Saw these guys play with alkaline trio in Portland,OR back in 2009 and tim kasher was so drunk he could barely keep his eyes open but they were still so good that they stole the show in my opinion. I been a huge fan ever since. SOOOO underrated
Ha, I saw them as well when they toured with Alkaline Trio here in Cleveland. Ever since then, they've been one of my favorites. So unique and hard to explain how they are live to others. Something you just have to witness and appreciate on your own.
One of my good friends, whom I recently started talking to again, showed me this band while I was going through a breakup. By far I enjoy this band. Helped me get over it more
@@BLUEBEATLE001 i haven’t spoken to him in years now, i don’t even know where he lives heh. he was a very existential and “awakened” kinda of person and for me it didn’t vibe with my kind of anxiety. he was very nice though.
Just ended a FWB relationship tonight. The literal interpretation of this song is hitting me quite hard. "I wish that we had never talked, our hips said it all."
Slowly chocking on existential pain, masking it behind a harmonious melody. Do you have that courage to fight back against your grabbler overlords? History forgets the cowards so you may as well fight.
I watched the new episode of Community last Thursday and the whole time I was like "where have I seen Todd at before?" Jeez surprised it took me so long to figure it out seeing as how this is one of my favorite music videos.
Tim Kasher will always be bae. I wish I could count how many times i have heard this song, either in itself or played/sung in different ways or played/sung at least 500 times by my ex. I always loved this song, but I never knew just how much it would matter to me later.
+Satoko Tanabe I think its more about that feeling that 'you'll never know someone for the first time twice'. They will never be 'that mysterious man/woman at the end of the bar'/'that really lovely girl/boy who served me coffee' (the list goes on), once you know their name. Which is great, you build a relationship from that and its beautiful, but there will never be that same feeling of unknown 'I know nothing about this person apart from the way they move', aka them talking from the hips, not the lips. I believe this goes for music/film as well. It could be talking about the magic when you hear a song for the first time, or catch a film midway through at a friends with no idea what its called, who its by and what its about, and the more you read into it, and learn how it was created, and what the subject is, the more it will never be that piece of art you heard for the first time that moved you, rather than spoke to you (hips not lips). Im not trying to start youtube fights, just lemme know your thoughts :)
and then when you finally get to know them, even though its obvious and inevitable, you discover they're not anything other than normal, and human...and they discover that you're just normal, and human, and you wish you could take it all back, and meet them again for the first time.
Is about sex: our most refined habits are just to deceive us, while our most original drive is a gut feeling without sound, is the movement during sexual intercourse , an a sensation without the word.
Checking these out before I see them at the Alkaline Trio show in Feb. Do they ever rock anymore than this, or is this kind of their sound? Any suggestions on songs to check out by them?
^ wow, maybe it's just because I haven't been following news on American music for a while, but I would never have thought those 2 bands would tour together. I want to see this though.
Its todd from community, looks like he got roped into another school project with these cursive guys. so much for the wife and kids with those girls round him.
Pretty much the entirety of Dosmestica and The Ugly Organ albums and the Eight Teeth To Eat You With and Busrt and Bloom EPs, Dorothy At Forty, Warped The Wood Floors and After The Movies.
Saddle Creeks Signs some great Bands The Faint, Cursive, Bright eyes (ok i guess). but still i never knew they were all signed by the label until now. Awesome
I think the song has a lot to do with how we overwhelm ourselves because of our nature and up until the final scene in this video, you can see that the two main people are overwhelmed....because from our hips, we think about sex and/or love. THe end of the video is probably just what is Tim's idea of not being overwhelmed encompasses, which would be the desire for just one person.
Got tired of domestica after looping it the 200th time, but I still dig it and respect it. Gotta say I was impressed by Happy Hollow as a concept album
The first verse is about sex being good , the second is about humans talking being bad.. and it ends with sex being better and great... brilliant lyrics

Wonder Ballroom? I think I was there.
Ah the good Ole days when tim was shit faced every tour lmao
I'm seeing them live in portland tonight I'm stoked.
This song is genius on so many levels. It really hits home.
Indeed
i missed cursive so much. stumbling upon them tonight again made my whole week.

