Lyrics:
Last night all black and white
When I was sleeping
I felt shadows and emptiness
Surround me
Just keep telling myself to live my life alive
Like everything else
Just keep on breathing and live
While I’m alive
I’ll live my life
(Colors and the sound)
Saw the way I would die
While I was dreaming
Cold but hearing the sound
That a heart beats
Keep on telling myself
To live my life alive
Like everything else
Just keep on breathing and live
#WhileImAlive #STRFKR #MiracleMile
yeah, it's sad, we know.
Is the man in black the old Ego of the old man?
What? only 41 likes ? Sad.

This band is completely underrated
My thoughts exactly. I was into them a few years back and went to their concert back in 2017 i think it was. Time moves so quickly. This music video has me in tears. I never watched their music videos but for my bday recently i picked up 2 of their vinyls and decided to watch some of their music videos today finally. They are so good and no one knows them, and if they do it's just Rawnald. lol. :(
100% accurate. I’ve traveled to several relatively close cities to see them. Blown away every god dammed time.
I'm about to see them on April 16th at a venue where you're pretty close to the band no matter where you are. Can't wait!! Since last September started the best year of shows ever for me as if am getting to it gave seen like 7 of my favorite bands and they are definitely one of that list@@AudreyAudio
@@thomasmunden7319 omg have the best time ever!! I want to live vicariously thru you lolol!
i got to see them live and let me tell you it was awesome!!!!
I love STRFKR so much but I am literally crying over his younger self rotating throughout the video xD
I don't know why but I laughed.. And I couldn't keep my eyes off that guy's thighs. Damns he had some nice legs! XD
Oh good, I'm not the only weirdo who couldn't stop staring at those thighs. 🍗🍗 so meaty
Dancing dude has the best legs i've ever seen
+jolene c. yeah, hot damn
He has bangable legz
Rugby 😉
I now have just learned that women are attracted to mens legs and my life is now changed since I have never been able to build my chicken legs up no matter how hard I've tried. But I'll keep trying while I'm alive.....
@@OvertheHIL524 I see what you did there😆
I was a Funeral Director/Embalmer until my hours were cut, jobs were super hard to get, and had kept working with terrible back pain from that and hiernated discs, and that P.O.T.S. stopped me in 2013 and i miss it so much! This video really is how I would look at each deceased person, each person I would respectfully treat like a family member, a person who had dreams and hope or even sickness and accidents, sudden deaths that cut their life short, but us living can still go through our happy moments like a slideshow. I would treat each person according to their wishes or just know. I would have all types of music, and on a removal back to a FH, or Coroners, I would play their music, or one persons family said please don't let my loved one be in the dark, he was always scared of the dark. I knew that Funeral Home had a rule turn out the lights, once you leave the deceased, so I took my favorite keychain flashlight that had special meaning to me and left it with him. 🔦 I turned it on, and said a prayer, they were a very sweet religious Mexican family at least 27 at the house with all their kids. I said to him now you will be in the light. Nothing to be afraid of. Then I swear I felt his spirit leave happily. 😇🕊💗
This band has been around for quite some time and I'm just now discovering them. So far every song I've listened to is good. They're quickly becoming one of my favorites.
Same thing happened to me a while back. I had known and liked Rawnold, Isabella of Castille, Golden Light and this but I finally just clicked on another song which happened to be Atlantis and that's all I took, I couldn't stop jumping from new song to new song after that. Check out Elderbrook- the same thing just happened to me with them recently. Numb, Closer, Could, and Inner Light are all great and there are far more to discover
@@thomasmunden7319 Thanks, I will def check them out.
@@thomasmunden7319lol thats where im at jumping around from song to song everything by them is good so happy and keeps me going through the day! Love you all and I hope your happy
Seriously one of the coolest music videos ever. Starfucker unique mystics are flawless. they are indestructible.
Such a scary glimpse into the future. Health declined, can't really partake in your passion anymore (dance), wife is dead, house is wrapped up (probably know you don't have much longer to live.) Like the song lyrics tell you, don't forget to live your life while you're alive. Don't look back from your lonely death bed wishing you did more. Do what you truly want, take some chances, and above everything else make sure you have as much fun as you can.
gave me a weird sensation in my stomach thinking about that.
