Black Country New Road - 'Sunglasses' (Official Lyric Video) 

The absolute pinnacle of British engineering

damn shes probably a bit dizzy after 9 mins of spinning

the 4 ad breaks were the worst thing to happen to me this year and man have i been through a lot

Thank you BCNR for being my favorite favorite second-best slint tribute act

that intro is honestly gorgeous, would love an extended version one day

Crazy how Kanye made 26 different accounts to dislike this

The mix on this version is perfect. I also think the restraint in his voice is so well done, until near the end where he just lets it rip. This is my song of the year so far.

That grungy intro with the distorted guitar is just perfect for the monologue that follows. This song is poetic and theatrical at the same time.

This song is more than adequate.

The whole post-rock intro has lived in my head almost daily for the past three years rent free

The lyrical delivery works well imo, but I really miss is the crazy kick drum pattern just before the "I am invincible in these sunglasses" part :(

This band is great, I found about it on Wikipedia

Just finished watching a 6 part Danish crime drama so listening to this seems fitting

this version is better. there. i said it.

The new version is interesting. It sounds almost desperate whereas the old one still holds a glimmer of hope in it

I AM INVINCIBLE IN THESE SUNGLASSES I AM THE FONZ I AM THE JACK OF HEARTS

Black Country New Road ,Black Midi, Squid ,What an amazing moment to be alive 🔥😬.

This is like if Slint and king crimson had baby and it’s absolutely fantastic

I’ve had the album on vinyl for about a week now. Didn’t like the new version at first but it’s grown on me and I now probably prefer this vocal delivery now. Still wish the Isaac line was still in there though, that line was too good

I can understand why people would prefer the old version of athens france but I dont get how people like the old sunglasses more, this is just better in every way in my eyes.

Prefered the lyric delivery of the original but the gutair intro is a nice touch!

The changes kinda remind me of joy divisons change between unknown pleasures and closer. Softer tone, less abbrassive instrumentals and more poetic lyrics. I'm just glad there's both versions. Makes it seem like a kind of night and day divide between the two in tone Or la dispute wildlife compared to rooms of the house

何と言ったら良いのか。素晴らしいの一言に尽きる。このアルバムの登場に狂乱できる時代に生まれて良かった。生きてて良かった。生まれてきて良かった。

I have had the vinyl for a week now. To everyone dissing the new vocals, give it time. I now much prefer all the album versions.

The Absolute Pinnacle of British Engineering

I don’t think this is about comparing, both the old version and this one have their own pros and cons, it’s not about which one is better, it’s just about enjoying.

shoutout to these visuals, really elevate the already amazing song

everyone is complaining about the new version. just let the band do what they want, you can always listen to the singles. just chill doods

I can't get enough of this song.

I am invisible in these sunglasses. I'm modern Scott Walker

"I wish all my kids would stop dressing up like Richard Hell" ... I'm sold, buy this and the new double album ... another musical journey to conquer!

Ima just leave this comment here just incase I comeback in 5 yrs or something

Am I the only one who is creeped out by the video? I probably project too much into it, but can't help thinking this is the girl he is singing about. She thinks the world resolves only around her and goes skiing during the world's biggest fething pandemic.

i literally didn't notice the switch of 'big pharma' for 'pig' until it was in writing in front of me. i guess the original lyrics just burned themselves into my memory

god i love the intro on this

this track is incredible

This version is leaps and bounds better than the original. That sludgy guitar intro is stunning and introduces the first main riff in a really heavy, anticipatory way

she do be kinda spinnin doe.

Kanye singlehandedly altered the meaning of the later half of the song

did isaac just really wanna sing on this track now? i get that they're likely burned out from performing this track to death for 2+ years and wanna spice things up for the recording, but the monotone delivery is what made the track special IMO. fuzzy intro was great, though. i'm sure this will grow on me. also, AND FUCK ME LIKE YOU MEAN IT THIS TIME ISAAC?! RIP

High level design from the people in UK!

It’s funny how many describe this as Post-Punk because as an outsider and a prog lover I mostly see it as prog or art rock

on the whole i definitely prefer the original version, but i think in terms of the album this is a much better fit. the album has a lot more delay-release stuff going on and the reworking of this track really fits that

Puro talento tiene está banda

Definitivamente la nueva versión de esta canción me desorientó un poco pero si creo que las nuevas versiones de los temas tienen más sentido dentro del contexto del álbum.

