- We're First Aid Kit and we're a sisters-duo from Sweden. In the summer of 2008 we did this cover of "Tiger Mountain Peasant Song" by Fleet Foxes.
We went out in the forest this morning and recorded this cover of the wonderful song "Tiger Mountain Peasant Song" by Fleet Foxes, our favourite band right now. We saw them live this weekend in Sweden and it was absolutely amazing. If you get a chance to see them live don't hesitate for a second!

“15 years ago” is outrageous but here I still am listening
They said it was a gift to Fleet Foxes, but really this was a gift to the world.
🤯🤯😱😱
100!
But crazily they still sound exactly the same.
Most young artists 'mature' and change.
These girls already had it from the start.
It is so beautiful, I keep coming back here for years now.
this is historic now
+TheGiannaras2 Where it all began...
totally!!!
TheGiannaras2 nope
Indeed 🙂✨
As we roll into 2020.. still, this stands
I found this song when I was a teenager. Now I’m 32, I have children, and every once and awhile I find myself back here listening to this track. I showed it to someone I loved who passed away, I’ve lost best friends, I’ve lost family, and this song remains here. A monument. It hold such an immense weight over me, and I’ll be honest, I’d never heard the original before finding this, and can’t find the same poignance in that track in comparison to this recording. This is a song I hope is played at my own funeral. It’s seen me through so much loss, so much growth, shit, so much life in general.
Okay.
*hug* I hear ya brother. :)
Aww, beautiful comment ❤️
Came here for a similar reason. Gen Z on TikTok is obsessed with this era of music and style and fashion at the moment….. and it feels so weird to be seeing it all over the internet again. The books I read at that age, the music…. So much is “cool” again and it’s honestly been hard to see and is making me step off the internet. Like damn….. where did the time go?
A friend I used to listen to this with hasn’t talked to me in ten years despite me reaching out and asking what went wrong. A time before so many people I love died, and when I had so much hope for the future and all the adventures I’d have. It’s bittersweet to look back.
@slaphappybullet I get it I think. It's weird being able to look back like that... time passing without mercy...but have you heard their latest music? It's giving me so much hope and joy. Maybe you too?
The fact that they were 14 and 16 is amazing
@David Clinging good to know
David Clinging Oh no. I bet you were sniffing glue then. I tried whiskey swish at 15. But I certainly didn’t display any amazing talent at that age. Or ever, really. Even at 51. Good thing I’ve still got some time to be extraordinary. Still got hope...
They do a beautiful performance at a dinner honoring Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris. You have to watch that! I think it was done maybe four years ago? They wrote a song for Emmylou that's just so touching and beautiful, and Emmylou was in tears!
They were 15 and 17 in this video, but still... :-) Saw them live the first time in October of 2008, pretty great but couldn't imagine what was to follow!
@@Jakal-pw8yq tis beautiful 👍they did America for Paul Simon it was spectacular
One of the most genuine videos on youtube.
... for you...
12 years later....dang. I haven’t watched this since they first uploaded it. Now i feel old. Time flies folks. Enjoy it
same
Same
I've got bad news; the older you get, the quicker time flies.
Yeah I remember watching this too at least a decade ago. Re visited it yesterday and here I am watching it again.
Truth.
the forest echoes with their voices. perfect!
Oceanic One yeah it fit perfectly
Oceanic One looks like a green screen to me.
I dont wanna be that guy but its called reverb
@@darkmagus419 well it's not. This is Sweden
Nope, green screen
I'm sure if someone was walked in the forest and heard that back then, he would have written a song about two beautiful mighty creatures singing there, like some sort of tale
I remember first seeing this video back in the MySpace days, after Fleet Foxes shared it to their page. I've watched it countless times since then.
Hah. I remember MySpace when it was the old facebook.
Music doesn't get much better than this. Really good song, just an acoustic guitar and a pair of great singers with voices that harmonize so well together and everything artificial scaled away. Imagine if you were talking a walk in the woods and suddenly heard... this =)
Anders Öhlund it gets so much better like the original for instance lol
Omg yeah, I love it so much! 3min 1sec have me purely convinced more, way more, needs to be recorded in the woods.
