Andrew Bird - Manifest

- čas přidán 9. 09. 2024
- My Finest Work Yet was recorded live to tape at Barefoot Studios in Los Angeles, CA. Bird and band went for that Rudy Van Gelder jazz room sound where the instruments bleed in to all the mics in just the right way. Piano plays a strong role on these songs and most of the melodies are tinged with a gospel-jazz-60s soul feel while the lyrics are direct and risk-taking, cutting to the quick of what’s happening in our world. Bird was joined on the album by producer Paul Butler, Tyler Chester on piano and organs, Madison Cunningham on vocals, Alan Hampton on bass, Blake Mills on guitar, Ted Poor on drums, plus Abe Rounds on drums and Mike Viola on guitar on “Archipelago.”
Directed by Matthew Daniel Siskin
Produced by Laurence Jacobs

Our Mr. Bird is getting old. And just like wine, the older the better.
"older", never old
Nobody gets younger
@@cspenglerstrategies of course not, Chris. But the impression when you've been following an artist when he was younger and then realize that he is actually growing up, makes my heart warm.
But it's okay if you don't think the same as me. :D
@@abigahilarias4331 Wow, talk about twisting things. I was commenting on your "shock" that he aged. I've been following artists for nearly twice as long as you been alive and still pay money to see them. Anyway, glad you enjoy his music. I wish more people knew of it. Take care.
@@cspenglerstrategies benjamin button?
Cher, Carol Vorderman??
This song helped me through one of the hardest times in my life till date...forever grateful for the song to exist♥️♥️
I found this song a few days ago and can't stop listening to it. It has this weird power to transcend reality and put the listener into a trance like state of contemplation. It really captures the essence of a lost, dying soul.
Never stop making music.
❤️
I like that someone as singular as Bird put the fellow musicians' names right up front - appreciate when that happens.
Favorite artist of all time. Deepest gratitude for helping me through this life.
masterpiece, the whole album is a masterpiece
Absolutely close enough.
This song chokes me up. Thank you.
My life wouldn't be complete without Andrew Bird's music. ❤
sisyphus, and this song my best song!!
The prettiest song ever made about fossil fuels.
Anybody else worried of certain unspeachable oil companies getting a hold of this to associate good vibes with the black Crack they peddle? Hahaha
Another song already? We've been spoiled! So good!
It's amazing what comes of an actual musician thinking in terms of an "album" rather than a product thinking in terms of singles, no?
Very nice. Madison Cunningham is a miraculous addition to anyone's band.
This is just so deep and good, deep and good.
What an amazing style; hairs stand on end. Andrew Bird's lyrics are immaculate and fitting and instrumentation satisfying.
Mr. Bird is a treasure!
A true ARTIST 💚 such unique and beautiful music.Makes my heart happy.
Andrew Bird, you are the musical love of my life. ❤️
I love how his music continues to evolve.
my favorite song ever
❤❤❤FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG
Tyler Chester is the swiss army knife of the Los Angeles music scene. A lethal weapon. HUGE sound guy.
I love this song! Thank you for doing what you do!
*Lyrics*
I'm coming to the edge of the widest canyon
My companions dear
I started to question my manifest destiny
My claim to this frontier
I'm coming to the brink of a great disaster
The end just has to be near
The earth's spinning faster
Whistles right past your-
Whispers death in your ear
Don't pretend you can't hear
Don't pretend you can-
I can hear your tendrils still digging
For everything that's walked this earth once living
Then to be exhumed and burnt to vapor
Can we save her?
Now she's in the air
Radical and free
Neither here nor there
She's obliged to no one
She's obliged to no one, yeah, yeah
I'm coming to the edge of a rising ocean
Such commotion and fear
Keeping all our eyes on what's on the horizon
And all that we hold dear
I'm coming to the brink of a great disaster
End just has to be near
The earth spins faster
Whistles right past your-
Whispers death in your ear
Don't pretend you can't hear
Don't pretend you can't-
I can hear your tendrils still digging
For everything that's walked this earth once living
Then to be exhumed and burnt to vapor
Can we save her?
She's in the air
Radical and free
Not a goddamn care
She's obliged to no one
She's obliged to no one
Don't pretend you can't hear
Don't pretend you can't hear.
:)
Hi Anubhav :D
Thanks for posting the lyrics!
Oh crap I just assumed the transcript was wrong. How do you fit that many syllables into tendrils : D
Thanks/ I guess I have to read it again when I am not that stoned. I really like his music >>a lot. I am checking if their is a life show here around. Good day to you.
Holy shit, I didn't realize it was about climate change. Beautiful.
Don’t pretend you can’t hear...such a profound and timely lyric. Congratulations!
Can't wait for this album, this world needs more andrew bird vibes!!
My favorite story teller.
What do ya know... Andrew Bird wrote and peformed a song, and its absolutely amazing. Go figure
I got turned on to Andrew Bird because of one of my favourite artists Martin Dosh. I never got into him but I am going to be in Detroit in September so I gave his new album a shot. This album My Finest Work is a masterpiece. I have listened it 4-5 times at least in the first 24 hours of listening.
fantastic song

