Kings Of Leon - Glastonbury 2008 - 06 - Knocked Up

[@azianemily]

imagine having thousands of people sing the lyrics you wrote back to you?? dear god i will never get tired of them, they are simply amazing.

[@sunshinelove10]

I get chills when everyone is singing the "whoa oh oh oh..." part. I get chills when they're live. Simply, amazing.

[@inaciofmm]

Probably their best concert ever.

[@Piggaletto]

The first time I heard this song, I'd heard like 2 or 3 songs by KOL, Use Somebody and Sex On Fire and maybe another one. This is the song that blew me away, the one I described as a "beautiful, desperate mess" and is one of the most beautiful and amazingly heart-wrenching songs I have ever heard. This performance of it literally brought tears to my eyes and sent shivers down my spine, I was in awe for ages. This really blew my mind, no one can describe what this song is to me. Amazing.

[@RachaelxSkipper19]

Fell in love with this song as soon as I heard it!

[@jennarutherford6239]

love this song so much 💕 such good memories ❤

[@beumsn]

This song is soo amazing. Especially live, I mean cmoon its soo good.

[@jasminetate7244]

This whole set and atmosphere is incredible. This one gives me goosebumps. Particularly watching Caleb and Nathan.

[@day2x87]

i so love the music these guys create! they're the kind of band that totally keeps me in awe everytime i listen to them...this one's a classic for me...i would never get tired listening to this...

[@evilmisterio]

very good song, it´s my favorite band!! KOL!"

[@trulylovelylady]

Love every song i have heard them sing and play. Fantastic group - best things to hit the charts for years!

[@amjh4lah809]

Hello. Back here on March 4th, 2021. My Birthday!!!!

[@bobolinho1]

Epic performance. My favourite Glastonbury moment ever. Full on grimey, dirty, kick ass rock and roll. Loved it, and still love it. KOL. " We like taking on this town with the Verve and good old Jay-Z."

[@1jackroo]

Lockdown saviour 🇦🇺🇬🇧hall of fame 2021 surely 👏👏

[@Colleenish1981]

Legend of a song !

[@heidibirman]

This was my highlight of Glastonbury 2008, I still proudly wear my festival band from back then and the best memory was this song. Seen the guys 3 times now....they just keep getting better. All the new 'fans' that didn't know one song from before the 'sex on fire' days need to disappear!

[@trenny2006]

Love this song

[@rafaelmorais5547]

A harmonia dessa musica é perfeita!!!!

[@hman7979]

I think I can relate...this was the first KOL song I heard and is still my favorite. Its also my number 1 most played in itunes -- 257 times lol

[@claraperry8718]

They are f...king brilliant, how can you be so good? Love them so much Xx

[@EveThomson10]

Kings of leon are one of the Best Bands Ive seen live, alongside Muse and Kasabian. It is an absoloute FACT that they are better live than on CD. Amazing band, such a talented family. Follow-we-will.

[@PhoeFireaga]

Very traditional song. Drums, Bass, Guitar, then vocals. Lovely.

[@DavyRo]

Went to see them last night 17/06/11 at Sunderland the atmosphere blew me away.These are probably the best band on the planet at this current time & they proved it last night they were fucking awesome & this tune was unbelievable having said that they didn't play a bad song all night,i've seen a lot of big bands live over the years but these are going to take some beating.

[@craiggeraghty586]

Still here in 2020

[@nferfilms]

This song was the highlight of the festival for me (with Hallelujah by Cohen). I dreamed about it for night.

[@stapesmk1]

Saw them at MEN last night (Dec 16th 2008). What an awesome show. Matt's guitar sounds beautiful on this and exactly like a pan pipe last night. Just breath taking. Incredibly musicians.

[@nadrojking5499]

16 years ago this year, you good?

[@gretacarleen]

I’ll always remember this moment!

[@robbielock]

glastonbury 2008. i was there. this is the track that got me into kings of leon. what a fucking night.

[@ePiCxDreamZ]

Can't believe they're back together :D i want their next album so badly

[@duckmanrocker]

Seen them 4 times, but would love to see them At Glastonbury.!

[@oakfangplaxy]

Thank u

[@iforwardhamish]

that was my favourite bit, we all gave them a big cheer there!

[@tonox0]

I love all their songs.

[@thepetersbaby]

Such a sick band and song, still listening in 2013!

[@seamy1464]

I'll add a comment after 7 years. Seeing them live again this summer in belfast. I can hardly contain myself here. Just saying 😌

[@megz12587]

Ahh I wish I lived in Britain, then I'd have so many chances to see them live this summer!! American fans, step up so we can see our boys on stage at home!!!!!

