That girl has a ridiculous amount of soul and I'm honestly jealous
Tank Engine right. I love her style
Tank Engine LOL ur avi
Nah, she has just culturally appropriated the soul of great African American singers before her.

'I could call your demons inside, soak them in chamomile'. Fucking beautiful.
Yea she got bars
also a big fan of "aorta; tattoo the artery with acute artistry"
amsterdamob Also a georgeous line. She is sickeningly talented.
She's a Goddess
Seriously 🎶😍🎶
2 years in a row with Grammy nods and people are still sleeping on them. Smh....They are the future.
At least the Grammys noticed that other music exists besides Jay Z, Rhihanna and Post Malone.
Facts Famo they're so dope 🔥
they're to good to be seen as mainstream my guy
@@jacobdavio9722 you’re right, they deserve so much more spotlight, aside for all the trivial bile the music industry keeps spewing out for the sheeple that “sounds like that artist from years ago...”, Hiatus take it to another level and often too many artists fall off the radar, but on the flipside, their creativity keep their sounds strong as they have to be to get people hooked and they get one hell of a lot more respect for it 👍
Heard that, whole grammy thing is rigged. Talent/dedication/innovation always are an after thought for them. The music which generates hype/money will always win..
'Call your demons inside, soak them in camomile' best line EVER
Salma Lynch yeessss
I agree
Salma Lynch yessssss
Mhmm ^_^
I was like whaaat!!! " for you love!!!"
This video makes me feel like Hiatus Kaiyote are desert nomads writing music from all the different places they've seen. This song in particular made me feel as though they stumbled into an oasis and dived right in, only to discover an entire underwater ecosystem. Beautiful artistry.
Kaepora Gaebora Such a beautiful observation.
If you like Desert nomads who are great musicians, check out Tinariwen. If these two groups teamed up they could make a beautiful music baby.
Nice
During Lockdown and since I have been teaching myself Nia's vocals... Difficult but I love all of their amazing tunes, Jazz etc. I only need the lyrics now as some I can't quite make out. So glad you love them too x
I love them so much! Hands down some of the best music I've ever heard in my life.
I agree I can't find this sound anywhere else
I second, third, fourth and fifth that statement! The gods have blessed these souls with some special gifts...
Ava Luna and Esperanza Spalding
ericaleshai i found this listening to Moonchild like 10 minutes ago. I'm gonna have this on repeat for a minute.
Nikia Harris just so you know your repeat button will be destroyed!
Still jamming this in 2024 🎶
Me as a black man l love the sound and the grove l just love them playing ass kicking music and am 63. years old am just mad l can't see them in concert....lovr these guys your great. ....
This music is too good for me to understand at this stage of my life as a person and musician.
Totally agree 😂
Yup. I wish I'd understand more how they compose and the meaning of their songs :)
Ahaha totally!
wow this was too specific lmaoo
Its throwback to progressive rock and jazz. This music was kinda popular among musicians in the 70s.
Chamomile is good for sleep, I worked at a tea shop. You could say 'Put your demons to sleep'. Such a sweet line.
Ruqayat Hime I know right!!! My favorite line
No I think the reference is to the smell.
That tight
She sounds like she grew up in a gospel choir. Her voice is so soulful ❤️
I met Nai Palm at a festival where I was doing security
I thought she was just another pub singer because I didn't get to see her performance
Regardless I would have never forgot her kindness and beauty
Then I found this! She s amazing
That bass line is killer, and her runs are amazing 😍❤️🌹💋🌺🌼☘
this music is so magical
They are ok but nothing compared to true jazz vocalists.
@@tonalambiguity3345 the fuck are you talking about? The post was about the bass lines and Nai's guitar work. Not sure how you think vocals are part of that discussion?
Gotdamn.
I love how she switches up the tempo so unpredictably.
