The War On Drugs performing "Disappearing" Live on KCRW

[@jessicac.j]

I have listened to this song, this album more than any other album in my life. It is pure therapy to my soul. I am so grateful to this music. This album pulled me through the most challenging years of my life. I still turn to it and all their music often.

[@jessicac.j]

This song brings the haunting memories to the surface over and over. The day I can place this song in my background is the day I have found peace. Until that day… it plays and plays and plays .

[@sgiphoto7242]

@@jessicac.j I feel it... Some of my best memories and darkest nights were comforted with this song and album.

[@McHodgebin]

Such a great song and performance.

[@ianhodkinson8516]

This song got me through tough times

[@JamesVibe]

Thats what it is all about!! I feel that way too.... this band saved rock and roll to me. I needed something deeper...this fills it

[@futuropasado]

Lost in the dream was and still is the best album of the decade.

[@jan-louisjordaan8071]

A Deeper Understanding is also brilliant, this is the one band that has really impressed me the last couple of years. Absolutely live their music.

[@futuropasado]

@@jan-louisjordaan8071 it is. Close in quality, still lost in the dream hits harder.

[@KUPHSER]

great album but settle down

[@arcticsmoke302]

I agree with you fully and it is in my top five favorite albums of all time. Anyone who challenges that fact just listen to it fully in the car on a long drive you’re in for a surprise!

[@stevenkay4104]

Better than The Suburbs by Arcade Fire? Or even Smoke + Mirrors by Imagine Dragons?

[@Sarlomac]

This is the best version of Disappearing. I always come back to this video. Just beautiful

[@dagespenlund7999]

100% with you on this one. This version is just on another level😍 Keep commin back too.

[@jrgenpyndt4584]

"disappearing" made me feel sad and joyfull at the same time. I´m a 68 years old Dane. From now on War on Drugs will be among my favourites along with Van Morrison, Tom Waits and others

[@hughyou75]

Jørgen Pyndt The album version is quite beautiful too. Enjoy!

[@dagespenlund7999]

Been listening to WOD for a while now. Tough I discovered them much too late. This band is easily one of my top 3 bands. This version should never end. Just keep on and on and on and on.......amazing🙏 Greetings from a huge fan in Norway.

[@margretbaldus7592]

I feel just the same! It's magic... heardbreaking.........on and on....

[@bluehen738]

Perfection. Dreamy. Hypnotic. Crushing when it gets to the instrumental portion. Wish it went on forever. How do people create such heartbreaking, haunting sonic beauty? And how was this not album of the year? I bought the mp3 version of the album after hearing "Under the Pressure" on Sirius/XM. Song for song, it's a classic.

[@chriss4165]

Love your comment and agree wholeheartedly. My favourite album of all time.

[@Vakirus]

The bassline is amazing

[@ransom1768]

One of the best moments of music I've ever found

[@OllieWheats]

Holy crap only just stumbled upon this version. Unreal.

[@MrJlc93]

That guitar sound is heavenly

[@margretbaldus7592]

Exactly! Could hear it every day

[@futuropasado]

Dreamy, hypnotic... Beyond words, best tune of the album, a masterpiece album.

[@ilovegrimes951]

i agree buddy. Cant get enough of them

[@HunterHunter93]

This song hits different while driving at night, reflecting on past time and what's coming next. How is Adam able to create haunting tunes, that create emotions and a special atmosphere. I can picture myself overlooking at the city lights in the distance. ...

[@1955stargazer]

It's like listening to Neil Young, Bob Dylan, INXS, and Santana mixed together and looking at Lou Diamond Phillips!.. Love this sound! Finally, a great band again!

[@ThePrettyeyes341]

[@peterkelley4981]

This song keeps finding me at the right moments in my life - both happy and sad - since I moved to California. I love it.

[@therosxela]

this song has too much!!! and this simple beign just lost composture when exposed to it, I love its deepnes. I knew of it in a spoti playlist which I am still trying to find after years

[@ThePrettyeyes341]

wow! All I can say is WOW! sounds like a crisp, cold morning right at sunrise. I love it so much that I cant stop listening. He seems so thoughtful ethereal.

