Modest Mouse 13. People As Places As People
The Next Album I Will Upload Is
The Lonesome Crowded West

That interlude is fucking killer! So beautiful!!

Awesome CD to drive to!! Haha!!

Issac Brock is what I strive to be

All I was doing in the summer of 1993 was house sitting in Hollywood. My Dad and Grandmother had to auction off the estate and all the belongings in that house and I was supposed to consolidate all of it. I looked stupid even back then. I wore tan shorts and T shirts and wore combat boots and a black biker jacket. At one time I gave myself a mohawk. I was also fat and unattractive and had a black beard. My friends from Monterey came to visit and I met Bill Edwards, a screen extra in movies. I just went for walks around Hollywood during the day until I got mugged at gunpoint. I stayed up all night and watched TV and slept during the day. That was pretty much what happened.

Have you ever eaten a yellow watermelon?

Now California has been lying to Seattle for 38 years straight! All they do is give Seattle orders and suggestions and the dumb shits believe all of it. No Seattleite is ever ever going to be a famous Hollywood star! I do not get why people believe this shit! I live din Hollywood and I wanted no part of being famous there ever! If I could not be famous in Hollywood what makes Seattleites think they will be? Especially these lily white girls from Northgate!

You know what this mean in a literal format all of those people on planet Earth,the space station and in prison






Are all actually people carrying different nature's that are one of a kind

"people you loved but you didn't quite know" that hits me hard...

Meeee to

comment sections on music are cool, makes sense to talk about music , not so much anything else

Modest Mouse brings me some sweet nostalgia but not of memories, of feelings. it is like a feeling of freedom that I haven't felt in so long.

Ashley.

Really good song the way he performed it

This and a life like weeds get so close to this intangible place

The forlorn feeling is to much and not enough

this song makes me feel extremely bitter in ways i could never fully express

Same. It breaks my heart

DA best!!!

Slightly demented romance
Still a romantic song for me bittersweet and all

Despite the futility of life, (which I understood when I was young.) I was not aware of just how dense the physics was embedded into all the music I listened to.

After I started seeing subatomic diagrams of particles, and wave function examples of the QED in music and everyday life, my reasons to want to die turned into a negative value. I wanted to know what I was missing. That thought was persevered, but the depression I had wasn't better, it was far worse even.. I just keep asking myself.. But what if..

Despite the futility of life, our agony is truth, it's our connection to the living. I think of the world when I hurt, and keep on existing.

Some would see their younger self as cocky or ignorant, but as I get older I realize more often how important it is to be good to yourself, too. Kids make each decision the way they felt was right, with the information given by adults.
Little Rob was a genius.

What the fuck did I just read?

Edgy edgy boi

Lay off the meth for a while.

last 44 seconds is the addictive part

Fuck! I love this song.

If you're already there, well you probly don't know

The intro remis a me a little of The expolsions in the sky vibe. Of course the impression fades as the song goes but still.

God that intro is just pure fucking gold. I would like to see a movie trailer for a good movie use this song

thanks girl

This whole album is a gem

It was the first modest mouse album I bought

I think its their best!

@Steven Bridgewater no you

empathy and personification - immortalization of human understanding

I hardly had places that I wanted to go, cuz you're the places that I wanted to go

Brings tears to my eyes every time. Such a deep song.

"Like the wind across strings that had finally let go"

idk what is but that first 15 secs of this song is so addictive.

the 3:44 minutes would I say

Like a Kite String that finally LET GO we fucked up the funkshun we fucked up the flow now lets go

Hi Jacoba (:

I'm gay ad

This song is one of the reasons that this is my favorite album, always helps me get to to sleep ;)

Type of song to make you look at the stars in the dark sky and just smile 😊

even though its about saving trees lol

Yo I love this song ! I was just listening to a beat that was sampled by this and I have immediately fell in love with it !! I need to start listening to modest mouse again .... Live my old days again 😏😂✌

never assign any music to a person, that person break your heart and listen to this music never becomes the same. i love this music but i cant listen to it without having the feeling that glass pieces are coming into my heart.

Haha at the comments, but yes i agree but after awhile it goes away and u like the song and peoples again in my case forgive and forget but dont always forget

Yeah but that's just the song to that part of your life. Look at your life as a movie.

