Lyrics like this could help me through the tough times: "Oh, we said our dreams will carry us. And if they don't fly, we will run Now we push right past to find out Oh, how to win what they all lost"
This is that music that makes you think of that one really dope summer you had with all your friends and your first time smoking weed and the first time you had a real relationship and all those feels
PURE GOLD 😍 Santi has been the soundtrack of my life for 10+ years already. She's 6 years older than me and who I want to be once I decide to grow up. 😎
This makes me feel like I stumbled on a private recording of this song and everyone else was so engrossed in music making that they didn’t see me. This is going to be one of my top tracks this year.
This whole album lived in my head rent free for about a year when it came out. Glad I just stumbled on this a decade later. Obsessed with Santi all over again 😂
This song is 🔥! Lyrics mean a lot to me- “ a life worth fighting for....” That means something different to each person...”oh they said our dreams would carry us...”
Don't look ahead, there's stormy weather Another roadblock in our way But if we go, we go together Our hands are tied here if we stay Oh, we said our dreams will carry us And if they don't fly we will run Now we push right past to find out Oh, how to win what they all lost Oh ah, oh ah We know now we want more Oh ah, oh ah A life worth fighting for Oh ah, oh ah We know that we want more Oh ah, oh ah A life worth fighting for So let them say we can't do better Lay out the rules that we can't break They wanna sit and watch it wither Their legacy's too hard to take Oh, we said our dreams will carry us And if they don't fly we will run Now we push right past to find out Oh, how to win what they all lost Oh ah, oh ah We know now we want more Oh ah, oh ah A life worth fighting for Oh ah, oh ah We know that we want more Oh ah, oh ah A life worth fighting for In their heads, hedging their bets In their eyes it shows When the beacon breaks, what then? You ask and they don't know Oh tell me that I turn my back well the odds all stand beneath me And they all said I was misled But now the odds all stand beneath me Oh ah, oh ah They're frozen to the core Oh ah, oh ah A life worth fighting for Oh, we said our dreams will carry us And if they don't fly we will run Now we push right past to find out Oh, how to win what they all lost Oh ah, oh ah We know now we want more Oh ah, oh ah A life worth fighting for Oh ah, oh ah We know that we want more Oh ah, oh ah A life worth fighting for We hear them run, but don't hear what you say Now here we come, can't throw nothing in our way We hear them run, but don't hear what you say Now here we come, can't throw nothing in our way

Was watching “good girls” with my wife... heard this song and was like Damn!!!! Pretty cool fucking song. Then saw it is over 7yrs old!!! I must’ve been under a rock
Actually this song is from her album Santogold from 2008, so, much older. It is a gem and the video of her first single "Les artistes" was quite popular back in the day. The video is also stunning.
This is my spirit song. Ingrained in my mind after hearing a pre-opening soundcheck at a festival in London's Docklands. The sound crew played this song at full capacity crowd volume with no-one around. I was about half a kilometre away and remember the bass driving through me, it was a breathtaking music force using a captivating song.
I've had time to settle down since my last comment. I've spent much time contemplating your work verses someone like "puffbaby or Jaysee" and you are so superior to them in so many ways. Still they get the airplay and media. God bless you Santi. I love you dearly.
Don't use God's name in vain in one comment and then say "God bless you" in another. I'm not a crazy fanatic or anything, just kills me when I see people use God's name like that. I guess it's how I was raised, but I cringe when I see it. Please don't do it? Thanks.
Every now and then, in between a thousand artists, there is a true gem. I think she is one of those.
+marc kimmel ... could not agree more :) !!!
marc kimmel I'm in love with her since the day I spot that tune she's one of a million man
The Guitarist Keyboard Guy was Equally a Badass
A tleast this song is.
no doubt! But also, there IS so much good music - which could be labelled as a GEM
I'm here in 2024.😮
No ? Is it à joke ?
i am with you hombre
A fond
Ya man. It's still fire!
