White Lies (UK) represent the top of Indie. They still make great albums u can listen as whole. Hate how now lots of popular bands, just go with singles... With Editors some songs i found same joy as many years ago when heard White Lies: Bigger than us!
For anyone who wonders what a sleep twitch is. When you are falling asleep sometimes your legs make involuntary movements. Mostly a kicking motion that comes without notice.
tweakradje It's called a myoclonic jerk. It's your body reacting to your falling asleep thinking that you are dying so it sends impulses to your extremities to check.
I’m here after my Editors concert in Italy... oh my god. Everyone have to listen to one of their live to feel this energy, this power... really they’re one of my favourite band, I follow them since this beautiful song, what can I say, pure bliss
I love the editors for their unique keyboard sound,and more for the fact that they manage to make each single song sound different,the mastery of that instrument just blows me away each time.
My favorite..." It kicks like a sleep twitch...you will choke,choke on the air you try to breath"😍perfect tune and rythm for a run or to dance on!❤❤🎵🎶🎹🥁
Saw this band in Glasgow in June. They sound great live and put on a good show. They ended their set with this number. I liked a couple of their songs before I saw them, now they are one of my favourite bands. I love their sound and lyrics.
i saw these guys live when seeing muse, and i have to say, not only are they awesome live, the lead singer has he most kick ass eyebrows in the universe.
I have still another suggestion. Depeche Mode, New Order, Joy Division. Perhaps less known: THE SOUND. I like their second album: "From the Lion's Mouth".
GOD. This video is so powerful and overwhelming it forces you to get out and start running like craaaazy. I've never felt the music of a song play inside me so much
It's amazing how this music video represents life. The tunnel in the beginning representing a baby being born, then you meet the first two persons of your life (your parents), then you get the rest of your family around you, and at somepoint your friends. And you live with all of them around you for a while. As the time passes by, these people will eventually die, and you'll meet your fate too, but alone.
I remember getting ready for school, watching Freshly Squeezed on channel 4 and hearing this for the first time. At the end of the show they'd debut a brand new, unreleased song and it's video. This was one of them, and it's so fresh in my mind still. Fell in love with it immediately, it's such a tune.
I grew up listening to my older sisters British Invasion tunes. Depeche Mode was my favorite band due to the poetic, bittersweet, somewhat dark, yet absolutely romantic songs. I found the Editor's and OMG, they took over the #1 favorite band spot in my heart, they hit the spot I've been trying to fill my entire life.
This makes me nostalgic for the 80s. I love it. Running, running... running out of time. The concept of this video goes deeper than most realize. Listen to the lyrics.
It blows my mind that this is a song from 2009. I first heard it at the Whitby Goth Weekend events I attended in the mid 2010s and it fit in so well with all the 80s stuff that was played I had a hard time finding out what the song even was until much later.
This is just like life, You start your life running alone, people gather with you and then run with you for a while, but in the end, you´re always alone.
el video me encanto lo interpre asi: estas en una carrera (la vida) pero no estas solo, muchos corren junto a ti en las misma circunstancias, pero sin importar que haya mucha gente a tu alrededor al final es tu carrera y la corres solo, es tu reto. Recordando lo mas importante que nunk debes olvidar: que aunque tu carrera termine, el camino seguira ahi intacto... hagas lo que hagas el seguira ahi....
Make our escape, you're my own Papillon. (00:15) The world turns too fast, feel love before it's gone. It kicks like a sleep twitch! My papillon, feel love when it shone. It kicks like a sleep twitch! Darling, just don't put down your guns yet. (01:16) If there really was a God here, He'd have raised a hand by now. Now darling, you're born, get old and die here. Well, that's quite enough for me. We'll find our own way home somehow. No sense of doubt of what you could achieve. (02:02) Well, I've found you out, I've seen the life you wish to leave, But when it kicks like a sleep twitch, You will choke, choke on the air you try to breathe. It kicks like a sleep twitch! Darling, now just don't put down your guns yet. (02:48) If there really was a God here, He'd have raised a hand by now. Darling, well, you're born, get old and die here. Well, that's quite enough for me, dear. We'll find our own way home somehow. It kicks like a sleep twitch! It kicks like a sleep twitch!
