@@antonfjordson I wonder if you remember a show in the knitting factory where a girl was star struck by you and the band lol I am still embarrassed but I love u that much haha.. Maybe it was the bowery ballroom or some place in the City..

I'm a music addict. I live for music, it's what gets me up in the morning. It's the first thing I hear when I regain consciousness in the morning and the last thing I hear before I drift into oblivion at night. A very good friend introduced me to Anton, and I have never been able to get enough since. Love.
@@Kevin-ro1fo me too Kevin. If music isn't playing and im reading then an audio book is with me 24/7. Anything to slow down the brain and get some peace. I found it elsewhere but lost my career. Lucky man to still have my family though. Blessings from the middle of Ireland :")
This song reminds me of the time I spent with my girlfriend. I relive this beautiful feeling of love over and over again, trying to remember the best days spent with her. Every day I listen to this song several times, because it is the only thing that can give me a dose of hormones of happiness, but at the same time and sadness.
I had a difficult night and ended up taking a drive and replaying this song over and over and it made me feel so much better. Thank you for always creating the best music Anton
Undoubtedly, his music is great, but when it comes to getting more exposure or lack of there of has been of his own making. I think his own paranoid has led him to have tons of problem not only with his own fellow musicians, but with any record label that tried to make business with him. There is a documentary around that shows exactly where the problem resides. Too bad because his music is legendary!
Midobecker Gundisalvus bro its clear his art is very personal to him. Making music and the music industry are so different and that sucks. Like u said you dont have to be big to be legendary. We all here right now 🙏
They are very well known and appreciated by the right people. They are not and have never been mainstream. The music business has a habit of stereotyping artists into a mold that is already known to be profitable. I don’t think he/they ever wanted that. They are legends in their own right without any cheesy marketing or pr bullshit
I was born in 1970 and I discovered you a month ago. Here in Italy we say: "better late than never". I'm buying some of your CDs ,,some are hard to find . Thanks for your great music
@@bobp363 fuck off. They rely on completely different musical qualities. Do your research instead of relying on the validation UA-cam criticism provides you.
Anton is definitely the most under appreciated musician ever.....I feel spoiled by his contributions to music....gem after gem after gem etc......props
I probably shouldn't be as excited about this as I am. Fingertips was originally written for Pol Pot's Pleasure Penthouse, which was The Brian Jonestown Massacre's first ever demo tape. The first time I heard that version of the song, I thought was one of the most wonderful things ever, a perfect blend of the Stone Roses' Madchester and the Cocteau Twins dream pop. The song was basically abandoned after the demo was released, I've never heard/seen any footage of it performed live, the lyrics were impossible to determine and I was just disappointed that the song was so damn obscure. The fact that this video exists means that the song is being revisited for a new BJM record, meaning that hopefully, all of the above will be corrected.
There's a documentary on the early years I watched when I was in high school called "Dig!" Of course, BJM is just a different thing these days than what's in the documentary, though Anton's music is still just as incredible as ever
@@flimflam6652 what he said^ this movie is amazing and BJM's third is in my top 10 @Half Alive check out Anton's A Recordings some amazing bands like The Blue Angel Lounge, Dirty Beaches and Weird Owl to be found there!
This is the first song of Brian Jonestown Massacre I heard. I have yet to hear a bad track from this band. It's all about the groove. Just found them a couple of months ago.
I remember I heard this song when I was 8 years old and i didn’t knew the name , but the Sound and rhythm were in my mind . It was about two years I finally found it thanks to a British photographer I met in a concert . This is one of the best songs in history , love it.
My car got stolen a year ago. Today I'm sitting in my new car (it's everything I ever wanted), racing down a free open road with the beautiful sun setting amongst thunder clouds behind me, blasting this song, lightning chasing me. Jumped off the ledge of my old life and falling towards a new better life to this theme song
Ok, Anton, Thank you. Thank you so much you and the Brian Jonestown Massacre band. Everytime I am up or I get down I listen to your music and I fall in love with life again. Dancing to your music give me so much joy I can't describe. Thank you a thousand time, thank you for telling me to be the way you do. Thank you for beauty.
@@TSWislaK Ain't it amazing how music can do that?! For me it started with the band Dr. Dog. But that enlightening musical obsession started me on a path that has led me across genres and artists and has currently brought me to BJM and I'm psyched. I walked out of a therapist's office after a session where I finally realized and accepted that shit had hit bottom for me. Thankfully I had just enough optimism to believe that there was only one direction I could reasonably go from there -- up -- but it was going to take some hard work for which I didn't feel strong enough and courage that I didn't think I had. Then I'm sitting in my car and just started humming the one Dr. Dog song I already knew, and that was it. I found a playlist of them, put it on, drove home, and I couldn't believe how validating and empowering their music was. It lit the fire that got me rolling and years later I'm still climbing, but through good and bad, I'm so thankful I have great music.
Lyrics! If anyone was wondering... Looking through the looking glass, All that seems won't ever last, Broken glass in every tree, Natural love I've never seen. Slipping through my fingertips like sand. Slipping through my fingertips, sand. Stare into the drinking glass, Walking slow, faces pass, Sipping through my fingertips, like sand. Sipping through my fingertips, each time. Sipping through my fingertips, sand. Can finally sing along now! It seems that the lyrics were changed up a bit from the original in a few places.
This song never gets old for me. Anyplace, anytime, it always manages to make me feel at ease. And don’t get me started on how good this song feels when I’m on LSD.
i found a documentary of some sort of this band on UA-cam call DIG...i was instantly hooked on them their sound is soooo cool.. this song is so nice, its the first one i picked to hear some of their stuff, i love it!!! cant wait to hear more, the girls voice is mesmerizing
I'm embarrassingly new to BJM. Indeed it was only via a Dead Meadow playlist i was listening to over Christmas and New year that i had my first experience of this band. I remember hearing about them back in the mid 90's, i've heard friends and colleagues talk about them, but for one reason or another i never investigated or ever heard any songs. I am now hooked. As far as this song is concerned, for some reason it reminds me of 'Safari' by The Breeders. When i first heard it, it sounded familiar and took me directly to 'Safari'. I think it's the drum hook. Either way, this track is fucking mind meltingly awesome. I'm delighted that i've now been introduced to this incredible band.

