this is the perfect example of this album as a whole: the sad lonely guy who acts like a shitty dude because he thinks it makes him look cool, when in reality he's just crying out for love and affection. This is how Alex Cameron make characters like these feel like real people with real flaws, and then makes you feel real empathy for them. Love it
Last week I saw Alex Cameron waiting outside the Disney Store in Bologna all by himself, just giving no fucks. It was exactly how you would imagine randomly spotting him on the street. An all-time great moment in my life hahaha
In any rational universe, this guy would be a massive, huge huge huge artist, topping the Billboard charts (if that's still a thing). Great songwriter, great charisma.
Thats so awesome. I once saw Alex do Billy Idols 'Hot In The City' live. It was just before the first record came out, and it was just him and a shitty keyboard in a park in Sydney.
Discovering Jumping The Shark last year was truly one of the greatest discoveries I've made to date, and Alex Cameron is amongst the most electrifying and mesmerising characters in music right now. I cannot begin to describe how excited I am for this new record. It's going to soundtrack my winter discontent. All love to you Alex
I was him at Primavera in Barcelona a few months ago. I was pleasantly surprise with how entertaining and good he is live, easily surpassed my expectations. If you are a fan then I'd highly recommend catching him live, it gave me a new appreciation for 'Jump The Shark' and got me excited for the new album.
I just saw him live yesterday supporting The Killers at Hyde Park. I was blown away... I knew he was good live but hearing those songs live was amazing. My love for him only grows 💕
yeh but if he was "mainstream" and oh so firkin popular with 30 million hits, perhaps we wouldn't see true art like this song and vid.. He is disgustingly sexy and a bit awkward...I like!
when i first heard this song i was disappointed that it was so basic? with all the hype and everything. now its my favourite song and i bump it 24/7, this man is a genius
I only heard these for the first time last night, they were supporting The Killers in Liverpool. Really enjoyed their songs!! Loving 'Candy May' and 'Politics of Love'. They sounded great live as well.
Candy May, I think I'm dying Yeah, 'cause I'm frail and I'm tired And I constantly complain about the pain I'm in But Candy May, she knows me better, yes, she knows my ways She has seen me naked, she knows I'm packing heat She has a way of saying "baby, come to me" complete She's my sweet sweet Candy May Got me stuck and I want to stay But I never wanted to look shocked Down the barrel of a broken heart So I live with a deep regret Of all I do on the internet And I'm filled with a dirty white guilt She's a brown on her doily frills She loves me still Sweetest eyes, so dark and shining They see a shadow in their vision Then it fades and then it dies, sweetest eyes But Candy May, don't think I'm lying I got a flavor in my mouth, it never truly goes away That's Candy May So when you see me and Candy May And we're walking down the street at a mean pace And she is crying out "You f'n lonely man "You worthless piece of shit You all wouldn't understand" 'Cause Candy May, I know she loves me in her own true way You call it as you see it, you think you know the score But you just never had a girl like Candy May before She's my sweet sweet Candy May Got me stuck and I want to stay But I never wanted to look shocked Down the barrel of a broken heart So I live with a deep regret Of all I do on the internet And I'm filled with a dirty white guilt She's a brown on her doily frills She's my sweet sweet Candy May Got me stuck and I want to stay But I never wanted to look shocked Down the barrel of a broken heart So I live with a deep regret Of all I do on the internet And I'm filled with a dirty white guilt She's a brown on her doll with frills She's my sweet sweet Candy May Got me stuck and I want to stay But I never wanted to look shocked Down the barrel of a broken heart So I live with a deep regret Of all I do on the internet And I'm filled with a dirty white guilt She's a brown on her doily frills She loves me still
ZERO dislikes. That's the way it should be! Great track, interesting video. Watch out you so-called "artists"! This is Alex Cameron, and he's one of the very best. #CandyMay #ForcedWitness
When I first heard this. I thought I had this real nostalgic feel like some random song I'd see in the end credits of a 90s movie when I was a young pre-teen. Then saw that other video from this album that is the end credits, and had that same nostalgic feel..lol.
