I honestly think Josh should try write and release of book of poetry. He has a beautiful mind. ...Like Clockwork saved me from suicide before. His words are so powerful.
QOTSA has helped so many people. Like Clockwork was an unbelievable album, so unique. I love all their albums and I am excited to see what Josh does in future. I know a lot of people weren't happy with villains but Josh can't keep making he same music over and over or they would sound like every other band. But it's good to know that it helped you, what was your favourite from Like Clockwork?

OMFG! I've been listening to this on repeat for ages ... trying to work out who Josh sounds like here. I sussed it! Close your eyes and listen to the whole track. He sounds SO much like Bowie it's amazing!
How to describe, it is what it is, a visual feast of commentary, symbolism and challenging scenes...... reminiscent of a Bowie construction but with a unique flavour. I like it but it is perplexing and hilarious in its construction. I'd like to see more of what these guys can put together, quite a departure.....
@@absoluteprawn3805 Fun Machine would have made Lullabies if they hadn't misplaced the original copy. Everything Homme touches is Gold. I really love all of his music. Kyuss, QOTSA, Crooked Vultures, Desert Sessions everything 🏜️🤘🤘
I know, I love it! I'm still sticking to my original theory that the lyrics portray a nihilist's interpretation of Death who is fed up with his job and just starts killing whoever he wants
Çağlar Keser it was confirmed in an interview somewhere that it was an outtake from Clockwork that he could never finish for that album. It’s very Kalopsia.
Man, about died when I first saw both the moments of :19 where camera pans out to showing Homme from behind pissing on the Nazi in a strait jacket and then the pause at 2:16 where he makes that damn face while turning around supposedly falling, lmao! The man is just funny as hell! I met him after a show in Indy back in Oct. 2017 and I’m telling ya, while he was standing around talking to us outside after the show, he was just as funny then as he always seems to be. Really cool guy with a fabulous sense of some dry wit humor!
If anyone doesn't know Carla from AUTOLUX go check them out RIGHT NOW. She's playing drums on this track and some others. Incredible drummer and AUTOLUX is bad ass and needs your attention.
2020, trying to find some decent rock around. Something fresh, something surprising. Can't find any. Then I thought that maybe QOTSA might have had some surprise for me... And then realized I missed this volume of the desert sessions. I'm a happy man now.
Let's admit to ourselves that we all needed a roller skating Josh Homme in our lives 🖤
Two of my loves coming together! It's magical!
Yeah, definitely a cool moment that no doubt caught me off guard with a wtf? 🤔😂😂🤘🏻🖤
Second that.🙋🏻♂️
You think there’s some outtakes with Josh falling and busting his ass??
Yes sir
Almost sounds like a B-side to ...Like Clockwork. Great!
It would have fit in there so beautifully
Yeah, Kalopsia vibes.
It was actually confirmed, in one of the DS interviews, that this song was an unfinished project from Like Clockwork sessions
So spot on!
My god us the sun
I honestly think Josh should try write and release of book of poetry. He has a beautiful mind.
...Like Clockwork saved me from suicide before. His words are so powerful.

