Lyrics:
Take me out tonight
Where there's music and there's people
Who are young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
Anymore
Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people
And I want to see lights
Driving in your car
Oh please don't drop me home
Because it's not my home
It's their home
And I'm welcome no more
And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure and the privilege is mine
Take me out tonight
Oh take me anywhere
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought "Oh God, my chance has come at last"
But then a strange fear gripped me
And I just couldn't ask
Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care
Just driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
Oh, I haven't got one
There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out
There is a light that never goes out...
My friend died back in July and a few friends played this at her funeral for her.. This is beautiful.
Glad they kept the original melody but still able to provide their own touch
Never knew Citizen did a cover of this song, wow. They did really good.
What a great surprise, ain't it? :D
Igor Rech Very good surprise, indeed!
Because is just Mat, on his solo project
Actually, they did it better
Halle Mae double decker bussss
the ending melody is so much more than just few notes. its epic. so beautiful. i find it the essence of the song summed up to the last few moments.
That's thanks to the magical melody writing of Johnny Marr, he and Morrissey made a great writing team
Can it all be played by one guitar or it must be 2?
i like how they(/mat) can make a cover sound so like "their own"
@@fwant2729 kosomak
two of my faves combined
I'm so in love with this cover ohmygod
Take me out tonight
Where there's music and there's people
And they're young and alive
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one
Anymore
Take me out tonight
Because I want to see people and I
Want to see life
Driving in your car
Oh, please don't drop me home
Because it's not my home, it's their
Home, and I'm welcome no more
And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine
Take me out tonight
Take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
And in the darkened underpass
I thought oh God, my chance has come at last
(but then a strange fear gripped me and I
Just couldn't ask)
Take me out tonight
Oh, take me anywhere, I don't care
I don't care, I don't care
Driving in your car
I never never want to go home
Because I haven't got one, da...
Oh, I haven't got one
And if a double-decker bus
Crashes into us
To die by your side
Is such a heavenly way to die
And if a ten-ton truck
Kills the both of us
To die by your side
Well, the pleasure - the privilege is mine
Oh, there is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
There is a light and it never goes out
Found this going through my old playlists and god damn i forgot how much i love this song ❤ what an incredible band citizen remains to be.
I wish this was on spotify!
Citizen covering The Smiths literally reminds me of those anticipated cartoon crossovers we watched as kids. Least expected and done very well.
I AM FUCKING LIVING FOR THIS COVER. HOLY SHITTTTTT.
wow this voice
1:32 the way he hit “miiiine” gah 😍
this is beautiful. I mean, the original is beautiful but this... this transcends any conventional measure of beauty. I'm not saying this is better than the original, because I mean.. I was raised with Morrissey. But, I've got to admit.. they did well. Especially for a pop-punk band.
Hahaha more like Matt himself but yeah I'm sure the gets credit too ahaa
It's not as good as the original but what cober is?
@@mattinfullvision9598 RBF's cover of The Specials song Monkey Man was on par with the original, if not possibly better
!!!!!!!!!!! literally there are so many good things i keep finding from/about this band, like literally yesterday I learned that they're touring with sorority noise and coming to my city and now i find out they covered one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands, how am I supposed to handle this??????
It's refreshing to hear a Smiths cover that's actually good
How did I not know this existed, my favourite band covering one of my favourite songs! love it
This is an fantastic cover; very evenly toned and balanced.
FAVORITE COVER OF THIS SONG
I want someone with deep baritone voice to sing this.
Gabrinjo if only Johnny Cash covered this!
Holy fucking shit. I can't believe Citizen covered my favorite The Smiths song.
This is fucking amazing
Well... I'm going on a Smiths binge now, cya.
I second that motion. Both bands are great. And a great local band covered a classic song. Perfect.
This is so perfect.
OMG!!!! THIS!!!!!!! WOW!!!!! so so talented well done boys you've made me so proud, I was here since day 1 and look how far you've all come, tearing up just writing this :;)
I love The Smiths and Citizen, and I am so glad that this cover does the original justice.
Colby Brock brought me here. It's amazing!!!
omg i love mats voice so much
I love citizen so much as well as this song
Will always prefer the original, but this cover is one I could not get out of my head. It's great.
love the smiths and love citizen i love this
Thanks Colby! 😭💕 this cover is great!
I was surprised, but I think this is pretty good.
Stumbled upon this by accident, I was looking for the original(x but this cover is freakin amazing(: you really UNDERSTAND the song...
Très belle version acoustique. Superbe voix.
Heard this some so many times and I love it actually so much thankssss colbyyyy💕💕💗
The original will always be the best, but this is a really, really good cover....
Best thing ive ever herd
Actually a really good job, I wonder if they've ever covered Elliot Smith. Mat Kerekes voice is very similar.
My favorite artist ever incredibly difficult to cover Elliott he was so meticulous
That would be the best.
this is a song by a band no one should ever touch...... welll i ate my words when i heard this. i have a good feeling Morrissey would approve
i love citizen. i love the smiths. i love that citizen covered the smiths, so perfect
Mat Kerekes voice is perfect for covering The Smiths I think, actually it's just amazing anyway.
There's just so much emotion in this song, and Citizen brought that out very well in this cover. Wow.
pictured that scenic car bit where effy and cook were trying to run away from bristol
skins ❤
SKINS UK is life and I really loved those two, both together and separate. Cook's finale to Rise, however, was so damn good!
thanks for showing me this colby!!!
My favorite version✨
didn't expect to find mizu tunes here, but here we go Mizuboys!
One of my favorite bands covering one of my favorites bands...sure, ok
love this cover
This is SO much better than the original. Really disappointed I can’t get it on iTunes 😭
Gives me chills..I love this song so much
I think this is probably the best cover of this song
Forever love Citizen
1 of the best smiths covers ever
I completely forgot about this omg thank you colby fucking brock for posting this on your story (not that youll see this lol) i use to listen to this all the time.
so incredibly proud that this amazing band is from my hometown (':
Touches the untouchable
this dudes voice is on point
Colby ❤️❤️
Ahsoma yessss😂😂
Lucifer b glad to know there are others who do this 😅😍
I love their spin on the “the pleasure, the privilege is mine”
line. it feels almost sad and ironic.
Colby Brock... you have good taste in music
Tiffany Harrington agreed
I agree is it funny that I know all of them 😂😅
I actually really love this cover 😊👍
This is so perfect omfg.
The video of J. Cole and Lil Pump had him mention people taking stuff from video calls on a phone (reminding me of whoever with my video call).
But he has mentioned and had pictures associated with my childhood and/or brother.
this is so good
fricken love them
best cover of this song ive ever heard!
Whoa, never knew they did this cover
I love their covers! they're all so great!
They slayed it. Excellent
A few particular lines remind me of two certain characters I'm quite attached to...an absolutely lovely song.
this is so amazing
this is beautiful. im in love
you guys might disagree but i like this better then the original
I love this so much ❤️
Good version
heyyy favorite band covering my favor song :-))))
this is perfect.
i think the reason i like this cover more than the original is because i listened to it first. so, i kind of have an affinity for it now, and the original one doesn't sound "right" any more.
And mat is amazing...
I wanna play this on guitar. Soooo good.
Buen cover !
No cover is better than the original at least you are Johnny Cash.
I love this so much omg ❤
