Nick Offerman makes this butter
butter my better
This comment has been here 4 years and it only has 78 likes, I'm bamboozled
*bitter*
To be fair, Ron Swanson would probably make his own butter

LIVE IN BERLIN - "Thank you, Stuttgart!"
thank you
There's nothing butter than seeing Ron Swanson in a Decemberists music video.
His name is Jerk Offmyman
PoPoyopon The failed joke ^. Good luck next time, buddy.

ajkelly451 Except, like, maybe the Decemberists on Parks and Rec... :P
You mean Duke Silver right
Hilarious and bizarre and yet somehow heartfelt...just as the Decemberists always are
“what’s your favorite decemberists song?” “make you butter”
Anyone else appreciate it when bands show the necks of their guitars when they make videos? Makes it easier to figure out how to play the song.
Ron Swanson attempting a German accent. Life complete.
YoungJin Kim at first I thought it was Russian, until it said Berlin.
Jeremy Lewis i thought French
"there comes a time in a mans life where... where the music makes sense" is probably the best quote I have ever actually been able to identify with, perfect way to end the video!
I love they got everytihng period correct to the 70s in Germany. The Sennheiser mics are perfect. .... and those fiberglass horn style toms like Alan White played in Yes.
I’ve reached the time on my life when I know what I want, and the music makes sense
Not sure why there's so much hate over the video. It's quirky and broody. Like the Decemberists. Personally, I love it!
Colin Meloy is a true genius. Just finished reading his Wildwood series and I'm truely amazed by his talent as an author as well.

