@@tenthletter2678 What is your preference for music? If you don't mind me asking. I'm conducting a survey, and as of now, I have you pegged as a Looney Tune. But Hey! I might be wrong about my assessment of your comment, and I don't mind eating humble pie,
I genuinely thought it was a Talk Talk B-side / unreleased track from the Colour of Spring when I listened to it in a half daze on the radio early this morning. Great track
All I can say is Wow. I love the direction the music is going. Still hard not to make some Joni comparisons! And this video, damn. Gave me chills. Something about it speaks to me. The Weather Station has always spoken to me, tho. Can't wait to hear a new album.
I listen to a lot of new music, am constantly searching for new tunes and new (to me anyways) artists. In a good month I'll find maybe ten to fifteen songs that really stand out for me, and about maybe thirty or so that I'll bookmark as worth checking out for future reference. In the course of a year I will find three or four songs that I have to listen to over and over again. This song is the first one I've heard this year that fits into that last category. This is an excellent song that is well worth checking out.
You think Mr Hollis would "love" to be ripped off? Let's preface such absurd thoughts with "I think" or "I believe".....or just not touch the keyboard.
I kept on watching the scene from 0:55 until the microphone comes, because I was mesmerized by her facial expressions. It's a strange emotion to convey: I never believed in the robber, and when she smiles at 1:11 it blows my mind. I think she'd be a fantastic actress.
Oh my godddd, I’ve been following The Weather Station for YEARS now, since their first album (I was 15 haha) and wow, their style and sound has grown so much, I’m here for itttttt
Holy Moly... I'm not so sure what I just watched... it was awesome, scary, surreal, dreamlike and yet I totally related! I'm going to look at more of their catalog for sure!
New to this band. Very new. Thanks to R6M today.... 30 secs into what turned out to be this song, my ears pricked up and I jotted The Robber down. Album will be on preorder in the new year. Staggering
I am listening to the Weather Station for the very first time and it certainly will not be my last. Tamara Lindeman's haunting vocals touch you deeply, at the interoceptive level. That can only happen when something visceral as human nature responds deep inside you. Just as the 8th sense of your interoceptive gut feeling projects your body awake, Ms. Lindman's beautiful voice makes you feel it! Watching Ms Lindman in her original avant-garde music video, I can see in her face and eyes, that she is restrained. And that is what makes her so damn special. When she looks into the camera, it is but a mirror of yourself hearing the keys to our internal bells going off inside us. When you feel it wake up! Weather Station is another prime example, of how artists will save us. I know this woman wants to howl like a wolf, but she is tempered, and her delicate balance between chaos and order brings a ethereal quality to her singing. Tamara Lindman is a real gem here, her voice echoes the same delicacy and extraordinary intrinsic strength of Kate Bush. I believe that artists such as Tamara will make a far greater impact on helping tune us back to our ecological nature. It will never be the climate change heroes that are constantly propagated across our LED screens, orchestrated by the very same 1 percenters who raped and pillaged our earth and bodies in the first place. It will be the artists who make you feel it. Who understands that we must go deeper inside us, the fearless who can plunge into what’s deep inside all of us, beyond the surface. It will be artists like Tamera who has run with the wolves to cry out loud. Because when you feel it- wake up! Culture is a plot against the expansion of consciousness. The lies we tell ourselves, that everything will be ok. What's lacking in the Western mind, is the sense of connectivity and relatedness to the rest of life, the atmosphere, the ecosystem, the past, our children's future. If we were feeling those things we would not be practicing culture as we are. Musicians would not be creating for the algorithm. They would be doing what Weather Station is doing. Helping us feel it- so we can wake up!
Wow, great song... Equally sophisticated music, production, and lyrics (love how the idea of the robber slithers like mercury between literal and figurative manifestations). Really great conception and execution.
Discovered this band from hearing their song "Parking Lot" on Sirius XMU, and after watching the video, saw a link to this one in the sidebar and so decided to check it out. Wow! Another great song, and I absolutely love this video. So ingeniously filmed!
I only just discovered Robber this morning on a music video tv station and it has grabbed my attention in same way that Tinseltown did way back in the 1980s. These songs are real keepers.
This song is so amazing! I was knew about this band because they sing with an artist I like called Bahamas on the Walter Mitty CD I have. I've always wanted to check them out but I never have! I just pre-ordered the Silver vinyl and cassette bundle! Can't wait to hear the album, comes out the day after my birthday!
This song has haunted me for days. You can't help but acknowledge how sophisticated the arrangement and production are.
Feel free to also "acknowledge" the is lttle more than a sped up Talk Talk tune, musically.

