You've done a terrific job, but it's just painful knowing that there's HD version of this sitting on some record company shelf. All the production costs of this came out of Leslie Feist's share of the royalties from the song, but it's just sitting there.
i had no idea. that is indeed tragic, given how iconic this video is. and it may look simplistic from a production standpoint, but that's deceptive; there is some elaborate camera/crane work going on. if you haven't seen this, a very rough 'behind the scenes' video is a good watch for fans: ruclips.net/video/8YFjn7aKnQs/видео.html
@@scotto2317Thank you so much for the link.🙏👍 That clip answered a lot of the questions I had about the extra clever bits. Now I've got an even greater appreciation for this music video.
I don't think young people of the AI and green screen generations realize the complexity and beauty of pulling this all of with a single camera filming this whole thing uninterrupted and unspliced. Beautiful!
What a dumb and unnecessary comment to make. I'm a millennial and I feel no need to take potshots at younger generations. I don't know if you're older or younger than me but I'm gonna assume you weren't around in the 1920's during the silent film era. Does that mean because you either weren't around to experience it when it was first introduced or because the process of film making with the addition of color and recorded audio has been made so much infinitely more easier means you couldn't appreciate the painstaking efforts they had to go through to make Charlie Chaplin's earliest feature length recorded efforts? Have some self-awareness.
I had never heard this song until August 2015. I was on hold with zulily 4 days after the birth of my son. This was the hold music. I fell in love with it immediately. That was a very happy time in my life, and this song was perfect for the occasion.
Thank you for doing this. So needed. This takes me back. It was a sad and troubled time (personally and globally), but for some reason, my memories of that time have a sweet sting. This song is like a glittery bookmark in a sad part of a book.
Well said. The song and video are such a time capsule for those of us who were around to experience it in the 00s, but also timeless - you could show this to somebody 100 years ago or 100 years from now and they'll get it too. For me, I was graduating high school at the time, getting ready for what came next. Old teenage hopes, indeed.
If I could add GIFs to YT comments I would add the “It’s been 84 years” GIF cause it HAS BEEN 84 years since I’ve been looking for a high quality version of this music video. Thank you for saving my life.
Obrigado aí, fera! Os caras donos dos direitos do clipe até hoje não colocaram uma qualidade decente. Um acinte contra uma excelente cantora como a Feist!
Thanks so much! It's such an amazing video. I remember having it on my Tivo and watching it back haha. I've been watching the LQ video for a while now, but it's nice to actually see her facial expressions and the colors again.
One, two, three, four Tell me that you love me more Sleepless long nights That is what my youth was for Old teenage hopes are alive at your door Left you with nothing but they want some more Oh, uh, oh, you're changing your heart Oh, uh, oh, you know who you are Sweetheart, bitter heart now I can't tell you apart Cozy and cold, put the horse before the cart Those teenage hopes who have tears in their eyes Too scared to own up to one little lie Oh, uh, oh, you're changing your heart Oh, uh, oh, you know who you are One, two, three, four, five, six, nine, or ten Money can't buy you back the love that you had then One, two, three, four, five, six, nine, or ten Money can't buy you back the love that you had then Oh, uh, oh, you're changing your heart Oh, uh, oh, you know who you are Oh, uh, oh, you're changing your heart Oh, uh, oh, you know who you are Who you are-are-are-are, ooh-ooh Oh, for the teenage boys They're breaking your heart For the teenage boys They're breaking your heart

good question. the DVD source i worked from truncates not just the bow (the last five seconds of the video), but also the first eight seconds of the video as she emerges from darkness onto the stage. these are moments of "dead air" before the song starts and after the song ends. i've seen the longer version referred to as the "director's version" (which ultimately was the main version), so maybe this was an earlier cut by the label or some such. anyway at the time i worked on this, i couldn't find a better source that included the bow, and because it's all one take, there was no way to seamlessly graft the bow in from an alternate source. so i ran with what i had.
I heard this on the Inbetweeners. Too me it's a song about everything going wrong and just thinking.... Fuck it and carrying on being happy for the day
She took six years off between Metals and Pleasure. Then six years off between Pleasure and this one. When you're literally the best singer in the world (yeah I said it!!!!) I think she would have to hold herself to a higher standard. Especially since I'm sure she's aware her vocal range is unfortunately diminishing by the passage of time. But we'll always Have those first four albums to capture her at her absolute peak the greatest singer of this millennium so far. And one of, if not the Greatest female guitarist(s) of all time.
I wonder what was used as the source as there are 2 low quality versions. The one in the Feist official channel is 360i (yes interlaced although youtube is reporting 360p) and the one on Vimeo is 480p.
i used a DVD-quality version from a VJ pool. you can see the pool's faint watermark in the lower right-hand corner of the video. VJ pools were subscription services that sent monthly batches of music videos out on DVD to clubs and bars.
They would have supplied a broadcast quality version to MTV and so on, but they only uploaded a low quality version to RUclips and for some reason never revisited that decision
@@oliviakim6930 - Yup. It's close to 1 billion views now. I've probably watched it at least ten times myself, and I've got no kids to take the blame! "One, two, three, four monsters walking 'cross the floor.", etc.
The audio has always been weird on this video. It sounds to me as though the audio was recorded live in the room so that they could capture the sounds the dancers were making without having to try to foley it later. It’s a low budget choice that results in less fidelity in the music than we’re used to in a music video.

