I love this song and so many others from these guys. "How hard is it to decide to be in a good mood and then just be...in a good mood?" "Just forget forgivin' and accept that that's it." "You can live your life in control and be nice,But even that will not promise you a happy life" I love those lines
Love this song so much, it's a real mood changer, I occasionally go to this if I'm feeling like I need to sort my shit out. Kind of silly to be inspired by music in this way, but it is pretty inspiriring.
people always spout the "this music changed my life maaan" but when someone says it in reference to this song I can truly believe them it's a fucking crime this video has so few views, this right here is god damned art
I love that he uses a quote here from Lloyd Dobler in Say Anything. Fantastic movie, but this song is better. Mr. Pip you sir are more than just a song writer, but a philosopher, and your music's truly impacted my life. Thank you.
its so true dont you think, just seems so simple, yet so affective, iv been constanly happy for the last 2 months because of it, peace man, have a good life xxx
Basically what I'm trying to say to you is, You don't achieve anything by letting the past rule within you, Getting all pent up and angry about stuff just eats away inside you, What's that other line of yours.. 'If you can't forgive and forget, How's this, Forget forgivin' and just accept that that's it', See that's how it's gotta be. Then you can fall in love, get on with your life and be free", favorite part! scroobius is a genius and dan le sac knows a good beat when he hears it!
If there ever was a plea, to live life. It would be this composition. The tone of desperation at the end is almost palpable. I find myself shedding a cathartic tear, letting go of another brick of pain, letting it fall upon th ground, as I make my own beat. As with all music that matters, I walk away different than when I entered.
like they say in their "thou shalt always kill" song, "Thou shalt remember that guns, bitches and bling were never part of the four elements and never will be." now that's good hiphop :]
The subtitles are a nice touch... I hope he keeps it up. People who perform but are introspective, I think might be more inclined to take their own life when they have more to give.... MJ took his own life by mistake, but too many geniuses take their life coz the hurt is too much... "Forget forgiving and just be free." it's only stuff. Stuff doesn't represent us. the biggest killer of men under 45 is self imposed... We needn'd worry we are the same as everyone else.... sadness is not a weakness, call a helpline nigguh. or talk to a female relative.. they're made to be nurturing.
Walter Neff is from "Double Indemnity," an old Noir film - which would be in keeping with the song's mention of "New York in old films." Billy Brown is possibly from "Buffalo '66," it's the only reference to the name that I can find on IMDB (all of the names seem to be from films).
You may think yourself in general to be a nice guy, But I'm telling you now - that right there is a lie, Even the nicest of guys has some nasty within 'em, You don't have to be backlit to be the villain, Whether it be greed lust or just plain vindictiveness, There's a level of benevolence inside all of us, You can paint yourself an image and live in your own little dream, But this ain't a dream, it's one big silver screen, So when you think you've got your happy ending don't ever forget it,
'If you can't forgive and forget, How's this, Forget forgivin' and just accept that that's it', See that's how it's gotta be. Then you can fall in love, get on with your life and be free"
@holuj49 AFAIK his origins lie in spoken word poetry. He's only rolled into this by accident when he met Dan Le Sac, rather than tried to make it in music. His lyrics are based on his poetry, rather than written specifically for a musical piece. That's why the style is so hard to place, since his vocals are not what you'd usually find in music - They're not lyrics, but poetry.
that is a line out of the film say anything, where the character lloyd dobler is from . you probably know that. i might be coming across as an ass. what i mean to say is when i saw the film i tried it and it was reinforced by this song and you are right. it is definitely life changing.
Most negative emotions are a result of the sensory cortex responding to threat (heat on skin / painful memory / loud noise ...), which in turn kicks the sympathetic cortex to translate the primitive signals into emotion causing chemicals that colour our thoughts up here in the cerebral cortex. Point being, if you learn to ignore the undesired thoughts that pop into your head, you can avoid the negative thought pattern that follows to cause a foul mood, ergo, master your emotions.
@Nepas3 The lessons you can get from the song. the characters mentioned are from: Elwood P Dowd - "Harvey" Lloyd Doppler - "Say Anything" Billy Brown - "Buffalo 66" Walter Neff - "Double Indemnity"
i swear everyone who has made mention to the album has called is 'angels' not 'angles'.... why is this? surely not everyone has mistyped it, and if you've actually listened to the album you'll undertand that 'angles' makes loads more sense than 'angles'..... sort it out guys.
@TheAsymmetrical immanuel kant is the greatest role model for anyone. 99.99% people who study philosophy say he lived a VERY unremarkable life,,, rarely left his home town etc etc, but this is the wrong view. the people who say this are the ones who are subconsciously torn up and need so much that we would obviously assume that if he doesnt have all that stuff that his life is unremarkable,,we should look at ourselves before we look at him!, i ramble! only to help though!
I feel rather than a music artist Scroobius (whilst having the ability to make fucking awesome tunes) is more of a preecher (not the jahova's witness annoying type) but the make you think about yourself and smile type :D

