Who's in 2024 ? ❤❤

It's 2024 and I'm still here listening to the masterpiece, I Love you Beirute ❤

What a memory! Because of this video I found out about Beirut and I am still listening to their amazing music; 15 years...now and forever!

For the curious among you: This was filmed in Paris, on the corner of Rue Saint-Maur and Rue Oberkampf, in front of the Cafe Place Verte. It's a nice area to get drinks if you ever visit.

My french roomate Iris used to walk with me and sing this along the road of Buenos Aires, But now more than 11years now…I woundn’t never believe how it could make this deep memories in my soul…thanks all of you envolved - Laura from brazil

it's 2020 and I'm still here listening to this masterpiece ⚡️ edit: I just realized that the video was posted on the day of my birthdayyyy like whaaaaat? In 2007 I was 11

Know how some songs can take you back to an exact moment in time and place where you were feeling a certain way about a certain person and you feel all those feelings all over again? This song is so amazing.

I've returned to this video regularly for 16 years. A Thank You is long overdue for this.

I remember when I first saw this. I fell in love.

This song is the theme to one of the greatest nights of my life

Beirut is an extremely underrated band. One of the best live performances ever

my husbands older brother loved this song, and in return my husband absolutely admires this song. and while my husbands brother has passed away in 2018. he still comes back and listens to this song here and there. The joy he experiences is unmatched.

2007.... the year i started college... the golden age of indie folk. that was a very fun time. the times and the music are fun now too. but interesting to think about how these albums, and the blogoteque videos, felt like part of the center of the scene at the time. EDIT: just saw and remembered Will Sheff back there, alongside Travis Nelsen, rest in peace. how the times change.

13 years later and my heart still explodes just as much as ever

I love this recording. I love the reality in it. The voice cracks, the street side crowd, the infinity.

I come back here every now and then to listen to this song and I never get tired of it.

Here after the Beirut Explosion. Beirut has for a while now been my favorite band. The whole thing made me think of you guys. Rest in peace to those brave firefighters fighting the initial fires and all the people caught in the gigantic blast.

I love how powerful his voice is... it just resonates the streets

11 years ago I met this song in Mexico City where I am originally from, I loved it, a year later I started to study French. In 2018 I met a French guy from Nantes travelling in Bolivia, I looked for the first time where Nantes was in the map. It's the end of 2023, today the French guy and I have lived in Mexico and also in Nantes together. Life is a mystery. Hace 11 años conocí esta canción en la Ciudad de México de donde soy originaria, me encantó, un año después empecé a estudiar francés. En 2018 conocí a un chico francés de Nantes viajando por Bolivia. Es fin 2023, hoy el chico francés y yo hemos vivido en México y también en Nantes. La vida es un misterio.

memories, people, moments, sadness, happiness, regrets, dreams,... so many things going through my head while listening this song... getting older....

12 years later, this is still one of my most favorite videos on KZfaq. All of their videos were so neat, warm, & refreshing.

This is one of the oldest song on my KZfaq playlist and I am back after a long time here. Hey beautiful hearted people wish you a delightful time

You simply cannot draw borders on a musical map of the world. There is so much potential out there, which none of us even knew existed.

Nobody: Zach: ba ram bam bam ba ram bam bam

I would go back in time just to watch this

I can't believe already six years have passed since this performance happened.. I feel so old.

I am in love with his voice and this whole band in general

I always have to cry if i listen to his magical voice

Almost 10 years since this happened. How old am I...

Can't believe it's been 12 years. I wrote an article about this particular performance, Zach's singing, the not-really-in-the-mood guitarist (Will from Okkervil River iirc) and the magic of Take Away Show. Not my best writings, but certainly my personal favourite.

2024 and counting. Love this song so mutch. How are they today?

12 years ago i fell in love with this song and this performance. i still love both.

I've been having a rough week and this performance just brings me some peace. Thank you for this.

Toujours aussi beau, aussi vivant, l'émotion est intacte ! Merci pour le partage, c'est du patrimoine.