I see people complain that the older version is better. I think this one is fucking amazing.

this is the genuine peak of lyrics in music

This is SOOO GOOD!

Excelente trabajo, me gusta.

Anyone else think the singer kinda sounds like Jamie Stewart at points? Especially when he sings that "I am so ignorant now" line, he sounds surprisingly similar. Also this is better than the single version and thanks to the concentrated cringe whisper vocals at the end of the original it's not even a contest, fight me

AOTY! AOTY!

This song goes very hard, I LOVE IT

The pause after “welcome” is its own masterpiece

Welcome to the best new six-part Danish crime drama She steams herself in marble rooms, courtesy of Pig I lose myself in the light of the TV, courtesy of her father She buys everything that glows gold in the kitchen larder Mother is juicing watermelons on the breakfast island And with frail hands she grips the NutriBullet And the bite of its blades reminds me Of a future that I am in no way part of And in a wall of photographs In the downstairs second living room's TV area I become her father And complain of mediocre theatre in the daytime And ice in single malt whiskey at night Of rising skirt hems and lowering IQs And things just aren't built like they used to be The absolute pinnacle of British engineering And I am so ignorant now with all that I've learnt I'm so ignorant now with all that I've learnt Yes, I am so ignorant now with all that I've learnt I am so ignorant now with all that I've learnt I am so ignorant now with all that I've learnt I am invincible in these sunglasses I am the Fonz, I am the Jack of Hearts I'm looking at you and you cannot tell I am more than the sum of my parts I am looking at you with my best eyes and I wish you could tell I wish all my kids would stop dressing up like Richard Hell I am locked away in a high-tech Wraparound, translucent, blue-tinted fortress And you cannot touch me I am invincible in these sunglasses Cars are going: "Beep, beep, beep" And there are so many roadmen on this street And they cannot tell that I am scared I am invincible in these sunglasses I am 'modern-Scott Walker' I'm a surprisingly smooth talker And I'm invincible in these sunglasses And I am so ignorant now with all that I've learnt I am so ignorant now with all that I've learnt I'm more than adequate Leave Kanye out of this Leave your Sertraline in the cabinet And burn what's left of all the cards you kept I'm more than adequate Leave my Daddy's job out of this Leave your Sertraline in the cabinet And burn what's left of all the cards you kept I'm more than adequate Leave Kanye out of this Leave your Sertraline in the cabinet And burn what's left of all the cards you kept I'm more than adequate Leave my Daddy's job out of this Leave your Sertraline in the cabinet And burn what's left of all the cards you kept She sells chemtrails to the students at Bedales I try to free myself from the grip of Shellac nails She sells chemtrails to the students at Bedales I try to free myself from the grip of Shellac nails

Why the fuck does this have midroll ads?

Every hair on my body, every single one, just stood up for their new national anthem

Old vocals are definitely more enjoyable, but the delivery here has it's own appeal

One of their very best

Beautiful intro

The absolute pinnacle of british engineering

I feel SO invincible in the sunglasses.... KANYE~!

Its here

My boy my poor boy

THIS IS FIRE

5:21 oh yahh

Me encanta esta canción 😊

Man, I fucking love that change up.

Nice refinement of the original.

Anxiety the song

kicifoda melhor música do ano! 🔥

i think the "i m more than adequate" is a better call saul reference

This version is a million times better purely because they removed the "this time, fuck me like you mean it Isaac" line, kinda ruined the song for me when I listened to it, made me laugh alot tho.

I think I prefer the single version but when you're listening to this album all the way through it works very well

Actually prefer these vocals, not sure why people are freaking out about the removal of a few 'fucks' here and there

GOOd.

Slint vibes Fckin good job

honestly I prefer this version over the 2019 one

here before a million views

This song used to make me incredibly anxious

First half: Ants From Up There Second half: Calvalcade Y'all know I'm right

I AM SO IGNORANT NOW

I'm so ignorant now

wowie wow wow wow wow

what are the kept cards that should burn

This is the parents approved version. But we are all 18+ and we don't need their fucking approval.

Shellac nails.... Let Albini get his claws into this

What snare do you use?

is this a re-mix?

It's like Swans with a saxophone!

AOTY 2021
