We Are Scientists @ David Letterman

[GreenFloyd12]

It's impossible to take Chris seriously looking like that XD

[MistertotheDuck]

I see that Chris has traded the retro 'do and 'stache for a mohawk and the Wolverine sideburns. *Sigh*

[outPut33]

I just how love how he can perfectly sing the high 'SAY THAT YOU'LL STAY' part. About 80% of singers singing live wouldn't even get close to nailing that.

[glowstickhearts]

We Are Scientists and Simon Pegg in one episode? Sweet.

[snoopyeko27]

just started to listening to them, they are great!

[JLBFilms2010]

i dont listen to these guys alot but next time they are near me, im going to a show

[pher4992]

whoever disliked this obviously has no taste in music

[rooeeez]

the new drummer just doesn't have the funk that the old one had :(

[chica1yeye]

Loooove it!!!

[markovjp]

Love these guys but honestly After Hours is not their best but I certainly appreciate the skill in the song. I know it got ridiculously popular and when I saw them in DC everyone knew the words (including me)

[lemurwolf]

Awh, I love how happy they look while performing :)

[meow9772]

did they come back on this show after the release of Barbara? someone please send me the video!

[LP5Giselle]

Someone should upload when We Are Scientists were on Conan!! ;D

[Jinahuya]

Foo Fighters during the break? :)

[TheDonut65]

this is my favorite of them playing after hours, they're awesome

[alexs1422]

This needs the acoustic guitar

[babyshambles4life]

great song great performance

[philsnk]

This is his second life isn't it? He's like 60 years old isn't he?

[JamesWorldStudios]

Does that guy at the front on the left side have a combover?

[Dandasher]

Omg...*drools*

[AvenueOfH]

this is awsome

[mattifaxmoustache]

so much more epic than their previous letterman show!

[mac8rc]

3:39, look at that love connection!

[elfioridecampo]

stunning

[ChEeRfUlDaRkNeSs]

i just discovered we are scientists tonight as well as ffejniloj :D this is probably my favorite out of their songs, the video is soo true :] hahaha, they have good humor in their videos, i love it! ^-^

[NicotinexAwesome]

letterman always has the greatest bands play, and i swear they are all underground haha

[PurplePaint88]

I <3 chris's chirt ^_^

[habitatsk8a]

hooray! max hart! hes better in here than the high speed scene tho

[mattifaxmoustache]

@habitatsk8a max doesn't tour any more because they went back to the 3 piece sound on their latest album. i miss max!

[Jegorova]

Great SONG!!!!!!

[ffejniloj]

I literally just discovered this band tonight....what a great tune!!!

[AlexSongDoesCovers]

Anyone else not diggin' the effect on Keith's guitar? I wish it sounded more like the recorded version's guitar.

[MitchelMcCormick]

keiths voice is very nice in this performance

[fatpower1124]

they need michael back on drums i dont like the new guy

[Rockafellaton]

andy burrows, razorlights ex-drummer recently officially joined the band, which is pretty cool i think...

[OliverEdwardV]

@fatpower1124 Except they've had like 15 new guys... :(

[BlackNoir]

Sidenote: Is the singer going gray?

Not being rude, just wondering if its the lighting or the hair.

[lespaulnasty31]

he's had gray in his hair for a while, it's strange but whatever

[garvito101]

not gray...

distinguished.

[BlackNoir]

Letterman APPROVES.

[blackfox51]

"where you guys from?"

they should have said they're just down the street haha

[laker2125]

I'll straight gut you son....bitch made house nigga

[coatduck]

I love we are scientists, but I like the brain thrust mastery vertion of after hours

his voice is a little weird in this one

[kraniumz]

They're fucking scientists alright. Amazing how Keith can pull off that kind of performance. Brilliant band.

oh and ricochet, you're a fucking fag for falling for that shit.

[ricochetfuzzy]

im no fag

just put it on for a laugh

[ChernobylTaco]

And if you didn't make it, you're dead.

[moosemuncher]

i like his thunderbird.

[mypocketsausage]

peggggggg

[Kahleeea]

great performance! davids reaction at the end is pretty hilarious

[Schylarherrin]

I'm impressed by how articulate the guitar is for some one who's lead singing too.

[VelvetRazz]

ohh your right at the end he just seems suprised like he didn't know how amazing they were!

[laker2125]

Its funny he knows good music if he gets excited at the end that means there good

[VelvetRazz]

I don't think Letterman realizes he has had them on the show before lol flawless where is the drummer and the pianist from?

[perky596]

the pianist is max hart and the drummer is adam aaronson i believe

[Dragonsushi]

I think this song works a lot better without the acoustic.

[loto159]

Chris has a sweet haircut lol

[zukomukomomo]

wow david letterman really loves them =)

[thbaumannn]

what ever happened t thier old drummer?

[loto159]

he left because he hated touring (pretty sure)

[garvito101]

They ate him

[sauceyboy]

dave loved it

[SMIan93]

this shits great music still

[pher4992]

i think its a known fact that we are scientists will never be the same without michael tapper.

i mean who doesnt love a guy who won beard of the year?!?

[NGMmedia]

what happened to the other drummer?

[proportaboss]

Adam aaronson is a quality drummer

[llaici1]

damn true

[19lovemusic89]

It's "After Hours"

[sunflower7202]

what song?

[GkA]

chris is the best!

[reallyrox]

HELLS YEAH

[user0name9]

i really, but really hate that drummer.

[meganHbH]

YESS,

No one will ever replace MR. tapper,!

[Goatplane]

how can you not like this drummer? his drumming is flawless. who is he?

[Dragonsushi]

I don't hate him, but Michael is better.

[hereweare23]

this was a great performance. i like them a lot more now that i know they can play live

[LittleBabyshamble]

nein

[Dogslyf]

I wasn't much of a fan before I saw them live. Very good live band. Nice job.

[Wildness744]

"wonderful rock & roll band"

letterman is such a nerd

lol

great song though

[ishkabibble0012]

OH MY GOD! is that max and adam from the high speed scene! its great to see those guys still kickin ass

[saraflondres]

i wonder why they took o long to play it on american television...

they went to england first.

[HarpoTheVillain]

Their man audience have always been in England, actually. Their sound may be transamerican, but they broke it big in the UK. They hardly ever tour in the US.

[dmmanutd]

Only proof that the British have better taste in music. Also an big example- Kings of leon

[bornatinha]

foda!!

sem mais ^^

Tiozinho pago um pau uhauhauha

[Quakers222]

great performance

you could tell the keyboardist was about to come in too early at :50 with the bg vocals

[xbillxcosbyx]

Letterman seemed genuinely impressed.

I wasn't even a fan, but this performance blew me away. Great job, dudes!

[am374]

wow very good performance!

[DaisyBell77]

amazing band and amazing live

[serpukhovien]

wow i love chris s bass

and they are such an amazing band

[Bestym8bo]

keith murray... ARGGHHHH.

great performance i love this song :D

[mattodcia]

Amazing Live stuff

[moustachers]

I admire Christopher Ian Cain.  even with the mohawk. and without the moustache.

[HarpoTheVillain]

Let's start a fan club. I call being president!

[simorulzzz]

wow it works well without the acoustic guitar
