Wild Beasts is my no.1 fav band. Their sound like the destiny for my ear. They're different and always be cool and do what they want to do...the result is amazing. I hope their new album's gonna be awesome again. Not hope they'll be!
These are the lyrics, as far as I can tell: We’re decadent beyond our means We’ve a zeal We feel the things they'll never feel The solemn in their wealth We’re high in our poverty They see the things they never see The wanderlust With us the world feels voluptuous I just feel no wanderlust It’s a feeling that I’ve come to trust Now that you answer to me I tell you how I wanna feel Now that the walls have been broke I tell you how I wanna feel The wanderlust With us the world feels voluptuous I just feel more one with us It’s a feeling that I’ve come to trust Don’t confuse me with someone who gives a fuck Funny how that little girl (or gold?) buy a lotta luck Don’t confuse me with someone who gives a fuck In your mother tongue what’s the verb to suck
I saw this band first time on Jules Holland few years ago and honestly thought they were crap. Recently I saw them on the same show performing this track and was mesmerized by the sounds and thought yes that's what you call Wild Beasts! Tune!
such an incredible song..I've loved every song they've ever put out..digging this one for its darker undertone(I've listened to it 10+times today)...love the music video too, pretty intense..the last few minutes is definitely my favorite part..the ending makes me cry lol I'm not sure why either..would love to hear different interpretations for the song/music video
Been watching this on "Insomniacs anonymous" 24/7 channel for few weeks now-so totally grown on me. Annoys me that even at 2am the "powers that be" feel they need to remove the "f" word even tho its so plainly obvious & necessary to the power of the song. i added the f-word after the 1st listen!! Much more fun. Beautiful pure voice. Men with voices like that always get my vote-and that background is divine. Prob a lot of fans wont agree here but I do think its dark,but in the same beautiful way that "Hurts" songs are dark-its the tone of the voice & the gorgeous melody behind it, yet the lyrics & emotion,the ideas & the visuals expressed set it way above a "pop" song & get it into edgier territory- love it switching into that higher register and the theme showing what fragile beings we are. Mainly cos of all the crap we do to each other! Beautiful touch with the doves-does that mean there may still be some hope 4 us?? Hmmmn-jury still out I guess. Love it - gr8 job
"Wanderlust" We're decadent beyond our means, we've a zeal We feel the things they'll never feel They're solemn in their wealth, we're high in our poverty We see the things they never see Wanderlust With us, the world feels voluptuous I just feel more, with us It's a feeling that I've come to trust Now that you answer to me I'll tell you how I wanna feel Now that the walls have been broke I'll tell you how I wanna feel Wanderlust With us, the world feels voluptuous I just feel more, with us It's a feeling that I've come to trust It's a feeling that I've come to trust It's a feeling that I've come Don't confuse me with someone who gives a fuck Funny how that little pound will buy a lot of luck Don't confuse me with someone who gives a fuck In your mother tongue, what's the verb to suck? Don't confuse me with someone who gives a fuck Funny how that little pound will buy a lot of luck Don't confuse me with someone who gives a fuck In your mother tongue, what's the verb to suck? Don't confuse me with someone who gives a fuck Funny how that little pound will buy a lot of luck
Superb music! Discovered them at the fly awards on thursday, their act was amazing. Try to listen to it without watching the video which disturbs the beauty of the song in my opinion.
im pretty late to this, found while just kind of looking for more new music. kind of like a modern depeche mode/bowie kind of thing with like a dash of arcade fire. i really like these guys.
Ace that this has over 200,000 views! For anybody reading this comment who wasn't aware of Wild Beasts until they saw this - it is, in my opinion, not even one of their best songs. Yet, it's great. So, go and listen to their previous albums.
Wild Beasts were bloody good. Gone, not forgotten. Kendal isn't a bad place to fade into obscurity. X
I'm going to miss this Band
Glad that I got to see them four times live. Always brilliant
Introducing a new lover to this band is a special kind of delight
Mate that is the funniest thing I've heard in ages.
Wow. I’ve rediscovered this song for the first time in 8 years. Still such a banger. Thank God I randomly remembered it today
I go every 3 for years or so and something all the sudden reminds me of this song and I find my self back here
Sameeeeeee here
Saw these guys in my hometown just before they called it quits. So glad I seen them.
Wow man so dope
I have seen them too but I can't remember much and I wish I can... they are amazing.
Wild Beasts is my no.1 fav band. Their sound like the destiny for my ear. They're different and always be cool and do what they want to do...the result is amazing. I hope their new album's gonna be awesome again. Not hope they'll be!
2 million views and only 11K likes??? This was a banger then and a banger now! 😁
HIS VOICE IS GOLDEN.
Am I the only one who feels like crying when listening to this? Can´t wait for the whole album.
the first three times I watched the video I cried during the last 2 minutes every time..so intense
the whole song is great, but from 2:20 onwards is especially incredible
Joshua Dirk amazing !
Yessss
🤘🤘!! And how delectable it would've been to have experienced them, esp. performing this passage, LIVE!! *entire being melts*
Wild Beasts are back at it! Wanderlust.
The opening blew me away - and then, well, yeah, the usual, physical pleasure of new music by Wild Beasts.
This song is magical.
I think I have listened to this song over 50 times already...
I have yet to hear a single note of this song or see a millisecond of this vid, and yet I already know I'll love it...
It is amazing! The whole album. Sounds exactly like a continuation of the three previous works.
Every single time I listen to this, I am completely taken in. Take me back to the 02 where they absolutely smashed it.
Absolutely brilliant..........perfect show opener! I cannot wait!
These are the lyrics, as far as I can tell:
We’re decadent beyond our means
We’ve a zeal
We feel the things they'll never feel
The solemn in their wealth
We’re high in our poverty
They see the things they never see
The wanderlust
With us the world feels voluptuous
I just feel no wanderlust
It’s a feeling that I’ve come to trust
Now that you answer to me
I tell you how I wanna feel
Now that the walls have been broke
I tell you how I wanna feel
The wanderlust
With us the world feels voluptuous
I just feel more one with us
It’s a feeling that I’ve come to trust
Don’t confuse me with someone who gives a fuck
Funny how that little girl (or gold?) buy a lotta luck
Don’t confuse me with someone who gives a fuck
In your mother tongue what’s the verb to suck
Funny how that little pound (England's currency) can buy a lotta luck.
That's what I'm hearing.
Only Hayden would use the word voluptuous in song lyrics, they're just incredible
Here I am, listening to this jawdropping piece. AOTY for sure.
What a brilliant song. I liked Two Dancers a lot but I've had this on repeat for the last week.
I've had this album for a few days now, and what an album it is. Great piece of work from the guys.
I saw this band first time on Jules Holland few years ago and honestly thought they were crap. Recently I saw them on the same show performing this track and was mesmerized by the sounds and thought yes that's what you call Wild Beasts! Tune!
Wild beasts are pushing things forward again, what a song!
Constantly evolving they have succesfully taken their sound to a new high
Almost 4 years since i listen this song on your concert. Was simple amazing.
4pm this Saturday afternoon, The Electric Picnic Festival, Ireland, ill be watching these guys live :-)
Magnificent music, magic voice..
beautiful
on repeat all mornin' ...
It's been an all day loop for me. Even at work, found them through UA-cam today and I can't get enough of their sound. Lyrics are weird though.
*I miss you guys...*
Amazing music!
The more I listen to this, the more I love it.
So far this is the best track of 2014
Good to have you guys back!
Crikey I'm absolutely loving these.
Brilliant and it keeps growing on me. Present Tense - can't wait.
Excellent
February 24th needs to get here now! I can't wait! This is the best band out.
This song is amazing. Best indie album of the year imo
Just...wow. Many happy returns

