream, I love the corruption, I love the scandal, I love the characters, but above all...

I love its genuinuity.

[Croganhore]

Admit it. Everyone who sits here and say "OMG CONFORMITY SUX ANARCHY4LYFE" I would bet my right arm if you were offered a mansion with a hot wife and cute kids with a steady job, you'd take it and run like hell.

Diss them all you like, the little boxes are the dream.

[CalvinCoooolidge]

"dream" or "nightmare"?

Suburban sprawl kills the planet.

[JohnBontus]

Look at the first male jogger, he dissapears behind the second one.

[ShookOnespt2]

Conformity is what this song is about..ticky tacky? bullshit

[hybriddriver13]

maybe some of us have dreams if living in little boxes so you should go back to ur studio apart ment and try to sell those abstract art paintings u put together

[Dieselboy555]

Its a Grind is a real coffee chain in orange county

[misasfasise]

... and other places

[R0cky2009]

has anyone noticed the name of the coffee shop

IT'S A GRIND ...........I like that coool huh! Weeds rocks

[swazimo]

It's a chain here in Cali so it's not original to weeds, but ya it does rock

[jadekatz468]

awh man i was singing this all last night with my friend

[FranciscoBourquin]

Love this song! and weeds's awesome!!

[Arenal0]

wow that version of the song really sucks, i like the Rise Against version much MUCH better

[HackyMySack]

get outta here, this is the original fag, nothin better than the original

[Arenal0]

always nice to say you're oppinions on the interweb... theres always someone out there ready to call you a fag for no appearant reason

[KHearts16]

i love this theme song, I don't see it anymore on Weeds-nor do i see weeds anymore cause we got DISH & we don't get showtime-sucks. also my geography teacher was talking about this show and for the rest of the class i had Little boxes stuck in my head.

[justfillingtime]

Good to see some decent opening titles in a day and age where theme tunes and the like seemed to be forgotten

[mockduckcompanion]

excellent opening in all respects

[milk115]

somebody get ane brun to sing this

[daclick]

i find it depressing when you think of the lyrics.

[jersh21]

the truth can be

[iheartmatoaka]

its about the houses from Levittowns in they 1950's

[HIMrazorbladeromance]

why the fuck did they change the opening theme! the new ones are pretty gay and when your baked its just not as funny. granted shows are not based on their opening theme but still...

[babyreesse]

they changed it because they dont live in agrestic/majestic anymore so it would make sense since the songs is basically about agrestic/majestic...duh

but yeah i liked it better

[KDAWGx7777777]

yer all a bunch of poopyheads and i want some taco bell....mmmm

[millilein14]

I looooove it *-*

[mydwaja]

this serie made me start doing drugs :)

[oOvinceOo]

lol!

are you serious?

[andreleroux12]

It is my shower song!!!

[hoze187]

hahaha

[gmb1234]

I tried weed again because of it.....huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­uuuge mistake.

never felt so fucked up in my life....how everyone does it i'll never know.

[fshgjguhergbertyuihg]

youre a fucking pussy dude. weed only makes you listen to Phish, eat doritos and sit on the couch. its probably a mistake 4 u cus your a pussy and cant control yourself

[gmb1234]

You pegged me.....I'm a huge pussy who can't control myself.

[leguminoso]

good awnser, the guy or girl with th weird nickname (fshgjguhergbertyuihg) it is a bit annoying, "oh i am so experient! i can totally control myself on weed! this mean i do more drugs! isn't that cool? pleeeease let me be cool"

[fshgjguhergbertyuihg]

wow um first of all I DONT do other drugs cus there fucking stupid. Second of all I dont think im cool cus i smoke pot. I only do it for three resons:

1. Its relaxing and I dont stress out when doing it

2. It helps my eyesight cus my eyes are fucked up.

3. I use pot instead of cigarettes one because its safer, healthier, and not as addictive. and two why smoke something if you dont get a feeling off of it.

so get your facts right before you bitch about someone elses lifestyle. faggot

[mikusboy77]

yes u r right dude, fuck them people who smoke cigs and the chronic is good. God Bless

[oatsandmilk]

the song had nothing to do with smoking weed only idiot weed heads like u think that

[xmakatanakid]

this song is about individuality and rebelion, and what could be more deviant than casual drug use?

[carnage4907]

Why would we think it has to do with weed?

Does it mention weed? I'm a pothead and I'm not nearly as dumb as you lol...

At least I'm smart enough to listen to lyrics...

[oatsandmilk]

obviously you are the ignorant one the person i responded to stated that the song was saying fuck all the people who smoke cigars and the song is about conformity in general it has no specifics weed wise

[carnage4907]

I love mommy

[czarnick123]

Im a pothead too. Interesting how the stoner "losers" seem to be the only ones who know how to use punctuation around here.

