Mates of State - My Only Offer

The second video from Mates of State's new record "Re-Arrange Us"!

[@caliperjones9596]

Beautifully painful song of how “life” takes it’s toll on a relationship. I’ve lived it and I’m thankful we made it out on the other side. You become so good at living that you forget what you are living for.

[@nirvana454]

This album is still fantastic all these years later. ❤

[@DrMekis]

I love this duet. They have nice, complimentary voices. Great song.

[@HUMDUDE]

Troll 2 brought me here. This song reminds me of music from the 80's. I miss music from the 80's. Best time for music IMO.

[@mirasawao4580]

This sounds nothing like 80s... what are you talking about?

[@FrenchFry2232]

This is like my FAVORITE song ever. I've been listining to it on repeet for like 3 days now. SOOO good.

[@brad3]

Best Worst Movie documentary brought me here.

[@paulsenforprez]

A perfectly written indie pop song. So simple, elegant, yet complex in its own way...sad, bittersweet lyrics, great instrumentation. Beautiful harmonies.

[@charlotteborland]

this is possibly my favourite song ever, it was the first of theirs i'd heard and made me love them ;) the bridge is amazing.

[@daldladla]

This was a really, really great album.

[@TheTurkaderr]

Yes it was...it's actually the only album of theirs I can stand, I find all their other stuff too weird, but I love this album

[@torchiest]

Such a beautiful song. I've been listening to MoS for more than a decade, so glad to see them continuing to do well for themselves. They just come across as wonderful people you'd want to hang out with.

[@DigitalEnergyWorld]

Bought a home we bartered right 2 kids, 2 car delight Posed pictures on the walls Small talk in the bedroom halls Can't make it home tonight Go sleep but leave the light I pretend to make a call Loose talk in bedroom stalls Oh, oh, oh is my only offer Stifle copies of myself Oh, oh, oh or someone else My friends they all agree Give in to our defeat In secret we believe We're nothing, nothing, nothing that we need Oh, oh, oh is my only offer Stifle copies of myself Oh, oh, oh or someone else I always wanted to be the face in front of me Debating a life sucked out the energy build up a wall made out of finer things Piled it high so we could barely see it Oh, oh, oh is my only offer Stifle copies of myself Oh, oh, oh is all I have to offer

[@PoppaSquat-et3qp]

Really makes you want to jump into having a family

[@awansakti]

me and my band just performed a cover of this song to a crowd that have never heard of Mates of State and they loved it right away!

[@nickidmanisperfectki]

I saw them live last night, and I realized how amazing they really are. man, I love them

[@TheSecondComingRXSC]

@kinggodzilla Holy shit, I knew I heard this somewhere! It seriously is one of the only films that has credits as entertaining as the actual film. On a side note some one needs to give Grandpa Seth a big hug, he looks like he truly needs it!

[@ltdesp2002]

You two are geniuses. Keep making music, for you appreciated!!!!

[@PoppaSquat-et3qp]

One of the 🐐s

[@FemmeDuCiell]

This song is so fresh and beautiful. Love.

[@Kh5787]

one of my favorite mates of state songs. the video is cool. i'm surprised that a lot of people that have commented don't like kori? i love her. i think she's beautiful and a great musician

[@gorila910__8]

I was front row when you guys opened for Death Cab in Oregon, 2006 when I was 15. Could never remember your name, but I finally found you again and its just as I remember. One of the best shows I have ever been to.

[@mitch2109]

“If you could do anything to remedy this situation, what would it be?” “To go somewhere where no one could find me.”

[@scootershooter2002]

There is something about a woman and a mans voices harmonizing that just sends shivers down my spine...these two do it perfect. Great tune.

[@ninevehparker]

I was introduced to them through my toddler's favorite show Yo Gabba Gabba!!! I'm a total fan now!!!

[@1130gozasl]

This is bonkers...heard fir the first time recently..and I love it!!!!

[@poesravenfan]

Mates of State speaks for everyone trying to find something: in religion, in love, in life, or simply in being.

[@caliskaterdrummer]

I love them so such! They are the new music of my life!

[@itsandresduhhh]

i love the vibe of the song.

[@Bgeorges1681]

Everytime I here this song, I get a tingling feeling inside, and life is good :D

[@daredfoxchick889]

I brought myself here. And I'm glad I did.

[@billjohnson8911]

You have to wonder sometimes how gems like this song don't get anywhere near the attention they should. And other crappy stuff is played all the time. This is a great song.

[@TheTurkaderr]

Greatest album of that year

[@wiiman27]

the chorus gives me chills. it's not often that a song does that...

[@phantomsox]

I think it's so cool that they use a xylophone! I love this music video, it's so tactful. The music's good too

[@idgonemad]

I am in love with this jam.

