Lyrics:
And you know, you know, you know it all went wrong
And you know, you know, you know it was all wrong
#ModestMouse #KingRat #OfficialHDVideo #Remastered - เพลง
The animated video which was "fully conceived down to the last detail but unfinished" when Ledger died in January 2008, it was completed by members of Los Angeles art collective/production company The Masses, namely Daniel Auber (co-director and illustrator), Norris Houk (lead animator), Jade Taglioli (animator) and Sara Cline (producer). Ledger who had also been part of The Masses, received a director's credit.
wow this video is a real eye opener. really shows you how many whales terrorize innocent humans each year.
Doug Dimmadome, Owner of the Dimmsdale Dimmadome, Father of Dale Dimmadome Heir to Dimmadome Fortune Your username is amazing.
That avatar though, is that a megaten game?
Doug Dimmadome, Owner of the Dimmsdale Dimmadome, Father of Dale Dimmadome Heir to Dimmadome Fortune I would say the same thing
I'm a bit late since I didn't get the notif, but yea, my old avatar was from a megaten game, acapella
Doug Dimmadome, Owner of the Dimmsdale Dimmadome, Father of Dale Dimmadome Heir to Dimmadome Fortune wow your name
Saw them perform this gem in person...my life is complete
This is the greatest song I've ever heard. Ive been listening to it for so long but it never gets dull.
If he just said "WELL" the whole time, I'd be fine with that.
"WHALE! WHALE! WHALE!"
SAMEEEEE
ahh bee ahbla gaa ga ga Well well whale WHALE dee gaa
thats what i heard
Frosty @3
Wail well whale. Me too tbh
anyone else discover modest mouse as a child, and still listen as an adult?
I'm 16, not quite an adult yet but if it counts I discovered them when I was around 8 haha
started listening to mm when I was about 10 or 11, 17 now.
Oh yes
I discovered them when I was 11 and I'm 14 now but I know I will definitely be listening when I'm adult. it's rare when music can impact me no matter my age, especially in different ways each time.
I was 8
20 Years I have loved Modest Mouse. Thank you for excellence. 👌👏🏼👌
This shows a clear message, one that we need to stop denying. It sickens me to think that we can be so ignorant about something so relevant and immoral.
Please, stop the senseless killing of Humans.
i cant tell if i should be laughing or recognizing it was a really stupid joke
Wouldn't you have to do both?
Ronan RiemanJohns You. I like you.
Thank you!
Ronan RiemanJohns No problem you got a good laugh out of me!
I love this. When you look at it as human being slughtered you finally realize just how horrid the whole thing is... Amazing and eyeopening. I loe this song I keep listening to this song, I can't help it.
Modest mouse shows me how there is beauty in sadness, thank you MM forever listening!
whales know how to party
I can get down with this.
Don't forget, you are always invited.
"Bring out the Human skin!"
Didn't know Heath Ledger directed this until seeing his episode on "Too Young to Die". Always loved this song though but this video is incredible.
I discovered them from a great friend when I was 17, I don't speak to him anymore but I'm 28 now and have listened to them for 11 years. They generate the lovely memories of our time together ❤🤼♂️
Just found this band... So beautiful. I love the violin so much, it's amazing
cello
Great video by Heath Ledger and great song too
Getting high to modest mouse in highschool was something else
i love how humans only realize what they are doing to other beings when the roles are visually switched. really cool video :)
Favorite song to do it karaoke hands down! Although people usually leave looking very confused before I'm done
This song was ok to me the first time i listened to it.. It's now one of my favourite songs ever. The lyrics are so deep, and the video is so cool
IT'S GREAT! HIS VOICE!... oh god... i love it
Rest in peace Heath Ledger.
I was not prepared for that name in the end credits. Lifelong MM fan and I found out this week. Incredible
Can’t say we don’t deserve this
It's kill or be killed, look what they are doing to us in a parallel universe
this is a different universe from our’s. in this world, humans are whales, and whales are humans. so these people didn’t deserve it
Smell that air, can’t you just drink it like booze?
Come on VEVO know your shit. This was directed by Heath Ledger for Christ's sake. You know the awesome joker who died what seems not that long ago (RIP :( Your fans miss you).
Well King rat has me on his list again
I can never be on the fence again...
Wow, that was impressive. Heath?! What a brilliant dude. I had no idea of this talent. Rest in Paradise. ♡
And here i thought they were gonna be fishing for those flying fish at the beginning. I sure was wrong...
We took all that we could carry, but we tried to carry em all.. As Gandhi so eloquently put it, "There's enough for every mans need, but not enough for every mans greed".
