I've never been afraid of dying or worried about any of the dangers in this song... yet despite the fact that my problems are so different from being killed by a shark or hit by a train, this song is so reassuring and full of hope. It makes me feel so much better. Thank you, BNL.
I'd go as far as to say underappreciated because most people know them only for One Week. I admit it's catchy (hell, I watched the Digimon movie religiously as a kid so I clearly can't forget it even if I tried), but they have so many better songs like Brian Wilson (which was the song that made me realize just how great they can be.)
I have GAD that can really impact my everyday life negatively with all the sadness and constant worrying. Listening to this song always seems to help me get centered when I've had a stressful day. So glad for BNL :)
OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this song it was superb when you performed it live here in Colorado at Red Rocks i wish you were coming back so i could see it all again!! so happy
BNL, been a huge fan since the mid 90's. Especially hearing your song One Week in the English release of Digimon the Movie when I was a kid. This band along with a few others, always help to keep things upbeat even if some are worrying about the "what ifs". This is why we should live every day to the fullest by the ways we individually know best. This band has gone above and beyond in helping communities and other organizations to help others. May this band be remembered for all times as the Oddballs of Fun.
Totally agree so many smiles and i never mind not having a voice the next day. I have been going to see them since i was 5 years old and now i am 22 and have only missed 1 show that came through. LOVE THEM!!
I remember hearing this song sooo long ago on the radio. It just randomly popped back into my head and after so long I'm hearing the song again with a way different understanding that I approached it from all those years ago.
***** yeh i had it at my grandma's retirement home, they have a little restaurant in the home and i ordered passionfruit juice and a grilled cheese sandwich and the juice was so good i asked for seconds, the sandwich was good too but the juice was out of this world
The inevitability of death is no fun, right? So amazing how Barenaked Ladies springboard into words of celebration and comfort. Their lyrics steal the show.
I had the lyrics stuck in my head all day while at work and i just spent a good 20 minutes lyric searching it, and ended up going through the playlist from the radio station. Great song
I have to be honest, I don't subscribe to BNL or know any other songs of theirs. But I subscribe to RoosterTeeth and they shared this with me (not just me) in a time I found very very dark. I was contemplating very serious things and I saw no way out, and sometimes I wonder how I managed, and I remind myself 'it was those ladies? The bare naked ones' ;) I thank you for showing me the way forward in life itself BNL.
I was on my way to a wake for an aquaintantace who passed away in Calgary this week from cancer. I was thinking of him today. Then this song played at the store we shopped at to bring his girlfriend some gifts. We had a party to honor his 58 short years on this earth. His demeanor was odds are we're going to be alright. Thanks Dennis. It was great to know you. We're going to miss you. 1962 to 2020
Hey. It's R.J. All I wanna do is say to everyone it's the holidays and it's when we all gather. Time to reflect and enjoy our loved ones. I am 52 and It's a complex world. I hope at some point we all understand there is one race. The human race. And rather than have conflict with difference we learn and educate. I know it sounds out of reach but the only way to progress is unification. Faith and love is the power
You guys never cease to amaze and enthral me. LOVE your music!!! Hope you're all living the dream as I know I'd be living mine, if I had a million dollars...
I am SO HAPPY! I heard this song on the radio, and fell in love with it, but they didn't say the name :(. So for the past two months I've been searching for it like searching for my true love! :) The odds that I found this song were small, but I did it!
This song came on the radio as my D of E group was driving back from the end of our Gol final expedition (4 days hiking and 3 nights camping). It was like Barenaked Ladies knew what we were going through!!
Does anyone know what he says at the beginning of the song, right before the lyrics start. It's not on this version, but it is on the iTunes version. Thanks
My #1 tip for cases like this is always, remember at least one lyric phrase in the song, then type it into google and write "lyrics" at the end. I found everything that way :)
It’s November 2024. I needed this song today. Thank you ❤❤
Tbh same 😭
I've never been afraid of dying or worried about any of the dangers in this song... yet despite the fact that my problems are so different from being killed by a shark or hit by a train, this song is so reassuring and full of hope. It makes me feel so much better.
Thank you, BNL.
This song has helped me through so many bad mental health days. Love these guys.
I regret that I didn’t find this gem sooner.
I have wasted 7 years of my life without this song😱
The barenaked ladies is probably one of the most underrated group ever
Probs cuz of the name

