    " Elephants "
    Painted as monsters,
    borracho, cansado.
    Do you know what the people say?
    Plucked from the garden
    of wicked beliefs,
    I offer a rose
    and smile with harmless teeth.
    Then slick back my hair,
    You know the devil's in there?
    Alone in the garden.
    Like lumbering giants
    in a shameful parade,
    we came to ruin all and
    make a rotten trade.
    So roll over...
    Scattered on the shore,
    surely washed away.
    Feeling somewhat deserving
    of what will be someday.
    No I can never stay melancholy,
    I've the memory of your face.
    No I can never stay melancholy for long...
    until I move on.
    We're unwanted strangers,
    exploited and dangerous,
    unable to hide or even dream of it.
    Como estas?
    parting the seas,
    like lepers who stroll,
    why you afraid sweety?
    I slick back my hair,
    you know the devil's in there?
    So keep one eye open baby.
    We're so easy to spot,
    lepers riding atop.
    Pachyderms full of germs,
    elephants broken and screaming and...
    Scattered on the shore
    surely washed away.
    Feeling somewhat deserving
    of what will be someday.
    No I can never stay melancholy,
    I've the memory of your face.
    All alone in the garden
    of long lost hopeful plans.
    No I can never stay anything.....
    for long.

    JPJ is probably the oldest guy in the stadium (about 65 here), laying down lines that all the kids in the audience are grooving to. That's just cool.

      takes the limelight away from the superstars. johannes is their best guitar player when theyre live. not dissing the others but hes on a different plain.

      @aghamom 8 лет назад +2

      Really? Better than Josh? I mean tons of respect to Johannes, he's had his hands in numerous seminal albums and is a very very good guitarist, but better than Josh? I doubt that.

    • @aghamom
      @aghamom 8 лет назад

      Also to answer your question, its because he's not part of the band, he isn't part of Them Crooked Vultures, the band that people came to see. This happens with bands like Black Keys too.
      Btw, the cover of Elephants on your page, nice stuff!!

    • @NIIVES
      @NIIVES 8 лет назад +5

      ***** Hm I can understand what you say, but I still disagree with the fact they did that. If you're on the stage for the night, you're part of the god damn band for the night. No big egos, just fun and good music is my opinion!
      And thank you for the amazing compliment on my video!! I appreciate it and it motivates me to upload the new videos I've been working on soon. I was also impressed by the drummer, for the fact that he was able to jam Dave Grohl's drums while singing. It was an honor to be the singer and guitarist in that band as long as it lasted!! (except for that night ofc, as he wanted to sing on his own exam haha)

    • @aghamom
      @aghamom 8 лет назад +1

      Rabin Miguel as musicians yeah, that's how we see it, but that's how businesses work man. The average music fan would be turned off wondering who's the extra bald guy. 'I paid to see Grohl not some bald dude' we appreciate Johannes cause we've seen his talent and of course we understand the suffering of a musician so to say hahaha. I know TCV seems like that band, and I love it for that, don't care attitude, just 3 friends jamming hahaha.
      You're welcome!! Please do upload more! Looking forward to more TCV stuff hehe. Oh ikr, I'm a drummer by heart and even i lose focus whenever I try to hum the melody of a song. Singing and playing is a very very under-appreciated skill.

      This comment is 12 years old but, as someone who learned the song on drums, the beat is not simple at all to play. It requires independent movement from both arms and legs while keeping the beat steady with the open hi hat.

      I understand your sentiment. JPJ plays a lot of chords it seems in this song, and sometimes when the treble is lower it sounds "farty" for lack of a better word. Maybe this is why his tone is so treble-y?
