Oh-oo-oh
High up in a chamber
She painted pictures of the land that made her
Oh-oo-oh
Shadowed by a clock face
The hands arrested at the time she came and
When she peered outside
She saw the birds so high
That she made a wish
To grow one day her own pair of wings
She sailed long from afar
To find herself in the world
When in the wind she heard an island call
And so she followed it and came ashore
On a beach with a crowd
("We waited here for you")
Then a voice said it was true
"We all prayed for a princess
You're the one heaven sent"
Oh-oo-oh
High up in a chamber
She painted pictures of the land that made her
Oh-oo-oh
Just to remember
For the memory got lost in the dark
Oh-oo-oh
Shadowed by a clock face
The hands arrested at the time she came and
Though she showed the passing of the days
Eternally a child she would remain
Before she felt any fear
The air escaped into silence
She woke up lying in a gilded bed
With half a dozen maids around her
"We're keeping you safe
In a tall place
Where you can see
All the land you lead for us by God's decree
Hail to the girl
Our queen"
As the nights ran
Together blurring into years
Her brushstrokes never disappeared
Oh-oo-oh
High up in a chamber
She painted pictures of the land that made her
Oh-oo-oh
Just to remember
For the memory got lost in the dark
Oh-oo-oh
Shadowed by a clock face
The hands arrested at the time she came and
Though she showed the passing of the days
Eternally a child she would remain
Until one day when a clatter rang through the hills
They found her gone and a smashed-open windowsill
A feather hung in the air
And the once stopped clock
Was ticking on
wake up babe new kkb
What’s that? Wanna go back to sleep…
how'd u know the first words to come out of my mouth tomorrow morning
THIS BETTER BE ON VINYL... POLYVINYL!!
I am awake bestie
I’d rather sleep
It's nice to see them settle into this synthpop sound, blending the peppy and catchy sounds of Bonito Generation with the darker and cryptic lyrics from Time n' Place!
tbh i hope they never settle into any style. it makes each project feel fresh and they do every genre so damn well
It’s not really settling, it’s part of the civilization era, just consistency in sound
Don’t forget those noisy microtonal guitar solos 😩🙏🙏🙏
@@jdmeesey Oh fuck yeah! Whatever those are!
They can really do any genre they want and it will still sound like kkb and it will still be good
What's that in the sky? Could it be.. it's kkb!
I looked at the sky and I got a porter robinson!
how did u know 🤔
@@heepofreepsexe mine is a Jack Stauber, so I think I did something wrong