[@sambasef]

omg this is amaizing!!! I actually love this. Its so funny cause like Kings of Leon would never have an audience this big in the U.S.

[@FerrarifanOls95]

Can't wait to perform this at my next gig in a couple of weeks time!! Sounds a lot much better live than on the album aswell :)

[@maryabm]

Yep I agree it's much better live than on the album!!! Tne guitar sounds louder and more expressive :)

[@_GANGS_]

A Proper Live Song!

[@atmosphericjubilancy]

So so good

[@bwaaay]

Greatest night of my life!!!

[@Disharmony86]

[@Nickny21]

[@Andersonjunior-nc6jq]

Essa música salva meus dias

[@Tuskevari]

Yesssss, but calm down! I'm 39, and I was stucked into U2, but this is so good too. I've almost lost my hope, to hear good music in the XXI century...

[@nickkabbabe1953]

I adore U2; they have so many amazing songs. KOL are great too.

[@matthewdoyle1000]

LOve this band and this song. These guys are fucking awesome

[@BLCoolJ123]

OMG...when i first heard their songs i almost cryed because they were so good and no one is like them...then when i saw what they looked like i almost fainteddd (if thats even a word..lol). then i got even more happier because their all in the same family!:) OH this is not a diss or anything but i think they rock live.. i think the live version is a little bit better then the recoreded versions...because they get better and better each time! :) KOL rock! love them forever!!! :)

[@oriana8700]

Hey! Does anybody have a time machine I can borrow?

[@jaretheking]

[@bisouxxxxx]

[@RunEd51]

This was a few months before that was released. I'm sure they'll play them at Leeds

[@tommyaw123]

I was there that night. Stood about half a mile from the stage. Best night of my life. Nuff said

[@thebritgirl2]

but there will be another album after this 'long time' ; ), they're taking a well earned break, and because they dont like twiddling their thumbs, they will start recording a couple of months probably

[@hassamdaudi]

amazing performacne oc a song that makes me laugh... and makes me think.. they GENIUSES

[@Hellfire2120]

no that's what Jared does in order to test the mic he's re-testing it cuz this was the first song in the encore

[@alicebabycakes]

OMG im so hyped for hyde park

[@Goisis88]

"we like takin' on this town with Verve an' that ol' Jay-Z"

[@mimipinson1332]

bonne fete maman !

[@ZorgDK]

i usually don't care for KOL but this song is great

[@trevscribbles]

2:09 "We like takin' on the town - The Verve and ol' Jay-Z"

[@goatus514]

Haha ive been trying to figure that out for years

[@linkjmc5683]

In the studio version they say "Cause peoples getting lazy" right?

[@MAGN00]

GODS

[@WLC3991]

Does anybody remember the lyrics as “always mad an use the drum” instead of usually drunk? I could of sworn it said that I remember looking up what it meant

[@dclem8]

we like takin on the town, the verve and ol' jay-z haa nice freestyle

[@1967geraghty]

without a doubt the best festival tune ever!!!

[@nathalienieva2443]

....And we ended up having a beautiful baby ❤

[@Arilovich]

Roskilde Festival this year !

[@thebritgirl2]

because at the time Only by the night wasnt released yet lol

[@dobiastiehl]

Their stage performance reminds me of every single Oasis gig I‘ve ever been to

[@jsn2]

@ZorgDK I second that! OTOH i am in a process to become a fan as i just can´t find reasonable for a band to make such a materpiece whithout beeing a great one. Most likelly i was the one who didn´t "get it" at first.

[@paddymolloy123]

my band play this....:)

[@patali09]

oh whoa oh hooooooooo

[@tricknsk8allday]

fuck'n beautiful

[@7endertelecaster]

[@MillyCooksley]

[@melovedisney1492]

@yaashdev He goes, "We like takin' on the town, The Verve, and old Jay-Z." As far as I can tell.

[@TheJonKings]

[@jacob1006]

[@frdrcksncn]

just realized that the drummer's always chewing gum. lol

[@oakfangplaxy]

Give me my baby!!!!

[@corky29]

Oh don't get me wrong the Glasto crowd is still seriously good but the crowd Oxegen 08 were absolutely amazing!! Check out On Call from it you even can see how amazed KOL are!

[@fork12]

[@RobGore5]

[@7endertelecaster]

[@daisyortega2029]

[@18CDNSNO78]
