Probably one of the most well made and the most important younger sounds ever made. Made an entire 2010s generation including myself. Extreme good vibes and very smart lyrics, certainly an instantaneous classical.
what i dont get, is why ppl in america immediately associate the lyrics with school shootings. its not, whatsoever. its about a singular kid, whos dad loves guns and therefore prob quite aggressive. which means, the kid, who is the singer too right?, so the kid is a mentally unstable one, and this kind of threatening with shooting is his norm. this is his default, to threaten others he doesnt like, not with words, not with fight, but with guns. also, there is no violence actually carried out according to the lyrics, only threatens. its way more like, a bad parental situation and aggressive father model, which leads this kid to be a total introvert, and he is singing this song in his head, as a fantasy, to himself, as to what he should or would do some day. this is also based on the very much reverbed whistling, reverbed and echoed singing effects put on the vocals, let alone the parts of those run run run like at the beginning. its all echoed, which reminds you of it being sang in a cave, which is a metaphor for your own head, which is the cave. which means, all of this, is in this kids head. which means, no act is carried out.
read the article on songfacts. the band and the writer describes the song as a psychtic guys internal monologue, and has nothing to do with school shters, but a mssed up minded teenager who has a father who loves guns.
@@phantomwarrior8686 read the article on songfacts, the writers said themselves it has nothing to do with schl shters, just a mentally dstrbed guy whos father has guns, and this is his internal monologue.
@@foxtrot680 most Coloradans are not ranchers lmao. Especially not around Denver and its suburbs, the most cowboy thing I've seen in Denver is the National Western Stock Show that comes around once a year. The cowboy thing is likely just a reference to westerns or cigs like OP said.
techno.logic and the cigarette is his mind. “He reasons with his cigarette” means that he was not sure if he should pull the trigger. His mind was his major weakness for his plan and what would be the death of him.
Last year there was a shooter at my school and someone died. It’s been very hard to deal with. As much as I love this song it hurts to listen too. Everyday I think about it and I hope that nobody ever has to go through anything like me or other kids ever. This is a real problem in the world and I just don’t think people are making a big enough deal about the consequences of guns. Anyways that’s my venting for today! Have a good night everyone
One of the biggest factors contributing towards such incidents continuing in perpetuity, imo, is the manner of media coverage they receive, in which said media rewards the perpetrators of these tragedies, not only with the instant infamy and power incentives the perpetrators learned could be achieved through prior media coverages, but also with the publicizing of any political manifestos perpetrators may have.
I’m so sorry to hear that. I can’t imagine what it must be like. All I can say is lobby hard to get your government to change the gun laws. There will always be gun crime, I’m afraid, but school shootings are rare (if not non-existent) in countries with strict gun control laws. I live in one of them.
I used to see this song as a happy song. It released when I was in high school. It was the song that everybody just sing ad dance to. I guess I wasn't aware about the meaning of the lyrics because maybe I was young and stupid but I think it was also because school shooting is not a problem in the country I grew up in. idk.
I never heard the song’s instrumental as “happy” either. I thought it sounded (if this is the word I’m looking for) weird and creepy. I also thought the chorus said “faster than my brother” when I was 7 and first heard the song. Lol
When you are happy,you enjoy the music When you are sad,you understand the lyrics When you are angry,you make the lyrics reality Edit: I’m never not looking at this again
I would hope it would fill you with condolence that you aren’t the only one that has felt that way, but because you aren’t so pathetic you fall to your lesser demons and understand being that monster solves nothing and makes you far worse than whatever or whoever put you in that headspace. No matter how bad a spot your in you can find happiness and success on your terms and and that is far greater revenge than destroying not only the ones that cause pain but doing worse to everyone who ever cared. Short story, it’s ok to feel like a loser sometimes, that doesn’t mean you need to make yourself a bonafide one.
Derpy Bacon oh the awkwardness of when he went back home with his sister. Band member:” yeah i just made a song with my friends” Sister:” nice what’s it about?” Band member:” a story about a kid named Robert and him shooting rich kids for revenge” Sister:”...”
@LTrain 45 I looked it up and it wasn't why the song was written (the song was written bc the lead singer forced himself to write one), but it did serve as inspiration for it.
As a 90s teen I will never forget Columbine. Although that was far from the first or unfortunately last school shooting, it was one that resonated with me. These were kids just like me and my friends. We loved metal and Black and AAAAAHHHHHHH!!! if you down you know what I mean. Either way, for me this created a mistrust in those around me. I thought, well hell, if their friends didnt know how would we? What if it IS Me who has this festering? IT was intense. To the parents of today, treat yourselves and your children well. Treat those you come into contact with with Love and Compassion. For I still believe we will Life in a World of Peace. Our lessons are clearly documented for us, the future is OURS!
