Lyrics:
its been a while now, whats up with this?
guess im still in the middle of the abyss
some waking moments a little too much
recurring, give me a break, they weren’t enough
holding on getting through the best I can
my other timeline comes back again
the one where you never went away
and from high I fall awake
these dreams are killing me
these dreams are killing me
theres no way these colors are real
yet I’m there happily, I fall for them still
then sun through windows is shining gray
proceed to feel the weight of a normal day
holding on getting through the best I can
my other timeline comes back again
the one where you never went away
and from high I fall awake
these dreams are killing me
these dreams are killing me

Sam Wilkes is an absolute machine.
Seriously. It's like he stuffs us all in his pocket.
I completely agree. Another beast of a musician is Rai Thistlethwayte on keys
my gf calls him the pigeon cuz he head always bobbin but to me hes the goat.
Yep. As a mediocre bass player this just makes my fingers twitch to see if i can follow his groove.
Sadly, no.
I have no idea about bass playing, but its so wholesome him being smiling always, it makes every music video even better 😁
Louis quietly becoming one of the most prolific and talented musicians of our generation.
its crazy its only been 13 years since I first heard him with Below The Valleys. feels like a lifetime
Louis Cole is cementing himself as one of the all time best musicians on Earth. Thank you for this gift, Mr. Louis Cool.
He's a great tile-layer.
@@jackisgallant thank you for catching that lmao
I would love to see a Louis Cole + Bill Wurtz colab
Nah he’s the best on planet X.
I agree with you !
We're hitting his peak era. These last 3 tracks have been unreal, one after the other.
I agree. Its a little unreal how great each of these singles have been, this is gonna be a special album
Listen, I know that every time I hear Louis Cole I say that this is peak Louis Cole… but oh my god you guys, I think this is peak Louis Cole.
Agreed, these mixes with the orchestra have been incredible. Can't wait for the album.
Pedro's section really gives this a Steely Dan Reelin' in the Years feel
Came here to compliment how much he plays like Elliott Randall. Brilliant stuff!
Dude I just commented without reading your comment before but that's exactly how I felt! That's crazy
I think Louis has been listening to a bucket load of ‘Dan and Don in recent years - some of his tracks could have come from a lost Donald Fagen album!
God, depression and anxiety has never sounded so beautiful. Thanks Cole and company.
It's never sounded so happy! Strangely happy and upbeat.
Cringe
@@AdamFontenet lol this guys never had depression before. Laugh.
@@NZMPlays Who you talkin about?
@@ejb7969 the guy saying my comment was cringe. Not you you’re kin
I don't know what it is, but practically every song that Louis makes, at some point, moves me. Thank you. I'll stay with the mystery.
"Its my favorite mystery"
The mystery of a burning fire
I think that's Louis goal and he nails it
Louis Cole is the only artist whose songs I can add to my playlist even without listening to them, and I won't be disappointed.
my emotional journey listening to Louis's music is perfectly demonstrated by Sam Wilkes' facial expressions
There's no musical project out there quite like that of Louis Cole and the brilliant collaborators that have lifted this music to our ears.
This song hits extra hard for me because these dreams are killing me. I've been on a medication for nearly nine months that gives me vivid, bizarre dreams and nightmares every night, where those I've lost haven't gone anywhere, and I wake in a state of indescribable, unbearable confusion, and renewed grief. And I can't get off the medication until several very uncertain things change.
Some people misunderstand the simplicity and straightforwardness of much of Louis's writing. Sometimes it's just saying precisely what it's saying and it shouldn't be anything else for the sake of anybody else.
I am so glad to live in the same timeline as Louis Cole.
I feel grateful for all those serious looking people who, for one reason or another, at one point in their life decided that "I will learn how to play the flute", or "I guess I'll practice violin alone in my room for hours and hours" .. so now we can listen to the results of all those decisions. So thanks to those serious looking people
So happy to see Rai Thistlethwayte back on the keys and on stage!
Happy to see there's dedicated Sam Cam
When I found Louis Cole, I was like “finally something that is very unique but also approachable.”
I had the exact opposite reacting coming from first hearing him from Clowncore
@@mikehall4730 CC is part of it!
Unique=the only one
It can't be very the only one
@@dewimatthews6037 find a modern pop band that has a full orchestra?
Let it happen is pure genius. I can’t stop saying it. ☮️
I totally agree with you. It's a masterpiece.
One of my favs by Louis
Its a live version of Let it happen coming soon?
