Death Cab For Cutie - No Sunlight (Acoustic)

[theclawof1989]

these guys are talented and they crack me up sometimes being able to give a show in the back of a cab and it sound that great means they are very talented

[countcoco]

Don't wanna see the sunlight only DCFC!

[notarupert]

i'd pay double fare for that experience

[colourmeryan]

Halfway through the cameraman puts the camera out the window as if to say, "Are you seeing the sun out here?".

[fractuss]

Thx for uploading this, I couldn't figure out how to filch it from black cab...

[fractuss]

Very nice version.

[gingerofwar97]

Oh...my god I think I like the acoustic version better than the original that was spectacular UHH death cab man you rock my world!

[ScurrrvyMatt]

"Ahhhhh, victory..."

[seamoose213]

I want to contract them for a road trip, I'll leave the radio off, and instruct them to just keep playing until I get tired of it, which I won't.

[hippiegirlsmile]

@seamoose213 rofl

[BTCSUK]

Most cabbies look at me in disgust when I bring my guitar in a black cab....

[dkang57]

BEST CAR RADIO EVER!

[johnselmerdix]

Shepherds Bush, my homies. Shepherds Bush.

[Theweelittleman]

I wish every day I got in the car I could just look in the back and see them rocking out.

Also, Ben's laugh at the end was awesome. Haha.

[andykins118118]

death cab and the shins are the best bands

[ortizd93]

"This is the Back Clab sessions with Death Cab for Cutie."

[hennytehhen123]

"Victory"

Yes.. You have won life, Chris. I love you.

[ThatMakeTheWorldStop]

i want to look at them, not the fucking surroundings. <.<

[hypolittleskittle07]

Even when restricted in the back of a taxi, Ben still can't sit still when making music!

Top sesh, I would love if I was a cabbie and they just wacked out a song in the back.

Props.

[mattytee21sammy]

They should have sung the song at night. Make the name true silly guys! Haha!! Love Death Cab!

[catsaretheshit]

I'm glad there's still a band out there that makes Music.

[actressinny]

@catsaretheshit Mumford & Sons are pretty good too ;)

[joshzirkle]

If you have time, please listen to my poem I wrote about Death Cab! It's spoken in my video entitled "Lyricist, Musician." Thank you! <3

[Tanlin2021]

looked pretty sunny out to me...

*trollface*

[ChablesMan]

Black Cab for Cutie

[mds1911]

These guys are amazing. They harmonize so well. Totally sounds like a studio recording when we know for certain it is not. Very refreshing to hear true musicians, not blatantly untalented rappers.

[CodesAndKeys]

I'm that guy in the bus!

[umacs4]

Someone please tab this!!! and if you find a good tab for this version pleasee tell me!!

[guyfughgtuik]

Ahh the irony

[TheHandsomeFalcon]

Shepherds Bush all up in this shit

[Bmgwak12]

I just love the vocal harmonization. Walla's pitch pulls your ear away from Gibbard's so harmonically.

[doctornasty1]

chris jeffries and the plastic fantastic lover RETARDED COWBOYS MUSIC VIDEO

is way cooler.

[doctornasty1]

....

[madithegirldrummer]

i did a drum cover of this.

check it out.

[sweetkandy93]

His voice is amazing!

[Amulius]

'Vic'try.'

Couldn't have said it better myself, Chris

[mikeiseendonut]

think of how sick it would be, just walking down a street, and then seeing a black cab drive by with Ben Gibbard and Nick Harmer in the back playing music ._.

[mikeiseendonut]

@mikeiseendonut and chris walla* excuse me :)

[willsworthy]

this reminds me of myself-I always go out to the car and play so no one can here me. LOL It can be a pain sometimes,depending on what car i am in.But i love doing it.I can scream at the top of my lungs,and no one hears me-cool.

[Coolercare79]

this is freaking awsome

[mrstylerfunair]

i think that is really fucking cool that they are riding and playing.. shows their passion for music alot.. its awesome

[benitodunn]

He's on.

[Brian12327]

ben gibbard was flat.

[Dewald101]

wow that was absolutely amazing

[AtomicFuse1]

this is the back clab sessions with death cab for cutie

[JohnnyBgoode44]

@AtomicFuse1 i ehard it too, i just thought it was me.

[sidexkick]

If I walked past a car and DCFC was in the back seat playing music I would climb in through the window and make sweet love to them.

[watashiwanachodes]

@sidexkick please dont

you'll ruin the session =S

[neckfacesupra]

just because you don't like their newer or older stuff doesn't make it worse. it's all amazing.

[donutb37]

I could listen to this forever.

[KELSCENE]

I love Black Cab Sessions. This one and Holly Miranda, love.

