I remember when I searched "grizzly bear" on youtube looking for footage of grizzly bears out in nature. This came up. It didn't have 200 views at the time. A lot in my life experiences has changed since finding this.

[@mattsalon7007]

I found them while researching stop motion animation.

[@qayumahmad1019]

me and you are in the same sir..

[@stephenm107]

@Brian yep

[@likwidflame]

Sefir Yetzirahhhhhhhhh!!!

[@wenthecowscomehome]

Same, i had a 3rd grade project on grizzly bears, i was scarred lol

[@GraceinWonderland7]

honestly every music video that grizzly bear makes, makes my favorite list. i adore their crazybeautiful mentality.

[@kathifuller5332]

I was just thinking how every one of their videos strike me like that. Indescribably beautiful, inscrutable but - at the same time - achieving some sort of closure that makes perfect sense, even if you can't really explain how. They just feel right.

[@dmonvisigoth1651]

Hard to watch through all the tears and hallucinations

[@ryankoss4378]

Is "doom beach boys" a thing yet? Cuz I think it could/might be?

[@boyburger]

Ryan Koss nice point there lol

[@reccecs4]

Amazing.

[@mster]

Go listen to Panda Bear 😁

[@mster]

Or Animal Collective 🤔

[@generalmalaise2930]

i like that

[@DACDAC78]

Up there with windowlicker/come to daddy for wonderfully unsettling imagery, and a beautiful song to boot!

[@kbyourself]

a lot of songs are slow, but that's what makes them uniquely them. but a lot of songs start off slower but have a sudden shift and climax at the end. yellow house is one of the best albums I've ever heard--and I think you should definitely invest in it. even if you're not into it, atleast you know!

[@SomethingWet]

Wow, this is a 14 year old comment... If you still use this account, what music do you mainly listen to now?

[@ablackfeltmarker]

always loved grizzly bear. always. but i heard this song live in pittsburgh while rolling on molly, and let me just say: i don't think i ever felt so complete.

[@jordansoccorsi9297]

2007, summer....AMAZING!!!!!!!

[@dixienormous6969]

Why was it amazing? 🗿

[@ashkachui]

Came here as CSS did an electro cover of this song, they sound great too.

[@OmegaNexus1]

I just got high listening to this song, and it scares the shit out of me to try and think of the deep meaning of this video..

I have found my new love.

[@stevecorbett1665]

Skins again in 2023

[@TwiliticHorizon]

@AndrewTejedor1618033 I mean that people can just be creative without smoking weed, thats like saying you have no talent UNLESS you do some kind of a drug.

[@plasticwrapcharlie]

seriously dude? I understand there's some weird mystical shit going on in this video, but it's easy to see a couple themes from this video; daily we attempt to extract materials for our own human use from the earth, and eventually it will come to consume us- it goes back to the christian adage "earth to earth, and dust to dust." in the bible, adam was created from earth, and when we die that's where we go. We, just like all living things are made of carbon and water, and therefore share a unity

[@ashkachui]

Why do I see Joji

[@vergaraa2956]

i want you to know... when i look in your eyes with every blow comes another lie you think it's alright you think it's alright you think it's alright ................................ can't you feel the knife? can't you feel the knife? can't you feel the knife?

[@orbisterzonerdevi1530]

This song has the BEST ending EVER those keyboard notes during the ending have certainly been channeled from some higher plane of existence, they are the sound of some kind of sensation, feeling, beauty indescriptible to words.

[@wun__]

I don't feel that with This song. but I know it. i know that feel. guitar solo from liquid visions - nightfall, is one of its names to me

[@froxzp]

poor tony, if you had seen skins you understand

[@sEEE724]

nacho ignacio That's why I'm here. Skins brought me c:

[@elisekenrick2197]

nacho ignacio skins brought me here

[@maggals]

[@tinahill.994]

I’m here because of skins too😂

[@juri-khan.]

I’m crying yeah And btw I’m 30 years old, still here Jesus!

[@christine7521]

I always felt like this song would make a very very sad slow dance song

[@OuachitaMtn]

So glad I got to see them live. Vastly underrated band. Yellow House and Veckatimest were fantastic albums. And this video is the shit.

[@Animal14722]

Definitely one of the greatest bands post 2000, one my favorites at least. These guys, Crystal Castles, Animal Collective, etc were my guys in high school

[@TheToolfan123]

This is a masterpiece of art and music! Holy shit this is amazing!

