I'm sure that a 52-year-old father of three adults isn't the target demographic for either Phoebe or Noah & Abby, but after finding Phoebe's Motion Sickness, I soon found Noah's Lover...and I have been avid fans of both since. Independent of each other, they are extremely emotional singer/songwriters...something this world needs more and more of every day. They also both have the ability to strip down their songs, play them in a group, with an acoustic guitar, or a piano and violin. Together...in this back-to-back combination of songs...well, this is nothing short of perfection. The harmonies, the pianos, but without the emotion in all three of their voices - it would just be a good performance. It isn't. It's magic. Beethoven once said, ""To play a wrong note is insignificant; to play without passion is inexcusable." As a kid who played the piano and whose mother would let him know when he made a mistake on songs of her choosing, I stopped playing in high school. Picked it up again in college, then life got in the way. I've gotten back into it just last year, and had even played in a new band, my first gig ever - before the world changed. Those of you who play an instrument, or whose voice is one - do it with passion. That's what makes this something I must stop everything and watch and listen to - each and every time. (Sometimes I even watch it again, and type a comment for what seems like the entire 8 minute performance.)
Thank you for your share!
Thanks for sharing.
I'm 64 with an eclectic taste in music which I'm so glad my 24 year old daughter has embraced. I've been listening to Noah Gunderson for years, but my daughter introduced this masterpiece to me. We were traveling from Charlotte, NC to Jacksonville FL to visit her mother and she had this on the travel play list she made for us for that trip. I am so grateful for her, and the heart and soul of music.
Well said.
@@dbcoll1957 How beautiful!
I wanted to say thank you. Don't know if you guys will ever see this but I need to say it. I met my best friend asking for a duet partner to sing this with me. A year ago he was killed trying to protect his boyfriend from being the victim of a hate crime. Both families disapproved so his bf and I were left to plan and pay for everything on our own. I sang this as a solo at his funeral. It makes me cry everytime. But it means so much to me, that he can live through this song. Thank you! ❤❤❤
Damn man... that’s heavy. Phoebe’s Stranger in the Alps entire albums is like that for me. It’s closely tied to personal tragedy in my life and It rips my heart out. It’s hard to listen to these days but still so important to me. I hope you’re doing well.
that's heartbreaking to hear. I found Punisher about a week after my mom passed, and I was amazed at how much music can heal. it can tell stories in a way that immerse you like no other form of media could ever hope to mimic
I'm so sorry. Thank you for sharing; may he rest in peace.
To their shame
I’m so sorry
Abby Gundersen is such a great musician, her playing binds the whole set together
It is almost ironic how well these two beautiful songs run parallel to each other, and merge so gracefully together.
Right? “Keeping nothing for yourself like a stone cold killer” really sounds like a lyric Phoebe would come up with
seriously, this breaks my heart and at the same time it fills me up with light. the talent in this video is ridiculous
Can we all appreciate the brilliance of their three part harmonies from 6:44-6:55?
Nick Dreher yes ❤️❤️
Now I’m waiting for it lol
Utterly Amazing Harmonies!!!
Really is amazing.
This version of THE SOUND is absolutely perfect!!!
When you hear their own songs respectively it's amazing that they wrote this masterpiece combination. Could not have been done any better. Literal emotion evoking perfection.
Would also LOVE this on vinyl.
Daaaaamn I wish they would collaborate on every song ever
Darude - Sandstorm would be pretty freaking lit
LYRICS
Sometimes I think I'm a killer
Scared you in your house
Even scared myself by talking
About Dahmer on your couch
But I can't sleep next to a body
Even harmless in death
Plus I'm pretty sure I'd miss you
Faking sleep to count your breath
Can the killer in me
Tame the fire in you?
Is there nothing left to do for us?
I am sick of the chase
But I'm hungry for blood
And there's nothing I can do
But when I'm sick and tired
When my mind is barely there
When a machine keeps me alive
And I'm losing all my hair
I hope you kiss my rotten head
And pull the plug
Know that I've burned every playlist
And given all my love
Can the killer in me
Tame the fire in you?
