Young the Giant - Firelight (In The Open)

[@lucaskamal8094]

This is what happens when you combine raw talent, meaningful lyrics and beautiful music.

[@unknownff1316]

Raw talent??? Hahaha kid

[@patricktimberman1100]

Ya know I’ve been trying all this time and I didn’t think of trying any of those. Good looks

[@xJacquelineBx]

ive heard this song a million times but the melody still gets me thinking "this is the most beautiful thing ive ever heard" every single time

[@grandmastersmyth]

Same

[@floridahippyman1984]

That’s what I was thinking today lol

[@andreabellini6796]

You aren’t wrong

[@arushigupta4235]

Seven years later, and this is still gold.

[@Jessssssssica]

9 years strong.

[@soccerbaby7710]

No one is the music industry right now can match Sameers vocals, he is just on another level. I am proud to be a fan of this band.

[@StephenGoodrickJr92]

Look up Fairweather band...the dude sounds just like him

[@carlossaucedo9739]

This comment still aplies in 2020.

[@rafaelcbm]

Caleb Followill

[@jacobhensley8614]

Sameer is amazing but I think Conor Mason is undeniably the best right now. And shoutout Joe for the amazing lyrics too;)

[@tanya.2365]

I remember listening to this song at their concert and just looking up at the stars. Everything was okay and peaceful for a moment in time.

[@ashlilopez13]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@andreabellini6796]

Their music honestly makes my life better

[@metroact2117]

When he sings, "Lay down by the firelight" I swear it almost makes me nauseous from the way it touches my soul.

[@beccataylor2589]

Music makes you want to keep living

[@gabrielleseok9445]

When Francois, Eric, and Sameer harmonize together, it's sounds like the world just falls into place.

[@jayvintus7498]

That's superposition😎

[@Amethys12]

I agree wholeheartedly

[@Brentmovson]

In the open acoustics! Bring them back guys!!! LONG time fan. I watched you guys when there were only 50 people in the crowd in the bay area!!!

[@Nino244]

His voice is so calming and at the same time it's tearing my heart apart.

[@xJacquelineBx]

Nienke Timmermans wow yes you're right!

[@linahorn6483]

Couldn’t have described the feeling any other way

[@TejaSathi]

How do they DO that? It's mesmerizing.

[@casslowry6225]

I used to listen to this every night to help me fall asleep when my anxiety was at my worst

[@dawncase8575]

I'm sorry, I understand. I think I did too. I've always dealt with it.

[@itsizziman]

...this is the only band that can relax me and just make me feel happy about life!

[@DamonRennaker]

Look up the Maine!

[@christinel.4827]

Gives me the chills... Makes me cry... Such beauty in its simplicity. What more can I say?

[@bocofsa]

Yeah, just simple and perfect

[@christianspringer2433]

The pure intimacy of this song and the way they perform leaves me with goosebumps.

[@hezaz4991]

crying so hard now, remind me of my dad who passed away year ago and not having a chance to say goodbye ;'( anyway beautiful lyric and song!

[@jeanamillis3078]

There’s no way ever that I could get sick of listening to these in the open sessions 🥰🥰🥰

[@shannamagdalene6695]

My 14 month old son has LOVED this song since he was about 6 months old. From the first time he heard the first few notes of the song, his eyes got very big and his ears pricked up and it’s the only tune that will calm him other than my singing when he’s upset. Thank you, Young the Giant for your awesome music!

[@DomenicPetrino]

Without a doubt the best band in the world at the moment, with the best voice.

[@sharonfieldstone]

I've played this three times already, in succession. So beautiful.

[@benscofield8689]

I love these stripped down versions. They seem so much more personal.

[@javierestebanmora5724]

I feel like I were walking in the forest then starts rain and the drops fall into my forehead as I lie down to see the sky. So emotionalllll

[@VinylCollectorJames]

just so gorgeous. I have no words

[@heavengallegos826]

I love how all the sounds come together perfectly.... like music from heaven

[@christiwilliams8457]

Not just the best songs on "Mind Over Matter," but one of the best rock songs ever, just imho.

[@otherperspectives1901]

All ❤. The only thing keeping me sane in this lockdown is this band. Oh I am grateful for this music

[@yesickamata1905]

I'm in tears again.

