So many people who I show this band to don’t get it. It baffles me every time.

[@jakesolo2872]

I know exactly what you mean. I’ve been trying to turn people on to them for years but only a few get it.

[@eliotcole663]

I’ve never said that about anyone, but Young Fathers, man... SOOOO underrated! I’m sure they’ll blow up if they’ll keep making such incredible songs!

[@eliotcole663]

I mean their energy is crazy ⚡️

[@ForsakenCowboy]

Well, they're a big part of the T2 soundtrack so...

[@sophiel8194]

Think you were right 😏

[@AMOW42]

literally watched this almost every day for months now

[@jigokuojisan994]

even better than the studio version

[@Afterlife-Boy]

i agree

[@montygamesful]

This version is so much more visceral than the studio version

[@goat3953]

So much better 💯

[@Atleast._]

Go check the Jools Holland live version, it's even more catchy :)

[@PZADaKillaBee]

one day this song found me. my life is not the same since then.

[@SeanFountain]

At 2:02, when it goes almost tribal, it’s one of the greatest things I’ve ever seen. Godly performance

[@RabjinMC]

It’s annoying how much better they are live.

[@haggish_]

[@maximdvorov4285]

This is also studio…)

[@clumsysandbocks5650]

3:28 Young Father assaults furniture.

[@w4drone720]

Ouch

[@andrespuerto9121]

Noticed that too, what da hell ¡¡¡

[@champochampo9135]

When I first heard 'Toy' as a single I gotta say I was a little disappointed, felt that 'Lord' and 'In My View' were much stronger songs. Having said that every time they play it live it blows me away - so much anger and energy it absolutely transforms the song.

[@erlineandrews]

Hip hop with rock intensity. 🙂
