Perfume Genius - Full Performance (Live on KEXP)

[@danablack7919]

Just discovered PERFUM GENIUS a few days ago and I'm blown away. Very unique, very passionate, very awesome.

[@lucioaceves5249]

Same! Except i just discovered them now 2020. I'm blown!!!!

[@cocteautwinscocteautwins523]

You are a lucky guy, he is really a genius.

[@riekeschulze2675]

Well, it's end of 2021 and I don't understand where Perfum Genius was hiding. But I'm obsessed now and here to stay...

[@bellahatescats]

KEXP always pulls in the greatest artists.

[@Martel4]

It's so dark and abrasive. I love it.

[@SuperGuguto]

I love Cheryl Waters so much... She leads all KEXP shows so good. Definitely the best among other KEXP hosts... I wanna meet her if there is any way :D

[@ryboul]

NO FAMILY IS SAFE WHEN I SASHAY

[@Garaday1]

ze fuk does sashay means?

[@violetxoxox]

+Jose Angel It's a highly-exaggerated, strutting, confident way of walking, where the hips and shoulders are swung in a more extreme way than is natural or normal. Models sashay during fashion shows; if you've seen the movie Zoolander, the title character sashays in an even more over-the-top way as part of the parody of the modeling world. Drag queens typically sashay.

[@Garaday1]

violetxoxox thanks you :)

[@ivanrlynn]

SASHAY ALL DAY

[@GargeBarge]

Goddamn, his voice is so unique! That’s amazing, I thought it was an effect until recently.

[@lucesoussigne3585]

I saw perfume genius 2 years ago on a french TV show and he was so shy ! ... and so good that I bought the first record immediately !!!!!!! THAT GUY IS GONNA BE A STAR IN A VERY NEXT FUTURE

[@72twist]

"I wanted it to be filthy and weird..." this dude is just fucking brilliant.

[@MickeyYahoo]

The combination of this comment with the "My body is so great" above is almost provocative.

[@Turtl289]

I just bought too bright. I gotta listen to it still. But im pumped.

[@mcchickenmcdicken]

Saw him when he played "Grid" and "My Body" live for the first time. It was unreal.

[@bfnaqi1172]

This is so beautiful. Thank you to The society for introducing me to this magical voice.

[@trevorjohnson7290]

KEXP has been on a roll lately.

[@lucioaceves5249]

2020 and I just discovered Perfume Genius last night and I cannot get enough of his genius! I'm blown!!!!

[@lucioaceves5249]

And I know I'm going to be listening to this for a long time. I'm on a different realm now. Pure genius!!!

[@goatsandmonkeys33]

He's such a captivating performer! Very similar to Joanna Newsom in the sense that he seems to be pulling the words out from deep within...like they're a corporeal thing that's reluctant to leave. And when they do it registers in his face and mouth in a strange and very interesting way. So intense.

[@youngcansuela8327]

Actually a great comparison. Some musicians seem to physically give themselves over to the performance, and he does. Really would like to see Perfume Genius.

[@kangfesher]

Lovely and well said.

[@laurenanderson571]

[@jamessimmons8657]

I was introduced to Perfume Genius via The Jimmy Kimmel Show about a week ago and was struck by the lead singer's animal magnetism! It really got to me and I've been pursuing everything on KZbin about them! It's strange to become so intensely drawn into their performances! I feel that it was fate that pulled me into this awareness that someone could be so singularly self-possessed as this artist! I love them and can't wait to see what they might do next!

[@ivansherfield6234]

Rae Anne Henwood d

[@imOverWhere]

One of my favourite albums of the year

[@diegovillalobos5364]

Perfume Genius! You are an awesome human being! We are following you!!!

[@ScowlingBat]

I wish I knew someone like this guy in my real life.

[@hendrabp8234]

Me too:(

[@lucila5466]

Fuck do I know the feeling

[@arthur78]

Exactly.

[@4everinamood]

My pure & unadulterated ❤️ for Perfume Genius brought me here 👍🏾

[@michaelbackhouse]

Queen is my favourite song of those performed here. Simple chords, yet something ethereal and original is going on here.

