The Wombats - Anti-D (Official Video)

[@andreaharrington3913]

Who's still jammin out this beautiful masterpiece in 2024?!

[@Spacjao]

Me

[@lyly0451]

I think the part of the video that got to me most was when Dan and Tord helped Murph into the chair. It felt to me like that was symbolising the help of friends in a time of depression, but maybe it was simply just Dan and Tord wanting to be in the video.

[@MyMusickitty]

You can be surrounded by as much happiness as their is in the world but it won't stop you feeling as bad as you do inside

[@patrickbo2045]

This 100% describes depression.

[@threecheers5101]

MyMusickitty I wish more people would realise this

[@nathgangma]

@@patrickbo2045 this 100 percent describes antidepressant medication feeling.

not until you untie that little knot in your chest and turn it into a bow 🏹

[@markearl7172]

weed is the only thing that works for me anti's just numb you

[@SarcasticInnocence]

2:20 when his band mates helped him up. my heart just melted omg. i love this song so much

[@jamesbrittles3357]

SarcasticInnocence that was the best bit of the song

[@jordanmiller7354]

what's sad about this song is that it actually shows you what depression is like, everybody is happy around you and having a great time and the your just there feeling emptier and emptier because all you feel is sadness

[@skankhunt5627]

stupid comment

[@emmafordham8317]

'Our vivid dreams are just like big production movies' PERFECT lyrics.

[@darrenboyle6193]

such a great song, hope it cheers some people up

[@slushpup9696]

I feel like that really captures the whole album, happiness through depression. There's even this line in Schumacher the Champagne, "you might as well be proud of last place". Really cool theme, I loved this album. cheers

[@PoisonMarigold]

I love how he says "Flattened as a pan-c-cake" blimmin love him

[@Listless_Robin]

Been listening to this for 6 hours on loop whilst lying on my floor.

[@jordanmiller7354]

same

[@jordanmiller7354]

same

[@skankhunt5627]

So you like listening to shit music over and over again

[@Listless_Robin]

Pissflaps Magee If it is shit to you then the answer is yes

[@katze5311]

This could totally be me. Everytime I'm depressed I lie on the floor in my kitchen or I take every pillow and blanket I can find and build a den where I spend the whole day and hiss at everyone who wants to talk to me, build me up or just looks at me. And songs like this make me feel a little bit mor confident in those situations.

[@MissKizzy]

Such an underrated beautiful song. I completely understand about the depression people are feeling while there are so many good things going around. It is so much harder than that.

[@surfcowboy2]

This video is so fucking genius if you really watch and think about it

"It's hard to smile when you're as flattened as a pancake The only tears come from our heads when we concentrate Perhaps I'm being unjust or perhaps you agree"

[@ohitsmikka]

I wanna live in the UK. This is what music should sound like

[@ishtar709]

My girlfriend and I just split and my depression played a big role in it. This song helped a bit, I thank you brother.

[@xinsaneox]

best thing to come out of Liverpool since the Beatles they're just amazing i need to see them again :)

[@bichnawhat]

I used to listen to this song like 6 or 7 years ago, and I loved it for just the song itself. But now grown up, this song slaps! It hits different.

[@MrJimmyangel]

I heard this song this weekend at the Radio 1 Big Weekend, and it blew me away, i've always liked The Wombats, but this was the 1st time i heard them live, and i've since booked tickets to see them in Newcastle this october, definately a new fan.

[@CaseyJane93]

Still listening in 2020 , very apt atm

[@socialsupply]

Always coming back

[@elbettto]

What a good video! I just discovered this band today! Sounds really good also

[@connoroflynn1750]

I always feel a million times better after a good half our session with the wombats. They are literally the best thing for depression...

[@vcdrummer1289]

A beautiful piece of great music, made by outstanding musicians.

[@lindadaheim3412]

As a depressive person, this makes me smile. It is very true. One of my tools against depression: listening to the Wombats!

[@bobbybolivia9304]

Very interesting imagery, well played Wombats

[@DaveysRoom]

I keep coming back to this. It's perfect.

[@keshanadvidson]

Listened to this song as a teenager & I never really understood it until now.

[@Mentalhealthadvocate]

I’ve never related to a comment more

[@bichnawhat]

Same

[@carmeladada738]

just gets better with time and is so relatable to so many people. i hope watching this has cheered you up like it has done for me

[@daisythegrey]

I saw these guys live and i must say, it was the best gig i have been too :D

[@jamesahmed1889]

thats why i love the wombats everything they have done virtually is upbeat

[@thatsmile8033]

Feeling a bit like I'm standing on the edge of the cliff, ready for the fall

[@serenageorga7458]

That Smile hang in there mate

[@Liebjuice]

this song has so much meaning behind it. depression is... very tough. take it from someone who knows. I hope everyone can get the help they need.