Cursive will do that ♥️
Give him a gift for it

@@crankthatrebecca12dope pfp
Such a unique and special band.
dude, Cursive NEVER dies!
one of the most under rated bands
Just ended a FWB relationship tonight. The literal interpretation of this song is hitting me quite hard. "I wish that we had never talked, our hips said it all."
RIP Ed the simp
Oh man! I forgot how much I love this song
I am going to say it!..to me still to this day, this is the best song in the world
Album of the year holds that spot. This song is a close third to the second best song in the world, The Casualty.
its 2021 and you're still right
I can't get enough of this song.
When did Cursive's sound become so mature? I love when you grow older and you find a band you loved grew with you. Like Conor Oberst, too.
Exactly this. Love Conor Oberst toob
Cursive is one of the greatest bands of all time.
💯
cursive will always be a classic, very welll under rated.
Slowly chocking on existential pain, masking it behind a harmonious melody. Do you have that courage to fight back against your grabbler overlords? History forgets the cowards so you may as well fight.
Damn....
Just discovered them through suggestions on Spotify. Fucking awesome, this band is fucking awesome.
I've never heard cursive, but always really liked The Good Life... I think I found my new favorite song!
my brother got me into this band. when i heard FROM THE HIPS i knew i would love this band
Good, nice to know there are people still in to good music
ive been listening to this song non stop for a week now :3
Really critical song. Therefore and for the melody - genious!
I can’t unsee this guy being Todd
I always thought of Todd as the "Cursive video guy:.
Cant listen without crying
"No offense."
"None taken."
:)
Are you still alive?
@@projectforce3727nah. They died
very great song!!! maybe the best of cursive...
Tim Kasher is the best musician from my time. So excited for the 2015 tour. My youth has been reborn!
Cricket Briggs Him and Sufjan Stevens
thank you for always being there for me....
Went to see them live last night at Nokia Theater and these guys are so fucking awesome live.. love you CURSIVE!!!
this is song is just plain amazing, hands down :)
wow... hadn't heard of these guys before, but this song is really cool! awesome clip too :)
good for these guys. This is a great single. Hope the rest of the albums just as good....
I watched the new episode of Community last Thursday and the whole time I was like "where have I seen Todd at before?" Jeez surprised it took me so long to figure it out seeing as how this is one of my favorite music videos.
god damn. i can't stop loving this band...
Fantastic!
i just saw them at the house of blues i was there for alkaline trio ..cursive was so good
GOING TO SEE THEM THURSDAY!
People like Tim Kasher make me proud to say I'm from Nebraska.
Tim Kasher will always be bae. I wish I could count how many times i have heard this song, either in itself or played/sung in different ways or played/sung at least 500 times by my ex. I always loved this song, but I never knew just how much it would matter to me later.
This is really splendid
love this song with all my heart
i really enjoy this.
I LIKE THIS SONG A LOT.
If the 2 guys from "Step Brothers" had a kid together that's what it would look like. The song is amazing btw.
actor is David Neher. recognized him from playing Todd in Community. (and yeah I totally had to look all that up!)
@@geluso Would you shutup tod. I mean no offense.
should do a video for "what have I done"
Honestly, its the best song off the record.
100% agree.
Cursive is comming to ROSKILDE (Denmark) this year!!!!!!
Dude Cursive is so good
The album really grew on me, give it another chance and you will love it. trust me!
After listening to this song for a while, I suddenly realized what this song is about.
enlighten me
+Omar Hernandez read the lyrics. Basically "do it like they do it on the discovery channel"
+Satoko Tanabe I think its more about that feeling that 'you'll never know someone for the first time twice'. They will never be 'that mysterious man/woman at the end of the bar'/'that really lovely girl/boy who served me coffee' (the list goes on), once you know their name. Which is great, you build a relationship from that and its beautiful, but there will never be that same feeling of unknown 'I know nothing about this person apart from the way they move', aka them talking from the hips, not the lips.
I believe this goes for music/film as well. It could be talking about the magic when you hear a song for the first time, or catch a film midway through at a friends with no idea what its called, who its by and what its about, and the more you read into it, and learn how it was created, and what the subject is, the more it will never be that piece of art you heard for the first time that moved you, rather than spoke to you (hips not lips).
Im not trying to start youtube fights, just lemme know your thoughts :)

wow where was i when this song was around?
Doesnt matter cuz im loving it
I was just watching Community and I was like omg that's the guy from the cursive video!!! lol Todd.
wow thank you youtube for recommending this video to me
brilliant.

looking forward to seeing them at the social...twice
saw them at sxsw. This song is amazing.
I remember going to brother's bar in omaha and drinking with these guys
3:17, the guy's wearing a Paddy's Irish Pub shirt!
It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia FTW!
gotta love it!
This entire song is a paradox!
Still listening to this banger in 2019, such a good an honest song love the progression and the word play.
if she hasnt heard the ugly organ, shes too young for you bro
wrong album tho
boi you look like you're like eight.
Gryff it’s cause I’m emo
I live in the hood and I listen to cursive... :-(
Ha, this is a great comment. I'm going to use this reference and no one will know what the hell I'm talking about.
this song is so so so true
the video is dope!
Checking these out before I see them at the Alkaline Trio show in Feb. Do they ever rock anymore than this, or is this kind of their sound? Any suggestions on songs to check out by them?
^ wow, maybe it's just because I haven't been following news on American music for a while, but I would never have thought those 2 bands would tour together. I want to see this though.
Just got done ranting on Facebook Live to the point that a friend called the cops and I'm really feeling this.
F' ING BRILLIANT!
Oh my god, it's Todd!
Gideon Nightingale "none taken" 😁
todd who ?
Todd Rundgren
Whoa one of the dudes was wearing a Paddys Irish Pub shirt...heck yes!
Saw them play this live its so much better live.
art is hard, and driftwood are pretty good.
1:47

i just wanna be the first to say, it's hilarious that they gave Tim a mandolin.
Easily their best track
Shoutout to the dude I met today with the tattoo of the keyboard cause god damn I’m so happy to know these guys now.
Its todd from community, looks like he got roped into another school project with these cursive guys. so much for the wife and kids with those girls round him.
goated
Love the Mandeline
Buy their album Domestica, one of the best indie albums ever made.
mmm oh hells yeah!
That weird guy... with the forehead. Lol legends get the reference
pretty sure the lead singer of this band is alex ovechkin
Tim kasher actually
I kept thinking the same thing. I know Ovi when I see Ovi.
from our hips we don’t give a shit it just feels good and that’s no sin it’s the only way to feel alive the closest thing to being born again !

Interviewer: So why should we hire you?
Me: 1:08
Fine Bros!
I did not expect to see Honor Student.. But he was popular in a flash, around the time of this recording, I guess.
@KingCarlos279 the bar in philly? they're playing on the 11th at the troc as well. should be going to that one :)
Cool.
