The Postal Service "Nothing Better"

[GodHandPresents]

The guy makes a good point, the only thing the video is lacking is better cinematography.. just sayin ;P

[archaicsmurf]

nice boobs

[ptvILY]

what the actual fuck?

[66alloftheabove]

I love how people are dissing this video. ha. you stupid bitches have nothing better to do than watch a video that "sucks so badly" well i hate to break it to you but your the one watching them. they are not watching your shit. get over yourselves.

[snower5554]

Key to making a fan-made music video: DON'T SING/LIP SYNC THE SONG UNLESS YOU'RE THE ARTIST THAT PERFORMS IT.

[cathenisugly]

PLEASE TELL ME YOU FAILED THIS PROJECT. its god awful.

[utilitiez]

WHAT THE HELL? HEY THAT FATTY NOT EVEN A SINGER!!!!

[MangoBirdiee]

How can you turn such a good song into such a horrible video?? This. Is. Awful. -_-

[pglee]

@MangoBirdiee This was shot with a Canon GL1 (first released in 2001). The quality of video this camera produces and its overall limitations greatly impacted the results. Since late 2007, high-definition video cameras have become more mainstream and it seems as though everyone's forgotten about the "olden days". Our team managed to piec together a linear story that fits the song and share it with Youtube over 5 years ago.

[davexhull]

@pglee you have taken the lyrics to liturally to make this a good video

[boringvectra]

oh I'm going to take everything said literally and turn it into a video!

THATS WHAT YOU DID

[mrsheatherbrenner]

what grade did you get on your project?

[lamejojo]

@kylinchapa I especially love that they're LABELED "Graph" and "Chart"!

[hamocamo]

I love to hate this video. Poor production. Terrible interpretation. Horrendous acting. Great song.

[krerryberry]

Wow really creative showing the metaphors exactly how they are said and not their meaning! Super childish and AWFUL. One of my favorite songs though.

[1987mattelliott]

This video is so shockingly bad... I love it!

[ViperishTiger]

456 people hate this video more than they like the song.

[suenoyl]

this video is pretty awful

[kylinchapa]

i like how they litterally showed the soccer and graph/chart reference, real classy! postal service must be stoked

[brokenglasshearts]

why do so many people make bad videos to these awesome postal service songs?

[shauno5166]

lol wtf am i watching

[RisingSunXII]

Great video. She was frightened of the cop 1:39 lol

[hauntedhouserecords]

this shit is hilarious



[Pharamualpha]

THIS VIDEO IS SO OLD!

[jamizar4ever]

Aw. This makes me sad :/

[SunnyLovetts]

SONG YAY!

VIDEO BOO!

[AnotherEarthChi]

if you like the postal service.

ANOTHER EARTH ON BANDCAMP

[AnotherEarthChi]

if you like the postal service.

[xiahkismiles]

Sadly this is mine and my ex's theme song, sadly i ruined "postal service" for him but our break up was exactly like this. it was wierd when he told me this song represented us.

[777Rowen]

@xiahkismiles How strange. 

[xiahkismiles]

Sadly this is mine and my ex's theme song, sadly i ruined "postal service" for him but our break up was exactly like this. it was wierd when he told me this song represented us.

[gu0ar0di7an]

lol i love at 1:39 there is a police car and she looks back around to she is shes going to get a ticket for talking on the phone whole driving. or was it legal in 2006???

[Spiritleaf]

@gu0ar0di7an It's not illegal in all places, however, it is bone stupid.

[SysRq6]

holy shit this video is terrible



[briangore1990]

@SysRq6 holy shit you're commenting on a video from 2006.

[briangore1990]

@SysRq6 holy shit you're commenting on a video from 2006.

[Timesocussa]

She needs a hands free kit, bitch gonna run someone over

[meco128]

i mean her ass

[meco128]

damn bitch what is that shit of chance to say good bay, she disurb my dick in your eyes

[meco128]

damn northamerican girl, shes a biiiiiiiiiiitchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhh, she is a hore. who the hell she thinks she is.

[iammarmelade]

if i was your professor, you would've failed this class miserably. i'm 17 and I did better work, both material and editing wise when i was in fourth grade.

[meco128]

@iammarmelade fuck you shetafuckoff assshole

[nickosharp]

Man, was all about this album in fall 2004, things didn't go as expected, Nostalgic as shit.

[Smallface8]

Really? this was for a college class?

Dude I could have done a better job in Middle School. Your editing skills are abysmal.

[S1W2E3D]

i think you could have been a bit more creative...but all is well i liked watching.

[josewrightmusic]

she trashed his room, and now it looks like MY room.

[Nodoubtinsane]

@josewrightmusic no

[syer5437]

when I kill myself, this video will be attached at the end of the note as further cause. I might just skip the note.

[hollisterman06]

Way to literal.... they stinkin mouthed every word too lol

[michaelstojsavljevic]

heard this from paul reagn's day in the life. (fabric skateboards rider from UK)

[DJBear]

Everytime I hear this song, I imagine a small apartment where the events in the lyrics play out like a television drama.

