    It's one of many highlights on the album. The lads are on top form here! Thanks very much for posting this, can't wait to see them in the UK in February. Why this album isn't on any best album lists for 2018 is a travesty.

      Oh my god it is definitely my favorite :) I ve seen them in Paris in March, it was awesome. They 're such amazing musicians. It was a shame that they did not play so many songs from the new album though.

    When they played this on jimmy Fallon the singer was air drumming and I found it hilarious. I kept watching it to laugh at his stage antics but then I kept watching because it’s a pretty great song. Good job lemon twigs!!!

    Love this and saw them live, which was a brilliant experience, never to be forgotten, but I have people telling me they [maybe not all] might have fireworks on their fingers, to use a metaphor, and I'd like to think that's not true, cos I'm a mum and I worry, I just put it down to natural ability.

    One day in spring, it was gym class
    That was the only class Shane passed
    He was scaling the rope
    Some cool kid cracked a joke
    Oh man, he was mad, it was like his ears smoked
    And I saw Shane, and everyone was pushing him
    And you could really feel his pain
    And then before you knew it
    All of a sudden there were these flames
    A fire started in the school
    That took a hundred lives away
    Life is real tough when your parents
    Don't want you
    Life can be tough when your girlfriend
    Don't want you
    Daisy was his last hope
    But she thought Shane a big joke
    "Well we'll see who's the big joke when
    That school goes up in smoke!"
    And I saw Shane, and everyone was pushing him
    And you could really feel his pain
    And it was right then
    You started to see these, like, flames
    A fire started in the school
    That took a hundred lives away
    And oh whoa when he struck the match
    To make the big payback he said
    "Shananananananana"
    He thought, "We're all so wrong"
    And he cried alone and he went
    "Shananananananana"
    And the girl and the kids
    And all that his parents did, he said
    "Shananananananana"
    Ooh he thought, "We're all so wrong"
    And with this he'd finally have won and baby now
    "Shananananananana" Oh no no
    But it increased the pain, poor poor Shane
    "Shananananananana"
    Poor poor Shane, poor poor Shane
    "Shananananananana"
    But it increased the pain, poor poor Shane
    "Shananananananana"
    And he ran and he and he ran
    And he ran and he ran
    And he ran
    He increased their pain
    "Shananananananana"
    And the kids and all that his family did
    Just to increase the pain
    And then he ran away
    Life is can be tough when you're
    Life, life is so tough when no one wants you
    Life is real tough when just about no one at all wants you

    I don't know... I miss the old days when they traded instruments. Michael was so much fun on drums & I enjoyed the way their set's broke from one to the other. The new guys are great musicians, but I'm just not feeling it. I honestly still like their first release "What We Know" the best (although they hate it.) It's a lot more experimental, psychedelic & fun to me, but that's my favorite music.

    • @maxhoe
      @maxhoe 5 років тому +2

      both the rhythm guitars are also lead parts, i mean when they're both playing lead parts and solos it could become a real daunting task to keep the guitars in tune.

    • @beatlebum7057
      @beatlebum7057 4 роки тому

      @Joe Casson well lead guitars tend to do much more string bending and use the whammy bar which throws a guitar out of tune much faster than just strumming chords. I think that was his point.
