kinda sad how all of their music gets relatively little attention despite all of the hard work. this video deserves way more than the million views it has right now
It's a reupload. It got way more than a million
Yah the original upload went viral with 20 mil+ views
Weird to me how it get this much attention since their music is boring and generic. People are only praising them for their videoclips.
FMMAGE ok but did we ask?
its a cool video, but the music might not be accessible enough to enjoy for some, and too generic for others
Teacher: "The test wont be that confusing."
The test:
The worse thing is that it icommulates to nothing
That is true, ngl. But just think, the video was taken in ONE shot. Why not enjoy that?
i love how all the crew pops out of nowhere at the end
Just think: those poor SOBs were probably hiding somewhere, & had to keep moving to assist & hide :0
one of the MOST underrated band. and literally every single one of their music videos is genius
FINALLY - Somebody else realizes it!!! WTF? Where are the minds that understand their brilliance?
One of the most underrated video makers, sure. As for the music itself, it fits those great music videos but that's about it.
The band is just O.K they are good at making videos that is it. As a band 6/10.
This is one shot. Take a moment to appreciate that.
Not just a moment, but take The One Moment to appreciate this.
Wait that means the bearded man shaved in the time or used a fake half beard
arandom Cockroach , when??
Hello. Theres a scene where he has a mirror and splits his face into two characters during the mirror bit
arandom Cockroach yeah but he says half shaven throughout the rest of the video too :)
One of my favorite parts of these videos is the acknowledgement of the crew. OK Go videos have always shined a light on the dedicated crewmembers who pour their heart and intelligence into these projects, always showing us just what kind of effort goes into these videos.
True. However, I was puzzled that the band does not stand as a team but rather like a one man show.
The writing is really on the Wall, Ceiling, Floor and everywhere else.
Even on the people. Quite confusing, isn't it?
"Man making art is hard"
*OK Go casually gets an art museum made for their music video*
YESSSSSSS!!!!
Jesus Christ yass😂
Jesus Christ I DIDN'T KNOW JESUS WAS A FAN OF OK GO I'M GOING TO CRY
Why is Jesus Christ verified? Did you not die for our sins already?
Jesus Christ it's Jesus Christ
Even Jesus likes it! 😊
Its like a rollercoaster with many optical illusions.... my head hurts now

@@professorventurer7331 That vid is completely irrelevant in comparison. Why the link???
@@GoldenBoyFlorida probably either a bot or music to calm the brain
@@TRBenjiSwiss Ah! Thanks. Both of those explanations make sense. The song is pretty soothing, tbh!
I think one of the best trick in this video is when he yells "cut", and the tech guys all appear out of hiding, and you realize they'd been staying off-camera the entire video. Great final moment.
THIS!. This is the best part, because you realize just how meticulously this was planned!!
Art. In every way, shape and form. These men are artists, without a doubt.
OMG. Nobody could have said it better. That's not an observation, it's TRUTH.
I took my daughter to see this exceptional group at a really really small venue. They were so personable, they came into the audience to sing and let us ask questions. In my days of spending my summers chasing the Greatful Dead, Ok Go was just as amazing and taking my daughter, even better.
Girls: ugh I've been sending him so many signals, why doesn't he get it?
The signals:
True
Very clever
It is true for some girls/women. Not all are like that. Just keeping it literal. But it is partially true
"Oh no I forgot to hit Record!"
Can we please get a whole Netflix documentary about the making of all of these videos? Featuring everyone involved behind the scenes.
That would be awesome to watch. I've introduced so many friends to this band.
One of the most underrated bands who's music videos will go down as the stuff of legend.
It is physically impossible to learn the lyrics to their songs while watching the videos. Your brain is too busy watching the spectacle for the words to register.
Instructions: Watch. Lather. Repeat.
Yeah I'm gonna buy a straight-up audio CD of one of their albums just to listen, 'cos they're getting me so distracted with their wonderful visual art, and there is no looking away.
@@Speechless1963 yes it's very pretty music but the videos are beyond anything imaginable
@@ChrisJones-ij3xp They've become my favorite band. I binge listen. The more I listen, the more I hear, the more I hear, the more I appreciate them.
And I thought it was only me who was not able to catch the lyrics.
The _”I understand you, but I don’t,”_ part actually made me cry-
The lyric is actually, "I think I understand you..."
And the song is all about relationships. It sounds like you can identify - which has a lot to do with healing, ijs.
