This song makes me miss something I've never had. It's a weird feeling.
Makes me miss my youth....
@@judyavril123 lol
this song makes me miss him... someone that i've never had
It takes you gently down a river by the meadows under the summer sun.
Same 🥺
Dear stranger.... You have a great taste in music..... See you again after 20 yrs.
❤
:)
Wow. Thinking about actually looking back at this and seeing it was posted 20 years ago makes you think so much. I’ll check back in around 2044. ✌️
imagine how nostalgic it will feel
I Literally wouldn’t be able to tell the difference from the studio and live version.
Its dubbed yoyo
@@heath9392 lol definitely not.
omg trueeeeeeee
heath austen its not he sings some parts a little different
I absolutely can, because this version is so much better.
His voice is so passionate and raw, the instruments are comforting. My definition of perfection.
My definition of perfection is youu
Jun Lucas i know right, and im actually shocked that a man sang it not a woman.
I thought it was a girl forsure
Same, bro. Same. I dig this song.
.
ma
I never think the vocal guy looks like this lol
i never think the vocal was a guy😂
V i r t u a l b o y he is cute thoo
I always thought it was a clean shaved skinny white dude in his 20s
i thought she..... surprise surprise surprise
@@samiramirza6637 Same here😂
Insane how good they sound live
Yes perfection 🥲
As someone who watched them live recently and only then listened to their studio versions, I can confirm the live experience is far better. Especially if the crowd is singing along.
It's unreal 😍
shoutout to KEXP as well. Their live sound recording is killer. Never disappoints!
@@microsmart714 Always 👌
“Your lips, my lips, apocalypse,” is just the best lyric ever. Absolutely melts me.
And that muthafucking…melody that comes RIGHT AFTER THAT
For me it's 'come on haunt me I know you want me'
@@bhavyasarawgi9186 For me it’s the final words uttered
“When you’re all alone.
I will reach for you.
When you’re feeling low,
I will be there too”
tf does that even mean?
@@7week3day37 i am just as confused as you my guy
This song never lets you sleep. You crave for someone whom you lost. You dream that person wide awake.
🥺
You slaughtered me
this is so true 😭😭
How did you know
Listening to Apocalypse, for me, is just like falling in love with someone whom I never met.
I never knew it was a man singing. My mind is blown
R W every cigarettes after sex fan at some point of their lives probably said that ahahahah
We have both learned something new today.
Sounds a touch more masculine ( if you can call it that) here, but the recorded version on first hearing, I thought it was a female singer!
We has same thought 😅😂😂😂
R W
fk yeahh same thought
Omg he’s voice sounds heavenly 😭
And Heaven song is also their by CAS
Sometimes, less is more. This band has perfected that in my eyes.
Well stated.
You speak a truth that is lost to modern society .
real
True , less is more❤
When i was younger an art teacher told me that once we grow up we dont look at the sky anymore. So now i look up at the sky everyday and i appreciate life.
Ik it's literally insane to say but just 2 mins ago I was looking and crying while looking at the sky(listening to this song) thinking exactly how we stop looking at the sky as we grow up and then I found ur comment 😭😭
“Come on and haunt me, I know you want me” is so telling I just love this line. Come be someone I can never forget
Yes! My favorite too! Sexy and sad at the same time.
Same. favourite part
Words cannot describe the vibes in their songs.
Melancholic...........and millions of words
Facts. It is in my lovemaking Playlist and has captured some of the most magical moments of my young life.
“Your lips my lips apocalypse” that hits me every time🌼
Fuck Off mee too
Same
Hell yeah me too
Me also
How's "your lips my asshole" hit ya
It's amazing how beautiful his voice is. Coming from a non live version to this, it's literally identical. It's a rarity musicians don't auto tune the hell out of their music. One of my favourite songs.
It's because he doesn't make vocal acrobatics, maybe he does some other stuff with a wider range. But, yeah, his voice is hauntingly soothing
How does he make his voice sound so feminine?
