  • Those of you who have not seen the original music video for this track I highly recommend you watch it. It is one of the most amazing electro pop songs I have ever heard in my life and has a really fun video to accompany it .

  • I missed the drag queen.

  • Would love to watch them live!!

  • Es sich anzuhören: Ein Traum..:):)

  • So sad to see that so few find these other gems who are just as good, when almost 4 million have listened to heartbeats.

  • Comment removed

  • I came

  • A way to get back in 2006 and go watching The Knife on tour ?

  • YAY!!!! The knife, in its utter awsomeness has spread. It was on the semi finale of bones!! (not this exact song) XD FINALLY!! ITS ABOUT TIME!!

  • @Tranzalite That was actually Fever Ray - Keep The Streets Empty For Me.

    So just half of the knife.

  • They're not doing anything that Devo, Kraftwerk or the Talking Heads didn't already do twenty five years ago.

    Still interesting though.

  • @tpaladino I like Kraftwerk and Talking Heads, but The Knife is in a league of their own.

  • @tpaladino I disagree, I think that whilst those bands all created this musical image much earlier, the knife have refined it into a new, on their own terms, idea...

  • They are breathtraking, Efterklang is pretty amazing too.

  • Awwwww.. I want to be there !!!! 'imagine the ambiance *.*

  • 11 haters!!!! shoo .... go away! this rocks!!!

  • It doesnt get any better than this. Perfection...

  • I wasn't really looking for some more than some company on the dancefloor...

    AMAZING

  • Can someone please let me know what instrument they are using that starts at about 2:09, it sounds like a steel bass drum from Jamaica or something? and where can I find other bands that use it? I'm obsessed.

  • @Mackynut13 It`s Steelpan !

  • i think their live stuff sounds so much better...and it gives me the chills

  • mind = blown

  • SPECTACULAR...wish i had "physically" been there...;-) Thanks for posting!

  • Guys :P sorry

  • I'm 37 and i never thought of a band who can fill my self so much as the knife.

    Thanks you girls...muahhh

  • @CHEERS4U2 Hey AMIGO! This is TIMELESS/AGELESS...lol ;-)

  • A shame the quality is so poor. This version is amazing.

  • man, I wish I lived in Sweden..I'd have a better chance of seeing this live :D

  • I love the fact they turn a playful, fun flirty song into this beast live

    It's difficult to make the line "I wasn't really looking for some more than some company on the dancefloor" sound sinister, but they did it!

    I think this live version may be their finest song actually... ack I love it

  • NIesamowite! 

  • Suuuuu...Perbbbbbbb!!!!!!!!!!

    

  • vad häftigt det måste ha varit att se detta live!

  • I need this Version on mp3!!!

    Can anyone help me???

  • @derCUELLE

    download "free youtube to mp3 converter"

  • @derCUELLE It's from the bonus live DVD/CD that comes with the deluxe edition of Silent Shout. You can buy the mp3 on amazon (the bonus disc is for sale in mp3 under the name Silent Shout - an audio-visual experience)

  • only just learned about this. very awsome. can't believe what i was missing out on

    

  • I was going to leave a comment on how much this music..this performance touched me, made me realize the..power i guess of such artisic genius..as i started typing I realized there are no words.....

  • this is amazing... i'm covered in goose bumps

  • If you buy the "Silent Shout' Deluxe CD you get a DVD and CD of this show as a bonus. Plus, a disc with all their videos. AWESOME!!

  • I share the same sentiments. This was randomly posted on a forum I visit. I instantly fell in love with their music. I'm 35 yo and in general, don't follow music anymore but I absolutely love this band.

  • lol when she started singing I got goose bumps

  • God damn

  • 601

  • Wow, I would love a higher audio quality version :( :(

  • is there a studio version of this exact version not the original?

  • @unholyedsoul a lot of the time they like to make their live performances sound similar but different from the studio originals on purpose to make the experience different when you see them live (which is amazing). to my knowledge they don't record these and release them. if you want to hear a different take on your favorite song, go see them live.

  • O.O

    mind = blown

  • I personally like The Knife's live sound better than studio versions, but both are amazing! LOVE THIS!

  • "All your mums are whores!!!"

    ..............................­....

    wish i could see your faces,you probably got the same faces as they have here in Italy when you ask someone if they never heard before The Knife.

    Sorry for that,all your mums are blessed because they have sons who loves this MAGIC duo.

  • holy shit...i can't describe this....this....this...genius music

  • too good- makes me forget about that whole 'reality' thing...

  • verdammt geiler song...auch wenn mich das etwas an amanda lear erinnert!

  • this is as close u can get to religion....don't need anything else!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • is this legal? jesus...

  • shit!!!! hope they'll get together again and tour. I'm not the same since I saw Fever Ray in concert.....

  • Totally addictive!!

  • esta muy bacano... so good... el sonido total diferente...

  • had my hair stand up for about 2 min's :O

  • sucks ass

  • I'm a depeche mode fan, but those swedich are amazing..pure sound, one day i'll live in the nord..

  • @FC571

    So am I. ;)

    I think they are as so talented, perfect and professional as DM and their works are as pure but well composed as DM's.

  • I LOVE THEM!

  • when that woodblock or whatever comes in at 2:40....oh shit! this is an amazing live performance.

