| kinda cool | ||||||
| I likes it. | ||||||
| i liekd it... and ive been looking for that song for a while now
| ||||||
| I hope people don't think I'm trying to be intellectual. It's a pretty basic concept. A slave thinks about the meaning of his toils. Whoop-dee-doo. But it's funny that this slave is an ant. I wonder if I could keep him as a pet... | ||||||
| poor little guy just needs some pootang he will be alright | ||||||
| cool | ||||||
| he is a warrior ant (large mandibles) so he is doing his jog as a look out ..... but it seems like he is watching Donnie Darko or that weard Gears of War commercial | ||||||
| I'm seriously not trying to be a dick to all your sites, but I think it'd be better with fast paced carnival music. | ||||||
| Yaaaa!!! Another Tricolor! Friggin finally mate where ya been? Lol | ||||||
| I take that back, you have been around so it seems because you responded to my post on your "Mad Ocean" Ytmnd.
Good stuff, just havent seen enough of your work ^.-, I wish there was a way to sort your words in chronological order. | ||||||
| That is a soldier ant acting as a vigilant to protect the stream of workers foo. | ||||||
| Spacepirate, get past your little moment and stop to think about the YTMND.
Now, to make it simple....
The "Worker" Ant (As he ment it to be portrayed), is "Thinking", and those "Thoughts" are portrayed by the song being played. | ||||||
| lol, cept thats a soldier. | ||||||
| My interpretation of this is as follows:
The ants continue their life unthinkingly, doing what is being told to them by instinctual feelings.
The ant being the only one standing still is a representation of the fact that none of the ants have the intellectual capacity to do such a thing and being a thinking being he stands alone.
Im sure that it can be interpreted differently depending on the person. | ||||||
| wtf?? he hast stopped because he wanted to.. he stepped on something and is stuck.. | ||||||
| That's not a worker, it's a soldier. Hence, he's standing still on guard.
You can tell he's a soldier because of his huge jaws. | ||||||
| It's ****ing amazing. | ||||||
| HMI should pick this for their next site imo. | ||||||
| Well done | ||||||
| Needs more bees and hives ;) | ||||||
| LOL GEARS OF WAR | ||||||

| mad world ftw | ||||||
| lol, gears of war XD | ||||||
| When I first heard this song on the Gears of War commercial I thought you would be the first to make a really good ytmnd out of it. | ||||||
| hes not thinking, he's standing gaurd. Song does not correllate. No hard feelings right? | ||||||
| Thanks, ive been wanting to know the name of that song ever since i saw the gears of War commercial. | ||||||
| Yeaa thats a guard ant, not worker. You can tell by the mandibles. Still an interesting clip tho. | ||||||
| It's a soldier...dreaming of madness. | ||||||
| aghhh its so overplayed, it hurts my ears, its a remix of a cover, aghhhh | ||||||
| I like how his mandibles and antenna kinda look like crazy long eyebrows and mustache. It kinda reminds me of a drawing of confucious or some far east philosopher/monk kind of guy. Which is oddly fitting :P | ||||||
| you might as well just stick it in the next guys *ss having that song on there | ||||||
| bravo | ||||||
| My advice to the ant: give up on the monarchist dictatorship you call "the colony" and become your own arthropod. There's more to life than being just one amongst the crowd. Ant workers of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but your chains! | ||||||
| "Did I leave the gas on?" | ||||||
| this is an extremely cool site. a lil funny. a lil interesting. well done in my opinion. and tehnubzorz gets teh award for best "comment to break the entire vibe" of the year | ||||||
| Gears of War commercial song ftw | ||||||
| ^ you guys read that too? | ||||||
| "Gears of War commercial song ftw" this makes me sad. (also, not a worker ant) | ||||||
| Song is better known from donnie darko. |
+1 | |||||
| I wish all of the more artistic type ytmnds were as good as this one. | ||||||
| It took you countless iterations of this exact formula to create something of intrinsic worth... | ||||||
| Clever. That song was awesome in Donnie Darko, it was cool to see it in that GoW commercial, and now this. Gary Jules is rolling in his.... not grave. | ||||||
| Has any idiot here ever freakin heard of Tears For Fears. For God's sake. Thats a gears of war song. No this whole damn song is originally a Tears For Fears song. Go read a book. | ||||||
| You're getting five stars, mostly because I'm drunk, but also because this is a deep and heartfelt YTMND. Good job, tricolor. | ||||||
| I love this :o fav'd | ||||||
| awesome. | ||||||
| 5 for the song, but the ant is a soldier ant. Thats why he isnt moving, end of story. | ||||||
| Wow, I need this remix
| ||||||
| rofl, the sound clip is excellent. Nicely built. | ||||||
