  • i love my boyfriend hes so beautiful :(

  • I like early KOL but now with the split or whatever hiatus, they are just ridiculous redneck "ROCKSTARS". They don't know jack shit about being musicians now. But they used to. Now it's all gimmick. Caleb should grow his hair long again.

  • hahaha wa a pile of shit:L .. nd Caleb looked like a serial killer when he had his hair long:L

    

  • WHICKER CHAIR

  • Hey, you know it ain’t coincidental that you’re lost in place

    It’s drippin’ off your face, and you’re losin’ your precious mind

  • man im getting emotional!!! fucking love you KOL!!! keep doing what you're doing!!! <3

  • lots ofpeople were upset when zeppelin 3 came out.now its a classic. sometimes we have to give things time...

  • probably the best kol song, one love

  • im not gonna lie i do miss their older music...but i still love them to death. theres no reason for a fan to turn on them, i mean you can ALWAYS still listen to their older music. if you turn on them you were never a real fan to begin with

  • youtube Fall if you want to see an unreleased KOL b side! its on youtube

  • what a band...the b sides are better than most other bands albums...they should release them all like the killers did on sawdust

  • @pierremcpoop since ur into b sides, you should youtube a song called Fall, most people seemed not to have heard it but it is amazing

  • Why have I not heard this song until now???

  • This is actually the first song Caleb ever wrote on the guitar. Fucking magic.

  • When I get old I will buy a little white wicker, sit on my front porch, and tell my grand kids how awesome KOL was back in my day.

  • @MrCaptainAmerica1 no you will buy an extra set of their albums and your grandkids will listen to it and and know how awesome they are

  • awesome song. can't believe it's a b-side

  • Comment removed

  • clearly all you guys are fans of great music. come check our band out

    

  • does any one have the tabs to the solo...i cant find it

  • @nickb102661 ultimatetabs?

  • kings of leon suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuccccccccckkkkk­kkkkkkksssssssss holy shittt

  • @rob0220 and what do u listen to?

  • @rob0220 nuhin compaired to your ma, like a dyson. cheaper tho :)

  • Caleb started writing his song when he was sitting watching Jared in a white wicker chair then he turned it into a song about their dad.

  • 4 people lost their mind.

  • ...From someone who's known and followed the Kings since the old days in Tennessee... before they opened for the Strokes, before they'd hit the big time, before they'd been to the UK and got their fashionable haircuts, all I can say to people who hate on their newer stuff is a big STFU. The best bands grow and evolve, and they'll continue to do that whether you like it or not, so if you don't wanna be on the train anymore, kindly step the fuck off. Big ups Caleb and Travis, from Tennessee.

  • @bbalanky  they are a good band but their new album is shit. simple as that really

  • The fans turning on them are just fucking hipsters being bitches. (I don't mind normal Hipsters) They are just mad because KoL is not their dirty little secret anymore. Grow up, you're not special.

  • K I'm 15. fuck this I'm ashamed to be a part of this fucked up generation of music. assholes everywhere are listening to this bullshit excuse for music nowadays, Well, at least people like me can lay back and listen to some amazing KoL, Zeppelin, Beatles, etc. and think of the better days. by the way i still think KoL's new album is beast. Thumbs up everybody who jams to the good ol' stuff

  • @b0bbyj4zz

    Finally some one else who can't give 2 shits about pop! im 16 and all my mates love all that Justin beiber crap!

    thank you for showing that you too have a good taste in music even though most people our age don't know what really music sounds like!

  • the Supposed '' Original Kol Fans '' Are just Pissed Off That Their personnal Band Is Getting The Notice they Deserve . So What if More and More People Are Liking Them Doesnt That Mean their Getting Better ?

    iv Liked Them From The Start And yeah i miss Their Country Southern Rock But Still Their New Take on Things is Payin off .

    Stop Tryin To Be Cool By sayin That Jus Because Everyone Else Likes Them Your Not Going to Anymore And you Say This because your a ''True Fan'' , Fools .

  • @JackFanWAT true thtas selfish people for you, if you was a true fan you want them to be a s big possible (wouldnt you) ? fukin dicks . kol rock

  • @JackFanWAT COMPLETELY AGREE! YOU TOOK THE WORDS OUT OF MY MOUTH!

  • 0:00 ........ replay button!!!!

  • first proper song they ever wrote i believe.

  • @ohdoshutit yep caleb was at someones house he was playing chords ran home rote em down and rote the song about jared sitting in a wicker chair stoned out of his mind

  • the lead guitar is very similar to 'something in the way she moves' by the beatles

  • dare i say beatles like? yes this is a great song. and like many i jumped on the kings of leon bandwagon after the latest 2 albums but listening to their early stuff gives me a new appreciation of what a great band they are.

