[@Stan3013]

I said, yeah, alright, I kept my hands in my back, yes, I'm alive. I said, yeah, alright, I comb my hair with a knife, yes, I'm alive. I said, yeah, alright, I never run from a fight, yes, I'm alive. I said, yeah, alright, I comb my hair with a knife, yes, I'm alive. LOVE THAT PART -w-

[@Gratius99]

Same it was amazing. Wish that part was in the main song.

[@craig_choka]

Ooh-whoo-ooh-ooh, ooh whoo-ooh-ooh, ooh whoo-ooh-ooh

[@tomdinardi1621]

Yeah-yeah, yay-yay-yeah, alright: I kept my hands to my back, yes I'm alive Said-said yeah, alright: I comb my hair with a knife, yes I'm alive We'll say yeah, alright: I never run from a fight, yes I'm alive I said yeah, alright: I comb my hair with a knife, yes I'm alive Sorry, my OCD needed to get the exact wording. 🙃😬❤

[@fulanocubano]

I could listen to this on loop for who knows how long. This song resonates with me. The lyrics, the beat, his voice...it just makes me feel.

[@ninethetwotailedfox]

nostalgic?

[@Lisa-Leipness]

Just now discovered this one .. (i'm a fast one)

[@Lisa-Leipness]

So did ya? ;)

[@laurapoller6828]

i think i prefer the acoustic version.... it sounds amazing

[@MrBlack-pu5tv]

I agree they are amazing acoustic!

[@rafaelstoffels3631]

yepp!!

[@cristinae3384]

❤ watching from 2023 this version will always be my favorite.

[@geofflegeoff6795]

The song and the lyrics are fucking meaningful and beautiful

[@jerrycorrea5974]

Geoff le Geoff, I prefer the lyrical content of Pumped Up Kicks.

[@WV_Mudpuppy]

I need a whole acoustic album.. their NPR Tiny Desk Concert has been on my daily play list since 2012 lol

[@katiekelly7103]

this is magic

[@michaeljordan1135]

If this is magic then we can play "got your nose!" together and I will blow your mind.

[@yaizalopez6383]

michael jordan what no fuck off

[@eduardocunhadecarvalho4778]

Mark keeping the title of human kazoo as always

[@Kittycatlurver25]

This gives the song a whole different vibe. It's like a completely different song altogether. Not many muscian's are capable of changing audience's perspectives of their music through slimmed down versions. This proves just how amazing mark is. I'm so glad he's getting all this recognition. Gives me hope for our dim witted generation.. GOOD MUSIC

[@IgnitionZigggy]

I love how he has such a different unique voice! Such talent!:) Love this song

[@kuronokei7821]

They should've released an acoustic version of their debut album.

[@Bluecerealbowl]

Mark's Voice...... *Chills*

[@AlienDevito]

So different voice, but like it and soooooo much.

[@ishensarabia5619]

Yeah,alright, I've never run from a fight Yes I'm alive

[@tomdinardi1621]

OMG, I know a studio version with the extra verse wouldn't top this version, but I want it.

[@rahabumugeta6022]

love Foster the People

[@aceboyz]

2019, this is still freaking gold. Mark Simms is a genius 💙

[@garis7392]

Karisa Wolf I feel this

[@nomadyesmadxx7650]

2020

[@leiea2000]

2024: still GOLD ✨✨✨

[@Ajfrisch96]

Went on a date last night and we talked about Torches and how we both love this song so as I'm walking her home I played this and it was oddly and beautifully romantic

[@SeungGyuPark]

Sometimes life it takes you by the hair Pulls you down Before you know it, it's gone and you're dead again I've been in places and I won't pretend Yeah I'd make it out just to fall on my head Wake up strange and take the walk downstairs Hit the pawn up on the corner and pay for my rent You know that I could not believe my own truth Just show them what I choose, got nothing to lose Yeah yeah and it's O.K. I tie my hands up to a chair so I don't fall that way Yeah yeah and I'm alright I took a sip of something poison but I'll hold on tight You know those days when you want to just choose To not get out of bed, you're lost in your head again You play the game but you kind of cut 'Cause you're coming down hard and your joints are all stuck I've tried to say that it's not the only way I never knew if I could face myself to change You were pacing, I was insecure Slip and fall, I'm dodging calls, hug the prison I've been living in Yeah yeah and it's O.K. I tie my hands up to a chair so I don't fall that way Yeah yeah and I'm alright I took a sip of something poison but I'll hold on tight Yeah yeah and it's O.K. I tie my hands up to a chair so I don't fall that way Yeah yeah and I'm alright I took a sip of something poison Took a sip of something poison, poison Yeah yeah and it's O.K. I tie my hands up to a chair so I don't fall that way Yeah yeah and I'm alright I took a sip of something poison but I'll hold on tight Yeah yeah and it's O.K. I tie my hands up to a chair so I don't fall that way Yeah yeah and I'm alright I took a sip of something poison Took a sip of something poison, poison

[@pimpc1125]

I've listened/watched this video so many times, I'm actually sad when he doesn't sing the extra bit at the end in the studio version.

[@tiffjuliettttttt]

2017 omg I adore this version

[@carlosvicente1907]

I love foster the people

[@trevorladouceur5495]

he should sing in a deeper voice more often

[@Loveftp315]

I really love those lyrics he added on. They sound perfect.

[@TheOffcenterType]

Near the end, the lyrics he added, are so dark, amazing, and matches with the happy tone. It describes Foster The People and i love them for that :)

[@hyo1395]

[@buzzslogs]

A lot of music taste could be found here on this song and it's a relaxing song as well. FosterThePeople was quite a talented band that I listen since I'm 20.

[@daisydaisy0121]

It is UNREAL how there’s still no acoustic album. I was mindblown 9 yrs ago when I heard these renditions. Couldn’t get enough & put them on a cd. C’mon Mark, 😭

[@Christinaaa39]

[@melissasalcedo5218]

Why do they have to be so perfect all of them!!! I am in love with every song they do!!! I am a proud fosterer and will always be one!!! GO FOSTERERS!!!!!

[@Mstar82]

I love their acoustic stuff and how marks voice is so diverse but this song is even better with marks high voice like in the recorded version, cos it makes it more like... freaked out and surreal which makes adds a lot to this song and makes it very unique but never the less i so love the added lyrics

[@Beatlelover7]

Omg, i love his voice in this lower octive!!! His such amazing voice range!!

[@felipelima4548]

I removed my like just to like again. A underrated version of a awesome song! I'm glad to be in a concert of Foster cause this band have a really good vibe.

[@runningmoonb]

[@FinalFlash724]

Both live and in the video, I love how his voice sounds great high and low.

[@viintage90]

[@madcow957]

[@2009iago]

The last part is just... amazing! Give me a good feeling.

[@CallMeCaity]

This makes me happy in ways I can't explain

[@tellmenow20]

Love it! And I noticed the way he sounds here, much lower in pitch than the voice on the official video or concerts where he has a high pitch.

[@williamhermann6635]

Its amazing how this rendition gives the song a completely different tone and vibe. Wow.

[@90schick1]

I love finding acoustic versions of their songs...so different but awesome!

[@mimiextasyus5]

Am I the only one who had goosebumps while listening to this? This is simply beautiful and depth of Mark's voice only made it even better. I know everybody wrote this,but I have to say it again: they just HAVE TO release acoustic album,it would be perfect!

[@kaatyblue]

I love those extra lyrics so much.

[@jadianbryan8677]

[@Rohde84]

The acoustic gives the song a different feel to it but in a good way. Gives it more a deeper and darker feeling to it. Shows how good of an artist Mark Foster really is.
