New Tiësto (Feat. Tegan & Sara) - "Feel It In My Bones" (Stereogum Premiere)
Dutch DJ Tiësto's fourth studio album Kaleidoscope comes with a variety of collaborative vocal guests spots including Jónsi of Sigur Rós, Kele of Bloc Party, Nelly Furtado, Calvin Harris, Emily Haines, and Tegan & Sara. He explains the logjam:
The starting point was to work with different artists that I liked. It was as simple as that. Sigur Rós make beautiful music. Bloc Party are fantastic and exciting and innovative. But the hardest thing initially was to get those kind of people to collaborate. They don't work with dance artists as a rule, and especially not a dance DJ, but when we started producing these tracks, I was surprised at how well the styles work together.
The first collaboration took place a year ago or so with T&S. If you recall, he remixed their "Back In Your Head." This time time they feel someone deep in their bones. As far as the he said/she said, he gave them a track, they wrote lyrics and vocal lines for it, he finished it up in his Holland studio. The artists are pretty stoked about the results. As Sara puts it:
Per her request, take a listen to "Feel It In My Bones."
The man himself.
This is after the fact, ok, but here's T&S announcing this debut from an undisclosed shower stall:

i would have to say saras catchiest song yet, tegans section is amazing aswell, not a big fan of tiesto but good job man, looking foward to sainthood!
Score = 0
LOVE THIS! I am going to listen to it over and over and over and over again. Its so catchy!
Score = 1
DJ Tiesto on stereogum? Just because he makes a collaboration with two lesbian twins who are more famous cos of their looks and sexuality than their music? Sad.
Score = -13
WTF indeed are you talking about? They are respected because they are grassroots artists... they built their career themselves and they have been growing it naturally and progressively over the past decade! Their music has nothing to do with their sexuality or looks (although one song I was married is about marriage inequality, so technically) as a fan their music is what i love the most. What makes me a fan of them as people is the fact that they stand up for who they are and don't hide which creates progress in our society. How many artists can say they do that? On top of all this yes they are ridiculously funny and good looking.. just a bonus though. ha. What your doing is in fact the very thing you're complaining about and perpetuating the pigeon hole that the media regularly (but less and less now) puts them in. You should maybe listen to them before you pass judgment and just pass them off as some gimmick. They are some of the most real and honest artists out there.
Score = 10
thanks Xan. i didn't feel like argueing and saying all of that. he made me mad, lol. you speak well.
Score = 1
Well said Xan! I totaly agree with you!
Score = 1
way to tell that dumbass off!! pretty sure tiesto wouldve been on here if he didnt collaborate w/ t&s. i hope they feel like a pile of shit after what you told them. nicely done =)
Score = 0
wow...looks like a major case of envy to me here
i like the song, very catchy indeed
Score = 1
Considering your grammer, your in no position to put them down....
They are talented and if that statement that you made is true, then we should just kill off everyone in society who focuses on little things like that because their music is amazing...
Score = -1
Are you being ironic or moronic? Picking on grammar isn't 'focusing on little things' to you? Furthermore, if he's the kettle then you're the pot; to rephrase that, people in glass houses shouldn't use bad grammar.
Score = 2
hahahaha, you spelled grammar wrong.
Score = -1
WOW...you are so wrong. There's an army of T&S fans ready to pounce on anyone who misjudges them...just sayin'
Score = 0
Tegan and Sara aren't even famous, they just have a very strong fan base. One that doesn't love them because of their looks or their lifestyles, but their music. Although, they are hilarious, witty, and charming, their music is what it's all about.
Score = 1
If anything, Tiesto is more famous. Idiot.
Score = 0
That's the reason why they are famous for YOU, loser. For other people they are famous cause we love their music. And the only sad thing here is YOU.
Score = 0
Wow. SOMEBODY is kind of a douche.
And if you think Tegan and Sara got were they are because of gimmicks and looks, you have no idea what you are talking about. And that's fine for you, but no need to let the world know. Tegan and Sara Quin are two highly respectable and talented musicians living in a world where talent and respectability are of little consequence to the masses - - which include many, many douchebags such as yourself.
And, hey, if nothing else, DJ Tiesto has relatively good taste in music, hey.
A-ight?
Score = 0
Not outstanding, very Tiesto. I do like Sara's voice she should quit Tegan and Sara and make European disco songs.
Score = 0
Agreed. Tiesto is a joke these chicks should hook up with an electro deejay if they want to branch out into beats.
Bad techno is just... bad.
Score = 4
You mean trance ?!
Score = 2
Kind of agree. It's a great track, but I don't know if I'd like it as much if it didn't have some Tegan and Sara on there. They really should do a collab with an Electro DJ... but my boyfriend would love this. Why do older gay dudes love Trance? :p jokes

