"This is not what you wanted, not what you had in mind" Damn, gets me goosebumps every time.
gave me goosebumps just reading that
I have goosebumps over my goosebumps!
i have goosebumps on my balls
"The story is set in and around London / England in the year 1966 and features a descendent of the English aristocracy who turns from being an ambitious young man into a ruthless power broker."
I like weird thought-provoking music videos like this. Way better than watching the singers try to look cool.
100% Agreed
Substance!
Yeah. Totally. I couldn't say it better myself. I recommend "Gnarls Barkley - Crazy" on YT.
Agree.
This video makes me feel like I’ve taken drugs. Like, a LOT of drugs.
Lyrics:
Here it ends
No one’s gonna shed a tear
No need to shout
Just to stand the silence
well spent time
In the early morning’s haze
You sit and wait
Watching full glasses through blank eyes
This is not
What you wanted
Not
What you had in mind
Vacuous winter stare
Worn out version of yourself
To tough to fall
But not strong enough to turn
This is not
What you wanted
Not
What you had in mind
Sky F1 brought me here. 10 secs of that phat intro baseline was enough to hunt it down and now love the whole song.
I've heard this album in full already and good lord it is another one to add to the list of great 2013 electronic albums. Many of the songs draw on Burial's sounds and UK Garage in general, but there is still the distinctive Moderat sound. Amazing production.
UNKLE at their best don't touch this genius.
This is absolutely mesmerizing.
This video really is a powerful piece of art. Both the song and the video are works of art. Quite the achievement!
Don't think i'll ever get tired of this song; Perfection if i ever heard it!
God I love this track. it embodies exactly how I feel about our global society. "This is not what I wanted and Not what I had in mind." POWER TO THE PEOPLE
What people?
Not all "people" is good people.
And many of the corrupted ones were part of "the people" in the past.
I prefer "power to the wise ones".
I wished someone made a movie out of this in the exact same style (blue-lined illustration). A young, ambitious British aristocrat teenager who wishes to escape the system of power and cold-heartness just to see himself finally turn into what he hates most, a ruthless and criminal industrialist who finally pays for it, losing all he had.
AT THE MOMENT THEY HAVE NOT RIVALS ON THIS GENRES OF MUSIC HONESTLY... ONE OF THE BEST ELECTRONIC SOUND YOU CAN LISTEN AT!!!
whoever drew these cartoons is amazing!
I'm glad we all agree.
This band is amazing. Sonically beautiful and just so much funk/power/strength.
Love both albums so damn much.
genius
"I've known it since I was a kid..." this song brings me memories of things I never lived.
THANK GOD IVE ACCIDENTALLY FOUND IT =0
+Le big mac Are you me? I've been listening to UA-cam music mixes for 5 days trying to get this to play lol
+1
10 years and still it's like hearing it for the first time!
I recently went to an interpretation of 'An Ideal Husband' by Oscar Wilde(in NTgent, in Belgium) and thinking about it. This music video actually touches some similar ground. The main character even looks like the actor who played Robert Chiltern in the play. What a coincidence.
Such a crush on this video/song. Subversive and pop is the proper combination.
"Too tough to fall, but not strong enough to turn"
Just came back from seeing their show in Montreal, it was epic! They opened with this incredible song, there was a 3D screen projecting this excellent video, and everyone was just BLOWN-AWAY!!! And yeah, he was singing soooo gooood :)
Keep coming back to this.
Fantastic video...5/5
True. And weirdly nauseating.
How about you people. Are you who you want to be?
Your comment made me spiral into an existential crisis.
Who watches the watchmen?
I needa unplug and think for a while.
i am on my way !!!
I'm sure the first 20 seconds of this video just gave me Epilepsy!
Amazing Tune and Visuals.
I remember seeing Modeselektor and Pfadfinderei live...best show ever. But I always preferred the music of Moderat...sooo...this is the best of both worlds!
this bass line
distorsion + 200 %
pitchfork is not a lable, they only showcase different artists
Seit Release! Immer wenn ich mir zwischen ne spirituelle Session gönne kipp ich da rein und finde dass Sie no nen perfekten Flow für nen 1-Move-hat. Also von Start bis Ende alles voll geschmeidig ;D
wieder ein tolles Video ,so wie Rusty Nails . Unglaublich..guckt man sich gerne an und hört man sich auch gerne an ! Einfach GEEIL !!!!!!!!!!!
I'm 99% sure it's Apparat, it does sound a lot like him, especially when you listen to his vocals on his "The Devils Walk" album. I think he's progressively been working more and more on his vocal style and skill during his time as a producer, definitely sounds like him, and definitely sounds great.
You've tempted me. So here you go!
Thanks to Future Music for guiding me in this direction. The video of Moderat in the studio got me intrigued. This is a fantasic tune!
OK, this is great, thanks for the upload, lovely!!! Saw them live in Copenhagen, wonderful!
