      me. Enjoyed their previous album. Once I heard this one, I knew it could be a hit on radio... I Was right. I love discovering bands, most people only listen to radio and are forced to like music, and miss out on so much good music.

    Portugal The Country is trending too.
    #1 They decriminalized possession of all drugs and it's working
    #2 They had a big forest fire this summer
    #3 Apparently, they all speak Portuguese over there

      Johtonian what do you mean we don't all speak our OWN national language? 🤷‍♀️ most of us speak multiple languages, but portugueses comes first.. and is actually the fifth most spoken language in the Word due to colonization, it's spoken in Brazil , África, Asia..

    • @sararnobre
      @sararnobre 7 років тому +1

      Gene Burnett about the #3 isn't all countries like that? We also have tourist or immigrants that can't speak Portuguese. P.S. Tks for that #2 fire it's making quite the a damage and reputation here...

    1. Feel
    2. It
    3. Still
    But for real, these guys deserve it. Met them after a show in New York and got to chat with them last year, before this new single/album. Great people, great musicians. We need more.

    I follow this band for some time now and this song is good but not that much. It's not that I dislike it, I do like it, it's definitely not their best song though. It's their most popular one. I hope people still like them when this popularity is gone and start paying attention on their musical quality; they've been changing since the beginning. I love this band

    @aemondoneeye5601 6 років тому +6

    The thing is, Portugal The Man has at least 40 songs that are better than Feel It Still, it's my favourite band and i don't even listen to this song, because sounds less like Portugal The Man and more like a top chart song.

    @TheFrankMcLunae 7 років тому +4

    I saw them preforming at Austin City Limits by chance, along with other acts, not knowing who they were, heck who any of them were and immediately listened to all of their albums after. Although, I admit, their name kind of confused me for a second. It's good stuff, but it's odd that you made this video, honestly. But who knows, someone hearing them for the first time may fall in love too.

    The band would be better left of as a hidden gem honestly. They were pretty popular before the mainstream took notice, because their songs are anything but for the masses. I'm tired of people butcher awesome bands with Incredible diverse songs into a 2-3 track band.

      In the 10+ years that have passed since that album came out, I still couldn't tell you the meaning of a single song on it, but I'll be damned if it isn't one of my favorite albums. The imagery used in each song is amazing.

    I still remember when Feel It Still was a bang on the radio and a friend played it on repeat, it was a decent song, but so overrated in comparison to others, songs like Stables and Chairs and Noise Pollution are so good, total favs, it’s surprising how underrated they are and back to obscurity again

      @KeijiMaeda86 7 років тому +7

      indie means they are not signed to major record lable. Indie bands can be hugely succesful and millionaires and still be "indie". Indie does NOT mean weird trash music some dipshits make in a run down apartment.

    • @MUSQUIZanimation
      @MUSQUIZanimation 7 років тому +1

      KeijiMaeda86 can't be. Watchmojo calls Portugal an indie band, but they are signed to Atlantic Records.

    • @KeijiMaeda86
      @KeijiMaeda86 7 років тому

      Their first label was Fearless. But you are right. Now they are under Atlantic. I honestly have no idea what Watchmojo's criteria for "indie" is then. They certainly aren't. I thought they were pretty mainstream since 2013 personally. But this is watchmojo... look at any of their Top10 ____ anime list and its clearly very very very subjective.

    • @OAlem
      @OAlem 7 років тому

      Independent music (often shortened to indie music or indie) is music produced independently from major commercial record labels or their subsidiaries. Gourley started out in ALASKA but they are on Atlantic Records now. The exact opposite of indie but still an awesome band.
      Remember, this is watchmojo- they play fast and loose with facts.

    WatchMojo can't even get their period in the band's name. All these damn non-hipsters like Portugal, now... It's so weird to me hearing Portugal. The Man on the radio, now.
    What's even weirder is why this is the song on their new album that's trending. I wouldn't even put this as the third best song on the record. So Young and Tidal Wave are just so much better. I guess if you like this band, check those songs out as well as Purple Yellow Red & Blue, Modern Jesus, People Say, The Sun, and Work All Day. Satanic Satanists was a really good one to drop into as well if you like this.
    I guess this is more of a catchy pop beat. Wondering if the radio is on a track toward folk and 'indie' music being the norm.
