I was thinking the same. If you turn the sound off, JH could be a surgeon and him and his team are telling you what they're going to do during a very delicate operation.
Two for Nero was the first EE song I listened to - met them through Spotify on the Wild Beasts Station! I love their whole discography but Man Alive is simply a jewel. I can't ever get tired of it, everything sounds great, the lyrics are amazing, production on point. You can almost feel how connected the band is and it's magical to hear everything working together so smoothly. Oh, and Tin has to be my favourite EE song ever. It's simply perfect. Actually, it's my favourite song, together with Weird Fishes by Radiohead. Both bands are a huge inspiration to me, as a musician ❤ srsly, thank you very much Everything Everything.
Gorgeous album from start to finish. Intelligent, thought provoking, intense, grandiose and so much more. Progressive Pop/Rock with a futuristic flavor
So I remember sitting in a flat in London, playing on my little DS humming all these songs, not really knowing that songs even HAD meanings but loving the music and its sound whenever they were played in the car or room. And there is me now, appreciating the meanings so much and even crying at times (Final Form) when I listen to these masterpieces and really seeing the emotion and finally being cool with listening to the whole entirety of Get To Heaven; I always liked Cough Cough a lot but something about it always bothered me a bit and I think it was the lyrics because I thought it was saying something along the lines of this "bad" being fine but now I like it even more knowing the reality.
I remember the very first time I ever heard this band. The Very first song that literally hooked me the first time I ever heard it, and buy hooked I mean on the entire band without hearing another song, was Kemosabe off your “arc” album. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. The video blew my mind in ways that most people wouldn’t ever think. Because literally we are walking upside down from the minute we are born and I thought to myself, either this gentleman knows what’s going on or he’s gotten extremely fortunate and doesn’t know it. Lyrically it is spot on. Either you know the meaning of “life” or I am a monkey‘s uncle. I found many of your other songs extremely esoterically prophetic as well. Name a song and I will tell you what it means. You know what you’re talking about it’s too bad only 1% of the whole world population could understand it or appreciate it. Just behind John Mayer, everything everything has become my favorite musical artist. Well done Gents!! Bravo. PS-if it were ever possible I would love to possibly talk with all of you. I know that sounds lofty, but other dreams have come true and it never hurts to ask. Cheers mates!
Awesome debut LP, awesome live band too. Really great to know that this standard of creativity and intellect is around and has managed to rise through all the manufactured 'product'. Really wish you the best with it all - you make the world a more beautiful place :-)
Recorded early in the morning, hm? Looks like you need some more sleep or a just a comb? Really love your songs - and your great live shows! Had a chance to see you 3 times now. Great! And like the dark voice of Jonathan while speaking .. he could even read out of a telephone book I would listen to it.
hmm I seem to have seen this already....did you have in one of your emails a while ago? but owell, its lovely to see your faces again :P and great job on the album btw, it's great. I think weights is my favourite, or mabye two for nero...hmm its tricky...
I love you guys, i love your music, i'm serious, you're on my top 3 favorite bands with the beatles and imagine dragons, but i think you're better than imagine Dragons LOVE YOU
If I'm not mistaken, they saw a Metallica documentary wherein James Hetfield or someone mandated that they all wear scrubs for the duration of the recording/ writing process while in the studio. He described it as "digging deep": possibly an extension of the metaphor of "putting your heart in the song" or whatever. Very cool guys (them and EE).
I Like you guys and discover you at a keane concert.bought the album as soon as it came Out: one remark only. When you don't speak STOP STARING AT THE TABLE! it seems that someone is DEAD! look at the camera show how gorgeous you are.....
Your every ounce an element sleeping, a part of you just never quite receiving, I wanna be the one to get in.But the only way you tell me you're certain, to draw asunder every leper curtain, would be a hail of every flower to ash. And when every attosecond means nothing, and all that you believe in isn't working, I can't begin to tell you I know. And in 20,000 years they trawl the seaboard, but all that's washing up there is a keyboard, yeah they piece it all together from that.
lool kind of reminds me of vivaldi who stopped everything to write his ideas down -he even ran ran out of the church during a mass and he was the preist...
how can a man with such a deep soothing voice actually sing at a higher pitch than any male singer I listen to?!
Falsetto bb
awh ye boi
A truly excellent band. Some of the most intelligent music and lyrics that I have come across in recent years.
3.46..... The guitarist looking at him thinking, "What you on about" .... 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I’ve never noticed that before 😭
Who else is on a quest to find a video where michael actually talks.
Ben Young Ever get anywhere on that journey?
Oh fuck, I have seen him talk with Higgs in an interview and I can't remember where, he's actually very incisive, I'll have a dig
Summer Six Aisle interview he speaks on there I think.
Funny I just came from a vid like that: th-cam.com/video/wlWb_QZuh9Y/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/rWaCnQKwSF8/w-d-xo.html Bam found one
I wish he would have talked about the meaning of Suffragette Suffragette. The lyrics are so intriguing.
He keeps dodging it. Every single interview. I'm convinced I'll never know!
@@SaynaTheSpiffy Who's a gonna sit on your face when I'm gone? Who's a gonna sit on the fence when I'm not there...
The bit when Jon makes the Coldplay comment and Jeremy makes a face nearly broke my heart #WhenTwoFandomsCollide
I can’t stand Coldplay either. I don’t know why, they just sound generic in my opinion.
By that point Coldplay had truly sold their soul to pop. Duets with Rhianna and the like. Our generation's U2
Why is Jonathan dressed as a nurse :P
Hehe, awesome video, found it very interesting :D
I was thinking the same. If you turn the sound off, JH could be a surgeon and him and his team are telling you what they're going to do during a very delicate operation.
Best band in the world - mark my words....
They're up there with the best of them, no doubt.

