Music video by White Lies performing Farewell To The Fairground. (C) 2008 Polydor Ltd. (UK) #WhiteLies #FairwellToTheFairground #vevo #alternative #indie #vevoofficial
The guy working out in this video, combined with White Lies music in general, is what motivated me to loose nearly 60 pounds over the last year and a half. I know that a nameless person working out in a video seems like a strange source of inspiration, but it did it for me. Thank you so much White Lies for your incredible music and always interesting music videos.
Nameless person, huh? he’s Vitaliy Chernienko, the Chernoborsk Mauler, an undefeated Russian kickboxing champion in the years 1998 - 2002. A pride of Chernoborsk oblast. And i made this one up on the go. But i bet there’s a story behind this dude. Like all the people in this video.
OMG. This is my birth town! Nikel. ( former USSR ) It is a very cold place, Like north Alaska! I left this town many years ago ... 1983 ... " White lies."- Thanks a lot !!!! In this video town of Nickel looks very depression. In the winter, when cold and windy... But I still miss some times
I live in this city this is my hometown, and it's called Nikel (Murmansk region) one of those guys who spits my classmate, and his name is Timothy Chirkov LOL
+LtKamarov, no, not all people work at the factory. Sometimes the city is spreading even gas, but it depends on the wind. In the video the city is shown very gloomy, now it is not so)
Съёмки проходили в Мурманской области в п.Никель и г.Заполярный. Между ними всего 30км. Недалеко от Заполярного располагается Кольская сверхглубокая скважина... В 1997 году занесена в Книгу рекордов Гиннесса как самое глубокое вторжение человека в земную кору, и остаётся таковой до сих пор. 2021. Мурманская область, п.Никель, г.Заполярный... С момента съёмок почти ничего не изменилось...
+MoneyDawg Why sad? That number doesnt really gives anything, t is weird, that they are watching adele and other popular shit, but as long as we are here there is noting sad in it in my opinion.
Umm, yea? White Lies never created something that would drag television programs attention. The bigger the name of an artist is the more popular the song is, it's just how it goes, it's natural.
Шестой год я живу в подобном месте, вдали от дома. Мне ужасно тоскливо и одиноко здесь. И вот наконец я решился, и уезжаю домой. Вроде бы и рад, но так жалко расставаться со всеми этими прекрасными людьми, которых повстречал на севере. Песня бьёт прямо в самое сердце. А клип максимально атмосферный и пропитан эстетикой северных ебеней. Всем тем, кто оторван от дома и страстно хочет вернуться: держитесь ребята, весна обязательно настанет!
Ты не совсем понял посыл. Судя по тексту, ТАКИЕ МЕСТА - ЭТО И ЕСТЬ ДОМ! А сытые, тёплые места, как Москва - чужой цирк. Это как у Шевчука: Еду я на Родину. Пусть кричат - уродина. А она нам нравится, хоть и не красавица. Посыл такой: не забывай и люби свой дом, даже если это тоскливые северные ебеня.
Можно уехать с севера, но он останется внутри и будет тянуть обратно) Я всего год смог протянуть в Москве, откуда с радостью свалил в свою снежную пустыню - здесь реальная свобода и простор, здесь моя родина и дом.
