July Talk - Beck + Call ft. Tanya Tagaq

[@Kaziklu]

I wish more people collaborated with Tanya Tagaq or throat singers in general. Such a unique sound

[@yooniversally]

Rob Elliott what does tanya sing on this track?

[@Kaziklu]

She is throat singing. So you hear it at the beginning... I don't know how to describe as anything other than it is the throat singing you hear through out.

[@ifabforfun]

damn I didn't even know that was a person singing lol, just thought it was a produced sound or maybe some kind of washboard or something

[@MakingtheCase]

It's Inuit throat singing, specifically. :)

[@Kaziklu]

***** well I wouldn't go that far.. it is her version of a solo form of Inuit throat singing which normally needs two people. She did just get the Order of Canada though which is nice to see.

[@nauyavidahl8825]

I am shook. I've known this song for a few years now. And I loved~ the throat singing, because I am an inuk woman. AND ONLY NOW REALIZED that a known Inuk throat singer is in this song, Tanya Tagaq! This is so cool!!

[@DanteYewToob]

Honestly, I didn’t even recognize that as a human the first few times until I got curious and looked up Tanya Tagaq because I didn’t hear anyone else on the track.. I thought maybe that was just the name of the rock band playing the instruments since they’re not normal members of July Talk. I’m definitely glad I looked her up, it’s pretty damn cool! If you have any recommendations for Inuk music that I can check out and recommend to others I’d be happy to check them out! I love learning new things and experiencing more of the world, I’m Jamaican American so I’m from two very mixed up cultures and I like it that way!

[@katytomlinson9646]

@@DanteYewToob Every song in the movie "The Grizzlies" (2018) is either by an Inuk or First Nations artist. (also a very insightful piece of media)

[@TjPhysicist]

I'm confused, i hear peters deep voice, Leah's female vocals, nothing else i thought was human, what's the throat singing?

[@james_d_eaton]

I was hoping to see her in the video. I knew her when she was in university. She has always been fierce.

[@beloliver9115]

I wish more performers could dance and sing this well! Wow

Who's making a comment about this song right now ?😅

[@DETHREAPER11]

I super love the dialogue in this song, I don't typically care about lyrics but I love how this song is two people who don't really know what they're doing or how they feel about each other, trying to communicate

[@thewolfnamedruthless63]

I wish more people knew about July talk

[@jamilymoura]

the wolf named ruthless yeah! It's devastating to love them alone

Ppl in Canada do 😅😅 or, at least in Ontario lol

[@aukora129]

@@starlette92 Yeah for some reason southern Ontario knows them super well

[@turnoffthetv]

Not enough artists truly understand the music video as artform these days. July Talk is a tremendous exception to that rule. So much raw emotion here. That hand reach/rejection really summarizes the entire song in a single image.

[@djflow94]

I agree. go watch the music video for Kings Of Leon's WALLS. Some bands still have amazing music videos.

[@fmwr1397]

Can some explain to me the meaning of this song?

[@user-ou1ko3xb9x]

Yes

[@quackmaster9235]

@@fmwr1397 I believe it relates to toxic codependency. The couple they are portraying are constantly pulling closer yet then pushing each other away. This relationship is a sexual one that has become too intimate, they are beginning to see into each other and are afraid to develop emotions beyond sexual desire because of their insecurities, but they cannot stay apart for long and always return.

[@julialapena6617]

This is a work of art.

[@samaxe1998]

lowkey screaming and making a big deal because I sincerely adored this so much. the chemistry and incredible to me and every move was interesting to watch.

[@AMarvelousLife]

Huge fan of you guys. I'm also from Canada and I hope to see you live one day! This band deserves to have worldwide recognition, even more so than it currently does.

[@awo4life621]

I feel ashamed I have been missing out on this AMAZING BAND for years and only recently discovered their music. Burning thru their back catalog and getting to watch them evolve in a matter of hours has been a fun experience. Keep up the amazing work!

[@thegooddinggleberry]

This band takes it some real weird places or weird real place. Great!

[@SeanStClair-zu7bb]

i know right

[@kaziahmed]

When she sings that part "..to feel the unknown" I get goosebumps. This song is amazing.

