Bleachers were last-minute replacement musical guest on SNL when the scheduled performer was canned for some reason and they absolutely crushed. One of the best SNL musical guest performances ever.
Absolutely loved that performance! But it's not on UA-cam anymore no?
@@bigsmiley6755 For some reason it was taken down. Both songs were great.
@@bigsmiley6755 Guess they didnt pay the fee.
@@bigsmiley6755 Pretty much all SNL live performances only exist on the SNL channel for 6 months at most. Contractual reasons for not doing it longer than that, could be extended via licensing if they wanted.
I’ve loved Bleachers since “I Wanna Get Better” and they keep getting BETTER!
@@tomhay5516 love that song!
Don't Take The Money is my personal fave! But honestly EVERY SINGLE BLEACHERS SONG IS AMAZING!
@@XTRACTION43 I agree!
The reason it sounds like that 1975 song is because Jack Antonoff (Bleachers lead singer) produced both
AND he’s on The 1975’s label now interestingly…
@@GhostOfEvermore they kinda became a lot more jazzier with the latest album and that's on jack.
@@GhostOfEvermore you know what... actually yeah the 1975 have hads songs like pressure, and have been using the sax since the beggining.
They are one of my son's favourite bands. He'd die of embarrassment if they became one of mine! He was going to a gig if theirs, and I was going to see the Wildhearts the same day. I jokingly said "oh, we could get the train together". He looked absolutely mortified at the thought! Proud mum moment. 😂
For those new to Bleachers, it's that east coast street corner bodega/New Jersey/footloose kind of sound. You have a lot of Springsteen, Van Morrison, Billy Joel type of influence mixed with the modern polish of Jack Antonoff, who prides himself on bringing that sound back. You'll hear a ton the Bleachers influence in the new The 1975 record, and more of Jack's influence in Taylor Swift's more recent albums from 1989-Midnights, some of Lana Del Rey, Lorde, etc. Highly recommend their album "Take the Sadness Out of Saturday Night" if you enjoyed this sound.
Are they more of a singles band though? I love a lot of the singles, but I'm struggling with the other album tracks, especially the ones that don't have this guitar / chorus feel. For example, Stop Making This Hurt, Modern Girl and Tiny Moves are so brilliant and nothing else seems to come close to them... Although I'll admit, I haven't heard everything just yet, but that's just my take at the moment...
@@curerbell Don’t Take The Money, Rollercoaster, Alfie’s Song, I Wanna Get Better are also great. I wouldn’t say they’re more of a singles band. Keep in mind, Jack Antonoff produces for a lot of big artists like Lorde, Lana Del Ray, Taylor Swift, The 1975 to name a few so sometimes the Bleachers stuff can be some side projects mixed with main singles. This is a bit of a slightly newer sound for them.
@@brendanpatrickmusic Thanks man, I'll check out those songs you mentioned, Jack is really talented I can tell. They've added some bonus tracks today from the latest album if you didn't know, I'm listening now.
Oooh i love that Bleachers finally came to your attention!! Jack Antonoff needs more highlights like this for his craft
Antonoff is my favorite producer working right now. I know that’s not a hot take of an opinion, but I love his sound and the way he works. I’ve watched all his studio videos and Mix With the Masters courses. The way he makes music compared to many producers today is inspiring. He really encapsulates Martin’s “studio as an instrument” ethos and uses a ton of vintage gear. I’m not mad that a guy like that is “the hottest producer in pop music” right now.
I basically get all my new music from Justin Hawkins these days.
I love me some Bleachers. Such an enjoyable band worth listening to.
04:46 ostinatooooo!!!!🙌
This is great. Reminds of 80's party music mixed with punk rock vibes with a dash of Cheap Trick in there. I love it.
Keep the shirt. It’s giving a lovely view of the new hawk, and looks comfy & soft.
I think it makes your hawk tattoo really pop! Kick ass! Also your hair is rockin. Appreciate your breakdowns of new tunes 😎
I thought it was a neck tie, think i need my eyes testing
Lol that’s a good one!