[@hendrabp8234]

Perfume genius is soooooo genius!

[@BalletRosesOfficial]

My Body is so great!!

[@jrichey10]

pic to prove it?

[@BalletRosesOfficial]

Jake Richey The song, you fool. But I suppose my own body is great too. Self confidence, YEAH!

[@jrichey10]

hahahahaha i was just kidding jeeze! This song is so great!!!

[@petercalafiura7574]

Refreshing to see an artist take a chance and compose music with real feelings and genuine emotions. He will be a household name in 2025 but we are lucky to see him in 2015. It's just like seeing the New Yardbirds before they morphed into Led Zeppelin.

[@SEVELINFUL]

Heartfelt, real and raw. Amazing. Saw them in West Hollywood at the Roxy, and was blown away.

[@n1ck1216]

Hood and All along got me choked up. Ugh so good perfume genius

[@ElFamosoArt]

Got this on vinyl! Great album

[@kaiasworld1163]

Omg First time i heard his voice from toyota commercial it feels like his pulling my spirit out! Goosebumps! His voice is amazing! Totally my new fave! Keep it up and god bless!

[@Mattguitarman1234]

One of my favorite bands!!

[@dixiesticks]

[@Outrjs]

All along.......pure tears and soul and love.

[@Hllmnblk]

Just pulls you in doesn't it?.. Wow! I felt so relaxed and washed away.

[@darkblue1989]

you might not even read this. first i didnt want to listen to this because its live. i love your album and i didnt want to be disappointed. but truly. most wholeheartedly, i love your voice. it's even better when you sing live

[@btvsq]

I just had a religious experience.

[@Anichka1505]

His music is amazing

[@Nigelrioux1]

[@dennyiswanto4449]

Pure Genius!

[@bonniebuckner3399]

Im ADDICTED TO THIS SONG

[@nervouskeith]

she's always so excited to have them, whoever they are. I would smell a rat if it wasn't for the undeniable truth- perfume genius are the tits! loved this.

[@WelfareChrist]

It is as if he is taking the fear of vulnerability felt by manly men into his body with this music. Like Jesus. All I know is that he is stronger than me, and that I feel grateful he exists.

[@DissorsD]

I'm inlove

[@liamcampbell1125]

[@lushvalley]

Absolutely perfect.

[@TheNimasan]

[@ShedonistaShamanatrix]

My life my life MY LIFE MY LIFE💋💋

[@barry7977]

Great work man. Keep up the great work. You are an inspiration to young gay men. It gets better once your out of school and out in the world. Your music gives hope to the young. It's alright to be just be you. You help to show it.

[@sphher]

i never felt that way about any album

[@dangheck]

I mean this in the best way possible. I would totally kill myself to this song.

[@dangheck]

[@pussygalore5947]

Love the drummer - obvious fan of Ringo Starr

[@bahcsas]

Bowieesque

[@ineffablemars]

+bahcsas bowie, phil Collins, radiohead

[@DarlingPhenylethylamine]

Jeff Buckley haunting, ethereal, poignant.

[@KasperButNotAGhost]

The lack of Floor Tom in My Body makes me so sad :( Wicked session all round though of course

[@stephenmartinez2211]

DETROIT STEVE HERE, LOVE THIS SONG ITS KIXX ASS!!! 🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱🎱

[@ivanrlynn]

[@ShedonistaShamanatrix]

Bowie meets Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds Meets PJ Harvey Meets Cowboy Junkies. And THEN some! 💋

[@RileyStudios]

👏👏👏

[@ufcayr8120]

That's the cure for the lockdown

[@sizzling_wires]

"Where's Seattle?" "I think Toronto"

[@Luzimutti]

Es ist wirklich sehr chic geworden das jeder Mensch sein "Perfekt" in die Welt schmeißen muss oder auch will.Mir geht es auf den "Keks".!!

[@TheDuskwhales]

ewan mcgregor on keys?

[@DarlingPhenylethylamine]

Ben Affleck as Batman on keys.

[@astreiac]

Fabuloso! Como se chama o guitarrista?

[@thegarpling]

Perfume Genius continues the legacy of Jeff Buckley. He reminds me so much of Jeff.
