Brilliant!!! This has me and all my friends in the background!! Thanks for the memory. Glad we all bullied them into doing this, if a little guilty at the time.
I just discovered the song and I was thinking exactly the same. Apparently, good bands will always have that live version of a good song, that will be much better than album version.
i come back to this video every once in a while,,,,,,, never fails to blow me away! i love seeing their younger selves. thanks for uploading this, for real!
@mMmmc0ffee Never edited. There is a similar video out there as recorded by the professionals with their boom and high-tech camera. Mine is from my piddly little digital still camera. Still, no chattering, just waves.
I hope they'll perform again on the sandy beach of Minehead, for the second Fans edition! Man, only have to wait for 3 weeks :) looking forward to it again!
aww this is just magic...I wish they'd done this at The Fans Strike Back...down the beach again. a number of people at the front for the performance at said festival did ask...
It is recorded by Daniel Rossen (as an unreleased solo track), but you're right, it is an adaptation of a traditional American folk song that Grizzly Bear perform.
After a little looking into the origin of the song it looks like Odetta is the singer famous for it, but really it's a traditional American folk song, probably of British origin.
@jrs89 it's not pointless to dress however you want to, or enjoy the bands you want to, or hang around the people you want to. and i'd actually say this video shows that everyone really doesn't end up doing the same thing.
i missed them at lollapalooza to save a good spot for Radiohead and i missed them again before Radiohead in cleveland because the car holding my tickets was late. it eats at me a little bit everyday when i think about it. i hope Department of Eagles tours for In Ear Park.
18/08/2019: i simply won't take anything else (oh but you will, you love this all too much), there'll be no flailing of the heartstrings ('no falling ribbon in the end') just my quiet and staying for this one thing i want now (well then, good luck)
This handheld "camera phone" video is perhaps the best ever recorded. I have watched it every year for the last 10 years. it continues holds up.
@@stephendoyle3542 back again in 2024
times flies. .. I was listening this video in my lates 20s now I m 40s. Nostalgic!
Grizzly bear singing on a beach at sunset = heaven.
What a great crowd! No-one was talking or anything!
Very rare and special.
Hello from 2021 - still loving this video through lockdown etc. Beautiful.
Daniel has the voice of an honest troubadour. And Ed's voice is just heartbreakingly beautiful. Great contrast and great combination all at once.
This video is so amazing. I come back a few times every year just to be at peace.
the same !
firs time a saw it, that was on myspace !
i keep coming back here.. this is just such an incredibly gorgeous performance.
something so special about an intimate performance like that by such a talented group. And right there on the deep blue sea. beautiful.
This was the first thing I ever saw by Grizzly Bear. Since then, it's been 3 years, and they're the only thing I listen to.
Lilly Neal same here actually lol
A magical moment caught forever
Looks like heaven
yeah...true..
Almost... where is Jesus? Hmm..
Brilliant!!! This has me and all my friends in the background!! Thanks for the memory. Glad we all bullied them into doing this, if a little guilty at the time.
Superb. Wonderful Harmonies.
I come back to this video all the time. Good to see my comment again. What a beautiful song and how time flies.
I just met these guys tonight. They are no doubt the sweetest and most humbling people to grace this earth.
omg, why so talented? every time i listen to them makes me think that - yes, they are, by far, my favorite band.
One of my favorite songs. Makes me cry tears of awe and happiness
Still watching this
Very hypnotic sounds...loved it...
I love the ocean.
thanks guys..i could feel the love...
A magical moment
I thought the album version of this was good but this is so so much better. Those harmonies are perfect
I just discovered the song and I was thinking exactly the same. Apparently, good bands will always have that live version of a good song, that will be much better than album version.
Instant standard...very beautiful...
Much respect...
i love this band so much. possibly the best band ive come across so far in the 00's. i
Yes brother spot on. Love seeing you here
@@dongvermine Jesus, good job finding a 16 year old comment from me 😂😂
@@NapoleonBlownapartMMA you knew what was what!
@@dongvermine 😎😎
I saw Grizzly Bear at the Music Hall of Williamsburg a few weeks ago. That concert changed my life.
Wow-great stuff, wish I was there.This band are going to be massive in 09.
for real
They bring some sort of peace to me in very unsettling times. ❤️
My plan in life is to listen to this band until the end of time...
I love the way the camera goes away by the end showing the beautiful view. Nice shot camera man
one of the more beautiful videos I've seen
This is what it's all about. Right here.
The artist is Daniel Rossen of Grizzly Bear (his solo project). I missed this and it makes me want to cry.
i come back to this video every once in a while,,,,,,, never fails to blow me away! i love seeing their younger selves. thanks for uploading this, for real!
