And now we all want an Acoustic album :)
Second this
Yah man!
WORD!
yes please!
Yes. Please and Thank You.
There is no guidance in your kingdom
Your wicked walk in Babylon
There is no wisdom to your freedom
The richest man in Babylon
Your beggars sleep outside your doorway
Your prophets leave to wonder on
You fall asleep at night with worry
The saddest man in Babylon
The wicked stench of exploitation
Hangs in the air and fingers on
Beneath the praise and admiration
The weakest man in Babylon
There is no hope left in your kingdom
Your servants have burned all their songs
Nobody here remembers freedom
The richest man in Babylon
🙏 ✌ 🍃💛💛🍃 🙌🙌
God bless you man
and yet, here we are
Hangs in the air and fingers on? Shouldn't it be lingers on?
I watched this video when it was uploaded, and still today after 4+ years, I still keep coming back to this masterpiece! Thank you Thievery Corporation for making my day best with your music.
Somewhere a rasta guy called Robert Marley is listening you guys with a proud smile on his face.
43 dislikes from people who were upset they weren't in the room to experience this live.
There is no other team like this!
The percussionists of Thievery Corporation are the wonderful glue.
Лайк кто слушает этот шедевр в 2023 году.
Whoever is humming that high-pitched hum, was genius lol... love you guys since 2000
As awesome as always!!! Over a decade being a fan of yours!!!
was on their concert in 2005 in belgrade and it was like WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW, unfortunately few days ago couldnt go again....
@@spale999 I went and it was WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...OOOOW!
Me too!
This song is SO APT today. Especially sung in DC! Keep it up, Rob Garza, Puma Ptah, Hash Vyas, Jeff Franca, Robbie Myers, and Frank Orrall! You really know how to groove.
They sealed their own fate.
С этой песней хочется плыть.Не важно куда главное плыть и плыть только вперёд.
The collective talent and musical genius shared between these 6 guys, these CATS, is pure magic. Also, the singer’s voice makes me feel like it’s a God from ancient Mesopotamia singing through him.
Thievery Corporation is awesome... my favorite band. Pure music for the soul.
I just saw T. C. In December at the Orange Peel in Asheville North Carolina, this was one of the best concerts I've ever seen, the band is so tight, I can't wait until they are back, do not miss an opportunity to see them live you will not be disappointed !
Thanks Michael, have a great weekend.
Wasn't that awesome?! I saw both of those nights in AVL, and Hash walked right by me the 2nd night - mind blown! My first TC shows but I got into them in sometime around 2006 with the "AOL Music DJ Sessions: Mixed by Thievery Corporation" CD I somehow acquired, online I think. Please come back TC!
I was there!!! 🙌🙏🥰
Just saw them in P'cola with maybe 300 people. They played as if 30,000 was in the audience. One of the best bands I've witnessed live! Thank you for an amazing show.
thievery corp is fire!!! Just got onto them this year! So much music!
WOW just amazing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Like an Anthem of these times...
Absolutely...things are changing my friend
This band is one of our main influences!
Love u guys 🙏💙

Found out about Thievery corporation 5 years ago on Fifa 12 i think.... I was instantly hooked by the vibe, TC reminds me of my volunteering trip to Istanbul.. Was living there alone, as 18 yr old dude from samll town in Croatia.. Listening to the sounds at night looking over Bosphorus..
Cant think of another group that filled my life with a rich musical experience than these guys.. Really, thanks thievery corp.
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, YES! Thank you so much for sharing this AMAZING piece. Thievery Corporation has always been there, helping giving music and color to my life. You guys shaped me in many ways. Thank you!
Very kind of you, thank you for listening.
You guys kill it even when you just settin around. Thank you all!
Gentlemen, thank you so much!!! You just made my night. Incredible!!! I went to Montserrat 20 years ago and my sister and I hiked to the top of the monastery (and tram) we both made a wish, and they both changed our lives forever. I need to go back now, for a refresh : ) and maybe some ghost-hunting. Love love love!!!
Oh, this is a gift from heaven ... Thank you very much, Thievery Corporation, for giving a ray of hope to my broken heart. Much Love! x

Too many times when bands play acousticly the sound is flat and lifeless. This sounds incredible. Lush, soulful I could listen 1000 times and never get tired. Stellar job fellas.
I feel this in my whole spine
