  • this song is just SO relaxing :)

  • Amazing song by an awesome band!! (Should check out my song "Abide" much different then this, but id love to hear what ya think!)

  • Favorite song by far. it makes me calm down and cheer up no matter how im feeling that day

  • best song off the album.

  • why is flow in my album 7:44 mins long? o-0

  • @XIOIAN cause you have hit repeat

  • @XIOIAN on the album the song includes the acoustic version of before my eyes ;)

  • @XIOIAN because i think it has the acoustic version of right before my eyes after flow.

  • i got to see this live on new years eve. one of the sickest things ive ever seen!!!!!!!!

  • haha i love this song!

  • matt used to be in the african blackmarket he captured a elephant there.. bam !! thats how he got the name

  • @convicted it really doesn't. In interviews Matt has said that they got the name cage the elephant because a crazy man ran up to them and started rambling on about how they had to cage an elephant. so no its not about an elephant named cage its about a crazy man's crazy talk

  • @frogboss13 They also have said it came up in a conversation about life, and a box of cereal had a connect-the-dots on the back that made you draw a cage around an elephant, an that one of them was eating alphabet soup, and Cage the Elephant spelled out in the bottom of the bowl, and one of them had a dream about it. They come up with a new name origin every interview

  • @frogboss13 nope

  • @convictded Similar to the whole band names topic, The Black Keys got their name from a schizophrenic who said they were like the black keys of a piano, the sharps and flats. It was his way of saying they were slightly different in an almost wrong sort of way and if you ask me he was kind of accurate. Funny thing is, he'd use it in all sorts of different contexts. Like, " Go get me a two liter of mountain Dew and a pack of smokes or you're the Black Keys." I think Pat Karney said that exactly.

  • @frogboss13 yeah thats what i heard on kroq but idk how they really got there name.

  • @convictded no it doesn't

  • @frogboss13 yes it does

  • cage the elephant means "cage" the elephant, its an elephant named cage hahah just found that out

  • Checkout Carrion by Fall Through iris on itunes or amazon.com track features Phil Taylor of Future leaders of the world, Rocky Gray & John LeCompt formerly of Evanescence

  • This song is amazing <3

  • They SHould make more songs like this...

  • @pianofreak14, you already have Swingfly, don't take this from me too...

  • If CTE ever comes to Sweden... I'll die <3

  • <3 this song

  • my friend killed himself last night, this song is not helping me

  • Not a lot of play but this is music that other musicians,bands,groups listen to and wish it was their "baby" these guys got good taste and class act and this is kind of song that will grow eponentially on people over time

  • flow is chill

  • Two people don't go with the flow =\

  • looov it

  • This song......Is truly indescribable. Cage the elephant....I love you

  • Love you Ahna <3

    

  • the yelling in the back is very pink floyd-the wall'ish which i love. and then u got the backwards guitar fill in thats very john frusciante'ish. these guys know what to do with their knowledge of music :D its like they put all the perfect sounds together and re-created them

  • @jkkdf44 Hmm, I personally found these guys to remind me of Modest Mouse quite a bit. Their instruments and vocals have a certain...chaotic melody at times.

  • @jkkdf44 if anybody argues with your comment...may god help them. your dead on man!

  • @jkkdf44 when is the backwards guitar fill

  • this is what drugs SOUND like.

  • @fatesmagic LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Why is it only showing my views?

  • @sk8forlife97100

    why is everyone still saying that retarded phrase?

  • @PajamaRobot Because being the same as everybody else is fun! :(

  • @sk8forlife97100 so you've been listening to it for 7 months straight without stopping? ;)

  • @fifster56101 Actually I stopped once to hunt down the dislikers and threaten their lives...

  • @sk8forlife97100 Tell me about it. All of the cage the elephant videos are doing the same thing

  • @RaxorTheHaxor Nice

  • @sk8forlife97100 oh my god, you might be the most origional person on youtube!! i have NEVER heard that in my life!!! props to you sir -_-

  • @pickleweazle141 Indubitably! I congratulate you on having the "best" sarcasm on youtube! :D

  • soo chill

    

  • sort of a filler track. not one of the better songs on the album.

