these people make amazing content with almost every band/musician they take on. they reveal the essence of each artist and lay it bare for us to view and listen in a completely open and naked setting. so vulnerable but still strong and powerful.
"I'm so blessed to have spent that time with my family and the friends that I love. In my short life, I have met so many people I deeply care for." Amazing and deeply moving.
cant believe this videos as old as me that is crazy!! i’m so blessed to spent time with my family and the friends i love in my short life i have met so many people i deeply care for 😁
"i'm so blessed to have spent this time with my family and the friends i love, in my short life i have met so many people i deeply care for" this is so uplifting.
take away show means that the artists don't just play at club or a concert hall but they take the shows with them. so they play in the subway or in a flat of a friend or something like this as you can see in the video. they also often use unusually things to perform their music which makes it even greater.

I'm quite certain that this is my favorite Takeaway show so far. The spontaneity & sheer fun the band is having just makes the video shine. :) Love it.
This is the way you gain respect as a musician, I bet no one in that metro disliked this, although they might not even like this kind of music. This is how music should be, pure and from the heart!
Loved it! See, seeing performances like these: pure, raw, and genuine, they're the best. I just love how they had a good time with it and how everyone was happy. Hell, made me smile. :) Thank you LaBlogotheque for EXISTING.
I really love this video... They are wonderful. I was lucky enough to see them live in Argentina last month (haven't heard them before) and they were absolutely amazing... A great surprise!!
hehe you pretty much nailed it and also, a take-away-show is where bands like YEASAYER, Seasick Steve, etc. go out and play live on the streets i can send you the link :)
Yeh, "LaBlogotheque" organize these take-away-shows only in Paris. im french, and th next time i'll come to paris, i'll seriously thinking about take th subway at night, thats for sure!
farking yell.. that's something else.. phenomenal.. not sure why it has all of a sudden vanished from the blogotheque website though?? i have evil thought regards this.. wish i didn't.. this is something from another world..
i dont understand why they dont do a whole album all stripped down to the bone like these songs.they are obviously geniouses at it.these guys know exactly what the fuck they are doingPERIOD
@windowzombie no, i'm not saying that, of course a good voice is talent, i just mean being able to perform in such a situation isn't something anyone can do, regardless of their singing abilities, this is just ALL THE MORE proof of their talent and abilities as performers
12 years later and this remains one of my most beloved clips on the internet. Campaign to bring Yeasayer back.
I come back to this a few times each year just to remind myself I gotta live a little. This and their other video.
100% agreed
This thing make me so joyful every time.. I hope they’ll never delete it and that I’ll be able to watch it again in 10 years, 20 years, 30 years...
6 years later and I still return to watch this all.the.time. Simply brilliant.
10 years later and I do too
@@silviarutland7624 Memories
Same. Still one of the best performances.
it's amazing.
12 years later and here I am still, pure magic
I don't think yeasayer realizes that these two takeaway videos are some of the best music videos ever made.
these people make amazing content with almost every band/musician they take on. they reveal the essence of each artist and lay it bare for us to view and listen in a completely open and naked setting. so vulnerable but still strong and powerful.
15 years later and I'm back here to say this is still the case.
Here we are, nearly 2022 and these gentlemen are still in my favorite acts - cheers from Belgium / Vermont USA
This is more metal than any other thing I’ve ever seen. Miss these talented guys terribly.
"I'm so blessed to have spent that time with my family and the friends that I love.
In my short life, I have met so many people I deeply care for."
Amazing and deeply moving.
Breaks my heart that these guys called it quits. Amazing work
cant believe this videos as old as me that is crazy!! i’m so blessed to spent time with my family and the friends i love in my short life i have met so many people i deeply care for 😁
Just found this 12 years later..
Better late than never, am I right? Guys you're amazing
"i'm so blessed to have spent this time with my family and the friends i love,
in my short life i have met so many people i deeply care for"
this is so uplifting.
they are soooo incredibly inspiring.
man im not even gonna try to express how awesome that was

