I became aware of this song after I was removed from a cruise ship and put in a COVID quarantine hotel in Palermo, Sicily for 15 days in December/January of '21/'22. There were no English channels on the TV, but there was one channel that played music videos, so I just kept it on all day to have some music in the background. This song came on often, which was great. Discovering White Lies was one of the bright spots in my days in COVID jail. The lyrics were weirdly relatable to my situation, and it's one of my favorite songs that is forever tied to a moment in my life.
Some day in 2009 or 2010 I randomly listened to "to lose my life..." ...now 12 years later, there were very few days I didn't listened at least one song of this amazing band. This band ist still so underrated !
@@Labyrinthine_Complexities I sincerely hope. America really is not great at "importing" other artists nor their music (even radio now that radio is just copycat trash). Canada gets British music before America does but America gets the most AND the best tour dates/locations always, so I kind of hate that as a Canadian. Lots of White Lies fans across the country here but they really have never done much beyond the top 4 biggest venues, and they focus on the east coast too. New songs like this should be shared and posted as much as possible to get buzz. This song is so fucking good and I know for a fact it means that album is going to be even better.
There's a video of a Leet (rodent) from Anarchy Online (MMO game) rolling around like a roly-poly set to 'To lose my life' - Then I found 'Holy Ghost' and never looked back. I blame my mom's taste in 80's synth and my dad's taste in melancholic schlagery bombast.
This band continues to get creative! I've never followed a band for so long and yet still appreciate there music till this day. So I'm very excited for this song I know for a fact I'm gonna love it 🥰 (Heard it now) This is incredible!!! Wow! Those guitars 🎸 🔥 Such a banger of a song! I'm so happy for these guys!! - Hashim Haz Aziz
This is one of the songs that you cannot decide ever what instrument to play... would love to play the bass, the drums , the guitar riffs, or even sing. Very enjoyable music construction. Congrats
Right now, there's a film school student somewhere cutting this song with clips from The Martian, for "educational purposes." In a week, he will post it on RUclips, trying to pass it off as an official music video. 🙄😂
Uno de los últimos conciertos a los que fui antes de que iniciará la pandemia fue de White Lies. Durante todo este tiempo los he estado escuchando, espero volver a escucharlos en vivo. Vuelvan a México pronto!!!
As I try not to fall apart because I said Farewell to the Fairground and followed the Streetlights to Tokyo, I said Come On, I will Be your man so stop Getting Even and Believe It, be a First time caller and let's watch my Big TV. Is ,my love enough , lets be more than Friends but not Srangers, with the Power and the Glory, you can Take it out on me, dont Hold back your love, when its Morning in LA, we will see the Finish Line, but there is always Unfinished Business because Summer didnt change a thing so Give a Sign and Dont fall , you Son of a Gun, take a Swing , hit me in the Right Place , so tell me with your Mother Tongue, Where do I go , I can Change, I can Turn the Bells but I wont Lose my life for the Price of Love, I have Nothing to Give but Peace and Quiet. So sing that Black Song as you look for a Place to Hide, and Heaven Wait as you look for your Goldmine. I Dont want to Go to Mars either, that would equal Death. You cant land on a light in the sky anyways........
Спасибо за рок и брутальность 🤘🖤😎 И хочется ещё слышать больше голоса Гарри, как в "Getting even" 🙏🏻 Считаю его голос самым красивым мужским голосом, хочется насладиться звучанием 🖤
I'm definitely ok with my listening journey with White Lies beginning because of Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit back in 2010. Bigger Than Us was on the track list. 11 years on, and they still sound awesome!
It looks like hyena from Editors and any music from the First album from She Wants Revenge had a baby, this is so amazing, so fantastic and so white lies that i'm crying listen to this nonstop
Non ho mai capito il perché non godano di buona stampa, come per esempio accade con gli Editors,questo singolo conferma la grandezza di questa band! Grande sound sempre molto riconoscibile,strepitoso Mc Veigh!
I’m 24 years old and I’ve been listening to artists, singers, band and in general a lot of music for my whole life and you guys are the only ones that since I’ve found you I enjoyed literally everything you made. This has never happened with this frequency for me with anybody else in the music panorama. You guys are special, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your outstanding work! Y’all amazing! 🤍
Same here! I’m also 24 years old and it all started with Bigger than Us for me in 2011. I was present in cologne at their concert for the first time. What a new definition of music taste I just experienced!!!!!!!!!! They improve every single time! For 10 years straight without a doubt the best artists I’ve ever met. So glad I met them in Person!
Bloody too many kids listening to em!!! (that is a joke). I'm 57 and love this and all their old stuff too. I wasn't that keen on Try Not To Fall Apart, but I'm really looking forward to the new album and the Liverpool gig
This is so f*cking beautiful!!! 😍🤯😭😱 I don't know if this is synth rock or some kind of 80's vibes but I love it so much!!! Can't wait to listen the full new album
I must be the only person on the planet who thinks this but this song and video is sending out STRONG vibes of 'Resurrection' by Fear Factory... The shots of Harry's face, the synths, the structure of the song... Its incredible :D
Lyrics : They made me put all my things in a silver case Took my blood and my name and asked my age Told me all my friends were on their way And I'm just late in the game But oh, God I don't want to go to Mars What kind of brainwashed idiot does? It's all a lab rat life in jars They branded the dream of ages I don't want to go to Mars Be with me here and return to dust We can borrow your parents' car And take it to all our places They made this terrible thing look like a train There's something sweet in the air what I can't say Would I like a drink to calm the brain? Oh please stay in the chair But oh, God I don't want to go to Mars What kind of brainwashed idiot does? It's all a lab rat life in jars They branded the dream of ages I don't want to go to Mars Be with me here and return to dust We can borrow your parents' car And take it to all our places (I don't want to go to Mars) (I don't want to go to Mars) (I don't want to go to Mars) (I don't want to...) It's been another four years and not one birthday cake You sometimes sleep all day and never shake You could hide the abyss with a friend you hate Oh I miss the news and change But oh, God I don't want to go to Mars What kind of brainwashed idiot does? It's all a lab rat life in jars They branded the dream of ages I don't want to go to Mars Be with me here and return to dust We can borrow your parents' car And take it to all our places (I don't want to go to Mars) (I don't want to go to Mars) (I don't want to go to Mars) (I don't want to go to Mars)
The main guitar theme on the songs, these three consecutive wails, is an obvious rip-off of Budgie's song ,,Parents", especially the intro of that song. Caught me off guard the first time I heard it and I can never unhear it ;)
This band continues to be awesome every single album. That's a rarity nowadays.
best band I discovered since FooFighters or Rise against!
To be fair its the same album every release. But if it aint broke
it's not a rarity.
@@yomo1690 how? All their albums so far have been completely different
@@bradleyallen-holland2004 don't be silly
"Be with me here and return to dust.." ❤
Nobody really want to go to Mars, I love the lyrics.
Sounds like "Summer didn't change a thing" and "I don't want to feel it all" had a child. A very awesome one! 🤘
Sort of reminds me of "Bigger Than Us"
Was thinking the same . But that’s one of my favourite songs so all for it
Hmm, it actually sounds more to me like their older songs.
Definitely sounds like it would fit on Friends
The ending has a very " I want my MTV" vibe
I feel like they are going back to their roots with this song...

