You guys got a lot of soul for some white boys. I thought it was an old motown song. They play your song a lot now on the alternative stations here in Sacramento.
They call me a little under They see I'm upset because I'm always in stuff But I don't know what it is I'm without I guess I'm in love with always feeling down It was fully consumed With all of the petty things that I couldn't do All of the plastic all are surely worn I ain't ever show I let it go So I listen while I'm told Sit back don't think get high Take drink sit back don't think The more I listen to people I sing
The beginning of the song sounds familiar, and I've never heard this band before. I'm not going to say what it sounds like to me, but I'm wondering if anyone else notices.
i like his singing but is it me or does his face look alot like chaka the charactor that his brother jorma played..lol..now i do love me some jorma now,hes alot cuter..but they both have alot of talent.
I remember when I first heard this song on MTV when they play music videos, and I searched it on YouTube on January 2nd, and it only had 3,000 views. Now I'm watching it again, and it has 100,000 views! Congrats you guys!
It was bugging me what the beginning sounded like but it sounds exactly like "Summa Luv" by J-Hawk, a song that involves Tyler The Creator and actually has him in some verses.
Can anyone transcribe the chords for this? I just can't get enough of it... I want this song to sing me to sleep and wake me up with its lovely notes in the morning.
@closjavi. Agreed, so long as they keep making good stuff who cares. Lets face it ,it'd be nice for them to make some cash , the music biz isnt as lucrative as it once was. I will pay the 99c and download this. Support these lads. Keep it up boys your doing great .
"How many hipsters does it take to screw in a lightbulb? Some obscure number you've probably never heard of."
Why would you EVER want a great group like this to not get a bit of notoriety? Congrats to them and their success, I hope they become more popular and get a chance to bask in their success, it doesn't change the fact that they're creating GREAT MUSIC! Fuck people that say they won't be able to listen to them once they're more "mainstream", they were never true fans.
i love finding great music....but i hate when a CAR COMMERCIAL ends up bringing millions of lil kids.....cuz with millions of fans, the music gets DILUTED
i don't think i can trust people with this music... don't want the whole bloody school humming this funky little tune :P BY THE WAY, for all you brits out there- you can pre-order their 4 song album for £1.99 on itunes. comes out in the 20th, or so they say ;)))
LOVE THIS!!! And you can totally tell Danger Mouse had a hand in it... It just has *that sound*. Totally awesome. Thank you to Wendy @ Philly station "Radio 104.5" for playing this today & giving me a happy little eargasm while working. :D Can't wait to hear more from them.
Best song I've heard in a while! Where can I download. Itunes? Mediafire? Anywhere? I feel as though you guys deserve my dollar, so put this on itunes.
And no, I did not find out about this band through Lonely Planet. I saw Electric Guest's album artwork on the illustrator's website (who also designed Broken Bells's artwork) and it looked cool so I decided to check them out.
Found out about this band a couple of weeks ago. I'll get so aggravated if my friends at school find out about them through mainstream radio a few months later...
