Actually, The Cure had a very diverse sound, much like WA. Lyrically, their songs tend to be dark, but not always musically. Anyways, I meant that the way Ellie sings in this video reminds me of the way Robert Smith sings sometimes.
I see the signs of a lifetime You 'til I die And I'm swiftly out Irish goodbye What if it's not meant for me? Love What if it's not meant for me? Love I'd like to get to know you, I'd like to take you out We'll go to the Hail Mary, and afterwards make out Instead I'm typing you a message that I know I'll never send Rewriting old excuses, delete the kisses at the end When I see you, the whole world reduces to just that room And then I remember and I'm shy, that gossip's eye will look too soon And then I'm trapped, overthinking and yeah, probably self-doubt You tell me to get over it and to take you out But I can't, I'm too scared And here's a night-bus, I have to go And the doors are closing and you were waving And I like you, and I'll never let it show And you won't wait and maybe I won't mind I work better on my own And now I'm home, and a lil bit drunk And I ask myself What if it's not meant for me? Love What if it's not meant for me? Love A few days pass since I last saw you and you have taken over my mind And I'm re-telling jokes you made that made me laugh, pretending that they're mine I wanna tell the whole world about you, I think that that's a sign I'm losing self control and it's you, it really is, one thousand times I look at your picture and I smile How awful's that? I'm like a teenage girl I might as well write a note in my notebook That you 'rock my world!' You do, you really do You've turned me upside down And that's okay, I'll let it happen Cause I like having you around I'm a love-trick, a romantic cliche and they really are all true And we catch eyes in a stupid party, I know exactly what to do I'll take your hand, and we will leave French exit for me and you And I'm home, and a lil bit drunk Some things don't change And I know now Me and you were meant to be in love Me and you were meant to be in love Me and you I see the signs of a lifetime You 'til I die
@@infancysguard listen to the tone in her voice its got that soft vocal like hope. the guitar uses the reverb clean sound. she could pull off any mazzy star cover. stop being a douche.
My God I feel like I'm a witness to something consequential here. I haven't come across any new music that has really stirred me. I've felt like it all was gutless. I really have lamented that music was dead.........I've been lifted from the depths.....what is it about the Brits?
I have to agree, I heard this version first and I was so disappointed in the studio version. A missed opportunity to release a fucking amazing song, they should put this version on the album instead.
Yeahh I know what you mean, but I guess they did it bring out the right sense/feel for the studio version. Her voice really shows beautifully in the Tiny Desk Concert!
oh no man, i love the studio version, but the first time i heard the song was (via youtube) on the jools holland show and i think that version is amazing! this one, also a stripped down version like in this vid, is very good th-cam.com/video/PiRc10aEhDI/w-d-xo.html

Words can't describe how good this band sounds to me! Only discovered Wolf Alice a month ago, but their music is the best stuff I've heard in years!
Absolutely brilliant. Her timing speaking those lyrics is nothing short of exceptional
I'm home and a little bit drunk and almost crying at how perfect this song is
This reminds me so much of The Cure, especially when Ellie gets to the spoken parts. I absolutely love this band.
does not ring a bell to me, Cure was darker

her voice is so beautiful im amazed
I haven't been this excited for an album in a long time ^ - ^
utterly incredible, these people are some just completely brilliant.
this live performance is definitely THE BEST...3> it gives me chills all over my body...
Love this band. Glad I watched train spotting 2
Dito!
I love it when you find a band and dig a bit deeper
Thank you Danny Boyle 👍
she is just stunning
I see the signs of a lifetime
You 'til I die
And I'm swiftly out
Irish goodbye
What if it's not meant for me? Love
What if it's not meant for me? Love
I'd like to get to know you, I'd like to take you out
We'll go to the Hail Mary, and afterwards make out
Instead I'm typing you a message that I know I'll never send
Rewriting old excuses, delete the kisses at the end
When I see you, the whole world reduces to just that room
And then I remember and I'm shy, that gossip's eye will look too soon
And then I'm trapped, overthinking and yeah, probably self-doubt
You tell me to get over it and to take you out
But I can't, I'm too scared
And here's a night-bus, I have to go
And the doors are closing and you were waving
And I like you, and I'll never let it show
And you won't wait and maybe I won't mind
I work better on my own
And now I'm home, and a lil bit drunk
And I ask myself
What if it's not meant for me? Love
What if it's not meant for me? Love
A few days pass since I last saw you and you have taken over my mind
And I'm re-telling jokes you made that made me laugh, pretending that they're mine
I wanna tell the whole world about you, I think that that's a sign
I'm losing self control and it's you, it really is, one thousand times
I look at your picture and I smile
How awful's that? I'm like a teenage girl
I might as well write a note in my notebook
That you 'rock my world!'
You do, you really do
You've turned me upside down
And that's okay, I'll let it happen
Cause I like having you around
I'm a love-trick, a romantic cliche and they really are all true
And we catch eyes in a stupid party, I know exactly what to do
I'll take your hand, and we will leave
French exit for me and you
And I'm home, and a lil bit drunk
Some things don't change
And I know now
Me and you were meant to be in love
Me and you were meant to be in love
Me and you
I see the signs of a lifetime
You 'til I die
Irish goodbye?
jeff marcelynas corrected
The studio version of this sounds a lot like Grimes (which is no bad thing!) but this one sounds more like....Wolf Alice :)
I am always either yuk foo or don't delete the kisses, never in between.
Que bonita voz tiene Ellie.
Such a beautiful voice, sweet angel bliss.
I love her so much I can’t😭😭🖤🖤🖤
I Love it!
Two big thumbs up!!
Can't get enough!
2:53 just thought for a moment that something is wrong with my headphones
love it
♡ So Good
Wow
She has the voice of mazzy starr and the band is a mix of the cure and the verve.
No she doesn't, and no they aren't.
@@infancysguard better get your hearing tested...
@@xcitement5000 She sounds nothing like Hope Sandoval, and they sound nothing like The Cure! You don't know wtf you're talking about.
@@infancysguard listen to the tone in her voice its got that soft vocal like hope. the guitar uses the reverb clean sound. she could pull off any mazzy star cover. stop being a douche.
@@xcitement5000 No. Hope often has a sleepy, lazy sound to her voice. What Cure song do you think is similar to Wolf Alice?

live versions > studio versions
both good though
hi
😮😮😏😏🙂🙂
Is that her coming out song?
This was my first thought upon hearing it as well lol
I would have left there a weeping blob of jelly
at 2:53, her voice breaks the dimensional capacity of the microphone.
this song is perfect for S.K.I.N.S uk
she looks way more wasted now !!!!!!!!!!!
So much better than that shitty studio version
I have to agree, I heard this version first and I was so disappointed in the studio version. A missed opportunity to release a fucking amazing song, they should put this version on the album instead.
Noooo i actually thought that the studio version was breath taking. This version is nice but it's not my preferred version!
It's just that she has an amazing voice, and they kind of drown it in the studio version with vocal effects.
Yeahh I know what you mean, but I guess they did it bring out the right sense/feel for the studio version. Her voice really shows beautifully in the Tiny Desk Concert!