@@MrPencilcelebs You Jim, are very easily amused. Might wanna look into that.
@@tenthletter2678 omg I totally don’t know how I did that! I remember the comment tho so I could have hit a button!
The Weather Station + Weyes Blood + Perfume Genius = the holy trinity of modern art pop.
This ancient toad us going to check out all three deeper.
St. Vincent, too!
@@ajnahavandi St. Vincent is more of an indie rock act
Yeah! :D
Give Julia Holter her credits, too! If ya haven't listened to her music, and like those three artists, you will enjoy. I promise!
I'm hearing echoes of Talk Talk's 'Happiness is Easy' here; wonderful tune!
Good catch
The Colour Of Spring 💚
OMG, my thoughts too, it could be Talk Talk from that brilliant album!
This is, by far, the best song I’ve heard in a long time; from any artist. The vocals, the strings, the winds. Amazing, truly amazing.
👌🏻
I can't get over how beautifully intricate this song is
You call this intricate
Oh these boiling emotions with that frozen delivery, it's so mesmerising... Tamara is a one of a kind messenger and still growing
this.

Atomic pink hair dye
Wow! Amazing song. I hear a strong TALK TALK Colour of Spring / Laughing Stock influence. Love it!
yes!
I genuinely thought it was a Talk Talk B-side / unreleased track from the Colour of Spring when I listened to it in a half daze on the radio early this morning. Great track
@@MelMelis ditto!
This ^^
Did Tim friesse green produce for this
Both the song and the performance are fantastic! I keep listening to it and can't seem to stop
Pure perfection.
Underrated
A stand out album this year.
This is the closest to the genius of Talk Talk I've ever heard.
How has this song only that amount of views? Brilliant tune and video to match.
That was absolutely brilliant. HOLY SHIT!
Saxophone soloing at the end reminds me of the guitar soloing in David Bowie's I can't give everything away
That's it! I knew I recognized the Black Star influence, but it's I Can't Give Everything Away that I know this from, which also a phenomenal track.
@@RobynHanson yeah it has that same feel doesn't it
It totally reminds me of Blackstar
★ is the first thing that came to mind when I first heard this song on the radio.
Deep cut, but it also reminds me of the saxophone in the song "Tiedo" by Baaba Maal.
Holistic in all senses - pure presence -honest and to the bone! Exceptional
This is great, sounds so much like talk talk - happiness is easy
You are a magnificent discovery for me !!! Wow !!!
Some of the best lyricism I’ve ever heard/read
This. Is completely fascinating and alluring. Wow.
Got an old Talk Talk feel to it
Indeed and that can only be a good thing. Miss Mark Hollis.
Just saw them open for First Aid Kit, absolutely fantastic band!! Was incredibly moved by their set
The horns.....and the vocal. Great music.
"He never saw you, he only saw what he would be allowed to do"
All I can say is Wow. I love the direction the music is going. Still hard not to make some Joni comparisons! And this video, damn. Gave me chills. Something about it speaks to me. The Weather Station has always spoken to me, tho. Can't wait to hear a new album.
Pressing play for a second time.
This is immense.

Tamara, this is brilliant and emotive and ugh so much.
Mark Hollis would have loved this. Amazing song. Thanks.
Yeah, I was thinking this sounded like something from The Colour of Spring. The drum is just like Happiness is Easy.
Yes!

@@tenthletter2678 Hahaha, oh I'm so sorry I won't do it again papa.
@@tenthletter2678 You will do this on every comment?
Go seek a therapist!
This is the most mesmerising song I've heard for ages. Absolute quality. Thanks 6 Music for playing it!
This is that kind of surrealism I need)))😊🤯🧡
Astounding. Thank you.

