Anybody else here feel a sense of immense happiness/euphoria and at the same time a sense of melancholy and longing for the past and something now gone from your life.... when you listen to The Magnetic Fields? This song does just that to me. It's so unique
BohemianAsh Absolutely.
+BohemianAsh sometimes i feel bad about stephin merritt since almost all his songs are like that; but i don´t really know if that is good. the thing i know is that every time i don´t want to feel alone i listen to it
+BohemianAsh Yeah. I agree 100%.
this song is horrifically depressing.
that being said, yes I understand that feeling.
saudade is the word.
"Like the mating call of sarcastic sharks" is the best quip I've heard in a long time.
What does the line mean? I can't get my head around it
He feels attacked
@@mview4843 I think its a criticism of bar/dating culture
One of the best lines written ever. EVER.
Every time I listen to this song I only wish it was longer.
"Who will pay the rent" - Wow... that line did it. If you've been in this situation before, you totally understand this on so many levels.
😭
The woman in the video looks like Lillian Gish, with the same silent-film acting expressiveness. Lovely.
(I can't believe this video is 12 years old, seems like it came out yesterday. But it pushed me further to explore The Magnetic Fields, and what a rich musical treasure trove that is. Merritt is a genius.)
its a great song live too shirley is a treasure
Magnetic Fields are incredible- the art
Oh and the quality is stellar. It gets better and better each time they release one. I hope they continue to feed our needy ears for as long as they can allow it. -3
Amazing what she can convey without saying a word.
This video needs more views. Such a good song.
that woman looks like a granny and a little girl simultaneously. She should be in some more motion pictures.
it is called: to be a scrawny waif
It is an acquired taste for few
Many suffer by guys quitting after a while and running away with the voluptuous and fully assertive femmes. Jocks!
It totally does have something to do with the song. I see it as two people 'put in the trash' or 'thrown out' by others and they meet each other. Like 'one mans trash is another mans treasure.'
This song is perfect for me to relate to im so glad the person who wrote this song did.
A beautiful piece of art
that was really cute.
and about the "mismatched" themes, i think it works fine. i guess you could say its the aftermath of the song being played out over it. every end is a new beginning.
Brilliant remark!!!
This song is so fucking rad The Magnetic Fields have done it yet again!!!
This is so adorably Disney-esque.
I think it’s meant to emulate Beckett’s play Endgame
Fantastic video and song! Thanks Neil Gaiman for the tip.
This is one of my absolute, favorite songs
You better think of something quick before I don't love you no more
Quick! Before I walk out that door
Quick! Before it all ends in jeers
What a waste of all those beers
You better think of something quick because my suitcase is packed
Quick! Because I'm through being attacked
Are you really prepared to lose
All this just to air your views?
We're on the brink of something
Get me a drink of something
Quick! Between your outrageous remarks
Like the mating calls of sarcastic sharks
Quick! Before you can't take that back
Just before it all goes black
You better think of something quick before the midnight bell chimes
You're living in dangerous times
Torture me for your amusement
About who will pay the rent
Who will pay the rent
Who will pay the rent
Who will pay the rent
Who will pay the rent
Who will pay the rent
Torture me for your amusement
Ah, but who will pay the rent? *
It's written in the digital booklet that way.
Conclusion: Bin-people are adorable!
Beautiful song.
This video is a ridiculous amount of adorable. I think I'll watch it again, thank you.

So this is how Oscar the Grouch fell in love.
Eu com 15 anos assistia sempre esse video 💙
P.S. Who cares that the video has nothing to do with the song they are both AMAZING!!!
"mating calls of sarcastic sharks"
Lovely
The Magnetic Fields - Quick! ♥♥
Great video of a great song :)
Brilliant.
Saludos desde Monte Grande, Argentina!
Naww, what an adorable video! I wish I had that girl's eyes. So blue and pretty.
This is completely beautiful. x
This is a beautiful video.
That's exactly what I thought. "Endgame" is my favourite play, and all I could think of when watching the video.
love it best vid 2012
This song, is the better
this is a 10 out if 10 . I pray future people can acheive this
holy shit I love this video
fantastic
This flipped my switches!
Gravitas!
What happens when people who watched Sesame Street grew up and majored in art.
Brilliant work!
Dirk Disco approves.
Dive into an exclusive interview with Binance's CEO for a peek into future developments
me too. I think I might have seen her modelling something.. i think maybe aqualungs or some sort of diving gear?
Slick video!
pffff, more like bin-girl = perfect :) and very awesome song.
The girls is so pretty/cute.
I came, I listen, I found it twisted ? Time to cook ! Watch #Chefs videos !
aaaaameeei s2'
adorable
Aloha, Jin!
kewl
Anyone feel a little Samuel Beckett-y watching this? Endgame, for real!
the mating calls of sarcastic sharks...
Ballad of Oscar the Grouch
this is so CUTE
Bin-boy is cute!!
I find it odd the video is about two people finding each other and falling in love, but the song is about losing love. seems like director didnt even listen to the song.
I think I figured this video out... They're in the garbage cans cuz they're, well, let's just say they're unique people who have a hard time finding others that understand them. The singer is basically threatening somebody with leaving. "Torture me for your amusement, Ah, But who will pay the rent?" threatening loneliness, "who else will love you?" So, anyways, it seems after all those wasted years, the cooky-eyed blond found a good-looking bobble head that intends well but isn't too bright.
this is so weird but i love it
i can't help imaging that they were characters from sesame street
I think her name is Elizabeth Webster as referred in the description...
You guys should check this out on Hanus.Tv!
holaaa, alguno sabe los acordes de este tema??
Where are these?!Q
Haha Becket's Endgame vibes
Then they clanked.
does anybody know who the bin girl is?
can someone explain the video to me lol...i love this song the magnetic fields are amazing
That's a really roomy dustbin I wonder what the rent is like
This is one of the most fun songs on my playlist! Weird video, though. I don't get it.
LOL!
Dang cliffhangers.
conservative political advert before a magnetic fields song is the definition of irony
you re right, i didn t check the description...but still i m not able to find her with that name...maybe it s wrong, or maybe she s just not famous...
8 people were not quick enough.
Well, I think you should know who she is by that hint... :D
Cutie. Oscar girl and Oscar boy.
Wha happened thes funy cvers:(
i like freaky people
creepy enough make me see this video number of times
i love the song ... but i dont understand this video
music can turn out so kick ass. too bad for all the musical spam in the world.
Well the guy in the trash can isn't going to pay the rent!!!!! What is this the trailer of the prequel to the Oscar The Grouch blockbuster this summer??