Awesome of you to give the sound guys the love they deserve!
After a 60 hour work week and finally being able to sit and relax for a moment, I am really psyched I sat and relaxed to this he really captured the moment for me on the night we called it a day. Thank you Andrew Bird. This is bloody brilliant!
grateful for my manifest of an autobiographical soundtrack to this thing i call life 💞
Perfectly timed with the arrival of spring man
I knew I liked Madison Cunningham the first time I saw her, but she continues to impress with all of her great collabs she's done over the past few years.
Great great songs. Soundtrack of my life. Congrats Andrew.
I LOVE ANDREW BIRD SO MUCH! Thank you for all the music you send out into the world! WE NEED YOU FOREVER
it's a good sensation to find a new andrew bird performance... it's a better sensation when it's this good. thank you
Thank you for making this 🥹🧡
wow just wow
Thank you so much Mr.Bird for this wonderful song, there is beauty in the ugliest of things.
Beautiful song
I wish I could be in the room for something like this, such great musicians. If I could just play a chord or two along, my life would be made.
He’s so talented and versatile, reminds me of Mozart.
Stellar song and fantastic crew! Definitely his finest work yet 😉
In awe.
Love this behind the scenes, genuine feel with this video and the others from this album. So thankful to have Andrew Bird in my life.
Oh my word, this is gorgeous!
Beautiful...
좋다 좋아
Gorgeous song.
2019 is shaping up nicely!
I just wanted to tell you... PLEASE, NEVER stop making music. No sé mucho inglés, espero que al menos se entienda jaja💜😂 grettings from Meeeexico, Andrew.
I misread that as "STOP MAKING MUSIC" 😱
Xhersky México también
Prolific genius.
So awesome!! I’m so excited!!
The exact song I needed to hear in the exact moment... Magic
Awesome sounds! Also i like the all b-roll video, true Bird style:)
Thank you, Andrew.
My heart swells with joy. What an inspiration you are.
Musical genius
Wonderful and beyond... 💖
Fantastic. Truly your finest work yet. I've enjoyed every song I've heard so far.
Makes me so happy to see Andrew's sense of humor shine back through with this album title and cover art. Funny just hearing him say "This is where we recorded: My Greatest Work Yet." Hope not to many people are just scratching their heads but that almost makes it funnier.
Beautiful music, thank you very much.
I got a fever .. and the only prescription .. is Andy’s whistle
This is just pure beauty 💘

[Verse 1]
I'm coming to the edge of the widest canyon
My companions' dear
I'm starting to question my manifest destiny
My claim to this frontier
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm coming to the brink of a great disaster
The end just has to be near
The Earth spins faster, whistles right past you
Whispers death in your ear
Don't pretend you can't hear
Don't pretend you can't

Can you save her?
Now she's in the air
Radical and free
Neither here nor there
She's obliged to no one
She's obliged to no one
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
I'm coming to the edge of a rising ocean
Such commotion and fear
Keeping all our eyes on what's on the horizon
And all that we hold dear
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm coming to the brink of a great disaster
End just has to be near
The Earth spins faster, whistles right past you
Whispers death in your ear
Don't pretend you can't hear
Don't pretend you can't

She's obliged to no one
Oh, no
[Outro]
Don't pretend you can't hear
Don't pretend you can't hear
Beautiful!
This is perfectly mixed. Do an HD album with your greatest hits from this studio.
amazing !
Love you Andrew... I have a friend who lives a bit too close to a fracking operation, and it's definitely not been a blast to her trying to breathe and being asthmatic with all that crap in the air. Looking forward to hear the rest of the album!!!
Great song and beatiful melodies
It's like the world doesn't exist!
GOAT!
She's obliged to no one!
outstanding work !
Great Andrew!
이 노래도 좋네요 This song is good,too~~♡♡
I just watched this song performed live at the Green Mill and honestly it was soooo much better live.
STUPENDOUS.
I hope he makes it to Vancouver Canada...
Masterpiece
Perfection
Genial hermano saludos desde Colombia buena música. Great very song
This song reminds me of everything going on in the world right now.
Fantastic songwriter! It's inspiring really and makes me want to strive for better.
Bonita canción 😌
Truth
bravo
10 sec in, already love it
OH WOW! loooooooove it!
So fucking GOOOD!!!
Chulada de canción.
Yay! I feel spoilt.
Andrew bird is my lord and savior
It is rather complicated to talk about Mr. Bird. His deep reflections and dense lyrics need rumination, while there exists a careless almost dismissive vibe in his music. It is hard to imagine his songs to be otherwise. Let him be, he grows on you so tenderly.
❤️💛💚💙💜🖤💜💙💚💛❤️
Wow this is so good!
a new album? aww yis
March, 23... Save the date fellas
Look! LETO. Yes, bam! Learn to do well. Make us proud, Not the problem. Thanks.
Funny mix with the keyboard poking at us in the left channel.
