That's what Yeasayer are about, proving that you dont need the most sophisticated equipment if you have a brilliant sound. They do play with high tech equipment though, but they know what they are doing!!!
"Hold me like the phone,". When this came out I shared it with my gf. Exposing how cool it is to think about being held the phone. We eventually figured out the truth. I didnt want to believe.
by 'original dude' you mean Chris Keating. The 'dude' you see here singing is Anand Wilder who is an original member of the band that he and Chris had founded.
someday down the road i hope they put together an acoustic album. i always end up back between this performance and the takeaway shows before the album versions. so good.
Oh man! I watched this and thought the African-American gentleman looked like a guy I'd taken a picture of six or seven years ago at a concert here in my hometown. I was right! He is Sinkane! Didn't know he was in Yeasayer!
I really like this more than the version on the album.. too much electronic stuff on the album for my liking, but when they play stripped down and live it sounds so much better to me :)
ahaha, i literally lol'd when i saw that. he's also got it at @1:34. i wonder if there was another segment that we're missing and they just cut in these clips. or maybe they're just trolling us haha
@declan1212 I assume they've recorded it once for the track, then just re done it a couple of other times so they could get enough camera angles.. between which he's obviously decided the light got brighter.
because Yeasayer are about expansion, experimentation and creativity. How creatively limiting would it be to just make a new albumn sound like the previous? Where is the growth as musicians in that? Yeasayer like to blend electronica into live performance and instruments. They like to push the creative boundries and discover new territories and be a staple as their competitors are. I don't really think that comment is at all valid
I'd be safe if only I could stay with you and (..) my spirit (...) with you. I can't be sure of the other words. I'm assuming this line got cut out to fit the music of the album version of the song.
Yeasayer is the most underrated band in the world
Absolutely beautiful version of this song
Magical hat change at 4:41. What trickery is this!
As my old work colleague would say, you have the eyes of a shithouse rat 😭🧐
This is the best live radio session I have ever heard
Adds a whole new dimension to an already incredible song! Love it
I miss them.
Damm, I didnt thought I could like this song more than what I already do! I have no words to describe how amazing it is..
Loved this version of this song so much, so different and so beautiful. Dreamy

PLEASE SOMEONE PUT THIS ON SPOTIFY 🥺
Love how Anand is literally wearing the music video
so beautiful
Love this song.
This shits so clean
both versions are awesome, and they are too
This sounds even better than the original album release.
I love Anand so much.
Great version. My god.
Way to go, dudes!
Wow, amazing. This version is better than the album version imo.
I believe he says, "I''d be safe if only I could stay with you and if I my spirit slept with you." Hope that helps.
I thought maybe "lift my spirits up with you".
"If my spirit slept with you" is definitely what I heard. Take the 2nd "I" out of your sentence and you're exactly right.
i didn't think this song would work acoustically without all the synth pop bling, but it's good. lead singer looks like a former member of menudo.
this makes my moustache curl.
Fantastic!!!!
great song and story. luv
So good!
this is crazy good i love it
Muy buena versión
wow !!! nice find !
i want to go to Hawaii i dont no why

They need to put out an acoustic album!!!!

I think he was just filling in. He toured with them I think around the fragrant world tour
Best version i think
GTA, FIFA
I learn how to convert video to mp3 and cut it. Thanks to this video.
Wow!
This is amazing i like this version better!
I really like this more than the version on the album.. too much electronic stuff on the album for my liking, but when they play stripped down and live it sounds so much better to me :)
Nice version.

@declan1212 I assume they've recorded it once for the track, then just re done it a couple of other times so they could get enough camera angles.. between which he's obviously decided the light got brighter.

Hi Can you please share the guitar tabs for this? Very much appreciated!

I'd be safe if only I could stay with you and (..) my spirit (...) with you.
I can't be sure of the other words. I'm assuming this line got cut out to fit the music of the album version of the song.
