The time signature is beautiful. The theme is in 23/8: one group of 5/8, then 3 groups of 6/8. Then groups of 3/8 occasionally added to 6/8. At 1:00, at "Winter's passing," there are three groups of 6/8, followed by a group of 9/8. Then, at 1:11, when he sings, "No one will ever know," it's back to 23/8 (one group of 5/8, then 3 groups of 6/8). Same thing at 2:21, at "No one will ever know," it's another 23/8 (one group of 5/8, then 3 groups of 6/8). Then it's 6/8 while she plays castinets.
The lead singer is so cool. I met him after they played their set at Cafe Du Nord. They opened for S. Carey, and during the headliner he was just hanging out, and super cordial. Oh, and they rock.
@StarvingSound, actually @kittenfetus666 is correct. Radiohead's "In Rainbows" was released in the U.S. on TBD Records, the same label as Other Lives' most recent album. Thom went to one of their shows, loved it, and invited them to open for Radiohead. True story!
Lyrics: As I lay my head down upon that grassy field winter’s passing soon will fall. no one will ever know. the end. the end. the end is all we need. As I lay my head down upon that grassy field you won’t find me I’ll be gone. No one will ever know. oh, look at the years going by no, troubles come into your life oh, now that you finally have found the end The end. The end is all we need.

@ThomRadioheadYorke Ufff, tu nombre de usuario (Y) jajaja, qué buenos gustos, viejo. Hombre, yo estoy ansioso por ya escucharlos también, tengo buenas expectativas de Caribou de igual forma. Saludos, un gusto.
Hey! Maybe I’m late to reply, but he seems to be saying “the air” throughout the entire song. Maybe the lyrics we see on websites got it wrong. So it’s “the air”. Not “the end”.

This live version is even better than the studio...
This is the true moment, when a good band as this one shines!!!

Lyrics:
As I lay my head down
upon that grassy field
winter’s passing
soon will fall.
no one will ever know.
the end.
the end.
the end is all we need.
As I lay my head down
upon that grassy field
you won’t find me
I’ll be gone.
No one will ever know.
oh, look at the years going by
no, troubles come into your life
oh, now that you finally have found the end
The end.
The end is all we need.
one of the best bands i've seen live. amazing.
semplicemente stupenda!!!! una bella sorpresa!!!
BEAUTIFUL & AWESOME ... Big THANKS ... 8)

Yes!!!
hello new friends. i've discovered you just now, by looking for a cover for leonard cohen's partisan song.
you're amazing. i don't think i'll sleep tonight
Very interesting band, deserving to be put in the same rank as The National, I think... ;-)
@Ongymusic los escuche en Phoenix, me dejaron impresionado
Fucking amazing
@etejuanete3 I will see them with Radiohead on April 17th! I cannot wait, two great bands!!
@etejuanete3, not sure that's the story. Try looking up TBD Records history on Wikipedia.
Моя любовь..

At 03:08, did he say "the air is all we need"? I thought it was supposed to be "the end is all we need". Someone help please haha

less than a thousand veiws. yes its still indie!!!!!!!!!!
@kittenfetus666 Pretty sure Radiohead isn't on a record label anymore. They release music on their own.

remember when you opened Radiohead's concert at Mexico City.