DAAAAMMNNNN he told u lmao
Triggered.
@Anonymous1 Why would you want to be the plaything of an evil god?
@Anonymous1 You are so concerned with earning you god points to get your sky mansion you forgot about the part about making this life and this world a better place.
I dont know if this music video disturbs me or entertains me
Free expresions...i like it👍
I was thinking exactly the same.. 🤣🎶😱🎶💔🎶😭🎶🤬
yes
when he started dancing in the tub.. lol
Is that what its called lol?
@@Gaardian lol a little shimmy
This music by these guys makes my mind go on a trip.
This video is actually really sad =/
True. This video is making me anxious and sympathetic at the same time.
If you think about it, you could consider it a celebration of life. In the beginning of the video, he had been stuck in the past, but looking back on his life and his old passions, he realizes that while his time is coming, he still has time to live. This lets him change from the shaky shell of a man he was, to the man who’s living his old passions again, being dance. It’s a story of the character’s triumph, not defeat
That looks like the American Horror Story Season 1 house!
Not really...
Not really...
CHORUS
Watermelon
I lick my Lime
Watermelon
Like colours in the sand
Watermelon
yassds
I knew i wasnt the only one hearing things :D ! (y) yes!
You are the real Genius!
thanks, now i cant get it back out of my head
My favorite comment so far
people have been telling me to listen to these guys for years and now thanks tot he power of finals ive found them
fuck finals. worst way of finding out about them.
Or the best. Considering the upbeat sound of the band I think it isn't the worst medicine for the Finals Blues.
Alexander Turner I mean, if it helps sure. But there are better times ya know?
Gideon Lass Of course there are almost always better times to discover great music. But maybe the first commenter does well in his/her finals and has a good memory to go along with this music.
Think positive, mate! ;)
I thought that they were foster the people when I first heard them xD. They're still really awesome though. They deserve a lot more coverage
Always liked this song, but had no idea the video was so amusing too.
Oh look, it's me.
a man legend
I thought I recognized you.
You’re doing amazing sweetie
Loving this song. It reminds me of M83 and MGMT.
you are forgetting bsmr and tame impala too
What about Sleep Party People 😎
and Metronomy!!
Still waiting for a collab 🙌🏼😭
WASTHATABULLET dude these are exactly the songs i thought about when I listened to this
fixed it, nice looking out!
Fixed what
@@jedinutcracker I wonder if I'll ever learn the context of this comment. I guess I'm just 6 years to late.
@@IsraelRuizGodot damn, me too 😕
This man has amazing legs.
I didn't really care for the Fault in Our Stars movie, but I am glad these guys got some recognition being featured in the movie. If only in the background it was still awesome hearing them.
totally agree!
I'm kind of a hipster so I was watching TFIOS to see what all the hype was about but I heard the beginning of this song and I screamed with excitement. The movie is shit, but the music is great!! It is so rare for me to be out in public and just randomly hear a part of an indie song that I know because of my obscure tastes, so I was really excited!
+Chandler Hull I watched the movie, but I don't remember the song playing :O.
@@vinylhedgehog5574🤓☝🏻
FUUUUUUUCK!!! AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS THIS IS AWESOME!!!??? GOOOOOD, AND I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT THE SONG... I'M TALKING ABOUT THE VIDEO... IT'S FREAKING AWESOME!!! Can't stop laughing... Oh, Gosh... HAHAHAHHAHA :'))))
im right with you omg that dance move has me in tears, on my 3rd playthrough. cant wait to go to a party and do this
I go to University of Pittsburgh, saw this video in Market Central (our dining hall) and had no idea who or what I was watching. Now I'm hooked.
I go to CalU, just east of Pittsburgh. Funny I heard this on campus too.
i am you so yeahbitch
biiiiiieeeeeell lol fuck CalU.
thebensho lol fuck Spring City.
Lol I don't live there, but okay.
This song is on the tfios soundtrack...
Completely lost in when shorts guy came up from the bathtub.
Kendra Jackson ikr😂😂😂
I laughed I cried I crapped my self.
Are you a baby?
Yes.
Then get off the internet and go to daycare.
