The roses are heavy
With rain and for ages
Veil after veil
And the pictures are whispering
The ones we belong to
Caught in forever
Startled and proud all laughing together
And babe if you'd met him
I picture you'd sit
Blasting my wisdom
With two-barrelled wit
Then he'd steal you for dancing
And you'd lend him your arms
And I'd stooge for your laughing
And you'd twirl in the chaos of charm
The roses are heavy
With rain and for ages
Veil after veil
And the pictures arе whispering
He'd steal you for dancing
And you'd lеnd him your arms
And I'd stooge for your laughing
And you'd twirl in a chaos of charm
I wish so many people who are in my life now - especially my kids - had the chance to meet my grandad, my hero. This encapsulates that beautifully. Not the first time I've shed a tear to an Elbow song. x
Yes amazing how music holds a link and memories of the past.
It is palpable, powerful stuff. Lippy kids gets me every time....Guy's talent is out of this world
@@deketk “it’s palpable, powerful stuff” …nailed it David. No more need be said.
If you loved him which I am sure you did and he you then they will definitely know him because he is a part of you due to the feeling of love . Feel it and know it. It is true . Best wishes
If he was half the man that my grandad was you have my upmost sympathy. Mine passed 30 years ago and I still miss him terribly
As beautiful as Guy’s voice and the lyrics are the combination and melodic synchronisation of the two woodwind instruments through the song is musical genius.
Agreed. The layers of bass clarinet carry the song effortlessly
Elbow - the absolute pinnacle of grown ups music
I'm 14 and they've been one of my favourite bands for seven years. Just shows how they can attract audiences of any age...
@@bagwipes I'm only 20 and I've been a fan since 17! They are definitely an elegant band and turn off a lot of crazy teenagers I'd suspect. But Elbow are just amazing!
I am 900. Been waiting a long time for a band like them.
Ive listened to elbow seince 4 years old
Heard that
all those hesitant and seemingly random, meandering notes that eventually find their way home......... magic, pure magic
Elbow and Wilco, for me are just THE finest songsmiths. Bands that set a mood and tell a story so well.
What a great tune, simply sublime. Elbow get better and better, fantastic. Guy's voice is one of those rare voices that could sing you the telephone book and it would still be awesome.
I think you are right. I know them since 2004 or so and they get better and better all the time.
Evrytime I listen to this song it brings tears to my eyes. Outstanding peice of art
I have the exact same thing with 'lippy kids'. This band just touches my soul differently than any other. (In a good way)
Fridays is for drinking to the Seldom Seen Kid
I'm gonna have a drink to this song, preferably on monday
I could just get lost in Guy Garvey’s voice
I often do
Watched them in Manchester on Wednesday night. As ever the band were phenomenal! Cheers Elbow!!! 😊
Boooo ;)
This is a Sunday-morning-coffee-in-quaint- kitchen-sunlight-with-the-love-of-your-life song.
I couldn’t have said it better
Amazing, to all those we wish we could dance with again.
Chills, absolute chills. Those first few piano notes put such a lump in my throat. So bittersweet, so beautiful. Thank you for the wonder you bring to the world, Elbow.
I'll field this one, peeps.
It's bloody beautiful, isn't it? Enough to break your heart all over again, on every listen. What a very pretty song.
The simplicity of - What a very pretty song - is a perfect comment.
So true. With every listen my heart breaks yet I can’t get enough. How fitting they recorded this in an empty theater as well. Simply amazing.
His face at 3.50, says it all ... floors me completely. A song of stunning beauty.
Well spotted.
Ah this is just beautiful and reminds me of last year with the Elbow Rooms where Fridays gained a new meaning and something to look fwd to. Gorgeous track and definitely inspires me to finish several projects to start another novel. Not often music moves one that much so kindest thanks
And the sublime arrangement of instruments. How the guitar and piano start at the same time. Almost colliding but then merging. And the reed section blowing this veil of sound carrying the song. Beautiful.
Listen through headphones to appreciate the true beauty of this song.
So true... and high-end ones please, with a good soundstage. This entire album is brilliantly recorded.
So it’s settled, just hand them the Mercury Prize again. This is stunning work. Among your finest ever songs.
Wow. I can’t get over the warmth that radiates from Elbow’s music. Brilliant track
9 brilliant albums in a row...no other band ever done this
Song of the year for me, hands down. A sublime piece of music. Timeless, sad, beautiful, I could listen to this for days.
My God. Shivers. My song of the year. ♥️
This song makes me think of my dad.... he never met my wife, or any of my children, but I know they would have loved him and I know he would have adored them.... and it breaks my heart every time, but I'm glad that it does...
There is so much lyrical beauty to what they do.
My wife-to-be will be walking down the aisle to this, 2 months today. Can’t wait, it’s going to the best day ever…😍
Each time I hear this beautiful creation I cry since losing my father. How you have moved the bleakness of the woodwinds into warmth with the piano and bass. This is such human beauty from all of you. Thank you.
I am late to the Elbowsphere. A British acquaintance of mine introduced me to their music last year and what a gift it has been. The comfort of their sound bringing light to a dark time of pandemic and isolation. This is another beauty. Thank you.
You have a lot of joyful catching up to do!
@@frankiegeorge2353 I've been working at it.
I'm just blown away by this...
The lyrics, his voice, the emotion, oh my word...
Beautiful song, I mean this is a real piece of art. And the voice of Guy is amazing too.