WHAT DO YOU
HAVE TO SAY
FOR YOURSELF
niemand
“I’ve got it all (most)”
Seafood is tasty? Especially with French fries. And lotsa ketchup.
I saw this on TV, late at night, many years ago. Needless to say it kinda disturbed my for a long time. It wast until a few years ago that I saw the band perform live.
Friend: what kind of music you listen to
Me:
this video is unsettling. i love it
I have always loved this song and I happened to catch the end of the video.(because sometimes I listen to stuff while doin other things.) You know like most everyone does) but damn, I didn't know that Heath Ledger helped w the music video.
He's was an amazing, actor, and creative soul.one of my favorites. It makes sense he would have something amazing to do and happen w Modest mouse.
Sun: dadaddadadadadda
Captain whale : dadaddadaddad
12 years ......wooooow.
I saw this on a documentary about someone and I wanted to see what it was really about
I can say that I am slightly scarred
What documentary was it about? I'm curious.
Directed by heath ledger still cant believe that
RIP
I love how everybody is just criticising the video and not giving a shit about the song's lyrics.
*Heath Ledger again at his finest for creating the idea for this video*
this song is perfect for dishonored
HEATH LEDGER IS A FUCKING GENIUS!!!!!!!!
Videos like this would be so much cooler to have playing in a restaurant to the music instead of sports.
I’m way too many years late, but I’m here now!
Sounds like Charlie work
charlie kelly, king of the rats.
I forgot the song title, and that's how I remembered. lol
Before I knew what Isaac looked like, I imagined he would look something like Charlie lol
Hahaha ha awesome
Hahaha! That's awesome. 100 points
How are you Isaac?
Isaac: WELL!
I can’t stop listening to this song
I remember seeing this when I was 17 and feeling sick for a week. Still love this song though.
Just saw this song live in Birmingham, it was pure gold.
Still loving this in 2020
My bad if this was already pointed out, but try watching this video while listening to The Whale Song. Kinda eerie how well it lines up with this video.
Such a disturbing video
+Homie Yeah Whaling can be disturbing too, which is what the point of this video is about lol, it's whaling, turned on humans.
Elizabeth Holt I have no doubt it trully is.
+Homie Yeah life is fucking disturbing
+Homie Yeah happens every day to millions of animals. Trillions every single year by human hands.
xsydkate wait...so this is done by a million of human hands to feed dogs then? (Seals at the end were dogs to the whales) I don't think its disturbing, the people are willingly helping the seals/dogs by giving them food. I think its pretty nice actually. :)
4:20 wen u stoned af
I spent ages finding this, I may nice relax and listen to this masterpiece
Randomly remembered this song, I love its message
yep thats human behavior for you.. gosh were disgusting.
Stephanie Smith Amiro what a subjective sense of morality you have but one person's opinion gets us no where to understand or the act of killing whales is wrong but I'm guessing you have a sense of I think they feel pain so I should sympathize but why would their emotions matter
This looks like it could be a future haunted house.
Those whales are so stupid, the skin's the best part!!!
This music video makes me seafood differently.
Well, well, well, well, well... what have we here? A tasty tune indeed!
I saw this song when i was 10 years old on MTV and i loved it and i found it now by searching "sardine hunting humans music video"
Omg same
You have not lived until you've screamed "WELLLLLL" along with Isaac at a live show.
Ill be seeing you soon cannot wait
so basically in our universe the sun is a whale right ?
Not sure, I have never looked to the sun for more than a few seconds, because it's so bright I can't see if it has a face or not.
Although, I don't think the universe of the video is the OPPOSITE of ours, I mean, they can turn the sun into a basket ball, doesn't mean the sun in our universe is a foot ball.
The fact that heath ledger directed this.... shows that this band is something that our world is in need of. So many people misconstrue what momo stands for
Whatever than. Rent. Money spent. Doing stupid shit without thinking about it first. That's what I think the song is about. Doing something and ending up with nothing. That's all I meant.
I'm under the impression that the song is about the cycle of crime and how hard it is to get out of it once you identify yourself as a criminal . Shares the same meaning that you came up with though.
Byron de Jong Or just simply it's about whaling?
Actually both of them are right. The protagonist, tries and tries but is caught in this wheel of neverending thievery to actually continue his living and makes stupid decisions that ruin him completely but he stilll is determined to pay his bills, sooner or later he just gives up. He is fully aware that he is in denial but doesn't care. Modest mouse sends strong messages
soicanhaveanyname Not everything needs a secret message.
