After listening to this song thousands of times for years and years I can conclude that it is perfect in every way. This piece of art has very significant meaning to me. Love you guys
This song characterizes our fears of the unforeseeable future. I feel this song also represents our fear and anxiety over what we cannot control. I constantly worry about the future and most of my worries are based on the unknown. Whenever I am feeling anxious, I always listen to this brilliant song!!!
Lyrics: "Death" I love the feeling when we lift off Watching the world so small below I love the dreaming when I think of The safety in the clouds out my window I wonder what keeps us so high up Could there be a love beneath these wings If we suddenly fall should I scream out Or keep very quiet and cling to my mouth as I’m crying So frightened of dying Relax, yes, I’m trying But fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me I love the quiet of the nighttime When the sun is drowned in the deathly sea I can feel my heart beating as I speed from The sense of time catching up with me The sky's set out like a pathway But who decides which route we take As people drift into a dreamworld I close my eyes as my hands shake And when I see a new day Who’s driving this anyway I picture my own grave, 'cause fear's got a hold on me Yes, this fear's got a hold on me Floating neither up or down I wonder when I’ll hit the ground Will the earth beneath my body shake And cast your sleeping hearts awake Could it tremble stars from moonlit skies Could it drag a tear from your cold eyes I live on the right side, I sleep in the left That’s why everything’s got to be love or death Yes, this fear's got a hold on me
Yeah, now I'm just scared of catching the deadly and less researched version of a flu and then spread it in my family home where I live with my elderly parents. Life is great when you're young in the 2020's :D
@@ginandromeda1618 I'm so sorry that you've been dealt this reality. I know I thought life sucked as a teen and those moments of staying out late roaming the traintracks or taking long drives down a dark highway were my escape from reality but also my issues were simply social issue and not a global pandemic and mass delusions that hold much deeper consequences. Stay strong and find positivity where you can. I hope we can all make it out of this. ❤️

I am so glad that this was used in the excellent film, A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night. What a great movie and a great way to make sure this great music gets some fresh listeners!
There’s very few albums that I love all the tunes on…. This is whole heartedly one of them! Top 5 fav bands of all time- there’s a soaring quality to the sound, beautiful haunting lyrics, and a guitar tone that’s both delicate and harsh, dancing drums just finish the whole thing off for me👌👌👌
I really like this band, from the first song I've heard (and it was a couple of days ago...) The more I listen to them, the more I like them... On some parts they remind me on The National, Joy Division, Depeche Mode... But yet, they are so unique... They aren't too melancholic, that's what I like...
Strange how White Lies songs are all depressing when you read the lyrics however their gigs rock the f!cking place down! 14 times I have seen them and everyone has been epic!
what a tune i forgot all about this band!!! my 12 year old daughter decided we were to have a bond lol and watch the vampire diaries .... not the best but the music takes me back to my prime !!! this band i loved and forgot all about!!!!
Essa música tocava muito na MTV e eu a adorava, mas com o passar dos anos acabei a esquecendo. Hoje a escutei no Spotify e fiquei muito feliz com esse reencontro! Continua soando muito bem
Eu também, havia perdido! Fui ver essa semana um filme chamado "Nossa história de amor e música" (Modern Life is Rubbish) o qual gostei da trilha, quando dei de ouvidos com ela, agora não desapego...nostalgia!
how can you dislike this song? seriously? epic music. i would burn the album on a golden disc and send it to space with the words "humans, we can do good."

Recuerdo que estaba un sábado sentada viendo la televisión, aburrida y cambiando de canal; de pronto apareció un concierto de una banda, y sonaban tan bien que me quedé viendo ese concierto hasta que acabó. Me gustó tanto que busqué más canciones de ellos en internet. Justamente la banda era White Lies, y ésta fue la primer canción que escuché de ellos. Saludos desde México 🇲🇽
I've heard so many critics criticise White Lies for using emotion in their songs to compensate for a lack of musical skill, but I reckon musical skill is the ability to create emotion, and everything I listen to after this song just sounds bland. Love this band!
I loved it 15 Years ago and just forgot it for quite a Time. Rediscovered it in 2024 after maybe 10 Years or longer not listening to it and that Song is such a Timeless Epic Track... Amazing!!! Masterpiece
This is such a massively underrated piece of music
Its hitting harder in 2020
why?
*Such a massively underrated band
You underrate it?

The song characterises the intelligence to understand consequence... and mortality.
And the songwriters deathly fear of flying ;)
Lyrics:
"Death"
I love the feeling when we lift off
Watching the world so small below
I love the dreaming when I think of
The safety in the clouds out my window
I wonder what keeps us so high up
Could there be a love beneath these wings
If we suddenly fall should I scream out
Or keep very quiet and cling to my mouth as I’m crying
So frightened of dying
Relax, yes, I’m trying
But fear's got a hold on me
Yes, this fear's got a hold on me
I love the quiet of the nighttime
When the sun is drowned in the deathly sea
I can feel my heart beating as I speed from
The sense of time catching up with me
The sky's set out like a pathway
But who decides which route we take
As people drift into a dreamworld
I close my eyes as my hands shake
And when I see a new day
Who’s driving this anyway
I picture my own grave,
'cause fear's got a hold on me
Yes, this fear's got a hold on me
Floating neither up or down
I wonder when I’ll hit the ground
Will the earth beneath my body shake
And cast your sleeping hearts awake
Could it tremble stars from moonlit skies
Could it drag a tear from your cold eyes
I live on the right side, I sleep in the left
That’s why everything’s got to be love or death
Yes, this fear's got a hold on me
Quiet = choir
Man I wish I were still in my teens when being out late at night with your buddies still had a sense of mystery and excitement.
I'm feeling ya bro/broette!!🌊🤙♥️🇮🇪
Exactly the same feeling here ✨💓✨
Yeah, now I'm just scared of catching the deadly and less researched version of a flu and then spread it in my family home where I live with my elderly parents. Life is great when you're young in the 2020's :D

