INCUBUS - quicksand - (light grenades 2006)

[ColeClarkson2]

Pure genius and creativity in every song.

[xXKiSsxKoNtAgIoUsxX]

the only bad thing about this song, is that it ends so quickly >.<

[playerdepimp]

i love this incubus up till present also morning view and make yourself

[1and0nly22]

I want there to be more to this song. It teased me, but it's totally worth it.

[simplygaeb94]

If only this song went on forever. I'm so in love with it. Forever replay.

[majofly16]

[EggHerBlandYam]

5 years old. That's strange to think about.

[Shwamification]

Type "repeat" into the URL before the ".com"

[msbrittybam]

the song is soo short & good that you just gotta keeep listening to it. the vocals in this song are amazing

[za1pp]

Too damn Fucking short

[cwilliamsfl]

the lyrics are amazing...

[Restayvien]

Like most of Incubus' music...leaves you wanting more. =)

[sheplaysguitar2]

i have to agree with the consensus. way too short. i could probably listen to this song go on for like 20 minutes.

[chubbychad]

this song reminds me of my dick.... too short :(

[deepfried412]

Why is this song so short... :( other than that, amazing! (:

[omgaliowns]

i am simply never NOT amazed by what incubus does with their music. i do wish this song were longer--i think it'd never be off of repeat.

[HoodyBoy85]

@omgaliowns I agree; wish it was longer...but i do LOVE how it feeds into 'A Kiss...'

[geogenetic]

@omgaliowns i've always thought the same thing... the song is too short :)

[Jurassic55]

seen them 3 times going on 4

[kiddoraelyn]

seriously, this song needs to be like 7 minutes!

[gerrenx7]

God i wish this song was longer

[1212sillybilly]

Love this!

[iamnotjulesg]

i wish this was longer

[PaladinJulian]

@iamnotjulesg That's what she said. :3

[iamnotjulesg]

@PaladinJulian

not to me

[ge5undhe17]

Some people fall in love and find quicksand.

[jacketnipple]

I can't make up my mind

[LaoKyMani]

213 people fell in love & touched the sky.

7 people fell in love & found quicksand.

[MrATravis1]

@LaoKyMani oh i really like this one. creative use of words :)

[jjhutch10]

@LaoKyMani I'm somewhere in between, and can't make up my mind.

[elowdermilk]

@LaoKyMani your comment deserves a first place award. 20 likes for your comment is not enough.

[BaltimaVQ35]

It wonnnnnttttttt rest until there's nothing left

[sillytragedy]

I almost didn't like this CD until one day I was driving into chicago, and it seemed like all the songs directly correlated with the area I was in. This song and a kiss to send us off, are definitely murderous lol. I also loved, admiration

[DalsantoFabregas]

Is Everything in it's right place?

[ForteIIV]

I know it's cheesy, but... 7 people just got ate by the quicksand.

[rhombusskullvsteal]

disturbing

[HowardGLITCH]

Absolutely flawless!!! Love the timings so much :)

[Brooker0606]

This song gives me goose bumps and tears

[rajeev777]

7 people disliked this!?... wow, they must be deaf. 

[Josuenoway]

Great song great band hope to hear a new album soon

[1251isthetime]

love love love this song I also wish it was longer....reminds me of a clockwork orange whenever i hear it. So haunting...so beautiful. enjoy incubus.

[Raidneyami6]

This song...I listen to it over and over and don't get tired of it.

I love Incubus and I wish they had more songs like this.

[TheJoeyTaylor]

I would be a much, much bigger Incubus fan if they made more stuff like this.

[JaredsReelz]

Best live show I have ever seen. Better than the record in every way.

[selenie777]

I WISH THEY ADDED TO THIS SONG

[starfish419]

this is amazing...

[TOSTADO619]

I agree its too short leaving me wanting more! So deep it moves me. I wonder if they would ever think of extending this a bit. INCUBUS!!

[RichardRRojas]

@TOSTADO619 man totally. the ending was building up how could they make this song so short atleast repeat it right? this song is great

[JordanVANNA]

DIGIEREDOO! FUCK YESSSSS

[tonikminor]

i need more music that sounds like this... any suggestions, anyone?

[nimbledy]

@tonikminor check out new UK band Session One.

[5oulPower]

@tonikminor if you can take more hardcore electronic-experimental-rock music I highly recommend Radiohead to you. And to everyone else. Btw Radiohead are a legendary band (I'm not exagerating, its true.). LEGENDARY. So just in case you find them too experimental for your tastes its best not to say anything negative on their pages. They're notorious for having one the most loyal fans anywhere else. I should know, i visit their pages regularly. Good luck and I hope you enjoy Radiohead. :-)

[REDRAPIST]

I did not want this song to end

[Raidernat2]

Simply, the BEST

[slobkilla4killa]

SNORTING QUICKSAND TO THIS

[sweetmurder999]

<3 amor

[Hockey933]

this song live was sooo sick

[wackn0tdead]

followed by a kiss to send us of...lol

[yazzybutt]

incubus, stop being so amazing. can.not .handle.