I got into them through the latest album In Dream. . If this is how he sounds like on the older albums then he really sounds more unique in In Dream. . The Ian Curtis similarities disappear when he sings above as well as below that zone. .
I must say, I really do like the style of singing in this song. The singer has such a powerful tone to his voice, unlike a lot of the new music these days. Brilliant song! =]
Amo el ritmo de esta canción, amo lo que dice y lo que significa para mi. Siempre me recordará a esa chica de ojos verdes y gran corazón 💚 La amo y no podré olvidarla.
Papillon was my introduction to Editors 15 years ago. I remember this video was featured on a Sonic Seducer (German Goth magazine) CD/DVD. Ironically enough I didn't like the song at first but the more I listened to it the more it grew on me. Now it's one of my favourite Editors songs. Funny how life works sometimes. C'est la vie.
Make your escape You're my own papillon The world turns too fast Feel love before it's gone It kicks like a sleep twitch My papillon Feel love when it's shone It kicks like a sleep twitch Darling Just don't put down your guns yet If there really was a God here He'd have raised a hand by now Now darling You're born, get old, then die here Well that's quite enough for me We'll find our own way home somehow No sense of doubt Or what you could achieve Well, I found you out I've seen the life you wish to leave But when it kicks like a sleep twitch You will choke Choke on the air you try to breathe It kicks like a sleep twitch Darling Just don't put down your guns yet If there really was a God here He'd have raised a hand by now Darling You're born, get old, then die here Well, that's quite enough for me, dear We'll find our own way home somehow How, how It kicks like a sleep twitch It kicks like a sleep twitch Darling Just don't put down your guns yet If there really was a God here He'd have raised a hand by now Darling Oh, you're born, get old, then die here Well, that's quite enough for me, dear We'll find our own way home somehow It kicks like a sleep twitch It kicks like a sleep twitch
Ciao Flavia, mio marito Gigi è un grande fan degli Editors. Ha comprato 2 biglietti x Pinkpop il 16 giugno , ma non trova un compagno di viaggio. Ti può interessare? Grazie
2023 still on fire... ❤
It takes me back to those times...
Sooo much wonderful music was created!
This guys voice is phenomenonal.
This band, together with White Lies are so underrated, they are so awesome, the best indie rock of our time.
Try slow readers club, start with lunatic 😎
Or the Presets - if I know you!
Absolutely....so good.....they play from the heart....toss it to the wind....its about the tune.
White Lies (UK) represent the top of Indie. They still make great albums u can listen as whole.
Hate how now lots of popular bands, just go with singles...
With Editors some songs i found same joy as many years ago when heard White Lies: Bigger than us!
One of my fav shows
This is simply one of the best songs ever made.
For anyone who wonders what a sleep twitch is.
When you are falling asleep sometimes your legs make involuntary movements.
Mostly a kicking motion that comes without notice.
Also one of the main causes of couples having heated arguments in the bed room. "You KICKED me!" "Wuh-Wha? I was sleeping..."
tweakradje It's called a myoclonic jerk. It's your body reacting to your falling asleep thinking that you are dying so it sends impulses to your extremities to check.
***** Yeah..i thought you were talking about my friend Mylo who has a spasmic colon. So he would be a Mylocolonicjerk.
+tweakradje I'm wondering what the hell a papillon has to do with running
tweakradje probably when some one is detoxing they can get involuntary twitches, especially when they're sleeping or stationary.
I’m here after my Editors concert in Italy... oh my god.
Everyone have to listen to one of their live to feel this energy, this power... really they’re one of my favourite band, I follow them since this beautiful song, what can I say, pure bliss
Best parkour video I've ever seen
The best lyrics writer ...Tom smith. "feel love before it's gone"" i have seen the life you wished to live "
Magnifique j’adore 👍 ses tellement super je pense à vous tousse bonne journée et merci pour tout 🙏🙏😇😇
This song made my oldies list. My 2 young sons will grow up knowing this classic!
I love the editors for their unique keyboard sound,and more for the fact that they manage to make each single song sound different,the mastery of that instrument just blows me away each time.
Well unique is not the right word if you heard Kraftwerk or Depeche Mode.
