I’m not sure why Tame Impala private this version of the song I was just listening to it earlier but I’m glad this video exists, I didn’t care for the newer version of Borderline

[@lynn4218]

to be honest I don't really like the new version of borderline, I prefer this one. I also came to this video to listen to the original

[@AnathanPram]

yea, should just leave the old version for some people who prefer like that

they removed it around 2am - 5am this morning (Perth local time) I was listening to it and suddenly missing in the 2nd minute, spotify youtube apple music etc

New version: Better mix This version: Better lyrics I want a hybrid of the two.

[@starbender5468]

I actually prefer this mix a bit. I like how ethereal it sounds compared to the new one. I wish Kevin only fixed the bass like he said along with adding the train sounds. If he just did those two things, it would be perfect!!

i love how u included a lil bit of tvd in there

@@starbender5468 same, the somber lyrics just don’t fit more upbeat and more lively mixes, a somber lyric with a chill mix is perfect for this song

[@starbender5468]

@@DoZen_Productions yeah, also on a complete sidenote- kevin ruined the tense grammar of the lyrics in the new version “I WONDER how I managed to end up in this place and I COULDN’T” which implies it is his current stream of thoughts (but then why would he use the word couldn’t?? in the old version he said “ASKIN’ how I managed to end up in this place and I COULDN’T get away” which implies he is narrating a past event, in which case “couldn’t” would make sense... shut up im not overthinking

Going through the comments, I’m glad to see I’m not the only one who doesn’t have the original version. I prefer it over what it was replaced with.

[@thesponge836]

The feeling is pretty much unanimous. What was he thinking? Pressure from the label?

[@aabee3695]

Yep. The part starting at 2:39 is completely missing in the album version. I also like this "chill" moment without the drums in the background at 2:49. You can hear the bassline better in the new version, though, which I really like. I didn't even realize how good it sounds.

[@karstensbored1014]

Can someone tell me what exactly he changed in the song I just can’t find the difference

[@fadumomohamed2342]

@@infernic5216it’s the way he sings the lyrics and the echos on some of the words. It sounds very different

[@CountOnCrypto]

Bassline is far too quiet, elements of the song don't stand out individually in the mix although it's not an awful mix. If you played this through a bigger system of speakers rather than headphones you'd notice the issues way more. I love Tame Impala and this is one of my favourite songs, but definitely respect the fact they re-released it with a new mix!

I feel they’re too different to compare the two. This one easily takes the cake for more creative lyrics and a more ethereal vibe while the slow rush version easily wins in bass and groove. They’re both good in their own ways.

I like the lyrics more in this one but I like the louder bass in the other. Someone made a version mixing the two tho and it’s really good

Askin' how I managed to end up in this place And I couldn't get away We're on the borderline Dangerously far and all forgiven There's gonna be a fight Gonna be a price to pay on Monday (If you and I get comfortable) We're on the borderline (on the borderline) Caught between the tides of pain and rapture Then I saw the time (saw the time) Watched it speedin' by like a train Like a train Will I be known and loved? Is there one that I trust? Starting to sober up Has it been long enough? Will I be known and loved? Little closer, close enough I'm a loser, loosen up Set it free, must be tough Will I be known and loved? Is there one that I trust? If there's room, room for doubt As within, as without ya Will I be so in love? Gettin' closer, close enough Shout out to what is done R.i.p. Here comes the sun Here comes the sun Gone a little far Gone a little far this time with something How could I have known? How was I to know this life get no shame I said, "Come with me outside" I need to clear my mind This weight is crushing Do you see the light, oh Coming from their eyes, oh no And I couldn't get away We're on the borderline Gets me every time These close encounters Just to know I can (just to know I can) Once again, I am alone Will I be known and loved? Is there one that I trust? Starting to sober up Has it been long enough? Will I be known and loved? Little closer, close enough I'm a loser, loosen up Set it free, must be tough (I was fine without ya) Will I be known and loved? L.A. really messed me up And it isn't cut and dry Conversation, well I tried (I was fine without ya) Will I be? Stay right here Any closer, bad idea Shout out to what is done R.I.P. here comes the sun (I was fine without ya) Will I be known and loved? Is there one that I trust?

My all time favorite i cant live with out this masterpiece

[@scrubelite4915]

This song really gives the vibe of someone in emotional pain trying to just get rid of/work through the emotions with the use of hard drugs, something like LSD or Shrooms. In reality though, it just enhances your emotions and you get caught in an almost emotional break (best way I can describe it). I feel this especially through the lyrics “Rudy said it’s fine they used to do this all the time in college.” And “caught between the tides between pain and rapture.” Also, “how was I to know? How was I to know this high came rushing?”
