Yeasayer - Tightrope

[@connorisawsome8440]

This band deserved waaaaay more recognition. I will always be greatful they were the soundtrack to my teen years, I'll always come back to these guys. Love them forever!

[@mahzorimipod]

they flamed out after their electronic albums didn't do so well

[@rjpm92]

One of those recordings that despite first hearing it 9 or 10 years ago I just have to come back. This version has just something else that really makes it.

[@Lukavichiano]

Oh man, totally agree. I share your story and feelings. This version does something else for me/to me.

[@macmanmanny3983]

Forgetting about this song (name included).. Hearing it in your head all day long. Getting home.. Spending half an hour looking for it. Play. ... Bliss... 😀

[@michaelmadcat]

Haha, so true! Been a Yeasayer fan for years now and I love this version. I just keep on coming back to it.

[@ninak.t.5695]

Saaaameeeee

[@mahzorimipod]

yeasayer peaked here

[@ebjeezer]

@rjpm92 - 14 years later, still keep coming back. There is something so special about this song and performance, the layers are just amazing.

[@icemouf7480]

My KZbin with this music is all i had with this music here that got me through after my family was destroyed and all i had left was my Grandmother and she was took!!!!...and killed...and i couldn't do nothing because i had no support system left...and all i had was this type of music here to get me through!!...💎💎💎💎 thank you KZbin 😢😥💎

[@paulyshore1942]

2010 was a golden year in music

[@njv1234]

2007-2010!

[@fromwithagainstbehind7380]

YESSSS

[@vesnarakic4]

This song changed/saved my life. Thank you yeasayer

[@Burglekutt3000]

This is my favorite recording of any song

[@MazalRae]

I miss their music so much

[@littlestbroccoli]

Thank you The Current for keeping this recording up for so long. I come back to hear it every once in a while to remember those times.

[@TheWonderpants]

Probably one of the best videos (songs) I've ever seen. These guys have made music interesting and the sad thing is no one will ever know. For my part: They played the best show I've ever seen.

[@pauljustice5410]

+Jon LeClair I am new to them. And now I know.

[@HWynn87]

Get a grip mate this video has nearly 2m views

[@windowzombie]

Saw them at first ave in 2014 or 2015, honestly such amazing musicians, loved it.

[@johnr797]

What are you on about?

[@meyloose1013]

You share the same name as my favorite hockey player of all time

[@makaveli88888]

Miss this yeasayer

[@swimdreamer]

not trying to say i am anyone more than i am, or ever will be.. but i am obsessed with music.. with great music.. and yeasayer came to me when my little journey found the valley.. i'm up on the mountain now.. what a beautiful view..

[@diegooliveirabenjamin]

I honestly believe people stopped listening to Yeasayer, not only they're still there but they only improve, always bold and always engaging. Maybe some of us never really got them. To me they're the future of music.

[@Joemoo.]

Diego Oliveira man, they seriously are. I adore them

[@AshcIaw]

I understand them

[@CallumT15]

This is one of my favourite live performances. And to think have disbanded is sad, incredibly talented. Odd blood is unreal

[@DillonD14]

The problem is that they make true music. They aren’t like all the mainstream “musicians” that have all the same beats, lyrics, and tunes.

[@rogerwindsor7494]

Been listening since I was like 15 and I'm almost 30. What makes you think I'm going to stop now? This is a very underrated song

[@MrDonutslut]

1:30 "so you think you can solve all your problems by yourself" best sounding lyric of the song

[@fromwithagainstbehind7380]

Feels like Glass Animals owes Yeasayer some royalties..

[@RocksnDnB]

Great song, can‘t find thru shazam or soundhound ect Was hard to figure out the artist/songname, but Finally i found it and felt a happiness to hear it in loop today. Great song!!!!

[@juliofranco6127]

2023! Long reign yea

[@oridniv]

I'm beyond being in LOVE with this band one of my absolute faves

[@wantonetwo1]

Beautiful song, chills every time

[@FiadhC1]

I could listen to this ALL DAY!

[@smurf238]

it's fucking awesome how they have a kookaburra's call throughout the song - i love how they do that, it adds just this little bit extra, and makes you go, "that's fucking great". has anyone else noticed it?

[@fumma4592]

I will forever be fucking grateful for being able to hear this song live on there last tour before they split up I love this song and I can’t believe they actually played it. I also love them because they gave me a guest list and I was able to see them because of them I love you yeasayer you’ve been a big part of my life

[@mahzorimipod]

haha, i saw them them at lollapalooza in 2008 and they were one of the sets i still remember

[@senatorgracus]

this is my favorite version of this song, this particular recording. I love how he staggers the *uh huh uhs*. Good harmony as well.

