This song has a very haunting, sinister vibe to it. It’s absolutely beautiful. From the time this song came out to today, I find myself listening over and over. Great job, gentlemen!
I discovered the black angels watching a snowboarding video a few years back. "Young Men Dead" was the song. Since then, they have become one of my favorite bands. This song compared to that is very different, but equally as powerful and probably top 3 for me... i think... I hant heard anything i dont love yet from The Black Angels. Next time i fly to Austin from Maine, it will revolve around a show.
It is a special gift when you run across a piece of art or writing that encapsulates what you are feeling. Especially if it is a particular sadness, or traumatic event or series of events. It can be comforting to know that someone else has felt the same way. And had the courage to express it eloquently. Being involved in something you wanted so badly... knowing it would eventually betray you. Always waiting for the hammer to drop. And when it eventually does, the inability to summon up the fight that had always been in you previously. Being demoralized by the way desire often overpowers intuition. And reality... The right song can almost allow you to romanticize your grief...
Not just that, but when they do it so well, it can help you to express that feeling yourself in a way you may not have been comfortable before. Even further, it can make you feel more comfortable expressing other complex emotions moving forward, knowing that not only have others felt similar ways, but they can work through and express them in beautiful ways. I've been a fan of this band since like 08, but this is far and away my favorite song they have ever released
Such a good video. I love the concept and the look and just everything. Alex Maas and the Black Angels are just so talented and make me glad I still live in the Austin area. Love levitation fest and psych fest. Thank you all for sharing your music with the world, it's truly magical.
I love this band. The first time I saw this band was on Austin City Limits. I was watching and listening and I was like holy shit this band is awesome. I have bought all their albums and I listen to them every chance I get. The new album is better than the other albums. Awesome Band!
I love you guys. I saw you at Bonnaroo 2007 and had never heard of ya'll before. You immediately became one of my favorite bands. You put on a great show that night and I've been listening ever since. Thanks for putting out rad music.
I really love them. Each album is so unique and they capture a really special sound. I think they are going in a good direction and I’m just dying to see them live! Hopefully they come to Brisbane soon.
This is my same ranking of The Black Angels' records--except I think Directions To See A Ghost is their best album so it would be in the number 1 spot (Passover at number 2).
I will die for things that mean so much to me If you take them, you better watch out So when she came to me, I was so in love that I'm half believing, half suspicious World you make me nervous I will lie awake and thinking of you It's like my spell is almost useless I will lie awake and thinking of you All these little things yeah, these pretty things that Make us lose our minds, steal your thoughts in time Yes you make me nervous, I will lie awake and thinking of you Why are you so dangerous? I will lie awake and thinking of you It's like my spell on you is useless I will lie awake and thinking of you In the fight for things I am so in love with I'm half believing, half suspicious And in the moment I feel like you're lying I'm half believing ohhhh Why are you so dangerous? I will lie awake and thinking of you It's like the spell on you is useless I will lie awake yeah thinking of you Feeling for you is hopeless I will lie awake yeah thinking of you Feeling for you is useless These feelings for you are hopeless I will lie awake yeah thinking of you I will lie awake yeah thinking of you I will lie awake yeah I'm thinking of you I will lie awake yeah I'm thinking of you
In live version is a bit different line. But does it have same meaning? Studio : Steal your thoughts in time (I have never heard this phrase before ) Live: Try us all the time (It makes more sense to me)
Listening to this song (and whole album really) feels like marching out to your death. Knowingly taking each step forward into the unknown. She, America the beautiful, feeling for you is hopeless...
I will die for things that mean so much to me If you take them, you better watch out So when she came to me, I was so in love that I'm half believing, half suspicious Well you make me nervous I will lie awake and thinking of you It's like my spell is almost useless I will lie awake and thinking of you All these little things yeah, these pretty things that Make us lose our minds, steal your thoughts in time Yes you make me nervous, I will lie awake and thinking of you
Should have been on the radio instead of "feel it still" from the same year. Also great video! #2017waslikethebestformusic both have that radio sound but half believing is head and shoulders above thematically, sonically and with motifs.
No pretense here and little irony... just a profound psychedelic aural journey. Alex Maas' voice is at once effortless in agony, melting into intonations of dark monotone. Of course he's channeling Morrison but then evolved from decades of underground expression. I really love this band because of the shadowed places I can travel to within the confines of headphones.