Sorry you felt so low. I've been there too. Stay strong brother x
I feel (a perfect Circle) was also a really big go to for me but man Josh can sing especially on acoustic sessions
I love the community his music their music spawned. We all love it and nothing more matters. Stay strong man, glad you're still here.
Exactly the same story with me... I love them. I hope one day I meet Josh.
Josh Homme is the only person who can say like a boss in 2020 and sound cool
A fucking boss
Yup.
Bizarre surrealism that only Homme can deliver. And who knew he was such an elegant roller skater?
Josh flailing his arms on roller skates is more cool than I'll ever be.
Also just realized I'll listen/watch literally anything that this dude does.
Flailing? Are we watching the same video?
Such a Bowie style, love it!!!
This song definitely sounds like a leftover demo from the *Like Clockwork* sessions.
Not that I'm complaining about that whatsoever.
I am
I'd love a follow up to Like Clockwork...great album.
Josh on skates is a mood.
According to the video message, it's an idea. Skate around all of the bullshit carefree... Easier said than done.
[Verse 1]
Aimlessly traipsing the garden of Eden
Hitchhiking hand is all thumbs
Careless in camouflage
Cool as chameleons
Let the boogeyman come
Nitpicking naysayers barking like beagles
Through the tall grass of poisonous tongues
Slide down your throat like
An antidote you can quote
Fits like a glove
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Tightwads and nitwits and critics and heels
Correcting your grammar for fun
Metamorphosis is painfully real
Ain't no other way to become
[Chorus]
I know it's easier said than done
You can't break a deal if it ain't never real
Boy, let the boogeyman come
[Verse 2]
On roller skates carving smooth shapes past the gates
Just boogeying like a fucking boss
Slide down your throat like
An antidote you can quote
No extra cost
[Bridge]
Only give a little bit
Take it all, take it off
Only give a little bit
Take it all, take it off
Only give a little bit
Take it all, take it off
Only give a little bit
Take it all, take it
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Not one more day as Heaven's valet
Forget-me-nots coming undone
Stoners heave rocks at mansions of mirror
With glassholes as big as the sun
[Chorus]
I know it's easier said than done
All of existence has always been free
Why listen to anyone?
Ain't no other way to become
Slipped staring straight into the sun
Thanks man!!
Thx
Wich of the paragraphe you like the most?
👍❤️
@@DepletedMan All of them
If were told nothing, eyes closed and just listening you'd nearly swear it was bowie. And I love it.
yes!!!⚡🎧♥️
me too...sounds like a perfect Bowie hommage
And if you watched it without sound it could be Pnk Floyd.
Josh > Bowie
@@parallax5395In your wildest most drug induced dreams.
Josh had two paths in life. Musician or linebacker. I'm glad he made the right choice
This video is extremely GIF-able.
someone get on it!
Someone made beautiful gif sets on tumblr,... if anyone’s still looking.
“Picture yourself in a boat on a river…” vibe!🤩 Love it!!!🖤❤️❤️🔥
If I ever shake my addictions this will be my theme song for life
Good luck. It’s very tough
It's tough but not as tough as you.
How’s it going?
@@boneytony5041 hahah
@@larsholand hohoho
Josh doing interpretive dance on old school roller skates, he has SUCH a large frame!!!!!!
I can't unsee Josh Homme roller skating with ease and grace. I'm so grateful🥳
Josh’s voice is incredible in this , great song with a typically haunting sound , excellent
How can this guy keep blowing my mind time after time!
I can't stress this enough . Josh is sooo handsome
Truly
I agree, no homo or homophobe.
creepy ass perv
looks like trump
Ginger elvis
Watching Josh skate and hearing him sing is life! ⚡️
Before today I had no idea that I needed a whole video full of Josh Homme's amazing roller-skating skills, but here we are.
Bit of David Bowie in this
pirate style and son's It’s very Bowie isn’t it. If some played it to me and said it was Bowie I’d believe them.
'Villains' is also quite Bowie-e....
TCV's Gunman too.
Josh's voice has always reminded me of Bowie. Also that dude from Stereophonics sounds like Rod Stewart and the singer from A sounds like Sting.
Truer words have never been spoke
Actually one of the best music videos I've seen in a long time. And goddamn it Josh is smooth.
WOW!!! found this guy recently, really loving his stuff
Why is Joshua Homme the best thing to ever happen to Rock?
He's not... Is a good one but not the best
@@abusabsi him and Jack White in last 20 years
@@seethoseareyourtearsman.1758
Mmmm
I think Buzz Osborne and Maynard are much better... But it's just my opinion
@@seethoseareyourtearsman.1758 .....Jack White?
No one knows.
Keep going Josh, just keep going mate. Outstanding piece of art.
I hope he never stops
Seeing Josh show off his roller skate skills is my highlight for 2020 so far!!
Mr. Homme you are and forever will be one of my favorite singer/songwriters. I put you in a list that only the best get on.
Reminds me of Pink Floyd's Fletcher memorial home in the video concept...Homme skating around is just hypnotic
Josh is getting more beautiful is one observation, another one is that I love the artistic creation of those characters.
Well, that was mesmerizing!
I think like clockwork was a masterpiece by far the best rock record in the last 20 years.
Awesome, glad we got a video out of this awesome track
The most honest lyrics in a bunch of years
Gorgeous video for a gorgeous song.
Producer: how many tabs of acid must we take to shoot the clip?
Josh: yes
Ok, I did not know I needed to see Josh Homme roller skating, but I did. This is wonderful!
Literally sitting here crying my lord this is beautiful.
I am soo pleasantly surprised by Josh's skating skills😂👌🏻
The master of melody /harmony.. with a twist of polka ❤️
Love this song....Josh speaks my soul.
I got a Pink Floyd the wall vibes with the lyrics, sounds like a story.
David Bowie for myself.
I see the Bowie influence, you are correct. Dark kinda, like his last album before he passed.
Was feeling Floyd too
Nah!
@@mArs_616 lol ok. Just an opinion, what do you think it reminds you of?
Josh has officially lost his mind... And I love it
Wow they got arrow from star crawler!
Phil 6669 I know, she’s so cool!
Was she doing vocals too?
Jim Dominguez I doubt it I didn’t see her in the credits of the album
Great vision Chapman.
Beautiful!
Been a fan for a long time. And I always trust Q.o.t.S.A. delivers quality. Thanks for your efforts and work folk!
GIVE IT LOVE, we know it’s easier said then done but WE CAN GET THIS TYPE OF MUSIC BACK.
It never went anywhere it's right here
The service industry loves You, Joshua, but You already know, and this track? You never dissapoint! 🖤🖤🖤
David Bowie would be proud
OMFG! I've been listening to this on repeat for ages ... trying to work out who Josh sounds like here. I sussed it! Close your eyes and listen to the whole track. He sounds SO much like Bowie it's amazing!
he sounds like Joshua Homme. that's why it's so good.
I did not see this coming
*Nazi this coming
It's the Desert Sessions. Assume nothing, accept everything.
The bogeyman did
Lie likes music I should have expected to see you here
@@thedude2122 Yes you should've lol

