This song is so life affirming. To me, it reminds me of the feeling of falling in love. When you meet someone and can think of nothing better than spending time with them. Sitting around, smoking cigarettes, and drawing with pastels with a new girl you lust/love...this song captures that rare span of time in life when you're renewed by a new love and connected to the essence of life yet again.
animal collective is more then simply music. they have reached another level of music and this song is a perfect example of that. its wave after wave of sound that creates a beautiful wall of sound. favourite song period
i was so fucking happy i got to see this song live when i saw them. they literally played this exact version in 2013 at the Depot. It was 14 15 minutes long and it went straight into What Would I Want Sky? and i couldn't believe my mind.
+MSAZgreen this was way back before they were well known or discovered, this was back when the band and the drawers were still growing and becoming familiar with each other. Animal Collective didn't get big till 2009 with their Merriweather Post Pavillion record because of the reviewers.
This song's fantastic. One of my favorites songs & one of their best songs on "Feels" which is one of the sweetest albums I've heard. The drummer is the best, I'd love to play drums like him, with all that energy. I love the drummer!
similar to how virbations can take down buildings if at the right frequency.... this music shakes me to the core. i dont expect anyone to like this, or give two shits whatever they think. i only wish that you could experience this music like i do.
HOW ARE YOU ALL JUST STANDING THERE LIKE THAT? jesus christ. move. do you even know what you’re listening to? this is the greatest love song ever written.
Did you not see Deakin's sweet moves, Avey Tares Facial expressions trying to deliver a perfect vocal delivery, Panda Bear doin' his Panda thing, and Geologist with a ponytail!
this one is for washington phillips "I got the key to the Kingdom, and the devil can't do me no harm I got the key to the Kingdom, and the devil can't do me no harm Well, you take old prophet Daniel They put him in the lions' den On the 'count of the hundred-and-twenty princes Of bein' so full of sin" beautiful song. it speaks a lot about animal collective as a band, that they delved so deep into American music.
this may sound a bit pretentious or hipster-like BUT..the other morning on the way to school i was listening to this specific live version at 6:17 - 6:27. It was really beautiful because when Avey Tare began to "wooohoooo", some rays of sun showed through the trees perfectly...it actually made my eyes fill up and gave me chills. i now consider every time i hear this song to be a "bad" listen on my part is i don't get chills....i love you animal collective.
i love how it just builds exponentially... like panda bear pieces together the drum line and the awesome shouting by avey tare.... just fucking brilliant
Gotta love the look Avey gives the crowd @ 6:47 ... He then screams his head off. What a pure performer, it's like he's sticking up for a friend... the friend being his song.
i agree. when im at any concert i go balls out and dont care what others think and i hate people that dont realize whats happening infront of them. its like they dont appreciate it. especially a band like animal collective is so full of energy
This song and video ment a lot to me when I saw it at 17. I've seen them a few times but never during when they played with this setup. Sad I missed it but damn, happy I have the music. Havent watched this in quite a few years and it unzipped me a little as Frank might say.
As much as I love AnCo...I've never heard a live version of a song I like better than their studio versions........until I saw this. Amazing version. Way better than the already amazing studio version.
Whaaaat no way. This song is incredibly upbeat and danceable. Just because it's about love doesn't mean you don't jump around and have fun, especially at a festival. Hell, I'm moving around in my chair just listening to this. The crowd really do seem like they're not really that into it. Girl at 1:12 definitely doesn't seem like she's standing there appreciating the beauty of it
Yes. This song can't be bettered, really. Even the studio version of Purple Bottle is very exciting. I love it. I know they've moved on, but they'll never do this again.
this performance is still ludicrously good to this day. 14 years later.
One of the best
This is probably one of the most beautiful songs ever. Those lyrics are just so sweet.
The drums in this song are great, i thought they just sampled the tapping and panda bear played the toms and snare, but he does both simultaneously.
Austin B he has a delay on the drums so I think that's how he gets to should like soooo much is going on. Brilliant.
PB's godlike. I know this comment is 11 years old but I've read it a few times over the years and always wanted to reply
The more I listen to this song and to all of Feels the more I realize how unique Noah's drumming is.
@@lhmmhl1 what makes you think that? I'm not hearing a delay.
@@robertgarvansnyder4665 I feel like the tom drum has a slap back ish delay on it. Although 4 years later I'm not too sure.
People in the crowd have no idea what's going on.
"I thought this was Coldplay."
Really disappointing this is t in the park the crowd is usually goodn

It makes me happy to see Geo all excited and screaming with Avey

this is undoubtedly in my top all time performances for any band any song legit top ten. fucking epic.