I STOP HERE A COUPLE TIMES A DAY IN 2024
have listened to this song over 100 times and am still not tired of it. Santigold is gold!
I know! So super uber cool
you never get sick a song cause it amazing
Agreed

Who’s still listening in 2099? Song never gets old
I had to get my cane to stand up and boogie.
everytime I hear this song I wish i could hear it for the first time again
First time for me! I like it!
Not a cookie cutter artist
She is a brilliant voice in the universe
Deserves everything that fame has to offer
A total package
Word
Somehow I went 10 years without ever hearing this song. I am in love. I must have played it 30 times in the last 3 days. This is a true gem.
Same here brother
Same, skipped a decade
Same here, thrashed it since hearing it
I just heard this for the first time a few days ago. It has been happening a lot to me like the war on drugs. Another incredible band. Cheers!
I listen one a week othwriwsi I shutdown
The guitar sounds totally badass on this version.
Damn, I just can't get enough of this lady.
Santi . . . YOU'RE SO DAMN GOLD !!!!!
The guitarist is my hero. Dude's name should be "Captain Multi-tasker!"
his woman is a lucky lady lol
10years later, 2023 and this song still is THE embodiment of freedom
She’s amazing. Highly overlooked imo.
I have to say even in 2022, this is really great music. I love this jam and her style and of course, it all comes together with the band, loving it.
This really is an incredible piece of music; it's one of those things where it's a privilege to have it in your life.
The style she portrays is compare to none. hands down coolest human being on the planet.
I wanna be in her club.
I call it pizazz.
You should see her weld.
She reminds me of Amy Winehouse without the drugs
There is seriously no difference between live and the recorded version, absolutely incredible!!!
Except the terrible guitar sound
Very calm yet confident energy she radiates.
Holy crap, I totally didn't think this song would sound good live. Boy was I wrong!!
Is it really live though?
@@subikshrestha2308 yes, it is.
@Angela E. most of it is a backing track.
Still cool though
This is what happens when people take a band seriously and actually show up to practice.
@@subikshrestha2308 not to mention everything and the kitchen sink of affects on her voice.
This woman is criminally underrated and i know why... but i'll say no more. Awesome songwriter/singer.
+shonenlad She is not underrated at all.
+Dirt MIke ~ not gay. Her mans Trouble Andrew.
+bahcsas she is underrated
+bahcsas she is underrated
you implying cause she is black?
This live version is the business
capital B
Santigold performing on my birthday later this year is the best present ever
this live is incredible
This music is very very good. Santigold make me feel free sometimes, as her music get through my veins
The concentration to stick to your own instrument when every layer is so addictive. Amazing.
i often play that game with myself. just listen to one instrument and consciously block out the others.
Rob Bligidy I did the same with this! 😂
do it to for DJ Shadow's "Building Steam with a Grain of Salt". its amazing
Also do the same to Natalie Cole's "This will be an Ever Lasting Love". Amazing.
Especially the chill vocals over the chaotic drum and bass.
My man with the Guitar rocking it!
She’s just so fucking cool. That’s it. There’s no other way to describe despite the outdated term. She’s the definition of being “so fucking cool”.
only a superstar wears shades like those
and comic book villians
+Miguel Ángel Cabrera Hi there, do you know the brand?
+Adam Price (EyeNon) And people getting eye exams.
+Alfonso Montalvo
Looks like RetroSuperFutures (RSF) to me.
Yep, the Shades indicate #SupaStarStatus ✌️
This Tune has some Serious Fuckin Swag. Fuckin get on that One
Got goosebumps from the beginning of the song. I haven't experienced this feeling for a long time
Still gets me.
Still listening in 2023. Never come across such a unique song in life. This will never get old. ❤
It is amazing how much that fondling guitar riff adds to the song. Their sound is infectious.
Lyrics like this could help me through the tough times: "Oh, we said our dreams will carry us.