GREETINGS FROM THE GREAT STATE OF ARKANSAS USA THIS IS GREAT MUSIC AND THOSE WOMEN DRESS MODESTLY THANK GOD HOWEVER THEY SHOULD DO BACKUP SINGERS FOR THE LEGENDARY US BAND FROM OUR GREAT STATE OF GEORGIA THE BLACK CROWES THE BEATLES THE ROLLING STONS THE WHO AND ETTA JAMES AND ON AND ON RORI GALLAGER WERE GREAT
THEY LOOK GREAT AND SOUND GREAT THEY DRESS VERY NICELY MODESTLY THEY COULD BECOME GREAT YOU MEAN HOWEVER FAME IS A TRAP NOT GOOD THEY NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM IT AT ALL COST it is not worth it and there is more to life like helping others and not being stingy and respect others help our parents ect ect the poor the homeless God bless yall
@@annaleonardi6299 so don’t take advantage of the system taking advantage of everyone else? Take back the power so those homeless people don’t have to be, because the US is “We the People”. Meaning, if the Govt won’t buck up, we the people will. It’s a modest way of looking at life, it’s universal.
It’s amazing that kids from Sweden can discover and enjoy a little rustic folk band from the Pacific Northwest of America
Fleet Foxes are no longer a 'Little Band'.
It's called the internet
Still the best cover I've ever heard.
Listening in 2017 and still mesmerized :) I found this cover before they got big and it was crazy seeing them evolve like this. These sisters really deserve their success
holisticmaya same :)
Yep - I still like The Big Black and The Blue best of their albums - got it when it came out and just couldn't stop playing it.
For a decade I've come back to this, at least once a year, to calm down. Remind myself there is soul and grace out there.
holisticmaya get a life. Listen to new song
I just saw them on the Graham Norton show. And instantly thought back to this video I came across years ago. Glad they're doing so well and recieving the attention they deserve.
I can't believe how much time has passed! (And that I keep coming back to this video year after year)
+Marcela Torres I belive we are many that does
me too
same
it's archived in my favorites
Same
And so began an amazing musical journey that we are all privileged to take part in...
2021 and can't get over this cover 😭
Same 😢
Same
Been coming here since I was 8 years old :') im 22 now about to be 23
still in 2022
2024
Haven't heard harmonizing like this since Simon & Garfunkel and the Everly Brothers. Whew! Chills!
And then they got to sing Paul Simon's America for him, and he gave them a one man standing ovation.
Check out The Cactus Blossoms. I think you would really like them!
can´t get more pure and beautiful.
Not really in the same ballpark
When this video was first posted, my mother showed me this and said "mary come over here and listen to this beautiful music"...my sister and I continually tried to emulate their sound and listened to it over and over again and I even idolized them. I was only eight years old...and I've come back to this now, 7 years older, and they've toured around America and become so incredibly popular. It makes me so happy to see that these beautiful girls have come so far without me even knowing it. God bless these girls and god bless this music.
Hey you're 21 now how's your life been? Maybe it's time to revisit these amazing lady's again incase you forgot.
2015 and I'm still watching this and lovin it
+Charlotte Bruce
I've been coming back to this cover every few months for years now, and I'm always stuck on it for days at a time.
+Abe Hussein seriously! me too. lol It's stunning and i can't stop!
2016 and still relevant
I can't wait to see them live. I am going ot try to catch a show somewhere, this year.
+Kellyann Conway They are really great live, I got to see them on the Lion's Roar tour at Webster Hall in NYC. Totally charming.
Klara's voice is gold ... ♥
It’s incredible how they spoke directly to the Foeet Foxes: this is a gift to you. Then they go onto these amazing heights in their own career together. I have listened to so much music in 40 years, but their harmony, especially here, is remarkable.
A gift and a plan . They sent the Video to Fleet Foxes Myspace account and got an answer from the band next day!
Fantastic !!!!!!! Lovely Harmonies ,............
Hmm, very nice. I didn’t realise.
They say "this is a gift for you" in such a silly way because this was before they were famous at all and I assume they didn't realize that the fleet foxes would actually see this one day.
