She & Him - Why Do You Let Me Stay Here? (Official Video) 

I love Zooey's voice! She sounds like a classic 50s singer.

Can we talk about how underrated She & Him are? Love their work!!

12 years...geez time is flying

Why is she not more famous as a singer? She is so unique and uber talented. I have loved her ever since I heard her sing "Baby, It's Cold Outside" on the movie "Elf". She should be all over the radio channels. She is amazing!

Why do you let me stay here? All by myself Why don't you come and play here I'm just sitting on the shelf Why don't you sit right down and stay a while We like the same things and I like your style It's not a secret, why do you keep it? I'm just sitting on the shelf I got to get your presence Let's make it known I think you're just so pleasant I would like you for my own Why don't you sit right down and make me smile You make me feel like I am just a child Why do you end it? Just give me credit I'm just sitting on the shelf

i love this whole era of style, and everything about her, shes my idol!

zooey is the mother of twee pop and twee fashion!!!

you know i'm suprised that there are trolls on her music, I think she's actually talented with coming up with music that doesn't sound overly mainstream. Good stuff

People are talking about She & Him not getting all this recognition and how sad it is. Did you ever think, maybe it’s not for the world but very few souls living in a rare moment. How lucky you are to find it.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Zooey!!!! She's a GREAT actress, and a great singer too!

Great song. She's describing a pretty common situation which is straightforwardly explained by manosphere/redpill types. She's gotten involved with a man that she's really excited about, but she's wondering why their relationship seems to be a bit stalled, it isn't progressing into something more serious. It sounds like she hasn't met his friends ("It's not a secret; why do you keep it?" "Let's make it known ..."). She asks, why not turn this casual affair-since it seems like it's going so wonderfully-into something more serious, make a commitment to each other, maybe get married eventually. The answer to her musical question is that he has other girlfriends. Turns out that the things she finds exciting about him are also attractive to other women. Dude's getting a lot of milk for free.

I still remember getting ready for school in the summertime going to high school and they would play this on mtv in their morning playlist.

As a former concert producer, music business manager, and entertainment Website publisher, I am thoroughly impressed with Zooey and Matt's work on this album. Not only is Matt WAAAAAY talented, he's also the perfect compliment to Zooey's fun personality, equally brilliant stage presence, refreshing vocals, and heritage-infused melodies. Thanks to Merge/Domino for supporting this talented duo (and their band). I will certainly be buying this CD for my 9 yr. old daughter (errr...and myself!). -

I LOVE this song. It's definitely my favorite on the album. I hope they put out a Volume Two.

ZOOEY IS ADORABLE AND WHAT A PRETTY SINGING VOICE

She & Him started at the top, this is their 'Citizen Kane' musically speaking. A great song, beautifully arranged & produced. Perfection !

I dont know why some people hates the video, this is the cutest thing ever.

Why'd you brought me here, RU-vid? It's September 2019 and I miss Zooey's voice :)

y'all got any more of them pixels

Can we just give a shout out to the creativity of these videos??? so well done.

They really are talented. I even hate listening to the live versions of songs but when it comes to she and him it's totally different, she has such a powerful voice

She couldn't be more adorable.

I still remember when this song was a hit in MTV in 2009/10

This needs an HD update

Such a catchy little tune

I love zooeys sound..she and him, a very amazing band, boggled.

Budget for this video : Five Dollars The Video itself : Priceless

That’s….thats a lot of murder in a music video

It's the stuff MTV was made of. I just discovered these duo a moment ago on iTunes. Am glad to make a find.

I FINALLY FOUND IT. YESSS

Saudades de assistir esse clipe no MTV Lab de manhãzinha antes de ir pra escola, lá nos idos de 2008 😍🥲

I swear it's a time machine back to early high school for me and I love it

this song is sooo freakin badass i love it her voice is just classical/soothing yet familiar great song

Dude, this video is totally awesome. Plus, she can really sing.

eu era feliz nessa época e nem sabia

my friends tell me that she reminds them of me. its the absolute best compliment.

Zooey is so quirky. I love it. She's perfect.

I love the Deschanels! Bones is my favorite tv show. Emily and Zooey both are very talented.

Queen of MPDG and i love her ❤

This is so 60's! LOVE IT.

Yeah, it is very 60's! All of their influences are from 50's, 60's and 70's. She & Him makes this bridge from here to there beautifully.