@@holetohell4140 my older brother once told me he heard the voice is supposed to be a tribute to all women. Does not answer your question but certainly makes it even more amazing
@@holetohell4140 he just sings softly and has a high vocal range.
@@holetohell4140 it never sounded like a woman to me
There is something so wistful and languorous about this song. It used to play in a small coffeeshop near my university where I'd like to write and study (Borjo Coffeehouse on Monarch Way), but the place closed down. This song reminds me of freshly-brewed coffee and autumn evenings.
This song easily latches to one of your memories...
wish i could have heard you sing:)
Yeah coffee and autumn goes would go well with this
This song is so amazing 🖤
Listen
th-cam.com/video/dHEgR0aMIn4/w-d-xo.html
Their music has such a dream-like quality. Like you are floating among the clouds
Greg is one of the most genuinely talented and underrated musicians in the industry.
Bruh
Very true. And he is incredibly humble 🥹
I always imagined the vocal guy with long hairs no beard skinny n young and definitely not that masculine
Indeed
so.. basically børns lmao
Omg saaaame i swear!!
Saaaaame 😂😂 and blonde hair blue eyes and his like around 30 year old
mix of femininity + masculinity
everytime I listen to Cigarettes after Sex I wanna fall in love and kiss passionately with my lover. but reality is I've been single for my whole 22 years of existence *cries in singleness*
Dude!!!!! same here :(
@@tringtrong256 glad i'm not alone
@DuKer awww thank you for that. I appreciate it :)
@DuKer :) I believe so too. Hope you're having a wonderful day!
@DuKer oh that's a bummer. hope today is better and the coming days 💛
His voice is like a warm embrace, from a love that I’ve always longed for- but never experienced. This is hauntingly beautiful.🖤
Lots of love ❤
It's crazy how one song made thousands of people feel the same exact feeling.
HERE'S THE LYRICS!
You leapt from crumbling bridges
Watching cityscapes turn to dust
Filming helicopters crashing in the ocean
From way above
Got the music in you baby, tell me why
Got the music in you baby, tell me why
You've been locked in there forever
And they just can't say goodbye
Kisses on the foreheads of the lovers
Wrapped in your arms
You've been hiding them in
Hollowed out pianos left in the dark
Got the music in you baby, tell me why
Got the music in you baby, tell me why
You've been locked in there forever
And they just can't say goodbye
Your lips, my lips, apocalypse
Your lips, my lips, apocalypse
Go and sneak us through the rivers
Flood is rising up on your knees, oh please
Come out and haunt me, I know you want me
Come out and haunt me
Sharing all your secrets with each other
Since you were kids
Sleeping soundly with the locket
That she gave you cutched in your fist
Got the music in you baby, tell me why
Got the music in you baby, tell me why
You've been locked in there forever
And you just can't say goodbye
You've been locked in there forever
And you just can't say goodbye
Oh, oh
When you're all alone
I will reach for you
When you're feeling low
I will be there too
tnx mate
Really🖤
Thankyou for the lyrics, they are wonderfully poetic and with haunting melody just perfection. Love from UK 🇬🇧 ❤️
Thank U ❤
ThankYou
People seriously don't know this is a guy singing? It totally sounds like a dude, albeit a higher register. All that aside, they sound identical on record, wow.
His voice is something more unique than rare. It's wonderful.
You're crazy and in denial. It's sounds like a chick PERIOD
voices can be super genderbendy...but yeah I thought it was a girl too...a sexy girl singing in a lower register...imagine my surprise
ladybugmerringue I had the hottest chick in my mind singing these songs: a dead sexy, skinny goth vamp in all black sighing out the lyrics btwn drags of her cigarette. What a let down to find it's an ugly dude. Also makes me suspect the validity of all his lyrical sexcapades.
they dont use autotune like most of the garbage music bands today, they are themselfs and thats what makes them unique
"Your lips, my lips - Apocalypse "- Love this vibe...simply soothing, makes me nostalgic everytime I listen to this song..
