Love It so much

holy shit guys, dont listen to the new one. cmon, jens....

Rerecording unfortunately cannot hold a candle to this, sad

Best version

I came across Jens Lekman when my friend and I was at a frankly boring dinner party out on the town, where we were sent outside because we were being disruptive. We were 12, wondered further than we were allowed, and found a record shop and this was playing. Next week I went back with the money I had saved up and bought the album this track was on. Life was really hard but this was one of tge songs that got me through it

The first time I heard this song I stopped what I was doing and just started dancing. Swedish public radio, must havr been 2002-3. I freaking live this somg. ❤

So glad I found this. I was going crazy thinking, "Wasn't there a Jens Lekman song that sampled The Left Banke? Why can't I find it on Spotify?"

I thought I had wildly misremembered the song when I heard the re-recorded version. This version is always going to be more meaningful to me.

Another classic I discovered from Indie Pop Rocks. Thanks, Elise!

This takes me back 🌞

What happened to this version? A new one is on Spotify but I don’t like it nearly as much!

I feel like going home, but, at the same time, I don't.

My cousin Matt sent me this song in an email that I never remembered to open and read. We used to give each other recommendations but I started to slip on listening to the ones he sent me. He died suddenly last week and I'm hearing this for the first time and I'm not sure what it means, but I feel strange, disturbed, and okay all at the same time. Matthew Growhowski 1969 - 2022 RIP.

The first time I heard this was on an iPod in 2005 at an aimless time in my life. I was waiting for a train in an underground L.A. Metro station, unemployed, and trying to gain some footing in the city. So I *FELT* this song. I became a fan of Jens from that point forward.

one of the great songs. new, re-recorded version is great, but nothing will top this.

DVS - dudes, dudes, dudes

I want High Tone songs please

I want Higher Pitched please

Bästa!

Not meant to say a misoginist...... I can't remember what I was going to say...ahwell fuck off

Just turn the music loud and keep your mouth shut ☠️ Not a mioginous but just want to listen to this song

Love this band 💙! This song so beautiful... I ain't the biggest Beatles fan... but of course love ❤️... But reminds me of "Here Comes the Sun" Love both.. but I got my Combat Boots" on... more Black Cab

Aside from being excellent musically, this song is true to experience. I remember occasions when I was rolling home late in a cab drunk from parties where I had behaved badly, usually because I was in love with a woman there who wasn't in love with me. This song raises all the memories and emotions from those times.

Possibly the Best Song Ever Made.

Such an incredible song. Full of the most palpable apathy and yet life too. Beautiful.

So fricking Good tune mannen

Anjing ketemu, gw cari2 di spotify... gw sampe mikir apa gw yg salah klo ini lagunya jens lekman 🤦‍♂️

또왓다

Did you play at the san Diego fair in maybe 2006??

One of my favs. Thanks 👍😌

taking a cab and listening to this in wind feels like roadtrip travelling, makes me miss Sweden and the carefree cold wandering days&nights

Oh no, God damn I missed the last train I killed the party again God damn, God damn I want to sleep in my bed I want to clean up my head Don't want to look this dead Don't want to feel this dread I killed the party again I ruined it for my friends "Well, you're so silent, Jens" Well, maybe I am, maybe I am Now at the central station No time for being patient I feel like going home But at the same time, I don't Black Cab And I've heard all those stories About the black cabs and the way they drive That if you take a ride with them You might not come back alive They might be psycho killers But tonight I really don't care So I say turn up the music Take me home or take me anywhere Black cab You don't know anything So don't ask me questions You don't know anything So don't ask me any questions You don't know anything So don't ask me questions Just turn the music up And keep your mouth shut Black cab

Why isn't this on spotify premium? Disappointing. An old gem!

What is black cab mean in this song?

Why the fuck this song is not on Spotify

Anyone remember the video of James Franco painting to this?

oh no, god damn i missed the last tram my punctured bicycle in the rain i killed the party again oh no i want to sleep in my bed i want to clean up my head don't wanna look this dead don't wanna feel this dread i killed the party again i ruined it for my lovers "well, you're so silent, segi" well maybe i am, maybe i am now i am the central station no time for being patient i feel like going home but at the same time, i don't <3 kinda revised the first part of this wonderful song by wonderful dear jens, sorry! the official lyrics are posted by someone in this section! <3 i am turning 21 so yes ahahh this was my remix, a tiny one ahah but hurts the reputation and deceives people (don't be deceived by it!) <3 ​

Why is this not on Spotify. So upsetting to find it's not there

Anyone else notice the similarity to Brown Eyed Girl?

jens lekman lyric a day "jens lekman - black cab 29/11/2018 "And I've heard all those stories About the black cabs and the way they drive That if you take a ride with them You might not come back alive They might be psycho killers But tonight I really don't care So I say turn up the music Take me home or take me anywhere" this always reminded me of the grand anthem by the smiths - "there is a light that never goes out" i bet jens loves smiths and moz's solo work !