MimicAraiun Its not a "secret message", this is how most Modest Mouse songs are. You need to really listen to the song and ignore the video. Read the lyrics and really listen to it. The message was clear.
This one of my favorite things
AL FIN LO ENCUENTROOOOOOOOOO
WTF did I just watch
According to the description "Music video by Modest Mouse performing King Rat."
***** Well it was directed by Heath Ledger, so that explains a lot.
Belated congratz for reaching 100k subscribers!
All the comments on this video are 10/10
I have never hated a Modest Mouse song a single time in my entire life. Wtf.
Charley Kelly theme song
Bahahahaha
I fucken love its always sunny so excited for January
You sir, deserve a medal
A dramatically haunting yet interesting video first time I saw it 😳🧐
oh wow. such an "innocent," but still so realistic, video.
I like this art, it’s basic but still appealing to look at.
the fuck did you lace my drink with?
I want a fully animated version ASAP
This is the music video that encapsulates the movie Tusk.
This song kicks ass are you going to play it in Cincinnati (and if soo are you gonna have BMP open for you
)
This is just fully unhinged music,
🖤🖤🖤
oh snap
That was such a great song
Dont worry, this is just the exact opposite of what we do to fish. Now the fish do it to us
This scared me as a kid now i find it so true.
¡Woww!, ahora mismo estoy escuchando esta canción en mi habitación, con la luz del computador y mis audífonos, realmente se siente genial, quisiera inyectar esta canción en mis venas.
sugar boats también esta muy interesante de experimentar
Si sabes quien es el director?
Heath Ledger: I have this half-finished animation about how whaling is bad. Do you have any songs that would fit?
Isaac Brock: We got this one about a criminal constantly returning to his life of crime. It mentions fish and water metaphorically a couple of times.
Heath Ledger: Perfect.
Quartz fr tho 😂
Also Heath Ledger: dead
You can't deny how well it worked though.
@@glaucovillasboas8212 um that's not funny
@@syntheseyez3577 The joke is bad but if you are refering to him being dead isnt funny then you don't get humor.
Apparently the band members met Heath Ledger through mutual friends in his hometown of Perth when they were touring Australia .. the story as told by Brock (probably, I can't remember where I read the interview) goes that they got to talking on a boat cruise about this song and concept which Heath then volunteered to make the video for, then many months later when they presumed the famous young movie star had completely forgotten about or ignored the project they received the full synopsis from him in the mail out of the blue. This is one reason why they made it exactly as he had envisioned it in his honour after his tragic and untimely death. Heath was a great, great actor (everyone knows that) but he was also a great creative artist and budding director with the world at his feet. He made his own video for Black Eyed Dog by Nick Drake but that has never been released publicly, and I've been looking for about 10 years now, and wanted to bring a biopic to the screen starring himself as Nick of course. Apart from everything he had going on including a new wife and young child, he was a man of his word as proven by this tale. We'll never know what else he might have achieved but the world is definitely the poorer without him :/ Rest in peace Heath, you made your mark.
Interesting..
Thanks for sharing this, I learned a lot. Blessings ♥️
Why so serious?
@@thelegendkillersshittyduff1335 im sorry your life sucks and thst youve made yourself an unlovable human but some people genuinely love each other and want to make something beautiful
@@vasaus I'm actually getting better thanks hope your day is going well
Song lyrics can have more than one meaning, and the people who insist this video is about humanity's woes and not about whale slaughter, are incorrect... I mean, the video's message is perfectly clear.
Google: “King Rat” Modest Mouse Video Directed by Heath Ledger Supports Sea Shepherd
In this video, Ledger was opposing the illegal commercial whale hunts by the Japanese and others. To raise awareness of the problems, the video depicts whales poaching humans to make pet food. Proceeds from iTunes purchases of the song were donated to the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, with full approval of the band. Respect to Modest Mouse.
cool I didn't know that. now I miss heath ledger.
Sky Chase Yep, thanks...people who love & respect life are worthy of being called human beings. Imagine what vile monsters we'd consider beings who did to us what we do to animals.
Don't forget the attention to the fish meal problem.
Videos and lyrics can have different meanings dude.
I'm in love with this song for the pure sinisterness in Isaac's singing - as in he doesn't even need lyrics to sound like a psycho, his voice does it all! And I desperately wish there are more singers like him.
I've been trying for years. I still can't get my voice to pull this song off. It's addictive
Same@@ravenblackwing7888
As disturbing as that was, it had a striking and thought-provoking message.
It's interesting to see this being Directed by Heath Ledger, it makes me want to look more into his directorial information -if any exists.
His final performance in the movie: The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, is a rather bizarre foreshadowing of sorts- considering how dark his creative mind had been leading up to his unfortunate passing.
