This band were playing in the midd ninties ,i heard " Roses in the hospital " and my love affair with the Manics began and that love this day still exists and i will neverstop loving the until they retire I was born the same year as James and they are a constant in in my life. ViVA MANIC STREET PREACHERS !
1994 I remember it well and bought the single. I first heard them in a pub on a video screen with Little Baby Nothing in 1992 and was amazed by them. Ironically, nine years later I ended up moving to the town and working there unhappily for the next twenty years but that is another story. At least the Manics have been an accompaniment and solace in my travails. They are true working class heroes and thoroughly decent with it. The music is exemplary, makes you think and moves you with the lyrics and is a bright spot in the dystopian present I had hoped we would avoid when I first heard them thirty years ago.
They started at that theatre....in Blackwood. Very proud to be part of it keeping it going....the Manics are good people, as well as being awesome at what they do. A special video - great song.
@@eightiesmusic1984this was filmed at the theatre they started at. Blackwood Little Theatre - not the BMI. BLAckwood Little Theatre is going strong and not funded by the local council unlike the miners institute - which is the issue. There are two theatre about 600 metres apart.
I don't know why, but this song reminds me a lot "lifeblood" era which is great because a i love that album, specially "1985" and "To Repel Ghosts". Anyway, thanks a lot Manics for such gorgeous song and album!..
Good pick up. I agree. Lifeblood is awesome! The B sides to that album make up an album of their own. "Everyone Knows/Nobody Cares" is insane! th-cam.com/video/ASSNm9Y9DVo/w-d-xo.html
@@johnpayne4274 here you are: Say what you want Break my heart a thousand times But it's still right here So you left me with lies Let the banners unfold Let them fall to the floor We once had each other Now we're not so sure Are we living in the past? Where there's nothing left to feel Why'd you say that you love me? Tell me what I want to hear A cold war for the mind My distant colours still bleeding A broken promise for the soul Never loving never healingI no longer know my left from my right Between your hopes and fears And my joys to decide So say what you want Break my heart a thousand times But it's still right here Will we ever survive?
No doubt. It is perfect and the depth of emotion in his voice is incredible. Really there are not enough superlatives to adequately describe the talent inherent in their songs on every level. So moving.
Manic Street Preachers - and the fact that they have a new album coming out - are literally one of the reasons I am happy to be alive right now ❤ I just hope they come to Croatia to promote this album, they've only been here once so far (on the Send Away the Tigers tour).
Street Preacher this isn't a song for the undeserved. I don't think they really care about commercial success anymore. All that has ever mattered is they continued to make good music and keep that rapport with the fans. We don't want Mondeo fans like in the EMG era!
No idea what the Video is about, but the Music is a Vibe 🤘Manics at their best. New, yet so familiar. I was taken back to when I was a young man starting out in life, now I am 42 and starting again. This song is the musical comfort I have been looking for. Heard it on BBC 6 Music, had it stuck in my head for day's and just shared this song with my Brother. I, like the Band, are getting on in age. In my head I am jumping about, in reality, like the Band; I am swaying leisurely on the Stage.
Initially I wasn't too sure, after being spoilt with "International Blue" the follow up single was always going to be tough - but wow, this grows and grows and dare I say it eclipses IB - that takes some doing. Can't wait for the album.
Cannot ever put a foot (or a note, or a lyric, etc etc etc) wrong in my book ever. Always. Big love just canny wait to see yous @ the Glasgow gig. Over 20 years since I last saw you play Balloch Country Park in Scotland. X

James wrote the lyrics 😀 it fits in with the work/collaboration he made with Public Service Broadcastings last album and song he sung...I also think looking ahead this year with the 20th anniversary of This Is My Truth that the 'melancholia widescreen' visuals portrayed with this will tie in nicely with the imagery and feel that was going on in Truth and its all coming together for a great year to enjoy being a Manics fan :)
😥😥😥😥 another video and lyrics that ever increasingly makes more sense now .... the spirit and soul of Nye Bevan running through this against what we are now facing 🙏🙏🙏

they saved me through my cancer battle
My favourite band since I was 18 now almost 42. Like an old friend 💕😀
Cool band, and you are so pretty at 42s 😉😗
Coco Mancera thank you 💗🤗
Autumn Is your name Autumn? That’s what I’m gonna call me daughter, if I ever have one! 🙄
Ricki Paddon are you being sarcastic? Why do you have rolling eyes emoji? 🙄
Autumn I'm being serious. The rolling eyes represents the fact if I as in I won't have.. you know what I mean? 😉
Best band in the world bar none.
Manics remind me that there's still hope for the world. Deep, i know.

