  • this sound is killing me! best modern band.

  • Amazing live performance. Love it.

  • awesome stuff !!!!

  • NOEL GALLAGHER WOULD GIVE HIS LIFE AWAY FOR WRITIN' TUNES LIKE ANTON!

  • matt hollywood!

  • @MegaMytube99 nice try;-)

    i think its a lot of reverb, and maybe some echo...

  • is it just reverb or echo also?

  • Anyone knows which voice effects Anton is using?

  • I think this is the best live video of this (Nevetheless) on the internet. Crowd feedback is cool. Song is so awesome. I often jump around to see the other vids of this song. Fave indeed.

  • i don' t know what it is. but it's so fucking amazing

  • This is so great, i cant describe! The last time when a musician changed my life, it was Bowie!

    This time its Anton!!

    GO On!

  • Eddy James is so right!

    BJM rocks my world!

    Moods Montana

  • WHO THE FUCK CARES HOW WELL ANTON IS HUNG?!?!? YOU STUPID BITCH!!! he is the best fuckin musician alive right now and you have the nerve to speak like that? FUCK YOU your pea sized brain only allows you to think of dicks when the best music you have ever heard is being played to you....it should be a federal law that you can no longer listen to BJM after a retard comment like that

  • the rythem guy looks like naboo

  • @VictorC53 jaja si es naboo de the mighty boosh jajaj excelente serie

  • Anton is poorly hung but he can sure jam!

  • Rocking, beautiful, gentle, slow, fast.. this is brilliant.

  • The best band ever!

    nothing can compare to this!

  • anton changes into an entirely different person when he performs 

  • Wow the French appreciate good music!

  • Its never the same or as good without Joel.

  • I looooove it

  • i listen again and again and again and i just dont get bored a special preformance i hope see them one day

  • High water mark for BJM?

  • PLEASE PLAY BY THE RULEEEEEEES!

  • Please play by the rules!

  • God damned I fuking love this song ans this band...

  • classic...

  • loves it!

  • VOX ULTRASONIC

  • This song rips me up every time I hear it. Especially this performance. It's loose but yet tight at the same time, if that makes sense. I think Anton runs the ship to be as such and has such a great line-up. I get my first chance to see BJM perform in about 3 weeks and I am pretty damn happy about it. Plus, the new album blows me away.

  • @julieswahn Totally agree with you!! Amazing performance. It all seems at a perfect tiing yet so laid back and indifferent...

  • best song ever!

  • What do you guys think of the Dandys!!??

    <3 :D!

  • @Malinm Shit

  • Your ass is not your elbow.

  • Right, then go listen to you're mainstream, half-baked for profit, dumbed down, idiot proof pop music then!

  • Cool!!!!!!!!

  • lovelovelove

  • amazing band, seeing them live for the third time in may!

  • When I saw them live they played Telegram and this song back to back.... it was crazy awesome. The last 30 minutes of the set was pure feed back and beats.

  • Great performance of a Great Song!!!

  • where can i get there albums?

  • @bonez1888

    Look out an album called Tepid Peppermind Wonderland: A Retrospective, it's a double CD best of.

  • @scottgh1979

    Thats Peppermint not peppermind! lol

  • my favorite song from this band <3 love it

  • Wow

  • anton's vocal delivery is a lot different to that on the studio recording, and not just because this is a live performance, but I really like it.

  • Not only that, but he is also able to produce a different vocal sound from song to song as well. That makes the BJM sound something that is continually fresh and interesting to me. I'm rather obsessed with this song and the performance itself (obviously). It has everything something fantastic should have.

  • Ahh you are so lucky to have seen BJM. I believe Anton is in the best health of his life right now so it must have really been something huge, as you say. I'mr really going to try for next year, if he tours.

  • Anton is a genius....even people who hate him respect him...that's something....The dig! doc is awesome...go watch it....

  • Anton you sexy motherfucker. Solid.

  • what guitar is Anton using??

  • Some old 60's vox

  • dont get no better than this, cheers anton, my boys a fan already n he's 6. goodboy lol . cudnt live without ur tunes .

  • Definition of what psyche music is

  • i was there...

  • Worlds Greatest Drummer!

  • He is indeed exceptional.

  • Comment removed

  • @liam13coins What?? have you only heard one drummer?

