alt-J - 3WW (Live on KEXP)

[@jwest88]

"I just want to love you in my own language" to me is one of the most beautiful lines from a song in recent memory. I recently discovered alt-J but there are 4 or so songs I really like.

[@gosaithingbaijam3076]

How you're thinking my thoughts.

[@ekrem_yildiz]

Imagine love a person has another mother tongue. That makes sense :)

[@mattman5783]

My brother played this version on the morning of my father's funeral.Always takes me back to that horrible sunny August morning.Music is power

[@thecluelesstravellers3490]

Shit bro I can’t imagine how that felt…. I hope you remember it as a fond memory and every time hear this song I will remember your comment, you, your bro and your father… peace bro

[@mattman5783]

​@@thecluelesstravellers3490Thank you my friend ❤

[@elsvaughn7959]

I'm so sorry. My fiancé just passed and I can't stop listening to music that kills me bc of to what it relates. I hope ur doing well.

[@mattman5783]

Oh I'm so sorry lovely.I hope you're doing ok.Its just one day at a time isn't it 💔 x

[@chrisdurie3651]

Man, I love the drummer Thom Green... he is top !

[@barbb8570]

The more they play this song live, the better they get! This is their best live performance of this song yet. Leaps and bounds from some live sets they did when the song first came out

[@psbzu]

I do love how these guys leave so much space for breathing withing their music, very inspiring imo. Thank you KEXP for spreading the Bliss.

[@sharpener1324]

psbzu apart from bloodflood 😂 hard to cover that one (for me at least, maybe i just have small lungs or somethin')

[@ayellowbeard]

Was feeling pretty bummed out today and then on the way home Alt-J was playing live on KEXP Drive Time and I saw my first bumblebee of spring and I felt like a little hope. I just had to listen to 3WW once I got home.

[@marianamawaofficial]

I love them. This band is so original.

[@xaldinnix9410]

There was a wayward lad stepped out one morning. The ground to be his bed, the sky his awning. That's so fun sing, the more I listen to this song the more I love it.

[@brendonwyllier8056]

3WW - alt-j (lyrics) There was a wayward lad Stepped out one morning The ground to be his bed The sky his awning Neon, neon, neon A blue neon lamp in a midnight country field Can't surround so you lean on, lean on So much your heart's become fond of this Oh, these three worn words Oh, let me whisper like the rubbing hands Of tourists in Verona I just want to love you in my own language Well, that smell of sex Good like burning wood The wayward lad laid claim To two thirsty girls from Hornsea Who left a note when morning came Girls from the pool say Hi (hi) The road erodes at five feet per year Along England's east coastline Was this your first time? Love is just a button we pressed Last night by the campfire Oh, these three worn words Oh, that we whisper like the rubbing hands Of tourists in Verona I just want to love you in my own language

[@DCGMatthew1]

You actually got a lot of the lyrics wrong The actual lyrics: There was a wayward lad Stepped out one morning The ground to be his bed The sky his awning Neon, neon, neon A blue neon lamp in a midnight country field Cows surround so you lean on, lean on So much your hugs become hold ons Oh, these three worn words Oh, that we whisper Like the rubbing hands Of tourists in Verona I just want to love you in my own language Well, that smell of sex Good like burning wood The wayward lad lay claim To two thirsty girls from Hornsea Who left a note when dawn came "Girls from the pool say 'Hi' (hi) The road erodes at five feet per year Along England's east coastline Was this your first time? Love is just a button we pressed Last night by the camp fire." Oh, these three worn words Oh, that we whisper Like the rubbing hands Of tourists in Verona I just want to love you in my own language

Never noticed Joe's fire flower tattoo (from mario games) before! You can see it on his left arm at about 1:23

[@ReneMontiel]

Although the new album is not as good as the previous two, I absolutely love this band. They're not the greatest at translating their studio sound to a live setting, but they pretty much nailed it with this one 🔺

[@PooptyPoptyPip]