And if they don't fly, we will run
Now we push right past to find out
Oh, how to win what they all lost"
This is that music that makes you think of that one really dope summer you had with all your friends and your first time smoking weed and the first time you had a real relationship and all those feels
Cspeazy yesssss, this song gives me chills
F'ing COVID ruining my entire f'ing festival summer. I genuinely cried reading your comment
um this was my actual summer to a t when i listened to this 👁👄👁
I've never had any of those things ever, but yeah that is exactly what it feels like
@@shamicentertainment1262 😂 I appreciate the honesty
PURE GOLD 😍 Santi has been the soundtrack of my life for 10+ years already. She's 6 years older than me and who I want to be once I decide to grow up. 😎
Amazing.. 8yrs ago santigold helped pull me through quite a tuff patch in my life, cant believe its been that long..much luv!

And now it's been 11. I hope everything is still going well...
That's the power of music.!
Ditto!
❤️
excelent music and singer amazing😊😂😊
This makes me feel like I stumbled on a private recording of this song and everyone else was so engrossed in music making that they didn’t see me.
This is going to be one of my top tracks this year.
Seven years later this is still amazing. I just love you girl.
Aquí escuchandola por milésima vez , con una cerveza en la mano....
This song always comes to the rescue...going through a hard time..I love this group!!
Same
Yes, it does~🌻
This whole album lived in my head rent free for about a year when it came out. Glad I just stumbled on this a decade later. Obsessed with Santi all over again 😂
She seems so chill and this song everything about it is AWESOME.
Its been 8 yrs and every single time i hear this song its like im hearing it for the first time. I will never tire of this song and santigold.
Song is almost 7 years old. Still sounds good. Timeless.
Now 11 years old & still GOLD!
This song is 🔥! Lyrics mean a lot to me- “ a life worth fighting for....” That means something different to each person...”oh they said our dreams would carry us...”
This song still gives me chills
The best version ever
She's so underrated, is katy perry released this song it'd be top of the charts for like 100 weeks or something.
guitar be sooo simple but soooo good
Most simple things. That's the beauty.
OMG!!! Such a masterpiece playing live. Santigold is one of the Best musicians of the century.
This is amazing. I listened to it like 20 times and still do. She is great.
just discovered her, where has she been hiding. Oh my word. blessed. 100% music
This has been the alarm on my cell phone for literal years. It woke me up again this morning. Never gets old.
Don't look ahead, there's stormy weather
Another roadblock in our way
But if we go, we go together
Our hands are tied here if we stay
Oh, we said our dreams will carry us
And if they don't fly we will run
Now we push right past to find out
Oh, how to win what they all lost
Oh ah, oh ah
We know now we want more
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for
Oh ah, oh ah
We know that we want more
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for
So let them say we can't do better
Lay out the rules that we can't break
They wanna sit and watch it wither
Their legacy's too hard to take
Oh, we said our dreams will carry us
And if they don't fly we will run
Now we push right past to find out
Oh, how to win what they all lost
Oh ah, oh ah
We know now we want more
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for
Oh ah, oh ah
We know that we want more
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for
In their heads, hedging their bets
In their eyes it shows
When the beacon breaks, what then?
You ask and they don't know
Oh tell me that
I turn my back well the odds all stand beneath me
And they all said I was misled
But now the odds all stand beneath me
Oh ah, oh ah
They're frozen to the core
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for
Oh, we said our dreams will carry us
And if they don't fly we will run
Now we push right past to find out
Oh, how to win what they all lost
Oh ah, oh ah
We know now we want more
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for
Oh ah, oh ah
We know that we want more
Oh ah, oh ah
A life worth fighting for
We hear them run, but don't hear what you say
Now here we come, can't throw nothing in our way
We hear them run, but don't hear what you say
Now here we come, can't throw nothing in our way
❤
JUST SPENT 3HRS LOOKING FOR THIS SONG...TRUE BLISS RN
❣️
All hail the music makers! For they surely make our life's better!!
