There's another version of this song and it sounds amazing and it's different because it's very polished and "finished". This sounds so raw and imperfect and I love it.
+Snehal Mane This is the leaked demo version. The more "polished" version is official and released in 2011 as a limited edition vinyl. Just to let you know :)
Whyyyyy isn’t this on Spotify... I had this version on my phone for years, I thought this was the original. The original is nice, but this is something else. Enchanting.
@@christhewiz9103, fuck, is true, haha, this version has a second piano playing deep notes and the voice is a little bit lower, that's makes it sound more serious and sad.
This actually makes me love how things was before I use this song as a time machine and it helps me remember who I really am, specifically this old version of Ruby.
It feels good to know that someone else knows how hard it is to go on with life some days... even if the song isn't even remotely for the audience, it still feels good... just knowing that someone knows how hard it is wake up and go on makes me want to get out of bed in the mornings, and hold my head high against all odds... thank you Mark :)
I must say, from the horrible music that is being produced today, this band finds a way to make some of the most beautiful, original, awesome, creative, and deep songs out there today. the entire torches album is downright amazing, and so is this amazing band! amazing job Foster the People, you have won my heart and respect. I cannot wait for the next album, I bet it will be just as amazing as torches is!
this song brings me to tears nearly every time. i relate to it so much. most beautiful song i have ever heard. THIS takes true talent to write. well done mark :)
happiness aint free...everybody fights just like me..but I've given up the ability to retreat....those words...from that lyrics...gave me goose bumps...it relates me...
I met Mark in 2007 and this song was on his demo. Stripped. This song convinced me of his immense talent. Glad he's recognized today. Great guy and great Artist.
LOL! You should have seen my face while listening to this! I was crying like a wimp... my cheeks are soaked with my tears. I had to listen to hello by mark foster after I heard this to cheer me up a bit. Love it!
I love listening to this and mentally replacing the world Ruby, with the name of the girl I like haha (even though the rest of the lyrics dont really apply to her)
I first heard this song in 2007, Mark and his manager pitched my client (a major record producer), and we thought this would be his debut hit. A year and half later he tells me he's going to play his first gig with his new band Foster And The People, Well played Mark....
It's unique, to say the least. Every song gives off a different vibe and emotion, but everything is tied together by Mark Foster's creative and minimalistic songwriting. It's truly a work of art in itself, and it's not uncommon to like every song on the album equally.
This song is so underrated live. They played this as their first encore right before their outro with Pumped Up Kicks and the crowd wouldn't shut up and let me enjoy the beautiful song.
I don't understand? Why disliking this beautifull song? This song is almost the only song that has really an explanation, and not a song about Money, Drugs etc. from these days... People really don't know what good music is... :/ This band is very intelligent
¨...happiness ain't free, everybody fights just like me. But I've given up the ability to retreat.¨ God! that guy is a genius and so deep! He can write.
i love this song with all my heart!!! i love mark foster and the whole band!!! this song is so inspiring!!thxs sooooo much mark for all he songs u wrote. they really did change my life:) i want to cry to this song
I could safely say that... this song partly says something about myself... but what the hell. Mark makes good music, special music, the ones that really touch one's heart. Thank you and I applaud you, Mark Foster.
I remember loving how heartbreaking this song was in high school. I’m 25 now. Still love it
same...
Well I wasn't in high school LMAO!
I just know that this song is pretty sad tbh :(
Well same here
There's another version of this song and it sounds amazing and it's different because it's very polished and "finished". This sounds so raw and imperfect and I love it.
Personally I prefer this version
+Snehal Mane This is the leaked demo version. The more "polished" version is official and released in 2011 as a limited edition vinyl. Just to let you know :)
This one features Tim Carter on drums, now playing lead guitar in Kasabian. This one's way better)
You could say it’s like a *ruby* in the rough 😁
i love this version more
this makes me actually love my name.
Ruby Tovar you have a beautiful name
Agreed
Its one of the most beautiful names
Why would you love “Tovar”?
What’s your name?
Dang the imperfect sound in this version actually makes it perfect.
Whyyyyy isn’t this on Spotify... I had this version on my phone for years, I thought this was the original. The original is nice, but this is something else. Enchanting.
It is now.
@@Marcellgdd I still can’t find it. Could you post a link, perhaps?
@@christhewiz9103 open.spotify.com/track/1nPjPnOhuKXhhjHA5LSaqL?si=ft4pZlRrSjq4UitJVGTAfg
@@Marcellgdd Ah, but that’s not this version. It sounds similar, but this version is much better.
@@christhewiz9103, fuck, is true, haha, this version has a second piano playing deep notes and the voice is a little bit lower, that's makes it sound more serious and sad.
This version is better i wish they would release it
x Flick yep
This touches me so deeply. I don't even know why it hurts so much. And every time he sings "Ruby, Ruby, Ruby" it gives me goosebumps.
i feel you bud :(
This is song is overwhelmingly sad. Just hearing this songs makes my heart heavy.
Or your heart is a rock
Im joking
this song has a soul
That transition section into the bridge is so beautiful
3:13
How does he manage to make so many songs with perfect and different perspectives?
My brother (23), my sister(12) and me(16) we all love Foster The People! we're hipnotized with their music
This actually makes me love how things was before I use this song as a time machine and it helps me remember who I really am, specifically this old version of Ruby.
she's got everything and nothing to loooooooose
FOSTER THE PEOPLE
my grandma's name was Ruby...she was my best friend
r.i.p I love you
I wish hotels would play this in their elevators, great song
West Jerzey Thats what she said.

