This version of this song brims with so much life from both its conductors that I am completely floored every time I play this video. This ephemeral moment has been lodged in my heart, even as nothing but an observer, for many years - and I expect it will remain there for many years to come. Though its creators may grow and change in so many amazing ways, and though the artists themselves may understandably have a much different connection to this song, I will forever appreciate the passion and the emotion that happened to be captured at this point in time. I first heard this song in its album version, in high school, the year it came out. This is the song that made me want to take guitar seriously, because out of all the sensational music I'd heard up to that point, this was the first band that instilled an understanding of what "music" means which I carry to this day: music can be a landscape, a place to feel and to experience in ways that a purely rational reality cannot yield; an experiential layer of reality which we cannot fully describe, because it is purely the reality of experience, and of feeling. This is the song that started me on the path toward understanding music as being a part of our reality that connects to the archetypal fabric of ourselves, and that perspective has shaped so much of my reality. Though you will hopefully never read it, to Jenn and Andy, thank you so much for allowing yourselves to express and to feel, then and today; not just Wye Oak, but over the years adding on Joyero and Flock of Dimes have, together, been 3 of my favorite music projects for the last 10 years. It's not about TV shows or specific sets, it's about the deep connection between feeling and rhythm that you, as artists, have both done so much to incarnate. Thank you so much for expressing yourselves in such a way that I could hear you, and creating art that I could bring within myself not just to create on my own, but to heal. Thank you for helping me understand music in a different (honest; passionate; experiential) way. I am so excited to see what you both create from here - and if I never get to see it, all the more honest. Tl;dr Wye Oak recreated music for me and no amount of talent or skill can replace the emotional impact they've had on me
I only ever buy people's music if they deserve it, and Wye Oak has definitely deserved it. Good work you two. Wish you could come to Australia, Perth specifically......
`letter` I am nothin' without pretend I know my thoughts Can't live with them I am nothin' without a man I know my faults, but I can't hide them I still keep my baby teeth In the bedside table with my jewelry You still sleep in the bed with me My jewelry and my baby teeth I don't need another friend When most of them I can barely keep up with Them perfectly able to hold my own hand But I still can't kiss my own neck I wanted to give you everything But I still stand in awe of superficial things I wanted to love you like my mother's, mother's, mother's did Civilian
Watching Jen introduce this song always kills me, knowing how much they both grew to resent playing it. I cannot imagine how frustrating it would be to have people compartmentalize, to oversimplify, to reduce your art into one song played during a short sequence on a television show. The Walking Dead didn’t turn me onto Wye Oak, Andy and Jen did.
Fucking fantastic, what a great song. Amazing how sometimes a show, or movie is just made for a certain song, or vice versa. Ive listened to a few of her songs but this one is by far the best. Walking dead!
The candle tattoo, was a fake sharpie drawing I think from the AV Club performance where they did Danzig's "Mother".... I just watched it a few minutes ago and they drew it on her arm as a tribute to Danzig....
I like Walking Dead too but a song as good as this deserves to be talked about on its own youtube page. Especially the top two comments. She looks like a bad ass when the guitar builds up...
Guitarra alucinante, sería un placer cantar junto a vos, mujer , viajaria para ello,,, soy hijo de un Gran Compositor, Cantautor y Artista (Ricardo "Tito" Gomez) y me importa un carajo lo que diga el mundo . Algo herede y estaré orgulloso de brindarlo al mismo.... Solo por Amor a la buena música !!!!! saludos
I play this song and try the impossible, understand the singers interpretation. What is your interpretation? I think mine is skewed by the fact my culture we do keep our childrens baby teeth and maybe that's a metaphor or maybe I like this song so much I'm over thinking it! Perhaps I'm missing certain references? Or does the fact that I heard this song on a Walking Dead episode for the first time, makes me feel like its a song of just hoping of some type of normality/helpless situation !?!?!? see?? Just glad we all like this tune! :)
The baby teeth are like her relationship. She’s still holding on to her relationship even though she knows it’s over, just like how she’s holding on to her baby teeth even though they represent childhood innocence that she has lost.
Normal version. Epic.
Live version. Epic.
This song. Epic.
Epic??? LEGENDARY*
My favourite song of all the emotional songs in the walking dead.
same here
U forget about "Oats in the water" Ben Howard's
That sense of rythm is unbelievable.
absolutely
youre right

Shane seeing that lone walker in the field. SO FUCKING HAUNTING. I miss this show back then!! 😔 it makes me sad with no Rick or Carl now

@@teota4173 if you haven't seen by now...well...
@@thegood9 well no I haven't seen it I'm on the sixth season...
@@teota4173 not a big spoiler, but it's a symbolic moment

when she closes her eyes she puts so emotion into the song :)
I've started to learn guitar 2 years ago because mainly of her... she's my master, my Yoda!!
Have you kept it up?
@@sdavey0 yes/no... it's complicated! lol!
I just keep on coming back here for some soul healing ♥️ Shout out from South Africa to the world 🙋🏾♂️
My favorite version the Wye Oak, congratulations!

representing Shane. He was also alone among the living
This sounds so different from the recorded version. Especially her voice.

I still keep my baby teeth
In the bedside table with my jewelry
you still sleep in the bed with me
my jewelry and my baby teeth
Love those lyrics
Nicolas Vasquez

so authentic
I wanna cry when i m listenin this song
I just saw the episode this is from last week. I love this song. Now i'm going to learn how to play it and record a live cover of it.
`letter`
I am nothin' without pretend I know my thoughts
Can't live with them
I am nothin' without a man
I know my faults, but I can't hide them
I still keep my baby teeth
In the bedside table with my jewelry
You still sleep in the bed with me
My jewelry and my baby teeth
I don't need another friend
When most of them I can barely keep up with
Them perfectly able to hold my own hand
But I still can't kiss my own neck
I wanted to give you everything
But I still stand in awe of superficial things
I wanted to love you like my mother's, mother's, mother's did
Civilian

Yes, yes, true....and the lone walker on the field... nostalgic
holy holy is great
The Walking Dead, end of Season 2 E10
Delisin. Bunu söylememelisin. Akıllara zarar, deliyim. Mükemmel bir şey bu.
I love the way she played this song!! Can someone do a tutorial of this?
0:34 it starts.
Beautiful, sad, moving.
Yes:)
That guitar tho
i want it
I think i found her, i will call her La luz de mi vida
I like Walking Dead too but a song as good as this deserves to be talked about on its own youtube page. Especially the top two comments. She looks like a bad ass when the guitar builds up...
Real talent here
very cool
Encantadores.
Specially staring at that lone walker at the field,isolated and lost..a very tragic character, the walker and Shane.
18 Miles Out
the applause could've been better, but the song and filming is spectacular :)
breaks in her voice explains even more than this excellent song
this album is $5 on Amazon now!
Anyone know why I can't find the whole video on the NPR page? I looked through the list twice :(
sick voice.
essa música é muito boa
Muito mesmo!
this is like that show nip tuck , I think they came out with an artist like this
ulen şarkıya aşık oldum vucud bulsada evlensek sarkıyla notasını yedıgımını
gürkan +1+1+1 😃
THE WALKING DEAD AMAZING
Future islands new album brought me here after I did some research
