Lyrics
They put me in a cage
To see what happens when
You put one in a cell
Without an escape plan
If I lose my mind
Before the first attempt
I’ll never be free again
The walls are made of glass
And they’re hard as stone
Come on take some pictures
With your high-end phones
Give me all your love
And share it with your friends
I’ll never be free again
I have all these dark dreams
They come down like concrete
For your entertainment
I’ll name it to tame it
Don’t turn the lights off
I barely understand
What I know
Is all quicksand
As the rain blows
Through the curtains
I am turning to set my eyes on you
Woke up next to you
I’ll name it to tame it
I hear a million voices
Laughing indiscreet
It’s how they enjoy
The blood spilled on the screen
Hey man, I've washed my face
I've kept my costume clean
I’m not a part of the scene
But all I thought I knew
Has been turned upside down
I don’t have a clue
What it means to drown
And what I mean to you
I’ll never figure out
All the noise in here got way too loud
We close a deal
In the ink-blue dawn
All is revealed now
We can’t be harmed
Soon I am leaving
Soon I’ll be gone
I don’t need reasons
To be alone

Their music is so raw and original. The sound is ever-evolving but it somehow still makes me feel nostalgic.
These guys are seriously underrated.
I agree 100%
@@Jean-uw4tz agreed 💯
Sounds a lot like Dermot Kennedy ... check him out
@@Jean-uw4tz mm fr 😌
Seriously underrated!
I'm so glad i randomly discovered this band!! I'm completely mesmerized by the live rookery tapes. the way they are recorded is so intimate and artistically masterful. so much talent amongst these guys its so impressive
Bro saaaame
Well said. Agreed 110%
Totally y with yall right now I'd love to see them live
Seriously though I love them
Just happened to me too!
So excited, just bought tickets to see these kids in Philly. I'm 60 and dragging my husband along😂I think we may be a wee bit out of place but I don't care. As long as I don't get trampled.
Well I am 62 and dragging my sister(who I am making drive) into Boston to see this month.. I live in Maine and haven't been to the venue there since high school!!😊
I had to get a refund because they changed the date and venue, they're now opening for Louis Tomlinson (who I don't know). Changed our tickets to now see them in NY!
We just saw them in Philly July 2023. First time I ever heard of them and we are all hooked.
Love Philly but it’s rowdy out there no doubt
The love of great music has no age limit. I’m 60 too and I love love love this band and song! ❤️
I can not describe how important for me they and their songs are

@@joelchurquina7849 urgh
tks I didn't notice
I feel you on this, it's the same for me. They are something else.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
This song in it’s new dress is so incredible!!! Can‘t stop listening in a never ending loop!!
Ich komme ja mal gar nicht mehr klar! Diese Version ist schlicht und ergreifend der absolute Wahnsinn. I‘m crying
Ich weiß echt nicht wann ich das letzte Mal so etwas geiles gehört habe... So mies gecatcht und abgeholt. Wow.

I saw someone wearing a shirt that only said 'what I know is all quicksand' on the streets of Germany. Typed it on my notes app. Glad I did.
I'm 65 and I listen to this band every night before bed. The harmonies, the lead singer, are simply fantastic.... Please consider coming to Vancouver BC Canada to do a concert at BC Place, we'd LOVE to have you.
I discovered them today and I’m left with no words. They’re out of this planet.
Bruh I discovered them around the same time as you, and i have to say I agree :)
Beautiful. Glad you too have the opportunity to enjoy. I’ve told the others although they are lost
They are good
They're actually from Hamm, Germany (kappa)
the vocal range on this kid is unreal
The transition to “we close a deal” is absolutely nuts
I love how he just let's go towards the end
He really is wonderful. If you haven't heard his cover of Life on Mars, you're missing something truly lovely! Such a voice, and soooo underrated!
Check out AnnenMayKantereit. Henning may has a really nice voice also they both did a version of Tom’s Diner together.
I need this NOW.
You right that's song what I need now
I think that the German accent is what I love. The pronunciation is so beautiful to my ears. I am mesmerized by it. Just love it
I prefer the south Louisiana accent
Agreed, also, the recording isn't too busy, I love the simplicity and complexity interwoven...
Yes! Me too! I think the German accent lends an ethereal quality to his voice.
I love how happy he looks while singing
2 years ago in Amsterdam I high fived Finn after the concert for doing a solid awesome job with the guitar. After seeing this video, I think its time for another high five. This time for the whole squad. Bloody brilliant. Might even watch it again while I'm waiting for my cup of tea to cool down.
There is so much going on in this comment 😂
Could this comment *be* any more british? lol
bekomme Gänsehaut jedes mal wenn ich das höre eyy ihr habt viel mehr likes und Aufmerksamkeit verdient💜💜😍
Alter Jungs. Mein Herz!
i’m already crying
same sis
This version of this song feels magical. My favorite Giant Rooks song 🥺
His voice reminds me of the trumpet, it has a sort of resonance and also a sort of tone that borders on becoming harsh, but with that same skill as the trumpeter, it's turned into a unique sound that you cannot call anything other than vibrant.
I can feel my hair on my whole body standing up right now.❤🥰😍 I'm so excited.🙏🙏
I too just found this group by accident. This by far is my most favorite arrangement of “quicksand.” I love them.
Only 2 Million views? This piece need more attention!
im 11 years old and i love all of these songs
You can really sense how deeply they love making music. Exceptional. One of my all-time favorite songs and I couldn’t be more happy to have experienced this in concert
This is so perfectly done. I could listen to a 15 minute extended version on repeat
Oh fuck, diese EP wird so so gut 🥰🥰🥰
They're so underrated and down to Earth it hurts. Can't wait to see you guys live :')
Sad i missed them in Nashville... id love to catch them live.
"What I Know Is All Quicksand Lyric"

