  • Chris Bear isn't gay. Only Ed Droste is. I read an interview with Ed and he said he's the only gay one.

  • Why is it people i know they dont have idea who's grizzly bear? Grizzly bear is epic!!!!!!!!

  • If i was the cab driver they would have had to do 80 takes because I would have been singing along.

  • If only Chris Bear wasn't gay....haysus, he is perfect.

  • someday, I will jam with them.

  • thats a sexy guitar..

  • THERE SO AMAZINGGGGGG!! LOVE THEM THERE THE NEXT BEATLES

  • this is my favourite black cab video. I LOVE GRIZZLY BEAR!!!! they are all so talented

  • this sorta reminds me of "because" by the beatles

  • I loved every second of this amazing video!

    Their harmony is perfect!! <3

  • i love bands where every member can sing.

  • J'ADORE !!!! UNE REUSSITE !!!! Je ne me lasserai jamais de regarder cette vidéo.

  • I think at least 97,000 of those views are mine...

  • I find that I've taken a greater liking to their live acoustic versions than the original ones. Their harmony is simply haunting ♥

  • I love love love love love love love those people.

  • who disliked this?!

    

  • Comment removed

  • utterly mind-blowing. i don't even understand it. it's just a well written song with some nice harmonies, but for some reason my jaw drops open when i listen to this song..

  • MUSICIANS. 

  • This is INSAYYYYYYYYYYYN'

  • This is INSAYYYYYYYYYYYN'

  • They're doing this in the back of a cab and they still sound crazy good....that's nuts!

  • There's good music, and then there's good music played by good musicians. That's how they can sound good on a stage or in the back of a cab.

  • Surreal, yet beautiful.....

    Grizzly Bear never fail.

  • Damn! How do you get this quality performance in the back of a taxi cab? Dat harmony indeed!

  • Grizzly Bear - The future: POW!

    appropriate indeed.

  • @FridKid these are the types of questions that keep me from sleeping at night.

  • how can four dude sitting in the back of a cab sounds more textural and unique than the majority of popular music today?

  • nobody talks about Christopher voice !!?

  • Daniel's voice almost sounds double-tracked when he starts singing. That cab has amazing acoustics. Also, Daniel Rossen is an angel.

  • this is ridiculously magical

  • its filmed along the route i go to school - shepherds bush, I've been to all of the places they pass :D

  • so awesoome

  • Whoever the people were who disliked this video will be mauled by a Grizzly Bear.

  • years and years i play guitar, always thought there is no one else who i can identify with, now i now that there is a black cab session and feel like seeing friends.

    I Love it

  • Absolutely incredible that they can pull this off in the back of a moving car. Real talent is so hard to find nowadays.

  • amazing

  • i need this in my life forever

  • Good

  • SO.... MUCH... TALENT!

  • ahhhnth my msn in profile! Grizzly Bear - All We Ask (Black Cab Sessions: Chapter Seventy-Nine)

    

  • I love the black cab sessions, though it bugs me a LOT that the cab isn't actually black.

  • i came

  • Holy Fucking Shit

  • What's with all of these god awesome live performances that I CANNOT download from anywhere?!

  • Aplausos!

  • I cant get out of Grizzly Bear.

  • this video makes me happy to be alive.

  • @shortnigel

    Sooo jealous

  • I would kill to see them live....

  • @danielleRcole i saw them with radiohead last year. best concert of my entire life

  • Gosh, hearing this NEVER gets old! Goosebumps every time! There is also a video of them singing another song in a bathroom hat's just as wonderful lol

  • some good ass sound quality, especially for a cab ride jam

  • this is fucking amazing. i was just watching fleet foxes black cabs session, but my god... this cant be topped.

  • You guys are Amazing; Inspirational beyond worlds~!

  • Comment removed

  • Only 70 thousand views? More people need to witness this.....

  • @kaylamanor I know right! -.-

  • Epic tambourine.

  • Can't bite Blogotheque's art of filming this type of situation. The camera is ridiculous (amateur type). But Bears are still great !

  • but dear god they need a better camera operator.

  • @ErinClifford The shaky camera makes me feel more like I'm there. =)

    It's natural, it's great

    And for others car sickness. Lol.

  • god, this band is so great. i love them.

  • love this song!!!! it makes me want to pee!!!! :D

  • they sound amazing

  • fuckin grizzly bear....so fuckin tight

  • So beautiful... I love them sooo much...

  • Comment removed

  • the harmony towards the end is so ridiculously good and effortless

  • Good music.

  • Incredibly beautiful!

  • so badass

  • Whether Grizzly Bear is performing live, jamming in a bathtube or a taxi cab. They just make it sound beautiful where ever they are. I think they should do one in a portapottie, but a clean one. I love these guys.

  • theyre so damn fkn good.. daniel rossen could sing me to sleep any night of the week

  • Did they run a red light @4:00 ?

    hahahha

  • this sound a lot like jeff buckley. A LOT...

  • @fede018 Jeff Buckley doesn't own beauty.

  • at first i thought: "musical recitals inside of moving cab??? how stupid is that???"

    but i'm as wrong as possible this, the one with fleet foxes and MMJ's are very intimate felt performances i love these series i think i'll keep track of them ñ_ñ

  • how are they so good? haha i love it

  • I'm not really a fan of this band, but if their album sound like this, I would play it constantly. I listened to the studio track and this one back to back and their acoustic sound stripped down is far more rich.  You can't really hear the harmonizing on the album track. I love this recording!

  • I want Edward to sing me to sleep every night for the rest of my life

  • oh my god, when they ALL sing together at 3:37...the richness of their harmony is RIDICULOUS

  • the five people who disliked this probably couldn't bear the pained beauty of this song.