I had the great pleasure and privilege to see them live last year here in Dublin. And I also had the chance to chat a bit with their bass player and drummer. I will say this; when you are a 55 years old guy, have been playing music yourself for over 30 years and have witnessed some of the greatest bands ever passed this planet including the Sun Ra Intergalactic Orchestra, superlatives are not something that you put out lightly. But seeing the Hiatus Kaiyote was a revelation!! Addictive, musical geniuses, inspiring beyond descriptions. And they can play everything! For me right now they are one the greatest bands!
Hey, I'm a 55 yr old guy who's a musician too, and yes, I've heard some of the best prog rock, jazz, funk, fusion there ever was (Return to Forever, National Health, David Sancious, Yes, King Crimson, Gentle Giant, etc, etc) and it is a joy to see and hear that the spirit of fusion music has not vanished, despite the purists and the naysayers. These guys are righteous!
You know, it takes one to know one. This speaks volumes for Who You Are as well. I had no idea who they were when I heard them on a local jazz station one day last summer driving to starbucks. I was inspired to video the gorgeous afternoon sky while sitting at a light while Hiatus was playing on my cheap car radio. The timing of the music to the changing scenery and background noises was amazing and the moment I pulled into starbucks the song ended and the DJ gave me the vital info about who They were. Couldn't have timed the video any better. Money can't buy serendipity! Here's the link if you're interested. It's only 90 seconds. czcams.com/video/tnSvZ4FrhFA/video.html
@@rembeadgc None of those groups you mentioned are remotely funky; start w/James Brown and go from there.
This song is literally HEALING. Every single vibration, dictation, vibe is felt and expanded! Nai's ability to beautifully paint a picture while taking you on a journey with every word using her voice is a magic within itself. Everything about this song from the key changes, the tempo switches, the variety of instruments, the runs, the pronunciation of certain words, is it's own experience. The more you listen to, the deeper you go; the depths unknown and unmeasurable and so tantalizing for the soul. Thank you Hiatus Kiayote for being so musically and spiritually gifted and for sharing your vibrations with us all
I am a professional photographer and I am blessed with hours beyond hours of editing. I choose my editing hours to listen to music, Hours beyond hours. This album. FIRE. Thank you Hiatus Kaiyote for creating a modern day masterpiece!
Baby girl got SOUL! 😩❤️ I always come back to this song!
This is the most painfully beautiful song I've heard this year.
The lead singer and band are all gorgeous, the band together creates a multitude of beautiful tracks that both inspire and drive my artistic activities. If I ever become a big name in the art industry, I want to support Hiatus Kaiyote in everything that they do. I got nothin' but love for ya', Hiatus Kaiyote. Please, keep being amazing.
+Reversible Krunk Sauce if you ever become a big name in the art industry...it will probably because you added a lot of letters to your name and it is literally big
nice..
Funny to find another smash player here of all places.
But I agree with you!
I so feel you on that inspiration. Even as I sit still doing nothing but listening and feeling intently, I feel my creative juices bubbling.
this is amazing. can you imagine if they teamed up with Thundercat or Flying Lotus?
it will happen sooner than later, and I'm already lubricating my ears for it
With a couple "The Internet", ?uestlove, and Yoko Kanno features, throwing in some Phyllis Hyman remixes, combined with the production quality of Herbie Hancock, and finishing it off with tributes to Amy Winehouse.
Jo Rap, you forgot Kamasi Washington on Tenor Sax.
that would just be dumb, why would a band that already makes good music need to "team up" with someone else.
Things like that happen all the time, ain't nothing wrong with that. It's about vibing with different creative flows. The Roots collab with so many artists and they're a legend on their own.
WHAT IS THIS MAJESTY AND WHO IS THIS SHAMAN QUEEN BREATHING LIFE INTO MY EARS? I'm officially addicted
From Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
❤️❤️❤️
This is my first time listening to these guys, and I'm halfway through this song. I feel like I'm going to remember this moment for a loooooonnnng time...
Dopest thing going on in life right now. This band.
True. Next album coming...
I'm here because I've got excellent taste in music.
