[@jonmorris9967]

I recorded Jools Holland last night as i wanted to see Jamie T. Accidentally pressed play at the start of this song. I then sat totally spellbound and open mouthed and watched a truly great front man performance. How on earth he managed to look heartbroken, crushed, and a 10 year old boy, whilst also looking like a wise yet cynical and furious man all in the space of a couple of lines is beyond me! People criticise his dancing and his facial expressions, but who cares. The most important thing in life and especially as an artist is to have commitment and passion in what you believe, and to stay true to yourself. A truly overpowering performance. He gave you everything he had and everything he believed in. I have watched this about seven times now and still not looked at the Jamie T stuff!

[@curtisdoyle7908]

Couldn't put it any better. Frustrates the hell out of me when people assume this is fake, rather than assume the man is passionate and not scared to let that passion loose. And they seem to think that they've just sprung out of the ground, rather than the actual truth - that they've been putting on shows like this for years in little clubs all over America and Europe. Kudos for awesomely summing up the performance he gave

[@sketchbook8706]

Couldn't have put it better, a mesmerising performance.

[@avinachuffinglaugh8508]

cheers for that Jon you said exactly the way I felt, and I have posted exactly the same. Ive watched it 20-30 times and showed everyone in work today, hes fresh, totally different, And his moves are freaking awesome, its because they look so shit that they are great, Its like a Bulldog is so ugly its beautiful.

[@naztubes]

[@andyirving6423]

Since i had the pleasure of watching this several months ago on me tele, I've been well and truly gripped. His stage presence makes me wanna run down to the local boozer which has a karaoke on albeit on a cold and rainy night and just blast out some phenomenal shapes and not give a flying fuck what people think just like this wonderful man. Not only that he absurdly pulls them off and creates a whirlwind of emotions that entice the audience whether they like the band or not. Only the best artists can do that.

[@andyirving6423]

Great minds think alike, good sir!

the most fascinating frontman performance i've seen in a long time

[@catyork6070]

Wow, I just discovered this song in the past few days as it's used in a TV commercial here in the UK currently and I was blown away by it so today I saw the commercial again, quickly grabbed a pen and wrote down what lyrics I could and then Googled them to see who the hell this band was! So, now I'm HUGELY thrilled to have found out who they, and their lead singer (with such a fantastic voice!) is and I'm over the moon! I noticed a comment from someone to one of their videos that they did this song on Letterman, so I just watched that video too (and am watching this right after that one) and for the first time saw them perform it and I'm even more blown away!! I think Sam Herring is genius - the lyrics to Seasons (Waiting on You) are profound, moving, and his performance on Letterman was captivating - freaky dancing (like a drunk dad having spasms dancing at a wedding!), passion and that growl! He reminded me a bit of Meatloaf who was also theatrical and blessed with an incredible voice and energy in his performances. Anyhoo, so now I'm hooked on Future Islands and want everything they've done and I'd love to see them live!!

Such simple and purely addictive melodies, perfect sugary 80's synth and wacky, way-out Ian Curtis antics. Awesome blend of Joy Division, New Order, Tears for Fears and OMD ... with a little bit of James Brown growling thrown in for good measure. Jeezus, I love these guys!!!!!

Great performance from an artist who puts it across the way he feels right, all those people disliking this obviously haven't got a clue what they're talking about.

Me and mum were cackling with laughter at his moves, fishing for dance moves, best laugh all year. And then that demon voice when he decides to sing. This is the hi light of my year. We were in tears so thank you future islands..😂😂😂😂😂thank you! Best dancing ever

+Skateboarding Panda Word for word your comment matches mine. Really made my ny eve. Everyone was in stitches with his devil roar 😂😂

+BON3SHAK3R I know right! It just was the icing on the cake!😂😂

[@simonrhys]

This guy is quite clearly a dad! Fantastic energy!

[@68blues]

In these days of manufactured, no personality, posturing boy bands, truly magnetic performances are like hens teeth. The character in this guys performance utterly shone!!!!! Not only that, the song is superb as well. Along with myself, how many people were searching KZbin on New Year's Day for another helping of these guys?

[@warefairsoda]

Thank you for showing me where i'm at!

[@68blues]

@@warefairsoda…..✌🏻Cool!

[@Navigante001]

This is one of the most charismatic things I’ve ever seen.

[@XYfalc0n]

keep coming back. the music is great ....but the hypnotic energy from the frontman. Wow ! Fearlessly giving it, owning it... and then some. Damned fantastic.

[@kh.adeebahmed2528]

This is the drunk guy from every club dance floor nobody thought would have a great voice like this.

[@BON3SHAK3R]

The performance of this song was hilarious and jaw dropping. Absolutely brilliant and made my New Years Eve memorable. So many in work were talking about it. Very touching and a grand display of highly charged emotional madness and despair. Not bad from a man who looks like a Russell Crowe and Stephen Graham crossbreed 😃

[@alexmorales9874]

Thinking, I came back to this song every 6 months; I can't explain why.

[@MacBegbie]

These guys were all out bonkers brilliant on last night's hootenanny

[@jasonyard9979]

First time I've clapped eyes on these musicians and I was memorised. What a great performance. This was both musically and visually astonishingly weird. But where's the fun in being normal anyway... Refreshing to see music and dance (I think it was dance) come together in one bazar mash of artistic pleasure

[@soJAKEable]

Hi Dad... Thanks for influencing my music taste :)

[@limpethead]