Majestic painful beauty
They've reignited a spark in my soul that I truly believed was permanently extinguished.
I can listen to this song for the rest of my life.
Still kicking when others faded. Long live the Manics!

This album has really grown on me since I’ve actually listened to it all the way through.
Such a beautiful song, it grows and grows with repeated listening. Possibly one of their most heartfelt yet? Either way, it's just wonderful.
Wish I knew the words
@@johnpayne4274 here you are:
Say what you want
Break my heart a thousand times
But it's still right here
So you left me with lies
Let the banners unfold
Let them fall to the floor

Now we're not so sure
Are we living in the past?
Where there's nothing left to feel
Why'd you say that you love me?
Tell me what I want to hear
A cold war for the mind
My distant colours still bleeding
A broken promise for the soul
Never loving never healingI no longer
know my left from my right
Between your hopes and fears
And my joys to decide
So say what you want
Break my heart a thousand times
But it's still right here
Will we ever survive?
Agreed. Amazing song and video, massively underrated x
No doubt. It is perfect and the depth of emotion in his voice is incredible. Really there are not enough superlatives to adequately describe the talent inherent in their songs on every level. So moving.
God how the world needs the Manics, wow what a great song
Beautiful song it means everything to be born in Wales 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
The Preachers still look and sound young Manics
108k views...this deserves millions. Brilliant, gets better with every listen.
One of the most underated bands around. What a belter of a track this is.
Manic Street Preachers - and the fact that they have a new album coming out - are literally one of the reasons I am happy to be alive right now ❤ I just hope they come to Croatia to promote this album, they've only been here once so far (on the Send Away the Tigers tour).
Laden with meaning from the Welsh working class. A really beautiful song from the Manics. Look forward to hearing it live.
They've done it again, another song that can bring me to tears and make me long for the day when I can return to live in Wales!
I wish you well and hope you make it soon. Perhaps you already have. It is a wonderful place.
Another beauty from the brilliant Manics.
Manic Street Preachers pure love
Manics are simply the Best
Hello from Malaysia! I can't stop listening to this song!
Love seeing the Welsh at beginning and end. Diolch yn fawr iawn!
That chorus vocal melody ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Newport guy here....
Brill the Manics
Amazing song , Keep it going guys 😉😁😏😄
This band is like the wine, the older the better. Thanks for bringing beautiful songs all the time.
This.. deserves to be number one in the official Top 40. Let's get it there!..
Street Preacher this isn't a song for the undeserved. I don't think they really care about commercial success anymore. All that has ever mattered is they continued to make good music and keep that rapport with the fans. We don't want Mondeo fans like in the EMG era!
Stevie Sedge fair point
Stevie Sedge fuckin' amazing track though
Yeah, my partner really likes it as well. Would still like to see them do something heavier next though I don't think they will.
Music moves life from within, and makes you think differently to the world you see, colors it with your joy, and you feel you exist! Rosanna
The Manics have this uncanny ability to make Wales seem bleak and beautiful at the same time.
Absolutely Brilliant Song From a Brilliant Band!!!!!
Video filmed at Blackwood Little Theatre....where they started out all those years ago!
absolutely stunning,manics never disappoint.
This is absolutely fantastic! Some of their best work recently, I'm so excited for this record!
I love Manic Street Preachers as always doing quality music! A hug from Brazil!
Bless their little Welsh hearts
Words fail. what a band , what a song !!!
What a beautiful language.
Straight from another time.
great band great song greetings from croatia
proper grower, love the two they've released so far.
full of melody and a classic manics chorus
No idea what the Video is about, but the Music is a Vibe 🤘Manics at their best. New, yet so familiar.