[@DarlikaDor]

The dance as a metaphor for the arguments and clashes of the couple in the relationship as the lyrics suggest is simply... BRILLIANT! Congrats for the coreographer and the art producers!

[@drkrueger1]

This has got to be one of my all time favorite videos on KZbin. Concept, visuals, production, song, band, lyrics, total package. Watched many times and always finding something new.

[@versationstetralogia]

So so proud of Tagaq, she slays everything now

[@lyscifer]

The way Peter and Leah look at each other on stage is so beautiful

[@luciexx72]

ikr!

[@yooniversally]

Alyssa Marie they're not together...

[@lyscifer]

random handle from a fandom ik that now :P pretty believable tho fr

[@yooniversally]

Alyssa Marie ya 😂😂

[@nx87098]

I always see them around and I'm like 99% sure they are together

[@rawxelda7849]

Words could never do this video justice. These guys are so talented, not just as musicians, but as artists. I love their music but finding out they do all their own music videos just gives me a whole new appreciation for them!

[@welllitdarkage4181]

I just found July Talk and am completely blown away. It’s like The Cardigans mixed with Rage Against the Machine and Tom Waits... it’s just great. The text, music, arrangement, style - all of it.

[@hunterschneider7889]

2:49 that synchronized jump cut is chillin. I want to see more of this in life..

[@penguinsandgrapes]

Love the throat singing! Tanya Tagaq is amazing as always!

[@Shadow-sm8hs]

One of the best songs and videos I have ever seen. Been a music lover/consumer since 1980

[@darwinortiz6394]

The two voices are so different but works so good together.

[@songbirdandthenest]

A great example of human achievement. Multiple arts coming together to create something incredible! 👏🏼

[@colefan557]

July Talk never disappoints ❤

[@MathiasDarmell-kg4qd]

The video is a masterpiece just as the song

[@borisivanovski4774]

The directing in this video, the acting, the lighting; AAA storytelling.

[@PJAvenger]

Went to July Talk and Metric in concert in London Ontario, they killed it, love this band I even bought a T-shirt haha

[@RatatwangYourPanda]

This song perfectly captures the energy of your band. Please never stop.

[@nosorab3]

The face of a young Steve Buscemi The voice of Tom Waits And a unique sound Damn, Peter Dreimanis has really put together a cool band.

Tom de Kler oh my god you're not funny. quit trying so hard.

[@tomdekler9280]

It was a comment two months ago, roughly the size of a Twitter status. Really did not try hard at all.

[@winx6302]

agreed....steve buscemi was the first thing I saw! very unique and creative.

[@mr.grimmlock2899]

Are you implying that you didn't try hard because the comment was two months old? That doesn't make sense. Go home, you're drunk. (Rephrase that sentence otherwise)

ahhhh this makes me super happy inside! although wished Tanya made an appearance in the video :p

[@aeroryan1]

I don't quite understand the abstract "art" of the dancing of their music videos but the mismatch of their voices being on such extreme ends of the spectrum and how they mix together I just find incredible

[@garryerfle5221]

Lyrics Why do you want me today? Is it because you think you're wonderful? Am I fun to play? Why do you want me today? Is it because you think you're wonderful or is it because you think you're worth less than nothing at all? At your beck and call We're not the first to fall To feel unknown Still we jump at your beck and call What do you want me to say? If you want me, I'll be waiting If you don't, it's okay Why did you come here today? Do you really think there's something more to say or do you just need saving? At your beck and call We're not the first to fall To feel unknown Still we jump at your beck and call (He loves me, she loves me not) We're not the first to fall (She loves me, she loves me not) To feel alone (He loves me, he loves me not) To feel alone (She loves me, she loves me not) To feel unwanted He loves me, he loves me not She loves me, she loves me not Blind love in dark bedrooms Find love within confusion At your beck and call (He loves me, he loves me not) We're not the first to fall (She loves me, she loves me not) To feel unknown, still we (He loves me, she loves me not) Jump at your beck and call (He loves me, he loves me not) We're not the first to fall (She loves me, she loves me not) To feel alone (He loves me, he loves me not) To feel alone (She loves me, she loves me not) To feel unwanted Yw.