U do
It's true
So do I
Ofcourse you do 😃👏🏾
Your name is Badu so that's obvious 😊
This is one of those RARE songs where, when I am absolutely mesmerized by the velvet sounds of this song, and I expect the song to be nearly over, BUT IT ISN'T EVEN HALFWAY OVER. PERFECTION!
Have been into BadBadNotGood, Flying Lotus, and Thundercat heavily. Thundercat has soul and BadBadNotGood had the funk, but I could not find anything that fused the two. I'm obsessed with this band and I just found out about them today. Great stuff.
or morcheeba!!!! moloko too. ^_^
I've been hearing the 3 groups two, I feel the unique in each one !! That the beauty of creating with the soul, good day !
The meters literally exist....
Some of friends say they don’t like it. they say the beat is too complicated for them. My teeth say otherwise.
Yeah, my friends don't like this type of music either. Instead of complicated, they say they don't like the improvised unpredictable beats to their music. I'm like.....welcome to jazz my friends. Lol!
Oh my God I thought I was the only one, do you mean you tap out the rhythms with your teeth? I do this literally all day every day lmao
Feel ya. Bit my friends too over this
You don't need friends like that lol.
@@oatmeal4life441 there’s the spirit of my dad in your reply, I appreciate you
Seth Rogen is killing it on the bass.
Mocha Mochi gold 😂

lmfao
My most favorite song by Hiatus Kaiyote! Thank you to my Mommy telling me about seeing this band on a late night television talk show two years ago, and RIP to my Mommy. Thank you for posting, and I am enjoying this album. ☺
May she rest in peace!
+Rolando Tate Thank you.
I have my ticket to see band Hiatus Kaiyote in London UK on April 29, my late Mommy's birthday. I can't wait to celebrate her legacy by listening to this band. :-)
+Tara G I hope you enjoy the show today! :)
+Ina&Cat Plays Thank you, I did. I have one of my recordings of the concert on my CZcams channel. :-)
The word hurts, the word hurts
The word hurts, the word hurts
In water, in water
In water, in water
The word hurts, the word hurts
The word hurts, the word hurts
In water, in water
In water, in water
In water, in water
In water, in water
[Verse 1]
Material, slowly unwind as I leave feathers behind
For your love, for your lover to find
Warm hands wrapped in blue linen from Torrington
For your love, for your lover to find
Wild rose, Jericho sun, arid as stone
For your love, for your lover to find
Aorta, tattoo the artery with acute artistry
For your love, for your lover to find
[Chorus]
Breathing, breathing underwater
Breathing, breathing underwater, ah
Bre-brea-breath you underwater
[Verse 2]
Pleasure, melting a snowflake of lace down your face
For your love, for your lover to find
I could call your demons inside, soak them in Camomile
For your love, for your lover to find
[Chorus]
Breathing, breathing underwater
Breathing, breathing underwater
I could bre-brea-breath you underwater
[Bridge]
To find
For your love, for your lover to find
For your love, for your lover to find
For your love, for your lover to find
For your love, for your lover to find
Bre-breathing underwater
Breathing underwater
Breathing underwater
Breathing underwater
For your love, for your lover, your love, for your love
For your love, for your lover, your love, for your love
For your love, for your lover, your love, for your love
For your love, for your lover, your love, for your love
[Outro]
For your love, for your lover
For your love, for your lover
For your love, for your lover
For your love, for your lover
I want you to breathe it in, I want you to breathe it in
I want you to breathe it in, I want you to breathe it in
The word hurts, the word hurts
The word hurts, the word hurts
In water, in water
In water, in water
The word hurts, the word hurts
The word hurts, the word hurts
In water, in water
In water, in water
Diana Mora bless you
"The words in water"...
"The wor-ords in water"
I thought it was "the world hurts"
thank you 💞✨
My God where has this music been my whole life.
Perfect music with perfect singer, perfect guitar player, paerfect bass player, perfect keyboard player and perfect drums player. Just perfect perfection.
