From somebody who listens to Metal and genres alike for the majority of each day. I always love taking a break and wind down listening to Young the Giant. This is one of the few bands I've found that I can always listen to and love every second while I do.
+Johnny BSN I feel the same :) nothing wrong with loving different types of music. personally, i love classical (esp choral), piano covers, metal (esp prog,black,folk), and alt rock like YtG
This song made me put down the book I was studying and walk across the room to check my computer so I could find out who this was/what song it was. (It was on autoplay) Such an amazing, compelling song.
This song is so dynamic... I mean, I can't even begin to describe.. compared to songs that have over 500+Billion,Trillion views, this songs is Gold! This is a song that is perfect for special occasions with friends and family, for instance a rooftop-party in the evening or a beach party with candle light etc !
I literally begging for an in the open of this song. This is my all time favorite. I can't even count the amount of times I've sobbed in the shower while singing this. PLEASE
This album deserves universal acclaim... hands down one of the best bands out today.. its nice to know that theres still a band doing there own thing and being unique. i hope These guys become the definition and pioneer of a great generation of music to come
This like an epilogue if my favorite song in their last album "islands" and camera is now my favorite song in this album. Truly in love ♡ this song makes me feel that the world has stopped and I'm just floating on a cloud. Keep up the good work guys!
Don't take this offensively, but I'd really like to know what you find so beautiful in this song.. why is it incredible? Yes, his voice sounds very incredible and powerful, but what is he even trying to say in this song? What's the deep meaning to this?
This album is in the same shelf as the one from Keane " Hope and Fears ", and these song it's by far the best of the album, get yourself a good pair of headset and listen to this, you will have to admit it's a completely different level experience. JUST AWESOME
This song is very touching to me. YTG got my stubborn young mind INTO music. I'm obsessed with cameras. Its my livelihood. My name is Cameron. I have a bad self image. So no cameras has some sort of double meaning for me. Wasted 5 years Obsessed with another artist. Missed this song when it came out till now. Now I'm awake. I'm sure I'm alone addressing my own personal meaning here but I'm in my bag so I'll write. Were all searching for peace. Hope you find peace.
[Verse 1] It's a mystery night Like a sawed-off shot gun In the morning light it comes to anyone All the strings that follow you And the things they're tied to My love's behind you colored by the snow The shine is gone I used to know what made you wet Now I'm searching for it Cause it's a mystery all the same Not to get you back [Chorus 1] On holiday With a broken camera And all I say Is "I could be happier" I could be happier [Verse 2] It's a mystery night And I thought we had fun But in the morning light Your cars already gone Do the things I wanna do Not the ones I'm supposed to Why can't I get close to The man I saw in me When I was young [Chorus 2] On holiday With a broken camera And all I say Is "I could be happier" And all I say Is "I could be happier" [Verse 3] All up the way I'm free of all the shadows that follow me Of all the branches up to break With all my faith Destiny and fate Cause I never wanna go there tonight The cameras, cameras I never wanna open my eyes The cameras, the cameras [Interlude] No cameras No cameras [Outro] Cause I never wanna go there tonight I never wanna open up my eyes

"Why can't I get close to the man I saw in me when I was young?"
Here I am, November 2019, almost 6 years and I haven't figured out how to get over this album. Simply a masterpiece.
Never have I related to something more
Still here
The guitarist is my neighbor and this is the first time I've actually listened to his bands song. They're amazing
Larisa what that's so cool you're so lucky lol
Larisa JACOB TILLEY IS YOUR NEIGHBOR?
AJDKDIWUSUC WHAT OMG THATS AMAZING WHAT THE HECKKKK
No wayyyyy
Still your neighbor?
This is such a hard song to find live, and they need to make it in the open too. This might be my favorite song by them.
For me not might, it is.
I was lucky enough to hear it live in 2014 in Indy. Wished it was played more live, too.
We scream for them to play it every time when we see them live. No go
i think were all in agreement that this band does something significantly positive to your being.
I'm so glad I discovered this band. Saved my life.

