Listening to The Lumineers on Radio Paradise

Reading through quite a few of the comments for this song, it feels like much of the negativity stems from the idea that The Lumineers are using tricks to get people to react to the music. But that's the thing about pretty much all music: a large portion of EVERY SINGLE SONG is trying to get you to react to it. That's the point of music.

Look at it a different way - when you like a particular artist or a particular style of music, oftentimes you barely even notice all of the tropes & hooks that are taking place in the song. Or you may acknowledge them and remark that they work. Then someone else comes along using the same songwriting tricks and the tunes don't hit the same way, and now the manipulation within the music is apparent to you and you dislike the tactic. It's not necessarily that the trope is tired or awful, but that you're aware of the trick before it has a chance to work and you're annoyed that they tried to manipulate you.

When you were a kid, you listened to and probably enjoyed pretty simple music. Maybe you got introduced to more mature stuff through your parents. As you grew older, the tunes got more complicated, more nuanced, more novel. Chances are that you may have grown to a point where new music similar to what you heard as a youth no longer has the pull that it once did. (For some people, that hold never lets go and they don't "evolve" as a listener.) You learn about new & varied styles of music, your knowledge about song construction expands, and your expectations for what you want out of what you listen to grows.

This song by The Lumineers is finely constructed and strongly performed. You may or may not like it, but I doubt RP would have added it to the playlist if it wasn’t well done. It works for a lot of listeners on here and many more in the general populace because it has catchy hooks, interesting lyrics, and a good energy that can sweep you up with it. I love singing along to songs at a concert; I’m that annoying bastard that sings his ass off the entire night and goes home hoarse. I don’t need “hey-oh” portions to get me to participate, but I like this song and a lot of other similar stuff on here. I also love more introspective stuff like Talk Talk or Brahms or Miles Davis or whatever.

If you don’t like this song or other ones similar to it, that’s fine. There may be some aspect to it that doesn’t work for you and the songwriting tropes that work for many other tunes, including ones you probably enjoy, are painfully aware to you as an educated listener. For others, those nooks & tricks are immaterial or are the very things that claim their interest and their enjoyment is completely legitimate.

Abbb sooo lute ehh ly!!!!!!

I believe this sound first originated during the Civil War. The Confederates made this sound when they charged Union positions. Well, at least the musically inclined and "hip" rebels who worked out and had trimmed beards did, anyway. This happened after they ate their avocado toast and drank their craft pour-over coffee for breakfasts. Gen. Lee always insisted they eat healthy breakfasts and besides, the troops attacked better after having caffeine. And then they had craft beer at night, but possibly also hard ciders and seltzers.

A nice song and a great production.

'It's better to feel pain, than nothing at all
The opposite of love is indifference'

I don't know a more depressing - yet painfully relatable - lyric than that.

For those confused about what exactly the "millennial whoop" is, it isn't the stomping and clapping stuff that bands like this do, but rather a vocal pattern, alternating between the fifth and third note of the scale. In this song it appears in the "oh-oh's" and "ooh-ooh's" of the chorus section after "when we were young" and "when we got cold."

I've heard it called the "millennial yell" - but where did it come from? What band invented it?

Mr UbersmartGuy, which anesthetic would you recommend for the pain caused by a broken heart?

In my case, bourbon and a variety of women worked well. Got tired of the transient feeling of that life style ... after 8 years.

And I'm commenting because the Lumineers aren't holding my attention.

The technical name for street lights is "luminaires." Wonder if they misspelled something.

Heard about the Lumineers early Thanks to one of our local blogs. Always thought this was one of the best songs. Commercial radio pretty much killed Ho-Hey

What is Elbow doing in that list? Their music is nothing like this. And they've been around for 10 years.

Agreed. The first couple chords always fake me out the same way, and I go dashing for the mute/PSD button. Not quite as painful as M&S though; I can just tolerate.
