LYRICS:
I could wander ‘round like a sightseer
‘til you say to me “child, there’s an answer here”
And if all I ever get is a reticent nod
I’d be falling madly in love
So now you see see see my selfish needs
Maybe I’ll have to feel this on my own
You can get what you want:
Experiences, I’m told
Maybe I’ll have to feel this on my own
You can get what you want:
Another kind of love
Idly shifting piles of the looseleaf
And you say to me “child, what about the last scene”
Talking to myself, I remember every breath
C’mon, kill me, please
Maybe I’ll have to feel this on my own
You can get what you want:
Experience, and a way home
Maybe I’ll have to feel this on my own
You can get what you want:
Another kind of love
Did I call too late tonight?
All I do is work anymore
Bet I could fix up my face between 8th and 9th
And I could be what you want
Before I start lying to myself
What do I care what some tarot says
But when the car pulls ‘round I feel it in my eyes
I feel it
And they fall

1,000,000,000 times better than anything on the radio
Someone still uses radio?
I’ve already commented on this I know, but I’m in a bad state of depression right now. I played this with lyrics to express it to my wife, and the progression of the song, the lyrics and everything that comes with helped me convey what I was talking about and actually cry.
Pathetic I know, but NOL helped me reconnect with a side of me that was dormant for a long time.
This band have helped me more than they’ll ever know. The depth of their songwriting/musicianship is so valued.
Love you all
I feel you my man. NOL has this special ability to unlock feelings that were stashed away or ones that you never knew you had. Sightseer has hit me recently and it's doing the same for me. It's one of those delayed obsessions, I've become completely entranced by the progression in the track.
I wish you all the strength in dealing with your depression. Keep using music to help you find your voice. And I hope you find confidence in that voice - no one's honest experiences are pathetic :)
Thanks for the kind words, I really appreciate you taking the time to wish well to a complete stranger. I’m better now, this song just struck a real chord at the time and winter always knocks me for six. Onwards and upwards 😊 take care of yourself brother
This song belongs in a soundtrack.
I'm 57 and I discovered this band just recently. It's so great. Sometimes I feel like being back in my youth days when I listen to their music. To me they are even better that all those bands from the 80's.
I’m with ya. I’m gonna be 65 and something about this wonderful band makes me feel 22 again.
I'm 65 and listening.
Decent ain't they
I'm 53 kinda OMD ish I can't quite put my finger on it , but certainly better that 99% of the dross about these days, its always exciting and a pleasure to discover new talents no matter how old you get 😊
62 here. I agree. I feel like I stumbled into a worm hole taking me back to the early 80's
55 here and I got to see this band last night , I was taken back to 1983 middle school
Did I call too late tonight?
All I do is work any more
Bet I could fix up my face between 8th and 9th
And I could be what you want
Damn that’s good. 🔥
These guys seems to know how to make music that's timeless.
I am 54. The 80's are one of the best eras in music. This band was suggested via RUclips music. I am hooked. Most every song resonates with my life, taking me back to much younger and freer times. Thank you, Nation, for taking me back. What a musically/lyrically talented band. Keep pushing! The traction they are getting is undeniable.
Moving, emotional, enthralling. My favorite band made the best album of the year.
So so SO underrated ! It's an honor and a privilege to have come to learn of this remarkable band 🪄
All of their songs catch my ear and I immediately feel them in my body. Later on I go and read the lyrics and the song opens up even further for me. Exquisite song writing.
most underrated band out there at the moment... I mean.. less than 10k views for this great tune? hope to see you soon in germany!
My favorite track from Strange Disciple.
I’m completely obsessed with this song on repeat 😔
Checked them out when i read they were opening for LCD. These guys are damned good. Love this 80's vibe. ( 69 yr. old music lover, love Miles, Beatles, Cure, Bowie, Marvin Gaye, pretty much everything ).
*Wow. Amazing. I guess maybe we have to feel this on our own.*
hallo Leute
kann leider nicht Englisch. War aber extra in Hamburg um sie Live sehen. Mega!!!!!!!!! Unvergesslich und das mit 60 !!!!!
This song is a new obsession, playing in my head when I’m in work, and otherwise. Not gonna lie, it’s a grower, much like all NOL songs for me, but at the end I’m a pure fanboy. Keep all of this up if you can. I can’t wait to see you live, I hope it will be soon
Also this video really compliments the song. The retro vibe is carried throughout. If it didn’t contain modern cars/buildings, it could pass as 40 years old. My god I can’t get enough of this band
I love the music of this band...the music, lyrics, atmosphere.!! All excelent!!! State of the nation, you keep the good work and best of luck for your band and work!
Synthpop at it's finest!
beautiful song again, loving it. What a blessing to have this band and their prolific output with such a consistent quality😍
I don't obsess over lyrics anymore but damn i wish id had these lyrics 6 months ago🥴whoops
I think I could live in this song forever...
"Maybe I'll have to feel this on my own"
Y’all transport me to somewhere dreamy.
Most underrated band right now
One of the top tracks from the album, amazing song, and atmosphere!!
Well this is going on repeat for the week
woot! 🥳
Adore this band and every album that they bring out ❤❤❤went to watch them in Manchester this month and what a treat it was, these guys are pure class❤❤❤❤
Brilliant gig brilliant set brilliant venue
My favorite of the (lovely) album. 3:14 always hits ❤ thanks for the great music.
Beautiful, simple and immediately loved songs from an outstanding band
I love the touch of the 80s in every song! Nice work...keep going.
Evocative, Fascinating, a trip back in time where synthesizers and New Wave met for the first time.
My new fave song.
Amazing video, great music, love your work!! Waiting for you in México!! 🎶🖤
This song mixes with a 'Such a Shame' and sounds great!!! ;)
One of my favorite song in years
Every single song they make is epic. Unreal.
Maybe I'll have to feel this on my own 🤷🏽♂
Vengan a México... solos sin algun festival de por medio.
Los amo❤
Another excellent song, brimming with atmosphere and a degree of melancholic longing. Good video too.🥰💚🌱
This video! Exquisite visual poetry. Such a beautiful manifestation and synesthetic harmonization with the music and lyrics.
❤❤❤❤❤❤

My band, forever. 🖤
OMD vibes for me. Noice
Amazing as always ❤️❤️🇧🇷🇧🇷
I feel it.
🤍🤍🤍
Incredible song, so glad it got a video as well!
Los quiero mucho Nation of language, ya falta poco para poder verlos ❤❤🇲🇽🥺
Mister vocalist , when you put in the "talk" mode and play with the graves , remind me the masterpiece you cover on Sirius radio , super 10 from Spain
I love the part around 2:20
I could hear You'll Start a War from Pale Fountains sound here
Becoming a bigger fan of NoL every time I hear them.
The best band in the wold! We love you❤ greetings from Germany Hamburg❤
Been playing this song literally non stop for the past couple weeks. The last 2 minutes hits so deep. I love this band! Btw, I was #900 to like this video. I feel like I should win a prize or something. Let's hang out Nation of Language. Keep them good feeling coming.
So good!! Low key fave song on the new record
The contemplative nature of the lyrics, sprinkled with some hope at the end, makes this song special.
que buen tema! saludos de argentina!.... the best 02:20 la melodia y el video hacen que sea perfecto
Please never don't stop! You are great!
My friends would describe this as Jake Music, and they'd be right cause I love it
Good song, lyrics and video!
Mega , so eine tolle Stimme, sein ganzes Potential gezeigt. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Holy Cow!
All we want to know is, when are you touring Australia 😉, great tune, as usual👏.

Noice. Really, very noice. As always with them.
