Fat Freddy's Drop - This Room

[@dianaanda7160]

This songs brings me one of the happiest memories of my life and everytime i hear it i can feel a tear in the corner of my eye.. it goes back to summer 2020 when i was in a forest with my ex and we took Double Vision Magic truffles and i wanted to hear music so i put the first thing that youtube recomended. ♥️

[@iamyou.2658]

At least the memory exists!

[@mateonovacic9319]

I'm livin through these moments with the girls to this days hahaha!

[@levisalanoa4498]

what a track!!

[@borbormovimientoymasalla9018]

This is the BEST VERSION of this song…

[@dylanroberts969]

Hands down

[@timoconnor1674]

By Far. Should be the main version

[@Belladonna.bewitched]

been too long since i've found a band where every track is captivating. i'm grateful for fat freddy and whatever he drops lol

[@mathewarand7638]

The name is about how they used to drop acid when they were making music in Wellington :)

[@7Hermits]

Fat Freddys drop is actually the name of a famous LSD in NZ. That's where the name comes from

[@ranieralee3288]

me too

[@martindeje9877]

What I heard, the name is a reference to one of the characters (which is called "fat freddys cat") from a 1970s comic book: The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers, written by gilbert shelton. Then, they changed "cat" for "drop" for the reason that you surely imagine ;)

[@carlosvillars]

shut up and take my money

[@MariAna-gj8se]

I sit and watch you from my window, Giving yourself away, You've been working hard all day I see the ground catch at your feet, I see the sweet signs of defeat, Like you're beaten but you feel no pain And then you turn to me instinctively, Checking if you're alone, Like a reflex from my guilty mind I fall away into the background, Like a shadow on the wall, To leave you with your peace of mind I watch from my window up high, All alone in this room, So many people go the same way, I think it's time that I changed my view Like a king in his lonely kingdom, A ruler who had no rules Ooh, Oh I got nothing left to lose, I think it is time that I changed my view Why did you choose my way? Why did you come down this lonely street? Was it to meet me? Was it to tango? Well the roots they sound so sweet Sweeter than gold, Sweeter than fame, Sweeter than honey Won't power the money Walking along this lonely street, Someone I'd like to meet, Someone I'd like to know, As a kindred soul oh so spiritual the sound ran down like waterfalls Running away never the same Changing my view of you everyday ohhh [I watch from my window up high, All alone in this room, So many people go the same way, I think it's time that I changed my views Like a king in his lonely kingdom, A ruler who had no rules, Ooh Oh I got nothing got left to lose, I think it?s time that I changed my views] (x5)

[@distillatesound9906]

This is a fantastic set of songs. Love this band, and don't have all of their albums yet.

[@titolusepas]

Otro despertar...vibra el corazon..sonidos que se expanden y las almas brotan

[@tomprestwich]

can't decide whether this or the album version is better... leaning towards the album version myself, when it builds up and then breaks into "I wanna love I don't wanna fight yeah yeah...". Just awesome.

[@doppiofritto]

Tom Prestwich this version, for me the best i’ve heard so far! Much simpler and sweet. Thanx

[@wouldiwasshookspeared4087]

This is still my favorite version, but it was the first version I heard.
