  • @dav1one WAY better than MGMT. No contest. The guitarist shreds and there is better synergy on the whole.

  • kso now i feel like running around a forest chanting yeasayer lyrics

  • marihuana?

  • That subdued little fist pump at the end really says it all. Champion sound.

  • in the dead of winter while the ice pelts the frozen ground, wailing this winter evening, this song makes me hopeful...love it!

  • I just caught them live at the Laneway Festival in Singapore last night! Never heard of them but was so blown away by their performance I'm going to buy their CDs next week!

    Yeasayers, Foal, Chk Chk Chk and Temper Trap, all amazing bands to catch live! Will blow your minds away!

  • @9804216 was there too! one hell of a muddy day, but definitely worth standing out in the rain for 12 hours for all those great acts :)

  • @9804216

    There's something quite ethnic and v world music about them no? I weren't expecting anything from them neither but somehow, i think it came to me creeping and in a good way. I was sitting on the overly wet grass and just taking it all in.... The rain got so annoying after a while! Sorry, i'm so sore. Agree with u, !!! and Holy fuck made it.

  • @walliamdzi Agreed, the weather that day was awful. I couldn't imagine that it would've rained the entire day! My mobile phone got spoilt thanks to that!

  • Comment removed

  • These guys look so makeshift to me like they all listen to way different music then each other but jam out on this its pretty cool

  • Compared to this version, the album version totally sucks.

  • 'Life is easier when one of us is dead

    Hey

    I will wait a year

    It'll be an accidental fall

    And they won't suspect a thing at all' :)

  • best song ever.

  • their voices are all so unique! i can't get enough of this band. saw them live in september and i could barely move after it was so amazing!

  • youtube should have an automatic filter that deletes the name justin bieber so he's not mentioned on every fucking video on here...and yes, before any dicks comment, i am aware that i just used his name, but i wouldn't be able to make my point if i couldn't

  • Shit, i get so disappointed. Y all the argue, let people listen to whatever they want. I dont like gaga and bieber and all that other things on mtv. I like Yeasayer it's my call. But don't judge other people for crying out loud. Are u gonna arguue and fight like everyone else does on this prejudged planet. Leave the evil out of music, let people listen to whatever they want, enjoy and respect.

  • This is the band God should hire to play before He makes speeches in Heaven. LOL. ;-)

  • 12 people  like the winter

  • @earhearthis wouldn't

    "13 people can't wait for the summer"

    sound better?

  • i wish i could be in a band like this

  • too much sampled music :s i was hoping for something more real on a live performance

  • @Sergio0Oo Yeah like they'd hire people to play sitars and all the other weird instruments that they use ONLY for this song. Samples are fine.

  • Sublime! *-*

  • only cool people like this song

  • this song needs more slap'a'da' BASs

  • lame

  • @HardLuckGambler any reason why besides that fact that you're a cunt?

  • I love this group so much, and they are so amazing live!

  • Totally LOVE LOVE LOVE it.

    I never get enough of their songs, it almost drives me crazy how good they sound live!

  • i wish this song never ended!

  • They were last saturday night in Utrecht, Netherlands, and I really enjoyed their performance, although very short.

  • @NelsonMandeIa saw them in amsterdam the night before that

  • @ANANASJE1985 was there too! awesome gig:)

  • @ANANASJE1985 : thats why they were so tired :D

  • I love to listen to you every day, your sound as varied as both the sound of the instruments and voices for me is relaxing and filling !

  • what about 4:07 when the drums kick in again....it rocks!

    love their harmonies, especially at 4:37 when Anand chimes in again...oh to be in the studio with them then...

  • Comment removed

  • love it

    but the man in the red flat bill is secretly a kid rock fan

    you can tell

    lmfao

  • what a tune!

  • so much energy!

  • what's the name of the guy at 0:23 ??

  • @justmeagain6

    Anand Wilder

  • @michealharan thanx :)

  • @justmeagain6 Anand Wilder

  • Fantastic song...possibly their best. Why do people shout fleet foxes (a group in their infancy) as influences when fleetwood mac clearly comes through more?

  • can't keep calm when i hear this.

    i always start to dance to this song. It feels like music of pure freedom crawls from my ears to my heart and is beeing transmitted directly to impulses in fingers, toes, feet and hands.

    sounds so weird esoteric but feels fucking great!

  • ... gosh ram it !!!... lotta good !!!...

  • holy fckn fck!

  • This is is what happens when The Levellers, Jethro Tull and Fleet Foxes have a baby... very nice!

  • that bassist looks like ed norton incognito

  • eternally classic - 2010 AD

  • go out of my head

  • OMG this group is awesome

  • why couldnt they have put this version on the album? it sounds a million times better and you can actually understand the words hes saying

  • I love the current for getting great musicians and the indie scene out there. Great Music! I love Yeasayer!

  • Incredible, even more so live. One of the best bands around today

  • This is the best thing that has happened on the interwebzzz.. Kinda wish I was there.

  • I just can't get enough of this video.. they are sooo perfect live

  • god this is awesome!!!! it's like peter gabriel, animal collective, and the lion king all in one!!!

