  • @Yuppie007 word to a mamifakaaa.....

  • best song of White Lies

  • @RedSox93163 I almost agree, I think the best one is Unfinished Business...

  • @RedSox93163 Farewell To The Fairground is the best song EVER!!!

  • This song is so epic! Definitely my favorite White Lies track...

  • I agree;)

  • This is really a very good band!I'm a big fan since i heard them for the first time.

    The 80's sound is soooo awesome!Hopefully they carry on the same level in the future!

  • I'm a 43 years old french guy....my fav band is The Sound....obviously from the 80's......i have to say that i hate today's music.......To lose my life is an ufo in the music industry.......absolutly brilliant....it's good to see young people who know what music is.....

  • When I saw them on jools holland in 2008 i knew they were going to big, there brilliant! I love the string part and of course the lyrics!!

  • i think i have a new favorite band.

    this band is beyond awesome, this music is exactly what i need.

  • 1:55 is the best part. I love this band.

  • hey does anyone know who the lead singer is?

  • harry mcveigh

  • @parrishcc0027

    it's Harry McVeigh.

  • @parrishcc0027 have you heard of this new technology called "Google" I hear it's kicking up quite a fuss - apparently you can search for anything you want

  • Best live gig i've ever been to... And that's over some pretty kick ass band.

    All round awesomeness. x

  • nice stuff! thanks for posting! xo the vicious guns

  • this band is so amazing....it takes a little bit of something from a bunch of other bands and creates something truly great. Awesome song.

  • they reminde me of joy division in other songs... i tell ya, this band will end up playing at stadiums in a near future! cant wait to see them live

  • @mulicnik i hope that they're great :D

  • This bad is incredible reminds me of The Cure

  • me too, also the begining of this song brings to my mind Franz Ferdinand..

  • i really think this is an excellent debut album and i wouldn't be suprised if they become a big band in the future. they remind me of U2 as well.

  • @dgmcl3284 i hope that :D

  • they were beyond amazing last night :]

  • Going to see them tonight(DUBLIN) can't farking wait!

  • soo goood. have been looking for good stuff to listen to and I believe I have youtubed into the right stuff

  • does anyone have any idea what this song is about?

  • the demo was soooooo much better. I miss those days. it had far more 80s synth

  • id like to hear that it sounds good any ideas where i could hear it?White Lies + more synth would be greeeeat

  • leeds 22nd november

  • is that next sunday cos thats when im seeing them...at leeds academy

  • yes n they wer fuckin sweet that night....i was there :-)

  • I'm really starting to like this band!(^w^)

  • If their first album is anything to go by these lads will go down in music history!

  • this is my favorite song.

  • if u like this band what others would i like ???

    thanks :)

  • hi, well i like stuf like muse, editors, joy division, killers, interpol, keane, the fray, etc. and loads of amazing 80s bands like dm, the cure, echo and the bunnymen, new order, etc.

  • I heard this for the first time recently and i must say the first band i thought of was Joy Division <3

  • Type this into wiki "post-punk revival music" just read that page and there will be bands listed.

    Other than that, The Killers and Joy Division are the obvious choices

  • Just like me

  • They all look run down and so forlorn

    : P

  • che triste..mi ricorda quei giorni a Firenze..che bello..:( peccato che siano passati 7 mesi ormai e io non mi sono ancora dimenticata di te..al contrario tuo..

  • This starts up sounding like........ something very bad.... but it´s soooo good after a minute and a half or so...... Love it!

  • POST-PUNK! :)

  • Best indie band ever because they r nothing like indie lol. Really like them but what the hell genre r they. to heavy ( and good) for indie, i think rock it is.

  • I was so disappointed when they never played this at the Coldplay gig in Glasgow last month...

  • Just saw White Lies with Kings Of Leon in concert last night. I went right to my computer as soon as I got home and downlouded their songs! They are awsome I wish I knew them earlier

  • Take a seat over there.

  • the lyrics are just amazing, love white lies. they're sick live!

