I was petting my cat during this video and his purring was perfectly synchronized with the purring in the beginning. From this I have concluded that he is Little Fang.
there are a few lyrics of this song that always cheer me up when i'm down. "Could have been anything, but it's right that you're you" is just such a sweet lyric "Your makers must have kissed in cosmic dust" is just beautiful
I love this song and it brings me to tears every time I hear it, because it speaks to me so perfectly, like how "the melody sings what the words can't say" Its telling me how despite how strange and odd I am, despite my mental disability, and when bad things happen. Its only my job to be me, the world is bad but I have to go to my own beat, and that is really good advice. Every time im feeling down or sad, or like a bad person I put this on. Because it tells me im me, im not bad, im myself no matter the situation and that's the greatest thing I can be
LITTLE FANG LYRICS You’re something special Want you to know you are Your makers must have kissed in cosmic dust You’re something special You’ve got to know its true Could have been anything, but it's right that you're you You’re something special You’ve got to shout it out If there are doubts then we will groove it out You’re something special You are the little fang You keep on grinning And this world keeps nagging And if ever starts to feel bad little fang It’s easy to explain cuz this world’s not tame And if it ever starts to feel sad little fang Remember that your gifts are your game And if it ever starts to pour down little fang The melody sings what the words can't say But they might laugh and they might be scared Of the one little fang with the trikes in her hair With the spikes in her hair With the trikes in her hair Hey mrs. creepy head Hey mr. fuzzy face Go mash your teeth again You’re in the right place u’re something special Full moon you'll have no doubt Just let the astral music root you out You’re something special Don’t hide your wolven face You keep on creepin let the night be scary You’re something special We all will sing your name Embrace your darkness never be ashamed You’re something special To be a little fang You keep on spinning And this world keeps nag nag nagging And if ever starts to feel bad little fang It’s easy to explain cuz this world’s not tame And if it ever starts to feel sad little fang Remember that your gifts are your game And if it ever starts to pour down little fang The melody sings what the words can't say But they might laugh and they might be scared Of the one little fang with the trikes in her hair With the spikes in her hair With the trikes in her hair You’re always crashing into teeth (x8)
Does no one understand that the video is talking about what the songs about? “Embrace your darkness, never be ashamed?” It’s supposed to be weird because the song is about showing your weird side and being proud of it. Just let the astral music root you out!
I first watched this video at least 5 years ago, and I’ve been trying to find it again for almost as long. All I could remember is that it was a music video with a cute little puppet creature who rode a carousel at a carnival, and the name of the song was the name of the cute creature. After years of periodically playing word association in the youtube search bar, I’ve finally found it again! :D
Avey Tare's voice is extremely versatile; it's awesome to hear him over a fluid pop beat.The video is pretty neat too; it fits well with the song carrying a goofy Scooby Doo vibe to it. can't wait for an album of theirs.
Ugh, this song is so wholsome. I've shown my little sisters this song so much. I don't think they fully appreciate it yet, but I hope they know how special they are. If those little darlings ever doubt themselves, i want them to know that they should just always be themselves. That is the best part of them, after all! Love my little fangs!
Considering this song is about accepting your bizarre, dark side I find the comments to be a little strange. "i lyke dis song but yo wtf is dis video lol" It's about the exact opposite sentiment of your comment, actually.
I remember listening to this song for the first time. I still think about it every now and then and listen to it. I love the deeper message that Avery is trying to send. Don't worry about being yourself, you are special just by being you! Don't take negative judgment as facts, what people say doesn't make you any less special 💖🦊
This song and video never fails to make me feel better. I'm from a family who loves to express their differences and have a very similar gothic style as this video implies! My parents love dark stuff that tend to scare most people and therefore I do too, but I express more of my pastel side. Love these guys so much!
I know this song was made around 9 years ago but I listen to this song every single day. It is my all time favorite song and the best song I've ever listened to. For the past few years Little Fang has been my number 1 most listened song on Spotify. I listen to Little Fang whenever life sucks so I just wanted to say thank you for making this.
