Holy shrimp in a can, talk about an album opener. Seriously, this is my favorite song on the album, and one of my favorite album-openers I've ever heard. It surprises me with how good it is every time I listen to it.
I think it's quite striking that Kevin suddenly switches from talking about a girl he can't get with, to talking about his father who won't live to see another day. It really impacts the overall meaning of the song and the emotional impact. It's almost like mood whiplash, but not in a bad way. Plus it makes the lyrics more dynamic and interesting.
Lyrics: I wanted her I wanted her But she doesn't like the life that I lead She doesn't like the life that I lead Doesn't like sand stuck on her feet Or sitting around smoking weed I must seem more like a friend in need And I boast that it is meant to be But in all honesty I don't have a hope in hell I'm happy just to watch her move And in all honesty I don't have a hope in hell I'm happy just to watch her move And she doesn't like the friends that I make Doesn't make friends for friendship's sake she just gets bored sitting by the lake Her soul won't surface and her heart won't ache And I boast that it is meant to be But in all honesty I don't have a hope in hell I'm happy just to watch her move And I thought they could cure his disease But in all honesty He didn't have a hope in hell Now we'll never see him move
Sounds similar to the melodic progressions, phrasing, and vocal timber of later Beatle's songs, colored by a slightly trippier vibe, very much enjoying the ride ! : )
Man when I was going through some shit in the early 2010s, I discovered Tame Impala and a lot of their music got me through it. Definitely my "hipster" moment as many of their best songs are still quite unknown by the general public.
Hey Alex, I feel like you really made my day today too, keep on rockin in the free world. Yours truly, Rydethetyde TM PS Another tame impala video is on the way! This one is gona be off da hook so stay tuned ^^
Why is every tame impala song so good, I listened to 3 songs on repeat so far, then I see they/he (I don't know if it's a group or one person oops) made a lot more
Wow, great video! If it hadn't been for the comments I would have just taken this for an official clip... Thank you for making this. I'll go check out your other Tame Impala clip that you mention in the comments!
I remember the first time I heard this song... I said "holy fuck" turned up the volume and told everyone to please shut the fuck up... I don't normally curse..
Amazing video for an amazing song. Did you MAKE this? Perfectly matched the experience of the song and captured the essence of it for me. Thank you so much for sharing, really....
This song is so good that it feels like it shouldn't even exist.
********************ANDY, THAT'S ONE OF THE STROGEST DESCRIPTIONS I HAVE EVER READ!******************************
this song actually never gets old. the hypnotic combination of drums, bass and guitar just gets more and more beautiful with every listen
i concur.
this song is the reason for being calm and sad at the same time

The more I listen to Tame Impala the more I discover about myself
you might be depressed then
chunky chunk or in eternal bliss
chunky chunk probably :/
the more I listen to me, the more I discover about tame impala

@@ismaelmelendez2710 this was recorded in australia in 2009 before Kevin met Melody so no
@@ismaelmelendez2710 bro what are you saying you def don’t know anything about kevin
@@VB-tn4tb Bro is just saying shit
Dog what crack are you smoking this is just about a past lover he is incompatible with...
Innerspeaker is so unique...is the birth of a legend!
Watching them perform this song live was definitely one of the highlights of my life.
For me it was eventually! tho they didn't pla Lucidity. Must go again.
Gerardo Amozurrutia eventually is probably my favorite
agreed! literally one of the greatest experiences in my life
JEALOUS!!!
This was on the new episode of Legion tonight, and I am so happy
Lyrics:
I wanted her
I wanted her
But she doesn't like the life that I lead
She doesn't like the life that I lead
Doesn't like sand stuck on her feet
Or sitting around smoking weed
I must seem more like a friend in need
And I boast that it is meant to be
But in all honesty
I don't have a hope in hell
I'm happy just to watch her move
And in all honesty
I don't have a hope in hell
I'm happy just to watch her move
And she doesn't like the friends that I make
Doesn't make friends for friendship's sake
she just gets bored sitting by the lake
Her soul won't surface and her heart won't ache
And I boast that it is meant to be
But in all honesty
I don't have a hope in hell
I'm happy just to watch her move
And I thought they could cure his disease
But in all honesty
He didn't have a hope in hell
Now we'll never see him move
these lyrics make me cry
Antarez Flamez
i wonder who the last verse refers to.
@@lanabanana68 I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure its talking about his dad who died of cancer when this album was being made.
@@vaporware4099 You're most likely right. Especially with his most recent release of Posthumous Forgiveness.
Man these two Tame Impala videos seem like they are legit, awesome job on creating a video that perfectly suits the two songs
probably kevin's best song. and i'm a big kevin fan.
Reminds me of a girl I once knew! GREAT broken-heart song!

