    C'est tellement vrai ! Et c'est justement lorsqu'on ne regarde plus la télé pendant un moment qu'on s'en rend compte !

    It is the best slaving machine in the hands of dictators. It is sad that there are too many people who don't realize that. So many lies, absolute Propaganda. Lies every minutes on this BS TV. The most watched provider of satelite TV here in Bulgaria offers approximately 150 channels. Only 1 channel talk about truth, our corrupted government, your illegal federal reserve (which made fraud for 15 000 000 000 000 (TRILION) dollars), banksters, who own the world via this corrupted slavery system...

    Yes i get it but the point of the video is also anti-advertising, yet they are using ads to get their point across. There are subliminal techniques where they use this exact style of a flicker of an image to subconsciously implant an idea in your head. This is not a new technique, for all I know this is real advertising and they're using reverse psychology on us.

    You do not seem to get the point of the video, like DinoAndCrew said the fact she wasnt a super model made it look so much more human. True love is based on personality as well as attraction to the oposing or same sex

  44. TynesideDreamFebruary 19, 2012 at 2:21 AM

    Beirut's songs espeically this one is a mixture of emotions and displaying how a human reacts in times of joy, desperation and loss. But they tie there own little things in the video aswell to appeal to a larger audience despite keeping the same lyrics, the only thing i wonder about every day is why did it take me 6 years of being on youtube and 12 years on this planet to find a band like this?

    Not Spam
    GIRL DIED IN 1993, A MAN BURIED HER IN HER OWN home when she was still alive. The murderer chanted, "Toma sota balcu" as he buried her. Now that you have read the chant, you will meet this little girl. In the middle of the night she will stand at the side of your bed starring straight int your eyes. She will suffocate you like she was suffocated. This story is sadly true. If you post this 5 different times she will not bother you
