Nick Offerman makes this butter
butter my better

*bitter*
To be fair, Ron Swanson would probably make his own butter

LIVE IN BERLIN - "Thank you, Stuttgart!"
thank you
There's nothing butter than seeing Ron Swanson in a Decemberists music video.
His name is Jerk Offmyman
PoPoyopon The failed joke ^. Good luck next time, buddy.
ajkelly451 *zach galifianakis
ajkelly451 Except, like, maybe the Decemberists on Parks and Rec... :P
You mean Duke Silver right
Hilarious and bizarre and yet somehow heartfelt...just as the Decemberists always are
Ron Swanson attempting a German accent. Life complete.
YoungJin Kim at first I thought it was Russian, until it said Berlin.
Jeremy Lewis i thought French
Anyone else appreciate it when bands show the necks of their guitars when they make videos? Makes it easier to figure out how to play the song.
"There comes a time in a man's life when the music makes sense"
TT_______TT
I love they got everytihng period correct to the 70s in Germany. The Sennheiser mics are perfect. .... and those fiberglass horn style toms like Alan White played in Yes.
I’ve reached the time on my life when I know what I want, and the music makes sense
Colin Meloy is a true genius. Just finished reading his Wildwood series and I'm truely amazed by his talent as an author as well.
*Colon
My son would go to a summer program in Portland Oregon based on that book.
"there comes a time in a mans life where... where the music makes sense" is probably the best quote I have ever actually been able to identify with, perfect way to end the video!
Not sure why there's so much hate over the video. It's quirky and broody. Like the Decemberists. Personally, I love it!
The very first song I ever heard by them…and one of their best too.
This song could use a saxophone solo from Duke Silver
For sure
lmao
You beat me to it.
Arturo Millán
All of my yes!
Now can we just get Nick Offerman to play saxophone on a Decemberists album?
Christiana Sherrill You mean Duke Silver?
I was 19 in 1977. I can attest that this video is a perfect recreation of that era.
Accurate - everything had harvest gold undertones.
I was 64 in 1977 iam now 110 years old.
keep on keeping on, old man@@sebastianruhland5198
Maybe over analyzing, but I think "when the music makes sense" was a much better line.
I cannot tell you how many times I have cried to this song..
Me too. Generally while belting it out, practically screaming along to it at very high volume on the motorway (where the loudness offends no-one at all!) on my own.
“what’s your favorite decemberists song?” “make you butter”
Nick Offerman's cutting, "so you say," might be the funniest line ever delivered
Even though I'm in an amazing relationship, this song still always makes me want to cry.
I'm the same. I think it's because we've all felt *this exact feeling* and it is so deep, so hardwired in us, that it'll never stop hurting ever, regardless. Colin's lyrics make me cry a lot. He *knows*. He just *knows*.
You're so right - me too! (And I thought it was just me ❤)
lyrics:
I want you, thin fingers
I wanted you, thin fingernails
And when you bend backwards
I wanted you, I needed you
Oh-oh, to make me butter
I'll love you in springtime
I lost you when summer came
And when you pulled backwards
I wanted you, I needed to
Oh-oh, to make me butter
Oh-oh, to make me butter
But we're not so starry-eyed anymore
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
And won't it all just come around to make you
Let it all unbreak you to the day you met her
But it'd make you butter
It'd make you butter
I sung you, your twinges
I suffered you, your tattletales
And when you broke sideways
I wanted you, I needed you
Oh-oh, to make me butter
Oh-oh, to make me butter
But we're not so starry-eyed anymore
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
And won't it all just come around and make you
Let it all unbreak you to the day that you met her
And it'd make you better
Did it make you butter?
Make you butter
And all I wanted was a sliver to call mine
And all I wanted was a shimmer in your shine
To make me bright
'Cause we're not so starry-eyed anymore
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
Won't it all just come around and make you
Let it all unbreak you to the days you met her
But it'd make you butter
It'd make you butter
idk why this song has such a sadness to it
cant get enough of it
This song has the feeling of mid 90's Counting Crows, not complaining.
Lol as someone who walked out of 3 decemberists shows back on the 00’s because they “sucked” but now spends at least 2 hrs a day listening to the band... there is indeed a time in a man’s life when the music makes sense. Please fucking go back on tour.
The video is great, yes, but let's talk about the SONG. One of the of the best choruses of any indie song in the past decade. It scrapes the skies.
Yeah but maybe a little more cowbell
One of the butter songs ever done!
Curly guitar leads , now that's what i call attention to detail , love love love this song
Lovely to see Jenny looking well. Yay!
Excellent! That song couldn't be butter.
People from the band could not find better name for the album than What a Terrible World, What a Beautiful World. It shows conflicts of beautiful and terrible world and this is what the best describes the inner world of their songs. With elegant melodies that hey served for people like us can be this planet still quite a pleasant place to live, sometimes.
Quite simply one of the greatest music videos I've ever seen.
I sooooo badly want to see them in concert!!! But none of them are close enough for me to go without having to take time off of teaching. >.< The only band I want to see in concert this year.
They are WORTH it if you can find a way.I have seen them three times and have tickets to see them in Portland in March. I will not miss them if I can help it :-0
Love it! Also, Nick Offerman makes everything better.
He also makes everything butter
You say better, not butter
Never noticed Chris Funk getting his beard/mustache caught in the microphone at 3:05 before today. Perfect!
Love it. Always good to see Nick Offerman on German television in the 1980s.
The December
ists are one of my favorite groups!
making you butter
10/10
Great song - the video, if one watches without puristically listening to the music, is brilliantly done. Bill Fishman / whoever came up with the storyboard has clearly put intricate thought into this. Each piece has meaning and it's well produced. Anyone who knows anything about production can see how cleverly it's been done. There will be those who disagree, but from this viewer, much appreciated.
