Manchester Orchestra - I've Got Friends (Live) MySpace Transmissions

Manchester Orchestra performing I've Got Friends off of Mean Everything to Nothing on MySpace Transmissions
LYRICS:
Dirt in the ground is what I need
I got another one to tell you
and another one to make you believe
pity in the grass tried to be
the one you needed when I told you
that you wanted something bigger than me
I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
and I know they don't want me to stay
I said that I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
and I know they don't want me to stay
'cause you are not alive
when I need you
I need it quickly
in case you never know
I can't play where I'm not supposed to anyway
dirt in the ground is what I see
I need another reason why
I need another reason, tell me to breathe
the dirtier the sound, the best I breathe
I tried to do it all for you
it didn't do anything for me
'cause I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
and I know they don't want me to stay
I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
and I know they don't want me to stay
and you and I will find
that when I need you
I need it quickly
in fact, you'll never know
I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
and I know they don't want me to stay
I said that I've got friends in all the right places
I know what they want
and I know they don't want me to stay.

32 now and I remember this from high school. 16 years later and I still get all crazy with it. Sweet!

[@johnhughes30]

Literally same.

[@LateNightRewrites]

Class of 08 checking in and wishing you equally zany times jamming out to this present day

[@jocelynk2116]

Just heard the album version for what feels like the first time and idk this version just hits different. Was obsessed with this video years ago. Takes me back!

[@jeffreypalmer9197]

One of my all-time favorite songs!

[@greatkingrat]

My word....that drummer. Giving it his all, I love it.

[@bobhappyman]

which one

[@patrickbarr7364]

Wonderful version of this song. And what a journey they've made since. Love this band.

[@jvtc]

That damn this is good

[@UncreativeUsername4]

the drums are soooo good. as is his beard. and just them in general.

[@BoddahKurtNirvana]

*I LOVE IT WHEN THEY BREAK FOR LIKE A SECOND AND THEN WAA-BAM!!!!!!!!!!!*

[@BoddahKurtNirvana]

1.45

[@lafan313]

This is so amazing. Just discovered this group and when I hear this song I almost want to cry for joy.

[@janx1979]

I feel this. I know that most of my family won't see this. Song to me is alcohol. I have been done wrong by so many people. And so many family members and an ex husband said "you did this to yourself". I am tired of drinking to be perfect.

[@bainco8]

Those drums sound so crisp. I love it!

[@Kjfitzdude1]

This goes for the full MySpace transmissions but Andy was like 22 writing these songs. That's truly insane.

[@victoriaboy55]

there drums are awsome dude. totally 80's

[@drummerboy231434]

that arpeggio riff is just pure greatness

[@jimbeamerziggy]

I remember when i first saw these guys when they were brand spankin new, they were opening for Say Anything and Saves the day in Tampa. They played a quick four song set off of lavlac... I can barely breathe, Wolves at night, Where have you been, and now that your home. they put the other bands to shame. Even though you could probably count the number or people who had even heard of them on one hand we still screamed out the lyrics, and the guys really seemed stoked about it haha

[@TylerPavey]

Two drummers!! sick!!!

[@judblaker6761]

still luv it in 2021. met em at 97x backyard bbq way back. or maybe it was 97x next big thing. too many concerts in my life & at 47 yrs old, im still goin. 2 concerts. tampa FL has awesum shows!!!!!!!!!

[@dustindhansen]

I get goosebumps when that guy from the 80's jumps in on the drums...

[@172superman172]

I adore Right Away, Great Captain. Andy Hull is an all-round genius :)

[@dannytomlinson4533]

Jeremiah going ape-shit on the drums! Dude wasn’t playing around!

[@Bacoprah]

wanted to ask if this is the same drummer as now

[@dannytomlinson4533]

@@Bacoprah Jeremiah Edmond is the drummer in this video. He left the band years ago. Tim Very is the current drummer.

[@clogan2214]

I fucking love manchester

[@gregfrimodig5240]

You could wake me up every day with this kickass song !!!

[@my80yearoldman]

Now these are musicians!

[@jaydi420irish]

This entire album is great!

[@gpermata]

i just discover this band recently (i know a little bit late) and im lovin it!

[@Zod984]

Andy Hull is SO talented. It really is amazing how he can switch sounds from Manchester Orchestra to Bad Books. Manchester Orchestra is purely rock where as Bad Books sounds a bit more like pop. Both bands are amazing in their own way!!

[@razorray8448]

Zod984 And dont forget about Right Away great Captain

[@deanoevo74]

This makes me miss jamming big time. Simply Awesome performance of this song!! I only hope these guys are at Gold Coast BDO next year :) Unfortunately my prayers were not answered last year.

[@stewartsa]

this is one f the best live gigs ive seen!

[@ComradeTiki]

I think I was hooked the moment I heard "You...mean...everything to nobody...but me" sung on that show.

[@libbydawg]

I just got chills.

[@thiagoaparecido1070]

Nostálgico

[@WashingtonJohnson]

MAN !! That was great!! Love your tight rythm sound. Very BIG !! OMG!!

[@DanielMartinez-dq4fu]

el baterista se pasa! demasiado !!! genial cancion!

