When this song is playing while I'm out driving in NFS Hot Pursuit on a rainy night, it makes me feel lonely, desperate, and determined...and even a little sad. Bottom line: great song.
It's a perfect anthemic rock song with mood and feeling. That final double chorus where the drummer switches from a hihat to the crash, and the vocal line melody changes slightly giving extra room for an extra synth line to drop in. It's perfect, and gives me chills everytime I hear it.
I didn’t knew the technical reasons you explained so well, but I agree! I love this song, I listen to it when I want some chills too (and it reminds me of some troubles in my past, when it resonated so much - not for the lyrics, that I don’t understand completely, but for the melody and the mood).
Song still slaps in 2023, had this on my old ipod in 2011 and couldn't remember the band and another song flashed my memory. Took a few hours BUT I FOUND YOU
The best! And the lead singer is drop dead moody eyed sexy! His name escapes me at the moment but I’ve been desperate to see them in concert but they usually tour in Europe. What about us Florida fans?
13 years ago I've bumped into this song, it seemed extremely catchy vocally, I've replayed it an ENOURMOUS amount of times since that, and it always ignited some kind of a fire inside. 13 years later I've watched this video once again, sang all the lyrics and almost broke into tears for whatever reason
I've been racking my brain for 2 months trying to find this song and googling my vaguest memories. "music video of boy in quarantine" "music video of boy breaking from quarantine" "music video of boy liking a candy bar" "music video with weird basketballs" Until finally "music video of boy becoming chocolate bar" led me here. Close enough, right? Ahh it's good to finally find this song though. Back when I was in middle school and still watched cable TV and the call of duty series wasn't complete dog shit.
The same as me. It didn't take me 2 months though, just tonight. An E.T. video reminded me of this. "music video homage of e.t." "music video of boy experimented on and a chocolate bar" "music video of boy and candy bar" Then the jackpot, "music video with a giant candy bar". I was using Brave search though. I think AI maybe helped. More than a decade since I saw it. The ultimate Memory: Unlocked.
Who's listening in 2020? My Facebook memories showed me that I posted these lyrics a as my status 10 years ago. Ahhh, gotta love being a teenager. Absolutely did not remember this song at all
and, we are the chocolate for the monster that comes out the chocolate/stone & devour us, piloted by a beautiful fallen star that will give us the kiss of death as we are evicted from our body
I remember my brother showing me this music video for the first time when I was 10 and he said he thought the little boy looked like me. I thought that was the coolest thing ever for a 10 year old and I still think that till this day.
I've stumbled upon this song after many years and I found myself seeing this video from a different perspective. I think the story is about loving someone going through mental health issues. The boy knows what's inside the chocolate bar, he understands. But nobody else does. The boy is breaking but he will never stop fighting for her because he knows that one day she will come out of her "shell". Society doesn't understand that situation and neither do we. We learn how to deal with mental illness but we (both society and those affected) struggle to understand it because it's bigger than us. But when we see the children inside of us we can understand it better, because as children we see past the mental illness, we see people for who they are. This doesn't mean that it makes it easier, the lyrics and the boys action's in the video are contradictory because it shows what a struggle it is for the boy. But he stays. Until one day he manages to get the girl out of her shell and see what he always believed was there, even though nobody else did. The message in my opinion : Mental Health is bigger than us, nobody understands it, not even the ones suffering from it. If you are someone who identifies with the boy in this video, don't give up. You can see what society fails to see. You are a Hero
You took the tunnel route home, you've never taken that way with me before Did you feel the need for change? Apologies on your fingernails, love flickered in the city of lights, Like intermittent radio waves I don't need your tears I don't want your love I just gotta get home And I feel like I'm breaking up, and I wanted to stay, Headlights on the hillside, don't take me this way, I don't want you to hold me, I don't want you to pray, This is bigger than us You went where the horses cry, you've never taken that way with me before. Did you feel the need for change? Guilt smeared across your lips, I was tired and cold from the window You're tired, nothing's changed I don't need your tears I don't want your love I just gotta get home And I feel like I'm breaking up, and I wanted to stay, Headlights on the hillside, don't take me this way, I don't want you to hold me, I don't want you to pray, This is bigger than us
I never had a clear vision on the meaning of this song but i remember when i payed attention to it. I was discussing with an ex over a stupid topic but the things got really heated up and we started to fight but the breaking point was when she called me by someone else's name. I stopped arguing and i didn't know how to react, she apoligized and started to explain that it was some guy's name from her new job without me asking. I wasn't even listening at that point, i just told her "i'm going to take you to your house and i need some time to think" but she started crying and wouldnt get inside the car until she finally did. I remember that during the ride home, she was trying to apologize still but i didn't want to listen to her so i turned on the radio and this song came up with the line "i need your tears, i don't want your love. I just gotta get home and i feel like i'm breaking down". I cant explain it but thats what i was feeling at that time, i didnt want her tears explaining something that to me was obvious. I didn't want her love at that moment i just had to get home to cry. I was breaking down
Your experience has made quite the impression on me. Dramatic in itself and shocking and then fate plays this song on the radio for you. Reality is sometimes stranger than fiction. Your reaction to her calling you by someone elses name is (by the way) commendable. I honestly don't know how I would have reacted, but ending the fight and driving her home to break down and reflect - I am not sure I'd have reacted with such calmness and style.
High School, 14 year old me, broken heart listening to this while playing World of Warcraft at night. Never done homework, this on my mp3 tracklist along side with The Black Keys and The Strokes while travelling on the bus... Those were the days
[Verse 1] You took the tunnel route home You'd never taken that way with me before Did you feel a need for change?

