Still the most underrated song of the last 10 years
2 yrs on & I have to still agree! 😊
More a cult hit than underrated now imho. The whole album has its place in history
facts
truth
Sources ?
this is one of those songs that make you feel nostalgic for something that probably never happened. for a dream you once had, or just for a particular way the sun shone at that one day when you were a child.
one of those few songs that make you feel like this. remarkable.
what are the other ones?
so true, fucking remarkable!
Yes yes yes that's exactly it
Who.... are you? 😳
Saudade.
Evokes the same melancholia and 'the future that never happened' feelings that some of Burial's tunes do so well.
Surely the most late-night-London sounding track ever? Magnificent
Absolutely
@@200swilson There was Never by Orbital, a quite memorable track from 2012
One of my favourite lyrics which makes me reflect:
‘I always thought you were holding me back but - it turns out you were just holding me together’
"Men who drink in A-road pubs and rave flyers all lost in the same sea" - such a good line.
I am the only one who reminds..... the vibe of Pet Shop Boys "West End Girls"?... both are great tunes.
I'm in my 40's and i heard this track for the first time on Irish radio a few days ago ... My God, when i heard the melody to this ingenious track, it made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up! The feeling of hope, being alive and so many other emotions came home to roost while i sat in my car. These guys are very talented and gifted musicians. Although the vocals are very catchy while giving you those feelings of going though life's trials and tribulations, i would love to play an instrumental version of North Circular over and over again... Thank you.
One of my favorites of all time, ill play this at my wedding or something important like that.
I'm glad Jamie xx listens to good music
I found this without jamie xx
well done
Sounds a lot like the Pet Shop Boys
Also here after quickly typing in the lyrics from one of his Boiler Room sets...
@@morgankelly9725 Neil from Pet Shop Boys is a big fan
For some reason when I listen to this, my whole childhood in Paris flashes before my eyes, memories of a time I had my parents with me and a time I was innocent. Very nostalgic song for me, even though I only heard it for the first time a few months ago. Can't explain it, it's like I've known this my whole life.
How old are you now?
+spinct83 omg i got the same feeling. nostalgic and like ive been listening to it forever. i cant get it out of my head right now
+oil88 in my thirties
spinct83 same here, in my 30s, and I feel the same as you do, although this song was released last year.
happens the same to me, it puts me in a nostalgic mood, that's why i love this song
The sound of the UK. This song always brings me nostalgic memories about my life in the UK.
I'm 22 and this reminds me of a huge road trip I took with my friends 2 years ago. They came from Edinburgh but picked me in London. We then went from London across the channel to France, then Andorra, Spain, France, then Italy, Slovenia, Croatia (Festival for a week), then Slovenia, Austria, Germany (2 friends went back home after), Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, took a flight to Milan (my ex gf was Italian and I met her on this trip), then back to the UK. Man I want to do that again! :)
Thanks for triggering such good feelings.
hope you enjoyed your time in slovakia
Jamie XX sends his regards. Damn this is amazing. The video, the tune, all of it
Remi ds me of the good times I've had when i go down to london.. no feeling like it.
Perfect song. Reminds me of times when I was like that. Making decisions and thinking about what I am gonna do in life and with myself. Being with my friends. Learning how sensitive I am and how difficult is to live life. Being here since the start. Thank you !
Literally never gets old, one of the best songs ever
New Order + Pet Shop Boys (West End Girls) and all that wonderful new wave sounds of the 80s that will never die. 80s/90s - the last golden age of music.
thought the exact same thing! glad to know im not the only one! :)
This might be one of the most underrated tracks of the past 10 years without a doubt. Absolute perfection. thank you Real Lies
I Love this song !! Greetszz from Amsterdam
love this track. Lots of 1991 feelings with some Mike Skinner too. VIBEY
this is it
Just gives you that feeling doesn't it
Huge track, really really good. I think the pad, the chords sample, is taken from "Chez and Trent - The Meaning".
woah this sounds like its from the early 90s, brilliant.