[christborder3]

Its realistic in that a girl like that would be breaking it off with Mr. Amish McTubbie.

[casie69]

@christborder3 :  lmaaoo

[EpicCatTime]

I was singing a "NATURAL ANTHEM" in our "BRAND NEW COLONY" while breathing "RECYCLED AIR" and thinking that "CLARK GABLE" would say "THIS PLACE IS A PRISON" when you woke up after "SLEEPING IN" and told me that "AGAINST ALL ODDS SUDDENLY EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED" and since we've got "NOTHING BETTER" to do we should view the world from "SUCH GREAT HEIGHTS" where "WE WILL BECOME SILHOUETTES" while "THE DISTRICT SLEEPS ALONE TONIGHT" and I thought "BE STILL MY HEART"

[BlakeMelophilia]

@BahHumBerg The reason I brought it up because I see tons of comments (not just on this video) comparing the two artists. And who are you to declare an artist's music as meaningless? Justin Bieber can sing about needing somebody to love despite being 17 years old and be recognized as a fantastic and true artist, but a former UPS worker who simply wanted to sing about his emotions and dreams is the one who has meaningless music? That's...just silly.

[whativedone43]

amateurish, but good. i enjoyed it.

[javier911019]

i feel in a video game

[blackmistangel2]

the cell phone thing was way overdone

[BlakeMelophilia]

Why is everybody always comparing Owl City and The Postal Service? They seriously don't sound alike. At all. Just because they're both in the electronic genre doesn't mean Owl City is copying TPS. Seriously, they have an entirely different sound. Get it together people...if you can't hear the vast difference between their music, you need to clean out your ears.

[kadomox]

This might be a little overly anal but... What sport has both quarters and a goalie? I can't think of one.

[giggsyscholesfc]

@kadomox lacrosse



[kadomox]

@giggsyscholesfc Ah duh. Thanks.

[TheGrabasspants]

THEY NEED TO EXPRESS THEMSELVES IN ANY WAY THEY WANT. WE DO.

[skybabe007]

the videoo kills the whole songg . hes got some pretty eyelashes tho

[abell2828]

sucks... and you should both learn the song before you lip sync it....

[fyndor]

@NoReentry Fuck you asshole

[illigalalien69]

why are they on the phone when their like two feet from eachother?

[ecrumbs05]

@illigalalien69 good question! they're* :D

[Quiddid]

@illigalalien69

maybe they wanted to show that there is a distance between them although they seem to be close to each other...

[rugbybl00d33]

cool video, and good peripherals at 1:40, notice she spots the cop to her left. style points!

[russian1mafia]

@rugbybl00d33 LOL BRO!!!!!!!! where did u hear style points from? i say that shit all the time >.>

[MintyMyu]

LOOOOOLLLLL, okay how is the video NOT funny?

Driving on the phone is a nono (1:35)

Why are they always on the phone?

[deagleninja]

Is that Elvis?!?

[Goldfrontsreno]

I hope you got at least a C- in your high school videography class for this.

[Jstaal9]

song good. video blows



[xxsaraxx4u]

What i wanna know is why the never take the phone out of their hands....even when their standing right next to each other..?

[xxsaraxx4u]

What i wanna know is why the never take the phone out of their hands....even when their standing right next to each other..?

[dangerpancake]

i think the video was really well done i like it

[jayandtay09]

[IluvDestereyMoore]

I love how much the music video goes with it. It is clear what happened and the story flows nicely.(: Awesome job.

[batbatnipple]

o.o ever gunna get off the phone.......it will knnock money utta ya hand lol.

[namor561]

i firstheard this song 2 1/2 yrs ago while taking a walk listening to pandora on my phone. i was recovering from surgery and dealing with my wife wanting a divorce, it stopped me in my tracks ...it made too much sense hearing it at the time. it still hurts

[DonWhon875]

sick, i love the music video b.c its so low production, did you get an a on the project?

[ZionB07]

DAMN!

bitch was like"fuck yo couch"

[yurislav02]

@ZionB07 hahahahahahaa comment unrelated

[impresssunrise]

Way to ruin a good song with the hipster bullshit video.

[gonzitabella]

@impresssunrise Its just a home made video =) let them have some fun lol

[YoCallum]

That guy looks like the biggest bellend ever.

[meshen85]

2:41 - Quick penis glance, before realising what she's done and awkwardly looking away. Good times!

[javier911019]

great song and great sounds

[NakedCreep]

the video takes every single word too literally.

[anjipeace]

@NakedCreep yeah its pretty annoying

[ih8yewtoob]

This video is so good I actually threw up and shit my pants. 

[AwesomelyTom]

Almost 2 million views and only 422 dislikes? WTF?

[harobikes3three3]

@AwesomelyTom Why would you dislike it...? Did it "offend" you?

[daveke27]

419 people had nothing better to do than being ignorant idiots

[Darthplastic]

Her boob nearly falls out when ripping apart the bed.

