I love the production on this track, the way that they just let it build up layer upon layer rather than just rush towards a predictable formulaic tune. Reminds me of old school tunes like Jam & Spoon, Age of Love and Way Out West. Modern Dj/producers should listen and learn.
Canadians are mean. They keep this great artist for them, and give to the world Céline Dion.
Luckily I coul see him with his G string band in 2007, he was touring in France, I'm still on shock since then. One of the best live performance I've ever seen. Unfortunately, he played only for 50 persons.
Still unknown in France, although each time I make someone listen to that song, it's always like : WOW wtf is this ? It's damn good !
@aljour Who says they dont find the iTunes link themselves, besides man if they wanna steal music that ain't the uploader's problem, thats YouTube's problem. If they don't want people stealing music because some dipshit found a way to download the sound files of a video then they should put up the right countermeasures to prevent it from happening. Now please, Quit Bitching And Enjoy The Music!
@aljour Nobody cares man, they give the credit to who the credit belongs to, all they're doing is providing the community with a way to listen to some awsome music, its not like they're making a profit off of it.
@aljour no, but if we didn't put these up, we would be stuck with radio edits of songs which last half as long as the original and even simple words which aren't offensive are censored from channels like VEVO.
je me dois d'ajouter mon opinion à ce chef d'œuvre musical ! tout d'abord, la seule chose que l'on peut reprocher à cette pièce, c'est d'être trop courte. J'aimerais tellement entendre ça dans une discothèque... ça changerait l'atmosphère insipide normale des lieux ! Bref, cette pièce à été composée par un GÉNIE !!! l'ensemble des 5 guitares, faire en sorte que ça soit musical, émotif, entrainant, personne d'autre n'auraient pu faire mieux !
Du temps où cette toune était le thème musical de l'émission du matin à R-C à Québec, je me disais: ouais, et puis après??? Mais ce n'était que l'intro. Je viens de découvrir la pièce complète et là, je comprends: c'est une pièce à long développement et j'aime beaucoup! Merci d'avoir téléchargé ça!
@kyletheweedman hell yea man. whenever i get a new album (now its bob marley ;D) i just listen to it until i bug all my friends by singing it over and over again (or in this case, humming and air drumming it)
On trouve la théorie de l'harmonie des contraires d'Héraclite dans cette musique! à 3:30! Des son contraires qui finissent par former un seul et unique son harmonieux. C du génie!
@DarboukaKid ho que oui tout a été bien composé méticuleusement. même en 2010, je ne cesse de l'écouter et les guitares... elles sont phénoménales !!! c'est poignant !
to me this song is so full of all kinds of different facettes: danceable, relaxable - everything. i consider this one to be my favourite song ever, no matter what i will hear in the future
Yo, SAAAME here. Gearbox should get the Nobel Peace Prize or something for making Borderlands hahaha. I really wish I had a mix cd of nothing but Cage the Elephant and Champion just to listen to it on the ride to work etc.
Proper reference? You tree hugger why don't you go cry somewhere about it okay. It was a joke, if you didn't like it than go cry. Oh and btw, Borderlands is a video game...video games don't promote war. Goddamn, never thought I'd see someone take a stupid lil joke so seriously.
@zeakins Tree hugger? I nvr said they promote war idiot (I just said they didnt promote peace)...but your crappy lameshit joke didnt make any sense at all...still I guess I'm the dipshit for having wasted my time replying and arguing...so fuck my life/inability to let it go...and go to the zoo b/c you're obviously a few monkeys short of a goddamn barrel--
@HansLe518 WOW commenting on something two months old. Doesn't promote peace?...it's a video game, you're taking a video game seriously and I laugh at your logic. Yes it was a crappy lameshit joke, that you obviously got offended by. So yes you are a dipshit for attempting to argue with me.
@zeakins Didn't get offended by the content of the joke...just offended by how you throw around terms like you're making sense with them...my original point was that it was a lameshit "joke"... you agreed it was a lameshit "joke"..and for some reason you also call me a tree hugger and...yeah my logic is really messed up I guess...just like your original lameshit "joke"
just hear dbaout this guy the other day. gotta say im really enjoying his shite. if you like this song check out a band called ratatat. loud pipes and wildcat are awesome songs. its also chill electronica with guitar and bass.
Did you ever think that maybe they're not supposed to match with the beat? A lot of jazz musicians play off-count. It's just music. There are no rules at all. Not even tempo. If it sounds good, it's good.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I did not mention the music, the description said lyrics:ti ta ta ta ti ti ta. I expected someone to start singing ti's and ta's, it never happened and the ti's and ta's didn't match the rhythm of the song so they were completely irrelevent to begin with.
everything you will ever need can be found on the web. check their myspace page for their t-shirts. you can also have ones custom made thru some online companies.
does anyone recognize this t-shirt? where is it from? when i was little my parents gave me one of those as a night shirt.. wonder if they listen to champion 2 :/
Hmm, a group of guys that play for him in most of his songs, in the live vids, it's the same group, they seem to like traveling together alot, wait, what's a group that makes music together called again? Oh yeah, a BAND!
