Villagers - Home (Live on KEXP)

Villagers' Conor J. O'Brien performs "Home" live for KEXP in the Caffe Vita Bean Room during the 2010 Capitol Hill Block Party. Recorded 7/25/10.

[@bonanahh]

When he said, "Thank you, I've been Villagers, thanks everyone, bye!" I literally said, "Awww!" He's just far too precious.

I saw Conor perform around that time in the back of a small bar in Pigalle a few hours after a gig at La Cigale. This was so beautiful and touching, I still rembember that set like it was yesterday almost 7 years later.

[@wolfis09]

Quite frankly incredible... He's so good

[@butterfliesinreverse]

You can tell that he really feels his music and puts his emotions into every song. Its beautiful to see that he is very passionate and the lyrics are amazing.

[@mizzomiz]

Wow thanks for all the passion expressed and captured here :)

[@TeeheeMahn]

So glad I found this again xx

[@pugggs]

glad i stumbled on this guy's stuff... fantastic lyrics.

[@AnthonyPetrone]

Goddamn, that ending was SO good.

[@milqui13]

Oh My FREAKIN' God, this is amazing!

[@margaritapayne5803]

Awesome band

[@hassanqayyum8954]

Amazing lyrics

[@Nickee_Sonicjinn]

I adore his singing face! :)

[@EliaseViao]

Thank you for that. and also thanks for having wonderful taste in music. between him florence and the machine and Cloud cult, I just had to subscribe xD

[@medusamoon]

Amazingly talented...wow! :@}

[@kexp]

@GLeNss, he does actually perform with others occasionally, so Villagers might be just him or him and a band. We just wanted to be clear for people searching for either his name or "Villagers".

[@SarahGlassmusic]

ah amazing. so technical

[@lisasfanno1]

indeed :D

[@Calamaistr]

rising star imo, great instrumentalist, great ideas, great harmonies. :)

[@Calamaistr]

would do well as a track in the walking dead series while on the road now that i think of it.

[@jdkit]

Hes well risen mate. A few top albums already

[@bonanahh]

@guitarsticker1 He steps back from the mic so his voice is quieter.

[@evon2033]

Kinda weird how conor o'brien and conan o'brien are one of my favourite people

[@AFACOfficial]

He just has really good mic control. No effects required =]

[@EliaseViao]

BalconyTV is another good place. Look them up

[@bryanblaak]

@Condortheburninator you can actually purchase rubber covers. helps with feedback

[@pruntyfinbar]

Lyrical Genesis

[@guitarsticker1]

@bonanahh Yea but it sounds like an effect, not that it just got a little quieter.

[@guitarsticker1]

how does he change is voice like that on the "almost home halfway" part!? 0.0

[@countyrats9422]

the Am to Gm13 or whatever twats me everytime

[@ThePedosexy]

@OceanPeace3 that really is highly debatable. I feel sorry for all the people that think this shit is actually music and good at that

[@liedowninthelight]

@madeyes4u conors voice is a bit higher isn't it.

[@brassmonkeyweather]

conor got a new guitar?!

[@Condortheburninator]

Question: why is the hole in the guitar covered?

[@guitarsticker1]

@MikeNolan321 it sounds like they did something to it....

[@Lauraatje01]

@Scoob505 You can't compare Villagers en Kaiser Chiefs at all. So you must not do that. We are now here for Villagers, so it doesn't make any sense to bring the Kaiser Chiefs up at this point. But besides that: there's nothing wrong with Kaiser Chiefs. There's more depth in their songs then you might think.

[@analogasmr]

I wonder if people ever confuse him with Conor Oberst? ....Personally, this dude is way better.

[@JasonMccoylv]

Amazing. Played this on my Saturday night twitter playlist. Follow me via twitter /Jacemccoy . And feel free to check out my playlist. Thanks for sharing this.

[@alexanderlajeunesse]
