      This combined with "I'd have let you if you asked me" really nails those mixed feelings you get when you look back at what could have been. On one hand you hate yourself for not making a move, but on the other hand you're wishing they just made the first move and it would have been easy. Sometimes we just don't know what to do in those situations and the opportunity slowly dissipates. Regardless, the memory stays with you forever; "I still remember".

    • @-gator4732
      @-gator4732 2 года назад +3

      I am convinced this song is about a potential homosexual relationship. The main singer claims the song was about a man. He is also very “dodgy” about songs about his sexuality. I think he is Bisexual and doesn’t really fit into the straight/gay boxes that people want to put him into.

    I Still Remember
    Bloc Party
    I still remember
    How you looked that afternoon
    There was only you
    You said it's just like a full moon
    Blood beats faster in our veins
    We left our trousers by the canal
    And our fingers, they almost touched
    You should have asked me for it
    I would have been brave
    You should have asked me for it
    How could I say no?
    And our love could have soared
    Over playgrounds and rooftops
    Every park bench screams your name
    I kept your tie
    I've gone wherever you wanted
    And on that teachers' training day
    We wrote our names on every train
    Laughed at the people off to work
    So monochrome and so lukewarm
    And I can see our days are becoming nights
    I could feel your heartbeat across the grass
    We should have run
    I would go with you anywhere
    I should have kissed you by the water
    You should have asked me for it
    And our love could have soared
    I would let you if you asked me
    I still remember

    • @Ukraineaissance2014
      @Ukraineaissance2014 Год назад

      He was, I can distinctly remember we knew he was at least bi sexual even with the first album, he didnt like to talk about it in interviews but everybody sort of knew he was gay buy didnt really care enough to push the issue I suppose. This song was openly about a same sex attraction between teachers

    • @daithiard
      @daithiard 5 месяцев назад +2

      Sorry, but this song is about 2 teenagers not teachers. It's not only in the lyrics (teachers are not likely to be writing their names on ever train during a teacher training day while the kids are all off) but he's spoken about it loads.
      I was Bloc Party fan back in the day, they were one of the few good indie bands that came to West Coast of Ireland regularly
      He came out publicly about the time of the song, likely to get ahead of the Tabloids doing it. It may have been an open secret before that for your average listener, it wasn't known (or cared about) widely.
      Again, he's spoken about this quite a bit, you don't have to take my word for it.
      Regardless, wonderful song

    This was the song that introduced me to the band and Hunting For Witches made me love them. I get all the feels listening to this track.

    Only if I had known that it would be the last camp in my high school life, I would've gotten on the stage and sang some nice songs for her... I hate my lack of self-confidence a lot, many opportunities came and I let them go cuz I was afraid of embarrassment. Fuck.

      Nostalgic in reference to the lyrics, not when the song was released.

      For me it's nostalgic in both senses of the word though. It may not be super old, but when you're young 5 years ago is a long time ago.

    Quite possibly one of the most beautiful songs i've ever heard, and the most incredible video clip. Someday, i wanna meet them in person i can tell them how inspirationally beautiful they are.
