Beirut - Mimizan

[comunidadmuffin]

Zach, I'll move for you, too.

[Berrypool001]

He needs to be more famous than he already is. He has such lovely talent<3 (unlike some of the people I hear on the radio now-a-days)

[JavidOnd]

This is beautiful. How have I never heard this before?

[sukini3]

i wish i could find his trumpet music on the internet, its the only instrument i can play :)

[gemanitactics1]

[14ATREYU]

[somemexican5]

[krishna830]

@14ATREYU If this is true thats amazing! Did you know he was a part of Beirut at the time?

[MegaraptorMD]

@14ATREYU Forgive my cynicism, but I don't believe you. It's too perfect.

[BunnyMadeOfSkittles]

That first verse flows perfectly. 

[djiana4]

ADORO em bom português :)

[tmg331]

Beruit always puts me in a great mood.

[nickacasaccio]

[ImTheVanillaGorilla]

isn't it (chorus) "and I, long for you, yes I long for you, yes I'll move for you, yes I'll move for you"? the first two don't sound like move.

[mungebob95]

[ngaio95]

[XxiLOVEPERCYxX]

[UKTraveller85]

Trully Amazing!

[dswarlus]

[cercelinho]

Grande musica

[jiniton]

DWTN is a good comp album

[dbeteta14]

NEED CHORDS!

[Nyanzaburou]

I'm unsure about all of the chords, but the two that play throughout most of the songs are g flat major and c flat major. While you're playing g flat major, you hit the two notes a flat and b flat and (this part I'm not so sure) you hit the two notes e flat and b when you are playing c flat major.

[hasteros]

@dbeteta14 Chords are : 24432x + x24442 for the verses and for the chorus : 022000 + x24442.Simple as that.I aint sure if it is 100% right but it works for me.

[misskelibelly]

This is why I'm going to one day play the accordion.

[Skyfinity]

That is exactly what I thought when I heard that opening. It's just magical! Now I need to find one.

[birdmadgirl108]

does anybody know the chords for this song?

[soudah]

OBRIGADO! OBRIGADO

[margaridasaramago]

;).

[margaridasaramago]

Lyrics (at least as discussed in the comments) are available on the video description!

[jefflovesmusic]

whats happened to jon natchez and the rest who used to tour with him?

[SofM13]

"Heels spin 'round on the floor." Of course. It's dancing.

[margaridasaramago]

good point :P

[ophlodorsh]

Is it "Wheels spin round on the floor" ?

[LaMejorEmay]

I hear:

See the lawns outside,

groomed, green lawns.

Oh, how they glow!

Years spin round on the floor...

Within dreams, we're free,

but you'd always ask for more.

[margaridasaramago]

WOW i think you just found out the blah blah blah bit :)

but i'm not sure about the "years spin round on the floor"... I mean, the lyrics are so concrete, describing day to day scenes, that something abstract like years spinning round doesn't fit too well. obviously it's just my opinion

[margaridasaramago]

can anyone help me with the lyrics please? i can't seem to find them online :)

[droctagon17]

The lines are on board

It's quiet offshore but the wind blows

The children are here

but the women just stare from the windows

See the lawns outside

blah blah blah oh they glow

And I spotted you there

curlers in hair on the telephone

[droctagon17]

And I, I'll move for you

Yes I, I'll move for you

Oh I'll move for you

Yes I'll move for you

Eels(?) spin round on the floor

as the maid sweeps dust and

leaves from the back door

my heart could be yours

within dreams

where (?) but you'll always ask for more.

[margaridasaramago]

Oh i've figured a part of it out!! he says:

"within dreams

we're free, but you'll always ask for more."

now i just have to figure out the blah blah blah bit and i'll post the lyrics on the video description :)

[Jourtneyy]

He says, HEALS spin round on the floor.

Within dreams we're free but you'd always ask for more.

As for the blablabla, I really have no idea!

[droctagon17]

I think you mean HEELS? Thanks, that makes sense.

[margaridasaramago]

heels?!

i really do think it's eels, because when eels can be fished and left out in the sun to dry. at least that's what i think...

and the blah blah blah bit, at first it sounded like "grooms and brides", but now it doesn't sound like that anymore :p

so, no, the blah blah blah part is a true mistery so far...

[margaridasaramago]

i guess it is heels... :)

[margaridasaramago]

thanks, you're a life saver :)

btw - "blah blah blah oh they glow" i laughed so hard at that part :P

[droctagon17]

Did you figure out the blah blah blah part? Do you really think he says "(Eels) spin round on the floor." If so, I wonder why he says that?

[fortzmo]

this is a amazing song. it should have more views!

[margaridasaramago]

i agree :D

but i just put it up the other day, let's give it time hehe

[margaridasaramago]

and, ten months later, 17.000 views :D

[UKTraveller85]

It should be more! :)

[grayson20k]

@margaridasaramago And 7 months later, 32000 views xD. Great song.

[Marvin42224]

@margaridasaramago and, 1 year later, 42 000 views

[mrHolum]

A Beirut song named after a city in France? Must be something new Zach is trying out. But anyways, nice song.

[Anaksoonamoon]

Beirut is the capitol of Lebanon.

[mrHolum]

Okay, Captain Obvious.

[margaridasaramago]

haha xD

[Goldez]

What about Nantes...or Marseille (My night with the prostitute form Marseille is a new song form his new album). Or even Bellerophon(form the Pompeii album)...Zach is obssesed with France.

[christy1133]

And theres cherbourg..

I think he likes france a bit.

[droctagon17]

I think he was being sarcastic, but yes, he loves France.

[kaiserschon]

yeah. he used to live in there

[arkangelorintier]

God bless you, Mr. Condon.
