Rip, it's a long road of grief when you lose a brother, You'll get through. Stay strong for him, you got this!

@@GreyerSkiez thank you

COVID is a bit sus ngl (I’m sorry)

Im so sorry for your lose

That guitar riff is something else 😭

Marcou minha vida essa música, ela é para sempre para mim

Absolutely!🎉❤

Why are you everywhere lol

Same

I agree!

You're right

Wang chung- dance hall days

This is literally the first time I’ve ever heard some use “ah ha” moment other then me 😂

Ironically, this song also became their most well known and their biggest hit.

Are you sure about that? I always thought the person saying “dont worry its all gonna be alright” in front of the sheep lining up for the slaughter was supposed to be kinda tongue in cheek?

@@LedZeppeli Yeah, pretty damn sure, considering the lead singer said so in an interview.

Me too rorshach me too

@@LedZeppeli the lead singer wrote this after his two best friends passed away. The sheep being taken to the slaughterhouse is an allusion to that. He wrote this song because he was super depressed and dealing with substance abuse too and in his words he "wanted to just feel good for a day"

XXXEGGACION lmao I did not expect to see you here but nice

K

U right

Fax

It's all good. The sheep were grazing the poppies

So 💯 agreed. That's what first hooked me on this song

🔥🔥🔥🔥

Honestly! Everytime I hear it.. core memories unlocked

Never!!!!

Fucking classic 🎸🤘🏾

This song has 118 million views. It's only criminally good.

@@SmashedTomatoes 1000 miliion its fair

@@expertonmusic100 mil on yt is like 5 billion on Spotify. Everyone knows this song.

You doing alright now man?

@@fordalels yup, bout 3 years busting ass later I've got a decent job, a place to stay, my own car and I'm surrounded by my closest friends. It all floats on~

I hope your new adventure is one you can look back on and smile

Hey Paul "coincidentally", 2 weeks ago I began my own adventure. I guess we'll be floating together!!! The fun thing about adventures is you never know what surprises will come! I hope you are doing better today, and may the winds blow you in the right direction: )))

@@cindydownard trust in your gut always as you move around and you'll be fine. Good luck on your adventures!

Keep fighting dude you got this

Even if things get heavy we'll all float on alright! Keep fighting! Focus on everything good, avoid the news (but do not become ignorant of what is happening, just dont dive deep into any of it). Think of the oceans, the forests, the mountains. Think of spring flowers and their colors and smell! Think of the red and yellow leaves in the fall. Take walks, fall in love with a pet and devote your heart to them. You are an important part of this world!

Hang in here, you are loved you are needed you matter!!! 💞💚💞💚💞

Float on :)

Hey there, I’m right there with ya. Not to much to be happy about lately but this song along with a few others put a small smile on my face because they remind me of a better time. I hope and feel things can and maybe will get better sometime.

God bless you and yours friend.

Awesome!

My wife and I were lucky enough to attend the Wilco Sky Blue Sky Festival in Mexico in late early December , it was beyond words. For some reason theyre skipping it this year 🥲

Every child needs to hear this song for that lyric alone, that and Jimmy Eat World The middle.

Because the one we ended up with is amazing

Dalton Miller They figured it would be too moody for a “happy” show

@@ultimate2018 I think it's great as well but I'm kinda torn as I think this would be really good as well

I'm glad they stuck with the theme song they have. Love this and a classic, but the one they chose was correct 🤘

Well said 🙏🏼

Float on my friend. Float on!! 😞

I'm glad that I got to see the live show .. awesome performance

very hippie of them

For fucking real. I listen to songs that have been on KZfaq almost as long as it's been around. Enter Shikari has a music video that is 18 years old, I was 10 when they released it

They will never experience TRL live, fresh off the school bus!

Yall gotta listen to riptide dude it’s amazing 🤩

In all honesty, the song didn't even make a top 50 showing on the hot 100 charts.

@@johnwhite1321 that's because the "Hot 100" and "Top 50" are based on mostly hip hop and pop. Not punk rock, pop punk, rock, or metal. Your opinion is invalid because unless you're already famous or part of the agenda, you'll never make a list like that in America. Wheatus was SUPER famous in other countries because Americans couldn't get over the fact they mentioned a "gun in school", but 'Pumped Up Kicks' literally talks about shooting other kids and that made it on the Top 100. Stop glorifying people if you can't even figure out the past

You are the BEST ❤️💕💛📣🦋

Absolutely true.

I always feel really good, like almost blissful, right before entering a depressive state for months

I know you certainly can appreciate it more that's for sure float on

Or being in North Carolina in the morning

Yeah but why is that part of the lyrics NOT on the description!!