I bought the vinyl many many years ago . Used to dance to it in my favorite nightclub with my best friend DJ . Rediscovered it a few days ago while going through my records as I wanted to give it away . I always listen before wantto give . Thank God l listened. Now on a daily basis at least twice.
Never give a record before listening.
The song is incredible. I still get goosebumps every time I hear it.
I think I am going on over 200 times listening too this song.
I was so hypnotized looking at her singing. Song is incredible as she and the band is!
This could be recoreded yesterday it's so good.
Santigold brings me LIFE! The only thing getting me through lately here in the states.
Damn the early 2010s were so awesome
this video is for anyone that thought Santigold was just Santi White. This amazing music is a group effort :)
Years later and I still find this song amazing and gets even more powerful each year I listen to it
Was watching “good girls” with my wife... heard this song and was like Damn!!!! Pretty cool fucking song. Then saw it is over 7yrs old!!! I must’ve been under a rock
Actually this song is from her album Santogold from 2008, so, much older. It is a gem and the video of her first single "Les artistes" was quite popular back in the day. The video is also stunning.
Same, only just discovered them, it clearly doesn't get old
I want those sunglasses for when I do triathlons; that would be so cool!
Great vibes Santigold. Love from Buenos Aires
Amazing~ the world needs more artistry and creative expression like this ♥ ♥
A True Artist!♥️
2020 Anyone?
2021 Santigold is so amazing
2024
Her voice is a gentle blanket of despair which makes me feel a longing to a distant, joyful past that doesn't exist.
This is a kick ass recording....studio quality with a bit of edge.
She is so cool it hurts
Incredible song, incredible performance. Thank you so much.
This song made me graduate
Thank you Santigold
She is a true gem. 💎💖
I honestly didn’t know how dope she was. This song gives me the feels.
Nba 2k16...one of the best tracks
Bravo!!!..Bravo!!!...I like to rewatch this from time to time....
después de todos estos años de escucharla me sigue poniendo la piel chinita
Such a layered song even with just a few people.
I adore that song. And im already listen to it for about the 100th time :P
This song is awesome and resonates even at 51 years old
This is Sick! Undeniably her best!
genius song writer doesn't matter what kind of music ur into gotta love this one 👍
Even better live. Amazing
I think I've heard this song about 10 dozen times in the past week! I can't get this song out of my head. POWERFUL LYRICS!!
the singer looks like a character id make in Rock Band
I can’t believe that synth part is played note for note, that guitar/keys guy is incredible haha
They are super underrated. They are the best!
2020 and 4 ever in love with this Song..
From italyyy
healing song
I rarely use the word cool, but this is cool as hell. Very happy I found out about santigold on Pandora. Keep going girl, you got IT.
I'd even go as far to say it's swell
Found as recommended from listening to Stromae. Him and her are the definition of cool to me.
This is my spirit song. Ingrained in my mind after hearing a pre-opening soundcheck at a festival in London's Docklands. The sound crew played this song at full capacity crowd volume with no-one around.

GODDAMIT Santi, you exude beauty and talent. This song is amazing and so are you.
I've had time to settle down since my last comment. I've spent much time contemplating your work verses someone like "puffbaby or Jaysee" and you are so superior to them in so many ways. Still they get the airplay and media. God bless you Santi. I love you dearly.
Don't use God's name in vain in one comment and then say "God bless you" in another. I'm not a crazy fanatic or anything, just kills me when I see people use God's name like that. I guess it's how I was raised, but I cringe when I see it. Please don't do it? Thanks.
This song will never stop slapping.
Santigold and Trouble Andrew...That would be a show. Make it happen in LA!
Song is true to music.. band delivers and her voice is a gift to us.
love this live performance fuck yeah \m/
the song gives me goosebumps! my lord Santi is pure Gold !
You know yoy are talented when your live sounds like the studio album. Few artists are like that Bob Marley , UB 40 Thirld World
