Andrew Bird featuring Dianogah - "Lull"

[@CailoFilms]

One of my favorite songs... Andrew Bird, may your sound spread and bring joy to the world...

[@jj88ju]

when i was 12, i was just getting into andrew bird and this video always freaked me out in the best way. i'm in my second year of college and i still think about it to this day

[@laurensadler4238]

I love his reference to Carly Simon's song You're So Vain with his lyric "and I think I'm so lame I bet I'll think this song is about me" 4:34

[@sidDkid87]

*rambling on rather self consciously* , aren't you? ; )`

[@whales]

Dianogah would be my first choice as a backing band as well. I couldn't believe this was recorded live the fist time I heard it.

[@SeanLongstreet]

Bird's videos are always so fitting for his unique music. What an inspiration he is to us all. Peace

[@thenew22]

This is one of KZbin's hidden gems

[@cyndjop]

The man is depressed. The Squid represents another life the man thinks wants. He lures it with lobsters. It all seems exciting and romantic (new life) but it turns on him just like everything else he tries to love. So the man metaphorically dies or is killed by his own self sabotage. The Squid calling his wife is the comedy/tragedy of his despair that she tried to live with but she couldn't help him so she let him go, finally. The baby squids represent pain produced by false realities.

[@abryant73]

This made me cry. Oh my god the music was beautiful, the animation was beautiful. And I can certainly connect with the song.

[@nicoletrujillo616]

acaseformitosis ... It's making me cry now

[@geraldmorain3166]

What cannot be found might be forgotten sadly

[@ptwonline]

This is one of the most strange, disturbing, and yet hauntingly beautiful things I have ever seen. The editing to put the song and the film together really make it look like they were meant for each other. Bravo all-around.

[@Vysethelegend12]

This version makes me cry, man. Watching this in a public place probably wasn't the best idea.

[@NicholasPaauwe]

The LP version never really clicked for me, the monotone and nonchalant vocals threw me off. This version however is crooned so softly & earnestly. I remember falling asleep to this on repeat while sulking after a breakup.

[@biror1135]

I cried in the end.

[@mwanakazi]

Wow, this is so uncanny, I just watched 'My octopus teacher' yesterday on Netlfix about a man who developed a friendship with an Octopus, a great story with a bittersweet ending. They should have used this song as a soundtrack!

[@twistertterb]

This is one of the best things I have ever seen and it has been an absolute companion to me over these years. I've shared this with students and friends and strangers and it never fails to stir in me some giant appreciation for music and narrative and whimsy and effort. This should be remastered in 4K if possible.

[@Takoma420]

I searched lull like the radiohead song and found this banger

[@paulmca9731]

Still as fabulous as when I first listened to it.

[@The-Aion]

Being alone it can be quite romantic like Jacques Cousteau underneath the atlantic a fantastic voyage to parts unknown going to depths where the sun's never shone and i fascinate myself when i'm alone so i go a little overboard but hang on to the hull while i'm airbrushing fantasy art on a life that's really kind of dull oh, i'm in a lull i'm all for moderation but sometimes it seems moderation itself can be a kind of extreme so i joined the congregation i joined the softball team i went in for my confirmation where incense looks like steam i start conjugating proverbs where once there were nouns this whole damn rhyme scheme's starting to get me down oh, i'm in a lull i'm in a lull being alone it can be quite romantic like jacques cousteau underneath the atlantic a fantastic voyage to parts unknown going to depths where the sun's never shone and i fascinate myself when i'm alone i'm rambling on rather self consciously while i'm stirring these condiments into my tea and i think i'm so lame i bet i think this song's about me don't i don't i don't i ? i'm in a lull

[@shannonmcintyre1284]

Who does your art?

[@xmpd123]

haunting is the perfect description for this video, and Andrew bird in general.

[@geraldmorain3166]

The way you make it sound

[@JBintheGreatBigWorld]

And he does it again! Brilliant :)

[@Fearbird]

andrew bird sure is something special.

[@doctorhobo90]

Listen for the xylophone part at 3:49. He's whistling at the same pitch for each note. I saw him in Oxford a few months ago and look forward to seeing him at Bonna!

[@LuanaBellisari]

Love the music!

[@grimshawr]

word, this shit pops into my head all the time now.

[@sophiaA182]

so beautiful

[@spoonsaresweet]

After last night I'll never be able to listen to this song the same again. Thank you Andrew Bird... -3

[@Sy340]

What a tradgedy, 9 people missed the like button. :'( I can't even look at this anymore, its unhealthy to have my heart be at risk of turnng into a dove. I almost cried when I saw this

[@gaona1983]

wonderfull!!!!!!!

[@geraldmorain3166]

And you also have many other wonderfull songs thank you

[@jfisher4]

[@cmban]

[@deadredeyes]

Beautiful.

[@citrusarcher]

The squid waving back kills me :) Awesome.

[@paulmca9731]

Beyond Fabulous

[@PantomimeMakeup]

that is one of thee most relaxing songs (even if occasionally the video verged on the frightening. :] )

[@alesyawizard]

going to see him @ Bonnaroo! Beautiful!