Eleven years and still obsessed with this song

i love how he laughs throughout the song. i can really see how happy it makes him to be making music

*_well it's been a long time, long time now, since I've seen you smile_*

le chanteur, sa voix, son rire, la chanson, le clip, l'energie….. j'aiiiiiiiiiiime!

I love this song, so melancholic

I used to live on rue Oberkampf across the street from Place Vert and Nouveau Casino (building behind the artwork wall) when I was 18 and 19 (2009/2010). I had just graduated from high school and had spent the months leading up to moving to Paris as garbage man and parks & rec employee in the small city I grew up in. Talk about a change of scenery moving there... Beirut's music, this performance, that street, and those bars and restaurants were the backdrop for some of the best times in my life. So much hope and that unbelievable sense of freedom. I'm not sure I'll ever experience those feelings are purely as that time again, but I'm grateful for having ever felt them in the first place, and this performance always transports my soul back there.

It's great to hear a young indie rock band with a singer whose voice is so genuinely wholesome

9 anos se passaram e esse vídeo continua sendo um dos melhores, cada passo do zach é único e autentico

Saw them with my cousin Ben at Bonnaroo 2011.......... Still find my way back to him. Great performance till the end of time.

My life changed so much these years being a teenager finally starting to see the world through my "somewhat adult" eyes... man what a life...

I first saw this 6 years ago. I’m still here and will be for many more years I imagine... Modern Classic x

Best version of this song in my opinion

Still listening to it in 2018! Awesome

I love this show, his voice is perfect.

El equilibrio, en la física, en los colores.. Los mecanismos en el circo, de movimiento pacífico y atlantico. El disfraz de las sombras. Una flor de papel. Un mirador para ver los latidos de la ciudad. Por fin llegué desde Nantes a Londres.

I'm obsessed with this. And if I told you how many times I've watched this, you wouldn't believe me. Perfect.

I’ve listened to this song for 3 years without ever deleting it off my playlist and I still adore it like back when I first heard it.

Praying for Beirut!

2007 was a great year. 2007 foi um grande ano.

the energy is palpable!! the guy is a prophet of music...love Beirut and always will x

Still one of the best takeaway shows to date. This and grizzly bears shift have my heart I always return to them

For those who wanna know, the song he sings at the end is called: "the canals of our city"

Ok I love him.

I have this episode to thank for introducing me to Beirut many, many years ago. I immediately fell in love with his music after hearing this song.

ele fala alguma coisa como "é uma canção do Brasil" e alguém começa a cantar o refrão de baby dos mutantes

This is one of my favorite things ever. No words for this band.

Faz 14 anos que conheço Beirut, quando sinto saudades venho aqui vê os vídeos. Um primor! ❤️

Ver e ouvir isto é entrar noutro mundo... num mundo muito mais perfeito que este em que vivemos

Essa voz mexe tanto comigo, que não sei expressar o que sinto no momento em que aprecio músicas tão maravilhosas quanto essa.

bringing back so many memories... this channel has been so formative to me, and my taste in music, and my identity. can't believe i'm now twice the age i was when it was first uploaded.

this is still one of my dearest, absolute favorite Take Away Shows

Well it's been a long time, long time now since I've seen you smile And I'll gamble away my fright and I'll gamble away my time And in a year, a year or so this will slip into the sea Well it's been a long time, long time now since I've seen you smile Nobody raise your voices just another night in Nantes Nobody raise your voices just another night in Nantes Oh non je t'en prie, nous ne sommes pas chez nous. Oh je t'assure que ce n'est pas grave. Non laisse moi! Mais qu'est-ce que tu as aujourd'hui? J'ai que les hommes me dégoûtent. Vous ne pensez qu'à ça. Well it's been a long time, long time now since I've seen you smile And I'll gamble away my fright and I'll gamble away my time And in a year, a year or so this will slip into the sea Well it's been a long time, long time now since I've seen you smile

It never gets old

This was everything to me like 11 years ago fresh outta high school...STILL SLAPSSS

eight years, and i always come back!

