Lyrics:
Askin' for a question
Was it easier said than was actually done?
Do you even believe that?
Do you even believe that there's a race to be won?

12 years later and here i am. still slaps and im still alive. both are amazing
Me too brother.
Not a bad way to go after all huh?
I went to like this comment... I already liked it. Probably summer 2021. Back for more tho
This band carried me through my very troubled teenage years and high-school. Almost 7 years after graduation, the sounds these guys put out are still the best medicine I know.
This Modest Mouse video is based off/a tribute to the first scene of the 1990 Japanese film called 'Dreams' (full title: Akira Kurosawa's Dreams). It is based heavily from the first dream/scene of the film; 'Sunshine Through the Rain'.
I definitely would encourage a viewing of the film, if nothing else you could at least wikipedia the film and read the cursory summary of the first dream/scene.
- Cheers
I want to see that thanks 11 year old comment lol
The Foxes!
This is one of those songs that I always feel like listening to
Happy fucking congratulations
This is the most insane bizarre but awesome shit iv ever seen
Thank you!! :)
I cannot comprehend how so many people who are fans of Modest Mouse hated this music video so much. It is abstract art. The beauty and genius of the music they create lay in the very same element of obscure, abstract, and metaphorical representations of the emotions and experiences of life. Sometimes these are tangible ideas that are easy to realize. Other times they are ambiguous matters that we can only know by feeling them. The video uses the same freedom of subjective interpretation that their very unique sound and endearing lyrics use. Open your mind, people, and step outside of the box of conventional aesthetic value. One of the greatest bands of all time.
Ithat your personal opinion about abstract art or what they tell you to believe
So what does the video mean?
faceplant51 both really
Since I have been getting notifications about my post lately, allow me to say a few things. First of all, faceplant51, I'm not sure if you were asking me a question, making a statement, or trying to be a douche with the whole "what they tell you to believe." Your lack of punctuation and details left your message a bit hazy. Secondly, the concept of abstract expression is a very clearly defined thing, and has been for a very long time. You can use Google to research it, if you must. With that being said, the meaning of the video is up to you. That's the beauty of abstract art: the meaning of the piece is open to any and all interpretations. It is meant to inspire your imagination, and is the most subjective form of art there is. If a person can't watch something like this video and create their own meaning it could mean that they just didn't like it. On the other hand, it could indicate a very narrow mind and dull wit. I don't know which category a person may fall into, but I think I made my original post because of the amount of unimaginative hyenas putting down the video merely because it didn't spoon feed them a linear plot. You've got to stop thinking in lines and boxes - the universe is a hologram.
I don't see a reason to dislike him. He hasn't rubbed me the wrong way.
Only gets better. Every time through a lifetime now. Modest mouse only gets better with time🙏💕
I feel like the whole point of this song is to show that people will say things that they don't mean. "Satellite skin" refers to artificial skin that is orbiting the person, just like a satellite is an artificial thing orbiting the planet. The "artificial skin" is the thoughts and ideas a person has stated that they don't actually agree with themselves, they just are saying things to be seen a certain way. Never really showing their true selves, so there is "nothing to even show they existed"
I don't think that is at all what they would interprete the meaning to be but it's nice to hear other people's thoughts about it
Why be yourself when you can join to crowd, all in all there is a race to be won that were all losing competing against each other. Do your really believe there is a race to be won?
This is a great write-up. Never even stopped to think of the song this way.
A tough exterior
Mouse. Is much darker than that. It’s based on his own observations & feelings. You have a phenomenal sense behind your screen to interpret the song that way, my guess or my interpretation would be it’s about being uncomfortable in your own skin. All the vile ticks an twitches. The muscle spasms from anxiety. Etc.
Can we all agree happy fckng congratulations
This song has everything that they do good, done to perfection. The harmonies at the end are signature Brock.
WELL HAPPY FUCKING CONGRATULATIONS :D This is my favourite part. Love this song, they played it on the radio the other day, was so happy dancing round my kitchen...
Every mm song has a favorite part like that
That and the "what the hey what the hell" part are the best parts
12 yrs ago! Insane:D My fav part too!
Mine too!
