I remember finding this band at 12 because my awesome cousin downloaded all of his music onto my I pod for me. I love this band forever, gave me some of the best memories, especially with my mom. She immediately fell in love with it when I showed her
This song and vid has every thing i love in it..break dancing, Chuck Taylors, dirty lyrics,trippy visuals, synth, regular looking guys with great voices.....just perfect.
Got dragged to a Thursday concert in Salt Lake City back in 2006, Minus the Bear opened for them, got a much bigger applause and call for an encore then the headline. They are/were amazing live, enjoyed their music ever since.
My god Ive fallen in love with this band. They are so talented. Its refreshing knowing there are still bands out there that care about making quality music.
That old tropes still not true! Bands never decreased in quality. It was the distribution and executives of the labels that quit pushing talent in exchange for easy money. It’s 2022 and there’s still no shortage of great bands.
Damn I’m probably one of the newest comments ... I’m still listening to minus the bear religiously lmao.. I heard them off of saints row 2 not gonna lie looked them when I was a kid and never looked back one of my favorite bands guaranteed
80s hints: synchronized back up dancers, break dancer, and stop motion effects. With the use of the omnichord in play this video fits in perfectly! And it has humor.
True. Video Director had to shoot footage for a Children's Pre-School Program for PBS and shots for a Music Video. He had limited time. Killed two birds with one stone.
I love the clothes changing colors constantly. And the shoe that keeps changing feet with the music tone is awesome too. And all the ladies hands on your face....allright, I'll stop now. Loved the video.
Good track. But why are bands coming up with "X the Y" names? It's kinda stupid. Cage the Elephant, Foster the People, Portugal the Man, Young the Giant.... /end old man rant
T.C. Bramblett I think he was pointing out the structures styles of band names go through phases just like other aspects of music. Every genre and generation is guilty of it.
I forgot this song existed until it randomly popped into my head just now.
Nothing beats driving to the beach jamming to minus the bear, it’s a godly feeling, minus the bear is a lifestyle I swear it.
Man, I miss 2010
Same
Sameee:(
;( ditto
I saw them the last 3 times they played in MI, their incredible live.
I'm a 90's kid, so, I actually NEVER thought I would say this, but...man, me too.
Dave: holds up the Omnichord right before the Stylophone solo.
I just remember my blackberry in 2011 coming with this song 😂
yup
Yooo that's when I discovered this song. 2011, times were good
I miss these days 😩
Twelve years have passed, and I'm still listening to this amazing band. Greetings from Brazil to all, and 2022 is here to be experienced. Let's go!

Two things I love in this video:
1) Bearded Men
2) Minus The Bear
Minus the beard
I miss these times so much.
i miss my brother Brendan. he took his life a year ago. this was his favorite band. i miss him
He had good taste. Rest in peace.
@@huludicidal TY
Finally after a long time searching, I finally found this gold old song😭
This is an awesome song. I've never heard of them before til just a about an hour ago. These guys are awesome. The video is sick.
I saw them the last 3 times they played in MI, their incredible live.
"And you're holdin onto me like an old love, that you know every inch of. Then I feel you start to go..." that's all kinds of right.
Just saw this Amazement of a band live in Mexico City 4hrs ago!!!. And the way they sound live
nothing like listening to Minus the Bear on a ride back home at night
This song and vid has every thing i love in it..break dancing, Chuck Taylors, dirty lyrics,trippy visuals, synth, regular looking guys with great voices.....just perfect.

This video never gets old.
Has anybody watched this video? My god. The special effects are out of this world. Always can count on this band to provide.
MTB please come back to us😢
Thank you BlackBerry Torch 9860 for introducing me to this absolute banger of a song

Such immense repsect for making amazing music and retiring long before the car show set.
I saw them the last 3 times they played in MI, their incredible live.
B-Girl Shorty, Marie Poppins, and Bonita make this video that much more AWESOME!!!
I just saw them @ Terminal 5 in NYC on saturday! Just awesome awesome! One of the best live shows i've ever been to.
Bring back minus the bear in 2024 for a tour we could use it out here ❤️😎
That would be awesome. I found a band that's been filling my Minus The Bear void. They're called Delta Sleep.
Okay, seriously, standing ovation to all who put this music video together. The music is amazing, but this video is GENIUS. I love it!
proof?
This is my favourite song of all time!
Devon Austxin
Humans are confusing... Having said that I'm off to check out more of this band.
The fact that Dan was in Botch has given me an even greater appreciation and respect for this band than I'd previously held
Love this band, love their music, love this song
I saw them the last 3 times they played in MI, their incredible live.

Very nice song and great clip. Hope to hear more of them in the future...
I remember blasting this on my Blackberry Apollo. The video came as a demo on the phone but it was 🔥 🔥.