I love Elbow, there I said it and have since their first album came out. Guy Garvey has the perfect voice and the lyrics they write together just come together so well. Not many bands can reduce me to tears but these guys do.
i'm very happy to find a kind soul at the bottom of a cruel story
The warmth of the memories is enhanced by the embers of the woodwinds. And spare, poetic lyrics. Class. 🙏
Wow! Just Wow!! I am new to Elbow and Guy.... beautiful poetry, music and his voice..... Blows me away
If you like this, I suggest you to listen to the album of the same name (The Seldom Seen Kid) especially songs "Friend of Ours" and "Starling". "Starling" can be unsettling at first but it's quite a beautiful track. Also, can't find enough solace in a song like Scattered Black and Whites!
Beautiful- Sir you are a poet who captures the essence of everyone who loves or has been loved heart. Thank you x
Yes a poet who sings
I’m still astounded that they have broken wide open in America. They’re so sublime.
Agreed! I was lucky enough to see them in the states before all the unpleasantness. They were great live.
Bloody hell listen to this track i am drifting away.
At the risk of repeating myself….. beautiful song, wondrous lyrics, a song that will mean so much to so many and with Guy’s voice, it’s all just perfect.
Just lovely really lovely xxx
Sun rises. Dark clouds part. and look
New Elbow music.
in these times - this makes me feel that all will be ok ----thanks guys
Brilliant Elbow, brilliant and well ... simply breathtaking. If tracks like these didn't exist there'd be nothing to look forward to. Thank you
God, that's just beautiful.
This is why we love you Elbow, your words back to you from my heart.
"What am I without you!"
Beauuuuutiful. Cheers everyone.
oh my God, this is just a beautiful piece of music and the great voice of Guy.
The most beautiful homage to an invisible goat ever 🧐
Amazing song.
Elbow have the key to my heart. They get me every time, I swear.
Absolutely brilliant, elbow have the most pure sound, and they appreciate all musical instruments.....this song is simply majestic.
I find it incredible that the quality of their music never wains. Album after album are full of divine music. they have set the bar so high than all I can say is in my opinion Elbow are the greatest band on the planet right now
What a beauty this one is
This made me so happy!! Addicted to Elbow’s beautiful sound and Guy’s voice 🤍🤍🤍
This is just the most beautiful song. The woodwind harmonies>dissonance>resolution chords are so unusual! Then you add in the words and it is just spine-tingling awesome. Can't wait to hear the whole album!
Yes so many layers and such complexity that works amazingly well together.
Time after time elbow release a masterpiece.
Just one huge word "AMAZING"
Their best single in years!!! Welcome back, boys.
So raw so beautiful

Like a fine 🍷 Wine. Elbow just gets Amazingly More Beautiful with Age! Everybody needs Elbow In There Life! Thanks Guy.✌n ❤
Superb!
Seldom seen kid !!
I've been lucky enough to see them in concert twice... I too get lost in his beautiful voice, and the lyrics are mesmerising and intelligent.. there just so tight as a band.
Beautiful sublime...and then some thank u Elbow ❤x
Such a beautiful song, they are as special as they ever were, I love Elbow.
Fantastic. This is precisely why Elbow is my favorite working band today. Well done everyone, jolly good show. Blessings, peace and love, from your loyal fan, Joe.
that voice though!!!!!!!!!! love Guy Garvey
tonight I can't help but click to replay, again and again, ...
Absolutely beautiful, such talent and lyrics that are sheer poetry! Timeless stuff!
This song reminds me my father-in-law so much. RIP. Great stuff.
that‘s simply brilliant. ❤️
Elbow just seem to write one amazing song after another...cant stop playing this
Music to soothe your soul.
To me, this is their most successful musical achievement to date. It says so much, yet with so few words. I feel emotional every time I hear it. Perhaps this new album, marks a new chapter in Elbows ongoing quest to create music that moves people. I have a suspicion this will last the ages.
Beautiful. If you've never seen Elbow perform live then I can highly recommend that you do. They are always excellent and Guy just has a magic touch with the audience.
It's my birthday today....this has just made it for me.
Happy birthday 🎂 from Italy ❤️
@@yasminestarr6402 thank you 😊
@@74lisaevans hope you’re doing well wherever you live! ❤️
I got moved while listening to it. So sweet and gentle ❤️
Beautiful, stunning
In a long list of great Manchester bands, elbow bow to no one.
Beautiful x
Pure Classic , Guy and the band are simply elegant
Just simply beautiful!
Superb band.
The choice for the instruments is, well, next to the vocals, what should I say? Sublime? I can't explain how this song hits me. Lost for words, actually.
I hear you. I’ve just bought the album and it’s just bliss. Goosebumps on many occasions, and no filler to be found. Just magnificent.
Beautiful and reflective... Brings a lump to my throat. 👏👏
Great song, Guy Garvey is a genius great songwriter
I always recommend your music. When i heared you guys for first time i felt that i was in another world. You make me feel that everything is gonna be ok
Electric picnic in ireland. I went to a pop up gig. Turned out to be elbow playing a small room. I went giddy with my friends. after 15 I was holding back tears/trying to hide them from my friends. His voice just makes bits of me.
what a great thing to wake up to
I am genuinely weeping. I needed this today. This is a good thing.
You guys have been my favorite band for the better part of a decade and I have never gotten sick of a single one of your songs! I think your incredible and get excited to tell people about you every chance I get!
stunning
