Watching this video of the Vivian Girls makes me wistful. It is a privilege to see them live and I know it wont last forever. Nothing great ever does. Their music is beautiful. Lightning in a bottle. No one else sounds like them. I will definitely miss them when they are gone. I love the Vivian Girls! -Eric Chicago
THE VIVIAN GIRLS! Thats all you need to know! THEY ROCK! THEY KILL IT!! THEY TEAR IT UP!! THEY ARE THE BEST!!! I love this video! Great music!!! FREAKIN GREAT!!!!!! -Eric Chicago
Yes, not approving the comments ruthlessly bashing their appearance and talent that still come in from witless manbabies nearly four years after the video was uploaded is making them look bad. Nothing makes a band look good like seeing hateful teenagers spouting garbage directly beneath a video. Thanks for the publicity tip, Soraya! Love, Controlling Dick (I was named after an item that is on sale at Babeland right now!)
The Vivian Girls are awesome! I love this song, but I love all their songs! You cant go wrong with the Vivs! If their name is on it, buy it! If they come to your town, go see them! I see them every time they come to Chicago and they are always great! -Eric Chicago
This particular RU-vid video and associated comment section is not and has not been advertised as "an open forum for anybody to express any opinion they want". You're more than welcome to start a website and compile negative comments about anything you want for public consumption. But as long as I run this RU-vid video, I can run it however I want and if you don't like it then maybe you could petition the Diaper Baby Society Of America to force RU-vid's hand on the issue.
This is actually a REALLY good video. It's great that instead of just going with the standard way of doing a performance video, they actually use the fact that it's a video and they can edit it to give the viewer a more whole experience of the performance.
The sheer amount of brainless, hateful twaddle that is submitted for comment on this and every other video I have on RU-vid is depressing to say the least. As long as I have the power to moderate comments and differentiate my content's presentation on the internet from many other presentations that are full of hatespeech, idiocy and misogyny I'm gonna weild it like goddamn Conan.
Man, so many comments about KK... I agree she is very cute, but more to the point to see a female 3 piece playing fuckin rad dregged out garage punk is super good. I love vivian girls
@bikinikiller08 most definitely agree. She has that kinda "fuck you' body language when she's playing like she doesn't care what people think and she just wants to rock. It sort reminds of vocalist liam gallagher in a way... I mean..just the body language. Cassie is fucking awesome though , I could definitely fall for her lol She's definitely my favorite front woman.
@punkkilledhippie But now it does! I want the bands I like to be able to earn a living off the music they make and not fade away into the shadows of auto-tuned dance tracks.
@GalenPepys As the guy who has to delete every comment that insults the ladies for their looks and approves all the compliments (music based or otherwise) I agree with this. Except the "cunt" part, cus that kind of takes the wind out of the sail you were hoisting. But its a worthwhile sail to hoist on a boat of society being less stupid sailing the ocean of equality. Or something. Unless you're British, cus I think "cunt" is the equivalent of "person" in America.
So... we now on our 4th cycle of kids who just learned to play their instruments singing the same stuff in the same way that 3 previous generations have already done. Rock & Roll is so dead... Still, I wish these girls had been around in 1977.
you only allow comments that compliment this band? why not let some of the truth of everyone's opinion come thru? they're good, yeah, but not everyone's cup of tea. it just seems fake to block out every negative reaction.
Anyone who has to filter comments of other people rather than let people express free speech, and then degrade other people for theirs on a public forum should be a politician.