My son would go to a summer program in Portland Oregon based on that book.
"There comes a time in a man's life when the music makes sense"
TT_______TT
Nick Offerman's cutting, "so you say," might be the funniest line ever delivered
The very first song I ever heard by them…and one of their best too.
I cannot tell you how many times I have cried to this song..
Me too. Generally while belting it out, practically screaming along to it at very high volume on the motorway (where the loudness offends no-one at all!) on my own.
I was 19 in 1977. I can attest that this video is a perfect recreation of that era.
Accurate - everything had harvest gold undertones.
I was 64 in 1977 iam now 110 years old.
keep on keeping on, old man@@sebastianruhland5198
idk why this song has such a sadness to it
cant get enough of it
Maybe over analyzing, but I think "when the music makes sense" was a much better line.
Now can we just get Nick Offerman to play saxophone on a Decemberists album?
Christiana Sherrill You mean Duke Silver?
One of the butter songs ever done!
People from the band could not find better name for the album than What a Terrible World, What a Beautiful World. It shows conflicts of beautiful and terrible world and this is what the best describes the inner world of their songs. With elegant melodies that hey served for people like us can be this planet still quite a pleasant place to live, sometimes.
Quite simply one of the greatest music videos I've ever seen.
Lovely to see Jenny looking well. Yay!
Excellent! That song couldn't be butter.
Curly guitar leads , now that's what i call attention to detail , love love love this song
This song has the feeling of mid 90's Counting Crows, not complaining.
This song could use a saxophone solo from Duke Silver
For sure
lmao
You beat me to it.
Arturo Millán
All of my yes!
The December
ists are one of my favorite groups!
lyrics:
I want you, thin fingers
I wanted you, thin fingernails
And when you bend backwards
I wanted you, I needed you
Oh-oh, to make me butter
I'll love you in springtime
I lost you when summer came
And when you pulled backwards
I wanted you, I needed to
Oh-oh, to make me butter
Oh-oh, to make me butter
But we're not so starry-eyed anymore
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
And won't it all just come around to make you
Let it all unbreak you to the day you met her
But it'd make you butter
It'd make you butter
I sung you, your twinges
I suffered you, your tattletales
And when you broke sideways
I wanted you, I needed you
Oh-oh, to make me butter
Oh-oh, to make me butter
But we're not so starry-eyed anymore
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
And won't it all just come around and make you
Let it all unbreak you to the day that you met her
And it'd make you better
Did it make you butter?
Make you butter
And all I wanted was a sliver to call mine
And all I wanted was a shimmer in your shine
To make me bright
'Cause we're not so starry-eyed anymore
Like the perfect paramour you were in your letters
Won't it all just come around and make you
Let it all unbreak you to the days you met her
But it'd make you butter
It'd make you butter
I love when bands make their music videos comedic!
Nick's dancing makes this so much butter, I mean better.
Love it! Also, Nick Offerman makes everything better.
He also makes everything butter
You say better, not butter
making you butter
10/10
Love it. Always good to see Nick Offerman on German television in the 1980s.
Great song - the video, if one watches without puristically listening to the music, is brilliantly done. Bill Fishman / whoever came up with the storyboard has clearly put intricate thought into this. Each piece has meaning and it's well produced. Anyone who knows anything about production can see how cleverly it's been done. There will be those who disagree, but from this viewer, much appreciated.
I sooooo badly want to see them in concert!!! But none of them are close enough for me to go without having to take time off of teaching. >.< The only band I want to see in concert this year.
They are WORTH it if you can find a way.I have seen them three times and have tickets to see them in Portland in March. I will not miss them if I can help it :-0
this is so great. such a great video for one of their very best tracks. watching again 13 January 2023
Never noticed Chris Funk getting his beard/mustache caught in the microphone at 3:05 before today. Perfect!
There should be a real show like the Old Blue Rock Palace Show. Love the interview style.
The video is great, yes, but let's talk about the SONG. One of the of the best choruses of any indie song in the past decade. It scrapes the skies.
Yeah but maybe a little more cowbell
First time listening this band it it hits me right square in the feels... this is incredible...
A friend recommended that I try some Decemberist music.
I'm glad he did. Excellent, excellent music.
Such a great tune.
Colin and the crew continuing their march to concur every musical genre. Move over DC4C!!!
I Just saw it like 20 times in the Broadway Channel on my JetBlue flight and couldn´t stop laughing!!!! It´s a perfect satire on the German music shows of he 1970´s (Pop in Germany) plus the VHS touch and so on.. Plus the last line ¨um...¨¨Wrong!¨it´s the icing on the cake! A must-nominate, front runner for any upcoming Video Award event. Love THE DECEMBER ISTS!!! >D
A BIG LIKE on it !!
Lol as someone who walked out of 3 decemberists shows back on the 00’s because they “sucked” but now spends at least 2 hrs a day listening to the band... there is indeed a time in a man’s life when the music makes sense. Please fucking go back on tour.
One of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard
"Did it make you better?" The heaviest of questions..
OMG Nick Offerman!
Omg Marshall!
OMG Paul Tandy!
This very much reminds me of the 1976 Fairport Convention live recording for Rockpalast in Germany, I like the throwback very funny
This video is hysterical and genius.
What a voice!!!
Such a good song.
just dicover this AWESOME TUNE ten years later on FX 99,1 Alternative raio -Arizona 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Its a video, its meant to entertain and bring about discussion of the band. I would say job well done guys and gals. Job well done.
Very cool!
He has a John Denver quality about his voice.
...but without the annoying '70's bowlcut.
Especially in the Lake Song (Lyric Video)
This video is magic.
Oh my goodness I cant wait to see you in portland Live!!!
Gotta love that Steve Brule look. For your single!
My favorite 2015´s song so far !! I do love it from the bottom of my heart !
I just cannont understand how it is not on the radios !!!
What an artistic video. I liked it. Great song
Those overalls give me life
Bloody fantastic!
I love this song!
Fantastic tune!
This album is so awesome! I just saw them live for the first time and they were phenomenal.
These guys are great. Their sound is tilted a little different. Love it!
greetings from Greece!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
just broke up with my gf and i stumble upon this. this is a haymaker right in the feels.
+cruhg I hear you, bud.
Today's the year anniversary of getting broken up with. I didn't even connect the lines till today, then it choked me up
+cruhg
I tried to click on your profile image...
But yeah, I'm sorry to hear that you had to go through that. I can't really say that I understand, considering I've, uh, never had a significant other. "Owner of a Lonely Heart" and etc.
You made her worse. Weep and wail for your inadequacies.
@@samuelmorse784 who hurt you sam
God! Colin Meloy it's such an inspiration!
One of my favorites.
Love this one! Can't wait for the new album!
Brilliant! This is making me nostalgic...
Love.
Very "Death Cab", with fuller harmonies toward the end.
jockslap i agree with you, if you hear ""The King is Dead" is all folk/country
yep i know, actually if we want to compare Death Cab with any other band i think Band of Horses have a really close sound sometimes, you should check it, if you don' know them, i recomend them to you XD
jajaja ok!
Javier Hernandez O Band of Horses is much farther from Death Cab than the Decemberists are. Death Cab has more of a simplistic pop appeal and Band of Horses is pretty spacey sounding. Idk... I think people get into trouble when trying to argue that "X band sounds like Y band" because the factors that come into play in someone's interpretation are usually far different from others. In fact, most songs from early Decembrists albums sounds wildly different from this song, and Colin's voice is really the only unifying factor that can help us to determine that it is in fact the Decemberists. Human's propensity to plop things into categories doesn't seem to work all too well with music, even at a genre level. So let's just stop, relax and listen, mkay? =)
Jonathan Vernot except they have got better while death cab has spiraled into a toilet drain. lifetime death cab fan here. RIP death cab. long live colin maloy and the decemberists.
i feel so stupid omg, so i talked to my friend about neutral milk hotel so they introduced me to this band. after watching parks and recreation for the 4287 time, the unity concert i finally realized what band it was i need to slap myself wow
so nice song with a very nice sound..i am love it
I miss her so much, I won’t be better..
I love this so much
This is so great!
I really enjoyed this video and love the band - hope they come to Sydney one of these days.
Love it. raggin on The whistle test
Thank you Stuttgart!
Great video for a great song! That Peavey guitar is a classic!
Great video, I love it, cracked up laughing so hard! Love the song too.
Great song.Love the concept for the video. I wish we had thought of it!!
I actually really enjoyed this video. I was watching on another device that I couldn't give a thumbs up on. Logged in on my phone just so I could give it a thumbs up and comment.
one of the best albums I have heard lately, yeah!
2024 and this song just gets butter and butter
I was perusing TH-cam for the Decemberists and did not expect the Swanson to be in it
OMG just perfect. Nick! And the song is so beautiful!
I wonder if the woman's name is Tammy
Sherri
Could be Tammy Lynnn though
She looks like a Tammy
Después de muchos años, volví a encontrar este gran tema
i've never listened to the decemberists before but i do have to say i'm surprised this is really good
Great humour. Brilliant. Made my day!
สร้างความบันเทิงได้ดีจริงๆ
I haven't laughed so hard at a music video in a long time ... just marvellous !!! the song ain't half bad either
IM FREAKING OUT OVER NICK OFFERMAN
this is really good!