+Flaming Rain I am now a toddler.
@@Gaardian wow you came back
this song is so good why is it associated with a stupid teen romance novel
Because it's part of the soundtrack?. That's a stupid question
1:46 Harry Potter picture

Hahahajaja true history😹👍
hahahahahaha nicee!
Connor Grimes IT'S ALIIIIIIIIIVE
*Şarkı Sözleri
Last night all black and white when I was sleeping
I felt shadows of emptiness around me
Just keep telling myself to live my life
Like everything else just keep on breathing, you'll live.
Oh, oh, oh
While I'm alive
I got, I live my life
While I'm alive
The colors and the sound
While I'm alive
I got, I live my life
While I'm alive
The way I looked down while I was dreaming
Overhear in the sound that of a heartbeat
Keep on telling myself to live my life
Fall down like everything else,
Just keep on breathing, you'll live
While I'm alive
I got, I live my life
While I'm alive
The colors and the sound
While I'm alive
I got, I live my life
While I'm alive
While I'm alive, uh ooh, uh ooh
While I'm alive
While I'm alive
While I'm alive
While I'm alive
Catchy as fuck
I love how this video is 4:20 long.
Blaze it :)
四百二十燃やせ!!!! cx
flower4536
+Sami Flowers I'm fairly certain it is 4 minutes and 20 seconds.
+Magni it's 04:21
This makes me sad.
How!? This video is adorable!
Haphazardization Well I don't know about that, from what I can tell it's about an elderly man reliving the good times of his wedding, in an emotional way, which ends him up on a graveyard where his wife probably lies dead since she wasn't in this video (in her real physical form) and because the video ends with a funeral and him staring at what I think was his bride in front of a grave after which the reliving stops and he stares blankly in front of him in a graveyard.
Thebeastcalledmydong your massive run on sentence bothers me
@@habibkarim3914 Not ending your sentence with a period bothers me.
So many years later I still absolutely love it! Hope to see you in concert Portland or
Can't help but notice you subtly changed your name. ALSO this is already 8 years old. DAMN.
Imagine seeing this old dude dancing in a cemetery alone.
I'm addicted to Indie music now.... There needs to be indie bands as good as these guys, right?
foster the people
Definitely Foster The People, listen to Helena beat or Pumped up kicks.
They are a are great indie pop band!!!!!
Of monsters and men.
:)
Nathaniel Marshall Didn't think I'd see sundara karma here! love them.
I was playing this record while tripping on acid and the first minute when he first starts singing, it sounds like it is slowing down a bit. Kinda scared me cause I think I was the only one who noticed. Again at around 1:50. Just sounds like the pitch adjustment is off. Intentional or am I just insane?
Hey guys
Los acabos de ver en vivo y es de mis mejores experiencias en mi vida
I love you guys
STRFKR has to be my new favorite band. They've got it all
Fucking love them. Went to one of their concerts in SAC this Monday and it was mind fucking AWESOME!
OMG ME TUUUUU
am i invited to the party?
+Tristun 0.0
Aesire that didn't answer my question
I don't want to be an old man regretting what I could have done.
Another amazing song!
idk how i feel about this video
lol vid length is 4:20
Lol I'm blazing it while listening to this lol
I have never seen the clash of musical and cinematic masterpiece have this much passion in my entire life. Such a beautiful meaning with such a unapologetic and original cinematic theme.
That old man is Johnny Knoxville? I could swear it's him.
Imagine having a bad acid or shroom trip and this guys shows up
I heard this in the movie TFIOS and I nearly fell out of my theater chair, I literally read the soundtrack before I saw the movie but I must have completely skipped this song! I LOVE this song and I'm surprised I listened to it before it was in the movie interpretation of one of my favorite books. Starfucker is amazing.
NICE!!!
While I'm alive
I got, I live my life
While I'm alive
The colours and the sound
While I'm alive
I got, I live my life
While I'm alive
I didn't even know it was from a movie until I started reading comments, I liked the music video so much I watched it several times and fell in love with the song. Now to find this movie!
I'll just randomly start dancing like this at the most awkward times.
500 FCKING COMMENTS AND 2 MIL VIEWS. WHERE TF IS THE LOVE
Didn't know them, but I am going to Coachella so I thought I'd look them up. Glad I did.