Jesus dude, your comment is so well-written it sounds as if it has been taken from the passage of a book which revolves around 17th century crime and corruption in Italy. Sorry xD, I just had to
The light's still in our eyes We're leaving this whole fairground behind It's a dream that's going cold The circus never dies The act forever haunts these skies I know we cannot stay Farewell to the fairground These rides aren't working anymore Goodbye to this dead town Until the ice begins to thaw This place used to gleam I see it in my hopeful dreams Now I have to get away We move towards the stars And all that we touch becomes ours Let's keep warm till it's day Farewell to the fairground These rides aren't working anymore Goodbye to this dead town Until the ice begins to thaw We'll head south, just hold my hand now I feel like I'm casting off my clothes And I'm running through the snow towards the sunset And I'm always with you Keep on running Keep, keep on running There's no place like home There's no place like home Keep on running Keep, keep on running There's no place like home There's no place like home Keep on running Keep, keep on running There's no place like home There's no place like home Keep on running Keep, keep on running There's no place like home There's no place like home Keep on running Keep, keep on running There's no place like home There's no place like home Keep on running Keep, keep on running There's no place like home There's no place like home Farewell to the fairground These rides aren't working anymore Goodbye to this dead town Until the ice begins to thaw We'll head south, just hold my hand now I feel like I'm casting off my clothes And I'm running through the snow towards the sunset And I'm always with you
The lights still in our eyes, We're leaving this whole fairground behind, It's a dream that's going cold. The circus never dies, The act forever haunts these skies, I know we cannot stay. Farewell to the fairground, these rides aren't working anymore. Goodbye to this dead town, until the ice begins to thaw. This place used to gleam, I see it in my hopeful dreams, now I had to get away. We move towards the stars, and all that we touch becomes ours, let's keep warm till it's day. Farewell to the fairground, these rides aren't working anymore. Goodbye to this dead town, until the ice begins to thaw. We'll head south, just hold my hand now. I feel like I'm casting off my clothes and I'm running through the snow towards the sunset and I'm always with you. Keep on running, Keep keep on running, There's no place like home, There's no place like home. [x5] Farewell to the fairground, these rides aren't working anymore. Goodbye to this dead town, until the ice begins to thaw. We'll head south, just hold my hand now, I feel like I'm casting off my clothes, and I'm running through the snow towards the sunset, and I'm always with you
I’m reading the comments and I’m shocked at how many people are NOT here bcuz Forza Horizon…the very first one. And this song was on it. The soundtrack from that game was a once-in-a-lifetime compilation. I mean that 💯 percent.
Stumbled upon this video a couple of weeks ago.. never would have thought it was 14yo givdn that i only listen to it on spotify. They have some really good songs.
Родилась и выросла в Заполярном, где был снят клип. Помню, как каждый школьник слушал эту песню. Из родного города уехала 12 лет назад, ненавижу его всем сердцем. А песню обожаю и слушаю до сих пор ❤
Когда у меня спрашивают, где я выросла - мне есть, что показать) спасибо) песня крутая и атмосферная, болит внутри до сих пор, когда её слышу. Уехала 20 лет назад.
This song conveys a feeling through both the lyrics and the production of the music. Up to the middle of the song it makes me feel like a struggle, just as if I am trying to "keep on running" but there's something pushing me back. At some point, halfway through the song, I am empowered and the struggle becomes evolves into empowerment. I have no idea how they achieved it but it is absolutely brilliant. I wish more people knew this band. It's so underrated. This song made it to my top 10 list.
Эта песня отлично вписывается в суровые российские реалии по настроению, и черт возьми как я любил слушать её. Я помню, шёл и слушал, чётко отстукивая ритм ногами. Это был 10 класс. 8 лет уже прошло...
Только вчера впервый раз увидел клип и узнал об этой группе. Сначала подумал, что они русские, потом офигел, оттого, что англичане 🙂 Нафига их занесло в эту срань нашу . Но спели правильно "Досвиданья, Жопа мира" 🙈😃
В наших глазах всё ещё горит свет, Мы оставляем ярмарочную площадь позади. Она как мечта, к которой охладел. Цирк никогда не умрёт, Игра стремится к небесам, Но я знаю, мы не можем остаться. Прощай, ярмарка! Атракционы больше не работают. Распрощаемся с мёртвым городком, Пока лёд не растаял. Некогда это место сверкало. Я видел его в своих снах, полных надежды. Но теперь я должен уйти. Мы стремимся к звёздам, И всё, чего мы касаемся, становится нашим. Сохраним тепло, пока не настал день. Прощай, ярмарка! Атракционы больше не работают. Распрощаемся с мёртвым городком, Пока лёд не растаял. Мы отправимся на юг, просто держи меня за руку. Я словно обнажён, Я будто продираюсь сквозь снежную бурю к закату. Я всегда буду с тобой. Продолжаем бежать - У нас нет дома.
How is it that I'd never heard of this group until about a week ago? There music is brilliant!!! I am seriously in love now. Also, just a side note: something about this song in particular reminds me of the music style of U2. That's not a bad thing by the way, I love U2 and now I also love this group!
That lead guitar sounds like it's tearing it's way through from another dimension. Whilst the bass is stalking and pulsing beneath the drums which clatter and thump above. All brought together by that soaring vocal, clashing symbols and masterful melody. This song is this band at their best. It almost hurts how far from this greatness their last two albums were. My hopes remain high that they'll one day return to their roots. I love that triple snare hit that is all but vacant from their last two records.
@@makisuvlaki1033 I’ve always played this whole album as part of my winter music. Also white lies is the only alarm i use in the morning that I ever get tired of or sleep though.
