  • i was the 1400th like. dubs: check em

  • good song!!!

  • my love for the yeah yeah yeahs is unfathomable..

  • Lol I feel like this song is about....Aslan from Narnia....just saying.

  • @ManyLanguagesofMe FOR NARNIA! AND FOR ASLAN!!!

  • this song is about courage and how valuable it is in anything you want to achieve. Culturally, lion represents courage, which is of course opposite of fear.

  • @mishabaikal finally somebody understands!

  • this song has got me naked booty shakin!!!!! me so horny!!!

  • Aslan's probably pissed. there some other lion impersonating him.... either that or the Yeah Yeah Yeah's have been to Narnia.... yep that's it.

  • 23 people can't afford gold lions....it's Okay.. I'll share mine

  • Banana. xx

  • I didn't even know I needed to know where the light is until i found out Gold Lion was gonna tell me. So glad he did.

  • SO much nostalgia. My god I love this song.

  • @Imptheshrimp nostalgia from five years ago? is that even long enough ago to count?

  • @JHall1294 I don't know about you, I get nostalgia from last week.

  • @Imptheshrimp haha, nice! seems legit.

  • gold lions gonna steal yo food and then fart

    gold lions gonna bite yo fanny in the dark

    gold lions gonna steal yo girl in wallmart

    gold lions gonna run away with your heart!!!!

  • sweet

  • 23 people have only a Bronze lion

    

  • 23 people were not told where the light was by the Gold Lion.

  • the gold lion represents - DMT

  • @SuperG00n nice :)

  • I'm not into chicks, but I would do naughty things to Karen O....

  • @musicistachica i am into chicks and i would definitely do naughty things to karen o

  • Her voice gives me a boner everytime.

  • This makes me wanna drive really, really, fast to the middle of nowhere with someone I love and have crazy monkey sex when we get to our destination.

  • @clothhands HAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH­AHAHAHAHAHHAHA

  • @clothhands ROFL you just brighten my day lol...I adore your animal instincts!!

  • Yeh Golden Lion. :-))) Magical share. Most enjoyable friend from the UK. :-)))) 

  • My favorite thing about the Yeah Yeah Yeahs is how Karen O is one of the greatest singers ever.

  • first song I ever heard by them 5 years ago

  • Jizm.... Jizm Is everywhere..... oh no..... it's everywhere.

  • 22 people didn't like the song.

    >_>

  • Wow this song is very acoustic compared to what I've heard from the YYYs.

  • this is there first hit for me and not there last I WILL TELL YOU THAT!

  • I uploaded an amazing live version of Gold Lion on Top of the Pops, please come check it!!!

  • This song is very good song, and would be perfect whilst at a party, or maybe cooking pasta at home.

  • Holy shit, I nostalgia'd SO HARD. This song is amazing.

  • The Gold Lion didn't show the light to 21 people.

  • @zwgrad09 those 21 people are dummies

    

  • with my love for the black keys and all, the opening few seconds reminded me instantly of their song "when the lights go out"

    love you, yeah yeah yeahs!

  • 21 people don't know where the light is

  • you can tottaly party sooooo hard to this song!

  • simply genius. They're amazing, and so is her voice.

  • Narnia?  O__o

  • This song reminds me of 2006.. I think the song itself is about Las Vegas Nevada, with the MGM "Gold Lion" Hotel being across from the Luxor where the big light is on top of the pyramid, hense "Gold Lion gonna tell me where the light is".. Then "take our hands out of control" could be the force of gambling in Vegas, you're not necessarily in control when you start winning and losing in those casinos.

  • @SexSteakSoda

    whoa thats really cool... i had no idea. that makes sense tho!

  • The gold lion is always telling me where the light is...

  • i think i just got whip lash rockin' out to this song...

  • this song makes me feel like i could kick ass

  • the gold lion did not tell 21 people where the light is

  • does this remind any one else of tegan and sara?

  • reminds me of siouxie and the banshees

  • @JuliaBokma Tegan and Sara should remind you of them.

  • Sounds like she's having an orgasm.

  • Nice~~~

  • This song would be even better if I could understand what the song meant --- Like a RHCP song...

  • @daguru324

    its about Lyles Golden syrup :D

  • I like this song

  • 20 people just pressed the dislike button by accident

  • @Deneezy1 I've actually done that before o.o

  • Kinda sounds like a Pixies song. Just a little bit.

  • @SonikLinguistik I agree.

  • 19 people... didn't really like this song, apparently.

  • i just love this song.. i swear i can listen to it over and over again and it's still sooo good!

  • DesolateLight my msn in profile! Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Gold Lion

  • Reminds me of Sheryl Crow, for whatever strange reason

  • @elginxxxman

    Not Sheryl Crow.. bite your tongue!!! Haha. More like Siouxsie Sioux if anything. But good all around.

  • @boowitz Yes, she definitely channels Siouxsie, but in just the line where she says 'Gold Lion' I hear a bit of the same sound as Soak Up The Sun, it sounds as if there's two of her. It's hard to explain!

  • @boowitz I would say more like Joan Jett, IF I'd have to compare her to anyone. But I wouldn't.

  • no no no, 18 people don't appreciate good music.

  • i think her voice is sexy

  • arguably their best song ever :D gold lion gonna tell me where the light is.....

  • Love to sing this on singstar ps2. I really get into it!

  • 15 people got eaten by the gold lion

  • @OtakusGate 1 person made a terrible, overused joke

  • @imafoolhahaha :c not me

  • fu%^ ya!!!

  • GOLD LION'S GONNA TELL ME WHERE THE LIGHT IS!

    oohhh oohhh, ooohhh ooohhh, ahh aaahhh !!!!

  • @bloodyfingers1on1 could it be that is how gods talk?

  • it makes me wannna headbang hahah

  • Love this song almost forgot bout it

  • They do make some brilliant stuff, but they're not the best live. :/

  • @Swell92 yeah, i can see how they wouldn't be that great live.. haha

  • @Swell92 ARE YOU KIDDING THEY'RE AWESOME LIVE. I ALMOST PEED MY PANTS WHEN I FIRST SAW THEM.....my huge karen o fetish might give me a biased opinion though...

  • @TheDeadEndProject I could see them being much better in a smaller venue. But at Leeds Fest i'm not sure, they were just so unlivey, maybe an off day for them i don't know. Or it could have been they came on after Vampire Weekend who are extremely lively.

  • @Swell92 REALLY? I can't imagine her not being lively...

  • The "UUH UUH" part makes me hard

  • havent heard this in almost a year lol idk exactly who the group is but dnt really care love a few of their songs

  • I fell in love with this song recently :)

  • i was singing this randomly in health class (after class) and i got to the part "i must have done a dozen each" my teacher looks up at me with a look of concern/worry but also like shock and dismay. I had a good laugh, he didn't get it.. i did.