Now way, I literally discovered these dudes because of an incident that happened on stage between 2 of the members, I had no idea they were this good lol.
There really is nothing quite like BJTM, the feeling and emotion this song is played with by them absolutely shines through and massages your soul. I’m sad to say I only discovered the band existed a couple of years ago so I’m late to the party, but I’m telling you, this music heals you from within. Beautiful…
This piece of music… I couldn’t get it out of my head for months after it came out.. and it’s still lives in my mind . Anton thank you. And Tess. Slipping through my fingertips every time❤
I became a disciple of Anton's many years there are really an set of descriptive words that does justice to the raw energy an power its not created just to entertain but a true awakening of something bigger than ... If only the mindless less thans could realize whether its Anton's discography or one verse its a cosmic blessing the of not only enjoying on an audio standpoint but the spiritual connection of a universe of connection to realize he let's you just feel good but other times slams a mirror to the nature of who you really are , when you look at the reflection of your soul its a sorrowful unrepaireable series of bad interactions with karma . Anton is pure genuis . more than Galileo, Hawkins and Enstien combined there for anyones enlightenment. Simply have to listen
Sometimes I have to purposely deprive myself of listening to Anton or TBJM because if not my mind starts tripping by itself no matter how sober or lucid I am. Anton I f*cking love you man!
'cause you're making me feel like I've never been born. Seriously, Anton, is there anything you can't do with music that reaches your listener's hearts. Thank you so much for all that you do. True inspiration and Legend.
This is a really cool and faithfully contemporary take on the original from the demo cassette! I am really feeling Tess' vocals on this, and the lesser emphasis on the shoegaze element, and more so towards the psych direction instead. Nice one Anton! Can't wait to hear the final product if and when it does drop! :)
Never forget where I first heard this song introducing me to the Brian Jonestown Massacre and Tess Parks, Hole in the Wall Bar & Cafe Silema, Malta. I haven't been the same since.
This song makes my heart race. I can't stop listening to it. I preordered the record and digital off of ITunes, have to wait unit June to hear it my car. Buy some great music today!
I swear to God there are times you hear a band for the very and they blow your mind. The Brian Jonestown Massacre are one of those wtf moments as a teenager got me hooked on this legendary cult band who deserved to be up there with thee greatest rock n roll bands ever. So many unbelievable songs including this
One of those songs that you wish would never end. Interesting enough it often runs through my head on loops in my dreams, and when I awake from sleep. Always blissful.
I have stumbled once on this song a forever ago tripping on 3 tabs one night, and this song took me to the WORLDS! And every time i having my "adventures" i am starting with this song. Anton you are my god.
Reminds me of my last Seattle visit. Winter almost here. But still can see the autumn leafs spread in the streets. Snowy mountains in the background. Beautiful lighthouse hidden in discovery park. Seagulls flying all over in the pier. Cold, but not freezing. Cool music played in downtown. Christmas about to start.
One word: MASTERPIECE !! I had discovered this song thanks to the Pol Pot's demos and I was just amazed by how good it was. So glad to see this song now recorded with Tess haunting vocals. Thank you Anton, you never disappoint. :) Next time you come to Paris, I won't miss you!
