I hope Maximo Park take over the world - they deserve to be legends in there own life-time. What a great song to follow-up there first album. I can't stop watching it. Can't wait to see them live in Bristol. WE ARE MAXIMO PARK!
I would quite happily live in perpetual 2005/6. I saw so many great bands, bought so many great records. Now just memories... ah, old age, I never thought you would come.
I was just thinking the VERY same thing when hearing this tune after so long, that 2004-2008 period was like the golden age of indie/alternative bands, it was just everywhere you turned, if you scroll down the side of this page theres just a handful of the great bands that were going strong at the time. Memories...
@@Leonicles Man, has it been 16 years already? Wish I'd known how much of my life I had ahead of me then. I too am starting feel in that 'old' category :( Still a great song, though.
Brilliant song, brilliant Lyrics. Lov the way that it lifts at a few different levels. How many different songs have you dancing like a mad man while you are driving??!! Not many!! UP THE NORTHERN BOYS!!
Discovered this song on the radio last week, and haven't stopped listening to it yet!! I cant believe I've never heard of them before. I love most of there songs!! I've gone mad!!! I love his voice it's divine!!! changed my idea that only mainstream bands are good. Thanks maximo park
Massively got back into these over the last few weeks. Nearly didn't make it through the year and this has become a de facto soundtrack to me trying to rebuild my life. Happy New Year everyone!
This is such a great song. Everything coalesces to make it one of the best British songs ever written. A true classic that should be played at every indie disco throughout the UK.
"Love is a lie which means I've been lied to..." Great track and band!!! found this one while cruising in Project Gotham Racing on my xbox, AWESOME!!!!
I'd love to know how the they had the technology to make it appear seamlessly as if there was dozens of each of them, but not the ability to release it with more than 7 pixels
I'm not a man, I'm a machine Chisel me down until I am clean I buy books I never read And then I'll tell you some more about me Beneath the concrete there's a sound A muffled cry below the ground There is a poison in the air A mix of chemicals and fear manners are just hunches I'm not sure what they mean You're asking for commitment When I'm somewhere inbetween Never never try to gauge temperature When you tend to travel at such speed It's our velocity Is it cold where you are this time of the year? You didn't leave a scar A stream of numbers hit a screen And you're expected to know what they mean Throughout the conflict, I was serene I can't outrun the sadness I've seen Are you willing to resist The people you've never met? The devil's wheel revolves But it needs to be reset Never never try to gauge temperature When you tend to travel at such speed It's our velocity Please tell me is it cold where you are this time of the year? You didn't leave a scar I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore I'm just alone with these thoughts I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore I'm just alone with my thoughts I watched a film to change my feelings Strong enough to bear a burden If everyone became this sensitive I wouldn't have to be so sensitive If everyone became so sensitive Perhaps I wouldn't be so sensitive Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to Love is a lie, which means I've been lying too Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to Love is a lie I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore I'm just alone with these thoughts I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore I'm just alone with my thoughts Never never try to guage temperature When you tend to travel at such speed It's our velocity
I remember when I was younger playing burnout on my Xbox I had a whole Playlist of this band on the custom music list it let you have and there's nothing more satisfying than the syncing of destroying cars in a high speed race while listening to this band makes it all worth while.
they are not from newcastle paul smith is from Billingham in the northeast near middlesborough i should know he was in the year above me at school our accent sounds nothing like a goerdie either. he was always different and abit crazy!! maximo park are legends!!
Haha, I love Paul's everlasting energy in this! He seriously cannot stop jumping up and down, it's great! Plus, I love the colors and the filming is brilliant!! :) I love these guys, they're ah-mazing :)
I wish you could see my face... From an editing standpoint, this video is FREAKIN' AMAZING!!!!! I couldn't imagine trying to put this together. It's a fantastic song too... Just brilliant all around.
Maximo Park have managed to employ the most enthusiastic Keyboard player in the history of living Keyboard players.
i think he's awsome lol makes the vidio for me
damn i was gonna say that
not so sure about that, check out this guy th-cam.com/video/Pu01X3iJGpg/w-d-xo.html
Ah, he is not hearing japanese music
emf . arcade fire
12/2024. This band, this song is still awesome
This is one of my favorites from the Myspace era of indie. AMAZING song. A lot of Karaoke places do this song too!

