Parquet Courts - Berlin Got Blurry (Official Video)

[@westmezzanine4321]

“Kind ears captive to the beers you’ve purchased” What a brilliant lyric

[@daniel7379]

The artistry of the "yeah" down the phone is top notch.

[@nubejoven]

I love everything about this song. That chord progression, that silly bassline at the verse. But god, words cannot express how much i love the lyrics. If this song were a woman i would absolutly be afraid to talk to her.

[@johnreed2242]

I own a hard wood flooring company and I have just realised that Parquet Courts are my new favourite band.The irony of it is that often times I hate parquet flooring but ultimately I love them as I do this amazing band.

[@robrob1723]

I owned a hardwood flooring company for 25 years . Retired now . And yes love this band . Hated parquet because it was such a pain in the ass to install

[@thenuge4227]

are you hiring ?

[@sentient_baby_carrot]

I own a consumer packaged goods company and I have just realized that Parkay Quarts is my new favorite band. The irony of it is often times I hate oil-based butter substitutes but I ultimately love them as I do this amazing band.

“Feels so effortless to be a stranger but feeling foreign is such a lonely habit” describes exactly how I felt for the first 3 years after my family moved to a new state. God I wish this song was out when we moved here

My homie reminded me the other day that I wouldn’t shut up about this song the year before I moved to Berlin. Here now, and it’s quite something to play this tune on late nights on the trams, up and down the straßes 🥲

[@mrdevinpalmer]

These guys just keep on impressing me. Really hope, and inclined to believe, that more great music is to co.e from them.

My favorite song of 2016

[@ItsGibbyyy]

Yes! So happy I got the preorder, April come sooner!

[@gilmorejohn]

Great song fellas! Has that timeless feel to it. Not quite sure why but the energy and vibe of this song reminds me a ton of Minor Threat's "Good Guys (dont wear white)". I believe that is nothing but a good thing. Cannot wait to hear the new album. Parquet Court's songwriting gets better and better!

[@brendancullinan7126]

Love Parquet Courts and love this tune

[@Zakaria95M]

It's already hard to envision a better rock album this year. At least, the two official releases have set a lofty bar. I haven't heard such upbeat music from A. Savage since Fergus & Geronimo and Teenage Cool Kids' first two records (which I urge anyone who hasn't to check out), even though the subject matter might not be so joyous, tongue in cheek implications aside!

[@coolnesss16]

+Zakaria Meddings Savages album was strong, Tacocat has an album out that's great too.

[@thompsonpenke]

+Zakaria Meddings Denton after sunset if one of my favourite albums of all time. teenage cool kids were immense.

[@Renaldo135]

These guys are freakin AWESOME....They sound like Elvis Costello and Squeeze got together and had a baby...

[@zachmasterzach]

This one sounds a lot like the Clash (particularly the vocals.)

[@reginastraw382]

Yes, The Clash is who they sound like.I could not quite figure it out..Awesome🎶💗

[@SalmiakAlert]

On Freebird ii I think that the singer sounds like early Elvis Costello.

[@theringodd]

Met Andrew Savage after a gig last October. Asked him whether he'd seen more black guys at his shows, must have been the single most stupid thing I have ever asked someone and I can't apologize for it.

[@islandgroovies1444]

[Verse 1] Döner wrapper done right, an extinguished Crotch of a rollie inside yellow fingers Nothing lasts but nearly everything lingers in life Cellphone service is not that expensive But that takes commitment and you just don't have it It feels so effortless to be a stranger But feeling foreign is such a lonely habit [Bridge 1] You can't crop yourself out of a picture You're out of focus but still framed inside [Chorus 1] Well Berlin got blurry And my heart started hurting for you [Verse 2] Loud mouth living got you some attention And second chances given without doubt 'Guess you've got a history but it's not worth a mention tonight Kind ears captive to the beers you've purchased Sipping through scenes of plastered confession Telling pretty stories, is it your sole purpose? Telling everybody that you learned your lesson [Bridge 2] But no one's falling for that nice guy bullshit They waited years, you can wait one night [Chorus 2] Well Berlin got blurry When my eyes started telling it to [Verse 3] Funny how it charms you, that Teutonic frankness Listen and it arms you with a new type of patience Maybe it alarms you because it tastes so familiar and wild French fries, hot dog, ketchup, main ingredients Swears in flawless English it's the best in town Funny how a sameness can not be distinguished Strangeness is relieving when you point it out [Bridge 3] But email, poems, slogans an example Of three things I can't unify [Chorus 3] Well Berlin got blurry As my thoughts all hurried to you

Ive been a backpacker myself and have visited Berlin twice. It's an awesome city. The best in continental Europe, IMO. I think the clip captures perfectly the vibe of the city and its weird visitors (Adam Savage on the clip and myself in 2014 and 2015): -Eating doner kebab in a sloppy way on the streets -Walking through badly lit streets (it seems that Berlin people and public services dont care about good lightining on the streets at night. haha) -Talking on the phone to someone -Taking the U-Bahn with the Brandenburger Tor patterns on the glass window -Having trouble using the paid laundromat -The weird/cool bars we can visit, where you can have so many beers and make Berlin literaly get blurry. (I dont know if this is the meaning of the song) -Being an awkward foreing person trying to enjoy the city, but sometimes not being able, cause you are just too shy and awkward.

[@lucasgelati]

NICE!
