The Knife-One for you

[ironsyd3]

This has to be the most baked out song I've heard!!!

[redcommando1]

For some reason this song always reminds me of the changing of the seasons.

[Kainlarsen]

I only just discovered these guys, and I love them! It's like Alisha's Attic mixed with Crystal Castles and J-pop.^_^

[alberts1985]

straight hits of the white widow

[WindIove]

I love this song. Oh, and stop arguing about the music theory.

[WhiteMageMentality]

Waiiit, did I hear that right? "Then they let us go to hunt us down again" ?

Why do all the songs I like turn out to be depressing or downright creepy? D:

[WindIove]

@WhiteMageMentality LMFAO. IKR. Hahahaha xD

[101spk]

I lost this album many years ago and still dont feel right not having it in my life. But It just means I can buy this at the same time as getting their other works! Win win people.

[6HagareNo6Yumi6]

Feels like running through dungeons in Zelda :)

[onzecinq]

What makes a song good is how much you love it and not its techniquality!

[doctatu]

Great i like it...thanks

[MolteBene]

God i love this song

[SiucraRay]

god i love it too

[YourDayHasEnded]

it was done and this and that its easy---thenmake something better and ead me 2 your video----until then shut up

[Grahamintehpond]

the beats are fucking simple, its hardly done by a real drummer is it. \it is synths and layered beats...easy

[wideningeye]

its in 4/4.

at :40 they add triplets.

[neonninja5]

This is very bad quality get the real version it sounds so much better.

[bleekis]

There's an eeriness in her voice ... like this was sung to summon some kind of dark spirit from the abyss.

[rakiji]

4\4

[thesairj]

I'd like to see someone try to dance to this if they think it's in 3/4. It would be hilarious to see someone attempt it - they'd look like a fool.

Someone tell me how anyone can possibly believe it's in 3/4 when the driving bass line switches notes every 4 notes? Are you mentally ill? Basic music theory. Why are we even having this discussion?

[louiscfc93]

@thesairj coz some people cant count beats properly

[marrrien]

very cool

[iamthebirdfearme]

Strangely pretty song.

[Grahamintehpond]

the beats are obviously influenced by Crass

[rchlboyd]

outstanding

[hasselbrad]

it's 4/4 and everyone that can't keep count needs to learn how to dance. omg what's an upbeat? what's a downbeat? rookies.

[sorrowknight3]

this song is awesome i cant stop listening to it!

[loopback69]

This band is amazing!

[yamisonika]

el video esta x pero la cancion esta muy buena la verdad

[MadCircle01]

@yamisonika cual video? the knife no iso ningun video para esta



[yamisonika]

@MadCircle01 Jajajajajaja, fue una tontada, yo no puse eso, pero creo que se quien lo puso desde mi compu jajajajajajajajaja, bueno de todos modos yo no sabia que no habian hecho video :) saludos y sorry jajajajaja me da mucha risa el comment jajaja

[chemicalxeyes]

seriously...this band is fucking amazing!!!!

[cokemerry]

6/8!!!!!!!! six eight!!!

[monkeyscircus]

Everyone who said its in 3/4 was right cause its split into groups of three,

Everyone who its in 4/4 was right because those groups of three are split into groups of four

Thus, Dinks was most right for saying it was in 12/8.

I love it when everyone is right.

ps everyone who said this song is great was quite right.

[loopback69]

Ahr Ahr Ahr, it happens all the time, people all basically says the same thing but arguing about it.

[yasuakimaru]

@monkeyscircus God bless the peace maker, Monkey. ;p

[Kainlarsen]

@monkeyscircus Actually, wouldn't it be 4/4 with triplets throughout?:D

[monkeyscircus]

@Kainlarsen or 3/4 with irregular quadruplets throughout!

...or even better, really fast one beat bars!!

[lucky7monkey]

@yari234

<3

[kronjakt]

Really? Who cares!? Its a great song! =)

[Phimpan]

just lissen to the drums.. its 4/4

[IJwolf]

Will people stop arguing about the beats? It's a little retarded.

[SiucraRay]

it was cold

[pftcat1]

The sheet music is in 4/4. Problem solved.

[danceinhamburg]

2/4 like a ticking clock. it´s only 1-2 1-2 1-2

;)

[DomesticatedDanger]

Sounds like 4/4 definitely...

boom, boom, boom, boom

boom, boom, boom, boom

boom, boom, boom, boom

boom, boom, boom, boom

?

[iliketea333]

definately in 3/4. you can think of it in 4/4 because there are things that point to that like the bass line, but it makes a lot more sense to count it as 3/4

just try, count 123.123.... and then try 1234,1234....

the 123 is much more natural

[ElliotQQ2]

Im still not sure If I agree with you but we can leave it at this.

[Dinks71]

You are kinda right on both point..it is in 12/8 time. So twelve quavers to a bar in four groups of three.

[brandistocker]

If you want to split the quarter into three equal parts: that is the triplet.

it's in normal 4/4(four quarters) but that sizzy noise plays triplets. Those just triplets my friends.

Forexample: from2:25 till 2:41 the bells stop playing triplets, and starts to play new moments with a 4/4 density. its in 4/4 with lots of triplets.

[musicaljess22]

Great Track! Other good ones include 'Silent shout' 'kino' 'you make me like charity' 'heartbeats' There are too many to list. Definitely my fave band. Jag alskar The knife!

[W1tchingHour]

I was depressed for a while cuz I didn't have anything good to listen to, then I came aross the knife, and feel petter, then feel upon fever ray, and feel super fantasic!

[vertigomotel]

<3!

[iliketea333]

so cool to hear an electro song in 3/4

[ElliotQQ2]

I love this song too. But Im pretty sure it is in 4/4.

[roxamine]

I love this, its beautiful. Their style is so unique. Luff @ The Knife. <3~

[mandywarh0lsucks]

I wish I could meet The Knife. I would love to pick their brains.

[laidbackruben]
