  • Just incredible.

  • he is so smart about  at music

  • really nothing to add.just listen

  • I can't get over how good his voice is at the beginning.

  • the sticks on the countertop kind of ruin an otherwise awesome performance.

  • @wayfaringstoner Yeah, coming from a percussionist like myself, Zach is not that great at percussion. But this song is awesome.

  • Para os brasileiros que passarem por aqui: espero que muitos de nós nasçam em nosso país e todos façamos a boa música voltar a ser A MÚSICA BRASILEIRA. Abraços!

  • ''I listen to bands that don't even exist yet''

  • @lacamodi well lad, good news! they are showing up in Mexico ;) Wishes do come true after all!

  • Some people get to listen to this coming from next door, I get to listen to my neighbour shouting at the screen as he plays COD.

  • that what my bands rehearsals are like. Sometimes it's better to be in different rooms from eachother

  • this song sounds like it came from a place outside this world.

  • The unfortunate part is that Zach Condon can never own a "Clap-On" light, because every time he turns it on or off, this beautiful sound comes out.

  • @postwarpenance Then again, that's not so much unfortunate after all!

  • chills.

    

  • its really good

  • Pride of the minstrels, beautiful spectacle!

  • sonunda da gevrek gevrek gülüyor piç "mınıza koyduk" der gibi, ama o da haklı zira çok pis koyuyor adama.

  • Is it just me or are their videos such as this WAY better than their album versions?

  • @deathhippy97 Because he's beautiful

    

  • @deathhippy97 dude. TOTALLY. their recorded stuff sounds sterile and boring.

  • mahusay!

    

  • I've had this song on youtube repeat for four hours straight and my brain still wants more. it's one of the most beautiful thing's i've ever heard.

  • ISSO SIM É MUSICA! ♥

  • 我操 I'll quit this reading all those feeds and websites only for being four years late to this.

  • If only half the artists today had half the musical genius of that watermelon....

  • With love fromTÜRKİYE...................

  • The French horn player Arcade Fire brings along on tour? That violin player is AMAZING

  • Everything sounds better with beer!

  • get it!!! Beirut

  • hmm, not enough musicians

  • this song made me burst into tears..so beautiful

  • I LISTEN TO BANDS THAT DON'T EVEN EXIST YET

  • @Randazzo1234 I have that t-shirt.

  • That guy's shirt around 1:50 or so... 'I listen to bands that don't even exist yet.' seems appropriate.

  • Am I the only one that thinks that the beginning souds like it could be on Peanuts??

  • 1. Move to Austin, TX.

    2. Refuse to pursue interests in playing instrument of any sort.

    3. ???

    4. Permanently enjoy being that chick on the couch at 1:27

  • @hilaryhearts she's the horn player, seemingly. After all, it is sitting next to her

  • i wish i was them

  • perfect :)

  • nice place ,nice people , awesomw music.

  • WATERMELON FTW!!!!!!

  • i want a life like that. where everywhere i go there's music and peace.

  • The tallent in this room blows my mind.

  • @LygerProductions same here man :D

  • i love that it looks like a hot summer night in brooklyn. a humid night with an occasional breeze that feels really sweet.

  • magico

    da até arrepios

    magic,

    creepy

    

  • Compared to the album version, this one has such a raw, tribal, almost primal sound to it. So good.

  • The most gorgeous, astonishing and sick part is where the violin starts to give the song its very identity.

    Simple as beauty, talent and class

  • That's a nice laugh at the end.

  • The Beirute is a Fresh breeze in music scene 

  • zach's voice is amazing

  • Beirut. I need you in my life.

  • the double bassist is the sexiest man i've ever seen.

  • The guys tshirt a 1:52 - I want it

    "I listen to bands that don't even exist yet"

  • @VivaLaJeunesse threadless . com

  • I wanna eat that watermelon.

  • ya i wish i lived above these guys... and, violin = finger raped

  • fuck this is amazing. my favorite piece by them. serious goosebumps

  • conjures images of iguanas with curly ringlets and jangly emeralds on their spines as they seek the centre of the earth

  • 112 are stupid robots!

