CocoRosie - Fairy Paradise (Live on KEXP)

[markroar]

The combination of her avant-garde abrasive voice, with the classical harp shit is so good!

[TheRabidabbey]

OMG this is the most amazing thing I've ever heard. Ever.

[justinslarks]

Don't hurt me

[78JaySteel]

the music is great, the voice suks



[dansimsss]

So beautifull..The voice of 2 angels....in human bodies.....

[slamfancy]

i can't even get over how beautiful this is.

[Lions4322]

As a hip hop fan I say: This Was seriously Dope.. !

[1sadsexual2sadsexual]

I CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO THIS SONG!!!!

this version is so much better than their album version.

[marburgssynapsen]

@1sadsexual2sadsexual

Me too.....unbeleavable.....

[psyhofob]

they are not from Earth...

[Scarleto]

Yep, I just got abducted by fairies.

[MrPaparazzit]

Imo, that is REAL art music ! Using instrument as they wishes and not like everyone use them, etc etc Master PIECE as Lunews86 said !

[acs844]

Way way way better than the album version! :)

[pianomatteo]

Paris Conservatory baby :)

[1sadsexual2sadsexual]

I freakin LOVE Cocorosie! they're so unique!

[MrDood182]

i think i made half the views on this video...

[musalixmu]

wow her voice :O

[Lunews86]

wow....blown AWAY with the delivery and energy of this piece.....MASTERPIECE!!!!! YEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!! p.s. im a black dude who has been overwhelmed with rap and r&b...blues was my first love and of course jazz followed but to hear this epic..and i do mean EPIC piece has restored my faith in the evolution of what music truly is...SELF EXPRESSION in itz rarest and purest form!!!

[SimplyCecileP]

@Lunews86 yey!!! ;]

[fernaruto]

very cool"

[chachi78250]

that's crazy good. i'm at awe right now.

[replik4rt]

I'd be curious to know what would look like a collaboration between them and Sigur Ros. Two of the most creative and stunning band in the world, could be so incredible.

[sarchaajah]

Omg.. The music is THIS; The pure music.. Omg <3

[alexyakuza]

this is beauty, pure and simple. My heart skips a beat every time...

[leblanb]

what a holy collaboration

[Cherrywoo77]

U-oh... This is like, TOO awesome... *explodes*.

[l0lwtfian]

Sierra > Adele.

[MrJanesFreezeFrames]

There is no doubt in my mind now that they are the most talented two people on the planet. They've created a hole new genre of music. I haven't experienced anything more beautiful. There is so much we don't know about the universe, CocoRosie helps us understand.

[NuggiezVEVO]

i know Sierra's got that range but there's something so pure and perfect about Bianca's voice, man. So amazing

[ShelbyJustinee]

how the fuck does she do that with her voice.. ugh. 

[WashedOutSalmon]

They are so remarkable. No other band is quite like them.

[bxuin09]

You're not awesome until you make music with toys

[draver21]

Too perfect for human ears to hear.

[awesomeunicorngurl]

i just got addicted to this song and sierras voice is beautiful

[iGeeeked]

I was just hypnotized.

[gabbiebrunette15]

Ursula says to Sierra "I want your voice!"

[muffen700]

awesome!



[dapdapdap1000]

This girl straight up jacked Karin Dreijer from The Knife's voice.

[Ailensinvadethe970]

@dapdapdap1000 i love karin. but i think she sings differently 

[Morganak1]

Oh god... I'm in love!

[Karian95]

Genius!! ♥

[batmylash]

I never normally comment on videos

but this song is just magic!!!!!!!!

my ears are very happy now!!

[VioletRayven]

I discovered this group on Halloween a couple of years ago because Werewolf was recommended and I fell in love! The mix of many different types of instruments, the sisters voices blending together perfectly even though they are so different, brilliant!

[Dylanceck]

<3

[friendfriendsfriend]

ive never really appreciated opera style singing untill this that chick's voice makes me cry i cried the first time i heard that bit

[hannahpanics]

@friendfriendsfriend Same here.

[hannahpanics]

This is such a beautiful song.

[Wacou2212]

Me encanta! Pero no me gusta tan electrónico. Me gustan sus versiones acústicas.

[seriour]

Once you listen to it in HD, it's hard to listen to it in another way...

[MyNegr0]

Very Neat Beat

[devontheknight]

THIS IS AWESOME

[ScragglyGoatBeard]

she dEFinitely sounds like Adam Sandler.

[lulex666]

i fuckin looove iit!!!

[Tendarapo]

A Fairy yeah, no more... no more...

[krysztof87]

Mother of God, Sierra's voice...

