Birds of Tokyo - Anchor (Official video)

[@hastings9452]

Aussie music like this makes me proud to be Australian.

[@cicin3833]

Crowded house, Moby & Killers rolled into one.....might be just me but that's what I hear...

[@pacard33]

So true. Little River Band, 1927, Moving Pictures, Rose Tattoo, AC/DC, Icehouse, John Farnham, Daryl Braithwaite, INXS, Midnight Oil, Jet, Savage Garden, Dead Can Dance, The Church, Nick Cave, Gotye, Men and Work, Jimmy Barnes, Rick Springfield, The Bee Gees--oh, hell, you're right. These bands and artists are AMAZING. Soundtrack of my life in America...

[@scotthutchison3330]

Stickkkkky fingersssssss

[@adammaxwell5851]

So do comments like yours. 👍

[@gillianwilliams5255]

Mhm Aussie music is amazing im Australian but bout time when u posted this I moved to america with my older brother and my mom :(

[@Neonrag]

This song is not getting enough recognition for how good it is

[@tinaleonie5811]

true true

[@mamaradlowhitney25]

+Neonrag only proves that nowadays people's taste in music is getting shittier every year. what a waste!

[@isaacx6560]

Yeah I agree

[@jimmacca9549]

I agree . It a great song

[@alphasixfive1658]

agreed

[@RedKylie]

I lost my baby brother to suicide almost 16 years ago and this song truly says everything.. I thought he knew we were there for him, I thought he knew his big sister was there whenever he needed. I wish apon everything I have been through and have come through that I had more time and more chances to show him he was not alone.

[@axeman0073]

He did know you and your family was there for him and, he also knew you loved him and he loved it.....when it comes to males...his soul broke at sometime....and there is no fixing....women dont understand that..... Some men souls brake and it takes "whatever" to push them over the edge..... at the end of the day, all men are alone :(

[@winxwinsgroup1s553]

All I can say is I'm very sorry for your deep loss...your bro is pain free and dancing in Gods Garden 🙏

[@quandingulas]

🙏

[@jacquelinewillmington7763]

Sometimes we all need a anchor!

[@lukespiezia273]

So sorry for your loss. He definitely knew you were there for him. He is with angels now. Lots of love to you and your family🧡🙏

[@darcymccabe1066]

This song was played at my friends funeral in 2017 and everytime i hear it i think of him. Fly high Riley ❤

[@christine7521]

I don't know if it's just me, but the chorus makes me feel like I'm right back in the 90s. I love how this gives me a sense of nostalgia. So refreshing to hear something like this on the radio

[@lucabaracuda987]

Christine Romea Agree 100%. Need more like this.. not the mainstream crap.. THis should have half a billion views

[@mixt85]

Christine Romea I was thinking 80's synth pop.

[@shawankumar5020]

Christine Romea listen to ariel pink :)

[@venomau5speedz]

Christine Romea Nostalgia = Best :) - as for me I feel more of a current different dimension feeling from this song and a great ocean adventure. (if that makes sense)

[@frankbonavia5892]

M,

[@davina1349]

Sometimes you hear a song for the first time, you fall in love with the melody before you get the lyrics, and you know then and there, it will always be on your playlist.

[@lenniegodber7805]

Whoever came up with the concept for this video must have been smoking something very special

[@mikesalter3561]

Lennie Godber Yeah, while watching the iTunes visualiser

[@lizwilkinson7147]

Mike Salter ha ha ... visualisers never change ... reminded me of Windows Media Player

[@mikesalter3561]

***** didn't say the song wasn't awesome

[@mikesalter3561]

***** a comment about a visualiser? Songs are made for listening...chill pill coming your way

[@flop2205]

Lennie Godber smoke with ya momma

[@MadfellaDuke]

This right here is art.

[@crystalmorgan9118]

Too Wright Luke

[@lloydwilliamowen]

great song, should have been a bigger hit than what it was

[@CatWoman6]

So true... What does that say about today's music taste?

[@Caliola7]

Can't sing along to this without tears welling up.. Not sure if I'm the perpetrator or the object. Or maybe just the observer who has been in both roles.It's very beautiful.

[@emmakatenotcake]

*turns monitor brightness up x100000000000*

[@katiepicken1150]

Love this song!!? Haven't stopped playing it!! After listening to it while I was in hospital! This song represent s everything I'm going through!!!

[@Samuel-og4pg]

Best Birds Of Tokyo song by far. In my humble opinion, of course.

[@economadic2103]

one of my favourite songs, absolutely beautiful audio experience ^_^

[@casshern34]

So pure..