It's how they enjoy the blood spilled on the screen

That down beat on the snare at 5:20 is pure gold
Ha! Was at 5:16 when reading this 🎶🎶
Yes, I love that down beat, my partner is a drummer and I’ve never heard a snare used like that.
A brilliant band!!
Allein dieser Titel ❤ dann die melodie + Stimme 🎉
I have to say that I’m obsessed with this band, for sure my new favorite band
Buralar değerlenecek yerimi alayım bari
I can't stop listening to this. It's incredible.
That jam at the last two minutes, to die for....
Ihr macht mich fix und fertig. Irgendwie ist das fast ein ganz neuer Song. Weiß gar nicht welche Version ich jetzt besser finden soll. Sind halt beide voll geil. Ich hoffe ganz dolle, dass wir uns Ende April in Prag beim Konzert sehen. Hoffentlich fällt es nicht wieder aus. Bis dahin bleibt gesund und weiter so.
soooo much talent, guys! the part that starts at 04:22 is FREAKIN INSANE!❤️🔥
This arrangement is my absolute most wonderful, best recording of theirs. Now there’s a bunch more but this arrangement is supreme. Well done, lads!
Absolute Gänsehaut! So schön zu sehen was Menschen komplett selber ohne Computer kreieren können :)
Absolut, endlich jemand der singen kann, Respekt. Das bestätigt auch die Tatsache, dass man dafür nicht schön sein muss, einfach nur gute Musik machen...die Jungs sind MEGA
@@yus3140 Finde die Jungs schon ziemlich attraktiv/schön :D
@linus350 mein Freund meint immer, dass er das mit Computer besser könnte. In diesem Moment denk ich mir dann immer nur, ja dann mach mal. Und sage, die Kunst liegt nicht darin, alles über PC zu machen, sondern wenn man es selbst mit Instrumenten macht. Weil über PC kann jeder. 🤣
@@nadinecordt7933 Dann hat dein Freund keine Ahnung von Musik. Es geht nicht darum etwas besser zu machen. Es geht um Gefühle die durch Musik übermittelt wird. :)
New fan 2023, going back to listen to everything now.
I am obsessed with this version of this song. I've been listening to it several times a day for weeks and it doesn't get old.
Two years ago, I discovered this song while stuck in a toxic marriage. Listened to it on repeat because I felt like the lyrics embodied my experience perfectly.
Two years later, I am listening to this song together with my new partner, happier than ever to be able to say to her that this is part of my history now.
to me the song is about having a gay sex experience but go you
Three years passed since this later piece was released and it’s still one of my absolute favourites 🫶
Look at all the comments! All very well.😍
I feel like such a proud mama right now.😭 That's giving me goose bumps! I cry, that's all.
This is the only way this song should ever be played!
i really love this band, i dont know why but frederick voice give me so peace, i really think this band is gonna be great
Correction : they already are
I agree
Dieser song ist phantastisch! Herausragende Talente!Und Stimme mit Wiedererkennungswert. 🤩💯%
The piano solo touches my soul. This song is SO beautiful. Greetings from Brazil, guys!
I was looking for videos about actual quick sand, and found this. I'm sunk in deep now!
Look at the singers face . Those smiles . He is so pleased with himself , and rightly so
If only I could put in words how much this video moves me
Oh, how much I love that piano part. 💛 I start melting In 4:25 and die in 6:35... 💛 Thank you for touching me so much with that! 💛
I was just searching for this comment
Gives me goosebumps and tears in my eyes , you can feel the emotion of the instruments from the artists ❤
Ein unglaublich guter Song wo einfach alles passt. Text und Beat harmonieren so unendlich gut. Kann es in Dauerschleife hören. Immer lauthals mitsingen und dazu tanzen. Wenn ein Lied das schafft dann weiss man das es ein wundervolles Geschenk ist. Dankeschön dafür @Giant Rooks. ♥
It's been two years??? Wow ! this one still hits different
Manche haben einfach nur Glück mit ihrer Stimme und ihrem Aussehen, und komponieren immer die gleiche Suppe, andere hingegen entwickeln sich stetig weiter wie ihr! Wie eure Songs von Song zu Song wachsen, ist der Hammer! Respekt für eure Arbeit und euer Einfallsreichtum!
Das hier, ist wunderschön :)
Der beste track. Die Wechsel sind der Wahnsinn und der absolut saubere Schluss. Jungs! Hut ab. :)
