"... It's a silly time to learn to swim, when you start to drown, it's a silly time to learn to swim on your way down..." Best part of this amazing lyrics, imo.
i dont care if i ever get to meet them or hangout with them im so blessed that i got to hear there music before i died its like there measage saved me from my self they are so beautiful inside that they brought me back to life and i am ready to embrace the life thats left in me now im so happy
Thanks sisters, you help me remember better days, listening to y'all at 16 before school, after school, summer. (I gave Jack White my number-he hasn't called-a girl can dream)
It's too bad you didn't get to see them when they were out your way. They played in Asbury Parkl, NJ a few years ago before I knew about them and I'm hoping they come back to this area soon. If they play in New York I'll definitely go see them there. I'm glad y ou are a big fan too. That's great!
Alligator, Walking With a Gost, I Was a Fool, Now I'm All Messed Up, Closer, Living Room, The Con, Call It Off, Arrow, Not With You (the live version from Get Along is really good!), Back in Your Head, Ninteen and basically every song by Tegan and Sara cause they are amazing! :)
"It's a silly time to learn to swim When you start to drown." Wow, that part really stood out to me, especially since I can't swim to even save myself and I actually was about to drown once, not metaphorically. You'd think that I would actually learn how to swim, so I could save myself the next time if it happens again, but instead, I just stay away from deep water.
I listened you from Easter Europe from Middle of Nowhere and I really enjoy your music! Two wonderful woman wanna save my Koala bear! I promise you did it, nothing to fear!
I know what you mean. I love the fact that T&S have a large group of devoted fans and I sort of think it is nice that we can relate to them and enjoy their music. I'm glad that you like them as much as I do. :)
I accidentally learned the Japanese ( Munson ) colour wheel when I was listening to this mixtape on repeat off 24th 1/2 Polk Avenue in Nordeast Minneapolis one time when my friend Corey slipped me a Ritalin 2mg. Thanks, Tegan! Thanks, Sara! I passed my exam. Thanks, Corey! ¿•
Hey dairyland, I am so glad you uploaded this. I'm a big fan of T&S and enjoyed this alot. I'm glad you are a big fan of theirs also. I've never seen them live but I want to the next time they are on tour and come around. Their songs are just so unique I think. Once again thanks! :)
Ahh, FINALLY! Thank you thank you! I have a tattoo that says "It's a silly time to learn to swim when you start to drown" I love Them, and this is my favorite song, obviously.
I too am a very weak swimmer.. It's funny because I was born at home so I'm supposed to be a 'water baby', yet I've always had a tremendous fear of deep water. Maybe it's not good for one's first conscious moments to be of drowning in a bathtub... Or maybe we both drowned in previous lives and the fear of water somehow carried over to this one :o In any case, I'm content being a land mammal for now :)
much prefer this to the new, I hadnt kept up with them for a while and then heard their new stuff a year back or so, still them, very catchy, but not my ideal preference forcho
@kemplerbrave Yes I am a huge tegan and sara fan. and I would love to see them live as well, I watched the trailer for 'get along' and saw they put on an intimate little show in my hometown of Vancouver, and that I missed it... I nearly wept. N yes you are very welcome. :)
Could you just imagine?!?! I would sit for hours debating on something profound to say. Or maybe I'd be impulsive and just text immediately and be like, I LOVE YOU.
aw I'm really sorry for your loss, my heart goes out to you :( it sounds like she was a woman with wonderful taste; and you are very welcome. If listening to this song has comforted you at all I would be overjoyed.
Tegan and Sara said on The Con DVD that before that album, the vocals for each song had only been recorded by one of them, they never sang in the same song on the studio albums. Live, obviously, they did sing the different parts in each other's songs. So if I'm right in thinking Tegan wrote this song then she sang it all; if the parts sound different it will just be because they were recorded at different times.
the first pic makes me think that the dialogue during the shoot would have gone something like this: S: "Well hello, there ma'am" T: "Eew. Seriously, Sara get away from me you are so weird" XD
@Louisiannnahelloo It was in an interview with tegan, if you type in 'tegan and sara my number song meaning' on google it's the first one that pops up :) It's a super long interview though so if you wanna read the full story behind the song hit 'ctrl-f' on the interview page n search the keywords 'my number'
Actually, it's Tegan's song. Sara does backup. And the lines: "Watching old baseball games, And low budget telethons. Ain't like watching you yourself, When you yourself is on. Got time to wander to waste and to whine" and of course it's amazing either way.
it is both of them that sing it, search tegan and sara my number live, they played it on lettermen years ago - you will see who sings what. both are very talented!
'Over who will kill the last Koala Bear and who in death will love him more?'
Such a good line. Always sticks in the memory.
Instant tears!
Every time i listen to this song it always hits close to home (emotionally)! anyone else have the same thing i am feeling?
Same
"... It's a silly time to learn to swim, when you start to drown, it's a silly time to learn to swim on your way down..."
Best part of this amazing lyrics, imo.
I'm gonna win the endless war over who kills the last koala bear and who in death will love him more
Love it.
Their voices sound amazing in this song!!!!
I love this song. Tegan and Sara are my ultimate, most favorite musicians.
I'm so glad I clicked on this video!!!
i dont care if i ever get to meet them or hangout with them im so blessed that i got to hear there music before i died its like there measage saved me from my self they are so beautiful inside that they brought me back to life and i am ready to embrace the life thats left in me now im so happy

If you're fitted into a particular genre, you've
already dated yourself.
That's why these twins are so refreshing.
“It’s a silly time to learn to swim when you start to drown, it’s a silly time to learn to swim on the way down.”
This has always been one of my favorite Tegan and Sara songs
It's too bad you didn't get to see them when they were out your way. They played in Asbury Parkl, NJ a few years ago before I knew about them and I'm hoping they come back to this area soon. If they play in New York I'll definitely go see them there. I'm glad y ou are a big fan too. That's great!