[@DoGlowy]

I have vague memories of coming here while very high, it felt like a feature length film

[@nickfernandez7563]

I have a feeling I've been here too, it's almost like an altered state of consciousness

[@2chrono2]

+Mister Disco I'm WAY too sober and this still feels like a feature film.

[@CornerOfTheUniverse]

Reminds me of like an old 80's sci-fi/fantasy book, and on the label you'd see the brand TOR.

[@worldtradeandstockunlimite9829]

it's like a cross between star trek and there will be blood

[@Bizorke]

You should watch Firefly.

[@Wisupi]

This sounds like good music to die to

[@dixienormous6969]

You should make a playlist called "good music to die to" 🗿

[@alpacacide]

Man this song. Just the first time hearing it. Stoned on a swing set with a few friends late on a summer night.

[@StinkyBeans]

I watched a Twilight Zone marathon once and had a dream a lot like that.

[@karmacoat4388]

I love how grizzly bear never gives a fuck in their music videos. "Oh im drowing in this weird goo, let me look right into the camera." #nofucksgiven

[@krashd]

Crystal man puts his junk on Leonardo Dinklage's chest while tiny band drown.

[@behrwillsonn3181]

I met Ed Drost at the Sly Fox in NYC. I told him I love his music and he said thanks and shook my hand. He seemed like a nice guy. The two things that struck me is that Ed is a giant. Like he could talk onto the Jets' practice squad as is. Like a large man. The other thing is that he was smiling and happy. I never saw him like that, hahaha.

[@candyelvis5]

This is my favorite music video. It reminds me of the magic I find in White Sands, New Mexico.

[@agclockwork1]

Is that Father John Misty?

[@jeffrogers2180]

He was in Fleet Foxes not grizzly Bear

[@Vntichrist]

Pretty ass girl

[@agclockwork1]

Jeff Rogers yes I know that. 💀 it’s just a joke.

[@agclockwork1]

Vntichrist oh shit thanks 🥺

[@princessnekonivardi]

You fucking made me spit out my coffee the first time I read this. I came back to the video just for this comment. Fuckin hilarious.

[@mattycfox]

Great to see a non-electronic band on the world's best electronic record label. Warp are visionaries.

[@ConfuzzledOwO]

Why does this video remind me of cyriak. Also, CROTCH CRYSTALS. It had to be said.

[@patrickhodgen9933]

I remember having the worst flu of my life in about March 2015 - cold sweats to the point you feel like being sick. For some reason i came across this video then and i can’t associate it with anything else.

[@tom255uk]

Thanks for sharing ☺️

[@jenniferniskanen361]

I've loved this for ages. I wish is would be rereleased at 4k with higher quality audio and video.

[@Tdawgg.]

There aren’t any words to articulate how deeply I feel for Grizzly bear. It’s like I’ve been born into this world and it took me until I was 15 years old to finally discover them, but when I did everything made sense in a way. Each song made sense. Each chord strum and all vocal harmonies. I’m now 30 year old and I’m still in love with Grizzly bear and all of its previous members as if I were 15 first discovering them. I would love to go on and on but I feel like no one will read this so I will save my words because I’m sure most grizzly bear fans understand what I’m trying to articulate. It’s hard to explain feelings of melancholic joy and other things all wrapped up in one!! I hope to see more works from Christopher Bear and Daniel Rosen and I’m so so so in love with the work they did on Past Lives Soundtrack. One of my favourite movies of all time. Sobbing in theatre. Peace

[@tolmorris]

Fifteen years listening to song and the intro still gives me shivers.

[@ISETUONFIREstudios]

art at its finest

[@rachaeljones1562]

The way this song sounds is literally how I feel all the time.. Chill af but def a saddie.

[@mochoshakakhan]

Thats why you buy the cd, and not watch the video

[@brooksbabcock8530]

Such an amazing song! This band is amazing live

[@ramosmary26]

welll.. that's grizzly bear for ya

[@Rsllxs]

this was always reminiscent of La Planete Sauvage to me

[@mohamedsoliman3484]

Rsllxs well said!

[@Orange-hm5rg]

umm.. I'm right HERE!!!!!

[@AllboroLCD]

14 years old now, damn..... I remember seeing this video, and then serendipitously, I found myself at MoMA when Bjork was debuting her Encyclopedia Pictura directed video for wanderlust, IN 3D!!

[@dixienormous6969]

Wow serendipitously! I never really see or hear anyone use that word lol I like that 🗿 also it's now been 16 years.. crazy absolutely wild.

