yannis is completely mad. i love it

[@kierannugent3695]

Yannis' energy is absolutely relentless and it just makes their live stuff 10x better

[@theirishpersonfromir]

Yannis went down

[@egomez7850]

I don't know what I loved more about the whole performance, Foals live energy or the high quality of this video production! Seriously, BBC you guys killed it. (Sorry I'm a film student) I loved the handheld look to their performance and the lighting was awesome, you guys did an amazing job at really capturing the energy of the band. Love Foals. Love BBC Radio 1.

[@Izoenne]

I just want to break stuff and scream when I hear this song.
I want see them again !

[@WalterSobchak1000]

track of the year by a country mile

[@BobKoob]

It sounds so weird to hear Yannis say anything other than "This is our last song, it's called Two Steps Twice"

[@mandatory055]

Bobby Koob I'll have a feeling they'll say WWD is their last song; then pull out the real ending :P

[@FinnJain]

+lachlan eddington Two Steps Twice is still their encore :P

[@jtfc7286]

Bobby Koob About as could as you could hope for as a replacement to Two Steps.. they still close with two steps anyways

[@aylash219]

They will play two steps twice for a long time....because it’s a song you can change and improve every parts as you wants...

[@gabibasile965]

I love this band just as much as they love to wear tight pants.

[@LyleBarkerDrumCovers]

_Who wears loose pants?_

[@24behappy]

The most fucking awesome thing I've ever seen them do! They need to tour please

[@Anonymous74916]

A mix of high energy and math rock. I got to say I like this. Can't wait for the album.

[@Arpacores]

That drummer! Wow!

[@MrStuielooie]

He went down

[@jynweythek]

MrStuielooie 'cuz total jumps forever will never be enough, no

[@clurky13]

And that is why they are my favourite band!

[@dommyjudd]

My body is definitely ready for this new album.

[@sKiiTs8]

[@summerO12]

That ride cymbal just explodes..

[@dasBertchen]

i was in berlin this year in february. everyone got crazy and yannis jumped into the crowd ! it was a nice show with enormous energy - in my eyes foals are the best rock band this time. listen to their discography

[@violetbaudelaire7353]

I need to see this song live so badly, holy shit

[@Jasonseymour85]

In. Love. With. This. Song...

[@JacksJamz]

wow the BBC have really upped their game with this video

[@LisaMsb]

This is fucking insane. I love it.

[@markjlewis]

Only just discovered Foals as a result of listening to BBC 6 Music. OMG what have I been missing, simply awesome. Have had them turned up at 11+ at mine! Ordered the new album already and hoping the back catalogue will be as good.

[@Hardbody94]

The song has a darker vibe than most of the other songs on their discography.

[@cocatrolla6027]

Spanish Sahara is pretty dark too but What Went Down is also ferocious!

[@montana9964]

every part of this song its very emotional

[@humanbeing8391]

So much energy this live , love it

[@hokulealinda]

Damn I LOVE them !!

[@SJM_Media]

This band are awesome.

[@edgarsanchez1556]

What a piece of art! This album will going to rock so fucking much!...

[@jonsebastian2359]

That's an epic moment 4:51

[@takeitorleaveit1251]

Your the apple of my eye
Of my eye
I WANT YA!!!!

[@ktheodor3968]

Not my era band, but boy there is energy, vitality, good music..sterling delivery lads well done.
And here's something for the oldies who might know what I'm on about: watching the Foals doing this number, I thought of King Crimson, 21st Century Schizoid Man live rendition, available on LP/CD from California, year of recording 1970, '73, can't quite remember. Play it anyone, and the energy there will remind you of the Foals here.
Out of curiosity, does any one know whether the Foals acknowledge any influences by King Crimson?

[@basevibeX]

masterpiece!

[@twmband]

holy shit. Foals destroyed my mind

[@dtonefpv4141]