All i can say is this music found me at just the right time. its uncanny how much i can draw parralells to my current life experiences and emotions. Im just thinking of getting on the road and driving for the first time and im finally seeing my decisions and surrounds from another perspective. in other words i feel myself maturing as i get deeper into this music. all of ancos work is profoundly linked to this stage of my life and i wouldn't have it any other way. idk if anyone can relate at all i know this anco era is years old already but its all brand new for me...
Agreed, I discovered them this year (2021) and hated them for the longest time until they grew on me (like they did for most people into them), I feel I can really connect to them as someone struggling with anxiety and especially with ADHD, their music really reminds me of my ADHD for some reason
Lyrics at 1:45 love it! And if it ever starts feeling bad lit-tle fang it's easy to explain cuz this worlds not tame And if it ever starts to feel sad lit-tle fang Remember that your gifts are your game And if it ever starts to pour down lit-tle fang The melody sings what the words can't say But they might laugh and they might be scared of the one little fang with the trikes in her hair With the spikes in her hair
My dad loves animal collective. He showed me this song and it reminds me so much of how my parents raised me, it just fits really well that the person who treated me like this showed it to me
This is the first time I’ve watched the video. It’s 5 am. I woke up from my nightmare. I listened to this song so much because it’s a bop, but it actually turned into my nightmare. And now this video is really the cherry on top.
I read somewhere that these guys wanted to recreate 'Monster Mash'. After thinking about it for a while, I can think of no higher musical goal than that. The world needs things like this, more now than ever!
I absolutely love this song. I had no clue what the music video was like before this, and watching it made no difference. Granted, it is a bit strange, but the song and purpose is beautiful nonetheless.
So I got this album several weeks ago. I absolutely adore this track, but the rest of the album turns me off. I understand that a lot of the tracks are supposed to "grow" on you after multiple listens. I know this because I listen to Animal Collective daily (Strawberry Jam, Feels and Centipede Hz especially). Long story short: what are some of the highlights of "Enter the Slasher House"?
Quite the opposite for me, I loved the whole thing from the first listen. But I suppose my general collection for all things Animal Collective just carried over to this album. That said, I realise that I'm in the minority, and for many people this would be an acquired taste. All I would say is give it a chance, and maybe it will grow on you with repeated listening. To answer your question, along with this track, the other standouts for me are "Modern Days E" (personal favourite track on the album) and the opening track, "A Sender".
Fancy meeting you here haha. I am really looking forward to Deakins solo career. Sleep cycles is amazing! I'm really tempted to buy his vegan shoes that include a cassette tape of an unreleased song.
Vegan MasterRace Hey, what's up lol! Small world. Yeah, i'm very confident that Deakin will actually make good solo music on par with Panda Bear's. At least Tomboy quality albums from him. Sleep cycles was REALLY good I was surprised. And yeah, I heard about his shoes! Pretty cool! Don't know why they're vegan though. Can't tell if AnCo is vegan or what. It's cool if Deakin turns out to be vegan.
can't believe the lady from Dirty Projectors sings on "The Outlaw"...... and other tracks....she was like my favorite voice of DIRTY PROJECTORS! this avey tare band is sooooooooo good. i love it.
Am I the only one who finds this song incredibly catchy and always randomlly popping up in my head? lol
I haven't listened to this song for a few months and still had it coming back to my head. now I'm here listening to it again
No you're not, xd
Nope
This is still happening to me lmao
woah11ify nope! I freaking love this song!
I was petting my cat during this video and his purring was perfectly synchronized with the purring in the beginning. From this I have concluded that he is Little Fang.
Pet the kitty!
You were just high
Nothing has ever resonated with me more than the little cat puppet. thank you Little Fang
nice pfp
I didn't even realize ot was a cat until you said it 😂 I thought it was a wolf pup!
i love ajj
Its the exact opposite of videos where there is a sinister undertone to something otherwise innocent.
so it's got an innocent undertone to something otherwise sinister?
