When Jimi sings, “Hello old friend / It’s been a while / It's me again / We're just prisoners of these times / But it won’t be for long,” I feel like he’s singing to us directly, to those who were once Doves fans 11 years ago and need music like this during what is probably the worst year in recent memory. It’s so good to have them back. And if they do a U.S. tour in 2021 I hope to finally see them.
This song got me through the prison of 2020 and 21. And this band gets me through life. Thank you for so much more than you'll ever realize, lads ♡ God bless.
I loooove it! For me it’s even better than “Carousels”. It reminds me a bit of Lost Souls, which will probably always be my favorite Doves album. Can’t wait for the deep cuts!!! Love you, guys!!!
Carousels is superb. It is a continuation of Dove's sound and Jimi's voice with the usual excellent backing from Martin Rebelski (the unsung hero that makes their sound inimitable.10/10 lads! Bring on the album.
i would happily wecome another 11 year hiatus if they give us songs like these , it beats churning out trash every 5 minutes as some "bands" do these days . 10 out of 10 so far doves
Cant remember the last time i was this eager for a new album. What a way to come back with this and Carousel. Amazing. The videos to both songs are seriously impressive too. Whenever you guys are live again i will be there.
The most magic song I've heard this year. This band are completely underestimated. I loved them in the 90's and there back. Fantastic. I just Love them. New Coldplay? I wish them all the luck they deserve. One of the best bands I've ever known. Fantastic
Same here! It takes me back to discovering those early EPs and getting the feeling I’d stumbled on something really special... this is the sound of all that early potential being totally fulfilled. ♥️
This will sound incredible live. All doves albums are so beautifully engineered and produced, but live their sound is grittier than the recording. Need live music back now.
Anyone responding thumbs down should be required to upload their own creative work for criticism. Ridiculous. This is a remarkable group of musicians. Also one of the most memorable shows I have seen, many years ago at gypsy tea room in Dallas
Fuck yes. So good to hear Jimi, Jez, and Andy back together. Beautiful from the very start, filled with the most graceful urgency, and angelically haunting, accompanied by entrancing visuals. I had the honour of chillin' with these cats in D.C. back in 2009.
So many elements to this song and each one is beautiful. The lyrics, the instrumentals, the surprises in changes of pace - I could go on. So good to hear new music from a favourite band.
I found this song via Absolute Radio whilst working from home. Have to admit to not having followed much from Doves before, but I think this is just lovely and joyous.
Oh my !!!the hairs are standing up ,bellys feeling it , it's been so long since music's done this, so glad your back you've made me very very happy 😃👍♥️
Absolutely love it, I understand carousels now. We saw you in Sheffield last year, absolutely amazing, just a pity you didn't play 'push me on' that's a banger. Can't wait for the new album! Well done guys, pure brilliance.x
Doves officially saving 2020 for me. This is what music should really sound like. Cant stop listening. Takes me back to how i felt when i started listening to them 20 years ago! Im taking it, Hello my friend its been a while, as if i am reconnecting with my 16 year old self 20 years! Saying hello, looking back with peace and now nostalgia for old, good times
Lost Souls came out the week of my 16th birthday 😊 This definitely takes me back to those days, travelling round the country following them on tour, not a care in the world... It’s so good to have them back.
Es como si Andalucía continuara con esta hermosa melodía. De verdad, gracias por hacer canciones como estas. Verdadero arte. Su imaginación es infinita muchachos
So flippin' glad for new DOVES music!! Loved every single note since I first heard "Catch the Sun" on CMJ compilation, issue #87, November 2000. Gonna be hard to top Kingdom of Rust. Definitely in my Top-10 all-time favorite albums. But the two new songs are so strong!! Cheers from the U.S. (Nashville Tennessee)!
Wow. Quarantine. This is making me envious of the early 2000s trying to get a taxi home from a Doves concert. 3 hours to walk home cause I have been showered in piss. Taxi got one whiff and drove off. I'd trade that for today.
