I'm living away from home for the first time. I just found out that my grandma had a stroke, and it's just my Mom taking care of her. I wish I could be there right now to be with them. I always listen to this song when I get really tired from life, and pretend that she's singing this to me. I wish I had a big sister like her to watch my back. When my Dad was in prison, I listened to this all the time. "Our father in exile for God only knows how many years." I always thought of him. This whole song makes me think of my family, especially the part about "the dirty policeman who ruffed you up." I can't help but think about the footage of my Dad getting arrested. Or that time a policeman pulled us over, and yelled at my Dad when his car window wasn't working. And I can't help but think of my actual sister who wasn't around while any of this was happening. I'm just so tired right now...
Once in a concert at Mexico city, i was dancing so hard, while I was standing right in the middle of the crow (so I could listen the complete stereo experience), jus a few meters In front of her. I was the tallest guy, so she looked at me with her powerful look, and smiled me four times.
I feel this!!! I wasn’t the tallest person but I was right in front of her w my hands up and singing along totally being in the moment and we made eye contact and it was just beautiful when she smiled
need a vinyl pressed of all her acoustic tracks, I enjoy them as much if not more than the studio versions. Speaks to the voice and songwriting qualities I think.
I am constantly floored by the idea that I and only 2,051 - as of this writing - have seen this video despite the fact that she is so good. It's similar to St. Vincent's other videos. Pure blinding shame, really. St Vincent is so good, I wish for more people to see it and discover what music is capable of.
St. Vincent was born Annie Erin Clark in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Her parents divorced when she was three years old; Clark's mom is a social worker and administrator and her stepfather works in corporate tax administration. Music was Annie's principal obsession from an early age. She told The Guardian: "I was a 10-year-old fan of Pearl Jam and Nirvana, and I would've got into a fist fight defending them. Art mattered" LyRicS Oh, little one, I know you've been tired for a long, long time And oh, little one, I ain't been around for a little while But when you see me, wave Oh, little one, your Hemingway jawline looks just like his Our father in exile For God only knows how many years But when you see him, wave Through double pane I'll be with you, lost boys Sneaking out where the shivers won't find you Oh, little one, I'd tell you good news that I don't believe If it would help you sleep Strange mercy If I ever meet the dirty policeman who roughed you up No, I, I don't know what If I ever meet the dirty policeman who roughed you up I'll be with you, lost boys Sneaking out where the shivers won't find you Writer/s: Anne Clark
I mean it's all about her vocal performance, but I do wish the guitar was a little louder. The artistry of her performance when she plays and sings on the classical is so intimate & MAJESTIC. that's my favorite St. Vincent. I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO HAVE SEEN IT TO POTENTIALLY OR AT LEAST THINK ABOUT LEARNING THESE HERE CHORDS CAMERA MAN PULL OUT PAN DOWN DAMN.
for God's sake get a clean audio, at least with out the coughing. I agree show her hands, they drip music over the guitar, also lose the harmonica, or record seperately so it can live in the background

The Lives Of The Wild Ones life is messy and we all get tired. Dont lose hope.
Hang on hun ♡ Isn't it amazing how music can speak to our souls & also bring out memories we didn't even know we have? ♡
Hello. I hope you're doing better know

Wow, what a hidden gem of a performance. Love this.
need a vinyl pressed of all her acoustic tracks, I enjoy them as much if not more than the studio versions. Speaks to the voice and songwriting qualities I think.
I love the melodica in this, this is my favorite version of the song.

Ahhhhhh, So there’s Johnny!
it's not a harmonica. it's a melodica. don't criticize something if you don't even know what you're talking about.

Oh, little one, I know you've been tired for a long, long time
And oh, little one, I ain't been around for a little while
But when you see me, wave
Oh, little one, your Hemingway jawline looks just like his
Our father in exile
For God only knows how many years
But when you see him, wave
Through double pane
I'll be with you, lost boys
Sneaking out where the shivers won't find you
Oh, little one, I'd tell you good news that I don't believe
If it would help you sleep
Strange mercy
If I ever meet the dirty policeman who roughed you up
No, I, I don't know what
If I ever meet the dirty policeman who roughed you up
I'll be with you, lost boys
Sneaking out where the shivers won't find you

Waiting patiently for the accordion apocalypse.
She, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she, she.
I wish I had the honor of introducing her as my lady.
2024?!
She's cute plus super talented I first got a record from her cause she looked like an exgirlfriend
Define "talent"
Casey Sheahan abnormal
Lmao
was like dude stop coughing!
“If I ever meet that dirty police man who roughed up, I don’t know what.”
annie clark is a goddess
que invejinha da Cara Delevingne...

I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO HAVE SEEN IT TO POTENTIALLY OR AT LEAST THINK ABOUT LEARNING THESE HERE CHORDS CAMERA MAN PULL OUT PAN DOWN DAMN.
Can we all shut up about good she looks (or doesn't look) and just talk about the music?
Melodica, amigo.
Chabunga ams so happy to hear this.
So why Chabunga cry?
...Wouldn't we all.
Все в поводке до сих пор у Ани
My cat always starts meowing at the accordion part...
Going through the St Vincent videos and seeing nothing but good reviews about Annie
Tell the "nervously coughing man" to get the hell out of the room with this singer.
They all left the room a long time ago. This is a RUclips video
@@shaunatherton8328 lol i love u
Was this filmed at Women and Women First in Portland?
Joni channels Byork
she sounds like joni mitchell here
way to film this without the guitar in the frame....???? wtf.
Why would the guitar need to be in frame?
Kentadoodle -_-
lol what? I'm actually kind of curious.
some people like watching her play lol aka me.
Oh. Alrighty.
Marry me
And I'd be happy with just cuddling, nothing else.
That coughing guy legit ruined this video.
it makes it better in a way imo. sometimes knowing someone is there with me is better than not knowing at all
what is it? and thanks in advance!:)
Andrew Bird is American.
how does she make that weird sound with her guitar
Chords? The ones online dont seem to match up
so how do i compete with juan alderete for her? he clearly wants her.
OMG! I'm glad I'm not your best friend lol. But really, I get it.
nice camera eh?
what chords is she using?
Mariam Bendeliani too many to name and all while she's singing. she must have to practice like 24 hours a day.
roaming annie
Can't see the present her.
she makes me want to write better songs
Someone thought a harmonica would be a good idea.
can that coughing guy go somewhere else
Dosnt this version make the album version just suck?
no
for God's sake get a clean audio, at least with out the coughing. I agree show her hands, they drip music over the guitar, also lose the harmonica, or record seperately so it can live in the background
The album version of this song is beautiful, but I don't like this at all really. St Vincent is really hit and miss for me
what ever it is.. it sucks
Marry me
no
