No song has given me as much pleasure as this has in years - we have waited a long time for this level of talent - much needed and much appreciated- it takes me back to the early 90’s when I was a teenager - and let’s face it the music was exceptional - long live the Fontaine’s
How can a song make you miss time and places you've never been? Absolute beautiful piece of music and strong contender for song of the decade in my book.
Undeniable pop delivered as only Fontaines D.C. can do. Excellent tune and performance! Also, bonus points for that mullet 😂....reminds me of something you would see a member of the Cars sporting back in the day.
Are they really this great? Yes. Yes they are! (3:59 pretty cool, TLDP doing exactly what they said they’d be doing after their set. And I think I saw at least Carlos checking out TLDP during MLOM. Two of my favourite bands! ✌️&🖤)
I read that it sounded good live but the video the BBC posted of the performance sounded horrible. They even took it down and reuploaded it with a new mix.
@@MW-dd8vk The day after someone suggested that I saw them screaming at each other, it's so funny people thought they'd open for them. Was never ever gonna happen based on what I knew of their egos on both sides DCF a little less, perhaps. People who thought that were real delusional lol
@@jens2049 it’s not. Romance, whilst the singles are very good, is a transitional album for the band. They tried to go for a more poppier and anthemic sound with the new album (In the Modern World sounds like it could be a Coldplay song) and ultimately lost something in the process. Some of the songs don’t sound fully realised or complete. Skinty Fia is a much more realised and cohesive record in comparison.
@@sanfordcurtis8242 In your opinion, factually it's number one on the "album of the year" chart, and on metacritic top 3 of any album released in 2024.
@@sanfordcurtis8242interesting take, I agree with a lot of what you’re saying. Most seem to be lavishing this new album with praise simply because ‘hey, it’s the Fontaines’ but you can tell that the gap between writing and recording simply wasn’t long enough to fully garnish/develop the the tracks to the same standard as Skinty Fia. It all felt a bit rushed, after Skinty Fia the whole world was CRAVING more and they just had to give it to them. You’re definitely right in saying it lacks the same cohesion as the previous 3. It’s a great album, sure, but it lacks some authenticity for me. James Ford has his fingerprints all over the sound of this album and I hope that they work with another producer in future. I think this album has put me more into the mindset of ‘next album is make or break’ and I can tell many of their die-hard fans feel pushed away by the poppier sound. Unpopular opinion but ‘A Hero’s Death’ would stand on equal footing with this record for me, many would argue that was also a transitional album for the band. Many consider it their ‘worst’ album (it’s a tough competition, all of them are pretty solid) but it was definitely a Fontaines album, this record not so much
@patrickbracken3363 a 16 year old might think the Fontaines where the best band of all time. I suggest listen to more music, Fontaine aren't even in the top 50

Song of the year from the album of the year x
Certainly is .. can't stop playing it.
1000% agree
This is awful. Singer off his face. No crowd interaction the whole time
@@shaebryant1916unless you were in the crowd why are you arsed
You've obviously never seen them live @@shaebryant1916

Bad crowd tho. 😮💨
This song. The whole album. Great
So glad they did a cover of twinkle. Amazing song.what an album heartworm was..
Deego and Carlos background vocals are magical! Absolutely brilliant!
So dreamy, so nostalgic, so melancholic…I love it
Has the same power as Pumpkins '1979' in evoking nostalgia.
i feel something like that too
superb comment, couldn't put my finger on it but you've nailed it.
@@RubensCGomes good call that one mate
Spot on my friend, spot on
Nailed it
best album of the year
Agreed 👍🏻
❤
...is Heavy Jelly 😉
Imaginal Disk better
i think i burst out crying when i was here it was incredible
This song always makes me almost cry especially the video. It's been a while since a song has moved me like this.
i almost cried hearing it live too
Music is back
How can a song make you miss time and places you've never been? Absolute beautiful piece of music and strong contender for song of the decade in my book.
I love that 3 of them are singing on this one!
Love seeing the boys get in on the vocals
Gives me the 90's vibes of this song. Cheers guys!!!❤❤❤❤
Catchy tune almost always in mind lately ... cheers!
Album of the year one of the best ROMANCE
What a song this is
My FAVOURITE of the new album the perfect closing track❤
Amazing performance. Timeless music.
Album of the year!!!!
Superb.Proud Dubliner
Ye guys inspire us to follow in the footsteps. Absolute classic tune this!
Keep it up! Keep this kind of music alive