I remember hearing this sound when I was 13 years old and forgot about it till the other day out of no where and I'm almost 25 years old. Crasy how a song can come back to your mind after like 12 years.
The exact same thing happened to me. Sometimes I just ponder all the music I must have forgotten and this time it reminded me of this song. So happy I found it again
not sure why. this song helped me. lost my son at 25 weeks and for some reason i had this on the car sound at the time. when i come back to it, the lyrics makes me think of him. RIP fella i love you my buddy. he wanted to stay.
This was a good reminder of youth with I was older 12 years ago. You're listening to oldies that aren't respected by anyone as "oldies". You are not old. Babies are babies . Children Are children. That is very easy the understand. ....wake up
I remember the first time I heard this song. It was my first day of college in 2010 and I made friends with this cute girl pretty quickly. On our laptops she showed me the daily free songs section of iTunes because one of her favorite songs was on there. There were a few songs available and this was one of them.
Been searching for this song for over a decade. I could only remember bits of the music video. So after scouring UA-cam for all the bands I used to listen to, I threw a Hail Mary into google “mid 2000s band chocolate bar music video” and it was the first result. I love the internet.
I have forced SO MANY people to watch this music video many years ago, what a fucking amazing song and video, I used to be so mesmerized by the boy actor he just sells the emotions so perfectly I was always so impressed with that just fits the song perfectly, I know it has like 12m views but this really deserves so so so much more at least in my heart its in the billions. I wonder if that kid is still acting today, if so I bet they're killing it! Sadly cannot find a name.
The way I understood this video is, that everyone wants to save this girl because she is a 'celebrity'. She's the face for this chocolate bar brand, and no one really sees her as anything more than that. Except the boy: he sees her for who she really is, and he loves her and wants her to be okay.
Gracias a uno de mis juegos favoritos el NFS hot pursuit fue que descubrí esta canción y a la banda y ahora es una de mis favoritas. Me regalaron el juego en el 2013 y con mucha nostalgia recuerdo jugar el modo conducción libre, recorrer todo Seacrest County, y llegar de noche a Mission Beach y ver los fuegos artificiales en la playa con esta canción de fondo. Un saludo desde México para todos los amantes de NFS hot pursuit y gracias hermanos de White Lies por darnos siempre tanta buena música!!!
First saw the White Lies supporting the Kings of Leon in Manchester must be 13 years ago, this track stood out for me on the day haven't stopped listening to it since, still means so much to this day.
When I discovered the band in 2009 when their first album came out, I was hooked..and amazed that they were largely unknown here in the United States. they've been a great band for over a decade. Still putting out great music
i had that game and i dont remember the song. i knew this one from other white lies songs, but might probably be one of the reasons i love this song or why i loved the game, that game had some serious sick songs
As much as I love this video as a whole. I gotta say, nothing beats that basketball part at 2:52 They're all just staring at the cameras like "Yes, we are wizards and this is basketball." Then right after that with that gr8 black hole drum/fog machine combo. Awesome music video, A+ job.