This video is so incredibly bonkers and I love it
Amazing Parallels on our time in this video. Thank you QOTSA.
This confirms that we need more roller skating in our lives.
His voice
Oh my...
I'm saved
OMG that's one of the best things i've ever seen. Crazy fucking genius Homme
The talent in this man.... my God!
Loving this.....not what I expected but I AM LOVING THIS!!!!!
The world needs a Josh Homme movie. That is to say a movie by Josh Homme.
I loved desert sessions but I think this was my favourite from the newest volume.
Me too. This song would have fit in so beautifully with Like Clockwork
@@jimreed2138 True, I wish their b sides were on streaming services. For example the fun machine is an awesome one
@@absoluteprawn3805 Fun Machine would have made Lullabies if they hadn't misplaced the original copy. Everything Homme touches is Gold. I really love all of his music. Kyuss, QOTSA, Crooked Vultures, Desert Sessions everything 🏜️🤘🤘
@@jimreed2138 I got my fingers crossed for another vultures album haha
This and Something You Can't See are so fucking good
For some reason I’ve got a very The Wall vibe from this video and song and I absolutely love it.
Nice skating skills Mr. Homme
I absolutely love the video description.
That bow at the end was well deserved
My favourite among the album along with "Noses in Roses, Forever".
it glorious, I just want to melt away into this song
This video looked like a lot of fun to make. Never has skating in a suit looked so good!
Damn. Now i want a rollerskating Josh figurine...
So excellent , thank you
This is like a bizarro version of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.
I know, I love it! I'm still sticking to my original theory that the lyrics portray a nihilist's interpretation of Death who is fed up with his job and just starts killing whoever he wants
@@joshuastephenson1446 and, that would be you?
The nihilist, or death? Because I'm a super optimistic guy
@@joshuastephenson1446 I deduced that from your interpretation of lyrics.
I see it as dancing through the chaos around you and the acceptance that clears your mind afterward.
BLOWS ME AWAY EVERY TIME ❤️
Sounds like it's from ...Like Clockwork and it's amazing
Çağlar Keser it was confirmed in an interview somewhere that it was an outtake from Clockwork that he could never finish for that album. It’s very Kalopsia.
sounds right
I am confused but I love everything about this.

Oh shit I went to that same show! Gotta start staying after shows more.
I was there too!!! I’m so mad I didn’t stay after
Wasn't that the Murat show in August of 07?? If so I was at that show too. Regular John started off the show with Gasoline Angels as the opening band.
Jim Reed I wasn’t there for that one, just the show a couple years ago - sounds amazing though!
so beautiful
I needed all of this..
It shouldn't end... this song. Love the whole session...anachronistic as I am I have bought it physically.
If anyone doesn't know Carla from AUTOLUX go check them out RIGHT NOW. She's playing drums on this track and some others. Incredible drummer and AUTOLUX is bad ass and needs your attention.
The next decade or 2 are going to be great as long as Josh keeps contributing to music and videos. Man is a great musician and can skate too ha bonus.
Damn.. Josh is really makin skating look sexy 🤘🏽
Je l écoute en boucle, très très fort ce Josh.
Formidable
Antagonists don’t matter when your mind glissades on roller skates.
Don't know why but this video makes me smile
Dance of the Clairvoyants: Couldn't lift up the forget-me-nots

The girl is Arrow de Wilde lead singer of Starcrawler
I thought that might be her.
Easoer said than done. I've heard this concept. So True!
I need more josh in me
I mean in my life
you had it right the 1st time :}
The best band ever,could listen to this everyday
The ending vocals remind me of I Sat By The Ocean.
Same here!
ok I have seen this guy live once, never thought one day I’d see him on them skates...
Josh on wheels = 🔥🔥🔥
Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds into My God is the Sun. Nice
oh my Josh !!
:)
:D
The cinamotograpy in this one is stunning!
Is there the girl from Starcrawler?? This video really can't get any more awesome
Yep
This piece of art seems very nihilistic to me, i love it.