I know there's something waiting for us
I am sick of the chase
But I'm stupid in love
And there's nothing I can do
And there's nothing I can do
Nothing ever comes like it did when you were in it
Just a memory of a kid, just a washed out finish
Just a pain-in-the-ass Johnny Cash middle finger
No shooting up drugs, no quitter is a winner
Nothing ever comes like it did when you were in it
Keeping nothing for yourself like a stone cold killer
Now you're passing your people like a ship in the night
Looking to every stranger for a fight
Nothing ever comes, ever comes if you call it
Choking like a dog, like a dog on a collar
Open up your mouth, your mouth if you want it
Listen for the sound, the sound, the sound is coming down
Hoping that you like, that you like how you're living
Relying on the kindness of strangers that you will be forgiven
How many times, how many times will you shit on what you're given?
How many times, how many times 'til you shut up and listen?
Nothing ever comes, ever comes if you call it
Choking like a dog, like a dog on a collar
Open up your mouth, your mouth if you want it
Listen for the sound, the sound, the sound is coming down
Nothing ever comes, ever comes
Choking like a dog, like a dog
Open up your mouth
Listen for the sound, the sound, the sound is coming down
Nothing ever comes, ever comes if you call it
Choking like a dog, like a dog on a collar
Open up your mouth if you want it
Listen for the sound, the sound, the sound is coming down
The fact I can’t listen to this 8 min song without an ad just makes me lose faith in humanity. Beautiful song. Wish RUclips didn’t interrupt that feeling I was feeling before the ad started.
Ublock Origin and Sponsorskip plugins will give you your RUclips experience back.
I am also a 53-year-old mother of three adult children😉 I found this song on Spotify and I haven't been able to listen to anything else for several days. It touches me in so many ways. Thanks 🙏
yep - perfect
This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
“and when i’m sick and tired
and my mind is barely there
when a machine keeps me alive
and i’m losing all my hair
i hope you kiss my rotten head
and pull the plug”
a love so deep, so all-consuming that you will let yourself whither away and die, still holding on tight to the other. a lover that watches as you fade away, a lover that will hopefully someday put you out of your misery.
the pain in this song is tangible. truly breathtaking.
I don't think I've been emotionally moved by a song in so long. This piece of art is so healing. 🖤
Just rewatched this and it hit me a lot harder the second time around. Not just as a pretty song, but as a musician. There’s so much more than conviction here- There's pain wrapped up in the beautiful melodies, and they all converge in a really vulnerable place. This is the difference between singing a song and living it. If you don't bleed a little (emotionally), you might never find that place where art and pain and beauty and joy all coalesce into something real yet transcendent at the same time.
Has heart and soul
Couldn't agree more. I have no idea what both Phoebe and Noah have gone through but they make you feel so much regardless!
Wonderfully said.
I feel like Phoebe's entire album comes from a place of genuine conviction & vulnerability...But, you are absolutely correct, on second listen this is even more powerful.
I love this comment so much. Couldn't agree more
perfect combination
CardinalSessions yes . Would you have them on your channel? (Religious watcher right here)

After the harmonies on "How many times, how many times" and Noah sings "will you shit on what you're given?" wow... so fragile and tender 5:32
For the people wondering about Noah's face
He got punched at the bar by a guy the night before the Seattle concert this last tour
At the concert he joked about Phoebe did it
Thank you. I was wondering.
This looks like more than just getting punched. He looks like he went 12 rounds with Mike Tyson.
That's so rock n roll!
but who could punch such a sweet face. rude.
Figured it had something to do with alcohol
Amazing song. Can we get some love for the audio engineers on this one.
The selfishness of wanting the suffering of the one you love to end, even if he too wants it to stop - makes you a "killer." The hardest love is the letting go. The hardest love is the letting go because the end is accepted. Every death, every divorce knows this. The precious has to pass without us, not you and I, but Us. The beauty of together stops suddenly. And in the aftermath, how to deal with the guilt? Trying to break free, only to choke on the collar that holds your guilt back. You did the right, but it feels like your love was somehow the end of the love itself. Come up for a breath. Realize in the open air, there is freedom in the beauty of letting them go, to let love live again.