She couldn't stop being cute if she tried

His name is Matt (M.) Ward. He is part of a supergroup called Monsters of Folk and is an exceptional artist. Zoo(ey) is talented and popular, but it would be hard to forget Matt if you are a musician or lover of all things folk. ;)

✨💞 listening in 2020

Recuerdos de mi juventud. Memories of my teen years

eu te amo Zooey

their songs sound like it came from the 60s, WHICH is very refreshing to hear nowadays, even the arrangement is very quirky, and bucket loads of fun

im just discovering this music now but wowee wowee

Her music is very diffrent from the main streams we hear today, it's unique and adorable just like her. She has a beauty that both female and male could find attractive. Most of all I love the music video, it goes well with the song=)

She is such a girl everyone falls in love with.

Zooey & Matt together = perfection!💖

DIOS esa sonrisa esos ojos azules esa personalidad tan femenina y espectacular que mujer tan perfecta

This song is so good, why it had been recorded with a potato?

zooey is from super fame family.... good to see her doing shit other than movies. She gives free concerts here in L.A. all the time and donates the money to charity. Zooey is a goodness.

this song sounds great

one word to her! SHESBEAUTIFUL!!!

Love this song. I listened to it a lot last summer.

I love this song.

Her voice is amazing and fits for how cute she is.

I love Zooey's work, her sister's work, her father's work (he photographed "The Right Stuff") and her mother's work. I am a big fan of the whole family.

Quarantine makes me miss them alot

Saw this as a 13 year old on television I was like... how weird is this but I like it 😂 thought it was like the carpenters and all hahaha

NO WAY. I had no idea Zooey sang on top of everything!!!!! GAWD I LOVE HER

To me, this is real music. It's so refreshing to be able to listen to music with a soul.

Wow...I love Zooey and this is brilliant

This has such a retro sound and image, I love Zooey Deschanel!

Holy smokes, I just can't get enough of this song. Like the seventeenth time I've replayed it this morning.

zooey is always LOVEABLE !!!

eu nunca me canso desse vídeo! marcou minha adolescência! zooey, m ward

I love how the dude walks up and sees her dead body and he's like "Uhh wtf?"

i cant stop binge watching zooey's past videos help!!!

this song is so much fun to play on guitar. once i get to about 0:44 on guitar, i just get this rush of happiness throughout my body. righteous......

Great song. Love hearing Zooey Deschanel sing. She just sings the song nicely with a greta voice and doesn't need to make loads of weird noises to try and make it sound better, like other singers seem to do now. o.o The comments for this video are so pointless. -_- How many of the people who posted even listened to the song, and how many just came to write pointless crap somewhat related to Zooey Deschanel?

She has a Tracy Ullman vibe to her!

I don't know why I never knew that Zooey sang in a band! I'm only just now finding this out! As if she couldn't be even more of a perfect relatable crush.

she is a wonderful inspiration, I was already in love with Zooey, (&sister) but i just found her music videos.....wow soo f**king pretty and confident

When she says "all by my self" I hear "obama self"

I gotta hand it to whoever Zooey Deschanel's management/handlers are. The decision to make her the "ain't I so precious" indie queen was a stroke of ab-so-lute genius. All it took was a bottle of black hair color and some coaching in how to act "eccentric, but not TOO eccentric" and "super kitcschy/cutesy/nerdy"...and boom! Megastar!! Seriously brilliant!

this was the first she and him song i ever listened too

Lovely song!!! xoxo The Clarences

У каждой группы есть выдающийся трек, который могут слушать люди с разными предпочтениями. Именно этот трек я поставил на мелодию звонка, так как он единственный из всех этой группы имеет сложность (много инструментов и шумов), ритмичность и вокал. Остальные треки этой группы бедны инструментами и звуками, хотя при должной обработке могут заиграть новыми красками.

Absolutely livid about the twee revival in 2022

It is never too late and always welcome when it arrives. It is amazing really and so ONE can only embrace it ! :) Love and Peace to all

please help me, I cant stop watching her, she is the cutest thing

I have a request... could my fellow fans of this song praise it without slagging off other artists?

shes the reason i want bangs

I love how incredibly disturbing & yet humorously addicting this video is!

Gosh I love her personality!!!!

I remember her from Weeds... she was Andy's crazy stalker ex-girlfriend. She's so cute

IF I HAD MONEY ID DRESSED LIKE HER

I love her, i dont care about anything else, she is perfect!!!!!

240p? Really? That's the best you could upload?!

Anos se passaram e eu ainda amo essa musica ♥

最高

This song mean so much to me. And Zooey is just cute and lovable.

As a woman, she made me believe that... God is NOT fair :| Btw, I think I have a Carpenters flashback :")

i am so glad that twee is coming back!!

I love this song 🎵

The drum breakdown at (2:05) is bonkers.