I always thought you'd song was about a break-up that's inevitable, but he wants to end it on a high note.
But yeah, that line hit hard for me too.
I'm happily engaged with the most amazing person I've ever met, but that line still hits me hard.
Me too
I feel like there’re so many little things I missed
I've watched this about 20x. I still think I'm missing something. But the song and lyrics are so good - I'll keep on looping it! We may never find all of the subtleties, but at least we heard an awesome jam, repeatedly!
0:20 me when somebody tells me to be there or be square
I think I understand you, but I don't.
I really would like to know how many artists and assistants these guys give work to with their productions.
The ending should be a good representation
@@spacenoodles5570 obviously a lot I was just wondering if they had a credits book or something somewhere.
Probably mechanics experts too
I'm binge watching every single video on their channel and the bts with the crew (directors, cameramen, paint artists, digital work, etc) is so much fun see the work and time behind the video, I love this guys
Damien's smile a few moments before they end the take makes me happy. It looks so relieved
this is not just a video but a challenge to the whole world to be creative enough like OKGO.
i admire your work and love your music too.
Every. Single. Video. Is a mesmerizing, mind boggling joyride of eye candy.
These guys have created the most entertaining visuals I think that I've ever seen. And every one of their songs knock me out too! Hope they never quit....It's genius eye candy!
These guys always put a smile on my face
This song brings back the good ol 6th grade memories in my art class. Just zentangling and listening to some OK GO. Miss it so much.
i walked away from my computer while playing an OK Go playlist on youtube and I can honestly say their music stands on its own easily.
This one really gave me a new perspective.
Idk, seemed kinda forced to me.
>:(
Omg you’re all so punny :D
Lolz this is quality humor 👌
They are so talented. WTF man?! Why haven’t I heard about them anymore!!?!?
when i was starting to think about breaking up with my ex i started listening to this song a lot and the line "it seems like forever since we've had a good day" always made me cry. almost 10 years later i'm listening to it again and crying again at the same line, wondering if my current relationship has run its course. it really does feel like forever since we've had a good day. it's bittersweet but thanks for helping put words to my feelings
Something most people I know dont know this band was one of the only things keeping me going in my childhood. every moment I remember this song I remember the good times that were few and far between. Im leaving this comment here because everytime I listen to this I start to tear up more and more. So this might be the last time I listen to this band which is sad but life is not to remember bad moments but keep those good ones in your head. Remember people, these songs are the closest things we have to time machines as they remind us of the good parts in our childhood. I love you guys so much and never forgot that you made peoples childhoods that much brighter!
I’m genuinely impressed that the music is actually really good
this band was a massive part of my childhood and i think about there music videos often, it really shocked me when i relalised how little attention they have considering the absolute genius of it all :(
Much love! This video ranks up there with Eve 6's curtain for me. Truly a visual masterpiece and the song creates a great vibe that instantly brings me to fun times when I was growing up in the 80's
This will surprise you. The OK Go one-shot is actually pretty fascinating, here's why... The reasoning, is that it actually relates to how most *music* is created. Band members make all the individual riffs, or segments of music, separately (kind of like how films piece together many individual shots). Then add them all together (in music, like in film editing) .
*But* the interesting aspect, that most people are not aware of, is that the majority of bands do not even learn to play the songs all together at one single time to even record the album. Much like a single shot in a movie, this actually comes afterwards.
So the more difficult, or time consuming part, is actually learning how to play it all together, at one time, for live audiences (like a continuous no-edit one-shot in film). Basically the one continuous shot, really is the visual framework for music, when it's ready to be played live after it's been produced. 🎶🎵🎹🎸🥁🎺🎻🎬
Ilove this song!❤
But what's up with the ReUpload?🤔
Lofi Trash What are you talking about, it has been released today.
The description clearly says that the song is 4 years old.
I think it's because of quality of vids
They're apparently re-uploading vids in HD.
Daniel Higgins dude was just asking why are they reuploading this. the 're' in uploading means to do again. your answer is irrelevant?
Hearing this for the first time I over a year hit me with a wave of nostalgia from when I used to listen to this daily
Just heard a character in a TV show I was watching mention "writings on the wall" as a saying and nostalgia just hits me coz I remember this song and how I'd always play it during my college days... lovely memories :)
Shaved his beard in seconds. Props to you.
