Elbow - Grounds For Divorce Video + Lyrics

[Osmanreich]

thats chilling

[TheMrLevan]

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooooooo

[m1sterh0tsauc3]

suck

[FoolFosten]

It's: there's a whore in my neighbourhood

and not: There's a hole in my neighbourhood

[cuband8]

@FoolFosten you're wrong. it's hole. why else would he talk about falling afterwards?

also if you listen closely he DOES say hole

[UncleTip]

oh my goodness, the guitar guy looks a lot like the original louis concept in the old pre-release version of left 4 dead 1.

[Roflcop013]

Nice song I like it :D i first heard it when i was watching the left 4 dead tv spot 5/5

( thats one strong mug xD )

[StrawberriiBlond]

Heard it on Burn After Reading trailer :L So glad I looked up the whole song! (:

[xDaZJMx]

[zippythechippy]

[DaftPunkSalomea]

[Freddirector]

So what is the song about?

[treksez]

divorce??

[MrDave475]

love this song it kicks so much ass

[yeahthisismyusername]

@MrDave475 a silly amount of ass is being kicked here.

[bobbyhayes111]

These guys supported U2. It should be the other way round

[liamchilton]

This song probably has the greatest guitar riffs ever. This song is the greatest elbow song, maybe not as good as one day like this. Its a tough call!

[kevintheshedend1976]

I know it's been out for what. . .a year?. . but the line. . . ''there's a chinese cigarette caes, and the rest you can keep...'' had me hooked all week.

I've just watched the vid and now I fuckin LOVE this choon.

It's freaky too. The girl sitting on that blokes knee and gets up and starts dancing on 50 seconds is the absolute dead spit of my ex.

I'd swear it was her, only she can't dance to save her life

[hellenchamberlain]

divorce appliied for yesterday !

[TheOriginalChubbs]

what the hell why is it for such dramatic tv shows?

i think its a fun song that is nice to listen to.

[llamasausage]

hows it fun

its about being an alcoholic who never gets to see his kid and thinks the kid will end up the same way

its a great song but id hardly say fun

[TheOriginalChubbs]

oh i still think its a fun song you freaking mood ruiner go be depressing somewhere else

[jordanco18llins]

your such a stupid prick. he just told you what is about you miserable wanker. not evryone is as thoughtless, ignorant and 'happy' as you because theres not always a reason to be. i fucking hate people like you. you have spectrum of emotions and thoughts, so use em or fuck off and listen to dance music mister one dimension

[zEuSsMiNiOn4493]

No idea who you were talking to, but that was freaking brilliant! hahaha rock on. I love this song, band, man, singer, yeah. Adoration. ITs fun to dance to, but its not really a happy song... Idk, I love it either way! just enjoy it an listen to it for fookssake

[TheOriginalChubbs]

oh your a mood ruiner 2 you go fuck yourself you depressing son of a bitch and anyone else who thinks im a "miserable wanker" can go fuck themselves. theres no need to be such a cry baby all the time is what im saying no one likes whiners except depressing people like you and llamasausage licker or what ever. so you go fuck yourself and cry to your mom and be a bitch.

[delamrio]

"llamasausage licker"? That's the best insult ever.

[BettyBettyBetty123]

he was referring to the guy whos youtube account is 'llamasausage'. if you read above. you cummy bumhole; now that's a good insult

[TheOriginalChubbs]

dude you realy dont know me im actually into making movies ive always wanted to and i got some pretty break through shit goin on in my head

and plus what the fuck is ingrat?

this isnt the fucking dark ages

fucking dumb ass.

and plus why would you not think of anything but beer and pussy its what controls the world.

[DinokillerSithlord]

idk but it fits with left 4 dead because coop gameplay I guess

[parrothead9876]

This is a great song...heard it on the house preview <3

I am now hooked!!

they have such a different sound that you can't help but love

[xLilPceOfHeavenx]

totally agree ! (: and that's where i heard the song, too!

[Xfo999999X]

@parrothead9876 i found it in a house preview too :D

[pure0awesome]

yep,

[myrandapanda48]

It was on the left 4 dead commercial and NCIS and CSI commercial.

[bobcat1939]

and house :D

[doggzma]

This is so evocative yet enigmatic at the same time. I am totally hooked.

[hubris35]

It's just a great story (which is what a song should be) music, words and visual footage keep you wanting to find out what it's about...

[ezzyezz123456]

this song im the shit it's rediculis how awsome it is!!!

[Huskyresqr]

Used in the closing scene from episode 21 of Rescue Me (last episode before season finale..and in the house coming attractions clip. I expect to hear it on CSI Miami, L & O SVU...very powerful sound...

