Con este track quedé impactado por White Lies. Me fascina cuando los jóvenes adoptan y adaptan el sonido de los 80's y lo reimaginan. Es como si hicieran nueva música vieja ¡me encantan!
Lyrics So if you go And leave recklessly 'We' can only be me 'We' can only be me That's something I Through the turns of my life Never wanted to be Never wanted to be But if you stay Just a bolt in the bow Then you'll never know Then you'll never know How you could miss Like the daylight, the way You're missing us now You're missing us now So listen to some reason There's nothing in your dreams But if you're getting even You're getting even Trying to get even? Better start believing I can forgive And we can forget Even after all this Love and other nonsense we've made Now if we kiss Then the moon in the sky Would linger awhile Would linger awhile So as to gift Just an inch more of night But you break from my life No more kiss, no more I But listen to some reason There's nothing in your dreams! But if you're getting even You're getting even Trying to get even? Better start believing I can forgive And we can forget Even after all this Wrestling of conscience I can forgive And we can forget Even after all this Love and other nonsense It's the worst part of the best of me Best of me Love, I'm trying so hard to be free Worst got the best of me, best of me Love, I'm trying so hard to be free Lonely but free and out of love If you're getting even You're getting even [x3] Trying to get even? Better start believing I can forgive And we can forget Even after all this Wrestling of conscience I can forgive And we can forget Even after all this Love and other nonsense You're getting even [x2] And I can forgive And we can forget You're getting even You're getting even [x4]
I find it endearing that their progressions occur so quickly. There is very little "dead space" in their tracks. Once the track begins, the vocals follow soon, along with more instrumentation. They make truly amazing and thoughtful music. Yeah, I CAN'T get these lads off my playlist. Rad!
Soy metalero pero estos muchachos hacen una buena música de hecho fueron bastante atrevidos eh innovadores,con unos musicos de primera para lograr este tipo de sonido moderno .
Even to this day, these young men blend a very exquisite malgam of modern sounds and production with an anthemic feel not unlike some music made before they were even born. Old souls making some absolutely eclectic material with pride, and seamlessly doing so. Amazing troupe!
The track explores the complexities and aftermath of a troubled relationship. The lyrics suggest a sense of resignation and acceptance for the situation at hand, while also expressing feelings of longing and a desire for resolution. In the first verse, the narrator acknowledges their reluctance to become someone they never wanted to be, possibly due to the actions or behavior of their partner. The line "we can only be me" implies a sense of self-preservation and a refusal to compromise their own identity. The second verse delves into the consequences of staying in a stagnant relationship. The line "then you'll never know how you could miss like the daylight the way you're missing us now" suggests that by refusing to confront or address the problems in the relationship, the partner is missing out on the potential for growth and happiness. The chorus serves as a plea for reconciliation and understanding. It suggests that if the partner can listen to reason and overcome their desire for revenge or "getting even," forgiveness and healing are possible. The mention of "all this love and other nonsense" implies that despite the ups and downs, the love shared between the two is worth fighting for. The third verse introduces the idea of a consequential kiss, symbolizing the potential for unity and connection. However, the partner's decision to break away from the narrator's life signifies the end of that potential. This further emphasizes the sense of missed opportunities and the pain of separation. The bridge speaks to the conflicting emotions within the narrator, describing themselves as the "worst part of the best of me." There is a struggle between love and the desire for freedom, potentially hinting at the internal battles faced in trying to salvage the relationship. The pre-chorus and subsequent repetitions of the chorus highlight the theme of "getting even." It suggests that revenge or seeking retribution will not lead to resolution, but rather forgiveness, understanding, and a genuine attempt to fix the relationship are necessary. The song concludes with the repeated lines "you're getting even, and I can forgive, and we can forget." Here, the narrator expresses their willingness to let go of past grievances and move forward, allowing for the possibility of healing and reconciliation. Overall, "Getting Even" delves into the complexities of relationships, highlighting the importance of communication, forgiveness, and a shared determination to overcome obstacles. It invites listeners to reflect on their own experiences with troubled relationships and the potential for growth through empathy and understanding.
@@luisfreitas5308 Estranho mesmo,até são conhecidos só pros Garimpeiros de coisa boa aqui no Brasil, acho que Europa e States tocam mais nas radios as musicas deles pq aqui tem que tocar umas coisas toscas feitas aqui😏😆, e vc Tem razão, é o tipo de banda q não tem musica ruim, eles nos anos 80 q a Qualidade era Otima , seriam mais lembrados👍
So Stunnning... Sound that keeps you awake whatever boring humor is!!... Still sticking to their dark style. The mixing of two rythms at the end is such a delight!!!!!!
This song always makes me tear up and is hard to listen to cause it reminds me of the time when I broke up with the love of my life and will always regret that. Biggest mistake of my life.
Heard this LIVE as a Supporting Act at 30 Seconds to Mars, I came home and literally fell in love with this band.. Makes sense, go to see a band for their music, come home loving a totally new one.
Amazing sound!!!!! cannot be more agree with all of you... Depeche mode fusioned with a+ha!!!!!! it´s like if this song had 30 years old!!!!! i just can´t believe it!!!!!!!!! great!!!!!!!!!!!!
Those synth landscapes, the epic vocals, the guitars exactly where they should be... are what we came for, but that bass is really a pulsating heartbeatey thing!
he escuchado muchas veces esta canción (y otras de este álbum) y es primera vez que me doy cuenta que la persona de la imagen cierra los ojos cada ciertos segundos, omgggggggggggg