I promise you when they create together it’s pure magic. I feel like I’m in a trance when I listen to this song. Nai’s voice is literally heaven.
No one can touch Hiatus Kaiyote arrangements & transitions.
It’s been years since this track dropped & it still makes me feel the same way it did when I first heard it.
Listening to this song is an out of body experience. This video and song has lived rent free in my head for years.
If I ever get tired of this song, I will never forgive myself.
This song is always buzzing around in my head. There's something addictive about it.
Hands down the best band I've heard in 15 years. Nai is being slept on... she may be the greatest vocalist alive (and she's a killer guitarist too!).
I’ve been looking for this song for 5 years OMG finally found it last night and cannot stop listening to it. It’s been on repeat for a few hours hahahaha
Welcome :)
Same!! Omg their music is healing me!
God bless you for this music. Been searching for something that speaks to me recently and I've found it.
+Miguel Perez Hit it on the head there. This really is some soul music. It just gets me.
When the synth hits you at 0:53. I still get goosebumps on my 100th listen.
true story bruh
Gregory Shorte it's like floating in a time rip. Like 80s futuristic. They are fire
yah, that synth line is one of the most creative things I've heard in years...pure magic
What drawn me to this song!!! Synths gave me that ugly funk face immediately!!!
combined with the angelic voicing, instrumentals & rhythmics you feel like shifting towards an altered state or sumn for a second- … 🤯🤯 unreal, but i'm loving it!!! 🥺‼️✨
I mean...this is God-given talent combined with skill in its purest form. I don’t think people realize how talented they are. Her vocals, the instrumentalists, so in the pocket, the intricacy and details, the stylings....I could go on, but it’s fukking phenomenal.
I was going through the most amazing spiritual awakening and my spirit led me to this group when the album first came out 🙏🏽 I’m 32 now and still grateful for such healing and creative music!
-Doctor: I'm sorry, you have 3 minutes of life left. Anything you want?
-Me: please, play Breathing Underwater
-Doctor: but it last at least 5 minutes
-God: It's ok....
UR SO REAL
3:01 is when you finally walk into heaven! 😍😍😍😍
Christian Williams fa sho. I love when the beat drops. I get hypnotized.
Crazy good
We should make a short movie SONG STARTS....🎥Everyone is on a cruise ship at your wedding...ship starts too sink everybody is panic....you save your pregnant wife but you start too sink...and as you start to lose your breath wake up underwater breathing at 3:01 you walk in to continue your wedding in heaven.... Everybody having a wonderful time in ALL WHITE all the way til the end b4 u kiss the bride.... youR best man wakes you up on the cruise ship...its your wedding day time for the ceremony 📷🎯🎥
I could call your demons inside, soak them in chamomile - for your love, for your love to find! TOO FUCKING GOOD
Her face tattoo is everything. It works so well for her face especially while she sings. It’s like it’s supposed to be there.
My soul has been lifted into the multi-dimension
Still listening in 2020🔥
This song is so good its worship, saved my life😭😭😭😭😭
You guys are one of the best bands ive came across from the past 30-40 years..
thank you for the music you create.. its timeless
Music like this comes from a genuine place... man, it makes me wanna cry. This is what puts only a few bands and musicians at a different plane of entire existence.
Wow! CZcams sure brought me to a beautiful place! Mmm I'm addicted.
yes I love this part of youtube
I remember downloading Choose Your Weapon when it came out because I was so enamoured by the album art. After listening to it the first time, I knew I liked it but never really understood it until I ventured into a lot of other jazz influenced music (Soulection, Flying Lotus, Thundercat, Erykah Badu, Jameszoo to name only a few). Returning to this album gives me so much joy as I now have the musical maturity to understand what's going on.
It's fucking lit, fam.
This song is EVERYTHING. I get chills every time I hear it. Love love LOVE it.
How the hell am I just hearing this!??? 💪🏾😭🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Tori Kelly mentioned this band in her interview, and I agree I am hooked!
