Calexico - He Was Upstairs Lyrics
Near the woodpile
Before the rain
Where he last saw the snake
With teeth clenched
Lover's changed hands
An axe within reach
And a distant stare that weaves
Through the grass and waits

Calexico He Was Upstairs Comments
i can't avoid thinking of breaking bad vibes. ahhh such a good moments
Cool !!
nobody:
iron & wine: by the way i've been here 3 times
Joey and John and Jacob on the Tiny Desk. How overdue is that.
Rob Berger, sweet. Still remember when he was playing with the Old Joe Clarks. Crazyness.
First time listening to these songs and now launching a full-scale investigation. Incredibly beautiful sound.
いつ聴いても素晴らしい。
山の上におうちを建てたお父さんの歌、ほとんど毎朝聴いてます。
夜中の太陽は、泣けるほど詩的で、人生って悪くないなぁと思えます。
素晴らしい楽曲に、心からのありがとうを申し上げます。
Just saw them in Los Angeles and I was a stunningly good show.
He Lays in rhe reins... So cool...
Mel Gibson on the drums
Father mountain is my fav song on the album. He lays in reins is one of my fav songs ever. That whole EP is incredible.
@8:44 he lays in the reins
Just seen them on tour. The music is near perfect.
I love them all!
I love Iron and Wine but I can't get into Calexico
Start with two silver trees and check out the album it's on. Good intro.
love this. love U cousin joey
Well done 👍
He Lays in the Reins, what a beautiful version!
The finest Alt. Country ever, joining Wilco, Bright Eyes etc. thanx NPR for making this possible.
Still no passing afternoon! Tiny desk fans remember, Sam... 😉
I like that shot with John C. on drums and isn't that a Ringo bobble-head behind him?
nobody can convince me that that is not tommy chong
Omfg. He Lays in the Reins is one of my favorite songs ever and I was so excited to see this posted after so many many years. I loved the way the Spanish part is sung here although I have spent a decade singing along to it in operatic baritone. XD
Love you guys. This will always be one of my favorite collabs
Love it.
anybody know what model Taylor sam's playin?
Older Taylor 714ce’s. They used to come with Cedar tops, rosewood back and sides. Current models come with spruce tops. The cedar is fantastic for finger picking.
Beautiful 👏👏👏
The best touring act out there, right now.
Who can possibly dislike this?
Oh sure, you guys would two of the songs I do in my set.
you can hear them,
so refined,
all those years of exchanges,
it really is very cohesive,
like the fingers of both hands interlocked.
Respect to anyone who can play trumpet and shaker at the same time
yeah! that was really impressive...his voice is no better than the others on the band and his trumpet could be a little more crisp
TFW when you drum with a size 12 Fan Paintbrush but also might retouch the Mona Lisa later.
Spray tan?
Is that Prince William on the keys? ahahahahhahahahh
YES!!!!! They are back together again! Loved in the Reins guys! Sounds beautiful for sure!
Hey what do y'all think happened to the top side of the Taylor guitar? It looks like the bracing was done poorly, or it's been in the heat a lot?
Phenomenal performance!!!
My man on the piano hopping over to the steel guitar there... I think that may be my favorite sound in the universe.
I love Sam his music is so relaxing to just fall asleep and dream too
*Beautiful* ❤❤❤
wow 3 times. Is there anyone else who has had a repeat visit to NPR tiny desk?
The band sounds like a cd. Perfect mix.
The lead singer looks like a fake man
Yall should try and get clare torry on here
Get logic on here pls !!!!
great way to get psyched up for seeing them on tour this fall! I first heard of both bands through their past collaboration, and then enjoyed them separately, so it's nice to see them together again. Glad to see Sebastian Steinberg in there now too!
The first time I've watched this i was convinced it was Tommy Chong playng on the right
Sebastian Steinberg
Hey Tiny Desk., i'd like to see something like this too, in your tiny office. What do you say? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Lys2SXUA5Q
Sir, I love your music, but I need you to urgently shave that beard.
Dude can play trumpet but he can't sing so good.
Fuck calexico, this shit sucks.
"Gentillet" ;-)
fantastic stuff
IRON AND WINE IRON AND WINE IRON AND WINE
You should invite Hillsong Worship
YOU DEFINILY MUST DO A VIDEO WITH "HERENCIA DE TIMBIQUI" FROM COLOMBIA!!!!! i hope u will do it ! Latin people like 4 see the guys of Herencia de Timbiqui
Rich Brian pleasee
im loving them together
I thought the singer was rodrigo amarante
Joey!! Glad to see you got your guitar fixed.
This is all well and good, but do you ever plan on posting the Lizzo tiny desk concert?
That "In The Reins" EP he's referring to is one of my all-time favorite Iron & Wine recordings. It stands with the best of Sam's solo work in my opinion. Highly recommended.
We need post malone on here
Amazing!!
The best!!!!
Thanks NPR ❤
Invite The White Buffalo too! Great concert, by the way.
♥️♥️♥️♥️
This Is great
Ah- takes me back 10 years or so...
Yooo some of them are from Calexico... that's my town....
Nathan Hernanadez me 2!!!!
its rare for me to press the like button right after I press play
Coffee, family sleeping-thank you
Isn't this the 3rd time Sam has been on Tiny Desk?
I'M SCREAMING NPR THANK YOU
So good !!!😍😍😍😍
That was beautiful, thanks for sharing :) made my day
Esse tipo de som que a juventude deveria valorizar.
Muito bm very god!
DUDE SO AMAZING
just a comment: WOW!
Calexico is one of the most underrated bands out there, kudos to NPR!
They really are. I discovered them through Iron and Wine years ago, and I've actually grown to like them more than Iron and Wine (no disrespect to Sam, I still love I&W). I work a lot of freelance video editing and graphic design, and they've been my go-to for background music while on the job. Without fail my producer or client asks about them every single time, and by the end of the gig they've got their tunes on their own phone. There's just something about them.
Love NPR!! I would love to see Mimicking Birds on here some day!
@NPR
VULFPECK on Tiny Desk is long overdue
SO. IS. HIATUS KAIYOTE
THIS RIGHT HERE.
Hey NPR Music, why isn't Lizzo's tiny desk concert on your channel??
Edit: it's posted and worth the wait 😍
check again
Anyone make a Prince Harry the piano player joke yet? But for real. This soothes my soul.
Am I the only who hit like w/o even listening?? :)
This is the loudest I've ever heard Mr. Whispers sing.
music is youth
IM SO HAPPY!!!!
Sam has a way of turning everything to gold even if maybe these guys already was there and I love the grey he's getting in his beard.
This is beautiful but when are we getting the Carly Rae Jepsen tiny desk concert ? :(

Country ro-o-o-o-ad, take me ho-o-o-o-me...

I would love seeing Bon Iver in these magic sessions
The bass is out of tune!
sam!!!!!