@@SebaBuenoHaceMusiquitaJijiji yes, an orchestral version will be on the album
@@SebaBuenoHaceMusiquitaJijiji 1:55
I can't believe I'm gonna see this album played live in Amsterdam in October.
See you there
Goosebumps. I needed this right now. Stay strong y'all
Goosebumps Cosmic Timing Squad 🤝
Legend. Took my sister, who not only had never heard of him, but listens exclusively to 80's pop music, to watch him live last year. I knew there'd be long periods of instrumentation and whatnot, so wasn't sure how it would go down. She loved it. To me, that's proof that Louis Cole and his fellow musicians are top bananas.
80’s pop listener here. He also jives with my music taste. There is a lot of synth, cool bass lines, and I love the horn section.
I love how BoC it gets right at the end. I'm thankful for Louis Cole and all of the amazing musicians that stand behind him in this, an interesting time to be alive where any music one desires is a white noise that almost cancels itsef out. Where some of the greatest players and composers ever to live, live now but it can be (ironically) exponentially harder to get to them. I appreciate that these individuals care to bring the craft forward in decades where it seems like those attributes are less valuable. It's like a "screw you, I'm going to do it anyway" vibe and I like that.
boards of canada?
@@kingcyrusking Yup!
Louis Cole Always makes me smile. Jack Skellington would be proud.
I'm trying to read all of your comments but having trouble seeing because of tears in my eyes. Only discovered Louis and Genevieve earlier this year. Saw them live in Chicago. I suspect everyone here is struggling trying to find the words to describe his musical beauty and power. I have been a musician 50+ years and there's very little that moves me as much as Louis. Lord.
This shit is unreal. I feel bombarded with thousands of emotions at the same time.
A big masterpiece with "Things" melancholic vibes... I love Pedro's solo
This is the best guitar part in any Louis Cole song I’ve heard since Money
Pedro Martins is probably the closest current thing possible to having Allan Holdsworth on call. He's really terrific and it is nice to hear the guitar featured this way.
I'm a sucker for the solo in Do Hot Girls Like Chords? It always reminds me of Zappa for whatever reason
Is the solo an overdub? Not only because it sounds weird, but it also kinda looks weird
Come on, that was agonizing. As great as all other musicians in his band are, I never heard a decent guitar player with Louis Cole.
@@stanvanillo9831 If we figure out which concert this take is from, I might be able to help. I've got this song on video in my phone from 4 concerts.
the best music ever made is being made today. thank God.
🙌🙌🙌
it sounds like a modern day steely dan. I love it.
If Stevie Wonder and Steely Dan had a baby, it would be this song. Love it
Pedro is absolutely murdering those verses, jjjEEEEzus
god damn the guitar during the verses ring so good
yes bro fax
Hitting the perfect calming neurons in what's left of my brain. Love it!
his voice 🥺
dude. get this to the top. y'all gotta really listen.
the performance pedro martins put in here is unbelievable
The lyrics are a perfect blend of simple beauty and existential terror… classic Louis
I'm just so happy to be still discovering good musicians in this decade. New voices that have something to add while in conversation with the past. Louis Cole, Genevieve Artadi, everybody at Brainfeeder and your collaborators, this orchestra. I listen and I can believe. This is the redemption of art. Art redeems humanity. You are winning for all of us.
No the boomers say music is dead and they are always right
ORDER. THE. ALBUM.
It's important.
It’s always a pleasure to hear what Louis Cole is cooking.
I Love the whole gang ! It’s like a family thing how he includes everybody !
Hell Yes. Louis remains on unbeatable form.
im so glad our Sam is getting so much love. he is Sam and Louis is Frodo.
Sam’s joy is infectiously unparalleled 🥲
Sam is soooooo good. Totally in the pocket. His groove is infectious.
Knower/ Louis Cole/ genevieve artadi are the future of music and the future is now
Unreal song, unreal performance, unreal mix. Thanks as always, Louis. And shouts to Sam who has become my all-time favorite bassist. Love always.
It’s happening
I know you, youre piano player youre beast
its happening
@@phononmusic phonon is here... everyone back your bags
It’s happening!! 😃
It's so happening
These 3 tracks are astounding. Have ordered the album and travelling from UK to Holland for the live show. Wish you were in London too hut what the hell - neither my wife nor 17yo daughter have been to Amsterdam before so we're super stoked. Incredible work Louis and team (and Sam must be enjoying this gig more than any other bassist enjoyed their gig - in history).
pedro really elevates this already amazing piece. love it
Only three tracks in and this is my favorite album of all time.
this has been one of my favourite songs i have ever heard for quite a long time
thank you for letting us enjoy this on hq, this is phenomenal
pedro! oh yeah, oh yeah! this is the next level!
