My best friend passed away and we really loved cranking this song on a hot day after chilling at the lake all day. We always shared admiration for this song and considered it a musical masterpiece. As I was making my way through the 3 mile long line of people (yes I had to wait to see him)..... This song started playing as I entered the room and as I got to the casket the solo was playing. It was the most beautiful way to tell my best friend goodbye. To our favorite song at our favorite part. It’s almost like he told god to put on this fire track. Thank you for making this song so much more special. Can’t wait to rock out in heaven! Rest In Peace bro!

I used to think, darling, you never did nothing But you were always up to something Always had a run in, yeah I got to think those days are coming to get ya Now no body want to protect ya They only want to forget ya You'll be on my mind Don't give yourself away To the weight of love You'll be on your side Don't give yourself away The weight of, weight of love Dance all night cause people they don't wanna be lonely Never wanna be lonely They don't wanna be lonely You have a thing no one could ever be sure of Never ever had a pure love And never no cure from You'll be on my mind Don't give yourself away To the weight of love You'll be on your side Don't give yourself away The weight of, weight of love

Honestly, this is one of the best songs I've ever heard

This song is such a masterpiece it is actually unbelievable

There is a song, every so often in a generation, that can’t be explained-as to the legend of its greatness…and this is one of those. There is no way to explain what it does to you. It’s a vibe-a feeling-an atmosphere of incredible sound.

That guitar solo gets me every time

This is one of the VERY few songs that can actually give me chills

Black Floyd or Pink Keys?

We just don't get 2 minute intros anymore. A very nice change and throwback to classic rock!

When I listen to this song, It's good to warm my bones beside the fire.

One of the best guitar solos of the 21st century

It's clear through this whole album Dan was pulling inspiration from some really dark and sad place in his soul. It's funny how some of the best music comes from heartbreak.

2 minute intro 3 epic guitar solos this song is fucking legendary

This is Black Keys's masterpiece.

Reminds me so much of "Breathe in the Air", Pink Floyd...such a peaceful melody.

One of the best songs in the past decade, why can't we get more music like this.

this song is hauntingly beautiful, i think it’s their best one

This song always hits home especially when you're trying to move on with a broken heart..

This is the best Black Keys song, by a long shot

you know it's a good song when you come back after years and still get the feels

It’s 8:40am….first time I ever heard of this song never knew this masterpiece was out there waiting for me to fall into the depths of this song!❤

HOW IS POSSIBLE THERE ARE PEOPLE DOESNT LIKE IT ????? ITS A MASTER PIECE!!!!!!!

there’s only like 5 songs in this world that actually make me feel something, songs that I have to stop what I’m doing, just sit down and enjoy the sound, this is probably number one out the five.

Some guitar solos melt faces, this one melts the soul

This song kicks ass man, seriously I have no words to explain how much this song is pretty much simply flawless! and that guitar solo I mean c'mon just simply bad ass!!!!!

Dan laying down some heartfelt vocals, funky basslines, and face-melting solos; all in the album's opener. What a talent.

the things i would do to be able to hear this song again for the first time...

Easily the best track on this whole album, and I am willing to argue one of their best ever. The guitar at the end feels like some great tragedy unfolding before you.

Lyrics I used to think, darling, you never did nothing But you were always up to something Always had a run in, yeah I got to think those days are coming to get ya Now no body want to protect ya They only want to forget ya You'll be on my mind Don't give yourself away To the weight of love You'll be on your side Don't give yourself away The weight of, weight of love Dance all night cause people they don't wanna be lonely Never wanna be lonely They don't wanna be an only one You have a thing no one could ever be sure of Never ever had a pure love And never no cure from You'll be on my mind Don't give yourself away To the weight of love You'll be on your side Don't give yourself away The weight of, weight of love

I dedicated this to my grandma She passed away later I hear it all the time for her Then My other grandma passed. But this is the most beautiful orchestrated sounds for anyone and imagine dedicating it to your biggest idol. Makes it so much more special. I would shed tear alone then I showed my best friend and we tear tighter but it’s nothing bad

