Hello, I will be your LYRICS GUY for this video. Enjoy: Hello, there's a place that I've been going There's a place I've been going Now I'm clean it would seem Let's go somewhere I'll be seen As sad as it seems I seen Greg and he was like "Seen friends at the birthday party They were kinda fucked up before it even started They were gonna go to the Pinegrove show They didn't know about all the weird stuff So they just left it" (so they just left it) I was wasted (I was wasted) And cold, minding my business And I seen the girls and they were all like "Do you wanna come and get fucked up?" Listen, I got myself a missus, says there can't be any kissing "No, don't be a fridge, you better wise up, kid It's all Adderall now, it doesn't make you wanna do it" "This ain't going well", I thought I was stuck in Hell In a boring conversation with a girl called Mel 'Bout her friend in Cincinnati called Matty as well Pulled away when I went in for the kiss No, it wasn't a diss You put the tap on to cover up the sound of your piss After four years, don't you think I'm over all this? "That's rich from a man who can't shit in a hotel room He's gotta share for a bit" You make a little hobby out of going to the lobby To get things that they don't have Does it go through ya when I'm talking to ya? You know that I could sue you if we're married And you fuck up again Impress myself with stealth and bad health And my wealth and regressive causes Then drink your kombucha and buy a Ed Ruscha Surely, it's a print 'cause I'm not made of it Look, the fucking state of it I came pretty late to it We can still be mates 'cause it's only a picture All your friends in one place Oh, we're a scene, whatever that means I depend on my friends to stay clean As sad as it seems As sad as it seems As sad as it seems As sad as it seems
Something about Matty spraying the box on the background at the beginning made me emotional. He’s been saying lately about how the live shows definitely won’t be the same anymore in light of the environmental crisis and of the pandemic, so something about the box being presented so simply and crudely feels like it’s the start of something new that is far more deconstructed. 😶
I actually think all the BW vids, and the reintroduction of the box may be teasing a 5th album that will be more similar to self titled, but I don't bloody know
right so does everyone remember how mindshower ended up being for the birthday party music vid and on alexa if you say enter mindshower it says "mindshower digital detox will reopen on wednesday 20th may" well what if that means that there will be another music vid like the birthday party
Do you remember Jamie saying something about like an interactive thing we can get involved with as part of the notes release? I'm pretty sure he tweeted something about some kind of experience a while back so I'm thinking maybe this is what he was talking about
whenever I get anxiety attacks, I always listen to this song and it makes me calm after. I always will be grateful and thanks you The 1975 and also to Matty for making such great songs.
I swear every single song describes my life's journey: depression, addiction, being jaded, lost loves, disillusionment, mental health issues, but I'm still here...faking it till I make it. And I'm sure a lot of us feel that way which is why it's all so relatable. ✌
Love these guys so much reminds me of the indie bands I listened to when I was in art college in my late teens I’m 44 now and they resonate with me so much 💕👌🙏
A band with strong influences that conveys a strong message .. Fantastic! Touches the inner strings of an additional young man ... Among 7 billion a people. Thanks
The way this whole album campaign is being done is so brilliant, it's like they have managed to reflect the time and coronavirus without even thinking, a completely effortless adaptation to the circumstances. God bless the 1975 x
Each new song and video I get shocked by how good this band really is. They don’t just make music, this is art, this is original and they bring something new every time. God I love then so much! Hope you guys are safe and healthy.

I love how their sax player is just fully leaning into the Kenny G uncanny valley. lol....why not? He sounds great. I thought this song was ok at first....but it's SO grown on me. This performance especially really turned me around....it's actually a really sparse honest direct conversational beautiful song. Love it...
