      To this boomer folk, it sounds oddly familiar, like they might've been support act to New Order or be 4AD label mates back in the 80s.
      Down in the cyclist' cellar they played on unknown Human League song, and GoY could well be next one down

    When I moved to London, a few years back, I was feeling low. Really low, to be honest. That's when I very luckily discovered Gang of Youths. I was listening to your songs on very long, very lonely bus rides in a city I was failing to make my own, a city I felt was rejecting me even if I was head over heels with it. I still remember that feeling, I still live in that feeling some nights. Now, years passed, I'm finally in London in the truest, no longer a passenger that's tolerated, no longer on a lonely bus ride somewhere I didn't know. The city now gets me. I feel good here, welcomed. And I have the love of my life at my side; I did before as well, in the dark days, but now I really can enjoy it, appreciate it, be swooned by it and by our life here. Things are falling back into place and you guys put out this amazing, stunning, deep and powerful song. I recognize places, faces and feelings in this video, and I smile when you smile. Thank you and I can't wait for you to be the first band I see live after lockdown.

    This song mashes so much goodness together, it's hard not to love. Grown-up punked-up speed and energy, that New Order-esque bass, illustrative wordplay that could be here there or anywhere (Islington UK, Washington Square NYC). How anyone could be anything less than inspired and mad about this band is beyond me.

I told her how your band saved me from extremely hard times in my life, helps me get through my depression to this day and helped save me from committing suicide. I have had a long journey and your band has been with me for most of it. And is still here with me as I embark on a new journey going forward.
    You guys have a show coming up on September 16th in Saint Louis that we will be going to! I was so scared because It never crossed my mind if you guys were LGBTQ+ supportive. And seeing that you are fills my spirit even more.
    So please excuse me if you see me crying at your show next to my girlfriend lol. You have no idea how much your music has impacted my life. Forever greatful you guys exist. Literally, your music helped me in so many ways. And has saved my life. Say Yes to Life!

    So we got straight to the heart
    And I was a coward and worse to my shame
    I fell hard upon the weightless weeks
    And wasted every day
    'Til you emerged in the park
    Like some patron of Washington Square
    For the first time in a long time
    Inside everything stood clear
    So went out to find me a job
    But I didn't think I would hold this one down
    It gives the same old sinking feeling
    Of fucking hammers in my bowels
    But you are good to me still
    And when my old man was near to the end
    You loved his broken body
    In the same way that I did
    I wanna lay me down
    And be lover of the year
    In this strange new town
    This strange hemisphere
    God, it was state of the art
    You called each of my sorrows by name
    And a tide of tender mercies
    Shook my body from the grave
    And in the festival years
    Of our makeshift parade
    In perpetual fall
    And immeasurable rain
    I wanna see this one out
    And I wanna join the impossible swing
    And fall hard beside you
    Screaming at the bowels of everything
    And in the Islington morn
    You're the angel of 8th
    And what's more, the goddamn
    Greatest thing that Laney ever made
    I wanna lay me down
    And be lover of the year
    And in this strange new town
    This strange hemisphere
    You persuade me now
    To look closer in the mirror
    And I wanna lay me down
    For years and years and years and years
    Ah, there's heaven in you now
    Ah, there's heaven in you now
    Ah, there's heaven in you now
    Ah, there's heaven in you now
    Ah, there's heaven in you now
    Ah, there's heaven in you now
    Ah, there's heaven in you now
    Ah, there's heaven in you now
    There is heaven in you now
    Ah, there's heaven in you now
    Ah, there's heaven in you now
    Ah, there's heaven in you now
    Ah, there's heaven in you now
    There is heaven in you now
    Now, now

    Go Farther in Lightness is probably my favourite ever album, it feels so personal and I always find myself coming back to it. And 4 years later...this feels like listening to an old friend again. Something special about this band and of course this song, keep it up guys. Much love from Ireland!

    Your music really evokes the feelings of a weathered and well lived life, it inspires hope to keep moving forward and the unabashed honesty in the lyrics demand the listener to yearn for something greater than themselves. I love your sound and how you layer your tracks so there is always something fascinating to pay attention to you. Thanks for making soulful music. Sincerely, a new listener :)