[mrbojanglesx]

Too short indeed! Need more.

[ultramegaunknown]

This sounds a little like "Everything in its Right Place" from Radiohead.

That surreal keyboard riff...

[krysta823]

dude... smoke some good fucking ganj and then listen to this.

[boondocks291]

hellllll yeah

[shazamm3]

@krysta823 Haaa in fact I did, the day Light Grenades came out! Blazed one up in my car and put the cd on... perfect smokin' song :) And, one of the greatest songs ever in recorded history, imo.

[TheLeggio]

this intro sounds so simple but it has crazy ass time signitures

[ohboi2incubus]

Ive cried to this song... and if you know me. That jut doesn't happen.

[fredodp]

how the fuck do they do it.

[soccercude]

Nooooo the best is parabol to parabola by tool. That gets me so pumped

[nyinyer]

o.O HOLY FUCK!!!!! THIS INTRO...

[dsghoul]

NOOOOOO ITS TOO SHORT

[hyperion180deg]

@dsghoul I KNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

[fonzieman]

quicksand - a kiss to send us off best transition ever

[lovebichix]

@fonzieman i prefer lost keys (blame hoffman) to rosetta stoned off of tool's 10,000 days.

[v3r0nica91]

this song needs a part two!!

something like earth to bella

[hatsuharu333]

There's just something so mystical about this song. I wish it was longer, but I realize at the same time that making it longer wouldn't give it that fleeting effect it has. Man, I love Incubus...

[cindypoopoo]

i think this is my favorite incubus song ever

[IslesGirl14]

This song is so simple, but amazing. I love his vocals, esp. when he sings the chorus toward the end. it gives me chills.

[123guydrummer321]

this song is not simple....

but it's magical

[TheMeatballMen]

@123guydrummer321 Can you figure out the time signature? I'm having trouble :/

[madmadec]

@TheMeatballMen There's two variations. The first pass is 3 bars of 4, and then 1 bar of 5. The second pass is 4 bars of 4, and 1 bar of 5. That's why the 2nd time around it feels longer.

[madmadec]

@TheMeatballMen I should also add that when the chorus hits, it only does the first pass.

[TheMeatballMen]

@madmadec thank you so much

[MorningView4]

This song is so simple yet amazing. Incubus at their best.

[kiwilimew]

Okkaayyyyyyy now the monster is awake. It wooooon't rest until there's nothing left. Maybe ever & anon I forget about the pain. Someone bending light comes along & flowers lean towards the sun. Some people fall in love & toooouch the sky Some people fall in love & fiiind quicksand! I hover somewhere in between, I swear, I can't make up my mind.

[juiceitorloseit13]

I like how everyone comments on how every song on this album is the best song on the album...so true.

[wasabi654]

very fucking awesome!! except the fact that its short but hey its still incubus aint it?

[vice1121]

definitely one of the best songs from the album, or even from all their albums. dont know why its not as popular as their other songs though

[wesisemo1234]

this song sends me to another world.

[aridnepenthe]

Just saw these guys last night at the Houston show

I had Meet and Greet passes, it was amazing!

Front and center in front of Brandon

This song is simple amazing, the energy you feel at their shows is so spiritual.

[soSHOOTmeintheSMILE]

i was at that show too. that's so neat! i loved this song live. :]

[Enigma02011]

Holy crap, for some reason I LOVE this song, especially the last 30 or so seconds when he sings the "chorus." I also love the transition to A Kiss to Send Us Off. Incubus is a phenomenal band.

[ariebie]

incubus = fucking badass. if you see them live you will know what i'm talking about

[aridnepenthe]

Just saw em and met em last night

[inbina93]

lucky!!

[wackn0tdead]

agreed

[aridnepenthe]

@ariebie I got to meet them on my birthday and it was a dream come true.

[jbarnett007]

@ariebie they were badass and brandon was sick as hell... hard to pull that off

[VeniceQueen]

@ariebie Twice. Once my bf won tickets off the radio. =D

[rckid0814]

@ariebie just saw them last night!!! holy crap it was amazing!

[BassLabel]

The meter during the verse is 8+9/8 followed by 8+13/8, which is fucking brilliant and original. Then the chorus (the intense part) at the end is just 8+9/8 repeating

[fanvideos10]

I love the music, and the lirics too!

[jasperjcbchs]

saw them last night. amazing. holy shit.

[doinwork22]

this song has that sexy, haunting, beautiful, happy vibe to it. and thats why its one of my favorite songs

[lalapalooza44]

Ohhhhhhhhh I so agree with ya work22! Simply a fantastic song!!! I just wish they had written it to go on a bit more!

[CrayonPhysiks]

wow!

incubus!

theyve got the best songtexts and just the best songs!!!!

very intelligent!

big band!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ilove em

[ChEZBanDit]

these guys make slipknot look like milly vanilly. they are more intricit and intellegent. yet are still pretty heavy.