[oatsandmilk]

I have friends who smoke weed and i think thier intelligent. However, I will reiterate that my orginal comment was done after reading the ridicilously stupid comment saying the song is only about weed and cigars. And btw this is a youtube comment area not my personal blog so I do not need to conform to perfect grammar and write as this is a place for just plain comments not proper grammar which for some people requires editing

[jazzmonkeycarpet]

you are a pussy. it id not that bad

[mollifers]

ahahahahahahahahahahahaha that rely sucks for you

[mydwaja]

yeah it really sux for me;) try it once like me and I bet u get addicted

[rjnovac]

This song sums up life that is for sure.

[sasarandon]

I'm suing because I have the have this song surgically removed from my head!

[ptcooney]

I agree...that fucking song is in my head driving me crazy.

[calzowned]

whats tickey tackey

[rosaliuzza]

Sorry about my english (I'm italian), ticky tacky is a chep material used to the construction.

[andreleroux12]

If your italian is poor make use of some translating service...just a suggestion

[rosaliuzza]

Well, this isn't simple because that services are very bad. I prefer to based on my little instruction XD

[mrnyinc]

[Origin: 1960--65; gradational compound based on tacky]

[mrnyinc]

1. The term "ticky tacky" is now included in the Oxford English Dictionary, and credited to Malvina Reynolds

[mspye]

I love this song and this version. I think it's cool that they decided to have different artists record it for Season 2 and 3 but no one will ever touch that voice and her timing. And I hope no one ever sees me do the little dance that this theme inspires! Love the show as well, by the way.

[soflyyyyXD]

LOVE this song.

and the show :D :D :D

[caldon44]

definitely do not like this song

[ptcooney]

I agree

[WeMustBeStopped]

White Suburbia is my reluctant home, and it somehow makes me feel ashamed.

[tcmsruler]

its "move-in" here at my campus, the day reminds me of this song

[VeryHungryZombie]

HOPE YOU ARE LEARNING AT DEVRI

LOL

[tcmsruler]

it's "DEVRY", maybe you should check in, i'm sure they have a spelling course.

[wavenstein]

I always swore to myself that I'd never find myself singing this song under my breath. But the song is just so damn catchy I just cant help it.

[ann998]

This song is awesome.

[CamFlame18]

I adore this show.

[uncompahgrecamper]

Pete Seeger is an icon

[smallvillefanatic92]

Its so true, i live in a suburb, and it is so so so true.

[lazyburger]

this song is so wierd but i like it lol

[catarina81595]

i love this song... it sings a stereotype about what suburb life is

[maroon5zealot]

very nice.

[HMmovies]

my friend likes this show. he says its good but by the song it sounds retarded. but like he said its supposed to be really good.

[CamFlame18]

Well this comment made you sound really retarded.. But you're probably a really cool person.. You just sound retarded.

[AntiBushist]

this song is actually good. its a catchy tune. its from back in the sixty, and basically its picking on the american civilization when it first got going. what happened is all these house were built and they all looked the same and everyone did pretty much the same thing. thats a little something I picked up in history class.

[PANDAWILLPWN]

i still think rise against did the best version of this song.

[sophiejo]

I actually prefer the original-this one.

[kandibearx3]

.......

i shouldn't have listened to the regina one first. cause this one is no good in comparison.

[aeagle1113]

what is ticky tacky

[schnabelking]

Nothing, i think its a symbol of the conservative American Smaltown Kind =)

OMG i dont speek veri good english xD

[oOvinceOo]

'Ticky tacky' means 'shoddy' goods.

[tomorale]

i love this song and the epizodes

[ashotinthedark10]

and there's doctors, and there's lawyers, and there's bussiness exXECUteeeeeves. :D

[theFullMetalJackass]

personally, I think this version isn't that great. never could see why people like it better than the Pete Seeger version

[HampeMCquack]

The one by Chester Bennington is better :D

[Tubyubber]

meatspin

[MattJones1418]

the fuck it is... dis da shit right here

[TheVeganHere]

I love many of the versions but I agree with Matt, "dis da shit right here"!!!

[shadowenglish]

cool song. What's the title?

[oOvinceOo]

"Little Boxes" performed by Malvina Reynolds.

[shadowenglish]

Thanks.

[rckrchck]

I grew up with the Pete Seeger version. Great song, even more so now.

[surfunbird]

I love this song, but it's so depressing when you realize how true the lyrics are.

[schnabelking]

hihi

[excesodeluz]

love ittt so much !!

[planewaxer]

this is not the weeds theme song mary jane is

[futuremillionaire725]

filmed in calabasas california. the most identical place ever

[buze]

Little boxes on the hillside

Little boxes made of ticky tacky

Little boxes on the hillside

Little boxes all the same

There's a green one and a pink one

And a blue one and a yellow one

And they're all made out of ticky tacky

And they all look just the same!

[Quejarse]

good job?

[buze]

I was bored :(

[ammie18061992]

WTF dude =]

[dannydarbouze]

I heard that Celia and Conrad would be back, but they will only guest start on certain episodes. They wont be in everyone like before.