@@Yueh-et2iv yeah, what's up with that

@@DenpaKei just love that part of the lyrics and thought it shouldn't been left out :"(

Same dude lol I'm in a lockdown do to the Coronavirus and here I am

Same for me actually this song helped me through a dark place

Fjb

IT'S BEEN NINETEEN YEARS 😱

Honestly same, I loved the songs from 2000s -2010s. They felt the most real because they didn’t really use autotune.

That’s becuse your Batman

I always feel like there’s something ominous about it lmao. This is definitely not a happy song for me hahaha

@@enshk79 Yea same can't quite figure out the true meaning of the song but the video makes me think it's sarcastic

I always think of shits I take that float.

@@ge2623 😀

Music Chanimal I take it sarcastically now. I used to interpret it as not having a worry. Now I interpret it as a warning to those pursuing pleasure and escapism. The animal farm and Orwellian theme of the video give me this vibe. The fact that the animals are being led to slaughter while happily matching has this forbidding undertone. I’m not in any way negating your interpretation. I actually came down here to bounce this theory off someone else and you seemed like an open mind to do that with. Granted, I could easily be biased because of my past and my own mess-ups in life. I just wanted to share that idea though. Thanks for reading. :)

​@@DaughtersofOrion That sounds like a pretty good interpretation as well! I didn't expect any actually well-thought out comments to respond to anything I said, let alone a popular song. I haven't been around very much but I understand where you come from, the fact the song is about moving on while the animals slaughtered have nowhere to move onto makes sense in my mind as well. I didn't think about it that way until you brought it up, thanks! It's rare getting a reply that isn't just a blind agreement or disagreement, so thanks!

@@LBFMUSICA Thank you as well! I thought I had it all figured out but your comment got me thinking that I might be biased from my own life experiences. It's always good exchanging ideas! :) thank you! I hope you have a good one!

Wake up and flow through the water of the holy ghost within us all to return to your rightful spot on Rose world set and stop believing in Earth fake reality that you are trapped in by the program of Satan. Earth has been dead for 50000 years now

I see it as we'll all die and "float on" in the end, so take things easy and don't make it worse than it has to be.

Same here one of my favorite songs indeed I just found out I am definitely shocked and saddened by the passing of Jeremiah Green Pisces gang gang

😢😢😢😢

Gang gang

I agree with the sad stuff

Whoa, I'm sorry. Im a bit 2000&late. How did he pass?

take the vax, pay the toll

🕯️🙏❤️

@@JackBaker-kp1rk bullshit

He passed away , no way I haven't listened to this in months I just got nostalgic feeling and came here to jam and now I'm sad

@@michealr734 🕯️🙏

The singer/songwriter wrote this not long after two close friends of his passed away. This song is more of a hopefully reassurance as opposed to a genuine sense of contentment.

This song is about when life gets you down it will get better eventually

To me it meant to be optimistic in life. I listen to it a lot when I'm feeling depressed and rather out of hope.

lizylu it is about death, a very metaphorical song.

The beginning is a stage, symbolic for life being one large play. The sheep are symbolic for not only what is happening consistently in the world (hu-men killing animals) but also represents us as humanity. We are the sheep being fed to the wolves. Although there is nothing wrong with the sheep, that is just the scenario they have been placed under or over (to overstand what is going on rather than understand) They are singing or mouthing we'll all float on signifying their reassurance, then the man takes the sheep and kills them. However we will all float on and everything will be ok. In a way the sheep do not have free will to decide when they die or what happens to them, they are being decided on by the man however it's ironic because the man also does not choose and is part of the system which will eventually do the same to him. It's only sad or bad if you look at it as that way. You could also see it as a beautiful thing because being alive only means you have time to experience. When you die everything comes full circle and there is no time to be had or wasted. Everyone is the way they always were. And that's why we will all float on alright. We will all make it to the end of the tunnel and it's a beautiful thing if you allow yourself to experience it in that way.

Right!

I know right : ( I was in High School when this song came out

Crazy how that works isn’t it?

Yup

Ouch, I did discover this song over a decade ago xD

you were just too young or weren't cool enough when it came out originally

Att 54 too young is out and with over 50,000 bands in the world it is hard not to miss some.

I love this band

I love that feeling

Don’t go down that dark hole, always going to be things trying to drag you down, enjoy the little things in life, tough times produce tough people 😉

I really hope you’re doing better:

Just keep floating on my man, it will get better

damn man, this hit me hard. dont worry, we'll all float on

I feel you bro, but we all float on

Grew up in Indiana so I can relate to the endless sea of grass , float on my brother

That must be why I get those two songs confused all the time. It's not because I'm a dolt.

Guitar riff also sounds somewhat similar...

I love it!

Funfact i listened to that right before i listened to this

I loved both music videos as a kid! I think this fascinating art style definitely explains it.

why did it take you so long??

have you considered modest mouth?

tftm that’s not nothing . I remember being a kid when this came out and I loved watching mtv early in the morning just to watch this video. This is my first time listening to this since then

Especially when Shazam doesn't know it... still waiting to find one of those songs. Someday it'll roll around

tftm ikr

yes

Foobar

yeup

same here

Hahahahahahha yea ikr

Proud of you!

