Not too surprising for a couple of reasons: not much else to do around Moose Jaw; and, he's talented AF (he recorded all the parts for this track them laid them down himself). Respect.
This song is burned into my mind. “Just a shaking hand without a concrete plan” - feels like you’re on the cusp of taking over the world without the decisiveness. It’s in all of us who are desperate to break the shackles. I’ve got what it takes to be a trivia host, but I’m terrified of being a real person. We are all the same people
[Verse 1] Do you find It gets a little easier each time you make it disappear? Oh fools, the magician bends the rules As the crowd watches his every move [Chorus] Just a shaking hand without a concrete plan Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo [Verse 2] Sidesteps to a death-defying feat Wait for him to reappear Look close, you’ll see him sweat the most Each time his options disappear [Chorus] Just a shaking hand without a concrete plan Just a shaking hand without a concrete plan I’m a shaking hand without a plan Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo [Outro] Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Multiband master compression can give you even low and high end and with adjustments can sound full and rich but can adjusted to sound vintage and dynamic too
wow coming back to this 8 years later. this was one themesong of many from one hell of a romance . it sounds so immediately full and warm. so beautiful
Good lord boy, I'm a little jazzed at the moment myself and I can understand exactly how that comment came about. Reading it, however... It's still indecipherable.
anyone else get a deep intense feeling of comfort mixed with a subtle but powerful feeling of like anxiety and being scared? when i listen to his music or similar music i get this feeling. i kind of feel depressed but its like a warm blanket wrapped around me i dont want to leave it but i know i should. please let me know if anyone else feels something similar
Have you ever had a dream where you fall for a couple of seconds and wake up with your heart racing? I look for music that gives me that feeling. Kinda melancholic.
I feel this tune is about how as humans we live a life of constant improvisation in all aspects, in the first line (do you find it gets easier each time you make it disappear?) It could be relationships with people, like it gets easier to watch people walk away after it's happened so many times, as well as the lines saying the magician is the one who sweats the most as he sees his options disappear, we run out of choices in life so we become desperate to find what we want from it but in the end we're all just a shaking hand without a concrete plan, in other words an abstract idea trying to understand itself
That's a great take! its important to remember your identity is not married to these relationships; you are your own individual self, however much your life dynamics change, whether it be relationships, jobs, habbits , places of living, appearance, ect. you are still the same person the whole time. To roughly paraphrase George Watsky: People only add to who they are over time .Every thing is the same at its core nothings changed only more than before. maybe im overthinking this a bit though... 🥴
There is something about the instrumentation of this song that reminds me of Nick Drake. It's the type of song that plays over the credits of a television series episode that wins the emmy. Beautifully haunting.
I listened to this when I was drunk driving to my ex’s house to drop stuff off sobbing out of control using coke daily destroying every relationship I had weird to listen to this again .. I’m sober now 1 year and change
Anything Yedam listens I trust. That boy has good taste in music that parallels with mine. And I love this music too even before he brought me here again today.
how is this song so beautiful? I've listened to this song on repeat for the last few days and everytime I listen again it still feels powerful and touches my soul, everytime
This has to be my favorite song right now. Happy and sad, definitely nostalgic. Makes me retrospect on life and what led me to this point. I just wish I could share it with someone some day.
First heard this at Starbucks. You don't exactly get satisfying results when you Google the lyrics: "Dodo do do dodo doo" I just happened to catch it the next time I was in Starbucks and figured it out via Spotify. Great song.
The music video makes me believe for just a moment that beneath this earthly veneer of mundane existence there's indeed a metaphysical world of ethereal phantasmagoria. All hail such artists for making this reality more bearable to us.
I always like to revisit this video, seriously a great video and a wonderful song! I found this album while I started a very big personal transition in life. At the time I was cleaning a daycare at night that was apart of a church I grew up in; they had recently gotten into a newer building that had a bit more of an institutionalized feel to it. I remember walking around this big cold empty unfamiliar building at midnight listening to this album, it was a very interesting time.
this song is stuck between happiness and sadness dont know what to feel
that's the good old major 7 chord for you
brian wilson loved that sound
Reminds me of New person same mistakes by Tame Impala
Melancholy
Shit that must be why im so in love with it
I met Andy in 2004 when we were in high school in Moose Jaw, SK. For those of you that dont know, Andy was also a super talented BMX rider!
Not too surprising for a couple of reasons: not much else to do around Moose Jaw; and, he's talented AF (he recorded all the parts for this track them laid them down himself). Respect.
What was he like then?
Nice
BMX?