Other Situation, we had a disco at school and 2 days earlier everybody could writedown some Songs that would be Played. First thing i wrote "Foster The People ~ Pumped up kicks" Disco Starts, pumped up kicks plays an hour later, teacher came rushed in in Panic that someones about to start a school shooting xD
3:45 I absolutely LOVE how you explained the elements of this song and all the eras they are pulling from/their purpose! I’m trying to build my very first original song (as someone who’s only just recently decided to finally start trying my hand at the medium itself) and I’m trying to mix and match different eras to make some kind of…bubblegum pop 60s/70s/80s hybrid rock? All I know is I want something to sound like I took this song, and Journey’s Don’t Stop Believin’ and merge them all with the Beatles and Beach Boys, all under a bubblegum pop vibe! It’s my very first time seriously trying my mind at music and music theory, so I’m intentionally not worrying about “perfection” or whatever, and focus on just having fun playing with sounds! So far, I have the drum beat, the baseline, and a couple of spaced out semi emotional synths, all done in the wee hours of the morning! I better go to bed, but I think I might have something here! Again, thanks for this video!💖
Absolutely not. You think it’s better to not acknowledge anyone can feel this way at some point, but you don’t act on every impulse? By getting it out there that people can have crazy thoughts or rage and understanding we can rise above them, sometimes easily, sometimes we have to reach out, and remove some of the stigmatizing elements we can hopefully lessen these atrocities. Knee jerk reactions like calls to ban weapons are pointless in the end. You have to address the root of the problem, which is the individual by listening and helping.
Yup, I listened to this album so much in high school. It has this essence to it where if I made a collage to represent my high school memories, this song would definitely be on it along with Adventure Time, Scott Pilgrim vs the World, and memes that aged horribly
Joz Me too. Just in my case it will be sophomore year at college!! One of my friends and the members of a student group used pumped up kicks for an ad inside the school. That was awkward to listen. Hehe
@@mihailsazdov4280 im American and it doesn't seem like a joke, atleast a good one. But either way he's referencing the association with this song and the all too numerous school shootings in the US
Man I’d be really jazzed about a discography deep dive of Foster the People. You’ve introduced me to some killer music over the years and the background is whipped cream on my musical sundaes. Keep it up, you’ve got a long time fan
When you really think about the intention Mark Foster had behind this song, it starts to be so unreal how an epidemic such as school shootings being so relevant during that time is still relevant today. In other words, this song is still alive and in today’s time. Mark Foster really doesn’t get the credit he deserves for this timeless piece
I actually had plans to burn down my school when I was young because of being bullied, the only reason I didnt was a girl I knew was nice to me that morning and I realized what a terrible idea it was. If you see someone getting beaten up stop it if you can. (Edit:Damn so many people here are good people faith in humanity ++ and thanks)
I never imagined myself harming my fellow students but I was bullied for playing soccer better than some popular kid. He had his cronies bully me for 2 years. Then my current friends helped me out and I found peace.
I remember I found this song in 2019, and being really confused on how this song was so popular with my classmates since I recognized the story behind the lyrics. It unsettled me, but I fell in love with the song for how well it approached the topic and emotions. I would listen to it while I was alone and freaking out about how easy it is in America for this to happen.
It isn’t just in America. It’s a culture problem. All through history in America kids and teens had access to firearms, much more so than today. We had parking lots full of trucks with guns on racks at highschools. Bulling was more common place, fights broke out on the regular. Disarming law abiding citizens will not solve it, mass murders do not follow gun laws. Even is you could magically make all guns disappear, there are plenty of other means of committing atrocities just as easily and effectively. Not to mention you leave everyone helpless to the better fighter or larger group. If politicians and schools really wanted to make everywhere safer, we would start teaching coping skills, allowing for and fostering communication and teaching proper intervention that doesn’t discourage individuals from coming forward yet does recognize when a threat is truly imminent, hopefully influenced never to reach that point.
What really shook me was how this song is nearly 10 years old. I was 23 when this song came out. I'm now almost 32. What the actual frick? Foster The People are one of my favorite bands with some of the most poignant and transformative lyrics of our times. Great video as always!
transamination I was in middle school when PUK came out and i remember high top shoes really were "in" back then, but they werent Reeboks like the video says, they were Osiris which you could only get from a Journeys. looking back, those shoes were ugly as shit. Also im 21 and im just now starting to experience that warped time perception you’re talking about. I remember every single birthday felt like a goddamn milestone when i was little, but now its just like "oh shit, its been another year already?"
