The first time I heard this song, I was on a summer road trip with two friends. We were driving through the Alberta prairies, weaving through canola fields and cottonwood copses towards a festival site down near the border. I remember watching endless fields of yellow flowers pass by, laughing and bantering and thinking something to the tune of "What a perfect song for this." Eventually, we stumbled upon a dirt road that led down into a valley belonging to what I think was the Oldman River, or perhaps one of its tributaries. We parked, got out, and ended up spending some six or seven hours soaking up the sun. Caught a pile of crayfish, built a fire to cook them over. It was a genuinely perfect day. And whenever I hear this song, I go back to that. Flying down dusty roads. Catching crays. Swimming in the river. Dancing. I really love this song.
This is still one of the few songs that I remember exactly where I was the first time I heard it. January of 2013. This song takes me back instantly every time I hear it.
He's a writer. She's his lover. He's writing about the day they first met, along the way he gets lost in the recesses of his own memory. Still in a trance, he goes and jumps in the lake(it's what they did, the day they first met). The water brings him back to reality, a reality in which she's been dead for years.
This song takes me back to my uni days.. coming home early from class..chilling in my 14th floor balcony, overlooking a beautiful view as I blast this on my speaker... the gentle afternoon breeze kissing my face... what a time!!!!! ❤
milo greene is a legend in indie rock music. the performance off this masterpiece is magnificent. i takes back memories from the better old days from someone who he truly love.
I can't even describe how this song makes me feel, I feel as though its so nostalgic, it reminds me of memories I never made if that makes any sense at all. I love milo greene and this will forever be my favourite song
this is the kind of song you listen to on your record player early in the morning while sitting outside drinking coffee. okay, maybe not, but this song (and video) has an ethereal feel to it that really does seem too perfect. four years later and I'm still obsessed. On another note, I saw them live AND OH MY GOSH. talk about perfection.
If u like this song, here's a list where u can find another ones with the same feeling: She get outside - Low Vertical The Paper Kites - Bloom Message to Bears- Mountains The head and the heart - Every song xD Kings of convenience - Misread Hollow Coves - Coastline and In the woods Funeral Suites - Hands down Marble Sounds - The Time to sleep, No one gave us the right Blind Pilot - The Story I Heard Benjamín Francis - 1904 Dustin Tebutt - The Breach Syd Matters - Obstacles If someome knows more songs like this, please comment, it would be awesome.