This song slaps.
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa brill
This band still has the magic.
Sztosiwo! Kto z Polski?
How don't fall in love with that handsome face ?
Five dollar music video… only very good artists can pull this of 👏👏👏
I dont want to go to Mars, but dudes bass fills are outa this world
Omg it's here

PERFECT BAND
reminds me of classic Failure - excellent song
Vintage White Lies. Yessssssssss.
This band continues to get creative! I've never followed a band for so long and yet still appreciate there music till this day.
So I'm very excited for this song
I know for a fact I'm gonna love it 🥰

Schwarzenegger: Get your ass to Mars.
Harry: I don’t want to go to Mars.
Schwarzenegger: ☹️
Ritual vibe!! I love it from Indonesia
MAJOR TOM: i don't want to go to mars
yep, that goes to my playlist for a ride
Harry’s got the best voice of the century, hasn’t he? Kissed by God ILYSM

One of the best live bands I've seen 👍

Sublimi unici e immensi in un periodo dove tutti fanno ... Non ho parole
gran banda white lies lima peru
I just discovered you guys tonight and I’ve been listening to you for three hours straight can’t stop
White lies is one of the best things that happened in my life. 🙏🏻
Yeah! This music is my style!
Why do they have only 100 thousands of subscriptions? Just stop the planet... It's impossible
Such a fucking killer band!
Definitely swims in the “Bigger Than Us” waters… and I’m totally ok with that!
😍😍😍
Seriously, they're veeeery much underrated...
I will follow this Band worldwide.
Alerted to this band several years ago by my brother, I think I owe him Big Time!
ВАУ! любовь с первых гитарных риффов! ♥️
AMAZING!!!! It’s full rock and it’s sound is delicious like a fantasy!
These guys don't miss
White lies and tears for fears two top songs this week
A fantastic band. "I don't wanna go to Mars, what sort brainwashed idiot does?" is magnificent.
Uno de los últimos conciertos a los que fui antes de que iniciará la pandemia fue de White Lies. Durante todo este tiempo los he estado escuchando, espero volver a escucharlos en vivo. Vuelvan a México pronto!!!
En donde fue ? Salón José Cuervo ?
Estuvieron increíbles 😌
@@MrGerort en el Df estuvieron en el plaza y también estuvieron en varios festivales CC Gdl y El Pulso en Qro.
@@yedidguerrero850 ya que vengan a Mexico, urge !! 👍🏼
@@MrGerort en El Plaza Condesa, fue su último concierto en México en marzo de 2019.
I understood since the first seconds that this song is awesome