I want to lay on the ground with a lover staring at the stars with this song playing as we both just fall in love. This song gives me nostalgia for something I’ve never had
THIS.
But we still can have, were Alive!
Omg same!
I have never had a girlfriend either and im 40 years old
i did this with my bf and it was magical :)
In every single fu**ing time i listen to apocalypse, i feel like i hear it for the first time
His voice gives me butterflies.
I can gove you butterflies too if you want;)
@@scarecrow9474 😐
How r doing now? This comment is from 2 yrs ago!
@@myrav5816 Doing Fine asf..
Came to Watch this Masterpiece Again
@@shushantshrestha8957 time to watch it again👀
You can tell he's been thru a lot of pain. Such passionate music.
" Ohh When you're all alone, I will reach for you... When you're feeling low, I will be there, too" Lowkey holding back tears at the end every time c :
Ronoc me too!! The ending is my favourite
Gets me every time
Beautiful ugh... i just cried right now
Saaaaaaame....
Same me 😭
I adore this little pause in the end before he starts singing again
It gives me goosebumps and butterflies
time?
your name is funny
@@KennyAMT why ..?
@@ddddeniz 3:42
@Marcus Aurelius ty! :)
The intimacy in this song is priceless 💕
Literally tho
A masterpiece, his voice is so warm...🥰
Your lips my lips apocalypse
Arief Ash my fav line
Best part of the lyrics
Apoca lips
Tus labios, mis labios, apoca labios.
A pack of lips
His voice seems to drift away so effortlessly from deep within so engulfing, warm and mellowing ...this song, specially is such an endorphin rush ))
It's so beautiful, so sultry...yet so innocent :')
Precisely
More effective than Prozac
Yess😭😭
I honestly listen to this before bed, just chilling then I slowly drift off....it’s perfect
Lyrics:
You leapt from crumbling bridges
Watching cityscapes turn to dust
Filming helicopters crashing
In the ocean from way above
Got the music in you, baby
Tell me why
Got the music in you, baby
Tell me why
You've been locked in here forever
And you just can't say goodbye
Kisses on the foreheads of the lovers
Wrapped in your arms
You've been hiding them in hollowed out pianos
Left in the dark
Got the music in you, baby
Tell me why
Got the music in you, baby
Tell me why
You've been locked in here forever
And you just can't say goodbye
Your lips, my lips
Apocalypse
Your lips, my lips
Apocalypse
Go and sneak us through the rivers
Flood is rising up on your knees
Oh, please
Come out and haunt me
I know you want me
Come out and haunt me
Sharing all your secrets with each other
Since you were kids
Sleeping soundly with the locket that she gave you
Clutched in your fist
Got the music in you, baby
Tell me why
Got the music in you, baby
Tell me why
You've been locked in here forever
And you just can't say goodbye
You've been locked in here forever
And you just can't say goodbye
Ooh, oh
When you're all alone
I'll reach for you
When you're feelin' low
I'll be there too
❤ ITS amazing song ,I love it
Thanks mate
This song is so soothing. Like you're living the moment fully without any rush or hurry. It's like the world stops for a second and stare. Just love this song 💕
Very well put
Couldn't have said it better myself
You have no idea how much this song means to me. It’s such a calming song. I just want to lay and stare at the ceiling with my love and just lay.
I’m at a very happy point of my life. I’ve been with the love of my life for a year and a half and this song really sums it up
Eggs.
@@tatumhammell9111 May good things happen to you and your lover where ever you go i had my first crush on a girl in school that i met too and i wish to be with her forever
don’t make me tear up to this comment
I’ll have someone to listen to this with someday... holding hands and just getting swept away in the beautiful and haunting melody. Just sitting there next to each other. Safe. Warm. Happy. :,)
And then sex
dancing slowly in the living room on a warm afternoon
I volunteer if you are still in search 😉
God bless you ♥️
🙃
I feel like they should collaborate with Lana Del Rey since the way they sing are almost similar.That would be amazing!!
