I am listening back on a nostalgic trip from 13 years ago....travelling through Central America being introduced to this somewhere, maybe Panama...then heading to Europe after some months and coincidentally seeing them play an uplifting inspiring live show at Sziget Festival. So many great people in between, so many amazing places. What a life

When I think I can't have fun sober. I listen to this song loud as hell and just jam the FUCK out.

Lyrics: One's not enough I won't stop 'til I've given you up Here, right as I am, it's hard having fun It's much easier said than it's done Hold me like before Hold me like you used to Control me like you used to No You don't move me anymore And I'm glad that you don't 'cause I can't have you anymore But I thought you should know You don't move me anymore And I'm glad that you don't Because I can't take it anymore Oh The room's still now when I'm lying 'cause the well of the night has gone dry When they ask to behave, I pay them no mind Now I doubt if I'd have been so kind Hold me like before Hold me like you used to Control me like you used to No You don't move me anymore And I'm glad that you don't 'cause I can't have you anymore But I thought you should know You don't move me anymore And I'm glad that you don't Because I can't take it anymore More Hold me like before Hold me like you used to Hold me like before Hold me like you used to Hold me like before Hold me like you used to Control me like you used to Hold me like before Hold me like you used to Control me like you used to No You don't move me anymore And I'm glad that you don't 'cause I can't have you anymore But I thought you should know You don't move me anymore And I'm glad that you don't Because I can't take it anymore But I found you should know It feels like being tranquilized I know the separation kills us so But I won't stop falling like raindrops Because I like it when you lose control

i want to go now on a little Island with one tree and blue water and blue Sky......THIS IS MY DREAM!!!

I will admit I was surprised when I found out the song was actually about battling alcoholism. Adds another level to the song, in my opinion!

Very underrated band! I love this song....

Man, I love session music

my all time favourite tune by Yeasayer! 😘🙏🏼

Goated song

1. FIFA 11 2. GTA V Awesome in both of them

I love this song so much, can't get it out of my head

love the song almost as much as I love alcohol

anyone else having a marathon of watching live versions of GTA 5 songs?

knockabout groove with disco, pop and afro-beat mixed in one, love it

thanks yeasayer i have now a dream

nice sound, you guys are great!

No me canso de escucharla, esta canción es una obra maestra!!!!!!!!!

this is so damn good!

I'm impressed with how high that(big as fuck) bassplayer's voice goes. Perfect for the background vocals!

this is by far the best version of this I've heard, it sounds like the version they did at Latitude festival 2012

3.17 blows me away every fkn time 🍻

LOVE this!

Fifa 11

AWSOM!!!

totally agree with bashby170 -- "this song is close to perfect" there's a lot to enjoy, these dudes are impressive. quite inspiring to say the least!

i wish i could see them live

THIS VIDEO IS INTERLACED !

See them in Poland.. Heineken Opener music festival un July 2010~!! :)

this song is close to perfect

4:50 onwards is just heaven... I cant explain this to someone who hasnt heard it, simply brilliant! I just wish someone like Justin Timberlake made this song with an awesome video with dance moves to match.

glad this is on fifa 11 quality !!!

Waiting for You in poland Gdynia opener festival ;]

@hickeye It was on the radio all the time in Norway :)

FUV FTW

@Galoag2012 what a creative comment... so original and clever.

@avedic yeah im miss him too

Can anyone post the chords to this song? I found some on ultimate guitar but they aren't the same as in the video

Where is a good live version of this song with a crowd?

Give the lad a beard n he's serpico! Luv it :*/

I got a fever

FIFA 11!!!

@digitalashlee22 watch the 2080 video with the red background for a performance.

Is that a Rickenbacker? If so, awesome!

whooooa is that bassist the guy who normally has the creeper mustache and long hair? very strange to see sudden hair changes. but yes, this song rocks. I love seeing complex songs made live.

GTA 5

I'm a little confused here. I've been really into Yeasayer's music but I admit I've rarely seen them play live (even on video). I didn't know that Anand sang but in this song he sound even better than Chris. Does anyone know how long Anand has been singing lead for them and whether Chris is still lead on other songs?

What is that professor from Heroes doing in an awesome band?

@vifa3663 its "more cowbell"

@cullen1298 I agree, Luke was the rightful drummer for Yeasayer. Why did he left band in the first place?

@joshingledew they are so amazing live! i pooped when i saw them and pee d a little and then went home and pooped

Hot ship

@ShaneSpear02 and the cure is Cowbell!

@cullen1298 Why did he left the band in the first place. I agree, Luke was the rightful drummer for yeasayer

@RadioDJBorton I don't really think that they concentrate on "lead" vocals because they both use their voices when it sounds better for the song, I feel.

So I just find this band today and they've just split up!

@GlamGlitters21 That's not the lead singer singing in this song.

This is the shit!

what happened to the other drummer ? :(

I want to dance with the bassist

did they change the drummer?

Great Song, Fifa 11 has the best soundtrack

GTA 5 3

(Live in mirror park)*

@wesleyburkart13 My morning Jacket takes the cake.

@wesleyburkart13 What about Wilco, Radiohead? They've done their best stuff in the last 10 years.

existen 7 personas que no saben apresiar una verdadera cancion

@benjimonkeyscrotum They had some internal issues with Luke Fasano, therefore they chose someone else. I liked the live energy Luke brought though

@DutchRH no FIFA 11

*I am the globglogabgalab.*

@Swingfinger not really no. i was just being an asshole. i wouldn't even hurt a fly. i love humans i love everything around me. we are all different it's part of this pyschedelic experience. we have different tastes just like there are different races. GOODDD IM HIGH haha

dat bassist is muy gaupo

@stevenv27 i think the reason he looks big is because hes in shots with the indian guy haha

raskaskoneisto is right.

100th comment

@hickeye yeah, but the general public prefers to listen to brainless moneymakers instead. How can people not love this band, their music is so full of love and creative structures!

Isenseven.

i love this band. however.........i am rather sad the old drummer is absent on their 2nd outing into the world. he was a huge part of their initial sound. and while i love the fact that they interchange vocal duties so much, i must say, chris keating's forced breathless soul is more to my liking than the other guy. the other guy is a better singer....but that makes him less compelling and dynamic than chris. imo...

Think they a little less cow bell in the mixing for this..None the less real good on the Musicians parts.

sounds Bollywood......

@KobraCola If i was your "bro" I would put myself up for adoption and gladly accept moving to Josef Fritzl.

this is terrible!!
