I guess most people discover Foals thanks to Spanish Sahara or some popular song like that, but i first heard them in 2011 and it was this song in Pro Evolution Soccer 11 (PES 11), i was about 8-9 during those times and the game soundtrack shaped my music taste very much. Of course foals is one of my favourite bands of all time, possibly top 3! Their music been with me in different times, have so many memories of myself listeting to Foals in different countries, different periods of my life. And all due to this song MIAMI that sparked my love to the band!

[@joodardoolotbek1795]

same, you know playing this game I found many extraordinary songs for me, God I want to get back to those days! I still listen to some of them nowadays ❤

[@elchingon6759]

This album came out when I was a senior in high school. I listened to it over and over for about a year! What great memories I have from the fall of 2010 and summer of 2011 because of this album. Foals forever :)

[@anak4tzec]

the first 30 seconds sounds "Olympic Airways" very good :D

[@Funny_Milkman]

Still one of the best song in the world

[@imamountainheadtoo]

so true

[@danielbear4649]

Listen I know lots of you people don't like this video. And you know what, I can't exactly describe the mood that it captured. But it did it very well, and this video is a work of art.

[@goofed86]

Daniel Bear You been on the heroin syringes pal?

[@jorgegenoves8315]

I've discovered today this band. Omg what a song !!!! The voice sounds a kind of young Robert Smith from The Cure, circa 1985. Bass lines delicious....

[@user-ob4zl5mj9p]

7 years spent to find this

[@SAYEEEF]

This is a good chill out song

[@robious8333]

almost 10 years on and still as bad ass

[@cheatmealmuscle388]

ALMOST 12 YEARS MY DUDE

[@StAsshole]

whenever I come back to this song, i feel the great energy that never gets old. a classic for sure.

[@TaRxFaCe]

I promised you open ocean glow Mother of pearl, gold, and indigo Cut through the waves, I watched you swim away I'll never love you more than today Would you be there Be there Be there for me (In Miami) Would you be there Be there Be there for me (In Miami) Now black light sets on my short day Oh, you betrayed me, you gave it away You don't mind picking up salt to rub into my wounds Would you be there Be there Be there for me (In Miami) Would you betray me Or save me Save me from you (In Miami) (Miami bad, Miami bad, Miami bad, Miami bad) (Miami bad, Miami bad, Miami bad, Miami bad) (Miami bad, Miami bad, Miami bad, Miami bad) (Miami bad, Miami bad, Miami bad, Miami bad) Would you be there Be there Be there for me (In Miami) Would you betray me Or save me Save me from you (In Miami) Would you be there Be there Be there for me (In Miami) Would you betray me Save me Save me (In Miami)

Makes me proud to be a Miami citizen

[@dierotewand3297]

jeez man you have NO idea how hard it was to find this song for me. finally here tho.

[@1superkris]

FOALS ARE SO AMAZING ONE OF THE BEST BANDS ABOUT!

[@thomas_walker]

Such a great riff.

[@bigc181]

Everyone talks about Spanish Sahara, but this is my favourite track from the album.

[@adri95]

Still love it in 2020 👂🏼🔥

[@frankieoh2679]

everytime i watch this video i can't help laughing. i don't know why

[@Linkmon99]

2:38 and on = soooo gooooood

[@insert1wittynamehere]

I like the video though, because it shows two completely different kinds of views on what "looks good", which are both on the uncommon side and at opposite ends of the spectrum.

[@hulahop23]

2020... immer noch cool 👍

[@sonergunduz098]

I finally found this song

[@niedoc34]

OMG...DETOX...😍😍😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍🥰

[@gongandfriends]

We need an HD upload!!

[@indieisgoodforyou]

this is, in fact, a very accurate portrait of what miami is like every day.

[@SilentBombr]

What a video, Foals are getting very good on their instruments

[@cs188]

Does anyone know where / if it's possible to get the instrumental version of this song?

[@buk5964]

10 years ago huh.. still want that instrumental version?

[@Jaa_morant]

10 years later,😂 instrumentals are available- just type in the search. I ve been in love with instrumental of this song since 2010 just like you guys!

[@gtmc]

YOOO it's cs188!