Hermoso, fantástico y con gran emoción, todo eso siento cuando veo este video. Gracias Doves por producir un disco y recobrar tantos buenos recuerdos. Una de las mejores bandas actuales de UK.
It’s like meeting your best mate after 10 years apart. Pure joy.
🤣🤣 great analogy. Missed Doves so much 👍🏻. Class
@@RogueDarkAgent facts!!
💖
And him asking for the money you owe him
Good reason
Doves just don't seem able to put a foot wrong. Musical geniuses are back with a bang👍
They are. Now I just wish people in my country (the U.S.) recognized them more.
Oozing class I fucking love them

They are fantastic live! I hope they’ll tour again soon ☺️
yeah man
I've seen them play live, hope you get to see them play , it will be worth the wait.
Matthew Mason I’ve seen them three times saw them at their comeback gig last year Royal Albert Hall. Always an amazing band to see🙂
A song for the 30 something millennials who are about to become the new boomers 🤣
It’s like Space Oddity meets Song for the Lovers. Love it!!!
Good call! 👍
🙌
I thought the same thing 😊. It’s a great song!!
@Robert Smith Also a very great call. Same vibes, real music.
No it's like that songd
This song got me through the prison of 2020 and 21.
And this band gets me through life. Thank you for so much more than you'll ever realize, lads ♡ God bless.
This is one of the most epic comebacks ever. Unbelievable stuff - this feels so right for the moment
Doves, shockingly underrated.
God. This is so good. Brings me back to the universe of Doves.
Doves is one of a kind. Original. Brilliant. Please don't ever disband again.
Love the way DOVES throw in those cracking guitar rifts
Who else is waiting for this??? :) Doves Power all the way...
Hi Pambos! 🕊❤️
Long time coming and entirely worth it.
September is so far away 🤗
100%
Most underrated band ever. Glad to see you back. A bright light in the darkness of what music is nowadays. My heart is POUNDING
If nothing else, that's probably the greatest Doves music video yet.
great news to hear new music from one of my favourite bands of all time! Pls come and see us soon in Melbourne, Australia.
Doves have the English sound my heart yearns for on rainy days and cumbersome times. I can't wait for this record!
I loooove it! For me it’s even better than “Carousels”. It reminds me a bit of Lost Souls, which will probably always be my favorite Doves album. Can’t wait for the deep cuts!!! Love you, guys!!!
My favourite album of theirs since Lost Souls! :)
after all these years it’s like they’ve never been away
One of the most Iconic bands of our times..No arguments what so.
Bringin' back the guitar solo in 2020!
Carousels is superb. It is a continuation of Dove's sound and Jimi's voice with the usual excellent backing from Martin Rebelski (the unsung hero that makes their sound inimitable.10/10 lads! Bring on the album.
Rebelski is the man 👍
@Luis Felipe Azevedo Giacomin you are right. He makes doves' sound mate
@@dissonantdreams he is superb
Just when you think this is song is kinda great, Jez throws in that stinging guitar solo. Rock on Doves.
How can a band that hasn't released music for 11 years release two ridiculously amazing songs like these??? Incredible.
The voice! The guitars! The atmospherics! Takes me back to better days. The video is quality too. Can't wait for the album,
"What the World Needs Now is Doves Sweet Doves"
- Bacharach
Incredible song, has an awesome Lost Souls vibe and I'm all for that!
Bravo Doves. Welcome back. It’s been far too long and we’ve all been trying to sleep alone
but we couldn’t do it 😄
YES!!! NEW DOVES MUSIC!!!! Thank goodness!!!! The World needs this.....
Doves back to their very best, after 11 years. We needed this!
Great visualisation of the up and coming EMPCOE catastrophe doves 😀
i would happily wecome another 11 year hiatus if they give us songs like these , it beats churning out trash every 5 minutes as some "bands" do these days . 10 out of 10 so far doves
Nooooooo - don't even suggest another hiatus!! lol we've only just got our boys back!!
