PHANTOGRAM - Running From The Cops

- The video takes place on a boring street corner in interior Brooklyn. A man walks and as he does, the color disappears from the frame. Next a hipster wearing light blue (cyan) walks out. He is our protagonist, and his shirt that says PHANTOGRAM is the only color we see. He notices a dog on the corner and he starts whistling at it. At that moment, three people with wearing medical masks come flying by, running like it's the end of the world. The hipster freaks out, and decides to rescue the little dog and take off running too. Next a sexy police woman comes into frame and gives chase to the crowd. The hipster wearing the PHANTOGRAM shirt is scared for his life. As we watch
we think, "Oh I get it, the song is called 'Running From The Cops'", but there is only one cop, not plural cops. Well, here in brooklyn, cops = pigs. So the next character to come
out is a freak with a pig nose, dressed in all pink, carrying a bottle of swine flu. He looks angry and like he wants to raise hell. This explains why the people in the beginning were wearing medical masks, as he's spraying the swine flu everywhere. Even the cop is running from because swine flu kills 'pigs'. His pink outfit is the only other color featured prominently in the video. His pink (magenta) and the hipster's blue(cyan) represent the two colors needed to make a PHANTOGRAM (like 3D images), so it has
a tie in to the band name as well. As he chases the crowd, he wipes the frame, and the color returns to the image. All of the chaos has disappeared and it is once again a
boring Brooklyn street corner. Those 'dreams they never come true'. ---------- Naje Lataillade [Video Director | www.thenaje.com]

so much love for these guys. I cant stop spinning eyelid movies. one banger after another.
This one time I smoked some chronic Wax cannabis and literally my eye balls were spinning like googly-like. You know as if they were trying to relax from everything that's going on. So be careful out there in the UK, it's ed banger music, right?
literally
LET'S GIVE SOME LOVE IN 2023!!! I saw Phantogram at 9:30 club in D.C. 2013. LIFE WILL NEVER BE THE SAME.
Badass
I cannot stop listening! I love Phantogram! ❤
Absolutely awesome song, can't stop playing it!! Also, if she was chasing me id be running towards her ❤
Radio stations need to play this group on the radio. It is sad no one knows this talented group. RADIO STATIONS PLAY THEM! This group is awesome. They are on a small record label with no notariety. This group needs support. AWESOME GROUP. They have another song called "When I'm Small" which is just as awesome or even better this this song. GREAT BAND. KEEP UP THE EXCELLENT MUSIC!!! :)
This is one of the best new bands I've heard in years....this is some dope shiznit.
That's one cop I would not be running from :)
I LOVE these guys, very creative, danceable music!!
Still playing the shit out of this in late 2019
The awesome thing is this vid prob only too k like 2 mins to film but since they slowed it down' it made it song length. I don't know why that's so awesome to me.
Came here because Phantogram hasn't released anything new in a couple years but hey, this song still is gram yo
They're releasing a new album soon. That's why I'm here, anyway.
I loved Sarah's halloween custome, LOL
This Duo is awesome They should he HUGE. I think they are ahead of their time.
I recently found this album. This video is hilarious and awesome. Good stuff still coming out of LA (Phantogram). I love it!
Facemasks = Phantogram predicted Covid-19
Guy in pink was representing swine flu
Exactly! That’s what I thought.. WTF?!
Came here for this was not disappointed
Never worn one in my life 👌
Phantogram of the Opera!
Simple video, awesome outcome
I just saw them with Minus the Bear, too. Both were really good.
Maybe my favorite of theirs
All I can say is this song is cool. I love this group.
Cranberries cardigans and massive attack blended in one band
Kills odour better than most.
feel bit Radiohead also
Love this band! The beginning drum beat sounds like a sampling of the drumming from Bjork's, Nattura, with Thom Yorke.
“SWINE FLU” is what his pink T-shirt reads.
Wow, I didn’t realize that!
This song is brilliant! ;)
Mrs. Officer
+J Wood WEE OO WEE OO WEE

