LYRICS
I’m on the spectrum, near UV
I mess with you, you see through me
sailing across the sea of sheets
you cant deny a laugh that deep
my tinnitus is singing songs
this ass slap stairwell reverb ringing on
Girl I don't care
Just to even breathe your air
we have these moments but I do not know
what they mean what are they tryng to show?
if they’re nothing, then I guess we’ll know
We have these moments then we let them go
im on the spectrum infrared
emitting heat, although Im dead
hard as math, straight as a flight path
wetter than poseiden’s ass
deep in pain, not my year
im still here, you’re still here
here take my world
in your cheeks, like a squirrel
we have these moments but I do not know
what they mean what are they tryin to show?
if they’re nothing, then I guess we’ll know
We have these moments then we let them go

[@visualeyesmusic]

Can we acknowledge the power of getting the entire Metropole Orkest to wear skeleton outfits!?

[@carlnorstumecha]

That's the power of Nothing.

[@dugthefreshest]

once they heard what he wrote, they knew.

[@sailfast2005]

Who wouldn’t want to be on stage with the coolest MFer on the planet in the same outfit playing badass arrangements?
Jules is also epically awesome so this is no surprise. Love this group and their willingness to take risks for art.

[@DeanyKong]

80% of this album's budget went to skeleton costumes.

[@donniebobb74]

imagine running sound! lol

[@althejazzman]

The precision of that looped intro makes me anxious thinking about how many mistakes I would make.

[@turbo8481]

For real!

[@guillaumechabason3165]

Those loops are incredibly good

[@Lazzmodai]

Good lord, that final drum fill was just straight up galactic.

[@aakkoin]

It's just one human

[@grimtactix25]

[galactic drum fill]

[@N_Norse]

Yeah, I'm with Thundercat on this one, I love Louis Cole.

[@StingrayOfficial]

I will never get over how tight his drumming is and how good that snare sounds.

[@markkujii4247]

This is really true

[@acbenepe]

I saw an interview/drum demo Louis Cole did and he was like, do you have a metal ashtray or something I can borrow?

[@SweatEagle]

@@acbenepe I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s ever asked for duct tape too.

[@PeterJnicol]

​@@acbenepe Yeah, I saw that too.

[@ryanleber]

I absolutely love the conductor, an actual conductor for a symphony orchestra, taking his job very seriously, watching Louis set up loops like "Yes. Excellent. This, too, is true art."

[@BloomThat]

He's looking for the cues he needs to give the orchestra, given that Cole could set up the looping slightly different between performances. He's not evaluating Cole's art, he's making sure the orchestra comes in on time for live components of the song... Sometimes I forget that people have no idea how orchestras work and what conductors do. They aren't for show.

[@ryanleber]

@@BloomThat dude I have a master's in music, and that was clearly just a joke. Calm the heck down.

[@davepmolloy]

Check out his other work. His work on the Proms is so great, particularly the Aretha tribute

[@kraftyhandz]

⁠​⁠@@ryanleber obviously you didn’t know @bloomthat has a big dick dude c’mon

[@alexandrp854]

@@BloomThatu should better remember about the humor 😅

[@shark_it_up]

that orchestral hit at 1:11 has already jumpscared me 3 times even though i know it’s coming

[@TheMork]

hahahaha me too, every single time I listen to the song!

[@strangehermitage2299]

The 26 second-mark "Did I nail that line? Yep, think so" shrug is adorable.

[@groovenfish9531]

0:24 hands be like: did I do that oh damn I guess I did do that lets go

[@DeanyKong]

0:27 conductor be like: did he do that oh damn I guess he did do that lets go

[@kylie6243]

@@DeanyKong stop i giggled both times.

[@groovenfish9531]

how tf you line those up like that first take good lord

[@ChefShallzy]

You MEAN IT.

[@jtang2529]

Drumming what!? 😮 the guy’s a savant! Jedi Master of beats! Funk Master drum God! Next level shaolin monk of Bruce Lee bass kicking romper stomping badass dudebeatery! 😊

[@stevecarmo548]

And that's just the least of it!

[@joelbergsma7019]

Hope you’re feeling better Louis!

[@grouchyblackman]

That was a weird moment. Im happy I was a part of it .

[@arturomontilla5073]

Music is alive and quite well. Good! Good! Good!

[@mento6]

Amazing lyrics as always

[@1thevm1]

Certified Louis Cole banger

[@RonArgyle2011]

Wooah powerful! Get well Louis !

