This bands wonderful music got me through the horrors of chemotherapy and the breakdown of my relationship with my ex-fiance, When I had the oportunity to meet the band in Liverpool they where so kind as to sign my diary and wish me good luck. I honestly feel that thier kindness and music gave me the fight to see this through no matter the outcome. This is a band that can change peoples lives for the better, Lyrical perfection that sparks emotion and "That" sound that taps into your soul ♥
you prolly dont care at all but does someone know a method to get back into an instagram account? I was stupid forgot the account password. I love any assistance you can give me!
The wonderful shots of Melbourne alleys make me reminisce about my years living there and haunting those same alleyways in the evenings. A wonderful clip for a wonderful song.
That is what I was thinking reading through some of those comments. It's gone right over peoples heads. I think this video is a real work of art when you look at it in context to the vibe of the Jezabels. Can't expect to please everyone though.
Nunca había escuchado a esta agrupación, y coincide que la primer canción que escucho es esta... ¡maravillosa! simplemente perfecta, saludos desde Durango México.
I'm surprised by how many people think this video is boring and generic. I think you've misunderstood it entirely. The Jezabels' videos have a real 80s vibe to match their sound and this one in particular references 80s pop music videos. Do some research. The slightly dodgy hand-held camera technique, the colours, the lights all enhance this feeling. There are many layers to this and it suits the song perfectly, it's beautiful.
This song, oh this song...accompanying me while i was wandering in a strange city, all alone. Perfect song. I love Jezabel . I was lucky enough to find you. This music makes me happy and makes me cry.
No more will I look around and wonder how it all began No more will I look around for you Flex a muscle Turn a light on In your blind spot What's the time fox? Thinking clearly Stepping up and over And baby, I don't wonder why You feel I remind you of... And baby, I don't wonder why I hit the ground running every time But, gee, I get rush I get shivers inside when you call Let it all unfold Let it show, Fortune You'll be a city girl And saying goodbye to the sweet simple life that you knew Ooh hoo, toodaloo It's true You're through Through with the old world Every month this shit gets awry Know my body tells a story Of the earth in all her pain and glory Running towards it, maybe power-walkin' How are you? Caught the flu? Well, I only know I want you to adore me And baby, I don't wonder why You feel I remind you of... Maybe I don't wonder why I hit the ground running every time And going by the candlelight And hoping I'll seal my... Gee, I get out on the streets late and I walk Let it hurl, unfurl on the world, go berserk Get on your own turf Someone will hand you a sweet proposition one day And you'll say, say, "G'day How you doin' Fortune?" You'll be a city girl soon. Gee, I get rush I get shivers inside when you call Let it all unroll like a troll on you Get in the bar and grill Rubbin' them titties on edges of cities and worlds Let the old control go home and groom, You'll be a city girl soon.
you were there too! yeah they've really got their sound down pat and you gotta give it up to their management too i rekon. They worked the international circuit same time as local so they they will never get stuck tryna be an aussie band tryna crack it in the states, europe etc. Best band!
Jezabels... been a huge fan since the tegan n sara tour back in 2009 and i must say you guys are one of the most legit bands on this planet. fucking rad! This vid is killer!!!
what's wrong with re-visiting the past? it's sometimes nice to have modern music which takes you a few decades back. and i actually disagree about the song not being memorable. this is definitely my favourite song off prisoner because i feel as if theres just so much emotion and meaning behind the sounds and the lyrics - i think the jezabels have done really well in telling a story in this song.
this is a msterpiece ( and i come from leonard cohen nick cave depeche mode radiohead fan base) this one is really pushing me to the edge. hail to the jezabels. PS I had the pleasure to visit 3 concerts in germany and god knows it was hot!
Love your hellbenders pic but yeah, I am 14, And this is my favorite band. I know it seems like everyone my age is an ignorant idiot but that's only 95%.
Great song, disappointing video! It's been the curse of the Jezabels since Hurt Me. None of the clips have done their songs justice. I expected so much more for this, their best song on a glorious album.
Yeah I'm probably gonna be in the minority with this but I have to say that was actually pretty boring and unoriginal. Too many silly face stares looking thru windows. Band and song are great but the video could've been better.
