2024 , early morning , making my kids packed lunches , tears in my eyes . Such a beautiful song ❤
This makes me cry every single time I listen to it. She encapsulates the times we live in so elegantly - the darkness, the light, the dismay, the hope, and everything in-between. I was fortunate enough to meet Kate on my first night in London ever, and the sincerity in her eyes gave me goosebumps. Truly a voice of a generation. Thank you for what you do, Kate, we love you!
Didn't meet her properly but I saw her years ago supporting scrobius in Bristol. I was sold instantly for the same reasons. Great work Kate as ever
So beautiful
This song broke me during quarantine, it explained everything happening in my head
I drove 16 hours across 5 countrys to see her performing in Brighton and i regret nothing! 🖤
@@naomireed8972 Hi! :) So your comment made me go on a bit of a hunt, I cant spot the man saying "fantastic" but this version has the Eiffel tower :) th-cam.com/video/nWwVFywBCeY/w-d-xo.html
wow, no song or rhythm has ever touched my soul like this. Just incredible
I woke up and this was the first song on the radio (WTMD). It was everything I've been feeling but couldn't say. I keep crying and sharing. This is the most beautiful thing.
I stood on a cold Northern Japan train platform as the weak sun pissed its first rays at me. This came on. This was so many years ago. Yet I stil stand.
Thanks so much 6 music for introducing me to Kate Tempest. She’s brilliant.
Same here. Heard this on 6 Music yesterday morning whilst making breakfast and have spent the whole weekend so far listening, watching and crying over everything I find.
I think, it's the realisation that someone else gets it. Just like you do. Just like we all should and probably really do deep down. /rant. x
Discovered Kate recently. Really blew me away. She's a phenomenal artist. An appropriate name too. Thank you Kate, all the very best from Eire!
Wow. Just wow. I cried.
I love Kate's writing. Simply brilliant.
2022 and still wondering, why this hasn't 2,4m likes.
I'm 67 and German. This means I'm slow! So I heard and then read this text a week ago for the first time. And now I feel a strong urge to say something I've been thinking often during the last years: They can take Britain out of the EU - but never out of my heart. To me Kae is the newest in a long line of British geniuses who produced the music and the texts to which I was raised. I'm so glad these big islands are still were they always were (relatively speaking) and no politician will move them elsewhere.
this is just so BEAUTIFUL and PERFECT.
it is helping people and YOU are helping people.
helping the little bitty steps happening.
and the big steps happening.
and no matter what we are doing it TOGETHER.
THANK YOU for this beautiful gift.
Kae has lifted me. Thank you, Kae.
Brings to the surface. Reaches in and pulls the truth into full view. Thank you for your beautiful voice in a world of untruths. May God continue to use your vision and voice and take you deeper into all truth.
stunning
This is the perfect song and music video for the crisis we’re in right now😔
So very, very beautiful.
when i hear this song from my mom it makes me sad im like her i feel her and i can see threw her face she calls me a healer i feel bad for people but only sad ones this world need to hear this truely.
I still love this a year after Facebook borrowed it and gave you no cred. Keep it up Kate - you're the voice of reason!
So beautiful
Bonjour j'ai un certain âge et je vois depuis longtemps le monde évoluer et quand je vois ce que votre monde devient c'est terrible mais suis contente que vous n'abendonnez pas.j'adore ce que vous faites 🎶🎼🌈🌞💕💕👍
forever relevant to the soul
thank you Kate
The first time I heard this I couldn't understand a word the performer was saying but I understood every thing that was said. I loved what it was saying and still do.
Really like this !
Poetic and beautifully said. We are all one despite the divisions being opposed on us
Hits me even harder now than in 2019.
Wow. The original version gave me so much, but this just ripped open a whole new way of seeing this track.
Sophie Turner Completely!
