This is one of my all time favorite live performances. I love how she just belts it out towards the end!

[@petermariner6323]

I must have watched it a hundred times, still blows me away. 1.5k upvotes... people have absolutely no idea.

[@BarneyFife1111]

Great band. They have a unique sound with guitar combined with interesting vocals.

AMAZING! TENNIS YOU ARE AMAZING!

[@thewildhoneypie]

We agree!

[@eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeo]

Audio sounds so goooood. Always worth downloading these even though I've got the CD's

[@DianaMartinez-jj5db]

This version is better than the album.

[@thewildhoneypie]

Damn thanks for that compliment!

[@Scramalope]

OH yes! I agree. She kills it! Plus a crazy cool video :)

[@arturog5736]

It is! Can't wait to see them live

[@aiyetorocosmic1515]

I actually love the album version better. I've been a fan of Tennis for years.

[@ziegeeldenso8281]

Just bought their CD(for this song) and agree!

[@cycloneranger5354]

She is so dreamy.. damn good version as well

[@ABPOTUBE]

Jot some things down on a list Under the header, "Things to Fix" It's wrong, I know But I can't let go Somedays i can't think what to do My thoughts are all consumed with you It hurts, I know But I can't let go Timothy, say something sweet to me Say it slowly until you believe Tell me that you find increasingly Elements of merit within me Baby, you are either-or And I'm the other at the door It's hard, I know But I can't let go Seems like nature cannot help But incriminate itself It's wrong, I know But I can't let go Timothy, say something sweet to me Say it slowly until you believe Tell me that you find increasingly Elements of merit within me A hard heart will make a man blind And a hard heart gets harder with time It's wrong, I know I can't let go [x2] Timothy, say something sweet to me Say it slowly until you believe Tell me that you find increasingly Elements of merit within me A hard heart will make a man blind And a hard heart gets harder with time It's wrong, I know I can't let go [x3]

[@retrolyte]

The feel of this song is all over the drummer's face.

[@thewildhoneypie]

Haha, totally!

[@aquadee91]

"Timothy say something sweet to me/say it slowly until you believe" "Nature cannot help this incriminated self" Lyrics hits you so hard that you can't recover...

[@judyintheburg]

sublime! tantalizing! delectable!

[@andreslanderosanmartin5559]

I love it and I love her!

[@greatbudda]

Man so glad I found this band from KZbin's recommended videos. Now I found all these great bands Buzzsesion's.

[@omnipop4936]

Wow, beautiful vocal vibrato (1:02 and elsewhere). And I love the vibrant C#7 chord they added to the song (3:25 and elsewhere). Gives it a John Lennon vibe. So cool.

[@p.s.5634]

my favorite song right now

[@ronnielane6903]

I never get tired of listening to Tennis. This song is but one of many incredible songs from this album.

[@kenscar]

Saw them last night in Charlotte NC opening for The Decemberists. She said this song is about a Washington Post music critic that went out of his way to give a shitty review to one of their albums. I'm pretty sure I'm in love with this lady now

[@warjikin]

Ken Scar I saw that show in Richmond.

[@judyintheburg]

who is this Timothy punk and why can't he find elements of merit within her?

@@etrup23 I just checked them out... sounds like his wife could write hundreds of songs for him and none would be as beautiful as this one, she really is awful, their music is some of the try-hardest punk shit I've ever heard. Amateur crap.

[@modst84]

That sound ❤

[@tee_savy100]

She is such a goddess

[@eu_lan]

[@jjarmendariz363]

Thank you tennis. I'll see you someday

[@ethelbagon4537]

This brings back some of the happiest and most painful moments of my life...

[@bongofury5924]

I have put my Zappa, Nugent, Sabbath, Tubes, Yes, Jeff Beck, etc. on the shelf for a while until I fully digest all this refreshing material......

[@milesbolinger]

Wow i love their songs, but the live performance is soo good!

[@yatta025]

At 3:15, I'm taken into a whole new dimension.

[@ariadnaflores6309]

Me encanta como suena ♡ no dejo de escucharla

[@eduardoneri8980]

esta genial esta versión :D

[@omnipop4936]

3:20 Love the way Alaina sings the word "...slowly..." It's got a sort of little boy quality to it. Reminds me of Leigh Nash from Sixpence None The Richer.

[@ohfenomeno]

God, this is SOOOO good! God bless great composers!

[@thezone30]

Puedo escuchar una y mil veces esta canción, me encanta

[@southrules]

[@jesshutchin-sunyoto7669]

What was the song that was playing before the actual song started?

[@Your14yearold_self]

(Timothy the same song)

[@MrAsianBumblebee]

0:23-0:29, You can't really here it but, Alaina sings a song and I want to know it please.

[@cshanestephenson158]

I think she's just singing Do Re Mi to warm up.

[@oakleywyatt1717]

did anyone else notice the different lyrics in the first verse?

[@davdruan]

Link in description isn't working.

[@thewildhoneypie]

Fixed!

[@BoraLavendar]

who is Timothy?

[@kelseylane2857]

Chibimomoiro It’s Alaina’s “revenge song” about a Washington Post journalist (Timothy) who wrote a bad review of them

[@ToolsnFire]

hybrid with Bat for Lashes

[@timothykim856]

oh thank you for serenading me. just joking lol....

[@BoraLavendar]

uu why the lyric is diff

[@capone70]

GREAT band and song. Just wish the warm-up at the beginning were a real song. That was actually better than the track.

[@willg8086]

capone70 you don't know tennis if you think that's not a real song
