First Aid Kit - Tiger Mountain Peasant Song Lyrics






Wanderers this morning came by
Where did they go
Graceful in the morning light
To banner fair
To follow you softly
In the cold mountain air

Through the forest
Down to your grave
Where the birds wait
And the tall grasses wave
They do not
know you anymore

More... More... More...

Dear shadow alive and well
How can the body die
You tell me everything
Anything true

In the town one morning I went
Staggering through premonitions of my death
I don't see anybody that dear to me

Dear shadow alive and well
How can the body die
You tell me everything
Anything true

Jesse
I don't know what I have done
I'm turning myself to a demon
I don't know what I have done
I'm turning myself to a demon

First Aid Kit Tiger Mountain Peasant Song Comments
  1. S.... V....

    Love you girls🥰

  2. J.... ....

    It is good to finally get to the beginning. It took a while, but I've been a checkin' in with the sisters these last eight years. And for some reason I thot it might just be time to see what was going on with these two before that first magic moment of discovery. It was them coming out of that good old FM radio of mine and station KEXP. They were playing Emmylou. And I was hooked . . . and now here I am.

  3. F.... G....

    I know this cover for so long now, still coming back from time to time, love it so SO much !

  4. M.... A....

    Still just as incredible, 12 years later <3

  5. P.... H....

    I can never understand how people like Klara could hit the high notes without visible struggle. She done it effortlessly like nothing

  6. S.... B....

    Johanna is two years older but looks younger and less mature than Klara. Weird to see them this young. Saw them a year ago for the Ruins tour and they pranced around the stage tossing their hair around like rockers.

  7. A.... D....

    So fucking lovely and pure.. go get um girls! live that life! < 3

  8. D.... S....

    FAK has come a long way, Klara and Johanna have been a major part of my life for almost a decade now. It is good to hear this again. The perfect 2 part harmony in the woods recorded by a tiny go-pro or iphone or something. But I especially like Johanna's little eye roll at the end, As if she thought it wasn't that good. It was so good. A gift, indeed.

  9. g.... ....

    Crying so hard

  10. A.... H....

    Belle recommandation de YouTube

  11. N.... ....

    I just love the echoes in the end, their voices are just mesmerising!

  18. �.... �....

    A honey for my ears

  19. E.... T....

    I remember when I was 8 or 9 I went to a concert of theirs with my mom but we got a flat tire in the way to L A and we missed the concert... and I cried 😅 but I went to see them sophomore year In high school with her again and we didn't miss it !!! Cant believe I've known their song for about 8 year 🥰

  20. C.... N....

    I discovered this several years ago, and I still think it's the best music video on Youtube.

  21. S.... D....

    Anyone know of any other covers similar to this excellence? I’ve tried over the years to find anything even close to this magnificent without luck. Most YouTube covers are simply not my style.

    S.... D....

    Sabine D. Maloney Try Band of Horses covering “The End’s Not Near”

  22. L.... G....

    I can’t stop watching these two angels harmonize. After watching their other videos, I am stunned by the path their careers have taken over the years since this initial video was done. Amazing. You have a big fan here in America. Well done ladies.

  23. J.... D....

    I remember when this song has 1000 views! I still listen to it all the time.

  24. S.... S....

    True talents

  25. E.... P....

    2:20 Customized long forest reverb

  26. D.... C....

    These 2 will get married some day. You can feel the chemistry.

    D.... C....

    You do know they're sisters right? :D

    D.... C....

    BigDaddyNexus Each to their own. I’m not here to judge. I’m sure they’ll have beautiful children.

  27. W.... Z....

    ... I should visit Sweden.

  28. M.... H....

    First time, wow the girls look so young /& innocent ! especially Johanna

  29. M.... I....

    I remember my dad putting this video on when I was a little kid

  30. D.... ....

    Class act

  31. F.... S....

    Still this song is so pure and precious! Thank you Girls! I am still playing it on the guitar, with ur vocals always in mind 🥰

  32. M.... ....

    I remember when this came out, i was a big Fleet Foxes fan by the time. Great teenage memories, first love stories, all this news adventures you live when you become an adult. It's with happy tears that i watch this in 2019. Love you girls

  33. B.... S....

    fuckin-nobel-prize-went-to
    FIRST FUCKING AID KIT

  34. e.... n....

    Its amazing watching my celebrity crush Johanna, also my birthday mate. You guys rock, I must say you aren't just the first aid kit, but the real treatment.
    Music is really food for the soul

  35. g.... ....

    I am here ....

  36. m.... ....

    Goosebumps and tears

  37. N.... &....

    And the world began to take notice.... such pure talent xxx

  38. R.... ....

    It's great

  39. S.... 2....

    Did u think about it??... You thohahaught about it...

  40. M.... P....

    The girls are contemporary female version of Simon and Garfunkel. They definitely have their beautiful spirit!

