- Bloc Party performing 'Song for clay' and 'Banquet' with a really nice transition between the two, at Reading Festival 2008.
I am trying to be heroic in an age of modernity
I am trying to be heroic as all around me history sinks
So I enjoy and I devour flesh and wine and luxury
But in my heart I am lukewarm
Nothing ever really touches me
At Les Trois Garcons, we meet at precisely nine o' clock
I order the foie gras and I eat it with complete distain
Bubbles rise in champagne flutes
But when we kiss I feel nothing
Feasting on sleeping pills and Marlboro Reds
Self-pity won't save you
Oh how our parents they suffered for nothing
Live the dream like the Eighties never happened
People are afraid to merge on the freeway
Disappear here
We stroll past the queue, into the magazine launch party
I'm handed a pill and I swallow with complete distain
Kick drum pounds, off-beat hi-hats
Remember to look bored
We suck each other's faces and make sure we are noticed
The cocaine won't save you
Because East London is a vampire, it sucks the joy right out of me
How we longed for corruption in these golden years
Oh how our parents
Disappear here

A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I can give you life, I can take it away
A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I'm working it out
Why'd you feel so underrated?
Why'd you feel so negated?
Turning away from the light
Becoming adult
Turning into my soul
I wanted to bite not destroy
To feel her underneath
Turning into the light
She don't think straight
She's got such a dirty mind and it never ever stops
And you don't taste like her and you never ever will
And we don't read the papers, we don't read the news
Heaven's never enough, we will never be fooled
Turning away from the light
Becoming adult
Turning into my soul
I wanted to bite not destroy
To feel her underneath
Turning into the light
And if you feel a little left behind
I will see you on the other side
'Cause I'm on fire
I'm on fire when you come
I'm on fire so stub me out

the most underrated band of the decade
russell absoloutley fucking nails this. so much energy in song for clay, it is intense
The intro to Song For Clay is so insane and powerful. How on earth did these guys get the indie rock curse of ppl only caring about the first album
Gordon Moakes was on temporary leave to take care of his newborn child. Daniel Lindegren, aka Tommy Sparks, filled in here.
Whose still watching this in 2018 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏼🙌🏼
I'm locked in over the coronavirus mate in 2020 april still great watching this.
@@crickcrot It's now May and we still in lockdown and probably wull for the next months too lol but Bloc Party keeps me alive.
2 of the best BP songs together-perfect
4.50min ... the guy has fun :)
great band, great performance
i was there. love reading
Russel is just a legend
4:49 loved the moves !
immense aint the word for bloc party live they are outa of this world!!!
the whole of this set, Russell probably played the best guitar he ever has. he's unreal.
Kele actually has a special pedal that kicks him in the nads repeatedly for the High part in Clay
Best 8 minutes of my life
I am trying to be heroic
In an age of modernity

Live the dream like the 80's never happened
People are afraid to merge on the freeway

I am handed a pill and I swallow it with complete disdain
Kick drum pounds off beat high hats remember to look bored
We suck each other's faces and make sure we are noticed

How we long for corruption in these golden years.