[@beckers1330]

The combo of synthesizer and guitar is amazing.

[@philipcosta654]

One of the best songs ever made........maybe top 5 ever in history.....

[@artursantiago8532]

If there is a top five with one song from ian, it’s definitely a Karnivool song

[@winxwinsgroup1s553]

It might be your puppy dog..it might be your family member...just love with all your heart...life is too short not to.

[@nathanwilday]

We don't say, what we should say. Very true.

[@ronmcmahon9173]

Classic song and band love this

[@musicislife1990]

This song hits you right in the feels. I love it.

[@PaulWegerich]

I heard this song. Love it.

[@mmazz30]

Still digging this song.

[@shaanpowerrangers5273]

I Want More Birds Of Tokyo

[@localsights1]

Need this right now 😔

[@ldl392]

I could listen to this song every day, and every day it would sound just as fresh as the previous day.

[@VirusInfection12GamingArena]

This song has a big Angels and Airwaves feel during the chorus. I'm enjoying it

[@joe974]

took me 4 months of painfully, occasionally hearing this song on the radio, not knowing what its called to find it. :)

[@Tokyo1985]

If you have a smart phone check out the app, SoundHound. It's pretty great.

[@deannestern8066]

Joe -_- gosh don't you hate that when you hear a song and your like holy shot this is good and you try everything to find the song name. Shit gets intense

[@isaacx6560]

Same

[@lisaclaire8169]

Samesies. I'd always tell myself I'd remember the lyrics and google it when I got out of the car and then I'd forget 😑

[@HDvids101]

Shazam

[@AnuragSenguptalyricalninja]

why this is not getting million hits *_* Absolute love to ears

[@CatWoman6]

People are deaf it seems

[@NextStopAntarctica]

I usually hear this on the radio when I'm at work. I have to stop myself from doing a dreamy dance with arms gently flailing as the music takes me away

[@timwatkins1269]

The pure beauty of life. ♡

[@carstendoig3010]

After a spell of Karnivool-ism, I am blown away yet again by Kenny's ability to turn his hand to something entirely different.

[@ItsThatMilkshake]

Carsten Doig He isnt the sole writer.

[@carstendoig3010]

No shit. But it always seems to take a pedant like you to point out the obvious.

[@Macconator2010]

ItsThatMilkshake It's not like he's putting the band down. Grow up.

[@Macconator2010]

Carsten Doig Me too man. I generally prefer Birds but I love Vool as well. He is a very talented bloke. My mates and I got to stand on the barrier for the show at the Triffid in Brisbane. Hectic as fuck! The stage presence of this guy is incredible. Only downside to the show: No epic keyboard solo in Wayside :( .

[@Tristessaable]

Carsten Doig Ahh same, just did the Vool tour for Themata then heard Anchor, the talent of that man is limitless.

[@IamtheWV17]

I'm digging the electronic vibes.... a lot of my favourite driving tracks are electronic... from the likes of Purity ring, M83, flight facilities etc etc.... good stuff.

[@slightlyleftofcentre]

WaywardVerve same! :)

[@lucabaracuda987]

Finally some Australian Radio Stations promote this song.. what a beast !!!

[@billallan6798]

I could listen to this all day....Very Calming...and what a voice!

[@pacard33]

Great chorus. It really grows on you.

[@geoffbreen2386]

gotta be one of the birds best tracks in years.

[@mercurysaffliction]

Just more proof that when it comes to Ian Kenny he continues to show his diversity and ability....how many guys could run 2 bands side by side and make it work....I tip my hat to him once again......

[@SimonHallMelbs]

Epic tune - sad , but epic........

[@Tristessaable]

Love the artistry of this video. Song is magical too.

[@j9phoenix773]

I adore this song ...it is on my high rotation list...

[@christineadkins3967]

Just the best thing ever. From and old woman of 56. I used to live in Perth. Just renews my faith in music. so much doof doof around witch is ok too but this song sais so much to me. Keep going guys you are amazing.

[@molliebug]

+Christine Adkins fuckyeah, you just keep loving music you music loving 56 yro why not, that's my plan..love what you love groove to what you grooove, theese guys rock and so do you!!!

[@Caliola7]

56 is not old x

[@sirensofsilencecharityinc.3306]

This song and it's lyrics, opens up a lot of emotions for Sirens of Silence, there are some we wish we could have saved and yet we didn't know how to connect with them. Listen to this song and never let someone slip away without feeling connected.