I'd like to wish all kkb fans a very good day
Same for you, my friend :)
Thank you, same to you!
Thank you. You too!
u too bro
i went back to this song after 2 months and would like to say same to you
Is this critically acclaimed Internet Pop band Icon Kero Kero Bonito?
It is! :)
yes
No this is Nirvana
for the crittically acclaimed internet pop band icon kero kero bonito, you have come to the right place my friend.
sir this is a wendys
"Well, it's a nice little song, idk if it's the be-"
0:36
"Holy shit"
Kept waiting for that to reprise, but it never did.
Legit gave me goosebumps
@@vezquex If I had a say i the matter I would have reprised it for you bro
kkb is coming to save 2021
Facts 😩😩
Hell yeah
4 a small amount of ppl who know about KKB 😺💖
hey bestie my name is also sebastian!!!!!
Such an upbeat happy melody to a song about a girl locked up for years, painting memories of her father and birds that fly by, wishing she was free as well. Only to have a dream she was free, then wake up in the same chamber. She decides the next day she was going to fly.....take it how you want...true art.
I feel like a lot of people are digging the beat (and they should) but completely ignoring the story of these songs. I personally feel like people should be free to do what they want and not be pressured into doing things their family or friends want them to do (the unfortunate reality of the world). Encourage those around you, because you might inadvertently make them feel like their trapped.
wait where was her father mentioned? also I don't think that was a dream, rather the origin of why she's in the tower
@@neongarbage6293 I think some people mis-hear the lyric "she painted pictures of the land that made her" as "she painted pictures of the man that made her" which would be where the father bit comes from.
@@Tananda7 ohhhhhh
i think the lyrics do imply she literally grew wings, thus the feathers
1:07 GUS VOCALS
Edit: He has even more throughout the song, they're just very hard to hear
Great now I want a version with just gus vocals
gus? gus who? gus johnson?
@@304z Gus Lobban is one of the founding members of Kero Kero Bonito. He produces the band's music along with Jamie Bulled, and plays drums, synthesizers, etc. He also releases music as Steve Nosurname, Augustus, and Kane West.
I wish Jamie would do vocals
@@EmilyRose1 Only If I'd Known is great. He raps on Elbows, right? Probably a handful of other Wharfwhit songs but he usually pitch shifts his voice and stuff so it's hard to tell
every time I hear the “ooh whoa whoa” my mind automatically thinks “I look just like buddy holly”
KKB is acid weezer
SAME LMAO
Thought the exact same thing lol
oisin from musicmemesfordays fame
@@noa3556 well this is creepy how do you know who i am
0:36 - 0:51 is one of the best things ever, I wish it played a bigger role in the song and hope KKB do more glitchy stuff like that in the future
You would like Porter Robinson then
@@hannibalmiles2015 I haven't really listened to much of his stuff but I've heard he's great and I don't doubt I'd love him
spoilers of porter robinson:
i really recommend him, if you like "glitchy songs" you might wanna listen to his debut album "worlds", its EDM, so it gets crazier, and try to listen to "language" is another song that sounds like it belongs to worlds. my personal favorite from there is "natural light" that song doesnt fit the album itself, but its so unique and clean sounding, it transports you into another world. 99% recommend!
(little warning: if you check his live tours, he is a fan of EPILEPTIC visuals, like really really epileptic, so if you are epileptic, be careful!)
@@dukeofcurls3183 his song musician is a lot like this one! Funny enough, the beat of the song samples kkb, like the whole beat is just vocal cuts pitched up. and its SO GOOD
Check out Track 10 by Charli XCX, it's glitch pop at its finest
i love yalls music so much. this video is awesome, i love the story and animation. keep up the amazing work :)
heyo city girl!! ur music cool too
Oh wow, it's you. I also love yours!
hi !!
You two are legends
fancy seeing u here
my whole life has been leading up to this moment
Like, literally. Lol
Kinda deranged and depressing. Please make something of your life while you have youth.
@@Moneyman-33 your entire life was leading up to this comment
So true
lmao music can inspire people to "make something" of their lives just fine, calm down
Legends say that if you listen to KKB on a sad day, your depression automatically flings itself out of the window
I can confirm this is true.
Defenes-pression
Actually, your depression sits down next to you, grabs an earbud and you both lose yourselves in the subtle magic of KKB.
but then you start reading deeper into the lyrics....
@@lotfj yes let’s look deeper into the meaning of trampoline, there must be hidden subtext
Looks incredible! Sounds fantastic! Perfect!
yes, very good.
Did not expect to see you here Mr. Select
@@fabianmac3552 Yet here I am, and here we are!
Good taste Mr Value
Preach
barely anyone is talking about the absolute phenomenal animation, i think the song is great but the video really seals the deal, fantastic work
Right?! It's kinda giving me Studio Ghibli vibes
It reminds me of The Tale of Princess Kaguya
im here for music, not pictures
Aside from flamingo and the bugsnax theme, this is the first kkb I'm hearing. This is wild, it has no right to go this hard.
listen to the song “sick beat” and “take a break”
listen to it all tbh
That animation is incredibly beautiful. Gave me Princess Kaguya vibes
yall rockin with new kkb ⁉️
yes‼️
YESSSSS
yes 🥶🥶‼️
I saw them live in Atlanta, and they are just as bubbly and silly as you would imagine. But they they perform. OH MY GOD. perfectionists and really REALLY know how to put on a good show. Sarah got the whole audience dancing. it was AMAZING.
absolutely >:D
After Daft Punk retiring, KKB shows up to tell us it's going to be okay.
:)
:)
Ahhh yes
=]
:♡
THIS IS A SUPRISE
NO IT IS NOT :D THEY ALREADY POSTED A TEASER FOR CIV II A FEW DAYS AGO ON TWITTER
@@frogfan449 MAN I SHOULD BE FOLLOWING THEM (also fellow frog fan I see)
For those interested, the video/song's theme is a variation on a Japanese folktale, The Crane Wife
Really? I was thinking Princess Kaguya...
@@joannamysluk8623 Y'know, you're probably right 😆 There's too many stories about weaving women who just want to go home but can't for some reason. Tanabata also comes to mind.
Is it Osakabehime?
@@poodychulak i think its a blend of both and other folktales
Thank you Sarah, Gus, and Jamie for sharing your art with us!!! I'm so grateful for your music ... It got me through some tough times these past few months and gave me a lot of joy. Wishing you all the best with the new record and what's to come!!!
"Her brush strokes never disappear"
was scrolling through the comments and read this perfectly as it was said in the song, creeped me out
this line literally played as I scrolled past this
🤣 just know I never planned doing that to you guys 🙈 I just liked those words allot.
add me to the list of weird coincidences i guess, happened to me as well
@@Lbozo11 🤣🤣🙈 welcome
I read the theme of this song as dealing with the crushing pressure of success and wishing for the simpler times.
0:35 I love this so much
good evening international tanoshii crew!
Let's make the world get down
and if ur blue, dont u worry, ITC is here for you, always, so long as you buy our new merch. just joking, we dont even have a mailing list
that second drop is my new favourite part of any music i have ever heard
I 100% feel this . That part is an absolute eargasm, the way all those synths blend together and hit the pleasure spot, incredible melody...
hello sarah from kero kero bonito