  • frankie looks like a girl i liked in college

  • loool

  • love the bjm, does anyone think this sounds a bit like the echo and the bunnymen, the killing moon?

  • ha i was kinda just thinking that actually. They are amazing live, Anton is a musical genius

  • your such a wanker dermo1987

  • just fucking amazing.

    watched the doc about BJM last night on Hulu....wow

  • Saw them the other night. It was an awesome show! Totally worth it!

  • hate you lol.. I'd sure love to see this band. I'm past the festival stuff, though.. what type venue was it? Was Anton *on* that night? This performance is my favorite of all for some reasong (this song/video). He seems really vulnerable.

  • The venue was pretty small. It was called The Clubhouse. It's in Tempe, AZ. All of the original members were there. HaHa! And they of course played this song at the show I went to. And it wasn't a festival or anything. There was an opening band, then BJM! :) :) :)

  • Sounds fantastic. I hope they come to Europe this summer.. I'd love to see them if they do a smaller venue like the one you saw. Glad you enjoyed it!

  • may your words become gold (as the saying in my country goes)

    if they come to EU this year, i'm the happiest person on earth

  • Comment removed

  • Great observation, I was thinking the same. He looks indeed vulnerable.

  • He may be controversial but he is such a good singer/writer/composer. Fuck mainstream music/corporations, they popute the airwaves with pointless/degrading music. I love this tune.

  • you cant not like the rants.jesus.

  • marslove129: sometimes people choose controversial subjects to open up a dialogue about an event that was distorted by the main stream media, thus giving the public an incorrect perspective on that event. . .Forgive me, but your question is so unlettered that it makes you seem like the one that is "just horrible." Good luck in awaking from your zombie like state. . .

  • ...open your fucking mind...

  • I would say Seattle crowds are much like the French too, good energy. Cept we shower and brush are teeth.

  • Comment removed

  • Except you're an ignorant prick who probably has no idea about France and its people...

  • Pure synergy between the crowd and band. The French are so giving and without ego. Artists have found refuge and comfort in France for ages. The best live moment of BJM I have heard. Wisdom and experience come to fruition at this moment in musical history. So powerful after the solo when it comes back into the verse from chorus. Put your heart into music.

  • this is a MASSSSSSSSSAAAAAAAACRE!!!!

  • over 2 years later me thinks this still the best bjm performance and video on you-tupe hands down!! "fill your ears"~*

  • great music with great substance.

  • Ok, forgive me for this: Anton looks like some 62 year-old dude who lives out in the country, 17 broken down old cars littering his "estate," picking off kitties with a bb-gun, swilling beer, but HE IS SO EFFING SEXY. Nobody sings like Anton does.. I love everything about him except those poli-rant mails he sends out. That said, I'm listening to this again right now.

  • haha

  • these guys need more credit, alottt more

  • this band owns

  • music to touch your heart..and to soundtack it..'forever'...

  • They dont sound like anybody..They created this sound. Anyone after them were copies! They've created so many artists it's staggering!

  • Hell yea...

  • i love the band, but they are obviously a carry on from the sixties. Donovan was one of the biggest influences on Anton Newcombe and it shows in his song writing.

  • Is it me of do these guys remind you of Black Market Karma??!

  • ...

    are they clinically retarded?

  • please play by the rules..........

  • put1 il avait la charge

  • One o fthe best songs BJM wrote, the lyrics are unreachable, so true. so right. If i knew a way out, from breaking your heart... we have all been there, on both ends.

  • plus belle chanson des bjm.

  • Anton thought he was as gr8 as john lennon ! thats what i believe! love it ! "nevertheless"

  • anton is a living genius albeit wit a couple of screws loose. certainly got a taste for a tune. gonna purchase TPW-A RETROSPECTIVE as all i own are take it from the man, their satanic majesties second request and thank god for mental illness which are all ace. thanks for posting....

  • this band changed my perspective on music

    simplicity people

    sometimes the only thing that works

    learn to love anton's music

    its very uplifing

    listen to Teppid Peppermint Wonderland:A Retro-spective

    great numbers on that one

  • it's a "i haven't learned how to play yet" the chinga chinga ching strum strum model i think. this whole scene reminds me of "fame" but updated with artschool drop out schtick.

  • What kind of guitar does Anton use?

  • vox cheetah

  • D I G !