James Cook ok James cook u beautiful bastard
You rendered me speechless. May I use this for a backing audio track?
Beautifully stated.
Your post has been copied and pasted into a text file on my desktop. i WILL be using it as inspiration whenever I get writer's block. Beautiful work!
@@Turtleburtle44 thanks
Coming back to this 3 years later I can’t believe this is how I discovered phoebe Bridgers. These two are my current favorite artists on the last few years and I’d kill to see them together again.
This gotta be the most beautiful thing I have heard all year. They literally pour their soul into this performance.
2:24 Phoebe's "a-all" gives me the chills on every part of my body, inside and outside
You’d love the girl who sings in the song Sleep Don’t Weep by Damien Rice.
They really need to do a whole album together.
her voice is absolutely flawless
Best 8 minutes of my day. Every single day.
Every day RUclips suggests I re-listen to this song, and everyday I succumb with joy
Once in a while something unexpected comes up on RUclips when you're listening on autoplay that just takes your breath away with it's beauty and simplicity. Nice job Phoebe, Abby, and Noah.
Amen
Again, a 52 yr old. This is such a beautiful, amazing performance, moves me to tears without fail every time 😢
yep - perfect
When RUclips manages a tiny bit of magic and introduces you to the most beautiful moment of music possible.
YES... Such amazingly talented people...
This Noah guy has been fkn my shit up for a week. What rock am I living under?
A big one. U okay now?
Welcome to the club. He's messed me up for the last decade at least.
I'm not a fan of him or his music, but he's fucking perfect for this song. Looks like he was talking when he should have been listening the night before LOL :)
thats a big rock mate
Discovered him in sons of anarchy
I can't read this without tearing up. I feel my loved ones getting older and being there by their side while they whisper this song as the life slowly fades away.
"But when I'm sick and tired
And when my mind is barely there
When a machine keeps me alive
And I'm losing all my hair
I hope you kiss my rotten head
And pull the plug
Know that I've burned every playlist
And I've given all my love"
I listen to this song at least 3 times each day like I don't even get half of it, it's just so so beautiful. Certain turns of phrase, certain lines just hurt
Why is someone always cutting onions when I listen to this? 😄
All of Phoebe's stuff has a soul which is so relatable. Beautiful!
Blew my mind. Hauntingly beautiful. Wonderful song. I'm literally speechless.
I have only recently found Phoebe's music. It has become my new obsession. And this is amazing! I need to dive into Noah's work now too.
I love this arrangement so much that I had my daughter dance to it at my wedding. Looking forward to seeing Phoebe in Salt Lake City in a couple of weeks, and hoping that Noah and his family come back to Utah soon. Thank you so much for music that is so sincere and so deeply moving. I hope you realize how much your art enriches people's lives.
Just found this amazing music. So sad I missed her when she was here.

Pretty sure we can hear what they’re saying just fine
thanks for posting the lyrics ! nice to be able to see them
Thank you
I was hoping I’d find the lyrics!! Thank you 😊
À
There is so much life in the souls of Phoebe and Noah! I'd pay a lot to see this live.
I was listening to a lot of Phoebe when this video came out, and was introduced to Noah and Abby. I am still a Phoebe fan, but Noah has since become my favourite artist. Love all his music, so soulful. Coming back to this video now, it's still absolutely incredible. What a performance by all involved.
Always keep coming back to this tune. Such lovely chemistry.
Me too, same story , I'm 53. Never thought I would be listening to this stuff. Now I have to hear Phoebe every day. I'm sooo not tough! Thanks for making me realize it!
yep - it's perfect
This is the most beautiful song I've ever graced my ears with in my life.