[@boofiecat290]

Another fantastic song by a world class band. Still cannot understand why so much overseas crap gets more recognition than this incredible Aussie talent.

[@DfzHybrid]

Finally! I found it. There are apparently a lot of anchor songs. Been tracking this down since i heard it on the radio. It's inspired a piece in a movie i would like to create one day. Very nice song, deserves more recognition.

[@sierracharlie7293]

True Talent.

[@shanemacklan2748]

Love this song, Great Aussie music

[@peterg2012]

Coooooool !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@user5871]

[@siddharthsharma3128]

I like the fact that karnivool and BOT are so different ... amazing track !!

[@angielacey9358]

Brilliant song, brilliant musicians

[@MegtheBff]

I just randomly found this and I love it.. More people should hear this.. maybe post it on some radio station forums or have so popular youtube channel do a dish on it.

[@morgancroox7837]

I'm in love with this song and this band ahhhh

[@dayleyblack8560]

Coming back to get my fix of this great music. Need this today

[@aaronshuker814]

This song has it all! Tells a story unlike 99% of the music released these days

[@morrisbrothersmusicalstore6690]

Just discovered this great song. How was this not a bigger hit?

[@murrayjekirkwood3921]

wow, Wow WOW!!!

[@sethpastrami1895]

Ayeee, I hope this song stays underground and rare.

[@gabriellecrofts9062]

I love this band and its music it is soul searching, and profound Gabby Croftsxx

[@chaddrennan5246]

One of my favorite songs, brilliant lyrics

[@Detrain27]

i love this song .. i think the lyrics spoken are somthing we have all felt before in relationships failed and thought of again later... somthing taken for granted at the time and realised later but to late .. damage done

[@wilddecan84]

One of the best music videos I've seen, proud to be a west aussie

[@synthdiablo6355]

Let's gooooo Perth babyyyy!

[@alisonrolleston4420]

[@karolinaperet2689]

[@s802487]

[@gymnasticsforever9031]

This has a big meaning and I loved how thy used different creations of faces to describe it. It looks like the effort made it dramtic. KEEP CALM AND LOVE THE NEXT STEP KEEP CALM AND LOVE GYMNASTICS

[@Kim-pp5ti]

Needed to hear this today Amazing song 🎶 makes me nostalgic for when I needed an anchor

[@Kim-pp5ti]

And some days still do..

[@Conan_The_Librarian]

When i first heard this song on the radio i though it was a 90's Duran Duran! Awesome song guys! Love it!

[@F3rgo666]

Never really listen to radio when in car but heard this on Triple M for first time yesterday and immediately thought it was Birds and what a good song ;)

[@yeniwaliatin1702]

F3rgo666 me too ... finally this song after footy last nite and just realise if who sing this song is Bird of Tokyo

[@ronsterrett7423]

Birds of Tokyo at the Sydney Opera House with the Sydney philharmonic orchestra Friday 29 .09.2023 Blood grate show thank you so much

[@TheLannaButterfly]

[@LJY08]

Yes! I've found it! I heard it on the radio on my car today and had to quickly text the lyrics to my email account. Hopefully I can download it from iTunes.

[@xBeckyx]

I used to be obsessed with song, can't believe I completely forgot about it 😣😨

[@timothystrong1]

This is Such a Magically Powerful and Truly moving son

[@tunzen1697]

To anyone who's feeling low, please don't swim alone, know that you are enough. In time you can heal & be your own anchor, but for now, know that you are worthy of love no matter what you've been through or how broken you think you are. So speak loudly & clearly to family, friends & mental health professionals. Keep reaching out until you find the love & support you need to make yourself whole again ❤.

[@-integrity-3287]

[@-integrity-3287]

[@hyphenentertainment8655]

It’s 2018 and this song still hits something deep inside me

[@alexanderfricska4317]

Great song Great band

[@anth1945]

[@EGrahamBass]

I've gotta say, coming from Karnivool to this is a strange experience to say the least. Loving it though :)

[@tidachor]

can't wait to see you guys at This That!!

[@grubbiechirp5695]

This plays on my school bell on rare occasions and I would always freak out to find the song. I have finally found it.

[@Lissa1710]

I think this song is great.... my favourite this year! Well done!

[@Theman-ug6zy]

Love this song so much... Sensual.

[@rockmelon93]

This singer has so much soul and depth to his voice it would be easy to begin to believe the answer is an anchor, what ever you say sexy man, but in reality, anchors are weighty

[@adamsmith1699]

Rock Melon he jailed for

[@StankPlanks]

Such a chill song, love it.

[@christineadkins3967]
