Woodkid feat. Son Lux - Central Park - Live at Montreux 15.07.2016

[@davidcoelho9891]

Still waiting this song to be on spotify and an album! It's just precious

[@RMSCWB]

Still waiting on Apple Music too.

[@dianagardner3906]

I agree! Is there even a music video for this song? I was trying to find out where it was born?

[@Onyx-_-liquor]

SAAME

[@afkaeska]

Please... Still waiting! It's the most beautiful line in it: Love is on top fucking pain

[@mattplickert7937]

Also still waiting.

[@claranyman5708]

Their voices go so ridiculously well together and that swell of violin strings is divine.

[@sashakubek7542]

Clara Nyman it's so beautiful that I cry every damn time I watch/hear this. woodkid and son lux are a perfect combo....you can see the pain in their eyes but they have an ability to channel feelings in the best way....music!

[@arianajq26]

From time to time I come back to this video, so I restore my faith in love, art, creativity and joy. Better times are ahead. Cause love is on top fucking pain.

[@fluttershy122345]

Still listening to this, I really can't even believe this is live. It's utter perfection. I had the honor of seeing Son Lux live, but had already liked Woodkid. I didn't know they sang together, its utter magic. I can't imagine how fantastic this concert was.

[@bloodelfreku]

I'm so jealous of anyone who got to go to this. I love Son Lux. The first song I ever heard by him was in a commercial, but I fell in love with it. And I've always loved woodkid. This would have been a dream come true.

[@nikohalinen6531]

Tried my best to transcribe the lyrics: Pocketed with holy pain windows alarms Like the other dirty vein in my arms For on a day like today There is only high other madness rains The million leaves on the Central Park trees are popping Open the champagne There’s too much joy there’s no stopping Love is on top fucking pain Yellow eyes on yellow lines where have you been? Mirror let me see my own face again For on a day like this day There is only sky the other madness rains The million leaves on the Central Park trees are popping Open the champagne There’s too much joy there’s no stopping Love is on top fucking pain The million leaves on the Central Park trees are popping Open the champagne There’s too much joy there’s no stopping Love is on top fucking pain But on a day like today There is only high another madness rains The million leaves on the Central Park trees are popping Open the champagne There’s too much joy there’s no stopping Cause love is on top fucking pain The million leaves on the Central Park trees are popping Open the champagne There’s too much joy there’s no stopping Cause love is on top fucking pain

[@abdallahkhaled2717]

Yeah fucking pain....

[@tobiaspedersen8333]

Ryan and woodkid their voices fits soo dang good together

[@MrJulioseto]

Son Lux, your voice is givin' me goosebumps... I can feel the pain. Just like in "EASY". Woodkid you just realised the impossible and give many people hope. Hope in what music is really. Beautiful.

[@brittat.5420]

Dieses Lied hat eine schmerzlich schöne Tragik, die mich umhaut, wann immer ich es höre- Woodkid und Son Lux - eine unglaubliche Einheit 💔. Wie kann man nur so wundervolle Musik komponieren!?! Und wie kann sie nur so unerkannt und unbekannt in Deutschland bleiben?!

[@batmanarkham0321]

Sehr berechtigte Frage!

[@emilynaert1466]

For those who are interested. The lyrics are based on the poems of Frederick Seidel’s Nice Weather

[@kevinroque838]

WHY IS THIS MASTER PIECE CONCERT NOT ON SPOTIFY???? THIS SONG MAKES ME CRY 😭😭😭😭😭

[@jacobrossak1084]

Youre like the only artist that names out every single person performing with you. Much respect

[@annacarotte]

I BEG YOU TO RECORD THIS MASTERPIECE! Your voices fit perfectly and the song is just awesome :o

[@aaronwinter7911]

u r literally watching a recording no?

[@ThisHandleIsNotAvailable.]

Very happy about this unexpected upload. Sitting in a hospital waiting for surgery, and this is making me smile.