I found this song today on Spotify and I was absolutely in love. It felt nostalgic!! Then I went on my xbox and was playing need for speed hot pursuit remastered and then this song 🎵 started playing in game. So beautiful
And I feel like I'm breaking up, and I wanted to stay Headlights on the hillside, don't take me this way I don't want you to hold me, I don't want you to pray This is bigger than us
Well,the meaning of the video could be that people sometimes end up being a product of the industry or something that someone else created for them. Even if it starts as a small thing it grows with time and at one point becomes bigger than them and they get swallowed by the role they've been given. They get lost so much in it that they lose themselves and become it. And only people that are close to them and love them can show them what they've become and make them realize that they can go back or change. P.S. My English is kinda bad but I hope I made myself clear.
Have you noticed, guys that this is another video where Harry is a kind of a lifesaver or hero? He's like an angel that is coming for rescue. I think I get it. I'm a musician too, and I feel something like 'mission' though, to do something meaningful to the world. Even if it's just showing people through music some problems to consider :) sorry in advance for my English. hoping for some understanding. :)
When this song is playing while I'm out driving in NFS Hot Pursuit on a rainy night, it makes me feel lonely, desperate, and determined...and even a little sad. Bottom line: great song.
😮
11 years later, it's still being one of the bests master pieces in NFS, rn In the Hot Pursuit Remasted ❤️🔥😞
same
Back for more in 2024! Excellent choice alwayz!
Yeah, back for more Hot Pursuit because this song was part of the game's soundtrack
@@ralphlorenzperolino3054Yes! THE game!!
How has it taken me almost 16 years to discover this band???
I'm here now. Thank you
Same, but I discovered them in 2019, the best album is Big TV
must have not played Need for Speed lol
I'm jealous 😢
Someone told there was a video on youtube that was basically ET but with a giant snickers bar instead. I was hooked.
@@charleshager7189this is on it? I gave up on NFS after 2012 most wanted trash
It's a perfect anthemic rock song with mood and feeling. That final double chorus where the drummer switches from a hihat to the crash, and the vocal line melody changes slightly giving extra room for an extra synth line to drop in. It's perfect, and gives me chills everytime I hear it.
Very cool, checkout The Bravery and The Killers.
Damn straight
exactly! I love that final part
To think some of the pretentious Critics that shitted on White Lies. So called experts blind to greatness.
I didn’t knew the technical reasons you explained so well, but I agree! I love this song, I listen to it when I want some chills too (and it reminds me of some troubles in my past, when it resonated so much - not for the lyrics, that I don’t understand completely, but for the melody and the mood).
A pity bands and songs as good as this don't get the amount of recognition and acclaim they deserve.
Right
E.T
It got a lot of exposure through Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered
absolutely agree!
@@stephenoshea4207 LMAO the remaster was out on the Covid-19 era, 10 years after it's release
Song still slaps in 2023, had this on my old ipod in 2011 and couldn't remember the band and another song flashed my memory. Took a few hours BUT I FOUND YOU
❤
Funny enough I find out about this in a iPod I found. I still have the iPod but the battery needs chance.
...and 2024...🎶❤️
The best! And the lead singer is drop dead moody eyed sexy! His name escapes me at the moment but I’ve been desperate to see them in concert but they usually tour in Europe. What about us Florida fans?