Awesome hair!
Bleachers are just the best. I'm a fan since the last album and I discovered a whole new universe. Jack Antonoff is just so great, he's a genius when it comes to writing and producing. Can't expres how much I've learned about producing just by listening to his tracks.
Bleachers have been my favorite band the last few years. Absolutely addicted to their album Gone Now, so unique and interesting. Springsteen joins them in their song Chinatown, pretty sure they've got a close relationship.. their music hits me where I want it to also, because they talk about shit I grew up feeling and experiencing.
It has that fun bass line like dancing in the dark.
That wink with the glasses bit ! HAHA I love this guy!
Love your music. Appreciate getting tuned in to new stuff
Fantastic! Love the saxophones! Thanks!
Love Bleachers! 🤩 Glad to see you giving them some attention! 🎉
What a great review! The bit about how musicians should wear (and adjust) their glasses more often just made my day - I love how down-to-earth, unconcerned with coolness, genuine, enthusiastic and supportive of others you are, Justin. It's an inspiration!
Bleachers is one of my all time favorite bands! So seeing you react and so many people listening to them (for some, maybe the first item!) makes me so happy!!
You are so enjoyable to watch Justin. I think you such a good natured genius. Thank you for being you!
Oh this is brilliant. Absolutely adore music with this vibe. Looks like I have a new band to listen to. Thanks for this, Justin. Another lovely video
I love all your content, but really love your song breakdowns the most. You are so good at it!
I love hearing stuff that might've otherwise passed me by. Awesome!
Bleachers is my favorite modern band by far, every record is incredible and so different from the previous ones. Can really see how Jack is able to produce for so many different acts and do it so well, he has an unbelievably deep imagination for music that he can make music with Taylor Swift and then have the depth to make something like this too. My personal favorites are Don't Take the Money, Wild Heart, Stop Making this Hurt, I Wanna Get Better, and How Dare You Want More. If you're looking for videos to react to, Jack made videos demonstrating about how he made Don't Take the Money and I Wanna Get Better on his own playing all the instruments in his apartment, it's really incredible to see as a layman and I'm sure would be fascinating for you as well.
I just discovered the Bleachers and they are AMAZING. Modern Girls is easily my favorite new release this fall. It's just such a party. On another note, I also just discovered your channel and felt the need to comment about how you react to the music video. It's a breath of fresh air with all the drama circulating about reactions. You do a really good job analyzing the video and we, the audience, actually learn new information about the thing you are reacting to. This is how reactions should be done. The discussions about music theory are really interesting.
Hi Justin Yes please continue wearing the very scooped neck t-shirt, it looks even better with the wonderful hawk tattoo flying over. I’ve seen Bleachers live and liked them. I agree with the points you made. I concur that Dirty Hit Records are releasing some interesting music that is contemporary but has qualities of the past. Another one in their portfolio, that I like, is The Japanese House.
Bleachers are a great band! Came across them a year or two again and adore their first album (think it came out in 2014 or 2015) I highly recommend giving that record a listen if you get some time Justin :)
Thanks! Justin, have you ever entertained the idea of starting your own record label? Why or Why not? Peace!
I saw The Bleachers at Coachella in 2018.. they were amazing! I became a fan instantly. Great band!
Justin please can you analyse your performance of Red Light Spells Danger you did with the Top Gear boys for comic relief back in 2007… would love to hear some back-story,cheers👍
The video and song have the strong vibes of that old Jackson Browne and Clarence Clemons song "You're A Friend Of Mind " and one of the nerds from Beastie Boys' "You Gotta Fight For Your Right To Party" video snuck in and sang. Good stuff. This is added to my list of bands to check out from this channel. It's getting long.
Love the shirt. The style and colour suit you, and nicely display your new ink ❤️🔥
You legend Justin! Thanks for putting me onto this belter! ❤
I just stumbled onto them last month with this song and Tiny Moves. Did a deep dive after that and man, I love these guys.
