The Airborne Toxic Event Performs "Sometime Around Midnight" with the Calder Quartet

[KAMUI138]

love the song. the drummer looks like ben stiller in dodgeball

[shoogie2004]

I love these guys! They always captivate me!!! I like it when they sing together to sometimes, because it shakes it some up. I think a little harmonizing would be great and really benefit all of them. they are a very talented group of musicians, so cool! I absolutely love thisband, I think they love what they do, they jive great! I wish I couldsee them in concert so bad!

[Phoenix1342689]

Mikell (singer) looks like he's having a good time.

[Titansboy1989]

wtf, no love for these guys. I like how he closes his eyes when he sings, amazing song, yet very emotional. I had a very similiar incident that is associated with this song.

[Titansboy1989]

i meant the audience.

[bhead88]

That crowd blows donkey balls.

[t1l1d1]

Great song...the letterman version is better, one singer is more simple and has more impact.

[CT42069]

one of the best songs written in the past ten years, easily.

[DiinaBerry]

i remember i Tivo'd this just cause they were on! They put on an amazing live show!

[RockTheTurnVideo]

No joke, the first ten times I heard this song I was driven to tears.

Peace Love and Vocal Harmonies

Brian

The Turn

[noebodynose]

Good rock-n-roll. I had almost given up on music after the past ten years of rap crap when I came across this song. I am sixty years old and can say this is a well crafted song. Excellent guitar riff with wired strings and an emotion that one never forgets.

[watchatalkin]

this is probably the best live performance of this song with the quartet and errthang.

except the crowd isn't into it.

[emstagansta]

He holds his guitar funny.

[nuny54]

mikel is the fucking shit! I love him.. no homo lol

[LiveLoveJasperHale]

They look good here, esp Mikel.

[THEAMETV]

he didn't hit the high note. booo.

[goarhead88]

the drummer at 1:24 is kinda funny

[nibblefroz]

love this sing but this is not really my fav version

[pikaboo01]

This was an amazing performance. I love this live version of the song.

[bluesalad]

love them! the lead singer almost seems like johnny cash the way he holds the guitar and the way he's singing at the beginning

[sammywonda]

Totally fascinated by these guys. Humility and light all over the place culminating in pure truth and beauty.

[cookin181]

Damn, these guys remind me of the 80's alternative music that I freaking love...

[snowling21]

love these guys

[croationchick96]

ohmygawd i freaking love tht song!!

[savestheray182]

great. my only complaint is i wished he screamed out the part where he was supposed to instead of sung the note falsetto

[SithLordRising]

Letterman version was better. The group singalong doesn't work for this song.

[freakofevolution]

this song sounds awesome live! I just saw the video this morning and it makes me think about my ex. She was beautiful with her light skin, her reddish brown hair, her face was flawless even when she wasn't wearing make-up. Man, this the best song I've heard all day!!!

[BETWEENTHELiNE13]

I LOVE THIS EFFING SONG!!! Yay! <3 XD

[jpanson]

I am a huge fan of some of the most beautiful music and lyrics ever written... and it painfully hard not to place this music and lyrics in the top five ever.... beautiful song... and if you don't cry... or at least well up a little.... you might not be human....... but that is a story for another day!!!!!

[prorobo]

Anna the violinist is super hot!

[MichaelSG13]

Yea!

[ImGma]

Great song! Raw emotion, powerful imagery, slow build to a crescendo. What more can you ask?

[munx1er]

Well put. . .

[yelkin2]

@munx1er What was it I put so well? Jimmy removed my comment! C'mon Jimmy. I never write negative comments so I'm surprised one would be removed....

[pedroinTemecula]

this song is sadd very sad

[Butt3rz691]

i like the girl shes really cute awesome song tho

[jimmdo]

f*****g brilliant performance !!

im so glad iv got tickets to see them this tues night in sheffield england,

xx

[myaniqued]

a less chaotic sound than Arcade Fire

[myaniqued]

this song exactly describes the feeling of seeing an ex again, when the emotions are still raw and your stomach is in knots... and there's NOTHING you can do about it.

[gonzodrummer]

2:48 incredible..... just amazing

[gutta1001]

MAN they did so good!