Brief review of 4/12/22 BJM show on East Colfax in Denver... with weeks to recuperate it was a blast. Dude next to me was into Joel, big time and I got his lady to yell. "Fingertips," between songs. That didn't happen, but my ride was blown away and we ended up at a gay bar called "The Tight End," where we met 2 show refugees for laughs and concurrence over BJM's enduring coolness/humility. We're all into psychedelic guitar music, which, thesedays, is like folk music. Cheers!
It's nice to be able to hear a clearer production of this song. This is the track that started my lifelong jones for BJM. POL POTS ... is prolly the best demo to be released.
My favorite BJM song since I first heard it. Might of been the first one I heard too but dont remember. Reminded me of "I wanna be adored" at first but now just sounds like itself to me.
just found this band and have been listening to even song in a row, then I came to this which is has such an amazing, nostalgic sound. It kind of captures the sound of youth and freedom. Every song seems to get better!
This is great as it is I think Anton. The super cool thing about your work for me is that I only discovered it last year and I'm still finding tracks I've never heard which resonate with me and I just 'get'. Got a bit freaky on 3 lsd tabs a few years ago which altered my perception. Of any new bands I discover or get recommended, BJM stands out with tracks like this. I have the same satisfaction also from bowie tracks I've never heard such as "slip away" from "Heathern". BJM is an inspiration. Thanks.
In spite of all the hullabaloo about Anton, this guy and his band of merry men and women are one of the greatest, most original, & highly creative musicians in American history !
Its a solid tune like most are, but i don't hear anything original.This one is a mix of Mazzy Star on Vocals.The Cure circa (1990-1991) upfront and The Edge ( 1982-1983) whaling in the background and a pretty basic bass riff ..The first couple times i heard it it was pretty simple to figure where they got the influences for on this track..still rocks though.
@@bobp363 the influences are more Lush, My Bloody Valentine or The Telescopes for voice and melody and The Stone Roses/The Charlatans/Madchester baggy bands for the rhythm. Doesn't sound anything like The Cure or that guy from U2...
I’m a commenting addict. I live for commenting, it’s what gets me up in the morning. It’s the first thing I do when I regain sensation within my thumbs and it’s the last thing I do before I drift into median nerve compression every night. A very good friend introduced me to UA-cam and I have never been able to get enough since. Passion.
Mike Landis how would you know? I can’t speak for the running through the mountains bit because what does that have to do with anything? As for being on acid. No this song is not like being on acid. If it is. It’s a weak trip. May I suggest something off Methodrone
@@jonathanpidock5599 the first time I heard this song I was camping in the mountains, balls deep in one of the best trips of my life. I was running to this song in a loop through the woods around my campsite and thinking this is the most free I'll ever be
So very glad 'Fingertips' survived. The first BJM song I remember ever hearing, from a cassette tape sent to Bomp Records' Greg Shaw in '91. It took a year to actually Find Anton Newcombe, but it was worth the wait! I do love this track. Is that Eufloria on vox?
When I listen to this song I feel like I'm blasting off into something I can't describe. 10 years ago I would listen to this song ritualistically, every morning on my drive to the apiary I worked at. I'd hear the song and imagine pushing the pedal to the metal until I broke spacetime. Here now, I listen to the song and the same feeling arises. There is a mysterious, almost mystical quality to this sound that I love. Especially the original, even though I love this version almost as much.
So me and my boyfriend both took three hits of voidrealm cid...fucked for hours and listened to nothing but BJM records. Not a fucking song was skipped. It was beautiful and magic. I painted naked and sweaty after and prayed to god in thanks that life can be so sweet.