Johnny BSN I like your profile pic 🐮🔪
I am still as much in love with this song as I was when the album first came out.🖤
By far one of the greatest bands of our time. This is music for our generation. from Islands to Camera to Titus was Born. Love these guys
Sameer's voice is so dreamy
This song made me put down the book I was studying and walk across the room to check my computer so I could find out who this was/what song it was. (It was on autoplay) Such an amazing, compelling song.
This song just makes me feel like I'm in a parallel universe...I just love it so much. I constantly have it on repeat
Yes it's awesome!!! I love this.
Freal.
And "Repeat" is so good too! ;-)
Sue Swayzee yessss!!!!!! Life goes underneath us! 1000 leafs below!
This is gold. And I agree this needs an In the Open version
This song is so dynamic... I mean, I can't even begin to describe.. compared to songs that have over 500+Billion,Trillion views, this songs is Gold! This is a song that is perfect for special occasions with friends and family, for instance a rooftop-party in the evening or a beach party with candle light etc !
There's only 7 billion people on the planet.
So no one plays this video more than once? You think 7 billion people play this song only once and than never again? Think big brother..
+MM D sadly, if you watch a video and repeat it, it still counts as one view .
How has this song only 507,749 views.. this should be way higher already.. I just don't get life.
Come over. I was searching for new music and I think I hit gold. Oh my my. This guy has such a soothing voice.
this song feels like an epilogue to "islands"
I was thinking the same!!
when you said it...i felt it
It is definitely the same key until it hits that sweet percussion in camera.
my two favorite YTG songs by far.
Yes!! I can listen to this and Islands back to back for hours.
i'm straight and i have a major man crush on this guy
Sean Bosworth lol id love to sing with this guy sometime, its just something that's on the top of my bucket list
I literally begging for an in the open of this song. This is my all time favorite. I can't even count the amount of times I've sobbed in the shower while singing this. PLEASE
How can they always put out such soul gripping music
the open version that got away
This album deserves universal acclaim... hands down one of the best bands out today.. its nice to know that theres still a band doing there own thing and being unique. i hope These guys become the definition and pioneer of a great generation of music to come
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE STUDIO VERSION OF THIS SONG FOR TWO YEARS AND I AM NOT DISAPPOINTED!
Yeah, I've been listening to one of the live versions on my ipod but now I get the real deal! finally lol. I think I like both equally though.
Young the Giant is Pure Perfection. Camera is nothing short of greatness.
One of my personal faves off the album. It makes me feel sort of.. sad, but hell.. I love this song so much.
I understand. But the part where he yells "I could be happier" And that part on, is like, the dreamiest part ever.
2:58 my fav partt this is a masterpiece
ditto
same!
still waiting for them do this in the open. what a masterpiece
1:53 takes my breath away and steals my heart everytime
Underrated band. Love all the albums
This like an epilogue if my favorite song in their last album "islands" and camera is now my favorite song in this album. Truly in love ♡ this song makes me feel that the world has stopped and I'm just floating on a cloud. Keep up the good work guys!
I can picture myself sailing off to an island while listening to this song. So beautiful!
It's like opening up a small, dry wound in the heart everytime I listen.
Please perform this out In the Open!!!!!!!
Of the of the best songs on the Album

WOW! This song is astounding! So F-ing beautiful! Thank you YTG for writing such incredible music. You make souls sing.
Don't take this offensively, but I'd really like to know what you find so beautiful in this song.. why is it incredible? Yes, his voice sounds very incredible and powerful, but what is he even trying to say in this song? What's the deep meaning to this?
Henny Med Agree...Thank you!

Me, too. It gives me this strange, but really good feeling.
I can't believe I heard this live
This album is in the same shelf as the one from Keane " Hope and Fears ", and these song it's by far the best of the album, get yourself a good pair of headset and listen to this, you will have to admit it's a completely different level experience. JUST AWESOME
It's a completely different lvl of experience seeing them live
Their India documentary brought me here and I couldn't be happier
I didn't used to like this kind of stuff but i love this band.
This song is very touching to me. YTG got my stubborn young mind INTO music. I'm obsessed with cameras. Its my livelihood. My name is Cameron. I have a bad self image. So no cameras has some sort of double meaning for me. Wasted 5 years Obsessed with another artist. Missed this song when it came out till now. Now I'm awake. I'm sure I'm alone addressing my own personal meaning here but I'm in my bag so I'll write. Were all searching for peace. Hope you find peace.

This song is transcendental

[Verse 1]
It's a mystery night
Like a sawed-off shot gun
In the morning light it comes to anyone
All the strings that follow you
And the things they're tied to
My love's behind you colored by the snow
The shine is gone
I used to know what made you wet
Now I'm searching for it
Cause it's a mystery all the same
Not to get you back
[Chorus 1]
On holiday
With a broken camera
And all I say
Is "I could be happier"
I could be happier
[Verse 2]
It's a mystery night
And I thought we had fun
But in the morning light
Your cars already gone
Do the things I wanna do
Not the ones I'm supposed to
Why can't I get close to
The man I saw in me
When I was young
[Chorus 2]
On holiday
With a broken camera
And all I say
Is "I could be happier"
And all I say
Is "I could be happier"
[Verse 3]
All up the way
I'm free of all the shadows that follow me
Of all the branches up to break
With all my faith
Destiny and fate
Cause I never wanna go there tonight
The cameras, cameras
I never wanna open my eyes
The cameras, the cameras
[Interlude]
No cameras
No cameras
[Outro]
Cause I never wanna go there tonight
I never wanna open up my eyes
It's a mystery night
Like a sawed-off shot gun
In the morning light it comes to anyone
All the strings that follow you
And the things they're tied to
My love's behind you colored by the snow
The shine is gone
I used to know what made you wet
Now I'm searching for it
'Cause it's a mystery all the same
Not to get you back
On holiday
With a broken camera
And all I say
Is "I could be happier"
I could be happier
It's a mystery night
And I thought we had fun
But in the morning light
Your cars already gone
Do the things I wanna do
Not the ones I'm supposed to
Why can't I get close to
The man I saw in me
When I was young
On holiday
With a broken camera
And all I say
Is "I could be happier"
And all I say
Is "I could be happier"
Higher up away
I'm free of all the shadows that follow me
Of all the branches up to break
With all my faith
Destiny and fate
'Cause I never wanna go there tonight
The cameras, the camera
I never wanna open up my eyes
The cameras, the cameras
Your cameras, your camera
'Cause I never wanna go away tonight
I never wanna open up my eyes
Am really liking their sound
magical.

Would love to see YTG in concert...
Their concert was one of the best concerts I've ever been too. I could listen to Sameer sing all day.
1:21 is where this piece of music becomes potentially life-changing.
Lovely!
