Foster the People 'Warrant' Live from SXSW

[MyHihi100]

I love you, Mark, Ponsi and Cubbie :D Mark at 3:36 o_o calm down dude

[dudeness88]

What is the guitar player holding up against the strings? A magnet?

[IanBondFlemming]

My fav Foster song!

[sandyzmz]

Mark Foster you are the awesomestttt

[Kittycatlurver25]

I love how mark gets so lost in the music. It's so endearing to see.

[Rainbowjellyishh]

Yes. Just. Yes.

[jovotron]

I usually listen to metal but I think your changing my tune . Love you guys so cool

[ZaneyTruesdale]

Damn it, Mark is a god!!! ♥

[obesepkers]

That crowd doesn't appreciate good music. When Foster The People played at Big Day Out at the gold coast it went off!

[TheMissbarbie77]

I love your music ♥

[InfiniteRedEye]

The first time I listened to their cd I didnt like it to much at all. After listening to it a few more times it became my most listen to album!  These guys are amazing!

[Azelf3]

Bought their album a week ago, I used to think Houdini or Pumped Up Kicks were their best songs, no idea how wrong I was, and to make it worse I didn't go to their concert and they played in my country. Fuck.

[freedom2808]

love mark f! <3

[jjadiel2011]

Finally!!!! Good Music!! Foster The People is Now one of my favorite bands!!!!

[JourneyC8]

Can anyone please check out my cover of Pumped Up Kicks? :]

[H0NEYBadGERA47]

3 pple are mannequins



[winkannie]

i think this is the first time that i've seem pontius standing up on the stage :)

[laskecup123]

oh mark, is there any instrument that you can't play? seriously

[stephlamet]

I love Mark's hair :3

[txpchronic]

Not sure how i would be doing in a concert hearing them, its not a song to jump like crazy haha

[olbarful]

Talent... That is all

[FosteriaLove]

Oh Mark. 3:30 - 3:36 lol.

[DouglasinPhily]

They grow on you. My favorite is Helena Beat - Letterman during show with Dave introducing them. "Call it what you want" on Letterman performance is very good also. What seems so cool is that the songs often seem like it is about to fall apart or it is just not going anywhere and then they pull it through and keep pushing through it and it really takes off. Pumped Up Kicks on Craig Ferguson is perfect also! Houdini is good too.

[KitsunerJP]

Dear Justin Belieber, this is music.

[CamShaft200]

This is music the way it is supposed to be played! I love the way that the lead singer switched between the drum and the piano right at the beginning!

[2930381]

coming soon i get torches the album

[krwawamary13]

nie mam dzwięku : <



[UsChicago]

Best song on the album- they're all great, but this one tops it all.

[HerosComment]

One hit wonders, they will never top Pumped up Kicks, that's the only bad thing with coming out with one of the best songs ever written in history.

[txkuntryboy]

@HerosComment I thought the same thing without having heard the whole album. Nothing could be further from the truth, the entire album is stellar.

[HerosComment]

@txkuntryboy I just have tried to listen to other songs by them and I have not heard one I could listen all the way through, its going to take another brilliant written and produced song to compare to that one. Maybe if we could drop some acid and put on the album we could find some revelation within the other songs other than "Pumped up Kicks" just a brilliant written song the writer must have related too when writing it.

[txkuntryboy]

@HerosComment I dunno, the whole album stikes a chord with me. Pumped Up Kicks is a beast though, no doubt.

[signodecain666]

It quite weird seeing a non-sweaty Mark Foster for the first time. Most of the videos I've seen of FTP, Mark looks like he's made of water.

[HerosComment]

@signodecain666 maybe if you worked a day in your life you would understand sweat too, you sound like a liberal entitled person of this country, the people bringing it down.

[GameCentralTactics]

can you see the dislike bar? neither can i!

[FosterThePeopleGirl]

@GameCentralTactics its beautiful huh? *tears up* xD

[MonseCeso]

Probably my favourite song from Torches ;)

[SuperCatLova]

wow i actually can't even see the dislike bar!?

[PaulaJonasBrothers3]

i love his vioce. <3. he sing like on album song. (: good job. ! <3.

[nyappynoodle]

Try listening to this song looking outside the window when you're standind e feel the bass coming in... I feel like i'm part of something huge and that i'm never alone

[kristinamelendez12]

i love the beat goes on everysong they made

I luv yu mark foster, mark pontious & cubbie fink!

[Blackmagikartist8]

Mark you are hot. :3

[moonmater]

dear santa, let foster the people come to amsterdam and I will never ever ask for anything again. in my life.

[Kandigalxx]

love this :)

[RikaDarknessOC]

HUURP. first song I ever heard of theirs-3 mark is adorable~

[andreasddd94]

guitar sounds so cool

[gunswardeath]

This is one of my favourite song from them and i dont know why it doesn't receive much recognition. This song deserves to be heard more

[Bfeckps]

Good song :D

[MrKittykat2012]

Omg!!! Just as fantastic as the album! All his songs are up beat and dancy! And mark is fuck hot!!! And is it true that hes married? Cuz wen they zoom in on his piano playing i dont c a ring.

[FosterXmeXpotterX]

@MrKittykat2012 Mark foster isn't married ( thank goodness ) but someone told me that cubbie was but i'm not sure

[Haruzumakii]

its been a while since i have heard an awesome American group.

[Hawkeyes907]

@Haruzumakii MGMT

[armstrongbrosband]

It seems like every Foster The People video I watch has a top comment talking about the crowd. Like "This crowd is really lame" or "This crowd really rocks". What does it matter?