just to let you know that, I don't wanna do anything today
@@KimiJimiJames so ill see you later! byee!!
“And she made a wish to one day grow her own pair of wings” The Princess and the Clock 2021
“So ride the rising currents, I trust that I will see you again, when I pluck up the courage, I hope that I can join you some day” -Flyway 2018
If we think of Time ‘n’ Place as something relative to Civilisation, there’s this internal dialogue versus the story of how she tells her experiences years later, and she goes on to talk about how she was a princess (maybe locked) up in her chamber, and this album is a little more abstract in general but I think there’s more underlying themes and storylines that connect back to Time ‘n’ Place (and probably other albums). Just a theory
Kkb lore time
Civilization II is coming out on April 21 2021 with 3 songs

Well Rested
Elaborate

@@pabloemiliorui2281 Well rested will supposedly be the longest song their ever released. Check the pre-order page on polyvinyl
Well rested is their best work so far imo

Hello from Russia. I love KKB. It's much better and nicer than KGB or FSB. I love this music. Спасибо!
Lmao. Thanks for the laugh.

I've replayed this song 47 times, I'm addicted!!
[Chorus]
Oh, ooh, oh
High up in a chamber
She painted pictures of the land that made her
Oh, ooh, oh
Shadowed by a clock face
The hands arrested at the time she came and
When she peered outside
She saw the birds, so high
That she made a wish
To grow, one day, her own pair of wings
[Verse 1]
She sailed long from afar
To find herself in the world
When in the wind, she heard an island call
And so she followed it and came ashore
On a beach with a crowd
"We waited here for you"
Then a voice said it was true
"We all prayed for a princess
You're the one heaven sent"
[Chorus]
Oh, ooh, oh

Oh, ooh, oh

For the memory got lost in the dark
Oh, ooh, oh

The hands arrested at the time she came and
Though she showed the passing of the days
Eternally a child she would remain
[Verse 2]
Before she felt any fear
The air escaped into silence
She woke up lying on a gilded bed
With half a dozen maids around her
"We're keeping you safe in a tall place