  • stunning

  • i love white lies..

    there so cool and different!!!

    keep it up lads and youll be MASSIVE!!!

    its so sad they dont have any gigs in the republic of ireland though..sucks:(

  • yeah i thought the same, but on their website appears a date for dublin in december! :D I'm happy!!!

  • brilliant song Whites Lies amazing band lads keep up the great music

  • Haha, when i heard this song, it was like playing a little film through my head :/ It sounds like a really sad story of a broken childhood.

  • I looked at it more of a guy who is a celebrity but is not happy with his life. Things he looked at before isn't as good as it is now. The whole what happened to the buildings when he is going though his old city, when he was happy they looked great but now all grown up and has all this money but finds himself not happy.

  • This is amazing, never had heard about whitelies till i heard farewell to the fairground, almost all the songs I've heard of theirs are good, E.S.T is my fav after farewell to the fairground...

  • hah,me too, i have the same taste in their music as u do! those are exactly my favs too in this order!

  • THEY ARE THE NEXT BIG BAND. I knew it the first time i heard their songs. They were voted #2 Sound of 2009 by BBC

  • Amazing. Now, why can't more bands be as inventive as this one?

  • If these were around 20 years ago, they would be praised more than Stone Roses. And I LOVE Stone Roses.

  • thought thet were ok the 1st time i heard the album 2nd time i loved them now i think they r going 2 b up there with radiohead and killers but prob bigger

  • I'll be seeing them for the second time in November. I really really cannot wait! Think I might go kidnap them and force them to do a private gig, that's how much I can't wait!!!

  • they remind me a bit of joy division

    and i'm not hating it .

  • well annoyed they didn't play this at Reading. probably still enjoyed them the most thought out of all bands.

  • Seen them live once, and it was the best ever! I so want to se them again.

  • Brilliant!

  • I've seen them live twice. Awesome!

  • this song reminds me of the harold in "Harold and Maude".

  • drums rly sound like joy dividion

  • The band in general really remind me of Joy Division!

  • Good Song Nothing Compared to Farewell To The Fairground

  • ye i totally agree with samware89 this is a great song 1 of the best from the album - they really should bring it out

  • I wish they would release this one

    the lyrics are sooo powerful

    and it would make a cracking video

    seen them live and they are awesome <3

  • ways to describe this band

    inspirational.

    uplifting.

    honest

    x

  • I love them..

  • I'd say exactly the opposite. I like the short, metaphorical snapshot stories of their fatalistic world view while the instrumental is just monotonous and lacks melody. My suggestion: Go for poetry or exchange the keyboard player, the guitarist and the drummer - basically everyone. :-p

  • "He dind't cry when the priest gave the sermon."

    Amazing they seem to have the most beautiful songs.

    Dont know why but the songs of White Lies always remind me of my land

  • YEAH

  • ładne

  • Fantastic

  • luv it how the drums kick in at 1;06 its awsome thn the guitar kicks few seconds later absolute awsome

  • From 1:55, don't you get the feeling you are galloping on a horse, lol?

  • yessssssssssssssss !

  • Yesss :P

  • the best song from the album

  • cant decide between this and price of love

  • This one and E.S.T. are the best (i think :D)

  • wow nice song:)

  • ohhhh..from 4:00 is a great solo:P:)

  • Super...

  • yeah i know. yay drummers! :P

  • I love when the strings come in. It makes it all more emotional. This song's amazing!

  • REALLY good, the lyrics makes me so sad though their stuff goes so deep... but thats good! but sometimes i dont wanna be sad... but yeah AWESOME SONG!!!! GREAT!!!!!!! :)

  • and the song lifts my feelings up! and makes me happy!!! :) GREAT!!!!!! WOOW YEAHHHH! goes deep and makes me so happy and makes me wanna get up and dance! (but still I feel down, confused listening to the lyrics, so sad and stuff but tells you about the guy... deep stuff!)! :)

  • Not much music these days can provoke emotion!! just shows good talent! and anyway the whole point of music is to convey emotion, alot of people forget that!