[sircraigery]

Ben is the John Denver, & Chris is the Maury Muehleisen of Indie.

[Frozenchao]

"This is the 'Back Clab' sessions with Death Cab for Cutie"

He says that in the beginning, listen for it.

[sithman123]

Hey! Click-it or ticket, Ben!

[bix1995]

Audio download link?

Please?

[ChablesMan]

This is pretty badass...

[36drummer09]

Really, this is a really great video with an even greater song .

[isadoracanelli]

i love this music... <3

[jastrat0009]

all of death cab for cuties music is amazing... i was listening before transatlantacism and i have to admit... i bought narrow stairs and hated it for a week... then i listened to it a second time and loved it

[asicslover]

Great tune. Keep up tha good work

[Mickaylaaa15]

i love ben gibbard so so so much!!!

[Swiftlygothedays]

No one was driving the cab. The car was moving because of the awesome power of Gibbard and Walla.

[kittties]

amazing!!!!

[christislove86]

I heart this and Death Cab... genius as always!

[dipasquale123]

and all these years ive been pronouncing it Black Cab.

[polkadots103]

Their harmonies make me smile,

[CascadeSeven61]

Death Cab is one of the best modern bands. This song reminds me of the Beatles...! It's SO good.

[dddebolt]

alpha male, jack hammer,

[joeg19]

For me, Plans is sounds far more commercial than Narrow Stairs, and is definitely over-produced (soz Walla). Definitely between Transatlanticism and We Have the Facts for best album.

Also, I'd love to just squeeze in there between Gibbard and Walla and just slowly slide my hand up Walla's thigh. Yeah baby.

[osubucksfan1985]

anyone know some legit tabs for this? ultimate-guitar's are not correct, i do not believe.

[donutb37]

I wish I could find some. If you do message me please.

[NastyNatey]

Wish Ben and Chris would play in the back of my car..

[Sockhead360]

imagine if they got in a wreak haah like a fender bender nothing serious lmao

[KellieLaura2Square]

At 2:58 it sounds like Ben is laughing at the guy in the bus xD

[hux2000]

jmzr65: It's not coincidence either, given that they deliberately put the band in a black cab because of their name. Coincidence implies happenstance.

The word you're searching for in your, "OMG I'm so much cleverer than you" pants is FITTING.

PS Stop being a twat.

[99Bowser99]

haha thats cool...playing in a car

[jmzr65]

irony? no. not irony. it's called coincidence. stop misusing the word irony.

1. a pretense of ignorance and of willingness to learn from another assumed in order to make the other's false conceptions conspicuous by adroit questioning

2. the use of words to express something other than and especially the opposite of the literal meaning

[Revelations12]

@jmzr65

Those are big words. Your epeen must be huge, because your superior knowledge which I suspect is the product of the usage of an online dictionary is really quite exquisite.

Everyone makes mistakes.

[imusemybow]

haha wow you're a dick :P so the man's not quite right on about the use of Irony, to some people it could seem like an ironic situation mr jmzr65

[passion4drums]

I wish someone would be able to get Tabs for this. I'm dying to learn it

[IL0VEPANCAKES]

I SAW THE GUY! the window on the right at 2:53

[Katastrophiies]

Ben's face when he's imitating the bus guy at the end cracks me up every time. xD

[webcreeper2002]

hehe another gr8 one from the awesome DCFC

[breannemackenzie]

purely amazing :D

[braaaainz]

i love this acoustic version!

[creeper1981]

great band... every album is better than the previous one... always in progress...

[supermatthew10]

yeah really narrow stairs is amazing

[SnwBorder52]

i'd disagree. They still haven't topped transalanticism, and i'd put photo booth over plans, but i guess i just love their old stuff way to much.

Narrow Stairs is phenomenal though!

[redice1024]

do you like Marching bands of manhatten, or Someday you will be loved?

[hux2000]

SnwBorder52: Right on. Transatlanticism is definitely their best album. The Photo Album and Plans are great too. I have to say that I really dislike Narrow Stairs, though. Too samey-sounding and overly commercial for my tastes.

[Avenged72Fold]

@hux2000 Funny you say that: I found Plans to be too commercial and too produced even compared to Transatlanticism.

[SkotNewbower]

@hux2000 question - when did you start listening to them? i swear 99.9% of people who didn't like narrow stairs started listening to them transatlantacism or later.

[Mickaylaaa15]

@SkotNewbower i know what you mean! everyone just knows narrow stairs. i love transatlantacism!

[shakemeshakeme]

I loved narrow stairs, first songs I heared were on that one

had to backtrack alot!