[Bridge]

Eternally a child she would remain
[Outro]
Until one day when a clatter rang through the hills
They found her gone and a smashed-open windowsill
A feather hung in the air
And the once-stopped clock was ticking on
this feels like that one clockman lost media topic
ooh
fav kkb song :)
This could be a soundtrack for an indie game
I know Japanese Breakfast is doing a sound track right now for the upcoming indie game, Sable. Sounds great so far

Cause KKB makes bangers 🦡
I'm here because I was playing The Sims 4 and I Shazamed a song from the speaker which was playing alternative music
I like this song sm
Oh my, That FM synth! yes!
New kero kero song on the morning of my birthday, I swear this is the second time

This made me cry. Thank you, Sarah, Gus, and Jamie ❤️️
They haven't even added a description, they're gonna kill us with hype and suspense
See y'all in 15 hours
Edit:
IT'S BEEN 15 HOURS BUT I WASN'T PREPARED FOR S A D N E S S-
Also I love how they apparently used both 3d and 2d animation together, the mv looks so good,,,

SAME but I love your sugawara pfp
I feel like I have to say this, Sarah's lyricism has evolved into something beautiful!!!
That was a wild experience, What a stunning song. You guys came back just when the world needs your song.
Thank you for being in the same world as I'm living in. I've been saved by your songs since 2017.
GREAT!
Been a fan since Picture This!! Love watching this band evolve, every new era has something new. All the retro VGM synths are so incredibly dope
WHAT! My new fav song already? Good job, KKB! I wasn't expecting this *gem* !!
0:36 love that part
absolutely beautiful
KKB new music is gonna save us from 2021 🙏
I love her voice its so soothing and calming.
genuinely cannot stop listening to this, everything is so well produced and sarah's vocals are amazing for this sort of story-based song
Civilization II is out Today!
wasn't expecting anything less than an absolute BOP
Kero Kero Bonito is so consistent with their quality. Never let me down ^ _ ^
hi i’m mc ride from the experimental hip-hop group death grips and i approve of kero kero bonito and formally give to them the title of life grips.
Best,

Can you formally announce 100 gecs as medium grips

Whoa it's Stefan Burnett, better known as "Ride" from the Sacramento based hip-hop collective; Death Grips, signed to Third World records.

This a banger for sure
how am i supposed to wait 18 hours
you did
@@gooseart2222 yep it was worth the wait
you guys are very good
as lady gaga once said: talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before... SPLENDID! ily guys
Lady Gaga 😳🤢🤮
@@Moneyman-33 you out here at a kkb video dissing other artists? Just listen to the good vibes.
@@user-oc3ic4vc7x Grow a pair. I can and will trash on whatever artist I want, especially the ones who have been a terrible role model for women. You’re just weak, grow up.
@@Moneyman-33 not weak just vibing

Yeeaahyy beautiful story telling 🕊
OK BUT THE SCENE TRANSITIONS WHEN THINGS GO WILD AT THE START AND NEAR THE END ARE
SO FUCKING GOOD HOLY SHIT?????
man im addicted to hear this
This song, this art, everything is amazing! Good job KKB!!
A hug from Brazil.
conflicted about this song, not that it isn’t good, in fact it’s amazing and one of my favorites they’ve written and I can’t stop listening to it.
I just can’t help but feel bad for Sarah. I feel like she just wants to grow into herself and the pressures of remaining this symbol of innocence and child-like nostalgia for a big part of the fan base is really getting to her. I hope this song along with more from this upcoming release will help her sort out this dilemma.
If I’m reading too much into this and it’s just a story it’s great nonetheless
It is..
Bonitos como siempre
this was well worth the wait
Fr
Look up look up what's that in the sky?
Could it be...
It's KKB!
