The Walkmen - We've Been Had

[@righteousrat]

I have a feeling this song holds a very special meaning to everyone in this group. They always play it with such seriousness and passion. This is easily one of the best songs ever written. The Walkmen never got the recognition they deserve

[@sydrizvi9340]

You recognised them, you felt them. What more can be asked? FK the mass, FK the billboards

[@b_i_l_l_w_i_l_l_i_a_m_s_o_n]

It’s apparently the first song they wrote together

[@burnlastsunday]

Hamilton said the words are basically gibberish that doesn't make any real sense. Just sounds cool.

[@Spirit0f]

The longer I'm around, the more weight this song carries.

[@nicolejeune8778]

Love this 1 of my favorites 🙌🏾

[@gpsparati8597]

One of my favorite songs EVER. Really

[@bigshug8576]

Every time I’m drunk wish these cats would give it another go

[@kingaedwards731]

And they are back!

[@michaelethan6545]

They opened with this when I saw them last October. Cried happy tears.

[@angrydrunkengerman2819]

As you age the lyrics ring more true.

[@joeykremple]

Hey world....god help me please produce more music like this.

[@Estebansisimo]

Greatest American Band of the century

[@megcicc]

The very best version I’ve heard. ❤

[@LiveStreamPhx]

The first song they played was this song and also was the last before the hiatus. I hope the reunion shows always ends with this song

[@bartocorleone]

no words... this is beyond magical... this needs to be used to measure beauty... a new canon

[@waz3128]

I loved that haunting drunken piano on '' Everyone Pretended to Like me is gone''. I'm not sure why it wasn't as present in the mix on their subsequent releases, maybe they were worried it would become too gimmicky.

[@eduardocastillo6527]

What a perfect version of this track...hammy, bring back the walkmen! I beg you.

[@raindaresmusic]

how am i seeing this for the first time almost 20 years after first hearing/memorizing this song? wow. this version.

[@keeganrmoore]

Almost 2022 and I'm still here

[@christianbecker8108]

I love this song so much

[@amnesiacradar]

One of my favourite bands, up there with Pixies, Radiohead, Smiths, Sigur Ros, IDLES, absolutely amazing.

[@nicolejeune8778]

Favorite song in 2021 😍🙌🏾🇺🇸👑🎉

[@martinrose6357]

OMG SAME!

[@unknownlegend6275]

One of the best concerts I’ve been to. Beach house with the Walkmen. Memorable night ❤️circa summer 2012

[@Krieky]

Was watching the new show on Apple TV+ where this gorgeous song played in the background. I had to stop the program and immediately go look for the song. And here I am!

[@MustasLinked]

What show?

[@Krieky]

[@rustyshepperd]

I can probably watch this 100 times nonstop and never get tired of it.

[@nachowailing]

I'm a modern guy I don't care much for the go-go Or the retro image I see so often telling me to Keep trying maybe you'll get here someday Keep up the working, ok. I close the book on them right there I see myself change as the days change over. I hear the songs and the words don't change. I write them out of the book right there. We've been had, you say it's over. Sometimes I'm just happy I'm older. We've been had I know it's over. Somehow it got easy to laugh out loud. See me age 19 with some dumb haircut from 1960 moving to New York City Live with my friends there we're all taking the same steps seems foolish now . We've been had you say it's over. Sometimes I'm just happy I'm older. We've been had I know it's over. Somehow it got easy to laugh out loud.

[@uchihagaeshi1169]

nachospimp These are probably Hamilton's simplest lyrics ever, and yet they're one of my very favorites. There's so much to say about them, but one of my favorite things is that they seem to not really mean anything ( I mean, see you with some dumb haircut from 1960, ok...??) but as a whole they make so much sense and mean so much. It's sad, and somehow it seems to signify the end of something. Even though this was in 2002.

[@MarcAnthem]

@@uchihagaeshi1169 it's about getting older and realizing being cool doesn't matter as much as you think.

[@MoiraRussell]

Wow, beautiful.

[@royrodriguez481]

I miss them...from Argentina 🇦🇷

[@KristenYi]

Hamilton’s voice is amazing! Great band!

[@harleygal420]

First time I heard this song/band was on a television commercial for some automobile for sale. The voice/song captured me, I went as far as contacting the car company, or maybe it was the television company to inquire about the artist/song. I was thrilled I got a response.

[@fabriziofalconi207]

Semplicemente bellissima!

[@cristianreyes-gajardo6081]

righteousrat has a point, they are actually one of the best bands that ever existed and I as a South American person. I love the way that Hamilton's sourness totally express itself, they sound like a real band.

[@Joel5118751]

Love the Triangle work. The Walkmen are the shit!

[@bigshug8576]

Easily my favourite band of all time

[@seanwhitton8332]

the way it ends and they don't celebrate adds even more weight to this song

[@DavidGarcia-fi8of]

So many great shows with these guys.. Would love to see them get back together

[@lr8786]

This is a really great song.

[@PaulyM856]

Ah 240p. We meet again old friend. 💙

[@pjw2000]

A million times better than the studio version (which is still pretty good).

[@nvsoliveira]

The first song they wrote, the last song they played.

glad they aren't bigger

[@FartSexOfficial]

Big Shug Why? Do you not want them to be successful?

[@roby99]

@@FartSexOfficial the more successful you are the more pressure you got from fans and record label to create new music and make $, The National is the perfect example, its over for them now they to big since a couple of years, you need to keep a certain balance.

[@roby99]

true, but would also be nice if they were still together

[@FartSexOfficial]

@@roby99 maybe they want to make a new album but don’t find the strength in them to make one because of how small their fan base is. If I was in a band I would want to be recognized