[@traderhoe]

i come back to this video once or twice a year and it always feels like i’m hearing it for the first time

[@catramax]

This is one of the most amazing performances ive ever seen by the way

[@elleinadamoako]

Why are they not more popular!? They're so amazingly awesome at what they do

[@jabaloubusa4561]

Am i the only one still listening to this in 2015 and still getting the chills

[@jaynine4813]

+Jabalou busa I'm waiting for them to do Camera in the open. I need it. Haha.

[@joeInterpol20]

+Jabalou busa fr

[@MsMinecraftLife]

+Jabalou busa I honestly think these guys have the best music in their genre, and they have made a hippy path in everyone hearts. If you think of the meanings of these songs it makes you love life about 100x better.

[@teri5719]

+Jabalou busa i love them :'''''(

[@eddieperez6929]

naych

[@IvannaAvina]

is there anything more beautiful than this

[@doreenr7450]

art exhibit

[@vtecIntegra88]

literally rediscovering inspiration for music with these guys. so much love for this.

[@eddieperez6929]

me and you man, me and you!

[@catramax]

Francois thoooooo. His voice is rarely heard but I can just tell it's beautiful. Wonder if he'll ever feature more than usual in a song

[@BUcKeyEsAtOHioSt]

Listen to Waves by YTG live. Francois' backup vocals in the chorus are stellar.

[@ashlilopez13]

Amerika

[@wensoto3507]

I love all the comments here, the fans of young the giant are just goldddddd, I'm in love of all this community full of kindness and support to the band

[@endalanefarm]

This was on my tv, which I had fallen asleep in front of, and it woke me. I was so grateful to have the ability to back it up and hear all of it awake.

[@26reinventlove]

Does anyone else think Firelight sounds like the prequel to Islands? Like he runs away to be with this girl, but then in the end she doesn't wait for him.

[@landsharkofdoom]

I mean... This is so good it makes me dislike other things I normally like.

[@SwanginSpurs]

Sameer's combination of feeling and control in this performance is stunning

[@chrisakersmusic]

One of the most hauntingly beautiful songs I've heard. I listen and watch as shades of years gone by wash over me in waves.

[@RedeemedRose1]

my favorite on the album :D

[@PrincessIgna]

There is a peace in my soul.

[@aimeeanastacio3579]

this brings about peace and comfort to me

[@Gvcp117]

This is the best song i've heard in a while

[@LINX29X92]

Saw them last summer in Chicago, fireworks were going off felt like I was in some hippie love trip but with out the lsd lol was pretty eargasmic performance though

[@q.c.key7044]

Love these guys, they are a blessing to the world

[@lafemmerun]

this is the most beautiful thing i've seen or heard in a while

[@gogogoode]

my goodness, that voice is heavenly

[@Paulogy]

I don't know what else you need to see to know Young the Giant is the real deal :-)

[@CFL0]

his vocals, ugh his vocals... but the guitar companion too, I watched this like bored in the beginning and suddenly I was hooked, and felt it.

[@dannyjameson1980]

Doesn't get much better than this, musically or lyrically.

[@anthonylalli3186]

The chemistry in this band. They're fucking amazing man.

[@isabelvasconcellos98]

You have to put the In the open sessions on spotify!!!!!!!

[@vilAvain]

one of my all time favorite song....

[@matthuber6270]

̶ ̶C̶r̶o̶s̶s̶m̶y̶h̶e̶a̶r̶t̶ ̶ I want you to know that I've been seeing your comments everywhere I go. Found you on a miniature tigers video a few days ago.

[@cciara19]

This is a very compelling performance, I was genuinely taken somewhere else when listening. When it ended I just let the silence ring out and had to lay here for a moment. Every sound these guys fabricate fits together like some kind of audible inter-cosmic puzzle. With artistry like this you all deserve much happiness/well wishes/adoration! Thank you for putting this out into the world

[@ashlilopez13]

❤❤❤

[@guido3321]

totally amazing version of this song. Sameer nailed it, what a voice

[@danielcontreras3154]

What a song

[@KristiEnigl]

This songs gives me chills every time and especially played acoustically....

[@redflare100]

Payam is an amazing bassist. His bass lines are incredibly artistic and catchy; Especially on the track "Your Side". I'd have to say he's one of my favorite bassists. :)

[@CarolsVideos]

I love their slower stuff... Typhoon is one of my favorite songs and this one is pretty high up there too. It's so relaxing and his voice is so smooth.

