Bowerbirds - In Our Talons - A Take Away Show

[Azatis]

This clearly shows that you dont need extraordinary ASS , looks , TITS , voice , STUDIO , 100 musicians play for you and 100 dancers around ...to actually be GREAT.

Kudos to this band. Those were 4 amazing minutes. Now lets replay.

[MrJrod582]

Its a song of natural beauty

I find it ironic they played it in such an ugly city

Or maybe its the message they want people to get

[cityofwhat]

@MrJrod582 you're an ugly city.

[qac1pitt]

So fucking catchy.

[finlaydragonslayer]

These kids are el coolio.... Hope they come to Denver this summer

[realbuenoreal]

her voice its super nice!

[2332aloha]

got to see them play this song two or three years ago at a tiny place in asheville, they are incredible.

[sleakitweasel]

Check the guy at 2:17

Not a peep or shadow of a reaction from him. My guess is that he is peaking on some experimental drug and is so overcome by some other (internal) awesomeness that he has to hold on to that post for dear life and completely misses their approach.

What must be going on inside his head. Phew!

[flipalha]

@sleakitweasel HAHAHAH nice pointing

[Omgberto]

I would be forced to follow them around, singing along.

[TheDayWeAwake]

where are they keeping their mics?

[greenjester411]

I love this song, this band, this video (and the stopmotion), and this message

Goosebumps... :)

[kladivous]

OK. I can settle all of the argument happening here. GO TO THE TAKE AWAY SHOW's website. It explains everything about how they record these videos. THIS IS A LIVE PERFORMANCE. ALL OF THE BAND MEMBERS ARE WEARING MICROPHONES. THE GIRL FOLLOWING IS NOT RECORDING THE BAND. SHE IS RECORDING THE STREETS. THERE IS NO POINT IN DISCUSSING IT ANY FURTHER. THIS IS STRAIGHT FROM THE SOURCE. ALSO THE SITE HAS ALL OF THESE VIDEOS AND MORE TO DOWNLOAD.

[TMoNeE98]

Anyone who actually believes they are singing in that video is an idiot.

[fallenkingdan]

What do you mean? If you look carefully you can see the girl at the back is holding a microphone/recorder and it picks up the road traffic

[wafflecopter08]

@tmone98- your an idiot. the girl in back is recording the audio track and the camera man is taking the video. they just added them together

[TMoNeE98]

Right, and magically you can hear them perfectly, but all the surrounding noise barely at all, even when the girl holding the tiny little recording mic is falling out of the picture. The true sound is editted over the top of the real recording. They are excellent, but that video is doctored.

[TMoNeE98]

Also, a perfect example is at :50 when the girl HOLDING the mic is having a conversation with a guy that magically you can't hear, but can hear them singing just fine.  Idiots.

[kladivous]

I read your reply and I totally agreed with you. but after about my 10th time watching this I noticed that you can in fact faintly hear the girl talking. I didn't hear it until I was listening with a studio monitor but it is there. I am going to extract the audio from this and see if I can process it and figure out what she is saying.

[goldsunlight]

@TMoNeE98 You can see her turn her mic back on.

[currentGypsy]

@TMoNeE98 her mic could have been muted at that time of the video when they edited it...

[wafflecopter08]

of course its doctored, these guys are professional...

[fnmoose]

Jeez, how talented are they. Playing while walking around and sounding that spot on? Must be the best feeling ever.

[xoneverender]

this is just fucking brilliant.

just amazing.

[ridhididi]

Incredible music Bowerbirds. :) I will walk the streets singing YOUR tune someday soon.

Thanks for making such beautiful music.

[awhitewait]

Takeaway shows always showcase the most talented bands. Bowerbirds is a prime example!

[monkmellon]

awesoe. extra awesome because they are actually performing this live with all the city sounds in the background. brilliant!

[ArcticBokito]

This is very cool!

[lighttreerulercat]

im pretty sure they played this song before that movie came out.

[Carlrayb]

What are they doing, copying the people in the movie, "Once"? I don't get it? Can someone explain? Thanks!

[jalcorta]

These impromptu so-called "take away" shows started long before "Once".

[classicrockrox]

I love this band, this song, this video, and, of course, La Blogotheque.

[elainelayabout]

comme toujours, je suis ému par la beauté qui est la blogotheque, et les bowerbirds

[xxxasleep]

[SmilingMoonBreeze]