  • when did Weird Al start playing bass?

  • I think this live set is the beez cant wait to catch them live, makes me want to start up a band of my own

  • For me, I find this so much more real than the album. This is my favorite song by them and the vocals are just so pure; there's not a sour note. The epitome of yeasayer for me are their live performances.

  • ahhhhhhh i die everytime i hear this song

  • in my opinion this version is much better than the version on their record

  • is this the greatest band on earth?

  • @andresberral one of them

  • Yeasayer=life

  • I love this song so much! It's so beautiful.

  • man, I hate the fact that this drummer is no longer in the band!

  • I need that guitar...and that bass....and those cymbals

  • haha, they're playing tonight at Heineken Open'er Festival in Gdynia,Poland . I'm gonna watch em live ^^

  • Can't wait to hear this live at Lollapalooza!

  • fucking brilliant!

  • Comment removed

  • they got a look all of their own

  • Keen to see them live now.

    SO KEEN.

  • This is so much better than the album version!

  • Amazing song but what about the lyrics.... based on a true story?

  • @Trafsko I hope not :/

  • the bassist always seems to be doing lots of stuff we can't hear ...he probably rocks live though!

  • i'd like to hear a bluegrass band cover this song (but loyal to it's original). i wish you guys would at least hire some shmoe to play the actual instrumentals instead of jammin along to a track though.

  • actually, i just went to a yeasayer concert and there was an overwhelming amount of bros/really drunk people. so maybe popular music in america is catching up?

    that said, some of them were REALLY annoying

  • @iammrchubbsful That may have something to do with the more 'pop' music direction they are taking. I even heard Ambling Alp playing in a shopping center in the UK...

  • Genius  ♥

  • Whoa, that video was amazing! I have my tickets to see them tonight here in Salt Lake City!

  • never heard of them, but they're coming to Sziget and thought i'd look them up. definitely going to see these guys^^

  • impresionante!!!thanks for sharing

  • I wish they went back to playing this kind of music,

  • Im seeing these guys tonite in Tucson, i think they are playing at congress. im fuckin psyched!!!!

  • Wow, even though I cannot afford it right now. I gave money to the Current ,...so much great sh*t! eh? If they had panties on clothesline , I would steal them!

  • Gorgeous!

  • 2:19 that dude plays that guitar like its an extension of his own dick!

  • at first i was going to murder this song but i wound up liking it

  • tolles..!

    i love this band..!

    <3

  • Exactly, this is so much better than the overproduced album version. You can barely hear their voices under all of the instrumentation layers on All Hour Cymbals, which is the best attribute of Yeasayer. Way to sell them fockers!

  • Cuntalicous!

  • Live is almost always better than the record little mistakes and all feel better, most producers screw shit up!!

  • so amazing...... this song still gives me goose bumps...

  • i agree this and tightrope are so much better than the recorded versions.....

  • epic!

  • Does anyone know where I can download the audio to this live session. This song and Tight Rope are so epic. I want to own them.

  • covert this using dirpy . com

  • @KLYRSLFSEBY Do a search on the 893TheCurrents webpage, its there.

  • Does anyone know where I can download the session they did at the current? Just the audio? It's pretty epic!

  • Acabo de verlos en Madrid, y son geniales en directo.

  • I liked Odd Blood, but its videos like this that remind me how superior All Hour Cymbals is. The harmonies were perfect. The percussion was absolutely incredible.

  • just randomly came across this song. this song really strikes something inside of me. perhaps some people should stop listening to all this mainstream bs and try and listen to something with a more unique and beautiful sound.

  • ha me toooooooo!!!

  • muy buenos , la q sacaron la de one esta mucho mejor .............. viva yesayer

    si alguien sabe cuando vienen a mexico avisen por fa

  • chills through my spine

  • I have to agree with this. Luke adds a great vibe to the band they've really lost with the new material. Don't get me wrong, Odd Blood is really good, but AHC is an indie masterpiece as far as I'm concerned.

  • I love Odd Blood but All Hour Cymbals is just ridiculously good.

    To each their own, it's all preference. To me it feels like All Hour Cymbals just has more soul. Odd Blood is dancier but less emotional to me.

    But god damn I love it all. It's just to me, one's great and another's greater, all there is to it.

  • You guys should go re-listen to Odd Blood...

  • @jgk009

    You guys should go re-listen to All Hour Cymbals. Like all amazing new bands, the hype died a bit on the sophomore album.

  • then again.....who the fuck am I

  • @Acousmatic1981

    With the exception of two songs (one and AA) I agree completely. They have some live studio versions of some Odd Blood songs and its a real dissapointment. It's possible they've lost some passion due to too many shows but I think Luke leaving removed an essential component to their unique sound as well.

  • EPIC!

  • epic!

  • Im waiting with them. They'd agree. For sure.

  • is that loop theirs or what? I love this song. power of music. I am delivered from depression. my "summer song" (sigh.......)

  • I suppose comparisons to Fleet Foxes are inevitable. That's nothing but a good thing. They are too good to ever be popular in America, where Wal-Mart is the number one music retailer.
