Monsters of Folk - Map Of The World

A dislike button shouldn't even exist for this song.

[mafuller64]

@MentalExtirpation Commander Venus, but Conor was like 13, and it sort of sounds like he was 13.

[MentalExtirpation]

@mafuller64 Haha, sounds interesting. I'll check it out.

Thanks!

[MentalExtirpation]

Well, I've stumbled over another band in which Conor Oberst plays a part. Other than Monsters of Folk, Bright Eyes, Desaperecidos, and the Mystic Valley Band, are there any others? haha

[LoriTaylorx3]

@MentalExtirpation Park Ave. :)

[punknirvana182]

@MentalExtirpation theres a couple more, norman bailer, commander venus, his little solo thing, the magnetas, and park ave. :)

[spaarks84]

@MentalExtirpation He drummed in Park Ave.

[rockshya23]

lol

[SailorStar84]

Anyone notice the resemblance between one of the members and the guy that plays Chuck?

[KamaPaints]

@SailorStar84 no... which member do you mean?

[LoveAndPeaceMaker]

I was thinking to myself when I first heard this song "wow, the singer sounds exactly like Conor Oberst!" and then I searched for the band and it's really him!

[Chane6]

Three people with who have horrible taste in music

[iSmkoeBluntsToMyFace]

@xCarolineification Damn, i just saw them play and they an amazing setlist, but they didn't play any MVB or MOF. They did, however, play a lot of old tunes, and laid off the crowd pleasers. don't get me wrong, i'll never get tired of hearing 'the calendar hung itself' live, but i'd rather hear a more obscure/better song than 'lover I don't have to love' (blasphemy, i know) or first day of my life. i wish they had played some monsters of folk at my show.

[xCarolineification]

"This next is kind of a cover song, sort of. It’s by one of my favorite bands called Monsters of Folk— I know you guys have heard of them. Greatest band ever formed" -Conor playing this song with Bright Eyes

[foonr]

well i didn't come here because of gossip girl or whatever other show it was supposed on. i came here because it's a fucking awesome record

[davidgarrison]

a little elliott smith feel here

[ratm3413]

fuck the new world order

[dexter81195]

3 people lost their map of the world...

[sethkry1]

may i suggest "get gone," by ryan karey? a similar vibe.......

[calliopicane]

ahh i love this song. so fucking good. my favorite MOF song.

[commanderurine]

"Like the thing, that you tried, that you thought that you like for a minute then it all felt wrong." this killed me.

[Starpass]

lots of good vibes..thank you.

[grumpybritishguy]

this song is on gossip girl.....? please deny this claim someone.

[grumpybritishguy]

who the hell thumbs down these guys? insanity!

[JacobGrimmFollower]

Shitty shows and movies take good music to hide their shitiness

[kingofstuff87]

Oh look... Two people must have been smoking crack or something and gave this song a thumbs down!

[socksandlawnmowers]

for sure. a great band. this is real music.

[Starpass]

@socksandlawnmowers super folk music; a bit like Simon and Garfunkel.

These guys have heart.

[philipsmog]

I'm guessing Conor wrote most of this one? Really good. He can really churn out good quality songs at a fast clip, they're not hits but cumulatively they are, I mean, his career is a hit.

[masteruber12]

yeah, fleet foxes is amazing

[Surviving55]

what one person is that dumb to dislike ?

[charliemurphyslaw]

@Surviving55 Barrack Obama.

[alavro15]

@charliemurphyslaw When you have a bi partisan government and one side is full middle aged white men who are afraid of change, then its hard to bring about the change that most conscious minded people want. So fuck you and your lame little comment. Peace to Barack Obama!

[evansmithskates]

@alavro15 But it was not these white men that spent all of our money and put the U.S. in even worse debt. And don't blame it on Bush, Obama spent 3 times as much money in 1 term than bush did in all 2.

[badandyomac]

@evansmithskates You really need to check your facts bro, cause you need to count the money that bush spent on the wars every month. 10 billion a month for each war adds up. Bush started off the shitty economic situation were in, Obama has perpetuated it. They are both to blame, but it wouldn't have gotten this bad if it wasn't started by Bush.

