Good Lord, I remember when this was broadcast first time, Still love this song to this day. And still here in 2022, always look out from time to time to listen to this fantastic band who somehow always chill me out.
I love how Henry Rollins can feature Death Cab one one show and Blood Brothers the next. He knows good music, and knows good music doesn't discriminate.
It was one hundred degrees as we sat beneath a willow tree Whose tears didn't care they just hung in the air And refused to fall, to fall I knew I'd made a horrible call And now the state line felt like the Berlin wall And there was no doubt about which side I was on 'Cause I built you a home in my heart With rotten wood that decayed from the start 'Cause you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along No, you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along I braved treacherous streets And kids strung out on homemade speed And we shared a bed in which I could not sleep at all 'Cause at night, the sun in retreat Made the skyline look like crooked teeth In the mouth of a man who was devouring us both You're so cute when you're slurring your speech But they're closing the bar And they want us to leave And you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along No, you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along I'm the war of head versus heart And it's always this way My head is weak, my heart always speaks Before I know what it will say And you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along No, you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along And you can't find nothing at all If there was nothing there all along There were churches, theme parks and malls There was nothing there all along
I don't know much about death cab for cutie except that they make awesome music, and they have another band called the postal service...I luv that band too!! I luv how their music is so poetic and it's not just stupid stuff about supposed "love" or dancing or anything like the famous ppl do...and I luv how they named this song after only one line in the whole song!! lol this song can get stuck in your head rlly easily, but it's not altogether unpleasent! lol
Ive been waiting close to a year to listen to this video! Didn't know who the hell sang it! Thank you Disasianluvsangie! Thank you for showing me an awesome band!
Every day is the best day of my life...and if is not a good there must be something i can do to make that day great! just decide what you are going to do today for make it a good day...don`t way till tomorrow
Yes! Gosh, I recently saw them in concert, and when they played Crooked Teeth I was freaking out. FOREVER LOVELOVELOVE. And, uh, guys, can we not compare DCFC to other bands? You can't expect people to respect you when you start flaming on other groups.
I know that for acoustics he has two J45s (one in natural and one in sunburst) but i still can't identify this model. It seems to be a gibson, i caught a glimspe of the headstock and i think i saw a vintage style gibson decal. However I'm not sure how many of such vintage? GA/GC/OM type guitars they make, seems kind of limited. Ben fits it with an M1 in his later shows but he seems to be using an L.R. baggs element pickup so I'm guessing gibson
I know this is a mega weird thing to notice, but you can tell he has lost a bit of weight recently. Between his work here and in Soul Meets Body till now with his live stuff, he has lost quite a bit it looks like haha! Good for him :)
I think it does have a meaning, just not sure if Death Cab and/or the band from the Beatles film agrees with it. It could mean that they are heartbreakers - a metaphorical death cab for girls (cuties). Just speculating.
@BornAgainBabyJesus Me either,and even if the artists did use teleprompters, would you rather them mess up the lyrics or glance at a screen you can't even see.
@iobserveutube newer versions of autotune can be run live and can not be heard. The autotune you're refering to is obsolete and is only used as a vocal effect. Not saying he used autotune here, just saying you wouldn't know if he did.
@Swiftlygothedays thats a bad analysis. the hits are the songs that were the best on the album, otherwise they wouldn't be hits. a lot of "hidden gems" just arent that big of hits because the radio isnt allowed to play songs with a certain pattern, its hard to explain.
@timin770 nice gag. but since you mention it, i dont see whats the problem. i've seen videos on youtube where people complain about that. david bowie does it. no biggie. (btw i DO know you were joking, but just thought i'd share)
I am a great fan of Ben, DCFC, The Postal Service and stuff, but I still don't get that hatred towards Owl CIty / Adam Young. That dude is also talented, maybe not quite as Ben, but he still makes good, easy, optimistic music that I like listening to.
Got in a good nose scratch at 2:11.
Solid.
So amazing these guys are still around. You will be missed Chris Walla but dang it you guys made some of the best music.
Saw them in concert last Thursday!!! Finally! Only Ben though.
