I remember watching a documentary about lilly Allen, and at the time she wrote this song, her sister were never on good terms and didn't talk that well for many years after she listened to this song that lilly wrote to her, they immediately forgives each other and lived happily after (or so it seemed) they decided to go in partnership with a vintage clothing store called Lucy in Disguise (based by a Beatles song) where Lilly put in most of the capital the strain on there bond and the bussiness were taken there toll. Lilly and her sister Sharha which is one of the main reasons why she had a few years brake and also wanted to take care of her babies. In 2014 the Allen sisters closed the rental clothes shop after being a massive flop and filed for bankruptcy. She then came back in the music industry in mid 2013 with a new studio album, I think its safe to say that both sisters are still friends=)
this song makes me cry.......... its kinda like what ive always hoped my older sister would tell me but i know thats never gonna happen.. i just know her.. :(
I was introduced to Lily Allen from The Fear and i really like her songs. I started to listen to her other songs and i really liked this one. HANDS UP FOR LILY!!!
When we were growing up you always looked like you were having such fun You always were and you always will be the taller and the prettier one People seem to love you They gravitate towards you That's why I started to hate you so much And I just completely ignored you I don't know why I felt the need to keep it up for oh so long It's all my fault I'm sorry you did absolutely nothing wrong I don't know why I felt the need to drag it out for all these years All the pain I've caused you The constant flow of all the tears Believe me when I say that I cannot apologise enough When all you ever wanted from me was a token of my love And if it's not too late Could you please find it deep within your heart To try and go back go back to the start Go back to the start I've been so evil with my constant invasions But you made it so easy for me You always rise to the occasion I'll always pull you up on every stupid thing that you say But I found it so entertaining Messing around with your head I don't know why I felt the need to keep it up for oh so long It's all my fault I'm sorry you did absolutely nothing wrong I don't know why I felt the need to drag it out for all these years All the pain I've caused you The constant flow of all the tears Believe me when I say that I cannot apologise enough When all you ever wanted from me was a token of my love And if it's not too late Could you please find it deep within your heart To try and go back go back to the start Go back to the start Go back to the start Go back to the start This is not just a song I intend to put these words into action I hope that it sums up the way that I feel to your satisfaction I don't know why I felt the need to keep it up for oh so long It's all my fault I'm sorry you did absolutely nothing wrong I don't know why I felt the need to drag it out for all these years All the pain I've caused you The constant flow of all the tears Believe me when I say that I cannot apologise enough When all you ever wanted from me was a token of my love And if it's not too late Could you please find it deep within your heart To try and go back go back to the start Go back to the start
I can remember listening to this song for the very first time and just falling in love with it.. somewhere end 2008/early 2009, album came out early feb 2009 but some tracks were leaked. here we are 8 years later. forgot have much I actually loved. now I'm hooked again ❤
it's such a sad thing. I think my sister and I have a lot of the same kind of mutual resentment. Oh, Lily Allen... she always captures the nature of human behavior.
I just stumbled over her music and I have to say that this song is one of her strongest. Interesting lyrics, the pace kind of changes in the chorus and this wonderful signature lick at the beginning. I don't know, it has captivated me.
One thing I love about Lily Allen is her open expression of her emotions. It's quite notable how her opinion stands, but asides from that I love how she displays her emotions will glass, unfiltered and transparent. I didn't realize the great lucidity of this song's lyrics until now, but I feel such a deeper admiration in her. I always felt an interest with her and her music but this song particularly touches my heart. I know that I don't know her full name, her full story, her greatest fears and dearest memories, but she definitely does not feel estranged to me either. I feel this song with a strange sense of familiarity, almost as if she read my diaries. I felt this way to my older sister, I admired her so much to a point where I envied her, it caused me deep down emotional pain over the years while also modeling into unjustified anger. Deep down in my heart I know Lily is not a stranger of this if she were truly the one to write this song. It amazes me how we may not know each other's fundamental info, but what truly matters is the connection between those.
I know it's been years that I made this comment but I revisited it and realized I made a typo. I didn't mean my older sister, but my younger one. Little sister, if you're reading this, I'm sorry for all the pain I caused you. I know that I can't take it back and I don't mean to because I know that it's impossible but just know what I am so sorry. I love you so much. Our parents pitted us against eachother, but you are not at fault. And I rise against the truama I faced. I know better now. I should have never bullied you. I should have never treated you less because our parents didn't love me. But now I know you are not to blame, because no true parent makes their children fight for love. It is something they unconditionally give. I didn't have that and I thought you were to blame...but you're not. It was them. I love you so much and despite of the troubles you recieved in your life, you turned out to be a beautiful person as cheesy as it sounds. I hope one day, when I'm ready, when the time is right and when I'm free from my abusive household, I can fix things with you and we can have the relationship we deserve. I know we can. This song is dedicated to you.
One thing I love about Lily is that you can always here what the lyrics to the song is, instead of just hearing jibberish under the music, like some of today's other music. Same thing with Blackmore's night.
omg, I found it yesterday. it's my favourite song, I just didn't want to go offline because I wanted to continue hearing it. I'd rather listen this f*cking great song than sleeping ♥ MARRY ME, LILY ALLEN !!!
Hoy es cumpleaños de mi hermano que falleció en Octubre y de niños como muchos tuvimos una pésima relación después crecimos y en algún momento le dediqué esta canción y solo me abrazo y me dijo Te Amo. Hoy se la dedico hasta el cielo y le digo Te Amo.
yes its about lily and her sister how lily felt like 2nd best to her sister and that her sister was taller and prettier but now realises she was being silly! its an awsome song!
How the fuck is this album so good??? It's so underrated!! its one of the biggest album of the last years!
agreed ^-^
The best album of all time. I'm listening to it in 2020 on quarantine.
Listen to alright still by lily allen too and made of bricks by kate nash. they are amazing too
agreed
Underrated classic I’m crying like a baby rn to a pop song
This was such a sick album !