Kevin Willis directed this, same guy that worked along with Adam Jones from Tool in previous music videos
Explains everything
Everything about this music is art. Visuals, wide variety of instruments, lyrics, philosophy, feeling in the vocals... Simply amazing
When I was in first grade, I made a story called Bird House of the Wild. I had to make him go into a coma because I didn't have enough time to finish. I think this should be the ending.
😂
their videos are the best: nature, aliens, robed people, and mystery beings/objects. So..an acid trip. Dude, ideal.
dude i fucking love this song
Hey 👋 hope you have a good day!
Dude. Wonder what this child is gonna think when he sees it as an adult.
I had the EXACT same thought. Also, probably a good few weeks of nightmare now - LOL
Literally me right now
Shoot I wouldve thought it was a great honor to be in a music video with modest mouse
@@jaibindechilly2149 same, but you cant deny it's weirdeness lol
at least hes not the child from Kids - Mgmt
Modest Mouse... your videos are just...
Awesome.
Even drugs couldn't make this shit up.
I mean, drugs inhibit cognitive processes. So yeah, you're correct.
I wouldn't say inhibit, alter probably. And Ryan, They were probably on LOTS of drugs making this video XD but not nearly their weirdest video
Spooky Moths Considering how many great ideas were at least in part fueled by drugs I can't wholly agree with your statement. Of course, it depends on the drug. I've heard lots of horrible rambling theories fueled by cocaine. On the other hand, I've also experienced epiphanies through psychedelics. Cannabis can go both ways.
Tuff Luff I have a bias against them because of personal experiences, but I've seen weirder shit made sober than a lot of stuff done on drugs.
Spooky Moths what were your bad experiences and on what?
I don't know, the newest stuff just isnt the same. It doesn't have that grungyness that makes me want to smoke a cigarette and drive like a nomad. Non-the-less still love this band. One of the only bands i can listen to continuously.
I just love the bamboo steamers on their heads... besides the music, that's the best part.
This video is either super weird, or so deep that I cannot even begin to comprehend it.
Im so grateful to have not missed out on modest mouse in my teens
wow this reminds me of a Tool video...nice to see the creativeness isn't dead
This video was directed by Kevin Willis, who by my understanding had worked with Tool videos before
You're not the only one.
This is the story of a birdhouse who never got a bird, then grace bestowed him a bird and he ate it. Good birdhouse!
conceptual art dark souls XD
This would only belong in Dark Souls 2. 1 and 3 have a very different feel
I see dark souls 1
this is beyond dope
i love listening to modest mouse during a morning toker boker its quite soothing and rad :D
Lol
I don't know why I LOVE this song so fucking much. Modest Mouse you are artists. You are light in this obscure world of repetitive bull shit. Thank you
One of the meanings?:
He's saying we're not praying, were kneeling; we're not respecting, we're begging. This is probably referring to religion, as people who have a religion look to a higher god to make their decisions, and show them a path. I think Issac is saying be free to choose your own path, to fight for what you can do, and not just what they tell you to "Just like bein' my own solar system, doin' good things but they totally eclipse them". Like the houses controlling the people's lives
I found this video beautifully bizarre.
I somehow love it...
everyone of there songs has the best lyrics ive ever heard there amazing
Love this whole CD, and all the others.. But this the most.
This video is so nuts too, it's great.
Another monster track!!! My god MM is just a plethora of amazing music! Thank you for existing!!!
This song makes so so happy, i just want to listen to it over and over again. I think thats cause i always listened to it with my best friend while shrooming... those were some of the best times of my life.
The mind is liek a birdhouse, with ideas being a bird, and though a mind may house ideas, ideas are only realised when set free.
crunchy.
No one's first and you're next
They must be some of the most creative people... to say the least
The crunch at the end gave me a heart attack! I was only listening to the music, it's just starting to calm down with woodsy sounds...........CRUNCH!!
Crunchy!
first listened to this on bandcamp; never let go since then
💙
This guys twisted.......:thumbsup:what a wonderful one of a kind guy!!!!!
You're all wrong!! It's a reinterpretation of one of Akira Kurusawa's dream sequences from the movie Dreams! It's a movie made up of short films trying to replicate his dreams... This one is a remake of the first one called "sunshine, through the rain".
Meek da Mouse would be Proud ;)
Some Cronenberg here ❤
modest mouse, I love your music mostly I like your song satellite skin because I know it's about me and others like me and somehow hearing this song help alleviate some of the pain. Thank You for your great and insightful music. from not really alias Felicity Meadow
+Owen Rinn Way to sink his ship...