[p1soter]

as if she was the daughter of Björk and Antony Hegarty

[ChapsMcLoud]

Somebody has been listening to Bjork

[herdpoisoning]

Wow, I didn't even recognize this version as being a song from Gray Oceans, I love this version so very much!

It amazes me how they can do something and make it seem like everything is perfect, then they do it totally differently and make it even better.

Are they human, or are they something more?

[MainishWolf]

what is that, A clarinet?

[Music1sgreat]

@MainishWolf Yeah, I think so.

[aleaguerre1]

i like it, thanks to share. It´s not like Bjork, is more like tuva singer Sainkho...but it doesnt important. All the music have common references to another...

[wazzamaddawiduden]

It doesn't matter what anyone is actually playing: the whole thing is revolting. It makes me want to throw up.

[IAmContemporary]

@wazzamaddawiduden No one is stopping you, go ahead. But please, just do it where no one can see or hear you, as no one really cares what your sorry ass is doing.

[seriour]

I feel bad for hamadah4, everyone knows he messed up even before watching the vid...

[jayyy689]

waat genre would this music be?

[foodluvr97]

theyre both amazing in their own way O_O its scary how well the different singing styles of the two sisters go so well together. i love it

[antoneLLina8]

MAGICAL. AND UNIQUE.

stop comparing!

[neukrapsio]

I LIKE ! is like Bjork !

[marcuswlnd3]

This video went viral on Abidjan

[dannyrcastro]

I'm going to finally get to see CocoRosie LIVE in feb. :D if God permit.

[seriour]

1.52 THAT look to the camera stole my heart <3

[jgda9rs]

sierra cassidy is awesome

[alexandracromwell]

en el minuto 3:19 suena el arpa o el piano, por que me pareció ver a la chica del arpa con ambas manos en su cabeza y el arpa aun sonando :S

[Wacou2212]

@alexandracromwell Gael (el pianista) está tocando arpegios, eso es lo que escuchas, la melodía del arpa es otra, y Sierra no estaba tocando en ese momento ;)

[AnOasisOfSerenity]

legendary sheep voice

[poisondd]

this is fucking amazing, all these talents coming together to create musical perfection

[EltonTrujillo]

Simply amazing :D and beautiful :D

[sdotsamson9]

this is one of the most amazing musical pieces I have ever seen/heard. I hope to work with them one day.

[jessalainn]

if you dislike this, you're a bollix. end of.

[Anonimundnb]

fuking voice! the rest of music its amazing!

[meowfacez]

<3 cocorosie.

[MsMeowskins]

obsessed. watch daily.

[xxdufffxx]

Her voice is so magical<3

[FerNanDa46114]

Magic!

[kekolandiap]

is Cheryl Waters crying..?? or it's just my imagination...=0

[Luckyhat66]

What. The Fuck. I'm not sure if I love this or... I just can't even...

[TristanCrider]

It makes me laugh how good this is. Jesus.

[Sup3rmassiveDeadStar]

It reminds me Björk

[seriour]

I love how she looks at the camera at 1.52 :D

[MsMeowskins]

@seriour shes like "are you getting this camera man?" with one quick look

[TristanCrider]

Good Lord... Sierra has an amazing voice.

[castrodanny]

I can't believe they're going to be in LA in February. I have to buy tickets!

[chortearl]

biccering about loops and the "liveness" of a studio recording is awesome. go internet.

[dresdenleo]

only discovered them last week. bought the album just waiting for it so i can play it over and over :)

[khjiuiuhiui4575686]

um, i just discovered them like 2 minutes ago, and i am already in love. HOLY FUCK. <3

[NanookDJ]

@khjiuiuhiui4575686 - YES!!!!!!!



[Rosol88]

voice like my cat when i sitck my finger in hes ass xD but awesome im lovin it

[Ahksmar]

I like this song...ok, now I am going to listen to some metal so I can feel tough again.

[Ceylaxp]

Ahh, one's voice is like mercury and the other's crushed foil. Beautiful.

[desco0021]

I want to marry that girl singing opera & playing harp.

[Churchmice]

Just found this by clicking through the KEXP Uploads. Never heard from CocoRosie before. What an unbelieveable awesome & beautiful piece of art. Have to listen again, and again, and again...

[maluse227]

HOW CAN ANYONE MAKE THAT SOUND WITH THEIR VOICE that cant be humanly possible its like an angel sighing its so heart wrenching. :D

[houseinthesand]

Goose pimples, all over my body...

[Premovictoria23]

i wish i could like this a thousand times.....

[kikima3]

I love their live versions of fairy paradise they always do it differently

[MakeUpWAO]

Is that a mustached?

[h1ckfil]

This is remarkable.

[Cassibumpkins]

I love how they use their hands when they sing.. It adds to the effect

[Premovictoria23]

@Cassibumpkins ikr? now i find myself doing that whenever i sing hahaha

[hamadah4]

Awesome, but not totally live (see 2.15, we hear harp but Sierra is not playing it). But I am not complaining, this is a fantastic version!