This video is crazy and really well shot. Everything looks so pretty.
Voluptuous, love love love it, unrestrained pleasure to the senses indeed!
This is gorgeous.
Masterpiece, the song and video both.
Very fine band these guys.
Cannot... wait... for this album.
Epic & Dramatic - takes it from where Smother ended to deliver us to a higher level. We are grateful to the Wild Beasts.
Live the electro vibe, great tune, roll on the Dublin gig
Great song

Incredible..best band around
Love these guys

"Wanderlust"
We're decadent beyond our means, we've a zeal
We feel the things they'll never feel
They're solemn in their wealth, we're high in our poverty
We see the things they never see
Wanderlust
With us, the world feels voluptuous
I just feel more, with us
It's a feeling that I've come to trust
Now that you answer to me
I'll tell you how I wanna feel
Now that the walls have been broke
I'll tell you how I wanna feel
Wanderlust
With us, the world feels voluptuous
I just feel more, with us
It's a feeling that I've come to trust
It's a feeling that I've come to trust
It's a feeling that I've come
Don't confuse me with someone who gives a fuck
Funny how that little pound will buy a lot of luck
Don't confuse me with someone who gives a fuck
In your mother tongue, what's the verb to suck?
Don't confuse me with someone who gives a fuck
Funny how that little pound will buy a lot of luck
Don't confuse me with someone who gives a fuck
In your mother tongue, what's the verb to suck?
Don't confuse me with someone who gives a fuck
Funny how that little pound will buy a lot of luck
^ shameless name plug
The most unnervingly beautiful song since.
After watching this, i feel like i have been spoken to, at depth, about something very important.
Love it. So looking forward to this album. Two Dancers is one of my favourites of all time. One of the most underrated bands around.
i think it's the best song of this band
so good! i love wild beasts
and Wild Beasts love you =)))
Puro amor!
a stunning return
What can I say... WOW!
such a great song!
so beautiful it hurts!
Superb music! Discovered them at the fly awards on thursday, their act was amazing. Try to listen to it without watching the video which disturbs the beauty of the song in my opinion.
Absolutely blows me off
Amazing.

Fantástico
Quite the motivating song.
Amazing album in my collection!

Wow... Thank you
There has never been a more beautiful delivery of the word 'fuck.'
This is just awesome. Another superb track in the Present Tense. Can't wait.
My new favourite song. I am arriving late to the party I know (But I saw them live in 2014) ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful!
im pretty late to this, found while just kind of looking for more new music.
