If I Were Free (Live at the Lewes Stopover 2013)

[@melicruzr]

I am so profoundly in love with their music and their style, what a time to be alive.

[@bawbagbill]

They are still finding new fans. Fecking love this band.

[@matestef]

When I'm listening to Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros suddenly all this love, peace and happiness appears everywhere. Go on with opening people's hearts and minds!

[@fernandogirlan2164]

Perfect ❤️

[@joaoextrela]

finally someone agrees with me... they both have so authenticity and freedom to do whatever they want to... big spirits!

[@cedarreain965]

this music is medicinal. thank you for the healing

[@Bassulele]

i was there :D they were definitely one of the best acts

[@angelispawn]

this music takes me back to times i wasn't even born yet... Oh how i miss them :)

[@Blooznas]

I saw this in Troy Ohio and the whole show was completely amazing including this song

[@MrZigB]

ES&MZ's absolutely kick ass! Saw them in Troy,OH and they gave one of the best performances I have ever seen!

[@Floridaman75]

So much better than the album version. Actually this Live song stands alone as my top song from them. Videography is great too. Really captures the band at who they are- Awesome!

[@lucimPI]

What a great group. They make me smile :)

[@dillinghammatt50]

They remind me of The Grateful Dead. This is ,by far, the best live Edward Sharpe performance yet. They sound WAY better live compared to their recordings.

[@sarahannelewis4728]

Fantastic as always...love this band, songs of freedom, peace :0)

[@AlwaysElli]

You guys are so amazing I wish I could like this 5 billion times :)

[@7777Lisa]

This song deserves a topcomment.

[@juanmdd3348]

If I were free I would run into battles with flowers and hugs And bow at the boots of our well-oiled thugs Yes, if I were free If it were me I would yell out "I love you!" to all I passed I would disrobe and disco and rip off my mask Yes, if I were free I'd be the 'U' that crossed the 'i' to simply 'b' Minding our reflections at the bottom of the sea What did you see? I saw that you and I forever have been free The light became too heavy and I fell into a dream What did you dream? I dreamed a wind that would sweep Every castle made of sand Out across the old far holy land Oh, if this were free If this were free We'd be free of the terror of the graves And fear masquerading as the brave Oh, if this were free I woke upon a pig of red, white and blue The circus got too heavy so we fell into the zoo What did you feel? I felt the fear that every queer does in his head First thing to starting over, I made sure I was dead What did you dream? Swimming with ancients, laughing, tired of getting lost We took our left, remember, when we leaned upon the cross What did you see? I saw that you and I forever have been free The light became too heavy and we fell into a dream

[@drewconrad3934]

I think that this live version is better than the released version because of how emotionally power Alex makes the lyrics sound. This version makes me feel like it is someone protecting me because of how joyous and developed they sound in this.

[@Coosemanful]

Drew Conrad I completely agree.

[@ezpzyogi]

They are so much fun to see live!

[@thosedoeeyes]

It was amazing to be there and see these guys live. I can be in crappiest of moods, put these guys on and BAM! Happiness and love and peace fills the room (:

[@mosijon9992]

[@fromoklahomawithlove]

i was at the concert in guthrie right in front of the stage and they played this song and while he was singing i made eye contact with him and the feels that flowed through were out of this world

[@AmyAlways]

this tune reminds me of george harrison's "let it roll." sweet stuff.

[@gatogreeny]

Yes!! And also the Beatles Don’t Pass Me By for some reason

[@9thchild]

Imagine being in that crowd and not being familiar with this band. I would be utterly speechless and unable to move.

[@barijaonalovasoarakotonand1421]

this guys is really awesome!!!! and jade tooo

[@paoloaguilar8233]

Jade Castrinos and Nora Kirkpatrick so beautiful and talented

[@bawbagbill]

Fuck....Amazing band, Song and Heavenly Guitar. Wish I was there.

[@geris35]

[@DearGraceWithLove]

all this videos are getting me amped up! Just 2 more days!

[@fatimahasan6209]

Ahh love this song so much!

[@Nunyabiz3]

Dare I say I see a bit of Jim Morrison genius? :) Much love for these guys.

[@Ruaidhripadraig]

This was beautiful. This weekend.

[@thatgirlc657]

LOVE THIS SONG!!!

[@thepigslayers]

god, I love all of you

[@HOpenterscoPE]

So so so amazingly awesome

[@flammaferus2998]

His voice some kind of Bob Dylan ..... and the style of this particular song reminds of British band The Kinks from the 60s.

[@wewentolentino]

bob dylan, bob marley on his voice and the beatles on the instruments!

[@capritheus]

Fuckin Magical. This is the band that always inspires me the most.

[@pizza4anna489]

Yay.:) I was there

[@MatthewBugejaGD]

Love the little psychedelic solo.

[@elizabethvales9868]

Eu amo todas as versões dessa música mds

[@nativerain4054]

Ok, so if cloning is a real thing, then this whole band needs to be cloned. Future generations deserve this musical magic too. I just found them a few months ago and i cannot get enough. Best band ever imho. Its not about money or fame with them- its about the art & essence of music itself. Thats what sets them apart from the rest- they are unique.

[@hengsenglim2888]

very good song

[@aimeek312]

The band is called Edward Sharpe and the magnetic zeros. The singer is called Alex Ebert.

[@percyvillavicencio4351]

bellissima

[@florindocorreia2336]

GRANDE PEDRA !!!

[@AndrewPetrou1]

Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros (singer is alexander ebert)

[@JasonJacobus]

I would pay for this live DVD

[@maiajintcharadze7485]

We'd be free of the terror, of the graves

[@senaozavc246]

I am the biggest esmzeros fan ever.

[@BeauxNation]

I saw the tambourine i knew it would be a good song at that point.

[@RBfanforever]

The name of the Singer is EdwardSharpe

[@coastalflourishing]

3:07 Cutest girls I've ever seen. Yeah the one with the braces.

[@dev9619]

Awesome song tho

[@brunosantana799]

4:20 I'm flying

[@joaoextrela]

fuck... it needs more views....

[@Niconicoshizuko]

Why is Home not on their VEVO channel?!

[@elbalcon6144]

Band: Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros. Singers: Alex Ebert, Jade Castrinos. Edward Sharpe is, as himself said, "the perfect Alex Ebert", a name he invented for himself, as Clark Kent invented Superman.

[@imanipaul7835]

You can... if you believe ;D

[@TheJodilena]

[@joaoextrela]

thumbs up if you'd be the "U" to cross the "I" to simply "B"!!!

[@mrksh]

The Beatles?

[@maudesylvestre6581]

Am i the only one who remind Woodstock in this video? ;p

[@hannahwright7400]

What's the name of this band?

[@elizabethvales9868]

Do KRL!!!!

[@ferpizzaro4854]

Not Coca-Cola but VEVO

[@davidbezat99]

I could really go for a can of Coke right now for some reason.

[@hazzabananza]

"Speaking of Coca Cola..." *cue song which is completely Coca Cola unrelated* ;) He's let off the hook on the basis that he's mother fucking Alexander Ebert, bitches.

[@blingster1]

13 people must work for Coca Cola…

[@Seeeeaaaannn]

couldn't be more wrong

[@ZachTato]

Wrong

[@annagoncalez1055]

They lower my anxiety