[@chrismd465]

Definitely an incredible set at PItchfork.. I saw them a few months ago and they just keep getting better and better since.

[@tonyhawh20]

Thats such a feel good song. Bring on the spring

[@cestmoi1979]

Only discovered Yeasayer!! They are one of the best and original bands out there!!!

[@kevseabass]

best version of this song, love it. the drummer brings something to this song shame he isn't still with them

[@iAple]

The world is upside down, people should praise and admire those with enough talent and courage to innovate and create beautiful music, not hate on them.

[@Thedragonwithin]

they were so great at camp bisco. I fell in love all over again every song they played!

[@mmcglenn]

i wholeheartedly agree. i can't imagine anything topping this. absolute genius.

[@turquoisedaydream]

Amazing

[@timothyj.wright5833]

One of the weirdest bands I've ever heard, but man do they put on an awesome live show! This is a pretty good representation of their live sound, but the video doesn't do it justice. They're an experience!

[@drumstick74]

I'm jawdropped, why haven't I heard you guys before now...?

[@dirtydimes80]

That's exactly what I though when I first heard them.

[@Dr.JeremyDunks]

Exactly. These guys are just incredible

[@kamtym2633]

Agree, ambling alp, and longevity is also great!

[@tonymaldonado1659]

Tighten up, THIS IS OLD

[@bigballzs]

one of the greatest live bands ive been fortunate to see

[@RossRaws]

I am seeing them live for the second time tomorrow! They are ridiculously good live, that is how I got into them!

[@JCtheone1]

Amazing the energy spent on making sure that everyone is aware of your negative opinion. What do you get out of that, if you don't like it you are just a click away from removing it from the peace that you have in this world. Good luck to you in finding enjoyment in things.

[@uhhwellthatsnotgood]

Dude that is truly awesome. Ive been listening to it for the past two years and just can't realize how they aren't so much bigger. I wish there were more people like you

[@pactivald75]

Thanks for Your fantastic performance 15/08/2010 Sziget fesztival, Budapest, Hungary. See You next year!!! Forever Yours... X.

[@pactivald75]

Thanks for Your fantastic performance 15/08/2010 Sziget fesztival, Budapest, Hungary. See You next year!!! Forever Yours... I.

[@windhammatt]

[@atomickiwi]

Brooklyn represent. god they are soooo good...

[@LettuceCookTogether]

[@barzop07]

they are incredible, I've been listening to this song since yestarday and I simply can't stop lol. it's outstanding ! Can't wait to hear it live at Opener festival in July

[@SolomonJonesIsBack]

Found this on Dark Was The Night which I found through listening to The National....great song.

[@billhicks8]

Goes to show originality is still possible in the modern musical world.

[@kr8digga]

VERSION Holy Sh.. Yeasayer.. saw em live for Odd Blood.. one of the most under-appreciated, ground-breaking bands of the oughts and beyond..

[@giardjarbinks]

this is the first song in a long time to make me smile the first time i hear it because its so good.

[@openupawindow]

Can't wait to see them in Madison! YAY!

[@milly0404]

Simply Amazing.

[@canadagirl408]

God, I CANNOT wait to see them next month!!! They are so awesome

[@WovenWomb]

They are never gonna be better than this.

[@jonQuest82]

Spot on! Yeah I definitely hear that influence in the vocals too .

[@JoLampert]

absolutely. SO TRUE. both of those other songs are also songs i have been mix-CDing for a while, and this one is certainly up there. good call!

[@jabbermouse]

favorite band.

[@lopsided3363]

I have been listening to this since I found out about Cloud Cult and I have to say that I still have so much love for this band!!!!

[@clooky04]

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLY FUUUUUUUUUUCK. i think this band might be the reason i'v been listening to music for the last 31 years; to find this band.

[@JohnWhite22422]

these guys are definitely on a rise to the top.

[@snocat219]

This band is breath taking.

[@casualvideowatcher]

I genuinely miss Yeasayer.

[@fabianreah1708]

Yeah it’s immensely sad that they called time.

[@jcbizzy]

This is such a brilliant song.

[@AllieMoonSailor]

the way he sings in this song is like music to my ears.........wait

His voice is amazing! so haunting

[@MrtheManiel]

saw them last night, and despite the relative shortness of it, I'd do it all over again. amazing

[@jpetro99]

astounding..........his voice is like instrument all by itself

[@C.R.Castaneda-nm5xt]
