Frank Turner - Mittens (Official Video)

[@thiagolopes5328]

this song is a masterpiece

[@aestheticalrose4553]

I have this music video etched into my brain.

[@JeanGenie92]

Rewatching this realising that this is his now wife. Guess they fit like a glove afterall!

[@johnnyscifi]

Came to the same realization a few weeks ago. Fucking takes him right out

[@princesspepparr5362]

Gotta admit, listening to this song did not make me think about Frank dressed as Elvis swaying his hips against a microphone with a murderous grin. I'll accept it though.

[@johnnyscifi]

Lol, i actually didnt even notice his outfit until id seen it a few times

[@thehomeofimperfectyoga]

from anybody else, this outfit would be unacceptable... but it's frank 😁😁🥰🥰

[@aidangundy7685]

Agreed

[@belle9355]

One of my favourites off the album ♡

[@WilliaNBK7]

I think this is the best song in this new album. What a great song!

[@Stillontour]

Willian Barros Kochhann totally agree

[@bronnlewis884]

This video made me appreciate Frank even more, didnt know that was possible

[@JordanApap]

I love the Red and Blue. Very good tie in to the album cover.

[@mickchannonsghost]

probably make tit of myself here or I'll show I get it. Anyone thats been stupidly in love with someone but its one sided knows you go through all sorts trying to be noticed more, only to be slapped down. Maybe not to the extent of dressing as Elvis but great symbolism. Fantastic song.

[@mickchannonsghost]

Ben Morse Photography :-& cheers Ben. When you've been there and done it, it stands out. I'm guessing the haters have never been through it.... Jesus, I'm one sad twat!!! :-D

[@sophiebramley8185]

This was my exact thoughts on the video no matter how much you can do for someone you love sometimes they will never appreciate your efforts and never reciprocate your feelings.

[@mickchannonsghost]

sophie Bramley It's the look on Frank's face at the end, all too familiar to me, the look that says "why the f*ck do I do this to myself?"

[@Stillontour]

Absolutely love this song and yes I’ve been there, but in the end it was a learning experience and it’s a cherished memory of mine

[@georgia9886]

yes, to all of this!

[@jazzagenomad2953]

Frank's output is incredible, and everything he's ever done is of the same fantastic quality. Thank you for not making us wait five plus years for a great album like a lot of other musicians out there. Seriously, The Clash and The Ramones are two of the only bands to do the same. It's a huge deal.

[@juanjavier7889]

this is my absolute favorite song of the album, and in my opinion the video was great and original.

[@Lunaman2269]

I was like "huh, Elvis?" but then her reaction to him being silly, in love, then the look on his face as he lay on the ground.... I get it. I've been there, not as Elvis, but I've been walked out on and had that look like "I was silly in love, now I'm lying here sad and alone"

[@SnowXWolfX1800]

When I saw you play this song live I cried. I had never cried at a concert before. This video is lovely. Especially the ignoredlovesongs link. I sent a post card. Keep being awesome, Frank and I'll continue to love your content. :)

[@Tcoldsteel]

Frank don’t read the comments, mate.

[@PipsMusics]

"We all have our own devices for handling mid-life crises, usually involves a motorbike and suspicious fashion decisions!" xD

[@christophegeorge8198]

t'y ji yt ujhh

[@gamehendge725]

YES!!!

[@lauragabbidon7723]

Wrong song but totally true

[@johnnyscifi]

[@ryanfarlie8589]

Goodbye $4.99, hello new Frank Turner EP!

[@DebbiesDirection]

This is one of my favorite songs from the album. I don't quite understand the video though. Just ordered the EP. I cannot wait to hear the new songs.

[@DaddyMandM]

Great. Let' you imagine and feel the size of the emotions. Been there, felt that. Not so great. A while ago now. About the time when the video came out, but it can still bring back the emotions. Thankyou Frank. Gonna go and buy the Frank Turner Songbook now That for sure will make me soar again

[@rws284]

This was always my favourite song on the album

[@punkystarfishSA]

I think this may be my favourite song from the album!

[@kimothy9628]

You were always the glove- she was the mitten... I know the feeling all too well.

[@RogerSmith2282]

I may be way off but I think the Elvis symbolism is awesome. Frank is a rock star whether he likes it or not and has some parallels with the king. I imagine it could be hard to intimately connect with someone that doesn't really understand what it's like to be a celebrity. He may be the king to the world but he feels like he's fallen or a failure to this other person. Maybe I'm way off.

