I disagree and not complaining I just bought tickets to their next show and they are my favorite band right now. But I do admit I am getting scared with the two new songs. I love the first three albums because it brought me back years when I thought music was a lot better. The albums were grungier and more Rock. I feel like this new album is going to be more pop than the music I fell in love with. But I could be wrong and my fingers are crossed
I'm 61. This band makes me feel like I'm in my twenties. Unfortunately, it's only my imagination, but that's the power of music! One of the greatest bands of the 21st century, and probably the best is yet to come...
A charismatic frontman, a band full of musicality , two new songs where their sound has evolved brilliantly, but they haven't lost that punk edge. Makes this f***ed up world a better place.
@@leannecampbell4551sadly this is true. Also the band haven’t lived in Ireland for many years now they are practically Londoners now. Like many many people I miss the old Ireland so much 😢
It annoys me when folk of my age (59) bang on about how music these days is rubbish and they're stuck in the 60s 70s and 80s. Yet there are bands like Fontaines D.C. and many many others making superb original music.
The alternative music of today is actually reminiscent of 80s alternative, and it is every bit as good. I’m your age, but I saw Muse twice recently and they were two of the best shows I’ve ever seen. This song by Fontaines DC is super retro.
these words on this tune makes me thrilled,cry, happy and sad at the same time;: "Favourite is the uncovered fossil of a 50s radio station, it reperesents such happines that makes you uncomfortable, the song that welcomes you through the gates of heaven and theres a melancholy in that when you realise youre no longer living." - Grian Chatten
this feels like watching the beginning of what will be considered a classic band in the future, both singles have been just incredible, this album could be one of the best of the year
@mradhurley heard 4 songs off it and you're saying you're not feeling the same vibes already? I mean who knows and I get what you're saying but...come back in August and we can both be honest 😂
@mradhurley I know, four isn't many and I should've put "looks like 4 classic albums in a row" but still I'm an optimist off the live stuff and singles 😂
Special band. Takes me back to uni 13 years ago. Takes me back to discovering Morrisey, The Cure and The kinks for the first time. Makes me think of love lost. And im the happiest ive been in my life, but their music takes me right back to an era that feels like a previous life these days.
This song takes me back to the times/places when/where unconditional joy wasn't rare or usually unavailable and people weren't so dramatically divided, far and separated from each other. Well done, guys 🖤
How I love the great evolution you all have developed throughout all of these recent years. Grian Chatten, keep being the great poet you are!Ich liebte es!
@@ryanheyworth9359 i admit that the statement was a bit hyperbolic. however, this song reminds me of the smiths and new order. this of course does not make it any less original, in fact it is beautiful.
I love this. Nostalgic but new and warm at the same time. Reminds me of going to gigs in Dublin back in the day. Can’t wait for the album and to see them later in the year.
Pure Johnny Marr on the guitar there lads... lot of time for this band, maybe because everything they put out feels like a trip down memory lane for someone of my vintage...
I’ve only just got into the fontains dc i only know the songs in the past that have been on the radio but not heard much so i looked them up on Spotify now i absolutely love them
🎉❤🎉❤😊😊😊 I'm 68, same mood, buy I look myself and my irrisoltness,not my children cause I haven't got them, I stay in daughter role .. yet anymore I was a baby teacher, baby and child in my heart and my students my mentor❤❤❤❤❤ Now, I'm in quiescence about I'm 68🎉 I love Fontaines DC
What a moment for this band. Evolved beautifully. Favourite may well be their best yet - hard to chose from such a great discography but Favourite feels like an instant classic - perfect riff, lyrics and dynamics, a truly great song, from what may be the best band in the world now. If romance delivers on its promises it will be a decade defining album, in any case they are so worth getting excited about.
After hearing this song, I pre-ordered the album on bandcamp. Damn, this band just sounds so good. Really looking forward to the new album. They just keep getting better and better.
Fantastic.... with a bucket full of talent and attitude - superstars in the making. Love the hair clips and mike tape! A class act in a seemingly endless stupid and cruel world- this is a breath of fresh air.....keep it up chappies🤟
Their musical evolvement is special. So special that you rarely see musicians at the highest stage these days get to a sense of freedom where they can create the music they want to. Massive.
Ya Allah, aku bersemadi dengan lagu ni secara fizikal, rohani dan juga mental. Aku akan tujukan lagu ni untuk wanita yang aku akan gelar hidup dan rumah nanti, semoga aku terus bernafas sehingga tiba waktu itu, Aamiin.
. Thank you. I was hoping something this dope was out there.i love the melody and everything about this group of amazing music artists working together to make is vibe I’ve been unconsciously craving.bravo. Jools has one the best shows ever and I doubt anyone has seen so many amazing performances than him.
They are certainly a throwback to the 80s with a twist - The BBC Later Show is still going strong and that old musical hall venue brings a nostalgic ambience to these performances.
song has something nostalgic in it, yet fresh. love it
Yes! That riff, Some Go Betweens there, Feelies, Smiths...a past memory that it seems better than it was. Great music
Yeah! for real though nice mixture
Sounds VERY similar to Kodaline - Brand New Day 😮😮😮
perhaps it’s how similar it sounds to the wedding present?
These singles and their last album sounded very influenced by Madchester and Britpop
how far have they come man, loved all albums so far but these 2 new songs are something different
right?! Easily my 2 favorite Fontaines songs, I didn't see that coming at all.
jackie down the line still no.1 for me but favourite a very close second
More melodic, which is not bad.
Agreed