YUPPO
do you like me interpretation chu fuckin wankaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Nathaniel Bauer this should be top comment
Little Horn Jr.
I’ve always wondered why the puppet is so charming, and I found out recently that the Jim Henson Creature Shop fabricated it! 💖
Thanks for sharing, that's awesome to hear!
YOOO THAT'S WHY IT LOOKS SO FAMILIAR
there are a few lyrics of this song that always cheer me up when i'm down.
"Could have been anything, but it's right that you're you" is just such a sweet lyric
"Your makers must have kissed in cosmic dust" is just beautiful
I love this song and it brings me to tears every time I hear it,
because it speaks to me so perfectly, like how "the melody sings what the words can't say"
Its telling me how despite how strange and odd I am, despite my mental disability, and when bad things happen. Its only my job to be me, the world is bad but I have to go to my own beat, and that is really good advice.
Every time im feeling down or sad, or like a bad person I put this on. Because it tells me im me, im not bad, im myself no matter the situation and that's the greatest thing I can be
Klazocloniac 💙💙💙💙💙 love u
❤️❤️❤️
That's a great way to look at it
i listen to this when i’m feeling extra autistic in an allistic world
now I want to be a tiny cat puppet in a clown costume too
Im so happy for that cat!! look at her, she found her people!! I love this song
LITTLE FANG LYRICS
You’re something special
Want you to know you are
Your makers must have kissed in cosmic dust
You’re something special
You’ve got to know its true
Could have been anything, but it's right that you're you
You’re something special
You’ve got to shout it out
If there are doubts then we will groove it out
You’re something special
You are the little fang
You keep on grinning
And this world keeps nagging
And if ever starts to feel bad little fang
It’s easy to explain cuz this world’s not tame
And if it ever starts to feel sad little fang
Remember that your gifts are your game
And if it ever starts to pour down little fang
The melody sings what the words can't say
But they might laugh and they might be scared
Of the one little fang with the trikes in her hair
With the spikes in her hair
With the trikes in her hair
Hey mrs. creepy head
Hey mr. fuzzy face
Go mash your teeth again
You’re in the right place
u’re something special
Full moon you'll have no doubt
Just let the astral music root you out
You’re something special
Don’t hide your wolven face
You keep on creepin let the night be scary
You’re something special
We all will sing your name
Embrace your darkness never be ashamed
You’re something special
To be a little fang
You keep on spinning
And this world keeps nag nag nagging
And if ever starts to feel bad little fang
It’s easy to explain cuz this world’s not tame
And if it ever starts to feel sad little fang
Remember that your gifts are your game
And if it ever starts to pour down little fang
The melody sings what the words can't say
But they might laugh and they might be scared
Of the one little fang with the trikes in her hair
With the spikes in her hair
With the trikes in her hair
You’re always crashing into teeth (x8)
Jeza Bel oh thank youuuu!!!!!!
Nic6y θλ
It's "Go gnash your teeth again"
And "You're always gnashing your teeth"
Its "Your gifts are your gain" not "Your gifts are your game
Incredibly simple yet creative imaginative and poignant lyrics.
Does no one understand that the video is talking about what the songs about? “Embrace your darkness, never be ashamed?” It’s supposed to be weird because the song is about showing your weird side and being proud of it.
Just let the astral music root you out!

I'm glad you found it again, one of my favorite songs
Avey Tare's voice is extremely versatile; it's awesome to hear him over a fluid pop beat.The video is pretty neat too; it fits well with the song carrying a goofy Scooby Doo vibe to it. can't wait for an album of theirs.
this is...quite the music video
+Goofy Goober Awesome music, weird ass videos
o hey its you
Yea...