YEAH. i love this. so much.
Score = 0
Tiesto is a great entry point for a lot of new dance music fans, as he's the most marketable and -ed DJ in the world, (another being David Guetta and his Black Eyed Peas productions,) but his music/style isn't the most respected in the industry.
But hey, if this spawns more collaborations with dance music producers, which are some of the most innovative in the industry, then I'm all for it!!
Score = 0
This sounds great, I personally prefer it over the Back In Your Head Remix. Sara's voice blends so well with the melodies, and Tegan's voice gives the song a vibrant but calming effect. I love Tegan and Sara and they did an amazing job in providing lyrics. :)
Score = 2
amazing :D
Score = 0
Sara's voice is soo sexy! MMmmmMmMmm.....
Tegan and Sara should do more electro/electronica!! i suppose because electro/electronica is my personal favorite genre. ;) But i love it! girls do more of this in the future!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! please!
Score = 1
I like the song and especially the lyrics. I'm excited for the new albums from both artists. Solid background music with awesome vocals and lyrics = I could totally dance to this or just listen to it while sitting. Multi-purpose song. :P
Score = 1
I don't understand how it's so amazing! Love it.
Score = 1
Repeat!

Incredible!! already listened to it twice. T&S both sound AMAZING. can't wait to get this song!

I am loving the new mixes of Tiesto. And Tegan and Sara kick too much ass NOT to have on this album. Cannot wait to listen to the full-length! And, for that matter, Tegan and Sara's new album in October :}
Score = 1
Okay, so I have to admit that when I heard T&S were going to be on Tiesto's new album I was a bit skeptical to say the least because I don't like the BIYH remix. After listening to this song, I can honestly say I'm very surprisingly impressed. I love it, but then again with Tegan and Sara having written the lyrics, it make sense. I love the way that Sara's voice blends with the melody and Tegan's backing vocals are amazing. I'm for sure buying this song when it's officially released.
Score = 1
This is really good! Tiesto looks so silly

woooooooooooow i absolutely love it. Sara's voice is just the most amazingly original sound my ears have ever has the pleasure to process (not to mention, she is also easy on the eyes). :D I don't mean to sound trite,but she definitely grabs and holds my undivided attention not only with her musical ability ,but with her intellect and personality.
Score = 1
Yep me like this very much!!

i have to admit that i like the song!i didn't like the remix of BIYH so i was a bit sceptical, but this song is definitely a winner!!Sara's voice is amazing and the part around 2:58 with Tegan's vocals getting louder...just great!!amazing work from the Ladies and Tiesto!!!

T&S are alright in my book, but I long for the day when idiots will stop fawning over soulless, ennui-inducing, navel-gazing electronic garbage. To the individual who claims that Stereogum only posted this because Tegan and Sara are lesbians-- it is probably much more the case that most North Americans who care about Tiesto only do so out of vacuous Europhilia. Notwithstanding the song's heterosexism, the Dead Milkmen's "You'll Dance to Anything" still hits the nail on the head.

i liked tegan and sara better when they were still just the canadian twins no one had heard of besides me and a handful of lesbians. i used to e-mail them and sara would e-mail me back and tell me about tegan's new haircut and other cute things. they're so talented and i'm glad they're successful now (no doubt they deserve it) but too many idiots listen to their music now and it's not the same.