[JShawtyKim]

Awesome :D

[mellowhobo]

suprisingly good sound for being in a car!

[Sabbath104]

its the second coming of Roy Orbison. haha

not dissing either of em.

[mightyukrainian]

amazing

[evilhubert]

i agree 100% even though there are some more bands to mention, for example WILCO, dont you think?

[RunningOvation]

This band is by far the only bad that deserves to play music lately! They have been the best thing ever since the early 2000s, and they are still the best band in the world! Ben Gibbard is simply a genius, and I would be VERY unhappy with any person who disagreed!

[Acutulum]

I agree, they are a very good band, but there are other good bands that deserve to play too!

[deathCABforJEREMY]

@RunningOvation i disagree. they are good, but Animal Collective, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, TV On The Radio, Modest Mouse, MGMT are right up there

[genericname121]

@RunningOvation you need to look up a lot of radiohead. Start with In Rainbows. Give it a full listen through, the go through earlier albums. You won't like it all. I call myself an avid fan and don't like all their work, but there are so many good songs.

I also love DCfC, so you might find something.

[KneeGrow214]

they should make an acoustic song it sounds nice

[txg11]

"Ahhh, victory..."

Haha i love Chris

[caniwritetoyou23]

wow this is awesome, nice video too. should be like the music video ahahah

[classified1986]

this cab should drive me to work everyday and I wold LOVE to work 7 days a week =)

[chilidog1001]

so what exactly happeed to the postal service

[alfie360]

It was only a side project with Ben Gibbard, a one album kind of deal.

[MadmanAcrossTheWater]

not so much irony as it is PUN

[veryfluffypillows]

oh ben gibbard... i wish i took that cab

[higzyguitarist]

those two sound better in the back of a cab than a lot of band sound onstage!

[mrstylerfunair]

@higzyguitarist AGREED

[peeldabanana]

it's kind of unhealthy how much i love ben gibbard.

[iamaseagull]

don't worry, it's kind of unhealthy how much i love chris walla.

[locachicablanca]

I love Ben's glasses.

[thebeatlesguy555]

Man, I wish they would tab what Ben was playing.

[SierraPapaFoxtrot]

There's a thread on the Death Cab forums where they tab all of their songs and the last time I checked one of the guys was in the middle of tabbing it.

[honuecker]

There's an F#Minor chord that I absolutely love....I think Chris is playing it.

[ccatie456]

chris walla and ben gibbard make a perfect duet

[cardboardfactory]

i have to say i love the ending "there was a guy in that bus looking at me like this" *pulls face* XD

[amazinglygeneric]

lol i wonder what kind of face I would make if I saw ben and chris just jamming out in the back of a car

[blaxsk8er]

good stuff

[cutietabz1]

lol "ahhhh victory" i love that part

[peeldabanana]

oh, how i love them.

this video is pretty sweet!

[jaishalattacks]

they should really be wearing their seatbelts....

[plussign17]

Is it ironic, or is it just a coincidence?

[SierraPapaFoxtrot]

Coincidence would be correct as ironic implies that there's a negative side to it.

[plussign17]

I know. I was just being sarcastic and silly. Ha.

[mashumado]

最後に出てくる赤いバスに乗ってて、窓から「お！デスカブじゃん­！」って言いたいなあヾ(´ω｀

[KneeGrow214]

i like the acoustic more than the regular version

[TheFadedSG]

A jammed in jam :D

[mrsjamespotter210]

i think my fav song of theirs but death cab is always a delight :D

[SexPistolSweetie]

Sorry but i think i'm in love. if they are arried they better get UNMARRIED. lol this is a great cover props to DCFC

[cutietabz1]

it isnt a cover its them singing it!

[doodlesxlove]

im in love.

[hossynossy4]

haha 'no sunlight' camera goes out the window and its super sunny lol

[basketcase5295]

show his guitar dammmmit

[RogueDread1983]

It's a Gibson J-45

[basketcase5295]

i meant that i was trying to make out the chords...cuz theyres no accurate tabs for the way he plays it. hence, i wanted to see his guitar and the chords

[RogueDread1983]

A to E to D over and over... granted he throws in some bar chord variations but the basic theory is A to E to D. Hope that helps. Cheers

[basketcase5295]

thanks, ill mess around with that

[chilidog1001]

haha this is soo funny... a jam sesh in the car!!

[PurplestickieDotCom]

haha victory?

[ilikeponie]

I think I may have fallen in love

[bodean55]

This is a great version of a great song.

[m4573r5h4k3]

haha he said "back clab sessions"

[fawkinfreak]

LOL

[ItsBetterWithToast]

it is rather hard to say...

I have rediscoverred why i love them so.