Спасибо за рок и брутальность 🤘🖤😎
И хочется ещё слышать больше голоса Гарри, как в "Getting even" 🙏🏻 Считаю его голос самым красивым мужским голосом, хочется насладиться звучанием 🖤
Истина!
так странно для меня видеть, что у кого-то WL ассоциируются с брутальностью...
This band is just fantastic for my mental health they make everything ok❤❤
They have helped me as well...Brilliant song Great band....Every album is brilliant.
I agree seen them support Tears for Fears ....Take a listen to The Hurting album by Tears for Fears does wonders for your mental health
AWESOME
I'm definitely ok with my listening journey with White Lies beginning because of Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit back in 2010. Bigger Than Us was on the track list. 11 years on, and they still sound awesome!
Great song it grew on me
Bellissima
a great track 💥
I absolutely love the guitars! This slightly heavier style works so well. I'm more than excited for the album
Can't stop listening
Esta es, con mucha diferencia, mi banda favorita.
La mía también...saludos de un fan de Panamá!!
Superlativo :-) LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
White Lies' music never fails to shake my soul. Love it ! 💚
Wow 🥰
What a completely underrated banger, this should be a hit...
Brutal... gracias-) Spain! LOVE...thanks-)
Like good wine, they're only getting better!
It looks like hyena from Editors and any music from the First album from She Wants Revenge had a baby, this is so amazing, so fantastic and so white lies that i'm crying listen to this nonstop
I love it! I've been a White Lies fan for so many years already, and I'm still blown away by every release!
Never ending nostalgia since 2008 🖤
Qualcosa di impossibile da esprimere !!! Una delle pochissime Band sublimi !!! Fantastici unici meravigliosi !!!
awesome!
Non ho mai capito il perché non godano di buona stampa, come per esempio accade con gli Editors,questo singolo conferma la grandezza di questa band! Grande sound sempre molto riconoscibile,strepitoso Mc Veigh!
Sublime.
Amazing song!!!! 🔥 🔥🔥🔥
Everything going out in the background reminds me a bit of the climax to Goldmine. Love this one!
elon musk's been real quiet since this dropped
He lives on elon mons lodge on olympus mons....plus its more likely spitting Image that shut him up

You keep me waiting. My favorite band for 10+ years. I can't wait to hear this song and to finally see you guys live.
Yes the boys can't get enough of tunes
This is so f*cking beautiful!!! 😍🤯😭😱 I don't know if this is synth rock or some kind of 80's vibes but I love it so much!!! Can't wait to listen the full new album
Synthwave, more like Darkwave baby
@@Labyrinthine_Complexities Yes is darkwave '80 style 😉
@@Labyrinthine_Complexities You're right, it sounds more like that

Excellent! My DISLIKE is inverted. I have always loved your band. Jim Morrison is Shining down on you boys.
Essa banda está merecendo estourar mundialmente!!!🇧🇷😍
Another AMAZING SONG. Greetings from El Salvador ❤️🔥
Lyrics :
They made me put all my things in a silver case
Took my blood and my name and asked my age
Told me all my friends were on their way
And I'm just late in the game
But oh, God
I don't want to go to Mars
What kind of brainwashed idiot does?
It's all a lab rat life in jars
They branded the dream of ages
I don't want to go to Mars
Be with me here and return to dust
We can borrow your parents' car
And take it to all our places
They made this terrible thing look like a train
There's something sweet in the air what I can't say
Would I like a drink to calm the brain?
Oh please stay in the chair
But oh, God
I don't want to go to Mars
What kind of brainwashed idiot does?
It's all a lab rat life in jars
They branded the dream of ages
I don't want to go to Mars
Be with me here and return to dust
We can borrow your parents' car
And take it to all our places
(I don't want to go to Mars)
(I don't want to go to Mars)
(I don't want to go to Mars)
(I don't want to...)
It's been another four years and not one birthday cake
You sometimes sleep all day and never shake
You could hide the abyss with a friend you hate
Oh I miss the news and change
But oh, God
I don't want to go to Mars
What kind of brainwashed idiot does?
It's all a lab rat life in jars
They branded the dream of ages
I don't want to go to Mars
Be with me here and return to dust
We can borrow your parents' car
And take it to all our places
(I don't want to go to Mars)
(I don't want to go to Mars)
(I don't want to go to Mars)
(I don't want to go to Mars)
Cant wait !