[@KiwiCrisis]

the drummer is the hero in this band

[@HighflyXx]

I love how the drummer is playing keyboard too ^_^ pretty epic.

[@guitarinchris]

How have I not heard this til now? Groovy fucking chorus riff.

[@dimigw]

Hey Andy Hull is wearing an Cleveland Indians hat WOOT! I like them more now!

[@astromillie]

best song ever

[@IamDaveKurilla]

Love this band.

[@dannytomlinson4533]

2019?

[@StegaSteve]

yo

[@piupiuentertainment9377]

Still great.

[@mirrortoremind]

Great upload! I went back to the Transmissions page and it's no longer up. I just discovered these guys...better late than never, I suppose. This reminds me of some early Radiohead, ca. The Bends.

[@pyerric]

love them.

[@rickyinaustin]

mmm this song is so great. and i get to see it tomorow at ACL!

[@GK-ji3pm]

Great version!

[@rush1091acl]

[@Tecomoconhielo]

Fucking Brilliant! Refreshing! Not that same regurgitated music you hear on the radio!

[@Rajmors]

damn, the drummer hits hard

[@AbuseAccess]

amazing talent, check out bad books as well! lead vocals from manchester is in it.

[@Greatlakeskyle.]

Rockin that tribe hat

[@joydime]

Dale Carnegie--->"How to Win Friends and Influence People" Best self-help book ever.

[@wakeboarder2045]

I love his hat! Go Indians!

[@X5Babe]

Love this!

[@mikehowton707]

sooo Good

[@MrHnnnnnnnngh]

Epic Beard! Epic song

[@jameydog]

that was badass

[@dewolfe13]

@Brownieofthunder He most likely is running a program like Pro Tools or the like to run loops or distorsions of the keyboard riffs. If not that he he could be recording the session. Just guesses though, without seeing the monitor it too hard to be sure.

[@Havell1000]

Nice

[@SuperBaby11]

they look so oldschool. good thing too

[@Loner4ever1]

Damn this was a really good performance.

[@mkm5150]

amazing!

[@blah3189]

@Ipausestuff reminded me of airbag

[@VINCAO11M]

I hope they'll come to Belgium one day

[@ElBrujo1998]

This song help pull me out of this dark place at such a young age and it still does the job today

[@rhopen]

Great. -Ron

[@PharmaceuticalBandit]

@lespaulnasty31 He was born in 1979 so that would make him 31 years old. If you just look at him you can tell he's obviously not a teenager or even in his early 20's. : )

[@atoms12123]

@stormincrum I wish I knew, I have Paistes, but they just don't have that sound, and I love that sound (Although, I love the sound of mine too)

[@Anakin1988]

@nachosilvestre they are..... and a combo of the giant beats.

[@MrShizzlestick]

awesome song! :)

[@thecowardford]

The Holy Trinity: Andy Hull, Jesse Lacey, and Kevin Devine.

[@B0000MBITCH]

1:44 amazing

[@EliasRoussosEsque]

DUAL DRUMSET SOLO. :OOOOOOOO

[@MarinaNinas]

2018?

[@richgill5924]

Marina Ninas Watching at the same time 👍!

[@dannytomlinson4533]

Always!

[@jbobay2339aol]

i freaking love this shit

[@superstriker00]

@teuriko It adds more body to the sound. Layering is a very common technique.

[@LorenzoImperi]

wow...

[@Brownieofthunder]

Too good! But does anybody know what the MacBook is being used for?

[@deirdreXerdried]

pretty good

[@joel2ksweet]

i think i just found my new favourite band

[@draver21]

@kevjones93 He really does look like Kudi but its just their drummer Chris

[@patparillo]

@barimaphone ironicly they were on a commercial for wrestling

[@poetictragedy23]

@barimaphone I think he runs a reason set up, or something similar, It looks like more of a midi controller than a Synth

[@toolfanify]

There's something about bands these days with beards and flannel, i.e. Thrice, Brand New, these guys etc. They make the best music!

[@DaveAleks]

00:13 FLIP FLOPS! That's how much he cares.

[@balltopleft]

learned this song in 20 minutes not because its all that easy but i REALLY wanted to learn it

[@bmurray714]

@AbuseAccess all of manchester orchestra is in it. Its Kevin Devine+Man Orch.

[@Haddy26]

1:46, FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Shi3ld3r]

yea and one of'em rocks like shit =) awesome song

[@TheGrahams]

its used to send tones to the keyboard.. add in different sounds

[@alimaulia6476]

DIRT 3

[@keelan01]

agreed :)

[@justinwwwalin]

does anyone know what he does with that mac? is it hooked to the synth?

[@quiksilvermikex]

I wish I liked more of their songs. I like this one, Shake it Out, My Friend Marcus, not too many others. Virgin is alright but nothing like this, especially the emotion.

[@seanyamaha13]

that guy can "slappa da beeaass" pretty good lol

[@castro90]

Fucking badass.

[@prkycck4445]

That drummer though. He is pretty good.

[@underoath22]

chris' setup is pretty sweet..

[@xphoenixdownx]

what is that shure mic that andy is using in this?

[@rosiescastle123]

LMFAOOOOOOOO his sandals

[@Schrevs]

Fucking awesomee tune