One of the best albums of 2010s, criminally underappreciated.
Para mí es el mejor 🤟😎
Sin duda uno de los mejores álbumes de la década de los 10's ..... Lamentablemente está infravalorado :/
Not for me!😊
This is good. Never heard of them before.

This song is A+ to listen to while in a car
+lumpyspacelion I would say its A+ to listen to anytime!! :)
cars so fire dx
It makes my 1100cc fiat panda sounds like a v12 Lamborghini.
good to know
I just think the way he says; "I can forgive And we can forget" is the most beautiful thing I've heard in a while.
So underestimated band :(
That chorus... What a masterpiece... Combination of instrumental, vocals, rhythm and lyrics. Perfect
Even with lackluster lyrics it's still a rock masterpiece!

La primera vez que oí a white lies creí que estaba oyendo a tears for fears

2022 and still a banger. Song is straight 🔥🤘🏻
This song really need a music video !!!!!!
Lyrics
So if you go
And leave recklessly
'We' can only be me
'We' can only be me
That's something I
Through the turns of my life
Never wanted to be
Never wanted to be
But if you stay
Just a bolt in the bow
Then you'll never know
Then you'll never know
How you could miss
Like the daylight, the way
You're missing us now
You're missing us now
So listen to some reason
There's nothing in your dreams
But if you're getting even
You're getting even
Trying to get even?
Better start believing
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this
Love and other nonsense we've made
Now if we kiss
Then the moon in the sky
Would linger awhile
Would linger awhile
So as to gift
Just an inch more of night
But you break from my life
No more kiss, no more I
But listen to some reason
There's nothing in your dreams!
But if you're getting even
You're getting even
Trying to get even?
Better start believing
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this
Wrestling of conscience
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this
Love and other nonsense
It's the worst part of the best of me
Best of me
Love, I'm trying so hard to be free
Worst got the best of me, best of me
Love, I'm trying so hard to be free
Lonely but free and out of love
If you're getting even
You're getting even [x3]
Trying to get even?
Better start believing
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this
Wrestling of conscience
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this
Love and other nonsense
You're getting even [x2]
And I can forgive
And we can forget
You're getting even
You're getting even [x4]
going to comment in hopes this gets put to the top :) Thanks for the lyrics!
No, they're getting better. Even better.
Did they ever write a bad song?
Never
@@dieg729an impossibly
No no they did not ever ,👍🤣😜🤟
favorite song on the album. white lies keeps writing amazing songs.
still dark, still post punk, still stone hearted.
Thank you.
The Chameleons & The Sound got there first and are a million times better.