The little boy's sincerity and the intensity of the drums makes me cry!
Alex Keith Same!!!
Alex Keith Strangely, I'm from Russia but I do not cry when I listen to this song.
Alex Keith 3:36!!!!!!!
JIyCh_ECHo TV cuz russians are strong, they dont cry even they choped their hand, vodka heals everything
I will tell you honestly, that think of Russians, not the truth.
And though at us drink vodka, but not as you will invent.
who’s still here in 2020 cause this song it’s just iconic?
Me. Thanks to Hot Pursuit
Me aswell cause of nfs hot pursuit
Me. This is my favorite song from white lies. I once cried on a crowded bus while listening to this song. So much emotion.
Good music doesn’t have an expiration date.
Hey
The Brits still continue to produce the most cutting edge music. Keep it coming.
From your friendly American descendant.
@B Babbich really ? That’s a joke right ? Bunch of crooners and boy bands and misogynistic rap garbage
I second this from a Welsh girly.
never lost a race with this one. this song hit different during night time trials too☹️

Who's back here because NFS: Hot Pursuit is getting a remaster!!!? Hell yeah!
bruh that nfs hot pursuit remaster is gay
I am.
I didn't know! I just like the song.
Best song on the track! Lol
I'm racing in my mercialago
I've been racking my brain for 2 months trying to find this song and googling my vaguest memories.
"music video of boy in quarantine"
"music video of boy breaking from quarantine"
"music video of boy liking a candy bar"
"music video with weird basketballs"
Until finally "music video of boy becoming chocolate bar" led me here. Close enough, right?
Ahh it's good to finally find this song though. Back when I was in middle school and still watched cable TV and the call of duty series wasn't complete dog shit.
I found out i just could hum it to google. Took me 10 seconds to find it. I couldnt believe it.
The same as me. It didn't take me 2 months though, just tonight. An E.T. video reminded me of this.
"music video homage of e.t."
"music video of boy experimented on and a chocolate bar"
"music video of boy and candy bar"
Then the jackpot, "music video with a giant candy bar". I was using Brave search though. I think AI maybe helped.
More than a decade since I saw it. The ultimate Memory: Unlocked.

I’ve been listening to this since I first heard it in 2011 :)
Jessica I’m 50 and remember hearing this on Sirius radio 10 years ago. Still a great song.
Mine too but I started with First time Caller
The chocolat bar is literally bigger than us
Fear not, together we can be bigger than the bar

Luigi Thebaud2 is literally smaller then ass :-)
OMG is this the best comment ever or what?
God damn it
6 years later, and this song still belongs in my top 10!
Fell asleep on a bus and this randomly came up and started playing
I cant stop listening to it.
Welcome to the fans club - 2024
That kid needs an oscar.
I feel like this is one of the songs that brings you back to your childhood even though it wasn’t from then
This song has this desperate sound, reminds me of the 80's.
cool, and you remind me of desperation
you put it well, Bas
Reminds me of a blend of The Killers and Muse
Sounds like a Depache Mode influence
I heard some Echo & The Bunnymen in it
That little boy is an amazing actor like what the heck
this guy has such a unique vioce! love it!
I remember my brother showing me this music video for the first time when I was 10 and he said he thought the little boy looked like me. I thought that was the coolest thing ever for a 10 year old and I still think that till this day.

I've stumbled upon this song after many years and I found myself seeing this video from a different perspective.
I think the story is about loving someone going through mental health issues.
The boy knows what's inside the chocolate bar, he understands. But nobody else does.

The message in my opinion : Mental Health is bigger than us, nobody understands it, not even the ones suffering from it.
If you are someone who identifies with the boy in this video, don't give up. You can see what society fails to see. You are a Hero
great explanation of your point of view, you gave me chills
Man. Thank you so much.
Dude it's just E.T. but with a chocolate bar
Holy shit you're right
Why the house is on quarantine?
Hot Pursuit 2010 was such an amazing game...
true also the soundtrack was amazing
Both statements are totally true :D
couldn't agree more
Precisely, I loved that game, so sad I sold my ps3, cant play it anymoreeeee D: D:

I first heard this song while playing the game Need for Speed Hot Pursuit .
yeah mate, i always listen this song in the night around the city.. is so.. so.. relax and speed up..
I usually aim for people in their middle ages so I can speed on.