@@ZeldaEd123 all you have to do is listen not judge it and that is what we did
@@YorksLancsTransportHub I know. I just don't think BNL should only be defined by One Week.
check into : The Tavistock Institute, media subvert subconsciously.
Missed the band, searched them, found this song, now I'm hooked. Brilliant lyrics as always.
I have GAD that can really impact my everyday life negatively with all the sadness and constant worrying. Listening to this song always seems to help me get centered when I've had a stressful day. So glad for BNL :)
Such a comforting, feel-good song. BNL has always been one of the smartest bands ever.
I just discovered this song today at work and it was stuck in my head so hard. I couldn't wait to get home and show my boyfriend. Good song.
This is not only a great song, but who ever put together this video did a fantastic job. Both made my day greatly thank you!
does it count if I fall in love with the song? 😊
i was listening to this with the one im in love with
Sure it does
Lol
Odds are... Gelica
Odds are you’re gonna be just fine lol
" Oh, I really like this song? What's the band name? "
*"Uhh.."*

What a sweet song! I'm going to add it into my personal "happy songs list" from now on, for times where I might not feeling that good, thanks for this
Needed this song today, thanks.

this song should be more popular
Arianna McKinney I agree
Ikr
It was. It was blasted on the radio every 30 minutes. Gets insane when you're working an 8 hr shift in retail.
@@redDL89 Odds are you'd survive it
Especially this year
I remember hearing this song sooo long ago on the radio. It just randomly popped back into my head and after so long I'm hearing the song again with a way different understanding that I approached it from all those years ago.
Awesomely awesome in an awesome way
***** passionfruit juice is awesome
hmm i will try this juice you speak of.

what video did they talk about this song in? i cant remember
ReeryRed Love They posted the whole music video of this song on their channel as they are good friends (as i have heard in the past) hope this helps.
ohh right. thanks :D
no problem
Braeden O'Brien there were members of Roosterteeth in the video. They were the reason I found the song, but I was already a fan of BNL.

One of my top 5 favourite Canadian bands. Great song!

They were awesome in Salt Lake. I got funny looks from the young kids there because I was singing along with EVERY song. I really like this new album.
I did fall in love at the end of this song... I fell in love with this song
You guys never cease to amaze and enthral me. LOVE your music!!! Hope you're all living the dream as I know I'd be living mine, if I had a million dollars...
I love this song!!! Odds are 100 to 1 that this is one of my favorite songs.