[@cpdavngr]

Kewl vid. :) I love Mates of State! The first song I heard by them was "Parachutes" off of "Team Boo" a few years ago on a local indie station and I was hooked. Can't wait to see them live. :)

[@Hikaroochan]

Their voices are wonderful.

[@dude392]

Simply lovely.

[@dr3amstat3s]

makes me miss high school. 24 feels so old.

[@misterbruno]

Yeah, cool song and video! I saw this on an indie music show on a local channel for my cable provider

[@miken3883]

[@trackster3222]

[@cpdavngr]

Yea, I noticed that too. I hope the original is more synced up and it's just a youtube compression issue.

[@TurkeyTwizler22]

Yogscast! I am Dave! And I have the balls!

[@AyriannahOllivandra]

playing pandora, and matching videos up with the songs. this one would up exactly on time- I like it. \

[@rockrapgirl]

I would also like to add this this song makes me happy :)

[@StrayMedicine]

Indy music is simply the best.

[@videodude4]

@yewtewbdude What's that got to do with looks if you love their music? Just because you think they're ugly does not mean they make bad music.This is some of the best music I have heard in quite a while.

[@tioo5265]

Terrific lyrics. T)

[@vagelis15]

amazing..

[@olympiawa7891]

[@No1Seed]

[@rockrapgirl]

I'm learning to play this on piano; i've got a long way to go! XD

[@oo00SuperWeegee00oo]

I want the shirt the guy is wearing.

[@Constr1ct3d]

yogscast sent me :) it was a world of warcraft video about some secret room

[@NinerSkirata]

I actually felt bad for George Hardy as the movie progressed. He didn't realize how small his audience actually was.

[@odysseus1994]

yogscast sent me :D

[@xxfacexfacexx]

I would like to shop at this store. :)

[@PauldeSaintRat]

This song is motivating me for work I hope….

[@paradrummer21]

It's like a reverse Matt & Kim :D

[@ThePermsBand]

Nice work. Great vid

[@jamcoboston]

The song brings me back to 2006

[@Omniscientic]

Yogscast brought me here!

[@stephsperlak9003]

Yes ✨💖✨

[@Racoongoose]

@jonobong uhh matt is alive and wat do you mean pretty good theyre amazing

[@TheDaftMonk]

A good song for trains.

[@FManAngryAmerican]

I love how someone pointed out that they are a backwards Matt and Kim.

[@AirbagDeployed]

I saw their show at the independent in SF on 4/20! Epic win! Go Judgment Day!

[@bbiowa]

have i heard this in a movie or at least the music? that piano is very familiar sounding

[@anthonyv9324]

Best Worst Movie ending credits

[@jesusAttack]

Mates of State......synthesiser and a drummer......Matt and Kim :D

[@anthonyv9324]

Best Worst Movie brought me here in 2023!

[@np02058]

It would be really interesting too see what the result would be if Mates of state and Matt and Kim did a song together :P

[@jonnydumpy14]

OMG that would be AMAZING!!

[@TheHumanComa]

cool vid.

[@ibuprofenPill]

Why is this not a #1 song?

[@notintimeforpeanuts]

I think you can collect feathers w/o killing the birds. I'm not so sure that's an option with fur. I could be wrong, though. I guess.

[@cpdavngr]

Just out of curiosity, what station did you hear it on?

[@bebban9292]

Thats whats ment with the vid, they are suppost to look like window dolls or whats it's called in english xD

[@DuffBeer2nd]

First of all: Beautiful Song. And in answer to your statement. It wasn't the size of the audience, but the small amount of material he had to work with and the constant repetition of his memorable lines. You can only milk the nostalgia-cow for so long before it gets tedious. Keep in mind: He'd star in Troll 2: Part 2 if he is given the gig.

[@mytinypants]

They're wearing Love Brigade!

[@killermod0]

Thats a good way to attract business: keep Mates of State in boxes and have them play haha.

[@maoutsaou]

My Mother and Father brought me here... by accident. Or a stork and some bees. Please

[@SandersonCallum]

@rebelyell1983x HELL YEAH! BEST WORST MOVIE TROLL 2

[@chocolatteteapot]

Hahaha. Best thing I've ever read.

[@kinggodzilla]

@TheSecondComingRXSC well let's hug him!!

[@belafontelife9781]

It has a Matt and Kim vibe to it.

[@Scoobydoo16x]

No, it's not. Her name is Kori.

[@ttyylleerr11227722]

How old are these people?

[@melkeenvelho]

theres some weird camera angles in this video... the song is lovely though

[@fattiecakes1]

why is kate nash in the video?