He's a mix between a philosopher and a writer; he's a poet (:

Subscribing to everyone I run into who has this beautiful man's art. Much Love to the owner of the channel..
Its a little like a Christmas Carol
Awesome happy gigs.
Their album (called Angels) was released May 2008 in UK & Sept 2008 in US.
It's well worth buying!

favorite part! scroobius is a genius and dan le sac knows a good beat when he hears it!
Possibly his best
amazing...every song he does feels like one of the deepest speeches i have ever heard...
5 people didn't hear the beat kick in
This is my favourite song of all time
I found this by accident but it defiantly serves my purpose. ima keep up with these brothers. peace from first and last uk.

absolutely awesome song
like they say in their "thou shalt always kill" song,
"Thou shalt remember that guns, bitches and bling were never part of the four elements and never will be."
now that's good hiphop :]
just heard this via a mates recommendation,its a superb,very clever,magic,i must see them asap
Yes. Billy Brown is from Buffalo 66. The movie is all about accepting your past and letting it go.
didnt know that mate, cheers, defo going to look up this film,
xxx

Epic song. Great beginning, too.
When I posted this back in 2009 youtube had a video limit that was longer than this song.
saw them live flipping great! !!!!

@theabobination My mind blew this song to thank it for blowing my mind.
You may think yourself in general to be a nice guy,
But I'm telling you now - that right there is a lie,
Even the nicest of guys has some nasty within 'em,
You don't have to be backlit to be the villain,
Whether it be greed lust or just plain vindictiveness,
There's a level of benevolence inside all of us,
You can paint yourself an image and live in your own little dream,
But this ain't a dream, it's one big silver screen,
So when you think you've got your happy ending don't ever forget it,
awesome song. Go ahead and cut it in half you haven't already.
'If you can't forgive and forget,
How's this,
Forget forgivin' and just accept that that's it',
See that's how it's gotta be.
Then you can fall in love, get on with your life and be free"
This song is like crack...dont like crack
its a windup.... but do like the tune,,, even when it winds me up
Tell them Scroob im allowed to call myself a Pikey if i want, Pike are Kings of the river and im from the river crouch infact its my heratage

this is amazing
@smiththatsoriginal
that line completely changed my life..
thank fuck for scroobius pip :D
Because of the 'ahhh mr.pip he said out loud' ?
You could say that, but the guy is called Scroobius Pip, he's just really clever with his writing (Y)
that is a line out of the film say anything, where the character lloyd dobler is from . you probably know that. i might be coming across as an ass. what i mean to say is when i saw the film i tried it and it was reinforced by this song and you are right. it is definitely life changing.