  • yum.

  • OMFG. So sexy... how come?

  • 2:11 <3

  • 2:11 <3

  • who continually makes this video montage??

  • Son genios de la música...que es lo último de ellos....ojalá sigan haciendo música...los quiero!!!

  • eargasm!

  • great on k

  • I wish this band would perform in Scotland sometime. I absolutely love them right now, and this particular version of this song has made me want to see them even more than usual. Absolutely stunning!

  • @craigjcampbell

    Too bad they split up a few years back. They're making an Opera together now, but sadly "The Knife" is no more :(

    Check out Fever Ray for more Karin. She's also been in a couple of Royksopp songs too

  • @OOglebooze The live shows left for Fever Ray are very limited European dates. Everyone honestly has a better chance of The Knife reuniting after the Opera for some dates. Either way, Olof has his Oni Ayhun project and Karin will appease her creative side with some weirdly amazing side project.

  • @OOglebooze are u sure? i've read that they took a break since karin had family.

  • @OOglebooze What are you talking about? O.o They still exist, they just have a break from The Knife for their own solo projects :)

    The band still exist.

  • this sounds waaaay eerie. alot more then the studio version

  • this song is featured in a new canadian movie from Xavier Dolan called les Amours imaginaires (check it here). The scene is 2 min long, and it is the best scene I ever saw in a movie. Check it one day when it comes to your country...

  • @mec7up Where can I view this scene?

  • @rockinawesomeoate : the movie is out only in canada. If you want to know about the movie check youtube under "amours imaginaires trailer" The scene is impossible to find on the net sorry. But when this movie comes to your country, check it it is FANTASTIC. The movie has won prizes in cannes film festival and best movie in the world in Vienna festival.

  • Best Song and Version ever - thanx!

  • silent shout + pass this on = AMAZING SOUND!!!!! Olöf + KARIN = AMAZING DUO!!!!

  • geni

  • que maravilla este grupo, me hacen mucho bien!!!!

  • its very hypnotic. Seems like all of their live performances are better than their other work.imo =)

  • awesome version, sounds way different and spookier live. love karin

  • vem räknar nummarna i början?

  • @sufferationist Fulla idioter skulle vara min gissning.

  • Half my soul for this dvd

  • Buy Silent Shout Deluxe edition off of amazon for $14.99

    It comes with the cd, this dvd, and a cd of the dvd. Can't beat it!

    I'm about to buy it.

  • @ChesterAsucka Yeah, and I also found a better use for my soul... Thanks :-)

  • THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS

  • new youtube design sucks

  • It fuckn' does. I don't know what they're thinking! Someone is sleeping on the switch in there!

  • it would be awesome if the knife came to canada. . .but i doubt they even go to the states! (ps thats what canadians call USA. . .apparently we are the only ones that call them that! lol)

  • @alexthenerd1 I live in the USA and I call it the states, haha

  • They did go to the states...

  • @alexthenerd1 Nah, you're not.

  • @zosorh Ok, I stand corrected then. I thought it seemed normal to say 'the states', but I heard that only Canadians say it. lol

  • the new album sucks.

  • this live version is so much better than the album version. arp4life

  • Ohhhh! muy grandes!

  • quiero que mi primo me penetre con esta rola en mis audifonooos!!!!

  • I've only recently found them, along with Fever Ray and their other opera project and I can't remember ever being so excited by music. Really, just amazing. Thankyou Sweden!

  • @xclementinexk Olof has done some really wicked minimal techno stuff under the name of Oni Ayhun maybe check it out!

  • Comment removed

  • The highs and synths are actually from silent shout with pass this on vocals and steel drums over the top. must have been amazing. really want to see them live

  • Me too, I'm from the UK and I'd travel anywhere to experience this. I think I might have found them too late though.

  • OMG,I have never listen this version,

    amazing!! I dont know why this sound makes me bit cry but feel's very good, I love the knife

  • The Knife rarely plays live shows anymore, considering they are taking a three year break while Karin works on her solo project "Fever Rays" and Oolaf works on his dj'ing in U.K. under the stage name "Coolaf"

  • are they playing the uk anytime soon???

  • jag alskar dig, the knife!!!!

    doesn't cost that much... :P

  • I'm jealous I have to wait till September.

  • i have to wait until october :/

  • Hm, what? What are you waiting fpr til Septemeber? Are they coming? Why aren't they coming?

  • Goosebumps .. would consider giving up body parts to see them live.

  • OH my god, I was literally just thinking of the same exact thing. Literally. What part of my body I would give to see them.

  • Sounds better live imo

  • swedish techno and singers are the mthrfckng best. goddamnit! im so proud to be half swedish :)

  • I like both live and original version of this song, but how do i get a hold of this live version in all its beautiful analog sounding synth glory!? :)

  • search google for The knife - Silent Shout (An audio visual experience)

    They are just mindblowing! :x

  • Thanks cr00kie :), i will get onto it straight away!!, and you are Romanian!, i have found that most Romanians that i have met that have migrated to my home country to be GREAT people :)

  • They are in general... but because some of the rednecks out here and mostly because of the gypsies that live here and migrate in other countries and cause a lot of trouble, we have a bad image... us romanians that is... damn gypsies!

    anyway, no problem, have fun... you should find a torrent