  • @JusTburN88 yes.. they seem to suck up like a sponge whatever mood/inspiration they run into.these changes alienate previous fans/ i preffered this.. it worked the best for them.

  • KOL r awesome!

  • relaxing

  • Why is Only By the Night mainstream? It isn't! The bassline is extremely beautiful, the only bass I hear in the most mainstream things is BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM. I know these kind of mainstream fans and next year they'll like some teenstar again. In Holland it was Tokio Hotel, the Jonas Brothers, Lady Gaga, now everybody loves Justin Bieber but they'll forget them again. And everybody will forget about KOL.

    But I won't.

  • @NirgendwoProductions doubt anybody who listens to early kol,listen to lady gaga or justin whoever he is

  • That's what I said, mainstream will find its way back again, I see it at my school all the time. Kings of Leon is already very '2009' there, the only ones who bought an album of them bought 'Only by the Night' because those are the only songs they know.

    I guess that I'm one of the only Dutch people who looked for older KOL to get a better opinion about them.

  • the only person that can make music mainstream is you, if you don't want it to be mainstream don't listen to it, its not everyone elses fault that over a million people like the same thing

  • @krevolt09 - thats just bull. so what you saying no1 listened to the 1st three albums? coz they werent mainstream.

  • put it this way id rather listen to kings of leon onthe radio than have aload of untalented corporate driven "musicians" on it, besides the beatles had theyr fair share of hits and u dont hear people saying theyr sell outs,real musicians make music , its not kol` fault the world realised how talented they are

  • This Song is Proof that KOL knows who I am> Keep Rockin Tennessee!

  • Haha I fucking love when people try and tell you what lyrics were meant to mean,so unless you now jared in the flesh keep your bullshit storys to yourself,plus change in their sound is nothing to do with musical progress as the band have openly stated it was to try and make a bigger impact in the states which has allways eluded them!!!

  • yeah fuck off. as mainstream as one may think only by the night is because it was popular, ive never heard another band do something like that thats actually on the radio. so the haters can fuck themselves. long live the KINGS OF LEON!

  • this song makes me sad for some reason.. (:

  • I'll admit their latest album was very surprising and not the best but at least their going Grunge on the new one!

  • @plinkification what are you smoking? it has been widely stated that the new album is gonna have a super mellow and chill surf vibe to it.

    definately not grunge, get your facts straight if you are gonna post supposed information stupid

  • Comment removed

  • @gaabbiiee19 GSS does indeed have their facts straight. KOL *planned* on making their new album darker and heavier but when they were writing and recording they realized it just wasn't going to work out that way.

  • niicee!

  • Why is this song so perfect?

  • Comment removed

  • nut

  • gosh these guys are amazing with whatever they come up with

  • I'm losing my mind...

  • I understand the comments i read about fans turning on them. I love everything from the kings. Is it because i got wide range of music i like or is it because i love listening to unique music? I don't know, but really this discussing isn't worth it. Enjoy whatever music you like, it shouldn't be a problem from which band it comes from.

  • To write so beautifully when barely comprehensive aka high, that just adds to the esteem and prestige of KOL.

  • i think most of the people who have actually taken the time to search out this song can seriously appreciate kings's whole back catolougue, i love these old tunes. oh wait, i love everything kings have ever done. absolutely class

  • regardless of stupid online debates..this song just brings up your past...so what if they say your a sell out..i loved yous since spiral staircasse..ail i wanna say really is thank you for writing this song il always be a fan..really leaves its mark on you as a person..

  • missleli23 you are awesome, i was litteraly thinking the same thing!!!!

  • catchy tunnnnnnne

  • they were really stoned when Caleb wrote tis song.

  • There good any way old new wut's the diff they stilll rock!

  • Is this about their dad?

    Love listening to this at my desk at work, although have to be careful not to sing along!

  • Nah i'm guessing by the lyrics its about some chick being a whore lol

  • @bexaphonic no it started off by them being high, and he started singing about jared being high and thier mother not even noticing.....but then he added more lyrics and it became a song about the addictions that ppl go thru and how it affects the ones around them:)

  • i love listening to this on my to school...walking with the breeze.....:)

  • @missleli23 you read my mind

  • good stuff , this song is soft and still better than OBTN.

  • has anyone ever heard the song "Andrea" that was supposed to be on this EP?

  • @minazahazazugemo

    Nobody is talking about that. Eat a penis.