You took the tunnel route home, you've never taken that way with me before
Did you feel the need for change?
Apologies on your fingernails, love flickered in the city of lights,
Like intermittent radio waves
I don't need your tears
I don't want your love
I just gotta get home
And I feel like I'm breaking up, and I wanted to stay,
Headlights on the hillside, don't take me this way,
I don't want you to hold me, I don't want you to pray,
This is bigger than us
You went where the horses cry, you've never taken that way with me before.
Did you feel the need for change?
Guilt smeared across your lips, I was tired and cold from the window
You're tired, nothing's changed
I don't need your tears
I don't want your love
I just gotta get home

After 7 years I still don't understand this video. Never mind, I still think this is one of the most powerful songs to this day.
Same here. It’s just epic and I don’t know why
The beginning is a scene from E.T....
ET
@@ingaprobst2980 so then what does it mean in ET?
@@kiavaxxaskew E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982) is a classic Sci-fi movie.
This was a good reminder of youth with I was older 12 years ago. You're listening to oldies that aren't respected by anyone as "oldies". You are not old. Babies are babies . Children Are children. That is very easy the understand. ....wake up
Reminds me of that scene where Elliot escapes with E.T. from the medics...

where they copied it from

Been searching for this song for over a decade. I could only remember bits of the music video. So after scouring UA-cam for all the bands I used to listen to, I threw a Hail Mary into google “mid 2000s band chocolate bar music video” and it was the first result. I love the internet.
I have forced SO MANY people to watch this music video many years ago, what a fucking amazing song and video, I used to be so mesmerized by the boy actor he just sells the emotions so perfectly I was always so impressed with that just fits the song perfectly, I know it has like 12m views but this really deserves so so so much more at least in my heart its in the billions.
I wonder if that kid is still acting today, if so I bet they're killing it! Sadly cannot find a name.
then there's me knowing this song cause of a Racing Game (NFS Hot Pursuit)
I've been looking for this song for too long
Srđan Simić wjere did you hear it ?
Lila Akari Corrales González
on the radio
Congratulations... You found it!
listening to this now makes me miss 2010 and that's not a white lie.
2010-2015 I miss my niece as a little girl. We'd play on the computer with her on my lap. She's 21 and moved away. 😥
There are choruses and there are big choruses. Brilliant
The way I understood this video is, that everyone wants to save this girl because she is a 'celebrity'. She's the face for this chocolate bar brand, and no one really sees her as anything more than that. Except the boy: he sees her for who she really is, and he loves her and wants her to be okay.
NFS Hot Pursuit brought me here :)
I with F1 - 2011
Me too.
Younbra123 H8TR haha me too :p
***** OMG me too! Nice to see someone still plays this awesome game :)
Nfs hot pursuit also brought me here
Gracias a uno de mis juegos favoritos el NFS hot pursuit fue que descubrí esta canción y a la banda y ahora es una de mis favoritas.
Me regalaron el juego en el 2013 y con mucha nostalgia recuerdo jugar el modo conducción libre, recorrer todo Seacrest County, y llegar de noche a Mission Beach y ver los fuegos artificiales en la playa con esta canción de fondo.
Un saludo desde México para todos los amantes de NFS hot pursuit y gracias hermanos de White Lies por darnos siempre tanta buena música!!!
First saw the White Lies supporting the Kings of Leon in Manchester must be 13 years ago, this track stood out for me on the day haven't stopped listening to it since, still means so much to this day.
Same, but in Edinburgh Murrayfield stadium. Can't believe it's been 13 years.
i just discovered this song in 2019. Nice to hear that!
Dank Google und meinem perfekten Summen, hab ich das Lied endlich wiedergefunden. 😅
4:04 the moment when sadness at first but happiness came after.
When I discovered the band in 2009 when their first album came out, I was hooked..and amazed that they were largely unknown here in the United States. they've been a great band for over a decade. Still putting out great music
After 10 years i'm still in love with this song 💙
clearly this is bigger than us. we shouldn't try to figure out what it all means.
