Alexisonfire - Sans Soleil (Official Video) 

_"It's easier to love someone else than it is to be kind to yourself"_ -- that hits too hard.

I may be a little biased as a Canadian. But this band (and Dallas green) is severely and criminally underrated.

"This song is about hanging onto hope during the heaviest times. Healing and letting go. Dreaming of a future where all this hurt is behind you.” -Wade MacNeil. Alexisonfire guitarist, when asked about the meaning of his lyrics.

Found you at 15 and I’m 33 now… Thanks for coming back, pushing it hard as ever ❤️ x

I wish they could do more sad songs, they're so talented it. " When you got Dal in your band, you let him sing sad songs. "

This song got me through some really dark times just finished Chemotherapy 2day after a lengthy battle of Cancer stage 4 and amazingly pulled through thank you so much xoxo

I will never not enjoy a song with a mix of layered screaming and singing like at 3:20

🤘 Lyrics🤘 These days won't last This too shall pass The pain won't linger on Through dust and dark The seed, the spark Crying in this lonely parking lot It's easier to love someone else Than it is to be kind to yourself What's harder then is to let someone in You loved me when I couldn't love myself I couldn't love myself Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin Where you end I begin again, I begin again Your smell on my sheets Haven't spoke a word in weeks But I don't want to lie to you It's been dark for days Sans soleil It's lonely in the city by myself It's easier to love someone else Than it is to be kind to yourself What's harder then is to let someone in You loved me when I couldn't love myself I couldn't love myself Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin Where you end I begin again, I begin again I'm glad you're here with me At the end of all things I'm glad you're here with me At the end of all things Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin again I begin again, ooh, oh oh I begin again, ooh oh oh

I feel like this is their "Rough Hands" song for the new album and I am so here for it. What a powerhouse of a band. So happy they're back. #theonlybandever

i'm 56 and still love these guys. this song just rocks you to the core!!

This track quickly became one of my favorite AOF songs. Unreal good

No matter how much praise Dallas gets, the world will never appreciate his voice enough. Beyond legendary 🙏

At age 34, these guys have aged like fine wine.

Beautiful song. The only negative is how high the bar is now set for the rest of the album. I trust you guys will get it right!

To me this is by far the best song Alexisonfire has ever created. The melancholy, the emotion, the sorrow... incredible. Just incredible.

Haha Wade at the end! Well.. damn.. once again you guys have come through for me. This song has been on repeat in my heart and mind since it dropped. I’m obsessed 🖤☠️🎶

I've had this track on repeat for weeks now... video is trippy and cool, but not the vibe at all that I was getting from just listening to the song itself.

"I'm glad you're here with me At the end of all things" - Lord Of the Rings.

Already one of the best Alexis songs. This album is going to be legendary

Alexis is definitely on fire and they have never been put out

BORN & RAISED STILL ONE OF THE BEST AOF SONGS EVER!! CAN'T CHANGE MY MIND 🤟🏼

Had no clue they got back together, where Dallas Green goes I will follow. Voice of a God damn angel

11k views and only 1.2k likes. I'm not ok with this when this song is a masterpiece

Honest opinion, I’m not a fan of the video but this song is amazing. Dallas Greens voice is amazing as usual.

Замученный дорогой я выбился из сил И в доме лесника я ночлега попросил С улыбкой добродушной старик меня впустил И жестом дружелюбным на ужин пригласил

Mannn seeing you guys in Sydney N.S. brought me back here today. Been a while, come back to Sydney guys.

This song is just amazing, I can't stop listening to this masterpiece

Easily in the AOF Greatest Hits library.

This whole album is PHENOMENAL! Such a great canadian band.

So different, but so AOF!

I'm sorry for being the worst person for you when you just wanted to see me well

It's been so long, I'm glad the boys are back!

I have seen them at Download Festival yesterday. To be honest l never listened them before but l literally fall in love with Dallas's voice. Alexisonfire will be the name that l will be looking for next time. It was a pure pleasure to watch them live. They gained one fan from Download this year :)

Everyone: "This is a song about the pleasures of the flesh and the hell it creates because you could never even do so much as take it easy on yourself so you indulge in the pleasures of the flesh to numb yourself to the outside world" *Dallas Green wakes up* Me: "Nah, see? He woke up, it was just a dream stop reading so much into things."