These lyrics are absolutely wonderful.
Good Lord, I remember when this was broadcast first time, Still love this song to this day. And still here in 2022, always look out from time to time to listen to this fantastic band who somehow always chill me out.
Crooked Teeth, My favorite Death Cab song, on my favorite Death Cab Album, Plans! Seeing these guys tomorrow at the Chicago Theater,..can't wait!
I love how Henry Rollins can feature Death Cab one one show and Blood Brothers the next. He knows good music, and knows good music doesn't discriminate.
I love that they still sound amazing live.
Whenever I watch 500 Days of Summer I think of DCFC
I love this because he is just as good live if not better live than recorded he is just a genious. Pure amazing.
This is SUCH a brillant song.
trying to find a bad "ben song", but I just realized he is truely a lyrical mastermind... Amazing, Again
I Will Possess Your Heart is probably one of his worst (too much of a "Nice Guy" feel to it)
@@BeauBrakman that bassline though.
what a sweet voice
everything about this video is just beautiful
one of my favorite songs
Damn, I could watch this forever.
It was one hundred degrees as we sat beneath a willow tree
Whose tears didn't care they just hung in the air
And refused to fall, to fall
I knew I'd made a horrible call
And now the state line felt like the Berlin wall
And there was no doubt about which side I was on
'Cause I built you a home in my heart
With rotten wood that decayed from the start
'Cause you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
No, you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
I braved treacherous streets
And kids strung out on homemade speed
And we shared a bed in which I could not sleep at all
'Cause at night, the sun in retreat
Made the skyline look like crooked teeth
In the mouth of a man who was devouring us both
You're so cute when you're slurring your speech
But they're closing the bar
And they want us to leave
And you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
No, you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
I'm the war of head versus heart
And it's always this way
My head is weak, my heart always speaks
Before I know what it will say
And you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
No, you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
And you can't find nothing at all
If there was nothing there all along
There were churches, theme parks and malls
There was nothing there all along
I could listen to this everyday of my life
everything about this song and performance is genius.
Amazing lyrics
One of my favorite songs.
this song is so awsome
I don't know much about death cab for cutie except that they make awesome music, and they have another band called the postal service...I luv that band too!! I luv how their music is so poetic and it's not just stupid stuff about supposed "love" or dancing or anything like the famous ppl do...and I luv how they named this song after only one line in the whole song!! lol this song can get stuck in your head rlly easily, but it's not altogether unpleasent! lol
Love that song, love them!
I love it. Thanks for sharing!
Absolutely amazing live
love this song!
Ive been waiting close to a year to listen to this video! Didn't know who the hell sang it! Thank you Disasianluvsangie! Thank you for showing me an awesome band!
beautiful
LOVE IT.
wooo!!! we are learning this song on guitar in music class!!
I'm giving you a trillion stars cause this sez what we instinctively knew all along while we went along with it like we didn't know.... You know?
He’s got a good bounce going
@RyomaFuji I looked it up, and found a performance tab. Thanks man..
Ya I think you're right about that, That should be Chris's archtop but i'm currently trying to look for the flat top acoustic ben is using here.
thats bomb .
yeah i was looking for the music video for that too and it's not on hear and it's really annoying that i can't find it
The part where he says you can't find nothing at all if there was nothing there all along, reminds me of the movie 'a beautiful mind'.
I like it pretty much
Every day is the best day of my life...and if is not a good there must be something i can do to make that day great!
just decide what you are going to do today for make it a good day...don`t way till tomorrow
Excelente banda !
guy sounds great live. and my friends get on to me when i bob my head while playing like this guy was doing. me and him are just going with the rythem
GOD he is so talented
Death Cab + Rollins....Can't go wrong.
Death Cab For Cutie is forever great.
:)
for the win
You can hear him when he plays his harmonizing riff at 2:34, just put in some headphones.
epic....new album will be resplendent
This video made me like Death Cab For Cutie.
i wish i had a music class that taught this song, i just got good old fashon tabs!
