His pride, her anger, his confession, her skepticism, his honesty, her disbelief, his reassurance, her distrust, his final plea, her truth, but still their love unresolved because that’s love.
I bet she is a nightmare as a girlfriend
Rick, It's my opinion that your comment covers everything! Therefore no other comments are needed! That's my opinion!
Love does not need to be unresolved. Everyone would do well to learn about Attachment Theory to understand relationship dynamics. It's a road-map to understanding each other, and ourselves in relation to others.
What I observe in this dynamic is that he seems to be someone with "secure attachment" trying hard to stay grounded and kind and keep the boat on an even keel, but her "anxious preoccupied" attachment style (fear of abandonment, lack of trust) her from meeting him in the middle. Her petulance is strong enough to rock any boat.
@@UrbanomicInteriors this comment is everything.
@@Harpplayer504 2nd this!
I love it when they harmonise! Watching Fiona's facial expressions in this, I think she would be a talented actor.
Pablo Horteg the beautiful thing about Fiona is that those expressions are real, not an act.
Eric Lagace !
indeed
No bullshit, Fiona Apple was almost in the Karate Kid 4 ; the one with the girl... but i guess she did music instead.
She reminds me a lot of Emily Blunt.
Fiona's voice just floors me. It's always a couple of seconds after she's finished singing that I realize I better start breathing again now.
that's exactly how it goes for me...i love her.
Gabriel Csaba 😘
Same same same! She is like a fire burning inside me that I can’t just wait to escape.
this is my first experience of her and i had the exact same feeling and realisation.
holy shit...
Gabriel Csaba 🙌💯
We definitely need a full album with this duo... in love!
100% agree!!!
What's astonishing to me about this track is the fact that it really doesn't have anything resembling a chorus, doesn't adhere to or even acknowledge traditional pop music structure, and yet it still manages to be utterly memorable. I can't stop hearing it in my head.
It's a pretty standard call & response song structure, though.
I find alot of fiona's music sounds like that...also jason mrazs EARLY stuff...try run by mraz, you'll love it
Andrew sings the chorus.
@3:00 sounds like pure Joanna Newsom if I ever heard it..
They use a refrain instead of a chorus, they even mention it in the refrain. Its where you end each verse with the same line. Good example is the wreck of the edmund fitzgerald.
She's always been good at delivering raw emotion in a charming way. And Andrew... there's that signature Bird-sound to everything he makes that I am fond of.
it would be unbecoming to say exactly how many times i've listened to this on repeat.
ditto
Yep. Stuck in my head for about a month. Not tired of it yet.
I`m fucking slowly catching you up bro, I`m decently obsessed with this song.
i think approximately 45,000 of the views are from me.
lol right
these two are the definition of emotionally charged and I love it
"The Sargasso Sea is the only sea on earth without a coastline, as it is surrounded by a gyre resulting from multiple currents converging. Bird is probably indicating that falling in love is like being in a vortex."
My thought is somewhat different... If he's a skeptic and doesn't believe that everything happens for a reason.. then how did he find a person to love out of all the great masses of people... and I think her point is that it doesn't matter .. he loves her.
I love the music and listen to it over and over but... one thing I've noticed in Fiona's videos is she puts the emotions of the song on her face. Others have mentioned it in these comments. You can see this character is both in love and wanting to be less harsh, more forgiving but something gets in the way... somethings upset her so much she can't forgive. And he seems obvlivious to it all. I need to study Bird's face more. It's obvious he's aiming for the same thing but I think Fiona is just so much better at it.
It's really amazing to watch these two in this video .. and then see the one "Fiona Apple Rocks" has entitled "Fiona Apple and Andrew Bird - Werewolf" and how they act toward each other. It's obvious they have respect for each other. It's interesting to see the dynamic.
I read a description of the Sargasso sea. They called it
"This strange and unique creation of nature"
I thought that was a beautiful metaphor for love or the person you are in love with.
A vortex also makes sense too.
That would be a pond, wouldn't it? Badly named.
@@caldar76 Well........
The Sargasso Sea is the deepest place in the world and all the eels go there to have their young, opposite the salmon who go to the highest water they can find, up mountain streams, something amazing about that😊
"The point your song here misses
Is that if you really loved me
You'd risk more than a few 50 cent
Words in your backhanded love song"Wow. That's a much needed lyrical punch in the face. Especially with Fiona's voice. Love it.
Lol i love her
Coming back here after years... I can't get it out of my head...
I am addicted to this. I fell in love with Fiona around seven years ago and no other artist emotionally and creatively energizes me the way she does. I discovered the greatness of Andrew around five years ago and those two together - superb.
I n T e R e Y e... hell yes. imagine that duo: Apple/White... or White/Apple. that would be amazing.
