CHRIS JONES through the eyes of

[raveemaster]

I saw these guys at Latitude, and I hadn't listened to them before but they put on a really great live show if they have a crowd willing to get into it! They played an arena where everybody was really chill and not up their own arse, and this song is actually really energetic live and so much fun. So stop your whining, they are a great live band!

[TheJediGorilla]

like if you got here because of the RHCP tour

[cestness]

must..dance..

[emuk233]

@Anestheticfun dude:

1) read the blurb

2) listen to the music

I really love how they mix a lot of Hebrew in their songs! It sounds sooooo good, represent!

[NattiRosee]

[mamelucobaby]

Musica africana?? ¬¬ Pordios ! No saben ni como es la musica africana !

En fin.. Esta cancion es una de las mejores que e escuchado ♥__♥

[chepooka85]

@mamelucobaby

No es música africana, es música con influencias de música africana y es muy claro. Por dios! No sabes ni cómo ser pretencioso.

[mamelucobaby]

@chepooka85 Creeo que no entendiste lo que puse.. Pero bueno...

[TheGolez]

this is the length the original song should have been

[sayheytojoshk]

epic vacation

[ronzy566]

@Skinhead1960s At first I thought it was Africanns which a language native to Africa, but then I listened to some toned down live performances and it is in fact Hebrew

[Clam2007]

9 personnes ne parlent pas français.

[PKTrekGirl]

So my cousin just told me that one of the guys in this band is our cousin. I had no idea, but I'm kind of jazzed, because they sound pretty good!

[FrostieDragon]

@Skinhead1960s de rien c:

[bonbadil]

voilà du bon! laisse le sourire te monter jusqu'aux oreilles et réjouis toi de ce qui va t'arriver....

[daddycool749]

9 personnes sont dépressives visiblement ... 

[emiemiriri]

Cest bon

[youplaba]

fresh song

[Buster2102]

Lil ecoute c tt bon

[TheManolakis]

boring, unimaginative and all together forgettable

[PyroBlastFu]

@TheManolakis You have no taste in music, go and fester in your rat cage you ignorant slut.

[TH3USUALSUSPECT]

does anyone have any recommendations of other tracks like this with a summer-ish feeling to it?

[PyroBlastFu]

@TH3USUALSUSPECT Try ambling alp and madder red, nadine. in terms of bands try yeasayer's

[TH3USUALSUSPECT]

@PyroBlastFu

Thanks i'll try those

[kanggene]

Sounds like Vampire Weekend and Paul Simon's Graceland.

[GabyoTV]

Putain ce que j'aime... tant au niveau de la musique que des images...

[ONKAfromBRNO]

Very nice melody :)

[fergbond]

EPIC.

[TheMaRaSoHSniper]

i don't imagine this as african music, i imagine african music as rap

[boffacheerios]

@TheMaRaSoHSniper well it isn't.....

[Lawrendyy]

@TheMaRaSoHSniper This rythm is african and especially from central africa, and rap is not all that we can do : search for makossa, soukous, congolese rumba, zoblazo, mbalax, m'bour, highlife, afrobeat and others ! Go and search for this group on internet, and you'll see their inspiration in afican music, they even said it in documentary about afropop, cause they're the only occidental group inspired by and playing afican rythms ! Hope I've helped you !

[Lawrendyy]

@TheMaRaSoHSniper they're not the only group inspired, i wanted to say ! sorry !

[dlacala09]

@Skinhead1960s

[dlacala09]

@Skinhead1960s hebrew.

[indiagirl23]

Cette chanson est absolument fabuleuse =D

[SponsoredbyDuffBeer]

I MISS SUMMER

[spacejunk5]

the video clip sucks big time ( dressing some older guys with neon color shirts and have them spray soda on each other or throwing some girls in a pool with lizards doesn't give the clip a tropical feel)

[boffacheerios]

@spacejunk5 And it says where that it's intended to have "tropical feel" ? it's not tropical music, it's most certainly inspired from african soukous guitar which is basically party music over there, as it should be here in favor of this hip hop rubbish.

[konohamaker123]

8 ppl accidently pressed the wrong bottun

[FrostieDragon]

@Skinhead1960s Hebrew

[Ms4catsandcounting]

[bloodyshit69]

[bloodyshit69]

@Derax2

[mariussielcken]

Ramin Nazari is een hoertje!

[Splitenz]

I went to the Øya Music Festival here in Oslo, Norway for the first time this year. I was there for LCD Soundsystem and Pavement. But having time to wander around I was attracted by the music comming from the small 'Vika' stage. And this is where I saw and heard Fools Gold (12th of august). Yesterday I got the CD and I'm listening to it now.

[Waffellinoza]

I'm going to go and see them tonight : )

[Niciparisi]

@Waffellinoza Noorderzon? ;) They played lovely. The guy in red trousers dance awesome hihi.

[Waffellinoza]

@Niciparisi haha agreed! : )

[PdishmonkeyJJ]

@yingyang4 the guitar style us called SOUKOUS! I love it :D

[IncognitoAZA]

@yingyang4 you mean like an archeologist?

[IncognitoAZA]

@yingyang4 you mean like an archeologist?

[RufaroDiaries]

@yingyang4 yeah, it does...they actually made an effort to study various forms of african music and incorporate it into their music :o)

[4Quasmusic]

excellent 10/10

[yinongivatada]

@killerhotdogtoes the hebrew name for komodo dragon means power!

how awsome is that?

[OhSnapItsJimbo]

5 people missed the like button because this song is fucking AWESOME.

[shwandigglen]

HAWAIIAN PARKOUR - MY CHANNEL

[yinongivatada]

am I the only one that noticed it is in עברית??!!

[ManuChao4live]

@yinongivatada no =)

[thewolfster84]

This to thek54 first learn about the history of music. This song is good because it capture an old form of African music but wt makes it better is a group of white guys composed it. It use to b a time when that would never happen but now we live in a world that shows we can grow and learn from each other to create anything even music. So before u call something gay stop and look into the music.

[TheK54]

@thewolfster84

I thought that music is something to listen to not look at. (still this music is GAY)

[thewolfster84]

@TheK54 lol wow your a funny guy this song is gay but yet you uploaded a video of you signing about fat cookies and that's not GAY. now i understand why they say don't try to make a point with those with no intelligence thanks for proving us right THEK54

[ManuChao4live]

@TheK54 fuck you man !

if it doesnt fit your taste dont listen to it and even though if it would be gay music would that be a fucking problem for you you ignorant moron ?

[TheK54]

@ManuChao4live

This is my own opinion.

[Kris10nHaley]

that dog is so cute!

[keianhho]

amazing XDDD

[thewolfster84]

this is what you call beautiful music

[TheK54]

@thewolfster84

This is what you call GAY music

[Kris10nHaley]

@TheK54 if this is "GAY" music then please tell me what STRAIGHT music is to you. learn some respect.

[TheK54]

@Kris10nHaley

Birthday music is STRAIGHT music

[metnickb]