This video is a work of art, and the song is sounding amazingly signature of what we'd expect from Doves! Absolutely loving it! 👍
Cant remember the last time i was this eager for a new album. What a way to come back with this and
Carousel. Amazing. The videos to both songs are seriously impressive too. Whenever you guys are live again i will be there.
Doves 'sound' cannot be imitated. Atmospheric and anthemic. Love them. From 🏴
Epically a beautiful landscape of music that you can only find deep within the soul ☘
I'm so glad these guys are back.
The most magic song I've heard this year. This band are completely underestimated. I loved them in the 90's and there back. Fantastic. I just Love them. New Coldplay? I wish them all the luck they deserve. One of the best bands I've ever known. Fantastic
How feckin good is this .......a Doves classic 😎
for those that really understood the song meaning ''one day we all be free''
So excited to hear the entire album! This song gave me the same feeling as when I first started listening to the band in the late 90's. Go Doves!
Same here! It takes me back to discovering those early EPs and getting the feeling I’d stumbled on something really special... this is the sound of all that early potential being totally fulfilled. ♥️
First time I listened Doves was on radio and I can't stop listening these songs for a year. Great music. You have listeners from Turkiye too.😊
Carousels is the finest song I’ve heard in 2020 by some margin! Can’t wait to hear what they do next ❤️
👍
Yeah, totally agree with that.
Huh? What sense does that make. You’re literally watching what’s next
It's stellar. The drum work is great.
Chirpy Wiggins liam gallagher's melodic 'once' ain't too far behind though..
Reminds me of Richard Ashcroft's Song for Lovers, which is no bad thing. So glad to see Doves back.
This will sound incredible live. All doves albums are so beautifully engineered and produced, but live their sound is grittier than the recording. Need live music back now.
Doves, I wanna see you in Mexico. Fan since 2005.
Ck Hay que cooperarnos para traerlos, saludos!
@@guillermohernandezmolina4920 Concuerdo! Yo los sigo desde 2002 cuando Radioactivo promovía el The Last Broadcast.
Vaya vaya, creí que era el único que amaba a Doves
Que buena onda! Ya veo que no soy el único mexicano que conocía a los Doves ! Al menos ya somos 5
6!!!
Wow, Doves have done it again, what an amazing song prisoner's is, the song is bang on the emoment we're living in. 👍 😎
My favorite band in the galaxy.. your music means sooooo munch for me!!!
love it so nostalgic reminded me of my childhood for no reason, thank you for these emotions...
Oh, I feel like being back in 2002, when the world was still alright....somehow.
Yeah right? Change accelerated quickly didn't it.
100000% and I love it 😻
SAMEEEE ( i was in high school 2002 - great times, hardly any worries!!)
Wait a minute - 2002 - we were shitting ourselves about terror attacks after 9/11.
Afghanistan if memory serves me right
My God, just realized how much i have missed this brilliant band, sheer class, love it
Anyone responding thumbs down should be required to upload their own creative work for criticism. Ridiculous. This is a remarkable group of musicians. Also one of the most memorable shows I have seen, many years ago at gypsy tea room in Dallas
Thank you Doves, you've brought hope to us again with your music, specially during tough times 🙏
Fuck yes. So good to hear Jimi, Jez, and Andy back together. Beautiful from the very start, filled with the most graceful urgency, and angelically haunting, accompanied by entrancing visuals.

Been my fave band since about 2000. THEY'RE BACK!
I think the most beautiful song i 've heard in 2020. Brilliant.
I have most, if not all, of Doves' previous albums. I lost track of them and glad they're back.
MAN I forgot how much I love this band. Thank you so much for coming back
My god what a tune
Great. Playful sounds filled with universal melodies and challenging spirits. Doves are always so. They are the best.
My universal want was for these lads to make another album.... absolute belter chaps, spot on👌
Always just under the radar , just the way I like it cause their so damn good. Love love love Doves . So glad they are back for a while
Those descending bass lines. I love Doves. Missed ye!
LOVE THIS SONG!! I like Carousels, but this is the Doves I crave! See you in Boston, MA when you come around.
We are all whole again. Beautiful 💙. Thanks lads.
