Saw them at Melbourne Laneway festival, January 2018. About halfway through I hear this guy behind me say "I'm pretty sure we're watching the best band in the world right now". Hard to disagree.

[@karenvillanueva1301]

I'm 71 (I think I'm still in my thirties, my body doesn't agree) and I'm happy to have happened on this band recently, I'm late to the game, but then it's never too late to discover something new. Glad I did.

You took the words right out of my mouth. I saw these at Glastonbury(on tv). Absolutely amazing band. They restore my confidence in this generation's ability to keep on rocking! By the way I'm 70 . Recently I have bought their last 3 albums... yes it is driving my wife nuts.

Great band who were late to the game themselves. They broke out in 2011 when they were in their early thirties.

[@DiaperGranny11]

37 here and discovered them last summer. This song specifically has become my summer song. I’m also divorced and feel constant pressure on all fronts of my life. Somehow this song reminds me of all the good in my life and how I am thriving despite everything. My ex is very petty and calculating but it is absolutely true. The best revenge is no revenge. I disappeared for a summer and rose from the ashes anew and feel 27 with the wisdom of a 47 year old. Glad you and I have that same youthful energy repute our trials and tribulations, brother 👊🏽

[@kndvolk]

Simply amazing and spiritual. My son says he loves it. He passed to heaven March 13, 2020, and was an accomplished and talented guitarist. I know he loves this...he just spoke to my heart. He's smiling. I miss you son.

[@glennhalila8279]

Wow, I'm sorry about your talented Guitarist Son's passing away. He's in Rock and Roll Heaven. In the Seven Plains of the Shambhala from what I was taught through my Spiritual Journey and Enlightenment, is that The Seven Plains of the Shambhala are in all Actuality Seven Planets in another Demention where one's Soul goes to, to learn their CHOSEN Profession and hone one's Skills where their is like Minded Souls all trying to achieve a Perfection as much as possible. There's Giant 20 foot tall Crystals on each of these Planets and many of them to Create a Crystal Consciousness. Frequencies are very important in the expansion of the Universe and of Knowledge, Consciousness, And Love. I have been studying this since I was 13 years old. I know that your son is playing his Guitar in what you would call Heaven (That's Ok) Humanity has been lied to about everything, because we're living on a Prison Planet. If you check out The Farsight Institute's KZbin videos you may find out what that means. I recommend getting yourself a Subscription for FarsightPrime.com and checking out Doctor Steven Greer's latest KZbin video. I have been trying to send messages to people who I believe may be interested in trying to prevent the Human Race from certain Extinction! I'm not joking! Right now we're in Check and Checkmate isn't very far away!

[@stumpystumper1274]

💯💯💯

[@josebelobloop]

Agreed. This is probably the best Under the pressure version out there. You can actually see the song winning over each and everyone in that crowd as it progresses. No fanfare, just pure and utter bliss.

[@CMS4378]

I'm here for the baritone player. Just holding a Baritone for 14 minutes is a feat in itself ( heavy beasts), but the sustained playing is something else!

[@ronparsons8786]

I'm just back here to watch this again for the 800th time. gets better every single damn time

[@rudybelvedere6190]

Just great can't say much more just great

[@ronparsons8786]

I'm just here in 9 months later replying to my own comment after watching this video again. On the heels of their new album about to drop. This is absolutely transcendent

[@frankiebob3365]

Absolutely superb. Been following this band since 2012 after I saw them in concert in front of less than 100 people.. go figure.

[@elijahfinch3349]

if you like The War On Drugs you should check out Lonely Gimmick - Stay At Home To Sleep In, it gives me strong War On Drugs vibes and its one of the best new indie songs I've heard in a while

[@soundssimple1]

Just bought 3 of their albums including 'Live Drugs'. Sensational.

[@mamie4687]

i’m 14 but went to go see them live a couple years ago with my dad. immediately fell in love with their songs. whenever i go on a road trip with my father we always play the lost in the dream album and jam out. probably my favorite band ever

[@dennish72]

Me too

[@louisrichards3160]

Easter 2024 still ROCKING to this version ❤️🙏💐

[@KDallas66]

Every time I see Charlie going crazy in this song, I go crazy after him.

[@ronparsons8786]

I keep returning to this version. It's my favorite of the many on YT. The extended bridge in the middle... There is just something so pure and damn near hypnotic about it... The long foreplay opening...The sax just gently caressing your temporal lobe... The drummer is just in the zone... Then it all kicks back in... I can't even with how much I love this

[@markrowe6967]

Couldn't have said it better mate.

[@marconius2020]

Your summary is right on target. Would love to see these guys live one day when we can do that again.

[@deketk]

You aren't kidding. I've loved this song for a few years, have seen the many-many live versions on YT. This had to be a special night or something. This is the : Under the pressure 'pure indulgence' version.

[@paulnguyen3122]

gotta go see them once or twice in my lifetime! Epic!

[@rises889]

same..what a ride!!!!!!

[@teamoselith]

I wouldn't have cared if the song lasted more than 20 minutes ... it still would have felt too short ... this is called Music Art

[@tommckelvie5923]

Goosebumps. This song has helped me through many of life’s challenges

[@danielcarrier118]

I CAN'T STOP WATCHING THIS. This song makes me feel SO UPLIFTING.I would have LOVED to been in that crowd. amazing.

