This song makes me feel like i'm flowing

"The Plug"


Didn't mean to tell you,
But I guess you got to know.
Didn't mean to tell you
But I guess you got to know...

Didn't mean to tell you
But I guess you got to know.
Didn't mean to tell you
But I guess you got to know.

Stole me away from your backdoor,
Brought me down with shame,
But you'll never bare my name,
But I guess you got to know...

Didn't mean to tell you
But I guess you got to know.
Didn't mean to tell you
But I guess you got to know.

Ahhh Bonobo with that soul bending music as per usual!!!

the quality is bad.

Yes, I know. I'm sorry for that. Uploaded 10 years ago... This was the best I could do...

wow man this shit is great

Surrealist...sweet and low...dark and lovely...thanks for the round trip, brings tears and kisses to me...RIGHT ON FOR THE DARKNESS!!!!!

👌👁🔥🔺🔴⭐

Tonight I was walking through a remote village in Sapa, Vietnam and this song was playing inside a shack called the Color Bar. I immediately recognized it and thought I'd come here to share with everyone how neat I thought that was.

i know this was posted three years ago, but i love this. its so cool how music can connect people from completely different places.

It's always great to catch people listening to exciting music in out-of-the-way places. Some people are undeterred.

Bonobo you sexy bitch

Namaste!
Superduper! I'm digging it! :)
You can find more songs like this one on my channel.

All the best,

Thank you for "the visit and invite". All the best to you, too! :)

Didn't mean to tell you,
But I guess you've got to know

Stole me away from your backdoor
Brought me down with shame

But you'll never ??
But I guess you've got to know

it's a lot clearer if you listen to it on cd or vinyl

Didn't mean to tell you, but I guess you got to me... Stole them away from your backdoor...Broke me down with shame.

This kind of explainable, unrealistic, mesmerizing  music should not exist on this planet.!! it is too much to take.. i don't know what to do with life anymore after listening to this.!! respects.!!

Well said. But it lets us learn to love life and ourselves in its imperfecction :) And this love is probably the strongest thing there is.

Respect!

awake in heaven

I can't find my glasses. I've searched all throughout the house. I even went back to the car to look for them.
They seem to be gone. I must find them or else I can't see.
They are not just any glasses.  When you look through them you can see the world more clearly.
Possibilities which have previously been invisible start to become obvious.
I gotta get in the car. Drive down that long road through the woods until I finally arrive at the beach only like two people know about.
I sit in the sand and stare at the horizon. When the boat is finished I shall travel that ocean and find her..

What's the original song on 1:10 ?! That saxophone makes this song perfect.

I wanna know this, too. It's somewhere from my childhood and so familiar my friend and I both recognize it but can't put a finger on it.

this has become an anthem for me, like I go through everyday life ..subconsciously hearing this linger into ears

although it is difficult to identify with certainty what is your favorite song, for 4 years now, this song has been mine. and it will remain for several years, if it is not for the rest of my life. bonobo is a Genius. 

the time you've been listening to it doesnt matter at all, im sure we are feeling the same for this song: i remember those incomprehensible tears on the first times i heard it, and i feel like still today i could cry, just by closing my eyes and singing it. this is not happiness or sorrow or anything descriptible whit words, just this is what this song makes me feel, every cell from my hair to my feet send me the message: this is the one, dude. and make cry. im not ashamed by this point, cause in my opinion this feeling is so strong n huge n imperious, it would litteraly  hurt to keep it inside when it occurs. and this feeling doesnt disappear, even after hearing more than 500 times.  and will remain the same in 500 listens more  (i guess)

LIVE SESSION IT'S SO MUCH BETTER

Thank you! Didn't know that...
Very nice.

Ansley Dunbar - Double Lovin'

Sure, it's called Double Lovin'.

do you know the song name the lyrics are from?

Does anyone know where the violin sample is from ?

you made my day XD

Wow, the samples are from the little known (but really great) blues/soul band "The Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation.

That's really cool.

I don't think they are little known, but I agree they're good :D

you have so amazing artists in Greece similar to Bonobo (feel free to check out Mononome, Somehowart, Kill Emil, Apanemic, GDaddy, Ntlisten, Daidalosone...)

I can hear this song playing at the beginning of GTA 5

Animal magic...

Ive been looking for that sick tune off that nokia advert since about 2002

^.^ COLD SONG ^.^

Down tempo and trip hop

and this goes for all Bonobo's masterpieces :)

Bonobo style is Down-tempo, or something like that I think.

Yeah, this could be considered trip-hop, but I'd say it's more downbeat electronic music. They're pretty similar, anyhow.

an amazing piece of real art!! this is trip-hop right? or just instrumental?

Simply Amazing!

