i don’t know why this channel ended. if it was because people weren’t watching, i’d like to say that people were flat wrong. it’s such a beautiful addition to the blogotheque style of music videos. thoughtfully shot, the intros are so beautifully, authentically human, and the music curated with such a focus on artistry. whoever you are who shot these, i hope you’re doing very well, and making even more beautiful stuff that makes you and others happy. and if not, i hope you keep making these videos. it was working.
Was a passion project I made in my spare time. Many other channels started doing the same, but as a business model (Mahogany etc). There comes a point where volume devalues what's unique and money devalues the intent. I didn't want to be a part of that. As a creative experiment, I'm humbled by the audiences and artists who appreciate it.
@@watchlistentell this is by far one of my favorite videos on the Internet, so I can definitely say I'm happy you captured this moment to share with all of us. Much thanks 🤙🏼
I also think that the artists got something out of this too. It is a change from playing in front of thousands on a stage. They look more relaxed and I can feel they played from the heart. Playing in a public park and jamming out will always bring a uplifting feeling. As a viewer it is something special. Thanks WTL!
2023 and this recording will always have a special place in my heart. It’s bringing back so many memories of a different period in my life whilst staying totally timeless.
I remember myself finding this video when it had 100 views, and now I come back to watch the video- and it has over a million. And it's 6 years I'm listening to this song. strange
Young Karl More an acknowledgement of how hilariously shy and awkward they are but it kind of just adds to the greatness of the video. Still, Bombay Bicycle Club =
This band have such a natural tone to their sound, its hard to find musicians like this these days. I really hope they go far as they are seriously underrated
This is, simply, a perfect song, and Bombay Bycicle Club are one of the best bands (if not THE best) on this planet. I hope they'll get the recognition they deserve.
For the longest time I thought he was saying "cemetery tower"....now that I know it's "sanitary towel", I understand their previously confusing gigglyness. God love 'em. :)
I absolutely have my favorite acoustic performances, But can not help over seven years keep listening to this. Amazing sound so perfectly orchestrated!
I hate how most people only like songs because they're in the charts, or because they're recent. It's gotten to the point where the songs in the charts all sound the same. But because they're new, people automatically like them. It makes me sad to see what music has turned into. This is what a good song sounds like. Not auto-tuned, no stupid video, just proper music and real singing. Some people have forgotten what that is.
watchlistentell was one of the best. All these years later, I can see why you stopped! "There comes a point where volume devalues what's unique and money devalues the intent" - truer words never typed mate.
Bombay Bicycle Club can basically pull off any one of their studio recorded songs just as stunningly in acoustic form, it's refeshing to find such a raw and honest band.
Watch listen tell! You were such an inspiration to me growing up. I dreamt of making a band and finding you to film us in moments like this. I miss your videos, please come back! I come back to all your videos when I’m feeling down they make me feel great! Been a follower since 2012
These guys really can hold thier heads high in the "inde" world of the modern age. They have really given something special and remarkable that has been unseen from previous bands of similar genre. The music can manage itself in almost any tempo, and volume, managing to keep the bruitaly georgeous lyrics with some astonishing instrumental flares. These guy's are far too kind to us! I feel like saying "really bombay bicycle club, you shouldn't have!". My greatest respect to you 4 boys.
This is still hands-down my favourite Watchlistentell. Although Absynthe Minded's "Envoi" and TDCC's "Something Good Can Work" are close seconds. But this is just...beautiful. So beautiful.
Anyone notice how Jack blinks his eyes at the beginning of this video he's so adorable OMG and the fact that he's such an awesome musician just adds to the reason I love him!!!
This is the video I play at this time of year where it's cold and wet, to remind me that Spring is coming soon. It's coming. I cannot wait for those hazy sunshine days...
Another quality video, big respect to what you guys are doing, and to Bombay Bicycle Club. thank you for bringing beautiful music and videos like this to the world! Pure Bliss.
just so you know everyone , this hiatus will result in changing the band , they'll come with a different style and different music so don't whine later you should be ready and accept the change .
Even the stuff from their latest album sounds beautiful played acoustically because they create such great songs. ruclips.net/video/2MXPrus4bMk/видео.html
Lyrics: It's that ancient love That you won't outgrow It's the fee you pay It's the debt you owe Is that subtle way That you throw me down I am inches above The dust on the ground I await your call I await your crown Lets change our roads And chase them all around Is that subtle way You throw me down I am inches above The dust on the ground And all is quiet All is quiet now And all is silent All is silent now Now I don't hide it I don't hide it now It's that ancient love That just moves along And there's an itch so slight Even when you're gone Well I met you right But I kept your wrong And I must wait until I've found the ground that you are walking on And all is quiet All is quiet now And all is silent All is silent now Now I don't hide it I don't hide it now Now I don't hide it I don't hide it now Songwriters: Jack Steadman

