I do not own this song
Lyrics:
One day one woman asked him
'what do you to survive?'
he said 'oh my dear listen here'
and this is what he cried
On my feet I wear two shoes for dancing
'dancing to be free'
my feet they're paying tribute to
the Bobby Marley legacy
And my knees they've got some cuts and bruises
from skating all my days
'cos when I'm skating with my friends
my troubles drift away
I say my legs they're wearing baggy pants
I like to move around
'cos getting down and jumping up
these are some good things that I found
Aeehhhiiiaaaaa
boom shak the empire be rising
Aeehhhiiiaaaaa
boom shak we making some lovin
Aeehhhiiiaaaaa
boom shak the greedy men running
Aeehhhiiiaaaaa
boom shak got two shoes for dancing
And my waist it's got a slinky belt
with a clip that's quick to open
because a'loving is the sweetest thing
and from my waist it happen
And my stomachs got some tasty food
that's making me feel good
'cos sharing some meals is something
i wish the world could do
And my chest it wears a singlet
ah my chest it beating proud
my chest suggest I am a man
that no institution can knock down
And around my neck is superstition
hanging from a chain
because I've got my gods but in the end
I make my own way
CHORUS
My mouth it's got a great big smile
that shows some great big teeth
to friends it brings a happiness
and to enemies it means defeat
And my eyes they've got some vision
that can see through many lies
ah my eyes they look for better things
the better things to see in life
And my ears are wearing head phones
that do play my favourite songs
not music I'm told to like
but the songs that make me dance along
Cos on my feet are shoes for dancing
'dancing to be free'
my feet they're paying tribute to
the Bobby Marley legacy
CHORUS x2

It’s 2010, you listen to this song before hitting the trails on your bike. Life is good
Ah man, in the feel. Brings that float of the berms and single track rushing by
It's 2020, you listen to this song before hitting the balcony on your bike. Life is weird.
Man, im 100000% agree with u, thats my memories with that song
This album is a great party album.
Just came here to get this sound for a edit lol

Everytime I hear this, I get a huge grin across my face as I remember the whistler section from Seasons and all the good times I've had on my bike.
My sister introduced me to this song years ago.. how did I not realise she was a massive stoner
Haha, so true!!
😂😂😂😂
Ioan Pearce the real question is...
...why aren’t you a massive stoner? It’s a great thing to be man!
Long time ago.. I was depressed, and my friend made a video to cheer me up, this song played in that video. And it did cheer me up. And it still does. Every single time I feel down. I have lost that friend during the years.. but nonetheless, I feel thankful to him everytime I listen to this song.
That's something that happens to the few of us, but when you understand, you understand fully, and I do. Congrats on the ongoing recovery.
did he died or you are not talking to him anymore?
What a good friend :)
You hit me right in the feels
Listening two shoes here in the Philippines 03/02/22
Fan of cat empire since 2015
Brings me many emotions, sadness and happiness, sad that the memories i get are far behind, happy they happened
i can never get bored of this song....i will always come here and listen to it!!
I could and pretty much do, listen to this all day. One headphone in all the time with it playing, and its been like this for about a year now :P I just love it. So many memories of evenings camping around the beach, camp fire and marshmallows, jumping off the truck into the deep part of the lake... I love this song!

This song now appears in my head when I'm flying down Ski mountains!
Essence of life pours from this song. Have fun, be true to yourself and never shy from responsibility for your actions
He pronounces "Mountain Biking Downhill" a lot like "Skating with my Friends."
lmao

I remember when I was into nostalgia.
Absolutely killed it at boomtown!! Loved it soo much.
best live act I've seen. on the perfect stage at the end of the perfect weekend... the chariot was pretty much the highlight of my life haha
Yeah for sure one my all time favourites!! Truly awesome aha.
man havent heard this in like over a year. bringing back the feels
What a nice peace of art.
I used to listen to this song on repeat whilst hitchhiking across Europe.
It helped to get rides because I was dancing and smiling from ear to ear. People can feel better taking you along because that kind of happiness is infectious.
awesome!