This was in 2008
First Aid Kits first album came out in 2010
Isn't it incredible that they had this talent, charisma and confidence so young! They have come far, and still keep getting better. Survived the move to a major label with their integrity intact. They are coming to Aarhus in October. Can't wait!
First aid kits first album, "Drunken trees" came out in april 2008. Before this video, so they were absolutly not unknown in Scandinavia.
Don't you think it was a kind of a joke?
Ben Andersson scandanavia's canada dude, wtf
Kinda Huge Check a map, "dude."
2014 and I've only just discovered this duo and their wonderful music. Where have I been?
I'm in the same boat! A friend told me about them two months ago and since then I've been obsessed.
cuchelo1
to make matters worse, they toured the Uk and i couldn't make it...doh!!
Stephen Eblet Oh, man! Well, I have a feeling they'll be around for a while. catch them on their next tour!
Me too. I feel like a fool... but a happy one now that I HAVE found them and am raising my daughter on their music. :D
I also just missed them a few weeks ago because of said daughter and no one to watch her (she's three). D'oh. Still, hoping maybe in the next few years they can be her first concert. She loves "My Silver Lining."
I am simply blown away! This is one of those videos that once you see it, it changes everything.
exactly...
Has it really been 15 years? Just popping back to remember where it all started. This is truly one of my favourite musical moments in history. Thank-you for sharing your art.
I came back after 10 years, still love this cover version
Same!
@@lotaoto good to meet someone with the same music taste. please add me in Facebook.
Hello January 1st 2021, through covid generation, we are still here listening to First Aid Kit
I remember discovering that song and I am so glad they now have albums, tour and play live at festivals, 14 years later now 28 and 30 years of age. They deserve everything. Their music is literally a first aid kit. ❤
I can never understand how people like Klara could hit the high notes without visible struggle. She done it effortlessly like nothing
I always come back here. After I hear a new song from them, from a new album...I come back here. RUclips tells me they dropped this jem 7 yrs ago and I shake my head in disbelief every time. It's such an honor to have "grown" up with them. To see how far they've come. To have their songs as the backdrop of some of the best and hardest times of my life. Who would've thought such great things would come from a guitar and 2 little girls in the woods? Stay Gold, girls💕✨
in time They are actually huge. I’m mean they are really tall. Not little at all lol
You said it properly as you´re probably english native speaker.
I´d just add: it´s almost unbelievable the very fact that they exist.
Despite all Beyonces and Rihannas around, isn´t fantastic to know these two sisters are around as well and do what they do?
It's 2019 and I just came back too i love it
@@zepp1832little as in “younger” not height, duh. Who even refers to people by height?? Yutz 🙄
It’s been two years since I found this.Soul struggling beauty. They have been my comfort on long nights of pain.
what a refreshing group. Here's to a long and fruitful music career! Thanks for sharing your talent to the rest of the world.
they have a successful career is first aid kit
I remember when this first appeared on RUclips. I was going through the back lash of an accident. I listened to these sisters over and over. I knew they were going to be huge. I watched them grow and when they came out with Hard Believer and wolf Mother I was done. These girls are hands down my favorite artist. I wish them all the best and I hope the world opens to them. Thank you First Aid for being you.
Your harmonies are heavenly. This is divine.
This is true and organic talents are like. No makeups, no masking, no embellishments needed. They simply sing from their hearts and let their given talents shine thru. The earnest tunes are just there to capture listeners, that's true music magic. I'm so glad I found out about these young talents in the seas on manufactured pretending "artists"
with full respect to fleet foxes, this cover adds so much to the original and brings it to another level
Every time I watch this I have to watch it 10 times in a row or so, usually in the middle of the night and the only thing I can do is sing a long...
13 years on I'm still listening to this by now historic cover and the beginning of first aid kit.
These two young women are nothing short of amazing. I hope they play in Austin soon.
I always come back to this video every once in a while. I dont think i'll ever get sick of this cover
Still coming back after 12 years has passed by.