For such a simple song this vid just cracks me up.
saw these guys warm up for minus the bear ast night.... best concert of my life
This is so bangin!
Cool vid....very artistic and expressive.
Running in those heels
saw them live yesterday in Saratoga Springs.
Awesome.
this is amazing.
My dreams will never come true
And if they ever ever do
There's never you
I want to implode
I want it to end
And all those old feelings are coming back again
My dreams are haunting my soul
And when I'm driving down the road
I'm not in control
I want to let go
I want to shake hands
With the person that's
Responsible for this master plan
I know I will
I know I can
My dreams will never come true
And if they ever ever do
It's never you
Maybe it's just me, but i Laughed HARD nearly the entire video! If you have ever "done and seen things" in life, i think you'll understand. Hilarious and awesome at the same damn time. PHANTOGRAMS!!!!...Keep Bangin! ; )
this video is amazing
Quality track!
Amazing video!
Slow motion and still no stomach jiggle? Dang...
She isnt human, shes sound made flesh, fear and love her.....
@@gustavofigueroa3873 last one is for me
*shwae.
I saw them in Victoria at Rifflandia. They are totally under-rated.
Love the Dog.
Lol 15 years and I just noticed dude is wearing a phantogram shirt. Maybe I’m losing my mind.
When ever I make a video of running away from something I will play this music in the backround
Very cool video ! I love it !
I love this song. I think the KEXP live version sounds even better than the album version.
Alas, this video reminds me of the official Pixies video for Velouria. I never could stand that video, it seemed like the director phoned it in.
I love snowboarding to this😎
Phantogram's best track, don't @ me
How’d you all know we’d be running away from the cops while wearing masks?😷😳 this is not what I had in mind.. this is not what I had in mind.. I want to shake hands the person that’s responsible for this master plan... this is not what i had in mind..
Right?! I’ve listened to them, for years before corona! Eerie...
That's it. I'm dressing as the guy in pink pans for Halloween
2020 in a nutshell... Wearing masks, running from the cops, black dude in the background wondering WTF?
better than some movies i watched^^
Good to see an original idea
this is very much like radiohead :) good stuff
Hahaha excellent!
Great Album \0/
crazy mind tricks my friend
I dig it!
this is weird, but awesome
Am I the only person who notices that someone might have forgotten their "support gear" before putting on those pink pants? hahaha, well so what if I am.
Oh, I just saw that..haha
Those pink pants IS his support gear. It's all he needs. :-)
i wish i didnt read this comment now i cant unsee it -.-
Kelline Pickett it's literally all I can see.
well you can't show your underwear on tight fitting pants, can you now. women, don't wear a thong when they wear tight pants, then again they don't have a stick and berries, only a camel toe to hide., LOL
MY FAVORITE
Ha! Good for Sarah and Josh...I know these guys they're awesome.
Damn its a meme of 2020 .
Musical geniuses!
this video scarred me for life.
love how the dude in the blue shirt at the start is like, 'THIS IS ALL MY COLOR', and then the dude behind him is like 'whered all the color go?'
Dude it's incredible to me that they sample J.Dilla on those drums sheesh.
Dat pink dude...
ha ha ha this man in pink is very funny !:D
один из самых потешных клипов. из лучших тоже. эта шидевр!
Thank you ( US ) Skins for finding them for us.... US SKINS WILL BE REMEMBER FOREVER!!!!!! THANK YOU SKINS..... WE LOVE YOU AND STILL WISH THERE WAS A SEASON 2.... SKINS FOREVER!!!!
HAHA! The guys in the background are watching that cop like "Daaaaaaaaaaamn!"
Film clip and track 10/10. Where have I been?
hahah nice video
this kind of reminds me of the beastie boys.
Beastie Boys?!?!? Are we hearing the same song???
Lance Daniel the video...vis-a-vis sabotage
I get that vibe too..probably why I am here
+pantheryou reminds me of tweaker
I would say more like a modern day Death in Vegas.
That is one foxy cop!
i wanna rock a Phantogram shirt!
Came for the music. Stayed for the video.
The only weird thing I can't wrap my head around is what's an LA cop doing in Brooklyn? Weird.
those face masks are fitting these days
Reminds me a bit of "Neon Hitch - No Hands (Waka Flocka Cover)", I wonder if it was inspired by this video :D Love 'em both
hypnotic
The genre is trip hop.
Yes please
Hella cool
Buenisimo
theres my car !! the chevy in the beginning
Very good, =D I' M LIKE
yay for the guy in the back smokin a blunt lol
TRIPPY !! And I haven't smoked pot in 30 years. Don't need to with stuff like this ...
WOW I didn't now that a cop could wear high heal boots, and run. Sara, does it so well though. SLOW MO is the best.
Masters of the art of dirty, grindy bass pokin you brains.
the dogs class though
My dreams will never come true. And if they ever ever do, it's never you.
Standard issued cop shoes 😂
I wouldn't run from that hot cop
Letting yourself get arrested for the sake of sexual pleasure is the highest level
like a boss.
The girl in the black dress and jeans runs exactly the way I do when I'm having a dream where I can't run.
just bought the album... imagine youtube never featured videos like this
FUCK THE RIAA!!