Interesting a woman beating the shit out of the dude. Bianca Butti on camera. Wonder what Bianca thought of her girl who mocked the idea that a man could be the victim of abuse- by a woman?
I hit pause after clicking on this video to read the comments section in hopes of finding other band/song rec's similar to this one and then I came across your comment. Now I can not watch the video because it will ruin the song for me. I thank you for your comment, it has saved me.
This freaking band saved my life when I was in the beginnings of recovery recovery... No kidding. . Music is a soul saver
This is was my wedding track, slow dance 16/9/23
This band is a goldmine
They don’t really have anything I don’t like to listen too
Goddamn right
Opening strange doors that we'll never close again
Just doscoverd them ..my new favorites
👍
This song and video are an unbelievably accurate portrayal of the dark, painful odyssey of having a partner with a severe mood disorder.
Well put
100%
More like a narcissistic person with a mood disorder.
This song gives me chills every time I listen to it.
I bet so many of us felt this song immediately after been through this hell. Much love.
This song is on another level...timeless 🙏🖤
I agree
This song has a very haunting, sinister vibe to it. It’s absolutely beautiful. From the time this song came out to today, I find myself listening over and over. Great job, gentlemen!
And lady.
One of my absolute favorite songs IVe ever heard. Goosebumps nearly every listen.
They deliver consistently awesome music album after album.

1:Passover
2:Directions To See A Ghost
3:Death Song
4:Phosphene Dream
5:Indigo Meadow
But thats just my humble opinion tell me all yours!
1 Passover
1 Phosphene Dream
1 Directions to See a Ghost
1 Indigo Meadow
1 Death Song
This is my same ranking of The Black Angels' records--except I think Directions To See A Ghost is their best album so it would be in the number 1 spot (Passover at number 2).
Indigo Meadow is my favorite album of theirs. I guess people don't care for psych pop as much.
Phosphene Dream goes alright but yeah all pretty good albums.
That's why I love The Black Angels
I will die for things that mean so much to me
If you take them, you better watch out
So when she came to me, I was so in love that
I'm half believing, half suspicious
World you make me nervous
I will lie awake and thinking of you
It's like my spell is almost useless
I will lie awake and thinking of you
All these little things yeah,
these pretty things that
Make us lose our minds,
steal your thoughts in time
Yes you make me nervous,
I will lie awake and thinking of you
Why are you so dangerous?
I will lie awake and thinking of you
It's like my spell on you is useless
I will lie awake and thinking of you
In the fight for things I am so in love with
I'm half believing, half suspicious
And in the moment I feel like you're lying
I'm half believing ohhhh
Why are you so dangerous?
I will lie awake and thinking of you
It's like the spell on you is useless
I will lie awake yeah thinking of you
Feeling for you is hopeless
I will lie awake yeah thinking of you
Feeling for you is useless
These feelings for you are hopeless
I will lie awake yeah thinking of you
I will lie awake yeah thinking of you
I will lie awake yeah I'm thinking of you
I will lie awake yeah I'm thinking of you
you again
SMH
Thx for the lyrics
He actually says "Fiending" for you is hopeless. It took me a while to catch it.
*world you make me nervous.
In live version is a bit different line. But does it have same meaning?
Studio : Steal your thoughts in time
(I have never heard this phrase before )
Live: Try us all the time
(It makes more sense to me)
Beautiful music. Decent sub bass presence too!
I'm in love. Masterpiece
❤️🔥
Listening to this song (and whole album really) feels like marching out to your death. Knowingly taking each step forward into the unknown. She, America the beautiful, feeling for you is hopeless...
Oh she's long gone.
In '07 the movie Death Sentence brought me to The Black Angels. I've been here since.👍
I will die for things that mean so much to me
If you take them, you better watch out
So when she came to me, I was so in love that
I'm half believing, half suspicious
Well you make me nervous
I will lie awake and thinking of you
It's like my spell is almost useless
I will lie awake and thinking of you
All these little things yeah,
these pretty things that
Make us lose our minds,
steal your thoughts in time
Yes you make me nervous,
I will lie awake and thinking of you
I played this song to death when it came out. I can happily say it is still in my top 10
I❤ this song
Haven’t heard anything like this in a while
Saw them in London...so unreal
Amazing. Top Tier
Perfection.
The best band forever
LOVE
So good Love this band ✨
*Incredible!!!!*
Por que este grupo no es mas conocido?

Awesome!
I hope Alex is recovering after the lashing.
Hippie killers hell yes!

Love this band,puts me back in 68,but this song,I totally get,I've had relationships like this,took few to get me wise
Omg...thank you
These lyrics describe my bpd ex that broke up with me over the smallest things on my birthday. Bullet dodged and all but it hurt like hell.
The best
