This is one of my favorite tracks , triggers an specific feeling of future nostalgia, a feeling that you know it will trigger in the future and sets you in the situation that the song talks about , being high and in love and out of nowhere losing everything.
exactly! I get this kind of feeling everytime i listen to this and i couldnt really explain but as you said it triggers feeling of nostalgia but you dont know from where it us coming if you have never heard it before.
I have honestly forgotten how many times I have played through this whole album. Jamie XX is a real piece of work! Check out his live boiler room sessions, top quality, as you would expect.
agedskate3000 ahaha I was wondering the same, they kind of screw the song. its hard to see this kind of dark/sad musicians/songs with this happy dumb chapping shit.
Well, I cried. I'm a grown man but this performance reduces me to tears. It's not the song itself, or the lyrics, but the way they perform it. I'm personally not great at anything, but people performing this well is almost as good as me doing it because I'm a people too. I rock!
Already had! In 2005 and it's called The xx. I think it would've been absolutely amazing if I was replying to a this 10 year old comment suggesting they form a band and they did after that lol.
They played a couple of songs on their US mini tour last year. You can find snippets on you tube. One I know they played at the Guggenheim. I saw that clip
They all have come so far from the artist/teenagers they were back in 2009 and bloomed into wonderful artist. Not to mention years of work Jamie has put into his album. Album of the year for sure
Romy has one of the best voices I've heard in awhile, but all in all this song's a masterpiece. Hope to see her with Jamie at the armory in mpls in January!!
this song ! and their album is such a wind of fresh air !!! her sound,the instrumentals and the compositions UGH !!! hopefully other artists can collaborate with them !!!
I go to loud places To search for someone To be quiet with Who will take me home You go to loud places To find someone who Will take you higher than I took you Didn't I take you to higher places you can't reach without me? (I have never reached such heights) Reach without me (I feel music in your eyes I have never reached such heights) I go to those places Where we used to go They seem so quiet now I'm here, all alone You go to new places With I don't know who And I don't know how To follow you Higher I take you higher and I’ll take you Didn’t I take you higher? I take you higher I take you higher and I take you Didn’t I take you higher? I take you Didn't I take you to higher places you can't reach without me? (I have never reached such heights) Reach without me (I feel music in your eyes I have never reached such heights) I feel music in your eyes I have never reached such heights I feel music in your eyes I have never reached such heights You're in ecstasy without me When you come down I won't be around
i just saw jamie at bestival at toronto and he was just the coolest. did not say a single word, just blew everyone's mind. smiled a couple times. rare jamie smile at 3:15
Listen to the lyrics. This is a terribly sad song I can overwhelmingly relate to, and it's all disguised in a happy sick beat. But it's a sorrow song, a sadness song, and I'm all tears as it's reminding me of things I'd since forgotten.
I know it’s probably not about them, but I always pictured this song being abt the friends in the band splitting off and doing their own thing after knowing each other their whole lives and growing to global prominence together.
I heard this song when Apple Music first launched. That streaming service has introduced me to a lot of great songs. I been a xx fan since 2012 but I had no idea Jamie xx was doing his own thing & doing it well..

this album is a total masterpiece, one of the best self debut album ever made
It is so good. Honestly I don't think I've heard a better album in the past ten years or so. A lot of things as good but nothing as original.
I have honestly forgotten how many times I have played through this whole album. Jamie XX is a real piece of work!
Check out his live boiler room sessions, top quality, as you would expect.
@@jaquab003 I totally agree with you. I really enjoy listening to the album in the car while driving.
@@drivebytruckers7 Jamie xx is the full artist. Like the stuff he did with gil scott Heron. Dude just loves pushing himself to innovate
Agreed 💘
Thank god the clapping came to an end...
agedskate3000 Thank god im not the only one who thinks that
agedskate3000 ahaha I was wondering the same, they kind of screw the song. its hard to see this kind of dark/sad musicians/songs with this happy dumb chapping shit.
thank god that thank god that thank
agedskate3000 French people are well known to be awfull and asynchronous clappers ... I know it well ... I'm french ... sorry :-D
Nicolas Gonzalez Yes but they are better at filming!
Jamie is a fucking genius
AWESOME~!
And I love how Oliver's playing the bass like he's in his own world XD
This is a perfect song. It's so loud and so calm at the same time