Something I love about modest mouse is that they put so much care into the instrumental portion of their songs. So much rock is built off of a frankly boring base of guitar and drums. It gets to the point that many songs are indistinguishable if you take away the voice.
Totally agreed. The majority of rock bands seem to think that rock is about powering through songs, but very few bands exhibit the same level of control over the sound and pace of a song as these guys
Built "on"
@@GamblerRuinedmodest mouse was an uprising band in the late 80s early 90s in the Seattle area around the same time Kurt cobain died he was from the same scene they were
its sad you have to compliment musicians for actually being musicians today
why did I just find out that Heath Ledger directed this
Because you just happened to come across that information..?
That's awesome!
i saw this like 5 years ago and just realised this also
4hotpink10 IKR
Yep, that explains it now.
Is this the new episode of spongebob?
+Olivia Perez this made my day
oh my god
+Olivia Perez Yes.
collect your prize good sir
*thunderous applause*
All of modest mouses old stuff is permanintly imprinted in my brain my mother playd nothing but modest mouse when i was a kid and im completly fine with it
you got a really cool mom
Here Here!
would not consider this old modest mouse :/ guess im just a sad sappy sucker in this lonesome crowded west
How old are you? I guess you could be in high school and born in the late 90s or early 2000s for your mom to have been playing you Modest Mouse. And while they're one of my top 3 favorite bands, they have some pretty depressing music and lyrics, so hope you're alright haha.
Yea I'm turning 15 in December the third so high school and as for me mom she's just cool she was on like 3 different bands before i was born doing drugs and shot calling but we'd always be playing this type of music and such
anyways thats my story
I know what this video means and everything, but one huge question is just on my mind and wont leave me alone.
Does the fact that the sun has the face of a human, mean that in our world, if our sun had a face, it'd be the face of a WHALE?
These a re the real questions people. I need the answer.
ive got 2 wordstelletubbies or is that one i dunno (baby sun)
Nato Genocide Shoo, that wasn't at all what this comment thread is about, go find someone else who is complaining and wallow in your bitchy-ness and uselessness with others of your kind.
Yes
human face, why you ask? well certainly because jesus was the morning star, the sun rises in the morning. modest mouse is follow the path jesus went and am trying to tell people to stop being blind and repeated the world. soon enough there will be a big flood and everybody who has forgot the meaning of life wlll be left in the water and remain on earth.. satan is the light bearer which is why earth (hell) bears the sunlight and is filled with evil....
andrew cooper the morning star isn't Jesus bro it's Lucifer...
ladies and gentlemen, there is an objective limit number of times you are allowed to say "well" in a song - if you exceed that in the intro, well ...
Oh whale.
Kinda like Ozzy and R Zombie with "Yeah"
Are you sure he's not saying whale? ;)
I sea what you did here :v
Megumi the Blackcat Nice profile pic
I just realized what the title means. King Rat is in reference to rat kings, where multiple rats get their tails stuck together and are bound to one another.
In most cases the rat king dies because none of the rats work together to move or untangle themselves. They all run in a different direction and never get anywhere.
Much like our society right now.
Yeah man we should just let you decide what we all do. Or were you gonna cooperate with the strongest so that youre doing your part for us to all go in the same direction? Don't preach on problems that don't have answers to.
@zack49 i mean it's better than sitting around doing nothing 😂
That is exactly how my mind and sees it too. I love this song and video. I show it to people when they ask about my music taste. Never goes well. They are usually very confused about what they heard and basically hate it. Poor mofos can't appreciate real art in music. That's how I realize there is no future in me and that person agreeing on much of anything. Oh well it weeds them all out so I can still be that bureaucratic Criminal in a world that is just broken in so many ways. Just like me.
@@RaguDumas It's totally valid to dislike a song, that doesn't mean someone doesn't appreciate/understand its artistic merit or that you two won't agree on anything- art is extremely subjective and that's part of the beauty of it. That being said, it's very fair to be irked when someone dismisses your music after asking what you like to listen to.
i thought king rat was just the polar opposite of modest mouse
I feel like I'm 10 years too late to the Modest Mouse party, damn these guys are good.
Never late. I love this band
Better late than never. This is a band that everybody should have the chance to experience in their lives. Even if it isn't everybody's taste, they should at least have the opportunity. They can be pretty life changing.
Never late. But please Check out modest mouse's early stuff. Seriously best rock band of the 90's
I’m 13 years too late i guess.
then im 14~15 years late
"We laughed about paying rent, cause the county jails they're free"
Can relate so hard
