Amsterdam Acoustics - the XX : Crystalised

[VNVgirl]

its perfect to me. ...i like this very much ...

[ArtificialIntelNat]

Mainstream blows n it pisses me off that ppl consider them "mainstream" but now that i think about it that statement alone kinduh settles that. still. love this song. and i like how their immense audence of three just stand there awkwardly instead of clap as the cammera pans out.

[henryific]

Can you imagine walking back from a coffee shop and coming across this!

[guidolatido]

This was the best acoustic show i have ever seen!

[PushrodFantasies]

Of all of the versions of this song I have heard, this is my fav. I agree, it was worth a lost boom!

Thinking about moving to Austria from the States, would love to head up to Amsterdam and smoke some good stuff :D

[Pomaori]

i used to like these guys but they are way too mainstream . . im going to search for some more up and coming indie bands are show them off to my friends and then when they become to mainstream i stop listening ..... I repeat and repeat this process

[nlish]

@Pomaori

hahaha nice one

[JennyKravitz]

I always wanted to know what this song is really about...

[dud295]

i live in that city :D

[Mickunltd]

@dud295 Stoer

[AhornsirupIsGerman]

@dud295 and it's my favourite city, there's more to amsterdam than weed and byciclists :)

[kurtcobayn]

interesting guitar straps :p

[Juanpablojaramillo29]

jaja, so old.

[supergirlmas]

so many mistakes in those chord changes, they must be toasted.

[killersfandann]

ahhh Romy Madley Croft is so cute! ^^

[TheAcousticTraveller]

What an incredible song!!! I love this tune so much it inspired me to make my own cover of it. Wish I had some female accompaniment and another guitar, but c'est la vie! Check it out, I hope you enjoy!!!

[HannahZepplg]

Amazing. Great music.

[m01up]

[iamthescatterbrain]

Wow... They sound exactly the same as on the album. Not many artists that can do that. Love them!

[sophiebeandawson]

@diogoneves4 'those people' are the rest of the band...

[CarneDeBakunin]

Increible!! ¿Por qúe no os pasais por el norte de España?

[NicoleissoRADD]

Perfection. And that little smile towards the end killed me :')

xx

[systemofadiego]

Her voice is so damn perfect!

[madamisima]

¡Wow!

[AgentMosco]

The seemingly completely unimpressed crowd of three make me laugh!

[TreCeratopsz]

@AgentMosco the guy is there drummer and the girl on the right is the other guitarist

[nuriasolvega]

suenan increible! muy fieles al original, sería buenisimo escucharlos en vivo.

[notyorkhakis]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWW

[subidaalpony]

[diogoneves4]

WTF is wrong with those people? Why didn't they clap at the end? I even thought they were grabbing a Blunt, BUT NO! Damn potheads

[AcousticFelipe]

@diogoneves4 It's unbe - fu**ing - lievable. I would applauded my butt off!!

[GNR214]

[PaToOnS840]

[you8myshorts]

awwww theyre so cute

[maxinator3000]

team awesome needs a metronome

[selteb128]

i like how the weird hipsters watching are too cool to clap

[Grantym]

@selteb128 those are their bandmates.

[spikesonthebrain]

@selteb128 ooooo good try though.

[Subher0]

@selteb128 they don't clap because they are the other band members?

[vpittsley]

@selteb128 the "hipsters" watching are actually the other members of the band.

[nielsfreiheit]

@selteb128 too bad that the other members of the band ...

[yangu111]

YES EVERYBODY! it takes place in Amsterdam! COME DOWN WITH THE WEED!

thumbs up if you're here just for the XX! <3

[JacobH021]

Creative guitar straps and great music. 

[cahaface]

her voice <3

[chunxnhunx]

I just learned how to play this by ear since all the tabs were wrong. YAY.

[ananasmitasthma]

u don't have to smoke weed to love this music ;)

[porhmonkey]

You don't have to smoke weed to love this song. But by god it helps!

[jnl0910]

@ananasmitasthma But it doesn't hurt

[Azrael39]

@ananasmitasthma  me too

[poofyhamsters]

[BitchInc]

fucking great

[theandysixxlover]

they are brilliant

[tzeride]

I love her. her voice makes me want to cry

[DianeSkhan]

Fuck yeah amsterdam acoustics

[woodywhu66]

The river looks really nice

[VNVgirl]

i love it cause they make perfect music with no drums, no electronics , no gear really ..just two simple acoustic guitars and their own voices... and it's great to me.... real music to me ... thank you :)

[mvaigner]

@VNVgirl actually they use heavy electronics, just as drum loops but they're definitely a great band

[shakulaka]

@mvaigner

well, ofcourse they USE it, to get the perfect end result

but they don't need it.

[VNVgirl]

@mvaigner i was meaning in just this video silly ...it shows they don't need all that junk to still be amazing :)

[VNVgirl]

@mvaigner wait i was just talking about this video - i know what they do and own their cd :) i like them both ways -plugged in and acoustic. it's awesome to see them both ways! i love it! :) i haven't been this excited about a band in ..umm..eons it seems... hugs!

[IDemandMoreBeer]

Like Intro? Like Crystalised? Listen to them both here!

watch?v=eibvOkkgjj8

[danfrost313]

I love it when bands are as good live as they are in the studio, it puts up a massive middle finger to all the haters.

[L0veepanicc]

LOL I like their guitar straps

Oliver is kinda pounding too much on the guitar

BUT I LOVE EM

[OneFlewOver91]

They are sooo amazing!