One of the best songs of all time, the 2 note riff spiraling at you faster and faster until descending for that delicious lick is unbelievable

Every day I listen to this song several times, because it is the only thing that can give me a dose of hormones of happiness, but at the same time and sadness.
You must press on and witness the blessing given and not grasp at the past. It can block the present
But yes, music is good.
ay bro i feel but no simping here , onto the next one
Bro had me thinking she died. Hope you moved on!
*Nostalgia* is an addictive drug, which in time degrades into *Longing* which is a deep sickness.
Don't do this to yourself.

I used to listen to BJM working my night shifts. what a perfect soundtrack this music is

Looking through the looking glass,
All that seems won't ever last,

Stare into the drinking glass,
Walking slow, faces pass,
Sipping through my fingertips, like sand.
Sipping through my fingertips, each time.
Sipping through my fingertips, sand.
Can finally sing along now! It seems that the lyrics were changed up a bit from the original in a few places.

'cause you're making me feel like I've never been born. Seriously, Anton, is there anything you can't do with music that reaches your listener's hearts. Thank you so much for all that you do. True inspiration and Legend.
Wow, as you get older you realise there are so many good sounds you have missed. Then you discover them via friends etc. This is one. brilliant.
A favourite at the moment
Alice is in wonderful land
Looking through the looking glass 🔎 pure class
Reminds me of the Chuska mountains. Of moonlit nights there and long drives into Colorado.
This always was one of my favourite BJM songs. To do this again with Tess Parks is beyond inspired.
Thank you.
I love how on edge it is of several feelings (to me at least) : melancholic, dark, happy.. it's perfect :)
This is a really cool and faithfully contemporary take on the original from the demo cassette! I am really feeling Tess' vocals on this, and the lesser emphasis on the shoegaze element, and more so towards the psych direction instead.
Nice one Anton! Can't wait to hear the final product if and when it does drop! :)
I had missed the fact that this was a new recording until I saw your comment. Going back and finding the shoegazier original was a treat, I dig both
Just booked my ticket for Newcastle gig 2023! Can't fucking wait!
Thank you for playing this for your fans in Portland Oregon!
Never forget where I first heard this song introducing me to the Brian Jonestown Massacre and Tess Parks, Hole in the Wall Bar & Cafe Silema, Malta. I haven't been the same since.
This song makes my heart race. I can't stop listening to it. I preordered the record and digital off of ITunes, have to wait unit June to hear it my car. Buy some great music today!
I swear to God there are times you hear a band for the very and they blow your mind. The Brian Jonestown Massacre are one of those wtf moments as a teenager got me hooked on this legendary cult band who deserved to be up there with thee greatest rock n roll bands ever. So many unbelievable songs including this
@antonmewcombe sir, this is transcendent. You are on my bucket list of concerts I must attend before I die.
tess parks is not only gorgeous & wow, what a voice! oh, to have it all...
One of those songs that you wish would never end. Interesting enough it often runs through my head on loops in my dreams, and when I awake from sleep. Always blissful.
one of my favourite songs ever, summery, blissful, antidepressive
Oh, man! That original demo has always been one of my favorites of your songs. This is fantastic. Thank you once again!
BJM songs always seem to have a hopefulness underlying the blissful melodies.
Just been reminded why I love this band so much. X
pretty stoked that "The Chats " are up next !
i wasnt that lucky!
I have stumbled once on this song a forever ago tripping on 3 tabs one night, and this song took me to the WORLDS! And every time i having my "adventures" i am starting with this song. Anton you are my god.
Just never can get enough of this band! Melt into obilvion... So love them!
Reminds me of my last Seattle visit.
Winter almost here. But still can see the autumn leafs spread in the streets.
Snowy mountains in the background.
Beautiful lighthouse hidden in discovery park.
Seagulls flying all over in the pier.
Cold, but not freezing.
Cool music played in downtown.
Christmas about to start.
One word: MASTERPIECE !!
I had discovered this song thanks to the Pol Pot's demos and I was just amazed by how good it was.
So glad to see this song now recorded with Tess haunting vocals. Thank you Anton, you never disappoint. :)
Next time you come to Paris, I won't miss you!
Okay, the 27th of June at the Trianon, can't wait!
Brief review of 4/12/22 BJM show on East Colfax in Denver... with weeks to recuperate it was a blast. Dude next to me was into Joel, big time and I got his lady to yell. "Fingertips," between songs. That didn't happen, but my ride was blown away and we ended up at a gay bar called "The Tight End," where we met 2 show refugees for laughs and concurrence over BJM's enduring coolness/humility. We're all into psychedelic guitar music, which, thesedays, is like folk music. Cheers!
It's nice to be able to hear a clearer production of this song. This is the track that started my lifelong jones for BJM.