  • for the people with negativity on this page

    YOUR LOSING YOUR MIND!!!!!!

  • @anarchyintheuk12 why dont u fuck off u ginger smelly bit of cunt! ur fucking boring

  • aww baby, dont cry about it

  • Wow I can't believe some of their fans are turning on them. Don't you people understand that bands have to change with the times?? Kings of Leon were AMAZING when they came out with their first album, and they have remained the same AMAZING band ever since! If they stayed the way they sounded back then, they fer sure would have lost a lot of fans because every album would have sounded the same. They've changed their sound a little, but only to keep up with the progression of music!

  • No offense, but the whole "progression of music" defense doesn't fly. A band doesn't have to go mainstream in order to progress. Aha Shake Heartbreak is a progression from Youth and Young Manhood, but it doesn't sound watered down in order to appeal to the masses.

    Their sound changed with every album, but Only By the Night is the only album that seems watered down.

  • bands shouldn't 'keep up' with music, they should do what they do best or do something original. only by the night is neither

  • @zdaels welll said!!! 

  • @zdaels amen brother, KOL 4 life bitches

  • @zdaels id never turn on them..iv a vid explaining my opinion of them..respect to their versatility..im so chuffed they didnt put this on their first album..makes it tht much more of a gem of a song..this is possibly my favourite song of all time..a toss between this an the coral- dreaming of you...love it KOL rock on!

  • @zdaels nah they def havent remained the SAME AMAZING BAND... i mean sure they r great but come on kid quit smokin stuff u shouldn't be

  • i wouldnt go see them now, and i've seen them 4 times!! each show getting more and more laboured and character-less

    i cant stand the way he "sings" these days!

  • sublime

  • @redneck7278  they do now, this is sweet

  • fuck you. i want to remove your head. kol fucking rock. and who cares if only by the night is too mainstream, its still a really good album, it was almost impossible to top the first 3 albums and i think they pulled off a really good job on it. so fuck you

  • @burgues92 well said.... now if these ppl actually had ne taste in music they would take music for what it is... and meant for... \kings of leon will always be my favourites!!!

  • @burgues92 finally someone understands i agree with you i love all their albums and i think only by the night kicks just as much ass as the other pervious albums, KOL rock

  • Comment removed

  • In reference to Only By The Night being mainstream.,...YES, it is a more commercial album, but that doesn't at all discredit it's value.

  • I have to say, though, I am sick & tired of going to KOL shows to see these 'fans', and I use the term loosely, who only 'rock out' to 'Sex on Fire' & 'Use Somebody'......SERIOUSLY annoying. They have never even heard any bit of the first 3 albums. If you are truly a fan & appreciate their body of work, you know (at least) staples like Taper Jean Girl, Fans, Milk, etc.... WHY CAN'T RADIO (& 'FANS') EMBRACE THEIR EARLIER WORK????

  • @mariastef I couldn't agree with you more! Very well put!

  • @mariastef  well said!! last time i seen them in 2009 people were having full blown convos during classics like milk and trani. completly ruined the gig.

  • @mariastef .......Exactly......I'm tired of the Justin Beiber Generation jumping on whatever they think EVERYBODY ELSE likes....bunch of fucking SHEEPLE....Yet...as you said...they know one or two songs......truly sad and ridiculous.

  • a would ye ever stop cryin.. ye dont have to have KOL tatooed on ur chest to go to a concert da fuck..

  • @burgues92 agreed. obtn is an amazing album great melodies catchy hooks and unbeatable lyrics. in my opinion the first 2 are my favorite because i like that genre more but i'm not gonna turn my back on my favorite band

  • i've seen kings 6 times now, just gets better every time.

  • duno whats goin on here..but this is defo em all time fav song from them..this then happy alone then milk..an ye we get annoyed as true kingers fans with the sex on fire release but fuck it gotta love em..im glad i loved em from day 1..keep it up caleb.."ohh ur such a slut sometimeeeeeeee"

  • *-*

  • aaw

  • i love this song, and the solo is amazing

  • I really really need to buy this one, love it. x

  • This song is really THE song of this vacation for me.. Man.. diden't go to sleep earlier then 2 in the morning.. most nights 6 in the morning.. and when i was riding home, drunk on my bike.. i'd always listen this song first on my mp3-player

  • if this song is about his dad then why does it say in a part of the song something about one night stands and " you're such a slut sometimes"? at least i think that's what it says...

  • Its written about his brother Jared

  • oh now it makes sense haha thanks

  • haha :)

  • the first line is, not the entire song..