OMG YES!!!!
So true 😍
Yaaaaasssssss
oh yes!!
Noo
My perfect camping song , enjoying midnight campfire after rain while listening to CAS is perfect camp vibes for me
[Verse 1]
You leapt from crumbling bridges watching cityscapes turn to dust

You've been locked in here forever and you just can't say goodbye
[Verse 2]
Kisses on the foreheads of the lovers wrapped in your arms
You’ve been hiding them in hollowed out pianos left in the dark
[Chorus]

Tell me why
You've been locked in here forever and you just can't say goodbye
[Bridge]
Your lips

sublyme29 thank you lots !!
Thanks for this
Thanks a lot
holy shit this is the first time i read the lyrics
sublyme29 THANK YOU !!!
This song makes me feel like I’m just floating surrounded by a dark starry night sky, longing for a feeling- or something to give me purpose.
Magiic music
Beautifully said. I feel the same way tho
Why tf cant stop listen this band?
I think the real question is, why should we ever stop listening to this band?
They release endorphins that's why
Because you're gay
me too its like heroine I am addicted!
@@heath9392 no u
I've listened to them for a long time, often late a night. It dawned on me tonight that the band's name perfectly describes their sound.
This song is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard
His voice is reducing my anxiety 😂💜💜💜💜💜
Quite simply one of the most hypnotic, beautiful songs ever written. It will provoke so many memories for people who hear it.
The bass is bold and the melodic tones from the keyboard washes over the ebbing flow of the vocals, guitar, and drum. Very soothing. This is the first time experiencing this band and I'm delighted.
I love this song, I feel like I'm dedicating it to someone I don't know yet, sitting watching the sunset smoking a cigarette feeling like I can have you...
I really love this song. The rhythm, the voice...
This is a song I can play on loop and never tire of. Now I listen to the album on loop. Thanks for this it’s beautiful.
His voice ,the instrument perfect combination!!! 😭❤️
Please come and play in India as well.
They are coming in July 2019 🙂

Wow
I met the girl of my dreams. We spent three years together. I loved her like i haven’t loved anyone before. She was an absolute angel. One day she changed, it seemed overnight. After I had given her everything she wanted she found someone else & left. Her co worker who had chased her for two years finally succeeded. I’m not sure why, but when i listen to this song it brings me peace.
I'm so sorry for you and i'm pretty sure that you was set free of something supposed to be bad
@@larip.8574 I agree, thank you…
There’s something better waiting for you
🍷🥃🍺🥃🍷🍺
Finding this band randomly on youtube, is one of my best discoveries ever.
I searched for this song after i heard it on Detective forst on netflix.
I just wanna cry over and over again with this song, and meanwhile, feel like I'm in another place like I finally found peace...
The Depth of his voice, the Meaningful lyrics, and the serenity with which he is singing the song completely immersed takes me to a different level where there is peace and tranquility...
So exotic, the voice, the beat & the whole thing...
shocked! after searching for the singer.i see the singer was the man who sings much like a woman. wow i love this dude forever
This song and me have lot of memories together
The best lullaby i've ever heard. So eargasm.
I can't believe I just discovered this band. I am in love with them from the first listen.
man! I got goosebumps. one of the best calm and slow song
When listening to Apocalypse, it first brought me back to the opening scene in SUITS at S9E1. That night, I was having a coitus with my fiancée, she told me she fell in love with the song, the rhythm, and the voice.
She couldn’t stop looping it the next day when I was driving her to work
It takes a hot mic and a good mix to sing this way live. Props to the engineer.
Very true
My favourite track off the album, and an absolutely spellbinding performance by the band here. Thanks KEXP for bringing them closer to us!
i agree
His voice is so relaxing I can literally listen to him all my life.
