  • How dare this video not have more views!

  • Love that bass tone

  • I get this instrumental feeling when i listen to this.

    Very VERY beautiful song, creds to this wonderful band!

  • This song is beautiful, the music,the diction, all there songs amaze me and the band themselves...Mew is the most relaxing and calming band ive ever heard...its just amazing ♥ 

  • Mew is one of the bands that make me be in love for no reason at all

  • so fucking amazin i ll cry

  • goosebumps. Every time.

  • are you my lady are you my lady aare you? .. yes! I'm your lady yes please just stop!

  • I get chills every time I hear this song! I saw these guys in San Francisco and they have an amazing presence! Jonas has a great voice, and he's super adorable! I hope I'll get the chance to see Mew again. Any plans to come back to the states?

  • Sometimes I forget Mew is a band. These guys are too awesome to be human, it's like their not real.

  • @USFISTER kurt cobain sux at guitar he sux at singing yet nirvanas songs sound awesome. u just dont like mews style. and young the giants singer sounds like kings of leon

  • @CountRobVonRolf Chris Cornell is a good singer. The dude in Mew has a very boring, very monotone voice as well. And one more thing: you confuse voice with singing ability. Having a good voice doesn't make you a good singer or vice versa. I never said this dude doesn't have a good voice (although it's pretty boring, IMO); I said that he doesn't sing well. There's a difference. Now go listen to music that is actually good for a change, like My Girls from Animal Collective.

  • @USFISTER dude if you dont like the music, STOP FUCKING TROLLING HERE OKAY?!

  • @EeroVT hes not trollling :P, The guy has a amazing voice but i don't think he has that much skill with singing :P, tho I love the song so don't caps lock me :P

  • @sorarorasora well in Youtube trolls are those people who watch videos they don't like and then comment. And Jonas has vvvvery much skill with singing :) You can hear it all the time. He sings perfectly.

  • @EeroVT I know what trolling is :P and hes not really trolling comments are there to voice what you think of it and he said he does not like this song and why he don't. and i think he don't have that much skilll but then again am shit singer but w/e :P

    his voice is amazing tho :P (Sorry about late reply as rushed in hospital >_>)

  • @sorarorasora but the mystery is that why is he watching this and commentin' it. Mostly I only comment to covers who are badly wrong. That chap just doesn't get that listening this music more and more makes you like it. That happened with me. I was "whattefuuuck this is focking micky mouse".---(one hour later)---> "yee I just downloaded their all music and posted a blogpost about that band... " I hate people who are stuck in their same focking genre like metalguys.

  • @EeroVT your right and wrong, There will be some bands even if you listen to 10000 times you won't like but yeah people who do stay at 1 genre are stupid :P

  • @sorarorasora well said.

  • @USFISTER Haha Animal Collective. isdisguyjoking

  • @USFISTER You should put "I think" in front of your sentences. Otherwise you're putting yourself into the perspective of universe as if you're speaking for everyone, which you're definitely not.

  • this is the best Vevo video I'vee seen so far, and it has the fewest views of any Vevo video I've seen, stupid

  • @CountRobVonRolf hahahahahahahahahahahha kid thinks its one's vocal range that makes a good singer... that's good! I'm laughing my ass off right now!!! While it's always good to have a wide range spanning more octaves, being a baritone, bass, or tenor doesn't make anyone better or worse at singing. You, kid, are a troll. You have terrible taste in music and lack any ability to objectively criticize it, whatsoever.

    ZOMG BARITONE SUX BRAH!!!?11!! I LYKE 12 YR OLD GURLZ SINGING!

  • Look, if you like the song, listen and enjoy it. If you don't, then don't listen. Simple as that. I don't care what your musical preference is.

  • Some people nowadays think all bands are formed by auditions in shows such as idol, and therefore they expect all performers to be perfect at their "jobs"- perfect singers, drummers etc. Well, some bands are formed by people who like music, who have something to say, and a way of saying it that make others relate. That is enough. Mew is such a band, and Jonas is a singer/songwriter and it doesn't matter if he sings perfect. No one else would/could do what he does, it's not his job, it's his art.

  • @USFISTER ur really just judging the band by its playing and vocal skills (which is silly), which are just as good as any band. ur really just not listening to the song itself, which u probably dont like, which is okay. ....but mews the best in my opinion.....

  • @USFISTER .... r mistaken. plus u dont have to be the best guitarist to have the best band cuz neither young the giant or mew have that. its were it all comes together if ya know wat i mean ;) plus u say kid and LOL a lot.

