I made that mechanical caterpillar! Wow, that was like 20 years ago in Portland. The outside body form was dryer tubing and spray foam sprayed with olive oil. The gears and whatnot were being cranked by a few guys behind it. I loved the creative freedom I had with this. I got into props work cause it was like arts and crafts meets puzzle solving. Using creative problem solving to make something fit into the scene. This one was the height of that.
@thefreedommovment did you make it for the video or was that footage borrowed? Its very cool!!!!
I HAD YEARS, PEOPLE.. YEARS! LOOKING FOR THIS SONG! OMG ... I THINK I'M GONNA CRY, I AM SO HAPPY I FINALLY FOUND IT!, I LISTENED TO IT ONLY ONE TIME IN MY LIFE AND IT'S BECAUSE MY BROTHER HAD A DIESEL U MUSIC.. BUT I ONLY LISTENED TO IT ONE TIME! I WAS A LITTLE GIRL OMG.. THIS MELODY HAS BEEN IN MY HEAD ALL MY LIFE.. BUT I NEVER KNEW WHAT WAS IT NAME OMG OMG IM SO HAPPY NOW.
you shoulda just asked me. I could have told you what it was right away.
lol if i had known you :p
Your comment is disturbing! I just spent my last 5 complete hours just to find the name of this music! And after I expressed my joyce for listening this song, I see that the first comment is yours, it's not usual to see that kind of comment! Happy for you and for me.
lol omg amazing! I am happy for us haha
+Ana Esquivel I know that feeling all too well. Some times I dream shoegazey type tunes and they stick with me for *years*. The la la la's in this song touch me every time - when I first heard it I thought "where has this song been all my life?" and get teary eyed but feel it deep in my spirit as well. A lot of Shins does this to me as well as Queen, The Beatles, The Cardigans first album Emmerdale (check it out if you love The Shins like I do)...so so many. Glad to see you found your beloved song again and music touches you the way it does :3
Of all the beautiful songs I’ve ever heard, I continue to come back to Saint Simon. Nothing else compares.
The Conservateur nothing else is love...
Nothing really holds a candle to..
@@smallestcharles😂😂❤
Full of optimism and nostalgia
mercy's eyes are blue when she places them in front of you
nothing holds a roman candle to the solemn warmth you feel inside
...theres no measuring of; nothing else is love
Nothing holds a Roman candle to this track.
😂❤
I woke up this morning with line "Mercy's eyes are blue" over and over in my head. Took the kids to the splash pad. This little girl looks up at me as her dad says "time to go Mercy"... Mercy's eyes were actually brown : )
❤️
I woke up today with "I'll try hard not to give in" going through my head and had to hear this
I can't believe this song wasn't on the radio or talked about and covered by other artists! It's a beautiful song! Well done Shins!
There is a cover, but its a totally different genre. Its a bluegrass cover. The band is called Iron Horse i think
I remember this one channel on cable TV that would showcase new upcoming bands. I remember seeing The Shins on the list, hmmm, The Shins, catchy name, let me check them out. And it was this video, this beautiful song. The list was long, there were bands like The Battles, Silversun Pickups, Die Mannequin and something told me to check out The Shins. Now every time I hear this song it takes me back to that moment, that time in my life. A nice memory.
libraryquiet Silversun Pickups 💗
I think they got their name from the Chinese symbol meaning "mind, body and spirit."
This song makes my brain float between my ears
Yes that's where the brain usually is😂❤
the beach boys of newer times.
love
darkveder100 not really. more something you would hear on sgt pepper from the beatles.
I grew up with the Beatles, and Beach Boys; these clever boys have taken that legacy and built on it. Borrowing from them of course but adding their special approach. But who hasn't? Even Mozart was "borrowing" from Bach(JC and JS) - fact.
nah, more like something you would hear on Sunflower from the Beach Boys
One of the most beautiful sounding and written songs ever.... genius
i had this song on my mp3 player when i was like 6 years old. it was my favorite song. this is the first time ive been able to find it in about 13 years, i honestly didnt think i would ever find it again. also wow 6 year old me had interesting taste for a child 😂
you was into some heavy shit as a six year.
It’s a very child friendly melody.
I've always loved this song. Nicely written, boys!
one of the best songs ever written
Im beginning to love all their songs
This song has meant a lot to me for a long time.
Mercy's Eyes are Blue...
Lucy's. Saint Lucy had her eyes gauged out and was usually painted with them in her hands
I don't know...he pretty clearly says Mercy the second time.
3:33
When she places them in front of you
I cant see the comments
Such a beautiful mystical song!
Chutes is definitely the best Shins album
Rick Astley I always say Wincing and Port Of Morrow are my favorites but I find myself listening to Chutes the most. It’s really hard to choose, though.
Agree
True,but their debut Oh inverted world was perfect too
The older I get the more I love the other albums. But if there was the one album so sum them up, it’s this one.
One time I was driving from Los Angeles to Phoenix and the butterflies were migrating through the desert. Glorious.
My favourite song by this group. I absolutely love them... play their music all the time...
I used to have this album on CD, Lost it I forgot how much I love this song.
Low key possibly the best song off Chutes Too Narrow which was easily one of the top 3 albums of the early 00s Indie scene.
Best shins song period. High key. Major scale.
Ahh, I remember always listening to this song last summer while reading the Ultimate Comics Spider-Man, good times, good times.
This song keeps me alive
The part at the end melts my heart
Wonderful 😍 I love this song
Simply beautiful. The video compliments the song's beauty in so many ways. James Mercer is truly a god when it comes to making music
this band is too good. its just not fair.