+d walt the kooks, wombats? ? ps all is cyclical, i remember the 93-96 and 88-90 peaks too.....aren't we due another yet?
bobby crush?
Just live it what means something to you
Old age is a privilege not all will experience x
This song brings back so many memories.
This song is good, but the interval at 2:07 is the masterpiece of the entire song; a one in a million
Damn, if you were 20 when you wrote this (perhaps born in 1988?) you're now 35. Hope life has been good to you. I was born in 87, so feeling old AF rn
@@LeoniclesYou and me both bro
Yip ❤
@@Leonicles Man, has it been 16 years already? Wish I'd known how much of my life I had ahead of me then. I too am starting feel in that 'old' category :( Still a great song, though.
"Love is a lie which means i've been lied to, love is a lie which means i've been lying too"
Wow. You can really meditate on that one line for quite some time
not listened to this for years. it really is a brilliant song. so many different levels to it.
This is amazing, so packed with hooks, yet never overbearing.
Brilliant song, brilliant Lyrics. Lov the way that it lifts at a few different levels. How many different songs have you dancing like a mad man while you are driving??!! Not many!! UP THE NORTHERN BOYS!!
If anyone ever said this was officially man’s best ever song, I’d believe them
Discovered this song on the radio last week, and haven't stopped listening to it yet!!
I cant believe I've never heard of them before.
I love most of there songs!! I've gone mad!!!
I love his voice it's divine!!!
changed my idea that only mainstream bands are good.
Thanks maximo park
Massively got back into these over the last few weeks. Nearly didn't make it through the year and this has become a de facto soundtrack to me trying to rebuild my life. Happy New Year everyone!
Saw these live a few weeks back. Crowd went mental when this song came on. Love this band. Xx
I saw them live in 2009 with my ex in Australia. Still one of my favorite shows ever 🙂
This is such a great song. Everything coalesces to make it one of the best British songs ever written. A true classic that should be played at every indie disco throughout the UK.
It's a masterpiece IMO, it really goes places
Watched these guys last week in Liverpool. Simply amazing live. Paul Smith is a true showman
Saw him in Luxemburg when a girl cries " i Love you" and he answered quite cool " thank you"
Many fond memories of being 20 years old in the pub with my mates or trying to tune some bird and having tunes like this one play. Great stuff
"Love is a lie which means I've been lied to..." Great track and band!!! found this one while cruising in Project Gotham Racing on my xbox, AWESOME!!!!
I wish there was higher quality video from earlier TH-cam
bbc6 music played it this morning - been my earworm all day! love it!
Life saving music
thats for sure
Fantastic. Such a catchy song and with punchy, different lyrics on top of that ^^ Love it.
They were awesome last night.
8 thumbs up.
I'd love to know how the they had the technology to make it appear seamlessly as if there was dozens of each of them, but not the ability to release it with more than 7 pixels
INDONESIA HADIR 🗿
LOL
Coming from September 23 and still love this 🤟🏽
this song will forever remain golden it's so great ahh
this is the best song ever :D
Fav Track 10 years ago, was 14 back than now 24
same
Must be reassuring that it all adds up as expected.
this is the best!! absolutely amazing! i already want this c.d.!!!
still know all the lyrics. bangin.
love is a lie which means i've been lied to...
best band on earth, love you guys
i've not heard this song for ages wow
"Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to. Love is a lie, which means I've been lying too."
Fantastic.
I'm not a man, I'm a machine
Chisel me down until I am clean
I buy books I never read
And then I'll tell you some more about me
Beneath the concrete there's a sound
A muffled cry below the ground
There is a poison in the air
A mix of chemicals and fear
manners are just hunches
I'm not sure what they mean
You're asking for commitment
When I'm somewhere inbetween
Never never try to gauge temperature
When you tend to travel at such speed
It's our velocity
Is it cold where you are this time of the year?
You didn't leave a scar
A stream of numbers hit a screen
And you're expected to know what they mean
Throughout the conflict, I was serene
I can't outrun the sadness I've seen
Are you willing to resist
The people you've never met?
The devil's wheel revolves
But it needs to be reset
Never never try to gauge temperature
When you tend to travel at such speed
It's our velocity
Please tell me is it cold where you are this time of the year?
You didn't leave a scar
I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone with these thoughts
I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone with my thoughts
I watched a film to change my feelings
Strong enough to bear a burden
If everyone became this sensitive
I wouldn't have to be so sensitive
If everyone became so sensitive
Perhaps I wouldn't be so sensitive
Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to
Love is a lie, which means I've been lying too
Love is a lie, which means I've been lied to
Love is a lie
I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone with these thoughts
I've got no-one to call in the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone with my thoughts
Never never try to guage temperature
When you tend to travel at such speed
It's our velocity
Great Band live, just home from their Galway, Ireland gig, Great show . . savage songs!! and this is a quality song!!
Fuckin lit the guy on the keyboards is killin it with the moves lmao absolute fuckin tunes all day long
Awesome track, enough said.

