I met them while hugging the wall at a Sun Ra Arkestra show they played after in 2016, they were both super humble and kind. I asked if they were gonna play together and Ira hesitated and then winked and said “don’t worry you’ll see”. Later they had a few Arkestra memebers join them for an hour long drone swell kind of set that was pretty cool. It was so bizarre because they were just random audience members diggin the show next to me when It dawned on me and I was like “oh fuck, that couple in front of me are my heroes.”
sometimes i look this video and i feel like this very guitar solo is the condensation of all those years and years of noise experimentation... wish i could have the chance to hear Ira play on a gig ... This solo gets me every single time.
Feels almost like a complimentary yet contrary retort to the sort of balance and acceptance of orders ability only to exist within and in harmony with chaos present in the main structure of the song, though I could be looking too hard into it lol
that's how the ylt do though, buddy, they like the effects. this is easily one of the most amazing bands I've seen live in all my days. the albums never seem to do them justice after you see them in person. raw passion and emotive power, they are hard workers. I'll show up whenever they do :)
Sometimes the bad guys go right on top Sometimes the good guys lose We try not to lose our hearts, not to lose our minds Sometimes the bad days may take their grip Sometimes the good days fade But the rain today hurts the head to drink But nothing ever stays the same Nothing's explained The harder the we go The longer we climb 'Cause this isn't the road we know So say good night to me Lose no more time No time 'Cause it's been fun I heard you called me From far away, far like the king Tut Having the voice to make it right So I just cry I fell to stay good So been away Before I could even see Tried once more Lost my ??? and we're gone But nothing ever stays the same Nothing's explained The longer it takes The looser the times 'Cause this isn't the road we know So say good night to me Lose no more time No time 'Cause this ain't the road But nothing ever stays the same Nothing's explained The stronger ??? The faster ??? 'Cause this isn't the road we know So say good night to me Lose no more time No time 'Cause this ain't the road 'Cause this ain't the road 'Cause this ain't the road 'Cause this ain't the road 'Cause this ain't the road 'Cause this ain't the road 'Cause this ain't the road 'Cause this ain't the road 'Cause this ain't the road
Sometimes the bad guys come out on top Sometimes the good guys lose We try not to lose our hearts, not to lose our minds Sometimes the bad days maintain their grip Sometimes the good days fade Hurts the brain to think, hurts the head to drink But nothing ever stays the same Nothing's explained The higher we go, the longer we fly 'Cause this is it for all we know So say good night to me And lose no more time, no time Resisting the flow I heard you calling from far away I thought I heard you cry Hadn't the voice to make it right So I just cry I felt you slipping, slipping away Before I could even see Tried once more, lost my grip, you were gone But nothing ever stays the same Nothing's explained The longer it takes, the looser the ties 'Cause this is it for all we know So say good night to me And lose no more time, no time Resisting the flow But nothing ever stays the same Nothing's explained The stronger the wind, the faster we'll fly Cause this is it for all we know So say good night to me And lose no more time No time Resisting the flow
who the mother F dislikes this. I mean why even watch. I assume if you watched this video, you like YLT. That being said, this is a killer take of a good song with a vicious noise solo by Kaplan....just boggles my mind that anyone would dislike this,let alone 300 people
I just can't get over how humble these guys look. Ira and Georgia look like they could be my parents and yet they rock out so fricken amazingly!
Wow I was just thinking they look like my grandchildren.... Was to make a guy feel old, Kris!

Should be the 1st song on your car's stereo when leaving on a road trip. Love this.
the most beautiful band in the world

Holy crap! That just happened... I just love this so much!
decades of greatness...thanks Yo La!! We love you!
Give it a beast mode to Ira Kaplan. Absolute killer solo. Makes me one to try some of his tricks. He's the real guitar hero.
kc768 Totally agree! I could listen to him all day.

Ira Kaplan is my soul animal
No other band even close to them. The best thing that happened to rock and roll since Lou Reed
I really love how the host is feeling it! Beautiful!