Um manifesto para toda uma vida. -Vou começar a escrever o meu livro,e a principio,ele servirá apenas como o meu guia de vida,para que depois possa servir de auto-ajuda ao público que o ler. Ele será divido em pequenas notas antes de ser escrito e consolidado em livro,para que assim os pontos sejam melhores desenvolvidos. Estas notas são algumas frases baseadas em argumentos que não precisam da experiência para serem entendidos,de modo que seja útil a todos os interessados. São como colocações apriori daquilo que devemos procurar para viver. Elas darão ênfase e propriedade ao sistema criativo em que o livro será apresentado,de forma inteligente e desenvolvendo todos os objetivos propostos. Sendo marcado para que o leitor mude completamente a sua visão estratégica e seja influenciado a viver à procura de novas perspectivas. #1 A faculdade de entender aquilo que deve determinar o seu grau de geniliadade : -O que deve ser feito. -Para onde vai;o seu determinado fim. -Qual é o parâmetro;suas causas e consequências. -O entendimento do dever-ser,sendo que não pode existir conflitos entre o que propõem a solução e aquele que determina a ação. -A confiança nos próprios desejos e qual deve ser o fim se eles forem seguidos como a melhor proposta para o entendimento individual. -À quem se compartilha viver assim,e o que se propõem,de modo que esse seja um relacionamento entre dois parceiros que se entendem e que são cumplices do mesmo estilo de vida. #2 O dever da colocação objetiva : -Os estados da fé individual que caracterizam o desenvolvimento da ação objetiva,sendo que esta conta com o principio da programação da consciência. -O principio da resposta prontamente objetiva que se da pela busca do entendimento moral. -A analise rápida de um ambiente seguido das circunstâncias e da forma em que determinamos novas estratégias. -O conhecimento de todos os sentidos e como preserva-los. -O desvalor junto a falsa influência e os seus riscos para a faculdade do entender que desenvolvem desvios mentais. -Uma breve síntese do simbolismo que há na genialidade e o que caracteriza sua essência e a sua inteligência. #3 As vontades da alma num grau de elevação da consciência,do mais simples ao mais complexo : -Os pré-requisitos para existir em uma sociedade tão evoluída,sendo que a ordem de existir deve ser programada pelo próprio talento individual. -O valor que imprime um novo conceito e uma nova adaptação da vida,sendo este o mais importante dos requisito a ser aceito pelo indivíduo. -O acesso ao tempo de forma ordenada e minuciosa,de um a 24 mil,cada segundo sendo determinado pela razão que advém de Deus. #4 O universo individual e a sua importância para o desenvolvimento do amor próprio,do ser e da influéncia : -A complexidade que gera a verdadeira influência e os riscos que determinam uma falsa liberdade. -Os hábitos repetitivos diários,suas mentiras que advém de um sentido covarde que caracteriza a destruição. -A falta de si mesmo,tanto no sentido moral como no sentido interpessoal. -As falhas e as perdas que impedem a busca do indivíduo gerando assim as contradições no plano em que ele vive. -O medo que explica a falta de valor e os desvios mentais.

Qué temazooooo

[@nocre2948]

wheres that performance with the girl? did they delete that video?

[@vincenthelbourg9631]

note the concentration of the drummer ! not easy coordination and independance....

[@whatdothlife4660]

It's a very basic rhythm.

[@vincenthelbourg9631]

oh no so basic i think. I'm a beginner percusionnist and it's typically those exercices that make me sweat :)...

[@jonasc1221]

@What Doth Life; The snare pattern is definitely not "very basic". It's a pretty special rythm.

[@chinmayravindran286]

Bruh, do you even syncopate

[@SUPERNOVASpodcast]

He is serving as a metronome for a very suttle song. Thats not that easy. Notice how his hands moves before each beat. Strong concentration is involved.

The Septic Piløt three worn words

[@klarkcent1956]

Still no idea what this song is about, just feels like a load of lines put together

[@ewellynpatriota1163]

A música '3WW', interpretada pela banda britânica Alt-J, é uma composição rica em simbolismo e metáforas, explorando temas de amor, natureza e comunicação humana. A letra começa com a imagem de um 'rapaz desgarrado' que se aventura ao ar livre, onde o céu serve de abrigo e a terra de cama, sugerindo uma conexão profunda com a natureza e uma busca por liberdade. O refrão 'Oh, these three worn words' (Oh, essas três palavras desgastadas) sugere uma crítica à trivialização do 'eu te amo', frequentemente repetido até perder o significado. A referência aos 'turistas em Verona' evoca a cidade de Romeu e Julieta, simbolizando o amor idealizado e muitas vezes superficial. A banda expressa o desejo de amar em sua 'própria linguagem', indicando uma busca por autenticidade e profundidade emocional que transcenda clichês amorosos. A música também aborda a sexualidade de forma crua e direta, como visto na estrofe que menciona o 'cheiro de sexo' e as 'duas garotas sedentas'. Alt-J utiliza essas imagens para discutir a natureza efêmera e às vezes superficial das relações humanas, contrastando com o desejo de uma conexão mais significativa e duradoura, expressa no desejo de comunicar amor de uma maneira única e pessoal.
