Roar of the Worlds Your Majesty, come walk with me; Tell me of your misery. Of darkened days upon thy realm, Men of maze; they fight for helm. She rules the waves in many ways Tis also true, she's had better days. Muck out thy yard and stable clean. Look forward to days of glory unseen. Coming common wealth and good as well; A sun to shine and time to tell.
This is perfect. I think it's the culmination of "the Missy Higgins sound". It's a combination of all of the previous sounds, wrapped up in something beautifully fresh. Lyrics are incredible. Video is wonderful. At least 2020 got something right.
I'm in tears watching this now, end of 2022, knowing everyone has already forgotten what it was like to see the animals roaming empty city streets, seeing the waterways clearing and the earth just starting to heal from its lengthy bout of Humans, watching each other find ingenious ways to help others and to show love to each other, proving finally that we aren't just a disease destroying a beautiful world, there's good in us too..then it was over and we are just us again. Not different, not better..just us.
Okay, I just wanna say that this one really hit my heart differently.. some people spend so much of their lives working and planning, so that hopefully eventually we get to live, at peace and comfortably. I think what missy is saying is that amidst the terribleness and the distain that’s come from the pandemic, it was also kinda nice to just stop and breathe for a second, for the people who are overhwelmed by their anxiety or social detachment. The machine being our parts in the world, our jobs etc and just wanting to remember “what it felt like to just stop”
I really really needed this today. I’m currently sitting in the state of Wisconsin in the US which happens to be a very hot COVID spot here.I’m completely worried about the fate of my country and more broadly the world,so needless to say I needed this.Thanks for the smile and I hope all of you stay safe!!! BTW, I loved the dancing.
@@SuperBingo96 unfortunately we had him as President during all of this. He had no clue what he was doing. The worst President we have ever had!! And that is saying something because we have had some doozies.
@@SuperBingo96 not sure where you are getting your info from but you should change your source. The virus did indeed come from China and they indeed did try to cover it up but Trump was not any better. He admitted he did not tell us it was airborne when he knew in January. Trump was acting just like the Chinese government if you ask me all for his own benefit. Now we have 325,000 Americans gone and hospitals over run with COVID patients. I’m 47 years old and that has never happened in this country in my lifetime. Facts are Facts are Facts. No getting around it. He is a complete failure of a leader.
Wow, I look back at songs like "scar" ,which I love to crank up in the car , love her and the way she have grown over the years, don't ever stop being Missy
You make the Australasian accent beautiful and something to be sung with. Before you, we had to sing like Americans. You've proved how beautifully our accents twirl through lyrics. Thanks to you, others have followed suit. I'm from Nz and can't wait to recognise the ripples of your talent. Thanks again, Missy xx
The song really nails thoughts kicking around in my head, but that lovely dance section in the middle really brought a huge smile to my face. It's all so much about the freedom to just enjoy being who you are. Delightful. Thanks, Missy Higgins.

This is so so good Missy. Lovely to see you back again... For what it's worth, I'm wondering the same thing and not sure whether I want the machine to start up again as it was before x
This is wonderful! Fabulous Missy and an inspired vid, an antidote for our times and a powerful nemonic for those of us that have lived through long COVID-19 lockdowns
Great video, great sentiment - thanks. Who would have thought a video about lockdown, shot in such confined space, could be so uplifting. BTW lockdown in NZ was the best pause ever.
When the machine starts up again Will I be chasing every car When the machine starts up again Will I continue outrunning my heart When the machine starts up again Will I be spinning all the plates Dancing in the mirrors Clicking all the bait When the machine starts Will you remind me I saw the truth once I saw it floating in the air When the machine starts up again Will I be snapping at its wheels Drinking down the voices Oh, and buying books on how to feel When the machine starts up again Will I forget what it was like To be standing here looking up Drinking in the sky When the machine starts Will you remind me I saw the truth once I saw it floating in the air Oh, don't let me forget Don't let me forget Don't let me forget When the machine starts up again When the machine starts up again When the lockdown ends And the speed is picking up Will you remind me, darling What it felt like just to stop
I'm going to be the odd one out...and probably cop some flack. It's very Americanised. I never thought I'd hear Missy sing with an accent from Brooklyn. Good song. And I love Missy Higgins, but it doesn't feel true to herself. Bring on the haters!!!
I felt that the end line of the song assumed that the listeners didn't understand the heart of the song. I like it when artists keep the audience guessing for the meaning as well, but it was still upbeat and a good song:)
Had never heard you sing. You had me after one beautifully sung sentence. Unique voice, important message. What's not to like? Go Missy! Hope to sing with you someday. Big love coming your way from me!
This is so good. I wanted to comment as so, but I am speechless. My wonder and special thoughts go out to you and your special people. Very appreciated all you continue to produce. 🤙😎
💯💞 Far out. You’ve gone and done it again. The way you articulate words we didn’t know we needed to say. I guess .. it’s coz, you know all the lines to say ;) thanks Missy 😊
I totally love this clip, many of Missy clips have seemed like she longing for something or stuck. Now she be happy pants and dancing and acting silly. Happy. Congratulations you deserve it all 🥰🤪🥳
Roar of the Worlds
Your Majesty, come walk with me;
Tell me of your misery.
Of darkened days upon thy realm,

Look forward to days of glory unseen.
Coming common wealth and good as well;

Yep, Missy, you're still a national treasure ❤️

It’s soo good to see her back, Australian music at its finest.
As an ER nurse, I really needed this. Always loved your music since I was young. Yet another one that is pure magic. Kudos.
When the machine starts up again can you please come to Melbourne. I need to see Missy for the first time please x
She lives in Melbourne, so id say you'll be in luck 😊
She lives in Melbourne.
Dance party at Missy's
And visit me!! In Geelong! 😎
@@Jayne_Maya I'm geelong too, saw her when she came to deakin I think it was :P
I think I just fell in love again
I hate that I still relate to this song a year later 😅 such a good tune
The dancing!
No words of praise or accolades are needed. They are present in you and your song.
In years to come people will listen to this song with a sense of nostalgia. Nice one Missy.