Feels like I’ve known & loved this song for 30 years…
Maybe it's because it sounds the same as Kodaline - Brand New Day 😮😮😮
like it's been your favourite for a long time?
@@kerpoiseit really doesn’t though does it, completely different vibes
Because it’s some 90’s stuff copycat . Can’t tell what exactly yet but I’ll recall - got it. It’s a copycat of Pulp stuff. For example Common People.
@@kerpoise Jaysus, don't compare Kodaline to Fontaines
The tone on those guitars are great, got the 80s jangle, what a tune
It’s a Johnny Marr signature Jaguar!
@@Malto_Dextrin He'll be happy he gave it to him too.
drum sound and drummer are on point too. really talented band!
Its exactly the same tempo as The Cure Just Like Heaven I think but sounds more early 90s influenced bands like The Las etc pre Brit Pop era of music.
Played this song about 100 times since Friday. What a piece of music
Second that!!! Been on repeat daily
Love the 'panic attack' lack of breath!!! 😬The Irish know Music !!
I'm 61. This band makes me feel like I'm in my twenties. Unfortunately, it's only my imagination, but that's the power of music! One of the greatest bands of the 21st century, and probably the best is yet to come...
I’m 70 same for me! Great!
62 years old. But if I bop too much I might throw my back.
you are right ! Fontaines DC Will become the pop music référence in the world
Going on 54 and can feel it too...
61 as well last gig was nick cave then black angels this band enthuse you and remind you of why you love music and go to gigs❤
A charismatic frontman, a band full of musicality , two new songs where their sound has evolved brilliantly, but they haven't lost that punk edge. Makes this f***ed up world a better place.
Very well said mate. What a band. I love everything about this band. Music, lyrics, the band members, their look, attitude. Fucking makes me so happy
Well said!
The Irish flag on the microphone. Pure class 🍀
Toda verdad!
The Ivory Coast flag is a better reflection of the current state of Ireland!
@@leannecampbell4551sadly this is true. Also the band haven’t lived in Ireland for many years now they are practically Londoners now. Like many many people I miss the old Ireland so much 😢
@@leannecampbell4551 piss off
@@galwaygirl8131 What do you miss about the old Ireland?
I’m 66 Saw these guys last week ..felt like the first time I saw the Clash …..really special talented group of guys.
This is the”Just like Heaven “ for 2024
And I mean that with the utmost respect
This is a classic
It's good but no JLH
Ignorance is bliss
@@ClockwiseCatgive it time
It's below average Indie rock.
JLH great song to me more The Smiths vibe
I think this will be my favourite for a long time….
This band just get better and better. 🤩
Currently the best band in the World. Thank you
100%
Says a lot. Nobody out there has even heard of them
Either them or Parcels
@@ishmael2586What a stupid comment 😂😂 So untrue
Them or Idles in my opinion