Only had one chance to do it or wait another couple months to grow it bacj
He actually shaved beforehand and wore a fake beard that attached under his hat. There is a really cool video taken of them while they were filming this so you can see how everyone was running around like crazy when they werent in scene
@@davidrothberg1112 I imagined the the probable chaos off camera the whole time as soon as I saw them all pop out at the end 🤯
This group by far has the most amazing archive of FANOMINAL AND MIND BLOWING music videos. Just mesmerizing
*Phenomenal
This song should be UP again, not only the song which is got me earworm, but this whole music video is soooo impressive!!!
I've only just came across this literally about 10 minutes ago and quite frankly I'm astonished by how they've done this! I actually had to watch it twice to just appreciate the amount of work they put into this. Who needs CGI and Hollywood effects when you can do THIS?
Analog-scientists-musicians can do this ✨
That guy definitely had a full beard in the beginning, then somehow went to half beard
It shows what they did in the behind the scenes
I think if you look closer to the first shot of him with a full beard, you can see that the right half of it was drawn in with a marker or something
@@xenoariel5091 if you watch the making, they shave his beard off camera
*[LYRICS]*
Listen, I know it's been hard
You know, it's no different for me
We're less than a zero-sum game now
And baby, we both know that's not how it's supposed to be
The writing's on the wall
It seems like forever
Since we had a good day
The writing's on the wall
But I just want to get you high tonight
I just want to see some pleasure in your eyes
Some pleasure in your eyes
And I go too high, and you go too cold then we both fall apart
Then you bring your mind, to rest against mine
But the mind has no say on affairs of the heart
The writing's on the wall
It seems like forever
Since we had a good day
The writing's on the wall
But I just want to get you high tonight
I just want to see some pleasure in your eyes
Some pleasure in your eyes
Then you bring your mind, to rest against mine
But the mind has no say on affairs of the heart
The writing's on the wall
It seems like forever
Since we had a good day
The writing's on the wall
But I just want to get you high tonight
I just want to see some pleasure in your eyes
Some pleasure in your eyes
I just want to get you high
Just want to get you high
Just want to get you high
Even if it's the last thing we do together
Even if it's the last thing we do together
These are really well written lyrics
I come back and watch this video regularly. You guys nailed it and you deserve so much more for your hard work and brilliant music
I love this song! Years later and every time I see an OkGo video I cant help but stop and marvel at the the sheer altitude of creativity these guys achieve in all of their projects! I hope they never stop being so amazing!
One of the best music videos of all time. Well done!
Best video I've seen all year SUPER DUPER TO THE 5TH POWER WOWWWW......LOVE THIS VIDEO it's so Amazing the Art
I used to watch them as a kid and now I'm back and my memories just unlocked.
I swear this was the best music video ever! I watch it from time to time and I'm amazed every time.
THIS IS A REAL FLIM!!!! Well done guys, so pumped to see this.
This will be like the most brilliant video I have ever seen in my life. lol
They're just too good at what they do, and everyone who made this possible falls right into that category. They are wonderful people. I hope they keep making this world so fun and beautiful! Hard work pays off!
MC Escher made drawings and paintings, these guys make music videos. All is right with the world in my books.
My brain hurt so much but I had a lot of fun watching this, tysm
Such an amazing video for such a sad song... it breaks my heart, it's so sad. One continuous take through some awesome illusions... maybe the point of the song as well. All they have left are illusions... the writing is on the wall. Ok-Go is so damn awesome 😀
You WIN! You got it 😀
Ok Go is one of those bands I always, routinely get obsessed by and every time I rewatch the same videos and get the SAME EXACT amount of joy I got the first time. Thank you for your art, guys. Your music and the videos for it make all of us really happy. ❤
I was just thinking exactly this!
Every song feels like the last one you guys will produce. Gut wrenching and bittersweet every song
this is my favorite new order song
thank you:) was wondering if anyone else caught that
I can't find the orginal whats it called as nothing by the name comes up
@@rw9567 temptation
The stabilization is super noticeable in the steadicam/handheld shots
Ok Go has by far the most creative use of video to not just to highlight the songs, but, really show that a video doesn’t have to be high tech to be thoroughly entertaining. Their ability to use force perspective in this video is simply mind boggling. And yes, they do it all in just one take. Crazy!
I don’t know how I never found your beyond incredible videos until this past year?! Each time, you outdo yourselves in one take. Wow!!