This is pure magic 🤩
I remember when I first saw First Aid Kit 10 years ago, and this song made me drop my jaw to the floor. I also actually got to meet them as well after the show, and they we're just as wonderful their music.
such lovely girls i meet them in Melbourne after a gig too
Once the second person started singing, I got chills on my body wow what a beautiful cover
And now look where they are! Heard them live in Nashville's Ryman Auditorium this week (2-1-18) and was blown away by their mastery and fervent performance. It was a completely gratifying show!
Wow... I saw this like 16 yrs ago and didn't get the names and have been looking for it for years. This reminds me of my late wife that heard it at the same time I did all those years ago. 😊😊😊
This is the first song I saw of First Aid Kit years ago, and I'm glad I found them again. They're just as good at singing and writing their original songs as they are at doing covers.
I'm in the same boat, after hearing their cover of rem walk unafraid.
I wonder, I wonder... For how many years to come will this still give me the chills?
Forever.
Its 2018 and I have just discovered them , never too late I guess ;)
I can’t stop watching these two angels harmonize. After watching their other videos, I am stunned by the path their careers have taken over the years since this initial video was done. Amazing. You have a big fan here in America. Well done ladies.
2016 and I'm still listening to this and loving it
+Vonesene Champa ME TOO ...
Discovered them shortly after this video was uploaded. I remember all they had released was Drunken Trees and I was addicted after I heard Pervigilo. Seeing them every year they come to California and watching them grow has been a treat and some of the best memories of my life. Glad they are a talent that has gotten the recognition they deserve. Still, no matter how big they get, I still think of them as this incredible little band that made a video of themselves singing in the forest and only I and a few others knew about them and how special they are.
Knew about them like a year ago, now coming back, again I have to say:
All I see is gold. Gold here, gold there, more gold there, oh and more gold there.
Simply amazing.
And hopefully they STAY GOLD! Get it? :D
Holly shit, im back, fuckin goosebumps.
I remember hearing this about 7 years ago and loved it so much more than the fleetfoxes version. You girls did an outstanding job
who's watching during lockdown
just found this! one of my fave fleet foxes song, covered by another favorite. it's a pandemic miracle. lol
Got me you son of a bitch.
had to start learning it during lockdown.
Vegan Dolls So pretty!
with you here fam
They are Swedish but sing fantastic in English. Now I wonder if they do any songs in Swedish. Loved these two the first time I heard them. They join Lorde and London Grammar as my new groups to like over the past several years.
In 2019, and still in my mind, in my heart... listening almost everyday...
Özgür Kalender selam değerli insan
15 years on and it's still amazingly beautiful.
Found them as a huge fan of Fleet Foxes with this like many others. Have since bought all their albums. Amazing musicians.
Perfect harmonies.
Fleet Foxes...making the most beautiful music right now.
They've inspired a Swedish monster that's catching up to them in leaps and bounds. Students do eventually overshadow masters.
Yeah...lets hope so...because if they do, then we'll be listening to some outstanding music from both of them. Both will try to outdo each other, which would inspire them to make better music.
Vikrant Thakur Haha, and to think they were almost held down by one of the members of Fleet Foxes. He told them not to drop out of school to pursue music because they'd "always have other chances" I'm fucking glad they didn't listen.
Yeah, exactly! :)
I have loved this for many years. Only lately do I have a very nice tube stereo with great old Klipsch speakers that I am finally able to listen super carefully. If you listen closely you can hear the wind in the woods in Sweden.
Tube stereo! I am jelaous ! 😀😁
I like your comment about forest wind, you are trully listener !
Im back after 15 years. Timeless ❤
This was my first ever introduction to these two gems way back when, what a beautiful journey they have taken us all on
Someone very special to me showed me this video many years ago and it still sounds and FEELS incredible. Their harmony is out of this world. It gives me chills.
It’s late may 2024 and I’m seeing this for the first time, being a huge fan. Holy crap, I just watched it 3 times in a row it’s amazing I love them
omg when the harmony comes in! YALL ARE ANGELS
This is the best kind of music I just wish it was easier to find
You tube's a good place to start :) just type it in and boom it's there :)
***** Spotify recommended artists are normally good too if you get them off of a band's page that you like. Yeah Taylor tastekid is very awesome too.