But how these pieces fit is amazing
My favorite..." It kicks like a sleep twitch...you will choke,choke on the air you try to breath"😍perfect tune and rythm for a run or to dance on!❤❤🎵🎶🎹🥁

Search Steven Van Herreweghe
Holy shit this sounds awesome, it's kinda like a mix between joy division new order and depeche mode.
Anyone know a good album to start out with?
from editors or depeche mode, Joy division, new order . I had "an end as a start " and it was ok.
an end has a start
lisent the new division is the best
if you like this type of music you need to lisent the new division
I have still another suggestion. Depeche Mode, New Order, Joy Division.
Perhaps less known: THE SOUND. I like their second album: "From the Lion's Mouth".
Bellissima, stupenda fa vibrare le corde del cuore e della memoria. Potrei salire in paradiso su queste note!!!!!
I always found this song so fascinating. To me it was able to catch the (very specific) feeling of urgency. I love it
GOD. This video is so powerful and overwhelming it forces you to get out and start running like craaaazy. I've never felt the music of a song play inside me so much
"Sweet dreams are made of love, who am I to disagree...." - wearing those 80s loving hearts firmly on their sleeves!
Wow, I can't believe I forgot how much I truly love this song... Fantastic song, fantastic band.
Still loving this in 2020 ,one of my all time favourites
It's amazing how this music video represents life. The tunnel in the beginning representing a baby being born, then you meet the first two persons of your life (your parents), then you get the rest of your family around you, and at somepoint your friends. And you live with all of them around you for a while. As the time passes by, these people will eventually die, and you'll meet your fate too, but alone.
im sure your a massive hit at parties with your upbeat attitude
or the director was just really into running...
LOL... i thought it was just a bunch of guys running for the hell of it..... :)
MrJustcause2010 LOL
***** try again
Kocham, kocham, kocham!!!Genialna piosenka, genialny zespół! Już nie mogę się doczekać ich 4 albumu, muszą go mieć w tym roku!!!

This was one of them, and it's so fresh in my mind still. Fell in love with it immediately, it's such a tune.
I remember hearing this for the first time on the radio.....it made me sit up and pay attention....superb
underrated band
Editors Live Amsterdam HMH, Best concert ever!!! 6-11-2015
Tom Smith really is a fantastic singer when performing live.
I grew up listening to my older sisters British Invasion tunes. Depeche Mode was my favorite band due to the poetic, bittersweet, somewhat dark, yet absolutely romantic songs. I found the Editor's and OMG, they took over the #1 favorite band spot in my heart, they hit the spot I've been trying to fill my entire life.

check Foals.
Even metal heads love this............let’s ROCK.
This makes me nostalgic for the 80s. I love it.
Running, running... running out of time. The concept of this video goes deeper than most realize. Listen to the lyrics.
I feel like this is your first time listening to The Editors. You've just taken a trip down the rabbit hole of new wave style indie pop, my friend.
MrBWednesday there's no 'the' in Editors
They really loved singing about running away from things in the 80's.
Also the beat is a sample from 1984 kraftwerk: tour de france! Awesome stuff
Reincarnation soul trap
You hear the sound of Depeche Mode in it and just love it
😀
+SimonSays2211 sound close to AND ONE or CAMOUFLAGE, not professional enough to reach DM, sorry
Robert k I mean that i here Depeche Mode and love DM
+SimonSays2211 It sounds 80's
Who loves DM, loves Editors so!
Outstanding regardless of version. Voice is as near god as we'll ever hear...
Thanks!
Listen listen listen again. The best from editors!
i'm totally in love with Tom's voice.
Baritones are very rare.
Shades of Eurythmics and Sisters of Mercy, Editors could fit in the 80's they are a talented bunch.
And kinda sound like depeche mode singer sometime
I see what you mean.
It blows my mind that this is a song from 2009. I first heard it at the Whitby Goth Weekend events I attended in the mid 2010s and it fit in so well with all the 80s stuff that was played I had a hard time finding out what the song even was until much later.
My God, Ian Curtis influence from beyond the grave is ubiquitous. Great band.
If Ian Curtis was singing for Depeche Mode. And it's brillant.