[@WhoJude]

[@HonoluluWhoCares]

[@Lizy3110]

[@enjoin2f]

[@MissElleHerself]

Strangest damn video I've ever seen, but the song is so beautiful.

[@daltonkunkel]

[@shuddupemily]

this song makes me want to nap. love it

[@hilarygrist]

I love this.

[@ilanasatori]

@CailoFilms Lisa Barcy. it has more info in the description. i too am fascinated

[@NeroRusttail]

3:23 DX squids actually have three hearts, still, its a beautiful video

[@ScottPenick]

Another amazing aural (re)creation by Mr. Bird...

[@franciscojavierherreraamav5270]

Andrés Bird es un músico muy talentoso y experimentado. Podemos esperar mucho de él todavía.

[@Roflcop013]

this song is absolutely beutiful and i loved its meaning and everything. i know what its saying about love and how someone can be used wrongly for love. but that doesnt mean i didnt almost hurl when i saw the ending.

[@DobbyJunior]

Wow! Very interesting.

[@sidDkid87]

*_"moderation itself is a kind of extreme"_* 🎶

[@-.a9942]

I just found this song cause I misspelled something. I was looking for what type skull a bird has and the corrector type Lull instead of skull. Nice finding though 🍁🍂

[@AnonymousFreakazoid]

Fucking beautiful. Just so fucking beautiful.

[@granjerojose]

Great

[@hulapanda]

I have a open mind a nd all, but did he just get randy with that squid?

[@rockmonst3r]

confusing depressing haunting beautiful

[@claireswailes]

@motionstudiofilms Is this Jesse?? cause i showed this to my friend Jesse and thats exactly what he said too :P personally I dont see it at all though.

[@lambdashiftakadavidheikkil2657]

I listen to this a ton when I was 13

[@jfisher4]

i don't think so. this was just recorded for the daytrotter sessions with dianogah sitting in.

[@culturekate]

PLEASE TOUR AUSTRALIA!!!

[@contactolequotidien8492]

Is t this song full on Spotify?

[@CailoFilms]

who is the amazing animator?

[@haret0n]

fab

[@giannacordone3978]

my boyfriend's surname is Lull and it's so beautifull to know that he have a pretty song with his name in somewhere

[@andrewnonnenmacher5817]

I love this sooo freakin much. The story is beautiful. It's not about bestiality, it's about being in a particular state of mind and daydreaming absurd things. At least that was my interpretation.

[@HonoluluWhoCares]

very creatvice video, the violin makes the song to me. :]

[@Illusion_369]

My octopus teacher? Love this song..

[@apocrisia]

@OJMChamberlain Oh, that hurts... I´ve suddenly realized how empty and dull my own life is... Well... off to the sea to marry a squid!

[@Stayclassy110]

No Way Same! see ya there

[@Reserve777]

Anyone know where I can find an mp3 of this song?

[@trudovi4ok]

Музыка великолепна.

[@barelybueno]

trippy music video, but it's an awesome song.

[@motionstudiofilms]

@claireswailes This isn't Jesse... But i'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks this :)

[@danielcarome9251]

Far worse places to find oneself than in a lull.

[@tamroluluromtakankav]

good luck )))

[@Penguin619]

Are they going to re-release this track? Or did they just extend the intro, for the sake of extending it?

[@Crownshorts]

But how did he die at the end?

[@greymatters333]

oh god… 😭

[@justmissj]

@spidermoy007 haha amen to that

[@Aurek22]

Someone have a instrumental version of that ?

[@chihuahuasarecute123]

Never eating squid now.

[@KingLegendary1]

this is the prologue to the kanye west gay fish adventures

[@Bobman4671]

Vid kind of made me sad. Very trippy.

[@ChristopherFreedom]

@ninethreefivesix So Be it!

[@BOS7827]

it's like another version on top of the same link

[@Its_lofa]

Strange, yet sad

[@Saptadin]

Lagu si paling gw banget

[@FinestHourky]

I suppose maybe the video is about how some relationships/love may seem wrong to us, but that doesn't mean the two beings aren't happy with each other? Though I still think bestiality itself is bad, cause I don't think most animals actually understand what's going on, lol.

[@inazupra]

Sooo, I'm thinking I interpreted this wrong but... What I got out of this is that the squid and the old guy had an affair, the old guy left his wife, the squid killed the old dood and called to tell his wife that he'd practically raped and killed her husband and the babies that the old dood and the squid made are living on the old guy's glasses. Wow. I love the song though(:

[@Reserve777]

11 Peoples' spouses cheated on them with squids.

[@BillTerrier]

It's like if H.P. Lovecraft and Bjork had a baby together...

[@culturekate]

fun fact: it has been found that sometimes when eating squid some people have been stabbed and 'impregnated' on the inside of their cheek with squid sperm.

[@Ashogo]

Kate Buchanan inside of their cheek?

[@BOS7827]

the song is different from few months ago...

[@deathsave]

if you've never heard of dianogah. I'd suggest you do now.

[@19alexander95]

He hug with a octopus? :D

[@justmissj]

The squid looks a little like my ex-husbands new wife,but the squid is sexier and and doesn't scream as much

[@udkenpoole]

Wow. I cannot believe this video even has a dislike button.
