The Kills performing "The Last Goodbye" on KCRW at SXSW

[sourgirl2005]

What kind of sorcery is this? <3

[thecrazychikz3]

I wish I was alison's microphone

[myterminalandthetrip]

How do they do such songs? Do they have a magic trick? I like this version much more than the original one!!

im a guy...i have those pants... sigh

[girlielife829]

Alison Mosshart is amazing.

[scopitoneful]

@mbob6 If you've listened to the studio album enough, you would see it's not playback.

[nuriddeenknight]

saddest thing I've ever seen, and yet i lov it

[SerterSerter]

1:50 for awkward

[leenuke21]

I feel You, Alison. The performance is f'in heartbreaking though. Actually, because of this performance I couldn't listen to this song for 3 months or so.

[My1Problem]

Cheer up VV. I love you.

[HISATdotCOM]

From start to finish this is without doubt my favourite video on Youtube at the moment - seems to get better with each play

[lorilenz]

was that supposed to sound like that or was it just a lousy recording?

[kaysee88]

@lorilenz

its intentional funeral-type music i think....

[jesffica]

She's only crying because people keep spelling her name with two "L"s or two "S"s...

[elsylovesplacebo]

<3

[MrMykaky]

So good !!!

[mexicanormexicant]

I feel a little vouyer-ish listening..its so intimate and bare, its almost embarrassing to hear yeah?

[awej]

She looks like Ian Curtis

[vojtezslav]

@awej You've probably never seen Ian

[awej]

@vojtezslav When I was writing this I actually was thinking about Control film and the actor who was starring Ian Curtis, she reminded me a bit of him.

[vojtezslav]

@awej Ok, Control awesome movie ;)

[gamerasboss]

this is amazing

[foogrrrl]

she seems so exhausted and unhappy

[lovemusicmzipse]

0:20 epic moment



[323232rob]

@lovemusicmzipse Epic ... er moment 1:50

[artistsandbox]

. . because I love you! lol

[youknowwho02]

the distorted tune sounded like sobs or something...that made my heart broken.

[guillemendia]

music.

[omgwahoo]

when i saw them do this in toronto, i had goosebumps.

[lnc0]

1 Dislike... Karen Elson?

[wolfmoon631]

AWESOME....

[Promoagent]

Lovely catchy tune I first heard on Channel four live, long time since I seen a band use backin tracks since the 80s.

[jacenK]

i know ive been listening to Alisson to much this week as i now want to dye my hair again....

[diamondsea3]

so beautiful 

[Vakebutterfly]

This song breaks my heart everytime I hear it (u)

[12biene12]

viiiiiel zu traurig dieser Song ;( aber trotzdem schön :) <3

[MrThepainters]

ok this is a true story:last year I saw alison in a festival in france right after she played with the dead weather.I was very nervous but I asked her for an autograph!she smiled at me, gave me the autograph and kissed me on the cheek!!most beautiful day of my entire life I swear!!!

[harryrocks44]

Alison and Jamie are amazing, great performance !! is she crying ?

[JeffateaSnickers]

Gopher at 1:50!

[RepublicCommando1262]

This song is about Jack White. Karen Elson (Jack Whites wife) has a song titled Cruel Summer, which is about Jack and Alisson's relationship.

[MrThepainters]

1:50 lol!!!the guy in the back!

[breakingintocars]

@MrThepainters HAHAHAH

[HeyItsHailieHay]

Wow, and I thought it was an emotional song on the actual album!

Every time I listen, the song draws me in.

'Twas a great performance.

[rich190e]

Why the hell is this video littered with references to jack white. ITS THE KILLS! vv and hotel rule here.

[RepublicCommando1262]

@rich190e Because the song is about Jack.

[tinaraqstaraneh]

WOW.

[misskitty869]

People please, Jack is with the woman he wants, Karen, not Allison. I've watched the interviews and performances wjth him and Allison, and yes she looks like a lovesick little teenager around him, giggling at everything he says, but, he married Karen, his fiery hair goddess.

[JoshuaRFox]

@misskitty869 but there is still hope.

it's got to be about jack. funny how their little affair is playing itself out in song. first there was karen elson's "cruel summer" and now this. curious to see if jack will comment in song on his solo album that i hope is coming out. im sure karen elson is a great person and all...but jack and allison are just too perfect to not be together. alas, it appears it could never be. at least we get good music out of it. heartbreak...inspiring great music since time began...

[avedic]

hmmmmm...i think this is about jack white. :o

[reinadeluz]

i feel it and i know this ...heartbroken. I'm tired of crying for him. i cant anymore...i cant

[leenuke21]

I love her.

[brirags]

WTF??? Is this a performance or real life? Blown away!!

[deaded1221]

Oh Alison you really know how to pull on my heart strings.....

[artistsandbox]

I will give you a hug alison! :)

[baseip3]

i`ll give it!!!

[Pedrinaa]

so great!! I think Alisson needs a hug

[vctrz311]

i love this song and Alisson too <3