Every now and then I find myself coming back to this song, hard to believe it’s been almost 10 years. I fell in love with this song when I first heard it, which was summer of 2015. It was the summer after I graduated high school, and I was driving home late at night on a weeknight after seeing some friends. I was just alone in my car, with the windows open and the radio on, alone on the road. It was a tough time because I had spent all second semester talking to this girl who I was so smitten with, she was at that time the most beautiful girl in the world to me, and by the end of the school year I had to finally accept that she didn’t wanna date me, she just wanted to keep me around so she could use me for emotional support when the guys she was actually dating would mistreat her. I was young and I experienced then, so I didn’t understand that you can’t convince someone to like you, and I didn’t understand that girls will do that; take a guy they have no interest in dating but keep him around with crumbs of attention so that they have someone to listen to them and validate them when the guys they actually date, the bad boys, cheat on them, ignore them, etc. Hearing this song on that drive home, not only is the instrumental so beautiful and haunting, but the lyrics spoke to me. From what I understand the song was written about the singer’s recent ex-wife, who cheated on him leading to a divorce. I related so much to what he’s saying to her in the song: that he feels bad for her because she’s never had a pure love, she’s always moving from man to man, leaving broken hearts in her path, and that she’ll be on his mind, whether due to missing her or pitying her, and wishing her well in her future relationships. I’m back here again to listen, the same exact KZfaq video of the song, almost 10 years later, and I’m reminded of that drive home, of that time in my life. Life is still hard, now I have new women to be upset about, to miss, to wish wanted me like I wanted them, but it’s nice to think back about a woman who now I wouldn’t want, but at one time was all I wanted. I’m writing this comment so that I have something to revisit when I come back to this song, whenever that may be.

People have forgotten what real music sounds like. The Black Keys haven't.

I remember driving through the Mts in Utah just listening to this song on repeat for hours. What a beautiful memory. I'm glad to have it. Thanks keys.

This song in the background, a walk in the night with a bright moon shining and me reminiscing the past on silver-white shining grass, where I lay and find my peace. A peace that's fulfilling, the moment where the brain listens to everything the world has to say, the moment where I watch the stars fall with nothing to wish for, the moment where I stay for the world to pass by in timelapse without taking anything from me.

the absolute most hypnotizing song ever. ive been listening to it for a while and am not bored of it, instead, it's makes my stomach turn and ache as if it's the first time im listening to it...wow

I have listened The Black Keys since 'Brothers' (2010) when I was 13 years old. This is one of my favourite songs ever. Everytime I listen to that solo guitar I felt so many things inside that shock me out my soul. I never thought that I could watch this song in live because I am from Spain and they don't come so often. In fact until this summer I couldn't watcht them on tour for the first time. They played this song and make my dream come true. It was so special that I am not going to forget that sensation never. Long live to The Black Keys!

some drunk guy guy showed this to me at a bar and this is the best song i’ve ever heard for the first time

I can't believe this song is already five years old.

You know it good when 7 minute long song feels like 3 or 2

This band has evolved to something great, making lots of changes to their music without forgetting where they came from, not many bands do such a thing when they change. This is the awesome thing about them and whoever can't realise it I feel sorry for them.

When this album got out back in 2015, i had already been a fan of the black keys for a few years . But I was 19 , still too immature to really get the caliber of the music inside. I got back to it a few years later, it must have 2019 or so, and i finally understood that was the best album of the black keys EVER released. They reached perfectly balanced, flawless music when everybody had already forgotten them. Catchy smash hit such as lonely boy resonate with the broader audience, but true rock fans... They know that the pure, real black keys melody springs out of this record. It gets better as time goes by.

This song is as good as 60s and 70s psychedelic rock hits. Classic

This is one of those songs.. that when you hear it you get chills and goosebumps and think about that someone... I’ll never forget you. ~A

The last guitar solo is hauntingly beautiful and gradually steps beyond epic as it rolls through my system.

One of the all time greatest guitar solos.

I’ve been heavily listening to this song for almost 10 years now and I still get chills when listening to it to this day. There really are no words to describe how incredibly perfect this song is. Masterpiece.

the best part is that you can reverse the spiral if you concentrate

Was sitting in class stoned to the bone listening to this while writing some assignment See everyone turn and start talking, everyone slowly starting to stare at me because everyone can hear the guitar solo through my earbuds Worth it

This is such a calming song to hear when you’re sad

Ohh... This song leaves you with a lump in your chest... So fricking emotional... Masterpiece! 🙌🙌🙌

I think that this is the most beautiful guitar work that Dan has laid down, the song is absolutely incredible! Lary

this is what’s called eargasm.

