      I was 14 in '64 and fronted a band with Stones hopes. Even with the likes of Van Morrison, Iggy Pop and Tim Buckley as great examples let me say there are none compared to Sam Herring. Future Islands are the best ever. Lovely stuff.

Bowie .The smiths .buzzcocks .magazine etc but as much as I still love listening to these bands I'm more grateful that amongst the shite that's about today future islands are there for me as a current band that I can look forward to seeing live

  • @tel8786
    @tel8786 Před rokem +16

    I love this because it shows Sam really going for it before the audience was responding. He gave it all to a crowd that wasn't responding that much - even though it was their THIRD show of the day. Much love and much respect.
    (From a fan who only caught on after "Singles" and is just now catching up on the backlog.)

  • @Sogonrei
    @Sogonrei Před rokem +7

    This concert is amazing on so many levels. The song " Inch of Dust" hit me on such a viseral level as well as the others. It's like Sam can read my mind it's crazy but then again we all experience a multitude of feelings but to express it as succinctly and beautifully as he does is an art, performance wise when I tear up, to smiling and wonder and joy and love. That is a prodigy.

    There’s just too much to say about this performance. I stumbled on to these guys randomly, but when I did it was a curious ear worm. I had to investigate there interesting sound. So eventually I come upon this performance and wow, I have too much to say. Sam oozes with emotion and it’s encompassing. Every word every scream puts you directly into the heart and soul of the song. The band is amazing as well but they are two separate entities that’s complement each Other harmoniously and would be nothing with out the other . The music is rhythmic and somber. Longing, lonely and cold, as somehow to keep a glimmer of hope. The synths are dark and romantic, the bass is optimistically pulsing as if to keep the balance between the two.Sam keeps the intensity and emotion that pulls you in. I can watch this once a day for the rest of my life and I first saw this in 2013

By light of you I can't endure, in light of things I can't ignore, in spite of all the roses thorns, it's hopeless works, it's hopeless words." chills every time.

    [Verse 1]
    A part of me - you have
    A part of me - you hold
    Apart from me - you stand
    And there's parts that you have stole
    [Verse 2]
    You collect them in the cupboards
    Like the pieces of a puzzle
    And nest just like a mother
    In the dampness of your sweater
    And it's never put together
    As I've watched you from the window
    Behind the curtains, winter
    Moves slowly as a tether
    To wrap around you tightly
    As lovers will in meadows
    To fall in love with shadows
    Where the snow is all but melted
    And it's never put together
    It's never put together
    Behind the curtains, winter
    Falls slowly as a feather
    [Chorus]
    A part of you - I have
    The part of you - I hide
    A part of you I hold
    The part you left behind
    [Refrain]
    Call on me, I'll be there always
    And call on me
    I'll be there always
    And call on me
    I'll be there always
    Call me
    I'll be there always (Ooo-oo-oo-oooo)
    Call me
    I'll be there always (Ooo-oo-oo-oooo)
    Call me
    I'll be there always (Ooo-oo-oo-oooo)