[ianholliday1]

awesome!

[1dogballs]

rad. i love weed too but canny smoke it cuz i have responsibilitys. but i still ken whats good

[starbshero]

Ha. They can't sing, you say? Well alright. They barely even use their vocal chords to "sing" this song, but think about this. They're barely making any effort to sing but sound 10x better than a lot of people who say they can.

[SuperiFox]

@starbshero minimalism at it's finest.

[Xalatan84]

Fuck that car that went past them !

[lily4kat]

their voices.... love

[drakpete]

Wow. Excellent

[andybondoir18]

omg!!!!!! they r great even live lol thumps up for them some real singers!!!

[missparamount72]

acoustic is as good as studio version. j'adooooooooooore !!!

[cookiebitesdust]

i love how hes smiles at her at that part.. thats hard to do.. 

[kingtimma15]

that girl has the most amazing voice....no lie

[TheNatoriusINK]

hahaha o bet they where stoned <3

[kitnetty]

goshhh.. i really hate that 3 persons!!!!!

[dickspr]

ARGHH!!! when i watch amsterdam acoustics my desire to amsterdam in the summer grows and grows.

[kitnetty]

soooooooooooooooooooooo.... gooooooooooooodddddddddddd!!!!­!!!!!!

[SLUBBERD]

Stunning.

[Toxicmen321]

[VNVgirl]

i simply love them - makes me cry hugss

[rourkeaj]

Raw!

[DJASHLOFT]

WICKED. off to amsterdam tomorrow, woop. get another type of amsterdam sesh on.

[Toxic2142]

Miserable bastards lol

[fazz]

there was no audience, the guys there were the other band members.

[010totheteind]

The combination of their voices is sooo calming and really great :D

[Carliloofy]

holy crap, its just like the recording....they be goooood

[91FroSt91]

I absolutely love that ...

Even with acoustic, the song still has a charm of its own.

I love that so much ... I wish I could have seen that tbh xD

[mazasz69]

I love this band and weed

[ochjong]

very nice! ehm, audience? do something?

[playntradenj]

great amazing awesome and beautiful!

[TheLuky713]

Great music in a city with great Marijuana

[jhawks101]

They sound better playing live and in there studio recording. Thats how a real band should sound these days.

[theiastcowboy]

Black eyed peas, take note. That sounded better than the og version!

[Clairebear120]

WOW I love them and I love amsterdam

[velvethome]

AMAZING! how can they sound so good? And they look so down to earth! How can they not be heard in every corner of the world? Well i'm pretty far away from music scenes and i heard them. they're sound like something straight out of my head. i think i'm in love.

[indiebeards]

@velvethome down to earth?

Apparently they are a bunch of self-absorbed pricks.

[midocrimsonfate]

Haha the ending was awkward

[mcrider227]

wow i bet the rest of the band felt really useless

[JesseLucKilburn]

aaand theres the rest of the band.. awkwarddd

[Starzipan66]

wow they must be amazing live... they sound exactly like they do normally.

[MrReflus]

Amsterdam the most fantastic city in the world!!

[Renegademaster15]

If you enjoy The xx, check out 'Accept Me', an original song by me on my channel, you might be pleasantly surprised :)

[AvishaiEfrat]

if it works live then it really works

[HeyItsHailieHay]

the end of the song is by far the best with the two different verses at the same time...very nice :]

[MrSlideful]

@HeyItsHailieHay yeah the best part of the song but the song complete is fuckin really good

[HeyItsHailieHay]

@MrSlideful for sure, for sure.

[Loopcyclemusic]

Love the look and the vibe

[Rdburnzy]

Bist The XX eine grosses band im Deutschland auch ?? entschuldigung fur meinen deutsch. Ick komme aus Irland

[TheGautamaBuddha]

[Boterdoos2302]

[hannahisjokes]

@Boterdoos2302 know one says 'luv'

[se4nficko]

@hannahisjokes

And no-one spells know one like that.

[giammabellar]

a really good band in adult's disneyland!

[aerodicus]

It seems that talking shit has become quite a sport on YouTube and it's really annoying, maybe we could come up with a new site just for them and call it douche tube.

[snortinwotsits2]

@aerodicus we should soo make that

[dani97072]

81 people dont know what musics about..

[IVI9100]

[NutzerProfil]

ey übelst scheiße

[jenzemann0]

@NutzerProfil

du bist scheisse mann

[musikk9570]

BEST BAND EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



[Reint25]

I laughed so hard when they showed 'the audience' and didn't react in any way. Now I know it's the rest of the band, good humour.

[nlish]

@Reint25

same here

[razzy123456]

@coltsuperocean10

i was hoping not to fall into the cliche of making a like/dislike comment.

But 3,625 people disagree with your awful shower of plinky plonky dull cunt bullshit.

[coltsuperocean10]

I was hoping these 2 fucking talentless dull cunts would fall into the canal and drown, saving the world from another absolutely awful shower of shite and plinky plonky fuckin dull wank shite? Maybe next time you talentless dull cunts?

[filthyPriestess]

@coltsuperocean10

back to your bughouse, bastard

[coltsuperocean10]

@filthyPriestess ...whatever loser!

[HoldTheWheelAndDrive]

they look pretty stoned at the start.

its nice how they keep the depth of the song even live unplugged with motorboatnoise on crappy camera sound. i saw this version before i heard the original album version.