[@lftkryo]

Congratulations on the insult in the first half of the youtube video id. That's incredibly lucky icing on the cake. =)

[@parkpatt]

LOL the URL has the word "dicK" in it. Nice

[@fabio-vb7xu]

Nice

[@davepmolloy]

Insane ! I love how Jules is looking at him like a teacher asking for homework

[@thatguitarguy99]

This is my favorite type of music ❤

[@BanGaDakuma]

The Orchestra mixes with so dam robust! It's good, so dang good, it really is.

[@dafunkycanuck]

This rules. I like when the trombones come in at 2:54. Whammy!

[@soccerkenshin]

Thank you Louis!

[@strangehermitage2299]

Conductor be like: "Louis, I'm nervous, don't fail me now"

[@artosbear]

I'm just living for Gen

[@connorhung6958]

Louis and Genevieve’s boss level theme

[@safesclart]

Wow! Keep doing YOUR thing. BIG UP Louis Cole!

[@bobmontana37]

You’re the fuckin DUDE, Louis! (Well wishes for you too man I hope you get better soon!)

[@edouardjay8731]

No musical borders for genius ! 🙌🏻

[@brianfergus839]

Very formulaic though - SO many of his songs sound EXACTLY like this one.

[@edouardjay8731]

That's why he's unique. Sounds like no other.

[@miguelcruzreyes7094]

Me encanta la mirada de Jules Buckley, es como diciendo " qué tipo tan bueno, pero no tan bueno como yo" Esa también es la música ❤❤❤

[@vkotis]

I hope you can get your nervous system regulated again soon!

[@SweatEagle]

When I saw the cover, I thought the album was going to be little-to-no drumming and completely orchestral. I've never been so happy to be so wrong.

[@mike7755]

That was crazy

[@guiom77]

J ai reconnu direct le style cole ‼️💥ce mec est le nouveau zappa

[@kirafrmla]

Yes.

[@user-vw2rz8qq2g]

Как же это круто! 🌟🤘

[@avantgardenovelist]

[@GordonPavilion]

Genius

[@cromulence]

First time I've seen a naughty word in the video ID. Oh my.

[@polaka311]

hope ur health is getting better Louis

[@songsandscience2295]

Rad!

[@KerbalJoe]

OH BABY

[@nkronert]

The applause at the end was inversely proportional to the number of classical music connaisseurs in the audience 😉

[@Laserstormelpies]

the way he played the piano looked more like he was playing a rhythm game. i like it :D
edit: mandatory cymbal grab at the end

[@Endwarpowers]

I just laughed out loud and I enjoyed every moment

[@imacomputer1234]

sick

[@soundtreks]

Terrific sound and song. Love the orchestration.

[@VictorRochaGaming]

Mercy! I wasn't prepared for that awesomeness.

[@KNIGHTJUMPS]

Louis Cole is Bad Ass also Knower.

[@parkpatt]

this is my favorite from the new album atm.

[@tropinanatoly5592]

Amazing. This whole thing reminds me of Sergey Kuryokhin's "Popular Mechanics" project.

[@nkronert]

I must say that was beyond cool! 😎

[@Mister006]

Metropole Orkest is the coolest!

[@cj8172]

Too awesome...again

[@marftrogdor]

Astonishing honestly

[@jakechaffee4830]

Yup

[@haribaumgartner1]

Holy Shit!!! It's sooo good and inspiring. Thank You!!!

[@chrysalis0]

"Mean it" vibes

[@SweatEagle]

I hope they release a studio or live version of that soon. I think I saw a clip on LC’s channel of them performing it live and the drumming was INSANE.

[@chrysalis0]

@@SweatEagle That would be glorious

[@ryanlupton3157]

What did i do to deserve this onslaught of new Louis Cole music? I want to know so i can keep doing it.

[@lightbulbjim]

New album drop.

[@ianmoore5502]

the nerve of that left hand, honestly

[@chvolow]

Mixed out in this version, but right there he says "alright let's take this sh*t to the next level." I grabbed the recording from dutch TV after the show in 2022 and always assumed that noise was him bumping into the microphone lol

Lenire is a company operating in usa. They provide relief from tinnitus brother! I am booked in for intital consult on 19 septmeber 2024. I have had tinnitus for over 10 years. I am a bass player and am pretty sure the guitarist gave me tinnitus! Maybe they can help you, nothing else i have tried has worked, other than meditation.

[@Geraint3000]