The music video reminds me of the psychosis I experience
Ugh, this song is so wholsome. I've shown my little sisters this song so much. I don't think they fully appreciate it yet, but I hope they know how special they are. If those little darlings ever doubt themselves, i want them to know that they should just always be themselves. That is the best part of them, after all! Love my little fangs!
Considering this song is about accepting your bizarre, dark side I find the comments to be a little strange.
"i lyke dis song but yo wtf is dis video lol"
It's about the exact opposite sentiment of your comment, actually.
Jayfeather isn't a furry...
lol. the song fits him perfectly.
I get a Of Montreal vibe from this song
How is the meaning of the song the exact opposite of that supposed comment? I don't see that.
Missy Stephenson ok furry
I remember listening to this song for the first time. I still think about it every now and then and listen to it. I love the deeper message that Avery is trying to send. Don't worry about being yourself, you are special just by being you! Don't take negative judgment as facts, what people say doesn't make you any less special 💖🦊
This is my fav song of all time, can not believe that its been 10 years.
I can't stand how much I love this beautiful creepy silly strange wonderful video
Not at all surprised at how weird the video is.
This is such a cute song.
lol. added this to woahtunes
I Love this..
Its creepy ..
And the animal is cute..
Smol Eared Alyssa the animal is a cat its so cute
Smol Eared Alyssa OMG I COMMENTED THIS 3 YEARS AGO HI ITS U FROM THE FUTUrE LMAO
Yes!!
ross lynch hi it’s you again but on the same account a year later 😎
Yo it's me again bro
This song and this video are amazing, and Little Fang is freakin' adorablez.
My Little Fang passed today. Bless your beautiful face Yoshimi.
these boys are so ahead of their time
i really love this song... the lyrics make me feel comfortable and always reassure me that i am me and its okay :)
I named my Dog Little Fang after this song.
He’s 7 now. Glad I still ❤️ This track so hard to this day. I sing it to him all the time!
Just remember that it's little fang, that's very cute to name your dog that :)
This song and video never fails to make me feel better. I'm from a family who loves to express their differences and have a very similar gothic style as this video implies! My parents love dark stuff that tend to scare most people and therefore I do too, but I express more of my pastel side. Love these guys so much!
I sing this song to one of my beagle pups almost every day lol she is our little fang
This song is so important to me!! it's really helped me and become a huge comfort
I know this song was made around 9 years ago but I listen to this song every single day. It is my all time favorite song and the best song I've ever listened to. For the past few years Little Fang has been my number 1 most listened song on Spotify. I listen to Little Fang whenever life sucks so I just wanted to say thank you for making this.
💙🦷
This video... is both scary and awesome at the same time.
I agree
+Silverstar Art the begining holy :D
this video makes me so happy
it means so much to me. hopefully it still does to you
i played one of the clowns in this vid!!
Can u give a time stamp?
Then can you explain what the heck this is??
Which one clown are you please describe
im skeptical
We demand answers
This one wasn't easy for me to digest at first, but I think it might be Avey Tare's best song, even with his recent stuff, which I adore.
rediscovering this just made my day
Time to rediscover it again
SUCH CHILL AVEY VOCALS
I think 2:23 of this might be from 2:20 Flip The Frog in Spooks 1932 "I don't like dark meat" :D
This song is such a spring song
Little Fang sounds like the perfect name for a house cat, but it also sounds like the name of a character from the Warriors books
IT DOES SOUND LIKE A WARRIOR CAT CHARACTER
All i can say is this music found me at just the right time. its uncanny how much i can draw parralells to my current life experiences and emotions. Im just thinking of getting on the road and driving for the first time and im finally seeing my decisions and surrounds from another perspective. in other words i feel myself maturing as i get deeper into this music. all of ancos work is profoundly linked to this stage of my life and i wouldn't have it any other way. idk if anyone can relate at all i know this anco era is years old already but its all brand new for me...