The whistling section represents “Robert” walking down an empty hall whistling a melody stuck in his head Edit: imagine hiding in the janitors supply room dead silent then hearing a sinister whistle slowly getting closer, all your friends are gone, your teachers shot trying to stop the shooter all your happiest memory’s in that school come to life, you shed a tear, for these may be your last 5 minutes...
Helena Beat is another one: “I tie my hands up to a chair so I don’t fall that way,” anyone who’s ever had a loved one dealing with heroin addiction knows exactly what that chorus is saying.
I've been contemplating suicide for a while and that's the one problem, my family will be sad or feel they failed me. So it's not removing pain it's adding more 4-1 is three I loose pain but three people gain it
@@googleaccount7011 You r exactly how I were about a week ago. Don't care about anything. Don't worry about your exams or important stuff so much to the point of suicide. Stress is the reason for suicide. Don't worry about any results. Live ur life for what u want. It can be even be for simple things like enjoyment, playing lots of video games in future, for watching lots of good anime, to make ur life better, enjoying with your sibling, having some friends etc. Suicide is not an option. Play "VA-11 Hall-A" and watch anime like "Clannad". They will change your life for sure.
i'd always thought that the "dinners in the kitchen and it's packed in ice" lyric meant that his dad was abusive. like his dad would come home and hurt him, then he'd have to ice the wound or something. that's why he hated 'normal rich kids' because they all probably had a good life at home, and as a result, turned him violent. it's hella dark lol but I guess that's not what the lyric meant
I figured it was booze. I knew someone growing up who would have put their mom's beer in an ice bucket so it was cold when she got home or "else". CPS never did shit cause it was "mom", and they *never* abuse their kids, ever, ever.
With everything happening right now, and this video popping up on my recommended. I can't say if RUclips's timing is pretty impeccable... or just plain inhumane.
An undeniable teenage angst classic. I don't think there's anything else in the popular conscienceness to this day that has that sort of bite to it that we feel here.
Possible interpretation of those cryptic lyrics: "Yeah the slight of my hand is now a quick pull trigger" Slight of hand is something subtle, unnoticed. Perhaps that's how "Robert" moves through the world, as a shy and lonely kid, but he's about to trade that for a "quick pull trigger." In other words, he's going to snap. "I reason with my cigarette and say your hair's on fire, you must have lost your wits." You light the head of the Cigarette on fire to smoke it, hence "hair on fire." This is an expression that reffers to panic, or insanity. Same as "lost your wits." He's personified in the Cigarette, trying to reason with himself, but he's lost the ability to reason.
drksideofthewal i thought the “hairs on fire you mustve lost your wits” part meant that his dad tried to stop him but he ended up shooting him in the head. edit: also, maybe “sleight of my hand is now a quick pull trigger” ties in with the “ive waited for a long time” lines. This could mean that robert has waited for so long and now he’s anxious about the day he’s supposed to do it
You could also argue that the “groovy” base and drums are a stark contrast to the lyrics because its dichotomy that is going on in the kids head. Life on the outside is all good, but on the inside he is suffering and has no escape. Edit: Thanks for the likes, I’m surprised yet not surprised that more people agree with me on the internet than in real life. Stay safe everyone.
@@taintedmyth0s636 i mean it did show how and why it came to fruition, not just a sloppy description of the lyrics, plus the editing is *_GOD-TIER_* so you can't argue with that.
December 5, 2007, Robert Hawkins shot and killed eight people and wounded four others at a shopping mall in Omaha, NE. The lyrics don't mention anything about a school shooting. Robert was 19, was bullied in high school, and took out his 'revenge' at an affluent department store, then killed himself. Mark Foster came up with the chorus first, then needed to write the back story through the verses. The song wasn't written about Robert specifically, even though it appears that way with the first line "Robert's got a quick hand." He could have used Johnny or Billy, but he didn't, he used Robert because it was a current, real-life story, which made it more personal and relatable. The music is happy go crazy, the lyrics are dark, but if you have ever been around someone who has snapped, that is exactly how they behave right before they end everything.
Quick fact: Any song with only vocal is Disturbing and weird Edit: yes I know there is great amount of song with only vocal and sounds cool af, this is a joke, don’t take it seriously.
Mark is one of the best songwriters of his generation, there's always something on his lyrics that makes you think. Supermodel is so underrated, specially Pseudologia Fantastica.