You're right! Of course there's a lot of shit everywhere but if you carefully pay attention to bands like this one you will change your mind
Check out Balu Brigada. Tight 3-piece band that sounds somehow familiar.
Those folks just don't get exposed to great stuff like this.College radio opened my eyes and ears decades ago.

“Every time you blink, you feel a change”. Simple but great line.
Really glad Fontaines DC are embracing the image side of what they do now. Without a doubt the most interesting band around in my humble opinion.
I agree.
idk if this is the real KLC but I really love YD :)
Timeless. Four classic albums in a row.
totally agree, three days in a row listening on repeat this track every now and then. fucking great stuff
Fuck sake lad you haven't even heard the 4th album yet 😂
@mradhurley heard 4 songs off it and you're saying you're not feeling the same vibes already? I mean who knows and I get what you're saying but...come back in August and we can both be honest 😂
@@cruiserscreek I'm saying wait till you hear the album until you label it a classic. Big ask, I know...
@mradhurley I know, four isn't many and I should've put "looks like 4 classic albums in a row" but still I'm an optimist off the live stuff and singles 😂
Made me feel like 18 again. Love all the albums but this song is a hymn to lighten up these strange times!
Same as. Brings me back 20yesrs
It takes some measure of a band to deliver over so much hype. They just keep getting better.

Best song of the year
Sincerity and optimism is a beautiful thing to build a song out of.
Song of 2024 for me! My favourite for a long time... 😂
My favorite band right now, can’t wait to hear the new album
Truly incredible songwriting, they’ve captured something special with this.
It makes me so happy to hear this style of music still alive 🥹🙌🕺
Love how they put the tricolour tape on Grian’s mic 🇮🇪 can’t wait for the album in August…these lads are killing it
This song takes me back to the times/places when/where unconditional joy wasn't rare or usually unavailable and people weren't so dramatically divided, far and separated from each other. Well done, guys 🖤
This song sounds like it existed sinde i was a child
Such a nostalgic vibe to it
This song is an instant classic of course, but LOOK HOW FREAKING COOL THEY LOOK 🥵
they look like rock stars. Just exude that vibe.
Gives me the 90's vibe! 😢 cheers you guys!!!🎉
Beautiful to hear some proper indie music back on the arisen. Great band bringing raw passion back to a dull music period
AMAZING TRACK ❤️ heard it live in Warsaw and it can break your heart and make you cry a bit 🎉
How I love the great evolution you all have developed throughout all of these recent years.
Grian Chatten, keep being the great poet you are!Ich liebte es!
what a blast!!! Bernard Sumner & Johnny Marr are smiling contentedly 🤩
Where?!
@@ryanheyworth9359 i admit that the statement was a bit hyperbolic. however, this song reminds me of the smiths and new order. this of course does not make it any less original, in fact it is beautiful.
Don't forget John Squire and the Cure!
@@Santosv708 you are right. it is a song full of beautiful things from the past
Hands down my fav song of the year. Gives me libertines/the cure vibes. Belter.
I love this. Nostalgic but new and warm at the same time. Reminds me of going to gigs in Dublin back in the day. Can’t wait for the album and to see them later in the year.
I can’t get over how much I love this band
Patiently waiting in Colorado for the rest of the album. 😵💫 I’ve always been enthralled and intrigued by Fontaines DC. Their talent’s beyond.
One of the best songs I've ever heard. I'm hooked
Can’t wait to hear this in person, song of the summer 💚
Pure Johnny Marr on the guitar there lads... lot of time for this band, maybe because everything they put out feels like a trip down memory lane for someone of my vintage...
He's a JM fan hence the JM custom Jag. ❤
@@andrewo6521 yeah makes sense, thanks!
First time I'm hearing this new track and I've got goosebumps. Nostalgic, fearless and just incredible composition. Fontaines forever.