[theinfiniteplace]

i love this band so mucchh.

amazing life,as well.

[theinfiniteplace]

i meant live.

aha,sorry.

[travish97]

I can count the times on one hand that I have been so moved by a song. This is one of the most powerful songs I have ever heard.

[ImGma]

I heard this song for the first time on Kimmel, I had never heard of this band before. By the time the song was over I was crying my eyes out for everyone in the world who has experienced such despair. Then I fell asleep and couldnt remember the band or song name in the morning. I just now came across the video by accident on TV and had to see if it was on YouTube. Thank goodness it is.

[BryanLaVere]

The first time I heard this song was on the raido. then after a few weeks I look it up on youtube and wow, I thought the song on the raido pulled at my heart. That was nothing compared to the music video.

[cheriemflanagan]

This song touches my heart. Violin always does. Thank you Airborne Toxic Event!!

[OnWeekends0]

he should yell like he does in the video,

it would make this song ten time better

[dingaling24]

the most beautiful song of decade. the world needs more bands like this!

[3TNT3]

What about Arcade Fire?

[dingaling24]

they're really good too, but none of their songs even touch the emotional depth of this one. but it's a start

[mistymtnhop67]

i heard this song for the first time on satellite radio.....now, im a zeppelin fan.....to the bone...lol but this song is awesome!!! thanx for posting xoox :)))

[EmliiK]

This episode of Jimmy Kimmel was the first time I saw this band and heard this song.  It gave me goosebumps, and it still does. This song doesn't even need a chorus- the emotions the lead singer puts into the beautiful lyrics says it all. Amazing song <3

[DjJPINEDA]

What a Great Band!

[begreen1991]

"Somewhere they foxtrot madly." I just love this band.

[dsantam]

its bowie and iggy pop reborn

[gigglingsquirell]

ahh, i love this band!

sooo refreshing to hear something like this.

its beautifully amazing !

[Annikusa]

Most Beautiful Song EVER!

[MistaVicta17]

what an adorable little cop......

Great Song. That was wonderful live. They are gonna be huge. Love the CD. THe whole thing is great

[Tijlie]

best song ever.

awesome lyrics, great music

[nuny54]

amazing

[eSilva90]

i just came

[ivanitchinmypants]

Song = Angel & Buffy

[dancesportgirl21]

some of the best music I've heard from a new band in the past few years to make mainstream airways! love the lyrics- that man knows how to construct a story :)

[tauntedtease]

love this song my emotions are right with the rythm & words

[brock1109]

Fuck me!! by the time I see them at the leadmill in July , they will have become the scissor sisters.

[victorolden]

good

[kayateewhy]

its awesome that they sound so great Live.

[jpanson]

What I love about this song, and the Calder quarter, is that every time I see it, it has evolved (to involve more strings, I don't know why I love that so much) in such an amazing way! From the Letterman appearance, the Leno spot (hard to find now), to this one... best one yet!!!

[elvette]

love this arrangement, it's cool that they keep bringing out the Calder quartet.

btw, mikel is looking extra delicious lately, so much for turning into moby.

[ugibomb]

mikel looks like jim halpert here

[ShawnMichaelsLover4]

the lead singer is kinda cute ^^

i love this song :D

[BCKspringer]

best building-to-climax story-song ever. He didn't scream on this liver performance like he does on the recording. I love that raspy scream!

[Henryr310]

Mikel gave me his guitar pick after this performance on Kimmel last thursday.

[onewink]

Henry, you were my video-posting hero before, now you're my all-around hero fer shure!

[angelgu323]

lol just as good live,but the first five seconds of the song is rough

[fsytube]

Oh please, The Arcade Fire wish they could have written something this good. Best song of 2008 in my opinion.

[Orion9191]

Everything has happened, and will happen again.

[OceanusProcellarum]

Not too shabby fellas...:)

[alex888brain]

The Arcade Fire called they want their sound back.

[agentbong138]

gayness

[gdmswh369]

awesome

[Jackthemeat]

this could have easily come out in 1988. there is nothing new under the sun.

[Henryr310]

Amazing!

[safwan4]

second

[THAHITMAN509]

lmao!