I come back to this all the time. One of those rare masterpieces that you’ll never forget 🖤 This introduced me to Noah and Abby Gundersen and I’m so grateful
It's a classic. Those songs are timeless and they just nail it together. I never grow tired of listening to them
This is the first time I've listened to Noah's voice...I just started crying when he began to sing.
Noah, you and Abby you are amazing. So good.. keep doing what you are doing
There's the music, the harmonies, the chemistry, the ubiquitous drone filling the blank spaces, and the handover from track to track, and those checks would suffice to call this video very good.
Yet, for some other reasons I cannot fathom right now, this is something else than very good:
This could well be the most *lovely* music video I've seen in my life.
I'd do some unlawful things for this sheet music
Try Chordify. Then u know the chords and u should be able to check it out
Id do some unlawful things for a piece of Noah Gundersen....
Everytime I come back to this, I read this and think Nicholas Cage would say that in a action movie. Lol
The beginning part is easy!
Piano 1:
G E C G E C
Piano 2 (right hand):
B G E B G E
Piano 2 (left hand):
C (plus another C an octave higher, held out for 4 measures)
E (same as above)
I'm working on transcribing it!
This song absolutely kills me. I hope they do more collaborations. The three of them harmonizing together is pure emotion for me.
A drop kick to the heart... Brutally beautiful.
No joke. This song kills me.
That is what I love about music. It has the ability to move people like nothing else can.
A kick to my stomach... this song makes me puke.
Wonderful performance and amazing audio engineering.
This was my first introduction to Phoebe, and I am so glad. Also, this is what Heaven sounds like.
Wow!!! I want a full album of collaborations between these three!!! This is amazing!!
Complete masterpiece of music, poetry and artistry
Phoebe, Your voice and song will always blooms in the beautiful sadness. I have followed your music since your EP and you became what you always were, a joy to my night drive playlist. From Malaysia xx
pheobe blows me away on a regular basis - so deep - so beautiful and so talented !
That explains the white stuff all around her face XD
Watching this for the 2nd time around has SO MUCH more emotion as the one I have loved a lifetime just left my side. Thank you Noah, Abby & Phoebe for the much needed hard cry.
why is the title for this video a complex math equation?
lol
Just to prove that art is as complex as math.
That Copernicus' "Random notes of awesomeness equation". It equals good music times the square root of fun quotient.
Phoebe Bridgers + Noah & Abby Gundersen - Killer + The Sound(Official Video) ⇔
1 + 2 - 3 + sin(e) ≈ 0.047
right😭
music that draws emotion out of the listener is a long lost art this revives my hope in the music industry
we can at least hope...
This is one of the most beautiful things I've seen and heard. The piano, the individual voices and the harmonies. It's just so good. 🙌💙
Chills. Stunning vocals from everybody. More collaborations, please!
This is one of the most beautiful collaborations I have heard in some time. Well done one and all!
Their voices are absolute perfection together…
A week ago I loved this song. Today it hurt too much to listen to it. Love death and time weigh heavy on the wounded heart.
I'd love to be Phoebe's friend
I just want to high five her and say thanks. Does that count?
One of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. Both incredible artists in their own right ♥️.
This just gets better each time I revisit it. I am a fan of Phoebe and Noah and Abby and the unique but relatable emotions they paint with their music so it intrigued me that they recorded together. When I first heard it, I liked it but was thrown by it because I was just trying to understand how the songs fit together. The more you listen to it though, you begin to let their performances and words really marry and sit with you, and it fascinates me how these two songs begin to create a deeper meaning like a good book, but with music. It's not clear to me exactly what it is, and I'm sure it's a little different to everyone who hears it, but it really taps into quite a feeling listening to these two songs back to back in such a fluid way.
What a wonderful way to say it. Thank you for this
Emery, are there other artists you would recommend that have this kind of passion and sadness? I’m hooked.
Oh boy am I feeling blessed after listening to this
Lo
Been pushing off watching this song for some time for fear of not being able to handle it. Still couldn’t. But fucking hell. Sheer beauty.