William Crane what’s in the rest of your list. I bet it’s good
They never responded so I'm gonna add Wolf Like Me on Letterman
i was so fucking happy i got to see this song live when i saw them. they literally played this exact version in 2013 at the Depot. It was 14 15 minutes long and it went straight into What Would I Want Sky? and i couldn't believe my mind.
man, what a disappointing crowd :( I'd seriously lose my shit if I ever got to experience Animal Collective do this song live
I would too honestly.
+MSAZgreen SAME!!!!!!
+McKenzie Haskins losing my shit watching it in my room rn
+MSAZgreen this was way back before they were well known or discovered, this was back when the band and the drawers were still growing and becoming familiar with each other. Animal Collective didn't get big till 2009 with their Merriweather Post Pavillion record because of the reviewers.
people appreciate music in different ways but yeah I'm with ya
This song's fantastic. One of my favorites songs & one of their best songs on "Feels" which is one of the sweetest albums I've heard. The drummer is the best, I'd love to play drums like him, with all that energy. I love the drummer!
I love how when they play out they always do free form warm ups for the first 90 seconds to workshop new material and get the vibe goin
A lot of there warm ups are songs from the past just added in different songs.
Love the Stevie Wonder tribute. GENIUS.
I smiled so much during that!!!
It was do unexpected haha!
I think it was the original version of the song, but had to be cut out due to copyright
Speedy Snail
I heard the exact same thing you said. It was true unfortunately.
This is easily my most watched video on CZcams. I can not put into words what this means to me..
me too honestly
Same. Literally. You guys wanna be friends?
@@donovanjmartinez sorry for the late reply but hello my new friend
the drums
OH MY LORD THE DRUMS
I think this may be my favorite live AnCo performance of all time
similar to how virbations can take down buildings if at the right frequency.... this music shakes me to the core. i dont expect anyone to like this, or give two shits whatever they think. i only wish that you could experience this music like i do.

Perfect analogy!
i love how the beats of this song sound like someones heart beating faster and faster 'till it's about to explode out of their chest in gleeee!
It's incredible how for a small magic period of time those kind of ultra weird music was the most relevant at the festival. What a Golden era
so perfect. i love how the whole band is just going nuts, then all the sudden stops, and avey says "thanks" like it was nothing.
I think in 2007 the "aloof, detached, and too cool to dance" thing was still unfortunately very prevalent
Damn you animal collective. I'm late to work again
Jesus, Panda Bear is so beautiful on the drums... This song just makes me want to dance around and scream like a maniac!
HOW ARE YOU ALL JUST STANDING THERE LIKE THAT?
jesus christ. move.
do you even know what you’re listening to?
this is the greatest love song ever written.
I still remember changing my guitar strings for the first time and leaving them hanging like that because I had seen Avey do it 🙂
Three years ago, I created a CZcams account to favorite this video. Today, it remains my favorite video ever on CZcams.
i know. i love how the beats sound just like the beating of someone's heart about to shoot out of their chest!
i love how at the end theyre just dancing to panda's beat, imo is what makes the song what it is
I REALLY HOPE PANDA BEAR PLAYS DRUMS LIKE THESE/THIS ON THE NEXT ANCO ALBUM!
Did you not see Deakin's sweet moves, Avey Tares Facial expressions trying to deliver a perfect vocal delivery, Panda Bear doin' his Panda thing, and Geologist with a ponytail!
I just came to see Panda Bear playing drums like a god
6:40 - 6:43
Hells yes Panda, keep that beat going.
All the audience members seem to lack a soul.
Panda tears the drums on this one. Amazing.
this one is for washington phillips "I got the key to the Kingdom, and the devil can't do me no harm
I got the key to the Kingdom, and the devil can't do me no harm
Well, you take old prophet Daniel
They put him in the lions' den
On the 'count of the hundred-and-twenty princes
Of bein' so full of sin"
beautiful song. it speaks a lot about animal collective as a band, that they delved so deep into American music.
If I had a time machine...
Still shreds in 2019
panda's kills in this vid. such a good drummer.
Man, it's a lot better with the doo-doo's in the background. But this was still fantastic.
this may sound a bit pretentious or hipster-like BUT..the other morning on the way to school i was listening to this specific live version at 6:17 - 6:27.

I GOT THE KEEEEYYYYYYYY
TO THE KINGDOM
BeardedSailor1 AND THE DEVIL CAN'T DO ME NO HARM
@@NightShiftPodcast HAARM HAAARM HAAARM HAAAAAARM
i love how it just builds exponentially... like panda bear pieces together the drum line and the awesome shouting by avey tare.... just fucking brilliant
Gotta love the look Avey gives the crowd @ 6:47 ... He then screams his head off. What a pure performer, it's like he's sticking up for a friend... the friend being his song.