SMS 2013. Und dass nur um euch sehen zu können :) Daaaa Wahnsinn
[Verse 1]
Here it ends
No one’s gonna shed a tear
No need to shout
Just to stand the silence
[Verse 2]
(A) well spent time
In the early morning’s haze
You sit and wait
Watching full glasses through blank eyes
[Hook]
This is not
What you wanted
Not
What you had in mind
This is not
What you wanted, oh
Not
What you had in mind
[Verse 3]
Vacuous winter stare
Worn out version of yourself
Too tough to fall
But not strong enough to turn
But not strong enough to turn
But not strong enough to turn
when I realized there was a new moderat song out, I told myself id wait til the album dropped...almost 20 listens later, i'm finding the best punishment for my impatience is to keep hitting repeat,
What a great clip. They really should have put also a big sign of 'Monsanto' in it.
only 4 years catching up. hey! a new rekindle of a talented artist. this guy is madder than mad. hands down the best vid I've seen, since the 80's. yeah! i'm old but back then they told stories, as this one did. and it's appropriate for these times. spot on I'd say!
I felt like I was in a film noir movie, so awesome.
probably the best FM modular synth i ever heard
Moderat + Pfadfinderei = Wicked music & visuals
Könnte ich Stundenlang hören, mal wild mal langsam gespielt... Wahnsinns Track
watching this video high is quite an experience. Amazing.
that illustration is fantastic!
Gold. Energie des le matin. Mystique.
Totally worth the long wait for it ! Can't wait for the album to drop in my mail box now.
No!! Why stop making such excellent music? :-(
This is going to be the best thing to come out since the last Moderat Album. Epic
Awesome that Moritz is an illustrator on this aka Siriusmo
Trying to find the "DARK" version of this song! *I WAS HERE*
May-gold version
the Dark version lead me back to this song... thankfully.
the best song if you wanna go to bed... and then right after you wake up!
Always a devious delight ending the run/workout or sitting chromecasting overhead.
Man the intro is intense !!!
Feeling good in the best kind of way with MODERAT ~
strzelę sobie w stopę z radości. Już nie mam siły bansować!
I love IT so much...replay all the time ♡
This song mixed with this video made me think, I just realised what a terrible world. This song made me rethink my whole life!...
How can this masterpiece only have 400,000 views???
yeah man.. The Warehouse Project in Manchester on the 11th of October..
Pure awesomeness! Can't wait for the new album!
i feel like i've been waiting for the new album for my whole life! thank you, moderat!
LYRICS
HERE IT ENDS
NOONE’S GONNA SHED A TEAR
NO NEED TO SHOUT
JUST TO STAND THE SILENCE
(A) WELL SPENT TIME
IN THE EARLY MORNINGS HAZE
YOU SIT AND WAIT
WATCHING FULL GLASSES THROUGH BLANK EYES
VACUOUS WINTER STARE
WORN OUT VERSION OF YOURSELF
TO TOUGH TO FALL
BUT NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO TURN
THIS IS NOT
WHAT YOU WANTED
NOT
WHAT YOU HAD IN MIND
Moderat is fucking awesome, where is their new music!!!!
Wow, the art in this video...
made my Friday... my Saturday..... my month..... my year!!
Never seen such a talented music video before. Masterpiece!
This video and song goes perfectly together!
which of them is the magical man with such a gorgeous vocal?
this song is magical
Props on the music & the awesome animations in the video! Gets people thinking! Thank you!
Cant believe ive only just heard this. Amazing track
2021 год , это супер!!!
I'd kinda like to see an animated series about this music video, seems like great material for a pretty dope story
You can never leave the corruption and greed.
Yes, yes, and furthermore, yes.
Браво!
Very nice and mellow tune.
My bro has good taste
Such a great song.
can't stop listening to this!!!
I wish this was a real comic...
Actually is an intriguing story.
I hope come to Mexico again friends!! awesome and await the full album!!!
can't wait for the vinyl!
I AM SO IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG!!!!
Great song!! Can't wait to hear the rest!!
The lyrics and theme of this song are very relevant to BB. I was thinking of trying to make a fan video set to this song but I have no idea where to start.
VIDEOCLIPE POLÊMICO... ÓTIMA COMBINAÇÃO DE INSTRUMENTOS MUSICAIS E VOZES... ÓTIMA MIXAGEM E EQUALIZAÇÃO DE SOM...
This is the best tune in 2013 so far!!!
any song that can make me feel like i wasted my life, and cry, is a +1000 for me. the end.
Unforgettable song. Thanks.
Charles Burns is doing this style to perfection
Absolute top track but, when we we ever LEARN!!?
Absolute amazing...
brilliant.. tank you moderat & Pfadfinderei
this video/song makes you think, love it
OMFG, this is so good!

Looking forward to this follow-up record. The debut was great.