  • @USFISTER ummm well this singer could probably do what the young the giant guy does in apartment. i mean sure its a good song but its not really the most amazing vocals really but its just the song itself and its the same thing with the zookeepers boy. its really down to ur taste in music, so its probably this particular song by mew or this kind of indie (mew is the most original band ive heard) u dont like. and if u think that being a good band is about views on utube, then i respectfully say u

  • @CountRobVonRolf Oh yeah and one more thing, if you actually learn what vocal techniques are being used, such as the extensive use of vibrato from the singer I mentioned, you might be a better critic. But you don't understand, obviously, because all this guy is doing is droning a monotonous falsetto in the same octave OVER AND OVER. It's absolutely terrible. What Young the Giant does is FAR more technically difficult.

  • @CountRobVonRolf LOL HAHAHAHAHAHA WOW! You should get your ears checked, kid. He sounds nothing like the singer from that terrible band. And Young the Giant has 2.5 million views on their first single. How many does Mew have? You make me laugh, kid. Learn what real music is. The singer of this band ISN'T EVEN SINGING, HE'S JUST TALKING IN A REALLY HIGH PITCHED VOICE. Learn an instrument and some music theory and maybe you'll start to understand how to objectively analyze music.

  • my favorite song of Mew apart from special. his voice is so calming

  • Listen this song in my iphone for almost 1 complet year¡¡¡¡ a master pice

  • their best song imo!

  • so many great melodies in this song

  • It sounds different than the song on the album. :/

  • @Krugezoid

    I think they cut off most of the intro.

  • This song melts my heart, I don't know why I haven't listened to it for ages!!!

  • wheres the intro riff

  • Can anyone tell me what exactly the girl on the album art of Frengers is? What is that uniform for, specifically?

  • @CitizenOccidens Well the uniform is used for "rodeos" or something like that, when someone is trying to reach a bull.. also if you check the other pics have like the same meaning... but its moreo common to see boys with that uniform... Its called TORERO :D

  • bvena SOng... xvere =)

  • this is one of my favorite songs i didn't like it at first but i grew to love it somehow

  • @TheProductofsociety same here actually, at first i didn't really know what to think of it, but soon enough i grew to love it as well :)

  • Are you my lady? Are you my lady? Are you my lady? Are you my lady?

  • Amen...and it just keeps getting better every time ;)

  • Vianney are yo, my lady are you , my lady are you ... <3

  • so they finally managed to move that truck from the docks at vermilion city

  • This song is the definition of epic. Even the video manages to tap into this magical kind of understated grandeur. Amazing effort.

  • @scottmichaeloneil

    "I love it when reviewers and critics call

    a new record an "effort".

    some effort, it's more like giving birth to 12 children."

    -Adrian Belew

  • I wish mew would come to the USA. :(

    They're amazing!

  • Kinda reminds me of Radiohead

  • 这张专辑所有歌都喜欢到不行!

  • This song is so beautiful makes me want to cry. I'm just staring in awe at this video. Why can't we have music like this in the U.S.

  • @killingthemarsians We do. Just gotta listen to the good bands! :)

  • dirtier than a

  • Thank you polish radio station Eska Rock for playing this song and discover it for me. Now my life is a little bit more beautiful :-)

  • to understant this music and the song..you need to listen ...AND THE GLASS...(their album) is a complet song that complete your day =)

  • look up "while the city sleeps - back when we knew", similar colourful soundscapes and grand crescendos.

  • I fckin love this song and i cant stop listening to it dammit !! LOL

  • This song cures my depression.

  • My lady are you, my lady are you ahaha

  • I for one.. love his unique vocals.

  • @MrLukec16 HEY! I'm glad you understand what I'm saying now! Although half of the girls in 8th grade DO claim to play guitar, 100% can definitely sing like this guy! Now you realize how talentless he is. Thanks for proving my point biatch.

  • @USFISTER First of all, I would say that about 97% of people can not sing like this man. Second, my previous rebuttal in no way affirmed yours. He is not talentless. If he was, he would not have a record deal. And lastly, if you are going to attempt to insult me in such a lackadaisical way, please try something more colorful.

  • @MrLukec16 Logic is not your strong point, is it? 97% of people also can't play guitar like me. Does that make me special? No. 99% of every schoolgirl can sing like this schmuck. What does that say about him? You think it takes TALENT to get a record deal? LOL wake up to reality, kid. The world is money. Talentless buffoons get record deals every day. J.Lo, anyone? Please. This guy is annoying and terrible. Having a record deal says nothing about your talents.