[@M0oranshi]

Hope everything goes well for you!

[@Feuer75]

redd Greene Blue All the best to you and a quick recovery!

[@sandy434]

Good luck!

[@anasofia4068]

Good luck :)

[@KFlorent13]

Good luck dude !

[@Lotthawottha]

This is perfection. I was suddenly struck by a strong sense of sadness, wishing my dad was still here. It's been almost 19 years now since he died, and it feels like it just happened now. I'm bawling my eyes out and realise again how much I miss him. But on the other hand I feel some sort of calmness, and now I'm smiling. Aaaaah, the power of music... Thanks Woodkid, for being in my life and creating music that makes me feel like I'm floating in space while enjoying the beautiful view.

[@ajinkyabhasme]

This was so honest. Some songs just come from a pure place.

[@kurman5220]

Woodkid and Son Lux, best combination ever 😍😍😍😍i can listen it for thousand years!

[@ok43565]

Still hoping to hear this masterpiece on streaming platforms. This is probably my favorite song of all time.

[@Laribhaven]

My two favorite artists of all time. Singing... Together... I can die happy now!

[@internalexile]

Sublime and moving. I mean, strings will add emotion to anything but.. these guys really know what they're doing. First of many duos between these two I hope :-)

[@11eward]

So, two of my favorite singers get together, and it even exceeds my expectations, I have an eargasm right now.

[@thorstenbuschmeier9144]

The power of music. Incredible. So many emotions. This strings, damn.

[@denissidenko3481]

I am crying like a child, when I listen this song. It’s too much sensible for me

[@phodilus2141]

i just realised that i was living to watch this video all the time. now i have no purpose to live anymore. i mean my two favorite artists, what can happen better than this

[@ashram4069]

This song and this performance have been bringing me so much joy for so many years! Simply magnificent.

[@H2OFlows]

ive been blessed again this week.

[@fantasticmusicyoutube]

C'est beau!

[@volkerfunke7705]

Just discovered. Late but not to late. ♥ So beautifull. Thx.

[@archimedes5158]

Easy by son lux is one of my favorites and woodkid?! Oh my god this is a dream come true

[@anar2522]

seriously i need that version on spotify!!

[@arturrrrrrkato]

If i would have time michine, first thing i would do is go back to be in this concert. I was never so moved by music as while waching songs from this concert....

[@monpetitgraindesel6192]

woodkid y son lux, lo mejor del mundo

[@willhood4854]

sara isa así es :)

[@JorechDalc]

No conozco a Woodkid, pero amo a Son Lux :D

[@JorechDalc]

xD ayer me recomendaron una canción de Woodkid llamada "I Love You" y me gustó. Aún todavía no escucho más de él, ¿me podrías recomendar algo? A cambio, si te interesa, yo podría recomendarte "All The Right Things" de Son Lux. Es de las que más me gustan de él :D

[@radraaa]

Básicamente, Woodkid tiene sólo 1 álbum completo llamado “The Golden Age”, además de hermosas canciones como "Baltimore's firelfies", entre otros. Te recomiendo escuchar el álbum completo :)

[@АртемЮрченко-т4ь]

It paradise for my soul, now , thank you

[@berrycos9]

his timbre is so good to listen to

[@playstation414]

So he just announced a new album for 2020. I'm really hoping this song will be on there

[@lohengrin1960]

jus98 Oh yes, I Hope it too

[@DeLittleRebel]

Why would a song from 2016 be in his new 2020 album tho

[@phalanxiatheroan863]

He and son lux worked together a cpl times, I'm sure he learned a trick or two from him. Never release the track people most want. Hint, tease, flirt outrageously, but don't release it. All musicians need a "secret weapon for live performance" this was theirs.