  41. A.... D....

    They remind me of my close friend and her older sister

  42. M.... ....

    I wish there was a way to view YT comments by oldest first.

  43. L.... M....

    I love this

  44. G.... C....

    beautiful

  45. Z.... ....

    This is a straight up masterclass.

  46. J.... F....

    I love how the microphone compresses the audio ❤️

    J.... F....

    It also helps that dad is a sound engineer :)

  47. b.... ....

    My sister and I were 13 and 18, respectively, when we first discovered this song. We both had completely different music tastes but we both shared this video with each other, saying “I think you’d like this”. We’ve seen them live, met them (on accident), and bonded together over their music. I love you Miranda. Thanks for being the Klara to my Johanna. Lord knows I can’t hit Klara’s notes.

  48. A.... J....

    Imagine hearing this walking through the forest, I would think I had died and gone to heaven

  49. M.... P....

    At first I was like "dang that 2nd girl sounds like First Aid Kit" and I then I look at the description. "NO WAAAY!". So glad I saw this vid :)

  50. B.... G....

    This makes me tingle

  51. J.... M....

    This was my introduction to First Aid Kit over a decade ago. I love their harmonies more and more with each passing year.

  52. p.... g....

    okay I honestly looked up “cover” and sorted it by upload date. I went back as far as I could just so I could be reminded how pure and simple things used to be. I miss when there wasn’t as much hate in the world. Where we could just love one another. This video is so pure. They both look so happy and it honestly makes me happy but also sad. I love this.

  53. T.... P....

    Beautiful. I love Fleet Foxes.

  54. M.... G....

    https://youtu.be/OVtyv5QXhes So, this is for you First Aid Kit. This is a little gift from us! Ok here we go!

  55. E.... P....

    2019. Still relevant.

  56. B.... ....

    They will be replaced soon, poor girls

  57. L.... o....

    looooove it !

  58. T.... ....

    Their vocals will be a national treasure one day!

  59. A.... D....

  69. D.... L....

    GOOD TO KNOW 619 PEOPLE ARE DEAF! LOLLL

  70. A.... G....

    Forever inspo

  71. W.... Y....

    Before go pros, Sony cams and Vlogging became saturated with have to have microphones, these girls produced a great sound cover video. Sometimes its just about the talent which is obviously in abundance here.

  72. T.... M....

    wow,they are just kids here

  73. A.... H....

    I adore their soft voices so much...

  74. J.... 3....

    Still preaching in 2019

  75. D.... L....

    u guys came to australia and i missed it bc of exams when i was like 16

  76. E.... G....

    Amazing.

  77. S.... D....

    🇹🇷🇹🇷

  78. L.... E....

    Here I am, 11 years after seeing for the first time, tear in the eye and a smile on the face.

  79. M.... M....

    I played this in the woods when we were camping.

  80. H.... S....

    H.... S....

    H.... S....

    H.... S....

  81. J.... E....

    Stillest my soul wept, I dreamt the souring lovely beauty

  82. J.... G....

    10 years. Damn.

  83. R.... J....

    They're Swedish, but they speak English in an American accent, and they sing with an American southern twang.

  84. N.... M....

    Whitches.

  85. N.... K....

    This always gives me an otherworldly feeling. I love when they look off behind them and smile like someone on the path heard them, it's just such a genuine little moment.

  86. P.... ....

    So beautiful...it looks like, feels and sounds like it was recorded late 1960s..I expect to see CSN&Y stroll up from the cabin grom the cover of DeJa vu album.

    P.... ....

    sounds like CSN&Y now that you mention it

  87. D.... L....

    truly magical, i feel blessed. I’ll love these sisters forever

  88. D.... .....

    Beautiful! Love the harmonizing... wish I was there!

  89. �.... K....

    In 2019, and still in my mind, in my heart... listening almost everyday...

    �.... K....

    Özgür Kalender selam değerli insan

  90. X.... D....

    How I know them?

    First I watch rusamilitan concert, then found rusamilitan sang mykonos as a cover. Then I start listening Fleet Foxes, and then First Aid Kit showed up.

    2019 is still a good time for this song. 🤘🤘🤘

  91. t.... o....

    Çok güzel değil mi her şeyiyle

  92. S.... B....

    simplesmente maravilhoso. Fleet Foxes com maestria. parabéns meninas .

  93. L.... F....

    Beautiful girls.

  94. A.... R....

    One of the best covers that I have ever heard. Makes me want to go back in the years and sit with the girls at that exact time.

  95. E.... ....

    The band name its quite fitting since you melted my heart with this ethereal rendition of an otherwise gorgeous masterpiece. I do indeed a need a First Aid Kit, or some medical attention to cope with this stunning cover. Even after a decade after I first heard it it still sends shivers down my spine. This is art folks!

  96. E.... J....

    Listening in March 2019 and wow, just wow!

  97. G.... M....

    Perfection

  98. J.... ....

    Singing with heart; wonderful.
