/ qtv Montreal buzz band Land of Talk were CBC Q's Friday live guests performing three songs off their new album 'Some Are Lakes.' This is 'It's Okay.'
Love this band and song. One of those timeless tunes I keep going back to. The ending is what does it for me...subtle but powerful build up. Very cool.
I feel like singing a beautiful song like this takes some concentration. This is obviously not an easy song to sing, and the way Lizzie sings it is absolutely beautiful.
Has land of talk broken up? Saw them several times in land of Cleves between '05 to '07 and even had an opportunity to share a smoke and hang with liz on one occasion. So sad that for one show, only like 10 people showed up. So sad for an amazing band. Love this song, especially live...
I just hosted them in Seattle last week! They were the absolute NICEST people. I just found this video and it feels like I'm watching an old friend play now
So many things I could post now about how amazing a song Liz has written here, and how I love the way she sings it. Is it shallow of me then that what I really keep thinking when I watch this is that I want that guitar?
When Lizzie breaks into what I guess you'd call the bridge and there's the abrupt fall back into the chorus, I shiver ..."I'll give you something that no one's gonna give you. My sleepin' skin and my heart deep down in you. I'll never tell you, you're my little scar. Goodbyes are hard and they're hard and they're hard...." I can't wait to get my ass kicked by the music they're going to come out with in the future.
@Zososg I believe it's just an orange 'sun burst' paint job. You can get the 'sun burst' in many colors (blue, red, etc.). There are lots of great paint jobs for Les Pauls--not sure where you're looking.
Does anyone know what tuning they use? the tab on ultimate guitar is wrong, the G on the F# string is totally off. if someone can help me out that would be much appreciated. Thanks :)
@Mineav i own a 1960 les paul, i know what a sunburst is. but a sunburst is NOT a PAINT job. im talking about the design on the top of her guitar. the wavy lines. did you even look at her guitar? i have never seen a PAINT job on a les paul that looked good like this one. obviously an artist painted her les paul and it looks like theres a signature on it by the neck joint. i am dying to know who painted it
Don't know if they're gone but i hope not. I saw Jimmy Eat World when they were still known as "J.E.W.", and there were only 3 people. Just saying I hope they have the patience for the long haul. That's really the only way nowadays.
@Zososg By an artist in Toronto or Montreal, most likely. But you can always ask her yourself: /user/ixheartxdinosaurs 99% sure that's her, and no BS. Source: watch?v=HoXMgswPITY (first comment)
someone tell me about her les paul. i never see les pauls with paint jobs that actually look good. theyre always so lame looking (the paint jobs, not les pauls aha) but i like that one so much. is there a signature by the neck joint?
The ending of a relationship especially when it comes to love is like a death. We feel like we're dieing on the inside as we're literally morning the loss of that person.

this is one of the most beautiful songs in all of history
I loved this song as a teenager in 2008, and now I'm 33. The Canadian indie rock scene is incredible. Hello from Ukraine 💙💛
Absolutely beautiful. I found this band on a Spotify playlist called "The most beautiful songs in the world". The list was right.
Love this band and song. One of those timeless tunes I keep going back to. The ending is what does it for me...subtle but powerful build up. Very cool.
I miss real music like this
me too 😢
There's still plenty of good bands. Snail Mail is a newer one you might like
:'( the fact that this song is 8 years old make me feel like time has passed,
+Xiuhcoatl Gosh, yeah... Just re-discovered it on Spotify... Bittersweet.
now 12
it´s ok :(
I don’t even cry
14 now
This songs fucks me up
I gave a friend a Land of Talk record "Some Are Lakes". We love it, Love it. I hope, wherever you are Lizzie, you're being creative.
"Goodbyes are hard and they're hard and they're hard...."
I love how you can tell just how much she really means the words as she sings them.
I can't stop watching this.
Oh my gosh so obsessed with this song at the moment. And the album! Gold.
That is the best looking guitar I have ever seen.
One of the best songs ever!
Old skool rock-trio lineup..timeless
I feel like singing a beautiful song like this takes some concentration. This is obviously not an easy song to sing, and the way Lizzie sings it is absolutely beautiful.
WHAT A GRACEFUL DRUMMER
best version on UA-cam.

