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

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

john green's favorite song...

[Chris Futrell]

Story of Remus and Romulus. Abandoned by their mother, raised by wolves, founded Rome. It's really about overcoming an obstacle like abandonment.

Came here to say that.

That's a sexy illustration :)

You know when there's a bit of a song that gives you shivers when you hear because it's so awesome.. Yeah, that.

You say you aren't profiting, yet you have commercialization turned on, and play ads before the vid.... seems like trying to profit off of it to me.. Turn off ads.

What the fuckkkkk..?

That moment when you've listened to Sunset Tree so much you hear the start of "Lion's Teeth" as this one winds down, then realize it's only the single song.

Looks kind of like Ash from "Evil Dead" in a good way of course!

I love the part from 2:40 to the end so much :) And the song in general:)

[Avitaov]

Well if Remus hadn't died, Romulus would have, and the great city of Reme would be a little weird, right?
