EXCLUSIVE PORTUGAL. THE MAN VIDEO!



Officially A Yuppie and Atlantic Records are proud to present a very special, never-before-seen performance of Portugal. The Man unplugged. Take a look at the band in action performing "Senseless."

We have been with the band for most of CMJ this week and will be covering their gig tonight at Terminal 5, tickets are still - surprisingly available, get them while you can!

Considering the cost and availability of relatively good production equipment as well as the popularity of portugal the man, this video was pretty bad. Ptm were great, just wish it was filmed half way decent. Not sure why atlantic records would be period to present this. There are better people out there doing moderate work for free, myself included.

He's lucky he's anonymous. With an attitude like that he'd be lucky to EVER get a job in the industry.

He was probably expecting a high end music video. Sometimes the dirty is better than the clean.

Love Portugal. The Man. Going to see them Tomorrow in Boston @ the Paradise... They should be putting out better videos for their amazing songs. I wish they would make their videos like they do their Album Art.

Dude lay off looks like they had their friend record it while they went for a walk down the street. Though considering the cost and availability of decent computer equipment I'm not suprised that people like you leave dumbass comments like that..

This band is amazing, between this and the live review in the other post, they can never do any wrong. I hope they come back to Cali soon.

The first guy is kind of correct. Compared to all of their other acoustic videos this one was without the full band, and in lesser quality. I think they should have at least had better quality. All around though it's an awesome song and they're an awesome band. No disrespect, just constructive criticism.

Just another attempt of A Take Away Show gone wrong

All of a sudden everyone is an Ebert? Commenting on the video's style.... Who cares, its pretty unique and cool and very daring if you ask me.

So happy to see this! These kinds of videos were a real treat in the early days of the band, and this album really lends itself to this style. 1 more?

This is as pure as you could possibly get.... an under production... straight from instrument to sound wave to microphone with little in between. For those who don't respect some sort of alternate view of recording, just go listen to the album recording and stop expecting more than what you probably didn't pay for.
