A new shins song is equivalent to a new GoT episode for me.

Nope. GoT is a bogus profit mill. Yes, I one of thos "assholes" who has read the books.
im a simple man, I see the shins, I click like.
All their albums are amazing. Absolute insane how they managed to make FIVE masterpieces, as far as i’m concerned.
The Shins are the most amazing band. I wish everbody could understand just how talented this band really is. Love the new Album !
This is easily one of the most creative music videos I've seen. Simple, but really freaking awesome

OK Go's video was wild. That's absolutely amazing.
The changing checkers pieces is so impressive, cant imagine the amount of work/attention to detail this took!
It's official, this is my new favorite band. Congratulations.
Was the best night of my life, August 22nd 2017, I get emotional just thinking about how wonderful they were live Thankyou so much for existing, best band ever

Wow - just wow. What dedication to execute such a brilliant idea. Hats off guys.
Lyrics here! "Half A Million" I make myself a promise Then break it every night I'm feeling loose and life don't make no sense I use my brains to build a fence 'Round the claim I stake I take the drugs but the drugs won't take I took a pledge to grow up Then drank enough to make me throw up On all my dearly disappointed friends I'm just too lazy to make amends With you anyway That's why the pattern still remains There's half a million things that I'm supposed to be A shelter in the nighttime A punk running free And if it gets too deep I reach for my guitar And if I try hard I find something I can really drop into And everything that was is just a thing that I can sing Everything is something next to nothing As crazy as it seems, you give it up and you are free Another candle to blow out New set of dark thoughts to shut out And everybody's got their remedies But nothing works like chemistry So raise a toast No more sipping from the fire hose There's half a million things that I'm supposed to be A shelter in the nighttime A punk running free And if it gets too deep I reach for my guitar And if I try hard I find something I can really drop into And everything that was is just a thing that I can sing Everything is something next to nothing As crazy as it seems, you give it up and you are free There's half a million things that you're supposed to be A virgin in the moonlight A freak on the scene And if it gets too deep You reach for your guitar And if you try hard There's half a million things that I'm supposed to be A shelter in the nighttime A punk running free And if it gets too deep I reach for my guitar And if I try hard There's half a million things that I'm supposed to be A shelter in the nighttime A punk running free And if it gets too deep I reach for my guitar And if I try hard
Theres half a millions things that I'm supposed to be - >A shelter in the nighttime >A punk running free And if it gets too deep I reach for my guitar And if I try hard

I find something I can really drop into, and everything that was is just a thing that I can sing. Everything is something next to nothing. As crazy as it seems, you give it up, and you are free.
The stop motion..so smooth..

Underrated?? I saw them sell out an amphitheater show a couple months ago! Not to mention they're a Grammy-nominated band. We must have different definitions of underrated I guess ha

I didn't know that. maybe they aren't underrated in that sense. but this bands genius is not always recognized, and that's where I personally think they are underrated.

Look Behind You I suppose within the world of mainstream music they're underrated. They're quite famous and they tend to get positive reviews, but they're no where near as famous as artists like Beyoncé or Taylor Swift. Fuck the music industry lol

WHERE HAS THIS BAND BEEN ALL MY LIFE?!
the shins, you never disappoint me.
This is going to be one of those music videos that never gets old. Reminds me of the Modes Mouse Float On video.
This is AMAZING! Love that all the band members are in this!
Yeah! New Shins music video
Realy cool and creative. Lovely 👌
Whew. The hard work put into this video is amazing. Amazing song as always. Man, I love The Shins.
This album has been a slow burn. Now, almost a year later, I have been able to appreciate how fine an album this is. Mercer managed to blend the more refined port of morrow sound with the busy, grungy sound of the first two albums quite successfully.
this deserves more views
The creativity of this music video is on par with take on me
Amazing. Love the Shins!!!
The Shins are AMAZING! That is all
Amazing song, amazing video
Always the bests!
can't stop watching!
This is so goddamn creative what the fuck
I love the creativity of this video!
SUCH an awesome video... such a creative group. Cheers!
amazing!!!!!! I love it so much
They really go above and beyond...
They deserve everything, everything. Cool down to earth guys playing awesome songs, release the doves!!!!!
That was great!! Been a fan for a decade!
Every new song they send becomes my favorite one
Great song and great visuals
Loves from Istanbul . Wish that see you here♥️
I loved it so much!
Great track, great concept, excellent execution.
That was awesome!
What a beautiful video!
Each time i watch it, i get happier
I just realised that at 1:22 there's half a million candles. Also if all this was really done in stop motion, then this is the greatest music video ever made.
Love it! 🎆
nice video james !!! that creativity !
Gotta love it
Modern art
Holy shout. Its AWESOME!!!
Great song 👍🏻👍🏻
That's just so beautiful. The music, the lyrics and the video

Great song but what a waste of The Shins stickers. Wish I had one of those for my binder.
Can't wait to see you guys in Phoenix. Hopefully my first concert will be very memorable.