While I'm Alive

How am i just now seeing this music video??
Why this doesn't have more likes?
Probably because people say "Why this doesn't."
cuz it's shitty Hip Star music
@@CocoaVanderbeak wot?
I don't know if i should be sad or creeped out O_O
The symbolism in this video is so strategic like my feels don't know what to do with all this sass and plotline.
I've laughed and cried and I feel like this needs to definitely be more popular.
so dank
Weird as bricks yo
AND STRFKR's "WHILE I'M ALIVE" is the first song heard in major motion picture hit, "THE FAULT IN OUR STARS" after Hazel & Gus' initial meeting at the support group. ON THE SOUND TRACK now out too! Woo Hoo STRFKR!!! Huffington Post says "'The Fault in our Stars' soundtrack might be this Generation's 'Breakfast Club'" - awesome.
the fault in our stars .__.
i hate you
pls
dave rdz so
When that movie fault of our stars comes out this song is going to shoot up into the millions of views. Good job for us finding this song before everybody else did. woohoo
Comentarios en español?
I am addicted to this band, I heard a few of their songs on Pandora and can't stop listening to them,
anyine else notice the change of dancers @2:17? o-o
so i watched 'the fault in our stars' for the first time and i knew that it was strfkr that was playing so i stopped the movie just to listening to this lmaoooo
1:30-----1:34 its amaziiing haha :D:D
Is this their first semi-normal music video? I feel like celebrating
Making sure I become this cool when I'm an old geezer. Fantastic video for a stellar song.
how does this not have 20 million views!!? This is the greatest music video I have ever seen.
This is totally my scene. Like yea lets get weird fam.
Can't wait to see these guys Saturday in Charlottesville,VA! Completely worth the long drive!
WATERMELON!!!
Could someone explain this video to me
Nope...
the old man is looking back at his wedding night and realizing how strange he danced
the young man is him well young and hes like looking back on his younger self and wife,but its not real and I assume she was dead since he was in a graveyard
:)
Reliving his life on his death bed and those are his friends at his funeral
I remember seeing this at 1000 views stumbled across it today so proud word got out
Probably 100 of those are mine
This is some extradimensional chillfunk
The song is 4:20 minutes long (he-he-he.) Coincidence? I think not. BLAZE UP AND ENJOY PEOPLE.
The song is catchy. but. ummm o_o
This video is awesome but weird
i love the fact that the run time of this video is 4:20 XD
Really love the idea behind this song. The video is outstanding! Loved the show in Boise last night. Thanks to one of the stage mgrs "j" for showing us around!
how can a song be so sad and so happy at the same time?
Firstly I didn't pay much attention to the video and I didn't understand it well. I thought that this young man is harrassing the grandpa everywhere .. :D :D :D
Part of me thinks this video is about death and mortality and shit but I also think it may just be the result of drugs. Could be either one, this is Starfucker we're talking about.
Such few comments for such an awesome song, video and band. I am disappointed in my fellow humans for not liking this more. Keep it up STRFKR!!!
I swear when the group dance goes off towards the end that chick with the white blouse that gave him just totally throws everything off. I mean God damn she was terrible.
Just saw them live last night, i'm so happy they played this one, one of the best performances i've ever seen!
Went to the show at Del Mar after the races and wow I was blown away. These guys are so much fun. Super underrated.
An interesting video concept, definitely strayed from their earlier music videos in terms of conceptuality.
Using there NIN tone in the intro.
1:34 actual footage of my depression while I'm trying to peacefully enjoy my life
im so stinking talented i have to put on female musixians or people would vote for me. so... i have to turn this badass song off. kudos on sounding like a woman. iv never been so happy to beaten up by a woman
Dude in the half-tux must have had a blast filming this video.
THE FAULT IN OUR STARS
i love the vídeo😂. Inspiring 😁
The Fault In Our Stars ✨
I still don't get the twerking.
Is that why grandpa's sad?
If you think that there is twerking in this video, then you do not know what twerking is.
How much does it blow knowing how much more popular and rich you'd be without the "fuck" in your name?
Also, why did Ryan leave the band?
great music btw
