[TMFthemissionfield]

[kep666666]

the girl i like said she loves this song...so i sang it to her twice <3

[mariya3131]

[jamesbond1066]

Its funny that they got 'summons' wrong in the lyrics, its something caleb was joking about in a home video.

[jayhoeleven]

If I was ever on "Dancing with the stars", I would salsa my ass off to Manhattan. Such an amazing song on every level.

[mossfreak7]

I heard a KOL song while I was in summer school because my teacher was playing it an I think I've finally found it. It looks like teachers are good for something.XD

[huSSh]

I have not listenened to the radio in MONTHS after hearing this song and all other KOL songs....because this is real music. The guitar solo just touches my soul when I hear it...I can't explain it

[jayhoeleven]

@huSSh I know what you mean, the song touches something in me too. The guitars are somehow so beautiful and rock at the same time.

[timeflies07]

@huSSh Me either.

[xkikischaap]

PinkPop'11 <3

[MrStraight2hell]

[giselle21able]

Why do people say there the "Western Strokes?" I dont see the resemblance at all....

[Itube2304]

This of course, remembers me of NY and Manhattan, God Bless that wonderful lighted up city. :-) "I'm gonna show this town, how to kiss these stars"

[paulmoz36]

I SAy ...... IM A HUGE FAN

OLD OR NEW STUFF  ITS ALL GOOD TO MY EARS !!!

[iamironman211]

As to the Conversation About Deep Songs.......Most Truly Deep Songs Will Make You Cry Uncontrollably....Half the Time Not Even Know Why You Are Crying Just That Something Beautiful Happens and You Break Down and Surrender to the Expe5rience of it....So Many Equate Crying With Weakness or Being Sad There Are 31 Flavors of Tears and Some of Them Are Just the Most Awesome Thing You Can Experience....Think Zeppelin Famous Quote...Her Eyes Are Cracked From Smilin All the Tears That She's Been Cryin!!

[kolfanfan]

This is really bad lyrics dude.... It's:

I'm on a hunt to kill, I'm gonna skin the hide. I yelp & scream & away i ride.... lot's more thats wrong but I'm gonna leave u with this!

[kolfanfan]

It's summons the day - not some of the day DOH!

[loveaddicted123]

love this, love how they say "i say" thnx for uploading :D

[maddison31797]

I can only imagine this song being about Manhattan, Kansas. KoL will forever be my favorite band.

[TheWinepusher]

Anybody know what that black and red picture is on their cover? I've got no clue, looks like one of those pictures psychologists show you..........

[BigRedNE]

@TheWinepusher thats the idea...a yin to a yang...a laugh now to a cry later...there would be no lefts if there were no rights.

[doodman78]

Bonerific!!!

[eileenramsey]

Am I the only 50 year old that thinks this band and this song are just ridiculously good?

[MsMisskiss123]

@eileenramsey

[blakeuro1981]

I LOVE THIS!!! ITS MY HAPPY SONG!

[xXBronzedBalletXx]

[blakeuro1981]

@xXBronzedBalletXx ??? wot u onin about? it makes me appy, if it makes U think deep then i'm glad i ain't U. lol

[xXBronzedBalletXx]

@blakeuro1981 well, blakeuro, since I have no idea what you were saying in that last comment, I am going to rephrase my first comment for you.... this song is too deep for one that makes you happy. So what kind of songs would be deep for you?

[foxhunter611]

i listern to their album when im driving and this is one of those songs that makes me smile i just find it relaxing.

[RollUpAFatOne]

best song on the album

[JonesK88K]

Best ever, this music goes to everything. Hangovers, hanging around a lazy day, party and well, just everything. They are very very skillful. I am looking forward to whatever they might or might not create in the future!!! :)

[nighthawk938]

[beatzify]

Kings of leon+Radio head+Elbow+Coldplay= the best

[unclebuzzy6508]

[DownTownBrown250]

[yellowjellybean79]

@DownTownBrown250

Gotta have it full bore and just dance your leggs off!!!

[atrickpay11]

@DownTownBrown250 that's what Andy Rautins of the Knicks said

[indiebabe05]

[Mokagu77]

[iLikeMusic23]

[ilymaxkelyerforever]

[iLikeMusic23]

whoa i did not say that. it must have been my friend when he was on mine the other day. sorryyy.

P.S. KoL kick ass (:

[lukemattar]

good to know im not the only one...

[jerodchinalover5]

dude this song almost made me cry its so damn good

[thebritgirl2]

According to Caleb himself its 'summons the day' not 'some of the day'

[calebfollowillrox09]

calebb is in my alternate realityy!!!

[CABZskate]

It's "Dont matter who you are"  (:

[keyla965]

i thought he said ' gonna show this town how to kiss these thighs'

[turb28]

I say, I say

GREAT SONG

[GiveMeKookie]

Jared is hot..