@@watchlistentell i wanna thank you still for sharing this still. used to always check up on your channel back when i was in high school

@@Cloudlylofi They certainly seemed to nail it.
Jack Steadman is one of the greatest musicians of our time. Music straight from the heart.
Stop making fake accounts, Jack
2023 and this recording will always have a special place in my heart. It’s bringing back so many memories of a different period in my life whilst staying totally timeless.
this was the soundtrack of the first love of my life
2020. Still got me comin back🖤
This song gets me through the dark times when I can't sleep and helps me relax and slip away
Hello. I first listened to this song a lot back in 2013. You looked like newbies and I was young. Time flies and I'm in my 30s now. Sigh.
I remember myself finding this video when it had 100 views, and now I come back to watch the video- and it has over a million.
And it's 6 years I'm listening to this song. strange
Are you still listening to it?
Basti Halligalli yes, indeed I am..
I also keep coming back, one of my favorite performances ever and i've probably seen it 50 times. Never will i forget it.
So it’s 10 years now. Still coming back.
@@dylanaspine :)
He's the reason i play the guitar :) thx Jack!
How was this 13 years ago... My god time starts to fly as you get older.
Been listening ever since it came out! 10 years.. insane!!!!
Their love is so genuine. I just can't find a better word.
In my opinion, this is a lot better than the studio-recorded version. This just captures the place and the moment. Perfect, spot on, amazing!
they look like such babies! love them all for how far they've come and the journeys they've been on
As a heterosexual male I can safely say that Jack Steadman is the most adorable human being on the planet. And an excellent songwriter and musician.
Young Karl More an acknowledgement of how hilariously shy and awkward they are but it kind of just adds to the greatness of the video. Still, Bombay Bicycle Club =
This is definitely the best version of this song! Thanks for sharing!
Still coming back to this channel 🥹 so much memories
Same 🥹❤️
At the beginning everyone looks so childish laughing with such innocence. :D
Love BBC.
Always go back to this. It's so beautiful
Props on a great performance, especially knowing how hard playing is without a strap, having to wedge the guitar there with your arm
He is so adorable in the beginning.
Fuck man nearly 7 years. Still awesome.
ابو ق
10 now
It's raining outside and I can't think of anything in the world to listen to better than this right now
This channel holds a special place in my heart ❤️
I feel the same way ❤
i love the bassist's surprised little grin when jack mentions the sanitary towel at the start
This band have such a natural tone to their sound, its hard to find musicians like this these days. I really hope they go far as they are seriously underrated
:) Indeed they did.
I think it's safe to say they did.
@@stephenbeard4747 yep! Seen them many times since and they just get better and better 👌
2019. Still listening.
2020
2021
I can’t believe this is from 12 years ago. Such a beautiful song
This is, simply, a perfect song, and Bombay Bycicle Club are one of the best bands (if not THE best) on this planet. I hope they'll get the recognition they deserve.
This will always be my favorite song, I miss them
His voice gives me actual goosebumps. Gorgeous
I love how they're all trying to keep a straight face and avoid laughing in the introduction.
what a beautiful version of a beautiful song
Modest, nice and very talented boys that's why I love them.They're just sitting on the grass and playing their music. Beautiful.
I love his body language and his facial expressions. He is totally caught up in the song.
Years and years later, im still coming back
For the longest time I thought he was saying "cemetery tower"....now that I know it's "sanitary towel", I understand their previously confusing gigglyness.
God love 'em. :)
I absolutely have my favorite acoustic performances, But can not help over seven years keep listening to this. Amazing sound so perfectly orchestrated!
Years later, i still come back to listen to this version of the song over the original

Pressure from Sub/followers/views/likes also warps intent. Less felt like more.
This guy is a genius hiding in plain sight.
Discovered these guys here. Still love them 10yrs later. Thank you WLT.