  • ITs MY BIRTHDAY LOL!!!!

  • @jazzibabi00002

    thank you .... happy birthday

  • I was on their tour bus when they came to Aberdeen Scotland and I went with a friend to buy them something from a man. It wasn't weed, it was er....coffee. Honest :)

  • All of their songs are so addicting. Not just the meaningful lyrics, but also the music (instrumental), so memorizing.

  • The beat and some of the guitar parts are very similar to Kings of Leon's song Knocked Up. I really love both of these songs! Keep it up guys. =)

  • reminds me of mumford for some reason

  • @porchchimp94 i think its the bass drum is constant like in all mumford songs

  • Saw them in SC, amazing truly breath taking. I got a shirt signed by Matt also! He has such a wild stage performance and makes the way you hear their music so much better. CTE<3

  • I cried when i couldn't see them.

    :'(

  • ive never wanted to see a band live in concert so much in my life

  • Saw them at House of Blues, 5/23/11. Fucking awesome show.

  • I think im to young for the molson ampitheatre :( I cant go see them TT^TT

  • softly trampled?

  • Anyone know if they're coming to Ireland? :(

  • Cannot stop listening to this song

  • i swa them on pinkpop best fucking performance ever seen. they where so full of energy and they transferred that energy derectly to the crow. i was on the front to the point i could almost touch him

  • This song is beautiful... I always use it to cool down, literally just go with the flow!

  • my brother went and took a picture with him.......lucky

  • @PGROSYE02 was that in eugen OR?

  • Comment removed

  • i saw them LIVE!!! :D they fuckn were fuckn amazing!!!!!

  • come 2 ireland boys :)

  • i looked it up i couldnt find it

  • THEY MADE A NEW MUSIC VIDEO!!!!!

    AROUND MY HEAD! for those who dont know already!!

    look up the official one tho!

  • met matt at weenie roast...

    what a great guy haha

  • I was hoping the remix to right before my eyes would be in here. whatever :P

  • cage the elephant is pretty cool, but are there any other songs liike Ain't Rest for the Wicked, or In One Ear?

  • @ultramegaAOK You're not even a fan of them are you? Because those are the 2 most famous. -_-

    Anyway, try Around My Head, 11 Japanese Buffalo, Aberdeen, Tiny Little Robots, and Judas. Just to name some.

  • @ultramegaAOK Back Against the Wall, Tiny Little Robots, Lotus (best song on their first album), James Brown, Judas, Around My Head, Aberdeen, Shake me Down... all of their songs are amazing.

    Hell, Ain't No Rest for the Wicked is probably their worst. (It's incredible live, not so much on album)

  • Honestly a lot of CTEs music nearly brings a tear to my eye. Especially Shake Me Down.

  • @WooT885 this song makes me bawl!

  • This is fucking MAGICAL liveeee!!!!

  • learned how to play this on guitar and im sooo happy i did..

    this song makes me cry I LOVE THEM :)

  • I get to see them this Friday in Columbia, SC!!!!

  • @MissMoneyPenny12 I was there too.... it was epic wasnt it?

  • what is the sort of muffled/distorted shouting in the back end of the song? any written lyrics for that?

  • awesome song but it kinda makes me sad

  • iv watched this AT least 100000000000000000000000000000­0000000 times today

  • I accidentally clicked something while watching which switched the page and stopped the song. At first I was angry then I was happy 'cause it meant I had to re-start the song :D

  • @moondra10 haha that's funny! still cage the elephant is the bomb

  • why isnt this song more popular off their album, it took me way too long to find this

  • saw them in dallas in 2009. thats how i found out about them, so i couldnt appriciate their awesomeness at the time :/

  • This song makes me have awesome dreams

  • Had a chance to meet the lead singer Matt after their show in Asheville, such a cool guy. They sang this song at the show, and it was the one moment he was stationary the whole time except when he collapsed in exhaustion at the end of the concert. Such a sick show.

  • One of thier top songs!

  • Comment removed

  • This is possibly the most calming song ever created.
