This mouse is an amazing actor, just look at his wonderful timing with the song at 1:33. He's also very cute. He deserves an award and should start doing more stuff
'The humble wood mouse; if it survives it will be because of a remarkable skill to adapt to almost any new environment on its way to the future. And the future indeed looks bright. '
Listened to this multiple times and only just realised when the mouse is struggling on the branch you can here the gunshots that killed the men I was so focused on the mouse I missed it the other times I heard this song x
I don't know why I can't seem to ever get sick of alt-j. I love it so much. When I first happened upon them, years back, my friends were ready to kill me cause I would not stop.

@@spacedout2474 I would like to think so lol. I was in...seventh grade when I posted that? I've now figured out how to make a comedic point without the excess of capital letters, but none the less I think this comment is a good homage to simpler times.
This is one of those music videos I want to see it as a full movie and I think it would be great... probably would flop at cinemas but be a cult hit among many... Something with basic premise - dude with shady past gets in love, his shady past comes to bite him, one last job to set things stright, some twist or cross-over, massive shoot out and ambiguous last scene with shot into the distance... and along all that in parallel there is narration about wood mouse
And I thought it was weird that they were just following a mouse around as a music video and then they just had to make it even weirder.... man I love Alt-J

До чего ж хороший короткометражный фильм. Спасибо большое) Сама музыка невероятно интересная. Но сюжет клипа ещё круче - необычно, очень красиво и тонко. Я почувствовала себя мышью в огромном диком лесу! А потом эта замечательная сцена, которая нам рассказывает об опасностях жизни) Чудесный киноклип.

This is a reference to a real event written about by Truman Capote. - a couple of 'two-bit thieves' in a rural Kansas town kill a well known family in the town and cause chaos - resulting in a manhunt. This was written about by the journalist and people believed it to be so fictitious that it couldn't possibly be true. It spurred a new genre of novels called 'Nonfiction Novel'. which he defined as "a narrative form that employed all the techniques of fictional art, but was nevertheless immaculately factual". I guess the video plays on that form - the events of mouse (however unbelievable) both are plausible and reflect the events of the atrocity. But it also goes far to comment of the fallacy of the cruciality of humanitarian outcry and emotion in the face of pure survival. 'If it survives it will be because of a remarkable skill to adapt to almost any new environment on it's way to the future.'
I saw alt-J live at firefly this year; when they played this song and got to the drop with the keyboard solo, I couldn't stop myself from moshing. Sadly, nobody else joined me. But man it felt good.
1:49 u can hear the gunshots that's why the mouse slips. yes i watched it a few hundred times.. nothing extreme.. best video clip i ve seen in a long time. see u in lolapalloza
I was listening to the Song Exploder podcast where Alt-J was explaining how they wrote and recorded this song. They said they were inspired by watching a lot of American television, and the lyrics are about a murder at a pool party, where the protagonist dives in the water, and when he comes up, there's a dead body in the pool with him. Listening to this video with head phones, I can easily hear the diving board and the splash at around 1:18 but when I listen to this song on the radio, I can't hear it; so I'm not sure if it's in the radio version. Another bit of info from that podcast: they originally just had synths in the songs, but decided to use real horns as well, and they sound great in the chorus.
Is it just me, or could Iggy Pop's voice, in this increasingly implausible existence, somehow be the perfect candidate for an American equivalent to that of Sir David Attenborough's- should he one day of course venture into nature documentary narration? Seriously. I want to watch an hour long feature sans dead bodies.
Wow, the cinematography really gets you rooting for the mouse as a protagonist. The branch and the gun shots at 1:32 give a very tense sense of anticipation, which then pays off with the scene of bodies. I really hope we will get to see the wood mouse again. I'm also wanting to know more about the situation concerning the couple and the old man. Does this tie into the alternate Left Hand video? Could there be some sort of connection to Hunger of the Pine? Was that the daughter in Breezeblocks? All these questions leave you wanting more! How profound, another Alt J masterpiece!
Botar Akutabi Stop reminding me of my english lessons... plz fuck off, u have given me flashback. Flashbacks are used by the writer... FUCK ARGGHH Edit:This is a joke, srsly tho it annoys me when people do paragraphs about songs and then they start using bs english language techniques
So either they are a demented serial killing couple or this is the end of an action movie where the hero has saved his significant other from the villains.
After all these years of listening to and enjoying this song I finally go to the description to look at the narration credits and let me tell you, seeing "Voiceover by Iggy Pop" slapped me outta nowhere and into another fuckin dimension
how did you find a mouse actor?
ubilembu tuna mouse casting
ubilembu tuna it's stuart little duh
asking the real question here
Tom&Jerry try outs
I need its IMDB profile
-cool song, whats the name of the band?
-Alt-j
-what genres do they play?

