This song has to be the best 'unknown' song ever. No one I know has ever heard of the GROUP never mind this song. I've heard it too many times... far too many. Beautiful

Sia before her recent fame, still fabulous, she's amazing

Sia has one of the most magical, mesmerizing female voices I've ever heard. I think of warm honey when she sings.

May 2024 Still hitting the same old nerve like it did over 20 years ago

I remember this song when it first came out. It's 2022 and it still hits, meaning this woman is beautiful!

I think maybe the video is about marriage turned lacklustre and the frustration that come with it. So their actions end up being sort if cathartic and in the end they feel better as it brings the spark back into the marriage. They also realise they put all their materials before love and when they lose them, all that is left is love - hence them feeling better with each other. Just my interpretation.

2019 and I'm still watching. I love this song & video.

I love this band and this album "Simple things"

February 2022. Still an immaculate track

zero 7 used to be such a great band. COME BACK ZERO 7!!

I never cry but the first time i heard this I really felt something. LOve the contrast of the sad song and the funny video!!! :)

loved her before everyone knew of her. She is amazing. Best female voice (besides Bjork) ever!

+Cher L I'd been a big fan of Bjork. I loved her weirdness but it started to irritate me. Like she was forcing herself too much to complicate all the songs and make them not understandable. I really liked how she kept things simple like on Homogenic when every song was a fucking masterpiece. Or Verspertine's Pagan Poetry which was like the rawest song on the record. I agree with you Bjork's voice is way ahead of everyone, but so is Sia's. They are both weird. Both have funny accent. Both don't want to be famous. Both have an incredible range. But Sia is like a pop version of Bjork. More available for everyone else. Not as much alienated. I like Sia more now cause she keeps things to herself too, covers face and private life but she's open to admit that she was a drug addict and she's still so funny and excited. She laughs all the time. She also does something that everyone else doesn't. She always sings live and always chooses the highest note. Not like Rihanna or other artist who just give up and let the choir or backing track do it. Bjork had a lot of badass high notes but she doesn't really sing them live, she just changes a vocal melody (which is creative too) and lowers it. Sia always sings the chorus of Chandelier and Alive and her voice can do pretty much more things and she has more control. She does her vibrato consciously and it's really fast. I would say that only Beyonce is better if it comes to control (Beyonce is half afro so she kind of had more talent in her blood).

honestly the fact that it's a "mixed couple" kinda throws me. Was it meant to be part of the message in any way, or not? Not that either way is negative, but was mainstream entertainment still stubbornly pretending race didn't matter in the early 2000s?

It's crazy how I discovered this group while watching the movie "Obsessed". I had never heard of them and now I love this group! Great music.

I could listen to this on repeat for hours. Beautiful

I watched this song when this video came out 16 years ago. Made me cry then and I'm crying now all over again. Life was so different back then. I'm so happy to see this video up till this day.

Zero 7 still the best! So many memories - 05/2018

this is an awesome example of how not all conflict is bad conflict. people try so hard to make everything perfect, sometimes you just gotta cut lose and make shit happen [even bad shit :) ]

You need to watch (or read) Fight Club. A much misunderstood polemic about materialism. (But perhaps you already knew that. Apologies if you did.) It's basically Thoreau's "Simplify" mantra, but with the odd bit of blood and very dark humour.

I love this song, the video just tops it off.

I have loved this band since 02. This song (tearfully) was always my favorite on the album. However ? Having seen THIS VIDEO for the first time about 2 years ago? I was able to turn what USE TO BE, a sort of dark song with a REGRETTABLE declaration of LOVE, into sort of a : Less painful ( still beautiful ) bitter sweet portrait of the up's and downs of having someone in your life whom you'd never want to be without..

fell in love with the track first moment i heard. the video is amazing 2.

this song makes me cry a lot :(

Great song. Love this album. The song is very soulful and tragically beautiful as you say. But the video seems to fit the lyrics to me. "I can nearly guarantee/You'll end up with the boot." "I love you, I do./I only make jokes to distract myself from the truth." Seems more to me that the comical nature of the video comes from the "only make jokes" part of the chorus. That's just me though. ::shrug:: Great video for a great song imho. :)

Ever since I first heard a Zero 7 song (Destiny), I've been hooked. Love the group, love Sia. Wish I could catch them do a show here in America. UK rocks!

J'aime beaucoup le Groupe Zero 7 et "Distractions" entre autres. Cette vidéo démontre jusqu'à quel point les relations de couple peuvent dégénérer, exagérément bien sûr, mais qui n'a pas déjà eu envie....Merci. Belle distraction...♥

This was a WONDERFUL video! And such a beautiful song. I love Sia!

I laughed when she did that things to her husband and smile when her husband cut her dog's hair. Even though they fight and destroyed their own home, they are still love each other. But what really explained everything is the lyrics. I like this !

Omg, the video is so funny. The madness of the human mind. 😂

I bet that was a lot of fun to make.

mysterious yet beautiful.

This is a rare glimpse in the the quality of zero 7. Ive had a personal relationship with this music for years. I listened to all of their albums in order one night, & really, I wish they had made music videos for all of them. amazing. simple amazing.

i'm obsessed with this song at the moment.. it's so haunting, yet completely beautiful!

hilarious video... such a great song.. i find every song of zero 7 to be the best song ever, and then i end up hearing the next one and i go like damn ! thats awesome! love zero 7!!!!

I listen to that song for years and I never watched the video till now...and I really didn´t expect something like this. You´re right, BeirutWedding.

Still one of the best songs. Love it...

March 2022, still loving Sia's voice like the first time I listened to this. What a timeless track.

obviously the video clip doesnt suit the song; thats the point. "I love you, I love you, I love you, I do I only make jokes to distract myself From the truth, from the truth." the songs all about how she loves someone, but no matter how much she tries not to, she cant stop.
