    Robin Pecknold is one of those dudes that just has pure talent emanating off of him.

      or as their original producer Phil Ek said upon meeting Robin "it was obvious he had talent coming out of his ass."

      I really didn’t have my hopes high AT ALL seeing this as my first fleet foxes video. I only know this song of theirs and I thought no way in hell are they going to get the grandeur, mixing, and band sync. Just wow they really did it full justice

  • @memalley
    @memalley Před 2 lety +16

    saw this tour live. its incredible how the bass player sings dual-lead vocal basically the entire set. dude is such an integral part. they only show it a few frames this video but dude sings on 90% of the parts.

    It'll be a long time before I get over how beautiful this song is, how some songs you just enjoy and that's it but this one, among few, is a song that truly fulfills your soul or spirit too.

    • @nicktoothpick9970
      @nicktoothpick9970 Před 7 lety +2

      Wenz Murillo I agree on your distortion comment, but are you really going to say all their songs sound the same? The only way one could confidently say that is if they havent adequately listened to their music. Give Helpless Blues a go, listen to the whole album. I promise you won't come back and say they all sound the same.

    • @wenzmurillo1859
      @wenzmurillo1859 Před 7 lety +5

      Hmm. At what point did I say that their songs sound the same? I love Fleet Foxes and is one of my all time favorite bands and I've listened to all of their songs and album so you don't have to tell me to listen to Helplessness Blues because I have. Countless of times. You clearly misunderstood my comment. What I meant with 'how some songs you just enjoy' is that there are some songs (not Fleet Foxes' songs at all) that are enjoyable but that's it, not like Third of May which is just fulfilling to a great extent.

    I had been homeless for months when this album dropped. Chester Bennington had just killed himself and I was on a similar path. I had to shove a needle full of heroin into my body every 12 hours just to be able to stand up. I can't ever explain how much this song made me happy when I was almost 100% sure that the world was nothing but fucking bullshit. Thank you Robin. Love you dude.

    Light ended the night, but the song remained
    And I was hiding by the stair, half here, half there, past the lashing rain
    And as the sky(e) would petal white
    Old innocent lies came to mind
    As we stood, congregated, at the firing line
    Night ended the fight, but the song remained
    And so I headed to the wall, turned tail to call to the new domain
    As if in the sight of sea, you're suddenly free, but it's all the same...
    Oh, but I can hear you, loud in the center
    Aren't we made to be crowded together, like leaves?
    Was I too slow?
    Did you change overnight?
    Second son, on the other line...
    Now, back in our town as a castaway
    I'm reminded of the time it all fell in line, on the third of May
    As if it were designed, painted in sand to be washed away
    Oh, but I can hear you, loud in the center
    Aren't we made to be crowded together, like leaves?
    Was I too slow?
    Did I change overnight?
    Second son, for the second time...
    Can I be light and free?
    If I lead you through the fury will you call to me?
    And is all that I might owe you carved on ivory?
    But all will fade. All I say. All I needed
    As a flash in the eye, I wouldn't deny, all receded
    Life unfolds in pools of gold
    I am only owed this shape if I make a line to hold
    To be held within one's self is deathlike, oh I know
    But all will be, for mine and me, as we make it
    And the size of the fray, can't take it away, they won't make it
    I was a fool
    Crime after crime to confess to
    But I hold the fleet angel, she'll bless you
    Hold fast to the wing. Hold fast to the wing

  • @guyvandermire4146
    @guyvandermire4146 Před 3 lety +10

    This is one of the greatest seven and a half minute songs ever recorded; reminiscent of some of the longer songs on Joanna Newsom's third album Have One On Me. Is it a coincidence then that this is also a third album? I feel many bands' third albums often deviate from their first two, going in a bold new direction and, despite being sometimes divisive among diehard fans, being as equally brilliant as the bands' earlier work but in a more progressive way. Examples: Jawbreaker (with 24 Hr. Revenge Therapy), Archers Of Loaf (with All The Nation's Airports), Sunny Day Real Estate (with How It Feels To Be Something On) and Rainer Maria (with Look Now Look Again). Even Beirut's third album The Rip Tide could be said to be an example of this, as it was somewhat criticized by the band's die hard fans for being less epic and poppy than The Flying Club Cup, but also celebrated by many for those same qualities. Likewise, while we are discussing modern Indie Folk bands, I would again compare the Fleet Foxes' album progression to Joanna Newsom's. While the earlier two albums were different between both artists, I would say that The Crack Up is to the Fleet Foxes what Have One On Me is to Joanna Newsom. They are different yes, but they both go in a new artistic direction from both artist's first two albums. Then, with each artists' fourth album, there is a shared return to poppy song structure and a shying away from epic artistry. The Fleet Foxes' Shore and Joanna Newsom's Divers both are a return to a poppy shorter songs, but also a step forward artistically, as the depth presented in the respective third albums is still largely there. Yes, there are some trends here.

    Third of May / Ōdaigahara
    Fleet Foxes
    LYRICS
    Light ended the night, but the song remained
    And I was hiding by the stair, half here
    Half there, past the lashing rain
    And as the sky would petal white, old innocent lies came to mind
    As we stood, congregated, at the firing line
    Now, back in our town as a castaway
    I'm reminded of the time it all fell in line, on the third of May
    As if it were designed, painted in sand to be washed away
    Oh, but I can hear you, loud in the center
    Aren't we made to be crowded together, like leaves?
    Was I too slow? Did I change overnight?
    Second son, for the second time
    Can I be light and free?
    If I lead you through the fury will you call to me?
    And is all that I might owe you carved on ivory?
    But all will fade
    All I say
    All I needed
    As a flash in the eye, I wouldn't deny, all receded
    Life unfolds in pools of gold
    I am only owed this shape if I make a line to hold
    To be held within one's self is deathlike, oh I know
    But all will be, for mine and me, as we make it
    And the size of the fray, can't take it away, they won't make it