I'v found alot of cool bands just by listening to you tube recommendations aswell.
I love Fleet Foxes so much though, I stumbled upon them a few years ago and ever since i have listened to them everyday.
***** Im not :)
They're like time travellers. Remarkable. Flawless performance.
So, this is what musical genius sounds like! The genius reminds me of something I heard of the early Beatles.
I'm so glad that whilst they write their own excellent original material, they are not too proud to continue putting out covers of the songs they love. Everything they sing turns to gold. It's always a joy to discover new videos.
So beautiful. I've watched this probably a dozen times and I get chills every time.
My older brother showed this to me years ago, and for years I listened to this cover and I liked it. But I just discovered they actually where famous and had a career in music this past november!!! Fresh music, I really like them...
Lost count how many times I've listened to this. Funny thing is I've never even heard the original.
I don't want/need to. Love these women. And bless, 14 and 16 and already more talented than most of the world. Look at them now!
Never heard the original? And what about other songs from Fleet Foxes?

yaaa
So much passion. I'm crying. So touching. Touching my heart and soul in the deepest corners. I love fleet foxes. And I would have loved it from the bottom of my heart to see them live 🏵️🌿 thank you for this.
I just love the echoes in the end, their voices are just mesmerising!
I watched this when it was new! wow time flies😮
These 2 have a magical quality that most of us wish we possessed.
Saw the show tonight in LA. Incredible!
love love love love you both
Been listening to First Aid Kit for a few years now. Found this recording early in my discovery. It still defines the way I see these girls. So beautiful. You girls have been such an inspiration to me. I really appreciate your music, it has helped me define myself. Love to you and everyone else who enjoys the messages that you continue to convey.
I totally and truly believe these two girls are the best that have happened to Sweden in a long, long time.
caliswedeboy
When Sweden puts out a diamond, it is a true diamond amongst diamonds.
Can not get enough of these guys, listened three times in a row, again. It's not just how good they are at covers, it's also the songs they choose to cover. Great taste!
It’s 2021 and this just popped up in my timeline... I suddenly realized I had seen this thumbnail many years ago when I first discovered Fleet Foxes... I had no idea until now that it would be from another band I’d also love years later ❤️
15 years of enjoying this many times a year. Here's to 15 more. :)
Still listening in 2021 ❤️
My sister and I were 13 and 18, respectively, when we first discovered this song. We both had completely different music tastes but we both shared this video with each other, saying “I think you’d like this”. We’ve seen them live, met them (on accident), and bonded together over their music. I love you Miranda. Thanks for being the Klara to my Johanna. Lord knows I can’t hit Klara’s notes.
Just witnessed them live at Bonnaroo 2014…. I remember seeing this gem I found way back when. I still get chills hearing this, such talent, my god!
FAK has come a long way, Klara and Johanna have been a major part of my life for almost a decade now. It is good to hear this again. The perfect 2 part harmony in the woods recorded by a tiny go-pro or iphone or something. But I especially like Johanna's little eye roll at the end, As if she thought it wasn't that good. It was so good. A gift, indeed.
I remember when this song has 1000 views! I still listen to it all the time.
My eyes water every time I watch this. Never gets old..
These girls kick ass. Wonderful sound to share with loved ones
The way their voices reverberate off the mountain air is beautiful
Being back to this video is a wonderful slice of nostalgia.
i keep coming back to this. every few weeks.
The way she says "it's a little gift from us" makes me feel like I'm missing an inside joke.
A gift that gave back waaaaaay more.
My college roommate shared this video with me all the way back in 2008 when we returned for fall semester. We sang duets all the time and this video reminds me of harmonizing with her; how easy it was, how much fun we had, and the beauty of life I had forgotten that she helped me see.
Diehls if you see this somehow you’re still the absolute best and always will be. You saved my life that year and you were the best friend I had in all my time up north. It’s been ages but I’d trust you with my life today just like I did then. I still have the BDB playlist you made me- bangers and classics, every single track 🔥💯🥲
You two are a gift to all of us who could never deserve you.
These two are a great example of sticking to something you love doing and turning it into a career. I'm so happy they're still going after all this time
