- Phoebe Bridgers - Scott Street an exclusive live performance for Vevo DSCVR, the channel for the best in new music.
It’s a real skill to wax forlorn without submitting to the depths of despair. In the last two years Phoebe Bridgers has shown us just how articulate she can be regarding the troubled side of life while still touting the small joys that mark most day to day experiences. Again and again, the singer-songwriter revels in the marvels of the emotional deets that shape who we are. After critics erupted over the eloquence of the 23-year-old’s ‘Stranger In The Alps’ (get the ‘Lebowski’ reference?), the Silver Lake-based Bridgers went through a wave of Joni-Jackson comparisons. Elements of the masters dot her songs, but some of her more recent heroes are Sun Kil Moon’s Mark Kozelek and Elliot Smith - tender wordsmiths whose best work is both vulnerable and poised. If you know Bridgers’ “Smoke Signals” and “Motion Sickness,” you might’ve heard her “Scott Street” before, too. But not like this. Our DSCVR performance turns the tune, inspired by a sunset stroll through her Echo Park hood, into an epic lament. Swirling fiddle lines and cloudy guitar flourishes prove the singer knows exactly what she needs to bolster her designs as she closes with farewell line of “don’t be a stranger.” Masterful.

This song feels like when you almost had a good day.
Accurate
jjsupremeorta15 from experience I can confirm you’re correct
😂
There's an interview about this song on song exploder, where phoebe talks about when they first mixed it and were listening to it with her producer... the outro finishes he spins around in his chair with a single tear down his face and says "it's like you're looking back on your life and it's all been a failure" lol they took that as the best compliment haha I'll never forget that 😭
yeah
I love that she and Marshall can perform this song together.
i love watching marshall harmonize lyrics that are about him
IC what U re doing here
wait what do you mean
What do YOU mean? The song is about him...
@Kayla Buss this song in particular is actually about Marshall, her drummer. Pretty sure he co-wrote too.
and smoke signals too
Honestly this is her most underrated and underplayed song
lol Stranger in the Alps is a fantastic, critically acclaimed album. Your opinion is wrong. Also there are loads and loads of fantastic bands around today "made of real musicians", youre just too blind to see them because youre stuck in the past.
There were shit acts pre 2000 too just like there are fantastic acts post 2000.
hahhahha that's going on reddit i love copypastas
Your stance that technical complexity equals quality is wrong
Well you supposed wrong, I dont like Ed. I respect your devotion to your craft but frankly you're wrong on this matter. Phoebe's act isn't about keeping a tight 4/4 at 118 bpm or implementing complex chord progressions, this may sound cliché but it's about the emotion she transmits through her lyrics and performance. You may be able to learn to play her songs in a few minutes but I doubt you could learn the feeling she puts into them. And it's hardly a matter of subjective/objective when most musical critics will back me up in saying that Stranger In The Alps is a good album. Sounds are just timed vibrations but good music is more than that.
Once again Phoebe comes off as cool and elegant; so vulnerable but every lyric is so private. I have high hopes for her next album. Thank you for gifting us with your haunting beautiful lingering voice Phoebe. Magnificent instrumental work as well guys!
Nick Slye update: Punisher is the best album of 2020
punisher was unfortunately extremely disappointing and a huge departure from everything shes done up til this point but at least stranger in the alps is still timeless
@@god47398 You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about..
@@god47398 punisher is so much better
When she says " do you feel ashamed when you hear my name " ? Then turns and looks at the drummer.... watching his face tells the whole story. It made me jealous and also not feel alone in being that hurt.
Everything about this is stunning , the camera angles, the outfits , the beautiful musicians, the background, the song , the lyrics , the mixing, the emotion. It's all perfect .
Jesus _Christ_ , Phoebe's voice is just the kind of voice that is entirely haunting, with or without the reverb - it reverberates in your damn *soul* .
It makes me want to start sobbing every time. So irrefutably beautiful. Damn.
I read that first part the same way she sings it in "Funeral"... 😂
"Anyway, don't be a stranger" really manages to capture letting a little bit of that that manipulative and abusive person into your life once everything is said and done. There are numerous interpretations, but damn. Gets me every time.
I’ve always understood that lyric as that time where you still wanna be friends with your ex even though that’s just an excuse to still have them in your life and keep up with them. And even though you know it’s unhealthy and you should cut it off totally, you can’t. Fascinating to hear what that means for everyone else.
for me dont be a stranger is when you want to still friend with someone but you both are getting old and are busy and the things are not the same, but you dont want that this person that you like so much became a stranger one day
for me, "don't be a stranger" is sort of a like wanting to be friends with someone, but being too afraid to. Maybe the other person is very emotionally direct and honest, and I am just not capable of it at the time. Or maybe, it's the other way around, and they're not comfortable with parts of me, but I like them and don't want them gone. Sometimes, it's also about wanting connections in life, but just not even having the energy due to being too depressed, tired and burnt out with life. It really feels like it's like a cry for help type of phrase. A desperate extending of your hand to someone, yearning for their affection or friendship, and secretly hoping they'll somehow magically understand what you don't have the guts to tell them directly. Sigh :(
I’ve always seen this song as returning to a place you used to love weather it’s an old town or school or whatever. Being excited to see and reconnect with all your old friends again but slowly realizing time has moved on and those are no longer the same people you became friends with back when. “Don’t be a stranger” of course is the last thing that is said in the song just like it’s the last thing said in any awkward conversation with someone you haven’t seen in a while that you have no intention on seeing in the future either.
She crushed it with this song. This is easily one of my top 5 favorite songs of all time.
I LOVE ALL THESE INTERPRETATIONS THEY ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL.... THINKING ABOUT THE PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE OR THE SHOULDA COULDA WOULDAS.... IT'S SO HEARTBREAKING WHEN U HAVE TO BRING SOMETHING TO AN END WHATEVER IT MAY BE WHEN YOU LOVE IT SO MUCH ....BUT IT SHOWS THAT YOU HAVE TREMENDOUS STRENGTH GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!❤❤❤
forever swooning over her. SHES JUST SO BEAUTIFUL. I saw her in SF just a week or two ago and I died. She was incredible live.
Anyway....don't be a stranger.
A Brilliant line for a beautiful song.
She's been my favourite artist for almost a year now, with absolutely no sign of it stopping. I love Phoebe Bridgers. Fact.
Do you still love her?
This here. This is where I met my current favorite artist. Forever grateful for her existence.
I love that little smile at "said it's too much shit to carry"
when she turns around to Marshall and the drums come in, but it's also the buildup to my favorite, poignant yet heartbreaking line in the whole song 😭
An incredibly beautiful version of this song of hers...I especially love how she gives off brief smiles during certain lines...Struggle or despair in life is not always something that keeps you down...You learn from it & laugh about it & smile about it later on.
Kick me in the face, Phoebe.
Alex hahahaha
She probably will lol
Kkkkkkkkkk
r u the same person who practically begged her to beat you up in the comment section of her funeral video? If so, I want to be you.
I second this lol
she will forever be one of the greatest
I discovered Phoebe with this video, 3 years ago. Thanks youtube, thanks Phoebe ❤
After about 6 and a half years, I love her even more.
“Stranger in the alps” is really a perfect album.
How is this so freaking beautiful 😭😭😭😭😭 ohmygodddd ...my ears have been blessed
Every single live studio rendition of this song has its own charm .. absolutely love the violin and guitars in this one !!
I cry to this song often.
Ugh. She never fails to make me feel something. Pure brilliance.
Man, this gave me shivers all over and brought a tear to me. The nostalgic and "lost love" sound this gives off is just incredible, almost tangible. Have only got into Phoebe in the past week or so.
The backing vocals towards the end remind me of the vocals in the chorus of Goodbye Horses by Q Lazzarus
Violin + Phoebe = gorgeous melody with a dreamy quality.
I love when UA-cam ads finally come through and show me a gem like this song.
This song is about the relationship lost between her and the drummer. Adds a whole new element to this video.
no it's not - Marshall came up with the song and Phoebe helped him finish it. He wrote it about a past shitty relationship with someone who is not Phoebe, they both talk about it on Song Exploder.
the outro gets me every time
PHOEBE BRIDGERS your voice is harmony and your words speak to the heart☺🎶💕 loving you already ☺🎶💕thank you VEVO DSCVR
Boy oh boy can this girl sing. Exceptional
Listening to this while thinking about my coworker who left a few days ago to work abroad. He is probably the best coworker I’ll ever have. And i think there’s a few people who will agree with me when i say it’s a rare thing to have a work bestie on your first job. I told him am gonna visit him one day and we promised we will keep in touch. And I really hope we don’t become strangers. Ali Bin Afif. I will miss you so much and i wish you all the best in your future endeavors.❤️
mesmerising, entrancing, phenomenal. my favourite live performance of hers.
Remains the greatest upload to UA-cam ever
Phoebe Bridgers is a musical goddess
she looks so fking good here
seriously she’s so hot😭
Saw her live in Seattle a couple weeks ago, one of the best performances I’ve ever witnessed❤️ I love her so much and I can’t wait until she releases another album!
Just moved to Toronto from San Francisco in the middle of a pandemic and a lockdown. Damn! Re-listening to this just takes me back to driving through those redwoods to my ex-girlfriend. 'Anyway, Don't be a stranger!' That's exactly how I feel quarantining for two whole bloody months by myself.
oh phoebes, always making me cry!
The movie between two ferns brought me here.I heard this song and loved it..;-)
Me too, awesome!
Sarah Serenity Wells same!

