[luisfercano5]

Bloc Party ate my sadness!

[melihjem]

this is the best live shit ever...gets me so fucked up

[monokhromenite]

soooo much love for this song

[FFScantgetadamnname]

blew my mind when i saw the lead singer is black

it also blew my mind when i saw how fucking incredible they are live

[Shtivv]

DON'T GET OFFENDED IF I SEEM ABSENT MINDED, JUST KEEP TELLING ME FACTS AND KEEP MAKING ME SMILE... omg, that's me! :)

[Bsaunsthebest]

Such a great live band! This sounds better than the Record!

[fallmonth]

Cool song by great band,Hope Kele wont quit the band because his solo project.

Hey lads if you search for another band which have influenced by bloc party you can search "Protocol Afro"-Radio . Thanks Mate

[GulioMahn]

I love bloc party but live they kinda suck

[YouXKneekXIT]

I love this band ;)

[mudbike]

isn't great when a band gives their fans love and the fans give it right back to them

[bassnick62]

Come back Bloc Party! I'm really not digging Kele's solo work at all...

[Siciliancameleon]

seen them 5 times now...every single performance was the best I've ever been to. Their studio stuff is good, but nothing beats singing along in a crowd of Bloc Heads!

[Ranciddroog]

by far the best live version of this song i can find on youtube, this song never gets old, and this performance specially gives me goosebumps!!! THE BEST INDIE BAND OF THE PAST DECADE

[Shtivv]

nobody can imagine how much i love this song.

[IAmPatrickBatemanJr]

I mean, fckng AMAZING. One of the best live performances of a song I have ever heard, and I wasn't even there. Very high quality capture. True to the studio version of the song, yet so unique in its own right in terms of performance.

This Bristol show is incredible. I literally would kill for a bootleg of it.

[i0wn3du]

FUCKING AMAZING!

[johnny4297]

The best live version of this song.

[RacoonCH]

I dont like this band in general but this song is a legend!!!

[TheSoldierofPeace]

Lol, I think 'This Modern Love' is Bloc Party's own favourite song.

Because they are smiling so much.

I like seing them smile! :D

[lolh4x]

Yeah, that and the fact that cocerts add some adrenaline which is another reason a song is played faster

[MRjoshc328]

His time didnt suck. He was just going a little faster than the album version.

[crosswalkernie]

Yeah, it's what drummers usually do. Challenging yourself, and the band you play with, isn't a bad thing. And it makes the performances more energetic.

[vigilahnt22]

Whats with the haters!! Weak vocals? Hate on some of the albums?!? WOoow...doesnt make any sense. These guys are some of the most talented musicians out there right now. I hope these guys continue to put out gems for many, many years.

[jgallup15]

you have no idea what your talking about obviously

[iscreamdeath]

Best band in the f÷cking world!!!

[soccerboi29]

you definitely have an idea of what you're talking about :)

[KidAlphabet]

@iscreamdeath Fucking A mate right on

[RichieEFC1989]

quality! going to see them next friday for the first time! cant wait!!!!!

[tessa5191]

1:29 weeeeird smile...:)

[Recontra182]

They're English.

[tom134luv]

dont get me wrong i love Bloc Party , Silent alarm, a weekend in the city great albums , and its a great performance but kele is a bit week on the vocals

[tomleech92]

i only like silent alarm, hate the other albums

[arnieboy123]

weekend in the city i good but i just think that intimacy needs time to get a hang of coz its new but there amazin

[tommyjosh94]

Well, you're just a butt nugget, then.

[tomleech92]

butt nugget HA

[tommyjosh94]

Haha. : P

[Gnarlybenson]

i cant believe they split :(

[l3wis3mm]

they didnt split :/

[theusedgreenblink]

they DID NOT split

[tulipsxw2]

THEY DID NOT SPLIT. Gordy's been absent because of his newborn! BUT THEY DID NOT SPLIT. STOP THROWING OUT FALSE RUMORS.

[Recontra182]

Hiatus brotha

[johnny4297]

One of the best live performances I've ever seen, especially with Matt banging out the beats!

[VoteHarveyDent]

This is my favorite Bloc Party song!

[FunKADunK]

You can't hear it as well since this is a live performance taped and on YouTube, but the bassline in the final minute is one of my favorites.

[gomer3289]

your all wrong. its actually "well jump on, enjoy, you can gorge away"

[crosswalkernie]

Actually, no it isn't, but it doesn't really matter. You can interpret it however you want, that's the point of a song.

[Bolancity]

"Do You Want To Come Over And Kill Some Time? 5* Hunks and I Absolutely Love the sound and Attitude!!