[NamedLaughingBoy]

i love the way they're still talking on the phone while they're face to face. terrible video.

[pizoop21]

I love this song I used to sing it for my wife b4 she died I loved her (:

[johnlump2]

If this song doesn't make you smile than go get your ears checked out because your not listening

[EXmassa]

she's cute



[Linussi80]

OMG what scheisse!

[Tanyableu]

I remember hearing this for the 1st time...A group of co-workers, all way cooler than I, formed a comic book club. The 1 guy played this and it just...resonated, I guess

[WoodierAuto]

why does she trash his apartment? Never got the feeling she was super pissed from the song.

[intenseXauburn]

I really feel like this video captures the essence of the song. spot on.

[hotgeeakagerardway]

@intenseXauburn are you kidding?

[intenseXauburn]

I really feel like this video captures the essence of the song. spot on.

[philligatortears]

There should've been a sex scene with them on their cell phones. right? That would've made this video mildly funny.

[KingdomheartsCA]

this music video sucks. the song is amazing.

[zkhandwala]

It's a real shame (and a little surprising) that an official video was never made for this song. If nothing else, it might have kept videos like this from having been made ;-). (Seriously, though, this attempt isn't completely horrible. It's just way too literal and obvious for a Postal Service song!)

[hotgeeakagerardway]

@zkhandwala dude right..I agree with everyting your saying aha.

[starL46]

the guy in the video needs to cut his goatee cause he's starting to look amish

[bezems026]

new postal service video

/watch?v=qy1NSBg8nG0

[sexyEmma4u]

It's only the likes of bands such as THE POSTAL SERVICE and EARTH CULTURE that restore my faith in kick ass music!

[BlkPanda05]

saD TIMES with this no

[flupendiree]

[adelinesweetheart]

[Desterbad]

Just to say but I lost my virginity to this song.. Holly shiet it was amazing. Nothing more beautiful in the world then that moment.

[Velcro108]

@Desterbad I hope it lasted more than 4 minutes 11 seconds.

[bairnotforlong]

this reminds me of donkey kong :]

[HHNMovies]

Owl City < Postal Service. Suck one Adam Young.

[ilovetylerpowersjone]

[flwrpwrful]

[ChanningR]

@zackmonkey01 Long, LONG, before Owl City was even a twinkle in the music industry's wallet.

[Y50sYN1sT3R]

@zackmonkey01 fuck Owl City haha

[mikebarriga]

haha i love how literal you took the lyrics...when you were in front of the soccer net was out of control.

[amandolin0]

Love how she goes on a Tommy Wiseau rampage near the end, tearing the sheets off the bed and everything

[TheQueenMalika14]

gayest video EVER

[SingerTina]

This songs awesome, but this video kinda kills it

[skineph]

@SingerTina I agree this vdieo is horrible, what were they thinking these people can't act the parts or feel the music at all.

[SingerTina]

@skineph I know right, its terrible. I love the song though.

[skineph]

@SingerTina I agree this video is horrible, what were they thinking these people can't act the parts or feel the music at all.

[alphawolf83]

@SingerTina then ignore the video and enjoy the song

[MsCrazyproductions1]

@SingerTina i agree with you sooo true..

[in2theSky]

Would someone please call a surgeon , who can crack my rips and repair this broken heart

[CANADA5UCKS]

GAH. i will steal ben gibbards life, and be married to zoey daschoenel.

[GuessGsus]

[1337Ender]

[doublestackschris]

i think this video is clever.

[Yellowegle]

brilliant song, but video soooo cheap... better don't watch ;]

[woahbaby516]

you guys are so dumb, this video IS homemade. it was a project. shit, read the damn description. & really, not that many people worked on it, if you didn't notice, many of the names were mentioned more than once.

[MultiPurplestarz]

im guessing they spent the budget for this video on drugs...

[MultiPurplestarz]

is this really the OFFICIAL video?? cuz it looks soooo home mADE...like terrible acting or something... but i LOVE THE POSTAL SERVICE!!

[Shika511]

@MultiPurplestarz did you even glance at the description?

[MultiPurplestarz]

@Shika511 only the end credits which is y i think they spent the money on drugs, how could that many ppl working on a video do such half assed work??

[djkinney]

This is a good way to make a good song look like a shitty home movie! Alright! Go team!

[n0ll1e]

who is the girl that's singing?

[RobertWLeung]

@n0ll1e

She's Jen Wood.

[RobertWLeung]

@n0ll1e

She's Jen Wood.

[rehana950]

so Guys I really feel lonely today anyone wanna chat

[jarisafia]

Man, I was a country mouse in a brand new city when I first heard this song. My girlfriend had just found someone new and I was trying to find where I belonged (at an actor's conservatory -- the worst place to seek identity) and this really cute girl at a party introduced me to the Postal Service and this was the first song she played. We've been married for 5 years in two weeks.

[wilangeldrifter]

@jarisafia no just no

[fuzztanks]

@jarisafia AWE.

[wrnchhead76]

@jarisafia That is an excellent story!
