I cannot tell you relief I felt when I heard this for the first time. My brain finally found what it had been looking for. THE MOST underrated band in all of music. Of all time. Technically skilled musicians who are still loose and funky in complex rhythmic sequences, creating chaotic melodies, with lyrics that are meaningful and ring true to the core of humanity. You can’t even argue with me on this.
This band is incredibly underrated, they just happen to not have a single album that isn't great which is a huge accomplishment for a band that's released 5 albums.
I've had the pleasure of going to see them twice, and im only 16, learning what true music was at such a young age has taught what it feels like to truly just be yourself
I don't know why but your music makes me feel normal. I have aspergers syndrome and think that is maybe something that makes me feel i relate in a strange but wonderful way 😊😊
"Right above my head a miracle the sun erupt forever. I barely ever raise my eyes." "Remember how men, would understand the heavens? But leaving those streetlights on you can't see nothing there." I used to ignore these lyrics because I couldn't understand Jonathan, but now I feel like they're about how man has forgotten his place in the world. How we are all alive because of the sun, but none of us look up to see it because we're too busy living our lives.
My 11 month old loves this video, has since about 4 months. Wherever we are and however upset he may be, I put this on and he'll just stop and watch, sometimes does a little wiggle too. I think it's a combination of the visuals and the drum beat. Either way I'm sure about 200k of these views are courtesy of my boy!
everytime i listen to this band i get so fucking pissed they haven't blown up because they're genuinely one of the best bands I've ever heard. love these guys
In my opinion this means, as human beings our faith and belief in religion or god(this is what I get from "the heaven") is too strong but we are still so insecure about ourselves and our properties so that we can't even stand the idea of being in the dark(like turning the streetlights off) that could lead any problem.
Late to the party, but I think it's also a little about light pollution. Earlier in the song, he says "But leaving those streetlights on, you can't see nothing there..." Like how light pollution has blotted out the stars or milkyway, so quite literally, we understand the heavens and yet with all the lights on, we can not see them.
I've loved this band for a couple of years now. They're so fresh, and the composition is amazing. I know a bit about Bass, and the Bass player is...fantastic. Massively underrated. I'd love the opportunity to interview him if the opportunity ever arrived! Carry on being you, Everything Everything.
Man Alive is the only album i've ever listened to i've liked all of. Photoshop Handsome, this, MY KZ, UR BF, and QWERTY Finger are pure eargasm. I really wish i could understand the lyrics so I can sing along tho.
@ 1:29, every lyrics i can find says it says "teach me how to hold" but i find it impossible to not hear it as "the sky is gonna fall"?? what's going on?
I’ve read somewhere that Jon likes to make his lyrics sound ambiguous, makes his lyrics that much more interesting. Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if Jon was going for a two in one thing here.
Brother, you look like the Taj Mahal One colossal dome above you and the smell of something other A pillar and a scimitar, a little Yes, I miss you like a formless hide Stretching over me and dangled from the coastguard in a chopper The scaffold of me all awry, you little Broke your shoulder on the library steps Hanging 'round there in the dark just doing nothing or whatever What do you mean you saw the stars? You little And I could write it in a murder font I could say it in a way that would be lying or whatever I don't want them to tell us apart You say that I'm an overlord? I've got myself a fire hydrant with more tyrant In watery blasts than all of my past You seen me on the bridge a lot But I never leapt over the pent upper My number is up, my number is up But infinite and joyless little high fives are singing, "Praise the lord" And, "Pitter-patter this schooling? Is this schooling?" And, "You matter not" and, "You matter not" And is it the flogging of a Flintstone that I'm supposed to be? The cerebellum gets schooling and no schooling The drummer goes on, the drama goes on And I wouldn't wanna make a scene I don't wanna think about the third-world hunger or whatever 'Cause thinking always comes across a little And there's a meeting of the worlds tonight Right above my head, a miracle, the sun erupt forever I barely ever raise my eyes, a little (teach him how to hold) And oh, I wanna make the peace And God, I gotta be on the train past the ruins The wall and the druids, oh, please I'm whining like a braking bus Maybe, I can sit here and do nothing clever with a laser I'm not about to open up You say that I'm an overlord?

