I've spent fifty years working in Rock radio. I've watched the bastardization and commercialization of a music genre that used to lead and inspire, motivate and uplift. So much lost. And now. This Band. I now reside in a small third world country called Wyoming. I play this band's music daily. Sometimes very loud. The imagery is overwhelming. The musicianship cuts like a hand made knife, to the quick. And the songs wind through my heart like a river with many bends. Dear Please. Let me see this Band live before I die.

[someoneiknow]

Imagine how dangerous it is playing fire like this on a piece of ice.

[johnbrasher]

My wife played this video for me the night we met on a blind date. We were both divorced and giving love one more chance. It was freezing cold. We married on the spot over a year later. This is our song and KALEO is our band.

[goodbyemr.anderson]

I remember getting divorced, lost my house, slipped into a depression, drank excessively. Found this band, listened to their music particulaly this song on my friends couch one night. Got the strenght to keep my job, gather my briken life and rebuild it like a fucking man. 4 years later i have my dream house and three dogs. Hahaha.
Peace and love to you all. 😊

[Michael-ghtj]

Probably the only band to ever play live on a chunk of ice

[virginiabluebell]

The voice control on this man is mind blowing. Pure raw talent

Lyrics:
It weighs heavier on one's heart
I could tell right from the start that sweet ones are hard to come across
Well, there is more than meets the eye
Heart like yours is rare to find
Someone else's gain will be my loss

Whoa, whoa, oh, oh
Oh whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, oh
Hey, hey

Well, little things that make you smile
Dancing barefoot in the dark
If only I had strength to change your mind
Oh, for what you need
You will not see
Choose your words before you speak
Can you see that all you've got is time?

Whoa, now
Save yourself
Oh, you save yourself
Oh darling, save yourself for someone else
Yeah, save yourself
Oh darling, save yourself
Oh, won't you save yourself from someone else?

Whoa
Don't give in to their feelings
Don't give in darkness and faith
You should be safe, yeah, with someone else

Tell your secrets to the night
You do yours and I do mine
So we won't have to keep them all inside
Oh, for one so pure
Count these off
Let your feelings take control
Hold on to the world that he's begging for

Whoa, now
Save yourself
Oh, won't you save yourself?
Go on and save yourself for someone else
Yes darling, save yourself
Oh, won't you save yourself?
Go on and save yourself for someone else

Whoa, are you going to break?
Are you going to break?
Whoa, aren't you going to take me?
Yeah, are you going to break?
Oh, are you going to break?
Oh, are you going to break?
Whoa, what's it going to take?
Yeah, are you going to break?
Are you going to break?
Are you going to break?
Are you going to break?

**couldn't find the lyrics in comments and I always have to read the words as I listen, to inflict maximum sadness inside. Figured maybe someone else out there may do the same so here you are.🙂

[Digital_Deity]

JJ: “Are you gonna break?”
Iceberg: “Maybe..”

[GillianDeVaal]

is it selfish that I don't want them to get too mainstream? their talent is so raw and their sound is so special. I don't want radio stations to soil that 10 times a day. beautiful video though

[zolika]

I've found this piece of music when I was at the lowest point in my life.

Came back after a year and something to thank these guys for expressing feelings I could not with their music.

Thanks.

[jamieingersoll]

I suffer from severe anxiety and PTSD and I've been searching for so long trying to find something to help me calm myself. I finally found this band and I honestly can't explain how calming this band is for me. ❤️

[thesilentmajority]

For some reason... this song inspired me to get sober. 6 months strong now and when I get the temptation I resort back to this fantastic inspirational song. Thank you KALEO!

[saraj.]

The song itself is already stunning, but hearing it as you watch the creators perform on an actual iceberg, completely changes everything. The aesthetic is so serene and otherworldly. Kaleo- an absolute legend.

[jamesjblackbird]

-"Well guys, guess what! I booked us a gig!"
- "Cool...where?"
-"...."

[ApeironSound]

I really don't know how often I've listened to this version within the last months.
To me, this song, this video and the scenery is one of the best combinations I've ever encountered.
I love everything about it, thank you Kaleo. 🖤

[TheChimkenBrothers]

The fact that this LIVE version sounds just like the studio version is blowing my mind. Freaking incredible band.

[ziggamaras]

next step, Kaleo "LIVE from Mars"

[_missdemy_]

Julius vocals are the best thing i've ever heard ... Keep on being amazing you guys!

[paulodomingos]

Whenever I hear that song, I'm happy and sad at the same time. It's a hard feeling to explain, but in the end I feel relieved, as if I took a weight out of my soul.
I get lost in thoughts, always imagining myself in different places. Sometimes I imagine myself on a highway, aimlessly, starry skies and me there, in this big world.
Or else sitting, older, thinking about everything that's happened in my life, with a coffee in my hand on a winter afternoon.

[kirstenlogan]

It weighs heavier on one's heart
I could tell right from the start that sweet ones are hard to come across
Well there is more than meets the eye
A heart like yours is rare to find
Someone else's gain will be my loss
Woah, woah, oh oh
Oh woah, woah
Woah woah oh
Hey hey
Well little things that make you smile
Dancing barefoot in the dark
If only I had strength to change your mind
Oh for what you need
You will not see
Choose your words before you speak
Can you see that all you've got is time?
Woah now
Save yourself
Oh you save yourself
Oh darling save yourself for someone else
Yeah, save yourself
Oh darling save yourself
Oh won't you save yourself from someone else
Woah
Don't give in to their feelings
Don't give in darkness and faith
You should be safe, yeah, with someone else
Tell your secrets to the night
You do yours and I do mine
So we won't have to keep them all inside
Oh, for one so pure
Count these off
Let your feelings take control
Hold on to the world that he's begging for
Woah now
Save yourself
Oh won't you save yourself
Go on and save yourself for someone else
Yes darling save yourself
Oh won't you save yourself
Go on and save yourself for someone else
Woah are you going to break?
Are you going to break?
Woah aren't you going to take me?
Yeah are you going to break?
Are you going to break?
Are you going to break?
Woah what's it going to take?
Yeah, are you going to break?
Are you going to break?
Are you going to break?
Are you going to break?