Geht kaum besser, vielen Dank !
¡Que sonido más puro y armonioso!
This is one of the greatest things I have heard. The words and music are so trans ambient . Soo cool
God just saw you guys in madrid, both versions you played blew my mind. Thank you.
Saw this on jimmy fallon. Blew my mind. Such an amazing song. Bravisimo :)
what a song
Kaplan UNHINGED! This band...so good. And so often too!
Sometimes the bad guys go right on top
Sometimes the good guys lose
We try not to lose our hearts, not to lose our minds
Sometimes the bad days may take their grip
Sometimes the good days fade
But the rain today hurts the head to drink
But nothing ever stays the same
Nothing's explained
The harder the we go
The longer we climb
'Cause this isn't the road we know
So say good night to me
Lose no more time
No time
'Cause it's been fun
I heard you called me
From far away, far like the king Tut
Having the voice to make it right
So I just cry
I fell to stay good
So been away
Before I could even see
Tried once more
Lost my ??? and we're gone
But nothing ever stays the same
Nothing's explained
The longer it takes
The looser the times
'Cause this isn't the road we know
So say good night to me
Lose no more time
No time
'Cause this ain't the road
But nothing ever stays the same
Nothing's explained
The stronger ???
The faster ???
'Cause this isn't the road we know
So say good night to me
Lose no more time
No time
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
'Cause this ain't the road
im pretty sure it says "resisting the flow"...for me it makes a lot of sense. Incredible lyrics, incredible song
"Sometimes the bad guys come out on top"
and, yes: "resisting the flow"
Sometimes the bad guys come out on top
Sometimes the good guys lose
We try not to lose our hearts, not to lose our minds
Sometimes the bad days maintain their grip
Sometimes the good days fade
Hurts the brain to think, hurts the head to drink
But nothing ever stays the same
Nothing's explained
The higher we go, the longer we fly
'Cause this is it for all we know
So say good night to me
And lose no more time, no time
Resisting the flow
I heard you calling from far away
I thought I heard you cry
Hadn't the voice to make it right
So I just cry
I felt you slipping, slipping away
Before I could even see
Tried once more, lost my grip, you were gone
But nothing ever stays the same
Nothing's explained
The longer it takes, the looser the ties
'Cause this is it for all we know
So say good night to me
And lose no more time, no time
Resisting the flow
But nothing ever stays the same
Nothing's explained
The stronger the wind, the faster we'll fly
Cause this is it for all we know
So say good night to me
And lose no more time
No time
Resisting the flow
I’ve always heard it as “cause this it for all we know” which I prefer
2 super reverbs for a tiny studio performance! such glorious excess volume!!
fantastic!
los mejores
Hah love these guys to bits...50 year old kids who never really left the garage...
Seriously, they just get better and better as time goes on.
God bless you yo la tengo!

love it
That solo was pretty great
wonderful!
Trippy, Haunting, Hypnotic. Ship it!
Epaleee!!!!!
glorious
Belleza músical
The trickiest job must be Georgia and James having to block Ira out and remain focused.
Glenn Branca would be proud ....great song !
I’m a fan.
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Oh wow Ira is NOT wearing another baggy striped tshirt here 😆
Ira
the height of his strat pickups are interesting.
Wait, I just realised one of Ira’s pickups is buried under the body a little bit… i wonder how long it has been since it was set up
My goodness gracious that is some fucking guitar
one day i'll find out how the hell Ira does what he does with his strat...
Fuck yeah!!!!!!!!!!!
Rawk piled upon rawk!
It's all too much!
No effects needed on the geetar solo!
Ohm,Sweet Ohm....no wait...thats another band...nvrmind...
guitar raping
oops 10 people
I bet Ira's guitar was out of tune after this noise solo....
Guitar solo out of tune
Gabriel Nery Inchausp 😂
Lmao
So much soul
