When this song came out it had been 6 months since the death of my little brother. It was a horrible car accident, and I showed up at the scene… The first time I listened to it, I broke down, I listened to it in a loop for hours. I cried and cried, I never listened to it again. Here I am over a year later, and it still so hard to listen to but it’s such a beautiful song.
I cried like a baby when I heard this song for the first time. I haven’t cried in years, certainly never because of a song I have no real connection to. It speaks to Alt J’s ability to write beautiful music. The reason I love these guys so much is that they stay true to their authentic selves when they write; it’s not always an instant fix when you hear a new song but when you take the time to really listen, it ends up pulling you along on these just really brilliant, delightful rides. One of the most important groups of all time in my world. Thanks Alt J.
Hallelujah I'm listening to a recording of you sleeping next to me A cappella I'm listening to you cover Elliot Smith's "Angeles" It's these times I'll need if you go It's these times I'll need if you go, so Get better, my darling I know you will Get better, my darling I know you will Get better I'm drawn to the motorway The cold whoosh of trucks passing This nighttime under sodium light The orange spread is soul-quietening A younger you and a younger me Meeting at The Serpentine I am yours, you are mine Happy birthday Staff smuggled in a card I made It rests under your pillow When out of ICU You'll cringe at all the 'I love you's The card retired the life of one biro At this time, I wanted you to know At this time, I wanted you to know Get better, my darling I hope you will Get better, my darling I hope you will Get better I'll start the day with tiramisu Raise a spoon to frontline workers An underfunded principle They risk all to be there for us A younger you and a younger me Meeting at The Serpentine I am yours, you are mine You were the baker I'll christen this new era With the smell of freshly baked bread Your Nutella, I'll keep it in the cellar You were always a fan of that spread Six months on, there's a car crash outside The fire brigade using the jaws of life No flush at night to sound your return I still pretend you're only out of sight Front garden bouquet, I threw it at the fire brigade I was admonished and told to go back inside From the living room window I stand and watch the white sheet go Over the family car and I close my eyes I still pretend you're only out of sight in another room Smiling at your phone I still pretend you're only out of sight in another room Smiling at your phone I still pretend you're only out of sight in another room Smiling at your phone I still pretend you're only out of sight in another room Smiling at your phone I still pretend A younger me, a younger you Meeting at The Serpentine The beginning of spring, you wore those yellow ripped jeans Your look defined my 2009 Your shyness stoked my boldness "Shall we go in?", I smiled Your hand warmed walking through the gallery I know I will (Get better) My darling, I know I will
Dancing and hugging in the kitchen in soft morning light with the love of my life. I am currently relapsing in my eating disorder, whilst trying to navigate our relationship healthily. We’ve been in a dark space since we had a car crash in February, us both going through hell in man ways. We are both sobbing in hope and hurt and warmth. Thank you for this.
This song was released as I lay next to my bf dying from what we finally found out was a rare brain disease and it really hit me hard. I love this version so much & I’m also a big Elliot Smith fan so I dig the reference. I’m sorry for whoever it was you lost. Wishing you love and peace.🙏🏻💜
∆ "I still pretend, you're only out of sight in another room, smiling at your phone I still pretend..." Sending strong hugs to everyone who's lost someone they love ∆
The day this was uploaded/ released was the day I found out someone I loved deeply died of an overdose. It has been a difficult time coping. But today I heard this song and for some reason, some how it brought me a smile and feeling comforted. Your voices are so comforting! So thank you for this moment of smiles and good memories.
I just discovered this beautiful song and amazing band only minutes ago...flash-forward to right now and I'm streaming tears in my bed after not being able to cry for a while. Thank you for this song. I hope I get better, too. 🩵
This is different than most ive heard by them but very nice. Every other freckle is a masterpiece -so subtly sexy and rhythmically building & affectively tensive
Well, they’re not dead, so they could always switch it up again. Saw them live last spring and they played 90% awesome wave tracks, so it seems like they know that’s their best stuff.

God Bless you, I can't imagine that pain, but I'm extending genuine love to you, and prayers as well.