shoot if i were an adult back then I would have gone to see them cross countrystyle..
I just hosted them in Seattle last week! They were the absolute NICEST people. I just found this video and it feels like I'm watching an old friend play now
@@Jesse-lv2yo Very cool! Bummer...looked like I just missed them. Will have to look out for their Fall tour.
Dang, I love her.
I love this song so much :-)
Beautiful song!
amazing song! Amazing voice!
Like si también creiste que alvinsch era el baterista
Jajajaj pense lo mismo
i love the guitar!
this is one of my favorite songs ever.
So Sweet it is

So good!

I hope you got your butt kicked. :)
"but maybe when I die...."
makes my hair stand up.
buena banda.................................
Lovely.
oh love BSS, they r such a great band. i cant believe i found out about them because of The Time Traveler's Wife.
I love it
Saluti dall'Italia
My heart 💔
magnificent
And the dream when you kissed my arm
as I look away, don't hear what I say...
goddamnit
this song is beautifull!
@Zososg I believe it's just an orange 'sun burst' paint job. You can get the 'sun burst' in many colors (blue, red, etc.). There are lots of great paint jobs for Les Pauls--not sure where you're looking.
Very emotive.
auch sehr schön
Yes she was in BSS and played with them quite a few times. Don't know what her status is with them now though.
woww.........it's O)))range..!
Rare time you see her play a Les Paul and not her SG.
wow.
Does anyone know what tuning they use? the tab on ultimate guitar is wrong, the G on the F# string is totally off. if someone can help me out that would be much appreciated.
Thanks :)
@ilovemytsax
' should watch the music video of this tune.
@Mineav according to a video that user uploaded, that users name is emily raw
@Mineav i own a 1960 les paul, i know what a sunburst is. but a sunburst is NOT a PAINT job. im talking about the design on the top of her guitar. the wavy lines. did you even look at her guitar? i have never seen a PAINT job on a les paul that looked good like this one.
obviously an artist painted her les paul and it looks like theres a signature on it by the neck joint.
i am dying to know who painted it
alvinsh es baterista alv :v
JAJAJAJA con razón se tatuó la letra de la canción
Como se llama la señorita
Elizabeth Powell
Don't know if they're gone but i hope not. I saw Jimmy Eat World when they were still known as "J.E.W.", and there were only 3 people. Just saying I hope they have the patience for the long haul. That's really the only way nowadays.
GUITARISTS!!! Is this in an altered tuning? Anyone know any accurate tabs?
This is wonderful but Liz you should ditch that guitar for a Fender jazzmaster and plug it into an amp soaked in reverb. ;)
@Zososg By an artist in Toronto or Montreal, most likely. But you can always ask her yourself: /user/ixheartxdinosaurs
99% sure that's her, and no BS. Source: watch?v=HoXMgswPITY (first comment)
@Zososg I see what you mean, now. It's just a custom paint job done by some random custom paint dude.
@starbuck1111
are thei a new band?
someone tell me about her les paul. i never see les pauls with paint jobs that actually look good. theyre always so lame looking (the paint jobs, not les pauls aha) but i like that one so much. is there a signature by the neck joint?
Does anyone know what this song is actually about? one second I think it's a love song, the next it's about death.
The ending of a relationship especially when it comes to love is like a death. We feel like we're dieing on the inside as we're literally morning the loss of that person.
Aww I definitely miss the keys
This song is still amazing though.
Damn!!! Elizabeth looks hot and adorable. :*
the drummer looks like ron livingston
This is one of the saddest songs ive ever heard
@GodlessWhore nope. I'm an atheist. and not suicidal, which is why it makes my hair stand up.
@31rS3RP3N7 not really probably a couple years old
@TVTsteven you shush.
aside from being great, her earrings are smashing
@mahajohn E-b-d#-f#-b-d#
:(
What the hell is a 'buzz band' anyway?