This song is perfect for 2020
Anyone watching this in March 2020 thinking this is totally IT
Definitely
She gets it dont she
I’m watching it in March 2021 😏
definitely
@Uall
April 2022/but when/where i first heard it was 2o18? i had a fm radio in California that could get 2 stations that weren't drek, a college radio & one public NPR station & was the New Yorker radio show interview hour long of Kae, & the interview (check it out)
ended with them playing Peoples Faces, a whole 5+ minute version, ✨ & when it ended i shut off the radio, i didn't want any sound to pollute my ears, or fade the impression it made, not after hearing Kates ✓oice, u know?
& i cried, stopped me dead in my tracks.
to know that me & my shitty little radio had just been to church that morning for an hour.
bless our hearts.
This is a beautiful song for what should be if only for more beautiful times
this...
Really, one for our times, everywhere, for everyone of us, dear Kate. Thank you.
Kate, you are expressing exactly what I feel!
It’s hard, we got our heads down and our hackles up
Backs against the wall, I can feel you aching
None of this was written in stone
There is nothing we’re forbidden to know
And I can feel things changing
Even when I’m weak and I’m breaking
I’ll stand weeping at the train station
‘Cause I can see your faces
There is so much peace to be found in people’s faces
👏🏼👏🏻👏Warm beautiful sound, mixed with cold truths. Brilliant job, love this!!
Exactly that :-)
So good.
Love love love ❤️
So good! 😭
Thank you. That was beautiful.
just great
watching this in 20201 and it links really well with right now. the world is struggling and the world isn't the same.
Why hasn't this gone viral? It completely encapsulates the now.
Mind you - I'm still waiting for the (Belgravia Version).
Great song, great video 👌
heard that randomly in Icelandic radio... sticks with you, amazing work!
If you are watching this is 2020 you are feeling this.
Kate, you need to do more work. I'm glad to see new stuff
fAntastic
I love you Kate. Love this very much so
It's coming to pass
My countries coming apart
The whole thing's becoming
Such a bumbling farce
Was that a pivotal historical moment
We just went stumbling past?
Here we are
Dancing in the rumbling dark
So come a little closer
Give me something to grasp
Give me your beautiful
Crumbling heart
Another disaster.
Catharsis
Another half-discarded mirage
Another mask slips
I face off with the physical
My head's ringing from the love of the stars
There is too much pretence
here
Too much depends on the fragile wages
And extortionate rents
here
We're working every dread day that is given us
Feeling like the person people meet
Really isn't us
Like we're going to buckle underneath the trouble
Like any minute now
The struggle's going to finish us
And then we smile at all our friends
It's hard
We got our heads down and our hackles up
Our back's against the wall
I can feel you aching
None of this was written in stone
There is nothing we're forbidden to know
And I can feel things changing
Even when I'm weak and I'm breaking
I'll stand weeping at the train station
'Cause I can see your faces
There is so much peace to be found in people's faces
I saw it roaring I felt it clawing at my clothes like a grieving friend
It said
There are no new beginnings
Until everybody sees
That the old ways need to end
But it's hard to accept that we're all one and the same flesh
Given the rampant divisions between oppressor, complicit and oppressed
But we are though
More empathy
Less greed
More respect
All I've got to say has already been said
I mean, you heard it from yourself
When you were lying in your bed and couldn't sleep
Thinking couldn't we be doing this
Differently?
I'm listening to every little whisper in the distance singing hymns
And
I can I can feel things
Changing
But it's so hard
We got our heads down and our hackles up
Our back's against the wall
I can feel your heart racing
None of this was written in stone
The currents fast but the river moves slow
And I can feel things changing
Even when I'm weak and I'm breaking
I stand weeping at the train station
'Cause I can see your faces
There is so much peace to be found in people's faces
It's not enough
To imagine we'll be happy when we've
Got enough Stuff
All this stuff Is blocking us
I'm neat with no chaser
I'm all spirit
But I'm sinking
Coz the days are not days but strange symptoms
This age is our age
But our age is rage sinking to beige
And yes our children are brave
But their mission is vague
Now I don't have the answers
But there are still things to say
I stare out at my city on another difficult day
And I scream inwardly
When will this change
I'm beginning to fade
But my sanity's saved 'cause
I see your faces
My sanity's saved 'cause
I can see your faces
It's hard
We got our heads down and our hackles up
Our back's against the wall
I can feel your heart racing
None of this was written in stone
The current's fast but the river moves slow
And I can feel things changing
Even when I'm weak and I'm breaking
I stand weeping at the train station
'Cause I can see your faces
I love people's faces.