You obviously don't listen to much electronic music because this isn't techno. Before you call something bad, know something about it first. Thanks.
Admittedly, Tiesto has lost his touch.

Score = 0
I'm not a big fan of techo/dance but I love the song. As far as I'm concerned these two women are just extremely talented. It wouldn't matter what music you put behind their voices. For those folks who don't like it.. that's your right. It doesn't change my mind. For the folks who think T&S are just using they're sexuality for the purpose of financial gain, you really should educate yourself about the subject matter before opening your mouth and saying something ignorant.
Score = 1
i love it!

I think its real nice, actually. Very catchy and a bit different but it still has that T&S flavor to it. Definitely cant wait for Sainthood.. has to be quite amazing, me thinks.

Love this song very catchy. I've listened to it quite a few times already and i'm starting to annoy my roommate... oh well. Love Tegan and Sara and while i haven't to tiesto too much before this song is awsome and dancy =) Thank you Tiesto, Tegan and Sara I might actually learn to dance because of this track lol

I can only assume, by the utter vacuousness of the 80! comments on this meaningless drivel by meaningless people, that there was some sort of concerted effort/link/fan club prize package to try to convince the jaded Brooklyn-worshipping grad students on this site that, golly, some d-grade folk singer yowling over fucking outdated Eurotrance beats is somehow just, like, the best thing ever. Nice work, Tegan/Sara/Tiesto street team! You've won me over!
However, it is better than that fucking Weezer they keep talking about here.

oh well, i knew i would stop listening to tiësto someday. i'm not really into pop music.

before this, i thought tegan and sara were rather mediocre, and was surprised by the number of views on youtube. then i read the comments here and realized what a shitty fanbase they have, filled with not-just-yet hipster highschool girls orgasming over any acoustic female singers.
Score = -1
Thank you XAN! (is your name Alexander? AWESOME nickname) I never know how to respond to comments like that.
mainstream media picks up on TnS every once in a while and only on their sexuality and the fact that they're twins and things like that and I'm assuming one of those occasional mentions is how WTF heard about them. So, WTF, I agree with XAN you need to just do some research for yourself, they have a heavy loaded Wikipedia page, they've been in the indie scene for 10 years now, built their fan base on their own. They earned everything the have, their success is a result of hard work.
Which is why fans are so protective of them; we know what they have done to get where they are. And it seems like someone is always trying to discredit them, so excuse us if we come off a bit aggressive.
Score = 1
Tegan and Sara are boring. They have one decent album so far . One. So jealous. Thats it. Everything else is crappy hipster shit. Your all little girls who also have Paramore on the ipod. Your all little sheep and wear that same hottopic popular flannel shirt tegan wears. on the constant. you get the same haircut. There about equivalent to a boy band. Yup. they have a great PR team thats why you even know who they are, there are sooo many great bands but they never come close to their little girl fanbase. t and s just got lucky. plain and simple. right place and right timing. This song is so bad. Tiesto sucks the biggest balls of them all. He doesnt know shit about music other then to make it stupid dancy overrated techno and then send then before you know it your local beauty bar and indoe dance club is spinning it for the smelly,hairy airpit girl and tight pant ackward boy to dance to. rock and roll is lost. because you little girls wont research, wont remember, wont invent and wont seak out the true real music that is out there. fuck tiesto and fuck this song. the con was boring and sainthood will have one lukewarm song that you kids can sing loudly too at their next acts and then really jump up when you hear BIYH. take a shower.
Score = -3
What? People actually like Paramore?
Score = 0
First of all...I certainly own no flannel shirts, nor do I have the same haircut as any hipster lesbian. My hair has been the same since 7th grade. Moving on from that embarrassing note...go re-do 3rd grade and learn how to spell.