| only thing more lacking in creativity than this ytmnd is this remix of Mad World. Add drum machine = remix? f-f-f-fail. | ||||||
| There are days when I feel like that, too... worker ant or not, 5'd. | ||||||
| 5'd for mad world | ||||||
| I ENCOURAGE WAREZ http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=intitle%3Aindex.of+%22mp3%22+%2B%22Gary%20Jules%22+-htm+-html+-php+-asp+%22Last%20Modified%22&btnG=Search | ||||||
| Absolutely beautiful, just like every one of your sites have been so far. Keep up the good work! Oh.. by the way is it possible you could post that full song somewhere? I have the original Gary Jules version but not the remix. =( | ||||||
| I knew it was you even before I clicked for the info. Nicely done. | ||||||
| idiots.. it doesnt matter if its a soldier ant.. they move too. read a book or something | ||||||
| This is deep. I like it. | ||||||
| your gay666 | ||||||
| Yes, Tears for Fears made the original; but this is the Gary Jules remix of it. He cited it correctly, so you fail. 5 stars for good citing. | ||||||
| Nice | ||||||
| his fellow anys will eat him | ||||||
| soldier ant | ||||||
| I like this. Thoughtful and unexpected. Also ... This version of the song blows the original away. Ever hear the original? The msuic does not match the words at all - The lyrics strum up melancholy and dreamy thoughts and the Gary Jules version does that beautifully. | ||||||
| Nice remix. | ||||||
| Tricolor, you win again. I'm also surprised that you used a different part of Mad World. :^) | ||||||
| sim ant! | ||||||
| 5'd | ||||||
| ZOMG STOLEN FROM THE GEARS OF WAR COMMERCIAL IT WAS AN ORIGINAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! XD | ||||||
| 5 for Donnie Darko. | ||||||
| that's awesome | ||||||
| contrieved and seems 2 be on the tip of the tounge of many ytmnds now a days, but you hit the zietgeist grats | ||||||
| Awesome. | ||||||

| "songage" ^_^ | ||||||
| Simple but original: brilliant! | ||||||
| Super neat, I'd say. Neat idea, good choice of music, and I really like ants. | ||||||
| sweet :) | ||||||
| Great music choice. | ||||||
| You win! | ||||||
| meh, GoW is better | ||||||
| I hate this site, because of that Donnie Darko song and because it has the whole "I see so much beauty" crap going on. GTFO | ||||||
| as someone has already noted, that's clearly a soldier ant, and it's acting as essentially a lookout for the others. But yeh clever/amusing. | ||||||
| Mhm. | ||||||
| I'm pretty sure he's a soldier ant... -1 for not being antitomically correct | ||||||
| lol , he's not stupid | ||||||
| lol, ant | ||||||
| thats not a worker ant, thats a guard ant THAT GUARDS THE WORKER ANTS YOU DUMBASS | ||||||
| Introspective emo ant. | ||||||
| I really, really dislike that song due to its rampant misuse on ytmnd. Also, that's a soldier ant. | ||||||
| That's not what the video label said, although I agree that it is probably a guard ant. | ||||||
| that's deep | ||||||
| No lols here. | ||||||
| i want his job | ||||||
| It is kind of neat. You win sir. | ||||||
| I like it I would change the music though | ||||||
| i gots the shivers. although someone ruined it by saying it wasnt the same type of ant or whatever. anyway, well executed tricolor. the image placed in the center works really well. | ||||||
| Artistic, and not the bullsh*t artistic that Royal4 and Hive Minded Individuals try to pull. | ||||||
| That ant is obviously a soldier being it is bigger and has larger mandables. | ||||||
| i like this, but that song is terribly misused in the gears of war commercial out right now... | ||||||
| Thats actually an ant queen. It is laying eggs | ||||||
| I thought all the workers were female. | ||||||
| you badass f*cker. | ||||||
| Donnie Darko, very nice. | ||||||
| I 5'd this and then I saw it was a tricolor site.... so I went back and 5'd it again for good measure. | ||||||
| ...:) | ||||||
| this is great. love the gary jules remix | ||||||
| I really like it. | ||||||
| And thus the ants discover socialism. | ||||||
| whats with all this crap about it being a soldier ant so that must be why its staying in one spot? soldier ants move too retards, how else would they know another ant colony is attacking or whatever? wait for the intruding ant to come up to it and be like hey im attacking kill me? | ||||||
| A definite 5 for such a creative work (and a nice find)
But for the record, those large mandibles mean it's a soldier ant, not a worker. | ||||||
| good choice of music. I was expecting the lonely man song. 5 | ||||||
| "And thus the ants discover socialism." | ||||||
| ^^ I'm faving this just for that comment. | ||||||
| Looks like a guard | ||||||
| potential to be intellectual, still funny at the same time, good music choice with the remix, you sir got 5'd :) | ||||||
| Nice :) | ||||||