My favorite Animal Collective song of all time, I love how primal it gets towards the end. What a performance.
This one's for Stevie Wonder!
I think Dave once said he wanted to use Stevies lyrics for that part of the song, but his people wouldn't allow it.
@@mynameismark25 the Stevie wonder version is on CZcams
@@mynameismark25 there were lawsuits and IP disputes and it was ultimately changed.
Best performance of this song I’ve seen. Epic.
i agree. when im at any concert i go balls out and dont care what others think and i hate people that dont realize whats happening infront of them. its like they dont appreciate it. especially a band like animal collective is so full of energy
a little FYI to everyone, the lyrics that segue into the song are Washington Phillips - Keys to the Kingdom
Love the drum variations on the second half of it
no one looks hyped.. I'D BE SOOOOOOOO EXCITED!!!!!
Panda is fuckin insane on drums
The drumming is amazing
This song and video ment a lot to me when I saw it at 17. I've seen them a few times but never during when they played with this setup. Sad I missed it but damn, happy I have the music. Havent watched this in quite a few years and it unzipped me a little as Frank might say.
4:49 dat guy behind the girl looks like panda :O
holy shit
he looked like if you crossed noah with elliot smith
More like Noah + Todd Howard
Noah's secret twin brother
haha true
All of AM's lyrics are wonderful. Paired with spectacular music and its a trip!
my favorite song forever idc
4:50 Panda Bear's even in the audience, amazing!
This is the best live performance I've seen of them.
I love Avey Tare's hallelujahs.
Geologist is just the man. Period.
oh man, a little overwhelmed. awesome. looks like the singer's wearing a clay pot for a hat.
geo pioneered the man bun, looking good
+CameronFB i think i know you from somewhere
MikeMarchand
whatre you fucking gay
+CameronFB hey that's pretty good
I've watched this video 20 times today
like a carnival of emotions.
Even Geo is getting into the yelps at the end there!!
This is beyond wonderful.
Anco needs to start taking psychedelics again. Come back!
This is an incredible song. I didn't like Animal Collective before hearing it, but now I'm in love!
I always come back to this video
As much as I love AnCo...I've never heard a live version of a song I like better than their studio versions........until I saw this. Amazing version. Way better than the already amazing studio version.
Battles comes to mind. You can also look into Panda Bear and Avey Tares solo work.
Yo what the fuck why are AC live performance videos from this era so fucking good they’re like magical
it’s magic!
I think among fans it is actually considered one of their best songs. and yeah, it's completely awesome:)
aveys screams in this are straight fire
This is the entire reason I watch this video. When it gets to that point, I can just hear so much energy. Sick shit.
quite possibly the best video on youtube
O dear. I say, the chaps know their business! Splendid! Bravo!
One of the best most real live version of purple bottle
this video refuses to get old.
Whaaaat no way. This song is incredibly upbeat and danceable. Just because it's about love doesn't mean you don't jump around and have fun, especially at a festival. Hell, I'm moving around in my chair just listening to this.
The crowd really do seem like they're not really that into it. Girl at 1:12 definitely doesn't seem like she's standing there appreciating the beauty of it
Panda Bear's drumming!!
esta es lejos mi version favorita de esta cancion, and this is such a great song
i'll never get tired of this video
This is freakin awesome. Animal Collective is a breath of fresh air!
i was at this festival and missed it!!
sooo gutted.
only just got into animal collective last year so yeah, bummer. this looks fantastic.
Yes. This song can't be bettered, really. Even the studio version of Purple Bottle is very exciting. I love it. I know they've moved on, but they'll never do this again.
How could you watch The Proclaimers when Animal Collective is on? I hope everyone stayed on the channel.
LOVE this song.
4:22 that Avey freakout is amazing why wasn't it on the studio version
I would think that this song would be much more popular than it is. It has a ridiculous amount of energy.
omfg if i was there id be dancing like i was on drugs.
Just hearing their music makes me feel spectacular.
Has anyone else noticed that everyone in Animal Collective seems to be deeply opposed to blue jeans?
"For the Proclaimers..." *David Tennant immediately goes back to main menu*
Deakin is so cool how he jumps around w/ that guitar :D
The guy in the drums is PANDA BEAR YEAH!!! :D
Avey, the loud kid.
Panda, the multi-talented kid.
Geologist, the silent master of ambiance.
Deakin.... That awkward guy.
Defiantly Agree with that
Wow...this performance was wow... i give it a 200 out of 10
i miss him...
Yeah it is! I kinda like this one better then the original version to be honest I love it.
Sweet song, Awesome Performance
