I've always liked this song. It so beautifully conveys the feeling of taking a leap of faith. I've only ever truly experienced it once, but that sense of making a clean break with past, moving on never to turn back. Knowing one thing about your future; that you're going to make sure it is better than the past. All that hope, optimism and even a little apprehension, things won't always be perfect but you'll keep building day by day.
Fucking LOVE this band. Three albums, all of which sound different to one another yet still managing to keep a core sound, and all of which are different to anything currently out there. I'm not exaggerating when I say Noah and the Whale is one of my favourite bands ever, and this is from a guy who has adored music for about 15 years now.
Mid 2000-s I felt like I was born in the wrong decade, that the music being made was just... not it, and there was a lot in the past that should be brought back. Turns out I was not alone, and some of the people who felt that way became awesome musicians like Noah and the Whale. And so by 2010's we started getting music like this, which, for me, is just the bee's knees. When music like this started to come out, I flipped from "there's nothing to listen to" to "OMG I hope these people never stop". This music reflects how I feel about myself, and how I feel the world should be. Thanks for making it!
Best uk based band , ive heard in ages , they play instruments , they sound great .. Probably would never pass an X factor audition ...because they play original real music , with hook and catch
I love the first folky album, I love the second quiet album, and now I love the third warm and 80's sound album. I actually love Noah and The Whale!! They are very talented, they create, grow, reinvent themselfs, while making music on a higher level.
Now that's how a music video should be done! Besides being a great band, Noah and the Whale also have the fortune to have one of the most talented young film directors I've seen in a while.
a lot of noah and the whale songs seem to be about life not being good but it either can get better (like this song) or you can see the situation in a better way (L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N and 5 years time) or it is what it is (Life Is Life). YAY!! I acc just analysed something for the first time ever!!! Thanx noah and the whale!! :D
LOVE LOVE LOVE Noah and the Whale! I can't get enough of these guys. Their music is one of a kind and I'm pretty sure that I'll never get tired of them. And of course: Charlie Fink ♥
this is genius. love NATW! saw them at the UEA the other day, awesome live! not going to lie, i have a slight obsession with tom and his amazing hair now.
HUGE difference from the Noah and the Whale I'm used to, but so far, I love this new album. everybody watch, the next album is going to be a hip hop record.
