[purplegya]

CBC radio is the bomb! without it i wouldn't have heard this song! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this band. Sad i just missed you guys in London.

[thesavinggraceful]

I just heard this on Vinyl Cafe and stayed in the car a little longer even after I got home so I could hear the rest & who it was by. c;

[antoniodimechio]

i wish this song were longer so i would not have to keep replaying it!



[BellasDarkFantasy]

[forestcitylovers]

[megMURDERSCENE]

@forestcitylovers

i looked up some stuff about the venue... apparently it used to be opened and caled alex p. keaton, but it was closed. it's the coate of arms now. you guys may want to look into that? im not sure though. theres no website or info or anywhere to buy tickets! if you guys end up needing a new venue i know alot of promoters in london, let me know!

[kaybeeeee]

@megMURDERSCENE mm i emailed our label about it. it's for sure the venue we're playing at, the first show is FCL with Bruce Peninsula. I am finding out the details for ya!

[Jessica2277]

Hi! A friend of mine sent me a link to your song last week and I have to say I'm hooked. I was hoping to cover it, but can't find the tabs/chords anywhere, hope you can help me out! Cheers, Jessica. :]

[megMURDERSCENE]

@forestcitylovers thanks! i'm excited too. and i've never even heard of the venue that's listed to be honest :/ but i'll keep looking. see you then! :)

[forestcitylovers]

@megMURDERSCENE it's a new venue, we're the first show there!!

[megMURDERSCENE]

@forestcitylovers do you possibly know where i could purchas tickets for the london show? i looked around facebook and the web a bit but didnt turn up much. this would make an amazing birthday present for my boyfriend, let me know! :) thanks a bunch.

[forestcitylovers]

@megMURDERSCENE super excited you're coming! As far as I know tickets are just available at the door, but I could be wrong. Did you try phoning the venue and asking? Sorry I couldn't help more, I am not too sure about it.

congratulations on being on one of the few bands I have ever seen use the subjunctive properly, everyone else would say "If I was a tree". goddamn them.

[RATM4LYFE]

Just great. Am now going to listen to more!

[mysticalpaladin]

Your amazing!

[administramation]

You guys and Michigan would go together soooo well.

[MrGhostify]

@administramation i wnt them to come to usa too

[administramation]

@MrGhostify Well yeah, they'll come here, rest assured. :)

And I really love how when it starts off, the people insanely rush over to Kat. I would if I saw/heard her singing.

[coaxkecable]

Gonna tell a story here..

So Somehow I acquired this song and..

I had to drive for about 2 hours to a friends house, and I was tired when I started driving, but after listening to this song on repeat, I had completely woken up and was just in a happy mood the entire time I was at my friends house.

Then I had to leave my friends house at 3 in the morning, and I listened to this song the entire way back, as well. Kept me awake on the road.

This song is FREAKING amazing, and and.. I love it.

[MrGhostify]

@coaxkecable i love your story! :D

[Dudeman258111]

Great song, cheers from NC, USA.

[mcdoh1902]

love this song to death.

[arcadefire4life]

She's so pretty! :D This is beautiful...

[changtuber]

Beautiful! I love Dufferin Grove... going there today for the farmers' market :)

Thanks for posting and all the best!

[HerschelMatthews]

the video with the tune is perfect.

Simple, graceful, Very nice.

Love the visuals....

[ArmyAngel7]

more than like it :)

[forestcitylovers]

Thank you guys, really appreciate that you're watching! xo

[turkinator420]

@forestcitylovers-Yellowknife or west coast this summer?

[forestcitylovers]

@turkinator420 west coast yes! Yellowknife - we wish :( check our website for dates xo

[forestcitylovers]

@turkinator420 west coast!

[coaxkecable]

@turkinator420 west coast! sanfransisco!

[HerschelMatthews]

They remind me of Edie Bricknell & the New Bohemians.

[HerschelMatthews]

Excellent.

Kat is cute in this.

Could someone list the lyrics?

Maybe you, Kat?

Hard to understand, especially the "chorus".

thanks.

I think you will be stars.. great band.

[MrGhostify]

@HerschelMatthews this is what the lyrics are for the chorus from what i can understand:

"uproot me from the ground and plant me somewhere i belong

in the winter when my limbs are so bare"

[HerschelMatthews]

@MrGhostify thank you, it's obvious now with your help.

Some earlier lines are eluding me as well.

Get well Kat.

[noritacochicha]

i like it :)

[noritacochicha]

i like it :)

[ciao614]

me thinks ashton liked the view too...lol

[SuperWrighteous]

@ciao614 it's a good one ;)

[NorthbyEastWest]

Everyone who is finding the Forest City Lovers for the first time today because Ashton Kutcher sent you - listen to their other songs and follow them on Twitter at @forestcitylovrs - they are an amazing band with a new album coming in June you will love them.

[MrGhostify]

gr8 2 c more support for this band

[TheJessthebess]

Yay Forest City Lovers!! <3 Glad you are getting mad support. Can't wait to catch you in concert

[twoscoopsunday]

omg so glad ashton likes this. what a catchy song! such a pretty voice! thank you, i love it.

[platoboy]

Ashton this girl is tone deaf. She is singing flat. this video is corny as well. I've always said, if you want people to leave your house, break out your record collection!

[SuperWrighteous]

@platoboy i guess you didn't know but vinyl has had a resurgence. a lot of people (and even young people at that) have their friends over to just listen to records. why would i leave if someone brought out their record collection? i would stay and think it was way cool.

[itsmeLaraB]

i love this song! its so chilled...

and so does ashton kutcher btw ;) via twitter!

[itsmeLaraB]

[bookworm1124]

[SuperWrighteous]

Really really amazing song. In my head for days since hearing it on CBC online. I secretly wish I was Canadian so I could drink the secret talent water.

[ohlookitsallie]

I love this, new favourite song.

<3

[somesecret]

[TheJessthebess]

This song is SOOO good. Soundtrack to my winter!!

[AncientItalianSecret]

If I were a tree, I would go on a killing spree. Cause come on, who would suspect a tree?

[TheJessthebess]

@AncientItalianSecret oh that's interesting...
