Just thinking about the fact that for some people this will be their intro to boygenius’s music and I’m absolutely excited for them
Thanks. That would be me, I guess. I am going to share it with my friend.
@@stefaniepech2087 :D enjoy!! They released an album this year and an EP back in 2018. There are also a couple of great interviews/collective profiles for those who find themselves wanting to get to know them better as musicians.
I was at the live taping yesterday, watched them perform this live, and instantly loved it! Very grateful to have seen them live, and excited to listen to more of their music.
Guilty 😭
I'd heard of boygenius before and had bought their first EP after falling in love with Phoebe Bridgers's and Lucy Dacus's work as solo artists. Great!@@tymo9288
babe wake up boygenius three way kissed on live national tv
It's OK, because there's a honey in the middle. That's the Golden Rule. (SNL).
And it was beautiful and so glorious! 💋💋💋
You know it's gonna be good when Phoebe pulls out that old black acoustic. You know it's gonna be AMAZING when Julien comes in with a banjo.
THIS
especially the queer joy banjo
It's wonderful when three musicians who are already remarkable in their own rights join together so smoothly.
I said the same thing this morning. We’re all lucky for it!
‘Salt In The Wound’ may always be my favorite.
I feel very old or out of touch… Who are they each in their own right? Individual singers that I don’t know, or parts of other bands? Why did they come together?
@@michelehaase5197 They are all indie singers since 2010s. On the left, that's Phoebe Bridgers. She has 2 albums, Stranger in the Alps and Punisher. Middle is Lucy Dacus. She has 3 albums, No Burden, Historian, and Home Video. Right one is Julien Baker. She also has 3 albums. Sprained Ankle, Turn Out The Lights, and Little Oblivions. Correct me if im wrong but i think they knew each other since 2016 and they formed the group in 2018 and released an EP. Then they went hiatus and went on individually on their own again and then released some songs from their individual albums with all three included as vocal back ups. And then just lately, they released The Record. It is absolutely groundbreaking i love them sm i recommend you listen to their individual works.
2 remarkable musicians and Lucy
@@jefftaylor8782 That's wholly unfair and completely inaccurate to boot! I am a self-confessed Julien Baker nut (who regards JB as approaching Joni's level - who incidentally I saw live 40 years ago), but when I saw boygenius in London in August (in my 1,261st gig, just to dispel any accusations of possible musical naievety), I came away also a Lucy Dacus convert!
I love how Julien takes a verse, then Lucy takes a verse, then Julien and Lucy harmonize, then Phoebe takes a verse and they ALL harmonize.
I think there's symbolism here. Toxic relationships are something we all face individually. But it's also a collective problem and a social problem. We feel alone when we are in these situations. But there are countless other people who have faced something similar. And if we have a conversation about it, it can get better.
The song builds itself. Lovely. I wonder if they each wrote a verse...
If this is your first time hearing Boygenius, give the whole record a go! They’re amazing.
🌿👠 It's not but only because my son played DJ for me while in town over the weekend.
We deep dove into their music, both solo & super group & I fell flat in love with them. That they are here after he is at home so far away & your enthusiasm - I'm truly grateful. Blessings, new friend.
This is my first time and I’m hooked!
This is my first time hearing them - what do you recommend I listen to next ? Loving what I am hearing here.
@@Silkytoaster Since boygenius is a "supergroup" of three fantastic solo artists, the easiest recommendation is to go and explore each of their respective solo works :)
I personally am partial to Julien's first album "Sprained Ankle"
@@Silkytoastertheir whole album called The Record. Specifically “Not Strong Enough” is a great song
Their vocal blend is just so fantastic. Haunting performance.
My first time hearing Boygenius and I must say… they sound great!! Very heavenly
Listen to the record
this is an incredible “first time hearing” performance!
@@leeaaa27 You got that right!!!
you should know they are all accomplished singer songwriters individually, making this effectively a supergroup. phoebe bridgers, lucy dacas, and julien baker all have amazing albums worth checking out.