Sound depeche mode
I often think of this comparison for both editors and white lies. Brilliant bands
Mode Division
Deffo Ian Curtis influence
This is just like life, You start your life running alone, people gather with you and then run with you for a while, but in the end, you´re always alone.

.. honestly I must have heard this song hundreds or even thousands of times and I never get tired :)
If there ever was a face for determination,that was it...
Make our escape, you're my own Papillon. (00:15)
The world turns too fast, feel love before it's gone.
It kicks like a sleep twitch!
My papillon, feel love when it shone.
It kicks like a sleep twitch!
Darling, just don't put down your guns yet. (01:16)
If there really was a God here,
He'd have raised a hand by now.
Now darling, you're born, get old and die here.
Well, that's quite enough for me.
We'll find our own way home somehow.
No sense of doubt of what you could achieve. (02:02)
Well, I've found you out, I've seen the life you wish to leave,
But when it kicks like a sleep twitch,
You will choke, choke on the air you try to breathe.
It kicks like a sleep twitch!
Darling, now just don't put down your guns yet. (02:48)
If there really was a God here,
He'd have raised a hand by now.
Darling, well, you're born, get old and die here.
Well, that's quite enough for me, dear.
We'll find our own way home somehow.
It kicks like a sleep twitch!
It kicks like a sleep twitch!

Thanks really helpful
Great one!
Seen live is Soo cool!
This is cracking because virtually everywhere else you look for the lyrics online - they're wrong!
This is a classic! I dance so many times this sound!! Love it!!
The most Hypnotic song in Music History!!!
WOW...I'm totally hearing shades of Ian Curtis :O
***** all this album!
I got into them through the latest album In Dream. . If this is how he sounds like on the older albums then he really sounds more unique in In Dream. . The Ian Curtis similarities disappear when he sings above as well as below that zone. .
same, it's crazy!
hallo 👋 de laatste w17648638d
Yeah.. and a little bit simple minds, new order..
Τhis guy in a single videoclip has run more than I have run all my life in the real world
geia sou re tony pou einai o manny??
Τόνυς Μοντάνας He's not run away as far as I have - metaphorically, I've been running all my life. it's what you do to survive in the world.
Τόνυς Μοντάνας ρε παντού είσαι εσύ ρε
i wonder if you like the edit, you might like this? soundcloud.com/nowquestionmark/try-to-deny
ha ha :)
Watched these live the other night....this song at the end ACE
Running like that and still not sweating.. Man what shirt do you wear?
It was a cold night, so the low temperature cooled their bodies down, hence there was no need for them to sweat.
Man, thanks for letting us know ... wouldn't have expected this low of a value !
This is one of the best bands I've ever heard.
If not the best.
My crush when I approach her.
Ahahaha
Aww 😂
gli Editors sono straordinari, la corsa della vita ognuno la corre con la propria Papillon, la farfalla simbolo di liberta' .
When I want to lose weight I lay down on the sofa and watch this video.
Lol, be one with the video... 😄
Running by osmosis never hurt anyone. 🤣
Me 2, i burn like 2000 calories just seeing these people running 💨😂 and later eat again
😂😂😂
Me too 😂😂😂
1) So much running
2) Where, how, and when did you find so many empty streets in a large city? O.o
3) Love this song!
that voice is unique
Why the hell i see these replies exactly the same in 2 different comments
Funny you say that, I think he sounds uncannily like Ian Curtis
Still so good.
Can't believe I am actually gonna see Tom. Loved Editors since Papillon and Munich; who wouldn't? In Magaluf in June.
This song kicks like a sleep twitch!
This video gives me strenght and determination. It's really great for starting a day! I love the piano riff =P
Cierto, ¿algún hispanohablante por aquí? v:
Aquí
SALUDOS DESDE CHILE, SE HAN CONVERTIDO EN UNA GRAN BANDA, LOS SIGO DESDE HACE BASTANTE TIEMPO, LOS ESCUCHE EN LAST FM,
legend.
i loved Editors, there was a period around 2007-2008 i was really hooked. Really underappreciated music.
I must say, I really do like the style of singing in this song. The singer has such a powerful tone to his voice, unlike a lot of the new music these days. Brilliant song! =]
Beautiful voice...
Just a brilliant song from one if my fave bands.
best videoclip ever. simple, but simply brilliant.