[@rockityroll1110]

So addicted right now

[@HayJax]

This type of song can save lives! Awesome song writing - this is needed in music

[@meredithfox3810]

Omg :'( This is so god damn beautiful, did anyone else cry?

[@sayakota5771]

+Meredith Overman i ate whole box of zoloft while listening to this, mistook popcorns... and am dizzy... and also crying... glad you asked...

[@gunnar3888]

+saya kota No, you didn't.

[@DaveysRoom]

Every day.

[@imGrape]

listened to this song every day about 5 times for a week now. absolutely incredible.

[@BlushableBeauty]

Just covered this on my channel, such an amazing song I love this

[@jazatouille]

first heard the wombats on radio 1 with 1996 and have loved them ever since!

[@bobbyb373]

This song means a lot to me, my best friend at university is suffering from depression & takes citalopram. Always makes me think of her.

[@imaclay777]

My grandma was a drug addict till the day she died. This songs chorus sums up what I always thought but never said to her.

[@nolawombat290]

They Have played a HUGE part in my life. When my Bff walked in on me cutting, she said Stay Alive for the Wombats. And so i did, I am Glad I did. I love you Guys!

[@project_letters]

That's a good motivation to live-

[@rahmaa9791]

This song is always at the back of my head, I miss this era

[@LoisClinton]

Thank you.

[@hopeanderson2943]

Probably my all time favourite song... but saying that anything by the wombats is my all time favourite. The video is absolute genius!

[@aitnyhcat]

murph so cuteeee

[@erinhoover6621]

Forever my favorite song and music video. Love you, Murph!🤍✌🏻

[@coral8274]

Please allow me to be your anti-depressant I too am prescribed as freely as any decongestant We kick back and let the pills do the talking People hear a distinct rattle when we're walking Then there's the extra two stone that's our only guarantee Our vivid dreams are just like big production movies They get entangled well within our daily routines So please re-think or use my trademark strategy And please allow me to be your anti-depressant I too am prescribed as freely as any decongestant It's hard to smile when you're as flattened as a pancake The only tears come from our heads when we concentrate Perhaps I'm being unjust or perhaps you agree Still I've thrown away my citalopram I needed more than what was in those 40 milligrams So cast away with the doctor's plans And please allow me to be your anti-depressant I too am prescribed as freely as any decongestant Still I've thrown away my citalopram Although I felt as grim as the reaper man So cast away with the doctor's plans Like me

[@zozolee94]

I'm having a break down and when I'm feeling down I stick this song on. Thank you Wombats for cheering me up :)

[@slushpup9696]

1:55 - Dan leaning on the car 2:01 - Tord standing in the driveway 2:19 - "Holy shit, maybe we should help him up..."

[@berthabowa7888]

It's a whole beautiful piece!!!

[@BabyBatFightClub]

You'll float, too

[@Lizzeshade]

You think they can't get any better and they slap you around the face with their creative and lyrics. just wow

[@kateriley8611]

"we kick back and let the pills do the talking" is quite possibly the best and most relatable lyric ive ever heard

[@silverpyro19]

fell in love with this song last night, fell in love with the band right now

[@Kopesy]

I've just come off mine for the same reasons!

[@elorelei14]

Best song they've EVER written. Like!

[@pindaman7622]

when you don't pay for your insurance in America.

[@PhilipDavies62]

Fantastic. Not pretending to be pretentious, not trying to be the big man on campus, just what it is. Take it easy, enjoy it if it's your sort of thing, otherwise just move on! It's a free world.

[@jordanmiller7354]

I relate to this video more than anything

[@Margod141]

same as me

[@MonilothDreams1]

and take it literally mate, two weeks ago I suddenly switched, and realised the ability that is in us all. September 2012 till December christmas day I was depressed. I am about to listen to this song for the first time, but from reading your comment I understood you probably do get it even though I have no proof as I;ve yet to watch the video, but I have faith in you. Basically, I transformed myself, suicidal thoughts controlled my every action. Now I live to love myself an everyone else.

[@1gnore_me.]

Oh my god this video is scary, it sounds and looks exactly like how I feel when on antidepressants.

[@bonsly666]

This is so awesome! The color, the people, the place EVERYTHING!.

[@tommoconstantly]

I was on 50ml of Citalopram, No Good that was, im now on Zoloft :/ its stronger but the diazepam works best, Depression Sucks :(

[@milliewarner8911]

Tansell Ziggy-Zig I'm on fluoxetine and they refuse to let me change it because they think it's working just fine.

