And we do.

@@Bleh67420 Oh my God! LOLOLLLLOL! You're my cup o' tea!

Ok Marty! Lol

Fate real like this song bidend

Berry McCockinner watch the movie Back to the Future. This whole video will make a lot more sense

Same here. Saw them this week for the last time and now I'm just listening to their music on repeat. This song in particular, man they just went so hard.

I'm seeing them live for the first and last time coming up in Pittsburgh. No album has changed me the way Pale Horses has. I can't begin to describe how.

@@KevinoftheCosmos see you there hahah same with me 💔 my mom has loved them and i grew up on them and when i told her they were doin a farewell tour we HAD to go.

@@kianhoover9389 It was amazing. It was so moving by the time they played Julia that I had a hard time keeping it together. What an experience.

Can't echo this enough. Greatest to ever do it.

Their final two shows are here on youtube and it's fantastic

Beautiful

The part about the field comes from the works of Rumi, an islamic poet who lived in the 1200s. One of his poems reads "Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I’ll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass, the world is too full to talk about. Ideas, language, even the phrase ‘each other’ doesn’t make any sense." The poetry makes sense given some of the themes of the song which draw parallels between Christianity and Islam, most clear in those final lines you mention ("to curse you-dont-know-who, and bow before the same"). I'm torn on the subject of the "you" in both instances of "i'll meet you there." I think the Rumi reference at the start almost certainly refers to those who follow a different faith than islam (given the crusades of the 1200s, christians are a likely option). But the rest of the last stanza is clearly spoken by god ("to mispronounce MY name"). Perhaps the hope is to meet those of other faiths "out beyond ideas of right and wrong" but instead, one finds god there. i.e.: Rumi to christians: "If I lay aside our differences, will you do the same? Will I meet you there?" God to Rumi: "If you lay aside your differences, "I'LL meet you there." In a way, that would speak to the legitimacy of laying aside differences, and the ignorance in focusing on the minute disagreements between different faiths.

@@obscuretapes5127 wow, you made me aware of such a deeper layer. Thanks man

The main female character in 1984 was also named Julia. He says do it to her, which is essentially the climax of the book, and that is used in this song as well.

Room 101

@@Beanys728 I knew however nice the video seemed for a moment there it was going to end with something existentially unsettling. Because mewithoutYou.

You've got a lot of really fun work to do with all the great songs you now get to discover

An absolute iconic opening measure! And the drum and bass in the middle?? 🤌

It’s a play off Back To The Future, so that isn’t his younger self. That’s his father, on the night his parents were supposed to fall in love. Without his parents, he and Aaron do not exist, if he and Aaron do not exist, the band doesn’t exist.

@@chadyoder4041 I think it's actually 'deeper' than this. The mice are a reference to torture schemes of... the ww2 soviet union? nazi germany? They used them to torture and kill their victims in slow and agonizing ways, I don't think I'm going to elaborate for all of you, but it's truly horrible. "At the bottom of a made up ocean" perhaps reference to BBC Blue Planet II, Mike deGruy in his discovery of an "ocean under the ocean", featured in the "Brine Pool" discovery at extreme depths. Mike deGruy died in a suspicious helicopter crash in Australia shortly after. [They] don't want you to know, or consider what's under the ocean. [They] can't have people willing to think outside 'the box'. Props to this band for multiple levels of reveal, if indeed this is part of their purpose for writing this song. Truly excellent work on many levels. Great artists.

@jon1914 that's interesting, I didn't see it that way!

It sucks they are stopping but I'm pretty sure one day they will get back together... All bands who go on an indefinite hiatus always come back 5 to 10 years down the road... just gonna have to wait and be patient. In the mean time, enjoy what they have given us and definitely catch one of their Brother Sister shows (My personal favorite album or theirs, and also their masterpiece) before they end.

They're delaying the ending of the band until next year, so you've got time to see them!

