To celebrate the end of PLACEMENT week, where I'm showing love to my record that never got a proper release, I'm happy to finally drop the video for Best Friend the Floor. Making it involved building an entire set inside my bedroom with a plexiglas floor, adventures in needle felt stop motion animation, and driving a stick shift Miata on the PCH. Enjoy!!!
be seeing you in la
I really love your particular style of artistry and think it's great you've surrounded yourself with a community of equally talented and creative people. What a beautiful way to live! I always look forward to anything you put out. From the spoken word to your writing, and the music, I appreciate each new thing you try. Can't wait to see what the future holds. ❤
Just recently got into your music at a really hard time in my life, please keep making more, you got a knack for what you do.
I love the video so much! (As well as the rest of placement) im sososo excited to see you in concert for the intention tour soon! Thanks for you great music, its truly helped me through a lot :)
I feel like I went through a time warp back to a more simple time living in North Lake Powell early 2020. This song was my soundtrack to that. Ticaboo wut up?!
I don’t think this song will ever get old
i’ve listened to this song at least 100x and it never fails to make me cry happy tears
If this was by a mainstream artist, they’d be talking about this music video for decades to come.
It’s always a good day to be a Watsky fan ❤
always
Omgggg I MET WATSKY THE DAY THEY SHOT THE BEACH SCENES!! BEST DAY OF MY LIFE. I was working and he was just there looking at cheese 😩🫶🏽🫶🏽
Youre easily the best artist in the world when it comes to lyrics, music, music videos, fan interaction and creativity. Don't ever leave us man ❤️
Always dropping exactly what I need to hear, exactly when I need to hear it. ❤

To now have a visual basis for this song is wonderful and absolutely beautiful. I feel that my mental image of this song was literally most of this music video. Bravo George!
Yet another amazing song. Love your stuff, friend. When you feel low again, just know you've got us 💙
This morning this is my anthem. Thank you George and crew.
This was my favourite song on the Placement album so I'm so glad it finally got a music video! Loved the animation and everything!
Yeeah right. This one deserved a music video for sure
I listened to this song so many times during the first year of lockdown, hiding in my house and only going back and forth from my room to my office to work my remote job, then back again. I was lucky I even got to do lockdown properly, but it was hard, and music helped a lot.
Ive listened to placement on repeat so much, this is one of my favorite songs from it! I didn't think i could like it more until the music video came out! I love this so much! :)
This is an adorable and sweet music video to one of my favorite songs to listen to when I'm feeling down! As always, a nice reminder that things will be okay because I've been down before. 🙂
This song got me through a lot of the early pandemic, so reading the note at the beginning here was super wild. Thank you for everything
I have watched this one over 100 times now. I LOVE this, classic George and a real worm and one I am happy to keep playing over and over in my head. Looking forward to seeing it done live... PLEASE come to the UK George.
I saw George in Glasgow. Did you catch him?
Great track, but the title card at the end is what really blows my mind. Genius.
I could hear the beginning of Savage echo in my head as soon as the song ended
I miss the old fast rap watsky, ive been listening to all the old ahit 🔥
Love y'all just dancing together ❤️❤️❤️
What a funky lil guy
I love this so much, the references to Santa Cruz are on point.
Going to the beach tomorrow, Thanks Watsky.
I never imagined this would be the video for this song. But it’s so perfect and silly. I love it.
Unending gold mine
Damn, this video was so smooth. I'm putting at #2 in my all time favorite music videos that involve some dudes driving around in a convertible, right after "Summer Jam" by Benny Davis...
Words cannot describe how much I relate to this.
This is exactly what I needed.
How have I never noticed that the three albums line up like that at 4:14 :O Mind-blown, as always xD Much love from Santa Cruz
That little mouse is quite a mood
So glad your still working hard. Don't stop get it get it
Thank you Watsky and Crew
Funny, I had Linoleum by NOFX stuck in my head all week... "that's right, I've got a floor... my closest friend, linoleum"
I really like this song because it is more like your earlier stuff, which I fell in love with.
Nice track, what a dope feeling it conveys.