Ok ok, i'm here because of Big Enough meme, i have to say thanks for that i discovered a great singer as Alex Cameron, nice song! left suscription , like and bell.
You are one of my modern favourites, but don't know why all my modern favourites don't get huge public attention what they rightfully deserve . Maybe future generations will value u folks more

hey, that's me but I kind of replaced negative attention with love and affection.
The beauty is that he makes you feel for the person who can't feel for themselves
Last week I saw Alex Cameron waiting outside the Disney Store in Bologna all by himself, just giving no fucks. It was exactly how you would imagine randomly spotting him on the street. An all-time great moment in my life hahaha
Alex consistently out here making modern day feel like the 80s again.
Greg feel exactly same man the 80s Alex is just a genius
skchalivetlnd And that's a bad thing?
name a million bands that sound like this so i can listen to them too please
But his music is still in touch with the modern day so well it's impressive.
3 months late but yeah go check out John Maus if you haven't already.
Alex Cameron is a fecking genius. And is packing heat.
(*/ω＼*)
She knows
Oh god i love Alex Cameron's style !!!
In any rational universe, this guy would be a massive, huge huge huge artist, topping the Billboard charts (if that's still a thing). Great songwriter, great charisma.
Tuan Jim I agree
"She has seen me naked, she knows I'm packing heat." Always makes me smile
I think I've watched this a thousand times already.
David Sowers that makes two of us
Superb song.
Heard him sing this last night as Billy Idols opening act, he was so good!
Thats so awesome. I once saw Alex do Billy Idols 'Hot In The City' live. It was just before the first record came out, and it was just him and a shitty keyboard in a park in Sydney.
So glad Brandon Flowers heard him, I can see why he invited him to collaborate, this is very good music
Discovering Jumping The Shark last year was truly one of the greatest discoveries I've made to date, and Alex Cameron is amongst the most electrifying and mesmerising characters in music right now.

Agreed! Have you seen him live?

Obvious half-assed Nick Cave larp seems to work on people.
ANPHKI yeah why not?
Such an underrated artist
yeh but if he was "mainstream" and oh so firkin popular with 30 million hits, perhaps we wouldn't see true art like this song and vid.. He is disgustingly sexy and a bit awkward...I like!
K this dude's my new favorite everything.
Amen. "Forced Witness" is my new favorite. Serious. See ya in Oakland CA!
Years later but im still singing along in my car whenever this song comes up on my playlist
His vocals and appearance remind me a bit of Nick Cave
He's at least more subtle about it than Alex Turner.
He has a Cave-like quality.
In his tank top and jeans, he slightly reminds me of Freddie Mercury
Yeah, employs that "cool walk", for one. A little Lanegan in there, too. Standing on the shoulders of giants...
Every theatral frontman is inspired by Nick Cave?
C'mon, at the end everyone is trying to copy Elvis and Scott Walker.
The song left a flavor in mouth that truly never goes away.....
Mr. Bubz that’s Candy May
shadreN
She has the sweetest eyes
best song for friday chillout!
How is it possible that this song doesnt even have 1 million views?
I saw this guy open for Whitney back in May. Had no idea who he was. Believe the hype. He's lights-out.
Most underrated artist in this time.
Liked this before watching. You just know Cameron is gonna deliver at this point
David Ainsworth I've heard a promo of his new album and its fucking amazing tbqhf.
Best use of a Bm-G-D-A chord progression that I've heard in awhile...
when i first heard this song i was disappointed that it was so basic? with all the hype and everything. now its my favourite song and i bump it 24/7, this man is a genius
Heard this song on "Easy"-Netflix
then inmediately fell in love with it
It's been a long year waiting for this song :)
OMG same here
OMG ME TOO !!!
My thoughts exactly. Could only find a live version at the time
Hi, do you remember which episode that has this song?
@@VyNguyen-uw9pf Season 1 episode 5, I think. The one with the comic artist
God this album is so fucking catchy
Alex' music makes me feel like an unheard soundtrack of my own private idaho
Finally this song came out! I was waiting for it so much, I love it.
Thank you Alex C, this is a Master Piece!