I shall never assign modest mouse to anyone but myself

It's not a choice mate

Tanguo I love feeling like shit!! That’s the great thing about life!! Feeling like shit!!

Modest mouse + Drugs = Success

my sophomore year summed up in one youtube comment

yes sir

I started really listening to them back when I was using and taking everything I could get my hands on as a young teen...a bigger success is coming back to their music a while later when sober. The once-stifled emotions rush up like a flood in the best and worst ways. Jaw dropping.

Destiny Seay well put

we are your ripchord

love everything they do, need to see em live. hard to meet a female with the same taste.

+Joshua W lol girls love this band in my experience

I met one

I don´t know, this song hits me man. Hits like a hurricane. Isaac lyrics always left me thinking.

+Tertulio Eustaquio Yes!!!

Tertulio Eustaquio like a hurricane

Tertulio Eustaquio issacs the best modern lyricist In my opinion the best since classic rock anoyway

Doesn't this song kinda have a Feelies flow to it?

I love finding songs like this.

Death in a noose is a good name for a fuck boy who wouldn't even be there when the neck snapped.

This song continues to carry me through tough times. Beautiful. 

Just made my own meaning from this. The people that we always wanted is the people we wanted in ourselves. We're all sniffling and whimpering for somebody to know, for places to go (note, places being can be an archtype for culture, personality, etc) and we're the places and the people that we wanted to know. Take that, Freud!

It's not the intention, but we let it all go
Well it messed up the function and sure fucked up the flow
I hardly had people that I needed to know
Cause you're the people that I wanted to know!!!

Yes I believe in some of them, I saw them in Washington in 2008 or 09 and i do remember this being part of the show. It was a big show tho, maybe some smaller gigs they may have not played it

Do they even play this in gigs?

Truly beautiful

song: "and there were no places we wanted to go."
advertisement: "come to australia!"
bad advertisement placement

Fuck the hgc 1x plus. If I wanted to hear about that surely I would have looked it up. Fucking youtube making money off a band that doesnt even want it.

Im here, where i want to be.

Omg, my friend told me about this song, I love it! I really do.

I know right? :3

Yay for tags!

hey we'll skip the shitty olypics.. and the hollows and the ray family... fuckers .... sell outs and tunrn coats..!!!! no; fuck off coniie!!!! and julie hollows i cant stand a single one of you!

are you ok

Man, this song is awesome, I wish they would play stuff like this on the radio instead of the crap they normally put on.

Brendan Maloney The great demon Moloch (or greater appeal,it depends) needs to be pleasured!

A M A Z I N G N E S S

@Guercinator I always thought the father resembled Bob Weir somewhat.

I hardly had places that I needed to go
Cause you're the places that I wanted to go.
<3 Kristina

@OSCARDABOSS69 check now ...

Hey jackass jk its only 17,955 views so yeah.... lol

@msjessicarabbit92 I know right. That father couldn't just let it go!

TREE MAN! :'(

@W0nd3r4ids4369 couldn't have said it better myself

For all of you who think this song has deep lyrics, listen and interpret some of their older works. Not saying this isn't a great song, it's just I'm a fan of Modest Mouse because of Lonesome Crowded West, This is a Long Drive for Someone with Nothing to Think About, ect. This song may 'sound' better, meaning it's more clean cut, but their older songs have lots of meaning. And to all those fans who dislike their new songs, that's just a shame, all their music is fantastic.

Their whole discography is definitely full of philosophical beauty, and the older stuff does win me over a wee bit more, but I can't help but bring up "Parting Of The Sensory". That song is perhaps the most beautiful musical meditation I've heard on death.

@1Babyboy100 i'm sorry if this is weird, but you're not from Coeur d' Alene are you? because i knew a Nico here that passed away earlier this year....

@1Babyboy100 wait, wut? r u talking to me or a friend/family member?

i love you Nico. and miss you with all my hart. and think of you more than you think ps .x.o.xo 4 ever

@ThousandthSkies

Yep. That's probably the best lyric written in the last decade. What a great song.

One of my all time favorites. This song makes me melancholy in the best way possible. <3

I need a new modest mouse something bad.

wish the official video had this quality of sound, that one sounds like shit, thank you for posting

@ShadowIceDragon no problem man

xD Wow. Great song, thanks for putting this up.
