Modest Mouse - Dramamine

My son played this song on his keyboard and sent it to me in 2008 along with the original. He was out of the country studying abroad. He passed away in 2014 from opiates, my god he loved Modest Mouse.

Modest Mouse is the only band to make your depression worse, yet be kind enough to help you through the roughest patches.

I saw modest mouse live a couple days back, and they fucking opened with this song, it was literally the most magical moment of my life

I once listened to this song while driving to urgent care with a fever of 104. I'll never forget that experience.

This song was shown to me by someone I love with all of my heart. I got him clean and spent every single day with him for months. He ended up dying in an accident on January 12th This is our song... Im going to visit his grave in May and I'm playing this for him on my guitar one last time I love you Ziggy -your Mitzy

This song will forever take me back to when i was 14-16, chilling with my best friend who now lives 600 miles away. When we had no cares in the world, spending the majority of our time together exploring this world. What I would give to go back to those days for just a little while. 

Long ago now, this song helped me through a really rough patch in my life. It's the perfect soundtrack for a drive through the night, moving away from a city that has rejected you.

This is less of music and more of just philosophical artistic genius

This video is the reason I will never make a Dramamine video. This is perfect.

Its music like this that can simultaneously make you feel melancholy but relaxed, contemplative or nostalgic and also at peace. I like finding the melancholy/slightly upbeat songs in every genre. I am drawn to it.

Had to come see this particular video of Dramamine. So many years ago I watched this in my earlier 20s and it fascinated me and that was the start of me becoming a Modest Mouse fan. I’m 36 now and it still hits. Rest In Peace Jeremiah.

RIP Jeremiah Green, this is one of my favorite songs. May your spirit live on through your music ✌️

I have always thought that a guitarist that can make a simple riff sound amazing is a better guitarist than one who can make a complicated riff sound alright. Isaac is the master of making simple riffs into audible gold. Dramamine is a perfect example of his ability to do this.

Damn man, this isn't the official video? Holy crap, dude. It's amazingly well done and fits the song so well. Props to you.

This song makes me depressed but, in a good way.

I watch this everyday, so good, the video is perfect , it goes so well together. And the cartoon is from the safe driver's education film ''Stop driving us crazy'' from 1958.

Love, love, love the guitar riffs in this song!

this song makes me think about miscommunication in a relationship, somethings wrong, its not working out, but they keep trying to get the most out of it that they can. also dph...

This song reminds me of coming down off of shrooms for the first time. Driving home after a 6 hour trip where I spent all my time in the woods, alone, marveling at the beauty I had never taken the time to see in the simplicity of the world - feeling and experiencing the true power of the human brain and the immense amount of phenomena around us we fail to perceive. Only to realize as soon as I got home, all of that would fade, and slowly I would fall back into place - words came back to the forefront of all interactions, manmade things became real again, and slowly my sensory dulled back to its base level. The serenity in realizing the beauty around us, but simultaneously coming to the realization that alone, I could probably never appreciate it for what it truly is on a consistent basis without completely ostracizing myself from all that is modern life... that feeling forever lingers with me, the way this song just patters on in repetition. It's like being lost, but found at the same time, in a cycle. Never knowing where you're going, or where you are, only that you belong somewhere else.

This was one of the first songs my partner showed me when we met. He said Modest Mouse was basically his favourite band. We listened to the songs together, although we were physically seperated, our minds were at the same place. I remember these days so vividly, how connected I felt. I wonder what has happened between then and now