Welcome friend! I def recommend anything they've released.
This feels like one of those hugs where you just hold on tight and then start losing your balance because you're hugging too much.
boygenius is one of those instances where "The whole is greater than the sum of its parts" isn't just a cliche.
And with such phenomenal parts of the whole, too!
Reminiscent of Simon & Garfunkel yet completely their own sound. boygenius and MUNA give me life.
The nod to them is on purpose.
Apparently Paul Simon is credited on this song, since it is inspired by the boxer
So good to know! Thank you.
I think more like a Crosby stills n nash
@@kimmyawesomeness4184this is good to know because I heard it and immediately smelled a lawsuit 😂
so so so proud of the boys and JULIEN'S VOICE IS SO SO SO GOOD OMG I HAD GOOSEBUMPS EVERYWHERE
Her voice is incredible.
Yes, I love it so.
Lucy Dacus is so damn good. I hopped out of my seat seeing her here.
This. Musicians playing and singing music. No need for fireworks. More of this, please.
Stephen seems so happy at the end. Beautiful and haunting performance.
they take their shirts off lol
oh trust me the do the fireworks too. quite literally
Got a little teary-eyed seeing such a beautiful friendship that so beautifully blurs the line between platonic and romantic when they kissed at the end. So glad I had the chance to ugly-cry and get laryngitis when I saw them at Red Rocks. Hope they get many more fans, and that they show others how beautiful being queer can be.
Thank you for your service Stephen Colbert
this is a proof of a joint slay
(older straight white guy here) I was NOT expecting to be weeping the whole time. Amazing everything.
Saw them at MSG yesterday, best live performance I’ve ever been to. So much talent and stage presence.
Keep on trying this is a low level.
🌿✨I can imagine, it must have brought joy, laughter & tears. Their recorded music does so Live must blow out every emotion.
My son just introduced them to me this weekend. We listened to their solo work as well & watched the available vids. I find their music to be balm for the shredded soul.
The MSG show was one of the greatest moments of my life. The energy of the entire audience was so wholesome and so rich with love and affection for the music.
I wish I'd had them &Billie when i was a teen & young adult. I'm enthralled, mesmerized & enchanted every video I've seen & now this ....as a retired music teacher & pianist, I'm obsessed with discovering all the brilliant, supertalented, honest & thoughtful new young musicians like them! ❤
Thank you for teaching the younger generations! The future is bright.
Thanks for sharing this.
The kiss at the end gave me goosebumps!!
I cried😄🥰
Tears!!! Happy tears.
I am thinking they're gong to get an AOTY Grammy nomination at least, but this one deserves a Song Of The Year (songwriters' award). This is easily the best song this year.
me when you predicted the future 🤭
Absolutely thrilled to see that they got SIX Grammy noms! They deserve to win every category, imho. ❤
And they won three. 🥹
julien's harmony always adds the perfect depth ❤
Made it to the end of "school" before the tears came. What a gorgeous song.
🩵🩵🩵
They are so good! And their new EP is coming out 13th October 🥳
Just knew about it! Can't wait
No wayyy
@@Dreamfastt Yes way, named "The Rest" 🤌
Likely b-sides
Shades of Simon and Garfunkel. Incredible harmonies and acoustic guitar that sound so good it needs no further embellishment.
Simply beautiful...its a haunting melody, with 3 three beautiful voices creating a safe space of musical heaven.
And I am gobsmacked by your comment. "Creating a Safe Space of Musical Heaven" I already poured out my story in comments but your comment is profound & I am blessed. Thank you.
BTW If you don't already write, you must, by your words, people are made to feel better. You showed with words how 'Their Voices Open A Musical Portal Of Sacred Space' & I am so Completely Grateful.
This was a pleasant surprise! When you take 3 already-celebrated musicians and put them together- you get some fabulous suit tailoring and every good thing about music.
love
This is one of my favorite boygenius performances, and believe me i've watched many.