covid 19
9 years later... I remember seeing this on MuchMusic. such a great song
neøn gravestønes yes when much music played proper music from all genres and not reality tv junk....sellouts
This was my best friend's favourite song before he died 4 years ago
Rest in piece Chris
Love that soaring, haunting chorus!!
Welcome back 80s we missed u
They're not 80s 😂
I love the boy in this. He conveys so much emotion.
Here from n4s remastered. Best song on the game!!!! When that chorus drops!!!!!!! Nostalgic!
I've listen to this a thousand times and I love it every time I hear it. On the other hand, I really want a chocolate bar right now
It’s 2019? I remember listening to this song when I was 6 years old enjoying Hot Pursuit
i had that game and i dont remember the song. i knew this one from other white lies songs, but might probably be one of the reasons i love this song or why i loved the game, that game had some serious sick songs
This kid is such a good actor!
I use to watch this on MTV Music videos after school. I miss the vibes this music use to give me back in high-school 😢
E.T. and an 80s vibe! Youre going in my favorites.
I knew this songs thanks to Need For Speed Hot Persuit, and since then (2010) I'M OBSSESED WITH THIS SONG!
Same here👌🏻
same
Same
omg me too!!!!
ME TOO!!!
This song deserves so much more views!!!
hooly I remember seeing this on MTV maybe five years ago and I was never able to find it again, but here I am.
2019 and still loving this song
As much as I love this video as a whole. I gotta say, nothing beats that basketball part at 2:52 They're all just staring at the cameras like "Yes, we are wizards and this is basketball." Then right after that with that gr8 black hole drum/fog machine combo. Awesome music video, A+ job.
idk why but this song really just does it for me
Staying up all night on a School night, playing Need For Speed Hot Pursuit... really takes me back.
I found this song today on Spotify and I was absolutely in love. It felt nostalgic!! Then I went on my xbox and was playing need for speed hot pursuit remastered and then this song 🎵 started playing in game.
So beautiful
From 3:37 to the end : My favorite part of the song
EVI B. Exactly
And I feel like I'm breaking up, and I wanted to stay
Headlights on the hillside, don't take me this way
I don't want you to hold me, I don't want you to pray
This is bigger than us
They played this at their concert in Mexico 09/20/23 and it was fucking awesome,
Well,the meaning of the video could be that people sometimes end up being a product of the industry or something that someone else created for them. Even if it starts as a small thing it grows with time and at one point becomes bigger than them and they get swallowed by the role they've been given. They get lost so much in it that they lose themselves and become it. And only people that are close to them and love them can show them what they've become and make them realize that they can go back or change.
P.S. My English is kinda bad but I hope I made myself clear.
good insight
That actually suits the video really well, nice one!:)
Just watch the movie ET and you'll get it.
your sentences are a pain in the ass
no alien there as i can see
This chorus is like rocket fuel.
I remember watching this as a kid on MTV and its haunted me since..
"And I feel like I'm breaking up, but I wanted to stay" on repeat in my head since this morning...
I like this song. Ever noticed it sounds just like an 80's song ? Like many of the new songs today.
I was thinking the same thing, sounds like Joy Division.
Sound like joy division and depeche mode
It's called post-punk revival
Has a bit of a Tears for Fears' sound to it."cant remember the song exactly
Kinda reminds me of the cure
I love the fuckin' earth shaking chorus! Just so powerful!
covid 19
Makes me feel like super saiyan Goku
@@zarcos-tz4zs fake
Best White Lies song EVER
there are many more...
Best song EVER - Full stop
When it came out so many years ago I wondered about the huge amount of power inside the melodies...still killer !!!!
Have you noticed, guys that this is another video where Harry is a kind of a lifesaver or hero? He's like an angel that is coming for rescue.
I think I get it. I'm a musician too, and I feel something like 'mission' though, to do something meaningful to the world. Even if it's just showing people through music some problems to consider :)
sorry in advance for my English. hoping for some understanding. :)