Damn, that is one dark and calming voice. I'm gonna listen to him speak the next time I feel stressed out.
Amazing lyrics! I wanna a video like this for Arc too...
Love these guys sooo much :)

every band should do this!

Michael "Speak!man"
Amazing album! Photoshop Handsome and Two For Nero are probs my favs
Airbrush!
+1687angel I like Final Form tho..
It's really great to hear the meanings of each chart and how they came to be :)
Awesome debut LP, awesome live band too. Really great to know that this standard of creativity and intellect is around and has managed to rise through all the manufactured 'product'. Really wish you the best with it all - you make the world a more beautiful place :-)
Alex just looks like he's thinking 'Jonathan, what the hell are you on about?' half the time :p
nurse jon
"holy sh-
oh my goodness"
Fetus Jon!
This is really interesting to watch. And Man Alive is one of those albums you just never get tired of. Hope they do this for Arc too...
love this band...
you are a winner at life, congratulations and internet kudos to you.
This was so helpful!! Great record. Don't think it'll truly be recognised for a while but it's a magnum opus.
this is beautiful
Thanks for doing this guys
I didn't think that you guys were so serius!
Great video anyway!
I just want a second album.I really ,really do.
soooo nice love these guys !!
Just getting into them now and they have come far lol. Even this album is great though, started out strong
That deep dark beautiful voice 0.0 - Bloody hell and his singing falsetto voice
Love you guys and love this album!! Harsh on my other favourites Coldplay though 💔😂
Recorded early in the morning, hm? Looks like you need some more sleep or a just a comb?
Really love your songs - and your great live shows! Had a chance to see you 3 times now. Great!
And like the dark voice of Jonathan while speaking .. he could even read out of a telephone book I would listen to it.
Love that PJ & Duncan comment
I love you guys!!! :D
Two for nero is a miracle song; incredible that they almost didnt do it
hmm I seem to have seen this already....did you have in one of your emails a while ago?
but owell, its lovely to see your faces again :P
and great job on the album btw, it's great. I think weights is my favourite, or mabye two for nero...hmm its tricky...
Come to Argentina, please!
Ah I'd love to hear all your old demos. I loved Airstrike on Your Forehead, so interesting how much it changed when it became MY KZ UR BF.
Brilliant just Brilliant (Y)
I love you guys, i love your music, i'm serious, you're on my top 3 favorite bands with the beatles and imagine dragons, but i think you're better than imagine Dragons LOVE YOU

goats amazing album
reminds me of Gentle Giant; love the irregular beats, very unusual
Re watching many years later. Pretty much certain that they all chose to look really bloody bored all the way through as a joke!
3:44 "What the hell are you talking about?"
I Like you guys and discover you at a keane concert.bought the album as soon as it came Out: one remark only.
When you don't speak STOP STARING AT THE TABLE!
it seems that someone is DEAD!
look at the camera show how gorgeous you are.....
@GeoMcEvan It would of been way more funny to watch him talk about every song on the album with his high singing voice! lol
These guys are the next Radiohead and no one seems to realise.
absolutely, what a shame. One of the most innovative music I've ever listened to
I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR THE BEDROOM DEMOS! how do i make this a reality?
I loved this shirt style hospital vocalist, can anyone help me find it??
Are you guys doing one of these for Arc?
They all look so bored there
They look like they just woke up :---D
They're just British
@Bunji2k6 It's my fault really, I should said "3rd from the left". I'm sorry. I love you.
No I think he means the drummer, Michael Spearman. You are talking about Alex the guitarist.
Your every ounce an element sleeping, a part of you just never quite receiving, I wanna be the one to get in.But the only way you tell me you're certain, to draw asunder every leper curtain, would be a hail of every flower to ash.

And in 20,000 years they trawl the seaboard, but all that's washing up there is a keyboard, yeah they piece it all together from that.
What the fuck is that mind, by far my favorite new band!
hahah "holy sh.. er.. oh my goodness"
lool kind of reminds me of vivaldi who stopped everything to write his ideas down -he even ran ran out of the church during a mass and he was the preist...
I think you mean 3rd guy from the left? or second on the right, great name for your kid though lol ;)
at 1:31 its clear whose the leader of the band
Keyboardist?
Why is he wearing scrubs?
(Best album I've heard for ten years, though.)
your keyboardist seems more terribly confused and surprised by all of this; more so than me. And I've only been listening for a week... :I
I think I preferred the album before I heard this...
1:29 = Harrison Ford
4:25
am i the only one that thinks he sounds like klaus from the vampire diaries... or joseph morgan? aihihih
PACKSHOT
Is the lead singer Agent Smith from The Matrix?
can't help but wonder whether John forced you guys into this interview XD
@eas3csy aha
egg
Micheal Spearman is it - Not so talkative - He seems so out of place and not giving one ****
anyone else thought they were just fun lyrics..?
I love her lack of energy, go girl give us nothing!
they look properly tired.
aha baby jez you look bored
bs!!!!!!!!!!!!
