Tune-Yards - Powa

[Irritatinbill]

Goosepumps everytime i hear this..howw could this possibly have any dislikes

[gravybiscuitthe1st]

Some voice that is.

[Chidoriabz12]

Dunknow about man love

[Henbot]

this is well good too

[10akaban]

holy toledo, is this ever indie sounding or what? i swear these guys were playing in my neighbours garage concert two weeks ago

[NuggiezVEVO]

why is everyone saying their age. I dont have an age, i just like good music. fuck off people

[brunoblivious]

Why have more people not listened to this yet? I can only do so much posting it on facebook every week or so.

:)

Definitely the best new song I've heard in years.

[222bijoux]

luv luv luv luv luv her. luv luv luv luv her music!

[rapolasroolzz]

Love the part from 2:35 :)

[LizzyT123]

Can't stop playing it!

[PorroFirst]

Incredible song.. makes me so happy.

[sarnsyd]

I am 59, straight, conservative etc hence my opinion may be unappreciated but, to me, tune-yards is the most creative music I've heard in several decades! Love it!

[eyetranceend]

@sarnsyd You're awesome. We need the older generation to step in and say things about new bands that make great music, because they wont call you a "hipster."

[jchawes23]

@sarnsyd I'm 61, straight progressive...my age in itself will make me underappreciated but I agree... this gives me hope. Music is always changing and this is a breath of fresh air.

[TheAharrison31]

Her voice is the reincarnation of Janis Joplin in her entirety :)

[bloodofrrreptile]

TUUUUUUUUUUUUNE

[nicyomo]

mirror mirror on the wall , can you see my face at all. i love that melody. :)

[PorroFirst]

Merrill Garbus is a genius.

[nyman1228]

I love this song. Thanks, for the mention Robert.

[kmacmuzikmafia27]

I was just listening to Jane's Addiction, and I came across their song "Chip Away." Does anybody else kinda hear her vocal stylings in them? Or am I just insane

[MorpheusBride]

@kmacmuzikmafia27 I was singing youyesyou to myself in a very noisy warehouse and midsong it just morphed into Been Caught Stealing somehow. Different songs but yeah, something in the vocals, man.

[kmacmuzikmafia27]

@MorpheusBride

Sweet I feel so validated right now haha. Made my day :D

[tokechokesmile]

[cmcdonald1337]

Her voice is juicy. And gritty. Kinda like a pear. I love it.

[jojony20]

what a passionate voice, yay for good music :)

[bobbsey1]

fell in love with the voice!! This song sounds amazing!!!

[Ujimaflipy]

ABSOLUTELY ASTOUNDING VOICE!

[krimarsca1490]

simply amazing

[rebellauniverse]

Damn, so good!

[lanerpiano]

those are some freakin epic high notes

[234dragoman]

thumbs up if you would take Merrill Garbus from behind.

[0rangekat]

sexy

[escapist11]

Wow. This song is awesome!

[robo2501]

what can i say , carnt comment ,melting trying to typeeeeeeeeeeeekjcvvvvvvvvvvkj­mfvv

[ecanuck]

Thanks for posting. Just heard them live on CBC Radio Q, fabulous live performance. They have free download of "bizness" on their web page, named after group, lower case, with a dash followed by dot com.

[ziggyziggy127]

bugger me!

[RottenDubify]

I was going to add this to my favourites but the song was already playing so I had to dance to it first. ah ow ah ow !

[jorisewout]

THIS, is really good song.

[tobykidd]

Oh good god! I heard/saw Tune Yards for the first time yesterday supporting Beirut in London, this track had an effect on me which i haven't yet quite got to grips with...They had a profound effect on our unborn child too who was jumping around in its own little amniotic dancehall. Is it just me or is there some kind of magic dust sprinkled on Merrill Garbus, perhaps as a child she fell in the potion... and then drank an extra shot before writing Powa

[pianod00d]

@tobykidd What. Hahaha...

[lordaardvark2]

@tobykidd I just subscribed to you based solely upon the eloquence of your comment on this song. "Amniotic dancehall"? You WINNNNN

[valkyr989]

@tobykidd I found myself dreaming of the music yesterday and woke up with the tune in my head. It has got a strange compelling attraction. Definitely need to see them live

[BRIfuckingANA]

Is it just me but is there a hint of Robert Plant in there as well???

[MrLexanderluther1986]

..also, for the record..when I first heard Bizness..I knew it was a chick. I don't see (well, HEAR) where she, as most say, sounds like a man. At all. Sounds like an amazingly talented female singer with a fabulous voice to me.

