I saw them back then, really weird it wasn't sold out then. I was really lucky that they played this as well! They haven't played Black Gold much since.
I saw them tour this album in Chicago at Lincoln Hall. They played many songs from antidotes. I've seen them many times since then and I get annoyed by the set lists of late. HF and WWD are cool but I don't like the "hits" on those records. I will admit that they've gotten much better at playing live. Check out the 2008 performances for context.
Yes, that break down is so godly, gives me chills. These are one of those songs that you might skip when you first get their CD, but will become your favorite when you listen to the entire thing.
its so amazing when you compare this performance to their 2017 summer festival performances of this song. you can just see how much they've grown on the stage and how they enhanced this song sonically live. foals forever!
Incredible. They really do have a way of creating a whole different energy to their songs live, in a way that the studio versions really doesn't do them justice. I'd happily pay for a live album - the extended riffs in the likes of Inhaler live are just outstanding. Saw them in Cork in July.
Emily Walker I’ve seen them 3 times here in chile since 2013, and just once they played black gold when i saw them this year on apr 1st, i couldn’t believe it i couldn’t fit my happiness it was just so epic.
@Flowery27 This song was one of the reasons I come to love them. I think its one of their most diverse pieces of music along with 2 Trees and What Remains.
Truely this song is an hommage to coffee - who doesn't love it? ;) Jokes aside, this is really a great version of the song, the best live one I've heard yet. I really wished this would be available to download somewhere.
that's jimmy's guitar, I make the intro/verse bass out as: E7-D9/E5-A7/E3-E3 there are variations as well (and a different bass line in the chorus/breakdown), such a good song!
@slappkuken this kind of music can't be too rehearsed and prepared for it's like "in this moment" kind of music which makes it so special even though it doesn't seem perfect these guys put feeling into it unlike many new singers do these days. Foals forever ^_^
glad there is still people out there that still enjoys this "foals", not the hard rock commercial stuff they are doing now, which is not bad, I'm just not into it
@@koanfilms_ I liked his last two albums, the first part (for me) one of his best albums. But I agree with you, these songs and if the vibes of TLF are the best of them. I would have liked to listen to this song live or whats remains (my favorite of them)
buenisima banda, la acabo de escuchar por primera vez hace 4 dias escuche "Inhaler" y me gusto bastante y empece a escuchar las demas canciones desde ese dia solo he pasado escuchando Foals "red socks pugie" "electric bloom" "spanish sahara" y otras, en especial ESTAA. es la mejor cancion que he escuchado en mi vida. Son increibles en el escenario tocan tan perfecto esto es ser talentosos y es musica de verdad. En cambio otras bandas en vivo no tocan tan bien, son pocas. Quisiera que mas personas escucharan esto. FOALS y INDIE
Así comencé yo comen e a escuchar mi primera canción my number y de hay escuche las otras canciones y boom ahora es mi anda favorita tienen unas canciones pulidas y excelentes.... Tenemos buenos gustos HAHA escucha late night. Out of the woods balloons Olympic airways es buenísima y todas las de foals
My favourite song off of the album, followed by 2 trees/spanish sahara. But UH! I love the math rock they and radiohead use. The build up is also beautiful too, if I were coming up on something, this would be perfect to listen to :)
@skip2mylou05 Jack Bevan is probably the best drummer in the world. Such a creative genius would get bored playing the same beat night after night which is why he improvises around the beats on a regular basis.
@inspiringlentil Yeah it's such a shame! I've seen pretty much every song from Total Life Forever live except this which is one of my favourites (especially this version!) and possibly This Orient unless they played it at O2 Academy Oxford. I think they did but my friend doesn't so if anyone knows... haha
@skip2mylou05 Jack Bevan is intuitive and has a good groove but he is by no means the best in the world. But I don't think the keys player is playing the cowbell because jack can't at the same time as playing the rest of the drums, I simply think the keys player had not much else to do in that part of the song so no use just standing around playing two chords over and over - why not play the cowbell as well. And travis barker? chad smith? they are competent. Nothing more can be said about them.
i would kill just to go back in time to a total life forever era foals concert
Zóra Vass Or at least holy fire era concert, I mean because of Prelude
I saw them back then, really weird it wasn't sold out then. I was really lucky that they played this as well! They haven't played Black Gold much since.
Been seeing them live since 2008, those were the best days.