Jesse Pinkman Great man! thanks!
I met the Cat Empire music preciselly due to the DH video of the Collective since I am DH rider (amateur of course) but as soon as I heard the song I was not watching the vid any more cause it hit me like a freight train in the most positive sense of the word....then I discovered th chariot song but TWO SHOES are talking to my soul....GREAT SONG....one can not stand still annd just listen to it.....
Love this! Massive inspiration for They Say Jump Reggae/ Latin band from London England. Big Love XXX
This Song Will never die
I love how almost every comment is about DH
MY EVERY DOWNHILL RACE
I love this song, Whenever I hear this song I remember the wonderful video of downhill ;)

Petar N
this is ska!
Shahrul Nizam
You can't reduce this to SKA, only because there is some trumpet ? :)
Laurent Simon What do you mean reduce? Ska is pretty great.
I mean this is not only ska, ther are many roots in this
Laurent Simon I really do think it is SKA...look it up on Wikipedia
2:47 - 3:06 reminds me of adele's set fire to the rain
nothing can make me more free, than this song.
This song never gets old
Ska jazz. Fuck yeah!
Raul Mejia nothing to do with jazz hahaha
Jonathan Zielke actually it does. Listen to some of their other songs. The genre changes throughout a lot of them. There's a lot of different types of jazz and the cat empire includes a few different types.
esta musica tiene emocion brutal. jajaja.
This makes me want to go on a journey through an endless coast surfing every single beach... 😎
I hummed California real bad to Soundhound and discovered this band. THANKS SOUNDHOUND!
Who's here in 2022?
2024
2024 i'm here
One day one woman asked him
What do you to survive?
He said 'oh my dear listen here
And this is what he cried
On my feet I wear two shoes for dancing
Dancing to be free
On my feet they're paying tribute to
The Bobby Marley legacy
On my knees they've got some cuts and bruises

Cause when I'm skating with my friends
My troubles drift away
I say my legs they're wearing baggy pants
I like to move around
Cause getting down and jumping up
These are some good things that I found
Aeehhhiiiaaaaa
Boom shak the empire be rising
Aeehhhiiiaaaaa
Boom shak we making some lovin
Aeehhhiiiaaaaa
Boom shak the greedy men running
Aeehhhiiiaaaaa
Boom shak got two shoes for dancin'
On my waist it's got a slinky belt
With a clip that's quick to open
Because loving is the sweetest thing
And from my waist it happens
And my stomach got some tasty food
That's making me feel good
Cause sharing some meals is something
I wish the world could do
Where my chest it wears a singlet
Where my chest it beating proud
Oh my chest suggest I am a man
That no institution can knock down
And around my neck is superstition
Hanging from a chain
Because I've got my gods but in the end
I make my own way

And my eyes they've got some vision

Or my eyes they look for better things
The better things to see in life
Where my ears are wearing head phones
That do play my favorite songs
Not music I'm told to like
But the songs that make me dance along
Cause on my feet are shoes for dancing
Dancing to be free
On my feet they're paying tribute to

I didn't come here from downhill, but from a guy who made me fall in love with him, this band, AND downhill :)
Damn, I'm with a broken leg and this music just make me want to stand up and dance....
Really hard man
This music is great. It's like getting stoned legally.
Me: one
Authorities: zero
hahahahaha best comment
2:48 set fire to the rain
Brilliant catch!
Best touring band on the planet right now, AFAIK. Really excited to be seeing them in NYC for the third time, coming up next month. As good as they are here, their live show is unbelievable.
Interesting
Jay Avitable
They shut down Flinders street station and it's intersection (basically the heart of melbourne) so they could play a set at 2am. Awesome shit.
Hugh Colclough This coming Saturday night in New York City! Not sure HOW I am going to survive the work week :)
This song now appears in my head when I'm flying down Ski mountains! It's become my "relax and just fkn jump it" tune...
Me falto tanto tiempo para disfrutar más cosas contigo aghhh ojalá lo hubiésemos o lo tengamos en cualquier otra vida
The Collective: Season
Haxel Gornall classic segment, Whistler
