- I edited this video to get straight to the music, cutting out the beginning part of talking and setting up a story. Many people will recognize the end of this song was used in the movie "Grandmas' Boy"

i need that umbrella.
for me this video made me assume that the umbrella logo looks like human spread legs, but if you take a look, im sure you and i would disagree, that i does not look like "human spread legs". 3:32 and the umbrella 3:35
He just dropped the umbrella as merch
"if this thing got released today, people would be freaking out about how future-forward it is" - JC from pitchfork was right imo
100%
"You didn't knock, Kane."
"I did. I think the music was a little loud."
"Are you afraid of it? "
"No. I just don't like techno."
"You would if you had robot ears..."
This song and video is everything. Simple, Complex, Original, Nostalgic, Hilarious, Terrifying, Something I once hated, Something I now love
Hahaha even today I cant tell whether I love or hate this song. Its both kinda disturbing and gross, but also really chill and pleasant.
This music video is a parody of US pop culture in the late 90s.
My take on it is that he is showing every windowlicker in the USA, that buys into mainstream hip-hop or pop, that he can do what they do better. the champagne popping scene at 4:27 is a great example of this.
The girls have Aphex Twin's face because, in this video, he is the windowlicker daydreaming of having god-like powers and having sexy females fawn over him.
This was so ahead of it's time. It sounds like it could've been made today.
the scene where the limousine drives in reminds me of spaceballs
lol. that giant spaceship
This song influenced Daft Punk's discovery album immensely. I had never heard it until reading their wiki..you can't definitely hear the similarities.
You can’t? I can hear the similarities on a definitive manner.
I, too, believe that we can hear the similarities in a definitive manner, Mr. Kingcob16.

4:27
"Kane, what did I say about knocking?"
"I did, I just think the music's a little loud."
"Are you afraid of it?"
"No.. I just don't like techno.."
"You would if you had robot ears.."
I remember first seeing this a long time ago and thinking "WTF did I just watch?". Glad they put this in GTA V.
I just shazam from gta 5 XD
I remember when I was like 10 and saw this video for the first time.
I was scared out of my mind.
15. I feel more sorry for you.
I remember when I was today years old having just seen this video again.
I was scared out of my mind.
WOA! I totally remember this video from way back on MTV when I was about 9 or 10. I was up really early before school and saw this. I only saw it once but man did it stick in my mind lol but yet I somehow forgot the name of this song and the artist. Years later I heard Aphex Twin's music and began to get into his stuff but now I'm realizing that this was by him. Talk about coming full circle lmao!
yup
This is the EXACT same thing that happened to me! Luckily I had older siblings who directed me towards the artist when I described the song to them.
Really?! Haha awesome! I am the oldest in my family though, and I didn't know how to describe anything I witnessed at the time lol
Haha exactly the same for me :)
Amazing, This vid was so mind blowing and at the same time scarry, that i have never forgotten it.
And thats the reason why i m watched it again and no i See the commands. Crazy
Best regards from germany
i can listen to this over and over and i'll never get sick of it. piece of art!
are u still listening to stuff like this
The slo-mo dancing part is probably the most artistic thing ever to be put on film. I love it, and not just for the obvious reason.
on one hand, i'd love to see a video of him in the studio creating this madness, but on the other; it would destroy the mystery and distance
I remember Aphex Twin from the early 90s when i was young... seeing "come to daddy" on MTV and thinking WTF is this shit... I never listened to them... Just by happenstance I discovered this track yesterday while looking at r/music's list of "TOO popular" singles... and have been listening to it on a loop for 24 straight hours.... I always liked prodigy and stuff but never gave Aphex Twin a fair shake... SO GLAD I DID:)
This video seriously freaked me out when I was younger. Particularly at the point around 4:18.
Still weird and creepy, actually. But definitely one of the most memorable, cool videos I've ever seen.
You are now aware that JP from Grandma's Boy was listening to this in his chair.
the sound of my cpu fan slowing down.
5.5 million ! Wild. I look back at this and think, my god the quality, yeesh.
At least the music quality is bearable. I'm sure there is a higher video quality in the links to the right ->
Thanks for stopping by here everyone.
