You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself marry the villain

He won the custody battle and that's hilarious. Maybe a villain, but never a bad father.

7 years later and I'm still coming back to this. One of the greatest music videos of all time.

My absolute favorite part is when the one henchman gives the villian's sick dance move an "oooo" at 1:40

glad mike snow understands the inherent eroticism of enemies to lovers

"So agent, how did you stop him this time?" "I...uh...married him sir." "....Well congratulations."

More than anything in the world, I want to see a full motion picture adaptation of this story.

His cute little angry dancing!!! The “kill” “release” buttons-shot. This is perfection. I can’t stop watching and smiling!

The henchman that pauses to eye the camera and give a cheeky 'ooooh' needs a raise.

He got custody of the kids in the divorce, she got the evil empire in the divorce

I really love the way the choreography changes from frantic and disjointed to deliberate, complex and coordinated when they start dancing together

I haven’t even thought about this song in ages, but randomly woke up last night with it stuck in my head. My favorite part by far is the red light and buzzer at 5 pm. The Evil Lair is closed until tomorrow at 9 am. Stop your evil lasering until tomorrow and go home to your “loved” ones. This isn’t you, this is just your day job. That’s when he really stops and asks himself what he’s even doing, and why.

It's been 4 years Miike Snow. Where's our damn movie.

all i want in life is to be the guard who turned for the “OooOoOoo”

I was looking for a documentary about Ghenghis Khan when I stumbled on this. Wasn't disappointed.

When I'm feeling down I come back here. I practically giggle when they start their Fred Astaire/Ginger Rogers routine, it's just so fun. The music is good and the video is just adorable, not to mention excellently produced. The artefacting of the film is just *_chef's kiss_* material.

I love how it just hits 5 o'clock and evil activities just stop like.... Guess the minions have a good union.

what if we.... kissed.... in my evil lair.....? Just kidding. Unless...?

Every couple of years I will suddenly awake with a burning need to listen to this song and watch these two lovely men dance, and then I do it obsessively for at least a week.

I like that the woman isn't just neatly disposed of, she's actually her own character

He doesn't overwork his minions. He definitely gets "best boss ever" mugs on his birthday.

The look on the wife's face during dinner is some of the best acting ever. She's trying so hard to make him happy, then realises it is hopeless. Expressing all that without a word is the pinnacle of acting.

Years later, this video still gets me. It's legitimately one of the things I think about if my ex comes to mind. I just think, "Nah, next time, I want to get someone who smiles at me like Mr. Villain looks at Mr. Not-Bond" 🤣

I love this music video so much. The song, the dancing, THE HAND JIGGLE WHEN HE'S COMING DOWN THE STAIRS AT THE VILLAIN, the "stop and 'ooo'", and my personal favorite, watching the minions in the background tap to the beat in the background, some barely moving their hands, some moving their hands AND their heads, it's great.

henchmen#1331: How do you move up in the Organization of Evil? henchman#1492: Take dancing lessons, trust me.

I like that the random minions are 1000% on board with their bosses romance with the enemy. They don't argue at all when he lets him go. Don't even blink. and when he comes back to dance? they're 100% on board with helping the beat and area all individually giddy with the hand taps. They were shipping them.

Actually kind of obsessed with the colors in this. The fact that the villain is clearly represented by the color blue and his wife is represented by reddish orange, but when he’s going to kill the spy the laser he uses is red…. The fact that his wife is represented by warm tones but makes his house feel cold… the fact that the spy wears a sweater in the villain’s color when they’re finally together… anyways

This is one of those songs you see in your recommended and not think twice of it, but then later you actually listen to it after hearing it somewhere, and then it's one of your new favorites

The smile he makes when the spy turns around and comes back to him is so good and makes me smile every time.