Always my favourite shins musical poem
Lyrics;
After all these implements and texts designed by intellects
So vexed to find evidently there's still so much that hides
And though the saints dub us divine in ancient fading lines
Their sentiment is just as hard to pluck from the vine
I'll try hard not to pretend
Allow myself no mock defense
As I step into the night
Since I don't have the time nor mind to figure out the nursery rhymes
That helped us out in making sense of our lives
The cruel, uneventful state of apathy releases me
I value them but I won't cry every time one's wiped out
I'll try hard not to give in
Batten down to fare the wind
Rid my head of this pretense
Allow myself no mock defense
As I step into the night
But Mercy's eyes are blue when she places them in front of you
Nothing holds a Roman candle to the solemn warmth you feel inside
There's no measuring of it as nothing else is love
I'll try hard not to give in
Batten down to fare the wind
Rid my head of this pretense
Allow myself no mock defense
As I step into the night
Mercy's eyes are blue when she places them in front of you
Nothing really holds a candle to the solemn warmth you feel inside you
✨
Very reminiscent of The Zombies! Love it
The Shins are the greatest band of all time!
"Mercy's eyes are blue when she places them in front of you" will always be one of my favorite lines from a song.
Dato curioso, este video musical fue grabado en Mexico, en la reserva El Rosario en Michoacán.
my first semester in college I used to listen to this on repeat. but that was back in 2009 before I had a YT account and I've been looking for this since. finally found it!!!! 🎉💗
One word. Fantastic!
Great chord structure , melodic beautiful . 👍👍👍
I´ve heard them and they are both great songs
i can't seem to stop listening to this:]
man, I love this song 💙
I love this song! It really is awesome! The Shins are well good!
this song reminds me of a dream I had about my mom that past away. Thanks Poly.
i got a mp3 player as a kid and i remember this being the only song i'd play as it was on repeat lol. still a great song, i guess some things dont change over the years when it comes to music taste as well
I love this song so much!!!
Haunting,Enchanting!!!
Stop searching for the perfect pop song. It is right here.
sure seems so, the beatles are my favorite band.
the shins are a very close second. love both of them
Does anyone else think this sounds like a Beatles song? Love these guys :-) Phantom Limb is great video. Also happens to be me and my GF fav song off newer album. This whole album though is awesome!
I love this band.
Beautiful movie and beautiful music
Amen! The Shins rock - end of!
Spetacular.
Great Band.
Brooo, after finding my old Sony Walkman from 2008 I have rediscovered this band. I was literally like 8 or 9 when I first listened.
I'd be worried about stepping on the butterflies, but the song rocks my socks.
great, great, great song!
Damn.... Good music. Such good tone, and lyrics. A good beat and harmony... My God, thank you Zune.
So beautiful
lovelovelove it.
Nice. What a sight to behold also.
Just lovely beautiful superb
yes, amazingness definitely ensued...best shins song and great video
LOVE these guys!
I rembembered the melody... lalaa dam la laa dam ... but forgot the tittle and the band. Oh god... I finally found this song in 2018. what a relief. thanks I love your song. Good luck from Indonesia.
i think i listened to this song about 50 times today
James Mercer never fails to create anything but wonderful tunes.
Is it just my imagination, or does James sound somewhat like early 90s Rivers Cuomo in this song?
Dalton Garrison wow I was literally thinking the same exact thing dood..did not expect to find a comment about it.
Holy shit. Me too!
This song came with the media center edition of windows xp
+judgebeanhead yea bro lol i was like best feature
this. I used to be like "All this music sucks on here" and then this song came on and I was in love.
Any chance anyone else remembers the other songs on there? Or where I can find a list of them?
This is beautiful!! I think it's my new favourite band!
Love this !!!
James looks like Kevin Spacey in Unusual Suspects
+Jakob Nipper lol unusual suspects
Well, they ARE kind of unusual, no?
Jakob Jones it’s The Usual Suspects bud.
Amused by that pop culture reference reading that in 2018
This comment didn’t age well
the shins are one of the best indie bands ever, no sunny day real estate tho. def no sunny day
I think this is one of their best songs - Kissing the lipless is also good
"allow myself no mock defense....as i step on the butterfliiiiies" haha
great song. such a hooky melody.
This reminds me of The Beatles
I wonder if they listened to them
Cameron Peterson I get that. It has slight tones of Strawberry Fields Forever about it.
cant learnham Who hasn't? lol
The shins said in a interview that the Beatles were one of their inspirations, along with other bands like the romones and Jesus and the Mary chain.
reminds me of bowie too
No butterflies were hurt during the making of this video.
Superimposed - ha!
😂🤣😀😄😅😆😎😍
Lead singer looks like Kevin Spacey.
I had "new slang" on my mp3 player but didn't know who it was. I heard Phantom limb here on youtube, and went out and bought all (?) 3 of thier albums that were availble. One of my new favorites.
Amazing video, Really great song and the group is really cool! I like them!
Butterflies are just bugs with fancy wings - love the song though I listen to it it three or four times a week
I thought my sound when out at the beginning. I like this song more and more every time I listen to it.
fantastic.
Lovely..
I totally agree =) They remind me of The Beatles a lot =p
Thank You
I'm strangely attracted to this song...
me Too

i love this song, it does sound like the beatles a little bit, not completely but it has a good group vocals like beatles had
thank you
These guys are awesome! Hold true to deep rock and roll.. on par with Simon and garfunkle and Beatles
just saw these guys live at Ommegang Brewery in Cooperstown this past Saturday, it was goddamn amazing.
R.I.P beautiful earth