[@josericardo5994]

I have been a fan of Grizzly Bear & this song since I was 14 years ol; I am 32 YO now. I remember whenever the band & this song were barely known and now thousands of people share the same feelings this song gives. It touches the inner depths of my soul every single listen no matter the time that has passed. I will always come back to this song. I will say the video is not recommended for those who are beginners in psychedelics from experience.

[@bryna1776]

This music video scared the shit out of me as a kid 😭

[@honeyraphaela]

i love i love i love i loveeeee so muuuuch this song

[@mirandas1089]

reminds me of the original land of the lost

[@ramosmary26]

remembering when I would watch skins and this song coming on:) always made the scene that the song was in more touching and relatable to me iDk

[@Mrseparator92]

I want you to know when i look in your eyes with every blow comes another lie you think its alright you think its alright you think its alright can't you feel the knife? can't you feel the knife? can't you feel the knife? can't you feel the knife?

[@jennalynnerose]

First watched this and heard this song in 07/08 living with my cousin as a teen. I was tripping balls on shrooms in the laundry closet 😂 great memories

[@westendlolo3313]

My friend showed me this band when was lil I miss him so much I’m glad he showed me this band

[@geaneoliveira5398]

Skins❤️✨

[@Schwarzwind]

this is the kind of song, more then a decade on, that I find my self belting out at 2am, drunk, walking down a empty road with my phone out of battery.

[@HiGlowie]

Well said. Well said.

[@dixienormous6969]

That sounds nice 🗿

[@robcrellen9171]

Freaks Me Out....Kinda Like The Hills Have Freaks(instead of Eyes...), But, Just LISTEN to Those Harmonies.....INCREDIBLE....

[@desert_holly]

I heard this for the first time just after my very first integratron sound bath experience - almost 14 years ago. Monumental pivot point in my life. I'm so thankful for this whole album 🙌 💓 🎧

[@francoisjoly7696]

Probably the best composers arrangers melodists harmonists since The Beatles... and with better lyrics yet. Pure genius!

Lots of drug trips spent listening to this one

I was looking for 'The Knife' and came across this! A happy accident!

[@lizmoore9541]

The band 'The Knife' if you have an eclectic taste in music have a look. I LOVE THEM!

[@masutapangaea]

What the fuck just happened

[@spinalvinyl]

I love this song but when I watch this video it feels like someone is touching my belly button. Nooooo.

I frist heard this song while eating at PF Chang's with my 4 month old daughter and her mother....I thought I was listening to the beatles so I pulled out my iPhone, switched apps from Simpson' tapped out to Soundhound and realized it was this song..... been hooked ever since.... THis is what really occurred!

[@theoldblood3804]

Iv literally had dreams with machinery like in thjs video. Not exactly, but eerily similar

[@migol1984]

it looks to me as though our perceptions of free speech are so miscued. freedom of speech is for anyone and everyone however it may offend. i'd wager the person was not bashing someone for their lifestyle, but it was simply a reference to how drugs are not needed to enjoy the quality of this music video and any mention of drugs is an attempt to "fit in". if anything it has been al3xc93 rights to free speech who has been overstepped.

[@Bacchus42088]

@TwiliticHorizon but imagine how much MORE creative those people would be if they tried drugs...anything that takes you out of your normal mind frame will always change the way you think; its just ANOTHER tool to use. Anything that is a new experience can change a person, such as traveling the world, or reading books, or watching movies. Drugs aren't the only way but they are a damn fun way haha. You're definitely right about drugs not being the ONLY way to be creative, but it sure can help.

[@InsomniumX]

As someone who has done psychedelic drugs I feel the right to say: the semireligious devotion and importance internet kids give to drugs is both annoying AND sad. Also, cheers Grizzly Bear. Always wonderful.

[@dankane90]

It's relevant because Luke's comment was flagged as "Spam", and he was only stating his opinion. How can you not see the relevance? I guess you will ridicule me now, you're clearly very good at it.

This was always my favourite adaptation of Dune

Who else watched this in the early days of KZbin????

[@mattycfox]

I like this song sober. But anybody who shuns someone for applying this song with psychedelic drugs, is pretty nieve. Lol. Just saying.

Reminds me of what I could have had ❤

[@thrivedru]

I love how they were able to get Sam Beam from Iron and Wine in this video.

[@marcbontho430]

Frank Jim Woodring, good taste that matches the song perfectly

[@TwiliticHorizon]

whats with the mention of drugs? People cant be creative without the use of drugs? you all sound like 13 year old.