  • ahaha true thing,,,grizzly bear is like nothing i have ever heard in my life. It's a great fucking band!

  • @HohMahGawcheck out Rossens sideline band- called Department of Eagles as they be bloody great.

  • this makes me love the song even more!

  • Ed's voice... so good.

  • DAT HARMONY

  • i love grizzly bear and am so glad to have been a fan from the beginning. they're a great addition to this generation of music. i can't wait to grow with them as their music grows! <3

  • this band is so amazing, i think they should do more acoustic stuff like this

  • @ameels12 i love this version too but i couldnt find it as an mp3 anywhere so i had to use fastestyoutubedownloader. com but it doesnt work on macs

  • Grizzlt Bear make the music I dream of making, except they make it better than I do in my dreams

  • @01AlanBennett  So I Am

  • I completely agree with Southern Point being amazing. Daniel Rossen has such a smooth, easygoing voice.

  • I didn't think it was possible for a youtube clip to sound this good. So talented, it's in a cab, wow. Half the bands out there couldn't sound this good after months in a studio.

  • I wish I could see the fretboard more hahaha. I am trying to figure this song out and I'm lucky 'cause it's normally played in standard tuning but this version for somereason is down a half. I'm always down a half step hahaha.

  • Just drop your E to D, and you got it..

  • Flawless,breathtaking...Grizzl­y Bear as usual ;)

  • ya no this song sounds like southern point.

    anyone agree?

  • the same vocal riff for the the ''carnival is calling'' us as the ''southern point is calling us'' bit..part of the interconnections and layers that make veckatimest so brilliant

  • It's insane how good the chorus sounds. Those amazing harmonies, and of course Daniel sounding absolutely flawless.

  • can't...stop...replaying..

  • I have SUCH a crush on Ed Droste.

    Especially in this music video.

    There's something about his lack of camera-eye contact [at least within the live videos I've come across] that really draws me into him, he just seems very modest and shy despite how talented he seems to be. ^_^ Lol, I dunno i'm weird.

  • tremenda interpretación!

  • This is currently one of my favorite Youtube videos.

  • Totally. The quality is so awesome for being in a cab. True talent!

  • you know a band is excellent when they sound like this in the back of a cab...very impressive

  • Anywhere to find/ purchase a high quality version of this performance?

  • Not hatin at all. Is it true these dudes are gay? And that one of them actually has the last name bear?

  • the drummer's name is chris bear and ed is gay. imo, grizzly bear are the most musically talented band on this planet at the moment!!

  • Comment removed

  • Why?

  • Comment removed

  • lovin' the harmonies.

  • Wow! ;_;

  • wow, i never fantasised about being a cab driver....... before this.....

  • Seriously, they sound better here than they did on SNL, this is so awesome! These guys are so amazingly good.

  • they were on snl?

  • there like the new beatles

  • @noonelikesalexD Yes!!! There is something so Beatle-esque about them.

  • first off im super jealous of the camera man.... he just sat less then 2 feet away from the entire band while they played the fuck outta that song.

    really cool video black cab. i love all these small pages posting videos of great bands in obscure and in this case moving places.

    finally youtube is good for something.

  • this is my favorite grizzly bear song :)

  • that looks sooo uncomfortable...BUT it still sounds awesome!!!

  • how? how is it possible for a band to be THIS GOOD live? it's exact if not better than album quality. amazing. so amazing!

  • Har du det bra?

  • I can hear some Steely Dan influence in this song...Love it.

  • "I can't

    Get out

    Of what I'm into

    With you."

    I love this song and them very much. I especially dig the harmonies in that line.

  • i love that too

  • @LucidDream That is one of my favorite lines from any song ever. It's always in my head. So good.

  • this is so beautiful

    and so are you, chris bear~

    i want to take a ride in this cab

    btw

    @secretcompartment i love your comment

  • one of the only times one would wish to be a tambourine

    cue crude joke about being on chris bears lap whilst i get tapped...

    oh yeah, i went there

  • @secretcompartment LOL!! Perfect!

  • I listen to this song every morning on my way to work on the bus.

  • Unreal music...I can't fucking describe it....I'm almost jealous!

  • i get shivers when i hear this acoustic version of the song. i get the same feeling when a person i really admire confronts me and smiles. grizzly bear rocks!

  • .. I'm in loove. These boys are so talented.

  • wish I was in that cab

  • hell fucking yea same here

  • total damn synergy

  • Actuallt theyre all in the cab

  • Comment removed

  • that would ruin the whole essence of the session...

  • What? The drummer has the tambourine. Silly assumptions ;)

  • Drummer didn't stay behind, he's to the right of Droste playing the tambourine and singing. Such a talented bunch of guys...

  • Comment removed

  • I can't stop watching this!!!

  • Wow. These guys are amazing. Ed Droste has such a beautiful and classical voice. Their music makes me think of a fairytale. :) Awesome.

  • looks like none of these grizzly bears has seen a shower for weeks

  • you cant smell them so why do you care! :-p

  • i don't! i wouldn't have 'em any other way <3

  • better version than on "veckatimest"

  • I absolutely love love their voices

  • could this be any more beautiful? i think not. wonderfully done.

  • Black Cab is the crucible for good musicians. The lack of space limits you with instruments, and cars are pretty much dead acoustically, which strips the vocalist of even the slightest amount of resonance. It's almost a challenge. "Come and play your music in this car. We dare you to sound good."

  • AMAZING.

  • Wasn't really aware of Grizzly Bear until I stumbled upon their show at Austin City Limits. They are Brilliant live. Not a lot of groups can be as spectacular live as they are recorded. Grizzly Bear definitely can.

  • I got to see them live a few days ago. I was expecting them to be incredible, and then i was still totally blown away. They do it like no one else. So original and so well done.

  • ahh i adore this band:)