[ruthven78]

absolutely love the bass on this song, heard it during the House MD season promo ad and had to track this song down

[dyingfly]

I love this song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Lpthirteen]

might be the tuning is different - not the standart ... after all hes using slide too

[arabianscotsman1983]

streyastrider, that would be an effects pedal, a lot of guitarists use one to alter the sounds of their guitars hope that helps

[Madatter4]

This is seldom seen kid. wierd how they name it random things innit

[jordanco18llins]

i thought thats what it was called to....

[lindsayluvsyou]

is this the seldom seen kid?

i cant find it anywhere if it isent...

[ThatDorkFromArtClass]

Anyone know any other songs with this fantastic bluesy feel? Does Elbow have any other blues songs?

[manlyman300]

and this is a good use on left 4 dead videos

[manlyman300]

sorry 4 being mean but the black guy looks like hes on drugs(crackhead)

[paulintheglasshouse]

youve never done drugs have you ? im presuming that because if youd done what you implyed hed done youd know that he wouldnt be standing up playing the way he is... so manlyman be a man ;-)

[SonnoMaku]

this is my Left 4 Dead menu music :D

[streyastrider]

1:19 - 1: 38 the step on the...whatever that is. It sounds awesome. What is it anyway?

[CutieMissJoker]

I absolutley love this song!! Brill!!

[admiralwolverine96]

[padraig3684]

[AtomAntTC]

Very like Moby - Natural blues at the beginning.

[Mooizx]

omg i love this song, at partys everytime it comes on everyone just gets up & starts dancing & it's really cool ;) x

[Pattydarocker077]

CLASS SONG WOOOOOOOO

[darrenforster99]

I first heard this song off the Burn After Reading trailer. It's a really top song and it has really encouraged me to go and watch Burn After Reading when it comes out on DVD (I missed it in the cinema!)

[kcarlhand]

dear darren burn after reading is fucking awful do yourself a favour and dont watch it, that way you dont waste 2 hours of your life. this song and george clooney smashing a dildo chair are about the only good things in the film

[LaraM94]

burn after reading confused me abit da ending wos crap n brad pitt wos killed. da only gd thing wos da dildo chair n dis song lol

[troyster2811]

ending was hilarious as it showed lack of knowledge in cia! was a good film you fool :p

[mynameisnyhm]

Burn After reading is a good film, but it did have a confusing plot, and it was more intelligent/political humor rather than a farce, which is a turn off for a lot of people. Though the didlo chair was amazingly hillarious,

[pownage25]

Left 4 Dead anyone?

[SushiX0]

L4D and this song ftw

[iseedeadpeepole]

All bow to Left 4 Dead, the best survival horror game ever created.

[wvkraken]

oh, yeah!!! Left 4 Dead is the best zombie game ever created!!!!

[nicevidloo]

yh best song ever yh mon

[spartan4369]

i learned about this song from the Left 4 dead commercial!!! great game btw!!!

[pivotyboy]

how the heak dose he make the acustic sound like it dose in the choruses

[a4punchpocket]

thas what i wanna know...no acoustic could make tht noise with out bein passed through a few FX pedals

[IntegrityRules]

It's run through a Mesa/Boogie Amplifier by the looks of the footswitch he hits. So he's just switching it from a phased clean to a nasty distortion. But this isn't accurate, look at live versions or transcribe it and he plays the chorus part lower on the neck, in the 3rd position... In the video it's an octave or two higher.

[chrisfrith213]

Such a qood sonq.

best of the album by far !

[wilksa007]

The lyrics are in the "more info" box, although the first verse is wrong. The correct lyrics are: Mondays is for drinking to the seldom seen kid... I've been working on a cocktail called Grounds for Divorce Whoah Polishing a compass that I hold in my sleep Whoah Dan comes in on sticks but then he kicks like a horse Whoah There's a Chinese cigarette case And the rest you can keep And the rest you can keep And the rest you can keep

[thestickwoman]

So where are the lyrics?

[troyster2811]

burn after reading

[benodge08]

2008 views cool.

[NorwoodFilms]

for a weid but cool tribute to elbow type in the double cocktail

[kinglee72]

i just came across Elbow while listening to the radio at 6 thay play the UK in the OK, and i heard them play "bones of you" and i was hook'd

[xXSkrillexXx]

Yah i got totally hooked after i heard bones of you 2 :D:D:D they're sooooo clazz!!! x

[richardhill12]

The best band in the UK at the moment... All their albums are the dogs, with 'cast of thousands' the best of all.

[RichySKing]

Very surprised that only 1,565 people have watched this video! Amazing song.
