Kings of Leon - Knocked Up (live @ Pinkpop 2011)

[@frankcramo4414]

I was 14 when I first heard this song in the basement of my best friends house. I got my girlfriend pregnant and my life was in shambles. We had decided to keep the baby and I worked my ass off in between school and any other free time I had. My girlfriend was getting her stylist licence and we had so much loving support from both our families.... Around the 12 week point she had miscarried and truthfully..... I didn't know weather to be happy or sad ... All I know is it made me the person I am today. My wife has a salon of her own and i manage a warehouse . Together we just get by, but the love we have for one another is a direct result of a scared 14 yo who thought my life was over and faced the reality of the situation. Today we have two beautiful girls in which I would do anything for...... Every time I hear this song I think of that July night in my friends basement listening to a song which was echoing my life .....

Very touching story, but also very amazing. I’m very happy life worked out amazing for you all. 2 lovely girls and a wife who has been with you since you were young. Could not ask for anything better. I wish you much fortune, luck and happiness.

[@frederique215]

how is it possible that they only film the people that don't sing along? I was there, and I literally screamed my heart out. I couldn't talk for one week.. :) it was awesome. great that they also played a fair number of old songs

[@raidedori3052]

Vocês não fazem ideia do quanto gosto de ouvir essa música bebendo.

[@elshof93]

Not all the people know the songs you know. I was there too, and I didnt knew this song. But I fell in love with it right away.

[@louisetipton9821]

Love the intro to this song 💜

[@vildtlam]

0:47 - that guitar!

[@krisdeissinger8439]

Brings back memories...

[@Kultbert]

how can people NOT sing along?? i will never understand. i always yell my soul out!

[@McBirdec]

I like this version because he says "I don't care if y'all don't care" instead of "you don't care" at 5:36

[@prijzengeld]

People, please, stop whining about how a crowd should be. These people paid money to see this band, first prove you did. And you don't have to prove that, because whats the point? Why do you waste your time commenting on a KZbin video about how much a crowd sucks or not. Go to a Kings of Leon concert instead. Just saying this once, because even I'm spending my good times on this, when I can listen to a great song. But I just had to say.

[@prijzengeld]

I totally agree with hijlaa. Caleb called it 'one of the best moments of his whole life', Nathan and Jared were very positive on Twitter, and 'I Dont Care If Yall Dont Care' is a line of the original song.

[@daisyrodriguez2427]

God i effin LOVE this song!!! I want to see them live soooo bad!!! I would freaking die!!!! Watching this gives me goose bumps!! :D

[@cozinhaemedita71]

Brasil likes rock n roll the quality!!!!!!!!

[@mandonoura5938]

Não sei se esta ai ainda,mas 3 anos depois e o Brasil ainda esta aqui ouvindo rock de qualidade haha

[@rutkeuning]

@hijlaa If you listen closely on a good stereo system, you can hear him sing the "I don't care if you don't care" on the album version too

[@ruffdog55]

@Cynthia23crush must of been a great experience. im not sure if i would ever want to go to a festival...seems like soo much energy just to wait for a show and have a good view of the band. Yea concerts in US are sweet, place where i go its an indoor/outdoor concert arena. secturity guards will let anything go on its nuts.

[@mariadelcarmenrodriguez8846]

no es que no quieran cantar, es tan excelente este tema que no queres perder detalle

[@TheMrJAMESxx]

love this!

[@ruffdog55]

@Cynthia23crush wow kings of leon and foo fighters in the same weekend. now that is a great festival, pinkpop had to of been a great time for you. i guess festivals are good cause if it werent for the roskilde festival in 08 that i watched on palladia HD i would have never of known of kings. them performing knocked up got me on the bandwagon, search it.

[@OllsHale]

'I don't care, I don't care if you don't care' is original, but he definitely says it with purpose in this performance

[@leudalima7031]

wanderfull

[@Roy-jy6vp]

Leuda Lima Wanderfull? wtf

[@prijzengeld]

@hijlaa You're the one with the brains!

[@jelleturk]

@Kultbert we (i was there too) just listens to music! ;))

[@ruffdog55]

@Kultbert SAME!

[@eduardoalfonsorodriguezvaz8639]

Maybe that's why he sings "i dont care if you ALL don´t care" at 5:37

[@ruffdog55]

@Cynthia23crush I only said that because of the emphasis of the yall because of how quiet the crowd is. in the states we go nuts to this song

[@karmla1984]

thx but ay reed now when is the concert??

[@DuvalDawg]

The original lyrics is "I don't care if you don't care" so I think he did get a little pissed that no one was singing along. When they performed at the O2 in London, the crowd was much better since it was their concert.

[@ruffdog55]

@mustangfever1 Nope never been, I live in the states. Yea I know not everyone is coming to see them. but i watched them at Coachella, he didnt have any remarks like that towards the fans. It was just kind of shocking for him to actually say it they way he did. And yea i saw the Sex on Fire video, incredible

[@intermezzono1]

@Kultbert Kings of Leon never interact with the fans. They ask how everyone is feeling, but that is it. They just play their songs... If a crowd doesn't feel the connection to a band, especially at a festival, and is just not in the mood to sing along, or just has no idea what to sing, it's not the crowds fault in the first place... The crowd is having a good time though, they are moving and having a blast. That's what counts...

[@intermezzono1]

@VonJordan22 The crowd response is the most important thing for a band.