I love how at the end they sing it live, and not lip syncing to the recording
Sayed Sotelo OMG TRUE
I have had this song in my head for days and days. It's carrying over into dreamtime - I'm waking up singing it part-way through. Every inch of this song is heartfelt and cheeky and amazing. It's one of those songs that creeps up on you unexpectedly, until you are just compelled to listen to it on repeat. Two incredible artists.
Yup.
lindiemoon lol yep...I woke up singing it for some reason
This one gets better with the repeat listening.
I've always adored this song. Fiona apple first c.d was one of my first ever bought c.d's when I was about ten. Saved up for it, and instead of kids toys and other things I said I wanted to support her and buy her c.d. Found Andrew Bird much,much later, but I'm truly thankful for you both creating this. It means so much, and I always wondered what it would have sounded like if she worked on a song with a male artist and this is better than my imagination. The micro expressions and control you both have while performing is beyond amazing. ❤❤❤
I really care for Fiona and seeing her just makes me happy... Such a beautiful soul.
So glad to see she's got a bit more body fat again :)
Berhoh Comments like that just makes me tired.
Why? Don't deny that she was in trouble. You can't just ignore the fact that she wasn't healthy for a while just because she's a "godess".
Thanks mom
Berhoh agreeeeee
I am not a musician, nor am I a songwriter. If I were, this is what I would aspire to.
The harmony of their voices sends chills
What a gift. I'm such a huge Fiona fan, and Bird's song is just beautiful. I can't get over the depth of emotion that comes out of these two, I feel compelled to watch it over and over...
This song is amazing and Fiona's acting is great. I get chills eat time they begin to sing together. Magical.
I took me some time to really appreciate this song. I adore the harmonie "make me a believeeeeeer" ... Right before the end. What a gorgeous delivery from both of them.
"The point your song here misses is that if you really loved me, you'd risk more than a few 50 cent words in your backhanded love song".
css rbr I know that is right om!!
For those of you who want to see more of Andrew and Fiona jamming together, look up for "Andrew Bird live from the great room with Fiona", that was terrific.
thank you!
This song is amazing. Damn , Fiona Apple is epic on this. Always glad to see new stuff from her.
Beautiful!! I want to see Andrew Bird before I die. He is simply incredible.
Andrew bird is an incredible musician. His npr concert shows you just how versatile he truly is
I’d take a full duet album with these two
I think this song mainly talks about being skeptic about how a sane, reasonable person could ever love someone that is frail and submerged by self-doubt. How, amongst all the people in the world, someone could choose a singular individual, and about how, at every single chance we have, we are able to argue against this possibility instead of appreciating this opportunity.
GAWWWDDDD....I can't....I keep watching this over and over again because it's well...perfect. The lyrics, their expressions....gah! Addicted.
this video has just reaffirmed my undying love for both Andrew Bird and Fiona Apple. sigh....
Such a good song, such a good pairing for a duet. Brilliant songwriting as usual from Andrew Bird.
Came to Bird through Fiona. Went to see him based solely on the power of this video. Watched many of his videos online to get somewhat up to speed and was pretty much blown away by his live performance. Incredible band backing him up. Great chemistry in this video, due largely in part to the brilliance of director Philip Andelman, I would love to see them collaborate again. Bird is brilliant, and Fiona, well, she's in a class all her own.
Anything from this talented duo
i love how much this song and video seem like a conversation
This is an amazing song. The vocals are just fucking amazing and unexpected. The way she says left handed kisses. The writing. Understated, poignant. I just found this song and I've listened to it 15 times today 😂.
I love this song. The emotion in Fiona’s voice on “if you really loved me” at the end makes me want to cry even when I’m having a great day.
ugh her FACE is PERFECT
this is a gorgeous song and one of my favorites off the album
Pulaski is so good.
Both are amazing artists...i hope i get to play music with them soon...i love this song...." Oh shit baby"
i miss fiona
and this is really awesome
such a dream collaboration!
That knife blade ending...cuts deep. I cant stop watching this. I'll need a blood transfusion to continue.
don't get aids
this video has just reaffirmed my undying love for both Andrew Bird and Fiona Apple. sigh....
i miss fiona
and this is really awesome
it would be unbecoming to say exactly how many times i've listened to this on repeat.
Brilliance
I haven`t heard a song nor seen a video of this quality for some time.....5 stars to all involved.
You find a song like this when you need it most. I found it September 2019 ❤
Their deep singing styles really complement each other. Those harmonies gives me chills!
What a beautiful song, they work so amazingly well together. I love when Fiona gets looks so emotional when singing, and smashing that bottle. Her hands, I'm sure, are very strong from slamming the keys on the piano like she does sometimes, I love it.
I want to tout my praises, but I am uncharacteristically stunned into silence. I think I'll listen again. And again.