But leaving those streetlights on You can't see nothing there So learn me anything good (There's a matter approaching) And teach me something that works I take a long time To learn about the big one Gorilla limb swipe and beat And I learnt dick about Earth Remember good men Would understand the heavens?

I first listened to this band when I was like 10 or less but I just rediscovered this album and damn this music just doesn't get old.
Kameryn you so right about this
You are correct, sir
I don't know why but your music makes me feel normal. I have aspergers syndrome and think that is maybe something that makes me feel i relate in a strange but wonderful way 😊😊
2020 seems like a good year for a new Everything Everything album.
God I hope so
Latest pictures I've seen of them show them in the studio...
and now we've got in birdsong. album by the end of the year?
We're in luck ;)))

God I'm 10 years too late to the EE party but I can't get this track out of my heeeaaaddd!!! Love it!!
The interplay between the drums and bass on this is fantastic, especially from 3.08
You know your stuff. Intricate.
Isn't it
I'm usually concentrating on Higgs vocal but that bit blew my eyeballs out.
God. This is bloody fantastic.

Spoken like a true new Dad, completely in love with his kid. Good for you Toby Laws!
If I ever have a kid, I'm introducing them to this band. I could totally see a little kid completely *vibing* to something like this.
The bass in the second part doe
Bruh...
godlike
@@TheScramblerTV The bass line that convinced me to get a bass.
I like that these guys are being themselves and no one else
everytime i listen to this band i get so fucking pissed they haven't blown up because they're genuinely one of the best bands I've ever heard. love these guys
"Remember good man, you understand the heavens
but leaving those streetlights on."
too deep.
can you explain that part?
In my opinion this means, as human beings our faith and belief in religion or god(this is what I get from "the heaven") is too strong but we are still so insecure about ourselves and our properties so that we can't even stand the idea of being in the dark(like turning the streetlights off) that could lead any problem.