Ron Paul 2012!!!! Also this is a good song.
and that my friends is the work of nature
they always have the best videos. oh whats the use, oh what the hell.
The birdhouse fed his whole nation of birdhouses by sacrificing two of his little eggs. Since the only way to release the food was through the Alien's eyes, the alien is is feeding his pets such as we do to cats and dogs. A really cool video and i thank the band for sharing this magnificent piece of art!
I love this song so much!!!
fav modest mouse song period
And that children is how birdies are made.
My favorites, oh the feels
LoL i love the bird house creatures.I love modest videos.
this band is...amazing!
What the fuck does this mean?! jesus.. I hear my sister listening to this day and night and i go to check out the music video and this is what i find? I either had some bad mushrooms before this video or this is just insane. I'm still 'liking' the vid. God knows why...
This video creeped the F*CK out of me as a kid😂 Love it
for me anyways,i know everyone doesn't feel that same,but for me that's how i feel.
Well, *someone's* seen Akira Kurosawa's Dreams. They even do the same dance!
Fox wedding!!
Doctor Zock HOLY FUCKING SHIT YOU'RE RIGHT!
i like the bong water noises at the beginning haha
i love them. period
it even stops at 4:20
mind fuckin blown
Psychotic Smile
kinda amazing
The pixie stick dealer
Psychotic Smile it stops at 4:20. time to take a hit
not censored...thank god
favorite modest song right now(:
I love it seen them 3 times, live in Michigan, been a fan for 14 years
Coming back with the pixies at freedom hill this June I think
I’m about to go seen them once in Grand Rapids
This is weird AND fantastic to the zenith! = D
Satellite Skin really sounds like/reminds me of "Here" by Pavement
One yeah, the vocal line! Hahaha and how it ties in with the guitars!
fave sad song from mouse
I saw this played in the crystal ballroom, I think it was 2009. Someone yelled at Isaac, “play some old shit” and Isaac yelled back “here’s some new shit” and played satellite skin. 💙♥️💙
without a doubt the single greatest and most disturbing video ive ever seen all rolled into one
Favorite song.
This left me feeling very confused, yet satisfied.
This is a homage to Kurosawa's film Dreams, guyyyyys. Oops since I can't link it up, the clip can be found at "Escena de Los Sueños", or Sunshine Through the Rain
so thats how birds are born!!!!!!
Its so creepy but cool
wow..............this just stirs the imagination on wtf they are tripping on!!!!
I remember when Modest Mouse was good. I will remember to forget you forgot me.
Gotta love a song that uses heck and fuck in the same section of the melody.
i came back to this page just to comment... after having one direction advertise i x'ed my tab immediatley. good job vevo i still have never heard this song because of you..
this song is just brilliant!!!! love it
they have such good sound. i wihs i knew what it is trying to say.
Omg couldn't agree more
Rest in peace Jeremiah 💔
This video is a fucking brilliant work of art in it's own right.
i think we should stop hating on vevo and try to solve life mysteries.
1. How Modest Mouse come up with there music videos
Presente el habla Hispana escuchando este buen grupo!
As much as I miss the The Lonesome Crowded West, Interstate 8, and The Moon and Antarctica and such, I am so happy Isaac got sober and they developed their sound in a way that kept themselves interested in creating music. While I don't think this even light the shadow of their older content, I'm glad they're still creating content.
Years listening to it and toda came to the video
@Garrettcore I agree to a point, but i think the new stuff is fantastic in a different way.
never heard this song but it was exactly what i was looking for!
IM HAVING A BAD TRIP!!
Congratulations.
This video is so weird...so wonderful!!! Goes perfectly with this wonderful, weird song! Love the sound ... tired of everybody sounding like everybody else. They got their own thing going.
Great Song! Big Love from Argentina.
i don't see what people find so strange about this video. the birdhouses are critics and critical fans. the birds are works of art. in the end the boy graciously offers one to the birdhouse, who devours it. such is the nature of predators, such is the nature of critics.
wow, pretty great to see an ad for Arcade Fire then watch a video by one of the only modern bands to top 'em
i hate having dreams about this :(
Good to know how Crows are born... And the ending is pure nightmare fuel...