I still cry everytime... every damn time.
Real
"I still pretend, you're only out of sight, in another room." absolutely incredible. Thank you for this.
This line gets me every time
*you're
@@FEARmeify corrected; I was too emotional at the time to worry about that. Song caught me all the way off guard.
"Your look defined my 2009'" just reeks of glorious poetry too though, right? As much of this song does. Almost therapeutic.
This lyric reminds me of a poem called “Death is nothing at all” by Henry Scotland Holland.
This is the saddest song I know, and somehow, it makes me feel better.
Hallelujah
I'm listening to a recording of you sleeping next to me
A cappella
I'm listening to you cover Elliot Smith's "Angeles"
It's these times I'll need if you go
It's these times I'll need if you go, so
Get better, my darling
I know you will
Get better, my darling
I know you will
Get better
I'm drawn to the motorway
The cold whoosh of trucks passing
This nighttime under sodium light
The orange spread is soul-quietening
A younger you and a younger me
Meeting at The Serpentine
I am yours, you are mine
Happy birthday
Staff smuggled in a card I made
It rests under your pillow
When out of ICU
You'll cringe at all the 'I love you's
The card retired the life of one biro
At this time, I wanted you to know
At this time, I wanted you to know
Get better, my darling
I hope you will
Get better, my darling
I hope you will
Get better
I'll start the day with tiramisu
Raise a spoon to frontline workers
An underfunded principle
They risk all to be there for us
A younger you and a younger me
Meeting at The Serpentine
I am yours, you are mine
You were the baker
I'll christen this new era
With the smell of freshly baked bread
Your Nutella, I'll keep it in the cellar
You were always a fan of that spread
Six months on, there's a car crash outside
The fire brigade using the jaws of life
No flush at night to sound your return
I still pretend you're only out of sight
Front garden bouquet, I threw it at the fire brigade
I was admonished and told to go back inside
From the living room window
I stand and watch the white sheet go
Over the family car and I close my eyes
I still pretend you're only out of sight in another room
Smiling at your phone
I still pretend you're only out of sight in another room
Smiling at your phone
I still pretend you're only out of sight in another room
Smiling at your phone
I still pretend you're only out of sight in another room
Smiling at your phone
I still pretend
A younger me, a younger you
Meeting at The Serpentine
The beginning of spring, you wore those yellow ripped jeans
Your look defined my 2009
Your shyness stoked my boldness
"Shall we go in?", I smiled
Your hand warmed walking through the gallery
I know I will
(Get better)
My darling, I know I will

Your voice will forever make me feel better 🥺
Who me? Shucks thanks.
I will be honest. I clicked, because the man at the keyboard looked like Vector from Despictable Me. But now I am staying for the music
That's so f*cking mean but I see it 😭 poor Gus

So sorry to hear about your loss...what is the Elliott Smith reference?

Amazing song. I cry every time I listen to it alone
I cannot get enough of this song and I cannot get enough of this version. There is a mixture of sadness and beauty.
This song is so beautiful really makes you well up with tears.

I can feel Alt J so deeply inside. Love them so much! 🎶 ✌💜
One of the best songs ever made
That old school camera affect is awesome
One of my favorite alt j songs. So important
I really enjoy how he lays some of his lyrics on the beat. Like a painter to a canvas. Shines more so on other songs than others tho
The day just got better
Their music is so important for me I can't even describe the feeling
Fair play keeping it together when singing this heartbreaking masterpiece!! 😭
i wish there could be more songs like this.
it's so beautiful and so sad..
You guys have always been there for me through the bad times and the good, thank you.
Thank-you for this beautiful work of art!! I absolutely love singing along with you Alt-J ❤️🩹🇨🇦
Was backstage on open air Tbilisi listening to y'all and tripping balls, one of the best experiences i've had period~
Senza opporre resistenza, lasciando andare e trattenendo perché attraversati. Musica e testo meraviglioso.

They can never go back to their glory days of an awesome wave. They peaked there
doesn’t matter, the music is still good
@@ifonlyicould good but not as amazing as they were back 10 years ago
Well, they’re not dead, so they could always switch it up again.
Saw them live last spring and they played 90% awesome wave tracks, so it seems like they know that’s their best stuff.

this is the third recording of this song in this room, they just switch shirts and go again
sun sound 😎😎😚🙏
Is anyone else thinking about Ricky Gervais “Afterlife” while listening to this song?
Shoutout to Louis Theroux on the keyboard. Man can't just rap but sing and play as well!
🥺🥰
It's good to know Victor Perkins is as good a vilain in Despicable me than a musician.
What mic does he use ?
I lost my twin….I will sing this to her at her grave.

Keyboardist looks like Graham Coxon joined Alt-J only for this session.
