No one will ever, ever inspire me as much as Andrew. He saved my life, and my best friend's life. Watching this... I haven't grinned so large in a very, very long time. I'm so stoked for this album and for everything in the future. Thank you, Andrew. For everything. You're the most beautiful human being I've ever had the pleasure to meet.
Inspiration is definitely a word I would label him with. For many months, his music alone was what got me through some pretty dark times. I still carry his music on my iPod with me every where I go knowing that when it gets a little dark, I always have a little bit of light with me. Thank you, Andrew
this may be one of the most beautiful pieces of footage i've ever seen. once you get past what you're seeing and see what you're hearing, the entire piece opens up to you. i'm definitely one of those people who call him an inspiration. can't wait for people & things.
yeah so why am I crying?. I love this band, these men. I saw them live recently and I just cant express how excited I am for this. I've written short stories inspired by thier music, I've doodles waves and little dog paddleing figures inspired by "Swim", on the back of a many a notebook. Thankyou so much Jack's. xxxxx
This is incredible. I can't wait. So emotional, and the song in the background sounds AWESOME. I cant wait till this album comes out. Also... LOL at Bobby at the end.
I was not so sure about the whole "running" thing, but the voice over was cool, so I continued to watch. Then Bobby came out and started running and that is when I realized that this is possibly one of the most ridiculous productions I have ever seen. From so cool to just so dorky. But that's what I love about it.
I could be wrong...But is this video recorded in Brooklyn right near the Williamsburg Waterfront. I saw a Death Cab show there and right at the end of the video it looks like NYC from Brooklyn.
Does anybody know why Andrew uses singular versus plural tense in certain instances in this video? For example, he says "thing" instead of "things" at 1:24, and "song" instead of "songs" at 2:03 - even when these words should be plural in the context of his sentences. But at the end of the video, he says, "People and Things" (plural). I'm wondering if he does this on purpose; and, if so, for what reason.
@rocklover3300 They still say hiatus. There is nowhere that he claims to have a break up but I don't know cause I remember when I saw Soco in Chicago last May, I thought he said something about a breakup but at the same time, he always says hiatus so I don't know which is true :D
@bamfwassuppp - Everyone has their own opinion, but I have personally met this incredibly amazing, inspirational man and I was not disappointed by him at all. He is easily one of the sweetest and genuine people I have met. It was five years ago this month, and it was single-handedly one of the most amazing moments in my life. This man is a fighter, Andrew McMahon never ceases to amazing me, I truly wish that you could see this too.
Did he say that things fell apart with SoCo? I thought they went on hitatus to take a break and then Andrew fell in love with the idea of Jack's Mannequin. I guess they did break-up in the end
@superducktapeman Don't be impolite by speaking of yourself that way. If you don't like the band, get off their videos. Go watch your Britney Spears! END OF CONVERSATION.

This is why I adore this guy! He's an unbelievable and amazing human being. He truly is a fighter, hero and an inspiration! Way to go Andy and JM!
His voice is so soothing and you know he means what he says, speaking or singing. Incredible.
He is the one person who has changed his songs but not his heart within music. Seriously love you and the music forever Andrew!

thank you for continuing to write the music you write... thank you for surviving... thank you for being who you are... to us, that's inspirational...

I love this band way too much
Oh my god, I love Andy so much. He is the coolest, nicest, most talented person ever.
I also love when the band comes out of nowhere when he says "went out with my band"
so perfect.
This is why I love him.
I watch this video everyday to remind myself that whatever problem I have isn't that big a deal. Andrew McMahon is such an inspiration.
People and things will be the first legit album I purchase from a music store since the internet existed.
Oh my word. I got chills watching this. This is simply why Andrew McMahon is amazing & truly is my inspiration.
This has got me even more excited for the new album. Thank you Andrew for sharing your thoughts.
You're an inspiration Andrew. Thanks for your amazing music!
andrews the only person who could put this kind of thing into words
watching this at 2am and sobbing my eyes out.
this is my life
(':
Ohhhhhh myyyyyy gooooodddddd. That's all I can say. I was iffy on whether or not I should go to see JM in Vancouver, but now I'm 100% there.
please don't ever stop making music
a world where love is not the stuff from greeting cards but a trench war worth fighting
HOLY GOD THIS MAN IS SO AMAZING.
This is incredible. I can't wait. So emotional, and the song in the background sounds AWESOME. I cant wait till this album comes out.
Also... LOL at Bobby at the end.
How does this only have 3400 views?! Amazing video and amazing story!!!
This is a amazing monologue and video. I love this!!!
Oh my god andrew, you are the most amazing man
Sometimes I will return to this video and have a good, much needed cry.
rewatching this a year later and still gives me the chills! can´t believe JM it's over :( ...but I know AM will soon give us something even better!
I like how all of his video's have 0 dislike =) I can't imagine anyone hating on Jack's Mannequin or Andrew..
Just bought this CD today. I love it.
how have I not seen this until now??
CANNOT. WAIT.
@Pinch002 the song playing in the video is called television, off of their new album.
One more reason why I am wishing it was October!
omg those shorts, those socks, that headband. and then bobby's shorts. hahahaha
Andrew McMahon has the most amazing way with words. I could watch this on a loop all day
I was not so sure about the whole "running" thing, but the voice over was cool, so I continued to watch. Then Bobby came out and started running and that is when I realized that this is possibly one of the most ridiculous productions I have ever seen. From so cool to just so dorky.

Ahhh so excited!!
i love this
Happy birthday, Andrew
Incredible
this kicks serious ass
I just want to know what song is playing in the background... I hope it's on the album!
damn i wanna start over too!!
Still watching this in 2020 :)
a world with tenuous connections. He saying that the world has connections with little importance coming in and out of your life.
Wow
@YoungHenry101 Looks like the song is called "Television"
It may not be life or death, but It's life
you mean... "OUR new record"!
I now understand why it took me so long to warm up to The Glass Passenger.
What the hell is Chief Wahoo doing in the bg at 42sec? Cleveland!!!

"It may not be life and death... but it's life."
Woah...
Chief Wahoo at 0:40. Go Tribe!
even if you don't think of yourself as a hero know all of your fans do.
@rkkeeper The Glass Passenger was the album when he was sick. JM is the sh*it!
The voiceover is super cool, but the visual is fucking hilarious!
please god tell me that the song in this trailer's gonna be on the album
Television-Jack's Manequinn (;

He and his band toured....Konstantly?

Whats the background song?
Oh my god.
it may not be life or death but its life
raped the replay button. :))

A world with what connections? 1:40
@bamfwassuppp This man is my hero.
@mobius4379
a version of television from JM
omg :-)))
Notice when one guy runs with jeans lol
who else went jogging right after watching this?
@tommanb182 Yeah it is Television
zero dislikes
@onesweetdmb
Each male figure is entitled one non-homosexual man crush. Mine is on Andrew McMahon. Hands down.
clearly mikey likes to run in jeans. or he didn't get the memo what the shoot was about.
