I finally met her tonight after once again, a phenomenal show. (Not my first time seeing her). We chatted for a bit; she thought she knew me...she recognized me.. We got a photograph together. She signed a CD. I cried. Basically, it was the most epic moment of my life thus far.
That Awesome! I have met So many celebrities. I worked in a very popular coffee shop near Paramount Studio. The best were always the ones everyone knows. I could mention names, I was just making them coffee. The worst were the local news "celebrities"
Also its interesting to observe you dont actually hear them crying and screaming, you only hear her singing. Its like shes got the control, perhaps, or that shes tuned out to the lies of their screams and crying. All their crying and dramatics falls on deaf ears, literally. This video is absolutely fascinating, so much in it to read.
I'm 15, i love st. vincent's music and she is probably the prettiest woman i have ever seen, today i was in new york city and i looked across the street and saw st. vincent i was so excited i, it took me about three blocks but i was finally able to get up to her, she is even more beautiful in person and very nice
It's sonically bracing..the musical equivalent of having your alarm clock replaced by a guy who wakes you up by dumping you off a cliff into the ocean...I like it. More please.
she is so amazing and intense live. i saw her at the El Rey Theatre in LA a couple weeks ago. The audience was practically hypnotized during some of her songs.
I have the 2nd release/album/cd, and can't wait to get the debut, which was out of stock when I hit the record store. God, what a talent. I got introduced to St. Vincent watching Austin City Limits a few years ago; this was during her first album/cd tour. I hope she can continue with this direction. Better than most out there right now. GREAT LYRICS AND GUITAR STYLE. Thanks for sharing. Tony from Sherwood, Oregon.
@@voodoosleeper I think she is still great, and I think she has evolved. Still has the essence of what got her on the map. Loved her on Saturday Night Live.
one of the best albums yet this year - this song doesn't even do it justice. so good that i don't want to detract attention from how incredibly talented she is, but good god she's hot too.
#danthemanplaylists LYRICS: You're a supplement, you're a salve You're a bandage, pull it off I can quit you, cut it out You're a patient, iron lung You're a cast signed broken arm You're an actor out of work You're a liar and that's the truth You're an extra lost in the scene Ooh, ooh You're a boxer in the ring With brass knuckles underneath You're the curses through my teeth You're the laughter, you're the obscene Ooh, ooh You're a supplement, you're a salve You're a bandage, pull it off I think I love you, I think I'm mad You're a cast signed broken arm You're an actor out of work I think I love you, I think I'm mad You're a boxer in the ring With brass knuckles underneath I think I love you, I think I'm mad
i think that all of these people crying in front of her symbolizes all of the frustration and difficulty into loving herself and she is just sitting there talking to them stuff that she keeps telling herself. it's like she's all alone there and they're all what's in her head.
i think that the meaning of the song revolves around herself, not anybody else. she hasn't yet accepted herself as she is internally, so the 'actor out of work' represents the false image that she creates to comply with what is expected of her. it's like, the whole song is talking to the made up version of herself she's had to take on out of fear of not being respected and tolerated as her honest, true persona. essentially, the entire album, actor, is about figuring out who you truly are inside and being comfortable with expressing that outwardly.
Pretty much I found who they were on Sunday!! I was changing the channels on my tv. when i heard her sing, I was like WOW!!! I loved it!! So Now I know more of their music. SOunds AWESOME!
I like the casting session idea, getting them all to put on shows of fake emotion sort of ties into the theme of the song, about someone who's a liar and a cheat that she can't help having feelings for. Great song off a great album!
Nah, Annie Clark's been really brilliant for YEARS already. The collaboration with David Byrne is really recent awesome news to a lot of people who've been fans back when she was Sufjan Stevens' guitarist and hadn't even recorded her own albums yet. When I was a teenager Talking Heads was one of my favorite bands, and at 41 I'm a huge St. Vincent fan, so her and David Byrne getting together is really epic for me.
I love how the top two comments are about the top two comments. Just kidding. It's kind of annoying how people don't comment on the video, but other people's comments. Here, I love this video. This song. She is the most beautiful person I've ever seen. Happy birthday.
To me she seems like an artists who will evolve throughout time and I wouldn't expect any album exactly like the last.
can't believe you said this 11 years ago! how right you were
Aged like fine wine!
and u were so right
This comment aged so beautifully
Show this comment to all the people who say “i miss the old st Vincent” whenever she puts out new content lmao
That was the most beautiful thing that I have ever digitally witnessed.
Nyla M groan....
Yeah. I mean it was a bit much.
hAH
Ooo a Regina Spektor fan
I SEE WHAT U DID THERE LOLL

That’s so cool. Lucky!
still the most epic moment?
That Awesome! I have met So many celebrities. I worked in a very popular coffee shop near Paramount Studio. The best were always the ones everyone knows. I could mention names, I was just making them coffee. The worst were the local news "celebrities"
This song - and St. Vincent's work in general - is relentlessly amazing. Can't get it out of my head - in a good way. Am so glad to have found her!
AGREE. I'm wondering if "The Nowhere INN" (directed by Carrie Brownstone, "Portlandia"), is relevatory. Or mysterious. Or strange. LOL.
this song is one of the most artful songs ever. comparing a deceitful lover to an actor out of work is so genius
First St. Vincent song I ever heard and fan ever since!
To you, I'd recommend "Shura - What's it gonna be".
Now you
Same here
Ironically the actors out of work in this video are all actually actors working
We got an Einstein over here.
+John Louie haha you're awesome!
+Lynda Lalich p.s rekt
holy shit lol mind = blown
Sean Justice What are you talking about man?

WOW. Good read on it!

