Bloc Party - I Still Remember

[XDmarcsyoXD]

I don't care about Kele being gay, what bothers me is that he is straying from the band and becoming his on artist. And it seems other band members are also joining other bands. :(

[razibhai32]

Absolutely love it! :)

[TheSupernova1992]

sometimes i watch Kele singing and I feel like he's close to crying. there's a lotta soul in his music

[IDontFartInPublic]

they really dont kick it accoustic i think

[justicebringer757]

What he's gay imma burn all the mp3's i downloaded.....Oh wait I dont care about his sex life or anybodies else, but my own!! Ya'll screaming he's gay are fucking stupid!!!! ITS 2010!!!

[drewflickyson]

Favorite bloc party song

[JucyJucex]

I wish bloc party was still together. sad face

[moviemaestro001]

@JucyJucex they technically are i think. they're just taking some time out :) though the sooner they get back int the studio the better. at least we've still got Kele's (lead singer - black guy) solo album so it could be worse!!!!!!!!!

love this song.

[oliviawilliams7]

How does his sexuality effect the music?!?!

Really? Grow up!

[BillandBenRgangstas]

This is fucking beautiful.

[Eddieskater]

Bloc party rocks. I love them to death. I fucking love this song. Please come back to the world. We need you!

[ingrambo30]

got the guitarist sucks!!! horrible!!!!!

great song though!

[musicalman1995]

@ingrambo30 you serious? listen to the prayer and helicopter and then say that again

[ingrambo30]

@musicalman1995 i love those songs...but everybody's good on records and those songs are absolutely simple.....

the song's great

[Jikel7Bob224]

@ingrambo30 the guitarist isnt horrible, although musicalman you picked poor songs to try and represent his skill. Neither the prayer nor helicopter are very complicated, but kele and him work great together. He really is no guitar hero, but he's a great presence, his style is relatively unique, and what he writes sounds great (my opinion), complicated or not. --why do you say he sucks?

[ingrambo30]

@Jikel7Bob224 absolute respect for this band. i love them, theyve got great songs... i just find him mechaninc, to dirty and clumsy with the acoustic. :)

[frankibiris76r]

@Jikel7Bob224 he's a guitar hero in my book :) Russell's work sounds great, almost perfect to me and that's what counts, not if he's a shredder or not..

[Jikel7Bob224]

@frankibiris76r yeah, i personally love his acoustic playing (and takamines sound great) im just saying its not technically complicated

[confuzion999]

@Jikel7Bob224 and?? Playing 'technically complicated' music does not make you a better artist.

[Jikel7Bob224]

@confuzion999 I never said that. Pay closer attention to the conversation.

I absolutely love Lissack and all his work, whether or not it's complicated. That's what im trying to say; it doesnt matter

[confuzion999]

@Jikel7Bob224 Sorry man I only payed attention to the one post you made. And in regards to russel's work, that makes two of us.

[Goal10ding]

Russell Lissack is a guitar BEAST!

[82craigy]

who care,s?????im 100% straight but know gay people,

this is 2010??im comfortable wi ma sexuality a know a love girls

but if your that shallow to judge some ones music about that you shouldnt have

the right to even listen to it,your oviously a gay person in disguise???homophobic

in this day n age???tut tut tut!!!

[kitegirl69]

< 3

[PrestonCopter]

anyone know where i could find the tabs to this? the acoustic is amazing =)

[tomlils17]

absolute tune, top top version

[aliceemoangel182]

This is so awesome... Brings a tear to eye :') Im so glad the band are doing really well, im in love with Rusell!!! <3

[aliceemoangel182]

dont be racist you cunt, bloc party are awesome!

[fluorscentadolscent1]

Thats totally what I mean anyway.

They never found out it was mixed up for me..so hey it's all cool.

Good in the hood now:D

Still fuckin' love them tho,.:D

[incubuskid09]

Wow, the acoustic may very well be better than the original.

[UsernameFat]

@incubuskid09 no

[incubuskid09]

@UsernameFat

lol. I know, but I liked it a lot.

[fatbarstard22]

lol at the start. kele lookn down n cheaking his shoe

[rhymeskill]

trousers

O_o

[foxtrottwoalpha]

WHY are some people SUCH geniuses?!

[Carlos8403]

even the accoustic version is great too. Going to a concet and seeing them do all their songs accoustic would be awsome.

[aliceemoangel182]

ooomigoddd! arent they just amazing :') i would love to see them live one day (:

[DeVinnie111]

I've seen them on Rock Werchter friday :)

[oddfdfkjbsfb]

seeing them live, its an almost magical experience. just so fucking good, u fall even more in love wiht the band after. hope u see them soon.

[FlourscentAdolscent1]

I just simply love it.

It reminds me of mixd up times:S

Brillliance tho: )

[charlesbwfc]

what the hell are you on about?

[joeythea]

Another amazing Acoustic piece By the Blocs!! ..x

[purplehaze2144]

so is he talking about a guy throughout this song. methinks

[Vader12Tater12]

it doesn't matter.... it's a good song either way

[purplehaze2144]

o no doubt. bloc party is amazing!

[calummoran69]

no, he wrote the song about his ex-girlfriend, kele isnt actually gay, its just a rumour.

[fubar12345]

Nope, look it up, comment below has it right, it's about unspoken desire.