Listening to this while I message my crush, thank you cigarettes
I could fall in love with a pencil.
Damn I was literally about to cry and I read your comment and it had me wheezing. Lmfao thanks!
You made my day ...thanks🙂
His voice is such calming
I thought it was a woman..
He's voice is mindblowing, it takes me to another place..
This live is awesome than record..
That synth wash across the second verse is just sublime.
The smooth voices n grooves of Cigarettes After Sex, Crumbs, and Mac Demarco have been getting me through these rough times with Covid and some of my family members passing. I hope you all are safe and living the best lives you can 🙏👌👍
they deserve a bigger audience like dang theyre talented
"when you're all alone, i will reach for you, when you feeling low, i will be there too" is so romantic 🥺
The minimalism in this is palpable. Also, kudos to the singer. I seriously thought it was a girl singing. Bravo man
this song is so beautiful, it’s always giving me comfort and peace, i wish i discovered them sooner
это все БОМБА!!!! у меня мурашки по коже, впервые когда услышал, думал какая же наверное она красивая (эта певица). но когда увидел, я впал в шок) но этот факт не поменял мое решение, я все еще кайфую от этой музыки!!! с любовью из Ташкента!)
ДАААА
I could listen to them all day long...and remain safe in my own world....
Gosh this song puts me at such peace. Idc what my friends think. The music I love gives me peace and happiness. It's calming not sleepy
❤❤❤
Discovering this band brought me back to being a teenager in the 90s. The wonderful joy of discovering something that makes me excited to listen to the whole catalogue. The excitement of showing this new gem to friends makes me nostalgic and sad.
Gotta make sure this is played at my funeral
Listening to this song reminds me of a girl I kissed at the beach of Mexico under the stars and also the way he says “you got the music in you tell me why” I love that part
APOCALYPSE
You leapt from crumbling bridges watching cityscapes turn to dust
Filming helicopters crashing in the ocean from way above
Got the music in you baby,
Tell me why
Got the music in you baby,
Tell me why
You’ve been locked in here forever & you just can’t say goodbye
Kisses on the foreheads of the lovers wrapped in your arms
You’ve been hiding them in hollowed out pianos left in the dark…
Your lips,
My lips,
Apocalypse
Go & sneak us through the rivers,
Flood is rising up on your knees
Oh please…
Come out & haunt me
I know you want me
Come out & haunt me
Sharing all your secrets with each other since you were kids
Sleeping soundly with the locket that she gave you clutched in your fist…
When you’re all alone
I will reach for you
When you’re feeling low
I will be there too
He’s a great guy, I saw an interview with him, and the funny is that he really speaks faster than an average person do, he’s got a silky wonderfully voice
This is just hypnotic, dreamy stuff. I am not putting this on my "driving music" playlist because of the likelihood of liability issues!!
I've always been alone and I have no friends so listening to his music made me feel better, this music really saved me from ending my life so I thank
Just wow! They sound just as great live as they do with the studio version.
This song makes me feel like I am missing a love I've never had... It's incredible the kind of emotions music can bring out in us... Music will always fascinate me for this reason.
Slow death. But who cares. We love Apocalypse.
I want more people to hear this song so they know what we “feel”.
WHAT A DREAMY SONG 🥰
I travel for work every year. I listen to this song while driving to my destination with tears running down my cheeks thinking of my family I leave behind. I LOVE this song. Genius. I’m hoping I can make their concert this year. I swear I would cry hearing this in person.
Listen to it before going to bed ...
Thank me later
Later
It’s the best isn’t it ❤️
Tf! I'm bawling my eyes rn, it's all your fault!!!
agree 100% !
Listening to this song during the second deadly wave of COVID :( It breaks my heart! God bless us all.. Especially that line "Kisses on the foreheads of the lovers wrapped in your arms.." I pray no one loses their loved ones in this pandemic.
Its me🥺
You have great taste
Thank you 😢
Well....
Wtf
