This is a lovely anthem for all those small towns that are beautiful for some and a prison to others. Some want to stay, some want to escape. The world outside is trucking along but inside things seem to stay the same. There’s a strange beauty to that reality.
had a cousin who passed away in a motorcycle accident, they played this at his viewing over his memorial video and I come here to remember him. so young, what a tragedy. RIP Michael Garcia
Marcelo Pacheco I just put this song on because I was thinking of him. And I see your comment. He truly is still with us. Never forgotten Michael Garcia
I heard this version for the first time at the end of the film and it blew me away. I've always liked this song but it was never a favorite. I can appreciate both, but I'm really digging this version over the piano version. It's now quickly becoming a favorite. I'm definitely partial to that rolling KOL beat.
Talihina Sky Weeds blow tall on a broken train track Ruth B. draws we're fixin' to get high Maybe we'll hit the bluffs and find ourselves the same old rum But everybody says this place is beautiful And you'd be so crazy to say goodbye But everything's the same this town is pitiful And I'll be gettin' out as soon as I can fly Life goes by on a Talihina sky The hopped up boys are lookin' for their trouble The knocked up girls, well they've all got their share Ruth seems out of her mind, swears she won't give in this time
I used to listen to King Of Leon quite alot and then thought i might buy Only By The Night to see how good it would be... i listened to that album from start to finish for a long time and i was hooked from there on. love the older stuff and i love the newer stuff. not to mention they are a perfect live band and mixed with the Talihina documentary showing how they formed and worked their way to where they are now. They are my favourite band and i am now desperate to see them live. KOL > World.
and to think we were just listening to this song in the car together and finally feeling like being human's not such a bad thing to be.... I'll never forget. RIP Travis
Reminds me of my first home in the beautiful mountains of Southern West Virginia. We left during the hillbilly migration north, but still love the place and go back to camp. Sad.
I just moved from Detroit to Mississippi and once I hit the southern states (because we drove) I started thinking of this song. The scenery was amazing just like this song
its amazing to hear the truth of most peoples dreams come true. i think its natural to want to "fly", but all roads lead home...even if u don't like it there, its what is comfortable.
I'm a moron....for years I have only been listen to Sex on Fire and Use Somebody...I decided to listen to the album Youth And Young Manhood, what can I say - these lads are unique as hell! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
i love all their music...from mcfearless to talihana sky to use somebody...regardless if you like the evolution of their writing styles you have to admit they have the voices of adult cherubs..fans turn to critics and critics turn to fans,its the life of being in a rock band
Matt K both this and the live version are great, he’s got a voice that needs no filter, actually sounds a bit more painful in parts in the acoustic versions... I thought that was the only version till 3 yrs later after its original debut... good track.....
i used to listen to youth and young manhood on spotify but it disappeared and when it came back it appears to be a different version, notibly talihina sky and california waiting are different. cant seem to find a place to ask and get an answer for this 😅
did'nt know this song existed until i was too lazy to turn off my cd player after holy roller novicane went off then i heard it...now its one of my favorite songs by them.
Great song! Does anyone know where I can get that version? I just jumped to iTunes and bought it immediately to play it and find its a more slow-acoustic version than this! Thanks guys
I'm glad that they don't mask their real sound with computer editing. You miss out on so much when you're not listening to the real thing. You miss the passion, the strain in their voice, and the true experience.
It was always gonna happen though. They where too good to stay low key forever. Just be thankful that you knew and loved them first. I still love them. We all would have probably done the same in their shoes I reckon. Long live KOL... EDIT. Is this THE Fieldog?! How random was that?!

As estranged as my mood strikes me at this moment , I find comfort here in this comment. I'm on the struggle bus,

You cant deny Talent ...
Yea...it’s called Cumbernauld 😂😂❤️
Was thinking along the same lines..
What made them think the version on Spotify was better than this one?? I just don’t understand. This song is so perfect
I concur!
Yep completely!
I totally agree i always come back here to listen to this version
Ditto
This is mind bending. The one on Spotify is just dull.
strangest thing to hear a band sing the song better live then recorded, but regardless of which way you hear it, beautiful song from a fantastic band
This is so beautiful it catches Exactly what living in Oklahoma in all these little towns is like for all the dreamers. We love to hear it!