Reminds me of 2013 Seoul.....5 am.....just finishing up at the club and heading to an after-hours rooftop lounge.....looking out at the skyline.....having another drink to cheer on the coming dawn.
Seoul :) can't wait to go back.
Heard this on BBC Radio 1! Such a great track!
Takes me back to London. This song etched 2014 into my brain.
that north circular, i grew up by it, this song brings back so many vivid memories. i can almost feel the exhaust fumes fill my lungs. this is a gorgeous, gorgeous song which i will always treasure.
It's sooo The Streets style! Great!
today i became fan of this band. better late than never. what a diamond.
Love this song , this style , this flow. Greeting from France
Got this full blast in Germany 🎉
this song resonates with me and my feelings toward the heavy break up I've been reeling from. thank you for it.
+larven i'm going through a breakup and this is cheering me up.
+Daniel Almeida we got back together a week after this comment. I hope your love life is better. :)
Daniel Almeida yeah I get by :D glad to hear you're doing well mate
you too my friend!
Great discovery thnx to Neil Tennant of the Pet Shop Boys! He's stated it as one of his faves earlier this year. Great, very fitting video to such an atmospheric tune!;)
Mindaugas Kliukas that’s how I found this track too ! Thanks Neil !
It produces some similar vibes with Pet Shop Boys as well ;)
I can't stop posting this track on Facebook, to show people what kind of damn good music I listen to!!! Keep it going!
This could be straight off Original pirate material by the Streets. Awesome stuff! This is what we've been missing!
This song makes me feel so bliss i need more like this, any recs??
Earl Sweatshirt -- Azucar
Ulises Valadez Contreras - Everything Was Beautiful, And Nothing Hurt
Frank Ocean - Blue Whale
Aphex Twin - Xtal
Real friends-DJ ædidias
I hear New Order with some chord changes and pure splashes of absolute brilliance. TRUTH!!
Pet Shop Boys too!
Quite 'Burial-esque' tinged with the sensation of hearing 'Unfinished Sympathy' all those years ago on the Metropolitan Line with the signal fading in and out....
one of the best songs
This is a modern day version of That’s Entertainment- these boys are genius-
Massive track, only just found this through Spotify's "Discover Weekly" playlist :)
Snap - it works great!
Will this band PLEASE release a second album? I've been waiting, hoping, for too long!
This takes me back to last Summer, listening to a Jamie XX mix outside while reading a book in the sun...
Hégesippe de la Boétie Jamie XX brought me here...
Vimal Tandan Me too its wonderful.
What was the Jamie XX mix man?
+Vimal Tandan What was the Jamie XX mix man?
+Joseph Daley Jamie XX - Boiler Room Set from Young Turks HQ
10 years ago I spent a year in London. Recently I came back for a week and on a night bus, I played this track on my headphones. A tear came down...
Majestic
Great great great song, reminds me of the pet shop boys! It feels me with joy that music this good can still be made these days! Bravo.
This is wicked
Can’t believe it’s been 9 years… timeless
7 months later and still love this !! Keep up the amazing work. Greets Yuri
They're going to be HUGE!
This is Art
man, London is such a chill place.
you don't live there :')
Callum Leak maybe not chill, but definitely special.
Jamie XX played this a couple minutes ago, this is amazing!
yeah!
what mix was that on ?
Damien Gaffney his takeover on benji b's weekly show
I can't even drive but it takes me back to falling asleep in the back of car, ally pally fireworks, green lanes McDonald's drive thru, shopping with mum to Brent Cross hungover, Jack daniels and coke, the lights on the A406, the lights, being young and the coolness of the back of the passenger seat against my temples
❤🎉
This reminds me off stumbling drunk through the streets with my friends from one club to another and then to another until its 5am and the sun is coming up
Perfection and icon xc
Amazing! Was waiting for this a long time! Played the BBC preview over and over
Love this, I play it over and over again
come to Ireland and play at Electric picnic !!
tune of the year so far
Heard this on R1 and instantly thought of The Streets. Great tune!