[IfDaddySaysSo]

this song needs to be on rock band

[hiccorp]

all of kings of leon's songs should be on rock band...they need to make kings of leon rockband!!!

[dakotagilbert17]

@hiccorp Fuck that idea. Not that Kings are bad, they're the best band out there but honestly rockband sucks major dick.

[jokerjakman]

@hiccorp now that i would buy

[mke15]

omg. that is the best suggestion ever!

[papigirl7]

the lyrics r wrong but this is my fave song

[DestineeSue]

this is probably my favorite of their songs. i don't really know why.

[randomrocker2]

me too. its the general vibe and niffy little bass line

[arrrrrrrica]

its i like to dance all night, it summons the day!

[emzomgnowaii]

its 'im on a hunt to kill, gonna skin the hide, i yelp and scream, and away i ride' and its 'i say' but they hold out the ay part multiple times so it just kinda sounds like i say hey but its not . :D

[Xjeanette1985x]

its...Were gonna hunt to kill, gonna skin the hide, A yelp and scream and away I ride, and every drop that spills on every plot of ground, its all for you, for what you found.

[calebfollowillrox09]

"a young man scream"

[pepperseed11]

luv this song

[jaredletoloverxx]

love the song =)

[Sasorisama21]

uh i do believe the lyrics say " were gonna hunt to kill, GONNA SKIN THE HIDE, I YELP AND SCREAM AND AWAY I RIDE"

[jaredletoloverxx]

wait i sang to it like the way u said it an i 2 believe u guys r rite x

[ILUVDANECOOK0]

isnt it 'i say,hey'?

regardless, i love this whole cd!!!!

[coolsvenja]

This song is so... beautiful...

[abvfosho]

followill ! <3

i love them

[jessicapeyton]

I think it is

I'm gonna hunt to kill

Gonna skin that hide

[scarley24]

The lyrics are a little different from what I read elsewhere:

It`s gonna take your HAND

And gonna drive you home

It`s gonna keep on keep on keep on

And then forever RUN.

- Roam? What does that mean anyways?

Please check it out.

[Ajescent]

Roam means to move around little or no real direction.

[scarley24]

Thank you. It`s also in "Use somebody". They seem to be used to that. :)

[spotzyglitch]

love his voice and his phrasing..

[Shozzdog808]

I LUV THIS SONG AND ALSO REVELRY!!!

[prinskaful]

my favourate.....................­...x

[AKfan86]

i love this video it is realli good ... and i just love kings of leon ... they are one of th greatest bands ever !!!!

[luvena07]

love it

[prettypinkno1]

i love kol so much caleb is so beautiful and some voice :D

[NUFCraig1]

why is it summons? surely they'd repeat this in the latter of this verse, but no, they say 'so we dance all night, and dance all day' would be 'so we dance all night, and summon the day'

hmmm.

[comedicgenius2]

ya..

[HotspurDeano]

Cool Song, Love his voice, found a wicked Kings of Leon shirt, Only By the Night from a shop on ebay called Bidinbay, got some ladies I want you on there as well.....Wicked shop got sum cool bands....

[sofarstupid]

and the third verse starts "I'm on a hunt to kill, gonn (gonna) skin tha hide"

[tricknsk8allday]

Good job with the lyrics, but at the start it's "I like to dance all day, SUMMONS the day". not some of the day lol

[einwolle]

You mean "I like to dance all night, SUMMONS the day"... hmm may be...i´m unsure ^^ but thank you!

[vimto4587]

dnt lie its some of the day dnt pick on faults and act like u no it all im one of their many biggest fans and know all the lyrics to all their songs including manhood ok!

[tricknsk8allday]

Dude I'm 100% sure. If you think I'm lying then watch Only By The Night Home Video Day 16, Caleb laughs about Jared and his girlfriend thinking he said "some of the day."  He even spells SUMMONS out.

[einwolle]

Ok ^^ Thank you very much for your correction ;) Now there are both versions in the video :) i just made a notice.

[ECHEVERRYMEN]

@tricknsk8allday

YOU RIGHT MEN

[bluesman332]

@tricknsk8allday when matt followill first heard it he thought it was "some of the day" hahaha.

[weeneralert91]

OMG I LOVE HIS VOICE :D:D

[blcr123]

me too!!! is so diffrerent!!

[MackOneTwo]

this is actually Manhattan not "Manhatten"...the least you could do is spell the song title correctly.

[einwolle]

Hahaha Ohhh okay..thanks ;)

[ninasas]

Dude he took the time of doing this video!!!

Be thankful...

[einwolle]

.... ;)

[blcr123]

omg by one letter!! get over it

[einwolle]

hahaha pommes ... no problem ! :)

[Jessy7290]

thank u for the lyrics =)

[einwolle]