[@mustangfever1]

@ruffdog55 never been to pinkpop i think??? it's a big outdoor concert not everybody is coming to see KOL, so not everybody knows the lyrics. and if you listen and watch "sex on fire" he tells that this is the best time he ever had watch and listen at 9.02 minute

[@hijlaa]

I doubt it was directed at the crowd. This is one of their best songs and all of the crowd waving in synch is beautiful. Besides, if they did complain about the crowd being a little lackluster, it's their own fault because they don't really interact. But doubt that's the case. Both Nathan and Jared said on Twitter that they loved it and thought the crowd was good

[@hijlaa]

@mackemMatty1 The crowd wasn't bad It was the same crowd for Foo Fighters the next day and that was great. It's not always the crowd's fault you know.

[@ruffdog55]

@prijzengeld yea i know....i've already been told if you read the comments.

[@prijzengeld]

@ruffdog55 It's not towards the crowd man.. everybody was listening and enjoying. How can you go wild on this song? It's a slow song, so we just all stood there and listened. I was in front and I was just enjoying the great music. This was one of the best songs they've played, and I think many people of Pinkpop agreed. But I didn't want to have my fucked up voice to sing, when Caleb is singing awesome!

[@dshocko88]

The thing about Kings of Leon is half the fans never knew they where a band before sex on fire or use somebody came out. I wouldn't blame them for complaining about the crowd because they dont know most of the songs they perform

[@Blubberblase007]

@Niesha18C Chris Coleman :) nice guy!

[@kolfan4life]

This song is fucking epic.

[@TheGil1946]

cool la basse

[@TheSander94]

@Kultbert So do I :)

[@Addicted2OILau]

@hijlaa Yeah Well I went to a concert in Sydney and for the whole concert they never spoke a word to us , except for singing the songs. there was no encouragement or funny stories or anything, except toward the end , Caleb asked everyone to get off their ass , and so they did and everyone got into it alot more. I think KOL should learn from a band like MB20 or Coldplay about how to "play" to a crow cause theyrve got great hits.!

[@prijzengeld]

And, as a second, I shouldn't even comment on this. Why should you listen to these people you don't know who got nothing else to do then hate on crowds that their favourite band has. Why am I even commenting about that you shouldn't do it. Darn it!

[@OzBooger]

@serjtorsol its the same speed as normal...

[@CapitalMen]

1:15

[@intermezzono1]

@jelleturk But there is a part where the crowd has to sing. You can't go to a festival with just listening to music. That is not correct. Yes yes.

[@karmla1984]

wer is that concert in witch city?????????

[@tomkrijgsman]

Matija Mlakar its the Pinkpop festival @ landgraaf in Limburg ( south end tip of Holland)

It's a festival. There are not only Kings of Leon fans. I bet half of these people don't even know this song. That's just a festival. Deal with it.

[@Voalaat]

I fucking did that! This is THE goose bump song from KOL

[@MisterMusic93]

i dont care, i dont care, if you all dont care!!

[@Grasmaker1]

Because it's a festival, I think most of the people think they are a good band but only heard Pyro and Sex on Fire and that stuff. So they're like: "Pretty cool band, lets take a look".

[@hijlaa]

@Addicted2OILau Yeah I always feel they could be more succesful than they already are. Not just their hits but being a great live performer makes people want go to a show. They SOUND great, but that's it. The other headliners at Pinkpop (Foo Fighters and Pinkpop) are perfect examples. Sound great live, have good, sometimes mediocre songs, but they also perform and get the crowd going. Same with when they went to Reading. Angry because the crowd was awful. Well, they didn't get encouraged.....

[@hijlaa]

Then don't go to a festival, is my advice. And the other two headliners were Coldplay and Foo Fighters and they cared, so did the crowd.

[@MrKeukenvork]

@mackemMatty1 At the bloody beatroats and deadmau5 the crowd went totally insane, so that aint true

[@2009ASGJPJ]

hard to hold the beat if the crowd claps that outa time...

[@runertje550]

Kinda 8 years late, but its also the sound going back and forth and the mic picking it up, it all takes time. Thats why they all also have earphones in to hear what theyre playing

[@ruffdog55]

Anyone else feel like that yall dont care was towards the fans?

[@serjtorsol]

why is this version so slow? It doesn't sound as good. Prolly Caleb saving his voice (which is the most amazing voice in the world)

[@dussikkeyvar12]

just frustrated you were'nt there...

[@Anhaa0]

best dance song ever!! all 4 looking pretty pissed off and bored..what a lame crowd..oh wait, of course: it's pinkpop! they shouldn't be there anyway. I don't care, if you'all don't care! lol nice

[@dussikkeyvar12]

Landgraaf....deep south of Holland

[@serjtorsol]

I should't care for you response due to the lack of content. Did you check? I'll teach you how: 1- download a audio editor (there are many which are free) 2- Record a sample of this version and another from the album version. 3- Filter out the high bitches so that the drum is strongest. 4- Visually compare the period between boith versions and make you own conslusion. 5- Feel like an asshole.

[@owhatitiis10]

0:51 that lady has no rythm

[@DuvalDawg]

6:09 That girl on the right looks miserable!

[@frankcramo4414]

Too bad KOL couldn't stop getting fucked up drinking..they had so much to give this world.

[@g0freddyg0]

This crowd really sucks at clapping.

[@Truckdrivernorge]

what?? hahaha