Wow!! Just discovered this by accident. Am I ever glad I did!!

So crazy to see her rise to fame, she went to my school and I'm friends with her brother...
I’ve listened to this several times but never realized that she changed the lyrics for “they’re all getting married” to “they’re all having babies” and it caught me so off guard. Anyone else? Lol

Beautiful, classy, poetic, inspiring… ❤❤❤

DREAMY !
Who is / was HOTTER ?
Hope Sandoval (Mazzy Star) or Phoebe Bridgers ?
Very nice, i like how she changed "they're all getting married" to "having babies", wonder why though
Probably because in the time since the song was written, they're already married and are now having kids.
She's friends with conor oberst, and he's known for changing his lyrics after the release of albums and touring certain songs for awhile. Could partially be due to his influence as well.
probably cause at the time it was written they were all getting married and now when she performs it they’re all having babies? seems kinda obvious
Probably because she, at the time when singing this version was thinking just that...How all those people are having babies...I get the feeling that it annoys her, just like everybody getting married does.
The song is about Marshall Vore (the drummer, they used to date). Vore was in one of Ryan Adams' bands (he went through many...) and when that group ended, it was due to, at least ostensibly, many of the members getting married and having (or getting ready to have) babies. I'd bet she went back and forth on the line when writing it as either works...just my guess
Mazzy Star vibes 👏🏻
this is my favorite video ever
Phoebe and the band are perfect on this. Just great
just cried my eyes out hehe😄😄😄
I NEVER FEEL ASHAMED WHEN I HEAR YOUR NAME
😍 I Love This Song 😍
Holy shit this was so beautiful...
that was fucking wonderful!