[@CeruleanAnthracite]

What about Islands?

[@michaelpatterson738]

Seeing them Aug 24 - San Diego with my favorite girl in the whole wide world, (my daughter).......BBB seats....should be fabulous.....really love these songs from In The Open

[@pproferes]

Their simplicity is utterly COMPLEX

[@taylormarberry6402]

This gave me goosebumps. Incredible.

[@myvalley109]

I think this is one of the best videos I've even seen/heard. Breathtaking! I won't die happy till I see them live

[@Tehutli]

One of the very few songs that transport you to somewhere you didn't know existed. Think about how many songs do just that.. not many.

[@aurumahina7616]

So real, raw and spiritual

[@sparkside217]

Waiting for Camera in the open...

[@pragyasingh2297]

oh my goodness you read my mind.

[@blaiquiri]

Favorite song on the album. I can't wait either.

[@emanuelzhimrules]

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ManjitGrewal1989]

Your voice sends chills down my spine. What an incredible song!

[@andreabellini6796]

This music is incredibly deep if you truly listen

[@bettywoodhouse9876]

There aren't any words good enough to describe the brilliance of this...

[@datspookywitch]

I’m in LOVE with them all

[@Spashaei]

this song is so beautiful

[@megustacantar310]

that was beautiful. when sameer and francois started singing together... ugh so amazing! buying mind over matter NOW

[@TheProsaicCult]

No you're not. This song is breathtaking in it's beauty. These guys are like magic.

[@TheSupaKman]

If beautiful could be defined in a song, it would be this song. I feel so calm listening to this. It's such a wonderful feeling.

[@SuperCableDawg]

Tell my son....my son has no't spoken to me for 17 years. I don't have much time left. I'll have them play this at my funeral...maybe he will hear it and understand I still love him.

[@cubworld]

LOVE this band!

[@williamritson4871]

These guys are on another level. They're all really, really talented. Quite rare to see a band in which every single member truly carries their weight. Beautiful, beautiful music.

[@milenanord6298]

I'm crying. You guys, I just can't even. I love you Young the Giant

[@ClissyRose]

jacob's guitar skills are mighty fine!!! aww cute little payam

[@hillarymekoyo4487]

In the open sessions are just the best

[@unlimitedbunnies3481]

This is the loveliest thing I've ever heard.

[@lourdesmartinez1305]

Música , sonido , voz relajante , sencillez , humildad , perfecto !!! Felicidades , bendiciones , hermoso grupo , bendiciones a sus familias .

[@jamilcharles9159]

They are so beautiful

[@ashlilopez13]

This song literally makes me feel like I'm in a dreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmmm 💚

[@sandraderalexan]

This is my favorite song

[@A2L124]

fave song of YTG....truly transcending!

[@13jkjkjk]

this band and this song are beautiful

[@majlife9460]

Love it! Can't wait to see you guys live in Dallas on Feb 14th!

[@MeganLarabee]

Cannot WAIT to see them again this fall at ACL. Such an under-appreciated band! These In The Open videos prove just how talented they all are.

[@arrow3079]

You know a band has extremely good songs when they can take everything they need to perform outside, and have it sound pretty much the same and have the same quality vocals and instrument sound. Every one of their songs is a masterpiece

[@paramoreluver677]

Insanely beautiful this band never ceases to amaze me

[@roch93]

Instruments (guitarists) are amazing at helping to create the atmosphere for the song, whether it's upbeat or calm and haunting like this

[@MonsoonWinds6]

They are magic. Pure audible gold.

[@Littlefoxhat]

FAVORITE! Gah I love this song!

[@blueskaee]

2024 coming back here again after long time. Still sounds beautiful as ever✨🤍

[@2014jansenemily]

Favorite song on the album by far. Beautiful

[@EVLizard403]

Simply....amazing

[@MrRiptape]

So Beautiful, I feel at peace.

[@peytonhanserd2024]

After 5+ years of this song being in my playlists, I can say it helps me get through lots. Just pulling out a guitar and shittily recreating it somewhat makes me remember to never take a moment for granted. “Lay down by the firelight, For all I know it is the last time”

[@maryglenndraper8753]

I have listened to this band almost everyday for 2 years and not once have I gotten sick of any of their songs!! they are PHENOMENAL!!!!