I'll prob get flamed for saying this, but this song is decent at best, im a huge tiesto fan and after comparing it to most of his music, it jus doesnt seem as good as most of you make it out to be, I mean yes, w all no Tiesto is a genius but, this song just isn't one of his best. Just my opnion though. Its good, but thats it

sara's voice is the best thing ever.
this song is on repeat.

This is such a great song. I love Sara's voice. I can't wait for Sainthood !!!
Score = -1
I agree with the basic criticism--this song isn't that great. I suppose it doesn't help that I'm not a fan of the pop/techno genre. Having said that, this isn't at all reflective of Tegan and Sara's musicality or overall talent. I honestly don't understand all of the severely negative comments directed towards them and their fans. I think the following that they have built for themselves isn't at all due to a successful PR campaign--in fact, it appears that most of the promoting that goes on for tours and albums and T&S gear comes straight from the sisters themselves. They have clearly (as many people have already mentioned) built a following for themselves over the course of ten years, rarely sacrificing integrity and quality for success. Whether their music appeals to you or not--as it inevitably cannot appeal to everyone--there is no need to hurl insults every which way: just listen to the song and move on.
Score = 1
ALEX, DUDE!! Stop generalizing you don't know WHAT you're talking about, I am sure that there are fans that fit your extremely offensive harsh profile, but not everyone. In fact I bet some TnS fans are into whatever music you are.
My favorite bands are Queens of the Stone Age and Sleater-Kinney. I love TnS as well. I also LOVE Metallica, Alice In Chains, Stone Temple Pilots AND Paramore. It's called flexiblity most people have it now-a-days. And you know what? It's GREAT! It means I can listen to and enjoy a wide variety of music and enjoy it.
Why so angry anyway? Music is about opinions and people will disagree, but argue? Telling people they're wrong for liking or not liking something, is pointless!
P.S I'm not that crazy about BIYH either, see, gotta stop generalizing!!!

AGREED
Score = -1
I think my enjoyment of this song is purely based on the Tegan and Sara aspect haha. Dance music isn't really my thing.
I really enjoy the shifting texture creating by the vocals and the harmonies. Tegan and Sara did a wonderful job writing in a style that (as far as I am aware) they have never written in before c:
They have a gorgeous sense of musical sound. I think they could make anything sound great. The end.
Score = 2
Some of you all need to stop hating. Its one thing to dislike, but some of you are taking it to another unnecessary level.
Sara has a great voice for this type of dance/electro genre. But the song really kicks up with Tegan's part. LOVE IT. I don't know if I felt more energy, liked the lyrics or the melody change, but she kilt her part.
Love them singing together. I like it. Alot.
Score = 2
I'm disappointed. Then again, our era of music tends to be disappointing. I have respect for them as individuals because I've observed how intellectual both of them are and that does come across in their music. However, I feel that they should work seperately as individual artists. I feel like that would be a more rewarding and refreshing sound.

Did someone say something about "PR agents" or something like that??? wow....hilarious, a lot of people are commenting on Tegan & Sara who obviously know very little about them. Well I will try to make this my last comment, and I just want to suggest that people who don't know much about Tegan & Sara, their music, their history, or their fans maybe just stick to giving an opinion on the track. I mean, it seems to be all of what the people who don't like Tegan & Sara on here (so far) really know about.
Score = 2
How do you explain that this story got 110 comments in half a day. EVEN A RADIOHEAD STORY WOULD NOT GET SO MANY COMMENTS ON STEREOGUM. Tegan and Sara obviously have a great PR agency, I think they are even the ones posting comments under false names here to get more popularity.

Hahahahaha dickhead.
Tegan and Sara posted a link on their own site. Tegan and Sara fans visit the site 10 times daily.
You think they would miss hearing a new song by them?