[SnakeDeShazer]

yeah its unspoken desire, but you can think about it as break up or ex girl/boy friend song too

[Un1c0RnArmy]

the basic idea of this song is an unspoken desire of 2 straight boys but never really explored

[Vader12Tater12]

this is such a great acoustic. Probably better than the original. It just appeals to your remicent senses more.... those 'endless summer acoustic guitars'....

[yelir92]

i just cried a bit

[onlysomedays]

Oh wow.:o

[lamiss52360]

Elle est simplement géniale cette chanson =D

[zoucoli325]

i love this version

[elrockydelsiglo]

what a nice accent and an excellent voice and lyrics

[angelene9]

beautiful lyrics

[juhnior88]

need a chords for this...pls reply here or send me them like PM...thanks o lot...

[yingleberry]

juhnior88 I just started working this song out. For the 1st verse to chorus I play F B flat C D minor then back to F doesn't sound great playing along with this version but sounds very close to the way it's played on the album.

[juhnior88]

thanks...F,B flat C D sounds for me not so good but its ok...i already found the version on ultimate-guitar...(i think that this page is best for searching tags and chords)...but i didn´t find version for this acoustic session...or I am stupid:)

[REVIVETHERADIO]

beautiful song.

[farfallinanera]

great voice. this band is so fucking cool.

[SilentAlarm1912]

jragster you're a dick, jesusjuice meant that he/she didn't get what you meant by " and he is black", its fucking illogical. you dont say " oh caleb followill's got a good voice, and he's white" do you? fucking prick

[CharlySpain1986]

olé okelele

[platinumchief]

You mean Okereke.

[BoogeymanE14]

my mate used to date his cousin

[clarkoggg]

niicce...

[jragster1988]

is he black? yes he fucking is, whats the problem with that? you racist bastard!

[jragster1988]

Awesome song, and he is black

[jesusjuice7414]

what was the point of mentioning that he's black???

[joshy899]

man bloc partys so awesome acoustic especially this modern love

[greensidedown]

absolutley AMAZING

[Jikel7Bob224]

seriously guys!? who cares if he's gay or not! their music is amazing and thats really all that matters

[stevieballs22]

@Jikel7Bob224 you said it perfectly...who caaaares!

[joshy899]

i heard keles bi

[alexis9290]

I thought kele was like married with kids?!

[BoutToCallBovice]

Nope. Gordon and Matt are married, Russel has a girlfriend and Kele hasn't revealed any relationships.

[robbin182]

russell is getting married in 2009 he's angeged (i don't how to spell it rigth sorry:P)

[danyrhiw]

so?

[ThatXZombieXDood]

wait what?

kele isnt gay?

[stereosunburst]

This song is about a male crush that lead singer Kele Okereke had, which was never taken to the next level. (thanks, Martin - Eastbourne, England)Kele Okereke talked about the song at some length in his January 2007 The Observer interview, responding to questions as to whether the song had an autobiographical nature:

Not really ... I guess, partially. [Can we call it a gay love story?] Yeah, but is it a love story? It's one person longing for somebody they can't really have.

[voltage17121712]

Your pathetic.

[AddictNANA]

YAY i finally have this version in mp3 format! <333 bloc partyyyyyyyyy!

[TimVS4000]

care to share with the rest of us how you did it?

(well with those arent competent with a computer)

xx

[thecoolestninja]

awesome!

[AddictNANA]

DAMN the lead singer is AMAZING! this song is just perfect

[zoshisama]

song is even more amazing live! Bloc Party Rocks!!!

[blablablamexxx]

an acoustic with steel strings ;) is it?

[Napier99]

Yeah, but i think its elctro-acoustic, thats why it has that kind of twangy sound

[bloc22]

what kind of guitar is that??

[cozlovesblocparty]

omgosh. i love them i love them i love them.

i still remember has always been one of my favourite songs.

not just on a weekend in the city, but out of everything.

amazing.

[mynameisalyf]

russel has pure talent man.

BEAUTIFUL.

[Khodne]

I seriously cried the first time I heard this...

"I should have kissed you" and "Id love you if you asked me" went straight to my heart..

[DaveWoody07]

kele's singing is alot better live that it was(:

[revengeguy]

beautiful

[unplugged1112]

kele's voice is amazing. he is god in my eyes.

does russel ever look up when he plays?

[qwazatheFIRST]

hew does in ALOT of live performances lols but i tend to think hes just into the song when he doesnt

[Aaronw111]

That's like russel. hes quite quiet, but hes still a brilliant guitarist!

[Casualyme]

absolutely beautiful

[diana47]

This song makes me feel incredibly wistful.HAIL BLOC PARTY!

[istillremember6]

these are the lyrics everyone wishes they had written. so beautiful.

[sinsecurities]

they are amazing lyrics. the concept is so striking and out there..."two straight boys having an unspeakable attraction" as kele said. beautiful song nonetheless...people can interpret in their own way.

[bloc22]

i always that was so interesting. love the song!

[jonny6666]

Reminds me of an adventurous summer, 10 year olds getting into trouble and laughing :) Amazing. love it

[jonny6666]

Deal with it? ok the was a bit ott, but a good song non the less

[sinsecurities]

no...you're not off...it is about boys...haha. i love bloc party. ^_^

[fropskottel]

Everytime I hear this song I wish it was about me, it is just sooo pretty and cute and all such :)

[Tetrapodbomb]

[gregwind]
