Ok, its 2023 now. This video is sitting at 999K views. I can easily listen to this a thousand times. Heres to marching to one million in 2023.
Thank you Two Gallants, this track alone has helped me through so much in life.
it’s only 78 away now!
It’s a mil…. I’ve probably listened over 1000 times in 10+ years.
the same here!
I think this is the most viewed Two Gallants song, and it has less than a million views? This band is so damn underrated!
instaBlaster...
11 years after your comment this still holds true, still under 1 Million. Awesome band that I come back to every once in awhile.
Carrion Crow has more views and less time (granted only a year's worth).
@@thegutterking 12 years later and this no longer holds true. This video now has over 1 million views :)
one of my favorite songs of all time.. every time I hear it the lyrics seem to get deeper and I can relate yo it more...
Same here.
This song was done a great disservice by this music video. The lyrics ring true for anyone who's ever been a young man trying (unsuccessfully) to follow the advice of his friends, "get over her by getting under someone else "
What's it about?
@@AndroidOO3 basically it's about a guy who's hooking up for a one night stand with a rebound girl. They both know they're only doing it 'cause they cannot get what they really want and that they, in the end, do not mean anything to each other. So after the act he'd be walking back home, as there is nothing real between them. The guy is recalling the better times, when he didn't have to behave like this (hence he had a soul)
Very nice weather
One of my favorite weathers so far! :D
It's pretty good!
This is lyrical genius. Beautifully dark and poetic.
And he’s horrifically underrated in that. His “insults” are some of the most biting insults I’ve ever heard.
they're both PHENOMENAL musicians. Its amazing that he can play those complicated riffs, sing, and sometimes play harmonica at the same time.
best 5 bucks ever spent for a hour of majestic sounds captured in a concert held in a basement and a light bulb.
I am incredibly jealous. These guys had lightning in a bottle.
saw them in a little club in Salzburg/Austria for three times, three times pure energy pure sound pure feeling, miss this great experience
Thats how I first saw Modest Mouse live in late 90s in a basement in Gainesville FL
Agreed. I bought an £8 ticket to see them in the Electric Ballroom in Camden town! They were amazing and they played this song
the farmhouse in las cruces nm was a little too wild for me, i saw these guys once very drunk and loud
Thanks to the movie Silk Road I found this band, and I'm very grateful. Easily one of my favorite discovered artists of 2021, along with another two member power house called Pil & Bue from Norway. I really hope we can see a Two Gallants concert here in Kelowna B.C.
My favorite weather thus far.
So glad I’m one of the million❤
Fun fact: "Two Gallants" is the name of one of the short stories in James Joyce's collection "Dubliners" :)
one of the best songs ever written....can make anyone ponder the mistakes of their life and give hope for things that may happen
Saw them in Hamburg. Best concert ever. They made me cry, it was so beautiful and emotional.
Great weather
Thank you Jesus.
their recorded stuff doesn't give justice to the ferocity and soulfulness they treat their songs with in the live shows.
honestly, they are one of the best live shows ive seen; i've been to two of their shows in two different cities already.
my last.fm recommended this 12 years ago and, woah boy, have these men reached me again and again over the years
nice weather we're having today
One of the greatest live act I've ever seen! And they produce suck a thick sound with only two members!! Atleast that's how many were in the band when I saw them.
And now the weather…
this is a live show you must see. ive seen them twice and each time is a treat. tyson vogel is probably the most intense drummer you will ever see
I love listening to the weather..
Beautiful weather here
Thanks, Cecil.
This is one of my favorite bands, songs, poems of all times. Oh, I so wish I could see them live just once.
I've been listening to this song for...what?...almost four years now? And it's still just as powerful as ever.
Sweet. Just Sweet.
One of the songs from "Welcome to Nightvale" that I will come back to for a listen
Bientôt en France, il est grand temps !!!!
His soul was in the box. Helping the kid gave him the key to it despite what you might think. Great weather
Lyrics
Well, I guess by the blood stain of your lips
And the wander of your fingertips
I should prove true to my emptiness
And stay here
Well, I'm just a kid of ill repute
But the skin I wear is my only suit
And you, you're just a substitute
For the one that I hold dear
You know, you could be anyone
God forgive my tasteless tongue
I never should have been set free
I claw my eyes, I skin my face
Beg somehow to be replaced
That's how we deal with boys like me
Well, I guess for this world so sick with loss
And your service is so free of cost
I should climb down off my rugged cross
And lay with you
But you know, by now it's half past late
And I only came here for escape
You you're just my next mistake
Like me to you
You know, you could be anyone
God forgive your unborn sons
I hope they don't end up like me
I drag my mind through streets of shame
Lay myself forgive the game
That's how we deal with boys like me
But despite what you've been told
I once had a soul
Left somewhere behind
A former friend of mine
And I hate to speak so free
But you mean nothing to me
So if the street lights they shine bright
I’ll get home tonight
I guess by the dim light in your eyes
And that to you all things come as a surprise
I should set the steel trap of your thighs
And dive right in
But to you I'm just a confused child
Insecure or in denial
Go raise your robes, go have your trial
I’ll let you win
You know, I could be anyone
God forgive what I should've done
A thoughts enough to guilty be
Yes, I guess I made this bed
But I’ll take the sidewalk instead
That's how we deal with boys like me
But despite what you've been told
I once had a soul
Left somewhere behind
A former friend of mine
And I hate to sound so true
But I mean nothing to you
So, if the street lights they shine bright
I’ll be home tonight
Loved this song for 6 years now fuck how times change more so how I change
man I'm cringe
@@shinisaber Your original comment wasn't cringe at all
This song is getting me through some hard times. Thanks Two Gallants
Everyone should get to know tha music of Two Gallants...