[xSeNedra]

I read about possible spin off with them on buddy tv. Cool :D

[CTDash]

Masterpiece show. Correction for those who stated below. "Weeds" comes back on the 16th of June. Since Conrad Shepard and Heylia Jones won't be making a return, I fear the fourth season won't be as cool because those two were my favorite characters of the show.

[stonedandconed]

aint it the truth

[kety1992]

i love this song

[starswitch]

i remember seeing this reality when i was in the states

[canesfan471]

hahaa

where are you from?

[Hunter1203792]

Excellent ;-)))))))

[Skates2much]

This is the best version of this song.

[spingk]

Have you heard Jumbo Lump and the Voodoo Santas' cover? I personally like it more than this version.

[mattkt100j]

[dahaaka]

[mokus85]

[morenakidah]

I LOVE this song xD it's so funny... and it's true, "they all look just the same"... =)

[deletedboi1985]

this song is addictive, and good, people who complain are retarted, its a song, if u like it, u like it, if u dont, oh well, get over urself :O) ITS A SONG

[kensei1972]

Well aware of Malvina, and sanctimoniousness is what drew the comment. What I can't stand is the acrimonious condescension, as if these terrible elements of the human condition were somehow confined to the idiots that don't get their perverse economic theory. It was a common characteristic, and fortunately , contributed to the world view that is pretty well understood- the communists were evil( however you'd like to define the term) , and the Western "fellow travelers" were useful idiots .

[poikilotherm1]

shut the fuck up

no one understands u

u just sound like a poesbek naai

[kensei1972]

Oh, the irony.

Was that English you were jibbering?

[kytem2]

It's a great song, perhaps even great art, but you don't have to agree with the politics of the singer or artist to enjoy it.

PS, google Malvina and sanctimony.

[kensei1972]

I like how the communist sympathizer that wrote it (Ooh!Look! Stalin starving the Ukranians! A triumph of the proletariat!) degrades those know-nothing regular people as being all made of ticky-tacky, and they all look the same . Of course, we all know the socialists are somehow totally unique, and those critiques don't apply. Oh, the joys of baseless condescension...

[KenCat]

There may have been evil communists, though that does not prove communism to be evil.

[tatorr30]

this song sucks my asss

[Madhadderall]

A Special Effects Flaw happens @ 00:34

when the lead runner disappears

[giumri]

NICE CATCH1

[Farva2484]

this is not a new song this lady has been around for a long time!!!!!!lololol peace and POT

[mizinsane]

and the ppl in the houses all went to the university ladadada ladadada :D i love it love it

[beefcakethemighty507]

excuse my ignorance but what is the ticky tacky, does she mean weed?

p.s. i love this show

[sstratiev]

tic tac ???

[adambr222]

LOL...calm down, people. I'm sure the song is just brilliant and a masterpiece of art. I don't need to step outside the box and contemplate something that doesn't really matter. I'll save that for things that actually matter. This is just a song. I don't need to think that it's wonderful, regardless of how much you or I want to read into the words.

Settle down, folks. Save that angry energy for things that are realistically going to affect your life. This isn't.

[OddOunce]

This song is genuis, and powerful. Who ever said it wasn't is fucking dumb and literal.

[LarkinsandMedley]

If you think the song is "stupid" you don't understand it. It's brilliant. Wake up! Pay attention. Ask yourself what the writer is telling you. Stop assuming that because she's not a great singer and the production is simple that it's "stupid". Look deeper. Step outside of the "little box" that you're in.

[IraqCTR]

I soooooo hate that stupid song

[robonichronic]

well you dont get it then cuz you're a box dumbass!

[lofatash]

yeah, well thats probably because its an opinion, and not really a fact.

[adambr222]

No, it can't be proven as fact, but most reasonable people with a decent sense of hearing can hear the absurdity of the song.

[morpheus0055]

so i guess bob dylan was just a giant dumbass who made horrible, awful songs too?

[almanacofsleep]

Um this isn't ubserd, mabey if you listen to the whole song you will find that it is a critic of conformity of small town america, go listen to the Fray or whatever shitness you listen to.

[GarretMorgan]

"go listen to the Fray or whatever shitness you listen to" - Nice going. You a real crusader for nonconformity.

[almanacofsleep]

thanks.

[GarretMorgan]

I was being sacastic. You cant dismiss a person outright for having different veiws than you do. Thats called conformism through nonconformaty. The whole point of nonconformity is to accept differences in opinion even the conformist ones.

[almanacofsleep]

Great.

[ekspesOne]

TOOL

[adambr222]

I'm surprised that no one has pointed out that this song is quite possibly the most horrible, awful song you'll ever hear in your life. Oh well.

[evfich]

why?

[stopid]

Is this the actual theme song of Weeds? There are so many versions that it's so confusing!

[chrisjohnson1100]

Yes, this is the original version by Malvina Reynolds. All the other versions are just different singers/artists doing their own version of the song
