Well put my friend. I feel like, music has been created by human beings for eons to tell stories and raise spirits. Modest Mouse to me is one of few bands around that seem to be carrying that tradition. They are a continuation of the reason music was created.

to me this is further proof that modest mouse is one of the best artists of our generation. Even after being signed to a large record label they haven't lost what makes them them (which is what happens to most bands.) I must have heard this song a million times, and its still always sounds fresh, and 20, 40, or even 100 years from now i bet that it will still have lyrics that will be of the present time. Modest Mouse is without a doubt timeless.

Whether or not the kid is truly dead is open for interpretation, the life support still showed a heart beat and normal breathing, but he could be in a permanent coma or some other form of brain damage; but I think that's all aside from the point of the video.

This song hits me every time..almost every single time I hear it, I just break down. I rethink everything that was good that ever happened to me, and I say to myself, "was it all for nothing?"This song makes me chill. it gives me goosebumps..We Treat Mishaps Like Sinking Ships, and We don't want to be out to drift, well I can see it in your eyes like I taste your lips, we both know were better than this.My Favorite Line...ever.

Yeah, since the video is playing backwards, the kid dies before all of this.

I think maybe the mom is in denial after the kid dies, and takes him out of the hospital to do things with him that they used to do.

Seems like the child is on life support in the video, and the mom would rather her son die in a little motel room than to suffer in a hospital. Depressing and genius at the same time :(
HackedV2 (January 5, 2009 at 11:31 am)
Maybe.
HackedV2 (January 5, 2009 at 11:31 am)
Possibly a divorced couple are fighting while their child is ill, and they won't reconcile, so the child dies.
Meh.
Meh.

Took me forever to realize everything was going backwards. Pretty sad. Depressing. Just what I like. It's funny when he's going up the spiral slide . . . cracked me up. Ooh! Magic erasing crayon!