God this song is good, the bass lines at the start, aurbach's vocals the whaling bluesy riff in there, this is the perfect song you literally cant make anything better

Are we listening to The Black Floyd?? Chapeau!

Hands down their best song in my opinion. The instrumentals are insane from start to finish.

My Brother And I just seen Dan an Pat at the St. Paul State Fair, When lonley boys came on.... LEts just say I needed my "Twirling Room" LOL This song will forever hold a special place in my heart ! Rock on Dan & Pat !

Easily the best song they ever made. They need to just make a fuckin psychedelic prog album that sounds like this.

MASTERPIECE

I seriously hope they realise how incredible this song is, it makes me feel things I've never felt before

People hated on this album for how different it was from their previous albums. But, in my opinion it’s another perfect album from The Black Keys!

I just listened to this song for the first time and I'm absolutely blown away. Very few songs make me react in this way.

I listen to this song everyday and I don't get tired of it.

Shades of PINK... FLOYD THAT IS! GLAD THEYRE OUT THERE!!!

The guitar solo near the end makes me cry so hard and I have no idea why .

the best guitar solo i have ever heard in my life

My soul needed this song

Best rock song i heard last decade

You ever have a song, where something wonderful happened in your life, and you hear the song... you start having that feeling, remembering it all. Every damn time I listen to this, I think of you Benjamin, my sweet darlin'.

Truly this makes me rethink of what human beings are capable of doing. If we only realise how great of creatures we are.

When this album first came out, it gave me such strong feels I've never had before. Had to give it a rest so I don't ruin it for myself... Years later, still feeling them

This song is so simple yet so full of character. Amazing

WOW!!!! JUST WOW!!!!! I came here to listen to a different Black Keys tune for my band that wants to play one of their songs. I'm not a fan of this band ( I am now). And this song just came up by itself next, and I am completely blown away!!!! Where has this tune been for the past several years!!! It sounds like it was recorded in the 60s. I LOVE IT!!!!!!

This track is gold. Perfect, just perfect.

This song is like a spring rain. And fresh air after. And some things that could have been but never were. And peace after all this time.

its too hard not to listen the song all the time

one of the most amazing and important songs i've ever listened to. it was with me through some really shitty moments. every time i had a fallback, i put it, sang together and cried while doing it. such a powerful song

This song is beautiful. It literally gave me the chills.

eargasms with black keys all day

Masterpiece. Easily the best song in the album.

It’s one of those songs that makes us all feel connected. It’s truly amazing reading some of the comments on here. Each with their own perspective of what it means to me. Dan really showed the world how much you can express human emotion from an instrument and I’ll forever be grateful for that.

How many of you wish the whole song was a longer version of that solo in the beginning

This should have been the first single. I think it would have taken the world by storm. I guess you saved the best for last.

proof that good music is not dead yet...

Is it bad that this song makes me cry every 2 years? 2014- cried 2016- cried 2018- cried 2020- I got teary eyed. Still have to cry though.

'Breath' + breautiful arrangements

That guitar that kicks in at 4:40 and runs all the way to the track's climax is like fucking lightning in my ears.

The beginning of this song just goes on forever. I love it

Loving the Pink Floyd vibe. Thank you, Black Keys!

so much to ''say'' but the most important is that much more to ''feel'' about this song and it's pleasant melody. such a harmony to have...

Come on Black Keys bring out that new album!!!

Oh man, this song is way too good

i dont think theres a time ive heard this song and the hair on my arms didnt go straight up , especially that solo . makes my entire body get chills

One of the best bands of the last two decades...god bless you Black keys!!!

Recognize a masterpiece yall

this song is literally a masterpiece among music

This album has aged like the finest of wines. I’d put it right up there with El Camino as their best.

That solo is just too epic best solo in history fr (opinion)

I have to say, while I like the Black Keys, this song makes me want to dig deeper in to their catalog. Has a great throwback feel, that I just dont get much from today's music.

This will remain in the history of rock'n roll music.

Might be one of the most underappreciated songs out there. Imo THE Black Keys masterpiece and one of the best songs of the 21st century