Agreed, I discovered them this year (2021) and hated them for the longest time until they grew on me (like they did for most people into them), I feel I can really connect to them as someone struggling with anxiety and especially with ADHD, their music really reminds me of my ADHD for some reason
First you don't like it, then it grows and grows until you can't stop listening.
Everytime the same trick with him, everytime it amazes me.
I never disliked it
Avey, you're something special. You know it's true. Also children's puppet show characters are haunted by there semi-human ghosts of their past? Huh?
What a sampling master with that intro
Lyrics at 1:45 love it!
And if it ever starts feeling bad lit-tle fang
it's easy to explain cuz this worlds not tame
And if it ever starts to feel sad lit-tle fang
Remember that your gifts are your game
And if it ever starts to pour down lit-tle fang
The melody sings what the words can't say
But they might laugh and they might be scared
of the one little fang with the trikes in her hair
With the spikes in her hair
best music video to ever exist i grew up with this 💗💗💗💗💗💗
My dad loves animal collective. He showed me this song and it reminds me so much of how my parents raised me, it just fits really well that the person who treated me like this showed it to me
W AnCo parent
That puppet is SO CUUUUUUUTE!!!!
This music video is something special
This song means so much to me
This freaky music video made it even more special
This is the first time I’ve watched the video. It’s 5 am. I woke up from my nightmare. I listened to this song so much because it’s a bop, but it actually turned into my nightmare. And now this video is really the cherry on top.
It has taken me about 3 years to find this my life is at peace now
Come back to it
adorable in a twisted sort of way... i love it
this video scared me at first but now it just makes me smile
I love how Avey's sister (the director) is just as weird as her brother :P
I am in awe of everything about this song and video!! I live here on a daily basis…😻
This song is such a freaking jam, I love it
one of the only videos on youtube best viewed at 240p
omg its even better in 144
Good job with this single, Avey Tare.
the bass in the whole album is so vibrant.
THIS WAS THE BIGGEST REVELATION IN HUMAN HISTORY
This is one of those songs that makes the difference in feeling like a TOTAL freak, and just a freak.
.......
....thank you,
....it..,it's.....It's...., exactly what i needed......!!!!
i luuuuuuuv dis song, found it on itunes randomly and fell in luuuuuuuuuuv
Please open your mind. This is so creative and is very cool. Yes, it is a bit scary but otherwise positive. Plus the cat is so kawii😍
YAAASSS
Siiiussss
Well, it’s about accepting that you have a bizarre dark side and you can’t stop it from saying something but you can ignore it:
THIS IS THE GRAMMAR POLICE HANDS UP GET ON THE GROUND YOUR UNDER ARREST FOR HORRIBLE GRAMMAR, ON THE FUCKING GROUND.
I don’t know what in the hell is going on but ho boy how it makes me happy

THANK YOU
When listening to late at night or really early in the morning....magic, and a sort of sad calming feeling.
I read somewhere that these guys wanted to recreate 'Monster Mash'.
After thinking about it for a while, I can think of no higher musical goal than that. The world needs things like this, more now than ever!
The "You're something special" line with the two voices kind of gives me that feeling
This is a good piece from Avey. He seems like the type of guy that would make a solo album like Panda Bear.
the anthem
Can't believe this came out almost 5 years ago already
Ha, always loved this song but went looking for the video bc I keep singing this to my void kitten when she yawns
i love everything about this video sososososo much omg
besides how awesome the song is already, when you stop and pay attention to the bassline it is so fucking sexy
agreed
i heard this song before seeing the video and i have to say it makes me happier to see its about a cat
Cool, nice, I like it, sure, good, spooky, entertaining, gave me chills, interesting. Thank you for your time.
So cute! I wish I could dance with the Little Fang!
I absolutely love this song. I had no clue what the music video was like before this, and watching it made no difference. Granted, it is a bit strange, but the song and purpose is beautiful nonetheless.
I'm here because Avey Tare makes great music!