They are the most visually stunning, creative works of art and clever, catchy music I have seen/heard in many years! Thank you, for making life a bit easier during these crazy times! ❤️
Tim shaving half his beard off for the video-that’s commitment
GUYS STOP COMMENTING ABOUT THIS BEING A REUPLOAD
this is the OK Go VEVO account, they are just catching up to the OK Go account, which originally uploaded this
Which these reuploads are honestly useless because they consolidated most music accounts
This is their main channel, look it up, their main channel isn't classed as a "VEVO" channel, but they upload their "VEVO" based content here
I totally forgot about them! Ate a bunch of gummies, and the penguins on my bed sheets reminded me of their music. Dont ask questions.
You can tell they nailed it twords the end when their singer smiles naturally. Everything after that is just walking and standing still
応援してます！From JAPAN
Very New Orderish sound. Love it!
it's either a cover or a direct sample of of temptation
Its 2021 now, well done.
I come back to this video every few months and I'm always amazed
*thank you recommendations, you did good this time.*
0:51 Me in quarantine.
Artttttt! Art overloaded. Never failed me once, love you OK Go. ❤
Am I the only one that gets a hard 80s vibe from OK GO!!!!!
3:11 a red miata in the background. Like
We listened to this today in school and I thought it was so good that I had to look it up 😩 this song is actually so underrated
It really is a beautiful song. Very touching.
I've always enjoyed everything they've put out. This one is trippy!
I love their videos so much. The visual illusions are amazing!
everybody remember the videos, nobody remember the songs.... 😂
1:08 * I'm dead XD Seeing this *
I saw this way back at the tv when we were watching. I feel like its been years every time i listen to this song, it sounds so nostalgic : (
My 8 year old showed me this song ❤
got motion sick , 11/10 would stroke out again.
WHY DOES THIS MAKE ME SOOOO EMOTIONAL? I am seriously crying right now, this video and the song make me so happy! I'm so grateful for OKGO! ❤️❤️❤️THANK YOU! ❤️❤️❤️
I think it gave me motion sickness
I love waking up to this. My favorite sad song. 💗
I listened to this back in 2014 good ol days man
Lyrics
Listen I know it’s been hard you know it’s not different for me
We’re less than a zero sum game now and baby we both know that’s not how it’s supposed to be
The writings on the wall it seems like forever since we have a good day the writings on the wall
But I just want to get you highlight
I just want to see some pleasure in your eyes some pleasure in your eyes
You go to Hy and you go to cold and we both fall apart
Then you bring your mind to rest against mine but mine has no sale if there’s no heart
The writings on the wall it seems like forever since we had a good day writings on the wall
But I just want to see you highlight
I just want to see some pleasure in your eyes some pleasure in your eyes
BEAT
Did you bring your mind to rest against fine but the mind has no sale if there’s no heart
The writings on the wall it seems like forever since we had a good day
Writings on the wall
But I just want to get your highlight
I just want to see some pleasure in your eyes some pleasure in your I just want to get you high just want to get your high just want to get your high
Even if it’s the last thing we do together even if it’s the last thing we do together
END CAST
Will you guys reply
Not that I really enjoy this song but... REPLIED
This fude went and actually listened to the lyrics instead of absorbing the amazing video, how is that possible?!
Unless you went to the internet.
I love New Order too!
we watched this is school and that opened my eyes a lot !! the band is awesome, it literally deserved more attention, considering that the art took a lot of time already. they also filmed it in one go, i wonder how long it took !! love uuuu
Why does this only have 1.9 million views!?!?!?! This was an amazing video and an amazing song!!! Sharing this with everyone I know, lol.
Mステからきました。
Sorry i don't speak Spanish
reuploading because they work on project dqt relatable with all MV they made
Amazing! No one has ever came close to the things you guys have touched on! Making History ❤🎨🖌🖼🎵🎹🥁
OK GO was my top artist on Spotify wrapped last year. Pretty sure I'm gonna be a top fan this year too cuz I'm still jamming to these pieces of art
Didn’t they already release this?
PlasmaPhantom 23 yeah they already did. I remember watching it before.
You must be confusing it with another video, this is brand new
# definitely a reupload
Yes. Close to 24M views: ruclips.net/video/m86ae_e_ptU/видео.html
I think's this is for video quality
WTF? Oh No, Here It Goes Again… Obsession? Do What You Want but Get Over It. All Is Not Lost.
i see what u did there
Stevie Wonder could see what he did there.
That's inside down and upside out
可以翻譯一下嗎
this song has been stuck in my head for DAYS
I applaud them and all their help on the incredible time, dedication, creativity and fun this video produced.
