I love the restrained tension in that song, and the fact that it never breaks out and remains unresolved. That's beautiful.

So underrated. If you're still coming back in 2023 like em up.

My middle school teacher would give us listening assignments and he would play a song for us and he played a tv on the radio song for us and I fell in love. Thanks Mr Cowan. You’re the fucking man.

It’s one of the sickest most underrated songs in living history. ❤

This song will still sound great in 100 years. So if anyone out there is living in the year 2120, give me a thumb's up.

Every time I hear this song is like hearing it for first time.

TV On The Radio gives me serious goosebumps.

The most underated group

Just can't leave this one alone! It's been my jam for almost a decade now!

I was late to hangout and skate with friends when I saw this start playing on mtv2 for the first time. It was a great day and I remember it pretty vividly when I hear this song again

Here for the 2024 eclipse

Still enjoying this most sensual of songs in 2019. That lightning in my teeth

REST IN PEACE GERARD ALL THE WAY FROM IRAN ....... YOU WILL BE MISSED.....روحت شاد

I still love this song, years later. fire as fuck!

still listening in 2017... crazy how their music still sounds new

Even though I've listened to this song since 2005, I still expect a beat drop or break down of some sort halfway through. Tension. It's very near to a perfect song.

2 decades later and here i still am...❤

Refreshing just like 10 years ago.

such an atmospheric song.

Hard to believe this is 12 years old. Feels like yesterday, in 07 hearing this for the first time. Can't find music like this anymore. I'm getting old and starting to feel the "lock in" of my gen of music.

I remember seeing these guys open up for NIN back in 05 or 06.....fucking great live!!

The fuck.. 13 years??? I just found this song and I can't get enough

staring at the sun oh my own voice cannot save me now standing in the sea it's just one more breath and then down i go

I remember doing drugs to this song. Good music during dark times. Still stays with me.

Took me years to find this song. I had one line "across the street from something cemetery" it drove me mad So glad I found it, the memory this song holds. Getting high on my own, in bed at my mom and dad's house feeling so content young and free 😆 I look back and think where did all that time go.

Hear me hailing from inside and realize I am the conscience clear In pain or ecstasy And we're all weaned my dear Upon the same fatigue We're staring at the sun Oh my own voice Cannot save me now Standing in the sea It's just One more breath And then I'll go down Your mouth is open wide The lover is inside And the tumult's done Collided with the sign You're staring at the sun You're standing in the sea Your body's over me Note the trees because the Dirt is temporary More to mine than fact, face, Name, and monetary Beat the skins and let the Loose lips kiss you clean Quietly pour out like light Like light, like answering the sun You're staring at the sun You're standing in the sea Your mouth

I actually watched this on MTV once. It was late at night on some indie music block. Maybe one of the last times I ever watched an actual interesting music video on MTV. I also remember seeing Arcade Fire on that program for the first time.

Never seen em live but it’s so nastagic for me any of thier songs takes me back middle school my brother blairring this cleaning on a Sunday morning with the family wish I could go back

I think that the reason people wonder why someone could possibly 'dislike' this (though a song like this only deserves to inspire hate) is because it's so fucking otherworldly brilliant.

What a band man... Seriously, there's nothing else like them

I was there when Objekt dropped this as Waking Life 23

What a sad day, his bass fit in everywhere on these songs. RIP.

The imperfections of this song make this song perfect!!!!!

this song is criminally underrated...

It’s 2023, this song is still the jam 🔥✊🏾

I remember downloading this on Limewire

Sometimes its good to just sit back, pug in the stereo, turn up the volume, and the neighbors be damned

First song I heard from these guys, back in '04. Loved them ever since! Masterclass lyrics, as well.

Best band I've seen live EVER. They had so much life and were so into it, it was so amazing

Tv on the radio is mindblowing. Their music never disapoints me

Still love this SO much.... ❤️

This is my dead brothers favourite song and everytime I listen to it, it brings him back to me

Masterclass songwriting and one of the most underrated bands ever. I saw them live early in clubs and later in big venues - one of the few bands that translated even better live. Come back please #tvotr

If anyone didn’t know this song is inspired by the Rumi poem No Room For Form... NO ROOM FOR FORM On the night when you cross the street From your shop and your house To the cemetery You’ll hear me hailing you from inside The open grave, and you’ll realize How we’ve always been together. I am the clear consciousness-core Of your being, the same in Ecstasy as in self-hating fatigue. That night, when you escape your fear of snakebite And all irritations with the ants, you’ll hear My familiar voice, see the candle being lit, Smell the incense, the surprise meal fixed By the lover inside all your other lovers. This heart tumult is my signal to you igniting in the tomb. So don’t fuss with the shroud And the graveyard dust. Those get ripped open and washed away In the music of our final meeting. And don’t look for me in human shape, I am inside your looking. No room For form with love this strong. Beat the drum and let the poets speak. This is the day of purification for those who Are already mature and initiated into what love is. No need to wait until we die! There’s more to want here than money And being famous and bites of roasted meat. Now, what shall we call this new sort of gazing house That has opened in our town where people sit Quietly and pour out their glancing Like light, like answering?