Peak genius of the boys
Nice lil homage to "the Boxer" by Simon and Garfunkel in that verse melody line. What wonderful harmony. Julien has a mastery of tone and volume when layering.
I’m sad SAG is on strike but I’m glad musicians I love get to promote their craft on late night! Hope Rina Sawayama and Hozier get to come on soon
i don’t usually cry listening to music and ive heard this song before but idk this is the first time i really digested the lyrics and i teared up a bit ngl
it's like i'm watching Prairie Home Companion live rather than listening to it on the radio. i miss those days TTwTT
this is the most perfect late night performance i have ever seen. not a note out of place
Fantastic. One of those "you could hear a pin drop" moments- everything was magical.
THE BOYS DID IT AGAIN. By far my favorite performance of cool about it
the little kiss at the end was perfect. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!
I got choked up along with Stephen on that one. I don’t think I’d have been able to speak. Absolutely stunning!
they are ethereal. glowing, shining angels.
I can’t describe how much I loved that. Actual tears.
gooooooooooooosebumps forever whenever they three open their mouths
omg their tender little kiss 🥺
My favourite song of probably the last 10 years, absolutely adore these three.
OK, probabaly ever. @@brokeneggshell5041
Yes. So dang good.
They sound so incredibly clear it’s beautiful
The boys seem to have a love of using an omnidirectional mic. They've all used one for various performances & online concerts (like Lucy's Tiny Desk Concert back during the Pandemic lockdown). That kind of microphone has a beautiful quality when it comes to picking up the subtle nuances of a singer's voice.
Absolutely magical performance from boygenius.
Three part harmonies and three way kisses 🙌🙌🙌
...is three times better than anything else I've listened to this year. I looove the way they share the intimacy of their friendship & music so freely. Makes my heart three times bigger every time I listen to the record ❤❤❤
the boys truly are back in town
The song is just the thing because it expresses how I feel about a dear friend who is alcoholic and going down and I can't do anything about it , my hands are tied.
What a gorgeous sound. I’m happy to have discovered this group!
Ditto!!
They are each amazing musicians on their own, but something absolutely magical happens when you bring their voices together.
Here is their full discography (plus a few solo tracks from each of the boys) for your listening pleasure!

Get on the train now, folks. In a month, when the Grammy nominees come out, everyone will be talking about them!
the way they’re singing with and at each other is so special. love them so dearly 🫶🏼
Wow, always saw people posting about them but never heard a song. This is amazing. Goosebumps. LOVE their guitar playing also
That reeked of Joni Mitchell and Emmylou Harris.
So good!
🤘🧙♂️🤘
Yes, the 'boys ' are killing it lately. It gives me hope for the future of music and, frankly, this country that they're so popular right now. ❤
I love them so much in every version but I love their harmonies more than ANYthing.
I saw this posted on Facebook, listened to it, and have had The Record on repeat for weeks bc of it. What a great song.
They literally CAN'T make a bad song! If you listen to all of their albums in order, you'll find a reason to love every single one. And I'm including "the rest" EP in that statement. They are amazing performers in their own rights, but something absolutely magical happens when you put their voices together!
Wow ❤These women are incredible! I had to Google them. The origin story of the name boygenius is brilliant👸🏻👸🏼👸🏼
My introduction to the group and the individual artists. Heard of the group but knew nothing about them. This song reminds me of The Boxer S&G with an Indigo Girls vibe. I think I could like them!
Boygenius needed to form to launch these three into the stratosphere, which they've deserved for years. Hoping they'll start to make a dent on the charts soon. It's gotta happen.
The album made it all the way to number 4 on the Billboard 200 and "Not Strong Enough" made it to No. 1 on the Adult Alternative Airplay chart back in June.
I can’t tell if they’re young or old
@@UnderstandingDarknessYou can wiki ages... They’re Lucy Dacus, Julien Baker and Phoebe Bridgers.
They’re each probably 25 - 35. No idea.
*edited typos
@@genghis_conniethey’re all 28 except phoebe who is 29
@@genghis_conniebridgers* and 28-29
That was the best performance ever on this show, had both me and my bf crying.