So I got this album several weeks ago. I absolutely adore this track, but the rest of the album turns me off. I understand that a lot of the tracks are supposed to "grow" on you after multiple listens. I know this because I listen to Animal Collective daily (Strawberry Jam, Feels and Centipede Hz especially). Long story short: what are some of the highlights of "Enter the Slasher House"?
just this song
Bwahaha. I agree.
For me, this, A Sender and maybe That It Wont Grow.
Quite the opposite for me, I loved the whole thing from the first listen. But I suppose my general collection for all things Animal Collective just carried over to this album.
That said, I realise that I'm in the minority, and for many people this would be an acquired taste. All I would say is give it a chance, and maybe it will grow on you with repeated listening.
To answer your question, along with this track, the other standouts for me are "Modern Days E" (personal favourite track on the album) and the opening track, "A Sender".
Thanks. That's exactly the type of feedback I was asking for.
I always imagined this song with Avey as a children's TV presenter surrounded by puppets. This song just screams puppets.
I wonder what it's like watching this when you're high.
It's intense but in a good way. It makes you feel happy
timruneskate96 I guess I know now, seems pretty cool!
+CrimsonPanther I'm high right now and I'm distracted by the comments section.
Andrew Ryan lol
The sound exudes my pain.
The melody sings what the words can't say.
Don't kill me guys... But what's Bunny? xD
Bunny is the name of a youtuber also known as grav3yardgirl. she mentioned this song in one of her videos
She is a really popular RUclipsr
Grav3yardgirl on RUclips. She posted a link to this in one of her videos cos it's her favorite song.
Thanks guys!!
how is this a throwback now
Even bigger throwback now
PEAK
AAA!! IT'S BACK AGAIN !!! ;W; I love that little puppet so much she's a cute puppet ❤❤
Just listened to this album. Only good song on the album and it's amazing.
+Gilbertify Haha so true
uzioxix Haha right? It's a shame. Avey doesn't have a great solo career.
really ? I personally loved the album, I loved that it won't grow. but this song sounds super different from the rest of the album
Fancy meeting you here haha.
I am really looking forward to Deakins solo career. Sleep cycles is amazing! I'm really tempted to buy his vegan shoes that include a cassette tape of an unreleased song.
Vegan MasterRace Hey, what's up lol! Small world.
Yeah, i'm very confident that Deakin will actually make good solo music on par with Panda Bear's. At least Tomboy quality albums from him. Sleep cycles was REALLY good I was surprised.
And yeah, I heard about his shoes! Pretty cool! Don't know why they're vegan though. Can't tell if AnCo is vegan or what. It's cool if Deakin turns out to be vegan.
This song is just amazing, it's just so upbeat you can not have a bad day when you start off you day listening to it... also very cool video
I came here on my own.
what do they say at 2:24? the distorted voice?
**quietly fades into the tiny crowd of people that knows this song from the Jayfeather MAP**
You're not alone, bro.
Same here!
*also phases into crowd*
sameeeeee
same
i discovered this song when i was 14'years old and now in 2017 still listening . great tune.
Someone said my music sounded like early Animal Collective, So I came here to give a listen. I'm not sure I get the comparison, but I like your music.
Early animal collective is like Feels (2005) and Spirit (2000) this is like 2014.
Your scammers song sounds more like dan deacon than anything lol
@@brandonme thanks now I will listen to Dan Deacon
BCS ITS MADE BY THE SAME PERSON WHO MADE THE EARLY WORKS
but still it sounds more like centipede hz than the early work
can't believe the lady from Dirty Projectors sings on "The Outlaw"...... and other tracks....she was like my favorite voice of DIRTY PROJECTORS! this avey tare band is sooooooooo good. i love it.
this is his most popular song.
this song + this vid = oh sweet jeebus it's amazing
avey tare does no wrong! love the song, just wondering is little fang a cat?
Yup! Dave said in an interview that he has a cat with fangs that stick out so he wrote a song for it in case it felt self-conscious, lol
obrigado isa
this sounds like a jack stauber song