+kenneth lam Squidwards cousin has a more fitting elevator music.
most underrated foster the people song of all time
No doubt.
Happiness aint free, everybody fights just like me.. but I've given up the ability to retreat..
Umm... So what? These are the lyrics
+Polad Hasanov its her favourite bit, Jake. Get it right!
***** Alriiight. but i dont understand it, nobody cares what part is your favorite.
Polad Hasanov take a chill pill boi
When i need to chill i go in the feezer
A beautifully wonder of a song. It's a shame this was not on Torches or Supermodel.
Its to good to be in an album.
Roman Gallo that makes no sense.
No, it makes no sense
Roman Gallo a song so good, that it is not on any album. just think that through.
no
I think is one of the most beautiful foster the people`s songs
Same :)
It feels good to know that someone else knows how hard it is to go on with life some days... even if the song isn't even remotely for the audience, it still feels good... just knowing that someone knows how hard it is wake up and go on makes me want to get out of bed in the mornings, and hold my head high against all odds... thank you Mark :)
This song is B E A U T I F U L
One of the few songs I can come back to whenever I want. Also only this version lmao
I just found this song and it's officially my favorite. The lyrics are beautiful and close to my heart, I can't get enough of these guys.

this song will always be my favorite
mark is blessed with talent
Pasarán años y jamás pudre olvidar esta canción
Usually takes a few times to really enjoy a song, but this is my first time listening to this and i already love it .
The fact my name is Ruby makes me reaaaallllyyyy happy :3
+RubyPurple Sky You got to lift your head up Ruby
You have a beautiful name :)
Whoa, I Completly LOVE This Song. I Keep Playing It Over & Over & OVER Again.
Well Done Foster The People
I just fell in love with this song.
Amazing band . Wow niece musics n' songs . Excellent n' good job .
I don't get why they removed this version from the album. Much better imo
happiness aint free...everybody fights just like me..but I've given up the ability to retreat....those words...from that lyrics...gave me goose bumps...it relates me...
"Ruuby..Ruuby...Ruuby...I know it's hard but you've gotta get outta bed..outta bed...outta bed..." XD This is every morning for me..
I was there at the Phoenix concert as well. No one requested as far as I could tell. But it was amazing and definitely the highlight of my summer.
I met Mark in 2007 and this song was on his demo. Stripped. This song convinced me of his immense talent. Glad he's recognized today. Great guy and great Artist.
Me 2 girl I feel you
Nothing is more beautiful than a song written to a girl with tons of emotion. A perfect ballad.
Damn this is a good song
Now I´m obsessed with this song. Which is perfect¡¡
I'm surprised that this won't be on the new album. I was sort of expecting to see it listed on the track list for "Supermodel".
yeah I don't get it either, must be a B track, but its such a good song
IIIhittmanIII And Mark has even said it's one of his favorite songs that he has ever written. Maybe he's saving it for something special.
I don't think this will get in to any album. It has become too old for that.
Maybe a album of unreleased songs will come out after Supermodel
Ricardo Rodriguez You can find 5-6 unreleased songs by Mark Foster dated way back to 2007 in musicville.fm .
This is the most amazing song I ever could have found in this part of my life. Thank you Foster the People for turning my emotions into music.
My favorite song by them, found by accident and not shared with anyone.
I think it would be huge for them if they released it.
LOL! You should have seen my face while listening to this! I was crying like a wimp... my cheeks are soaked with my tears. I had to listen to hello by mark foster after I heard this to cheer me up a bit. Love it!
I am Ruby..I dont even have sons...but this scares me.
+Ruby Cuevas You got to lift your head up Ruby
Thank you.
+Ruby Cuevas dont its foy u XD
+Ruby Cuevas hI! RUBY! I subscribed to your channel a few months ago! Are you still doinmg well? How is college? Gary
your comment made me realize that this whole time Mark Foster has been saying Ruby, not "ooh babe...oooh babe"
They played this at their Toronto concert in September and I've been looking everywhere for it! Thanks for the upload. It was amazing live !
This songs about a stay at home single mother.. connects to me very well tbh xD
Why can' the whole world love Foster the People. They are so fantastic.
i feel you man. it took me 5 months to find someone who likes foster the people or even knows them
i'm actually crying
Dear me of the past: this masterpiece is finally added to the deluxe album of Torches 🤍🤍🤍
I saw them live yesterday in berlin and I just cried when Mark began to sing this song.
It was so perfect. The Song. The Band.
foster kids. xx
this song is good, make me feel better
Just look at the way he sings!!!!!!!!!He brings out the true meaning of beautiful music :]] I LOVE FOSTER THE PEOPLE AND MARK FOSTER!!!!!!
I love listening to this and mentally replacing the world Ruby, with the name of the girl I like haha (even though the rest of the lyrics dont really apply to her)
What's her name? I know it's none of my business, so you don't have to answer if you don't want to.
Trash .Boat ruby..
OMG SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS
Nido TV
Read his comment again.
Maybe I actually really fucking love you Ruby Sparks!