[GodsmackLoverOracle]

this song reminds me of my first girlfriend in 5th grade is that bad? cause this song rocks the fucking house

[soulofthebang]

21 Century New Wave. A Blend of a Pop Sound with Dark Lyrics

[hostel202music]

♪ Got to get away

Yeah, the warrants on my head

Got to get away

They want me alive or dead ♫

[jokez112]

lol you really think that there haven't been good new music before this band?

[twilightcreational]

they are doing theyre fucking best and the crowd??? NADA.

[bassmusicmanAHS]

i need to find out where Cubbie gets his hair cut

[steveleyvaa]

I was there, most everyone was partied out from having been walking around and going to shows all day. It was a really chill show. Portugal. The Man played as well!

[ruhhshelle]

seriously... FINALLY some good music. I don't know what America was thinking circa 2000-....now. I just hope people don't start liking indie because it's the ''new thing.''

[thegamerman29]

Mark has a big mouth :O

[TheDeviousDeception]

Awesome band, just discovered them through a friend who was like "BEST BAND EVERRRRRR!" :P

[videofunfuntime]

@TheDeviousDeception SAME!!!!!

[T7ick]

im sure the crowd wasn't bad. they were just stunned from the amazingness so they didn't know how to react.

[thegamerman29]

@T7ick very true

[theivory1]

@T7ick Thats exactly right. I saw 311 in St Louis in 1992 or so and no one knew what to do.

[ArtWorms]

better than owl city

[electbassplayer24]

Foster my Boys they're amazing!............Finally Mark has come back to Austin Texas with the peoples Band!

[PrincessMashMaster]

Seeing them August 8th in Millvale. I'm so excited. <3



[theanalog808]

@PrincessMashMaster ugh. they sold out Mr Smalls. Good for them. Bad for me :(

[PrincessMashMaster]

@theanalog808 Haha yeah tell me about it. I had to get the tickets from a reseller. The originals were 15. These were 75. I had to buy two because my mom said the only way she'd take me is if I bought her ticket. Two paychecks but I love them more than anymore so I'm as happy as can be :)

[captainpoob]

@PrincessMashMaster same! and it's my birthday!

[PrincessMashMaster]

@captainpoob Sweet!

[pessimystica]

they were just here for SXSW?!?!?!? arrrrgh, why didn't i know about this? *sits in corner & cwys*

[jihadpizza]

the mix is alittle off.. the Kimmel version has a better quality.

[Probieboss]

I want to learn bass now!

[DeannaStarr43]

I NEED TO BUY THEIR ALBUM ASAP! cause i cannot go another day without having all of their amazing songs on my iPod! They are easily becoming one of my favorite bands.. :D

[apatheticempathy]

Finally, ... a decent group from the young generation. Seriously Im 46 and between Kattie Perry and Lady horse face goo gaa I almost gave up any quality "new" music.

This group is quite refreshing. Hope you kids reconize talent and fluff that will not last more than thier mere 15 minutes. Real talent is forever ~

[ngarrison44]

@apatheticempathy apparently you don't listen to music very often and prefer it to be force fed to you. Go to one festival and you'll find at least ten bands with staying power. Three words: MY MORNING JACKET. go put it on

[apatheticempathy]

@ngarrison44 yes, so sorry when you grow up, reality doesnt let you live in festival land where you can play and frolic. Enjoy your youth now when you have no real responsibilitys. Your going to miss this time and in 40 years, you'll hear this song and you'll wish you could be there again. But trust me ... you can never go back.

[AratsLife]

Their whole album is awesome. I love them!

[G0r12]

damn good...damn...

[alfonsooi92]

Come back to Spain again =)

[bpf12081974]

Best live set at SXSW! the whole album is ridiculous!! unreal!

[bpf12081974]

@bpf12081974 the best thing since arcade fire!

[Tina17L59]

I am so happy to finally have some new rock-n-rollers out there making great music for all of us to listen to. keep up the good work guys. oh yeah...thanks :o)

[The1989KID]

score one for generation y

[Domdeez100]

In Philadelphia tomorrow!!!



[epicchic]

You'd they're on ex or something. O_O

[hootenany04]

Pumped Up Kicks is a great song and all, but there are easily 5 songs on that album that trump it. This is one of them...

[matthillmatthillmatt]

pumped up kicks is a catchy tune and all, but this one blows it out of the fucking water

[daddybug101]

All I gotta say is this band's gonna be a round for a while. They got their shit together.

[dasituationjerz]

yea, i have never seen a band so multi-talented and so synced....my favorite



[ohmymissemma]

Im going to piss my pants when i see them in New Orleans

[FlaBoyRock]

Huge or not, they are good..... Love em!

[crosseyed55]

that bass is SO badass. i feel SO badass listening to it as i walk to the grocery store...

[MyLifeAsLauraah]

THIS is my favorite.

[Stabnsuch]

Saw them in Vancouver @ The Venue on May 31, 2011 - they kicked some serious ass. Great Show!

[djamesb11]

One of the best intros i've heard in a while...awesome piano chords

[MrsFrancoloveandKurt]

I wish to see them in MNL, f they're talented!!!

[daelove7]

Torches Out Today! Go Buy it & Support this Amazing Band!

[RobsHandMonkey]

[PerditionHome]

All their songs are just great fun

[xevilcookiex]

I think I have a crush on their music now. I get butterflies every time I hear this song. Can't wait for Torches to come out.

[neatborrito]

Coolest intro I've heard in a looong time.

[highmeh1760]

.Time got to get away.?

That is 2dope.

[auk13films]

Every damn song they have is a hit.

[Carbonate303]

@auk13films YES!

[ettorres1929]

These guys are gonna be HUUUUUGE!

[mguygh]

@ettorres1929 because of good song writing and a work ethic of course they will. a lot of bands now a days couldnt be seen death in a tshirt and jeans nevermind writing cool pop songs that you dont have to deep to like

[uomoitaliano8]

[driftsteve]