[@tommoconstantly]

thats not right :( only you alone knows what works and what doesnt, i would suggest seeking a second opinion. now for my situation 3 years later: Still depressed and anxious :(

[@milliewarner8911]

Tansell Ziggy-Zig I'm going to, I desperately need something else.

[@tommoconstantly]

Im Now on Fluoxetine too 20mg

[@crashnburn240]

I am so glad that someone said it i was depressed for a good portion of my life and i will always sympathize

[@IdRatherbeDeaddd]

where was this video filmed?

[@gugahl]

Thank you Greg James for making it your Record of the Week. It made me love them even more.

[@CaseFace5]

Something I never thought about when they make these slow motion videos is that the singers lips match the track played over it... do they have to sing in slow motion when filming the video? lol

[@paulgerald1619]

Ive always wondered this to but i thought that the video was recorded normal but the song was played faster so when they slowed the whole thing down the video would be slow Mo and the song would then be played at its normal speed. if you find out the answer let me know.

[@fionaWhatever]

they actually have to sing faster , so when they put it in slow motion the lip movements will match the lyrics. if you know troye sivan - he once did a 'behind the scenes' of filming a music video and there he said it :D and i guess every musician does it the same way in music videos ^^

[@paulgerald1619]

fionaWhatever Ahhh cool. Cheers!

[@RosaLouise123]

oh yessss.some more Liverpudlian talent that is what I am talking about!!

[@deanishcampbell3425]

When you can relate to a song that up until now you had no idea what it was on about. kinda cool but not for a good reason :/

[@IsbyIsNotAmused]

this is just gorgeous.

[@graicgabtar9369]

Uncanny description of life under that class of drug.

[@MrPenny1956]

Such a beautiful song, sad in meaning but happy in portrayal

[@devilsrfun]

This is filmed in the same place as Rella - Hodgy, Domo Genesis And Tyler, The Creator

[@masontalbot292]

Is it really!?!! Where did you get that

[@audkyrie]

Mason Talbot go look at rella

[@rileyherbert4657]

love u wombats

[@deancarter3413]

I used to be someone's anti-d but she stopped the prescription and now i need an anti-I but I haven't got one so yeah...

[@MrDiache]

I'm in your situation lol

[@ibelieve8868]

Hope that your anti-I became a self anti-D with time :)

[@Izzietheawesome]

This song is beautiful. I started crying. I'm deeply impressed with them, didn't expect them to be this great.. The Wombats are my idols and i look up to them :)

[@mollyg2949]

wish i could get anti-d that easy :/ cant even get a therapist atm

[@structureOG]

this song says a lot about music... more importantly about what music should be!

[@hinowisaybye]

Am I the only one who thinks he looks like Steven Fry?

[@pussinchucks]

every new single is great, i'm so addicted to tokyo, jump into the fog and now to this one... i want the album!

[@tracey7209]

[@maryjune001]

The video just made the song ten times better...and the song's already absolutely perfect to begin with

[@bethdegand]

I love these guys. The first song I heard from them was "jump in to the fog." Been a fan since!

[@evanescencerawks]

i'm usually not very fond of The Wombats music, but they really did pull it out the bag with this one, the music is very uplifting imo, gorgeous song, almost anthemic.

[@JaimeClements-z4v]

I suffer from depression and this song needs playing out loud

[@maryjune001]

Best song of all time. Of ALL TIME. Best video too. God I love The Wombats

[@Mrfreshcucumber]

I saw the Wombats live at lounge on the farm in Canterbury. IT WAS BLOODY AMAZING!!!!

[@chloeeeeee1995]

Their best song yet !!!

[@Thebunkable]

Chillin in my bed with the above song blasting out of the speakers!! Serenity foah chizzle

[@liamroberts7238]

This song is my favourite from the Wombats.

[@TheMCRzombie]

This song is a life saver...

[@MrGiacominoPagina]

[@RubyRighteous]

This song live, amazing. Just, amazing.

[@martinc10]

love it. can't wait to see them next week at newcastle

[@JotheFoe]

I've always loved this song. Last night I took my last Citalopram after weaning off it. There's no shame in taking them folks, but don't be scared to come off it. There are great things in life to make you feel, including music.

[@RosaLouise123]

Will DEFO be watching them on the Big weekend footage tomorrow...it's a MUST LEGENDS!

[@irishlad1420]

Such an under-rated band :(, Spread the word of the wombats

[@isabelintheskywith]

Can't wait till the album comes out!
