I hate it how people automatically think that the guy might like men because theres a mention of several pairs of trousers and a tie.
I have a firm belief that this song is directed at anyone who's ever longed for someone, felt love or simply didnt kiss the person and their chance is gone.
im not sure if hes bi or not, he probably is, but he'd never say if he is or isnt. hes just 100% comfortable with his sexuality and doesnt think it matters and enjoys the idea that everyone else is trying to figure out if he is gay or not. but he doesnt give shit what other people think. its like some philosophical mind game or something. (thats what my older sis told me, it made sense back then anyway.)
Actually, one of the band members mentioned that it was about a missed love by two heterosexual boys. There are a couple weak hints, like "I kept your tie" and "we left our trousers," etc.
agreed..it's not talking bout homosexuality in general and per se..it's about the human condition to yearn and like you said, longing..hi-5 mate! and oh yeah, the song rocks, enuff about the lyrics already, people
I'm agree with you. I'm a woman and every time that I listen this song I remember the last time that I saw the man whom changed my life and he never knew nothing about it.
...I still remember how you looked that afternoon. There was only you... you should have asked me for it I would have been brave You should have asked me for it How could I say not?...
You tell me to get a job when you know nothing of me? Dude i suggest me and you stop "bickering" in the comments as this is for people to talk about the song, not bicker....rofl....

I'd say 'inventing' one of the world's most destructive viruses is quite an accomplishment, it would make them god-like in a sense, wouldn't you agree?
honestly, why do people turn these threads into arguments? if you like the vid, say so, and if you don't, find another one. Personally, i love the song. My band's covering it.
fucking hell what is with all the hate in your profile? it's like there's nothing positive you're just some stoner whining about everything that YOU think is wrong with the world.

bloc party are amazin! and who cares about peoples sexualilty as long as there happy? its the 21st centry! but i think its about 2 people who liked each other but cudnt because theyre too shy. but the best thing about music is we intruprt it in our own way and connect to it though happy times or sad times! jsut enjoy it in ur own way :D
You guys are aware that in a lot of schools in England, the uniformity consists of ties, a suit-coat type of apparel, and even on occassions, trousers, right? For both guys and girls.
Note, that I was just pointing that out. I know what the song is about. But I'm just saying. That tends to be the case. Incase some bloke wants to yap.
so what? does it matter what they wear? some schools in melbourne Enforce Blazers, Ties, Trousers etc. and im sure there are other schools that do too.
That comment was made because there are some here arguing that the referrence to trousers and ties automatically means that this song is about two guys. While it is in fact written about 2 guys and an unspoken attraction (as told by Kele), the clothes mentioned means nothing because the uniforms, as you even just pointed out, sometimes consist of those things for females too. That's why I mentioned the clothes.
Bah. I don't remember trousers on the local Woodford girls, and ICHS was an all-boys school (with horrifically ugly maroon blazers). It's a tad creepy to think he might be referring to one of us, but never mind! Hahaha.
He is not gay they did an interview about the song and said he was neither gay or bi and i saw him with plenty of women and the song is about anyone really ,so be open minded and its up to you think its gay or not
I have heard that kele is gay but it's about when he's at school and some girls have to wear ties at school. And there from UK england so they had uniforms
Well Kele has stated that he is attracted to men and it's not clear wether he is bi or not. People always say that it doesn't matter but it does. Being bisexual this song really spoke to me about the unspoken nature of homoeroticism and i think to ignore that is to ignore a lot of the songs meaning. This is a song I will never forget.