I can't stop listening to this song. It's like being sober and really high at the exact same time.
Jacob Burns nope

Haha
That’s your third eye opening 😂
U basically r talking bout tripping....and that is a whole universe of thought in itself
I love how most of us found this on something and keep coming back! I love yall!

I remember how in 2016 I came across this album and listened to it over and over again. It was before my high school graduation
I am the Magician in my small world of life.
Tripping out, laying in a hammock, watching the clouds and then this song came on. Thank you
Same
Float on
@@annacatinca2989 -you were also outside laying on a hammock, tripping, and this song randomly came on?
@@markb.humble6945 my nigga anything could happen when you're tripping
Yeah..same, i was lay outside tripping on a hammock. this song came on just randomly as i read your comment.
Paul Simon: For Vietnam-Era Melancholy
Elliot Smith: For 90's Nihilism
Andy Shauf: For Hopeful Millennials
I like them all :)
No holes left for the pigeons
i’m not sure if anything in this song (or even most of this album) invokes hopefulness. it’s so full of dread and anxiety
AlyssaQ420 well said🥂
@@tam.h There is a release of tension in the 'doo doo doo do do doo's' otherwise i could have destroyed my complete magic collection.

Andy brings me back to a time when I had creativity oozing through my ears, 6 years ago, now I feel like my creativity has come back alive.
Thank you.
Bang Yedammmm !!!💖💖💖
ใช่!
thanks yedam for this
[Verse 1]
Do you find
It gets a little easier each time you make it disappear?
Oh fools, the magician bends the rules
As the crowd watches his every move
[Chorus]
Just a shaking hand without a concrete plan
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
[Verse 2]
Sidesteps to a death-defying feat
Wait for him to reappear
Look close, you’ll see him sweat the most
Each time his options disappear
[Chorus]
Just a shaking hand without a concrete plan
Just a shaking hand without a concrete plan
I’m a shaking hand without a plan
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
[Outro]
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
I am here because of BANG YEDAM. 💙💎 thankyou!!!!!
Treasure Bang Yedam brought me here this song sound so good love it ❤️
Those cutouts must been a lot of work. Congrats to everyone involved in making this!
You might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like Andy Shauf
One of my favorite songs of all time.
andy shauf.
a quiet genius.
doesn't shout to be noticed.
elegant, yet so chaotically beautiful.
i never say this.
but this guy is really underrated !
Come back and listen to again
@@simontj8800 damn, needed this. thanks. : )
@@sayroni no problem lol
I think this is the first time I see the word underrated being properly used online.
Así es.
GM sir, please take care of TREASURE because they loved your song so much!
This song has taken over my life.
Here after boy radio by treasure
And im addictic with this song rn 💙
Beautiful creativity. This song is utterly heart wrenching.
Come back and listen again :)
His voice is somewhere on the edge of discomfort but never leaves the couch
This song has gotten me through a lot of hard times.
same! ima in hard times now, but this song helps me a lot! so beautiful and peacefully.
Totally high on acid listening to this great song. Greetings to everyone from Mexico
Sounds like a classic!
Comeback and listen again :)
Indeed
but it is a classic now ;)
Finally get to see him live in Perth in December… cannot wait!
I get a Beatles’ Strawberry Fields vibe from this song and the imagery reminds me of the Yellow Submarine movie. Nice job, Andy Shauf.
This is the best album I have heard in YEARS! Reminds me of early 70's Beach Boys, Harry Neilsson, Wings etc. So damn good.
Voice reminds me of Gerry Beckley (of 70s band America).
I like the vintage EQing on this. More emphasis on the mid range, I like it.
Multiband master compression can give you even low and high end and with adjustments can sound full and rich but can adjusted to sound vintage and dynamic too
He also recorded all the instruments and arranged this himself. Amazing to behold!
Nice observation. Overall the mix sounds mid to late 70's. I dig the plate reverb sound as well.
They probably just mixed on more analog equipment than you would normally hear nowadays lol
true about the analog equipment. I bet he ran things through a tape as well
Next level stuff. I haven't heard a song this good in a long time
Comeback and listen again :)
Loved the album, listened to it on the road with my mom, she liked the production and said it reminded her of America
aha exactly the same story here, the only CD on the car, their first album eponym, the best :))
Killer compliment, and well-placed!
wow coming back to this 8 years later. this was one themesong of many from one hell of a romance . it sounds so immediately full and warm. so beautiful
This song is triply. I'm not even on drugs but listening to it trips me out. Good song.