You got to meet her? That's Awesome!
Her live performances are amazing. Her band is amazing. I am amazed now. I was amazed from the start... when I first heard... xox
The two gasps of breath at the start of this song are flawless.
This is my favorite StV song ... today. It's my eleventh favorite ... I keep changing my mind.
Love how short, sweet, and punchy this song is. Gets me every time.
It's sonically bracing..the musical equivalent of having your alarm clock replaced by a guy who wakes you up by dumping you off a cliff into the ocean...I like it. More please.
One of the best music videos ever made, FIGHT ME
WeeklyComedian No, I want to give you a hug for saying that.
Dear St. Vincent...
I think I love you, I think I'm maaaad
This is hypnotic. And the clip. It's like AMAZING. Just the people crying, it feels like their acting is REAL. A bloody good song.
I just heard this song on WFUV and I LOVE this song. WOW!!
I love seeing them all preparing to cry. A very clever music vid!
that jawline and cheekbones can cut glass
i think i've watched this...about...7 times in a row now? wow she is amazing.
Man she's such a good guitarist, and she's gorgeous.
I think I love St. Vincent. She is so beautiful.
Oh my God she's literally so cute and pretty in this vid like wow
She is so talented and beautiful. I must say I am slightly envious.
This makes me feel alive.
As an actor this was my soundtrack for this quarantine 😂

Tony, it's been twelve years. What do you think of the records she's made since this one?
@@voodoosleeper I think she is still great, and I think she has evolved. Still has the essence of what got her on the map. Loved her on Saturday Night Live.
God, 00:56 where she does a subtle head bobbing motion with that smile is so adorable
Just discovered St. Vincent two weeks ago...cannot stop listening to Actor now!
Loved loved loved the show in Hoxton tonight. Just wonderful. Thanks for signing my CD :-)
One of the best songs of all time, in my opinion 😌
Great song, interesting video
I love how the beautiful verses are the ones full of the most passionate and "ugly" human sentiments. Well done video!
the music video adds so much to the song it fits perfectly!!
To apaixonada nessa mulher ♡♡ MDS QUE VOZ MARAVILHOSA ♡
WHAT a FUCKING great ARTIST! ST Vincent is intense, funny, witty, complex. Did I MISS ANYTHING? LOL.
actually her best song ever
one of the best albums yet this year - this song doesn't even do it justice. so good that i don't want to detract attention from how incredibly talented she is, but good god she's hot too.
God this video is amazing, the ending gives me chills each time

LYRICS:
You're a supplement, you're a salve
You're a bandage, pull it off
I can quit you, cut it out
You're a patient, iron lung
You're a cast signed broken arm
You're an actor out of work
You're a liar and that's the truth
You're an extra lost in the scene
Ooh, ooh
You're a boxer in the ring
With brass knuckles underneath
You're the curses through my teeth
You're the laughter, you're the obscene
Ooh, ooh
You're a supplement, you're a salve
You're a bandage, pull it off
I think I love you, I think I'm mad
You're a cast signed broken arm
You're an actor out of work
I think I love you, I think I'm mad
You're a boxer in the ring
With brass knuckles underneath
I think I love you, I think I'm mad
Thank you.
Woo, this is great, Annie's voice is so great and the song is quirky :D Guess whos going to be listening to St.Vincent for a week!
This has been my jam lately
i'm crying while watching this right now, its so beautiful.

one of the best music videos I've ever seen.
15 years later and this song is still badass.
Pretty much I found who they were on Sunday!! I was changing the channels on my tv. when i heard her sing, I was like WOW!!! I loved it!! So Now I know more of their music. SOunds AWESOME!

GOD! I started crying after this.
This hits the acting field on the head! So awesome.
Deep. Fascinating. Music. Art.
Great song, amazing video! Double thumbs up!
i always think about this video when i see actors cry
Wow the cry acting floored me once they got started. Pretty impressive, and awesome video.
Wow, there's so much sparkle about this song. It's really addictive, I agree.
I like the casting session idea, getting them all to put on shows of fake emotion sort of ties into the theme of the song, about someone who's a liar and a cheat that she can't help having feelings for. Great song off a great album!

Not left in the dust. It takes time to get noticed if you don't have something flashy to put in peoples faces. I LOVE St. Vincent.
I really love the vintage style of music on this album.
Wow I don't know how I waited to watch the clip for this song but it's great!!
her album is BEAUTIFUL
i absolutely LOVE THIS SONG!!! so amazing.
Confirmed new fan!
Strangely beautiful song - immaculately filmed!
I'd say that they're the best, and have been for quite a while.
I am obsessed with this song.
I can just watch this over and over.

I love how the top two comments are about the top two comments. Just kidding. It's kind of annoying how people don't comment on the video, but other people's comments. Here, I love this video. This song. She is the most beautiful person I've ever seen. Happy birthday.
a mitt romney ad was the ad for this video. I wanna cry
I saw her live 3 years ago and was right up against the stage in a private ballroom. She's beautiful.
Yeah, awesome, brilliant!
2018 & this song's still on my playlist... I guess some songs just never get old 😂
Even though I knew it was an audition the entire time, some of these reactions were incredibly convincing.
from her face to her voice... just wonderful!
This video is so uncomfortably awesome.
she has such an alien look to her.... I love this vid!
Great song, great video, done by a talented, & great artist making great art, right in front of our eyes, & ears, love it ! Annie, you Rock ! Bob. G
brilliant!
I'm so happy that I ran into this band. just awesome.
that little smile at 0:56 stole my heart
The beginning is such a Stop Making Sense reference.
My Autobiography A Fanfic Fuck Yes.
My Autobiography A Fanfic nod almost as big as byrnes suit
She's so awesome!
I need this perfection. NOW.
Awesome song, awesome video. One of the best I've seen in awhile.

Thanks, Madame St Vincent! I love you too, with all my harken. :-)