I must admit. You delivered this entire video with great info, references, etc…what I am most impressed with is you managed to get this out without mentioning Jeremy by Pearl Jam. Not once. I was just sitting and waiting and it never came. That’s usually the first one anyone goes with; especially when it comes to songs about shootings, or redrum from the view of a teen red-rumer or someone within the same sphere of reality as said teen. Kudos :) excellent video
Great video. It was very engaging, interesting to watch, and you showed great editing and video production skill. The video was easy to understand, while still working some humor into it. This guy deserves at least 1M subs.
My dad can't hear lyrics when listening to music. He has difficulty differentiating overlapping sounds. Apparently, he never knew this song's subject matter. That means for a full 9 years my dad had no idea why this song was being used in films about said subject matter. I showed him this video and he was totally shocked.
I remember when I was 6 when I heard the song thinking that the song was about shoes and the "pumped up kicks" meant the new expensive shoes and "better run" meant that whenever you brought new shoes but didn't wanna get them dirty. I was so wrong.
Ironically I was a guitar player all through school and was also in music appreciation so listening and understanding lyrics became almost normal anyway my class want to use pumped up kick as our graduation song and I had to explain why that was a horrible idea

I remember I found this song in 2019, and being really confused on how this song was so popular with my classmates since I recognized the story behind the lyrics. It unsettled me, but I fell in love with the song for how well it approached the topic and emotions. I would listen to it while I was alone and freaking out about how easy it is in America for this to happen.
It isn’t just in America. It’s a culture problem. All through history in America kids and teens had access to firearms, much more so than today. We had parking lots full of trucks with guns on racks at highschools. Bulling was more common place, fights broke out on the regular. Disarming law abiding citizens will not solve it, mass murders do not follow gun laws. Even is you could magically make all guns disappear, there are plenty of other means of committing atrocities just as easily and effectively. Not to mention you leave everyone helpless to the better fighter or larger group. If politicians and schools really wanted to make everywhere safer, we would start teaching coping skills, allowing for and fostering communication and teaching proper intervention that doesn’t discourage individuals from coming forward yet does recognize when a threat is truly imminent, hopefully influenced never to reach that point.

*Can’t hurt anyone if there is no one left*
i'd always thought that the "dinners in the kitchen and it's packed in ice" lyric meant that his dad was abusive. like his dad would come home and hurt him, then he'd have to ice the wound or something. that's why he hated 'normal rich kids' because they all probably had a good life at home, and as a result, turned him violent. it's hella dark lol but I guess that's not what the lyric meant
bella mia same
That's what it could also mean as well
Art is subjective. Songs will always have a original meaning but it’s up to the listener to make up of what it means to you

A whole new meaning to the "*chuckles* I'm in danger" meme
An undeniable teenage angst classic. I don't think there's anything else in the popular conscienceness to this day that has that sort of bite to it that we feel here.
Possible interpretation of those cryptic lyrics:
"Yeah the slight of my hand is now a quick pull trigger"
Slight of hand is something subtle, unnoticed. Perhaps that's how "Robert" moves through the world, as a shy and lonely kid, but he's about to trade that for a "quick pull trigger." In other words, he's going to snap.
"I reason with my cigarette and say your hair's on fire, you must have lost your wits."
You light the head of the Cigarette on fire to smoke it, hence "hair on fire." This is an expression that reffers to panic, or insanity. Same as "lost your wits." He's personified in the Cigarette, trying to reason with himself, but he's lost the ability to reason.
drksideofthewal i thought the “hairs on fire you mustve lost your wits” part meant that his dad tried to stop him but he ended up shooting him in the head.
edit: also, maybe “sleight of my hand is now a quick pull trigger” ties in with the “ive waited for a long time” lines. This could mean that robert has waited for so long and now he’s anxious about the day he’s supposed to do it
GG
Bruh its "sleight of hand" and it means to use your hands without flaw
I can see that. The lyrics (like most) are figurative in this part of the song. At least that's my interpretation.

Made an edit but there’s still a typo
@@taintedmyth0s636 i mean it did show how and why it came to fruition, not just a sloppy description of the lyrics, plus the editing is *_GOD-TIER_* so you can't argue with that.
December 5, 2007, Robert Hawkins shot and killed eight people and wounded four others at a shopping mall in Omaha, NE. The lyrics don't mention anything about a school shooting. Robert was 19, was bullied in high school, and took out his 'revenge' at an affluent department store, then killed himself. Mark Foster came up with the chorus first, then needed to write the back story through the verses. The song wasn't written about Robert specifically, even though it appears that way with the first line "Robert's got a quick hand." He could have used Johnny or Billy, but he didn't, he used Robert because it was a current, real-life story, which made it more personal and relatable. The music is happy go crazy, the lyrics are dark, but if you have ever been around someone who has snapped, that is exactly how they behave right before they end everything.
Thank you for the clarification!