Greetings!
Come to México!
Irving Hesh yes please come to Mexico!
Australia's number 1 entertainer...
Gonna have to put this one on repeat. Hot damn!
He sounds like all my favorite artists together
Also jemime and alex are the coolest couple of ever
It's been a long time since I've been blown away on the first listen of a song. Bravo Alex!
The sax just takes it to another level.
Almost Bowie like.
i love how bad he dances
Saw him supporting White Lies in Sheffield and was blown away. He is just so god damn cool. Seeing him in Glasgow in December. Can't wait!!!
My name before I got married was literally Candy May 🤣
whoop whoop rock n roll baby
It's actually fucking criminal that this only has a million views
One of Australia's rising music stars. Alex rocks!
I only heard these for the first time last night, they were supporting The Killers in Liverpool. Really enjoyed their songs!! Loving 'Candy May' and 'Politics of Love'. They sounded great live as well.
Genius. Pure genius.
I am obsessed with this song.
I love this song!!!!!!!
Made a 14 hour road trip playlist and you damn well know this is the first song on it
Most underrated artist around
Sitting here, drinking a beer and vibibg to this and i have work in 5 hours, but song still chills me out
Probably this year's best album.
the music + the video .... wont even try to explain what i feel rn
Yeah !!! New album !
This is a wonderful song
Thank you jesus
Candy May, I think I'm dying
Yeah, 'cause I'm frail and I'm tired
And I constantly complain about the pain I'm in
But Candy May, she knows me better, yes, she knows my ways
She has seen me naked, she knows I'm packing heat
She has a way of saying "baby, come to me" complete
She's my sweet sweet Candy May
Got me stuck and I want to stay
But I never wanted to look shocked
Down the barrel of a broken heart
So I live with a deep regret
Of all I do on the internet
And I'm filled with a dirty white guilt
She's a brown on her doily frills
She loves me still
Sweetest eyes, so dark and shining
They see a shadow in their vision
Then it fades and then it dies, sweetest eyes
But Candy May, don't think I'm lying
I got a flavor in my mouth, it never truly goes away
That's Candy May
So when you see me and Candy May
And we're walking down the street at a mean pace
And she is crying out "You f'n lonely man
"You worthless piece of shit
You all wouldn't understand"
'Cause Candy May, I know she loves me in her own true way
You call it as you see it, you think you know the score
But you just never had a girl like Candy May before
She's my sweet sweet Candy May
Got me stuck and I want to stay
But I never wanted to look shocked
Down the barrel of a broken heart
So I live with a deep regret
Of all I do on the internet
And I'm filled with a dirty white guilt
She's a brown on her doily frills
She's my sweet sweet Candy May
Got me stuck and I want to stay
But I never wanted to look shocked
Down the barrel of a broken heart
So I live with a deep regret
Of all I do on the internet
And I'm filled with a dirty white guilt
She's a brown on her doll with frills
She's my sweet sweet Candy May
Got me stuck and I want to stay
But I never wanted to look shocked
Down the barrel of a broken heart
So I live with a deep regret
Of all I do on the internet
And I'm filled with a dirty white guilt
She's a brown on her doily frills
She loves me still
ZERO dislikes. That's the way it should be! Great track, interesting video.
Watch out you so-called "artists"! This is Alex Cameron, and he's one of the very best. #CandyMay #ForcedWitness
No Roy Molloy, no dice.
Roy boy Molloy blew his horn at 3:35
I love his little dancey dance 🕺
So does he!!!!!
Every bloody video clip.......
I don't mind, personally. 😁
This guy fucks!
One word - timeless
absolutely GREAT!!!!!
Watched it twice, going in for a third, love all of this!
When I first heard this. I thought I had this real nostalgic feel like some random song I'd see in the end credits of a 90s movie when I was a young pre-teen. Then saw that other video from this album that is the end credits, and had that same nostalgic feel..lol.
Alex Cameron makes me uncomfortable and I think I'm into it
I start to love him!
Another sick tune

Brandon Flowers (swoon!) was so right. This guy is fabulous! So glad I stalk BF pages to find Cameron.