Life always has mystery and excitement. It's life, you're never gonna know everything, there's always something new to know
2022 still on my play list and one of the best debut albums ever made.
One of my favourite songs of all time. Love the build-up to the eargasmic ending and also the poetic lyrics.

@@worldlylifenl4362 yep I'M STILL HERE SIA SANG.
all the best bands are underrated. you introduce it to someone, they dont think much of it. then its played on the radio and everyone loves it.
How ironic that this song makes me feel so alive
Me tooooo!
I’m not the only one who has a smile hearing this then ! Makes me feel alive too
I que this song at least once a month, I miss this time and place! And my ex..
The closer you are to death the more alive you feel. Pilots fly close to the ground for this reason.
Me too
I wish I could forget this song so I can discover it again and immerse myself in its brilliance once more
But it sounds fresh with each listen anyway
I guess I’m lucky tonight cause I just found about this song :>
@@amnasalem3735 Me too.
Heard this track in a great scene from A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night. Fell in love immediatly.

Conheci pelo filme A girl walks home alone at night
A Girl Walks Alone At Night... What a perfect soundtrack!
Well that is a compliment any record label or music related channel wants to hear, so THANKS!
"A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night" brought me here! Fantastic use of this song in a love scene in that movie about a vampire!

It's where I'm coming from

I’m still rocking this loud and often, what a tune!

thank you Death and other details!
I forgot about this song, and then it was in the Season 3 Sex Education trailer and I felt so guilty that I forgot about it.
wow me too

Há 9 anos que eu não a ouvia pq tinha esquecido seu nome. Foi tão bom ter encontrado.
Isso Marina! Sinto o mesmo!

This entire album is fire from start to finish
This song ALWAYS brings a joyful tear in my eyes. Cant explain it. It just bursts with life
I love the quiet of the night time
but who decides which route we take?
how can you dislike this song? seriously?
epic music. i would burn the album on a golden disc and send it to space with the words "humans, we can do good."
Habrá alguien que disfrute tanto esta canción como yo? Que la repita una y otra vez y siga sintiendo el mismo sentimiento que transmite.. me encanta esta rola.. desde la primera vez que la escuché 10/10/19
😂Iguales
Yo quedé enamorado cuando la escuché una madrugada en MTv por el 2009.
This is one of those pieces that touches magnificence
Love those drums
Hurts to see this song is so underrated.
Tenia 16 en el 2009-10 encendía la tele ponía Mtv para esperar a que pasaran esta joya, que tiempos aquellos honestamente tenía años de no saber de ellos ahora todo a cambiado y están diferente que desearía regresar 10 años en el tiempo. Oyendo DEATH renace una hambre insaciable de escuchar su música nuevamente. estos mens la rompieron con el TO LOSE MY LIFE disco que estará en mi mente por el resto de mi vida ¡viva WHITE LIES gran banda!

Impossible not to put this track up to full volume. Screw the neighbours, screw the fact you can't sing, simply an immense song!
Fond memories of seeing these at Glastonbury in 09! This song was a pretty big tune at the time it was brilliant live
I will do my part until the end of my days to not let this music die.
This song reminds me what my life was in 2008-2009... The lyrics describe those weird times.
Love the band love the song Love the video
This whole album is excellent break-up music
Except it's not break-up music, lol...
ZazarStudios It's funny that how people can drag out love in every song
2020 and my all time fave album. Once in a life time kinda album. Perfection
Still a brilliant track lads! Saw them in Sheffield about 10yrs back. Very much post punk. Almost a sprit of Joy division about them here.
I love Joy Division. I agree.
A long lost gem 💛
Otis&Maeve 😍🔥
This is a brilliant tune,I forgot how good it sounded with the volume turned up high.
Best played loud
this band is so underrated, their lyrics are fucking amazing, and the songs themselves knock you off your feet
Profound. The lyrics encapsulate years of dread, yet the music denotes strength. I love this song so much x
Hello 10 years ago. Can we have another post punk revival please?
2022. What a tune
A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night
Such a killer movie
Such a great classic! And the dubstep version is 🔥 too!
Love this song
i want this song to play at my funeral; its my favourite song and it would also add to the irony!

I am here because I listened to them in 2008-2010, and I remember what wonderful songs, as this here, they wrote....
Wow !! Very good Live at Bordeaux in FRance Tuesday 15 of november !! I love !
Such an anthem, can't help but dance like crazy listening to this song.
obrigada ad da mubi!!💙
They are awesome live! They were at the Osheaga festival in Montreal this week. I even talked with Jack the drummer... they're so hot...
when I tell people my favorite song is called Death they wonder about me.
People wonder about me anyway. ;)

You don't know what death is.
@@saxglend9439 I wish I didn't.
This just got played on Absolute radio uk... I've played it 5 times in a row since hearing it... can't better a Classic.