Comments like this make me feel great too.
These guys really can hold thier heads high in the "inde" world of the modern age.

these guys are the band of the generation.
they're terribly underrated.
and i love it.
Jack " standing next to a sanitary towel"
Suren says to himself *dont laugh suren, your better than Jamie!*
'and we're standing nex to... a sanitary towel'
MADE. MY. DAY
Sad to hear this has come to an end. The way you captured their (the artists) essence will be missed.
brilliant song, "Well I met you right, but I kept you wrong..." really feel those lyrics...
Glad i'm up late tonight, I stumbled upon "WLT". Love you Brits and all your great songwriting.
I love this version....much better than the CD one! ;)
Roland Nikrandt exactly my thoughts on the video!
The Album one is really good too. Probably the best song in the album.
When I watch this I feel like I'm there, standing next to him. Watch Listen Tell is truly magical.
Anyone notice how Jack blinks his eyes at the beginning of this video he's so adorable OMG and the fact that he's such an awesome musician just adds to the reason I love him!!!
Listened to this song when there was 50k views and I still listen to it everyday. Great tune.
Jack Steadman is quite possibly the cutest guy ever. I saw them last year at Glastonbury and he just grinned the whole way through their set.
Spiritual lyrics man . My mate slatts introduced me to this band
This is the video I play at this time of year where it's cold and wet, to remind me that Spring is coming soon. It's coming.
I cannot wait for those hazy sunshine days...
Thank you for helping me find BBC back in '09!
Im so in love with these boys. Im so in love with this song. Bravo boys, bravo. Bring back the music.
This is what music should sound like, this is what keeps the spirit of the 60's and 70's legends alive.
the most important video on youtube for me
Bombay bicycle club are beautiful. I love every one of their songs, and his singing voice is unusually wonderful.
Another quality video, big respect to what you guys are doing, and to Bombay Bicycle Club.
thank you for bringing beautiful music and videos like this to the world!
Pure Bliss.
This is probably my favourite song in the world, and Ed's little smirk at the beginning just melts my heart.. :')
i love the way the camera switches between the singer, then the bicycle, then back to the singer 0:58
when they started to grin in the beginning, my heart melted away
such a beautiful song!
You know cause...straps are too mainstream.
I will always love this song and WLT for all the beautiful music I found here
This will never not be ruddy brilliant.
just so you know everyone , this hiatus will result in changing the band , they'll come with a different style and different music so don't whine later you should be ready and accept the change .

I LOVE HIS VOICE!!!
Hearing the wind blow was amazing. I get lost in Bombay Bicycle Club.
they are looking like a hand full of schoolboys after school making some music. Still love this so so much! Thank you
So beautiful, so dreamy..
i love the whole groove he's got going when he plays, its awesome!
I seriously can't understand how people can dislike this. Words can't describe how beautiful this is.
That silly grin...crazy how happy authentic music like this makes me
I love BBC and this composition is so lovely.
so relaxing just listening to this song with the rain on my window panes
i remember favoriting this video only to discover i had already favorited it before. so good.
how u guys gel in with the melody is beautiful....!
god his voice makes me...shiver? actually shiver doesnt justify it enough. i cant explain it but his voice just does things to me.
if only i could come across things like this in the park, this is better then the original
I feel a lot of energy while I am listening to this...
...that's something amazing...
Lyrics:
It's that ancient love
That you won't outgrow
It's the fee you pay
It's the debt you owe
Is that subtle way
That you throw me down
I am inches above
The dust on the ground
I await your call
I await your crown
Lets change our roads
And chase them all around
Is that subtle way
You throw me down
I am inches above
The dust on the ground
And all is quiet
All is quiet now
And all is silent
All is silent now
Now I don't hide it
I don't hide it now
It's that ancient love
That just moves along
And there's an itch so slight
Even when you're gone
Well I met you right
But I kept your wrong
And I must wait until I've found the ground that you are walking on
And all is quiet
All is quiet now
And all is silent
All is silent now
Now I don't hide it
I don't hide it now
Now I don't hide it
I don't hide it now
Songwriters: Jack Steadman
1:00 a dude with a bicycle rolls by. He must be part of the club
Hahahahah
Best song I have ever heard hands down!
I like the cheeky smile they all have after the sanitary tower reference
i love eds little smile when jack says sanitary towel :D
Sweet voice, mandoline, djembe and guitar skills everyone!
Saw these guys last night in Glasgow. MIND BLOWING!
such a good song. The depth of field on that camera is stunnnnning.
This many be the only live acoustic set I've ever head-banged to.
He is Highhh :D - you can see all his friends trying not to giggle :D
Ed Nash is so adorable in the beginning. No, he's adorable 24/7.
I Love This Band So Much... They're Just Doing Something They Love To Do,Very Talented.
