speechless. this makes me feel like I'm in a bad break up, but I'm okay with it.

[@poetessmaria]

Me too.

[@kelela37clch]

I am completely mesmerized by this song!I heard it first during last week's Grey's Anatomy episode and was instantly lovestruck... I thought at first the artist might be Adele or Eryka Badu and was pleasantly surprised to discover the music of Yukimi Nagano and Little Dragon. I downloaded several songs from the album hoping to find one with a similar soulful & hypnotic arrangement to no avail... I will keep searching though... I wish this song lasted longer - it is truly captivating...

[@richbrownbass]

i can't believe i'm watching this song live. a billion thank yous for posting this.

[@pureacidhell]

Little Dragon - Twice (lyrics) Twice I turn my back on you I fell flat on my face but didn't loose Tell me where would I go Tell me what led you on I'd love to know Was it the blue night Gone fragile Was it both men In wonder steady gone under Was it the light ways So frightening Was it two wills One mirror holding us dearer now...

[@CGFL64]

Everyone should seriously go and watch Lianna la Havas cover to this. Won't disappoint u

[@NeonSunset23]

no

[@andreastory800]

NeonSunset23 What are you saying " no " for, I checked Lianna cover of this song and it's AMAZING, you should really check it out.

[@OakCliffTX82]

Heard Lianne's cover... I'm a new fan of hers now. Good look

[@SuperMegaPirate]

Just checked it, and it did disappoint me. The bass guy did a good job but the girl was modulating her voice a lot which is okay for certain genres but in my honest opinion that ruined the feel of this song.

[@DShizzle2813]

+SimplyStacyE I totally agree... Lianne did a great job covering it!

[@BoxcarBomber]

Just wish the bass player would have played that tasty bass line from the record. Still pretty awesome.

[@saibrownek]

My ears are obsessed.

[@andresvasquez9879]

the emotion on her face as the video is ending you know shes feeling it so sad sweet beautiful

[@outland2442]

Why did it take me sooo long to find out about these guys! I heard them on a dubstep remix on Mad Decent Podcast. The dj's were Dirty South Joe and Flufftronix...man thank you guys for turning me on. Better late then never.

[@jazzperbeats]

woow I just was completely in trance this is soothin' like hell:D

[@jvillarreal116]

Absolutely and totally wow!

[@agisaurusrex]

im in love with this voice, with this woman, with this song, with this band! this song moves something inside me,cannot explain! ps.:srry for my english!

[@ErikWagler]

the quality of this live session is unreal. their musicianship is unmatched. when they perform live there is no loss of anything from the album, possibly even more substance. amazing.

[@SobayoSowemimoCoker]

Lovely song. The first time I heard this song I thought it was a black woman singing

[@Covers-and-Commentary]

Fire Dash The Pyro Fox guess u don't know music lol. She has so much soul in her vocals.

[@pureacidhell]

Little Dragon - Twice (lyrics) ... Thought I had an answer once But your random ways swept me along Colossal signs so I got lost With so many lovers singing soft Was it the blue night Gone fragile Was it both men In wonder steady gone under Was it the light ways So frightening Was it two wills One mirror holding us dearer now

[@macarenastegergonzalez5656]

Beautifull

[@charchochneta1]

beautiful song, i heard on the Revenge show, and i kept looking for it till i found it , i freaked out when i

[@poisoneve]

Yukimi! Waiting for you in HK!!!

[@Sunnilocs]

Heard this on Being Mary Jane and another movie called I Will Follow. It keeps piercing my soul!

[@peaceoutkelso101]

yeah i got to say this song is pretty amazing!!! its so catchy. i love it ; ]

[@degreeproductions]

@bigstereo The keyboard player is playing the pads. The piano is probably sampled.

[@StoCcCardo]

hypnotic

[@martyparty26]

HOW COULD YOU EVER POSSIBLY NOT LIKE THIS TRACK. THIS IS INCREDIBLE, DEEP, EMOTIONAL, AMAZING.

[@Malaika-wa]

This song seems so simple and is yet so powerful, it's amazing...

[@demijordan2892]

She is such a beautiful spirit

[@camilleeboni8779]

I love her voice it's very pretty....