Ha-ha

No-no-no she don't think straight

'Cause you know I'm on fire so stomp me out
'Cause I'm on fire

Yes, Kele is fucking amazing on vocals and lead!
Great Bassist!!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
thankssssssssssssssssssssssss, please th other songs pleaseeeeeeeeeeee lol
electrifying!!! was at the front for that immense!!!!! only word to describe it IMMENSE!!!! BP rockkkkk
i honestly watch this twice a day minimum
sick transition between songs
EVERYONE is singing along to Banquet. That is powerful shit.
love the transition
BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE!
pure class
FACT!
Ooh that transition is sick. The singers voice is a bit shaky but these are two wonderfully dark works of theirs.
4:50...that dudes little dance lmao...
no words for the fantasic transition!
they are all just amazin!
seeing them again in bloctober XD
i like the how dances the bass player at 04:50
OMG! Russels right eye!
correcto!
just saw them live tuesday and they did this same transition.. was awesome, glad i found this vid
5:03 you know he is thinking..."yeah you know this one" haha
no man. like eating glass is thier best
hitting the high pitches are tough. these guys hit the pitches very well
@TheGenteingiro he wasnt sick, he was on a paternity leave. his wife had a baby around that time.
thats i still remember
Yeah, I love that :D
they did this at manchester apollo, was fucking sweet!!!
also love Matt's ' LIVE THE FUCKING DREAM'
This is all I have. The rest of the set is somewhere in BBC archives, but that's a bit difficult for me to get my fingers on:P
@Tropicanam One word, WOODSTOCK!.
im seeing them on sunday :D
absolutely brilliant!!!!!!
indeed it seems everyone has good taste here
no no no, "but Obama won't save you!"
psh, in my wildest dreams.
NOBAMA 08!!
@Rulemaker85 He's returning to Bloc Party, Kele and Russel are working on new songs. They'll be back together in September.
C'mon Kele...Bloc Party is your natural habitat...come back!!
i was there. my flag is the furthest one to the left of the screen on many an occasion
Yep, there missing two songs from the set. 'So here we are' and 'She's hearing voices' :/ They weren't broadcastet by the BBC, so no luck finding them for me.
a colombian flag jeje beautiful 5:36
this was fucking incredible at Glastonbury
thank you! like eatin glass is fuckin beast!
i dont know this band. but their a check in my book
Wow thank you so much for putting this up Ninjarh!!!
MOMENT: 3:47 - 3:50 COOL!
MOMENT: 4:35 - 4:48 great change
MOMENT: 4:49 - 4:52 lol
MOMENT: 8:00 - 8:09 the "two more years" intro
@sugarybiscuits It understands.
This bassist is also wonderful though Russell is a great guitarist.
kele is a nintendo's fan !! lol XD
i think it might be that Gordy's daughter was born around this time, so i expect he was taking some time off. that's my guess.
Double eargazm!
4:50 dance dance!
yeah i reckon after 4th album they could do it. Though i don't think Intimacy was big enough success to get them to headline slot this year
Why can't America produce musical groups as good as the UK? You don't see many crowds of this size gathering in America.
when bloc plays live their shit is never loud enough for me...ive seen them three times and compared to their albums...live, they just dont have that massive sound...i think its their set up er some shit...because they are a wicked band i wish they would just be louder live...
my flag is the one with 'army' on it, should usually be to the far left of ur screen
lol cats, bass player dancing 4:50
@LeonMB
As much as I wanna hate the guy, he's enjoying his moment in the spotlight to be fair!
ninjarh is #1 - # 10 of your vids the whole concert, or are there any songs missing?
anyway, great vids, bloc party is great!
4:49 Tommy Sparks is the boss
Theyre not from London. If anything theyre from essex or reading. cos thats where most of them met.
Nah, it's one of their friends stepping in for Gordon while he's with his wife and baby.
manic street prechers should of headlined the main stage
the bassist is out... now i found that gordon is much too cool
@TheGenteingiro he was sick, he couldn't play!
who is the bass player?
@Track vs Road it's not him.
@angelolrandy thats not russell lissack right??
who's the new bassist/????
they changed bass player??
who's that Bass guitarist XD he's not Gordon
whos the random bassist?
his wife was havin a baby
lol everyone seems like that hate that stand-in basses, but i bit you would wish you were him. being to play along side BLOC PARTY, come on who would pass that up! excluding non-bloc party fans.
whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!????? lol anyway thanks
Having a baby
Tommy Sparks or something
is it possible to not like bloc party?
i actually like the bass player, he's no gordan but a good enough replacement.
go tommy spparks :D:D (she's got me daancinggg)
download audacity and then you can record it while it plays.
awuevoo la bandera de méxico jaja
where the hell is gordon?!
(Y)
Where the fuck was Gordon ! ??
russell needs to be turned up significantly
agree, I like the way he plays, but he can't sing as high as Gordan Moakes, that's the only letdown, he did a great job however
impossible
wtf and gordon?
nope. its impossible :D
