Poets of the Fall - Jealous Gods (Alexander Theatre Sessions / Episode 9) 

Gave me chills all over, this band is the love of my life and is criminally underrated.

They say the band is underrated. Maybe it's true. But the fact remains that they have a very loyal and devoted fanbase. They don't need to go around proving themselves to everyone.

Me: Have plans Poets: Here's a new video Me: To hell with plans

The piano The lyrics The acoustics The voice The feelings The gods are jealous of us

I wasn't expecting Jealous Gods but it's definitely a welcome expectation.

Великолепная песня, потрясающее исполнение... Спасибо, Поэты! Мы любим вас! ❤

Can you feel the void between us Nothing there but light, yet it seems like the weight of the world Keeping us here in the dark If I allow our blessings define us Bearing the scars of our loss like it's all we deserve When passions we hold will depart If I could build a bridge between us Arcs of soaring rainbows Strength of mother earth Would it fill our hearts If I instilled a faith to guide us Blind and sweet like free flow A seed in every word Could we lose the facades Are we just jealous gods With every wall ablaze around us Calling out your name like it's now and never surrender Victory is yours to claim By every trick of light by sleight of hand That makes a miracle reality right where you stand They got their claws in good and deep So you see there ain't no placing the blame And so I'll build a bridge between us Arcs of soaring rainbows Strength of mother earth For a brand new start And instil new faith to guide us Blind and sweet like free flow With every single word We won't go down as frauds Like jealous gods Like jealous gods We are the perfect flaws Perfect with our flaws Just jealous gods Just jealous gods We're the perfect flaws The perfect flaws I can sense your apprehension Fear for naught for I'm here and I'm made of your love Found in the quick of things And we can walk the bridge between us Arcs of soaring rainbows Strength of mother earth Let it fill our hearts And instil a faith to guide us Blind and sweet like free flow There's a joy for every hurt Forgiveness in the flaws Even for jealous gods

3:55 That smile That damned smile

Saw them in Stockholm last year. What a show. Still living on the experience this year, thankfully lol Anyone that gets a chance to see them live one day, just do it, no regrets :)

There's nothing more joyful for me to turn on my phone and see the RU-vid notification of new Alexander Session! Never get tired of listening to Poets of The Fall💙

🥰 каждый месяц жду этого события 🥰☺💗

The worst part of these series is that there's only 3 songs left... I would love to see a version of every song in this format, it's beautiful.

😐😊 Улыбка Марко отлично дополняет его волшебный голос и это видео 😍😄 👏👏👏 Скорее бы декабрь 2021, ждём концертов в России ❤🤞

His voice feels sooo warm, these versions especialy.

Pretty sure Gods are literally Jealous right now!! Absolutely marvelous.

Everyone: It's impossible to bring together soulful composition with meaningful lyrics, played with just the right number of instruments, sung by a mesmerizing voice. Potf: Hold my beer. These guys are an absolute joy to listen to. Criminally underrated.

I doff my proverbial hat to you Captain.

what a voice, what a voice

Народ! Уже не первый раз сталкиваюсь с такими комментариями: ах, у Марко такой чистый голос, как у ангела ) О божечки! Ми-ми-ми ))) Да не чистый он у него! Марко - вообще - мировой рекордсмен по издаванию самых разных звуков! Он может петь и чистым голосом, и с хрипотцой, а там , где это необходимо, рычать, как волчище или наоборот, чувственно шептать - и от этого шёпота (я знаю) у вас цикады внизу живота канкан отплясывают ))) Суметь спеть одну и ту же ноту - множеством разных способов и с различными обертонами - вот истинное вокальное искусство! И Марко в этом - Бог! Сатана! Да кто угодно!!! А вы - ангел-ангел... скукотища....