One of my all-time favorite music videos. Such a good band.
I remember seeing this live at bamboozle 2010 smoking a blunt. Good times man…. Good times
I got this song on my blackberry
+Jeanpierre Mata where can i get a blackberry no touchscreen bs
princeofwetness1 Idk
+Jeanpierre Mata +princeofwetness this is legit my favourite conversation on UA-cam! :)
i am here because of that.
me 2 xD
One of the coolest music videos ever made.
The things youtube lets me stumble upon... I approve.
this video is like a contemporary artist would sing as a hobby
Great start to the best album by the band. You really showed them with this album. Maturing from Menos El Oso to this is magnificent. Good job, guys
this video is so simple and i love the hell out of it.
I wasn't expecting this coming here from searchin Botch. Not bad.
This is the band Dave Knudson did after Botch
Yeah i got here the same way and got something a lot less heavy than I expected.
can't help but think of "we are heroes".....
Kind of makes me think of OK Go.. Just me?
only 15 out of 1MM+ huh?
Me too!
exactly what I was thinking
the music's better tho, sorry for stating my opinion
I just listen to okay go before this lol
This is my favorite CD
The "Band Look" appears to be Community College IT, evening classes......unaccredited.
Hohoh, clever.
Axis Garret its just t shirts and pants?
...and ain't it grand? A band that cares more about their music than their looks. What a novel idea. :-/
too accurate!! The back up dancers also remind me of those cheesy community college commercials from the early 2000's
I’m 12 years late. Never heard this before but it’s great.
i love how every one of their songs is about sex lmao. i love these guys so much.
I saw them the last 3 times they played in MI, their incredible live.
I’m obsessed. For 8 years.
They look like they accidentally walked into a music video and had no clue what to do
Strangely accurate.
True. Video Director had to shoot footage for a Children's Pre-School Program for PBS and shots for a Music Video. He had limited time. Killed two birds with one stone.
I dunno if they were trying to make this vid funny but It’s the funniest most awkward music vid
what a cool groove. the melody is great. gonna check this band out.... funny, i heard of them in one of those BS music channels on cable tv...
An unskippable 2 minute ad ? What the Fuck UA-cam this is getting out of hand
You need an ad blocker dude. It will change your life.
Spencer Evans Haha yeah man, thats a good idea i will do that.
Soylent Green No really, get one. The internet minus ads.
Spencer Evans Damn Skippy:) My life was changed a while back and it's another planet:)
+Spencer Evans How do you get ad blocker? Is it safe and/or cost anything?
I love the clothes changing colors constantly. And the shoe that keeps changing feet with the music tone is awesome too. And all the ladies hands on your face....allright, I'll stop now. Loved the video.
These Guys must have worked at RUBY TUESDAYS
So awesome.
Imagine the constant wardrobe changes it took when filming this
they really have gone far. much respect fr this group.
The singer looks like Luke Skywalker in The Force Awakens...
Nah, Nick Offerman.
No. Chris D'elia.
JESUS
Adore adore and adore
Sounds like something straight out of a Persona game.
Thank
I'd love to see a behind the scenes video of this.
when you search -
girls dancing for 5 lonely magic wardrobe dudes
*_-_*
J'aimee!! Super cliip, & les danseurs sont top!
The video doesn't do the song justice, at all. This one jamz too hard to have this mickey mouse production.
Great point
I still find it hard to believe the lead guitarist for Minus the Bear was the lead guitarist for Botch. Blows my damn mind constantly.
Good track. But why are bands coming up with "X the Y" names? It's kinda stupid. Cage the Elephant, Foster the People, Portugal the Man, Young the Giant.... /end old man rant
T.C. Bramblett The Who, The Police, The Beatles, The Beach Boys, The Byrds, The Clash, The Cure, The Ramones.......
Yeah but I wasn't talking "The X" I was specifically talking about "X the Y". Like I said.
T.C. Bramblett I think he was pointing out the structures styles of band names go through phases just like other aspects of music. Every genre and generation is guilty of it.
T.C. Bramblett Minus the bear is actually a play on the name "BJ and the Bear". Minus the bear = BJ
T.C. Bramblett Ah yes, you are referring to the infamous "(Verb) the (Noun)" name structure. It's become quite a joke now.
these guys are amazing and have the chillest sound. ppl don't know
I know
Without a doubt, this is the best music video ever!!!
great voices, the video is very funny, I could not stop looking at it! Congratulations!
No clue how this ties in to anything, but it's pretty awesome.
I hope they play this song tonight in Buffalo!! Favorite song EVER
Patricia Szeglowski kerfuffle? THEY BETTER
kerfuffle seems so lame this year besides franz haha
I LOVE IT!

I get down to this on a new level.
This video is incredible.

Holy sweet Mithras this rocks!!!!
