  • Sorry if i am mistaken but for the 2/3 years i have been listening to this song i'm almost certain it says "pass the ball learn to swim" in the backing vocals for the first chant.

  • Amazing live. especially this song

  • Vinieron a Colombia con RHCP y yo no pude ir :'( cada vez que me acuerdo me dan ganas de llorar

  • Why are people so quick to put labels on music and pigeon hole bands? Listen to the music you like and don't waste time criticizing the music you don't, simple!

  • hopefully they make more shit like this on their next album in 2012

  • I don't know why people are calling this indie. It's Math-rock.

  • this sucks

  • @15951alex15951 YOU SUCK !!

  • @lianaxsickk fuck off and listen to your justin bieber shit

  • @deathtrack15 herpderp

  • @potatodonki :D Donki is mad. Thanks for wasting my time and yours arguing over YouTube. Makes complete sense. Could have just let my "unintelligent" comment go, but no. Let's make a scene! Pfft. Get over yourself and learn that not everyone will appreciate every band on this earth. Damn. G'day.

  • @lianaxsickk I'm not mad. Why would I be mad? You haven't insulted me. I'm simply saying that you should find a better way to expressing your dislike for something, other than "This sucks", because it doesn't even make sense. I'm also not saying that you should appreciate everything you hear, just find a better way of expressing it. Gah, I relish GOOD debate, so let's just end this here. You can continue with your life, smiling randomly like a fool, and I'll have one less dumb bitch in my life.

  • @potatodonki :O someone's butthurt. Everyone's music taste is different. You have the right to say you don't like my music and I have the right to say that I don't like yours. Now take the dildo out of your butt before you get more worked up over my "unintelligent" comment :D

  • @lianaxsickk I'm not saying you have no right to dislike something. But to say it sucks, is unacceptable. Its art, and you haven't a clue what they were trying to accomplish, so you have absolutely no right to say whether it sucks or not. Did you honestly just say "butthurt" and make an anal joke in the same post? Pssh. Stop trying to act all cool with your little grin at the end of your incredibly stupid and vulgar comment. You just continue to make yourself look like...well, a nimrod.

  • I just had and indiegazmspazm.

  • Comment removed

  • looks like a poster for american apparel

  • 3:11 BOOOOOOOOOM

  • when it drops.. indie orgasm <3

  • @DRDRAYz this isn't dubstep you cunt.

  • @x0xDarthWyylokx0x err just because its not dub step doesn't mean a song can't have a drop, so stfu you clearly know nothing about music.

  • @DRDRAYz yeah, but musically it isn't called a drop.

  • @x0xDarthWyylokx0x take it from me, i've done music A/S, and Music tech B-tech Level 3, any form of music, where there is a build up and then the tembre "Drops" is known as a "drop" kinda makes sense dont you think

  • @matthewapplemac ONLY DUBSTEP DROPS LIKE SKRILLEX, mate. Timbre* more of a breakdown than a drop.

  • @x0xDarthWyylokx0x Skrillex is not dubstep, he is either, grime, or complextro, a sub genre of electro house, and no, it is still a drop, a breakdown is when the whole tembre breaksdown, there is a massive difference to a drop and a breakdown, i can assure you you are wrong, but if you want to keep arguing thats fine with me, i'll keep prooving you wrong :)

  • @matthewapplemac wow, just chill the fuck out

  • @SpiritedEditing i am chilled dude, :) haha :D

  • @matthewapplemac you're going quite far with this, and actually, some of skrillex's work IS dubstep (as much as it is shite dubstep), his electro/house work like kill everybody is good

  • @matthewapplemac Skrillex is dubstep, grime is p money dickface. it's not a drop, I don't care. plus why dont you have your full A level in music? b-techs mean fuck all... timbre* 

  • @x0xDarthWyylokx0x B-tech level 3 = the equivalent of 4 Alevels, plus i get a hell of a lot more experience than i did at sixth form, and no mate, skrillex is not dubstep, dubstep is mellow and driving, easy to listen to, sometimes a bit heavy, skrillex is closer to electro house than dubstep, he's taken ideas from dubstep yes, but his layout of music follows a more stereotypical electro house styling. it is a drop mate haha, but ah whey, some people are just stubborn i s'pose

  • @ImBonkerz100 Gurrrrl, don't make me snap ma fingers in a Z formation~

  • @ImBonkerz100 Someone told me to check it out. I did. I gave my opinion. Chill out, man.

  • @yralljustjealous It's called "feedback" and an "opinion".

  • wtf??? thats there best song!!!! really really nice!!!

  • possibly the best ever song ive seen live

  • This song sucks. It's so repetitive. Why.

  • @lianaxsickk why bother commenting then? And why bother listening?

  • @lianaxsickk yer i'm sure the foals really care about your feedback. they're a band touring the world

  • @lianaxsickk I'm sorry, but "This sucks" is not a valid opinion. Nor is it intelligent in the slightest.

  • @lianaxsickk you know something YOU SUCK

  • @troguester herpderp

  • love the lyrics xfunkologyx!!!

  • going from left to right in the picture, could someone tell me their names and what they play?

  • @Wolfin44 i only know that 3rd from the left is lead vocals and rhythm guitar. i think fourth from left is on the drums - not sure.

  • @Wolfin44

    Edwin Congreave (Keyboard)

    Jack Bevan (Drums) Yannis Philippakis (Vocals and guitar)

    Jimmy Smith (Guitar)

    Walter Gervers (Bass)

  • @ralphdrumslikefab What kind of name is Yannis Philippakis? That's not an insult btw.... I'm just curious about the origin of a name like that.

  • idk i just found his name dont know were its originated from, sorry .

    hes english thats all i know hahaha

  • @ralphdrumslikefab Haha it's cool.

  • So awesome!! One of the most talented bands in the UK, 'Let's swim, let's swim, let's swim this off.' Just genius.

  • Great music, great band, great song...

  • great!!!*****´

  • love that soooooo much! the best ever!!! ♥

  • foals must kick ass live big time

  • listening to this stuff´s like being stoned :D

    awesome

  • actually you can get an euphoric high from listening to really anything thought arouses brainwave patterns...especially if the music makes u feel like dancing, (p.s. sorry if I seem snobby,like a know it all, or a grammatical arse-hole)

  • @mrredskater09 - Don't worry, you're not a "grammatical arse-hole" - you're too bad at grammar to be one.

  • thank u rotflol

  • snap lol

  • thats actually kind of what they were going for.

    The album is porous, says Yannis. We allowed ourselves to have a dialogue with the influences and people around us. You can pretty much hear us smoking weed on it and people walking in and out of the studio. Its a document of the time and its the truest record we could have made.

  • I have that picture on my wall at home. :) Yannis is such a cutie. x

  • this is fuckinkijg greaaat~!

  • awesome awesome awesome.

  • thats music i never heard...thx for upload...

  • Yeah, I love it.

  • when it kicks in at 2:40.magical

  • i preffer the demo vertion from 2006

  • Same with the Hummer Demo

  • AMAAAZINGGG

  • hes voice reminds me Mr robert smith or its only me?

  • at 1:50 there are some notes which are distinctly reminiscent of The Cures' - A Forest song.

  • i thought the same when i first listened to this :D

  • i just got violent diarrhoea after listening to this. i fucking love it!

  • @123JPIreland The song or the diarrhoea? ;)

  • WICKED song :D:D:D x
