The first time I heard this song, it brought the biggest smile to face. Such a brilliant song. Lyrics are outstanding : "Hate - it's gonna overrun this town." Love the different movements: the acoustic in the interlude, the backing vocals in the second verse. This song just works. I'm so in love with song
I have been playing this song on repeat for weeks. It is such a great song and has really helped me overcome some anger issues I've been dealing with lately. #RitzyIsMyHero
When I spent some time in Yorkshire everyone could tell by my accent I’m Welsh. More than a few times I’d get ‘you lot have Stereophonics and Tom Jones.’ I’d say ‘if you want Welsh music at its best, listen to Joy Formidable and the Super Furry Animals.’ 🏴🏴🏴♥️💚
Hope it dries the mouth The enemy clear The trees pulled out The song That’s still within Flattens the void that Moi began Hate [x5] It’s gonna overrun this town As soon as the moon goes to nothing Wait [x5] They’re always gonna run you down It’s better to face my something So the roots were long Each flower a claw that reminds the man And love still kept you there The memory earthed for us to share You laid the land Laid bare So, all I do is stare Hate [x4] It’s gonna overrun this town It follows you everywhere They’re always gonna run you down It’s better to face my something [x2] You’re their fort standing Nothing can shake your walls One will that’s worth so many The leopard and the lung You’re their fort standing Nothing can shake your walls One will that’s worth so many The leopard at their throats You’re their fort standing [x5] Hate [x5] It’s gonna overrun this town As soon as the moon goes to nothing Wait [x5] They’re always gonna run you down It’s better to face, it’s better to face my something
"It's gonna overrun this town"
That one line gives me the chills everytime i hear it.
This is a metaphysical and magical work of art. They need to release an official live version because I can only imagine how amazing it would be.
Check out their live concert from 2016 - ruclips.net/video/iaKUU_W-g0o/видео.html - they freaking rock out the entire show, including TL&TL.

This is currently my most favorite song on the planet!
Am i the only one that finds it difficult finding the words to describe how beautiful this song is?!?! Absolute new favorite TJF song!!
I love this song
Not alone. TJF is, like, my new favorite artist now. Their originality, sound, and creativity just sheds a whole new light on music in general for me.

This song is so good I love joy formidable
Words can't describe how amazing this song is.
Hope it dries the mouth
The enemy clear
The trees pulled out
The song
That’s still within
Flattens the void that Moi began
Hate [x5]
It’s gonna overrun this town
As soon as the moon goes to nothing
Wait [x5]
They’re always gonna run you down
It’s better to face my something
So the roots were long
Each flower a claw that reminds the man
And love still kept you there
The memory earthed for us to share
You laid the land
Laid bare
So, all I do is stare
Hate [x4]
It’s gonna overrun this town
It follows you everywhere
They’re always gonna run you down
It’s better to face my something [x2]
You’re their fort standing
Nothing can shake your walls
One will that’s worth so many
The leopard and the lung
You’re their fort standing
Nothing can shake your walls
One will that’s worth so many
The leopard at their throats
You’re their fort standing [x5]
Hate [x5]
It’s gonna overrun this town
As soon as the moon goes to nothing
Wait [x5]
They’re always gonna run you down
It’s better to face, it’s better to face my something
beautiful as always! I can not wait to see you guys in Boston next month!!!