I think she has been active as an actress since her teens.
@@jakehopgood7446 Oh! Nice!
We all need this gorgeous richness right about now. Amazing song. Thank you Tamara and crew!
Oh my godddd, I’ve been following The Weather Station for YEARS now, since their first album (I was 15 haha) and wow, their style and sound has grown so much, I’m here for itttttt
Thanks for telling me about how amazing they are haha. I am overwhelmed with how good this song is.
Very powerful, can't stop listening to this song
Bonnaroo 2022 has brought me here. Thursday is gonna be dope!!
Beautiful & compelling ... totally hooked!
There is some originality brewing here.. definitely my favourite so far ;)
Just stunning. Wow!
Wonderful.
This song sounds amazing when listened to at high volume.
Holy Moly... I'm not so sure what I just watched... it was awesome, scary, surreal, dreamlike and yet I totally related! I'm going to look at more of their catalog for sure!

This is truly beautiful. A big THANK YOU to all people involved!
Love this OMG! Salutations to the universe!❤🖤💚💛
I think Bowie would approve; musically and fashion wise. it takes a lot of confidence to wear a suit made of mirror shards.
WHAT A SONG.
This is an awesome song! Thanks for keeping it human!
The best piece of music I have heard in a very long while. the production has stepped up to lift the songs
Beautiful song + video
Oh, so smooth and mellow. Nice!👍🌄
I've been reeeeally hooked on this album
Stunning. Completely agree with the Talk Talk comparisons, fronted by Heloise Letissier. Can't stop playing this.
Very Talk Talk influenced. A good thing. :)
Stealing and "influence" are two very differnt things.
@@tenthletter2678 Okay, we get it. Mebbe you'd be happier if you just went and listened to Talk Talk. Bye bye.
@@grizzellor No "mebbe" to it. Don't get so worked up about people having a different opinion than yours.
Gotta love the double drums.
This is stellar stuff...it’s been a while since an album moved me like this...will be picking this up on vinyl soon
Next level. Hope you never comercial, you just save the 2020 and 2021.
I can't believe Ill see her at Bonnaroo
love it! Reflektor vibes in many ways, in great ways
Amazing song and very good clip.
Colour of spring
Now this is a song honnnney !!!!
This is … extremely good on all counts
Album in my collection, best regards!
Amazing
Powerful.
That mirror suit is amazing! Love the video and tune :)
Brilliant

Cool suit...and cool cool vibes...groove on...
Haven’t heard owt this good since Hats by the Blue Nile...
Blue Nile, amazing band, more haunting than this, surprised anyone else had heard of them.
I only just discovered Robber this morning on a music video tv station and it has grabbed my attention in same way that Tinseltown did way back in the 1980s. These songs are real keepers.
Such a wonderful song and video
I just find this theme awesomely enjoyable i just adore luv it too much
This song reminded me so much of David Bowies - Lazarus, I want to see this band live so bad
Perfect vibes, just heard it on 6music
This reminds of the Trail in the forest up at Bethel Woods . Original Woodstock Site. Ultra Cool Video.
Hell yes
absolutely brilliant!!
Super edge thanks for sharing
thats amazing
! i remember ´dark star-David Bowie
Absolutely - that drum beat
This song is so amazing! I was knew about this band because they sing with an artist I like called Bahamas on the Walter Mitty CD I have. I've always wanted to check them out but I never have!

This is fantastic. So cool!!!
this rox!
Everyone is bringing up Talk Talk, but the arrangements in this song remind me the most of the song "Tiedo" by Baaba Maal.
Outstanding... ⚡️🔥⚡️
She’s like a cool blend of Kate Bush, Natalie Merchant, Talk Talk and The Blue Nile. Stellar stuff.
I was thinking Tracey Thorn
Beth Gibbons from Portishead as well.
@@mrdog66 Beth Orton too lol
Definitely Talk Talk
Christine McVie
Wow now I'm so excited for the album 💥
The music video is like a deleted scene from Twin Peaks!
Not dissimilar to beltin'❗👍👌
Wooowww holy crap!!
in norway it reached 33 on itunes, congrats!!!!
Damn this song and video gets me everytime.
I am fascinated by this song.
Love It Chilled But Unsettling Great
Incredible tune and singer!