Hahahahaha

Ik how you feel. I just got into Title Fight and Modern Baseball towards the end of last year only to find out both were already on hiatus 😢

You can discover them very well through what they write about. Though, when they perform live, sometimes they go so hard that the lights flicker. You can't replicate that.

Aaron gets the Oscar from me when he looks at Mike and then shrugs before singing the first line.

@@MrSpectralfire The acting and directing are superb!

Yeh shit he’s almost as good as Steven Seagal!

it's perfection

Same. Curious about your other 9 !

Yes this drum and bass part is one of the best things theyve done

I looked up what he was talking about and was so disturbed in general , but also because 1984 was what "we" are "educating" children with in schools...sign of the times...

@@meo150 haha, honestly I haven't thought about it hard enough to know what the other 9 are, I just know this is in the list for sure.

ruined my day :(

Wow shit I didn’t know

What?! That breaks my heart. I saw them like 5 times. =(

This band may have saved my freaking life when I was a depressed teenager. I am deeply saddened to hear that they are breaking up.

God must have been leading them, because apparently the world's over now.

36 now and still rocking their stuff!!!!

Blindside is awesome. Been a fan of them since the 90s. I seen them open up for Linkin Park years ago. Would you believe me if I only went to see blindside? I never was a LP fan. My kids turned me on to MeWithoutYou. This is a great song.

Imagine you stopped liking the song because of some emotional attachment gone wrong. Then your kid would be called Julia because of a song you had literally just heard 😆😆 dafuq

Julia and her Brother Holy-To-The-Lord-On-The-Bells-of-Horses

What was the brother's name?

I'm replacing the names with Olivia. Don't blame me..

Saw a terrible crash (and I couldn't help but laugh) My ear pressed against the past Like a glass on a wall of a house in a photograph Song still gives me goosebumps. Slammin' and jammin' these dudes since 2004.

at the first sign of possible sorrow, I turned my heels and ran... oh I'll never learn...

I mean that's cool. There great. But for all I know you're 16 now.... Haha

@@benjaminvillarreal1499 haha valid. I'm thirty now tho...

@@standardbrah woah! Me too! I got into them in 2006 I think. So not that long for me. Saw them in 2008 when Dear hunter opened for them. Going to see them again soon!

You mean Michael?

@@picciloson definitely michael

I think he was talking about Aaron. My favorite part of the video is when Michael is focused on the drama on the dance floor and Aaron looks at him and gives this look that's almost like he's waving a hand in front of his bro's face to see if he's there, realizes he's gone, shrugs, and goes back to the performance. Chills every time

I'm just finding them today..I'm so moved

Welcome to the family. (I do realize this is a year late.)

Big same 🔥🤘🏻💗

I hope people continue to discover them through the years to come.

Few bands are life changing. mewithoutYou is one of those bands.

I absolutely feel u

Funny! I couldn't stand A-->B Life on first list, but it was the music video for Bullet to Binary that changed my mind. Any band using The Giving Tree in a music video warranted a deeper look. So I read the lyrics and listened to that CD until I loved it. So sad to be losing them now.

Hey, I'm not trying to be a smart ass, but that's growth my guy ❤

Michael Stem somebody has never heard of Narrow Head.

@@freefromself You're right - I hadn't. Thanks. They also sound like a mash of MBV, Nothing and Deftones.

sounds like the whirr songs on the whirr/nothing split

So sad that they broke up

oh my god u right tho

so good, it was perfectly fluent!

Totally missed it first time. I was bamboozled!

Good looks, damn!

I have noticed other films using this technique lately. What do you think it represents artistically?

I think I'm about to find mine

2021 farewell tour in works i believe

I still haven't recovered from Brandnew ending.

Keaton Collas hio

I believe I have some dang, yes.

Ken is that you

Elijah Grimes oh man... you gotta listen to all their records. Amazing discography.

'Every thought a thought of you' and 'Fox's dream of the log flume' are great

Glad that you gave these guys a chance. Always lovely to see new people discovering bands like them.

Thunder Beard Pianos Become The Teeth - Love on Repeat