I cannot begin to describe the emotions I have towards this song. The first time I heard it, something inside of me resonated and clicked. I’ve become so attached to it; the lyrics, the melody, everything. It’s the perfect AOF song. It’s so powerful and strikes a deep chord inside and just. Wow. I’m blown away with it every time I listen to it. This album is going to be AMAZING.

You nailed it with this one guys. It is so hard to make this type of melody. Vocalist put his blood and sweat into it. You set the bar so high. Wish there was a solo. Complex layers, depth in lyrics and exceptional tunes. 10/10

Holy fuk bud ! Your such an amazing lyricist and musician ! Such deep meaning to your lyrics ! I love your voice ! I have been a fan since 2005 or so ! Your a big inspiration to me as a kareoke star im starting to now write my own lyrics and make my own songs . Keep up the good work bud ! Love from British Columbia ❤️

AoF watches the Calendar tick over to 2022: "Yo, we're back. There's a new album coming after 19 years off, anyway, here's a drip feed of three songs from it that would comfortably nestle in to any bands career long top 5 best of. Peace out"

Where you end Wade begins

Dallas' voice is amazing on this track and it's the first I've heard that the vocals aren't buried or muddy af from this album.

The tingles down my back when Dallas signed off with that last chorus. Man's voice is something else, my lord.

There's a reason you can't see any of the girls' eyes in this clip - besides the clairvoyant chick

A sweet song about growth, love and hanging in there with a music video featuring tarot cards, strippers and chainsaws. As it should be.

This song is perfection! Whats going on with the music video tho? It's wild, will take many views to figure it out. Its all about letting go im assuming and being your true self.

Whose listening still to this day 😊

BORN&RAISED WAS A BLAST! BLESS YOU AOF FOR STILL BEING ONE OF THE GREATEST 🤘🏻🖤

This is already the most emotional and beautiful song of 2022

Excelent song!!!

The boys grew even better and reaching greater heights in their music. I'm happy they made another album and this is track in particular is a rare gem. Also Dallas never misses

THE ONLY BAND EVER FOREVER !

Ah, what a surprise! AOF songs are something else... I stopped listening this genre, but back in the days, I fell in love with this band. To be honest, I've learned english through their songs, so they have a special place in my memory. ❤

Amazing amazing song ! Lyrics , voice , rythm , and even the music video ! Great work , theres heart in it !

Ahhhhh I ALMOST forgot how much I love you guys, you were probably my favourite band 10-15 years ago, along with Atreyu/Coheed/Killswitch. Loving the new song, time to listen to some golden oldies (Rough Hands here I come!)

Currently going through whatever Big D is singing about so have a cheeky like.

Essa é daquelas músicas que nunca vão poder faltar em um show deles, entra no meu top 3 do AOF. Clipe muito maneiro, no final ainda fizeram uma referência ao Thriller do Michael Jackson. Demais!! A banda voltou bem melhor sonoramente.

Love this song!! Love Alexisonfire!!

Officially my new AOF favourite song. Keep on goin' guys, this is absolutely beautiful

One day while I was driving I thought I heard the radio host announce “New music from Arcade Fire…” and for some reason unbeknownst to me I decided to give it a listen. 30 seconds in I’m convinced Arcade Fire has just earned themself a new fan for dropping this masterpiece. Then after recognizing Dallas’ voice it all made sense… Thanks Arcade Fire 😊

I just saw you guys play at the house of blues in Anaheim CA on the 9th. Is the first time I'd ever seen you guys live and you guys have been my favorite band since I was 19 and I'm 34 now. It was surreal and you guys put on a hell of a performance. Sucked that somebody decided to start a fight in the middle of your encore but you guys started back right up where you left off and it was epic. Thank you guys for being you you guys help me through a lot with your music throughout my life and I appreciate it.

Будь как дома, путник, я ни в чём не откажу, я ни в чём не откажу...