Louis singing got to the next level. Great!
Louis Cole always seems to coincidentally just know what to say and how to say it, like he's doing a soundtrack for my life. I don't know why this phenomenon keeps occuring. This song was all the feels and then it concludes with a shot of motorway in my home country. Everything he does always hits.
Maybe he is like us one of the real humans
@@SebaBuenoHaceMusiquitaJijiji 100% agree.
Another Day, Another *BANGER* from Louis Cole 📀
Orchestra: Disney movie ending
Choir: Beautiful and ethereal
Lyrics: Pain, anxiety, and loss
Guitar: y'all like Jazz Fusion? Yeah you do.
Bass: Just cause you're ugly-crying doesn't mean you can't shake it, shake it, do that funky dance.
Genuinely believe that he is the best. Yea, he is...he's the best. Everything he does absolutely blows me away. It just hits different. Wonderful. Thank the musical gods for Louis Cole. Aaaaaamen.
Class personified
absolutely
Musically this feels like Things pt 2, especially compared to the live version from the 2019 album, with the drums being practically identical. Things is my favourite LC track; he's an absolute ballad monster and this song is a stunning reimagining.
Getting to experience things like this is what makes life worth living, i sit here with a huge smile, tears streaming down my face, such beautiful music like this hits me straight to the core!
That was a nasty guitar solo
WHAT THE FUCK!!!
Pedros solo!!!!
Amazing - the nerd in me can’t help noticing that on the outro the film has him driving on the left hand site and I think it’s where the roads merge in at the bottom of the a1 near London as I think the cameras match but happy to be corrected - can’t wait to see him back in London in September I have tickets !
Another blissful masterpiece.
I wish I could've gone to this. First concert I have said that about in 30 years
Phenomenal!
That bass player is PROPER dialled in.
Absolutely gorgeous. Love the metric fakeout in the beginning too.
There’s also a key fakeout since the string arpeggio by itself implies the song being in A major, but when drums and bass kick in it’s clearly in D major
Sam's bass tone is so clean that I now compare all others to it. The balance is so so good, too.
that gallop, the Denny Diaz/steely D solo…great piece, thank you Louis
Binney just keeping that reed moist for the next epic solo
Pedro DESTRUINDO na guitarra ! Bom demais ! Louis, you're the freaking best man ! Just better and better music
The bass is a godsend
First time listening to this song today after sleeping in on a Saturday. It's good to know I'm not the only one who has recurring dreams/nightmares about their ex. Literally just had one this morning 😢
That outro is gorgeous
Fuensanta 🥹
Love Her
Sounds like Lewis Taylor playing a Bee Gees sound in the best way possible love it.
dreams = killing me
these releases? = resurrecting and lifting me to new heights
12/10, im glad you never pumped those breaks
I'm feeling those feelings
Sameee😭 but it’s ok just keep pushing
The level of musicianship is untouched
it's like he can read what's going through my head. thank you for another beautiful piece (my mom is now a fan too!)
I love louis cole.
PEDRO GODDAMN MARTINS
I'm in awe of the talent here. The writing, the playing, the singing, the subtlety.
Thank you Louis, yet again!
Perfect.
Thank you for picking up the torch all these years, great things happening.
Getting over a breakup and this hit hard. In a good way. Thanks Louis.
Hanging On Vibes ON
No one commenting on how HARD it is to play the melodic line the orchestra plays at the beginning and throughout the song. Kudos to them!
DAMN that solo
Wow what an arrangement
Sick!
the guitar on this wow
I can't wait to see this live in Groningen!!!!!
Same!!
String arrangement is gorgeous. Gorgeous!
Ok, just like the previous tunes, this is so damn perfect! The orchestral harmonies and melodies are incredible. Wait… all of this song is!
The nostalgic feeling hits me right in the
god damn it
unreal
Yes. Real music.
Louis, you and your mates are the GOATS.
so beautiful... and everyone of them an amazing player and singer ...can't tell you how much I love Louis Cole
omg. What an outstanding piece of music!!! 🤯
I'm so happy every time we get new songs or videos. Keep it up Louis, you're great.
Amazing...I don't really know what else to say. Louis Cole is insanely talented and able to take music in directions I wouldn't expect which is quite rare these days.
Since 2 years, i'm falling in love of his amazing voice ❤️
Love from France