God bless I’ll be praying for ya chief

Its worked for me for a decade. This song has aged well.

Best comment

JAJA

Things have definitely gotten shittier for everyone. The former soviets and the west.

You called it exactly the vibe I got from the video very psychedelic

Can't debunk that. Too true for too many.

right? absolutely >3

May your mom rest in power! Hope shes finding herself in some crazy adventures on the other side over there! I lost my father almost a year ago, I wish u nun but positive healing and abundant energy 💯💞 bless As well, your mom must've been a real special woman if this was her favourite song, idk u, nor your mother or where you live, what u look like, hell i dont even know what your names are. But everytime I hear this song from here on out I assure you'll I'll always think of you two💯💯💯

I'm so sorry, bless her, bless your mom.

It’s ok we’ll all float on ?

Something about the coments here just makes me want to give all you a hug and tell you that you are family and I love you.

Same. I think this could solve road rage lol

God bless you brother, hang in there and keep floatin on.

Keep fighting comrade! Live your life for your friend.

My best friend killed himself too. I know the pain firsthand. You'll learn to cope with this dude, it doesn't get easier, but you'll come to terms with it and realize that life is still beautiful. And that we will all float on no matter what happens.

Im so sorry to hear :'(

My best friend and I always say to each other now "we'll float on" whenever either of us are going through a rough moment now during this crisis.

this song brings back Memories when i needed personally to float on and things will change its funny how certain songs relate to something in our lives rather sad happy etc etc

@toilet paper only thing cringy is your comment

Wizz Da Burrito Boy wait... Did you just roast him(her)?

Damn straight. We’re all gonna float on okay!

This song is special to so many people. Theres just something about it that makes people happy and sad at the same time.

I’m sorry I lost my dad 7 months ago when I was 16 it hurts so much

Lost my almost-son-in-law at 25 yo. It was 11 yrs ago and I still come back and listen to this song he loved. Something very special about it to many.

me to, it lets me know theres sill hope for good music somewhere out there

totaly

bucky468 why are you so pretentious? :/ just let people enjoy what they want

bucky468 everyone has their opinion, but we don't need to hear yours

Then you can keep that to yourself, because there are people who enjoy this genre and songs like this are comforting. Thats like me saying that all rock music sucking suck and should burn in hell. That would be my opinion, and you wouldn't agree with me. You're an adult act like one, and shut your trap. Negativity is a burden to everyone.

yes

Lmao

Yesss!!!

I played it on that as well as Rock Band 2

Sounds a lot like U2 riff

@@whitebathroomguy It does have some U2 vibes there. I'm wondering if U2 was an influence on Modest Mouse.

More like yes it's going to be okay but it's still gonna suck and still gonna hurt but you're going to float right on despite all that.

@@jdbarr769 exactly

It will yo! 🤗🙂

💕💕💕💎🙌🏼✨

This song came out when I was 14 and helped me through some hard shit. Now at 29 they were definitely right. Shit is gonna be hard, but we always float on ❤️

Truth

one of the main delusions in life is that it will never end, all the popular western religions are built around shoring up the delusion that you're somehow going to not stop existing when you die. i think the ego always wants to drift into this fantasy, but you can break through into beautiful moments of pure joy meditating on the fact that in time we will all lose everything we love, get sick, and die. there is no point being upset when these moments are all we ever have

It can also mean that bad stuff will happen and things won't necessarily get better but we'll still be okay despite it a.k.a. it's not the end of the world

Not necessarily a delusion. When you are depressed you always assume that things will never ever get better, even though you know for a fact that tragedies don’t last for ever and one manages to either accept or just forget and keep moving on, so it’s a nice reminder to have modest mouse telling us life does get better. I would say it’s a fact that people usually assume tragedies will last longer than what they actually end up lasting. So it’s good to remind yourself that after some time you’ll float on alright, even though we know we might fall again It is also beneficial to delude yourself and pretend that life always will get better after a tragedies since it gives you strength to fight and move on.

It’s all us humans can do . Help each other

ironic

If only it were so easy. For me this song brings such bittersweet memories that it can induce a major depressive episode. I was choking back tears. Not sure why I thought I could handle it, but it’s been so long since I heard it I definitely didn’t think I’d feel this way either.

Rio, Probably nostalgia man, this type of music brings back memories of much simpler times as a kid, where I enjoyed so much and I wasnt filled with hatred and I didnt have to think a lot. Happy memories, ones youll never see again, really sad

Well actually depression is caused by the absence of dopamine, so It doesn't make much sense for depression to be reduced to atoms

I was looking. For “AnYoNe FrOm AiMkId?” But these stories are better
