what is the comic used as the background? every time i listen to this song i see comments about the comic and i have always wondered what it is

@DChaussee04 Y: The Last Man. It's considered one of the best comics of all time, and the best of the past decade. If you're even slightly interested in comics, I would give it a read. It's about every single male of every mammal species dying at the same time, except for Yorick, the guy in the picture, and his monkey. The book is an adventure as he travels around the world, constantly dodging other nations' attempts to capture him, looking for why he is the only man to survive

does this song have something to do with the comic book? i dont understand the connection

[jumpanama]

No, the song just reminds me of the comic is all

Did Youtube ads just get shittier?

[afriedman174]

I'm assuming the lines "they will shake their heads...we'll be gone" are about constantly moving because the neighbors are passively disapproving? I mean, John grew up in a lot of different places, is that why

I absolutely love this band. I saw them and Final Fantasy a few years ago. Quite possibly the best show I have ever attended. I highly recommend Final Fantasy (Owen Pallett) if you guys haven't given him a listen.

@jumpanama if you're not profiting from this publication etc etc, then why do you show a long advertisement before the video.

A few more minutes of this playlist and these guys will be my new favorite band.

And U2's been my uncontested favorite band since, like when I started listening to music.