HAHAHAHA so relatable

Miles Turner Yup, lets not forget Radiohead
Nayan Andaluz i know right?

yes, yes it does.
Well I have no mental stability so....

hahaha
Lmao samesies
This mouse is an amazing actor, just look at his wonderful timing with the song at 1:33. He's also very cute. He deserves an award and should start doing more stuff
Alt J are officially the best modern band on the planet in my opinion!!!
Oh what a nice homage to nature documentaries- Oh, was not expecting that
Alt-J it is for ya!
Dead people are funny lol
what too soon?
_In Cold Blood_ is going to be amazing in concert.
Going to see *Alt J* in August.

hjahahahaha me too xD

Listened to this multiple times and only just realised when the mouse is struggling on the branch you can here the gunshots that killed the men I was so focused on the mouse I missed it the other times I heard this song x
Just makes me love alt j even more because of details like this
Am I the only one who thinks the voice in the beginning is super relaxing and soothing. I don't know it just makes me so calm.
alt-J doesn't just make music. they make art.
music is art
Sooo...
"Alt-J doesn't make art. They make art"?
Tragic
well, music is classified as art so they actually do both
May I refer you to a dictionary?
LISTENING TO ALT-J IS TRULY AN EXPERIENCE
I don't know why I can't seem to ever get sick of alt-j. I love it so much.
When I first happened upon them, years back, my friends were ready to kill me cause I would not stop.
😂😂
AHHHAHAH I completely relate to that
i can watch an hour of video just following this mouse around. that's how invested i am with this little guy
Nothing bad happens to the mouse, this is therefore, a good video!
Rapps Ho I was trying to search desperately for this comment before anything happened in the video 😂
its future is bright
:cv+
Ok good. I was extremely paranoid something bad would happen to it :c

Me: You're doing amazing sweetie
Me: You're being delusional, sweetie.
How's that amazing?

its a meme you dumbass lol
This must be the best music video of all time! The cinematography was phenomenal and the lead actor wasn't cheesy at all!

Kinda cringe bro.
Bob, not cool. Not cool bobby.
Isn't it binary code for the letter S? I tried searching it up yesterday and that is what I had found
please shut up
Anyone who says some string of 0s and 1s is "computer code" for something without specifying the encoding has no idea what they are talking about.

Yea defiantly more No country for old men. I mean that would have to be some kind of inspiration for this

"They are only active during the dark, but yet are sometimes out during the day time"
We can relate
This video seriously has everything, and yet leaves you with more questions than it answers
Video is amazingly beautifull!
Dead bodies withs guns around pick ups in a desert : this is totally from "No Country For Old Men", Joel and Ethan Cohen...
why ?
i was so scared for the mouse for the whole video
Fully expected the music just to stop as the mouse just gets crushed
Wouldn’t put it past them, they dark like that
Omg me too, snake's on the beginning faults.
tha mouse is fine, he's gona murder the two dudes and run away with da money,
Mouse is gansgsta, fuck bitches get money.
These guys are so underrated.... They deserve much more likes and subscribers.

sorry but they are big.. not underrated
Lol they're one of the biggest alternative bands around, hardly underrated.

