Big Thief performs "UFOF" live in Studio A. Recorded 5/7/19.
Host: Alisa Ali
Audio: Jim O'Hara
Cameras: Alex Brennan, Brian Gallagher, Lili Huang and Jake Lee
Editor: Jake Lee
Currently, the most special band on the planet. (to me at least)
I can relate to that!
I just discovered Capacity their previous album and it’s just as good if not better than UFOF
sounds like an insult
Objectively
Me too since i discovered them in 2016!masterpiece album
what a chord progression dude
I’m still blown away by it
Adrianne is ridiculously talented
I love how mad they all look.
Guys wearing a headlamp..
That headlamp is defo peak Max
the world might never catch up to this
I am afraid you might be right. Everyone should hear this and feel embraced.
Rare to find lyrics like these these days. Absolutely fantastic.
"There will soon be proof
That there is no alien
Just a system of truth and lies
The reason, the language
And the law of attraction"
Honestly, that's the part of the lyrics I don't understand. What's your take on it?
@@mammontustado9680 i think its a political take on immigration- some racist twats in America like to call people who’ve immigrated “illegal aliens” so to me it seems like big theif are countering that ideology with these lyrics
I believe in aliens and ufos
@@tilzo_9752 nice take
@@tilzo_9752 Also definitely think there are some spiritual underpinnings there.
Listening to this while setting up the little telescope i just got ❤️
hoping for aliens....?
@@susaninmaine haha, one can only hope ! Maybe one that can take me out of here?
Most legit drummer on the planet right now. James Krivchenia - keep up the good work.
this song is like math to me, all the guitar picking and those beats, almost like I can try my hardest to understand it, and yet always in search for answers.
What a gem of a song. Love how the Hofner bass adds such a delicate underpinning and depth to the song. Also, her voice is hauntingly beautiful.
Unrequited mystical beauty. Brilliant song writing.
One the greatest songs you’ll hear out this year.
I love this band as much as any I've gotten into in 40+ years of loving music. Adrianne and Bucks solo and collaborative stuff is precious to me as well. It's not just great for newer stuff, it's just plain great period.
buck and adrianne harmonising = the best thing
[Verse 1]
To my UFO friend
Goodbye, goodbye
Like a seed in the wind
She's taking up root in the sky
See her flickering
Her system won't even try
To defend and ripen
In the radio action
[Verse 2]
She'll never return again
Polarize, polarize
The seasons will bend
There will soon be proof
That there is no alien
Just a system of truth and lies
The reason, the language
And the law of attraction
[Chorus]
Just like a bad dream
You'll disappear
Another map turns blue
Mirror on mirror
And I imagine you
Taking me outta here
To deepen our love
It isn't even a fraction
[Verse 3]
Switch to another lens
The last sunlight
I don't need any other friends
The best kiss I ever had is the flickering
Of the water so clear and bright
To leap in, my skin
And I could feel the reaction
[Chorus]
Just like a bad dream
You'll disappear
Another map turns blue
Mirror on mirror
And I imagine you
Taking me outta here
To deepen our love
It isn't even a fraction
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Just like a bad dream
You'll disappear
Another map turns blue
Mirror on mirror
And I imagine you
Taking me outta here
To deepen our love
It isn't even a fraction
their sound + adrianne's voice makes the experience pure magical
This is an astonishing song. Masterful songwriting. Almost proggy.
Yeah there really is something headfuckery and incredibly awesome about it
Proggy! I got that same reaction. This song truly satisfies me
prog folk. leave it to big thief
Wow this leaves me speechless..
Such a beautiful and mystical song. I imagine mist floating over a pretty lake.
Wow! The melody and voice make some real magic. I'm hypnotized by that.
Fleetwood Mac meets Radiohead
Jeff Davin this!
Plus Kate Bush's vocal stylings (imo).
Jessie Crishaun Oh absolutely
@@jeffdavin7956 and a bit of early Blonde Redhead.
YES
This will be on repeat for a long time. Great guitar parts by both Adrianne & Buck. Great drums. And check out the bass playing! Ah, I love it.
there`s john cale, Ari, a day-glo (yet soulful) drummer and a bassist who`s wearing a head lamp in a studio...i love them all.
Insanely good chords and melody
I love her
What a gorgeous song...
This song grows on you very subtly. Amazing song! Love it!
Ok. You don't see this level of talent every day
Never thought i would love a group of people so much
Gorgeous! Such a staggering tune
Wow. Unexpectedly So damn good. Incredible talent
I'm not surprised that this band is on 4AD Records She and they fit into a great 4AD tradition of fantastic, thoughtful music Love it!
I am at a loss for words. This was stunning. Immediate subscribe to the artist, btw.
I think Big Thief came from another planet.
Simply beautiful
💓💓 The world needs this kind of music even more...
top 5 tracks of 2019
So beautiful. All of it
spellbindingly beautiful...thank you
🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪Germany liebt euch 💥👌👍👍👍
i know it`s daft to say, but that drummer is fckin` soul.
Max is always up to something...
When I first heard this I thought this was Deb Talan from the Weepies who had listened to too much Radiohead. But now I'm glad to find this a band of its own -- and a damn good one.
I want to be this drummer
Magic song
Amazing
0:26 dude is getting ready to head a search team to find his friend who got lost in a cave.

Omg...laughed out loud at that...so funny
So good!
Oh my, what a find
Beautiful
So good.
Huge song ! Brillant and poetic...
This song is soooo fckn crazy lmao
Currently the best band, with the Fleet foxes.
Just the choosens can listen this beautiful song
😍🥰 You guys are awesome!
James looks like they found him on the side of the road and made him play drums for them
Awesome!
extraterrestre cette chanson !!! 🌠🌌🪐🌈
Reminds me of the elegant arrangements of Captain Beefheart... Musically speaking, of course.
the chord changes are very joniesque
yeah lots of nice modal mixture
♥
Amazing
unique /magic /chemistry
Drummer: “Her name is Christinith!”
Underrated comment, well played
guys you are like bros to me.
Could somebody tell me what's the tuning that Adrianne use?

12,495 views / july `19. My guess is 2, 5 million before july`20.
the galactic federation is not a myth , they are here and they are real , try the ''CE5'' protocol with an open mind and heart , respectfully...
peace
Why is the bassist wearing a headlamp? XD
Alvaro Pacheco why not? :)
cuz hipster
Because New Yorker hippies.
@@alexanderfinney3377 - why not....? well....maybe because it seems like it's trying way too hard, is an affectation, and which is sort of at odds with everything else about the band....
Jonie Mitchellesque
Fucking fantastic!
anyone know what her tuning is?
Gah... I love that!
not the best mix, but this version is gold
Radiohead
No
anyone know make and model of that bass?
does anyone know what tuning she's in? she's using some similar shapes to cattails but idk what tuning that is either.
Mark banano on the drums
drummer looking cracked out
what pickup are they using? i've seen it quite often
i figured it out .it's probably the sunrise s-2
@@andy6666 It sounds really great, but for $320 I'd hope it would!
@@mrt77wv it certainly blends well with the mic sound
Adrienne Lenker is the Amy Lee of 2019.
Terrible mic for Adriannes beautiful voice

POHA do crh
iK WIL ECHT ECHT NIET WETEN
Why the hell is one of the band members randomly wearing a Pretzl headlamp and with it "on," indoors!?
There got to be a way to signal, "I'm outdoorsy and odd and hip!" without being obnoxious.
Absolutely amazing, better than when a homeless man played Radiohead's Creep
she was with long hair, in lipstick and with a tooth? wtf!?
They look disgusting, but performing angelic.
fucking unreal i love it so much