YESSSS!!! I love Best Friend the Floor so much!!!!
Great song, love the MX5 / Miata too!
i first saw you when you started to actually gain traction, and i loved you then and i still love you now. but touring or something looks to be taking a toll on you brother, please just stay healthy and stay safe out there. Thanks for being an inspiration.
this would have been a great video to lift people's spirits during covid don't know why he would shelve this !
This will always stay one of my favorites, I can't even begin to count the times I've needed to play it as loud as possible on a destination-less drive.
I LOVE THE LITTLE DANCE MOVES
I love the stop motion animation!!! So cute
This album got me through those early pandemic days. Thank you for that.
LETS GOOOO!!! WIPPLEJIG FOR LIFE!!!
Glad you decided to release this one!
Love to see the Content flowing George, wish it was more regular as we love to hear the genius at work. The one thing I noticed and dislike is the fact you have no upcoming tour dates up here in the Canada more specifically Vancouver :)
Hands down my fav track on this album
I love the animation and that sweet ass Miata!
one of my favourtive Watksy songs. So glad it has music video
Wonder why this vibe took so long to surface... Well done.
I'm so glad this was released because it reminded me how much I love this song. Can't wait for the show in NYC
Absolutely in love with this music video. The stop motion with the little red car reminds me so much of The Mouse and the Motorcycle. Such nostalgia
Music to the next level
Love it. You're just super intelligent man. Been watching you since the Tedtalks.
Beautiful.
I was so worried this got cancelled due to the pandemic. Watsky showed a very short preview of behind the scenes during his Placement release livestream. Hadn't heard anything about it since and just figured due to the chaos of Covid it got cancelled halfway through, never to see the light of day. Glad I was wrong, that was great. :)
I'm really happy you gave a little more love to this album, each of your albums meant something different to me, but PLACEMENT specifically came out at a time when I really needed it and it felt like each song was perfect for what I was going through.
It's cool cuz I been listening to you for EVER! And now my kids enjoy your music as well. Full 🔵 ❤
This is hands down my favorite music video you have made!! Great work everyone involved :))
so much more beautiful than what my mind conjured listening to it. your creativity is such a gift I wish we could all photosynthesize it or something.
i didnt know how much i needed to hear this song till this moment. thank you
One of my favorites, so glad to see a music video! So very cool!
I'm so happy we are getting a video for this song and cant wait to see you on tour
Pure serotonin
This looks like it was a lot of fun to shoot. ❤
Super worth the wait. Thanks for putting this video out.
Panucci's pizza box alone was enough for a 5 star video
I've always loved this song the most off of Placement... Made me feel heard and uplifted, sad and happy at the same time.
This is so well made. The mouse snacking on the silica gel was a cool touch 🤣
Love this song! I love seeing your beautiful face and heart in music videos! I’m down for music videos for all past projects for the next few years! ❤
This is delightful
The dancing gave me vitality
Old school Watsky back with a bangin' new tune. AWESOME
I didnt listened to Watsky for a long time, but decided to come here and see whats news...
What a masterpiece bro, good job!!!
Today I am vibing with this little mouse
Oh shit. It's my best friend! 😵💫

HEY WATSKY!! Just went to listen to your pale kid raps fast video & it made me wanna go through your videos & found this one you posted a day ago of best friend the floor. Honestly your a dope ass lyricist & fw your metaphors a lot.
I've been wishing for a music video on this track and today was the day a wish came true..
Well done Watsky! Great to see your growth as an artist and I love what you're doing with the new studio.
always one of my fav watsky tracks im so glad the music video is so so good
DUDE THIS IS AMAZING YESSSSSSS
YES. Been a minute since a watsky was on repeat for me, but this one kills. Nice!
The animation mouse is the best part...so funny to watch👍😹
JUST WHAT I NEEDED TODAY YES!!
Love the Stewart little references
This my fav song from this album 🔥🔥
I feel like an absolute fool for not noticing the last 3 albums go together like they did at the end of this video. That's really clever.
Fav song off the album lfg
First time hearing this today and I like it. Good job Watsky.