Miike Snow: I need you to make a video for Genghis Khan. Ninian Doff: ... Did you say 'Gay James Bond?' Miike Snow: ...YES

this is low-key one of the best songs ive ever heard

I can't get over how insanely well this is made... the silent charisma of this cast is cinema worthy (Edit for spelling)

That part where the villian turns around and smiles so happily after the captive comes walking towards him melts my heart, he looked so happy and that makes me happy

Well done to the person who did the colour grading as it looks exactly the same stock as those famous 60s spy films.

God this video still lives so dearly in my heart. Literally the best villain and victim romance. And he looks so happy with him instead of her. Not saying being straight is bad but he's so much happier now

i haven't watched this music video in such a long time. but his little hand shake (at 2:24 ) still gets me to this day

The sly hand jiggle coming down the stairs needs to be talked about more lol.

At least the bald guy supports good working conditions. Work ends on the clock, no unpaid overtime even when work is ramping up, good security, nobody seems to be overtly unsatisfied with their job, though it is an underground lair it seems to be as well kept as it can be. Solid 8/10, would absolutely work there, maybe needs some PPE for the hot zones but other than that looks like a fulfilling place of work.

I know there's no form And no labels to put on To this thing we keep And dip into when we need And I don't have the right To ask where you go at night But the waves hit my head To think someone's in your bed I get a little bit Genghis Khan I don't want you to get it on With nobody else but me With nobody else but me I get a little bit Genghis Khan Don't want you to get it on With nobody else but me With nobody else but me And the lights, they glow Like I just lost the World War And the scene slips away To the evenness I fake It's a cheat somewhere 'Cause I don't really want you, girl But you can't be free 'Cause I'm selfish, I'm obscene I get a little bit Genghis Khan I don't want you to get it on With nobody else but me With nobody else but me I get a little bit Genghis Khan Don't want you to get it on With nobody else but me With nobody else but me I wanna make up my mind But I don't know myself No I don't know myself I wanna make up my mind But I don't know myself No I don't know myself I wanna make up my mind But I don't know myself No I don't know myself I get a little bit Genghis Khan I don't want you to get it on With nobody else but me With nobody else but me I get a little bit Genghis Khan Don't want you to get it on With nobody else but me With nobody else but me

I recently discovered this video and I am OBSESSED. The best slow burn, enemies to lovers, idiots in love, hero/villain romance ever.

A worthy tribute

Bond: "Do you expect me to talk?" Goldfinger: "No, Mr Bond. I expect you to dance!"

Notice at 2:53 when the villain comes home to the agent, the agent turns to him with a little bounce on his leg - they just can't help but dance in each other's presence...❤ (I watched this video so many times, and I just love all the attention to details!)

I saw this when it came out 6 years ago, and I've rewatched it hundreds of times now (honestly.) I'm not exaggerating when I say this video was life changing for me

Just noticed the technician in the background at 1:29 turning around to lipsync the 'oooh' and now I can't stop watching him.

-So how did you two meet? -It's a complicated story

This song got that positive energy we rarely see these days

This is such a masterpiece. So many tiny details, great acting and corelation to the music. One of the best music videos I've ever watched.

I also love how supportive his minions are of him at finally realizing his feelings. They all keep following him, no issue, even bopping along to the beat.

This is the domestic hero/villain au I've been wanting since forever

having a shaky hand as the bond character starts to respond to the villain's advances, what a good touch. i'll never not be able to come back to this song and enjoy it like its the first time

8 years since this music video was posted and I'm still utterly fascinated by it.

Can we just take a minute to appreciate how all of the henchman were so understanding of their bosses sexual awakening. Henchman goals!

This 4 minutes music video has a better romance story than like 99.9% of movies

Heard this song when playing pes 2017 ever since I listen to it when playing games like FIFA no lie this song touched my heart

The performances in this video, especially by the villain, are SO GOOD. I really really want to see him as an actual movie villain.

bro I will never ever ever be over the way he smiles when he comes back down the stairs I can't believe the most beautiful representation of love in its purest form comes from the music video for a song called genghis khan

The way the villain's face lights up at 2:30 always melts my cold steel heart. He's so happy to be reciprocated. I think that's the most relatable human condition, we all just want to be accepted and loved.