[@Fawkes42]

Well that was an experience.

[@MyAFDA]

Frank has done it again!!!

[@christopherdriver8317]

The king

[@jaimecorno1110]

I love this song

[@DarkPegasus3]

Love love love everything about this, frank you are great!

[@merivelmoon]

Love this tune!

[@ersudoku]

he's the man

[@fishboness]

I'm trying to find a specific song but I can't find it but just going through all of his songs is great

[@somesecondaryaccount]

Did you find it?

[@Maceman486]

I was sort of scratching my head when the video first began I was like "Oh, Elvis. Yeah he's made some references to him in other places, but what does that have to do with..." then the camera pans to the girl and it just clicked into place why Frank was doing this. Great job portraying something that everyone can relate to in a way that is uniquely you. I hope I can catch a live show one day. Going to be a bit hard to do that in Kansas, but I'll be on the lookout.

[@trevorstewart5518]

+Michael Gilbert Oh man. He was just in KC in December. One of the best performers I've ever seen!

[@Maceman486]

+Shenanglers Marshall Cool! I'll probably see you at the next concert then.

[@Maceman486]

+Trevor Stewart Yeah I live in KC...don't know why I didn't hear about this. I can catch a Gaslight Anthem concert but this one slipped by?

[@trevorstewart5518]

Yeah it flew under the radar a bit but i heard them talking about it on 96.5. It was for one of the nights the buzz stole xmas. He played all of his best songs. Fantastic show haha.

[@michaelmcmahon5623]

Definitely a must-see live act. My girl wasn't too into Frank when I played his albums, but was blown away at the concert. He is just such a showman and authentic musician and his passion shows.

[@meowingismyfavorite]

omg this is amazing, i love frank so much. XD

Verse 1] Wandering lonely through the snow streets of New York I stumbled on a thrift store that sold postcards by the yard I bought a mile and shipped them home so I could read Ten thousand ten-word tragedies, the lives these strangers lead To remind myself the things I need [Chorus 1] Cause I once wrote you love songs You never fell in love We used to fit like mittens, but never like gloves [Post-Chorus 1] You left me feeling like We'd never really been in love [Verse 2] Huddled home up in my place, in Holloway I wondered if you ever heard those songs I used to play I wrote the [?] gift for you and in return You gave a pair of hand knit mittens to keep my fingers warm So I could play more ignored love songs [Chorus 2] I once wrote you love songs You never fell in love We used to fit like mittens, but never like gloves And I once wrote you postcards You never wrote back Promised me you would and I'm still waiting for them [Post-Chorus 2] You left me feeling like We'd never really been in love Don't wanna fit like mittens I wanna fit like gloves Wanna fit like gloves [Outro] I once wrote you love songs You never fell in love We used to fit like mittens but never like gloves Never like gloves

[@123strongbow1]

I was not expecting that

[@maxgriem9395]

Wouldve never thought, that i would ever relate to this song as much as I am right now. It is just as beatiful as it is sad, i love it..

[@jonathanosters]

As far as I can tell, the video adds another layer to the song; in the song he sings about how he wrote and sang all these love songs for her and she never really reciprocated. But in the video it appears that the songs he was writing were in fact very hokey and dumb, which more justifies her point of view. I may be way off base here, though. Love the song, video is a little surreal.

[@JayDubEww]

I can't find the live performance anymoe, but he explained he wrote this song for a buddy of his who felt this way about a woman.

[@xChrisS41x]

This looks like a weird dream^^

[@Livemusicgigs]

Couldn't watch this keeping a straight face haha 😂

[@Nicole-mq4to]

Love this song ❤️ Also great video Frank! ❤️

[@leannez11]

I really like it! I'm so happy this song got a video and it's also very funny! Frank looks so cute with the rose in his mouth, lol

[@sophiebramley8185]

I love this song favourite off of the album (but whole album is great) I get the video and think it's amazing.