[Intro x2]
I went out, past the willow and the well
Caught my breath upon the hill
At the edge of the domain
And I went down, and fell down
And when I got up
I’m at the red cave
And without sound as if I had been put under a spell
She led me to her whirlpool
Warm despite a winter’s day
[Hook x8]
Mary’s house in the hollow of the white hazel
Rapid whirlpool
And the church of the red cave
[Outro x5]
I’m so blessed to have spent the time
With my family
And the friends I love
In my short life
I have met
So many people I deeply care for
This video is an absolute treasure
I'm quite certain that this is my favorite Takeaway show so far. The spontaneity & sheer fun the band is having just makes the video shine. :) Love it.
this is music at its most natural rawness. amazing video
I have a comment on here from 4 years ago...and I still come back to watch this sometimes. It always leaves me with a great feeling.
these guys are the meaning of cool.
that is just cool in every sense of the word.
biggest regret of my life, i wish i was there.
Who would thumbs down this video? How can you not smile
This is the way you gain respect as a musician, I bet no one in that metro disliked this, although they might not even like this kind of music. This is how music should be, pure and from the heart!
Absolutely fantastic
I am so blessed to have found this video, watch intensely, and like it, playing on repeat I have been, so many artists I appreciate this for!
Same here, man. I'm kinda freaking out. Those harmonies in 'Red Cave' are just wrecking me.
well if there's a little bit of heaven on youtube it was definitely this. i heart Yeasayer
These guys are as cool as they are talented. And I don't think they even know how amazing they are.
I'm completely stunned.
This brings up the best of life!
This smile will last for another few hours i think :)
I completely agree with you. After a few months now I'm still returning to see it again :D
i HONESTLY love this video more than a lot of my favorite movies... seriously, it's pure magic
WONDERFUL!!! Great show in the parisian subway! I hope they brought joy in the heart of the people they met...
Loved it! See, seeing performances like these: pure, raw, and genuine, they're the best. I just love how they had a good time with it and how everyone was happy. Hell, made me smile. :) Thank you LaBlogotheque for EXISTING.
Ptain encore un super trip!!
Merci
I love videos like this. Only thing is that I get so jealous because look at the fun they are having! Amazing.

These vids introduced me to Yeasayer.
I really love this video... They are wonderful. I was lucky enough to see them live in Argentina last month (haven't heard them before) and they were absolutely amazing... A great surprise!!
What I would have done to be on that metro!
Awesome band.
so pure, so amazing, very few bands could pull this off
same.
this video is what made me get into yeasayer, i love them now.
Thank you big brother for telling me about La Blagotheque and A Take Away Show 8 years ago.
I believe that more people need to watch this.
they look like theyre having so much fun! i wish i was on that train!
That is one of the best things I've ever seen.
i know! absolutely beautiful...
When that guy slides down the stairway and the singer cracks up laughing ;D Love that ^^
this is timeless
Yeasyer, one of the best bands of the last year
This is so happy and awesome!
That line put me to tears really...
Amazing! Best take away!

Genial, genial, genial!!!
@stickydog480 Very well put.
I want to go live in france just incase i happen upon a band performing on the subway or somewhere for LaBlogotheque
Yeh, "LaBlogotheque" organize these take-away-shows only in Paris. im french, and th next time i'll come to paris, i'll seriously thinking about take th subway at night, thats for sure!
farking yell.. that's something else.. phenomenal.. not sure why it has all of a sudden vanished from the blogotheque website though?? i have evil thought regards this.. wish i didn't.. this is something from another world..
@grahams112 Preferably on a DVD also!
very impressive concert attendance. all in Portland?
We're having fun in the metroooooooooo!
dont worry it wont
its infinite
Love this video
It really is talent when all you need is a spoon, a railing and your voices to sound good.
Oh! Thank you! A light bulb just went off in my head!
Who's still here in 2020?
I cannot believe this was 15yrs ago
Redcave will be played at my funeral.
i wish they would do a live album... they sound so much better live... even though the studio one is also amazing
@raulesgrande other people were too....i guess it's allowable in france(probably most of europe in fact)
i dont understand why they dont do a whole album all stripped down to the bone like these songs.they are obviously geniouses at it.these guys know exactly what the fuck they are doingPERIOD
I wish it was like this when I get the subway to work...
best. ever.
@windowzombie no, i'm not saying that, of course a good voice is talent, i just mean being able to perform in such a situation isn't something anyone can do, regardless of their singing abilities, this is just ALL THE MORE proof of their talent and abilities as performers
ha! I love these versions better than the album ones :p
these are just TOUCHING.
&LaBlogotheque is only in Paris right? *sighs* bummer.
wow
ahh heck yeah!
They did it again...!
i felt the magic moment
as they're walking to the metro, it's "No Need to Worry."
when they're on the metro, it's "Red Cave"
Holy shit.
hey, what songs are they?
lucky civilians
the girl in the back is loving it bahah!