"We've lost our connection to mythology. I find that kind of troubling" Kate Tempest
Rediscover your Roots & Heritage:
Robin & Ivanhoe, Arthur & Merlin, Alfred & Brutus.
Rhiannon & Blodeuwedd, Hilda & Aethelflaed, Juliana of Norwich & Margery Kempe, Boudicca & Cartimandua.
Love our peoples, love our pale north sea island faces, live & give life so that we have a future & the efforts & glories of the past have not been in vain.
Don't waste the Greatness, Britons have so much more to Give.
GodsOwnPrototype I used to live in NZ and when people asked me about where I’m from I’d say “I’m a tough little fucker from an island propped up by tough little fuckers like me”
"The person we could be" not "the person people meet" just fyi
Thnx, I also wanted to read the poem and hear her voice
Beautiful voice Kate! :3
And beautiful words !
love to listen to this
Beautiful! You are amazing!
Fantastic, love it.
so nice i watched it twice. Kate get fown to XR London and perform it at a 'pivotal historical moment'
I makes me sad because it is speaking the truth from people's face and how u can fell thing change how u have to look for the peace in people's face and it can be sad to leave your friend during this pandemic
I love your face. I love your heart.
After discovering this amazing artist I feel a gamut of emotions when I listen to her.Am I in love?I must be in love.
Amazing? 🙄
Who knew how much more profound this song would become now in 2021
Bish this is the stuff
magnificence
I Love U
Quem viu a Kate no NOS PRIMAVERA SOUND no PORTO? ❤️
I hope Mike Skinner hears this and feels proud.
Anyone hear from "My Pride"?
me. I actually think this song kinda fits it cause of how Nothing finds joy in people like Feather and Hover despite everything that she goes through
yep ;w;
Yepers
Mi
Ye
This was penned two years, in 10 years time the first two lines will still be as relevant as they are today
It's coming to pass my countries coming apart, the whole things becoming such a bumbling farce
The 14 haters of this video are just soulless blobs of jelly with no belly.
why is this comment so funny to me lmao
All I've got to say has already been said
I mean, you heard it from yourself
...crucial
Oh how some youth--Kae Tempest as example are connected to Ntr/The Great Goddess/Creator Source... People's Faces retrieves from the abyss that has become this present failing system & world. Hallelujah!!!
Jan 2021
touching as always, i would love to meet you sometime. (i can not make it to the crossing border festival) Much love from the Netherlands.
She's playing around here this week
Kate Tempest: My Priestess.

I'm lying in my bed and I can't sleep
No puede ser en español
@Mordu See my other comment
What is Streatham about this. The drawing?
Sketch of the people waiting at the train station looked like Streatham Common station?
This is different to the album version of the song. Album version is a bit slower and has no beat. Streatham version was released later, not sure why it's called Streatham though...
@@jackellery5938 lol. Thanks man. I mean you didn't answer my question but thanks none the less. Yea i just wondered because I grew up in Streatham/clapham/Brixton i didn't really see anything the screamed south London specifically. I assume it was just recorded in old St Reatham
@@KaYem_inc quote from Kate: "...we made a version that was shorter and was more song-like, we are calling it the ‘Streatham Version’ as that is where Dan [Carey] is based. I really hope that it connects with you and that you feel it.”
perfect man. Now I can sleep. Thanks for clearing that up lol
Did you predict the future? It seems like this song was made just for the pandemic.
*Lévinas intensifies*
മലയാളി ഉണ്ടോ 🤔🤔🤔
Powerful?
lmao balls
Now this a song to break your heart for humanity to. 😢
