Amazing ❤

[@Renanaguilar]

Thievery corporation showed the world how to make authentic elegant music....they never stop...I can compare them to Massive Attack in their respective genres.

[@cristobalrodriguez6207]

One is one

[@danzvash]

lol

[@vladworxx]

MA is more of a trip hop duo. But the comparison with the legendary french band Air will be more correct.

[@michaelwoessner4365]

I still cry a river of tears each time i listen this track ! Just because the beautiful Sound!

[@StarFox85]

we will laugh soon about all this brother

[@OpaOpaAmerikaNaduppa]

Justin Timberlake approved.

[@serezhamkheyan7255]

This is how music must sound.

[@kuba2559]

[@AB-ik6kh]

Hash is the man

[@sowhat...]

@@AB-ik6kh Hash is his name? Which one is he? I don't seem to get any results looking him up. I mean not very sure how either. I just typed Hash bass on KZbin.

[@AB-ik6kh]

@@sowhat... @hashonbsss is his Instagram

[@michaelwoessner4365]

He is fully into it ! He is so much talented, call him a genius and you still underestimte his skillz!

[@omairsh8]

@@AB-ik6kh What an appropriate name/nickname, his basslines always make me feel high

[@dante666jt]

This live version can stay rent free in my head

[@omairsh8]

I want to marry the bassline, move in to the city with it and raise a family

[@camillemahaayrault7621]

[@reezy8899]

This song has been known to reduce anxiety 👍🏻

[@RoadPancho]

i had no idea Jeff Goldblum could rock a bass like that. One love, Jurassic Park.

[@marcusaurelius4298]

Это просто шикарно! Настолько все атмосферно! Как человек игравший в оркестре, скажу что это колыбельная) Про вокал вообще молчу❤ Друзья это просто вышка!

[@serezhamkheyan7255]

Чаще всего слушаю эту песню почти каждый день и не устаю потому что это колыбельная для души, воздух становится плотнее от это гармонии

Bass Player consumes 6000 calories a day to fuel his intense bass playing.

[@Catch_u_reloadn]

Him an Flea

[@sophicsage]

Aspirations for myself lol

[@RebornThaRebizzle]

This reminds me of the old school Massive Attack band from their first album, Blue Lines.

[@christophecoppens5468]

I remembered Thievery Corporation when they started. Thanks for pure moment of pleasure and the radio for this moment. In France we can't have that kind of events. May be on Nova Radio.

My favorite Thievery Corporation song. Hands down. The best of their best.

[@smitty31560]

Damn it's 6 minutes long? I just started listening and then it seemed like it was over!

[@sebastiansica7722]

Una de las canciones más bellas de Thievery Cop. Y el bajista Ashish Vyas debería ser considerado el tercer intergante de la banda, además de Rob Garza y Eric Hilton, no sé qué opinan :)

[@susanaramirez6183]

raskolnikov7722 es una de las mejores canciones que e escuchado en mi vida

[@RobinSingh-lf3iq]

this song gives me goose bumps!

[@highspacefox]

[@danielbarber9423]

[@adrianaisabel5706]

Incredible.

[@cvridhhi]

[@anthonyyair4179]

Kexp have the uncanny ability to open up tracks and amplify them into something superior to the original studio version.

[@shuLyvioLet]

omg I want to marry this song

[@juanmigueloctaviano6736]

I love this song. The drummer looks like he was annoyingly woken up from a nap. It's like licking honey off of a knife.

[@cryptofts]

Best band ever !!! This song is amazing !!!!

[@touchmysoul2677]

Wahnsinnig schön!!! .......................................................sowas von!!!

Como não amar Thievery Corporation?

Thievery Klangteppich Corporation. ❤

[@JAMES45229]

It's so good I wanna copy it and make it mine, but that would be blatant "Thievery" What a track!

[@88erl88]

I heard this song for the first time in 2012. Then I was a big fan of TC. Saxophone sounds very beautiful.

[@mariob1060]

A prayer

[@bradlovely6936]

Now this is a conscious JAM! Thievery Corp. are the master -class badasses of tasteful avant-garde chill vibes!

For another full moon Friday 2 hour bliss session. ya know it's because of these guys I know who coined the phrase "culture of fear" and have an understanding what's going on with this culture in the US.
