STENDHAL SYNDROME
Did you see that painting what Rothko did?
Looks like it was painted by a two year old kid
Hot air
Ignorance is bliss yeh well I'm not pleased
As you spread your opinion like a wretched disease
Hot air
Did you see that photo what Billingham took?
He needs to take a leaf out the screen-saver book
Hot air
If all photos were as you wanted them to be
There'd be page three as far as the eye could see
Hot air
Forgive me you sound stupid
Here lies the one I love
Did you see that self what Francis Bacon did?
It don't look nothing like him what a fucking div
Hot air
Did you see that drawing what Basquiat done?
Looks like it was drawn by my four year old son
Hot air
Forgive me, you sound stupid
Here lies the one I love.

He dances in 17 museums 7 days a week

[@tommyrandall3489]

I'm in love with the dancing of this beutiful bearded man.

[@sebastianolds4277]

It's the bass player

[@fausty150]

Why don't you like art? Even Mary Berry likes art.

[@danielhanslik4112]

Well done.

[@georgoussnowsaintfullysinn9975]

I nearly pissed myself laughing, at that, that is fucking beautiful.

[@SubPablum]

Who the fuck is Mary Berry? th-cam.com/video/oje4G0vfchY/w-d-xo.html

[@fausty150]

@@SubPablum She's a cook, that does TV shows in the UK.

[@hoppinonabronzeleg9477]

Well done! Even Tarquin likes modern art!!

[@TyphusAndronicus]

Mary Berry likes modern art

[@AndyB1286]

So why don't you like modern art?
Well done. 😁

[@johnnutter1399]

Favorite band of the 2020s probably to the end of the decade

[@zj9923]

Got that "Forgive me you sound stupid
Here lies the one I love" in the loop.

[@ali-bobblobfish8762]

1:57 that lady 😂😂

[@EclecticoIconoclasta]

this video makes me want to go back to painting

[@user-hj2bm5po9t]

do it already!

[@unicanir]

YOU CAN DO IT!

[@cerim119]

I have to thank my partner for playing Idles over a year ago to me! I haven't loved a band like this for a long time. Thankgod for my top bloke!!

[@PianoBangBang]

@1:56 gives me so much joy.

[@ApparentlyShane]

This remains one of my favourite music videos ever.

[@olgagrinko4511]

I love your music videos, but this one is still my all time favourite

[@aaroncee1454]

Idles has a lot of interesting and amazing music videos, but Adam being adorable for 2:37 minutes is by far the best.
I demand a part two.

[@lissyemmy]

This glorious video has given me a new appreciation for art. And bald men with beards.

[@littlerelief5029]

I need to share this as 'virtual museum tour' that all the museums are doing during Covid-19

[@spook9155]

First song my mate introduced me to. Just heard 'hot air' shouted aggressively, knew this was the lot for me

[@gentlemanscarecrow5987]

You can tell he's being very careful not to wreck any of the art. Gotta admit I get super anxious even just standing within a couple feet of anything in an art gallery, let alone dancing like I'm listening to this song.

[@JG-ib7xk]

I don't think that crossed his mind once to be honest

[@chrishandsley2909]

What a sound! Thank you idles!

[@cliffjones2552]

surely one of the all time greatest pop videos? SURELY!!!!!!

[@samuelparsons9816]

reminds me of when the Dead Kennedys released California Uber Allës and some people completely misunderstood it and took it to be a rallying cry for the far right.....some things never change......

[@industrialborn]

Those people are called normies, culture noobs, soft boiled eggs ....and they are fine I guess

[@thetruthmessenger6358]

UNreal.........the bass player who does not talk unless years go by.......gets his own video...Killer track and another 100 grand saved on video costs....... love Idles low Fi hi def personal footage videos........why waste money on special effects and huge production crews for videos.....its the Music that IS TRUTH..... Video may have killed the radio star at one point. But now a days, The music is THE real beast. Idles is Super Beast.....2021

[@JudasPriestLiam]

Only realizing now the importance of the paintings he's dancing around. looool.

[@Exodus588]

Saw you guys open up for dead Kennedy's and I can't get enough of you guys!!! Can't wait for the 10th of March. Have to come out to see you all again

[@DXBCI]

Was at that gig too and been following the band ever since

[@dansaunders1655]

Man Idles and Kennedys would be my dream gig if Jello were still with the dks

[@pcores]

i'm a sucker for a light heavy weight punk with some good dance moves. marry me.

[@MegaCirse]

It’s as beautiful as the first improbable encounter, then fortuitous of an umbrella and a sewing machine on a dissecting table!

[@gwen_the_badger3042]

man, I didn't know about this syndrome! I literally get it whilst listening to some of your songs!

[@johnbeers5527]

As a lover of abstract art but despiser of Mark Rothko, I approve this message.

[@GorkAlejandro]

This gotta be one of my favorite music videos ever

[@BuildItToTheMAX]

just discovered this band a few weeks ago, this and well done are definetly my current favourite tunes. Absolutely fucking quality :))))

[@deannafriesen243]

Love this!