+sonicroll3000 same!!!
yessss omg same haha
+sonicroll3000 I'm hooked on this band thanks to her as well! :) they are all masters at what they do
Can you tell me what interview if you rmb? Thanks 😊
+mickxy look up tori kelly on breakthrough award...she mentions them
That breakdown 😭❤️✌🏽
Bumpin still in 2023 🔥😮💨
Recently found out about this band and it’s like I’ve unlocked a new level of music. Never heard anything like this.
Haha love the way you put it. Have you heard of Zap Mama? I saw a show with her and Les Nubians 🤯
goodness, unbelievable amount of creativity and originality. Simply out of this world. Never quite heard anything like this so far
So original and timeless.
Love from Melbourne to the world!
That voice with the tight jazzy riffs is
That key change tho 😮💨
Unbelievably amazing song. Wow.
I love this damn group, still bumping in 2019!!!
Reminds me on early 70's Rufus ahd Chaka Khan ! Melodic as heck ! ':)
That's her sole influence!
I said the same thing.
3 M views and they must be all from top artists all around the world. The favorite artist of your favorite artists.
8 years ago this was the first song, I’ve heard from them. STILLL BRINGS ME TO TEARS AND AWE in the body! Saw them in concert…. IMMACULATE!!!!!!!
Impossible to describe how much this music means to me.
It crosses so much soul, jazz and funk with the courage to take chances.
It is so heavy in the roots of many music styles, yet it is completely unique.
I am a guitarist, but this makes me want to sing my heart out.
So I'm just casually strolling through H.E.R. music and came across this group. I must admit this is Good Shit. I'm hooked.
This song makes me cry every time.
Nai, thank you for bringing this gem into the world. It's one of the best ever written in my humble opinion.
When I die, this is the song I’ll bump in the sacred whip while travelling to heaven.
I play their album at work everyday! I can't get enough
Now i remember why i fell inlove 💖💖💖😍😍😍
😍
I really wish they'd re-visit the whole concept of this album! Nia and the crew were God-tier on every track! This one especially
Really love the song and visual. Whole thing complete!
I listen to this song every day! Never tired of it, it's so unique and beautiful ❤️
Unf*****ing unbelievable !!! I didn't think bands like this existed anymore ! Beautiful !!
I need to see them live so badly! I have loved them for years! Nai's voice is awesome!
Absolutely love these guys sooooo much. Every tune speaks to my soul and makes my heart soar❤
I don't deserve to watch this for free !!!
They are incredible man. Mind blown & overwhelmed with love ❤️
Just came back, ugh! So good.
way to bring back musicianship into a world where there is virtually no barrier to entry into recorded music. much love from around the globe
This is one of the best tracks I've heard in a long time...Thanks!
I get so sad when this song ends
I could listen to just the drums. Skills. Love the way this takes off.
I'm soooo obsessed with this band and Nai.
Sooo fuuunky!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
how do they even come up with this music, how do they even have such great production, perfection
I'm so excited they are back touring and making good jams! I'm seeing them in Chicago and I think my soul will leave my body if they play this song live
I'm late to this gem. So good 👍🏽🙏🏾❤
Call me corny, but I see "colors" when I hear music. There are so many colors in this song. I love it.
i think thats actually called synthesia, u might have it!
2:55 Touches my soul and makes me tear up, man.....
I've been to see Plini a couple of times and this always plays before he comes on stage. Much love for HK
In a period whenI was recovering from being quite ill, you guys helped me get better. You mean the world to me. Adore Breathing Under Water and so many of your songs.Hope to see you soon in Amsterdam. Love and respect X
Favorite song by them, I love Nai Palm's voice ugh so angelic
i must be living under a rock.. love the fusion and freshness of this band
This film clip is on point!! Great colours and imagery. Love love HK!
Released on my birthday, what an absolute treat! This album is one of my all time favourites, cannot wait for the next project from them