I have a relationship with this song ♡♡♡♡
Does anyone else come to listen to this version years later
eu estou viciada nessa música!!!!!! help
I got this album in highschool (~late 2011) Never heard it before until today. Good track
This version was waaaaay better than the one released on Torches X
I never knew this song existed until hearing it live and falling in love. so glad I found it!
never heard of this before glad i found it cuz its not on the album

Finally...i found this..
And now a new version on VEVO channel :D
JaviJave3000 oh really?
thx!
원래 뉴버전도 유출된진 꽤됨..포더피이놈들은 곡하나 출시시키는데 ㅈㄴ게오래걸리는듯
ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
+Nozzy HD YES! ADELANTE!
i still can't believe i saw them in concert just 2 days ago! they were so amazing, words cannot express how great it was!
I thought Mark Foster always said "ooh babe...ooh babe. You gotta start lifting your headdd up headdd up"
Such a sad song. Totally completes my mood these days. Thank you, Foster the People, such a nice band.
Voy a embriagarme con esta canción soñando con regresar el tiempo y hundirme en esos ojos color océano.
This is just absouluty wonderful.
I love this song
My gf's name is Ruby, such a complicated girl.
lol
Ferroush shark lol all of girlfriends are
look up Ruby by Kaiser Chiefs. Probably describes her better.
Ferroush shark
haha spot on mate!
Glad i found this song, it's really beautiful. I heard him singing this at the concert on Thursday but knew it wasn't on the album.
:)
Thank you for this song Foster the People. It is helping me so much. God bless ya'll :)
Why do I hurt so much?
This song is so underrated live. They played this as their first encore right before their outro with Pumped Up Kicks and the crowd wouldn't shut up and let me enjoy the beautiful song.
He sounds a little like Adam Levine on this recording.
But I'm a huge fan of Foster and not so much with Maroon 5...I much prefer Marks voice
He sounds nothing like Adam Levine😂 Mark is way better!
I don't understand?
Why disliking this beautifull song?
This song is almost the only song that has really an explanation, and not a song about Money, Drugs etc. from these days...
People really don't know what good music is... :/
This band is very intelligent
indie adam levine
LOL Mark Foster slays Adam Levine with the littlest amount of effort FOH
im sayin hes the indie adam levine
¨...happiness ain't free, everybody fights just like me. But I've given up the ability to retreat.¨ God! that guy is a genius and so deep! He can write.
The harmonies are beautiful!!!

I could safely say that... this song partly says something about myself... but what the hell. Mark makes good music, special music, the ones that really touch one's heart. Thank you and I applaud you, Mark Foster.

ILOVETHISSONG. I could listen to the intro alone for hours and hours and hours