Yeah i get a similar feeling, you described it well
I don't know English very well, but it does be like this. I feel like I'm missing something in life with the verse "shaking hands withou plans"
In this hectic world, watching this video and listening to its song kinda give you some peaceful-mind-yet-fuck-the-world feeling
exactly what we need in a hectic world, peaceful-mind-yet-fuck-the-world?
fuck YOUR world.

check them out...its worth it..TREASURE

best use of distorted guitar i've heard in a LONG time, it shouldn't fit but it DOES

I'm not exaggerating when i say this is my new favourite song. Wonderfully produced with beautiful lyrics to compliment.
I'm listening to this beautiful song because of bang yedam💜
2023 still amazing :)
This is a genius, ambient but emotionally invoking work of art. Godspeed Andy Shauf, may greatness come to an individual of such talents.
My theory is music like this can only come from long dark winters in a mouldy Canadian basement suite. Bittersweet melancholy
I listened to this when I was drunk driving to my ex’s house to drop stuff off sobbing out of control using coke daily destroying every relationship I had weird to listen to this again .. I’m sober now 1 year and change
Congratulations dude 🎉
Amen brother 🙏🏼✨🧿💖 bless u
nice

Sounds like a cross between the Beatles and America. Dig it.
this song is stuck between happiness and sadness dont know what to feel 1:34 ❤❤❤❤
Bittersweet melancholy
3 years later I discovered this beautiful song
Oh You Tube, I'm back , listening high, as you say, you people, watching and enjoying this moment here with this music.
great song, instant classic.
Comeback and listen again :)
Anything Yedam listens I trust. That boy has good taste in music that parallels with mine. And I love this music too even before he brought me here again today.
I knew i shouldn't of bought that herbal tea from that wiccan shop.

@@ActuallyAwesomeName shut up and trip balls.
@@Markingramforheisman Things you could only say when theres a Karen at a forest acid party
shouldn't *have*
... Funky Crumpet ... ‘have’
sometimes this makes things better
I get huge Gilbert O' Sullivan vibes from this tune, it's brilliant!
ah thats what i missed. a stuck with some beatles on this one. but now it makes sense^^
It's like riding a fox with a swinsuit in august, in slow motion, wearing a fancy top-hat. A happy moment that it will never come back .
This song gives me goosebumps, especially the instruments
3,784,540 pays and 3,784,539 are me. So much love for this album, this track especially. Just heaven.
how is this song so beautiful? I've listened to this song on repeat for the last few days and everytime I listen again it still feels powerful and touches my soul, everytime
He's a genius.
just discovered this, reminds me the band America, my childhood :) love it
Absolute genius. I was timed out an impressive amount of time, trying to describe God's joyous sigh.
This song is amazing and I'm so glad I met Andy at a Tiny Desk concert
Moon Along My Head How did you manage to attend a tiny desk, if ya don’t mind me asking? I’ve always wondered
I want to know as well
The song is good, but the art piece is fabulous!
This has to be my favorite song right now. Happy and sad, definitely nostalgic. Makes me retrospect on life and what led me to this point. I just wish I could share it with someone some day.
I'm on the verge of tears now just hearing this for the first time... 6 years wasted.
Brilliant! He's lyrics reminds me of Beck
This song makes me feel so sad. Like all my best days are behind me.
this song makes me feel sad
but not depressed

lmao
Starbucks is for mainstream hypsterz
Starry&Bohemian I work there in the morning, while attending school for welding at night. "Hypsterz" here 'bout to be making Slag Money 🤘🤑
I also discovered this song at Starbucks. Another reason to love going there.
Get Shazam. That has help me out so many times.
Banger
This guy is an artist and it's giving meaning to my life right now, I can't give up without hearing what else he has to offer
Nice, reminds me of The Beatles. Great song
I love the character portrait he's painted with his lyrics.
Andy Shauf is quickly becoming one of my favorite lyricist.
quite a banger
Such a trip into something other than what was just going on in my reality. Thank you.
about time this song hit a million views

Cool story, bro.
Nah jp, forreal.
haven’t heard this song in 6 years, good to know it feels the same
Love the singing, hated it at first but had to question myself about it. After about 1 week of self reflection i have found i like it
I find this with a lot of the music I listen to. Almost takes a couple times to really appreciate it
I felt this
Hell of a song.
I'm here now, needed to hear this song again.
Very Nice, for a Sunday morning!