their voices Always sound amazing❤
"It's a silly time to learn to swim

I love all their songs but this one is special
God damn...this song is sooo good:)
is one of my favorite songs
I really love tegan and sara♥
I know what you mean. I love the fact that T&S have a large group of devoted fans and I sort of think it is nice that we can relate to them and enjoy their music. I'm glad that you like them as much as I do. :)
Jenn Surabian BREAULT!!! this song reminds of us In the gaspig singin like we can
This mix goes hard
I think they are the only ones to be able to say koala bear in a song and it still sound AMAZING!
Mesmeric, haunting, thank you!
A pair of singing to see, are unstoppable!
I accidentally learned the Japanese ( Munson ) colour wheel when I was listening to this mixtape on repeat off 24th 1/2 Polk Avenue in Nordeast Minneapolis one time when my friend Corey slipped me a Ritalin 2mg.
Thanks, Tegan! Thanks, Sara! I passed my exam. Thanks, Corey!

This should've been used for an epic movie trailer.

Finally a studio version, I love you so much for this :D
thank you so much for uploading! c:
Love this song
Love this song, best from the album i think.
I almost drowned when I was little. Life flashed before my eyes. Haven't been swimming since really. Can't even see when water gets in my eyes.
so good
you're awesome for uploading this! :)
This is too good to not have its own music video.
Excellent vocal arragements.
It is Definitely Sara second! After you listen to them over and over again for 3 years you can gather who is who singing =)
I'm glad they changed the style for If It Was You after this.
Ahh, FINALLY! Thank you thank you! I have a tattoo that says "It's a silly time to learn to swim when you start to drown" I love Them, and this is my favorite song, obviously.
I think this is more than music.
This is Incredible :D
"Over who kills the last koala bear.. or who in death will love him more"
FAV LINE.
wow... their voices!
I too am a very weak swimmer.. It's funny because I was born at home so I'm supposed to be a 'water baby', yet I've always had a tremendous fear of deep water. Maybe it's not good for one's first conscious moments to be of drowning in a bathtub... Or maybe we both drowned in previous lives and the fear of water somehow carried over to this one :o In any case, I'm content being a land mammal for now :)
Oh my jesus i love this asdfghjkl;
much prefer this to the new, I hadnt kept up with them for a while and then heard their new stuff a year back or so, still them, very catchy, but not my ideal preference forcho
Same..this is what I grew up with in my late teens.
my anthem
Great photos :)
Nice work
Up until recently, they didn't collaborate on writing their songs. But they both have always come together for performing them.
freakiiinnnn love them. i wish my name was tegan tooo
I Like This!!!:)
Their early stuff seems to be very Ani Difranco inspired.. which makes me incredibly happy! Even though I love all of their stuff :)
@kemplerbrave Yes I am a huge tegan and sara fan. and I would love to see them live as well, I watched the trailer for 'get along' and saw they put on an intimate little show in my hometown of Vancouver, and that I missed it... I nearly wept. N yes you are very welcome. :)
My new favorite song :)
Thanks!! :) I'll check it out
Teetee sasa my beloved
Could you just imagine?!?! I would sit for hours debating on something profound to say.
Or maybe I'd be impulsive and just text immediately and be like, I LOVE YOU.
deep voice
If I saved you from drowning,
Promise me you'll never go away.
aw I'm really sorry for your loss, my heart goes out to you :( it sounds like she was a woman with wonderful taste; and you are very welcome. If listening to this song has comforted you at all I would be overjoyed.
Sara does:)
This song is a lot of shades of purple and blue
I'm sold. I'm buying your album.
What, its totally Tegan!
Who cares who is actually singing, they are awesome!!!
Tegan and Sara said on The Con DVD that before that album, the vocals for each song had only been recorded by one of them, they never sang in the same song on the studio albums. Live, obviously, they did sing the different parts in each other's songs.

S: "Well hello, there ma'am"
T: "Eew. Seriously, Sara get away from me you are so weird" XD
Nice. : )
Dani Shay's cover was really great of this song!!!!!
hell yes, it's Sara. c:
THEY'RE PLAYING THIS ON THE CRYBABY TOUR 😭
most all of "heartthrob" is realy good, its more pop-y. but all of there stuff is AWESOME!!!!
I want to be Tegan and/or Sara when I grow up! They're only a year older than me,but a girl can dream ♥️
Tattooed this "tegan and sara" on my back. I LOVE Tegan and Sara!
YOUR MUSIC IS AMAZING and I never tire of hearing. :)
It's Tegan :)
Funny. YOU must need to watch that DVD. They BOTH sang on ALL the songs on that album. The one who writes it led and other backed up.
@Louisiannnahelloo It was in an interview with tegan, if you type in 'tegan and sara my number song meaning' on google it's the first one that pops up :) It's a super long interview though so if you wanna read the full story behind the song hit 'ctrl-f' on the interview page n search the keywords 'my number'
Actually, it's Tegan's song. Sara does backup. And the lines:
"Watching old baseball games,
And low budget telethons.
Ain't like watching you yourself,
When you yourself is on.
Got time to wander to waste and to whine"
and of course it's amazing either way.
first Tegan, then Sara (:
if we're talking about that minute.. yes it's Sara, just listen to her!
it is both of them that sing it, search tegan and sara my number live, they played it on lettermen years ago - you will see who sings what. both are very talented!
tegan comes in first, sara second. for this song.
@Analfeber Yeah I just assumed if you liked 'the ocean' you woulda liked this one too :P two of my fave t&s songs.
I believe it's sara :)