Bro this is creapy
@@jaylenellsworth7456 creepy is spelled with 2 EEEEEEEEEEEEEs
I was 13 years old when this came out. Blew my mind then, still does now.
NOBODY ARRANGES MUSIC BETTER THAN APHEX TWIN!!!!
0:28 Me in the McDonalds Drive-Thru about to order some chicken nuggets.
Brayden Bachlott 🤣🤣
You mean the ground chicken beaks and rooster dicks held together with the tears of baby chickens .. you're wrong - it's pronounced "MCnuggets" 😉😝✌️
Увидел этот клип в 2007 а может быть раньше, невероятное дежавю вызывает, не мог понять что я увидел, мозг немного сломался, пытался объяснить увиденное другу. потом забыл название и вновь нашел автора и клип спустя долгие поиски в 2016 и с тех пор слушаю...
Вы бы посмотрели весь фильм, он неплохой
@@Assface69697 к сожалению нет такого фильма, только этот клип
This is my life every day
LOL!!!!
Chicks turn into rdj every day in your life?
😅
Oh the nostalgia.... :')
Thanks for sharing and for the hint (Grandma's Boy). I feel so sorry for seeing t only today May 19, 2020). PS I've just watched the movie
I've always been drawn to this song, even for RDJ the sounds are far out there.
I am very confused.
LOOL same here
My penis is confused.
Respect! He named his band after his Twin Brother who died in Birth... Great Artist.. I miss the early 90's... Music was just sick back then. Anyways.. he is also known for his videos obviously.. the music is awesome.. I could drive to this from LA to Las Vegas... and then just want to drive back again... ok with a car load of good friends...
i bought a Aphex Twin LP a few seconds agooo.... im sooo happy :>>>>>
I am loving this with my robot ears
Grandsma boy!!!
I recognized this song was in Grandma's Boy (I actually watched it today)! When that part of the movie came up, I was like, "Hey, that's Windowlicker by Aphex Twin, but it's in a different key."
I didn't expect to hear this piece in a movie. When the guy said that he wasn't into techno, I wish the J.P. character said, "It's not techno, it's Aphex Twin!" :P
Good promotion. xD How many of you knew this piece before knowing it was in Gandma's Boy, like I have? Haha.
So good.
Jus dropped some acid, see yall soon !
Dylan Newell 2 years later, he's still high
3 years later, he's still high
He's still high
4 years later and he still hasn't seen anyone.
How was it man?
those little kid voices get stuck in my head!!! i havent been able to listen to any other music besides Aphex Twin for a few days now! damn yeah!!!
glad this song is on gta 5 everytime I hear this song on flylo I get in my Bugatti I bump this and pick a hooker up
;O
4:20 gives me nightmares.
because its 420
+Megalodon64 Iti's like a bunch of water buffalo
BIG FACTS
Then you're probably smoking too much. Or too little.
Oh man this song brings memories from my graduation year 1999 xD. Which was an EPIC summer!!
3:58 waaah!! What the f*ck is that?!!!
Hahaha!! LOL!!
Time to go to sleep and have nightmares!
If only the quality of art was determined by the amount of effort put into it....
this song scares me and idk why
Watch his video "come to daddy" 😎
0:38 never knew pablo iglesias rode a limo
IT DOES LOOK LIKE HIM
After the dancing when it all just changes and unfolds reminds me of waking up in a hot afternoon sleeping in my car coming down off of meth with my mouth dry from lack of water the music is exactly how one feels when experiencing this crazy video too yet I can't stop watching
3:12 "J'aime faire des craquettes au chien.. "
1999 brought me here.
This most likely, the greatest video created by man.
Ever.
Like if you aren't here from GTA5 and your here because you actually have a good taste in old school electro!!!!
this is old school now? i remember this being on tv, what do you mean old school
Sarcasm?
IDM not electro
No.
@@LucaCordinaMusic idm is subgenre of electronic so hes still right...
is there just a grandma's boy version? i.e 4:27 - 5:42
Type in aphex twin Window licked outro
This song was used by THINK! in a road safety advert in cinemas called "Pink Kittens" in 2017. The point of the ad was to show how dangerous distracted driving can be.