I have never heard of any of these people but for the love of music this is simply irresistible
I've listened to this many times and still can't get over how good it is
Sittin here in the middle of the night fighting my demons as they try and destroy the heaven I built and this song is just giving me the strength to defeat my internal opposition
Great way to phrase that
How are you, on the other side?
My kind advice is that we will always have that inner struggle, I will always be my worst enemy and critic. Remembering that it will never go away really does help me deal with it better in the present. I’ll never stop struggling as long as I’m human
@@SethCorbinMusic Wow . What an unexpected and profound reply . Forgot I even left a comment on this song and haven’t heard it in a year . A year ago I was in a very dark place and I’m still there ; Deeper in the darkness actually ; But it’s a substantive darkness ; The type of darkness from which the universe was spawned . Im bringing a new reality into existence out of the darkness ; a reality I was once afraid of but now would only be afraid to not manifest . Thank you again for your reply . Just wow . What a moment of reflection for me . 🙏🏾
this is still the most beautiful thing I've ever heard
Stuff like this reminds you why music is important. beautiful.
I've now seen and heard the most beautiful thing that this life can possibly offer.
I cant stop listening to this, its just simply incredible
Most beautiful song in the world amazing artists all three 💕💕💕
this song holds such intense and intricate emotions, I feel this song in the same part of my chest every time I listen. absolutely amazing.
i'm so glad spotify recommended me this track because i am now utterly obsessed with phoebe and i don't think that'll ever change
"Faking sleep to count your breaths"
"....or is there nothing left to do for us?"
"....but i'm too stupid in love"
wow, these reminds you of your painful breakups ;_;
I've heard this before, but, it's the first time I've listened to it. Gorgeous.
Nothing like an ad break in the middle of this emotional piece of music. It really sells the meaning of the song.
Fr bro. What the hell
Two words: RUclips Premium!
I know I am late! Years late! But this takes my breath away! So incredibly beautiful! You guys are amazing musicians! ❤️🩷💜🩵
Absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the piano in this! I came through to this from autoplay on youtube and I can't wait to listen to more from you all! I've seriously replayed this maybe 10 times so far. Amazing
This is so incredible. Never heard anything else like it in my life.
oh my gosh 💜
both of their voices together will kill me for sure.
it's like my life is fulfilled with this one song, particularly this arrangement. aah. i can go in peace, whenever it comes.
thank you.
I think this version of Killer is the only song I’ve ever heard that describes how deeply sad I am
So beautifully yet painfully encapsulating the feeling. I hear you. You are seen 💜
It's presence & passion is what I love about the combined track and will never get tired of listening!!
So unreal that Noah could use The Sound + Phoebe had Killer,and along came this beautiful piano music,and the third harmony with Abby Gundersen...and GOOSEBUMPS EVERY TIME! Music like this rarely happens anymore. They all have amazing talent! Stripping music back to what is important!
This song reminds me of someone I love . I wonder if he is doing alright sometimes . Its silly how I always come to this place every time I miss him.
This reminds me of my ex and the only girl I’ve been in love with… these two really do a great job of bringing out the feeling of true loss and true love at the same time.
Beautiful and meaningful~ touching and real... Saved for the right time...now is the time...
This is seriously my favorite! Love this so much! Noah Gundersen has always impressed me ever since I heard a song from SOA. Now I’ll have to listen to more Phoebe!
Anyone else hear the subtle spin of the reel to reel? This is such a magical piece. Thanks for making my heartbreaking day well mended with your ear drum massage.
Love it, phoebe needs a duet with Andy Shauf for sure!!
I have to thank my 10-yr old daughter for introducing me to this. "Hey kid, check this out." - plays YYZ by Rush - "That's cool. I like it! Now here's my song. " - weeps openly -
"I hope you kiss my rotten head and pull the plug" is such an impactful line for some reason. Fuck, I feel it.
Wow. His harmony is incredible and unique and goes in an unexpected direction. AMAZING.
This song brings my soul back to my body, like I can breathe for the first time.