I just realized the "someone" that whispered in Elwood's ear was Harvey :)
Wow, I had no idea. Thanks for the info.
WOW insane song lol!
The fact is i sleep a lot!
Fuck this song is awsome. This shit is so inspirational!!!!
Good stuff.
Waiting for the beat to kick in reminds me of Goa music.... fuckin wind up like smokin crack, fuck that. Love this lyrics again though
angles refers to the song angles where he speaks about the boy who steals and commits suicide after being caught
right after he says that, he moves on to billy brown who is nervous and sketchy. he says "You can't let the past dwell within you".
it is Angles, look at the album cover - that's definitely not a typo :).
It's just a lot of people making a mistake :)
@Nepas3 The lessons you can get from the song. the characters mentioned are from:
Elwood P Dowd - "Harvey"
Lloyd Doppler - "Say Anything"
Billy Brown - "Buffalo 66"
Walter Neff - "Double Indemnity"
5 people you meet in heaven the song
SCROOBIUS WILL BE A RAP LEGEND!
nothing needs to be said, the song says it all
this song literally changed my life. sounds cliche but it's true
i swear everyone who has made mention to the album has called is 'angels' not 'angles'.... why is this? surely not everyone has mistyped it, and if you've actually listened to the album you'll undertand that 'angles' makes loads more sense than 'angles'..... sort it out guys.
Back when TH-cam had a 10min max…
Waiting for the beat to kick in , but it never does.. well i still enjoy the song!! I DONT CARE!! :D
My name is Walter Neff I'm the only one left!
@TheAsymmetrical immanuel kant is the greatest role model for anyone. 99.99% people who study philosophy say he lived a VERY unremarkable life,,, rarely left his home town etc etc, but this is the wrong view. the people who say this are the ones who are subconsciously torn up and need so much that we would obviously assume that if he doesnt have all that stuff that his life is unremarkable,,we should look at ourselves before we look at him!, i ramble! only to help though!
@CraigHerndon2009 maybe he's the personification of a part of the scroob?
has he ever made a song like published and sold in shops?
I always think Edwad P Dowd is Monty of whatever you said
Weird night tho
It's actually part of the song on the album. Ask scroobius over on his myspace or something. Goodluck getting a reply.
he swore in it :/
@xxoscarxx67 It's called "Reading My Dreams", it'sa hidden track :)
@TeddehSpaghetti Just one problem with that. It's "There's a level of Malevolence inside all of us" ;)
5:40 and here come the feeeeeeeelllssssssss
TeddySpaghetti hey sexy lady wyd
I love scoob!
If i was 30... :P
i love the line at 4:40-142
Isnt this about the book Great expectations?
He has a few CDs man. Pay attention to things.
Song reminds me of the last episode of Evangelion.
@minxamo Are you talking about the Bonus track on the album? Or part of the actual song?
I feel rather than a music artist Scroobius (whilst having the ability to make fucking awesome tunes) is more of a preecher (not the jahova's witness annoying type) but the make you think about yourself and smile type :D
a philosopher
The beat are the police
dud I say that before ?
I just quoted you on facebook, hope you don't mind, I gave you credit as well lol
3:26
try it, its life changing,
xxx
Coincidentally, you spelled Angels wrong in your post about spelling and reading.
Please expand...
Whats the spoken bit at the end, around 7:30 onwards? thats not on the album version is it?
"Reading My Dreams"
Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip Lyrics
She’s had such a long day and work has been stressful
As she arrives home to me weary and restful
To relax her I lead her to lay on the bed
And remove all the clothes from her waist to her head
My thumbs gently kneed the base of her back
And my nails trace patterns not leaving a scratch
My hands plot a wandering route up her spine
Then onto her shoulders to help her unwind
I pray the emotion is taking effect
As I lay a kiss upon the nape of her neck
She rolls onto her back her eyes squinted and dreamy
As I gaze at her smile and the beauty beneath me
I gently lean forward presenting a kiss
Onto the lips so long I have missed
When our eyes meet like this and it’s just like before
We both instantly realise we need nothing more
I adjust to rest upon her sweet breast
And on her torso more so
In each others arms and with interlocked hands
Lay two smiling faces and one set of plans

Who is Billy Brown? I know Elwood P.Dowd, Walter Neff and Lloyd Dobbler. Help me.

@Aritumex tim roth, also in the incredable hulk

its am amazing song but whats with the bit at the end. im not saying i dont like it but i dont understand why :L
'angles' makes loads more sense than 'angles'

ehhhh.....