[@tobyb1018]

Watched this three times in a row just now and cannot stop laughing- legit actually "lol" whole typing this 😝😝 another in your face catchy punk toon like Well Done and a great video- low (zero?) budget genius! Looking forward to the album boys x

[@DeleNeedsHelp]

BEST. VIDEO. EVER.

[@MrCaptainSnax]

This whole video is just what i do when i go to an art exhibit.
You know, angrily writhing around, while looking for the nearest mosh pit...

[@meri4852]

THIS is how you art history🎨

[@michaelrg3836]

I love this so much! Music! Video! Action!

[@grantdustin1]

Brilliant and shiny 0:11

[@nomaddd123]

Bacon and Basquiat in the same song? This is gold

[@mxherro]

first time viewer thanks to the Foookin Peaky Blinders, listening to IDLES while idle at work but had to watch and rewatch this epic example of how most of humanity feels touring art museums.

[@kohlemainen]

Start your day with this and all will be well.

[@apetrovskidarmon]

love you guys

[@epicbenstudios]

Someone send this to Paul Joseph Watson.

[@JoroJojoro]

[@HarryQuinn03]

[@bobroberts8264]

I'm an artist and i couldnt agree more

[@lawrencescales9864]

I feel this so fucking deeply as an artist, great job and funny/but thoughtful video as well.

[@ferlor]

Temon

[@crispypixel2012]

Great! Looking forward to see you at Haldern Pop this summer...!

[@IDLESBAND]

crispypixel2012 thank you! Come say hello!

[@Llyander]

I love this. Heard it on 6 Music this morning on my way into work. Now eagerly looking forward to your album release!

[@sgtjonnymcdeath4049]

Cambridge - Portland Arms - Bring it!

[@thecrowfamily9612]

I'm sure I heard some arty bird going on about the best art being a combination of the comic and the sinister. Dunno 'bout that, but if she's right, these guys are like Van Gogh, Beethoven and Shakespeare rolled into one (I know, I know). A charming soundtrack to which one can punch oneself repeatedly in the face. More please.

[@markbowensmoustache]

my favorite viking

[@sarakeck5818]

The only reason why I go to Sziget festival next year is to see this man dancing

[@rckkatansky5783]

1.18 look like the battle of jersey. great track looking fwd to seeing you at the Moth Club on 10th, coming over from Jersey specifically for this gig, my favourite band for years.

How to be humourless.

Seeing you lads in London in March. Can't fucking wait!

[@proppe42]

sensational

[@eanspace9381]

you'll grow into it xxx

[@eanspace9381]

brilliant

[@uncontrolable777]

damn this band is cool!

[@Nirvana-vg1lh]

The song and the video as one. When I see an almost middle aged man dancing in a nonchalante way in front of a Francis Bacon or some other paintings I can't recall right now, I clearly witness the indiference and ignorance in which those artists (more or less) have lived during their time. It's in that yuxtaposition where the work trascends, gets elevated in a way. The man dancing functions as a -in my mind- decoy for my conscious to let the unconscious take place. Hard to explain. Instead of feeling offended or else, I can really see the full picture.

[@RudolfAmbrozVOD]

Is this about Paul Joesph Watson?

[@iTomAnks]

Love this! Heard it on 6Music, keep up the good work lads

[@davohsaurus]

Speaking as someone who has been posted in museums, this is exactly how you feel after presenting your still.

[@ciancio_lautaro.4401]

Pobre Rothko.

[@999777333OM]

PUNK SPIRIT NOT DEAD !!!

[@jjdecani]

The Sleaford Mods called. They want their basic shtick back.

[@jjdecani]

That said, this is really good.

[@swingAE86]

I often feel like dev looks like he would sound like joe

[@proppe42]

didn't know the tate did performance art :D heehee good fun x

[@ericbartelt4556]

After a fucking hundred views still my goddam fave 👊🙄

[@ricardorsantos]

Someone want to see the bloopers in this vid?

[@ozymandias9549]

@ 0:28 the Carlton dance

[@iain4456]

how many tuts did you receive in the making of that video?

[@Halfagrapefruit]

I like it but why didn't you get the real Phil Mitchell?

[@berettam92f]

i am a big fan of Rothko but i can't stop laughing on this

[@connorchapman1232]

이예준 They're being sarcastic just so you know

[@roydy1210]

I'm sure they are too, the criticism is HOT AIR! The art is respected

[@sewerslidemg]

[@saltyjohnny]

[@geeess9436]

Does anyone know what mic they use to get this sound?

[@oscarrocabert6268]

O sea

[@mthowitt]

Fuck ,love this band.

[@andres.garcia99]

Wow, you can really notice the Johnny Rotten influence on the vocals

[@NickSBailey]

Yep Rotten and Crass but with better lyrics. No anarchyst from IDLES.

[@elisselinari8361]

Is this filmed in London's National Gallery? Or a combination of different museums?