Love Grien’s outfit, the embroidered trousers are you kidding me 🧑🏻🎤💚💚💚

This song make my days better
Best thing to happen to music for a while

BRAVO for their stance, their clarity, their unambiguousness when it comes to PALESTINE.
Real, true, proud sons of ÉIRE!!!
They don't care for Palestine
What a band! So excited to see them for the 3rd time live this fall!
Absolutely brilliant tune!
今1番かっこいいバンド
Best album of 2024 out of every genre of music!
Una de las mejores canciones del año, sino del mundo.
La verdad!
Sin duda!!
Infinitely better than the Glastonbury mix thank god
Vocals seem too low, no?
still quite bad
I was at Glastonbury, best sounding live show I’ve ever been to
I watched them live at Glastonbury they were awesome.
I read that it sounded good live but the video the BBC posted of the performance sounded horrible. They even took it down and reuploaded it with a new mix.
Bet they'll headline next year
Favourite song ❤
Song of the year, song of the summer that never was....
New uplifting from the heart original sounds, they are shit hot, Thankyou D C ❤❤❤
Absolutely Brilliant 💙
Amazing
Hope for music today what a fantastic band
As a 59 year old this gives me the same experience as joy division did back in the day
Who needs Oasis back when we have Fontaines D.C.
Don’t have to spend 6k on a ticket either
Guaranteed they’ll open for some of those shows except the date they play Finsbury Park
@@MW-dd8vkdefinitely not after FDC said what they said 😂

Me ! As soon as possible. This band with his fluo green singer sucks.
Best song this year! Romance is gonna win Album of the year!
This band is great
This guy is a seriously good drummer
Nope, just because he hits the cymbals loudly doesn't make him good. Generic playing, sloppy timing. NEXT
@@EmyrHumphreys-e7r😂😂😂 yeah, Reni, you tell 'em 😂😂
Tom Coll is one talented drummer, regardless what you think of the band.
Tom coll is class !
errmmm….NO HE ISN‘T !!
@@descendingfortheermm…no he isn‘t. Sloppy playstyle and no punch at all. I could maybe teach you how to that in a day …..
La perfezione❤
Im for dublin and these are the top band in the word.amazing song amazing album ❤
Gerrrup outta that
This is very strong...wow
Proud to be irish more importantly a Dub brilliant band
🇵🇸 on the mic, on the world!
Terror on the mic, on the world!

Best band nowadays!!!
Romance definitely album of the year!
modern classic
Great song
Te lleva a los lugares más hermosos en los que uno ha estado
this song.
Imagino eu em um Festival Grande desses 😂❤
Skinty Fia is still their best album. This song makes me think of summer 2004, though
It is absolutly not the best now Romance has come out

[Intro: Carlos O'Connell & Grian Chatten]
(Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa)
(Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa) All the pieces last forever
[Verse 1: Grian Chatten]
Did you know
I could claim the dreamer from the dream?
Make you feel
Everything you've never even seen
Yeah, it's been
A long, a long, a long, a long, a long-long
You've been my
Favourite for a long time
[Verse 2: Grian Chatten]
Stitch and fall
The faces rearranged
You will see
Beauty give the way to something strange
Yeah, it's been
A long, a long, a long, a long, a long-long
You've been my
Favourite for a long time
[Chorus: Grian Chatten]
Well, look who's just the newest clown
35 hours coming down
How the sun shines on new pavement
And you don't even feel it
It's a cry far from bed radios
And days spent playing football indoors
When they painted town with Thatcher
They never even wanted to know ya
[Verse 3: Grian Chatten]
Feel alone?
I can split the sunshine to the day
Yeah and
Stick your heart to everything you say
Yeah
To be gone, be gone, be gone, be gone, be gone
You've been my favourite for a long time
You've been my favourite for a long time
[Interlude: Carlos O'Connell & Grian Chatten]
Favourite for a long time

Favourite for a long time
(Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa) All the pieces last forever

(Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa) And all the pieces
Dara-dara-dara-dara-dara
(Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa) And all the pieces
Dara-da, dara-da
[Verse 4: Grian Chatten]
Did you know
Cities on return are often strange?
Yeah, and now
Every time you blink, you feel it change
And it's been
A long, a long, a long, a long, long-long
You've been my
Favourite for a while
[Bridge: Grian Chatten]
Ah, makes sense when you understand
The misery made me another marked man
And I'm always looking over my shoulder
And each new day, I get another year older
Shoulder bounce through the frame of a door
Tuned into shape like a stone on the shore
But if there was lightning in me
You'd know who it was for
[Outro: Grian Chatten & Carlos O'Connell]
Did you know
I could claim the dreamer from the dream?

This was the only act where I felt like it was all about the music, not the people playing it. By far the best act of the weekend.
