This tune gives me goosebumps. It takes me back to when I lived in East L.A. Everywhere you turned everything you'd see, was old, beat and mexicanish. 20 years later and it's still the same. It's art
That moment when you realize that's Flor de Toloache singing back up...YES!! Go check them out, they're awesome as well! Love seeing chicanos supporting chicanos!
FRIENDSHIP (IS A SMALL BOAT IN A STORM) LYRICS [Verse 1] You've got an open heart So you share what's inside Thinking that all is said in confidence But then you realize [Chorus] (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) The sun is getting heavy (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) The cold is breaking my heart (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) This boat is incredibly unsafe (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) It's falling apart [Verse 2] Now play your part You're along for the ride Thinking that all is said in confidence Yeah you realize [Chorus] (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) Now I'm swimming in the sea (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) Floundering desperately (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) Tryin' to get a grip on my emotions (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) I'm falling apart [Bridge] Happy to know until the clouds start singing The wind is high and the waves scary Oh lord, only you know, I've had enough [Chorus] (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) My momma said don't trust nobody (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) Cause they'll stab you in the back and take your money (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) You live and you learn (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) If you wanna live, you better learn so you don't burn (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) Yeah (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) Better start swimming, brother (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) Cause I'm drowning, I'm sinking brother (Friendship is a small boat in a storm) You live and you learn That friendship is a small boat in a storm.
Sick track! Can't wait to hear the next album, imma pre-order it this weekend when I get paid! It was nice finally meeting y'all at the Beach Goth after party this year! #FreedomIsFree
I heard this before on Colorado public radio but I was really diggin' it when I heard it on the radio tonight and had to TH-cam it when I got home. Absolutely awesome!
Xavier The X-Man more radio stations need to get this music out there.. there is so much of this good music but I feel like main stream radio stations don't play what is really good.. anyway thank you for adding it to your show me xman
heard this for the first time on the radio today, In fact I discovered this band on the radio. They're good stations you just gotta find 'em. At lot of college stations will play all sorts of music.
hasta que encontre musica refrescante que vale la pena escuchar ,porque ya pensaba que se habian acabado los creativos , gracias por hacerme creer en la musica otra vez.

Heard these dudes like 3 years ago and they have yet to produce anything bad. They just get better and better. Thank you Chicano batman.
This song got me out from being homeless. Love this band!

They are awesome! I was first introduced to them through Tiny Desk and their work with The Arcs.
FRIENDSHIP (IS A SMALL BOAT IN A STORM) LYRICS
[Verse 1]
You've got an open heart
So you share what's inside
Thinking that all is said in confidence
But then you realize
[Chorus]
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
The sun is getting heavy
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
The cold is breaking my heart
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
This boat is incredibly unsafe
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
It's falling apart
[Verse 2]
Now play your part
You're along for the ride
Thinking that all is said in confidence
Yeah you realize
[Chorus]
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
Now I'm swimming in the sea
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
Floundering desperately
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
Tryin' to get a grip on my emotions
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
I'm falling apart
[Bridge]
Happy to know until the clouds start singing
The wind is high and the waves scary
Oh lord, only you know, I've had enough
[Chorus]
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
My momma said don't trust nobody
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
Cause they'll stab you in the back and take your money
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
You live and you learn
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
If you wanna live, you better learn so you don't burn
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
Yeah
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
Better start swimming, brother
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
Cause I'm drowning, I'm sinking brother
(Friendship is a small boat in a storm)
You live and you learn
That friendship is a small boat in a storm.
thank you
You're a hero. Thanks!
I'm in. feels like the 70's vibe refreshed
Two words...FUCKIN SICK!!!!!
I am digging this sound and song! Has an old school vibe to it. The lead singer has a fantastic voice! Saw this video on LATV videos2go.
This would be a Top 40 hit if this was 1978. Great jam. Music still lives...left of the dial
Ch.B always makes me smile. CA the sonic pioneer. Taking up where Adrian Belew left off after picking up where Jimi left off. Big Respect
His voice in this song is giving me Smokey Robinson vibes
Jeannette Perez I was thinking about that song life of the party lol
Also Ralfie Pagan they sound identical
Jeannette Perez yooo hahaha facts
Sounds like the perfect mix of Smokey and Curtis Mayfield
This is the greatest rock n' roll band in America today!
The movement and flavor of this music feels like a connection of traveling with others for the same cause. I like this song and this band.
How has this only gotten 310,000 views? Loving Chicano Batman from Australia.....
gracias Mitú por presentarme a esta banda.
I love chicano batman so much!!
Thank you for telling us.
What TALENT!
Chicano batman and Santana would be great combo

I just discovered these guys not too long ago and they are sick. This is my jam.
My fav band por siempre!

Definitely consulted by the consultants. Great structure, the song!
Real good falsetto singing style, kind of a distorted Hammond organ that scrapes the back of my brain, funky production, low-fi video, yeah, I like.
Playing you on the alternative station out here in KC! Keep the jams coming and stop by here sometime! Digging this jam!!!!!
No idea why these guys came up in my recommended videos, but damn I'm glad they did...
these guys will be legends
And yet, 2 years later, they're not.

Thank you KEXP.org for introducing me to these guys!
Such a beautiful band.! Thank you for your awesomely bodacious show at the gothic last year.
Glad they let the guitar player loose a bit on this track. They usually give him a short solo, but he seemed to open up a bit here, he's badass.
love you guys x and your funkyass Cali groove.
LOVE THIS SONG AND THEM!!!!!!! They're freaking amazing!