[priest6996]

@badandyomac I agree with you to an extent. I wouldn't go as far as to say that Bush started it off, though. He just kind of pushed it over the edge....

[thtsritesun1212]

@charliemurphyslaw haha true that!

[heyjude97]

whenever i go to social studies class, i ALWAYS get this song stuck in my head. i loooove monsters of folk <3

[ubertomadachi]

I mean taking OUR good music away !!! Sorry fustration makes me forget my grammar skills!!!

[ubertomadachi]

How dare Gossip Girl touch this!!! Already by the name of the program you can tell the show is bloody undeserving!!!! Grrrrrrr!!!! Why are the gay shows/movies/etc. taking all are good music away!!!! Like for example Twilight...putting Muse to shame there....that gets me so so so so so so so worked up!!!

[tennyoAMV]

@ubertomadachi I'm still trying to figure out why it matters. :/

[ubertomadachi]

@tennyoAMV Think long and hard...

[tennyoAMV]

@ubertomadachi No I don't think I really need to, thanks. Because I can't force myself to care that shitty TV shows or movies use music I may like. Not like the song is changing. If it's shitty, like Gossip Girl or Twilight, I just simply don't watch or even pay attention, therefore my life is not affected. I just find other more meaningful ways to listen to my music.

There are more important things in life to care about.

[LivesUnderABridge]

@ubertomadachi

Twilight did not "take Muse" from you, Muse /gave them/ the rights to use their songs because they're a bunch of good-for-nothing businessmen without a shred of musical integrity between them who wouldn't want to miss a chance to appeal to the Hot Topic dwelling fan demographic that flock to see the utter horse shit that is Twilight.

Basically what I'm saying is Muse sucks.

[Gummiebal]

it was on gossip girl in season 3, episode 13: "The Hurt Locket".

so you can be 'hella pissed'

[headcadetys]

@Gummiebal You don't get it and you never will.

[beachmon08]

caught em in pomona with a friend i was blown away the music keeps morphing and will take its place in the saving truth of all of us

[beachmon08]

caught em in pomona with a friend i was blown away the music keeps morphing and will take its place in the saving truth of all of us

[LovableCannibal]

If this really was on gossip girl I'm gonna be hella pissed...

[EmmaPetersonProduct]

Isn't weird how so many crappy shows and movies always have the best music? Like Twilight! I feel like a fag having that soundtrack but it's so damn good. And what's this gossip girl shit? Oh no!

[monaxikoalani]

inteligente bands are unknown...I love you gossip girl:)

[fear1thing]

@monaxikoalani intelligent.

[xxGeTuPkIdSxx]

and you're sitting all alone with your thoughts, getting stoned, waiting for some peace to come....

[madeyemoody99]

[nilesniles]

[jewelriie]

[RedRoosterbabam]

This shit was on Gossip Girl?

[jewelriie]

[facelesscoward]

[RedRoosterbabam]

@facelesscoward that's what I said

[facelesscoward]

@RedRoosterbabam Haha, I didn't think I posted that comment. Oops.

[Sierraistheshit]

@jewelriie Grrrrrrr...

[kenrben]

@jewelriie Fuck gossip girl :)

[BrutalityMental]

@kenrben Haha. I must say though, they have a really cool playlist.

[BrutalityMental]

But personally im here to just hear this song, not discuss Gossip Girl. This song is really good. Great band too.

[milkitsch]

going to the cph concert with my father, it´s nice different generations can enjoy the same music

[caylacurbstomp]

I saw them last night. The show was unbelievable.

[jessicatae]

I was at the halloween show. They played for 2 and a half hours, then a 15 minute break, then another half hour dressed as the band KISS. FUCKING AMAZING!!!

[milkitsch]

Great song, think I´ll see them in Copenhagen in two weeks.

[oaktree110]

I saw them on Wednesday in Phoenix. Such an amazing show! One of the best I've been to!

[brighteyes29893]

This album is fantastic-this is my favorite song from it, for now :)

[dylanyoung22]

[lfceleven]

So, I can be 20 again. Not sure if I want to but it sounds good. Let me think about it.