[@camilleeboni8779]

Love you Yukimi....

[@Sam-ul4zq]

So beautiful, I like how this version has more of a flowy ending.

[@LazerMage77]

I love the extra improvised chords put in there from the piano that's not on the album version track. LOVE.

[@weareall1human]

Check out the Cinematic Orchestra, one of my favourite artists after Little Dragon. Arrival of the birds and To build a home are a good place to start. Beautiful!

[@shanevan1]

Genre Defying.... As in it has no particular genre... Personally It strikes me as either: Ambient/TripHop/lo-fi

[@qarcon]

i will find you one day take you to a little dragon concert and change your mind

[@crookedfig]

Probably one of most beautiful songs Ive ever heard back by beautiful voice.

[@CeruleanKat15]

Her voice is so unique..

[@JulianHarris-qu1fk]

You are loved. You are love. so love deeply, and continue this current of sacred waves. -from me to you- RISELIKETHESUNDO

[@carlossaroufim]

Click Like, if you saw the tears in her eyes... (man it's touching)

[@ThereseJag]

wow.. What an atmosphere this arrangement creates. Beautiful

[@guguemichaels]

6 years later and this song still moves me. Beautiful song!

[@colshythecomedian]

if i had 5 minutes left of my life, i'd play this song!

[@popsugargurl1]

Bittersweet song.

[@JUSTLISTENIST]

she makes love to the track when she sings... intense

[@Jbtank76]

Fucking 10 for that beard.....and this band kicks ass.

[@roybatty2503]

Trippy, beautiful and a little scary. Amazing song.

[@BlackMenAreDope]

Just heard this on ABCs Revenge as the end montage. Glad i was able to find it

[@carl478]

Amazing piece of music!

[@Drinks4450]

Who Are Those 21 Idiots Who Dislike This? FOOOOLS!

[@sabelv]

heartfelt.

[@KidBergMusic]

i loved this song so much i made my own song out of it. the rap version. go on soundcloud and look up kid berg - numb

[@Chazgd]

what a sick version mate, so raw and powerful, well fucking done!

[@xenosx]

Bro, I miss you and my sister.. Come back to the family :c

[@KidBergMusic]

wish i could. miss ya man.

[@ssjgotengt]

This song was perfect as is. I haven't listen to your rap mix, however, i already know it wont be as good as this.

[@austinthomas2732]

mgks was better

[@CrabbyPatty777]

Best song I've heard in a long time!

[@Outofmyhead2]

Can never hear this just twice...

[@georgearmerding]

what a beautiful song

[@pureacidhell]

Little Dragon - Twice (lyrics) Twice I turn my back on you I fell flat on my face but didn't loose Tell me where would I go Tell me what led you on I'd love to know Was it the blue night Gone fragile Was it both men In wonder steady gone under Was it the light ways So frightening Was it two wills One mirror holding us dearer now...

[@Sektion9]

As a dude i'll admit this song makes me tear up. Very deep and soulful. Very underrated group.

[@bobbowabbo5935]

Beautifully sad song, about poorly invested feelings, I think, lol

[@Alexandraisonfire]

This song still gives me shivers after six years of listening. Love.

[@982kiril]

So, these are the geniuses...

[@loverc1]

@aouhdesbois Lls. Smh silly person who for fact who knows absolutely nothing about me or who I am. Just because "I Type Like This" on the INTERNET does not mean when it comes to writing papers and essay's etc. I write like this. Smh. Silly me I not to sure why I took the time or the energy to even dignify your irrelevant comment with a response, when quite frankly it has nothing to do with this Little Dragon video. Good day to you.

[@DaveDFFA]

@PatrickScaggs Doesn't ruin the song. Just makes it more relative to the artist. I love little dragon for what they do. I love 16 bit for what they do. Dubstep and jazz/avant garde are two of many many different genres I enjoy. I always try and understand what the artist tried to do by changing the song. If I can't understand it, or even slightly grasp it, I don't enjoy the re-make, but that's not the case in 16 bit's remix. Love both versions

[@freebob3]

Gothenburg - Sweden or Nebraska?