Awesome. I had not heard this song before and absolutely love it.
Yes I am really digging this tune with it's infectious energy, only heard a couple of Bleachers tracks before but if this is what their new record is going to be like I will have to listen to more. Also thanks for teaching me the term "Ostinato", I'm familiar with it but never knew it was called that - I love a good Ostinato!
The top still reminds me of Startrek, it's like something they'd wear for shore leave on a planet full of hot aliens...that's not a bad thing though.
Sounds amazing thanks for turning me onto these. The verse reminds me of only fools and horses but that adds to the charm I think 😂 looking out for more now
I agree! I heard tis song for the first time a few days ago. It's wonderful. I will definitely be checking out more Bleachers.
It reminds me of Billy Joel - We didn’t start the fire 🔥
just came across this song tonight. and its a great song! I can't stop listening.
Thank you mr Hawkins. You really make my day. 😊 It was a little bit rough for me this afternoon.
Love your top,keep it❤
Justin Fucking Hawkins Rides Againnnnn!!! 🔥🎶🎶🎶🎶
What a great happy vibe! It's so raw and real. Party time! It's has the potential to be the "Love Shack" of the 2020's. SM58's are a great mic. I've had mine for 20 years. My fave musical phrase is a triplet. Also Justin, I love that shirt. I like V-neck anything.
I knew the guy as a pop producer, but i did not expect this type of music from him as a musician, great work and great video by you as always
This is my favorite track at the moment. It's just so good. Cool to hear they are from New Jersey because this has so Springsteen written all over it, which is always a good thing.
I love that this exists as a complete opposite to Fantano's video, this song is dope and your insites were really interesting and gave me more appreciation for bleachers! Thanks!
Taylor's album 1989, Reputation, Lover, Folklore, Evermore and Midnights Produced by Jack Antonoff (Lead Singer of Bleachers)
I got hooked on Bleachers after both my parents passed very unexpectedly. The lyrics he sings on the album Strange Desire are many times about losing his sibling and it really spoke to me at that point. Helped me through some dark places with an upbeat rock album with some serious lyrics.
Amazing live show too!
Keep wearing the deep V!
Keep the man blouse
It's just 'blouse'. Lol. Keep the blouse. In the Marines, a shirt is called a blouse, for example.
Really? I’d give the Tommy Aldridge answer ‘Buy two-one to shit on and the other to cover it with!’ 😂
Sorry, Justin…love ya fella❤
I like the onesies. Sometimes clothing fights with us . My glasses fly off my face if I wear them playing drums .
@@glengamble526what a vulgar comment.
Got to see them in New Jersey at THE STONE PONY. They were fantastic. With Japanese Breakfast, who were also wonderful. Would love to see you break down "Be Sweet" or "Posing in Bondage."
hey Justin I really enjoy your show and i really need to thank you for introducing Viagra Boys they are my new fav band!
think modern girl and looking for somebody to love have been my favourite songs this year - definitely need more!
I still remember Jack from Steel Train. Very talented dude.
Reminds me of theme to Only Fools and Horses a bit
Bleachers have been my favorite band in the last five years! learned so much watching his videos explaining in studio all the choices he made for that song
471,000🎉🎉🎉
🎉🎉🎉🎉 let's to end the year in 500.000
@@raquelsnt Shouldn't be too hard 🙂
Love the deep V neck tee. It's got sneak-a-hand-inside-from-behind-and-going-for-a-hug kind of vibe. Also, that tee would look great with baggy corduroy wide legged trousers, topped off with a skinny, machine knitted silver lurex thread scarf. Got an Issey Miyake vibe about it, and maybe a Bowie-type Yamamoto look too "nice one" 🤗
this is my brain as i listened love this dude
LOVE the music - thanks for yet another awesome introduction to music 🎶 I otherwise wouldn't know about. LOVE the shirt - great colour on you, love to see more of your tattoos and, well, YOU - (the rock star/showman as well as the articulate, erudite musican with the dulcet voice).