[@akispetretzikisen-id]

Hello 👋

[@isladoodle]

my favourit song xxxx

[@LilithiaRain]

My boyfriend's interpretation of the video: "Guys, we need a video, what do we have?" - "Elvis suit, creepy lighting, a club, and one extra." - "OK, he dances, walks creepily over, and then gets slapped, because everyone of us wants to see that" - "That's a minute, tops!" - "Errrm, slomo!" - "Brilliant!" My interpretation: The slap is a metaphor for the emotional pain and disappointment deriving from unrequited or unequal love, leaving you lonely and hurt on the ground, however hard you try to make it work, if your personalities just don't fit... And maybe what you're into just seems creepy to the other person. :D

[@seussscat]

I laughed alot, because Frank you look ridiculous and amazing all at the same time and i love the dancing. Great video and when you see it all the way through, it makes sense with the song which is such a great song. Hope you had as much fun filming this as I had watching it. Apart from the end, that bit is sad.

[@decwindsor4714]

2020 love you frank turner!!

[@cromwellthepardoner3139]

Never fails to impress

[@FroyDestroy]

Viva El Rey!

[@jackharman4516]

[@clairekent1196]

They fit perfectly 😊 Jess ❤ Frank x

[@molliek.9573]

Hello 👋

[@natur245]

Une Très Belle Chanson Hamid From DZ

[@OFFICIALTEAMLUCID99]

Claret and Blue army!!!! Great song though. I live Frank Turner!!!!

[@johnnyscifi]

Pretty sure the woman that smacks him out is Jessica Guise

[@jamesfairman8172]

That's Jess!!!!

[@ryansimmonds731]

is that the same girl from Gaslight's "here comes my man" ???? could be wrong here so easy on me... loved this song through a good pair of headphones.. this album is great. the video is ummm... interesting

[@bobbybland100]

It's the hair, man!

[@marydeak6134]

I mean in the song, she did feel for him a little. She feels absolutely nothing here. Mittens suggests there was something, sometime, but now there's nothing.

[@akispetretzikisen-id]

Hello 👋

[@majorminorcan7631]

I'd like to think the premise is that of a romantic comedy's climax " a man who is desperately trying to get back the love of his life after he cheated on her, got an idea from a movie to dress up as an elvis impersonator ( his girlfriend's favorite artist)and put on a show for her. As she realises that she is the only one invited to the show, his confidence gets the best of him while making this grand gesture and gets completely rejected.

[@shanag8545]

Well done Ben Morse!

[@johnnyscifi]

TCB, Frank, TCB

[@vosey97]

Elvis has definitely left the building after watching that

[@ThomWorth]

Is this the preview for the new David Brent movie?

[@samcooper8678]

fantastic song crappie!!!!! video love frank turner Xxxxxxx

[@alexmatthews6913]

Weird video but I like it.

[@rhorvat]

A bit slower and it would be like The Pixies' Velouria. Still, I love Frank and I love this song.

[@dudeyousuckreally]

dat outfit doe

[@theyugibros5530]

Loved it and hated it, loved it: because it can literally tell the story of a whole relationship in a 4 minute video through a slowed down 30 second video. hated it: because I just kind of hoped to see more, something that would hit me directly in the feels as the song did when I first heard it, the video didn't really do that for me.

[@theundeniablegem]

when you realise frank ended up marrying the woman in this video

[@deadlegification]

Nevermind Mittens,hes had some shit-uns.

[@boundlessrealms8958]

question, why is the lyric video private now?

[@ArboldeLimon]

I may understand the metaphor.

[@robramplin2971]

This is just a shouted version of I saw mummy kissing Santa Claus

[@Amandarileymusic]

3:11 you're welcome

[@siemaszmona1388]

Jesus, man.. What is going on with your videos? The song is beautiful, and someone told you make the video like this.. Hope you've enjoed laying on the floor.

[@deadlegification]

Cheesey helmet.

[@ft_kent2463]

😂

[@hdidy1]

Song is great but the video is just plain creepy.

[@daizhajohnson4015]

but the girl is pretty

[@alexswift456]

Dont get me wrong, love this song but am I the only one who cringes at the mittens/gloves metaphor

[@derfinsniter5185]

Alex Swift I think it's beautiful honestly, it's hard to describe it honestly

[@gandberg]

very weakerthans sounding, which is obviously great

[@KayleighMorganMusic]

Terrible, awful video. especially considering how great the video for Josephine was.

[@derfinsniter5185]

KayleighMorganMusic wrong

[@Stillontour]

It’s not that bad come on, especially considering how awesome the song is

[@muhammadreymond6417]

Elvis? I hate this clip.. you can make it more romance, Frank

[@TomEbbsjamasteroids]

Tom Lukas is Better

[@BillTakats]
