Fleet Foxes - Blue Ridge Mountains - A Take Away Show

[TheJessmess24]

There are so many who try to make a youtube like this and fail. They are talented. This sounds great. :)

[SleepTight619]

I remind Siri to play this video every morning before I go to work. 

[loneberry7]

no one's leaving now. the drummer stays :)

[bakis2011]

@buffalowing920 they didn't split up, the drummer just left, you're being dramatic.

[buffalowing920]

RIP The band Fleet Foxes. We'll miss you all incredibely. (They didn't actually die, the band just split up)

[chrislarson15]

@buffalowing920 Show sources.

[MiquelFox]

how does this fucktard film

[azh2929]

nooo i'm so sad they split up

[jlauralee]

@azh2929 where/how did you hear they split up?

[BigTuna1994]

@jlauralee They did not, don't worry. Josh Tillman, their drummer definitely left the band to pursue a solo career, and Christian Wargo (bassist) and Casey Wescott (multi-instrumentalist) have started their own side project, but aside from Josh, they are still 100% together.

[KakiIsSoNinja]

I would've been thoroughly impressed if it was just acapella, but oh my gosh this is so gorgeous all together.

[mpaxeman]

Chills. Even on my 93rd view.

[ProkhorSeraphim]

Just love these guys <3

[AndreaVictoriaRivera]

So I just was told that Fleet Foxes was apparently nominated for a Grammy but DIDN'T win...

music legends that never won a grammy:

The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Queen, Grateful Dead, Bob Marley, The Who.....

Just to name a few.

So in conclusion, most of the people that vote for the Grammy's wouldn't know good music if it bit them in the ass. But then again what can you expect from a world where the cast of “Glee” has had more songs chart than the Beatles?...

¯\(ツ)/¯

[neonchasm]

That's how you rock a fuckin' xylophone

[ArkinAngle]

Please, please, please, please do a Sheartwater take away show! My life will be complete.

[Havethait]

@connork2399 thanks for the recomendation it was worth it, you know any more groups like these two?

[TheseBeats]

poor skyler... he never joins in with the harmonizing

[LittleMandolionMan]

@TheseBeats

Yeah I know, well sad. I bet he can sing if he really tried.bet he can grow a beard too, oneday.

I'm a mandolin player and I can't grow a beard yet :(

[wintershakers]

hello fellow fleet foxes lovers! come check out bryan yurgelis and the winter shakers! best regards to all

[watashiwanachodes]

i have watched this so many times over the last 2 yrs it makes me feel happy robin pecknold is a skillfull songwriter

[JuarezElizabeth2]

they wear such stereotypical hipster clothing

[connfow92]

@JuarezElizabeth2 ...That's your response to this? Who really gives a shit?

[sidnomis1]

@JuarezElizabeth2 if that's all you have to say, then you didn't just miss the big picture, you missed the boat, too.

[sligopub1986]

Doug MacDonald Band " Fear Of Heights"

[squooshies]

Why are there so many dislikes? This is gorgeous music. It's so pure, and full of heart.

[dannyandalexvideos]

I can't believe I've already watched this 1.7 million times

[themrcurlyjefferson]

A new Fleet Foxes Take Away Show should be created...With Vincent Moon recording. Just a thought.

[sh0cking21]

Paris just became even more beautiful

[heisssss1]

gibt es auch jemanden deutschsprachigen der diese geile band hört?? ich finde keinen :-O

[bmores8]

I'm so glad I found this band

[ilovemutemath]

tempo killers. tsk tsk.

[TheJarredMartin]

Don't go tillman

[RandomJackOfDoom]

i liek beards

[TheBeandip13]

this is depressing watching it knowing josh is now gone

[WMTSZ77]

Despite popular belief, not every member of Fleet Foxes has a beard

[skalover517]

@WMTSZ77 But you must have a beard to sing.

[thebrownchooyi]

finding gems like this on youtube at 2 in the morning >>>>>>>

[sushiismycat]

i know what that keyed instrument is but cant think of the name of it and trying desperately to explain it to someone... whatsit called?

[jellisonl]

@sushiismycat

it's a melodica!

[Goutenberg]

This band is really important for the young generation of music.

[FASVCR]

so this is the first time i watched the whole commercial before the video because it was Ron Paul... the commercial was 15 minutes O.O.....

[Zara0692]

you sure this is blue ridge mountain? doesn't sound like the other versions at all

[H3R0Carnage]

@Zara0692 the first song they're singing is 'sun giant' if thats what youre refering to

[pepsimaxtony]

I'm getting on in age but these guys are good..really good. I sometimes wonder that may overindulge at times to the detriment of the song and melodic progression. Yes they are a vocal band but dont get sucked in to deep or itll end up as barbar shop. THis is only constructive critism...Blue ridge is a good example of what I mean the opening third gets you and thereafter it looses you.

[edwinabeat]

Incredible. 

