Part of this reminds me of a Tracy Chapman song. I think I now understand why he keeps getting compared to black female singers, like Ella Fitzgerald.
I've been a fan of Cold War Kids ever since they brought out 'Hang me up to dry'. Glad to see they're breaking through to a bigger crowd. Love this song.
@soludare92 Why not go to class WHILE listening to Cold War Kids? And then listen to them IN classs. At least you'll be counted for attendance. And you can air drum IN class.
@fullmetalfunk I completely would but I currently do not own a portable music playing device and it pains me everyday! but I am working on getting one and I will do as you suggested! I wish I had discovered this band sooner
@soludare92 Haha, yes, get one. Prices on really good ipods have really dropped. Sure they're not fancy touches or whatever but they get the job done. :)
Listened to this song in the law library today (actually the best place to listen to it- breaks up the mediocreness so well) anyway, then I fully got into it... grooving about in my chair with my headphones in. Until the guy next to me tapped me and asked me to turn my music down. hahahahah LOVE THIS SONG!
Youtube is probably the best thing to happen to music in forever. It's absolutely one of the best ways to find out about bands you might never have heard of otherwise. Thx to all the people out there taking the time to post their favorite bands for everyone else to check out! <3!
heard this from One Tree Hill, and im actually glad.. that programme shows me to such great songs. since here in the UK, these kinda songs dont really hit the charts. gotta do your own research. ;)
@MissDizzy118 i'm the exact same! its always the same stuff in the charts here that i'm not too keen on, i'd never know there was such amazing music out there if it werent for the likes of one tree hill! :D
@leocdc7 How were they btw?! I missed it completely, I barely found out about the live streaming Coachella thing an hour ago and my heart broke when I found out I missed them :P
@jessermacasrsly All I can tell you is I've never heard of them, and they rock my ears man!! They totally rock yesterday on Coachella. What a great show and songs... and they were trending topic on Twittter, so now a lot of people will know them ;D
@ParanoidDroid26 myabe so, but if u love them, u will be glad that more people r getting to know the band, where and when should not matter... but thats my thinking tho.
My favorite song on the new album. This is a song about living life to its fullest in every moment.
"From now on, fly as high as I want. From now on, I'll show my weak side...From now on wear my love for you loose...from now on trust my feeling is true, from now on call me royal blue!"
ohhhh feels soooo good! I love these guys. I met them in alaska on a sled dog tourm. they are as kick ass as their music. i'm going to get out and buy this today! hell yeah!!!
Man I did not like this album. They went commercial. It sounded like they were trying to be like Kings of Leon. And I don't call this experimenting. I call it going commercial.
yea ive seen all shows in the SF area too, the fillmore and at the new parish in oakland, cwk's are bitchin' to say the least. But this album isnt near as funky and edgy as previous ones that give off that more ragtime feel to it. But bands evolve and you get some of those sparks of funk in this album. But its a new sound, new direction and the next album will be just a different and evolved from the last
i am the biggest cold war kids fan ever i seen them three times every time they are in the San Francisco area i GO but i must say this album is not their best but i like it this song and a few others are bad ass but its not the kids i remember i got tix to see them in april still cant wait
This song kinda reminds me of Ship of Fools by Robert Plant. He was lead singer of Led Zeppelin but that song is from a solo album. Check it out let me know if anyone else thinks so too. Still this is a good song.
i agree with people they have changed to much. i loved songs like we use to vacation, robbers and hang me up to dry because of the drum and guitar elements, but they have changed all that! all of it! BUT! give them space to grow, they are still in the testing zone guys!
voices alone don't make good artists, substance do. that is why i love me some cold war kids. but of course, nathan's voice can only enhances the substance. I hope Jan. 25 is the beginning of the new music revolution, but it probably won't happen...
It makes me want to jump up and stomp my feet
