Bombay Bicycle Club - Meditate (Live Performance) | Vevo Studio Performance
Bombay Bicycle Club - Meditate. An exclusive live performance for Vevo.
From the jump, Bombay Bicycle Club had an uncanny ability to package complex melodies into pristine indie rock parcels. “Always Like This,” the fan favorite from their mostly rockin’ but sometimes folky 2009 debut album, is a lesson in counterpoint from bassist Ed Nash and guitarist Jamie MacColl. On next year’s acoustic-leaning “Flaws” album, the beautifully simple “Dust on The Ground” is followed by “Ivy & Gold,” a sparkling jig that makes you want to pick up your own guitar and try to nail its intricate melody. The 2000s indie golden era was typified by ambitious songwriting, and the London quartet exemplified it with songs that were both angular and angsty, yet lush and downright pretty. It all came together on ‘A Different Kind Of Fix,’ where vocalist/guitarist Jack Steadman’s experimental pastiches of harmonies, falsettos, samples, and synths still left space for fantastic bass and guitar lines; see: “Lights Out, Words Gone” and “Shuffle.” More than a decade removed from that album, they’re strong as ever. 2020’s shifty, crunchy, and hypnotic “Eat, Sleep, Wake (Nothing But You)” boasts more than 60 million Spotify streams. We had a blast capturing four tracks from their sixth studio album ‘My Big Day.’ On this project they invited some friends: Damon Albarn, Nilufer Yanya, Jay Som, Chaka Khan (!!!) and Holly Humberstone. But in our studio, it was the core four doing what they do best: creating space for each member, trading riffs, enchanting listeners.

This track blew me away when I listened to the album. Side B is killer with this, the interlude and heaven back to back. Not to mention the closers. Whole album slaps of course but the energy on this is killer

My comment may be littered with errors but the crescendo as they move up the scale on the interlude. What a buzz.

the production on this is INSANE it sounds better than the album hahah
This song reminds me of the songs from the debut album 'I Had The Blues But I Shook It Off'. Bloody love this band, and followed them since that first album.

I totally agree. Have been insanely consistantly amazing on every album
If there’s a dimension out there where bands this great get the recognition they deserve please take me there! This is perfection.
The combo bombay and yanya.... Out of this world❤
Ed with the red rubber strap locks from a Grolsch bottle. Song is killer, one of the best on the album.
This is absolutely OUTRAGEOUS. What a band.
These videos go outrageously hard. And with Nilufer ??? Crazy.
What a unique band they are, just pure magic!!!
Was already a fan of Nilüfer but their vocals mesh so well. Gotta be my favourite from the album!! Loved this track in Cov, hope to hear it again in Brum!!
Just saw them perform at First Avenue in Minneapolis. They rocked this song. One of my favorites.
Favorite band for the last 15 years! Keep up the good work. How about this new girl? She's awesome and very musical
Absolute beast on a cracking album. Bravo.
When the horns just stroll on in!! Top notch performance
favourite track from the album
I know I already commented praise for this track but DAMN does it HIT!
Jesus Christ!! This is utter perfection. Just sublime! ❤
I love the fact they're like the best bands in music has ever been in that they have their own distinct sound yet are able to make so many different incredible songs out the same sound and style, all the greats you can hear their sound and instantly go that's .... and these are the same - play me 45 seconds of this with no words and I'd tell you that's BBC
Seeing you guys tomorrow cannot contain my excitement!!!!!!!
Stopped me in my tracks when I first heard this ,proper
Thank god for this band!
Unreal tune ❤
My two favorite artists! ❤
when the sax's come out holyyyyy fire
Absolutely sublime as always bombay 🫡 unreal
Hope you can make it back to the states, COVID ruined my opportunity to catch you live.
This is pure art! Thank you for your music.
Uhullll love BBC
Favourite song of 2023
I never stand, I never wait I never walk, I levitate They're punching like a heavyweight I meditate, and t-t-t-t-t-t-take it Follow your words right through when you go Nobody else can do what you know Anything that you lose You know all of us are counting too Can you see, boy? You know out there they will cut your teeth out I know what they want They're coming out Don't say too much Don't wake them up Just hold your pride They play too rough Can you see, boy? You know out there they will cut your teeth out I know what they want They're coming out I never stand, I never wait I never walk, I levitate They're punching like a heavyweight I meditate, and t-t-t-t-t-t-take it T-t-t-t-take it T-t-t-t-take it T-t-t-t-take it, take it Follow the road's light to where we go Nobody else can do what you know Anything that you do You won't feel no pain, no suffering too Can you see, boy? You know out there they will cut your teeth out I know what they want They're coming out [Instrumental Break] I never stand, I never wait I never walk, I levitate They're punching like a heavyweight Well, that's a pain that I can take I never stand, I never wait I never walk, I levitate They're punching like a heavyweight Well, that's a pain that I can take I never stand, I never wait I never walk, I levitate They're punching like a heavyweight Well, that's a pain that I can take I never stand, I never wait I never walk, I levitate They're punching like a heavyweight Well, that's a pain that I can take
That snare sound is amazing
This was so good live at Portsmouth! 😍 can’t stop listening
A Different Kind of Fix all over again, class
Sick tune got it on repeat 😅
Best song on the album for me is between this and Turn the World On
U guys are going to be huge!! Great band. Im impressed. Hugs from Brazil!!
When the sex whistles casually walk in🎷🎷
Just saw this today and i feel pity for the ears who haven't discover nor heard this band💙
Refreshing to hear you guys everytime, new sounds and how it all comes together so well!
An unexpected combo adding in Nilufer Yanya, but man it works so well! If you haven't checked out her latest album do yourself the favour, slaps just as hard as the latest Bombay Bicycle Club album!

A cheesy anime or godzilla-type monster or pokemon battle would be a fun music video for this song.
Amazing song, really odd vocal mixing on this tho 😕