Was a little obsessed with maximo back in the day seen em loads of time and alway excellent
I LOVE THEM THEY ARE AWESOME but this is my first time hearing them
Definitely their best song, I'm just addicted.
2007 o.O I'm getting old.
My first reaction "that's only 7 years ago".
My second reaction "I don't think 7 years is all that long. I'm getting old"
świetna piosenka !!! energetyczna, jak dla mnie to najlepsza do słuchania w samochodzie!!!!!
great !!!!!!
That keyboardist though, so much energy in him lol
Amazing band, absolutely amazing song!
Didn´t expect the new single to be that brilliant and catchy.
Can´t wait to see them live in Germany...
Never seen anyone play the keyboard like that before!
He's far crazier live, star jumps and all!
This song is totaly immense!. Best band.
Great song great video, worn out just watching it!!!! lol
Excellent song, great, quirky video! Song of the year so far for me.
I refuse to believe this song is eight years old.
+10
When I saw them 10 years ago in June they played this lol. My mate is going to see them in Portsmouth on Saturday, well jealous
At the time I remember my girlfriend saying " are you listening to this again ?" Its one of those tracks that I hate to end, love it !
is the guy on the keyboards orite?.
still loving that song, you can't keep your hands and feet resting while listening to it.
“If everyone became this sensitive perhaps I wouldn’t have to be so sensitive”
Maximo Park predicted 2019 right there...👆
Are you sure you understand that lyric correctly and aren't simply misinterpreting it to fit your narrative?
this song was so important in letting me in on a world of great guitar music in around early 2007.
Project Gotham Racing 4 brought me here.
Thumps up me too
Hell yeah
Me too hell yeah
Exactly. How could you *not* rock out hearing this song?
They remind me a small bit of the wombats
I remember when I was younger playing burnout on my Xbox I had a whole Playlist of this band on the custom music list it let you have and there's nothing more satisfying than the syncing of destroying cars in a high speed race while listening to this band makes it all worth while.
I remember when I used to listen to this on MTV every morning before I went to school ... Back when MTV played real music!
i haven't listened to these guys in a while, but i can tell i'm going to have a maximo park binge tonight!!!
I ve got noone to call
in the middle of the night anymore
I'm just alone
With my thoughts
Great song gyus,
Dino from Rotterdam.

what they produce is pure indie-pop-rock.. ah! superb!

I love the colorful pixels that go along with this song
Loving the melody, and keyboard.
I'm into extreme metal and yet I love this song. It's honest, that's why. Hats off to Maximo Park and their fans.
Ah, this song will always have a very special place in my heart. It introduced me to the Park in the first place. :)

THUMBS UP
Maximo Park + IOW Festival = BRILLIANT.

I saw them on London Live, I immediately rushed out to by the CD....AWEEESSOOMMME! Kids are sick again, my favourite song, quite apt...lol
I love this song...
They used to have this on Nexons Audition.. (It was like 185 BPM) God How I loved dancing to it.
Reading Nostradamus I noticed he mentions a band of people who will bring peace and harmony to the world. THIS IS THAT BAND!
i've nearly cracked it now, just trying to imitate what he does on the vid, i've watched it about a gazillion times!
he makes it look so easy!
Love is a lie which means I've been lied to.
Love is a lie which means I've been lying too.
Love is a lie!
Genius.
EPICNESS !!!!
