Kurt Vile - Runner Ups

[solidmig2007]

Great music. Thank u for sharing

I bought the album because I got to hear it here.

[raceyboy]

I'd be lying if I didn't say that Large Marge sent me.

[Soccerjunky04]

NPR baby:)

[humandaquin]

Always a hint of heartbreak..

repeat, eternal 3

[Hubahubatime]

just heard this for the first time and i love it

[yehya56]

This is so far from what i usually listen to, but its FANTASTIC!!! Thumbs up from Denmark!!! KURT FUCKING VILE!! 

[Vjyon777]

love his voice, I smoke to stay out of amnesia and kill the only link I have to get better.. I want to woirk but the pohone lines get cut, I would leave but my kids tied to a landmine,, and I am afraid I might never live that down:)

[MarcDeLarc]

thumbs up if you sing along the "YEAAAHHHH!" every time

[BandyGreensacks]

He means Runners Up. Good song, though.

[Leinadnash]

@BandyGreensacks No, "My best friends all gone but i got, runner ups yeaaaaahhhh'

[BandyGreensacks]

@Leinadnash I mean that the correct phrase is "runners up," not that the uploader posted the wrong song title.

[tashrap]

perhaps a bob dylan for this generation

[jakcha]

has that "End of the Innocence" feel. and man, if you been driving or been driven out- this will encapsulate the moment, the memory, the majesty of it all.

[jakcha]

coming 2 DC w/ Thurston Moore. how can the hemisphere survive?

[ChingstahJJ]

god, this first chorus line is one of the saddest and most beautiful lyrics I've ever heard

[woopit2011]

to me... he sounds like a male version of Lucinda Williams... same inflections.

[Bass95Liam]

Reminds me of Tom Petty

[kirstinbabesXD]

I can't begin to tell you how many times i've clicked replay

[thesaymsia]

Gotta create a new playlist titled Kurt Vile!

[twizland]

"I don't know if its real, but its how I feel".....YES!

[tsuuki]

this song flat out makes me cry every time i hear it

[Josmi81]

Amazing. Can very much hear the influence of Fleetwood Mac, Lindsay Buckingham type guitar. Great tune, just great. I challenge anyone to not sing the 'yeeeaaaaah'

[hybridbad1]

Soo Beautiful.. i set it on repeats all day all night!!

[Xxcesar1]

he makes such beautiful music

[klamoron]

i want to cry whenever i listen to this. Kurt is so beautiful.

[angievigilante]

What guitar is he playing?

[radioheadsundays]

got this poster for free ahh. going to see him in july with thurston moore, very excited!

[angievigilante]

@radioheadsundays That's going to be an incredible show! I'm jealous :)

[radioheadsundays]

@angievigilante haha i still cant believe it's hapenning!

[noneofyoucanspell]

@radioheadsundays He and Thurston were both great! You're referring to Pitchfork, right?

[pfuglnej]

I like the trarrentino reference :3

[jennynilssson]

så fantastiskt jävla bra kan lyssna på den här 1000 gånger i rad och blir ändå inte less. Kurt Vile <3

[1FreakyStyley]

@jennynilssson Kom på Roskilde! Der skal han opptre ;) Gleda meg!

[digita1ove]

this is like bob dylan that can actually write music.

ps: i love dylan

[Tedaus5]

@digita1ove it's like bob dylan that can write music, but can't sing. Swings and roundabouts...

[tmvnotmtv]

wow... my brother (my best friend) died when i was 15. its not often i find songs i can connect to so literally with about it all. i love kurts honesty in how he sees the world, so many of us feel the same way...

[asfarasisee]

@tmvnotmtv I know the feeling. My best friend killed himself a few weeks before this album came out. I fell to my knees the first time I heard that chorus.

[tmvnotmtv]

@asfarasisee damn... yeah i feel you. to quote another one of kurt's songs, "best love" :

Sometimes I lay awake at night turning cus I lost my best friend

If you had a true friend I'm sorry and you know I feel for you

Me I lost someone like a doctor so its deeper than I talk to you

It makes me feel like a part of me is dead too

[sustainpedal66]

@tmvnotmtv fuck yeah, nice post. The dude is real.

[FuckinAism]

@tmvnotmtv You should also check out Elliott Smith.

[inphanta]

This is my first time hearing this. I can't remember where I first heard about this guy, but I was curious mainly because of the silly name. I actually like I'm hearing. This is a fantastic song. Simple, yet powerful. Almost mesmerising, in fact.

[mortvc]

I am old school, ( 63 ) and I think he is a talent. reminds me of Bob Dylan when he was young.

[alphadude500]

I love how he reuses lyrics, like this has the lyrics from Red Apples, and Freeway and Beach on the Moon are the same

[cfo5n]

@alphadude500 Agreed. It's something I like about the Hold Steady too.

[mark142tru]

What an unbelievable tune. So melodic. Thumbs up for Kurt here.

[spacefreak5]

Thanks for sharing. He is amazing.

[finniganfin]

dope.