Meisterhaft, noch mal eine ganz andere Liga als die Studio-Version! War etwas enttäuscht, dass diese Version nicht live gespielt wurde
This is such a masterpiece especially that BRIDGE... OMG🤧! This song makes me want to cry and watch the sunrise while in a car on the highway.
In a pandemic he discovered Giant Rook, and it is art to listen to them
I randomly found you guys only about a week ago but I think it's safe to say that you're already one of my favorite bands. The music, lyrics, vocals are all just so perfect. I'm kind of in awe at your songwriting skills. ❤
Das war sowieso schon eines meiner Lieblingslieder, aber das holt mich nochmal ganz anders ab 🧯
Ich liebe diese Band ❣️
Die Stimmen, die Musik, die Gefühle, die Sie in mir auslösen ❤️
Ich freu mich so sehr Sie bald live zu sehen/hören 😍
One of my favorite songs ever
In concert he's like the energizer bunny hopping up and down the whole show
habe mich neu in eure musik verliebt
j'ai découvert ce groupe ce dimanche au festival la nuit de l'Erdre. Venue pour Lomepal, excellent, j'ai été bluffée par ce groupe. j'écoute en boucle depuis. merci pour la qualité vocale, musicale, l'attitude, un rayon de soleil !
This dudes ' voice is really great . ♡
And he is awfully cute too ;•)
Brilliant reworking of Quicksand
I have an out-of-body experience every time i listen after 5:20.
Just found you on TikTok. I’ve been smoking herb, cleaning my house, basking in the sun, eating ice cream and enjoying EVERY ONE OF YOUR SONGS!!! This song has been on repeat!
my ears BLESSED
This song is EPIC, and the arrangement so special!
Zeit lassen ist so wichtig bei Musik, und heutzutage so selten geworden. Unglaublich gut, intensiv. 03:20. Man merkt, wie wohl und sicher sie sich dabei fühlen. Geborene Live Band halt.
Beautiful song, beautiful lyrics, beautiful melody, beautiful rendition, beautiful composition and instrumentality, absolutely beautiful voice/ voices! ❤
Gänsehaut - zu dem dem letzten Part möchte ich einfach nur rennen..
How is that song not absolutely HUGE by now.... It's just amazing.
Ihr wisst gar nicht wie wichtig Ihr für uns seid !
Hmm so we just watched it...
I think its safe to say that this version is UNPARALLELED!!!
The sheer power of this song...
There aren't enough words to describe this performance's effect on me
Real Talk
Das ist soooo schön!!! Kann es gar nicht in Worte fassen!
Please, come to México in the futuro, your music is smazing
Sigamos pidiéndolo ,tal vez algún día se nos haga realidad ❤️
En mayo estarán en cdmx
Habe lange nicht mehr so etwas wunderschönes gehört. Ihr seid der Hammer!
5:20 FIRE !
Finally! Unique beautiful original music. Gorgeous. Thank you!
Was für eine wunderschöne Version 😍😍😍 Besonders der zweite Teil, einfach zum Treibenlassen und Träumen ❣️
Just makes you feel...
OMG😭😭😭😭
I'm addicted feel like I could listen to this song forever ❤🥺
Lecko Mio, ihr werdet mir langsam unheimlich - sooo hammer geiĺ!
I...
1.) love this song and band. Enough comments talking about how amazing they are
2.)love how the director/camera person of this video focuses on each artist in the band throughout the song... the song has each piece to be appreciated and I appreciate getting a close eye of each of those pieces
This feeling at 5.22 💓💓
I love this song and his voice is perfect.
The band is terrific as well!!!
Respekt an Finnbo, wie er minutenlang mit nur einer Hand sechzehntel spielt
Ich liebe deinen Namen. Und ich glaube, ich habe dir das schonmal in einer anderen Kommentarspalte gesagt. Aber egal 😄❤️
@Yilme Dankeschön😊
@Ylime sorry :)
Ich glaube das sind Achtel
Sind glaub nicht durchgehende 16tel
It is actually really good song. I'm impressed, tbh. Good taste and execution.
These are so under rated, amazing musicians raw talent and will definitely make it big.
6:18 and on is another kind of special, the instrumental gives me life
soon I'm leaving
soon I'll be gone
I don't need reason do be alone...
this part hits
Master piece
I love this band so much ❤️
My favourite playlist on CZcams
Thats it, I'm officially in love with this group and Frederik.
Same. He's married with a little one.
Wie kann man als Mensch nur so schöne Lieder schreiben
