If only we could all be this close to each other. Every day I crave this kind of contact. Not distant, sterile "discussion" or other sterile forms of socializing, but some good old singing. If only.
@mimib4290 Keep dreaming asshole - that world is gone. You'd better get used to sterile, bureaucratic speak because it's only going to get worse. If you can't deal with it, get yourself a flux capacitor because you down't belong here.
@SuperApparition It isn't that I think this will happen. It's simply worth saying. To yearn for connection is natural, and to vocalize this need is equally so. I'm sure I will find three people to sing with one day. That will be enough.
They look so happy and quite frankly this sounds better than the album. The purity of his voice... The spoons... And a heiniken. It's absolutely bloody amazing what these guys can do with nearly nothing. I am determined to do this. Someday.
I'm quite certain that this is my favorite Takeaway show so far. The spontaneity & sheer fun the band is having just makes the video shine. :) Love it.
I really love this video... They are wonderful. I was lucky enough to see them live in Argentina last month (haven't heard them before) and they were absolutely amazing... A great surprise!!
Loved it! See, seeing performances like these: pure, raw, and genuine, they're the best. I just love how they had a good time with it and how everyone was happy. Hell, made me smile. :) Thank you LaBlogotheque for EXISTING.
This is so good and happy it literally brings me close to tears. I would KILL to be on that metro. This band is so talented and has so much heart, and seeing the closeness these guys must have and the joy in their work that makes them able to do something like this is inspiring. Oh Yeasayer, I love you.
With all the horrible rap and lady gaga and generic Creed and Nu metal sounding bands dominating the radio and television, it's nice to hear/see something like this that reminds you there is actually talent and heart left in music.
You just gotta dig a little deeper these days to find it.
This is the way you gain respect as a musician, I bet no one in that metro disliked this, although they might not even like this kind of music. This is how music should be, pure and from the heart!
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch = Mary's house in the hollow of the white hazel rapid whirlpool and the church of the red cave
man soo awesome now im not gonna hate on AC here but i have to say live yeasayer destroys animal collective and both yeasayer lablog vids were 10x better than AC but both bands are sick so who cares
@windowzombie no, i'm not saying that, of course a good voice is talent, i just mean being able to perform in such a situation isn't something anyone can do, regardless of their singing abilities, this is just ALL THE MORE proof of their talent and abilities as performers
take away show means that the artists don't just play at club or a concert hall but they take the shows with them. so they play in the subway or in a flat of a friend or something like this as you can see in the video. they also often use unusually things to perform their music which makes it even greater.
okay this may sound really...ignorant, but I don't know what a take-away show is and what is a blagotheque? I take french, but I don't recognize the word. Like a library - bibliotheque? I don't live in a big city, but this makes me want to
i dont understand why they dont do a whole album all stripped down to the bone like these songs.they are obviously geniouses at it.these guys know exactly what the fuck they are doingPERIOD
I agree. There album is too polished and perfect sounding. These videos sound amazing. I love how he's using his keys or a spoon to make the beat in the background, so simple yet awesome.
Chris Keating seems to be pissed off at Vincent Moon for some reason. Saying something about Vincent's directing and being angry with his shallowness
You know how sometimes you hear music, and you know from the very INSTANT it starts that you're going to love it indefinitely? Yeah ... that just happened to me.
Looks so much fun!