this song touching my soul
it gives me the chills everytime
You make it so obvious you're a brat
This songs makes me feel like a rainbow unicorn floating on the clouds
this songs makes me feel like a bubblegum floating and bouncing on the clouds
1:56 - 2:35 .. that chorus always gets me every time. Pure bliss.
Not only love their trippy songs also thank u that I could run into your lovely artworks
That band is really blowing up right now.
I watched this when i got high as fuck last night and smiled the whole time cause of how lit this is man, i love this
Looks like how my mind wanders when I think of her...
This is what i waited for 29 years of my life. Thank you, Kevin.
Trippy song, trippy video.
Thank you RydetheTyde, you made my day
Hey Alex,
I feel like you really made my day today too, keep on rockin in the free world.

+lorelei b Watched this on acid and it was great
Watch NTTHHSFHBAWCC while tripping.
I love their song titles and their songs
This song is one of my favorites, it sounds amazing! :') ❤️
Kevin's voice is so psychedelic in this one
To me Tame Impala and The Weeknd are clear examples of hope, music wise, for this decade.
This songs rythim is so satisfying just put it on at 4 am and let it take you to another world
Heard this song for the first time today, really mezmerizing. This video catches the vibe very well, awesome
To my Unrequited Love
She doesn't like the life that I lead
Doesn't like sand stuck on her feet
Or sitting around smoking weed
I must seem more like a friend in need...

LOL. Thx for that
Stop talking about me! :)
easily one of my favourite songs from tame impala. awesome video!
Melhor banda pra sempre
This is fucking amazing

...A soul on the surface,
And a hard boiled egg...
Why is every tame impala song so good, I listened to 3 songs on repeat so far, then I see they/he (I don't know if it's a group or one person oops) made a lot more
i find it deeply sad that anyone would get bored sitting by the lake.

Fabrizio Obando Tis, i guess there is some beauty in sadness.
Fabrizio Obando But listen to the lyrics: 'I dont have a hope in hell' (Sounds pretty sad to me lol)

+E Lo Yes there is good and bad in life I guess :)

Fidlar c:
Jinger Rogers what genre I've been listening to bands similar to tame impala so I'm curious
+madylin green Listen to Pond and Temples they have a similar sound to Tame Impala, Fidlar is more like garage rock theyre okay in my opinion.
+Irvin Nivri yeah I know who pond and temples are but I've never heard of the other one I have to check them out
maravilloso! genial!
Beatiful
I remember the first time I heard this song... I said "holy fuck" turned up the volume and told everyone to please shut the fuck up... I don't normally curse..

I heard this song in Legion S2E4 and I knew right away it was a Tame Impala song
uh que cool ♥
Groovy
This is pure LSD
this takes me back to 1999 for some reason
Can't wait ! Please do one for "It's Only a Northern Song" by the Beatles?
This song is heroin for my eardrums
mellowwwwwwww....
This sounds so much like George Harrison when he was in the Beatles
Hmmmmmmmm nah he's like John Lennon on a Leslie Harmon organ
Meu cérebro derreteu
Story of my life