this is the coolest thing i have heard in a while
Finally, some incredible 90's proper vibe music....congrats guys
One of the best songs of the decade
Their drummer is one of the best going at the moment
Agreed-he’s dynamite!!
Based on what exactly?
@@Garrett1240 Other drummers maybe!
He's just standard drummer
He’s great. No Cav’s from Gizz though
Yes, you have been my Favourite for a long time!!
What a song. Keep it up lads!! 🇮🇪
Brilliant track, one of their best
What a tune!
This song is so good, it feels so good to listen to it, I love Fontaines D.C.
I fell in love with this band on a road trip in the USA

Fantastic.... with a bucket full of talent and attitude - superstars in the making. Love the hair clips and mike tape!

So dreamy and upbeat for the Summer.
Suenan chingon estos irlandeses!! Saludos desde mexico
I’ve listened to this song none stop since hearing it on the radio. Hooked
This song sends me❤❤❤
Great song, great band. This one reminds me of the first 2 Rolling Blackouts CF EPs, which are also great!
Yes, for anyone reading this comment check out the track 'Talking Straight' by Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever, an absolute ear worm of a song.
If they can keep it together, they will be a huge successful band
Nailing it…Drums like thunder claps ❤
Love this song so much, boys keep delivering
Loved this performance ❤
Their musical evolvement is special. So special that you rarely see musicians at the highest stage these days get to a sense of freedom where they can create the music they want to. Massive.
One of the most exciting bands around
Incredible. Roll on the gigs they have coming up. 🖤
What a tune 👌
God this a beautiful song.
Such a 90s vibe. Great song. Wish more music like this played nowadays.
An instant classic!
One of my favourite bands with a similar is Idlewild and get huge vibes in this tune these boys just keep bringing the jangly hits, what a great tune!
Fantástico!.. más un buen tema de Fontaines DC, toda esperanza en esta banda fresca, moderna, comprometida y musicalmente motivada!
🇵🇹🇨🇺🇵🇹🇨🇺🇵🇹🇨🇺🇵🇹🇨🇺
Obsessed with this song. When I think about my friend, this song comes to mind
We sang on the same night, on the same stage, with The Badlees! We did a remembrance at a party in Lemoyne a year later. Liking the new stuff! Go!
Beautiful, truly magical song!
Heard this beauty for the first time last night and must have listened over 25 times already. These dudes are the real deal.

The best band in decades ❤
Just heard this , in my car on Jo Whiley on R2 , had to come in a find it on here , brilliant tune , will be lookin them up .
The lyrics and the riff are so good that I haven't listened to the drum and bass yet. This is too good to be true
classic indie in the best way possible
What a song. Very smiths like Jackie down the line .
Just love the hair grips...an as for the tune excellent as alwaays🎉.,no any dichotomy needed 👌
Can't wait to hear the album in full at the listening party on 15 August. It's going to be magical! 🖤
They are certainly a throwback to the 80s with a twist - The BBC Later Show is still going strong and that old musical hall venue brings a nostalgic ambience to these performances.
What a hooky tune, lots of radio airplay here in the NY area. Good for them!
Can't wait for the new album. Is it just me or does this song give off early idlewild vibes?! They've captured something great here!
You could be right actually. I´m hearing the Cribs too.
This is The BEST song I have heard in 20 YEARS since Coldplay Fix you .. What a GREAT song !!!!!