01110011
Crying zeros and I'm hearing 111s
Lifeless back slaps the surface of the pool
Pool, killer, killer, pool, pool, killer
Kiss me
[Chorus]
Mr Caspian's killer told me so
(Lalalala-la-la)
Heard it down on the radio
(Lalalala-lalala)
My pool, summer, summer, pool, summer vibes killed
In cold blood
[Outro]
Lalalala-la-la
(In cold blood, in cold blood)
Lalalala-la-la
Lalalala-la-la
(In cold blood)
Lalalala-la-la
(Caspian's killer told me so)
Lalalala-la-la
Lalalala-la-la
(Caspian's killer told me so)
Lalalala-la-la
Lalalala-la-la
Lalalala-la-la
In cold blood
תודה רבה!
Thanks for spelling out the lyrics...
There is only one word to define this song ... perfect
This is a reference to a real event written about by Truman Capote. - a couple of 'two-bit thieves' in a rural Kansas town kill a well known family in the town and cause chaos - resulting in a manhunt. This was written about by the journalist and people believed it to be so fictitious that it couldn't possibly be true. It spurred a new genre of novels called 'Nonfiction Novel'. which he defined as "a narrative form that employed all the techniques of fictional art, but was nevertheless immaculately factual".
I guess the video plays on that form - the events of mouse (however unbelievable) both are plausible and reflect the events of the atrocity. But it also goes far to comment of the fallacy of the cruciality of humanitarian outcry and emotion in the face of pure survival.
'If it survives it will be because of a remarkable skill to adapt to almost any new environment on it's way to the future.'
Dylan Rowe very well written. Thank you.
Are you referring to 'In Cold Blood'?
Oh wow - I just heard the lyric 'in cold blood' at the end - crazy. It was the Clutter Clan that died.
Wow. Thanks for this. Idk what else to say.
i just started that book this morning :) its what reminded me of this song
I found this song after watching Ingress on Netflix, this song is on another level from what i usually listened
I saw alt-J live at firefly this year; when they played this song and got to the drop with the keyboard solo, I couldn't stop myself from moshing. Sadly, nobody else joined me. But man it felt good.
Alt-J best band..
1:49 I just realized those bangs in the background were the gun shots o-o
After reading this and looking back, imagine my high pitched voice 'oh yeeaah!'
I'M A CHANGED GIRL. THIS WAS INCREDIBLE
A movie should be born from this. Just imagine, a script wrote around a song and music video.
Bender be like "01110011.... That is so deep man !!"
stewart little is an amazing actor
*sees mouse* ha ok nature documentary
*sees dead bodies* ah, makes sense
Ratatouille x Final Destination
Armaan Handa best comment
That's hysterical..
🎯
Listening to alt-j is like listening to a band that has yet to find its sound, but everything they try is really really awesome
If the mouse would have died, I would've thrown my phone out my window.
Same
Totally worth it.
Same
1:49 u can hear the gunshots that's why the mouse slips. yes i watched it a few hundred times.. nothing extreme.. best video clip i ve seen in a long time. see u in lolapalloza
NEO GEO you shouldve noticed that the forst time through...
LMAOOOO i thought it was thunder wtf was i thinking
"yes i watched it a few hundred times." "within 1 minute after these delicious mushrooms i had " director´s cut ;)
Everyone heard it, and it took you a few hundred times, wow you're such a smartass
that's insane it seems so loud and obvious now but i had completely not noticed it thanks man! :)
обожаю эту группу и их творчество.Просто что-то невообразимо крутое
There's no better way to star my day than whit Alt-J :)
This mouse deserves an Oscar. Had a small panic attack when it nearly dropped from the branch.
this mouse has a a particular set of skills, skills that he acquired over a very long career
I HAVE NEVER CLICKED ON A UA-cam NOTIFICATION SO FASTT SNNSNSNDJSJSJ
I was listening to the Song Exploder podcast where Alt-J was explaining how they wrote and recorded this song. They said they were inspired by watching a lot of American television, and the lyrics are about a murder at a pool party, where the protagonist dives in the water, and when he comes up, there's a dead body in the pool with him. Listening to this video with head phones, I can easily hear the diving board and the splash at around 1:18 but when I listen to this song on the radio, I can't hear it; so I'm not sure if it's in the radio version.
Another bit of info from that podcast: they originally just had synths in the songs, but decided to use real horns as well, and they sound great in the chorus.
"And the future indeed looks bright."
GREATEST VIDEO OF ALL TIME!!!
Change my mind...
Is it just me, or could Iggy Pop's voice, in this increasingly implausible existence, somehow be the perfect candidate for an American equivalent to that of Sir David Attenborough's- should he one day of course venture into nature documentary narration? Seriously. I want to watch an hour long feature sans dead bodies.
No Country For Old Mice
Dude, this is gold
What a reply. Hat off to you Good Sir.
all i think when i watch this lol i’m glad you do too
Reminds me of the beginning of "No country for old men."
Tralalala00 same.
"reminds" is putting it softly
INGRESS !!!
Pure and utter goosebumps. They are so insanely good.
Come from Ingress anime. This song is so GOOD.
Wow, the cinematography really gets you rooting for the mouse as a protagonist. The branch and the gun shots at 1:32 give a very tense sense of anticipation, which then pays off with the scene of bodies. I really hope we will get to see the wood mouse again. I'm also wanting to know more about the situation concerning the couple and the old man. Does this tie into the alternate Left Hand video? Could there be some sort of connection to Hunger of the Pine? Was that the daughter in Breezeblocks? All these questions leave you wanting more! How profound, another Alt J masterpiece!
Wow
i don't think any of the characters in breezblocks represented a daughter...i think it was wife and mistress
Botar Akutabi Stop reminding me of my english lessons... plz fuck off, u have given me flashback. Flashbacks are used by the writer... FUCK ARGGHH
Edit:This is a joke, srsly tho it annoys me when people do paragraphs about songs and then they start using bs english language techniques
How do they always make everything perfect
So either they are a demented serial killing couple or this is the end of an action movie where the hero has saved his significant other from the villains.
My first thought was the aftermath of a “Fast and Furious” movie
After all these years of listening to and enjoying this song I finally go to the description to look at the narration credits and let me tell you, seeing "Voiceover by Iggy Pop" slapped me outta nowhere and into another fuckin dimension
This has been giving me an 'ear worm' for weeks. Finally tracked it down. Love it.
Got the refrain on my alarm clock. And 3:10 is exactly how i feel every morning when i have to get up
Ah🤣
man, i really want that mouse. it's so cold blooded.
The mouse is the biggest badass of them all
that mouse is the newest big actor. gonna be in all the films soon. but remember, ladies and gents: you saw him here first.
YES..,,,,,I HAVE SEEN HIM H E R E
the Vibes.... they’re immaculate
Gotta admit. Watched the video many times. One of the best screenplay and plot here