[MrLexanderluther1986]

almost a mix of Collective Soul, Prince, Joplin, and Green Day this song is. That's just the musical similarities, in no way am I comparing her to them. But my FAVORITE of the album, most definitely! Love her!

[AAAASMAR]

LOVE DISHIT!!

[elrynx2]

My ears are enamored with superlatives.

[DonnaMHall1]

Amazing voice--big fan now!

[lilcreature]

wow gotta love youtube, never know who you might come across on here... new favourite band!

[PetalsOfSpain]

We want to do a show with you!

[MOBFire100]

heard this before, dont know where, but i still love it.

[Fozzy757]

The New Janis Joplin.

[raveyard]

Performed live this song contains a WOW, so totaly fits.

[TheTelepathicKid]

am I the only one who loves this song, but is lukewarm on the rest of the album? Seriously this is one of the best songs of the year right now but the rest of it's like "ehhhh"

[deannabanana1983]

@TheTelepathicKid It took me a minute to get into it, but once I did I have listened to it every day all day. Stick with it.

[kyrgyzstanification]

@deannabanana1983 Me too. She's addictive.

[elrynx2]

@TheTelepathicKid

 I kind of agree with you.

[moonunitenar]

@TheTelepathicKid I think it depends on how experimental your tastes are. Personally, I think this is one of the less interesting tracks on the album. That being said, this song is still kickass!

[susiejello]

this is serously just amazing. she made a new fan outta me

[liyom1]

stop comparing her to others.... people she her own sound and she's amazing .

[ddieanna]

my new love

[deedeeiuk]

reminds me of joan armatrading. so incredibly wonderful.

[redyossarian]

A very unique and strange voice she has.

[MoJacques]

Wait. So this is a chick singing?

[cumensu]

@MoJacques, yes. When I first heard her song Bizness I thought it was a man. And this song isn't that bad, she sounds more like a woman in this song well at least the beginning. Her voice is AWESOME. Another great female singer who sounds like a man, Tracey Chapman and Imany are others.

[Ashliz4]

@cumensu Same!

[uhhguy]

@cumensu Lissie Trulie is a personal favorite of mine. Try her.

[cumensu]

@uhhguy, thanks for the suggestions! I will try her.

[TheAharrison31]

Vocals are a little like kings of leon...back when they were good

[GirlMeetsBug]

Instant classic.

[fanfcukingtastic]

Oh. My. Goodness. She's like a modern Janis Joplin with her powerful, androgynous voice. Very awesome.

[dizablah]

When it hits... my god... Just melt into the vocals of her

[zoooooopopo]

kind of reminds me of lenny kravits... in the best way possible lol

[scottieray]

her and the guy from my morning jacket...together...

[1hes2ranger]

This is great!

[NaNaNandah]

love it ,... love it ... love it!!! it puts that extra juice and spice in my day all the time... yum.. yum.. yum!!! great tune!!!!

[bigwillywizzzle]

this girl is going down as a legend some day...pure, raw, creative talent. just awesome...not just this track. she lays down some tunes

[somedaycamesuddenly9]

Probably.



[ArcticGirli]

She's brilliant! Absolutely brilliant

[agonzales1133]

[tnightwolf]

Amazing song!

[uhhguy]

There are very rare times I get shivers in songs. Only three times since I was 10. Listening to Eels for the first time, getting my first taste of blues, and getting my first taste of electronica. This has me in blankets from the shivering.

[xcristy182x]

THIS SONG! all day errday!

[GeneralMetalz]

this song gives my boner a boner

[nluckett]

Amazing song. The prince-ish breakdown at the end is just killer.

[texbex1117]

OK I felt compelled to [finally] create an account just so that I could comment on this song. Sah-woon. It is the sexiest, most honest thing I've heard in a long time. LOVE IT!!!

[yesnokeigh]

[TheJeemJeem]

[pdenz]

@technoskill pig

[meineyes]

sexiest song of 2011

[technoskill]

@meineyes It would be sexier if I didn't know what the singer looks like- great music, regardless.

[fxckingunreal]

@technoskill shut the fuck up, she's a total babe - even more so for making music like this.

[beaniegrl420]

@technoskill sucks you have no idea what sexy is :( Too bad for you, cuz that babe is HOT!!  Just oozes hotness.

[joey4track]

@meineyes hell yeah, this song is dirty

[Dan13rock]

Que louco, adorei.

Que bom que ainda existe isso!

[jodysoldman]

it seemed like such a longshot, but somehow I am falling madly in love with this band

[PepeLePue92]

[planetahead]

@PepeLePue92 it definitely is

[cheuee2002]
