A new shins song is equivalent to a new GoT episode for me.
Parul Gusain it's not really that new lol I mean yes the music video is but the album has been out for months
Same with the GOT books, they've been out for... oooh.
TBH Reviews Of course I know I have the whole album..I actually meant their video. :)
Parul Gusain ya I get you :) it’s a good album in my opinion
Nope. GoT is a bogus profit mill. Yes, I one of thos "assholes" who has read the books.
im a simple man, I see the shins, I click like.
The Shins are the most amazing band. I wish everbody could understand just how talented this band really is. Love the new Album !
This is easily one of the most creative music videos I've seen. Simple, but really freaking awesome
You should watch Awakening by Switchfoot, it's similar in style
look up OK Go - Last Leaf they used toasted bread
I will do that! Thank you for the suggestion
Just checked Awakening out, I didn't realize I knew that song! Definitely in the same style as this video.
OK Go's video was wild. That's absolutely amazing.
All their albums are amazing. Absolute insane how they managed to make FIVE masterpieces, as far as i’m concerned.
It's official, this is my new favorite band. Congratulations.
Was the best night of my life, August 22nd 2017, I get emotional just thinking about how wonderful they were live
Thankyou so much for existing, best band ever
I saw them in September and same thing. the night was electric- so perfect
Lyrics here!
"Half A Million"
I make myself a promise
Then break it every night
I'm feeling loose and life don't make no sense
I use my brains to build a fence
'Round the claim I stake
I take the drugs but the drugs won't take
I took a pledge to grow up
Then drank enough to make me throw up
On all my dearly disappointed friends
I'm just too lazy to make amends
With you anyway
That's why the pattern still remains
There's half a million things that I'm supposed to be
A shelter in the nighttime
A punk running free
And if it gets too deep
I reach for my guitar
And if I try hard
I find something I can really drop into
And everything that was is just a thing that I can sing
Everything is something next to nothing
As crazy as it seems, you give it up and you are free
Another candle to blow out
New set of dark thoughts to shut out
And everybody's got their remedies
But nothing works like chemistry
So raise a toast
No more sipping from the fire hose
There's half a million things that I'm supposed to be
A shelter in the nighttime
A punk running free
And if it gets too deep
I reach for my guitar
And if I try hard
I find something I can really drop into
And everything that was is just a thing that I can sing
Everything is something next to nothing
As crazy as it seems, you give it up and you are free
There's half a million things that you're supposed to be
A virgin in the moonlight
A freak on the scene
And if it gets too deep
You reach for your guitar
And if you try hard
There's half a million things that I'm supposed to be
A shelter in the nighttime
A punk running free
And if it gets too deep
I reach for my guitar
And if I try hard
There's half a million things that I'm supposed to be
A shelter in the nighttime
A punk running free
And if it gets too deep
I reach for my guitar
And if I try hard
The changing checkers pieces is so impressive, cant imagine the amount of work/attention to detail this took!
Wow - just wow. What dedication to execute such a brilliant idea. Hats off guys.
Theres half a millions things that I'm supposed to be -
>A shelter in the nighttime
>A punk running free
And if it gets too deep
I reach for my guitar
And if I try hard
I find something I can really drop into, and everything that was is just a thing that I can sing.
Everything is something next to nothing.
As crazy as it seems, you give it up, and you are free.
Here before the half a million views
Sadly that’s everyone
@@therecipegod1766 :(
@@fowden9686 they deserve a lot more recognition.
God, I just fucking love these guys, okay.
The stop motion..so smooth..
Mi banda favorita y mi tema favorito de este disco. Saludos desde Argentina. :)
Such an underrated band.
Underrated?? I saw them sell out an amphitheater show a couple months ago! Not to mention they're a Grammy-nominated band. We must have different definitions of underrated I guess ha
I didn't know that. maybe they aren't underrated in that sense. but this bands genius is not always recognized, and that's where I personally think they are underrated.
Look Behind You I suppose within the world of mainstream music they're underrated. They're quite famous and they tend to get positive reviews, but they're no where near as famous as artists like Beyoncé or Taylor Swift. Fuck the music industry lol
I have to say... that i agree completely with that statement. Thats kind of what I meant, I just couldnt articulate it
I agree, they are way less popular than they should be.
WHERE HAS THIS BAND BEEN ALL MY LIFE?!
the shins, you never disappoint me.
This is AMAZING! Love that all the band members are in this!
Yeah! New Shins music video
This is going to be one of those music videos that never gets old.
Reminds me of the Modes Mouse Float On video.
This album has been a slow burn. Now, almost a year later, I have been able to appreciate how fine an album this is.
Mercer managed to blend the more refined port of morrow sound with the busy, grungy sound of the first two albums quite successfully.
Realy cool and creative. Lovely 👌
This is so goddamn creative what the fuck
Whew. The hard work put into this video is amazing. Amazing song as always. Man, I love The Shins.
So, where can I buy these stickers????!!!
this deserves more views
Who is here???

Amazing song, amazing video
Amazing. Love the Shins!!!
They deserve everything, everything. Cool down to earth guys playing awesome songs, release the doves!!!!!
The creativity of this music video is on par with take on me
Great song but what a waste of The Shins stickers. Wish I had one of those for my binder.
NEW MUSIC YESS
I just realised that at 1:22 there's half a million candles. Also if all this was really done in stop motion, then this is the greatest music video ever made.
I've listened to this song on loop for about five hours. It's safe to say this is my new favorite song.
Always the bests!
They really go above and beyond...
SUCH an awesome video... such a creative group. Cheers!
That was great!! Been a fan for a decade!
That's just so beautiful. The music, the lyrics and the video
Modern art
Each time i watch it, i get happier
I expected minimum two million views... This song deserves more than just 200 thousand !
I always get slight Beatles vibes from The Shins
I love the creativity of this video!
Can't wait to see you guys in Phoenix. Hopefully my first concert will be very memorable.
Every new song they send becomes my favorite one
Loves from Istanbul . Wish that see you here♥️
This is what I've been waiting for.

So many people thinking this song is new just because the music video is new. This song has been out for months.
I bought this album late in 2019 after a bad divorce and let it live in my truck's cd player. It has a place deep In my heart.
Excelent!