True words my exact sediments ! ❤💐💐💙💙
That’s one of the best live performances I’ve heard in a very long time. Great song too.
Boygenius is the best supergroup in decades, and arguably the best rock band of 2023. We fans would love another album a few years from now. Let this not be the end.
Love boygenius, and this album. I have to biggest crush on Phoebe Bridgers
My crush is mostly on Lucy. She's just so beautiful through & through.
I love these boys ❤❤❤
everything is cool about this performance
They were born to sing together.
I had never heard of them until seeing this. Nice sound to them.
i cannot believe how much my babies have grown. im so incredibly proud of them, they mean the world to me.
How wonderfully sapphic ❤
❤️
Indeed. My heart skipped a lovely beat as a witness to such beautiful intimacy 💋
This is a cool supergroup. Great songwriting and singing.
What a magnificent trio. Chills and even tears from the skill and poignancy of their song. BRAVO!
Gorgeous performance of this song. Love that Stephen comes back out at the end looking like he's been weeping
i am astonished
Sheeeesh I LOVE Boy Genius
OG fan of all 3
And Lucy is my Hüge crush
☝🫀
Stunning performance and beautifully presented by The Late Show.
had my own "cool about it" moment in my life today and it's just so insane that these three can encapsulate such a specific emotion so perfectly in the confines of such a short song, truly hits home and I appreciate this song so much for helping me out with such a strange emotion
First song I’ve heard by them and oh my word 🙁🫶🏽
I love their solo careers, they’re incredible at their own but when they get together something else happens and it’s not just the music ❤️🔥 I’m so grateful for boygenius, this band was my introduction to all of them 4 years ago and I honestly thought that we wouldn’t hear from them (as boygenius) again… so I’ll never take for grounded this album
This song is so gorgeous. Yall, The Record is so good, and they are so good live. I love this band so much.
Along with Big Thief, the best thing going right now. Just incredible.
I love discovering new things to love. Thanks very much! : )
If you enjoy it I recommend you listen to their record, “the record.”
It’s a worthwhile album. Melodic, interesting lyrics, beautiful tones.
This band gives me life.
cant stop sending this clip to everyone i know who loves music..gorgeous...love these amazing young artists !
their voices melt so beautifully together and i love their lyrics so much 🩷
A little Joy Comes💙💙💙Love you Lucy Phoebe Julien
god, they all look so beautiful 😭😭😭
reminds me a lot of the days when Crosby, Stills and Nash were singing like Angels, I 🥰 boygenius
Did you know the cover of the first boygenius EP (2018) is modeled after the cover of the 1969 self-titled CSN album? The boys are that open about the music that influences them.
They also shot their Rolling Stone cover as a tribute to Nirvana. And the record (2023) was almost titled "In Rainbows" (they are Radiohead fans).
Three is a magic number.
😘@@LaraLinx
Amazing, plus the triple kiss 🤌
Actual goosebumps. This is such amazing music and so beautifully performed.
i love this song too much
absolutely outstanding!
i'm so incredibly proud of them i'm gonna cry. infinitely grateful for my boys and their music and everything they do
Yes, OMG this is the way this song is meant to be. What a great performance and the show produced it beautifully.
the tender sweet smooch at the end 🥹 models in music, models for love
the kiss at the end omggg 🥹
I immediately got a Simon & Garfunkel feel from their performance. Different, for sure, but just a similar feel. They're very good!
To be crystal clear, I loved S & G back in the day and miss having that kind of influence in the music industry. I'm glad boygenius has come along.
The Boxer 😊
They credit the Boxer as inspiration for this song in the liner notes, I think
@@shemgreenwood559 Your message gave me a lift or, perhaps, an ego boost that I may have picked up on a vide. That is cool!! Thanks!!
Love the song! Love them!! They're amazing!!
they sound like angels (never gods)
Such a sweet song.❤
I'm so proud of my boys, they've come so far!
Their voices is amazing
This was absolutely gorgeous!
