The Maccabees Pelican BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge 2011 

This song is absolute genius. Bring back The Maccabees!

Nearly end of 2020,still watching loving, missing this, n the Maccabees x

The whole performance was flawless. Orlandos voice is like no others

Underrated Tight as fuck One of the best indie bands ☺️

That was a seminal masterpiece, one of the most talented bands of the last 20 years, this is how you know the music industry is full of crap......

13 years later and this is still blinding.

Amazing and flawlessly put together. This is real artistry particularly the vocals and drumming. They could not have made this song sound any better.

"Hello, I'm OLLLANDO" and I'm just melting. Oh beautiful man.

One of the best songs....ever.

Justly stunned at how great this song is... fascinating really

I keep replaying it over and over. Epic song.

That song ticks all the boxes. Brilliant.

One of the best pop songs ever made love it when words just flow and not sure wot it all means . Was lucky to see them live twice

I LOVE: 1) This song 2) Orlando 3) His voice

really good drummer

Haunting song. Stunning vocals love it.

Wow. They could have used this for the album. It is absolutely PERFECT.

Come back boys.

Incredible, wish I'd discovered them sooner

This is a musical masterpiece, with such a beautiful sentiment

Reverb. Beautiful. Love it.

What a fucking quality band. Absolutely love Given to the Wild

This live version sounds so much better than the studio recording imo :)

his voice is bloody unique

miss them already

Proper Maccabees.

Hugo is so amazing. Love his voice

wow, first of all, this song is pure bliss and second, they also seem to play it so well live

zo waanzinnig brilliant!!! Moet het iedere dag een paar keer horen.....

You are so right. Remember listening to early Genesis back in the seventies and this does remind me. Was introduced to Macabees by my daughter, who is now the same age I was then. Oh dear . . . before you know it . . . .

Orlando is so delightfully awkward i love it

Pure class Listen and learn

this guys voice is really something :O

bloody hellfire thats a track thats hard to beat..

liking the drumming quality cant stop listening to this song

They had me at "Hello, I'm Orlando".

One of the best performances I've seen in live lounge, absolute quality :P

i fancy all of them

i just saw them yesterday, the singer is so hot !!

I didn't appreciate them as much as I do now! I love them!!

John Peel would have loved and championed this band. Sweet!

LOL - My daughter has been telling me about this band for ages. Finally got round to listening. And she's right - this is a great band.

great live version, the studio one is awesome too. I love the Bruce Gary style on the drums. Nice job Maccabees!

Well said, I didn't 'discover' these guys here in Texas until summer of 2012. Absolutely brilliant, love 'em!