  • @USFISTER they have played for ther royal!.. they are well-received by professional music Specialist critcal music reception The A.V. Club gave it an A (the highest note), praising that "Mew really does inhabit a place where few contemporaries can be found BBC (9/10) link Drowned in Sound (9/10) link  Gaffa 6/6 stars link PopMatters (Favorable) link Sputnikmusic 5/5 stars link Stylus (A+) link Uncut 4/5 stars
  • @USFISTER The independent review site Pitchfork Media gave the album an 8.1/10, citing that "Mew has succeeded in developing a good sound from some of the least hip ingredients imaginable"

    Mew is not as thoughtful or smart as they think they are, but the force of their conviction is inspiring.

    Ok and that's it..enjoy your music and let us enjoy our music.. PEACE & LOVE ----NOT THE WAR..

    PD: they (mew ) know about plans that amybe you know they can sing backwards and in japanese too

  • @luisale130 Pitchfork is awful at reviewing music. But I don't care about that anyway. You realize the people that write reviews are educated in journalism, right (if at all)? A journalist does not a music critic make.

  • @USFISTER you're a dull fucking moron. why do you give a shit and why are you arguing? go tell someone who cares. let us like mew.

  • @MrLukec16 Hey man I feel bad for making fun of you for listening to bad music. But don't worry! There's still hope. Listen to what a real vocalist sounds like buddy and watch Young the Giant's song Apartment.

  • WAHT? LADY SHIT AND mew?? = VEVO FUCKING FAIL..

    SONY KILLS CREATIVITY

  • oh my god this song holds so many memories for me :") and its only been half a year i havent listened to it

  • This band reminds me of silversun pickups + MGMT.. BUT BETTER!!

  • Best Band Ever. Mew Rocks!

  • look up "while the city sleeps - back when we knew", very similar big and colourful soundscapes!

  • @KoiChannel

    wow thank you for the recomendation!

    Love their sound!

  • i'd love to someone singing to me 'are yoy my lady are you? to me.. likke that

  • this song will be play on my way to heaven!

  • i luv this song mew is amazing. this song wants me want to sleep though. but still awsome

  • Wow. They're like angels.

  • this beautiful song reminds me of the worst moments of my life...

  • Their music is good; the singer is terribly annoying. I've heard a thousand too many bad emo bands constantly singing at the top of their whiny vocal range, I can't stand it anymore. Not that this band is emo, but it still makes me cringe.

  • @USFISTER Whiny vocal range? That is not whiny at all, ok? Shut up and appreciate someone and their talent. Just because you can't do it doesn't mean you have to try and tear down a band to your 4th grade level of thought.

  • @MrLukec16 vey good shut the mouth of that motherfucker

  • @MrLukec16 No, it is whiny.  Listen to a real man sing, and you'll hear the difference.

  • @USFISTER What is your definition of a real man? I am guessing not yourself. Therefore, please stop arguing. You have absolutely no idea what it takes to accomplish what he did. The range, notes, head voice; all talents that take a long time to perfect, and this man has done it. Appreciate it.

  • @MrLukec16 Definition: someone who isn't a eunuch. This guy clearly is. He doesn't even SING WELL!!! That's the sad part of you defending him. Bring him down a couple octaves and he would sound like any other old Joe you can pick up off the street. Sorry, kid, but reaching high notes doesn't make someone a good singer, it just means they were born with a higher pitched voice.

  • @USFISTER Do you account for anything besides the fact that he can sing at a higher range? Listen to the song please, and their other songs. There is so much more there. If you actually knew music you would appreciate it, much less be able to make sense.

  • @MrLukec16 I do know music, thanks. I am a guitarist myself, and I didn't say their music was bad... just the singer.

  • @USFISTER Half of the girls in the 8th grade claim to be guitarists as well. That means nothing.

  • @USFISTER ..WTF SHUT your MOUTH IF YOU DON'T KNOW..AND YOU'VE NEVER FOLLOW THEM FROM THE BEGGINING...THEY ARE NOT "EMO" THEY ARE (ALTERNATIVE -SOFT ROCK BAND)....LOOK FOR THEIR SONGS COMFORTING SOUNDS,156,,other that are not here in vevo and actually you'll find tha they have more than 60 songs..and you could apreciate them...so long and listen LADYSHIT...or other Pop media music...I gues you can reach the vocal key...and I know you don't know what a VOCAL KEY is.?

