Its like the guy is kind of a shit dad, but he tries to be a good dad. Along the way he struggles with the responsibilities of being a parent and managing his work to family ratio of time which leads him on a journey that introduces new friends and new opportunities in a young man's life. A baby wanders aimlessly searching for the next distraction. A plethora of smells keeps the his mind wandering around in a landfill of wasted time. something about unwashed socks that have been underneath the couch to never be seen again. Will this chick please just do the laundry? oh right, this is a comment, Emmy The Great is awesowowome.
I don't like female songwriters, normally, but this is a moving song. If you can strike a chord with the blokes, then you are on to something. Keep it up Emmy!
I fucking love this. Emmy, you have a gift, come to the usa, come and stay at my house, I'll drink just enough to sing with you and you'll be so gracious as not to bash me or look at me funny.
The video doesn't fit very well even if it is funny. The song is so wonderful, I love how it sounds kind of jaunty and pretty and the lyrics are so horrifying.
It's a funny idea, badly done. I'm as bad a Dad as this guy! I saw her live a couple of days ago. She can really sing and it grips you listening to all the stories she tells. Let's face it she's not in the same league as Billy Bragg or Joni Mitchell yet but I hope she sticks with it.
The video is funny, but it's just too amateur, don't you think? Anyway, I love Emmy and I hope she's very succesful with her album! She could be big with a proper promo...but unfortunately, I don't think she'll have that ... I love her cameo!!
I always come back to this video once in a while. Its crazy to think that little baby was me 14 years ago.
I love this song!!
hmmm i fell like fall in love right now
Emmy the Great is supremely underrated. This song has been in pretty steady rotation for the last decade or so for me. I never get tired of hearing it
Sames
this song makes me really emotional, i'm trying not to watch it all the way through to keep from ballin'

why does the guy run like hes shit himself?
"And once I tried to make a life to keep myself in yours..."
Had that a couple of times... it hurts
'Karl Culley, Silver Set of Bones' Sort of like Emmy meets Radiohead/Bon Iver...go!
Wow.
@blikeredaxis there are many great female songwriters

Emmy says, "sorry, we're together."
The nu-folk movement in London is giving my hope for music and mankind.
I would like to be with a girl like Emmy. She is so kind, I love her.
love this song! she has such a great voice :)

Guy's shirt reminds me of Clockers...that was like 20 years ago.
Gotta start somewhere I guess

Is that Jaz with Emmy at 1:51, the one she sometimes mentions in her songs?

I like the hat of Emmy's friend, and am considering a similar purchase.

Crazy video, love it!
I was switched on to her thanks to her work with Lightspeed Champion but I'm very much digging her own stuff.

Lovely video, great song.