Her sister still causes problems in Lily's relationship with her parents, though. Listen to her new song "Who Do You Love?"
Documentary name?.. this song reminds me of my friends I've lost overtime
@@danuk2136 lily allen from riches to rags, just type in youtube all the episodes are there
Ol,,lol,l,ll,

David Monrreal I love this song
Yeah, very powerful line, and gets you right in the feels.

a song talking about being wrong and recognizing it.
I need do tell her this
I need to tell her this
this song makes me cry.......... its kinda like what ive always hoped my older sister would tell me but i know thats never gonna happen.. i just know her.. :(
Lily Allen = perfection
How is this song so underrated? One of my favourite Lily's songs
This is the perfect song for Tahani and Kamilah
Omg, yes.
omg this song is something all teenage girls should listen to
my fav lily song
this song makes me cry :) she has something very real and genuine to her musical/artistic persona
sort of imperfectly perfect :)
there shouldnt b any shame in listening to old music. sometimes its the old music thats the best...
what a powerful message. this is why i love lily allen. she's just amazing. we need more singers like her!
This song describes me and my sisters relationship so well.
no she hasnt quit!! dnt be so silly!! lilly allen is brilliant i really like her!!
I was introduced to Lily Allen from The Fear and i really like her songs.

HANDS UP FOR LILY!!!
When we were growing up you always looked like you were having such fun
You always were and you always will be the taller and the prettier one
People seem to love you
They gravitate towards you
That's why I started to hate you so much
And I just completely ignored you
I don't know why I felt the need to keep it up for oh so long
It's all my fault I'm sorry you did absolutely nothing wrong
I don't know why I felt the need to drag it out for all these years
All the pain I've caused you
The constant flow of all the tears
Believe me when I say that I cannot apologise enough
When all you ever wanted from me was a token of my love
And if it's not too late
Could you please find it deep within your heart
To try and go back go back to the start
Go back to the start
I've been so evil with my constant invasions
But you made it so easy for me
You always rise to the occasion
I'll always pull you up on every stupid thing that you say
But I found it so entertaining
Messing around with your head
I don't know why I felt the need to keep it up for oh so long
It's all my fault I'm sorry you did absolutely nothing wrong
I don't know why I felt the need to drag it out for all these years
All the pain I've caused you
The constant flow of all the tears
Believe me when I say that I cannot apologise enough
When all you ever wanted from me was a token of my love
And if it's not too late
Could you please find it deep within your heart
To try and go back go back to the start
Go back to the start
Go back to the start
Go back to the start
This is not just a song
I intend to put these words into action
I hope that it sums up the way that I feel to your satisfaction
I don't know why I felt the need to keep it up for oh so long
It's all my fault I'm sorry you did absolutely nothing wrong
I don't know why I felt the need to drag it out for all these years
All the pain I've caused you
The constant flow of all the tears
Believe me when I say that I cannot apologise enough
When all you ever wanted from me was a token of my love
And if it's not too late
Could you please find it deep within your heart
To try and go back go back to the start
Go back to the start
Love.Lily.

i like it that Lily Allen is completely honest in her songs. Some people might dislike them, but she's just stating the truth about reality :)
This song is one of the many highlights of the album. It's just beyond incredible. Oooh, can't wait to hear it live.
Yea and older goody 2 shoes won a lot in her little time.😂

+ceputza That's mathematically impossible
Look at how long the video is.
Parisa Baweja Shariff wait was that a reply to me or to Ceputza, because 6x4,24 = 26,24
@@ceputza power move lol

I love how she doesn't sing like she living a fantasy like Taylor swift she lives in reality

One thing I love about Lily Allen is her open expression of her emotions.

I have been looking for this song for years!! Ah i love my roommate for having this song in her playlist
such an amazing album this is
One thing I love about Lily is that you can always here what the lyrics to the song is, instead of just hearing jibberish under the music, like some of today's other music. Same thing with Blackmore's night.
Pretty ironic that this is on the album "its not me, its you"
Lmaooo, maybe its a constrasting reference to how she used to think about some things 🤔
👍
Ironic or true to the title of the album?
I loved this song the first time I listened to it, but back then my English was too poor for me to understand it. The lyrics hits pretty hard.
I rmeber I would listen to this whole album in high school. Class of 09'
all her songs have a meaning. i love it 5/5
omg, I found it yesterday. it's my favourite song, I just didn't want to go offline because I wanted to continue hearing it. I'd rather listen this f*cking great song than sleeping ♥
MARRY ME, LILY ALLEN !!!