[@karenward267]

This is such a beautiful track. I first heard the group when NPR played this album in its entirety and was blown away by the well-composed tracks and the album in its entirety. Perfection.

[@mamabear000]

[@timothywagner8798]

Just amazing… I need to see this band

[@growingupwithfloyd2184]

"To all the Fans of, 'The War on Drugs' their music has a very deep translucent sound, which without your mind even knowing takes you on. A beautiful mental journey, of your own psychosis very powerful. They held in there even though troubled time's, now their the main musical attraction. You have to respect their focus and dedication.

[@GIRAME8]

HAPPY, you know....!! cheers

[@MichaelGuerin]

i love this version of their song, probably the best one imho (except for the outro which totally ruins the vibe, every time!)

[@gabrywynd]

Album meraviglioso! Molto intimista ed onirico

[@MrJoesen81]

ein Genuß...vom feinsten!!!

[@valdecircirico6694]

Guitarrista roxo sonzaco 😎😎🎸🎸🎸🎸🤙

[@PsynceFiction]

Look at the saxophone dude at 1.35 :-) What a sound!!

[@somebloke2238]

I don't need to listen to a song by the war on drugs to know I like it

[@kosmiksoul]

TE-MA-ZO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ♥

[@a.vallon]

perfeitooooooooo

[@chrisk7082]

Makes me laugh that a few are critiquing the solo.. like you could do better ya muppets 😂

[@MrHappydeepsiggi]

♫ very ♫ very ♫ nice ♫

[@diegomancori7682]

Bello serio.

[@tommydch12]

👌👌👌👍

[@TacoVeldstraGrutte]

A combination of JJ Cale, Neil Young, .....their is a real new band rising from the universe and it is: War on Drugs!

[@CustomJawas]

If only this song ended in silence.... the following preview really destroys the experience

[@seanmichael2917]

That fucking harmonica.....

[@domukaz]

lol the Hozier at the end really spoils the moment

[@vousandi8673]

it's obscenely stupid music.

[@keittven]

fuck nice song bro👍😎

[@MatiasGonzalez-uf7vg]

How is the name of the closing song of the program?

[@austintanner5217]

Take Me to Church by Hozier

[@kentrob90]

KCRWs tha shit!!!!!

[@GreatRecordings]

Man, wish he hadn't flubbed a few of those notes on the solo- otherwise a perfect track. Favorite new band by a million miles. There is a lot of sincerity here

[@paulharris5325]

Let's call it improvising cos everything else sounds just do good :-)

[@chrisk7082]

Can you play better? No so shut up

[@lamandy1346]

too less views for such a great song

[@TeamPhooz]

I love war but not drugs... Wait I got that backwards!

[@markross3265]

title final song please..

[@OyeZuko]

Aahhh que bonito suena.

[@joepoz88]

Would you please remove the outro of this video, I have it in a playlist and is really distracting..

[@ThatOtherRaccoon]

Jeez..it takes alot to bend a bass string in a way that makes it appear like a guitar string bend.

[@radkid06]

The instrumentation is stunning, however I do sense Adam is pushing too hard with the vocals, he's a little off key on some of it, otherwise would have been stellar. Still LOVE this tune though...and them.

[@rhwIII84]

I think this is one of the better live performances of this song. In others, the bass is overdone.

[@farislandsun]

Does anyone know what key he is playing in? It looks like E minor to me.

[@MrJlc93]

Andrew Ferguson looks like capo is on 4 so probably G#

[@IsidroMoran]

Best song of 2015... But the solo was a bit sloppy

[@byeofficer340]

Sloppy? Let's just call it raw. :) Beautiful song!!!!!

[@benmarshall5132]

Lonnie Smith will be smiling at this one

[@kndvolk]

I can't believe the sounds coming from this dumb phone of mine.

[@stevenL4U]

Wonderful song outside of those missed solo notes that really ruin it for me.

[@green-ch6qj]

Shameless brought me here 🙌