  • only the first line is about his brother after that it is about his father

  • Yeah it does say that, how confusing. (:

  • yeah good point.

  • This is a beaut! Youth and young manhood is up there, but if i had to pick one album to listen to for the rest of my life it would be 'Aha shake Heartbreak' such a good album x

  • they saed in an interview that they were not goin back 2 the sound of their older albums .... but its all about progression n they r doin that. heard in an interview they already had another album recorded since obtn .. hope 2 hear it soon ..cant wait xx

  • love this song..reminds me of good late nites!

  • sex on fire is good

  • Totally agree with you aligcali

  • matured? more like immatured! first two albums are incredible, third is prety damn good too, fourth is commercial sounding,catchy in a bad way. i hope their next album is as raw as Youth and young manhood.

  • i support you 100% i think the last album just made a lot of posers and is so comercial.. but kings of leon said that they are going to bring good songs like they used to do

  • What the hell are you on mate, so what if its commercial, a band has to evolve and pack big venues if they want it bad enough. Every album is class

  • im kinda split between both ur opinions. iv gotta say the first 3 albums were freaking kickass in comparison to only by the night. but i dont think they sold out. and i really like only by the night. its a stand alone classic album, just doesnt compare to the godlyness of youth and young manhood, aha shake heart break and becasue of the times.

  • love this song !

  • favorite favorite song...

  • there older stuff is 10 times better than this new album

  • can you get this on iTunes..!!??

  • Comment removed

  • Hey, you know it aint coincidental that youre lost in place

    Its drippin off your face, and youre losin your precious mind

  • man, the kings of leon have a song for every single emotion/feeling i have ever felt in my life. i love them more then air ♡

  • class song...all their b-sides are..they should really just put them on the record as an official track!

  • this is not a b-side.

    it's just a song from the Holly Roller Novocaine EP.

  • Why was this not on YAYM? Its one of my fave KoL songs, especially live, its brilliant

  • bands change. all their music is pretty good, just because something is popular doesn't mean you should start disliking it, that's a horrible attitude to music.

  • Its got nothing to do with popularity my friend . Im quite partial to hits of today and Im still an avid beatle fan . I just think that replacing witty lyrics with the whoa whoa sing along chorus is a sad departure from the stellar work from the early albums . Still and all its still better than basshunter or do you like him too ?

  • Oh and I just noticed you're an auzzie that explains the self righteousness and your probably a huge bass hunter fan

  • All their music is good. Of couse they have great songs as well as some not so good songs. You're a Beatles fan so you know how awful twist and shout is compared to something like day in the life. I want you is one of their new songs and that song stands among some of their greatest songs for sure. All of you guys' rants are getting super played out.

  • i can name about 30 kings of leon songs i like more than i want you, there greatest music is definetly thier oldest.

  • i dont agree,i think they've matured alot. and so has thier sound. its a good thing.

  • Comment removed

  • I Really Like Dis..!!!

    I'm wat ye fans from the start call a new fan (i think so anyway) and from all of their songs i've heard I Much perfer their old stuff..???!!!!Does any1 else agree..??

    Does

  • breezy n fresh

  • nice =] n smile it dont cost aneything =]..... this song makes me smile -.-

  • my last comment i meant to say either "same four guys" or "three brothers and cousin" makin the music....etc .

    some fan huh? i was so eager to put my point accross that i wasn't fully paying attention

  • . i love the all the albums cos it's the same four awesome brothers makin the music, yeh people are getting annoyed at new fans comin in but any old fans should want kol to be successful as poss cos they diserve it after years of work. i have been a fan since first album. yes i do get a bit annoyed when people hear a song off only by the night and call themself a true fan.dont have to have loved them from begining just little bit more than one song x go team followill!!!

  • i agree =]

  • agreed.

    imma new fan and i like

    the fact that theres someone out

    there whose not gonna give me

    shit for it. lol

  • exacctly thatt ^^^... :)

  • i love this so so so much!!! KOL should go back to this kinda stuff!!!

  • fucking A

  • such a fucking great song! x

  • is it just me or have the kings just turned into media whores , they where so much better back when they where recording this sorta stuff , i can stand theyre new album at all and everytime i say that somebody says well its the first album theyve recorded that they have it the way they want it , but like in all honesty the 3 other albums where golddust , the next album is supposed to be goin back to the good stuff and is meant to be out next yearish

    KoL<3

  • lol you think your the only one

  • i dont think im the only one lol

  • the next album is supposed to be goin back to the good stuff and is meant to be out next yearish

    i dont think that is even possible :( ther a band who had three albums then broke up to me now
