Top Comments of this video!! :3
I find the lead singer's ability to constantly change his tone in unexpected ways throughout the song super interesting. If you try to sing along yourself with the lyrics right in front of you it's quite difficult. Also, I love how Modest Mouse changes the "main chorus" which makes the entire song lyrically unique and unexpected on first listens.

I miss these music videos. I remember in high school watching this for the first time in the local pizza shop with my friend. The tv used to always be set to the music channel. Didn't realize how great those days were at the time. For modest mouse vibes you should check out Lonely Gimmick - Stay at home to sleep in, it gives me Modest mouse vibes and its my friend from high schools music project. I'm seriously impressed.

Lyrics
Well, it would've been, could've been
Worse than you would ever know
Oh, the dashboard melted, but we still have the radio
Oh, it should've been, could've been
Worse than you would ever know
Well, you told me about nowhere
Well, it sounds like someplace I'd like to go
Oh, it could've been, should've been
Worse than you would ever know
Well, the windshield was broken, but I love the fresh air y'know
(The dashboard melted, but we still have the radio)
Oh, it would've been, could've been
Worse than you would ever know, oh
(The dashboard melted, but we still have the radio)
Oh, we talked about nothing which was more than
I wanted you to know-oh-oh-oh-oh
Now here we go
Oh, It would've been, could've been
Worse than it had even gone
Well, the car was on blocks, but I was already where I want
(It was impossible, we ran it good, we ran it good)
Why should we ever even, ever really even get to know
(It was impossible, we ran it good, we ran it good)
Oh, if the world don't like us
It'll shake us just like we were a co-oh-oh-oh-old
Now here we go
Well we scheme, and we scheme, but we always blow it
We've yet to crash, but we still might as well enjoy it
Standing at a light switch to each east and west horizon
Every dawn you're surprising
And the evening was consoling saying
"See it wasn't quite as, bad as"
Well, it would've been, could've been
Worse than you would ever know
I was patiently erasing and recording the wrong episodes
After you had proved my point wrong
It wasn't like I'd let it go, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
I just wanted to catch the last laugh of this show
Yeah, it would've been, could've been
Worse than you would ever know.
Oh, the dashboard melted, but we still have the radio.
(The dashboard melted, but we ran it good, we ran it good)
Hard-wired to conceive so much we'd have to stow it
Even needs have needs, tiny giants made of tinier giants
Don't wear eyelids so
I don't miss the last laugh of this show
(The dashboard melted, but we still have the radio)
Oh, we could've been, should've been
Worse than you would ever know.
(The dashboard melted but we still have the radio)
Well, you told me about nowhere
Well, it sounds like someplace I'd like to go-oh-oh-oh-oh
Now here we go
Well we scheme, and we scheme, but we always blow it
We've yet to crash, but we still might as well enjoy it
Standing at a light switch to each east and west horizon
Every dawn you're surprising
And the evening was consoling saying
"See it wasn't quite as, bad as"
Oh, it would've been, could've been
Worse than you would ever know

these mid-00s music videos are a lost art. massive, surreal, effects-heavy (but it works) short films in their own right