This feels as if they were playing just for you. It’s amazing. The slightly mismatched violin, the trumpets, the trash can drums...it’s just so intimate. It feels like they approached you and went “Hey, we got this new tune going on. Wanna hear it?

For the ones who resisted against government in Gezi Parki - Istanbul. We were free and happy and hopeful and crazy and funny and drunk and caring environment… and this song was one of our soundtracks. I miss those days so much. I hope we would be back together in a time like that, in a more beautiful and hopeful world 🤍

I used to listen to them whit my father when like 10 years ago. Such a beautiful song. ❤️ Great memories. 🙂 No seriously this band has touched me so much and I had all their songs on my first mp3 player (who has one of those today 😂). They influenced me a lot.

Wow I remember I heard this when I was 12 years old and absolutely fell in love with it and obviously Spotify wasn’t around back then so I couldn’t get a hold of the track - anyway this song played in a movie scene and I shazamed it, and I just rediscovered it and fell in love with it all over again. On replay on Spotify.

we need u guys so much here in Poland. come on Zach..

2021 and I am very glad that I found this song

2021.. my newborn and I used to jam to this. She will be 13 in March...

11 years... e no finalzinho quando eles começam a cantar Baby do Caetano?

this is the hottest song i have eva heard im pumpin this DAILY as if it was just released.

This is (still) everything--pure delight and warmth! Thank you world

I remember watching this on KZfaq around the time it came out. Shit blew me away.

Conhecendo Beirut em 2021: Amando!

I lived on this corner at 115 rue St. Maur for a long time and worked at Place Verte. Before knowing about this video, I listened to Nantes compulsively in Paris. Cet album m'a toucher tellement. Je vous remercie. Ca ma fait pleurer enormement de revoir ce clip ce soir - mixed feelings but this song made me feel like life was just beginning, the video even moreso - the trash can drums - MERCI. Thank you for making it. And for making me hopeful. Julie Jolicoeur

Such a freaking good introduction to this band. I saw this video for the first time around thirteen years ago and immediately dived deeper. I had to. And here I am now, memories leading me backwards, happily, in time throughout my mental music catalogs. This makes me so happy to watch again. 💚

KZfaq was Real KZfaq in those times

well, when he sings "baby, baby,," right before the end, it´s from song by Caetano Veloso a brazilian singer.

Keep coming back to watch/listen to this piece of art! His voice gives me all them good chills

still my favorite takeaway performance...i've probably watched it 3 to 4 times every year since

Os anos se passam, mas Beirut sempre na playlist! 🎼✔✅👏

A coisa mais en(canta)dora de se ver ❤

Found this group when I was listening to fleet foxes take away show. I instantly fell in love and have been my one of my favorite groups of all time.

I've been listening to Beirut for 16 years now. I remember studying abroad in Rome when I was younger and visiting my roommates cousin in Paris -- I made a point for us to find this cafe (La Place Verte, in Oberkampf). A week after, we flew to Dublin and I got to see Beirut, my favorite band, live for the first time. I love this video, I love this song, I love Beirut.

Maravilhoso !😍

Eu estou estasiada, assim como a primeira vez que assisti, isso faz muito tempo! ♥️🇧🇷

The happiness of that guy drumming the trash cans. Remarkable. Beirut are fantastic.

quand j'entends cette voix, le temps s'arrete autour de moi, je reste petrifiée pour ressentir davantage les frissons qui parcour l'interieur de mon corps, les larmes me vient aux yeux, c'est d'une telle beauté....

its like a cool breeze on my skin !Incredible, i never get tired of it !Its too much !

2:58 the cutest laugh ever

Perhaps this song was the first I heard and since then got captivated by Beirut sounds! Had never heard this "acoustic" organic version and it is just a jewel!!!!

After all this time, it still brings such unbelievable joy.

lovely! I wish I was there!