So apparently we aren't allowed to like paramore if we like T&S. thanks to the people, like alex for example, who pointed out that it is wrong to like more than one artist or genre. ill get busy deleting the other 182 artists besides tegan and sara that i have on my ipod right now! heaven forbid i have an open mind about music and variety in what i listen to. :)
great song btw. Tegan and Sara rock, as do many other artists. (hope i don't get in trouble for saying that) ;)
Score = 1
It's not even their song! lol It's Tiesto's!....anyway
HAHA how do I explain it! You! Me everyone! this back and forth debating and arguing is how it happened! AND the fans, as mentioned by a few people before TnS have built their fan base on their own. Starting 10 years ago and have gotten popular through word of mouth. It really is marketing through fans. They're indie and have been on indie labels since they've been out, trust and believe they didn't have PR agents when they were selling out small clubs and venues in 2002 when their 3rd cd came out, hell they didn't even have management when they first appeared on Letterman! They have created their own community, with NO HELP from labels. Now WMG distributes their music and gives them a small budget for videos but that's ALL Warner does! They're signed under Sire which is a indie label, granted a larger one but indie nonetheless and I assure you once they got under them they had no need for a "PR Agency" as they were well established in the indie scene. Also they managed to get some radio play, enough to further grow their fan base.

oh and as for the whole p.r. thing and the number of comments...it's the exact opposite. the reason so many ppl commented is because t&s don't even need a p.r. team. they communicate directly to the fans via their website and twitter. which you would all know if you watched the video that is posted on this very page. don't diss on a band just because they have dedicated fans. after all that is the point right? :)

So wait, is this the official song that will be on Sainthood, or is it just a remix by this techno guy? Because if it's a remix, than the original song will sound wrong when I have this stuck in my head, but if this is the song T&S made, then I hope the album has some more techno-like songs. It's a cool new style and I'd hate for the new album to just sound like The Con or something not new.

I think this is just a song they wrote with/for the Tiesto chap. Pretty sure it won't be on their album.

This song dance/electro? I don't think so.....
Some of you need to go and listen to more dance/electro/trance. I'm a huge fan of Tiesto and Tiesto is a TRANCE DJ!!!! I have pretty broad music tastes and have only recently become familiar with Tegan & Sara and yeah, they're OK - nothing too special... I'd way prefer to sit back and listen to Aussie grassroots/folk singer/songwriter/musician, Missy Higgins, or someone with equally as much talent.
This song is soooooo far from what Tiesto does so I'm really not a fan. Actually, i'm incredibly disappointed. I think this song is rubbish. Good work Tegan and Sara - I'm sure this collaboration with Tiesto has been a huge step in your music career as this song will help your name branch out to a whole new fan base in the "dance" (lol if that's what you'd like to call it) world...
Unfortunately, this song does absolutely nothing for me.

Oh holy yes! Is this the 3EB for 2009 at SG? Finally!
You TnS fanboys (I guess fangirls is the more accurate, though uncoined phrase) have no idea what you've done to your favorite band. Although, it wouldn't surprise me to find out that TnS fans *also* have 3EB lyrics tattooed down their arms.
Score = 0
TroutFishingUSA: I just need you to clarify that, I'm assuming 3EB is Third Eye Blind, wtf how did they come up, what do they have to do with this??? I can't defend myself yet cause I'm not sure what your comment means or exactly how offensive it really is.
Fanboy? I'm not a boy and what do you mean "what i did to my favorite band"? I don't recall saying TnS is are favorite band, anyway all I did was respond things that were being said about them that were untrue. You should also do that with your favorite band, or anything one and anything that you see being slandered.