  • ITS SO GOOD!

  • 112 people are deaf and blind and actually not human.

  • @sallypoppins I loved your opnion!!!! lol!!!

  • @sallypoppins they are scared of the 5'o'clock shadow

  • @sallypoppins  Or they just didnt like this song?

  • @killthetorment Which is actually the same.

  • @sallypoppins That's a matter of opinion just because their taste differs from yours does not make them wrong you share some of the same views as

    Hitler...

  • Introducing the new clap-on Beirut. *Clap clap* *Music starts*

  • This actually sounds so much better than the album version. This sounds much more lively and the music sounds 'played' with varying intensities and location instead of flat in one position as in the album..

  • Fast-forwarding through the next three and a half years of my life as a music major so I can learn violin and brass, learn this song, and play it till I die.

  • 1:52

    Read his shirt.

    Such a hipster- it made me burst out laughing, disrupting a very beautiful moment I had with the song its self.

  • Somewhere between the seventh and eighth replay my next paycheck was dedicated to buying a violin. Absolutely brilliant music.

  • this has been one of the most amazing song i heard until now... and the creativity that fills the video is something that words can't describe :-)

  • Los amo!!!! desde que lo escuche por primera vez...

  • 112 people are emo pricks

  • @danielguevara1 the dislike 'jokes', they take no creativeness at all and aren't funny, if you have nothing to say then just don't type anything at all.

    I love how they find the most random places to play, what a good life they all must have

  • Zac needs to stfu, hes stressing out the violin.

  • Epic

  • Condon looks like a more softly-featured Ed Norton. Which makes me want to watch Fight Club.

  • Zach Condon is looking like a drunk with that beard!

  • I.MUST.HAVE.THAT.APARTMENT! oh, and the music is ORGASMIC

  • @TheGmccoy exactly what i think too

  • it seems like a play. i wish when i was coming in from being out somewhere i could have all my friends ready to go to play a song to reflect on my daily activities as if i was in a musical. this feels like a musical

  • This is just amazing.

    Shows we don't need technology and all these artificial noises to make music.

    I love this.

  • THAT WATERMELON. IS MAKING MUSIC.

  • So good. So so so good.

  • 0:09 Clap on!

  • Very nice clip

  • this is, MAGIC. :)

  • 110 people have been locked away in a basement for 10 years or so with just mtv on television

  • @keesurt agreed, how can one dislike this?

  • @keesurt wtf do you mean? i would shit my pants with euphoria after 10 years of that and then seeing this

  • @papatia it's about the ones that pressed the dislike button... 

  • @papatia i understand that

  • Can I press that "like" button a million times?

  • 1:11 , tattoo of a french horn?

  • waves of music and ingenuity filled the room, animosity...nonexistent, every harmony came together and took on a form that of god, originality protruding throughout the depths of every soul, all one, they continued creating that which had never been heard, beauty...formed and fostered, it had to end, but the ethereal aura never left us, immortalized forever by the human gaiety that will forever hold

  • just perfect..... i love it!!!!!!

  • I like the guy's shirt that says: listen to bands that don't exist yet. I wish I had that shirt.... I adore his voice and the violin part, it's beautiful.

  • "make music wherever you are" I really like that idea

  • I wish I could have sex with this song.

  • ich bin froh darüber, dass musik mit sinn und verstand immer noch ihre anhänger findet. Es ist mir immer wieder eine ehre und ein vergnügen, musik zu hören, die mit liebe und hingabe gemacht wurde. Man kann das Herzblut, dass verwendet wurde, richtig hören!

  • Brilliant musicians... amazing sound... Zach's vocal timbre is ...well.. let's just say he can marry me anyday...Thank GOD for artists like this!!!!!!! <3

  • how is the audio recorded ?

  • ...and by 2:55 to 3:20 I actually mean 2:25 to 3:20.

  • The violin from 2:55 to 3:20 is actually my favorite part :) Simultaneously haunting and sexy!

  • Comment removed
