Peter Bjorn and John - Reason To Be Reasonable (Official Video), Pt. 5

Say hello to the video for our new song "Reason To Be Reasonable," directed by Henry Moore Selder! Number 5 to "Rusty nail"s number 6? Where does this story really lead? So apparently Peter is some sort of scout leader rocking his guitar after showing some scouting kids the way round a painted mountain range to a camping-tent. A guy is climbing a cliff in this great indoors, and there are orienteers of which Bjorn seems to be one. There are also explosions!! And what's up with John living in a box? Lots of questions, the answers are dim, but the energy is unmistakable. "Reason to be Reasonable" is a classic relationship parable with the easily identifiable PB&J sway: "I was aiming for a classic power-pop song with an updated PB&J twist. It's about when you've been in a relationship for a really long time, and you feel like it's worth it", says Peter Morén. That can be applied to the band, too—a really long thing that keeps on giving." 🎶Listen to the single here: https://ingrid.lnk.to/ReasonToBeReasonable LYRICS In the evening, lost in conversation without deliberation We're like windmills, never learned the lesson of this passive aggression We have a lot of common ground now But I'm still addicted to your know-how You have no reason to be reasonable I have no reason to be terrible And though it's getting kind of comical We're gonna get it back babe We're gonna make it happen! In the morning when I don't wanna wake up and you don't wanna make up It begins to dawn on me, if we fuck it up completely, I still recall it fondly Lost on the highway route to nowhere But let’s enjoy it 'til we get there! You have no reason to be reasonable I have no reason to be terrible And though it's getting kind of comical We're gonna get it back babe We're gonna make it happen! Ooo, they say you don't choose, you just know Ooo, I always knew, hate to say I told you so Sometimes I hate to love you though but I love you so When we're older, stare into the fire, our limbs worn out and tired I don't wanna fight you baby, we'll always stay connected, no point trying to reject it Maybe by then we both have found out That this is it! It's for life! You have no reason to be reasonable I have no reason to be terrible And though it's getting kind of comical We're gonna get it back babe We're gonna make it happen! You have no reason to be reasonable I have no reason to be terrible And though it's getting kind of comical We're gonna get it back babe We're gonna make it happen! We're gonna get it back babe We're gonna make it happen!
