i hear this song and thought well i remember this voice from somewere in the 80ties and i think i have found it harry's voice sounds like the voice of roland orzabal from tears for fears
I'm so glad I decided to look up this band. I heard only about 30 seconds of this song on the TV and almost didn't write the name down.. Enough with the comparisons, they're a great band by themselves.
I think there is plenty of great music out there like this, you just might have to look a bit harder to find it. But when you do find it, it is very rewarding...
Someone please explain why there are so few artists who play good music like this anymore. Why must we be bludgeoned with the shallow monotonous pop crap they force through the airwaves?
Brittany and all the others have negative space for brains and don't have a clue about feeling in a song. Thanks to bands like this for keeping that expressive spirit that came from the 80's alive.
Can people stop referring to them what they sound like Echo and bunnyman The Cure Joy Division Depeche Mode Franz Ferdinand Bloc Party The Killers The Editors New Order Is if were saying what they don't sound like next we'll be saying they sound like Jonas Brothers
Very few times do I hear a song nowadays on the radio, and am I impressed. Hearing White Lies' "To Lose My Life" was one of those rare occasions. I love how it has a classic 80's sound to it. These guys will be big mark my words
I don't pretend to be smarter than most people but there is no question this is the greatest song to come out in the past 15 years.This reminds me of Joy Division but this song gives me chills everytime I hear it...just listen to the bass,drums and keyboard along with the guitar and lyrics, it's hauntingly beautiful in every sense of the word. I love dark, eerie music .
Great song. Only heard about 1 minute on V, and now checking it out... Back to that influence sound: Anyone thinking a bit reminiscent of simon le bon duran duran- planet earth springs to mind
Normally I switch the station when I turn on the radio, but just as my wife was about to switch I went, "wow...this is really good. Reminds me of that classic 80's feel I use to love from music. More music like this please!!!!
This band being compared to Depeche Mode, Joy Division, The Kilkers Etc is annoying ppl should just shut up & enjoy a band bringing an 80's Retro influence into their sound
Actually White Lies claim Joy Division, the Teardrop Explodes, and Echo & the Bunnymen as key influences. Depeche Mode is there too, and yes, Depeche mode and Joy Division ARE late 70s to 80s bands.
And Joy Division and all those bands were influenced by bands before them and it goes and on and on. Its not really fair that the only thing people have to say about this band is that they sound like this band or that band. At least White Lies admit who they were musically influenced by. Alot of bands will rip off other bands sound and they deny ever liking that band or being influenced by them cuz they cant admit were they got their sound ideas from.
Yeah, I have to agree with you. The first things that some 'fans' say about a band is: "Sounds like ___" and "just another ____". I only use these useless analogies when I recommend a band.
It's getting stupid how some people expect to see nothing but bands that are copies of older bands, and ignore any originality. What, is it a crime to sound individual?
And the radio, too. Blechh. Sounds like they're constantly stuck in the Pearl Jam 90s, but the sad thing is that they're all newer bands.
at last something fresh! it's crazy good stuff...caught them on Letterman tonight, they sounded much better live than on this video. These guys are the goods!
XD Thanks. I did happen to be on the computer throughout the show, and in the middle of the song I decided I liked it enough to look them up before I forgot the song/band. I have a horrid memory.
Good Song :) (Sounds A Bit Scary! :O)(Im Just A Coward ^_^)