[@Jaa_morant]

@@gtmc probably wanted to use in a vid

[@laiklovesmusic]

I didn't expect cs188 to be in a foals music video comments

[@147green]

I think we all have to agree that this is the best song of all time.

[@Crazydave689]

Another great 420 track!

[@louisehill85]

From someone who only listens to Hip Hop most of the time - this track made me stand up and listen! Brilliant. Wish I was at Gastonbury!

[@penguyang]

i was listening this song in my younger days and now singing to remember that gold and pure days -sad story

[@sienathewayfarer]

*hits with lollipop* fierce

[@jennireidheyhey]

This is summer in a song. Beautiful.

[@PiNgPoNgLaDd10]

First Foals song I ever heard, haven't looked back since

[@mhmusick]

Foals always made such brilliant and beautiful videos that complimented their songs so well... this just isn't what I was hoping for this particular song.

[@VictorGonzalez-qi9yy]

I broke the replay button.

[@sionowe2533]

Reminded me of the gangs of new york/anchorman stand-off.

[@isisfvintage]

His voice reminds me of Robert Smith.

[@propainscottw]

I think that all the time. They sound like a lot of bands at different times. But I frequently hear Robert Smith.

[@joedruo]

let people live how they wanna live dude, regardless of what you want to see in others.

[@seeberg88]

One word: Crazy

[@comecon93]

no matter how grotesque this is, it looks oddly gorgeous and feels great.

[@Marchewowa]

Oh my, it's still such a cool song. Foals are unbelievable good. Pass the vibe baby! BIG UP!

[@prozacpeople]

this video is totally insane!

[@W0NDIN]

Best song/video ever.

[@Maracaca09]

Man, this music video aged like fine wine. This is 2022, and more than 10 years ago they predicted how USA would be in its core.

[@HotRollers7]

Olympic Airways in the beggining, a Foals song within a Foals song... Foalsception?

[@StanleyDonwood]

I love the sparse trebles, and the drumming is, as ever, sublime

[@kyleengland9155]

I think this is such a cool video. love your music.

[@daftnomad]

From what I understand of Miami, this sums it up nicely.

[@voltaEscobar24]

this is such a summer song i love it

[@EliaszPimpicki]

i cannot stop listening to this track

[@Heisenex]

that's called art my dear

[@gabrielle-rosestanley3231]

Best band I have seen live

[@hughelliott4894]

Let's have this video show up again in 2021, forgotten gem

[@milovegas1474]

Is this what Europeans think Miami is like?

[@gamandstuff1048]

No you fucking idiot.

[@chrisleary3883]

[@herecoolstuff]

[@burplec]

i love the garish high key colours

[@djmichaelowen]

yeah. love it. i loved there

[@ASunTruth]

the moral of the story is, blue cocaine is the key to peace and harmony.

[@PeteTheFuckingPirate]

You miss the simple idea of freedom: freedom isn't what YOU think other people should do, it's about what the INDIVIDUAL wants to do.

[@FrostedLlama]

The video caught my attention on a music channel, I love the song!

[@ConorrrSTEWART]

great song! foals never fail to make me smile! :D

[@sassysize9]

this song reminds me of summer for some reason...gotta love NME music! :)

[@alanbrito5239]

PES 2011 :)

[@AndryuK17]

There's something wrong, when I find for the Pes 2011 OST songs like this, sometimes, the ghost inside and others, aren't there, I don't understand why.

This has put me off going to Miami.

[@richy1993]

Detox kicking ass ;)

[@polur31]

Miami looks like a nice town. Whish I lived there

[@videosauce]

I love how surreal and powerful some of the images are here - they somehow externalize and symbolize the lyrics, emotively, in a way I rarely see in music videos. Especially the chorus from 2:30-2:35... I don't know why, but I think that bit is AWESOME. Just. The music *feels* how that scene looks. You know? It's like a study of beauty, somehow - the tangibility and physicality of it. What beauty *means* to people, and the many different forms it takes. And, um. The blond drag queen is HOT.

[@UrbanLea]

Superb track!

[@krzluc]

i cant find any word to describe it... ;*

[@deklares1]

this video makes so much sense..

[@McLarenKeith]

The Foal's videos are weirdly awesome!
