Scott doesn't get nearly enough credit for his song-writing ability. It seems he's often overshadowed by Jeff's (also wonderful) songs. Same goes with "My Honor Counts for Something." Great lyrics in both...
Coming back to this, I should say yes, I was truly praising this song and not trying to do anything other than that. My dad would play this on his stereo when I was a kid. He had lots of songs that he listened to, but this was one of the ones that I always wanted him to replay when it came on. It really was one of my favorite songs ever growing up. So no, I’m not making up a stupid ‘I like good art’ comment for likes. It’s truly how I feel. I’m not sorry if it made you want to accuse me of otherwise
LYRICS/ She comes to me Whenever I am locked inside my room Buried in the tune that I call love She sings to me, the words I cannot hear But then, the melody's so clear it makes me cry Her love is so beautiful Her love is so real, it smells like glue She's leaving me to find a place she never will call home I stand shaking like a stone And smile inside She's calling me to come to her and curl inside her womb I hear lies, and acid too But I won't die, the pain is so beautiful The urge is so real/ her love is so real it smells like glue (ready) And I will scream, she hears me I will tell myself she loves me And all the lies and fears Will stick to me like glue (one more time) And I will scream, she hears me I will tell myself she loves me And all the lies and fears Will stick to me like glue...
I don't know how, maybe I listened to this too much on repeat, but I broke youtube's recomendation algorithm, and this video is the autoplay "up next" of literally 100% of videos I watch. 10 Seconds after any video I watch I hear that "DING" and I have to listen to the whole thing because IT'S SO GOOD THANK YOU TH-cam!!!
I want to record an EP with song that sound like they could land on an Elephant 6 project. Im so excited to get started. I have a couple pretty good ones already.
Still think it'd be great if Neutral Milk Hotel did an album similar to The Beatles' White Album, where they each wrote songs independently of one another, but collaborated on arrangements and such.
So happy to know this version lives on. Was on an ancient mix tape I'll never own again.
Stephanie Neal its in my friends car
Nice!
Behold! How lucky we are. You got a phone anything ever recorded prob at your fingertips! Wonderful! Put on some mother fucking Leadbelly!!
Me too! But, I still got the mix tape... just no tape deck 🤷♀️
what you think it died just bc you lost the tape?
This song is so beautiful and real, it sticks to me like glue
their voices are so unique together it sounds great.
Scott performed this when he opened for Jeff at the show I went to in April 2012, it was beautiful.
I've listened to this hundreds of times and I still can't handle it.
1000’s now for me
this video is not easy on the eyes.
yeah what was the uploader thinking lol
Happy to have it for the song, though.
Epilepsy
I could be wrong, but I think that maybe have been on purpose? 😂 lol it's an artistic choice, I'll give it that.
3 years of watching this video and i never noticed the orangutan that shows up on screen for like one second near the middle
gabecrow oh my hod
@@seagull653 uh oh
stinky
I've been staring, looking for it
I laughed when the orangutan stared back for a second
1:56
Lmao holy shit

I wish he wrote more, Robert and Julian write a lot of amazing things but I feel like Scott has a lot more to write!!!!
There's only a handful of songs that can project so much emotion into such small verses
Perfectt example of a failed Attempt at an angsty "i like good art" comment
nah dude i think he actually just wants to make a statement about how good the song is.

scott and jeffs voices are both amazing
The world needs more music from Jeff
LYRICS/ She comes to me
Whenever I am locked inside my room
Buried in the tune that I call love
She sings to me, the words I cannot hear
But then, the melody's so clear it makes me cry
Her love is so beautiful
Her love is so real, it smells like glue
She's leaving me to find a place she never will call home
I stand shaking like a stone
And smile inside
She's calling me to come to her and curl inside her womb
I hear lies, and acid too
But I won't die, the pain is so beautiful
The urge is so real/ her love is so real it smells like glue
(ready)
And I will scream, she hears me
I will tell myself she loves me
And all the lies and fears
Will stick to me like glue
(one more time)
And I will scream, she hears me
I will tell myself she loves me
And all the lies and fears
Will stick to me like glue...
I still think it's "buried in this tomb that I call love".
love this song so much. i've listened to it 20 times today.
The emotion in this song hits me harder with every listen.
You're trying to give me another seizure with this vid but I love this song
Hey I'm just here to say thank you for uploading this version, which I can't find anywhere else, but which lives rent-free inside my head.
This is so beautiful it's such a warm song

@thefrenzee
It's from the original Gerbils 7".
sounds like Naomi ("until she shines")
Sounds like Foot Ox is singing in there. Heh. Amazing things happen when E6 intercollaborates.
I just had a seizure.
this song is fucking awesome!!! i listen it 1000 nytgehshsjhsh
Oh god yes.
It's the random Orangotang for me. :)
this is pretty much just the original artist playing his song while jeff is singing along
moki thank god for it, if it weren’t for this version I never would have been aware of the gerbils
No because Julian is playing his singing saw and Jeff is playing guitar too
@@neros12346 I think Jeremy Barnes is playing the pots
amazing
That would be cool, wouldn't it? I've never thought about that.
Amazing.
@EmptyHero
Amazing.
1:57 monkey jumpscare
God bless
I saw that fucking monkey ahahahahahahahaahah
The orangutan in the middle is sick
The video fits the song so well. So awesome!
@Lalevine1 When does he start singing? I only hear Jeff and Julian.
john smith I think that's Scott singing at the start , not Julian
john smith I realise this comment is 5 years late
What album is featured here on the video?
gerbils 'Glue' 7"
It also appears on their album "Are You Sleepy"
what deaf person thumbs down this song?!
Kanye West
What blind person thumbs up the shit video
Probably because the visuals ngl
you're right, its a head ache
ok :(
Cool song annoying video
it's not a fucking video
Justin Bieber with the one dislike
Probably disliked the seizure-inducing video, not the gorgeous song