Actually there was an HD version of this video on Vimeo a few years ago. Sadly, last time I checked it was gone.

I am an 80-90s MTV generation kid and this video is one of favorite videos of all time
For me this has a flavor of the eternal and mortality while it soothes me.
this song makes my soul feel so good

This really is one of the best songs ever.
I think the time means alot to me… i have alot of nostalgia for 07’-12’

This video is just really really good. The whole thing was done in one shot.
This video and song always makes me smile. Must have been so much fun to make. We're all just children in bigger bodies, ya kno?

This and regina spektor fidelity were on vh1 in 2005 while in NYU undergoing surgery and its the stuff like this that kept me going. ♡
Looks a lot better! Well done!
One, two, three, four
Tell me that you love me more
Sleepless long nights
That is what my youth was for
Old teenage hopes are alive at your door
Left you with nothing but they want some more
Oh, uh, oh, you're changing your heart
Oh, uh, oh, you know who you are
Sweetheart, bitter heart now I can't tell you apart
Cozy and cold, put the horse before the cart
Those teenage hopes who have tears in their eyes
Too scared to own up to one little lie
Oh, uh, oh, you're changing your heart
Oh, uh, oh, you know who you are
One, two, three, four, five, six, nine, or ten
Money can't buy you back the love that you had then
One, two, three, four, five, six, nine, or ten
Money can't buy you back the love that you had then
Oh, uh, oh, you're changing your heart
Oh, uh, oh, you know who you are
Oh, uh, oh, you're changing your heart
Oh, uh, oh, you know who you are
Who you are-are-are-are, ooh-ooh
Oh, for the teenage boys
They're breaking your heart
For the teenage boys
They're breaking your heart
Thanks for your effort on this. You did a great job. Much appreciated.
thx I waited HD version for +16y
Simple concept, complex execution. Brilliant video.
You made magic for our hearts thank you
The 2000s was so creative I miss it
Any decade is creative in their own ways.
Who else remembers this song being played on Seasame Street.
The Sesame Street version has almost one billion views.
it’s so beautiful, i cry, with happiness!
I love this song.❤
Masterpiece
Amazing, lost media always blows my mind!
Thanks Scotto for cleaning up the video!!!!!!!! It was embarassing.
Was this done in like 1 Take??? Brilliant!
Done in one take? Hell no.
Filmed in one take? Yes, I believe so.
Apologies for the pedantry.
Thank you such a great upscale video
Wow. I love you, man
Thank you... :)
I wanna sing this with extra emphasis every time it says "you know who you are" and see who of the people I know thinks it's about them lol.
thank you!
I'd love to see the outtakes from recording this 😂
you can! check this out: ruclips.net/video/8YFjn7aKnQs/видео.html

She should have been bigger based on her looks alone
this is good work. Upsampling is not easy. Question: why was Feist’s bow at the end cut?
good question. the DVD source i worked from truncates not just the bow (the last five seconds of the video), but also the first eight seconds of the video as she emerges from darkness onto the stage. these are moments of "dead air" before the song starts and after the song ends. i've seen the longer version referred to as the "director's version" (which ultimately was the main version), so maybe this was an earlier cut by the label or some such. anyway at the time i worked on this, i couldn't find a better source that included the bow, and because it's all one take, there was no way to seamlessly graft the bow in from an alternate source. so i ran with what i had.

She must've upset someone. She vanished.
she just put out a new album actually, i've seen one good video from it and have another one in my queue to look at soon

the source here is a 576i VOB file
This was great, what AI program did you use?
Topaz
Wow just realized she’s the only one wearing blue. I’m so dumb.😑
It’s catastrophe the original video was shot in 120P
I am curious. Did you upscale this from the bonus videos from the double disc edition of The Reminder?
i used a DVD-quality version from a VJ pool. you can see the pool's faint watermark in the lower right-hand corner of the video. VJ pools were subscription services that sent monthly batches of music videos out on DVD to clubs and bars.
I just love her little feet at the end the way they bounce!!! LOL!!!! She's awesome!!!!

👍
This is really cool because the original is such poor quality. I think AI can do better though. Make it happen and I'll subscribe and like.
❤
Does anyone know what the "one little lie" they were "too scared to own up to" was?
Was it not clearer on tv in 07 or was i just acclimated to lower resolution?
They would have supplied a broadcast quality version to MTV and so on, but they only uploaded a low quality version to RUclips and for some reason never revisited that decision
can we get some lyrical captions here. I teach music to students! Please.
best i can do is point you to the lyrics: g.co/kgs/mg5hCNy
Well, there's always the HD Sesame Street version to enjoy. The lyrics hold a very different meaning however. 🙂
That's a fabulous one!! 👌

一番最後におじぎするのがカットされてるぞ!
And this was one of the least AI needed videos- the imperfections (audio and video) were what made it great- lame
This is the original audio. Meanwhile feel free to keep watching the 360p version which is still perfectly available
