    Even though the man with the shaker percussion instrument is simply doing his job by just shaking an instrument. The intensity and passion on his face just makes you feel the love he has for his craft. I think his expressions set the tone for the setting and song perfectly.

    Life's too short to even care at all oh
    I'm losing my mind losing my mind losing control
    These fishes in the sea they're staring at me oh oh oh oh oh oh
    A wet world aches for a beat of a drum, oh
    If I could find a way to see this straight, I'd run away
    To some fortune that I, I should have found by now
    I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down, come down
    Life's too short to even care at all oh
    I'm coming up now coming up now out of the blue oh
    These zombies in the park they're looking for my heart oh oh oh oh
    A dark world aches for a splash of the sun oh oh
    If I could find a way to see this straight, I'd run away
    To some fortune that I, I should have found by now
    And so I run to the things they said could restore me
    Restore life the way it should be
    I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down
    Life's too short to even care at all oh
    I'm losing my mind losing my mind losing control
    If I could find a way to see this straight, I'd run away
    To some fortune that I, I should have found by now
    And so I run to the things they said could restore me
    Restore life the way it should be
    I'm waiting for this cough syrup to come down

    they sound amazing (of course) but what hits me every time is the background vocals + harmony (from the drummer, francois, i think?) - it's just so beautiful blended into sameer's voice. they all show so much passion for their music in live sessions, it's inspiring.

Saw them in concert and it was one of the best nights of my life, their music is just so unique and catchy, I never get tired. One of the only bands that can have a completly new take on their songs when they are played acoustic, I love listening to everything they do.
    These guys are going to make it big. Some of the best music in the world is being played here.