Woke up late at night with 3 words in my mind: "Takes Me Away". Started searching in the web and found this ;O I dont really remember when i heard this song for the first time. Oh my god, this was an amazing experience, thank you ;D
just heard this on the radio, and let me tell you when the radio plays real music that's speaks to your soul you have to chase the song. So I did and I'm so glad love this band!
My oh my, this could be the theme song of my favorite film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. The lines about the house chipping...the idea of not having known the person at all. That’s the movie. I’m in love with all of this. Can’t believe I just found this.
Your house that sits behind me Is covered in ivy green The windows that we watch from Are old and chipping at the beam It takes me away Takes me away Takes me away It takes me away Takes me away Takes me away The scent you wear moves in lines From your apartment into mine You act like you don't know me My god, you tempt my anxious mind And it takes me away Takes me away Takes me away It takes me away Takes me away Takes me away Would it be much better if I knew, nothing about you Would it be much better if I knew, nothing about you Would it be much better if I knew, nothing about you Would it be much better if I knew, nothing about you I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I
I've gone through so much pain during past year I can't even think properly.. but this song kinda reminds me of the goodness I could experience. I'm still thankful for it :)
The first time i heard of them, they were actually doing a local interview here in sd years ago! i work at a hotel and they needed a small little spot to conduct their interview and i offered them our lobby. Both Robbie and Marlana where so down to earth and so humble! i fell in love with their music after listening perform at i believe was Casbah that night. If Milo Greene reads this it will make my day and i just wanted to let you guys know that i still faithfully play your music here in the lobby! Cheers!
I think this she represents someone who as soon as he fell in love (as soon as they dove in together) with who suddenly wasn't there (they disappeared from his life/ didn't reciprocate the feelings).
First time heard this song 6 years ago when going through my first ever heartbreak, and here YT suggests this song when i am healing from another one ✨
Was watching supernatural and heard a super catchy song at the end of one of the episodes. Turned out to be "what's the matter" next I found 1957. Really like Milo Green wished I'd known years ago!
Your house that sits behind me Is covered in ivy green The windows that we watch from Are old and chipping at the beam It takes me away Takes me away Takes me away The scent you wear moves in lines From your apartment into mine You act like you don't know me My god, you tempt my anxious mind It takes me away Takes me away Takes me away Would it be much better if I knew nothing about you Would it be much better if I knew nothing about you I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I... I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I... It takes me away Takes me away Takes me away
I literally just woke up and I had listened to this song some odd 3 years back, I guess. I really liked it but it left me with a feeling of longing so I would not listen to it often. But yesterday night I had weird dreams where I was feeling more emotions than I do in real life and then I just needed to find this song. Thank god it was in my liked videos.
Hey everyone! I know the two singers Marlana and Andrew! When I was 10 my mom took me over to their house for a private concert they were having. i even got marlana's autograph! It was going great and about to get better, before they started me and my little brother got to meet them. In the concert they sang a song called... THE PATRICK SONG! Oh my gosh, everyone was cracking up! Haaaa.... well enough about me, I LOVE YOU ANDREW AND MARLANA!!! KEEP MAKING AMAZING MUSIC! Lolz lots of love ;)
Milo Greene: Some of the most inspiring music I have heard in a long time. So much simplicity, yet there is something complex about the music as well. LOVE THEM. That moment when a song can make you both sad and happy at the same time.
For people wondering what happened to the girl: I believe t hat the girl was just a part of his story, but he fell in love with her. The ending depicts him drowning in the reality of her not existing. I believe this because the girl almost seems like a dream throughout the music video. Also because nothing sexual happened between them, it was only romantic
Liam Silverman What did I say that I need to chill about? I was just saying what I thought. I didn't say anything disrespectful or say that was the only meaning. I was agreeing with you. You're the one that needs to chill.
Oh my what a throwback to being a teenager... I’m sat here looking through some of my old Spotify playlist and definitely remember being really into this song....had to see the video
Heard this on loose end while my mum was listening to radio 4, but we missed the name and band!! Just spent ages looking for it but now I've tracked it down I can't stop listening to it!! GREAT SONG!
Im heare in 2017 at 5:30 of the morning thinking of these words ¨would it be much better if I knew nothing about you¨ and here are the results of my serch.... THIS IS A GREAT SONG
I posted this song when I fell in love with it a couple years ago, my mom liked it and was born in 1950, she passed a year ago at 66 and I still remember how she liked it
"The scent you wear moves in lines from your apartment into mine. You act like you don't know me, my god, you tempt my anxious mind!" "Would it be much better if I knew nothing about you?" Really falling for this song. They remind me a bit of The Civil Wars.

I don't know what all the angry comments are for. It's a catchy song and they've got great voices. Can't hate on bands who sound like other bands, every band sounds similar to another band...that's just how it works.
Suddenly I found this song OMG definitely love this sooooo muchhhh I couldn’t stop crying for 2 weeks cuz my boyfriend broke up with me. When i heard this song it’s reminds me many things about him.... everything’s gonna better soon, hope so...
@benniggo not sure if u get this mention, but im kinda high and for some reason i got on your comment wich made me laugh a bit Anyway here is to the random asss comment, have a good one
@@stefsmet8913 Not sure if you get this mention, but I'm high and my car is leaking oil. I thought it's funny that I'm here 3 years later. Anyways cheers to the random comments, take it easy.
So many summers ago, an old love of mine, put this on an old MP3 player I had. i used that thing so much it broke, but it lasted longer than her love for me. This song I will love forever.

the way you told the story was fantastic. you’re an amazing storyteller
Great story there. Thanks for sharing

Aw man now I'm sad.
Omg no :(
it would make sense. perhaps the wig, and the cigarette, let us know she had cancer.
Watch MODDISON, it's the full story :)
is this an assumption? If so, it's a very good one.
This has a serious Of Monsters & Men vibe to it, awesome!
Amit Ben-Avi true! i love that band
I truly thought it was them! I'm looking for this song in ages
No I cracked the code...
i agree 😍🎶
The moment i heard the first line of this song I quickly scrolled through the comments if someone else has same opinion.