It’s about hoe u can’t see stars with the street lights on since it’s too bright
We all have to come back to this underrated masterpiece at some point.
this song means so much to me
Please promote these guys in the US Sony
Getting the whistle right at the beginning is so satisfying love you guys
wtf this song is really good, what a mastery.
what a banger man
genuinely pissed this doesn't have like 2 million views at LEAST, this song and music vid deserve so much more
Same
Wow same here
I want to go back to 2010, simpler nicer times, miss that decade so much!! No covid-19!! 😀
this song seriously scratches my brain, i love it so much
this keeps me alive
The reason why I can listen to this album for two years and not get bored.
Deeply underestimated band. For me this indicates how much potential there is, and it is truly overwhelming.
Their musical craft definitely shares something with 10CC - more music in one song than most artists achieve in an album.
One of my favourite songs ever.
What an underrated song and video by such an overlooked band!
Been listening to Everything Everything on a road trip and so far this is my favourite track. Wish I'd known about you guys earlier!
I love there songs especially cough cough and kemosabe
Same
Have you heard distant past its an awesome song
boy did you really respond to yourself
BlahGolem thats sad lmao
@@alexstone7674 how high were u lad
@@y2ktoon about 5"7'
love it, love it, love it, love it, love it, love it, love it, love it, love it, love it, love it, love it,
LOVE IT!!!
I am so impressed with this band, like WOW.
One of the best songs of the best album
i don't know which is better, the song or the video, nothing shorter from perfect either way
This has gotta be one of my favourites
Que temazo
I can't express how much I love this song!!!!!! :D
This song is about 456,843,752,732 views short. Amazing stuff.
This song gets me every single time !
wicked song
Everything everything! Yes I can't tell you how much I love their sound!
i have no idea what they are saying for half of it, but i love it.
Still love this tune, just the right level of cheekiness to the groove. Nom.
How can I listen to this song for a year and not get bored?
I love this band!
This one will always stay my favourite!
Can't wait to see these guys in Berlin this summer
such a good song. Please include this in your upcoming tour :D
I've loved this band for a couple of years now. They're so fresh, and the composition is amazing. I know a bit about Bass, and the Bass player is...fantastic. Massively underrated. I'd love the opportunity to interview him if the opportunity ever arrived!
Carry on being you, Everything Everything.
I remember seeing this in Topman in Guildford... Couldn't take my eyes off of the screen!
Man Alive is the only album i've ever listened to i've liked all of. Photoshop Handsome, this, MY KZ, UR BF, and QWERTY Finger are pure eargasm. I really wish i could understand the lyrics so I can sing along tho.
Video and track 10/10
just can't get enough! Everything Everything is everything I want from a band.
What a video,what a song,what a BAND.Best BAND!
The new prog rock pop
@ 1:29, every lyrics i can find says it says "teach me how to hold" but i find it impossible to not hear it as "the sky is gonna fall"?? what's going on?
I’ve read somewhere that Jon likes to make his lyrics sound ambiguous, makes his lyrics that much more interesting. Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if Jon was going for a two in one thing here.
Contemporary R&B at its best.
i love this band! wish they were more popular around where i live!!
God I missed this song why'd I stop listening to this band
This incredible song works so greta with the visuals, i just cant stop watching this
About bloody time! At last something worth listening to!!!! What a good group and this is only my 2nd song
Yes. So much yes.
Cannot stop listening to this
Brother, you look like the Taj Mahal
One colossal dome above you and the smell of something other
A pillar and a scimitar, a little
Yes, I miss you like a formless hide
Stretching over me and dangled from the coastguard in a chopper
The scaffold of me all awry, you little
Broke your shoulder on the library steps
Hanging 'round there in the dark just doing nothing or whatever
What do you mean you saw the stars? You little
And I could write it in a murder font
I could say it in a way that would be lying or whatever
I don't want them to tell us apart
You say that I'm an overlord?
I've got myself a fire hydrant with more tyrant
In watery blasts than all of my past
You seen me on the bridge a lot
But I never leapt over the pent upper
My number is up, my number is up
But infinite and joyless little high fives are singing, "Praise the lord"
And, "Pitter-patter this schooling? Is this schooling?"
And, "You matter not" and, "You matter not"
And is it the flogging of a Flintstone that I'm supposed to be?
The cerebellum gets schooling and no schooling
The drummer goes on, the drama goes on
And I wouldn't wanna make a scene
I don't wanna think about the third-world hunger or whatever
'Cause thinking always comes across a little
And there's a meeting of the worlds tonight
Right above my head, a miracle, the sun erupt forever
I barely ever raise my eyes, a little (teach him how to hold)
And oh, I wanna make the peace
And God, I gotta be on the train past the ruins
The wall and the druids, oh, please
I'm whining like a braking bus
Maybe, I can sit here and do nothing clever with a laser
I'm not about to open up
You say that I'm an overlord?
I've got myself a fire hydrant with more tyrant
In watery blasts than all of my past
You seen me on the bridge a lot
But I never leapt over the pent upper
My number is up, my number is up
But infinite and joyless little high fives are singing, "Praise the lord"
And, "Pitter-patter this schooling? Is this schooling?"
And, "You matter not" and, "You matter not"
And is it the flogging of a Flintstone that I'm supposed to be?
The cerebellum gets schooling and no schooling
The drummer goes on, the drama goes on
The drummer goes on, the drama goes on
My number is up, my number is up
Earth, I take a long time
To learn about the big one
Gorilla limb swipe and beat
And I learnt nil about Earth
Remember how men
Would understand the heavens?
But leaving those streetlights on
You can't see nothing there
So learn me anything good
(There's a matter approaching)
And teach me something that works
I take a long time
To learn about the big one
Gorilla limb swipe and beat
And I learnt dick about Earth
Remember good men
Would understand the heavens?
And leaving those streetlights on
A ghost dark hemisphere Earth
I take a long time
To learn about the big one
Gorilla limb swipe and beat
And I learnt dick about Earth
Remember, good man
You understand the heavens
But leaving those streetlights on?
the little whistle.
I'm so late - perfect song - Love It - Can't get enough - So amazing
this video is so satisfying to watch
Ikr. The ice cream at 1:13 though!
I love this song!!!

i wanted to shout out BROTHER YOU LOOK LIKE THE TAJ MAHAL in the middle of my math exam.
i restrained myself.
Ooh quite literal - I like. AND Nicos did a Tubelord promo too, this is like a love triangle right here.
Basslinegasm.
What a groove.
PLEASE TOUR THE U.S.... I BEG OF YOU!
everything everything is so good

i use to hate this song, but now i realise it is SO GOOD
i love the quirkiness of this song
