Fire is Catching (My Hunger Games mix now with liner notes)

New World - DeVotchKa

There’s this place that I know where they take everything slow. You are the one I would take with me. It’s the perfect place to be with a girl like you. If you wanted to we could leave right now, it’s the perfect time. It’s the perfect day we should get away come on let’s go.

Black and White Town - Doves

You should follow me down. There’s no color and no sound in the Black and White Town. I’ve been ten feet underground. In Black and White Town.

No One Would Riot For Less - Bright Eyes

So love me now. Hell is coming. Kiss my mouth. Hell is here.

Sleep, Don’t Weep - Damien Rice

Sleep, don’t weep, my sweet love. My face it’s all wet ‘cause my day was rough. So do what you must do to find yourself. Wear another shoe, or paint my shelf. Those times that I was broke, and you stood strong. I hope I find a place where I feel I belong.

The Frankston Line - Youth Group

I’ll leave you, I won’t leave you. The sea’s so beautiful.

So Sorry - Feist

I’m sorry, two words I always think after you’ve gone when I realize I was acting all wrong. So selfish, two words that could describe, oh actions of mine, when patience is in short supply. We don’t need to say goodbye. We don’t need to fight and cry. Oh we, we could hold each other tight tonight.

No Light, No Light - Florence + The Machine

No light, no light in your bright blue eyes. I never knew daylight could be so violent. A revelation in the light of day. You can’t choose what stays and what fades away. And I’d do anything to make you stay.

Hate - Cat Power

They can give me pills or let me drink my fill. The heart wants to explode far away where nobody knows. Do you believe she said that? Do you believe she said that? I said I hate myself and I want to die.

Night Terror - Laura Marling

I woke up and he was screaming, I’d left him dreaming. I roll over and shake him tightly and whisper If they want you, oh, they’re gonna have to fight me.

The Bagman’s Gambit - The Decemberists

And from my ten floor tenement where once our bodies lay. How I long to hear you say. No, they’ll never catch me now. No, they’ll never catch me. No, they cannot catch me now. We will escape somehow. Somehow.

Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels) - Arcade Fire

And if the snow buries my, my neighborhood. And if my parents are crying, then I’ll dig a tunnel from my window to yours, yeah a tunnel from my window to yours.

Watch Over Me - Bernard Fanning

For every time you sheltered me from harm, you showed me truth, kept me warm. Every time you left me on the street, I found my way, I found my feet. So say you’ll watch over me when I’m in too deep. Tell me you’ll always be there to pull me free.

In Our Bedroom After The War - Stars

Lift your head and look out the window. Stay that way for the rest of the day and watch the time go. Listen! The birds sing! Listen! The bells ring! All the living are dead, and the dead are all living. The war is over and we are beginning…

I hadn’t been able to see this video since 2008 and I am seriously freaking out right now.

Let me tell you a little story.

It is Youth Group’s first performance before The Night Is Ours came out. It was broadcasted live from Australia and I remember having to get up at 5am to watch just the beginning because I had to leave at 6 to go to school. I cried with all the Mexico references  throughout the show (because on the interview they did earlier, they were asked a question I sent wondering if they were ever coming to Mexico, etc. Spoiler alert: they haven’t come…) Oh yeah, I haven’t seen this performance since 2008 because one day, the guys from the website decided you could only watch the video if you were in Australia. Those bastards. But now I accidentally clicked the link (it’s on my chrome bar) and the video started playing. Now I need to find a way to rip the video and/or audio so I can watch this whenever I want, in case they decide to restrict the video again. 

The end.

P.S. Does anyone know how to rip video and/or audio? I need you help please, please, PLEASE. Thank you.

Someone Else’s Dream - Youth Group

Don’t you hate it when they just say hi?
They don’t see the sadness in your eyes.
Oh yeah, let’s dream it down…
You’re having someone elses dream.

i-am-amanda:

But if you had forty lives,

you’d get it right by the thirty-ninth

As it is, all that you can ask,

is all this is will pass.

Youth Group - Start Today Tomorrow


Youth Group to play reunion show in 2012? ›

fuckyeahyouthgroup:

According to The Drums lead singer Jonathan Pierce, Youth Group will be playing a reunion show early next year.

The claim was made during a recent interview with The Doctor on triple jwhile Pierce was heaping praise on new drummer (and former Youth Group band member) Danny Lee Allen.

“I love that boy so much”, Pierce said of his new band mate. 

“He is just lovely and I feel like we lucked out with him. One of the most gracious dudes I’ve ever met, so it’s nice to have him in the pack.”

“He’s in that band Youth Group who I actually hear are doing a reunion show… early next year.”

Youth Group have been on an extended break since 2009 when they said they were “looking forward to having a good slice of time to do other, non Youth Group things with our lives.”

Danny will accompany The Drums to Australia early next year for each leg of the Laneway festival.