I, like the Band, are getting on in age. In my head I am jumping about, in reality, like the Band; I am swaying leisurely on the Stage.
Every time I hear it, it becomes more of a raging Welsh nash song. Must explain why it's been on repeat for the last week
Great song lot of energy and strong singing this single is way better then the last one
starts with quotes from RS Thomas and ends with Aneurin Bevan.. class!
What a brilliant song! Accompanied by a beautiful music video!
cool I LOVE IT, LOVE ALL THEIR MATERIAL
Listen to it with your headphones on... fantastic !
If this and International Blue are anything to go by, it's going to be another great album from the Manics.
Only one description is precise: FANTASTIC!
Great song, cant stop listening this and the other two new songs...
Cannot get enough of this song. Listened to it many times already this morning. Can't wait for the album!
Initially I wasn't too sure, after being spoilt with "International Blue" the follow up single was always going to be tough - but wow, this grows and grows and dare I say it eclipses IB - that takes some doing. Can't wait for the album.
I can't stop listening to this...
Absolutely brilliant....
Ardderchog ! Brilliant ! They never let you down !
Romantic and calm, love when manics do like that
Absolutely loving this tune! Swooning again for the manics!
BEAUTIFUL! Thank you `Manics.
My guys are on trending! You bloody deserve it!!

Beautiful song and video.
Cannot ever put a foot (or a note, or a lyric, etc etc etc) wrong in my book ever. Always. Big love just canny wait to see yous @ the Glasgow gig. Over 20 years since I last saw you play Balloch Country Park in Scotland. X
Amazing. Amazing song. Amazing band. I think that Pulp, Suede and Manic Street Preachers are the best brit pop bands ever.
For some reason, this song makes me shivers...
Say what you want
Break my heart a thousand times
But it's still right here
So you left me with lies
Let the banners unfold
Let them fall to the floor
We once had each other
Now we're not so sure
Are we living in the past?
Where there's nothing left to feel
Why'd you say that you love me?
Tell me what I want to hear
A cold war for the mind
My distant colours still bleeding
A broken promise for the soul
Never loving never healing
I no longer know my left from my right
Between your hopes and fears
And my joys to decide
So say what you want
Break my heart a thousand times
But it's still right here
Will we ever survive?
Are we living in the past?
Where there's nothing left to feel
Why'd you say that you love me?
Tell me what I want to hear
A cold war for the mind
My distant colours still bleeding
A broken promise for the soul
Never loving never healing
Never ever healing
My distant colours still bleeding
Still bleeding
Are we living in the past?
Where there's nothing left to feel
Why'd you say that you love me?
Tell me what I want to hear
A cold war for the mind
My distant colours still bleeding
A broken promise for the soul
Never loving never healing
I don't care what they say about the music and that it's predictable... THE WORDS... WHAT THEY SAY IS EVERYTHING TO ME
Absolutely spot on! Go on the Manics!
Glorious....can't wait to see them in Glasgow in April
The lyrics are unbelievable,
I do not know why but this song fills me with joyful sadness. Great song!
Absolutely perfect :-) Loving every single note
I love this band lyrically...absolutely amazing what they come out with. Again I regret not finding them sooner.
What a time to be alive.....

yet another beautiful and meaningful song by the Manics. Long live the Manics. Can't wait to see you gig again.
Absolutely epic tune
beautifully shot video
Simply amazing !!
😥😥😥😥 another video and lyrics that ever increasingly makes more sense now .... the spirit and soul of Nye Bevan running through this against what we are now facing 🙏🙏🙏
What a song! Best video for a long time too!
🎶the boys are back in town the boys are back in toOoOoOown🎶
❤❤❤
Just another master piece by the Manics... Love this tune ❤ So much raw emotion.
Ive been a manics fan since 1995 my favourite band even though i missed the richey era
Another great tune by the boys from Blackwood and some glimpses of sculpture and architecture in the Gwent Valleys too!
fairplay what a song fantastic and never forgetting your welsh roots:))))
I absolutely love this song!
Gorgeous yet again boys
Hauntingly Glorious...
#ManicStreetPreachers are the #Best band in Wales .One of my favourite bands ever Cymru am byth .

Love it even more than International Blue! Gorgeous!
Loving this! The new album is going to be amazing!
It's a fantastic album
Well done guys. Not a massive Manics fan but this is bang on form. Best MSP song I've heard in a while.