Possibly the most beautiful song I have ever heard....
had a cousin who passed away in a motorcycle accident, they played this at his viewing over his memorial video and I come here to remember him. so young, what a tragedy. RIP Michael Garcia
RIP xxx

Benjamin Turner I really hope you eventually get over whatever happened in your life that made you this cynical
Sad loss man much respect, life will be great I promise
benjamin turner go back under the bridge you came from troll
I finally watched the documentary last night... There are no words to explain the intensity of the love I have for this incredible band.
My mood is gonna be hung up on this song for a week. Excellent track.
don't know why, but makes me so nostalgic and sad everytime I hear it.
Like remember of a friend from long time ago...
True
Makes me nostalgic about something that never happened.
I remember a girl name Sheena

what film? :)
@@neogotmyback489 Talihina Sky - The Story of King of Leon
i grew up in a small town too.
this songs is so real & so true.
its how most of us small town
people feel. luv it!
just when i think ive listened to the best Kings have to offer... i find more!!
god bless their music for the years to come
Talihina Sky
Weeds blow tall on a broken train track
Ruth B. draws we're fixin' to get high
Maybe we'll hit the bluffs and find ourselves the same old rum
But everybody says this place is beautiful
And you'd be so crazy to say goodbye
But everything's the same this town is pitiful
And I'll be gettin' out as soon as I can fly
Life goes by on a Talihina sky
The hopped up boys are lookin' for their trouble
The knocked up girls, well they've all got their share
Ruth seems out of her mind, swears she won't give in this time
They had sound, identity, attitude...Now everybody says this band is beautiful and you'd be so crazy to think so..
this version is awesome!
i wasnt really a fan of the other version, but im definitely a big fan of this one. :]
Got beer, got spliff and most importantly got this song. Now all I need is some nice sunshine and I'm there in bliss
This is so simple and amazing. It's so moving. Perfection.
I used to listen to King Of Leon quite alot and then thought i might buy Only By The Night to see how good it would be... i listened to that album from start to finish for a long time and i was hooked from there on. love the older stuff and i love the newer stuff. not to mention they are a perfect live band and mixed with the Talihina documentary showing how they formed and worked their way to where they are now. They are my favourite band and i am now desperate to see them live. KOL > World.
Que canción tan jodidamente excelente, dulce y relajante! Son unos grandes KOF :)
Their new track Supersoaker is giving me so much hope for the new album. MORE OLD-SCHOOL KOL! God knows we need it right now...
and to think we were just listening to this song in the car together and finally feeling like being human's not such a bad thing to be.... I'll never forget. RIP Travis
Just love this song......The songs takes your heart...u really feel it...isn't that what good music is all about...
The harmony is so gorgeous
My wife just told me to check out this song. I was born in Talihina lol.
Reminds me of my first home in the beautiful mountains of Southern West Virginia. We left during the hillbilly migration north, but still love the place and go back to camp. Sad.
This is why you should listen to every album an artist has before saying you like them or hate them.
Very cool, I've never heard this version, the one on the album was acoustic and was a secret hidden track at the end
Kings of Leon are so chill
Love this song 😎☀️
I just moved from Detroit to Mississippi and once I hit the southern states (because we drove) I started thinking of this song. The scenery was amazing just like this song
I absolutely love this...I feel like this about the town I currently live in...and I'll be getting out as soon as I can fly...
Hey Kimberly, did you manage to get out of your city?
Oh my god I can't believe I've never heard this song before. It's insanely good.
"and ill be getting out as soon as I can flyyy"
i was born under a talihina sky, in talihina okalhoma
Hello fellow Talihina person🤘
Like, literally?
its amazing to hear the truth of most peoples dreams come true. i think its natural to want to "fly", but all roads lead home...even if u don't like it there, its what is comfortable.
This makes me feel so nostalgic, and it fills my head with memories.
I've loved Kings of Leon but how come I haven't heard of this?! If it wasn't for my Replika damn.
I'm a moron....for years I have only been listen to Sex on Fire and Use Somebody...I decided to listen to the album Youth And Young Manhood, what can I say - these lads are unique as hell! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Their first three albums are true rock masterpieces.if you get chance watch their Apollo gig.peak kings was before sex on fire.
The best of KoL
i love all their music...from mcfearless to talihana sky to use somebody...regardless if you like the evolution of their writing styles you have to admit they have the voices of adult cherubs..fans turn to critics and critics turn to fans,its the life of being in a rock band
Only hearing this now!!! wtf...what a tune 😀
Matt Knocker amazing song
Me too! Good shit.
