Fat Freddys drop is actually the name of a famous LSD in NZ. That's where the name comes from

What I heard, the name is a reference to one of the characters (which is called "fat freddys cat") from a 1970s comic book: The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers, written by gilbert shelton. Then, they changed "cat" for "drop" for the reason that you surely imagine ;)

shut up and take my money

Such a great song 🤙can really feel as this song is about anyone and about everybody

I sit and watch you from my window, Giving yourself away, You've been working hard all day I see the ground catch at your feet, I see the sweet signs of defeat, Like you're beaten but you feel no pain And then you turn to me instinctively, Checking if you're alone, Like a reflex from my guilty mind I fall away into the background, Like a shadow on the wall, To leave you with your peace of mind I watch from my window up high, All alone in this room, So many people go the same way, I think it's time that I changed my view Like a king in his lonely kingdom, A ruler who had no rules Ooh, Oh I got nothing left to lose, I think it is time that I changed my view Why did you choose my way? Why did you come down this lonely street? Was it to meet me? Was it to tango? Well the roots they sound so sweet Sweeter than gold, Sweeter than fame, Sweeter than honey Won't power the money Walking along this lonely street, Someone I'd like to meet, Someone I'd like to know, As a kindred soul oh so spiritual the sound ran down like waterfalls Running away never the same Changing my view of you everyday ohhh [I watch from my window up high, All alone in this room, So many people go the same way, I think it's time that I changed my views Like a king in his lonely kingdom, A ruler who had no rules, Ooh Oh I got nothing got left to lose, I think it?s time that I changed my views] (x5)

That change in the music at around 3mins in is ace

just great band thx for the share ;)

awesome version!!!

My all time favorite

Good life remembers, what else, remembers eternal Summers night

the roots, they sound so sweet

wow. this is the best thing ive heard amazing

Otro despertar...vibra el corazon..sonidos que se expanden y las almas brotan

This is honestly the best band I have heard in some time! We need them to come to the US.. And if they don't soon, I am going on Fat Freddy's Drop tour in Europe, across New Zealand... something...

Best Music ever

Spain coming back to me, when somebody knew my heart

can't decide whether this or the album version is better... leaning towards the album version myself, when it builds up and then breaks into "I wanna love I don't wanna fight yeah yeah...". Just awesome.