[skitzob]

Best song in the world...by a country mile!!!!!!!!!

jump right in, enjoy, you can gorge away...unbelieveable

[jeightyseven]

[hairy0pothead]

You're noth wrong, not that it really matters but it's "Jump right in shorty you can gorge away" love this song :-)

[hairy0pothead]

*both sorry :-)

[Shosara]

I L.O.V.E. this song... Goose bumps :P

[kamiliano]

great song!

[crosswalkernie]

You should learn to appreciate the fact that the live interpretation is going to be different than the CD. And with a good band like Bloc Party, it's usually in a good way.

[SnoiltheRipper]

This is amazing, Russell Rules!

[imaxnukkaninja]

this is my favriot song ever...but bloc party arnt very good live,blah how disapointing

[PepperBabe]

[JustFinch]

Legendary!

[platinumchief]

Such a good song.

[jakemoxxx]

By far my favorite song by them. it builds perfectly.

[giaboni]

this was definitely one of the best tracks on silent alarm, hands down.

[leelee003]

why wasnt this a single?

[HenryQuienne]

Man when they played this song in Colombia it was amazing, shame people didn't know it, barely knew the band... :(

[holliday666]

they're the outstanding indie band of this generation

totally amazing

[hardrockdipper]

yessssssssss soooo gooooooood

[leelee003]

Kele smiling

[dudesonsnumber1fan]

i looooove this song so much and they are so good when they perform live! so good :D

[NiGhTeMpEsT]

I love them and they rock live, but I don't like Kele singin' in the beginning. Then they surely turn on

[lakerharmony]

so amazing live, so amazing alltogther, i really feel this song one of there best

[sanmigc]

I remember How I met your mother from this song

[BurialWarlock]

[FloralDust]

[starphazedboy]

[barbs2771990]

Kele's smile is probably one of the best and most genuine i've ever seen [not to mention on of the cutest].

[jesterjohns]

these guys are gods. amazing.

[Bartjebart2]

f*cking brilliant...

[djmara2002]

love this song, i think the reading 2007 performance is best version of it live ever!!

[redsinsaneyear2005]

skatemore

[timsakumai]

daewon

[dancekellydance]

this is sucha good performance

[healfast]

this band deserves the world's riches

[Julyeah]

eerie

[MasksRMade2HIde]

the album version sucks compared to this the drumming is wayyyy better here

[magicPAGIE123]

i was there :):) haha they were amazing live.

[AlexSongDoesCovers]

Amazing as always. You just come to expect this from Bloc Party. By the way, is Kele using a Gretsch?

[BagMen]

fuck you mother fucker

[sincarey]

theres so much palpale emotion in this from kele. it makes me wonder what hes thinking about.

[mrcrimp89]

Probably bums.

[ricekey]

lol. This reminds me of the first time I heard this song. I thought there were 2 people singing the whole beginning part for the longest time until I saw the LIVE version.

Great performance though, and I love this band.

[minimullen]

definatly

[SoelJwastek]

there are two people singing in the real version. well... it's his voice harmonizing the whole song.

[cornflakeclusters]

watch "Daewon song-DVS-skatemore" featuring blocparty.Mindblowing.

[dssk83]

That is how I found out about Bloc Party. Even though I no longer skate it is still a great part to watch.

[Urahara710]

Wow, I've gotta see them live. They're perfect, the best band there is. I like in the beginning he seems somewhat nervous and the song is slower, and then it picks up and they all get into it.

[pioneerguy]

I've comparing their first album when there was a lot more life and feeling into their recordings and live performances, i feel it's gone down hill a bit in that sense. I'm just showing my view so don't dig but i've watched a lot of vids and compared the old and new albums and there's a big difference but not just in style. Anyone agree? But i will say Bloc Party fucking rule they're my favourite band of all time so :D

WOOO BLOC PARTY :)

[hoizei08]

bloc party is simply amazing! that song is perfect!

[iraky3000]

i love this modern love...

[hiteshk71]

do you wanna come over and kill some time....

do you wanna come over and kill some time

do you wanna come over and kill some time?

throw your arms around......Me.

[Lazinessss]

geniales siempre bloc party !!!

[Rishaloo22]

fucking awsome!!

that's going to be favourited....

[redglasstar]

guitar solo is so fantastic!!

[timk123]

This song is amazing. I love it =)

[spuky69]

If you havn't noticed the singer is just changing the way he sings, what would you prefer...an original piece with something changed and different from the one in the album or listen to something you can listen at home on your CD?

Bloc Party is a great band and it goes the same for Kele.