This was the best!! I giggled all the way through the clip. So bloody good! So great to hear new Missy music.

Stay strong. Hopefully things have hit rock bottom and we can only go up.
Best of luck from down here in Melbourne. The virus can be defeated - with the will and the right leadership.

I was thinking the exact same thing when I first heard this song!

Fabulous.
This is my favourite Special K ad of all time.
Hahaha!

Brilliant. Missy at her best. Straight to my heart, every word.
When all oppression ceases and the prison doors are opened...
Word of The Living God
Love this song 😝👍 I've missed hearing this talent & unique voice 💗🇦🇺🏄♂️🍹
I love her 🥺
You’ve still got it Missy....let it flow...😃
Great video, such joy

(And again and again)
Thank You for writing this. It will very soon.
Lovely Miss Missy

Nice one. 👍🏼
Oh my Gosh your music just continues to give. Love it 💕
So happy to hear some new music from you - and as always - it hits the spot. :)
Souls are priceless, and the devil is bankrupt!
My favourite song. How has this not had more views(88k in April 2021), even just from me alone.
Missy we love you in New Zealand 😭❤️

Oh yeah. Finger on the pulse. Thank you for giving voice to our thoughts/dreams/fears.
Missy, I love how you sit so comfortably into that lower register in your distinctive quality. It's one of my favourite things about your voice.
Aaah - oh that voice is still there - brilliant!!
This is so so good Missy. Lovely to see you back again... For what it's worth, I'm wondering the same thing and not sure whether I want the machine to start up again as it was before x
I hope so 😘
This is wonderful! Fabulous Missy and an inspired vid, an antidote for our times and a powerful nemonic for those of us that have lived through long COVID-19 lockdowns
What Tim said
"I saw the truth once, I saw it floating in the air. Don't let me forget"
Amen to that. Been there too
love the socks and dancing.
Love this!
still love it. My Fav Australian Act
Love her music, always tells it like it is ❤
Trippy
Timely. Clever.
Great video, great sentiment - thanks. Who would have thought a video about lockdown, shot in such confined space, could be so uplifting. BTW lockdown in NZ was the best pause ever.
Just amazing as always 💖💖 You're simply the best Missy Higgins! Lots of love from Germany 🇩🇪🇦🇺
"clicking all the bait"... love it! You're a true poet, Missy
When the machine starts up again
Will I be chasing every car
When the machine starts up again
Will I continue outrunning my heart
When the machine starts up again
Will I be spinning all the plates
Dancing in the mirrors
Clicking all the bait
When the machine starts
Will you remind me
I saw the truth once
I saw it floating in the air
When the machine starts up again
Will I be snapping at its wheels
Drinking down the voices
Oh, and buying books on how to feel
When the machine starts up again
Will I forget what it was like
To be standing here looking up
Drinking in the sky
When the machine starts
Will you remind me
I saw the truth once
I saw it floating in the air
Oh, don't let me forget
Don't let me forget
Don't let me forget
When the machine starts up again
When the machine starts up again
When the lockdown ends
And the speed is picking up
Will you remind me, darling
What it felt like just to stop
Go girl
Love to all in Melbourne xx thinking of you xcc
Love missy
Beautiful and Timely as ever Missy! Thank you for another beautiful song and a making the world a little brighter.
Love this :)
Such a question? Love this song and the video!!
I love this
Thank you
Mate words just seem to fall from the air and stick to you waiting for the music to turn up and finish the job. Goodonya.
HER SMILE AND VOICE FEELS LIKE HOME.....stay gorgeous
Just beautiful, I’ve loved you from day one. Keep doing you Missy. This song and video made me cry and laugh all at once💞
I'm going to be the odd one out...and probably cop some flack. It's very Americanised. I never thought I'd hear Missy sing with an accent from Brooklyn. Good song. And I love Missy Higgins, but it doesn't feel true to herself. Bring on the haters!!!
This should be the Global theme song for the covid-19. Still lovin' your work. The Old American Guy.
I needed that.
Super ⭐️
Yep I'll remind you
I felt that the end line of the song assumed that the listeners didn't understand the heart of the song. I like it when artists keep the audience guessing for the meaning as well, but it was still upbeat and a good song:)
Fantastic as always Missy.
Awesome song Missy !!!!! Love the clip too! So relatable for us all!!!!!
Had never heard you sing. You had me after one beautifully sung sentence. Unique voice, important message. What's not to like? Go Missy! Hope to sing with you someday. Big love coming your way from me!

Yay so happy you’ve got new music out!!
Hey Missy that was awesome - but you've gotta show us the bloopers.
I'm not crying - you are!
Hits the spot again ...your genius 👍🏻❤️❤️
Wow the last I'd heard of her was 11 years ago.