  • Jonas Brothers SUCK!!!! FUCK U!

  • well, i think anton knew what he was doing when it came to major labels. they are blood suckers. most bands come away from major labels OWING money.

    look how far he's gotten on his own - he answers to himself (not some label exec), travels the world, and is able to support himself from his music. his art. i think he is truly free. :)

  • tonite auckland gig .pitchforkmedia are fucked.my bloody undergroud is a classic.

  • pay attention to the letter "t" in this song. To tear you apart.

  • can you elaborate on the letter t thing. i love the lyrics.

  • yea, they playd this in nottingham about a month ago ( uk) and all the clasics (servo, etc) great gig.

  • i've seen them live in belgium and it changed my life. they played this tune... awesome. just awesome.

  • wrong, they're pretty much ignored in the states...

    but nice try

  • Well yes, that used to be true, except for the tight circle of die hard fans and friends, but now when I go to shows, I see a lot more people and most of them totally unknown to me - newbies, so to speak.

  • these guys would have been famous in the U.S. years ago if the lead singer wasn't such a fucknut. he pissed away their recording contract. when these guys were up and coming they were REVERED by those really into music and the music industry itself. they were just dying to sign these guys, but yea the singer was a junkie and fucked it all up.

  • somehow i think Anton got the last laugh and is still laughing. His music is liked worldwide. The greatest artists and inventors has always had extremely difficult personalities. Being strange and an asshole when on drugs didnt prevent James Brown from becomming a household name with a million dollar career. Anton is a musicians musician, a broader audience will likely never understand what the fuzz is about. but he will be copied for years to come in genres not even related to his own.

  • Indeed - well said.

  • AMEN BROTHER...

    i got this song on my profile as well as hide and seek when they played australia this year.

    "keep music evil"-a.a.newcombe/fjordson

  • tommyrock69: Is there a problem?

  • One of the seminal songs of the century - BJM, please come back to your roots, come back to this...

  • sounds like Bunnymen at the death. a plus

  • canzone perfetta, grande anton!

  • One of my favorite Jonestown tunes. Classic.

  • Yeah definitely my favorite!

  • Cette chanson est magnifique !

  • tired he looks

  • ok yoda... :)

  • lol

  • tired he looks but stoned he is my young jedi

  • master

    yes

    the wisdom I seek in thy words I find

  • my wife's all time fav not mine but very near the top

  • brilliant

  • I read someewhere that this song talks about

    unreturned love.

    Three words you have spoken(I love you)

    If I knew a way out from breaking your heart

    because I am so tired faking

    this is a bad boy tune

  • why cant more people write tunes like this?? answer-they cant only anton 'does' and will continue too...

  • in questo momento la mia preferita.

  • Where's Joel?

  • This band or Anton is the real thing.

  • hes working at amoeba records, san francisco or new york...

  • It was kind of a rhetorical question. I saw them at Red Rocks (in Colorado) last Summer and Joel was there....Even I was amazed..Mind you, Anton was still doing his best to be difficult and delay the show. Overall, it was kickass!! I was also onstage with them in club in Denver. I wasnt in the band, I was "blocking" the back door which was behind the stage.

  • Why is he so tired of bacon?

  • pure genius

  • yeah just like every rap song is about how cool and "gangsta" the rapper thinks he is.

  • great song, I love it! Thanks for posting

  • Does anyone know what this song's about?

  • Love.

  • pretty much every brian jonestown song is about love

  • spiral of thought! are the lines of a circle convex or concave??!!!?? guess it depends on how you look at it! from the inside to out!

  • The beat really drives this song,and the guitar sound is awesome.Neavertheless Rocks

  • i love this song so much... thankyou

  • thanks for posting this :)

  • wow, great song

  • damnn!! Anton is a fuckin genius, a real musician,he´s fuckin crazy too, but much of the indie movement comes from Antonn influence

  • This is my favorite BJM song!

  • anton newcombe is a fuckin genius.

    mar552tin, that comment should have been saved for britney spears, or ashley simpson you fucking retard. Lennon once said that only 100 people in the world actually understood the Beatles' music, but i think that same theory applies to all music that is awesome, that the average person like yourself doesn't understand. so fuck you.

  • you hit the nail right on the head there!!

  • if you have the ability to declare yourself above average, then i think you just might be. think that over britney

  • who do u listen to