its already 10 (almost 11) years o_o
I keep coming back.
Beautiful song.
Wow these guys are amazing. I could listen to this song everyday and never get sick of it.
This is so beautiful...
This song and video never get old.
this song is spectacular
I don't know where my ears have been for the past 16 fuggin years, but I heard this song during the credits of a movie and HAD to find out who sounds like a modern day Rush... Or coheed and cambria that wanted a not so heavy sounds.... Dumb,I know, BUT THAT'S WHAT WENT THRU MY NOGGIN!!
The most deepest and beautiful lyrics I've heard in a very long time. They way it just flow rhythmcally in his voice. I love the trembling in his vioce, like he's delibering a deep heart felt confession.
"That how they deal with boys like me"
I wish I could write this good. This song is utterly flawless.
I saw them in Hamburg, best concert ever.
one of the best songs in ages
i just got all three of their albums off itunes. and i love every single track.
where have they been all my life.
Two Gallants u love to love good music...well this man does. Carpe Deium.
+Andrew Brashear agree
I almost cry! I think his soul was on the box, that´s why the kid was smiling. Very good video!
ya - I would say he's struggling too. But the pictures of the woman that apparently he misses, and the little chest that he can't open until someone (unknown to him, perhaps and angel figure) gives him the key to finally open it. I think it represents his willingness to accept and access his loss of the woman, after a long time of being locked out of himself.
"The smallest things in life, can be the most rewarding" type of sentiment.
I saw these guys on a dvd of bonouru(cant spell) and have loved them ever since. Awesome song.
OUTSIDE LANDS!
That was the most genuine feeling I've heard in a song in years. This band is on my list for the record store. Great video. Very well suited to the song.
whats up dude
@@marccastillo965 what's up dude
@@TheIntranetExplorer Lol why did I comment this
What lovely weather~
Lovely weather today
Its all C,F and G. In the refrain it goes to an Am. The lick in the refrain goes 3-1-0 on the E then 3 on the B string.
I just checked these guys out because they're playing at a festival I'm going to this summer. Their music was described as "melancholy garage folk" and I was like, "ok, these guys sound cool".
Best decision I've ever made.
This band will change your life.
In my top 5 bands.
GOD! I love these guys so much. Best find of 2017 for me. I'm absolutely in love with this band.
this video is beautiful. It is a MUST to see one of their shows, it'll become an instant favorite.
yes the hand that held me down is such a goooooooddddd song!
Whatever makes you cry.
O i listened to this song so so much. Totally forgot about two gallants; glad sometimes i still browse through senseless commentsections
beautiful, very beautiful and exciting
i like this music video, and two gallants rock
Brilliant gig in the Roisin Dubh in Galway last week, and the after party wasnt bad either!
such a great band. definitely my favorite band of the last several years, hopefully for many to come!
I really liked this video. really stylish what the did with their silhouettes and the contrast between light and dark.
I envisioned these guys a 14 year old's. No matter. The lyrics and the "contained" instruments are worth it.
Music is what feelings sound like🎸
Fantastic duo. This song is beautiful.
Truly.
Best band out right now. .
This would be a great Theme Song for a TV Show, especially something on Netflix or Hulu.
stoked to see they are coming to st. augustine fl
Saw these guys in Philly @ Johnny Brenda's last night. SERIOUSLY looking forward to their new album.
this is one of my favourite songs at the moment. brilliant
I went to see te Two Gallants yesterday at Koko in Camden, they were so good i wish it could have gone on all night.
Tome Waits, Speedo from RFTC and this guy are the best lyricists I heard.
Just heard on ‘Silk Road’- you guys now have a FAN GIRL!!! 🙌🏼
Filmed in San Francisco :) We love the Two Gallants.
if he didn't sing at all at the show i was at, i could have lived.
yay for saddle creek records!!!
we love you, conor.
Powerful video as it relates to the song....
this makes me so melancholy.
Amazing. No other words need to be said.
“You know you could be anyone”
I was @ that show... f'ing greatness. I spent ~$55 downloading all of their music on Amazon before their set was done. Great to hear an original sound vs. recycled/auto-tuned $hit.
It is so awesome that they got featured!
DOUR!!!!
Never heard of them. Very nice.
Hell yeah. What a comment!! AlphonsusFitzgibbon, you are made of 100% pure awesome.