[@dakotahrivers6640]

Man, this band straight up fully performs the songs. All the synths, everything. I'm endlessly impressed by TWOD. Seriously captures so much of how i feel in music form

[@markrowe6967]

I feel like I have contributed at least 1/368th of these 368k views. I watch this everyday and probably will till the day I die. Followed by Eyes to the Wind from the same gig. Everyday. Keeps ya soul good x

[@billhage8267]

Watch this song done at Bonnaroo

[@steveollis7889]

‘Under the Pressure’ was the first song I discovered from WoD many moons ago and THIS live version has just blown me away!! It’s 6am on a Saturday morning.... WHAT A START TO MY DAY!!! 🙏

[@daveoberhelman5485]

Witness the power of the sustained groove.

[@christiaan81music]

That's a cool bandname "the power of the sustained groove"

Buy the sound man a drink 🥃 - Bravo Hugs from Philadelphia / love & respect ✊

[@RichM0410]

This song is euphoric! I get tears in my eyes…. It grabs me and I’m immersed In the music. I love music and this just takes over! Hard to explain. Looking for tickets to see them don’t care what it costs… life is short…. Live it! Be good to others, love one another. Enjoy cause life is going by faster every year.

[@WestchesterNYMilton]

I hear you. What a masterpiece this is. I'm watching it again today and will likely watch it again in the future. Long live The War on Drugs!

[@djjohnarmitage]

I feel the exact same .. your words are the ones I've been searching for...

[@stevesemenuk4497]

Hope you get tickets to go. Probably best show I have seen in 30 years of concerts

[@RichM0410]

@@djjohnarmitagethat is very appreciated!

[@chrismarcusky1]

This song does to me today what Jane's Addiction's "Three Days" did to me in the '90s. DAMN.

[@lorvik66]

If I could like this 10,000 times, I would.

[@windingwheel]

Has to be one of the best live performances and videos of all time. Not sure I’ve ever seen a band that bonded to one goal

[@davetighe]

I was 72 yesterday, can't wait to get my tickets to Liverpool, awesome, absolutely awesome band, makes you forget all the sh*t that's going on all over the world.

Best version of best song written in the last 10 years! Saw them live in dublin 2018.... amazing show! Please release a live album!

[@kevinmarr2162]

[@julianrowlands3608]

They're releasing a live album on November 20th 2020 called ' Live Drugs' . I cant wait!

[@mtown1994]

Still the best thing on the internet.

[@sundaramaji]

savage. that song could go on for a week and i still wouldn't tire of it

[@JonnyH123]

I’m 62 love these guys. Last summer I tried to turn a 25yo guy friend onto WOD, specifically Under Pressure. Sadly it didn’t work, he’s hopelessly into rap. He actually said he disliked this song. That hurt ✌️

[@robgammage9031]

That drummer ♥️ Animal from the Muppets in human form!

[@olimpictv]

Lol!!!

[@jellysandwich1013]

OMG!! Hell yessssss! LOL!!

Right?!!!! Lol!!!

[@oooooooooooo2332]

Yeah!!!

[@tonyjones1560]

Absolutely!

[@monolithsound]

It's a perfect illustration of how it truly is all about a good song. And this band have that nailed. I'm 56 and remember the days when that was akll that mattered. Thank you War On Drugs!

[@umer.on.youtube]

Thank you sir. Same feeling and thoughts here. What do you mean by "akll" though?

[@monolithsound]

@Umer Qaiser thank you, and misspelled the word "all".

[@umer.on.youtube]

@@monolithsound Gotcha. I'm 30 right now and I love how pure music was back then in the 80s/90s and early 2000s

[@HoodyBoy85]

10:56 The ‘we do this for a living’ look

[@KaiPonte]

Wow, a thirteen minute version of this already brilliant song. Must see these guys live...someday.

[@jakehyrule7260]

Seen them twice, deffinetly do it when you have a chance.

[@simoneward4217]

I hope I do too. Brilliant band.

[@briandyer9661]

I have seen them once, they are great. They are the real deal 👍

Making an old man feel young again, kicks me right in the pastries, this is what music should do to you, if God has a stereo I bet he plays this top volume too, it’s my neighbours new tune whether they like it or not, 😊

Charlie Hall went to the moon and back on this one, man.

Every now and then in the 21st C, a tune sidles up amongst all the dross and averageness, taps you on the shoulder and reminds you of why you fell in love with rock music.❤️❤️💣💥

What song did that?

[@martinbuehler944]

For sure by Future Island

[@garyaanderson214]

yes agreed

[@jeremyshewell2445]

You nailed it . This song is THAT SONG. Unreal!!!

[@CaptainVelveeta]

Seeing people in the crowd who love this song as much as I do gives me chills 🤗

WOW!!! I am 52 years old, I have never heard of this band..excellent music, really, but MISTER drummer is really demon.. no fault, perfect .. thank you!

I have a new drug - TWOD! 66 yrs old and the music gets better and better. These guys write the songs I wish I had written and are the band I wish I was in.

[@panicatthecostco]

This is what happens when a band is full of talented musicians! Amazing!

[@mattdalzell9488]

Saw them in aug 2022 in Toronto and holy moly this song was by far the highlight of the night.
