Grizzly Bear Two Weeks, new song live

New Grizzly Bear song "Two Weeks"

[@darunia5632]

This was when late 2000s Indie was at the peak of its powers. Been binging GB again lately.

[@michaelbowe1485]

that drummer being so locked in and also doing backup vocals.. incredible dude

[@djmaxpower5589]

I can't believe they never showed a close-up of the drummer. He's the best part of that song...

[@rodrigohernandez2261]

Soo how's your life sir after almost 13 years?

[@Meclesky07]

Fr they showed like 12 shots of the dude swirling his finger on the omnichord

[@lkctom2546]

It's really not the greatest love story lmao

[@fraundakelmbrilpondaprost90]

Glad to see lots of folks here recognizing Chris Bear's drumming. I love the contributions of all four members, but he is truly a distinctive propellant force that pulls it all together. A touch of avant-garde nuance and lots of unique, playful rhythm.

[@fftere]

Finally, the perfect voice, the recipe for nostalgia.

[@BrianJohnstonTrombone]

His voice is similar to McCartney's

[@pendragonU]

@@BrianJohnstonTrombone that's terrible, Lennon himself said his voice and Paul's sucked but Ringo couldnt lead any better and George passed focused on the fast chords. He was known to repeat that he wished they had as lead singer, get a hold of it: Smokey Robinson for their kind of songs to be where they wished and needed to bring their music to the very tops, and that if Smokey agreed they would do just the backing vocals forever. Imagine that, "Smokey Robinson & the Beatles". NO BS, and Lennon would have agreed, same as Paul. Much wiser than adding Yoko to the line up...

[@ElGordo2497]

@@pendragonU most people hate their own voices. Paul and John had amazing voices and were amazing singers.

[@alextinoco2639]

This is the best band of our modern era. No question, hands down, undisputed.

[@mikeysantellan8029]

Totally agree.

[@glitterguts_x]

This has been such a special song to me for over 7 years. I think it's safe to say Two Weeks is definitely one of my all time favorite tunes ever. It's perfection and makes my insides feel warm n fuzzy :D

[@tommyinreallife]

Sly8909 reminds me of some tunes of the Beach Boys Pet Sounds album

[@ronberry6276]

It's very emotional for me to listen to this song. Love two weeks

[@michaelgiles8639]

It reminds of my childhood and the sense of wonder and lost very beautiful soul music

[@rawanmukhtar8932]

now it’s over 10 years

[@TheFakeyCakeMaker]

I played this and my son was about 8 months and when it was finished he sighed like he was upset it was finished and I played it again and he smiled, he's 4 now and he asks me to play this most nights before he sleeps.

[@mechanicalmanb]

This song is so damn good! No guitar, great understated drumming, singers' voices fit the smoothness of the piano right, interesting movement keeps you in. One of the best songs I've heard in a while. Now tied with Blue Ridge Mountains by Fleet Foxes in my book as the two best songs out right now. And these guys did it with a live performance!

[@maiprincesse]

How have you been after those 12 years?

[@chadross]

Ah hearing you mention Blue Ridge Mountains; both these bands defined my high school years.

[@chadross]

I come back to this every now and then. I caught this on live tv when it first aired. Incredibly inspiring.

[@ericjacob8021]

I was in the audience for this song! It was even more amazing live! I can't wait for the studio version. I hope they keep it very similar sounding to this amazing live version.

[@TheHallOfTally]

It has now been over 15 years later. How did you like the studio version of the song, I have to ask.

[@nikezooms]

that’s so fucking cool

those were some sickly awesome vocal harmonies. amazing band

[@CattyLolz]

you know those songs which bring a lump to the back of your throat...this for me is one of them.

I love this performance! The lead singer's stage vibe and even his appearance reminds me of Sameer Gahdia (spelling?) from Young the Giant, which is another great indie band that's kind of like these guys. Oh, you indie heartthrobs

[@liebemicheienni]

Piano guy reminded me of the cat playing piano. Singer reminded me of the Mexican actor Chespirito.

[@bravepart]

There's a split moment at around the 2:00 mark where they are juuuuust about to start pulling the tempo, and correct themselves, as a band, in that single beat, and it's just fucking insaaaane! As a drummer, we can sometimes find our bodies naturally stop ourselves from rushing the beat, and it's just so damn pro to see the whole band do it! This is a really tricky tempo to sustain for a whole song too!

[@mtrps_]

how did u even catch that, but most probably they just align back to the in ear clicks

[@maxmitch96]

Oh wow I really couldn’t even hear it until after I listened to that section like 4 or 5 times, good catch. Did you feel like the keyboard was somewhat causing that? Not to blame him specifically, just something I noticed.

[@Nichstagram]

Man this guy has some pipes. Awesome. Great song.

[@chepitocool]

WOW his voice is amazing. They dont even have to enhance it for the videos!

[@BV10707]

this song is like a completely new genre. they basically created a new type of music with this creative ass song.

[@TheeMoonyMan]

It's called Indie Rock. They do have a unique style, but there a lot of bands who have a similar sound. Arcade Fire for instance.

[@daurpm]

Silkworth You are worse off than him if the only way you can describe Grizzly Bear and Arcade Fire is with the term "indie rock".

have you ever heard of a band called The Beach Boys?

this song sounds nothing like the beach boys?lol come on....