Sweet acoustic version! It's sweet, clean, and simple. : )
~ Jethro.
Beat it, Jethro.
Chris walla is also very much the man.
Actually, I went to see them at the hollywood bowl a little over a month ago and Ben lost a TON of weight.
He looks quite good.
(:
i wanna go to your school haha good taste
it's from a line from a movie about the beatles i believe
possibly the best indie band ever?
speechless (:
deathcab FTW!!!
sick
Yes! Gosh, I recently saw them in concert, and when they played Crooked Teeth I was freaking out. FOREVER LOVELOVELOVE.
And, uh, guys, can we not compare DCFC to other bands? You can't expect people to respect you when you start flaming on other groups.
I know that for acoustics he has two J45s (one in natural and one in sunburst) but i still can't identify this model. It seems to be a gibson, i caught a glimspe of the headstock and i think i saw a vintage style gibson decal. However I'm not sure how many of such vintage? GA/GC/OM type guitars they make, seems kind of limited. Ben fits it with an M1 in his later shows but he seems to be using an L.R. baggs element pickup so I'm guessing gibson
Those mics look like Lawsons...nice!
holy manatee finally a singer who doesnt sound like a dying turtle
@SuperBassist96 Well... all except for "We Looked Like Giants"... But it's so awesome, we'll let it slide ;)
"no you can't find nothing at all, if there was nothing there all along".
does anyone know what model is Ben's guitar
@iobserveutube
Well, I never really considered their music to be similar in any way. But I enjoy your comment.
Harmonizing buddy
@VCUmsk you can a little bit around 2:30
I know this is a mega weird thing to notice, but you can tell he has lost a bit of weight recently. Between his work here and in Soul Meets Body till now with his live stuff, he has lost quite a bit it looks like haha! Good for him :)

DCFC=bliss
@BornAgainBabyJesus Me either,and even if the artists did use teleprompters, would you rather them mess up the lyrics or glance at a screen you can't even see.
Does anyone know how Ben plays that pre chorus section in chords. I've watched his fingers over and over and cant get it.....
The fuck? I head it the whole time
la madre q los pario lo buenos q son
me too but i needz a better camera.
@iobserveutube newer versions of autotune can be run live and can not be heard. The autotune you're refering to is obsolete and is only used as a vocal effect. Not saying he used autotune here, just saying you wouldn't know if he did.
chris walla :DD
I love Ben. I'm overweight like about what he is in this video, I could never do that.
@TatumEatsU i can hear him :]
@hippiegirlsmile Yupperz! xP
he's reading the lyrics from a teleprompter. you can see the screen reflected in his glasses. ha, made ya look lol
@snoobeagle why you hatin on Death Cab?
I didn't say they weren't. I actually like some of their songs. I just didn't know what the guy looked like, and he did not look like what I expected.
lol@ 2:30 it zooms into the lead/backup guitarist like hes gonna play something sick but then ha just fails and cameraman moves on.
What a great song.
fckin' amazing.. and yup he's more skinny now.. good for him..
Henry Rollins fucking rocks!!!! Yeah!!!
@Musicaltyler when will people learn that preferences in music are just that, PREFERENCES. its all relative to the individual, pure speculation
@VCUmsk
i can, am i crazy? hes playing the bass line
@scootsmacgee panic isnt really a bad band at all. im not of a fan of theirs but they still have talent
Does anyone know how Ben plays that bridge section in chords. I've been trying like crazy but can't get it right????
where can I find the chords if anyone might know?
@Swiftlygothedays thats a bad analysis. the hits are the songs that were the best on the album, otherwise they wouldn't be hits. a lot of "hidden gems" just arent that big of hits because the radio isnt allowed to play songs with a certain pattern, its hard to explain.
@Musicaltyler honestly, no idea man. blame it on the mary
HI KATHERYN
@timin770 nice gag. but since you mention it, i dont see whats the problem. i've seen videos on youtube where people complain about that. david bowie does it. no biggie. (btw i DO know you were joking, but just thought i'd share)

you'd think henry rollins would rather punch ben in the face then have him on his show
