Young The Giant - Cough Syrup (Live @ Lollapalooza 2014)

[@musicforfun3762]

That guy's got such a unique voice. It's incredible. Thanks for sharing.

[@minipant1]

some Indian musicians sound like him...especially modern ones

[@flavc5434]

@@minipant1 he sounds american.

[@PaperbackDreamsMusic]

@@flavc5434 because he is. But the guy has his background in Indian classical music. And there are a lot of new age Indian indie artists that sound like him

[@rorschach3005]

I just found them during quarantine and man I have to say that I've gained more than I lost from a month of house arrest. This band is worldclass.

[@MLHMODZ]

They are badass huh

[@nemo2327]

They are definitely world class. Check out all of their albums and in the open series!

[@dannyjameson1980]

Same here, they are just so, so good. Totally unique.

[@IamXnc-]

I found Them back in 2014 - 2016, I loved this particular song because it reminds Me of My childhood. I just remembered the song years later and I got such nostalgia, I miss those times tbh.

[@kenvelickoff4275]

Check out Walk the Moon's first lp

[@colecooper5836]

searched this video because I was skeptical of the lead singers voice. glad I was wrong.

[@acpmc76]

Even when he's just talking before the song starts you can see he has a great voice.

[@jocelynbueno9023]

FUCKING SAME

[@jayfeezy9890]

Cole Cooper: Same

[@aniketrudraksha]

Cole Cooper why would you be skeptical? Cus he’s indian 🤔

[@Guitarl0s]

I encourage you to watch them perform live whenever it’s convenient for you to do! They’re a lot of fun to watch :)

[@brandeehasonetoo]

The rarity it is that a band sounds this good live! 🌹🌹🌹

[@Stella-fl2lj]

I lost my good friend Victoria who passed away from corona virus. I dedicated this song to her, so many memories. Sleep on sweet friend 😖

[@lindalibelula5901]

Singer sounds amazing live! I'm impressed. Who needs to play an instrument when you can sing like that?

[@mesumisfahany8490]

because playing instruments is fun for some people

[@closinginonclosure]

I wouldn't say he sounds amazing. But I do think he sounds better live than the recorded version. That's because they recorded this song years ago, and since have played a ton of shows, and his voice has gotten stronger because of it. He also enunciates more clearly now. It doesn't sound like he's saying "life's too short to eat a carrot whole" here. On the record, it does.

[@aloafofbeans5585]

@@closinginonclosure lol i never thought he even said that

[@benjones7634]

@@closinginonclosure geez "I wouldn't say he sounds amazing". Give me a fcking break. Dude has an incredible voice but may not be freddie mercury. Slow down on the critique.

The lead singer of Young the Giant is Sameer Gadhia. He was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and is of Indian descent. His parents are both from India, which has significantly influenced his cultural background. Sameer has spoken in interviews about how his heritage and upbringing have shaped his identity and artistic expression in the band.

[@catwhovian]

My jaw was dropped the whole time listening to this. I love this guys voice and now I appreciate the song even more

[@ahmedal-osta6877]

my mind refuses to believe this is live singing, great piece art

[@sustainfem]

They always sound great live. Watch the whole concert, it's on YT.

[@MariaEduardaSilva-oh4dq]

wow this brought me to tears... i miss concerts so much

[@bunt1691]

I've seen them live one time. Amazing

[@halligraf9131]

Me too. It's been yrs since I have been to live concert and that was Johnny Winter in KC, MO. I'm almost 63 now and my health is bad so I doubt I'll ever be able to see another one.

[@MrDunkin268]

This song is an anthem.

[@Almondbutters34]

They are so dang good live. One of those who really are meant to be heard in person

[@lipsohlips97]

He sounds exactly the same! So talented!!

[@lucasalmiron3284]

I can't believe how long I've been living without not knowing this band.. I'm literally this song

[@anaguzman5934]

I’m literally this comment.

[@feegureeetout]

Excellent voice live too. He passes the test.

[@JasonG123]

How am I only now hearing about this song in june 2017.... love/hate when this happens... time to go check out all their stuff

[@OrangeCountyProductions]

chicken pot pie not anymore but growing up he was dumbass he’s from Irvine California. His parents still live across from mine. What do you even know. You’re just a loser trying to pump us his self esteem because nothing is good or special in your life

[@cruzjacknife8699]

Charlie's truly amazing. From resounding perfomances in films like Hunger Games, to video games like Mr Krabs Overdoses on Ketamine, to the Alternative Metal music scene with The Gentle Men, and bass for Young The Giant. He really can do it all, best youtuber of all time 10/10

[@viveksingh5648]

Very few singers sound better live and most who sound good use some kind of sound effect or autotune but damn Sameer is such a great singer without all those effects.

Freddie Mercury was Indian too, like Sameer. Indians and philipinos(bruno mars) have great vocals naturally. Too bad not most of them pursue musical careers like them.

[@sustainfem]

Freddie Mercury was from Iran (Persia).

[@x3gamerchicx359]

why the singer looks annoyed in the thumbnail

[@cuqui999]

I get that's a music festival and Lollapalooza out of em all but how seriously disturbing is to see the artist high out of his mind performing like have some respect to your art people!!

[@carbonmoxylc4442]

He looks and sounds depressed.

[@zeroparchment9476]

That's what the song is about its about considering suicide

[@AK-qp8oz]

He’s hella tired, he performed a ton of songs before this and he brings the energy to each, he drains himself

[@michaelzeller4461]

I didn't know that Raj from the TBBT is in a band

[@MrCarloos95]

Why the fuck? They play so much slower live? There's no one fucking band that does that, they sound good an accurate but the tempo ruins the song for me.

[@oyboltz6407]

The singer looks sad. Can sure sing though.

[@sustainfem]

Probably tired, he looks worn out. Still a great performance!