I found this song via Absolute Radio whilst working from home. Have to admit to not having followed much from Doves before, but I think this is just lovely and joyous.
Unreal. It's nearly 10pm and I'm tearing up listening to this. Beautiful. Thank you for making this.
Sounds amazing, very Lost Souls and that’s no bad thing
It's definitely self-plagiarism, but it's much better than Kingdom of Rust.
Not sure if they will ever make a better album than Lost Souls, l think one of the best debut albums l have heard!
@@keithjones6023 Agreed. I like Carousels but the others I've heard from this album don't stand out.
The defining song for 2021, and the best relatively new album I’ve heard in awhile.
Beautiful sound, beautiful video footage, bring back our lonely souls
reminds me of Ashcroft's Song for the Lovers, love it!
Was thinking same thing myself, glad somebody else can here it to lol, great song thou.
I thought the same! Both are excellent songs in their own right, with just enough of each other.
jesus thanks for that, I thought it was a pulp song, been searching for a week
You know what.. yes it does mate
Thank you! That's been really bugging me - I knew it sounded like something...
These lyrics are so appropriate for the times we are living in. Apocalyptic bliss.
Waoooow Doves you have really aced it here. Just love the spaced out vibe on this track and cant wait to see you live again, Love you
Oh my !!!the hairs are standing up ,bellys feeling it , it's been so long since music's done this, so glad your back you've made me very very happy 😃👍♥️
Amazing. Love Doves so much
Absolutely love it, I understand carousels now. We saw you in Sheffield last year, absolutely amazing, just a pity you didn't play 'push me on' that's a banger. Can't wait for the new album! Well done guys, pure brilliance.x
Ive just jizzed my two tone y fronts!
What a song!
So fitting with whats going on at present, love it! ❤️👌
Lol!!!!
Andy and jezz.are incredible. Imagine having twins that talented
The Williams clan must be impressed
I'm so happy to finally hear the new song! Those two guitar leads were amazing and the whole song was just wonderful. Thanks!
So happy to see new stuff coming. Love it so far.

Es como si Andalucía continuara con esta hermosa melodía. De verdad, gracias por hacer canciones como estas. Verdadero arte. Su imaginación es infinita muchachos
Amazing I love every song on the album just like all previous albums.. so glad they are back...wow
im excited i waited a long time for a new album from them

Absolutely love Doves. So great they are back, two new amazing tracks sounding better than ever!
So flippin' glad for new DOVES music!! Loved every single note since I first heard "Catch the Sun" on CMJ compilation, issue #87, November 2000. Gonna be hard to top Kingdom of Rust. Definitely in my Top-10 all-time favorite albums. But the two new songs are so strong!! Cheers from the U.S. (Nashville Tennessee)!
This was a TH-cam suggestion...Never heard of this band until now (live in the U.S.) Like it
I implore you to check out their other stuff, especially Catch The Sun, Caught By the River, Pounding basically everything
Welcome. There are no dud albums here.
Wow. Quarantine. This is making me envious of the early 2000s trying to get a taxi home from a Doves concert. 3 hours to walk home cause I have been showered in piss. Taxi got one whiff and drove off. I'd trade that for today.
This is IT ! Triumph, Epic !!!! Cheers from Greece!
No hay manera de no querer escucharlos una y otra vez
Welcome back fellas. We’ve needed you
Amazing!! I’m glad you’re back guys!! I'm looking forward to seeing you live here in Australia. ❤️❤️
Simply amazing👌 havent waited for a new album this much for many many years
I love that melody.
10 years gone by, and they're still just as good. definitely no rust in the kingdom of doves.
WE NEED YOU GUYS MORE THAN EVER! Thank you so much for this, lads. -USA
Hermoso, fantástico y con gran emoción, todo eso siento cuando veo este video. Gracias Doves por producir un disco y recobrar tantos buenos recuerdos. Una de las mejores bandas actuales de UK.
Need MUCH more of this in my life, doves are the answer!
Kinda remind me of Andalucia...and i love it!!!
Song of the year.
