Future Islands performing "Through The Roses" Live on KCRW

[@markpearce5075]

Seeing these guys soon at Brixton Academy,. Am a fussy 62 year old, seen Bowie, Lou Reed, Morrissey and Gene live, hey these guys are the first band I have adored in years! they are fucking awesome and I make no bones about it, I prefer their live stuff and keep finding live vids here on youtube from their early days...yeah I'm hooked! What a frontman Sam is!

[@ravenjay1699]

Mark Pearce Couldn't agree more! Seeing them in Brixton too!

[@leightonlee4108]

You won't be disappointed

[@maximusaurelius7306]

Its their honesty! Beautiful

[@garce7184]

The PASSION of the man shows the beauty of the soul and Yes saw them twice live ..💎💎

[@danielcarrasco1540]

There is a strange, unique beauty to this band's music

[@AdrianCachia256]

This band is underrated....

[@NnxTryptamine]

u know somehow I love the songs of this awesome band so much, that I do not even want other people to listen to them, because u need to be fitted to these songs and not just decay them among other songs in some playlist, but care with ears and soul.

[@jbelmonte2003]

He Has helped me come out of my weak moments and suicidal thoughts....knowing that I am not alone in it all

[@CorneliusPRhoades]

What a song. A sort of irony I suppose that a song about loneliness and hopelessness ends with such a powerful affirmation of unity and strength. Poetic and beautiful.

[@michachlebek8542]

It amazes me how I'm always into rock music, but Future Islands are my favourite band and no one can get near them. It's art, everything.

[@Leatherface8696]

I listen to deathcore, man. That's my primary genre. But Future Islands are undeniable no matter what genre anyone prefers. They still aren't my absolute favorite band but they are A favorite. Their music makes me feel in ways I didn't know I could.

[@talkslop417]

This song perfectly sums up my near constant suicidal ideation and makes me feel less alone in my struggle to survive my own mind

[@gwcommunity7760]

Sending you love, friend x

[@stevenquinn9401]

Just found this band a few weeks. Am ADDICTED! Absolutely LOVE them!!!!!!!!

[@OldJockRadio]

Me too. Its like crack.

[@flickyt4709]

This song can save lives

[@bens5974]

a song about being a humble performer with the same struggles and pain as the audience

[@janeweseth9382]

Catch me laughing Catch me drinking past the dawn Catch me singing Catch me beaming-open armed Don't watch me weeping Don't watch me weep into my palms Don't watch me leaving, I'll be gone Kiss me mother, Kiss me father Fore I go Don't want to leave you But I'm sorry... I can't hold And you see me, through the roses Through the lights and the smoke and the screen I'm no one better I'm no better than you and I'm scared Just searching for truth It's not easy, just being human And the lights and the smoke and the screens Don't make it better I'm no stronger than you and I'm scared I don't know what to do I'm scared That I can't pull through In the weak of my soul The temptation to look inside my wrist-it grows The cut is waiting The cut is waxing in its hold The clutch of nothing The curse of wanting Takes me whole And you see me, through the roses Through the lights and the smoke and the screen I'm no one better I'm no better than you and I'm scared Just searching for truth It's not easy, just being human And the lights and the smoke and the screens Don't make it better I'm no stronger than you and I'm scared I don't know what to do I'm scared But we can pull through-together Together We can pull through

[@jewelcrosson8522]

I shed a tear every time I hear this song. So incredibly powerful.

[@flickyt4709]

It’s amazing how this song is so under rated

[@RichardJBroderick]

Most important song of the year

[@dwightwilliams5892]

Upon paying attention to the lyrics...certainly in the top ten.

[@amrellaboudy]

they are a modern classic

[@wartimemodels]

the most underappreciated act going. such quality for years now. they've received some recognition, but not nearly enough. they incorporate elements of the past, but have carved out their own unique thing.

[@charloschalvan141]

Makes me cry every time.

[@tatenaibenbusi]

Favorite of the new album. The synth player also said in an interview he likes that track best.

[@Iskimoi]

pure emotion!

[@MDZac2024]

Incredible song. Sam is just a really unique character that works and the band is muscially incredible.

[@rampface85]

Sam should be a politician. He's got the gestures that suggest I should trust him

[@JoeWild1984]

I think I would actually trust him hahaha

[@biffboffo]

He has my vote.

[@cyczanin]

He's a musitician

[@iamclydieCS]

ahh man im bursting into tears

[@m0cl0v]

Great song by a great band…

[@LatinMessiah]

goddamn im trying hard not to cry.

[@LatinMessiah]

this live performance sounds better than the studio version, imo.

[@miguelacosta5446]

you my friend are one who gets it

[@WhtMike2006]

@@LatinMessiah I agree

[@commiedan84]

I can't stop crying when I listen to this.

[@babyprincess4071]

Wow, played guitar for first time with u guys, thought I should teach myself guitar with you guys cause there is none and I know all your songs by heart

[@sairagregory6187]

Such a brave song. Really raw x

[@alainamartinez1212]

A special person showed me this song. I dont know if they were trying to tell me something or not, but i wish i wouldnt have been scared. I wish i would have told them the truth. But im happy they were in my life. If that person reads this i love you, and i thank you for this experience.

[@SethGavriel111]

Wow these guys are great I love synth bands/any bands not from the 80s that sound like they’re from the 80s! Great soulful relatable lyrics as well!

[@triciareese1389]

Beautiful.

[@garce7184]

1Word magical...

[@claireclaire1187]

Grand talent !!!! Je ne me lasse pas bisous à lui

[@Kuwandi]

Even though he's American I'm hearing welsh ...AMZING TALENT ****

[@SethGavriel111]

Miron Swyst some Americans naturally sound similar to various British accents, like John Lithgow, for example

[@sillarodriguez9895]

Hell yesss

[@christopherjones1588]

Best about 2022

[@MariaPratiwiU2]

OMG!! SAM!!

[@relaxedphylax]

when he says the screen looking into the camera

[@ОленаДроздова-з5х]

здорово

[@jackarlington612]

Howdy!

[@MariaPratiwiU2]

It's not easy, just being human

[@briananderson6742]

Anyone who likes this song, please read the lyrics. Wow.

[@jabbawonger6572]

What tosspot would down vote this!

[@patymada3134]

:)

[@lilsleeper777]

im stronger than you and im scared

[@steve60248]

I'm 'no' stronger than you..

[@KeepTheFocus]

Spectacular band that deserves a much much better mix than this awful production. The sound of the drum is hollow and the bass has no body. Let the guy go.

[@gimmedatsammich]

that's funny, I did not notice that at all. I was captivated by the entire performance. But that could have effected my perception of things that may have been lacking. Maybe it's just the venue they're performing in? Poor acoustics?

[@johntrussell7228]

These guys are so awful, like some half baked wedding cover band.

[@MG-ep5tq]

They've got it made in life compared to you

[@671boomboom]

troll gtfo

[@BarnoEire]

What a time we live in

[@wizardconnor592]

These guys are awesome

[@Denizen-Unknown]

Would love to hear your music. I'll bet it's WAY better!