[@juanmanueltorress]

there is no guitar part people, the dont use a guitarrist or guitar i didnt love the song at first but yukimi´s voice it´s juts amazing, i also like the lyrics,something about breakups or love fallin apart, cheater or somethin, her voice its juts great

[@Regular-Sized]

@bigstereo I was thinking that too at first but then I noticed that they showed the keyboardist playing the the string sections of the song on the lower keyboard. I guess the upper one was used for the piano part? Idk just an observation.

[@TimHoustonSB]

The whole album is brilliant. If you expected the whole thing to n=be like "Twice" you have a very limited aural palette. And expecting an artist to do what YOU think they should do is selfish and arrogant.

[@tburrus94]

Heard this on father's day this day, my father's been dead for about 6 months

[@hipnova]

Thanks for this absolutely beautiful clip. This album is very hard to find where I live and it's import only- what a shame. BTW, your link in the description is no good (too many s's). Thanks.

[@shanevan1]

Hehe indeed, but as people listen to a lot of diverse music, a genre to all musical art is fitting. And I was just helping Nuggss out with the search for more art like this. Blessings bro!

[@MarekUnt]

play D-A-D-A-... in right hand, left progression goes G-C-D-F-Bb, i guess you can figure out the exact progression and rhythm from the original song. it's essentially just Dm and BbM7.

[@chrislowe2109]

That hit the spot

[@simeonowen8230]

I'd love to hear this vocalist singing with phaeleh soundtracks

[@FinallyOffMyChest]

YES

[@slothedog]

pretty special... can really hear her accent in this version.. its sooo cute! hahaha

[@Butterfliy21]

I accidentally stumbled on this a few weeks ago and forgot what it was called, and then I saw my friend share a link on twitter I love this song!! :D

[@1957welder]

someone who wrote on this board, Yukimi's voice and words in this song makes a person go mental. DEEPLY MENTAL. Perfect words to express the feelings.

[@modifiedcontent]

@loverc1, try watching Little Dragon & PS22 Chorus "Twice"

[@NoToTheYayo]

She has the most beautiful voice.

[@HypnoticHollywood]

@MsJesusgod but you've read about him though right, MSJESUSGOD !?

[@darkymatsane1475]

this song is real

[@loverc1]

I Dont Cry For Nuthing In The World. But Everytime I Hear This Song It Brings Me To Tears. This Song Hits Me To The Heart. Its So Beautiful

[@ytcarol]

@1957welder *big smile* -- "...makes a person go deeply mental..." - oh, I get that - that's where I am right now listening to her!

[@huongski]

Heard it on Greys Anatomy. (:

[@long-shotlouie]

I adore her voice.

[@TheHoodedVillaaane]

@nikkymonoxide balls to that! arron jerome! arron jerbloodyome sire! in the words of Mister Terry of Tibbs booutiful, booutiful!

[@nikkymonoxide]

@PatrickScaggs wow one word and yes it is, its more chilling i guess you dont know what to do with that kind of music though.

[@marcobisnich]

yeee sounds like it. but its rele good. who doesent like massive attack? well some people. but not people that like this lool

[@LayBack1976]

Make ur mind drift off

[@Caeolian87]

My Ex put me on to this song... The way she continues to haunt my thoughts this song haunts my soul. It arrests my soul.

[@numnuts2009]

I can hear eryka badu, angie stone, tracy thorn in her voice yet it is still so unique, only discovered little dragon today and have spent the last 3 hours listening to this track lol that speaks volumes as to it's quality one of the best tracks i have heard for a long long time -- Timeless excellence

[@chriscream30]

Every Friday I play there songs such great music. I am hoping I can see them in concert this year.

[@PianoMaree]

Because some people wouldn't know good music even if it hit them in the face and said hello! lol

[@t7e0c3h]

its about a girl who cheats on her man twice and he keeps taking her back and shes wondering why.

[@aouhdesbois]

@loverc1 I'm sure you don't and neither did you when you were at school, if such a thing happen.

[@WindingMaster]

Wo! This iz some deep shit, insane voice & she'z also 1 sexy chic 2 so that alwayz helps haha :-p