Just by your comment alone, I would read what you put to paper... 🤭🤟
saw andrew bird with a drummer opening for nicklecreek back in 2005, what a performance. if he comes to your area, see him, enough said. goes for fiona as well. support these incredibly talented, inventive artists as much as you can. we need more of this.
Goosebumps.......these two geniuses need to do more together 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

Wow... And yes!!!...
Musical majesty.
Now its time!
Ya know I'm wondering WHY HIS MUSIC IS SO FREAKING ADDICTING!!!!!!!!
Andrew is so dope, so dope
me alegra ver a Fiona Apple de nuevo! ojalá esté de vuelta en la escena pronto
A rare occurrence when a brilliant song is matched by a brilliant video. God bless em
Can't wait to see him live again!
+Aynge Mackay Me too!
Literally two of my top-tier favorite artists ever. How did I miss this?!
The curtain behind Andrew changes...I've seen this so much but I never noticed
I remember seeing them on Ellen when this was released...love the song...violin's magnificent❤️ as well as Andrew and Fiona😊
Thanks to Andrew Bird and this awesome video I just discovered Fiona Apple, somehow she passed me by in the 90's. The Idler Wheel is fantastic, been playing it on repeat. Now off to check out the rest of her discography.
How can you not fall in love with her here
some people spend their whole lives searching for their "tribes," so I'm lucky to find mine in the youtube comment section of this video LOL
Zak Payne ❤️
Puro amor
And what a fine tribe it is!
#tribe
your karrass!!
this is the greatest love song I've ever heard
That little bit at 2:50 is so raw. Ah I adore this!
They both amazing.
Fionna Apple rocks ♥️ just love her
All the faces(expressions) in that beautiful face.She would be a great actress!👌
Thank you. I was starting to miss real music. This is what real and great music sounds like. No f@&king autotune,and no repetitive and meaningless lyrics.
Pure musical harmony
Brilliant!
Its been almost two years since this Phililip Andelman video dropped and I still get shivers every time I watch it. Andrew and Fiona are flawless, and the chemistry he brought out between the two is inspiring.
Remarkable. The harmonies at the end ... !
Criminally underrated
love this
This is so mind boggling good I don't know what to do with myself...And Fiona is so beautiful. I love seeing her.
This song is what being in a long relationship feels like
This is heavenly
Yes
2 of my most loved singers, Writers, artist!
I love them both so much. So moving and passionate
sooooo perfect. the lyrics are astounding
only checked this out cause of Fiona and I'm glad I did, love this song even though it's not my type of genre I love this song. And how Fiona kept looking like she was gunna say something but let him finish or decided not to share that thought
want more from these two!
just heard it today. fell in love with them all over again.
Wow .. the emotion conveyed in this piece is so true to life. Great performance.
This video may be my new favorite thing. Their voices are fantastic together, achieving just the right tension.
Absolutely in love with this!
I've been here like hundred times and still can't leave without Fiona's angry face in the end. Love them both!
love this music video. it's simple and yet not like lil touches with the instruments and the way they look at each other
Years later I still come back and always watch more than once.
oh my god i've been blessed
been loving fiona since age 15! can never get enough! Goosebumps dont even explain what this song does to me!
Once I read an interview of Fiona where she said that she doesn't care about other people's music. Lately, you only see her playing other people's music. One can change I believe.
I don't remember her ever expressing that. I recall her saying she felt sometimes that she wanted to listen to music but it would be too emotionally difficult because she is too influenced by it.
+Jane Does Even more, I remember the interviewer ask her wich bands/musicians she liked most and she replied that: "I don't care about other people's music" so she didn't know wich bands/musicians she might like because she didn't listen to any... escept old jazzy music I believe.
Flyhigh I know she's mentioned Jeff Buckley before as artist she listens to.
only when writing a new album or material, as she wants to remain as authentic as possible.. she has done many covers throughout her career. From bill withers buddy holly cy coleman duke ellington beetles jimmy hendrix. collaborations with nikel creek, elvis costello, johnny cash. showing your ignorance here buddy.
@@hifive7366 you are full of it mate. read my comment. she cites her main musical influences as miriam mcccabe, kate bush and ella fitzgerald.
It's like Meryl Streep...anything that Fiona has to do with is automatically worthwhile, and probably great...and this is no exception
I just discovered this artist and love the sound. This kind of music is right up my alley.
Wonderful
I love Fiona’s unique music style and she literally can adapt to any style. If this was what her new album sound was like I’d love it just as much
Love Andrew Bird and how awesome it is to see him with the lovely and lovely voiced Fiona Apple...always a Welcome!!
Oh my heart. I'm ready for round two.
Me too
ahhh so much passion and greatness and ugh
They would be couple goals. Ugh my heart
Mmm yes