The shirt *does* suit you. I'm also a bit jealous - do you know how tricky it is to find a nice *green* top - please don't "bin" it - (donate, always) - or you could send it to me 😉🙃 - (half joking, half semi serious - do I see some crossover, (which most of my fav tops are) plus colour, and fabric seems lovely as well - would ask where you got it from so I could get one too - but you're in UK - I'm in NZ - plus probably well above my budget)
Anyway - seriously top suits you - LOVE the music - plus your passion, your knowledge - awesome way to start my day - thank you ❤😘
Keep the shirt! This was an awesome look at what seems like just people enjoy playing because they know their screwed now. They can make it but the days of being obscenely rich as it could before the digital movement is what I’ll call it.
First time I've heard of this band,just listened to their song and I love it,so mad,upbeat and fun 👍 love that top on you, soo fit 😉
LOve your tshirt Justin...and I love that song....
Good song! It reminded to me to some old songs, but i couldn't say now what they are. But the first chords remind me something...
In other hand, i love every time you wear this t shir with v neck line, and now with your new tattoo fits really well. And i love it's color.
"Only you can wear
with that style
a v neck line tshirt"
Don't give it to charity! ❤️🔥
it's nice to see your left arm and your right arm look the same size ... not many people with tattoos achieve that success .... THEE intros you do are glorious
I love Bleachers. I've seen them 6 or 7 times live, and they consistently put on the most engaging shows.
Cool song...I've never heard of these guys before. Thanks!
Hey Justin, great review of a really uplifting song. I think it's possibly a Glockenspiel not a Xylophone though because it's metal (?) Enjoy the tour!
of course jack would have a Glockenspiel
Agreed. my favorite atm.
Not heard them before this is great I will be listening.
I’ve seen Bleachers 6 times and they are the funnest live HB and on the planet.
Love this review. Love this song.
When I first heard this it transported me back to the eighties when we always heard bands like Blondie, Talking Heads, Elvis Costello, Sparks, Roxy Music, Boomtown Rats, Jackson Browne etc on the radio and wherever you went.
it's got a bit of early Bowie going on as well. the melody of the "woo hoo hoo..." singing towards the end reminds me so much of another song but i can't put my finger on it. as soon as it started i knew how it would go. but i feel like it's a slowed down version...
I’ve never heard of this band or song but I love it!
Glad to have another legend to learn from
I love Jack Antonoff and the bleachers. Rollercoaster was the song that got me hooked on their music.
Love this song… hard to not feel up with this one
Thanks for the introduction to this band
awesome song! I love the Jason Mraz melody stuck on the back end at 3:32 with the sax. "i wont hesitate to heist to this song". i really do like this song...seriously....it is a well crafted and thought-out mash-up of various hits. The A and B sections are borrowed deeply from "The Boss", REMs "end of the world...and the killers. too many other nuggets to mention. It is a fact that the good borrow....the great steal. I do not judge! I do the same on the reg. i just wish I did it as well as this. **tips hat to Jack & The Modern Boys. (new band name for ya right there) =+))
Can't get enough of this, like Elvis Costello fronting the E St Band?!?
Reminds me of Donnie Iris - brilliant early 80s pop rock
This is one of my favourite songs right now. Nothing else sounds like it on Alt stations.
“We didn’t start the fire”.
So true about the 58s. My band has 5 of them, most are dented, and one of mine actually had the metal base crack. I just put a little gaff tape on it, and it still works perfectly
Have to love a band with double sax players. Jumping about whilst playing a sax can be difficult ask Leo P!
If you look closely he knocks his glasses off in the previous scene just before putting them back on. So there!
Keep the t shirt, looks great, if you can wear a catsuit you can definitely rock this
I freaking love saxophone, awesome song!
Yep, keep the top! Shows of the new tat nicely 🤘
Cool tune
Wear what you please good sir! I Watch for the personality 😁👍
That was just plain fun!
Yup awesome...
Love this band!
