Loved them from first album. The raw singing on first albums suits their age and trying that energy to break through but calebs voice now ... jeez .. Amazing. In england uk, we absolutely loved KOL and embraced them before they made it in the usa

"Because obviously he makes all the decisions" "I dont make all the decisions, I pick out the outfits but thats about it" LMFAO !

Your songs are hits to me Caleb!

One of my favourite bands from the US

The first Kings of Leon song I heard was Sex on Fire in a karaoke night in a club in 2012....❤❤❤❤

Matthew is fucking AMAZING on that guitar! Ugh ♥

Love this band my favorite

I love matthew

"I dont make all the decisions" (yeah you do).

Would have loved to hear the filthy graphic version

Oh Matt. I adore you.

This video is amazing!

I love how Caleb starts playing "Day Old Blues" 8:58

makes me like them even more :)

I love all their shit. I like any band that tries new fucking things! I don't want 20 Aha Shake Heartbreaks. I want a Heartbreak, I want an Only by the Night, I want a Come Around Sundown, And I really want my FUCKING MECHANICAL BULL! I honestly think that album (5 more days, woot!) will sell at LEAST 100,000 records. I'm one of the people who think Cage the Elephant's second album is really good. You have to think as albums as seperate entities of the same thing.

the guitar makes him feel at home.

@thing944 this ones 12 mins and the other is somewhere around 25 mins ... its already somewhere on youtube though ... but will try to post part II later especially for you :-D

I want a version of both of Matt's Epiphone Sheraton and Caleb's mohogany Gibson ES semi-hollow body guitars....probably need to go to eBay? I can understand why Caleb keeps playing it. One of a king, angelic. Matt's feedback on live versions of Slow Night, So Long is sweet. Great video for musician diehards! My journey to KOL was related to a Stateside/John Paul Keith concert in Birmingham, Alabama (Univ. of Alabama Birmingham neighborhood) in about 2002, to American Minor to Ryan Adams, and finally to KOL, with some help from a musician friend of my younger brother from suburban Chicago. Still my favorite band, more than Pearl Jam or the Foo Fighters. Americana for the 21st century????

shout out to Beach Side that Caleb plays at 11:38

8:36 Mathew got bored and messed with his pick 😂

que bella es esa gibson x dios!!!

I have the biggest crush on Matt

He’s a trooper

It's so right! They've written so many incredible songs about all the important things in life, and the first song that is a hit is about sex? Does that say something about today's mentality? But anyway, this video is fantastic! It shows so much about their characters... is it weird that caleb compares his guitar with his viance? He somehow hugs it quite often... but I love it!

@loveMyFreakinLife i love this interview! in total its almost 30 mins long :-D ... acoustic set? we should suggest that to nathan! like a MTV Unplugged ... would be awesome for sure!

tres bonne video makemyday1980 cccool

Somebody please convice them to use the rift at 1:59. Such a great sound!

@makemyday1980 i looked for the other clip but cant find it!

i like their new stuff WAY more

they talk about it in this guitar world interview. they said they had the chorus idea but the verses were too similar and they didnt really like it too much. so caleb switched up the vocal melody in the verses to match the style of a certain folk song he liked, added matts guitar parts and the harmonies and nathans parts. then they played it for the label and the label said immediately it was going to be the first single even though kol didn't think it should be

@makemyday1980 Hey is the 25 minute version up yet, if you could send me the link that would be awesome thanks

@brendawalsh9021o i have posted them ... see video answer to this video -> Parts I + II of the IV I posted are new ones ... part III + IV are just this vid spilt in 2. So watch out for Part I + II via video link on this vid!

did he say "Ryan adams" or "BRyan adams"? did anybody get that? around 06:30...

hahaha 'we had sex and.... he claimed to have written it afterwards'

I've been trying to work that out too! first time it sounds like Bryan but the second it definitely sounds Ryan. I hope it was Ryan, seen as he's from the South it seems like it would sense that he'd like him. Ryan's a genius.

@makemyday1980 AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW YEEEEEAH!

like which ones?

if the original version had been the one he eliminated originally, and said that he thought he had an idea that went like the version we all know, then people would say they like the version we know more than the originally original version.

@hersek70 it doesnt all suck but a few songs do

Definitely Ryan

I feel the dude next to the lead singer

i think he meant 9 weeks...

The guitar man, he is play with epiphone sheraton ii pro guitar?

@makemyday1980 I hope your not being sarcastic about my comment. I'm just a 41 year old mom of 3 daughters from Maine. I only found out about them after sex on fire etc. Some people have other things to do all day than surfing the net looking for the latest bands. So now I've become familiar with all their music and love them! In the 80's when I was a teen I used to buy all the music mags and was really into British music and had time to find out about cool obscure stuff. Isn't the point to bec

damn that is shocking

damn I like the original sound of sex on fire :O ....but the final version is awesome as well ;) awww now look at little matt fiddling on his guitar :D I sooo want to see some acoustic performances from KOL!!!

Caleb is definitely a little drunk

@hersek70 Like, like, like!

Lmfaoo

omg so diff without the bass!!

@makemyday1980 30 minutes long? POST THAT SHIT UUUUUUUUUUUP!! :D

@hersek70 Of course that`s the point. If you don`t become famous and make lots of money, how can you pay your bills and have a happy life ? Unless you get a second job, and nobody wants that. I`ve seen those idiots saying "well, i make music, not money." Those people need to wake up.

i think ryan adams

anyone want this cd? i have a copy

It's kinda disrespectful to say their new stuff sucks! It's the same band and they still wrote the new songs. It'd be one thing if they were playing stuff that they didn't write. Don't be so friggin' pretentious thinking you know so much about music. It's the way things progress! Do you want them to keep putting out the same damn thing every time? Jesus!

i just think it seems like it was put together quickly. not many lyrics, kind of like they needed a first single for the album so they wrote it to be appealing to a lot of people. i could obviously be wrong but thats just how it feels to me.

watch radioactive live on snl...and u mean to tell me thats a terrible song?

"I want the old kings of leon back" BALH BLAH BLAH shut up and just listen to the old stuff. People suck for change.

Isn't the point to become famous and make lots of money?

i watched that ages ago lol. in my opinion it is a bad song.

This is awkward as fuck.

hate that song

radioactive is terrible, back down south is not to my taste all though im sure a lot people like it, and pony up is a bit strange. but like i said 3 bad songs and ten great ones.
