    that pause in the second chorus when it goes "she said I was a first time caller" is just so freakishly amazing, right?

    Found this song while dating this one girl, after the break up had to avoid listening to it(because of the memories connected to it). 4 years later and here I am listening to it again and thinking back of the simple times...love this song.

    The band says that this is the their favorite song on the Big TV album. I'm glad that it's finally getting the right exposure as a great White Lies song.

    Been a white lies fan since the first album and love so much of their music which I listen to most days in my car. So many powerfully deep lyrics, amazing tunes and all round "me" vibes... I often tell people my favourite band is white lies, and I am yet to meet anyone who knows them without me introducing them!

    lyrics:
    "Darling, we're starting," she said
    We go live in a heartbeat
    Waiting for something in my car
    A little hope out of nothing
    And through the hum on the line
    She said I was a first time caller
    But a long time listener
    I've been waiting a while to talk to you
    She said I was a first time caller
    But a long time listener
    I've been waiting a while to talk to you
    Falling like trash from the sky
    I hit a patchwork of loneliness, crooked and wild
    Hung from the stars and dropped through the night
    To a heatwave and hard placelessness, neon and tired
    And I got nothing but time
    She said I was a first time caller
    But a long time listener
    I've been waiting a while to talk to you
    She said I was a first time caller
    But a long time listener
    I've been waiting a while to talk to you
    I want you to love me
    More than I love you
    Tell me if that's something you can do
    I want you to love me
    More than I love you
    Tell me if that's something you can do
    First time caller, long time listener
    First time caller, long time listener
    First time caller, long time listener
    First time caller, long time listener
    I want you to love me
    More than I love you
    Tell me if that's something you can do
    First time caller, long time listener
    First time caller, long time listener
    First time caller, long time listener
    First time caller, long time listener
    I want you to love me
    More than I love you
    Tell me if that's something you can do

    Loved the video... It doesn't have to be black and white. Some things are open for your imagination, for your feelings... Sometimes we have to see things with your heart, not your mind...
    The simmetry of some images, the letting go of a dream, the passed looking at us...The perfection in the strengh of fragile bodies and the dreams that we had whem we were young...
    Just feel and don't try racionalize everything

    I think these kids are like a family (there's the little kid looking up to them, they're always hangin' out and doing things together, the boy she kisses is like the head of the family I guess) but the girl eventually has to leave them because her passion/plans/future etc. lie somewhere else. After all she's the only one not practicing that gymnastics stuff.

    Uderzam w płachtę utkaną z samotności, nieuczciwą i dziką.
    Wisiałem pośród gwiazd i rzuciłem się w noc.
    W upalne bardziej sprzyjające miejsce, pośród neonowych napisów.
    Nie mam nic oprócz czasu - FAJNA PIOSENKA

    He is to attached with his demons, and its up to her to take him out. But that's just a bit hard, in our days. To truly find someone that can take you out from your head it is really hard. As for her, she is to afraid to make that step. She can only do so much, as she has to take care of her own demons. When you will get to a point to change your life with someone, you will need to make that risk, as everything is achievable with risk.