  • @luisale130 Wow, kid, you sound angry. None of that changes how terrible this band, and especially their singer, sound.

  • @USFISTER so if you thin they are TERRBILE why do you listen them? go nd listen your MEDIA AMERRICANNN..CRAP.. I'm not gonna write theri name but you know...all the BILLIONS OF VIEWS CRAP

  • @luisale130 LOL I listen to a lot of music. Country, indie, hip hop, dance, alternative... I listen to the best music in every genre... I just don't listen to shit. That includes this band.

  • Why is Vevo running non stop Bachmann ads? Love this song, so whatevs

  • what is the painting?

  • 0:24 when he starts to sing, it's so cute

  • 0:55 BASSIN HARD

  • The background looks like Coldplays Viva La Vida cd cover! Awesome song btw

  • @Lindkvist1515 It can..HANDLED KITIES ALBUM IS older and Better than VIVA LA VIDA..you Must listen HANDED KITIES AND YOU'll know is a non -stop or continuos song (BIG SONG ) and ablum...you need to listen SPECIAL before this and A DARK DESIGN after this to understand the song.

  • @luisale130 what is your point?

  • i diggs. 

  • great song....simply love it...love MEW

  • JESUS CHRIST has all the authority in heaven and on earth. Seek Jesus Christ, seek salvation ! JESUS SAVES

  • @YTmes I FOUND JESUS!!!!!

    (dead in the basement of a church)

  • @YTmes go away biblia adicted and attentionseeker

  • his voice is angelic!

  • @CDD1992A What kind of music you appreciate? Songs that talk shit throughout the whole 4mins of the song. lame

  • I'm not gay, but jonas is beautiful ♥

  • This is amazest song that i've ever heard

  • @EvilViolator124 no need to dis butt monkey

  • HE IS SO FUCKING CUTE

  • This song is like a beautiful dream.....

  • @Rokira well stated.

  • EPIC

  • I cannot stop listening to this... makes me think of a british boy in 19th century india, looking at the wildlife...oh Mew, its amazing how you can just take a person to another world :D

  • OMFG....SHUT UP WILLOW SMITH!

  • This song has been having sex with my ears for the past three days ... and counting. :}

  • wtf i fucking hate vevo and the effing ads. let me watch the video damnit!!

  • you gotta love those beams of white light :O

  • es esta grand band

  • One of the Greatest Albums EVER.

  • For those who are curious, the painting in the background is "The Death of Major Peirson" by John Singleton Copley. It depicts the Battle of Jersey (the European island, not the American state) during the American War of Independence. Odd choice for this song, yet still a beautiful work of art.

  • @yayserotonin: Really? I thought that was a Delecroix. There goes my argument that Coldplay stole everything from Mew in order to make Viva La Vida.

  • @FriedGold8942 I stand by for that!!!!

  • @FriedGold8942 of course and U2 too..just check...both band siad they admire to mew and they are so glad that nobody know who mew was.

  • No 1,000,000 views?!

  • Why does it have a picture of a British army in the back? :0

  • bare digger MEW<33 FROM NORWAY

  • mew must be the best band in the world. fuck justin bieber and mainstream shit. this is art! check out opeth as well, a swedish progband

  • @JokerHimself OF curse they are..but Like someone told me if you wanna good music you need to Search for it. and when you find it you'll apreciate what music is...

    ACTUALLY MEDIA (TV,RADIO,VEVO) won't give you good music all that they wanna is sell music like whores..

    Imagine a retarded teen maybe he or she doesn't know what music is..or maybe yes but all that mainstream give them is A JOKE because that (DISNEY SHIT) can't be named Music....Lucky you you've found MEW =)

  • I'm too deeply in love with Jonas Bjerre's band, vocals, brilliancy and lips >.<

  • Great great band.

  • I love Mew so much, they need to be publicised more!

  • i was so high and riding inmy friends car and he had this awesome system. when this song came on i swear i felt like i was at the peak of a mountain looking down as the sunsets and the clouds below me. it was fucking epic.

  • This is complicated, but here's how I found this song: I was watching tokyo mew mew, and I was searching mew zakuro but I accidentally hit search before I wrote zakuro. It had speial, and then the related video was this. Weird, ehh?

  • @dfuieyudyfch yeah mee too I was looking for something and found MEW..I hope you stay here and join us and you could be a FREENGER a mew fan actually they are MUSICIANS,,,and they apreciate and make MUSIC and ART..
