Me and my now late girlfriend got to see you guys live in Dallas 2 years ago. She had been such a fan of both Men I Trust and TOPS, but I was always a very casual listener and would mostly hear them when she played it. It wasn't until the live performance of this song in particular I would truly call myself a fan. Now that she's gone, I can't help but come back and listen to these songs in a new light, but I like to look back on those times as some of the most precious moments I will ever experience. We waited for hours outside the venue so she could meet Jane especially but she got caught up that night and wasn't able to make it. She loved this band and everything it meant, so I will never be truly able to express how grateful I am for TOPS. That performance was some of the happiest I have ever seen her and I am eternally thankful she got to see you guys one time before she passed away.
I actually cannot believe how good this song is. Timeless comes to mind! Absolutely loving the tone of old on this release and last LP. You guys got a real groovy thing going on atm ;)
The most underrated band ever! How are they not absolute giants? I guess all we've got is to enjoy while we can. If they ever come to Brazil, I'LL STOP EVERYTHING TO WATCH THEM
Tops is a little bit of sanity in an insane world. I started college back in 1989. This music reminds me of those times. Tops would have been huge back in the 80s. It's a damn shame they are not huge now. ....-an old guy who is a fan
This song was my #1 of 2022. I heard it in a Winners yesterday - if that means that I have the same taste as a Winner's AV guy then so be it, this shit still grooves just as hard 8 months later.
I was shock i heard this song in Apple after my playlist is finished while we are driving to eat in a family restaurant from our hometown mall (us beef style). this reminds me when i got home to my hometown from a far distance work. Its so heart touching and timely.
just came back from my mini vacation to berlin, which included seeing Tops live. amazing evening. being as good live as on a studio recording is an artform.
Starting up Your Chevrolet to packed crowds Back in the heyday backfires Like the bravado You did your best to downplay Your mistakes Are sitting center stage Just like you made them The American way All of your mistakes Are sitting center stage Just like you made them With only the seasons keeping time Who do you wanna be there by your side? Burning up beacon, casting light Over the empty seats, night after night Solo, a dying star Wants to dance over again Perfected steps were so big back then Ain't nobody singing along (Ain't no one remember that song) No one remembers that song Holding on to diminishing dawn Laying down All you do is clown around In bed with your lady Pair of die, roll 'em on a rent a night Throw it all on layaway Your mistakes Are sitting center stage Just like you made them The American way All of your mistakes Are sitting center stage Just like you made them With only the seasons keeping time Who do you wanna be there by your side?

Come get your slice of life There she is, paradise You could stay a while but it wouldn't suffice Yeah you know, she's real nice By now you've been there too many times You arrive at the fight Want a piece of me? In spite of yourself Feel the pressure, but why? Wanna be something Come get your slice of life The more you want, the more you miss The more you wish that you had it But when it all falls down around you Will you see how it happened? You arrive at the fight (The more you want, the more you miss) (The more you wish that you had it) In spite of yourself Feel the pressure, but why? (But when it all falls down around you) (Will you see how it happened?)

they can't keep getting away with this!
How is this band not world wide famous at this point
Ahh the key change at 3:35 is perfection 🥹

They are definitely a modern Fleetwood Mac band
shifting gears mid song, nice finish
jane went to get a glass of water probably 🤣
The whole song is lovely, but the shift in the melody near the end especially is WONDERFUL, I love it so much
Me, an empath, sensing the steps are perfected:
Love the Steely Dan vibes
This will be our song for Summer 2022!
summer ep!
Destined to be my 2022 summer jam. So goooooooood! How I love this band.
You have Steely Dan shakin in their boots. Love it. Slick af

Starting up
Your Chevrolet to packed crowds
Back in the heyday backfires
Like the bravado
You did your best to downplay
Your mistakes
Are sitting center stage
Just like you made them
The American way
All of your mistakes
Are sitting center stage
Just like you made them
With only the seasons keeping time
Who do you wanna be there by your side?
Burning up beacon, casting light
Over the empty seats, night after night
Solo, a dying star
Wants to dance over again
Perfected steps were so big back then
Ain't nobody singing along
(Ain't no one remember that song)
No one remembers that song
Holding on to diminishing dawn
Laying down
All you do is clown around
In bed with your lady
Pair of die, roll 'em on a rent a night
Throw it all on layaway
Your mistakes
Are sitting center stage
Just like you made them
The American way
All of your mistakes
Are sitting center stage
Just like you made them
With only the seasons keeping time
Who do you wanna be there by your side?
Burning up beacon, casting light
Over the empty seats, night after night
Solo, a dying star
Wants to dance over again
Perfected steps were so big back then
Ain't nobody singing along
(Ain't no one remember that song)
No one remembers that song
Holding on to diminishing dawn
Solo, a dying star
Solo, a dying star
Wants to dance over again
Perfected steps were so big back then
No one remembers that song
(Ain't no one remember that song)
Barely holding on
Holding on to diminishing dawn
Roller coaster, coming down
Wonderland is hitting the ground
Letter Z, pocket size
You're winning but you don't realize
You arrive at the fight
Want a piece of me?
Come get your slice of life
There she is, paradise
You could stay a while but it wouldn't suffice
Yeah you know, she's real nice
By now you've been there too many times
You arrive at the fight
Want a piece of me?
In spite of yourself
Feel the pressure, but why?
Wanna be something
Come get your slice of life
The more you want, the more you miss
The more you wish that you had it
But when it all falls down around you
Will you see how it happened?
You arrive at the fight
(The more you want, the more you miss)

I would like to have that disc cover as a sticker
I love it!
No puedo dejar de escuchar esta gema de la musica 😍
That riff at 0:26 is soooo familiar but I can't place it
Yes! It’s a 90s funk song that’s escaping me…
@@xxLivvy212xx I'm almost certain that it might be a slowed down sample from "Sultans of Swing"
oh shit
basically fleetwood mac on crack n todays vibes lmao , love it

What a great song. Too bad the only way a song like this can get big these days is if bruno mars was featured or something