I keep hearing "It kicks like a sweet twix"
He say's:it kicks like a sleep twitch
every time I listen to this while walking on the street it gives me the almost undefeatable urge to burst out running
yep
Ach, wspomnienia... Kocham ten zespół!
Ja też!
One year since you passed ... I still remember you through this song my friend. ❤️
Amo el ritmo de esta canción, amo lo que dice y lo que significa para mi. Siempre me recordará a esa chica de ojos verdes y gran corazón 💚 La amo y no podré olvidarla.
que voz más majestuosa tiene.. adoro todas sus canciones y esta es única, run boy, run!
I don't care how old, this song is bananas!!!!
Ho conosciuto gli Editors proprio grazie a questa canzone. Ho amato tutte quelle che sono venute poi, ma questa è un pezzo del mio cuore❤
LOVE this song!!
I love this song!!
can't stop listen and loving this song... How could I so long without it?
Papillon was my introduction to Editors 15 years ago. I remember this video was featured on a Sonic Seducer (German Goth magazine) CD/DVD. Ironically enough I didn't like the song at first but the more I listened to it the more it grew on me. Now it's one of my favourite Editors songs. Funny how life works sometimes. C'est la vie.
Superbe chanson. J'en ai des frissons quand je l'écoute
nie
mogę
przestać
słuchać
powiew świeżości...
Prawda! Świetna piosenka!
I really love this song
I like the way the video is simplistic, yet it conveys a story of life.
vnv
One track.. Mind blowsome!!!
White Lies and Editors were just both tier 1 bands that were sadly overlooked because of not fitting the look or sound of the time 😮
What is this city?
Hi it's Los Angeles ☺️
It’s amazing that they filmed this video in downtown LA and there are ZERO shots of any graffiti anywhere….unbelievable!
Such a great video.
Can't believe i just found out this masterpiece..At some point i think I'm listening to Bigmouth strikes again!
This Beat!
The long haired guy with the black gown seems to be really enjoying himself.
If that guy was me, this video would be 30 seconds long
You are a kind of runner then
Guido Mista, the fastest gunslinger in all of Italy
Superheroluscheangeber
In my case 15 seconds, on a good day.😚😪
Lol
what an amazing song and video
Me running away from my responsibility’s as an adult in my 40’s and my regrets
My knees would not allow this anymore. Approaching my 60s.
Gotta love the New Order 'ahhhhh' noises in the background!
Yeah, I knew that. Think the song was called 'Uranium'.
Make your escape You're my own papillon The world turns too fast Feel love before it's gone
It kicks like a sleep twitch My papillon Feel love when it's shone
It kicks like a sleep twitch
Darling Just don't put down your guns yet If there really was a God here He'd have raised a hand by now Now darling You're born, get old, then die here Well that's quite enough for me We'll find our own way home somehow
No sense of doubt Or what you could achieve Well, I found you out I've seen the life you wish to leave
But when it kicks like a sleep twitch You will choke Choke on the air you try to breathe
It kicks like a sleep twitch
Darling Just don't put down your guns yet If there really was a God here He'd have raised a hand by now Darling You're born, get old, then die here Well, that's quite enough for me, dear We'll find our own way home somehow How, how
It kicks like a sleep twitch It kicks like a sleep twitch
Darling Just don't put down your guns yet If there really was a God here He'd have raised a hand by now Darling Oh, you're born, get old, then die here Well, that's quite enough for me, dear We'll find our own way home somehow
It kicks like a sleep twitch
It kicks like a sleep twitch
"IT KICKS LIKE A SLEEP TWICH!"
Loves it!
Okay, Smeagul 😂
Love this song and his voice. And a great video as a bonus.
This is such a perfect metaphor for LIFE.
Back to the 80s
2023....Papillon always in my head🤩
Ciao Flavia, mio marito Gigi è un grande fan degli Editors. Ha comprato 2 biglietti x Pinkpop il 16 giugno , ma non trova un compagno di viaggio. Ti può interessare? Grazie
This and Munich are such anthems. Underrated band
Whatever people say about Editors' third record, this is a truly kick ass song/vid
This gives me the same vibrations of "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" by Annie Lennox.
Genial...👋