Nick's dancing makes this so much butter, I mean better.
this is so great. such a great video for one of their very best tracks. watching again 13 January 2023
I love when bands make their music videos comedic!
A friend recommended that I try some Decemberist music.
I'm glad he did. Excellent, excellent music.
There should be a real show like the Old Blue Rock Palace Show. Love the interview style.
He has a John Denver quality about his voice.
...but without the annoying '70's bowlcut.
Especially in the Lake Song (Lyric Video)
I love that Colin gave some love to the Peavey T-60. A fantastic guitar!
"Did it make you better?" The heaviest of questions..
OMG Nick Offerman!
Omg Marshall!
OMG Paul Tandy!
Colin and the crew continuing their march to concur every musical genre. Move over DC4C!!!
just broke up with my gf and i stumble upon this. this is a haymaker right in the feels.
+cruhg I hear you, bud.
Today's the year anniversary of getting broken up with. I didn't even connect the lines till today, then it choked me up
+cruhg
I tried to click on your profile image...
But yeah, I'm sorry to hear that you had to go through that. I can't really say that I understand, considering I've, uh, never had a significant other. "Owner of a Lonely Heart" and etc.
You made her worse. Weep and wail for your inadequacies.
@@samuelmorse784 who hurt you sam
Its a video, its meant to entertain and bring about discussion of the band. I would say job well done guys and gals. Job well done.
Very cool!
First time listening this band it it hits me right square in the feels... this is incredible...
One of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard
This very much reminds me of the 1976 Fairport Convention live recording for Rockpalast in Germany, I like the throwback very funny
just dicover this AWESOME TUNE ten years later on FX 99,1 Alternative raio -Arizona 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Such a great tune.
Gotta love that Steve Brule look. For your single!
Very "Death Cab", with fuller harmonies toward the end.
jockslap i agree with you, if you hear ""The King is Dead" is all folk/country
yep i know, actually if we want to compare Death Cab with any other band i think Band of Horses have a really close sound sometimes, you should check it, if you don' know them, i recomend them to you XD
jajaja ok!
Javier Hernandez O Band of Horses is much farther from Death Cab than the Decemberists are. Death Cab has more of a simplistic pop appeal and Band of Horses is pretty spacey sounding. Idk... I think people get into trouble when trying to argue that "X band sounds like Y band" because the factors that come into play in someone's interpretation are usually far different from others. In fact, most songs from early Decembrists albums sounds wildly different from this song, and Colin's voice is really the only unifying factor that can help us to determine that it is in fact the Decemberists. Human's propensity to plop things into categories doesn't seem to work all too well with music, even at a genre level. So let's just stop, relax and listen, mkay? =)
Jonathan Vernot except they have got better while death cab has spiraled into a toilet drain. lifetime death cab fan here. RIP death cab. long live colin maloy and the decemberists.
This video is hysterical and genius.
My favorite 2015´s song so far !! I do love it from the bottom of my heart !
I just cannont understand how it is not on the radios !!!
Oh my goodness I cant wait to see you in portland Live!!!
What a voice!!!
Such a good song.
God! Colin Meloy it's such an inspiration!
This video is magic.
This album is so awesome! I just saw them live for the first time and they were phenomenal.
Those overalls give me life
These guys are great. Their sound is tilted a little different. Love it!
I miss her so much, I won’t be better..
What an artistic video. I liked it. Great song
I Just saw it like 20 times in the Broadway Channel on my JetBlue flight and couldn´t stop laughing!!!! It´s a perfect satire on the German music shows of he 1970´s (Pop in Germany) plus the VHS touch and so on.. Plus the last line ¨um...¨¨Wrong!¨it´s the icing on the cake! A must-nominate, front runner for any upcoming Video Award event. Love THE DECEMBER ISTS!!! >D
A BIG LIKE on it !!
Turn a really bitter breakup song into an Eric Andresque comedy short film? That's a bold move, Cotton. But it works.
i feel so stupid omg, so i talked to my friend about neutral milk hotel so they introduced me to this band. after watching parks and recreation for the 4287 time, the unity concert i finally realized what band it was i need to slap myself wow
Love this band, Ron Swanson just makes it so much better. Such a beautiful song
*butter
I was perusing RUclips for the Decemberists and did not expect the Swanson to be in it
Love the song, love the video, looking forward to seeing you in Manchester next year.
greetings from Greece!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How could I have missed Ron Swanson and Colin Meloy in the same interview?!
Ditto!
The accent and goofy retro clothes, maybe?
*Colon
I love this song!
Fantastic tune!
Love this one! Can't wait for the new album!
This is amazing. My God.
Bloody fantastic!
so nice song with a very nice sound..i am love it
Brilliant! This is making me nostalgic...
One of my favorites.
IM FREAKING OUT OVER NICK OFFERMAN
Have to admit The Decemberists escaped my notice until now. I'm getting some strong Weakerthans vibes here, for anyone who knows that Canadian indie band. Also a bit of Fleet Foxes. This is good stuff.
Love it. raggin on The whistle test
I enjoyed the Love, American Style scene (the kiss enclosed in a heart, surrounded by fireworks).
Nick Offerman + The Decembrists? My new favourite thing
I really enjoyed this video and love the band - hope they come to Sydney one of these days.
How did it take me so long to find you ❤️❤️❤️
the book Playist For The Dead introduced me to this band. i have no regrets. none at all.
i've never listened to the decemberists before but i do have to say i'm surprised this is really good
I wonder if the woman's name is Tammy
Sherri
Could be Tammy Lynnn though
She looks like a Tammy
Great video for a great song! That Peavey guitar is a classic!
Thank you Stuttgart!
OMG just perfect. Nick! And the song is so beautiful!
I love this so much