Infinite eargasms

I've been looking for a clean pair of socks since 2004!

absolutely amazing

Χαλαρωτικο :)

Come on again to Greece we need you.Your music is the best Trip

i swear this sounds a tiny bit like "the dragon-born comes" from skyrim!

pull it

My favorite song for 4 years I have never had a favorite song longer this is it.

Μάλλον σπίτι, γιατί στα μαγαζιά δεν παίζουν τέτοιες μουσικές.... Χαίρομαι όμως, που υπάρχουν... κι ας δεν τους γνωρίζω :)
Να περνάς όμορφα!

pou einai oloi autoi oi ellines pou xeroun apo tetoia mousiki?? ego giati panta

Tried to reply with no words, but would not let me.
Favourite track I think.

All the stars in this tiny universe could never compare to the love I have for you my sweet angel of light and love.....

Love you Stephanie miss your beautiful face wish you were here ........

This so soothin..Good smoke backdrop.

i can't just fucking understand, how cheap artists(if they are artist at all) like ashanti gets 21million views...and bonobo having dislikes.....wtf!!!! guess, people hav really lost their taste in true music. hail bonobo.

I recently started painting, and this is really reflaxing, inspiring music to listen to while you paint, or do any art at all. Thank you Bonobo :)

"Haters gonna hate.Bonobo 's gonna bonate!" -Anonymous

WOW , I can just lay down on my bed and let this track just play while thinking of how beautiful life is! Bonobo for president !

this is.....amazing.

fucking hell i never had those annoying advertisements before the video started playing. suddenly they pop up at a lot of clips.. bye bye playing lists. wtf how hiddeous

This song makes me want to go on a road trip, across the country.

man, this might just be my personal favorite song of all time... So beautiful and emotional, exactly like other people said in their comments. Amazing <33

@shahmoro Yes, it is sad.

@smdanish2010 I'm glad it made you happy : ) Enjoy!

I have been searching for this since 2006. So glad finally found it!

@MrSimpleFuc right? me too.

"Didn't mean to tell you... But I guess you got to know..." Dial M for... MAGIC :)

music is a better place since he showed up. respect.

@MrSimpleFuc : )

@AgnostosStratioths Ελληνίδα κιόλας : ) Thanks, aderfe!

@mindfish21 holy shit!

@otnomnoraa the quality is overwhelmed by the awesomeness, methinks the lady doth protest too much

@AgnostosStratioths Να΄σαι καλά! : )

@RetroSpecsify lol, beautiful, yes.

I've named my parrot Bonobo about three years ago, out of respect for this man and what he does with sounds. I like to ride my bycicle while listening to his creations and when i do a smile comes to my face without my knoledge.
Thank you Bonobo!

10 years old music, but best today, best forever

5 people are not at peace.

@RUDIE110 ~~~~ thank you, Rudie : ) ~~~~~~~

@dolphinoela Thank you, I also greet yours- it's definately all about tuning in.
Once you do tune in, it brings out beauty in any situation.

@lollipops172 lollipops, keep planting your radishes

@RUDIE110 you are the light of my life Rudie i love your mind and soul

@vahagnzakaryan ur not alone on that... Keep ur head up n tha music playin... lifes a bitch but atleast bonobo makes it bearable. Love.

Going through the hardest part of my life, this is keeping me alive...... thank you Bonobo...

@RetroSpecsify yup, if you could only spell BEAUTIFUL, the we would be in agreement.

@freedom0is0free was right in front of the drummer for that show, words cannot begin to describe! cheers

@RAHdub1 So many people feel the exact same way... That's what happens when you do not follow the flock.. Bonobo is pure magic; if you are in Seattle on the 30th of Nov 2010, you should be at the Showbox.

this is emotionally exquisite

@RAHdub1 this isnt party music man. listen to this in a relaxed envrioment.

@RetroSpecsify true : )

I've really gotten into this artist a lot as of late...I catch them on the Buzzoutroom every now and then, on Groove Salad too. This is one song that moves me much like it does others here commenting. BTW - Simon' new album "Black Sands" is a great find too! Check it out. ~Thank You Senor for the wonderful music!

@RUDIE110 You've expressed the essence of Bonobo's art so beautifully... I greet your intelligence...

Bonobo you have not only summed up my soul but refreshed my inner self as well as hundreds of beautiful human beings out there that have felt the emotions through your art. Thank you- you beautiful, intelligent person.

I wish more people could appreciate this kind of stuff. This is what I want to jam to at parties.

Bonobo do us a favor. NEVER STOP MAKING MUSIC. your stuff is one of the best

so great! painting late at night while blasting this .... it makes me be more creative for some reason. i envy bonobo, why couldn't i come up with this ?? guess we cant have it all in this life time huh? - el bocho

@trimm2 i couldn't agree more
