The quiet bridge of this song sometimes brings me to tears

[lisathomas]

"she makes the sound the sea makes, knee-deep in the north" LOVE the way they sing this at the end :)

[johannesnicolaas]

Every muscle in my body starts to move when I hear this song. It's magic. 

[Irenikashula]

This is like the only live version where they actually sing in the same tones as the official song. Lovely

[wigginwilly]

This isn't normally my type of music.. Listening to classic rock and metal all my life .. BUT, Holy Shit!! These guys kick ass!!

3 24 2018 Hey KEXP & Alt-j, Thanks! for the post. I am a little late to the party...Still, a lovely song & the drummer is especially good (they're all terrific!). Be well to all. v P.S: I first heard this song as an advert to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), & was able to find them here...

Gwil's little smile at 1:51 is so adorable, by far my favourite part of the video:3

[ShelbyClees]

Gwil's departure makes me sad .. :(  But Alt-j is going to produce a new album, such a good news :)

She maaakes the sound the sound the sea makes to calm me down

[pancon]

Thank you indeed. Such an addictive part.

[GoodbyeGramsci]

I really don't understand the negative comments about this video, I think it sounds incredible!

[mitch]

she makes a sound, the sound she makes, to calm me down!

[sandrokapanadze]

Now dissolve me, two tabs on your tongue
A herd of shepherds to herd the sheep, sleep now my only one
Broken sweethearts, who sleep apart
Both still pine for the other's side spine, spoon as sleep starts
And pulse to pulse, now shush
She makes the sound, the sound the sea makes to calm me down
I am see-through, soap sliver you're so thin
As I begin rubbing lathers up your state worsens on my skin
And gold, fatless finger to lip, one two three four hush
And pulse to pulse, now shush
She makes the sound, the sound the sea makes to calm me down
She makes the sound, the sound the sea makes. I'm tired now
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

She makes the sound the sea makes, knee-deep in the North Sea
She makes the sound the sea makes, knee-deep in the North Sea
She makes the sound the sea makes, knee-deep in the North Sea
She makes the sound the sea makes, knee-deep in the North Sea
She makes the sound the sea makes, knee-deep in the North Sea
She makes the sound the sea makes, knee-deep in the North Sea
She makes the sound the sea makes, knee-deep in the North Sea
She makes the sound the sea makes, knee-deep in the North Sea

[johannesnicolaas]

When I hear this song I want to dance and shout.... Join me, please!

[NaomiMonica]

Thank you Made in Chelsea and Shazam :D

Creo que este es uno de esos casos en los que suena mejor que la versión de álbum.

Anybody know that what that little rift they hit before the drop is