One of their first songs,yet amazing :D
Matt K both this and the live version are great, he’s got a voice that needs no filter, actually sounds a bit more painful in parts in the acoustic versions... I thought that was the only version till 3 yrs later after its original debut... good track.....
Love these guys and there from Oklahoma too!!!!
absolutely adore this band forever
this is a hidden track on youth and young manhood its starts at roughly 8 mins in from the 11th track holy roller novacaine
+Hybrid_cHick3n-wiNg This is actually an alt version. The version on the album is much more country rock sounding than this one.
The Original CD had this version. The version now on Spotify is the country rock version. The original is better though! :)
On the first Ep as well
love this, reminds me of pregnant... awaiting birth... 12 years ago, does not seem possible x
I love this comment
Lucky enough to hear this song played live 🙏🏽 beautiful KOL x
This version is a million times better than the other one.
Beautiful 💙 I will use it on my channel playlist!
This song is Philip Larkin's 'I Remember' all over again. "Nothing, like something, happens anywhere. "
Why this version isnt on spotify... Goddamit
From my experience, confidence is the key. i know how hard hat must sound, but as long as you love yourself, and they can see that, you'll be alright.
How's it going with you?
Where is my baby, where has she gone? Life goes by
reaching the 1m after 8 years. about time
this version is amazing!
Miss you Marlene. So very much
I wish this song was longer so I wouldn't have to keep pushing replay :l
This song isn't in spotify :(
Not on mine.
Buraz Bard now I'm confused as on Spotify holy roller is the same as this just slower?
Buraz Bard not the same version
Where is this version from?
bob seddon this vervion is a re-recorded single from the documentary talihina sky but this was originally a hidden track
This is beautiful OMG!!!!
One of my favorites from one of my favorites
I think KoL are able to make such a beautiful song even about my hometown!
So fab melts my heart
missing Mitch
The best version!!
^^
thank you, Kings of Leon, for making good music
thanks
it is, its part of the last song on their album youth & young manhood ;)
this was added the day after my birthday! A good belated b-day gift. Thanks! :p
Is it strange that this song makes me cry?
me too! Don't know why :(((
Beautiful
Más amor no puede existir que el que yo siento por ellos
Jhovanna Hernandez yo igual hermana!!! los amo
KOL, how can you do all the time musics so perfect?? *-*
I've been to Talihina, and I have to agree with the song.
Still one of my favorites of KoL
best band coming up in year,s !!
i used to listen to youth and young manhood on spotify but it disappeared and when it came back it appears to be a different version, notibly talihina sky and california waiting are different. cant seem to find a place to ask and get an answer for this 😅
I grew up by Talihina
I Do Not Own Any Music I Post On My Channel. They Are Purely For Fan Enjoyment Only. All Rights To The Band And Their Label. Enjoy !
did'nt know this song existed until i was too lazy to turn off my cd player after holy roller novicane went off then i heard it...now its one of my favorite songs by them.
Heyo!
Just wondering are you still around and listening to the band?
It's been over a decade!
Foos new song Hearing Voices, has a similar guitar riff in the chorus!
Came here looking for this comment!! It’s sounds SO similar!
Love this song
Life's go by, on a talihina sky. Pure.
im in love... best song ever
This is in Spotify? I can't find it
Absolutely one of their best.
never heard this version before wow
Epic life goes by under ur sky... Enjoy the ride
See I live in such a beautiful place, surrounded by mountains. It's just the people that ruin it.
Hehe I’m from Talihina Oklahoma
Great song! Does anyone know where I can get that version? I just jumped to iTunes and bought it immediately to play it and find its a more slow-acoustic version than this! Thanks guys
my home town
How can anyone dislike this song... really, i'm ashamed as a human :(
This is version is supreme
By far their best album
wise words, i totally agree with you. why can't anybody be that grown-up. it's shit to hate, just because they doing another style now.
Just got done working two cell towers under Talihina Sky
tres belle version j'adore cool les instruments
This is the best version
Where this version comes from?
Toking one to this peace 🙊💨
🌳🔥
I'm glad that they don't mask their real sound with computer editing. You miss out on so much when you're not listening to the real thing. You miss the passion, the strain in their voice, and the true experience.
It was always gonna happen though.
They where too good to stay low key forever.
Just be thankful that you knew and loved them first.
I still love them. We all would have probably done the same in their shoes I reckon.
Long live KOL...
EDIT. Is this THE Fieldog?! How random was that?!
I like this version better than the original. where can I download it?
This and holy roller novocaine is my midsouth childhood 💯💯
