Is anyone else geekin about the single shot video??!! Dude so much effort went into making this.. I’m reeling with how beautiful all of everything this song and video is about.. So much talent in one little short video.. I’m crying in the middle of lax right now
I just saw them live, and they mentioned that firecrackers are hard to come by in Australia. So they had to use a major production company, which cost $5,000 per set of fireworks. They could only afford 2 sets of fireworks, which is why they opted to do a continuous video.
I’m geeking about every single thing in this song , the video , lighting , colors , how grainy but clear it seems, the music , the lyrics , I’m fucking in love
I’ve never listened to middle kids before until a friend sent me this song and I’ve listened to it obsessively, probably 20 times in the last two days 😂 Something about the vulnerability with lyrics that could’ve easily been about a happy song. It’s comforting and delicate and honest and strange. It’s beautiful and it’s full of longing and I can’t get enough of it.
The next album could be called, Bootleg Firecracker, and have 10... let's say, 11... eleven tracks of Bootleg Firecracker. With a twelfth, hidden track of Bootleg Firecracker.
I had never heard of Middle Kids until I saw them open for Manchester Orchestra and Jimmy Eat World in Spokane a couple months ago. They sang this song and it blew my mind. I love everything about this song, the video, the simplicity yet deep message of it all. Well done!
Thank you, WYEP in Pittsburgh, for playing this. I likely wouldn't have heard it any time soon otherwise and it's great. I'm thrilled that some cities still have public radio. WYEP was one of the first, I believe, and is still one of the best.
Wyep is where it's at. I frame custom homes for a living, and my crew tunes into 9.13 everyday, so much great music discovered through the station, we sing along all the time lol
seeing you guys live was awesome and it was my first time hearing you and now im hooked and im trying to show everybody because i want everyone to hear this amazing music!!!!!
Oh shit! New music?! I started listening about a year ago and have to listen about once a day on my drive to work. Can't believe there's new tunes from you guys ha! Amazing 😍
This is nothing short of brilliant. No huge production values, no choreographed routine. The music stands on its own and the video sets the vibe. I love the single camera and I love that long shot at the end. The wonder in that little girls face matches the wonder in the song.