Working for this super villain would be both the weirdest yet best job you could ever have.

Can’t imagine, I found this song just 7 years after release. It gives me hope that there are more songs out there which are amazing like this and I didn’t heard everything yet! Amazing

Those are some fantastic minions. There with the remote, there with the backup singing, ready to shoot down escaping agents, and respectfully jamming out in the background as their boss accepts his love for the agent.

“We’re not so different, you and I” taken to its logical conclusion.

2024 and I’m still here. In fact, I never left

Maybe I'm too baked but, this is genuinely the most beautiful music video I've ever seen.

Damn, he did pretty well on the divorce settlement. He was able to keep the kids, the house and most importantly, his lair

"Hey remember the time i almost killed you?" "Heh, yea, i remember that honey"

The name's Bond. Gaymes Bond.

Mike Snow doesn’t want Mike snow to get it on with nobody else

I love that the original villains character arc/love story became the wife’s villain origin story. Chaotic. Poetic. *chefs kiss*

What a song. What a concept. What choreography. Everyone involved in this is a god damn legend.

My best friend recently passed away and we would always love watching this MV… thank you for the great memories

Arguably the best music video in the history of the human race.

I love that intense happiness the bald guy portrays as he turns to find the other doing the shaky hand dance

Ok so when is Miike going to release part two so that we can watch the epic dance-off between the three of them? I would literally pay to see that. This music video has the appeal of a movie in 4 minutes time

My friend just passed away and we would always listen to this together 😞😭🙏🏽I will always remember her when I hear this RIP Christy

This video is seriously perfect. Its subversive, its acceptive, its affirmative and its welcoming. I love this so deeply, this video seriously gave me a new perspective on so many things.

2:34 LOVE how supportive his employees are. I bet there was a betting pool for this. I bet ALL of them went to their wedding.

The Song: a story of obsession, jealousy, and resentment about a dysfunctional open relationship. The Music Video: just the most adorable romantic fanfiction about Blofeld and Bond you have ever seen.

The video is so damn charismatic. I would never have liked this song without it.

Whoever did the music video deserves an Oscar, so good

Four years later and I'm still waiting for a sequel.

I'm completely impressed with the production value of this video.

One of the best music video ever made! Great song, great interpreters, great coreography, great costumes... I could go on! AMAZING all over

The guard going "OOOH" 🎶 gets me everytime 💀

Oh to be an evil supervillain homoerotically threatening my hero crush

The villain has his shirt unbuttoned when he's at the table with the hero at the end. He's more comfortable, nice touch!

This is honestly one of the best music videos of recent times. it's incredible.

The UKposts recommendation gods have presented me this jam. NOW. I. MUST. DANCE. BECAUSE. I. GET. A. LITTLE. BIT. GENGHIS. KHAN!

Interesting note, the villains dance immediately becomes far less erratic when the spy joins him. Love that little bit of detail

Cam we talk about his lawyers being so good he got the house and the kids?

I love this video because even if you are evil you will have your happy ending. Everything is possible

This is seriously one of those few songs and music videos that're just timeless.

"Bond. Lasting romantic mutual respect-based bond."

That must have been one hell of a custody battle

Who is still listen to this 2024 and playing pes2017😢

A super underrated music video and 8 years later it’s still a banger

I can just imagine “Kids, this is your new dad. Don’t ask how we met, it’s a long story.”

1:29 THE SCIENTIST SITTING IN THE BACK GOES FOR THE "OOOOW" !!! I just noticed.. and Im only watching this for like the 245th time

if this could have been nominated for an oscar it would have won all of them

This song is still a vibe almost 8 years later 💗 and making villains seem hotter since 2015