If you like their music, you like their music. Why would you give up listening to something you enjoy just because they collaborated with one crappy DJ. Don't be so precious. You may not like this song of course, but that doesn't mean you won't love Sainthood.
Score = 2
cause of a song they did for someone else???? alright obviously that's your call but I do hope you understand this is just a song they wrote WITH Tiesto FOR Tiesto's record.
And btw this is for everyone: guys this song is NOT for/on Sainthood, they said in that video this is a song they wrote with Tiesto for Kaleidoscope a year ago! It's not their song and its not for any of their records.
Score = 1
I don't normally like music in the genre of Tiesto's. But I love love love Tegan and Sara (great song-writers, awesome live shows etc etc). So, I was intrigued to hear this collaboration.
I quite like it. Sara's voice sounds fantastic and I like the parts when they're both singing.
Definitely something I’ll enjoy listening to now and then when I’m in the mood for something a bit more “doof doof” than my usual music. I might be tempted to check out the rest of the new Tiesto album when it comes out too. The other collaborations on the album also look really interesting!
So thanks Tegan and Sara and Tiesto for adding a bit of variety to my music player :-)
Score = 0
Jesus Christ. This is where Tiesto going is realy fucking bad. I mean OMG WHY? Don't do it man. U kill your fans. They are all crying. WTF is this? Pop music by teh god of trance...i know we can say trance is dead and changing styles to house is what everyone is doing cuz it is money. But pop artists? Why are they useful? Unlistenable crap. Make proper house music then or something but not this pop music pls. Too big changes. No one of your fans can listen this trust me. This is such a falling compared to your old stuff. :( I am really disappoointed. Will you play these shits in your sets? Ppl will go home...Oh well i dont understand at all. Have fun making music with this pop artists then. But dont forget tokio hotel and britney pls!. Thanks

hmm. I'm not hating on electronica, but Tiesto's music, to my ears, has a certain blandness to it. That said, if there have to be bland beats in this world, it's nice to have vocals from artists I enjoy hearing. And if this song gets a few electro/dance/trance (whatever you wanna call it) fans curious enough to check out more of Tegan and Sara's music, then it's all to the good, as far as I'm concerned.
Score = 1
TnS are amazing!! They arent sellouts. Now if the entire sainthood album sounded like this, yes i would call them sell outs, maybe. I probably wouldnt even do that i would just stop listening to them. They were asked by tiesto himself to put lyrics to this track. Obviously the guy knows what he's doing. I wish the best of luck to Tiesto and of course to TnS. They're amazing and have gotten to where they are today because they are indeed talented musicians. They write all their own material and play it all. They dont just have a computer w/a bunch of pre-recorded sounds that they copy and paste together to make a song. If you want to point the finger at the music industry w/ the least amount of talent that's polluting the airwaves and destroying our youth, then blame rap!! That is the one genre of music that needs to die.

I love this song, it just shows that they have such range of talents that they could pull off an amazing full on dance song, and then go and play some delicate acoustic folk ballad, then a pop song, then a rock song, it just shows so much depth. Going back to the moronic argument up there, I am a male, 19 and Tegan and Sara do self promote all the time on their website and I do listen to other kinds of music

Of the 176 comments so far, about 150 seem to be from rabid teenage Tegan and Sara fans who have never been to Stereogum before, and are now choking it with their childish, screechy comments.

I saw Tiesto at Coachella couple of years back. I'm not a big fan of trance so I kind of had to suffer through it while watching my sister go crazy. I have to say I like this song because i'm a t&s fan. but as someone who had to sit through a whole Tiesto set, I have to say that this isn't very Tiesto at all. maybe it's because I actually like it. i'm not trying to knock the trance movement.

OK, first, i really like this song and looking forward to the new Tiesto album.
Yes the song is not trance, far from it, but then why does it have to be? Tiesto has been in the business and a success long enough to do what he wants to do, and having listening to all his albums have to say that he moved away from making trance a long time ago, but that doesn't mean they're not good songs. He is a trance DJ who plays trance music in his sets, but that doesn't mean he has to stick to producing trance music, they're two different sides of his career.
Just listen to the song and enjoy!

As a great electronic/trance music fan that i am, i have to say this is sad, electronic music has lost all the tiesto's old style with tracks that made him famous like traffi, dance 4 life and the masterpiece adagio for strings. He made such beautiful trance tracks and he became the # 1 Dj for 3 years. But now he is getting off EDM, we the trance fans dont see very good this of tiesto. Well at least i dont like him now, but yeah i have to admit that a few of his new song are a bit good like i will be here etc