These days won't last This too shall pass The pain won't linger on Through dust and dark The seed, the spark Crying in this lonely parking lot It's easier to love someone else Than it is to be kind to yourself What's harder is to let someone in You loved me when I couldn't love myself I couldn't love myself Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin again I begin again Your smell on my sheets Haven't spoke a word in weeks But I don't want to lie to you It's been dark for days Sans soleil It's lonely in the city by myself It's easier to love someone else Than it is to be kind to yourself What's harder then is to let someone in You loved me when I couldn't love myself I couldn't love myself Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin again I begin again I'm glad you're here with me At the end of all things I'm glad you're here with me At the end of all things Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin Where you end, I begin again I begin again I begin again

Thank you so much for writing this song. It's very healing. 🖤

Горшок жив!

One of the most beautifully written songs I have ever heard.

Always loved this band but they’re evolving into something next level on this album

Nice job guys! Love the track.

just heard this song today and man, dont know whats more surprising that theyre back or that I'd end up with this on repeat all day, diff than what I'm used to from them but its a more mature sound and dallas has one of the most amazing voices, at a time when I really needed it, thank you aof "It's easier to love someone else, than it is to be kind to yourself" ain't it the truth:S

straight up banger - I loved the start of the song it had a very The Cure like opening rift. with the chimes and all. And the end with the harmonies was spot.

The source of Wade’s honk shoe sleepy time fit is revealed

Love you guys seen you live in La you are awesome

Being a huge fan of AOF it makes me ashamed to let this album fly under the radar for me. I only just found out about this album, and this being the first song i heard off of it made me collapse into a pool of joy/uncontrollable sadness.

C'est vrai que le soleil viens pas souvent quand la vie est difficile avec nous ..

Was so happy to hear George in that somewhere at least. Good tune though ❤ I had to add this in... about 13 years ago I was in downtown Ottawa on a back street and who do I see? The whole fcking crew of Alexsisonfire walking down the opposite way. I was too shy to say anything so I waited until they had passed and just screamed “ALEXSISONFIRE!!!” And of course George yelled back “NO WE’RE NOT!” I just laughed and it was one of the best moments of my life.

Король и шут вначале кайф

this song is an absolute masterpiece

I fucking love you Dallas Green!!!! Can’t wait to watch you sing in October again

Beautiful song ❤️‍🩹

It's more like City and Colour. But it's Ok)

i have not listened to alexisonfire since highschool. recently started listening to them again and this has to be the best album ive heard in 2022.

This straight up is one of Alexis’s best fucking songs ever made man. Shit makes me fucking cry dude. Well fucking done Wade.

Greatest band to ever exist in my opinion. Can't wait for this album!!! Gonna be another 10/10 for sure.

I really can't describe how much this song already means to me.

"It's been dark for days... Sans Soleil!" 💓🔥

excited for part deux

Estoy esperando este disco, me parece que se viene brutal🔥 … Ya lo tengo reservado en amazon, esperando con ansias el lanzamiento y tenerlo en mi poder. Aguante Alexis🫶🏽

This is one of your best songs ever. Amazing track!

Acompanho Alexisonfire há muitos anos, mas mano ... Essa música... Esse som é absurdo, bagulho é top 5 melhores sons deles FÁCIL!!!

Woooow

The pride of southern Ontario. Alexisonfire.

Heard this Awesome song on the Radio today, never heard of them before but I already love them!

Just when you thought Alexisonfire was a distant memory, they come out with this banger 👌

“It’s easier to love someone else than it is to be kind to yourself” Ok yeah, fair enough. Wasn’t trying to be called out like that, but fair enough. Thanks for coming back

First time I listened to alex was at 14. When this song came out I listened to every album again cuz I hadn't in a while and oh man. They hit differently at 35.

This melody is copied from the song of the Russian rock band “Король и шут” (The King and the Fool) “Лесник” (Forester) 1997 Google if u don’t believe

It’s not possible for Dallas to create a bad song

come to brazil

Cara, essa música bateu de um jeito pra mim! Simplesmente já tá nas favoritas da vida. Quando ouvi pela primeira vez explodiu um monte de sentimentos, a cada frase o som só melhorava. Os caras sabem tocar onde dói.

City & Colour vibes.

Happiness by the kilowatt WAS my favorite.. this might have just tied it.