POL POTS ... is prolly the best demo to be released.
My favorite BJM song since I first heard it. Might of been the first one I heard too but dont remember. Reminded me of "I wanna be adored" at first but now just sounds like itself to me.
Can't write a better psych pop tune than this. Blows me away...
Ah, the things that have taken place in our lives , in the past, the regrets, the joys, this song helps me bring them back into play.
another incredible song from Anton. I am simply floored by how much quality music is put out by this man.
My favorite song of all the times !
just found this band and have been listening to even song in a row, then I came to this which is has such an amazing, nostalgic sound. It kind of captures the sound of youth and freedom. Every song seems to get better!
This is great as it is I think Anton. The super cool thing about your work for me is that I only discovered it last year and I'm still finding tracks I've never heard which resonate with me and I just 'get'. Got a bit freaky on 3 lsd tabs a few years ago which altered my perception. Of any new bands I discover or get recommended, BJM stands out with tracks like this. I have the same satisfaction also from bowie tracks I've never heard such as "slip away" from "Heathern". BJM is an inspiration. Thanks.
"The band you love to hate, the band you hate to love". ❤
I never get tired of listening to this song. And I love this newer version too.
the output from this guy. first song to the latest. always awesome. its fkn uncanny
In spite of all the hullabaloo about Anton, this guy and his band of merry men and women are one of the greatest, most original, & highly creative musicians in American history !
He is the band.
i totally agree...
Its a solid tune like most are, but i don't hear anything original.This one is a mix of Mazzy Star on Vocals.The Cure circa (1990-1991) upfront and The Edge ( 1982-1983) whaling in the background and a pretty basic bass riff ..The first couple times i heard it it was pretty simple to figure where they got the influences for on this track..still rocks though.
Literally says 'tess parks' as the vocals on the description. If you're gonna give your opinion, at least give your informed opinion.
@@bobp363 the influences are more Lush, My Bloody Valentine or The Telescopes for voice and melody and The Stone Roses/The Charlatans/Madchester baggy bands for the rhythm. Doesn't sound anything like The Cure or that guy from U2...
Simply euphoric, each and every time! Genuinely can’t imagine a piece of music making me feel more alive than this, ever! Masterpiece! ❤
If Boards of Canada made a rock song it would be this right here. Following BJM since 13 and they always have something new to say
I’m a commenting addict. I live for commenting, it’s what gets me up in the morning. It’s the first thing I do when I regain sensation within my thumbs and it’s the last thing I do before I drift into median nerve compression every night. A very good friend introduced me to UA-cam and I have never been able to get enough since. Passion.
This is what running through the mountains on acid feels like
Mike Landis Confirmed.
Mike Landis how would you know? I can’t speak for the running through the mountains bit because what does that have to do with anything? As for being on acid. No this song is not like being on acid. If it is. It’s a weak trip. May I suggest something off Methodrone
@@jonathanpidock5599 the first time I heard this song I was camping in the mountains, balls deep in one of the best trips of my life. I was running to this song in a loop through the woods around my campsite and thinking this is the most free I'll ever be
this ones a keeper.
This is absolutely incredible, even by BJM usual standards. My word I can't get enough of it.
i can't handle how good this is at all oh my god
oh man! the original is one of my favourite bjm songs
So very glad 'Fingertips' survived. The first BJM song I remember ever hearing, from a cassette tape sent to Bomp Records' Greg Shaw in '91. It took a year to actually Find Anton Newcombe, but it was worth the wait! I do love this track. Is that Eufloria on vox?
I feel butlerflies in my stomach. The psychedelic sound of San Francisco
When I listen to this song I feel like I'm blasting off into something I can't describe. 10 years ago I would listen to this song ritualistically, every morning on my drive to the apiary I worked at. I'd hear the song and imagine pushing the pedal to the metal until I broke spacetime. Here now, I listen to the song and the same feeling arises. There is a mysterious, almost mystical quality to this sound that I love. Especially the original, even though I love this version almost as much.
Here's another then.

Midway Inn I dig The Dandelions . Doffferent vice though. More 60s psych and less blast off vibes . Super good though !
Midway Inn also dig. But more of a derivative.
Vibe*
So me and my boyfriend both took three hits of voidrealm cid...fucked for hours and listened to nothing but BJM records. Not a fucking song was skipped. It was beautiful and magic. I painted naked and sweaty after and prayed to god in thanks that life can be so sweet.
We will be at Bilbao´s Antzokia on next friday just for this song, please do not disappoint us Anton, we love u !
Perfect, just perfect.
Great vibe and build up, then trippy vocals. Very nice indeed.
