I saw these guys on one of those movie award ceremonies and thought they were a cover band. Than as the show went on I found myself really getting into them and googled them. Now I am officially addicted to their music.
I went to high school with this guy. Just found out from some of my old classmates that he was in this band. I'm quite impressed: They're good. We had a lot of people in our school who became famous: Noah Wylie, Adam Goldberg, Carnie Wilson, Justin Warfield (lead singer of She Wants Revenge). I'm about to be the next one :)
@linglingis18 okay maybe i should not have been so harsh, but honestly i never knew who he was until you metion it on this song, and what i saw was horrible
They're very similar to Alphabeat too! If you like them, you will probably like Alphabeat. Just like FATT, they're a guy and girl duo, and Anders SG, they guy plays a MEAN tambourine. Plus they're both cute, just like Fitz and Noelle :)
Fitz looks like gary oldman and michael keaton had sex and magically produced a baby who than had sex with the lead singer of journey and they had a baby who than grew up to learn how to sing with his black neighbors and than learned jazz. There thats Fritz
im happy with some newer bands that are coming out, iv been looking and havent found much in the last 4,years thats prably because of x-o and techno...
I saw them yesterday at the lollapalooza channel while waiting for arctic monkeys...at first i got pissed because all i wanted was to see arctic..but then...ME GUSTA!
you know what "@bogusbong".... you're a fuckin fag!!! i bet you wouldn't know how to smoke out of a bong, if the freakin instructions fell in front of your face!!!! get a life LOSER!!! You wish you cashed a check as big as theirs!!!
there was a local festival in my town and when i asked people in my area if any good musicians were playing. The total sum of my request was "no good bands'' So needless to say I didnt go. The next day I found out Fitz&the tantrums played at the festival. I almost shit myself. They all said no one good would be playing. foolish me to trust anyones thoughts on good music. So i missed out on this beautiful group. ahhh.... its better to have loved and lost than too have never loved at all.
Saw these guys last year when they were with Maroon 5, came to Texas. Always see poeple commenting how they saw bands in concert and now i can comment that and i'm glad it was those two bands :]
PS the girl with the tamborine freakin rocks it on stage lol
I love this, I stumbled upon them by mistake, was watching VH1's top 20 countdown and moneygrabber came on and I was hooked. LOVE IT!!! This video is amazing and makes me smile.
I'm making a playlist "New Soul". It includes The Black Keys, The Heavy, Noisettes, John Legend and The Roots, and these guys. Any one out there got any good suggestions?. I love finding awesome artists
@silversummer1234 not really its just people like you that wanna get their panties in a bunch cuz i dont know somthing stupid like the name of some black chick in a band
@silversummer1234 do you know for sure that shes an african or what?! if she came from africa to america than shes and african american you fuck! so assure me she is then maybe ill give a rats ass bout her
@twitchndspazms187 The definition of African American is a black male/female living in America..... Her ancestors most likely hailed from Africa. African America does not nessicaily mean that the being HAS to of lived in Africa...
Heard of this band because my last name starts with Fitz. Then saw them on Conan. The way people find out about a band doesn't make them less of a fan, you should be happy other people are giving attention to them, would you rather them getting no recognition whatsoever?
Women should wear more dresses in society. I think they look so much better in dresses. Its nice to see a girl dressed differently than a t shirt and jeans all the time.
if it took a commerical or something to get me to such great music that i didnt knew exist, who knows how many other GREAT music like this is out there, but you dont turn on your radio to this.
I don't usually label a band as one of my favorites after hearing only a few songs.
But when I do, it's a group along the lines of Fitz and the Tantrums.