Destined to ride the tides of harmony and follow the currents of melody.
I feel that in a previous life, the story of this lyrics must have applied to me, because this sweet, damn song grips me every time.
I love this video, I come back to it often, thank you.
Thanks thanks thanks!! this song round in my head everyday and finally fond this magical moment!! i wish i was there
What I'd give to be there at that moment...

i saw them in DC, and after seeing them i realize just how incredible their harmonies are.
Amazing. The best part is when they all start harmonizing with eachother.
I'm obsessed. I've listened to it every day since I discovered it. Goregeous melody
This is such a gem.
I hope they'll perform again on the sandy beach of Minehead, for the second Fans edition! Man, only have to wait for 3 weeks :) looking forward to it again!
This video shows them to not only be great musicians, but great guys as well. You're a lucky guy nodmonkey.
Why is this my favorite video on youtube
What a gorgeous performance
17 years ago?! I can’t be this old now
WOW!!! absolute genious, thx for posting and biggup to bbc for hooking in with that tv trailer. gonna hunt down their cd.
finally, some sense!
amen to you, ekincubus.
I'll never get tired or bored or grizzly bear.
Hands down Grizzly Bear and Beirut are the best bands on this planet.
I adore Beirut as well - always wanted to see GB and Beirut together. Have you heard the impromptu cover of Knife by Beirut? Beautiful!!
Nice job backing out of the group at the end. Sweet touch.
I want to live inside this video.
I fell in love with this band
i like your brother. he sings great!
aww this is just magic...I wish they'd done this at The Fans Strike Back...down the beach again. a number of people at the front for the performance at said festival did ask...
I have came back to this year after year
i love them so much
Saw this on Friday on channel 4 when they showed the ATP film, most interesting film it was
This is just soo good.
such a beautiful song
just beautiful
It is recorded by Daniel Rossen (as an unreleased solo track), but you're right, it is an adaptation of a traditional American folk song that Grizzly Bear perform.
one of the best bands on the planet.
Bro I lived back then and cameras were not hat bad in quality holy cow
This has my brother in it. (Chris Taylor of Grizzly Bear)
Your brother is an inspiration. You should be so proud of him.
bro your brother is a genius
Holly shit, 16 years ago
Great video, as special moment indeed
Great vid! Thanks for sharing.
I really like this.
one of my fav songs off the 'dark is the night' album!
that is so good. thanks.
Damn straight one of the best bands on the planet!
And "Hipster" aint the worst tag to be labelled with....
NOW THATS LIVING!!!
After a little looking into the origin of the song it looks like Odetta is the singer famous for it, but really it's a traditional American folk song, probably of British origin.
I want to be unique in the exact same way as everyone else!
so atmopheric, wish i was there
@nodmonkey i really like your recording :)
beauty!!
Long live to Grizzly Bear and the Adenosine triphosphate
so good
I hear ya. I missed the first song of Grizzly's set at Blossom because of the traffic getting in.
@jrs89 it's not pointless to dress however you want to, or enjoy the bands you want to, or hang around the people you want to. and i'd actually say this video shows that everyone really doesn't end up doing the same thing.
their voices are amazing, they completely cut through the bad sound quality and ring out through my crappy laptop speakers.
awesome!
ahhhhhhhh i love this
this is a traditional folk song? I didn't know that...it's really good
DUDE how fucking awesome would it be to be there. Those people are fucking luuucky
you do realize, I hope, that Jonny Greenwood has since said that they are his favorite band in the world right?
isn't the guy in the irish shirt chris bear? he's their drummer.
oh, and p.s. this video is amazing.
i love it!and the girl from the minute 2:30 is f amazing
very nice backwards motion at the end
the dude in the irish sweater seems to lean back at a pretty extreme angle when he stands upright.
Lovely....
LMAO mario at 2:27...priceless.
excellent.
dear lord if i was there i would have shat myself the moment he started singing
i missed them at lollapalooza to save a good spot for Radiohead and i missed them again before Radiohead in cleveland because the car holding my tickets was late. it eats at me a little bit everyday when i think about it.
i hope Department of Eagles tours for In Ear Park.
Where the fuck is the professionally recorded version that guy is shooting? :'(
18/08/2019: i simply won't take anything else (oh but you will, you love this all too much), there'll be no flailing of the heartstrings ('no falling ribbon in the end') just my quiet and staying for this one thing i want now (well then, good luck)
15/12/2021: I want to swim in it, darling in a deep blue sea
tab was a delicious soda, i wish they would bring it back