that blinking eye..fucked me up !!! lol..great great song...
Kosmonaut vladimir blinks at you
I wish this song could last forever... And ever... and ever...
ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS 2021.😊🇬🇧❤️
That voice reminds me Alphaville. I love this song.
Masz dziwny nick pozdrawiam
Between Marian Gold (Alphaville) and Roland Orzabal (Tears for Fears).
Люблю 😍 😘 эту песню, когда её слышу сразу улыбка на лице и приятная дрожь по телу замечательная группа 🤘 🤘
Солидарен)
А я вот в слова вчиталась впервые после долгого времени, и теперь только плакать получается
Но песня как была сокровищем, так и осталась!
I can't help but see Cooper from Interstellar on the cover art :)
Soy metalero pero estos muchachos hacen una buena música de hecho fueron bastante atrevidos eh innovadores,con unos musicos de primera para lograr este tipo de sonido moderno .
Tuve la fortuna de verlos en Monterrey, México. Es de esas bandas que se disfrutan más en vivo.
this band is the most amazing in the fckng world, love them!
agreed
I love the sense of defiance from this song.
This song reminds me the 80's music. I can go back to my childhood
Even to this day, these young men blend a very exquisite malgam of modern sounds and production with an anthemic feel not unlike some music made before they were even born. Old souls making some absolutely eclectic material with pride, and seamlessly doing so. Amazing troupe!
First heard this at Starbucks. Love the guitar hooks and strings. Instant favorite.
Your Starbucks must be fucking awesome ._. Mine just plays jazz.
It was actually from Spotify, one of the employees was playing his station. I guess it depends on if the manager is ok with it.

I almost cried when I heard the first 2 seconds. Then I actually cried at the end of the song. So thankful for their return
Just found this song yesterday. I'm obsessed! I haven't replayed a song more than once in a row since I was a teenager.

Me acabo de dar cuenta también xD
Me pegué buen susto! jajajaja
No me agrado el final, siento que no debió ir ese coro largo, para mio debió seguir las letras y lo agudo, así quedaría mejor uu
Favourite song right now. Excellent
So if you go
And leave recklessly
We can only be me
We can only be me
That's something I
Through the tons of my life
Never wanted to be
Never wanted to be
But if you stay
Just a bolt in the ball
Then you'll never know
Then you'll never know
How you could miss
Like the day light the way
You're missing us now
You're missing us now
So listen to some reason
There's nothing in your dreams
But if you're getting even
You're getting even
Trying to get even
Better start believing
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this
Love and other nonsense we've made
Now if we kiss
Then the moon in the sky
We'd linger a while
We linger a while
So ask to give just an inch more of night
But you break from my life
No more kiss, no more I
But listen to some reason
There's nothing in your dreams
But if you're getting even
You're getting even
Trying to get even
Better start believing
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this wrestling of conscience
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this
Love and other nonsense
It's the worst part of the best of me, best of me
Love, I'm trying so hard to be free
Worst of the best of me, best of me
Love, I'm trying so hard to be free
Lonely but free
And out of love
If you're getting even
You're getting even
If you're getting even
You're getting even
If you're getting even
You're getting even
Trying to get even
Better start believing
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this wrestling of conscience
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this
Love and other nonsense
You're getting even
You're getting even
And I can forgive
And we can forget
You're getting even
You're getting even
And I can forgive
And we can forget
You're getting even
You're getting even
And I can forgive
And we can forget
You're getting even
You're getting even
(And I can forgive)
(And we can forget)
(You're getting even)