saw them live last week for the very first time at off festival, couldnt relate more!!!
I finally get to listen to this live in Mexico City with Walter in the band again. Spiritual experience! 💙💙💙
No tienes idea de cómo te envidio 😭😭 anhelo escucharlos en vivo, y más está canción
Yes, that break down is so godly, gives me chills. These are one of those songs that you might skip when you first get their CD, but will become your favorite when you listen to the entire thing.
Never skipped this one. One of the best off the album. I could listen from blue blood to Spanish Sahara forever
That’s me now 😅 legendary track!!!!
I would do literally anything to hear this live once holy shit ttt
Mixing their vocals together makes it such a powerful mid--> ending to the song 🤩
its so amazing when you compare this performance to their 2017 summer festival performances of this song. you can just see how much they've grown on the stage and how they enhanced this song sonically live. foals forever!
All time favorite Foals song
Got 'the future is not what it used to be' tattooed on my neck, such a good song. The breakdown here is so good I could listen to it over and over!
Hahaha, tattoos are cringe and gay.

my favourite song by them and it's basically never played live D: so thanks for the upload
This and the title track are my two favourite off the album.
Scott Lyman At least you get to see TLF live!
Emily W it's my favorite too, y really want to see them and hear this song in chile :(
I know I’m late but I think they added this song recently to their set list this year
Emily Walker I’ve seen them 3 times here in chile since 2013, and just once they played black gold when i saw them this year on apr 1st, i couldn’t believe it i couldn’t fit my happiness it was just so epic.
5:08 just superb.
2019 y esta aun es y sera de las mejores rolas de FOALS
This song was so beautifully put together
i think Foals is one of these bands wich doesn't need to be a virtuous, they are so original and play so strange and it's the charm of the band :D !!!
They actually did the chant at the bridge. So good.
Top of world. Bottom of the ocean.
Holy shit Bevan
I hung out with Yannis at a bar in my city, hes really nice! I told him I love this song
Best album
oh god i'm floating
@Flowery27 This song was one of the reasons I come to love them. I think its one of their most diverse pieces of music along with 2 Trees and What Remains.
after glow has a sick bassline too
holy crap this is freaking amazing!!!!
I recently got a Foals tattoo - it's videos like this that remind me why I got it.
Black Gold is such an uderrated song, it's just beautiful. 3:38 onwards gets me every time.
Holy shit....this is just one of those performances where to can decide whether or not you like it, but no-one can deny it's incredible.
All songs of Foals are brillant but this one is really amazing !!
3:51 😭😭😭😭
Stunning. Watched it 204.285 times.
Absolutely perfect! The best song from this album! Mint band!

the most massive foals song.
2019?
2019... L'année où Foals à sorti un album raté 🤮

the live version has such a chill vibe! the "reggae" beginning.. :D
such a good band, they've really upped their game

How is Jack so perfect? 😵

@mauricioasfurtado du CARAaaaalhoOO!
yannis`s voice is so emotional i love it..*-*
They should perform this live more often!
this is just fucking fantastic!
3:25
Haha Walters facials at 0.42 are so great.
Epic!
@ParanoidAndroid96 Ah nice, im seeing them at brixton, can't wait!
@skip2mylou05 Jack Bevan is probably the best drummer in the world. Such a creative genius would get bored playing the same beat night after night which is why he improvises around the beats on a regular basis.
This song is even better now that Yannis’ voice has matured lol
fucking great song.

@zunzu15 Because it's Foals, you know it's going to be fucking awesome! :)
wow edwin!
@tibeditom thanks man...
this album has such an influence from the police and i love it
the most schizophrenic shoegazy side of foals that I come to always love
Fucking awesome, as we say in portuguese " Do caralho!"
foalsFOALSfoalsFOALS
the future is not what it seems

@TheChromeo123 Top of the world bottom of the ocean :)
Hello fellow hipsters!
What key is this song in?
@ParanoidAndroid96 brixton?
Is it me or are the band very tall
Margarita Cruz I think it's the camera as well.
Yannis short jokes are my favorite
The Broccolini Industry lol well I was looking at jimmy and Walter I wasn't sure if it was the camera he dwarfs his amp

Yannis sounds a lot like Robert Smith in this sesh
@omnomablerobbie Or Justin Bieber
B I think :P