TV on the Radio is the best alt rock band from the 90's, they were just late to the party.

I'm listening to this all the time in 2018! It never gets old!!

I heard this song on Entourage 🤗

"i am the conscience clear in pain or ectasy" fucking yes

Saw these guys at pitchfork in 2012 i think it was. they rocked and they did a nice version of Keep Your Heart which i feel the sadness in the air pouring from their souls. Also they did a nice of version of A Method with Shabazz Palaces making an appearance on stage with them, and towards the end they did a badass cover of Fugazi's waiting room and of course Wolf Like Me was mind blowing, if you get a chance to see these guys perform especially outside at night then take it.

One of my favorite songs ever. Requesting this for my funeral.

I made a mistake when I did not see them live when I lived near Chicago, Ill 6 or 7 years ago. I still listen to their albums. I realize this is not for everyone, but I enjoy it.

Back when I first heard this song, I think I remember it taking a while for me to like it. But now that I do, I can't stop liking it more and more... It's such a comforting song, despite the somewhat depressing lyrics. The sound is fuzzy and warm and enveloping--like a blanket, like a universe. And I love the funky sine-wavy video :) Feel kind of sorry for people who think it's like a fart.

This Song is the best! Love listening to it every time I get!

Why TF didn't I appreciate them when I was in high school!? TV On the Radio are legendary!

i love this song!!! specially the feeling i get when im high and listening to this awsome song!!

Genius of a song they create rules and an atmosphere with their voice that they don’t break with the beat and words

i think at this point this is the song i listened to the most times in my life.

Anyone here from 2020?

Still here in 2023! ❤

first track i heard in 2006 desperate youth blood thirsty babes spectacular album

RIP Gerard Smith

Entourage been listening to this since 2015

God they are good

Dave Warden introduced me to these gems!!!!!

Time traveling here from 2008 .. still sounds good in 2018. 😏

As a bass player, i absolutely love the reverb on the bass.. ❤

This is where it all started for me. Hoping there is more to come.

I don’t think people actually realize just how futuristic this song really was. Way ahead of its time. Nobody was using 808 in 2003 unless it was for house music. Hip-hop producers weren’t even using 808 Beats like that.

Dude. I never heard until now. You will be terribly missed. What an amazing bassist. Talk about RHYTHM!!!! This song brings back the best of times for me. Even times that happened before the song came out. It is the soundtrack to my past. Thanks so much for sharing all you had with us. We are very grateful for your musical genius.

did not know i could like this song more

Never heard of these dudes till yesterday. Thank you college radio.

Cross the street from your storefront cemetery. Hear me hailing from inside and realize I am the conscience clear In pain or ecstasy And we're all weaned my dear Upon the same fatigue We're staring at the sun Oh my own voice Cannot save me now Standing in the sea It's just One more breath And then I'll go down Your mouth is open wide The lover is inside And the tumult's done Collided with the sign You're staring at the sun You're standing in the sea Your body's over me Note the trees because the Dirt is temporary More to mine than fact, face, Name, and monetary Beat the skins and let the Loose lips kiss you clean Quietly pour out like light Like light, like answering the sun You're staring at the sun You're standing in the sea Your mouth is open wide You're trying hard to breath The water's at your neck There's lightning in your teeth Your body's over me Be what you will And then throw down your life Oh it's a damned fine game And we can play all night You're staring at the sun You're standing in the sea Your mouth is open wide You're trying hard to breath The water's at your neck There's lightning in your teeth Your body's over me You're staring at the sun You're standing in the sea You're staring at the sun You're standing in the sea

My fav song by them!

This song makes my facial EXPRESSION and body language change so much that it looks like I need a sedative , or to be wormed.. BUT trust me, I'm totally into the groove and everything about THIS

2018 still listening 👏🏼

Entourage has introduced me to so much great music!

this might be their best track ever. can't really describe the feeling it gives me.

Found this song again today when I need it most. It's been years since I've heard it.

sounds like a great song to lounge around and sip some twisted teas while soaking up the sun

This song has aged very well! I still can't tell if it's about sex, death, or maybe both.

i love this song t.v. on the radio is the best!!!!

#2020. #love.

This song is my "Fall to Winter" transition song. Perfect song to get ready for the ending of another year.

A classic. Actually my favorite song of all time.

This song kicks ass

I heard this song St the end of an entourage season 3 episode.

i could ride for hours to this!

You haven't really listened to this song if u haven't listened to it while on psychedelics

These guys are so underrated

yes..me too. This and Wolf Like Me.

This is such a hauntingly beautiful song

MTV2 120 Minutes bought me here back in 2006.

2007, music video "put fidget spinners in the intro" "What are fidget spinners?" 2017 "holy shit! Are there fidget spinners in the intro?"

Something about this song scares the shit out of me. It's just so...sinister sounding. I love it.

I remember hearing this song my senior year of high school in 2004, and I still love it just the same :)

My highschool english teacher introduced me to this band back in 2009 starting with this song. Changed my life. Thanks Randall.

Guy's voice reminds me of Peter Gabriel's work in the 80s

so damn good!

Man i love this song i used to go on so many drug benders with this on loop

So infectious. Wish I had seen them live.