It happened the same with me
I had the same experience with Jeremy zuckers everyday. Completely perplexed by waking up with a song in my head.
Mateusz Bączek ok let’s go away together ❤️
fuck off
I’ve been looking for this song for three years after hearing it once and now that I’ve finally found it it’s the best feeling ever
those moment are glorious.
You could've just started searching from 1950 to 1999
just heard this on the radio, and let me tell you when the radio plays real music that's speaks to your soul you have to chase the song. So I did and I'm so glad love this band!
This song is proof that there is so much great music out there, you just need to find it
My oh my, this could be the theme song of my favorite film Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. The lines about the house chipping...the idea of not having known the person at all. That’s the movie. I’m in love with all of this. Can’t believe I just found this.
Yeeeees I think the same as you
Your house that sits behind me
Is covered in ivy green
The windows that we watch from
Are old and chipping at the beam
It takes me away
Takes me away
Takes me away
It takes me away
Takes me away
Takes me away
The scent you wear moves in lines
From your apartment into mine
You act like you don't know me
My god, you tempt my anxious mind
And it takes me away
Takes me away
Takes me away
It takes me away
Takes me away
Takes me away
Would it be much better if I knew, nothing about you
Would it be much better if I knew, nothing about you
Would it be much better if I knew, nothing about you
Would it be much better if I knew, nothing about you
I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I

I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I
I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I
I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I
This was the first song I ever felt truly connected to, and still probably 3+ years later I still love it so so much
Who's here because of the cmt in "Yellow Cab" by DPR Live? Bless us we've just met another masterpiece ❤️
I've gone through so much pain during past year I can't even think properly.. but this song kinda reminds me of the goodness I could experience. I'm still thankful for it :)
may u overcome the pain :)
I've been chasing the dragon of the feeling of listening to this song the first time for years. Damn.
10 years and I still love this song, it’s blowing up on tik tok and it gives me such a feeling knowing I’m never wrong.. just early
I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I...
I'll go, I'll go, I'll go I...
It takes me away
Takes me away
Takes me away
Their voices are heaven....

awe this is sweet
Makes me miss things I never even experienced.
Not sure what brought me back to this song, but I'm glad. There is something about this song I can't put my finger on that's spectacular.

As long as the wind blows, and the tree's are green. My heart belongs to you
swiftly through the trees and the sun but water untouched
Nejdokonalejší kapela.. Nejdokonalejší písnička a vůbec všechny! Dokonalé!!!!
thank you to grey's anatomy for introducing me to this wonderful group. i can always rely on that show to play some great indie music
Agreed!

I think the beauty of this video is that it leaves it up to interpretation, to mean most to every sort of person
I love this song more than I love myself.
words can’t express how much i love this song
Check out Milo Green's MODDISON film for the full story featuring all the songs from their album! Link to the film is in the video description.
I've seen milo greene so many times, but the time they toured with stars yearssssss ago, was something I will remember forever. Such an amazing tour.
my god, you tempt my anxious mind.
I literally just woke up and I had listened to this song some odd 3 years back, I guess. I really liked it but it left me with a feeling of longing so I would not listen to it often.

"Would be much better if I knew nothing about you"
"Would IT be much better if I knew nothing about you"
and it seems more like a question. changes the meaning quite a bit.
This song is so unique and genuine. TRUE talent wrote and performed this.
I've been listening to this since 2014 and i didn't know they have music video lol
it's just a part of moddison (shortfilm)
Me too haha
This is one of the greatest songs from Milo Greene. 1957, Whats the Matter and Take a Step are my favorites
Im upset about the fact that it took me 7 years to discover this amazing track
Sounds like a song Shameless would've used for there show I love this song
I was searching for " summer of 69 " but by mistake i got this Beautiful masterpiece! 😍😍💙💙💙
