Theres a guy who I had a crush on. I wanted to talk to him but didn't know what about. I saw the shirt he was wearing with the bands name on it and looked them up. After a few songs I found that I liked how it sounded. When I heard this song it instantly became my favorite. I talked to the guy the next day about the band. I dont see him anymore but I'm glad I found this song. Its amazing.

[@Gospel90]

So glad they chose this as a single, there are so many gems on the album but this one is well deserved!

[@dannyrm9696]

That's a good way to start into the muggle world Draco, well played dude.

[@karenbarros7012]

lmao dude 💀😂

[@cryptotaco2401]

Hahahahahahahahah hilarious

[@fernandaariveros]

Has anyone noticed the yellow letters say "It's always you"?

[@NewGoldStandard]

Good eye.

[@xXVampirePrincessXx]

Aww

[@dannyhaobam9858]

It is sad that the band lost some of their former fans because of the new musical direction when the results should have been the contrary.

[@fullup91]

This was their best album to date. They are now making genius records. I'm so fucking happy for them. It's an explosion of passion and originality

[@jakeverdeprado100]

i think portamento was still the shit

[@deRegilUribe]

The garden reminds me to the one in Blue Velvet from David Lynch. The Drums is one of the only bands I´d play to my future kids when they´re babies.

[@ParchedPinemarten]

Ana Fernanda de Regil Uribe funny you mention that. jacob graham reminds me of kyle maclachlan a bit.

[@deRegilUribe]

Hoel Hoel Dude, you're right! They kinda do look alike!

[@ameanbitch5913]

That red jacket ❤️

[@DestroySystem]

there are no words to describe how much I love this song

[@ivansorola1997]

"It's too hard to begin when you know it will end"

[@richardbaker2085]

I see us high, high on a mountain I see us die, dying in a mountain

[@virgosiren]

Lyrics to I Can't Pretend It's too hard to begin when we know it will end And if you got a friend, better leave with him Well if you only want us to dance, I can stand up I know that I need love, but I CAN'T PRETEND, I CAN'T PRETEND One day the moon will set for the last time Maybe we'll become part of a mountain We've always learned these things You know I'm not crying But you know I'm not trying to get It's too hard to begin when we know it will end And if you got a friend, better leave with him Well if you only want us to dance, I can stand up I know that I need love, but I CAN'T PRETEND, I CAN'T PRETEND, I CAN'T PRETEND Remember when you first touched my hand We sparkled inside at the same time And now it doesn't even matter It's too hard to begin when we know it will end And if you got a friend, better leave with him Well if you only want us to dance, I can stand up I know that I need love, but I CAN'T PRETEND, I CAN'T PRETEND, I CAN'T PRETEND I see the sky, high on a mountain It's too hard to begin when we know it will end I see the sky, high on a mountain I see the sky, high on a mountain

[@yrureadingthisname]

[@estebangarciah]

I love it!! I don't know why everyone is so pissed about their new album, I think they are better now..

[@cryptotaco2401]

THis song reminds me of MGMT if MGMT was actually good at making music

[@Sciencegames21]

Crypto Taco check out MGMT now, they are dope

[@emptycinema]

MGMT is good, but to me, Drums are better

[@mikeplurple4942]

Yikes very wrong. Siberian breaks, when you die, of birds moons and monsters

[@stubru16]

Mint! 😊

[@aberockerroller2445]

sick

[@shawn8847]

It starts out with the "pop up video" sound fx

[@코코넛-o4q]

When I heard this song at first, I thought this song is so sad and lonely. But the video is quite active and funny.

[@aberockerroller2445]

where do the shiny red coats come fr I had a preminision tyeo tjimg about one with a dragon on it once lmao

[@davidwijaya8533]

Why don't you upload this song to the iTunes store?? u,u

[@pompororo]

Good x

[@Slothretro]

I was a show to sell drugs to the security guards back stage and I met these guys back there and the singer thought me and my homie were gonna jump him. Good times

[@smileyface3107]

Is it jsut me or do you hear a resemblance between this song and "Can't Get It Out Of My Head by ELO"

[@luisarias5368]

Me encanta

[@addNewAccount]

i feel like the drums.

[@vilmifigueroa]

OMG

[@Claudiughh]

Best song off Encyclopedia *_* uber cool album despite how different it sounds from portamento

[@nickchannel5364]

It's sooo Yankee.

[@miiiiii2617]

[@lehliladevandria5712]

When the drums went all mgmt on us. Jacob looks really depressed all the time.

[@miiiiii2617]

...........mind listening to this amazing hidden gem --- faceless humming by the impures ...... ......... .................. [][]cccc

[@sondoro1993]

the other video is so sad because the fish is in a little bowl its like hes trapped i feel it

[@mariamoreno3785]

Wait so Conner is not in the band anymore?? It's just him and Jacob?

[@kangical7113]

I hope I'm not the one who seek Duran Duran - Come Undone Music Video's references here.

[@PsychotronicVampire]

I loved the vid, except for the Sharks. Still the coolest vid of the band 👌💕🐟🐠🐬👏

[@ChivantriloIndustrie]

[@genova3722]

Love

[@genova3722]

[@julietfraser]

this song is amazing, got a really great dark side to it. I love the new vibes and the video is just amazing, great cinematography

[@ximenan6327]

Agreed

[@patriciomc9119]

This is a song where you understand all its simple, perfect lyrics but you still want to know what they're really singing about

[@georgespades6488]

I really love The Drums and I don't understand why people don't hear this type of music and hear basic and stupid radio pop that don't bring me nothing. The Drums Forever.

[@daynaespinoza3225]

Because what's the point if everyone listen to this? That will turn this into common music. Just glad that there are people around who like this music.

[@Slatts75]

story of my life alternitive/indie is so underrated

[@offtopic5527]

Exactly! You wrote this comment 7y ago. And since then I can't remember any of thouse chart hit songs, but I still come back to listen to the Drums, especially for the first albums

[@jeshy04cc]

Why this video has no BILLIONS of views? WHYYYYYYYYYY?

[@Crybaby_Club]

Their "look" is too niche to be profitable on a mass scale and honestly they are too smart, that doesn't play well. Record labels go for talentless simpletons with good looks who are easy to manipulate and don't challenge their fans to do too much thinking.

[@lauramartinezmerino8570]

Because people only want to hear Let's go surfing. In my opinion with each album they are getting better

[@Crybaby_Club]

It is a great song, but they have many great songs.

[@cozypunk2613]

i just danced to this at 12:33 am,the melancholy of the music gives me such a nostalgic feeling of never ending loneliness,knowing i danced all by myself in my room and so many memories flashing before my closed eyes taking me to another world and this song is my one way ticket because i don't want to come back.

[@isaiascruz389]

For whatever reason, this video is highly aesthetically pleasing. And I'm not the type to be concerned with aesthetic either.

[@manuelsantiagonava7377]

Best song from encyclopedia

[@AnimeHipster1]

Makarni i agree with you.

[@PumaFist]

Best angst committed to tape ever!

[@sliverbox271991]

omg such a nice video it fits the vibe perfetly

[@samantha-ue6sy]