[freakystylntime]

I doubt Ill find a band I love more.

[Jclarkhawkins]

It's like I'm in Kakariko village....

[AdventureBrother]

@Jclarkhawkins haha yessss man!! Kakariko village.. that takes me back... Fleet Foxes will forever now be my Zelda music..

[Foreverthesickesthug]

@Jclarkhawkins YESSSS



[zzAddictedToMusiczz]

What do you use to edit your videos?

[LittleMandolionMan]

I don't get how they can hit those highs?! I'm 17 and can't get anywhere near those high harmonics. Talent.

[PITAtheCOLT]

@LittleMandolionMan I assume you mean their vocal ranges? It just depends on your voice range, I am 20 and can hit those. It's all a matter of where you can sing. But yes, they are talented regardless :)

[Mnnvint]

@LittleMandolionMan There is a technique for "thinning" your voice, so you get a smooth progression from the full register to the falsetto register. It takes a little practice to learn, but once you know it you won't forget how.

[alecaiton315]

oh thank god, good music is not yet toes up

[nooneuknowhere66]

How can you not like this

[dudethatstotallycool]

this is real music, not any of that justin beiber kesha crap....

[XzboyXz]

Who the hell dislikes this??

[pillowsinmypants]

@XzboyXz a bunch of dirty pirate hookers thats who

[loonyleper]

"in other news... Robin Pecknold of the band Fleet Foxes has married the sun"

[jaco93riv02]

WHERE'S THE BLACK ONE?!

[n0thininmyn0ggin]

I never realized why this song was slowly becoming my favorite off their self titled until revisiting this video and remembering discovering it 2 years ago.

My subconscious kicks ass.

[connork2399]

If you guys like fleet foxes... definately check out boy and bear, you will not regret it.

[solidheir]

@connork2399 what? Boy and Bear are ok, but not way are they even in the same league as bands like Fleet Foxes Bon Iver and Wilco just becuase they have 2/3 piece vocal harmonies doesn't make them a worthy comparison.(The main reason for this spiel is that people will DEFNITELY be dissapointed in Boy and Bear after hearing Fleet foxes other way round would work)

[connork2399]

@solidheir So making suggestions in music to people makes me the bad guy? If you don't like it i could care less! The great thing about music is that there is SO MUCH OUT THERE! Hearing a new artist is like tasting a new food. If you don't like it spit it out! But if you do, savor and eat it for a lifetime.

[connork2399]

@solidheir But then again, i would rather be having this conversation than arguing with a high school on why nicki minaj doesnt make music haha

[solidheir]

@connork2399 Indeed. I agree with everything you said, but Boy and Bear truly underwhelm me completely but Fleet foxes are just are at an emotional boling point with every song they write, its like honestly like comparing a bus to a chair. Dosen't seem fitting or necessary. But new music must be shared, easy to be sinicle. Peace happiness and no hating. Pure sunshine always.

[davidfendick]

@solidheir Another good new band are Fossil Collective - try them out.

[2big]

@davidfendick now you're talking my language! they are most excellent.

[connork2399]

@solidheir true i do agree that fleet foxes>boy and bear haha

[chrisdrakekaka]

@connork2399 Thanks for the tip bro.

[bongolese87]

@connork2399 Have you heard of Castlecomer? They're from Sydney too, so good!! I actually rate them over boy and bear, I've seen them live and they blow my mind.

[connork2399]

@bongolese87 Holy crap their harmonies send chills down my spine! thank you friend(:

[ally541]

Fleet Foxes is getting more and more popular everyday, I kinda don't want them to. I want them to be my own little band lolz :D

[19791979ist]

@ally541 HHAHHAHAH OHHH my gosh i feel the same way but with other bands as well hahah

[ally541]

His voice is so beautiful,I would do anything to see them live :D

[JADAIR37]

@ally541

i got to see them live at the Rio in Santa Cruz CA. it was one of my favorite shows. If you ever get a chance too see a show there i recommend it.

[PlasticPowder]

outta key......yeeeek.

[RunawayAlleyCat]

Their faces has Jesus written all over them!

[watashiwanachodes]

@TurkeyJones91 too many bad man too.

But it defines men. Not the childlike sissy version nowadays you consistenly see

[Byakygan]

whoa, this version is better than the studio's

[SleepTight619]

im petty sure, the cameramen was very dissy after this video

[SeanisMcgaunis]

whats the little key thing that the guy is blowing on?

[ShootingAugust]

@SeanisMcgaunis melodica

[manutdtreble7]

Good but def. not their best. they're somewhat off tempo a few times..

[333natnat]

Good stuff

[inugal321]

Q ^ Q so beautiful

[whatisahumans]

Yeah, like I'm really going to watch a 3:42 ad.

[kingdomsbythesea]

Fleet Foxes are one of those bands who just go un-noticed and do their own thing, and just blossom into something beautiful. And when they finally do explode with stardom, they're just the same.