Love it !!
I'm 32 in America and this touched me deeply. Thank you I will respost.
Still love this track just as much as i did when I first heard it . This is an anthem now.
Locked out, like a dog in the rain
Bag on my shoulder and a pocket full of change
To bus's mercy in the early morning light
What did you do on Saturday night?
Please take me back to where I used to be
The road we used to share together, you and me
I can’t say for right or true or wrong
All I can say is I know where I belong
Post-ice, family of white lines and The Irish Times
The men who drink in A-road pubs and rave flyers
All lost in the same sea
I hear them say it’s all yours, maestro if you just give in to me
Give in to me
Suicide bridge and the morning watch
The royal fumes and fate wires and the things that pick up and kick off
And the roar of the spit on the roads, the central reservation
The rapturous players at the petrol station
I love the smell of the fumes coming through the window
But you always rolled the window up
So I’ll have a cigarette and play with the crescendo
I never knew but I had to give it up
These days I'm the wrong side of the window
Thought I saw your place, you didn’t let me in, though
These days I say sorry a lot more
Never sure if it’s the bailiffs at the door
But I still walk the same road at night
Watch the same rain melt the same lights
Bag on my shoulder and a pocket full of rage
How many late nights does it take you to change?
Always thought you were holding me back
But it turns out you were just holding me together, well
I'm making a moves, yeah, I'm big time, crashing though
I'll walk for years in the hills of a hero
Suicide bridge and the morning watch
The royal fumes and fate wires and the things that pick up and kick off
And the roar of the spit on the road, the central reservation
The rapturous players at the petrol station
Come down over the hill, the lights in the distance glimmering
All shiney lit up for me and a little for you, too
Or so I thought
Or so I thought
These days I'm the wrong side of the window
Thought I saw your place, you didn’t let me in, though
These days I say sorry a lot more
Never sure if it’s the bailiffs at the door
But I still walk the same streets at night
Watch the same rain melt the same lights
Bag on my shoulder and a pocket full of rage
How many late nights does it take you to change?
This is so incredibly fucking good.
We love Real Lies!
love this
sounds kind of like the streets "weak becomes heroes"and malcolm mclarren's "jazz in paris" mixed together
+Jan Bauer not that it is a bad thing. I like it a lot.
+Jan Bauer YES
Jan Bauer Glad I wasn’t the only one who thought this. Kind of invokes the same feeling in me, too.
it is just amazing," how many late night does it take you to change?? "
always reminds of weekends because of that what did you do on Saturday night line
...so lost in the same sea...awesome tune...awesome lyrics....
this sounds really good...greetings from Argentina
U know bro ;)
Just discovered this tune! Epic!!!
my favorite track and my favorite team . And how the urban melancholy is shown in the clip is worthy of respect. BRAVO
🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
Forgot how much in love I am w this song
My English is not good but I felt nostalgic fellings about my childhood even without understanding of words
Thanks again! This tune has got me through some 'times'. Much love from New Zealand
unbelieveable...more emotion than Weak Become Heroes...and that's saying something.
"Always thought you were holding me back but, turns out you were just holding me together, what?.." This is unreal folks. A defining moment in the sub culture. Fantastic track and lyrics. I really ought to research the author further.
locked out / like n'gog in the rain
dirk kuyt on my shoulders / and a suitcase of cocaine
to Swansea's mercy / in a relegation fight
a regretful ronin/ into this saturday night
please take me back / to where I used to be
merseyside derbies / and the roar of PSG
i cant say / for right or true or wrong
but even at Bolton / I never truly belonged
Nailed It
+Joshua Dickinson yes..
Loves it.
Jamie xx played this at his single launch party at Young Turks HQ in London! Such an amazing song
Makes me dream.
When The Smashing Pumpkins' 1979 kids grew up they were driving to raves listening to this tune.
No they weren't
Still my favourite song of all time
Real Lies you are always awesome
