I am head over heels in love with this song. The first time I heard it I was driving down the highway with the volume as loud as it could go. Instantly I felt relaxed, inspired, tuned in, aware. A feeling of peace came over me. It was beautiful. This is MUSIC!
...the first time i heard under the pressure i was riding on my moto bike through the Karoo desert in South Africa, this song takes you to another place , especially at the 4min breakaway , sax & drums , BRAVO to these guys & thank you
Not joking, but I remember the exact moment when I heard this album, it blew my mind. I knew nothing about TWOD, but so grateful for the introduction. On a date, in a foreign country, couldn't stop listening to it for three weeks. Turned out TWOD was playing the night I flew back to the US, right at home in DC. Only concert I went to by myself, got off the plane, took a shower, grabbed my camera and heading to the 9:30 Club. Priceless!
This band has something magical about them. It's just this feeling of hope and promise, that everything will work out in the end. These guys are perfect listening for long drives or long walks. Please don't stop making music like this TWOD, we need your music right now!
I first heard this song cycling to work. It was a dreary morning and it came on a Spotify playlist as I was going over the Cardiff Bay barrage and the sun was coming up. Such a simple commute that I do every day, elevated to ethereal heights with this song. It really blew me away
This songs is keeping the Voices quiet and makes my PSTD go into into remission. I also am a aelf harmer and the music takes the bad thoughts and feelings away long enough to do some Exercises to get back to hear and now. THANK YOU SO MUCH.!! This goes to the Band and all the workers that help! You Live are Godlike, me and my BFF just LOVE YOUR MUSIC. We use it to calm down our mental states and both have jobs! Your Music was a Huge part. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! You Music is unlike anything else and helps people! 😂❤🎉😊
First time I heard this song was Jan 2021, I was driving from Austin to Dallas. This song, to this moment brings me warm and beautiful memories of our time together. I will always have this song and her memory closest to my heart!
This band is going to have a great future. Their last two albums are pure musical gems. Melody, lyrics, instrument playing prowess, you name it! They have it all (in loads to spare)!!!
I was channel surfing late one evening just before heading to bed and ran into this performance and couldn't change the channel or turn off the tv. Spellbinding.
Every single member of this band plays a crucial role in their success..love the addition of Eliza Hardy Jones...,but make no mistake,without Adam Granduciel,there is no War On Drugs!! He is a freakin genius at mixing and layering all of these extremely talented musicians into being the best band this side of E Street!!
I've seen this band live and nobody plays lead guitar and sings like Adam. Hell nobody hardly plays lead and sings anymore. I was in heaven at their show!
Really doesn't hurt to come back again and again to this performance here! I know of no other band more genuinely and purely committed to their music and just their music than The War On Drugs. New album is stellar as well.
A very pedestrian version, and still amazing. RU-vid is full of live versions of this song and all are mind blowing. I soooooo need to see... no .. experience them play this live.
I first heard this in a cafe and it stuck in my head for ages. Then one day, I was in my friend’s car and the album was playing and I asked her who the band was. I got the album and since then I’ve been hooked. Can’t tell you how many times I have played this album. But this track in particular just takes me somewhere magical far away from this world. It gives me chills.
This has to be my favourite song of all time. I love this band so much and pain from there new album has to be a close second but this live version is perfection. The guitar solo at the end is in so good. It chills me out, who needs therapy when you have war on drugs
While the crowd entered the building and saw the coffin of my dead brother they heard this song. This moment was so intens that everyone got totaly overwelmed. This was the most powerful music i had ever heard. This was 2 weeks ago.
Currently America's outstanding band,live,reminds me of Dylan on the Hwy 61 tour, only better guitar,sorry Robbie and Michael, I was there,these guys are tight!! Yes I am in my '70's !! Adam is tops!
Respect for your musical experience sir! TWOD are operating at a level few of their peers can even understand let alone emulate. Btw i'm a 63 yr old Brit... seen some of the best too. Love these cats!
+mazrio128 the drummer really has some great dynamics here! The whole band just seems to complement each other with their sound. I've just started listening to them more and having known this track and then recently listening to Lost In a Dream...the band is really starting to grow on me, they have a great sound and "sonic perfection" as you put it. Rock on!
Every time I watch this video, I have to replay the lick at 2:26 a few times. This band is a modern classic already and I can't wait for the new album! Next week!
I hear some great influences in Adam Granduciel's music, and its easy to hear Dylan in his voice... but I'm reminded of Gerry Rafferty's Baker Street & Right Down the Line when I listen to this great tune...
Next to the last song at Columbus OH and we were pulsing and rocking and there were jarheads of all shapes & sizes and demographics jamming to one of the best LIVE bands we've seen in a long time ((despite the crappy concrete venue we got primo balcony awesome barstool select seating and RAwKED)....hope Massey Hall following night was memorable, see you in L'ville in December & if any! wants ro GoFundMe in Brisbane just Holler
One of those bands that won’t get the recognition that they deserve. They still have a devoted following, could possibly become the new Phish or GD. ✌️😎
first see of Austin playback....instant reaction? love the crowd so open and truly into music in a deeper backdrop....... I think maybe peel may have first introduced or maybe bbc introducing first heard of Austin Texas. Texas looks like a place I could wanna be. Feeling the south much more than television will have you believe .. by a absolute margin.... home cocking with sumut to work for , bloody love it. Always new deep down America is on top even through the development of modern Britain. Amazballs thou luv 4 all Brits out there mind.