[1a1a2a3a]

@kingdomsbythesea Go unnoticed lol? The 1.6 million views, critical acclaim and the fact they are adored by hipsters world wide suggests otherwise.

[kingdomsbythesea]

@1a1a2a3a If you had read my comment and understood what I meant, I said "when they finally do explode" thus meaning that they aren't unnoticed now. Also, just "hipsters" don't enjoy their music, it's for everyone. Call it what you want.

[Malleolust]

I live in Seattle, THE city of hipsters, & everyone loves FF. I'm just a fan who is a Kentucky-bred hillbilly too uncool to be classified as a hipster or w/e. Hipsters don't like me. :( I was introduced to FF when I lived out in the middle of nowhere in KY & I fell in love. The hints of folk-y KY bluegrass in their songs draws me like a moth to the flame! They have an alt folk edge, but still honor old styles. Tambourine, mandolin, Tennessee Flat Top Box guitars, banjo... Ahhhhh. <3

[CrimsonEmpire]

wow, so cool. I mean, they're like, in paris.... and they like, go through this door that they're not supposed to and they've got those flannel shirts on..... man they're so cool.

[1MrBlue]

Alright! You kids settle down or we'lll turn this car right around!

[notfireproofequipped]

their secret is loafers

[reydiyohed]

Naber

[DOITBIG4GOD]

i love it how everyone but the lead guitarist has beards and long hair

[L1234566789]

Fuckin' awesome

[brandonluco]

Such a nice song and video! But the comments are taking away from that :/ play nice kids and stop fighting.

[geentijdvoor]

Loved it....

[thedeerhunter5808]

@thisfake306 no I do not want to suck your tiny cock like you asked me to you I'm. Not a homosexual sorry and no I do not think this band is good at all I'm titled to my own opinion stupid hipsters think if someone doesn't like something than there automatically wrong Fuck you I just wanted to hear why people was talking about this band

[thisisfake306]

@thedeerhunter5808 You're titled?? Or do you mean the correct alternative "entitled"? You troll faggot... you wouldn't know good music if it came up and bit you in the asshole

[Chrisscott664]

@skat479 A Melodica

[hannahsprack]

my love for robin pecknold is unparalleled.

[WilliaMega88]

2:21

[WilliaMega88]

2:21

[MrZochoR]

I wish I had a beard like this!

[skat479]

what is that piano-pipe instrument called???

[cmcbride]

@skat479 It's a melodica.

[wkndr4life]

@skat479 It's a melodica. They are great! They are commonly used in dub and reggae music.

[Dashner100]

Yes... Way to comoliment a bands talent... By noticing there shoes

[DOITBIG4GOD]

i love their shoes



[coman91]

At the transition at 3:30 , is he just picking the low E string?

[gizzflow1]

who...how....could ANYONE dislike this???????????

...113 people, to even stumble upon this you'd have to either like the FF or like somethin similar, I don't ****ing get it!

[RHCPno11]

I would like this band so much more if Christian Wargo didn't seem so awkward around the rest of the band. It's distracting.

[applebug]

Those voices<3

The lead singer is a beast!!!!

[gjarredondo]

Hermoso



[thedeerhunter5808]

Stupid hipsters this music freaking sucks and so do you

[silverpopps]

@thedeerhunter5808 are you joking? what do you consider good music? im taking a shot in the dark and assuming your an unintelligent hick

[Mooch1124]

@thedeerhunter5808 you're the reason the terrorists are winning

[CurtisThorpe]

@thedeerhunter5808

You seem like a gentle loving person. :)

[gbluez]

@thedeerhunter5808 this band existed before people like you decided to change the word "hippie" back to "hipster" in order to label things they don't understand. lololol

[thisisfake306]

@thedeerhunter5808 hahahaha dude.... you're such a troll! Nice job... You probably love Fleet Foxes but you're just bored... I do it too, won't worry. You stupid motherfucker.... Why don't you suck my fucken cock, bro?

[jvthatsme]

[thisisfake306]

@TheNorthernLightslux Dude... this message was sooo gay..... I mean it was so gayyyy I'm not gonna press the like button just cuz it was so fucken gay dude...

[thisisfake306]

@TheNorthernLightslux I just want to say, after my first post, I went on your page and took notice on the fact that you guys are pretty funny and also good at music. Just get those guitars intonated and your songs will acquire a new musical dimension.

but i'm still not gonna press like just cuz im cool like that. I don't succumb to social youtube pressure of being nice. Ima fucken asshole and I like it like that so suck my dick.

[TheCasslee34]

@willwork4superpowazz sorry dude.

[LJVC91]

[ziiingerburger]

@LJVC91 I hope it wasn't your english teacher...

[MSAZgreen]

[Donnnnnnny]

@LJVC91 Awesome teacher, although she needs to brush your spelling up xD
