This song is 14 years old. Man, life is falling through my fingers like wet cake. That’s the danger of getting nostalgic though, you’re reminded how quickly the present moment becomes almost a lifetime ago.

[@kellilowry4671]

Started listening to them when I was 16, an active addict & struggling to stay alive in high school…now a decade later I’m 3 years clean/sober coming back to them. Shit is wild.

[@TomaszDusic]

Similar here. Opiates for 7 years, then heroin for 6. Lost my 2 best friends along with over 5 people that I was associates of. Discovered Warpaint in the beginning of treatment, their voices, melodies and songwriting somehow helped keep me on the path. Listened them so many nights to fall asleep and keep the nightmares away. 5 years sober in September 2023

[@johnthorne4093]

I am grateful for your comeback. God bless you.

[@johnthorne4093]

Heartbreaking 13 years; you made it out. Please, stay strong. Know that people love you and care about you. God bless you.

[@Jacob-septica]

Stay strong stay blessed x

[@thelandesverrater2103]

Even after 11 years, this song still blows my mind ....... neverending story

[@felichagomez]

The Landesverräter I've been listening for about the same amount of time. Every time I'm in a music rut or don't want to pick up my instruments (just like the classics jazz, blues, classic rock) I always find myself coming back to this band for inspiration. Incredible musicians.

[@fraubeatrix1388]

I can totally relate!

[@flipnap2112]

every time I spin any song from them it immediately inspires me.. to write.. to listen.. to talk.. to be better and be nothing.. when I feel like time is so far ahead of me, they remind me that time is moving in the wrong direction and I am light years ahead.. thank you Warpaint for always being who you are. such a rare gem

[@aleksandralefearn3030]

💘

[@freebrainstorms]

It is not possible for me to get sick of this song. It's so perfect no matter what mood I'm in. True transcendence, these women are fierce, raw, and art in motion.

[@modernwarpaint]

This was a video that my KZbin algorithm suggested to me in 2012, right after a major breakup. I distinctly recall being mesmerized by the music immediately. That was the beginning of my obsession with Warpaint.

[@storiestellr]

Warpaint are just amazing

[@hinthecage4928]

this song and video is one of the most important works of art in my life. been listening to it for many many years. it‘s like magic is spilled all over me. it draws you in.

[@entool7]

Warpaint fills every cell of my body with love.

[@ronls3578]

Still one of my favorite Warpaint's songs. I'm so thrilled that they open their set list with Stars in 2022. Saw them twice in Europe last month and I could attend dozens of more shows !

[@AshleyRoth]

They are great. After the gig in AB, Brussels really obsessed. Playing all the time in my car.

[@timeanavratyil8373]

I always cry over this song even if I'm not sad, it's so beautiful!

[@gojump7]

It has a sound like if Mazzy Star and Slow Dive had a baby. Very glad I clicked!

[@slayer5813]

Yes I agree! Sounds like Hope's voice. I heard this on a "Revenge" episode (SE1-EP19) and immediately did my research that brought me here.

[@_TDS_]

@@slayer5813 I also found out about them by watching a tv show ! It was a CSI episode.

their music is hypnotic without the visuals but add visuals like this and wow

Didn’t realize it’s been 11 years since this song came out I’m still haunted by it just like the first time I heard it

This is my favorite Warpaint song. They played it at their concert last night and it was their first song and it stayed with me throughout the show. Iconic!

I'm pretty drunk at the moment. This song brings me to higher ground. It's like a powerful drug. The clip takes my breath away and fits the song perfectly.

[@javieralvarez1072]

you aober now?

[@susufierce8149]

I will be 60 (!) later this year & I love this! Timeless, ageless, hauntingly lovely... As long as there are more male bands and more male instrumentalists than women in both categories, I will do my best to advocate for female musicians, everywhere, every genre. I had my first gig at 17 (piano, pop at first, then jazz) and for decades, if I asked to sit in the question used to always be "What do you want to sing?" Well, sure there are lots of women singers but lots of us play instruments, too. These days, I'll be hearing "where's your axe?" more: Cool. Progress!!! So rock on beautiful, strong, ethereal women. BTW, I have the same criteria for "liking" a band, regardless of gender, they have to be good. These Women are amazing!

[@coninoss]

wtf has gender to do with beautiful beautiful music, get your crap agenda elsewhere

[@robertdevries1049]

I could watch this forever.

[@adh4024]

they used to have a male drummer but i think they sacrificed him in some pagan ritual to mother earth

[@grahamkristensen9301]

Nope, he joined the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Definitely. Im a witch myself and was iinstantly drawn to them. They became my favorite band and then they came to my city and I saw them live. Theyre definitely witches. All my witch friends love them too aha

[@el88997]

Oh dang. Saw tgem live a decade ago. Fantastic show.

[@fronesis01]

My last ex girlfriend used to hate them. We broke up for many reasons but I remember that she used to call them witches. Probably she is right their music is like a trance or spell for me.

[@larrysokoya4436]

This wonderfully blissful dreamy beautiful song makes me want to dance in the woods and sit on the moon.

[@kappe53]

I hope and i wish that their plays together for a long long long time............their is so much develelopment in her music, and so much individualism......please play a long time together

Desde que la conocí en aquel lejano 2009 esta canción suena siempre antes de que me vaya a dormir, un ritual que trasciende el tiempo y el espacio y pavimenta el camino que he de seguir... Las estrellas.

Amaaaaazing band. So so glad they came the scene.Got real deep substance and originality. Love their music and a mix of dark alternative styles from the likes of PJ Harvey, Radiohead, Bjork, Portshead, Massive Attack, How to Destroy Angels, The XX, Braids, Tricky, Unkle, AllFlaws

[@Sea_witch_]

they are so beautiful...and different from what we see nowadays i love this band.