[WinningDays93]

I love how the album starts off chill and haunting, and then kicks into full gear with A Kiss To Send Us Off. Brilliant.

Incubus rules.

[orangeseller16]

incubus does rule my fav band right now

[xDuiveltj]

whyyyyy is it so short?

[senduc]

i'm not a fan of this type of music. i listen to mostly r&b and a bit of hip hop if it's not souljah boy type tracks. but since i heard "drive", years ago, i come back to listen to their tracks and in my opinion they're pretty good.

[Jonnyf5]

this type of music is superior.

[INOKZFROMTHEBAY]

soljah boy? fok solja boy!

[senduc]

lol i know, that's why i said i listen to a bit of hip hop aslong as it's not a soulja boy style track that has been blatantly made without any effort. sounds like shit and the lyrics r shit too.

[Jonnyf5]

great song. just listened to "everything in its right place" by radiohead. sounds kinda similar.

[Haddix11]

This song is so amazing, and so deep... I've aways found quicksand, full of shit... waaaaaaaaaaah

[zKeepItBrutalz]

jesus just shook my hand

[blackomen666]

<3

I cant ever get enough of this song.

[nexg3nz]

dude this is so awesome high.

[tyme4hell]

One of the most underrated band I've ever seen

[qmiq]

I notice that people who comment on Incubus songs are way more of a chill typa people...unlike so much other shit on youtube. Incubus F'n kills.Thats all I kno. I'm out.

[Allentria31]

Incubus has mastered the art of going into the heart of God and coming out with something ethereal, otherworldy, and haunting. They are so amazing!!!

[courtkneeram]

You hit the nail on the head! They are by far more spiritual than any other band out there.

[FabianHarlang]

The signature beat to this song is:

the tambourine counts to 18 and then the intro keyboard beat starts, it's 9/8 - 10/8 - 7/8 - 14/8

and after that the song and the drums starts Oookay 7/8 - 10/8 - 7/8 - 14/8

and in the chorus it's just 7/8 to 10/ 8

[Jonnyf5]

the signature is 5/4 the whole way through dude.

[FabianHarlang]

no you are wrong. try to count 5/4 doesn't fit everytime.

[FabianHarlang]

try to count 1 2 3 4 5 you will realize it doesn't fit. how do you count it I dont get it?

[FreedomBeats]

I think one part of the chord sequence is in in 5/4 and the other 7/4 maybe. Pretty complex anyway hhaa

[rlywut]

I love this song because the first word is "OK"

[Cestio]

This is one of the most amazing songs I've ever heard. I first heard it while tripping on mushrooms at a friend's house. Nobody saw him turn the stereo on, we just all of a sudden felt this incredible music seeping into our souls...

Love this song...

[FutureLoop107]

god

[Raetheblackbarbie]

I can't stop listening to this song. It's such a lovely song. nice Valentine day song too. ^_^

[missmogee]

This song is haunting and beautiful at the same time <3 I do wish it was longer though.

[MuddyTonic]

love it

[MuddyTonic]

haunting, isn't it?

[MuddyTonic]

Yes, it is indeed. What an astute observer you are. :)

[FunkMasterFlex33]

This is the best intro song ever

[Owninator666]

i wish this song was longer. Pure bliss

[MuddyTonic]

A Bisexual Ballad.

[nyinyer]

why is it bisexual?

[MuddyTonic]

just my take.

[thekkl]

Some people fall in love and touch the sky. Some people fall in love and find quicksand.

[ajiankanfujenereshon]

this song is trippy ...

incubus rocks!

[ruder6guns]

awesome!

[ToyMachineBum]

Its an Interesting style I love it

[lama24alwayz]

tihs song is interesting

[bonemama]

so great

[hedjahred]

para mi este es el mejor tema

[JLynn943]

great album

I don't know why more people don't like it. The band has progressed so much

[sincubus]

@JLynn943 Because most people aren't deep enough, they'd rather listen to recycled garbage over and over again

[1NKUBISS]

i completely agree with omaeokorosu on the fact that all their albums seem to be a different then the others in a good way, personally make yourself was my favorite album, although light grenades seemed to be a trippy album thats best listened to when high

[Aymarrr]

why do people slate this album?

its AMAZING

[omaeokorosu]

I agree.

Light Grenades is amazing. Like all of Incubus's album's it's a little different than the rest.

Granted, this isn't my favorite album, but anything by Incubus is amazing. Period.

[Becca81494]

Nice song! very calm and cool ...awesome band

[GABYINCUBUSMcCARTNEY]

GOD!! IM SO TURN ON!! HA

[navycamo]

i loooovvve how it fades into the next song.

[nothinqbutrock]

nur schade, dass es so kurz ist... aber sonst ist er einfach nur genial!

[uNANOtube]

what Language are you speaking?

[nothinqbutrock]

german!? ;)

[uNANOtube]

but that didn't go so well

[Iruletheworld3]

[uNANOtube]

[NateStud]