Odds are this song
will probably stick with me
all night... Beautifully catchy!
I was at Red Rocks for the show, too! Loved every second of it. BNL makes me smile, everytime!
FINALLY an awesome song about probabilities and possibilities
it's so catchy...i can't stop listening
still the best piece of kinetic typography I've ever see IMO. Doesn't hurt that the song's fantastic AND it's linked to Rooster Teeth either.
Look up "Nobody Tells This to Beginners" from Creavite. It's a kinetic text video of a great Ira Glass quote, and it's very cool.
And relating to the song and Rooster Teeth... Why didn't they use the Rooster Teeth video for the official version?!? It's Brilliant!!!
This is good kinetic typography. I still think the one for Shop Vac by Jonathan Coulton is better, but this is still very good.
Totally getting this played at my funeral
Same
Why... This makes like no sense for a funeral
Because it's my funeral, and that's how I want it to be. If you don't like it, don't come.
Okay.. I don't have a problem with it. I was confused because its a love song.
Anthony Jackson I'm really confused on why you think it's a love song. More about living with taking risks and not being afraid of the odds...
here I am falling in love with the song by the end of the song
This is the epitome of musical and lyrical genius.
La mejor canción del mundooooooo
Yep 👍
Im a pretty cynical person but this song gives me hope in a way. Ive always loved BNL but this song is by far one of their best!
yes is fantastic im from Ecuador and im listening that song twice for day maybe and i dont get bored never
"Yeah, you guys.. Just do you.. But once an album, make one of those one hit wonders."
I'm glad you guys are still around.
This chorus this the only thing getting me through the Covid pandemic
Same, my dude. I literally remembered this when I started socially isolating and it was the first song on my quarantine playlist
@@peanutbutterjelly9753 My soothing channel of 7 acres might help even more. What pandemic?
Love this song ❗👍💖💝💟💓 Fits in nicely on my weekly
📻playlist of REM & the B52's.🔊💻🎧🎵🎶🎼📀📼❕
I love this song. It's super catchy and I find myself singing it often. You had a great performance of it in Detroit!
This song got me through the quarantine
LIES!!! I have not once fallen in love by the end of this song! and i have heard it like 8 times already!!! ;)
its all odds
***** Lol best friend get friendzoned noob :D
It says 23 to 1 so you need to listen to it at least 15 more times :D
Went against the odds, we did.
***** He said 'could,' not 'will' :p
The odds are that we will probably be in love with this song by the end of it.❤
Love this song so much
I listened to this song 6 years ago
I came back and the nostalgia is too real
Barenaked still doing their thing! Canada represent!
Best song! IM PLAYING THIS AT MY WEDDING FOR SURE
+Madison Davidson This is Oddly Good!(See what I did there?)
I mean this is a better idea then the buffoon that said he wanted it played at his funeral
Glad to see an old friend from the pop world I knew growing up with a new hit song.
Love this song. So fun and positive. They just played this in Church. I go to First U Providence.
Wait what’s your religion cause this has a swear
This song hit different next to EMS at their concert last week
I fell in love my the end of this song.... with this song!
0:50 Can't stop the A-Train!!!
this is so very heartening
I usually don’t sing along, but can’t help with this one
I wonder how he is still alive and it is a good song.
This song is so optimist and uplifting
I love it!
this is by far my favorite song!!
I like this. I get really stressed and It actually was really relaxing to have a song to tell me not to worry. Thanks guys.
I love this song!! It just makes me want to get up and dance around the house or down the street =)
My favorite song... Like ever... I could listen to it all day!
Awesome song guys! Can't get enough...
Great! Now i'm going to sing this loudly for a couple of days or it will never leave me alone. Its a great song.
Came and left, and now I'm back again . . . great chorus!
Underrated! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
These guys are simply amazing!!! love!!!
i recognized them instantly when i first heard them on the theme tune at the beginning of season 1. it blew my mind!
"fall in love by the end of this song." i defiantly fell in love by the end of the song... fell in love with this band :D
This is awesome and fun! Love the animation going along with the lyrics.
Classic and New BNL all in the same song! Love it!
I really like how this is put together.
I'm really starting to like this band
Still?
Always genius and amazingly talented band
this is my favorite song ever
Check out some of their other stuff! Their songs are awesome, but this one is definitely up there.
The boys still got it! They got style and an edge, I love it
I did fall in love, with this song :3
You guys are awsome
IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS SONG FOR OVER A YEAR YEAH
Congratulations this is mine and my husband's song. we did in fact fall in love by the end of this song🥰
This song came on the radio as my D of E group was driving back from the end of our Gol final expedition (4 days hiking and 3 nights camping). It was like Barenaked Ladies knew what we were going through!!
OMG! How did you make this lyric video?? Wow, this is awesome..
can't get this song out of my head omg
My anthem for 2020.
Does anyone know what he says at the beginning of the song, right before the lyrics start. It's not on this version, but it is on the iTunes version. Thanks
Beast song ever
Is there anything more counter-cultural in this day and age than being the kind of relentless optimist that this song personifies?
I love how you release lyric videos. Actual music videos usually ruin a good song.
By far the best song ever
Canadians for the win!!!!
One of my faves from the new record!
This a bop
My #1 tip for cases like this is always, remember at least one lyric phrase in the song, then type it into google and write "lyrics" at the end. I found everything that way :)