[OMATICH]

@hamadah4 is live bro, just a video edit error. multiple cameras are hard.

[kexpradio]

@hamadah4 It's not an edit error actually. The keyboard player is playing the piano. -the editor

[hamadah4]

@kexpradio Aha you are right!!

[Apskater42]

@hamadah4 Looping what you play does not take away from it being live. It is part of performing. Especially when you have multiple talents going on at once. It is not like they took it from an album version and played it over them live to make it sound like something better than they can play live.

[hamadah4]

@Apskater42 Hi! It is no loop, it is Gael Rakotondrabe playing the piano, (playing harp-like arpeggios) so I was mistaken! The KEXP-radio-editor explained it to me. Greetings from a fan.

[Xiabuse]

@hamadah4 that's the piano budd.

[Dracktusz]

@hamadah4 it sounds like piano mate, check it again :)

[AJtotheElmore]

@hamadah4 Yup. I concur.

[ccelesticaa]

@hamadah4 Sorry, are you blind? dumb? you can clearly see her playing the harp..

[foodluvr97]

@ccelesticaa no she isnt. at least at 2:15 she isnt. i think hamadah4 confused the piano sound with the harp sound

[raul23perth]

This ladies voice reminds me of bjork so much in a way

[SKAman635]

I dug this until she started singing.

[123treeparty]

Stunning

[457476202]

i love cocorosie so much more when they're live <3

[zaalazar]

gosh the girl playing the harp... she is a siren...

[NotrelGraphics]

@zaalazar In Norway, Siren is a name, so that makes little sense, haha :) (but I know what you mean).

[firimituri]

full of witches.

[AmaneSuganami]

this is so much more amazing than the album version. I love them so much

[fearakarandoom]

breathtaking

[TrentLedford]

One of my fav band. watching them live is so awesome. they are so creative .

[grazhnybratchny00000]

maaaan. I like this WAY more than the album version.

[digitalfreak200]

i really wish they did Werewolf on KEXP

[Aeviepoo]

Been on repeat for four days now. Cannot get enough.

[azas17]

An emotion ive never felt b4. and i felt lots..

[blackexperience]

love watching sierra's mannerisms as she sings so gracefully.

[BaghMath]

I feel sorry for the 12 deaf people...

[TheBridgeBurning]

I want this to be my entrance song when i walk through the gates to heaven. Cocorosie can follow behind me and play this

[mcmullum]

@TheBridgeBurning  Lol heaven.

[MedusaGore145]

their minds must be beautiful

[blowedbrains]

<3

[Wolfitoish]

:c i want hear this for ever (L) i luv it :3

[ThisDanceScaresMe]

@NeonFoxLetsPlays Oh, well that doesn't make much sense either..

[nessihoi]

i like this much more than the album version ... so beautiful. i can see the fairies--

[jflowism]

I just melted.......that was breath taking....

[stepijunk]

This is incredible.

[NeonFoxLetsPlays]

the one reason i've loved CocoRosie is their just extremely odd lyrics and imagination. You have such beautiful lines like "Lilac dust of a woman's hair" and then some odd ones like "A mustache from the snow fall"

[nanenikodem]

"Look, she can even play the saxophone."

"Thats not a saxophone, that is a clarinet."

[briillusion]

I love the live version so much better. This song is just amazing.

[artgirrl]

Wow.... Amazing...

[republic19xy]

This is probably the best song I have heard this year.

[DaPsychosoph]

@republic19xy I agree.

[filipomed]

emotional jellyfish??? what is that??

[ansoni]

@dannyrcastro You hope that they come to Coachella again.  I discovered Cocorosie at Coachella:-)

[AlessioDan]

bah..O.o

[iustinica18]

eargasm



[dannyrcastro]

I hope Cocorosie comes to Coachella!

[jh73980]

how she plays the harp is so beautiful

[jhorton1992]

Harp rhythm reminds me of Titanic

[dre38w]

This gives me goosebumps. Gorgeous. I actually like this live version better than the studio version. Both are amazing but I just overall like this one better. It's just beautiful to hear this. =D

[AstandsforAlex]

EMOTIONAL JELLYFISH??? WTF ROFL

[atthehops]

I heard a all lot of celtic inspired music from Fairport Convention with Sandy Denny's vocals to the October Project, Renaissance, and of course Loreena McKennitte . CocoRosie is truly a unique sound. Fairy Paradise showcases their inventive talent.

[ChayaFaya]

I thought I would hate her voice after I heard her back up in R.I.P burn face but I actually really really genuinely like this alot

[Fuzzlike11]

Massive Eargasm