Одна из любимых песен в обновленном звучании. Нааааайс. Thank you Poets! With love from Ukraine 💗

These guys MUST have a record with Orchestry! Best sessions ever heard. Wait for more :)

God how I admire those aspirated and plosive consonants (both!) and amazing diphthong. My internal linguist is dying of pure joy :O

I really loved that the video shifted to Marko and Captain being themselves when the song conveyed the message "perfect with our flaws". Good old potf

Your theatre sessions is the most beautiful thing that’s happened in 2020.

This song is so much more than just the sum of it's parts. The message in it transcends even the magnificent vocal and instrumental work. Every time I hear it, I believe all over again in the human ability to accept and forgive. This just adds a wonderful new element to the delivery of that message. Thank you for helping me to believe, Poets.

The editing in this blew me away. WOW, what a cool way to add even more depth to this song. No surprise that Jealous Gods sounds fantastic in this theatre. I'll play this on repeat the rest of the day

When i heard Carnival of rust i was only 8 . From then the name " Poets of the fall " come to me as more then a music band...great wishes from " Bangladesh "

Just bought it on iTunes. It’s the only choice given living in a limited America. All your albums have lift me up, Thank you so much.

A seed in every word: a garden full of poetry

Yes. Please build that bridge between us❣️. A brand new start . . . Lose the facades . . . Perfect with our perfect flaws . . . I fear not . . . ❤❤ Stunning as always, Marko . . .

The janitor of that theater (Ahti, of course) is the luckiest man alive to keep seeing the quite down-to-earth gods perform.

That voice. I swear upon every atom in the universe it's something else. It's a unique phenomenon.

Шикарна пісня, неймовірний вокал та талановитий акомпоніатор. Люблю цих хлопців! 💜

Эти ребята божественны)

everything about poets of the fall is wonderful

YAY!!!!! Я всегда очень сильно радуюсь, когда Поэты выпускают новый эпизод

Wow! What a song and a performance... Less can be more some times. Just shows how good composure this is along with Marko's great voice. POTF is it's own genre...

Помню, первый раз услышал в Макс Пейне и все понеслось... Отличный коллектив, отличные песни.

Божественно! 😍 Голос как река, обожаю. Слушаю их с 2005 года. 👍

This is just extra special. Goosebumps from the beginning. Love this band and love these sessions. I am hoping Carnival of Rust is one of the closing three from these sessions. Cheers!

Kaleidoscope-ing the theater beautiful touch. Love these lounge style sessions😇👍

‘I can sense your apprehension fear for naught for I’m here and I’m made of your love .....’ ❤️ pure heaven in heart rendering lyrics. Marko and Captain such a perfect combination. 🥰❤️

This is not fair.. the moment I give up on everything this pops up and gives me hope again..

Oh, this whisper gives me goosebumps.

His voice can bring world peace

Шикарно,волшебно,сказочно

First note made tears come to my eyes.

When someone like this band is underrated then you know something is wrong with people on this planet Earth!

As if the performance in itself wasnt enough, the band is are making it even better with some seriously good vfx in the videos

I love that marko's smile at 3:55 😊

I cannot even comprehend how incredible this is. Thank you so much, Poets, for yet another wonderful experience. :)

До слёз 💔

Simply beautiful...

real fan want Rebirth !!

Боже,мурашки по коже!!!!

I literally cannot stop listening to this. It's been two days.

C'mon, this song deserves more likes.

Omg, this is the best until now

With all that's going on in the world and specifically all the madness in the US this is what I needed. Marko's vocals and Markus on the piano, a perfect combination.

His voice brings out the emotions lying underneath... awesome

My all time fav Poets song, I thought you couldn't top it. you just did with this... This as blew me away!

I will die while listening to you. Amazingly

It might just be me, but their songs fit wonderfully in a gnostic context. Basically, some demigod angel, "Demiurge", was created imperfect and created an imperfect world we humans now need to overcome by gaining knowledge of the divine, or "gnosis", before we die. Just imagine said demiurge singing to you, wanting to build a bridge between this necessarily tough life and the divine realm.

I like this music and these words

Very beautiful 🌝

I love his voice

Thank you 🤗

I'll definitely cover this song.