@timecapsule. nice. I found that safety video on UA-cam. Hate the song slowed down but love the video and the message as someone who has a motorcycle. It's really scary out there.
This song makes me nauseos. No idea how to spell that. But in a good way.
wtf did i just watch? but the music is at least cool
I remember seeing this for the first time while heavy on dose and I didnt know how much of it was real and how much I was imagining
GTA V anybody?

No.
Fuck You UA-cam I Don't Want To Change My Name. Like if you came here from twitch after hearing this on Terrais channel
why do you hate me ?
mrdtmaurice I came here because I can't find my CD. That I've owned for many years.

One of the Best songs, EVER!
Aphex..Richard David James is a genius...he grew up near to me. thank you for all the inspiration! Your music is so sexy! x
Pure gold out there.......you just have to dig through the mainstream to find it. ;0)
5.5 mil views. seems pretty unknown to me... rofl.
midterms are coming up and this song does wonders for studying especialy at the end. puts me in a trance
just watched this all the way through and I'm purely baffled
Best music video EVER!!
I remember watching this song when it came out, shit was way ahead of the times.
Just listened to this song several times over ... despite the perverse video, its strangely pure.
This is one of the greatest music videos ever. When I first saw this back in the day, I thought it was both hilarious and disturbing. The disturbing thing to me now is that its now normal.
this song drives me wild, i can seriously just sit in space and think nothing of it while listening to this!
Genius sums up every single cliché mainstream hip hop video aphex is quality
love this quality
I saw Aphex Twin live 3 days ago! It was AMAZING! And it was his birthday too!!!!! *____*
finally not 5 minute of video until this beat kicks in ! :D
i always see this as a critic and mimic to those many rap videos of that time, and since then...
I think it's just the simple fact that Aphex Twin is a more sublime music experience.
I've been a fan of Aphex Twin since DrukQs came out...and when i saw that this was included in gta V i didn't mind the least. He's finally getting some well deserved recognition.
Also,...only listening to windowlicker by equals wearing a nirvana shirt and only being able to name...you know it. So get on out there, and give DrukQs a listen (brilliant stuff)
First time I saw this video I was laughing so hard I could barley draw a breath of air. And it still makes me chuckle.
This video creeped the hell out of me back when it came out.
this is pretty much the audiovisual definition of being high...
i like it..
reminds me of maybe day 3 being up night after night, falling out then waking up around 3pm in my car under the dry sun, dry mouthed and wondering "okay now where am i"? This would be the music for that moment, just after after the after after party. when there's no more left.
I love this track, since release ^^ ... every morning heard ..were i was walking to school ^^
I'm very happy I know everyone in that list and especially that you placed prototyperaptor in the list :D a little less that you didn't include daft punk but oh well.
@rcrkar3 I on the other hand am glad, that he brought you (and some others) here, because Aphex Twin is effing awesome.
what i wouldnt give to be back in time, and be that suprised at the possibility of sound and music, no thumbs or replies
amazing...even after 13 years.
thanks for reminding me bout miguel migs - havent listened to that for ages . off now to find it again. :)
I dunno what it is about this track, but I just can't stop listening to it!
I knew this song before gta and i fucking screamed when i heard it on the radio.
Music video of the year all years.
This is really cool man, Like how fucked up and trippy this is. Defs getting high to this
I can conclude that the day I found out about this video was the precise moment when I became a cold, hollow shell of my former self.
I love chris Cunningham but someone I know watched too much and passed out unlike most things there is too much and starts to make u feel like I'm on drug(S) I just tried to watch it before bed and stopped it as the window rolled down in terror but is the best video on UA-cam
"Are you afraid of it?"
"No, I just don't really like techno."
"You would if you had robot ears."
@KaceQ219 the whole song is Aphex. If you've heard it anywhere else it's been sampled from this song.
This is some sweet electronic.nothing like old days :)
I watched this tune on the itunes visualiser stoned out of my mind after several good toots, it changed my life.
This video freaked me out when I first saw it.
all i want for christmas is this video in 1080p
damn i was really scared of 3:58 when I was 12
SNAP- He even got his own umbrellas!
i cant get enough of this song
Genius producer no one comes close still
Whatever drug this is supposed to simulate, I don't think I've ever taken it.