You rock! Yt search “pale blue dancer “
They absolutely nailed this. Sounds just like the recorded version.
Jamie XX and Romy Are great together! They should form a Band or something...
Jazmin Sandoval that just totally went over your head huh..
lakis plazopoulos You stole that from the original comment from the main video of this song. Try some originality :-)
They just have to get rid of the base player I don't think he has chemistry with Romy at all
._. they got one including romy's husband. The XX
Already had! In 2005 and it's called The xx.
I think it would've been absolutely amazing if I was replying to a this 10 year old comment suggesting they form a band and they did after that lol.
I had to double check that wasn't a studio version. This is one of the best live performances I've ever seen.
No you didn't, because this is clearly live. Stop lying
jamie's a genius, man. to be able to envision this sort of composition...amazing. and it's like that on the whole album too.
holy fuck this performance is flawless... sounds like the record 1:1
Drop dead gorgeous. As the planet crashes and burns, these kids find hope and love and know how to transform it to music.
In Colours is one of the BEST albums in 2015. I wish i was there.
This version sounds so good it makes me feel really happy to be alive. Life is good.
Loving this album. Good to see the band together. Hope it won't take them too long to release something new together as well.
They've already been posting... They've been writing and in the studio for a month at least! :D
This has totally gone under the radar for me. Guess that what final's do to you. Nothing released/leaked/anything yet?
They played a couple of songs on their US mini tour last year. You can find snippets on you tube. One I know they played at the Guggenheim. I saw that clip
👍👍
Rissa Solano The Guggenheim track is on Jamie xx's new album. Its called stranger in a room featuring Oliver Sim. x
Romy looks so pretty💛
That drummer is really good, didnt miss a beat :)
She is the drummer of Warpaint. SUUUUUUUCH a great band!
Aime Herrera Thanks! I'll check them out :)
Music Edits most drummers don't
They all have come so far from the artist/teenagers they were back in 2009 and bloomed into wonderful artist. Not to mention years of work Jamie has put into his album. Album of the year for sure
miss this
digging Romy's longer hair
absolutely incredible, one of the most talented groups out there
groups...?
Marissa R that's basically the xx
Marissa R its one guy lol
such an emotional song. romy conveys that last grasp desperation in a dying relationship perfectly with her voice
this song is sooooo addictive.
Jamie is pro man...his album really shows his passion for sound....so glad I found this, thanks for sharing :)
Amazing. That little sample reminds me of Everything But The Girl - Tracey in my room. Love it.
Live performance is very good quality!!
Her voice is so beautiful!
This never dies! Hope he releases more art very soon!
Awesome! I am so happy that I will see The XX live in a few months, maybe they will also play this song =)
Absolutely awesome.
Romy has one of the best voices I've heard in awhile, but all in all this song's a masterpiece. Hope to see her with Jamie at the armory in mpls in January!!
THIS. IS. BEYOND. WONDERFUL.
this song ! and their album is such a wind of fresh air !!! her sound,the instrumentals and the compositions UGH !!! hopefully other artists can collaborate with them !!!
the beauty of this song is the leveling and it’s restraint. hard to duplicate that same feeling live
Belle chanson et bravo aux 6 choristes du Chœur Gospel de Paris qui étaient la
Wow, how many years.....I love this!!
Best song for nostalgic people like me ❤
How nice - lucky to find this nice piece of music 5 years after recording :)
More like the XX feat. choir
My thoughts exactly
Evan Isaac Well no.. This isn't the XX. Jamie wrote and produced this song. Romy just sings the vocals.
Matthew Chalk That may be, but next to Romy is Oliver with the bass so this is indeed a performance by The XX.
I go to loud places
To search for someone
To be quiet with
Who will take me home
You go to loud places
To find someone who
Will take you higher than
I took you
Didn't I take you to higher places you can't reach without me?
(I have never reached such heights) Reach without me
(I feel music in your eyes
I have never reached such heights)
I go to those places
Where we used to go
They seem so quiet now
I'm here, all alone
You go to new places
With I don't know who
And I don't know how
To follow you
Higher
I take you higher and I’ll take you
Didn’t I take you higher?
I take you higher
I take you higher and I take you
Didn’t I take you higher?
I take you
Didn't I take you to higher places you can't reach without me?
(I have never reached such heights) Reach without me
(I feel music in your eyes
I have never reached such heights)
I feel music in your eyes
I have never reached such heights
I feel music in your eyes
I have never reached such heights
You're in ecstasy without me
When you come down
I won't be around
Ah yes, I can also listen to the video
Didn't expect Stella to be there. Awesome :D
THIS IS SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL
i just saw jamie at bestival at toronto and he was just the coolest. did not say a single word, just blew everyone's mind. smiled a couple times. rare jamie smile at 3:15
Que guapa está la Romy
RogerTeeVlog Esta preciosa y el Oliveer tambien

I am always late to the musical party. 2015?!!?! Just heard this on a local public station in June 2018 for the first time. Fell in love immediately 😍

pleasantly surprised about Romy's new look.
Pfffff, what an amazing live performance! Real cool drummer btw! :)
Romy is a great singer, in live is perfect as in the studio version
I know it’s probably not about them, but I always pictured this song being abt the friends in the band splitting off and doing their own thing after knowing each other their whole lives and growing to global prominence together.
Oh my god! This is really amazing
what a perfect song
amazing performance!!!
So it’s basically the xx. Not complaining, huge fan.
TUDO PRA MIM
I love Stella! So talented.

Stunning

I heard this song when Apple Music first launched. That streaming service has introduced me to a lot of great songs. I been a xx fan since 2012 but I had no idea Jamie xx was doing his own thing & doing it well..
He's doing pretty well honestly, Seesaw is another song I love :) You should listen to it if you haven't yet
Whoa, me too. I had the free trial and listened to the whole album at midnight after it was on a playlist.
This band is flippin AMAZING
Impeccable!