[@arthurdias694]

Update: It isn't. S16 Track List: 1 - Golitah 2 - In Your Likeness 3 - Pale Yellow 4 - Enemy 5 - Highway 27 6 - Reactor 7 - Drawn to You 8 - Shift 9 - So Handsome Hello 10 - Horizons Into Battlegrounds 11 - Minus Sixty-One

[@VelvetItch]

He confirmed this song will never get a studio version, he believes that some songs don’t need to be print in media or get corrupted by labels, so the right time and place to listen to is in live performances, which make the event even more special

[@Lavonas]

This is a masterpiece!!! I sit here with tears in my eyes! THANK YOU!!

[@Eleensonge]

Inspiré par le poème "The Yellow Cab" de Seidel, un auteur américain. Le refrain chanté par Woodkid est en fait la dernière strophe de ce poème. "The million leaves on the Central park's trees are popping Open the champagne. There's too much joy. There's no stopping. Love is on top, fucking pain." Le premier des couplets chanté ensemble par Woodkid et Son Lux ("Yellow eyes on yellow lines. Where have you been? | Mirror let me see my own face again [...]") est aussi une reprise/référence au poème (plus précisement la troisième strophe "Yellow cab, yellow cab, where have you been? | I've been to the mirror to try to look in").

[@arianecorsia8174]

Bonjour Sego, je n'arrive pas à trouver le poème. Peux-tu m'aider? ça m’intéresse :)

[@teok7323]

merci c'est très intéressant

[@enant]

Please explain this in English, I'd love to know what "yellow eyes on yellow lines" means

[@lifeisajokechannel]

Filip Polasik this is a reference to the poem « Yellow Cab »

[@enant]

@@lifeisajokechannel Thank you

[@wayneburgess9716]

Majestic! Just cried listening to musical perfection.

[@diane8139]

Woodkid, Such deep voice, calm and soft and warm 😍😍😍

[@marilurollinstones5921]

The voice of de guy from Son Lux is unreal, I wish we could hear it more in his previous songs

[@ninaalfa797]

Wood kid you speak directly to my heart .. bless you

[@drinkzcoffee5183]

These two just blow my mind. Every time. I cannot get enough. They suck the marrow from my bones and pour life into my soul. ♡♡♡

[@MsJust1life]

BEAUTY. So beautiful that it makes me cry....

[@jennyfergonzalez7592]

The best of the best...💙

[@feeh4332]

two of the greatest artists of our time. i am crying

[@TenchuuKhanable]

So... after listening to this song numerous times I think I got it I think it's about a heavily depressive person vs. someone actually trying to enjoy life and its a back and forth between these two forces arguing over whether or not its worth living. Like "omg I can't sit straight anymore I want to kill myself" vs. "Look at that. It's all fascinating, you're gonna miss that while being dead"... I know I suck at this already, but - "open the champagne"

[@BaroqueKeyboardist]

Rather, I believe it's about how there is so much pain, suffering, and madness in the world, yet in the midst of it all, there is still so much beauty and joy. But at the same time, this joy distracts us from the madness going on in the world.

[@ButterflyEnte]

@@BaroqueKeyboardist i think you two are describing very similar things. Just with two different points of view

[@ksokohoko9081]

@@ButterflyEnte Well, obviously ^^ I think it's a really depressive feeling, the thing that hurt depressive people is happiness, all my life i was with depressive person (i'm not this old, but it was still rich), and they were all the same, people that can cry while saying about how the sky is beautiful, and this song is moving me because it's similar to this.

[@TheBorderHoppr]

@@BaroqueKeyboardist damn i thought it was about drug addiction, mainly something like meth that makes you super happy. “dirty vein in my arm” “theres too much joy theres no stopping” and “mirror let me see my own face again” “there is is only high, other madness reigns” idk tho obviously art is subjective

[@EDALLSANT]

I just need a new Woodkid album in my life...

[@sophiamanolova6821]

This is more than I can take I swear

[@zaneaustin365]

Unbridled creative talent on full display. No words. Just, thank you.
