// LYRICS //
Call the cops and tell them what I want
My battery’s a hundred percent
It all made sense
A bomb for a body
A hammer for a head
My battery’s a hundred percent
It all made sense
All your stories are about your death
The lemmings on the way to the cliff
The brain-dead boys
Calling you a hooligan, a Border Reiver git
The boxer with a box of old shit
The big white noise
It’s all about the money now
You put the hard drive in the microwave
You antelope
You are a sack of wine
Call the cops and tell them what I want
My battery’s a hundred percent
It all made sense
Just blame it on the empire
Blame it on the empire
Blame it on the empire
Blame it on the empire
I don’t know
It’s all about the Benjamins
It's all about the wilderness for me
Tomorrow is a wonderful idea
It's the end of the contender
The end of the contender
It's the end of the contender
The end of the contender
Feeding time
Animatronic eyes
Are watching with delight
A churning mind
Gimme that rabid smile, those
Creddahornis eyes
Call the cops and tell them what I want
My battery’s a hundred percent
It all made sense
A bomb for a body
A hammer for a head
My battery’s a hundred percent
It all made sense
The end of the contender
It's the end of the contender
The end of the contender
The end of the contender

Thanks for everything, Everything Everything :-D! "The End of the Contender" is actually conquering my heart. What a sublimely composed, catchy Pop-Song.
Its a genuine GREAT album. And this song is just so bloody good.
If Mountainhead isn't at least nominated for the Mercury prize, they aren't listening. Can't see another UK act releasing an album as good as this is in 2024. There's not one 'filler' track on the whole LP. Blows my mind that EE can do something so strong and fresh sounding 7 albums in. Best band on the planet right now, nobody else can even come close. How they aren't absolutely massive I don't know. Should be filling arenas just on the strength of Mountainhead alone.
Been listening to the album several times a day, really really great stuff
LOVE YOU
every music video for mountainhead is just all the guys doing manual labour while Jonathan Higgs sings and dances
Underrated comment 🤣
as it should be
Yeh I preferred the ones made with blender.
@@Zonaverdi_ if I could just sing and dance while my friends dragged TVs around and mined ore, of course I would
My favourite band of all time and always will be but these videos have been so naff ffs😂
All proceeds from this single will go towards paying Jonathan's fixed penalty notice for littering.
Literally firs thought was did dude even pick up his fake money after the video was over
dad dancing at a concert vibes. i'm digging it
Who else needed to be called an antelope and a sack of wine today.
WE'RE MAKING IT OFF THE MOUNTAIN WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Are we not the mountain?
The Bleach Boys did it again ⛰🥚
The blonde boys iykyk
😂 definitely did though
😂
The man with all the money is doing little to no work while the others slave away with no reward. Well played, well played
its all about the benjamins
The money also keeps flying away until there’s nothing left.
@@aboxintheblack9530and they stop following when the money runs out
IT ALL MADE SENSE 🏔🔥
I swear, no one makes songs about mental health and life in the current era quite like EE. It's almost impossible to describe how many of their songs resonate on a visceral level. Allowing all the space for loss, grief, heartbreak, stress about no sense of direction in life, societal pressures, depression, and impulse control issues to exist, while also being uplifting and hopeful. We're not just lonely brains trapped in our own consciousness, limited by how we can communicate outwardly what's going on inside. We're actually all in the same boat and other people also experience most of those big feelings we struggle with internally. I'm just grateful to be along for the ride with these beautiful people and their creative output. THANK YOU!
it's why i consider them the most underrated band out there rn. been hooked since my kz, ur bf
Big!
Thanks man.
Hearing my name in a EE song must be the greatest of feelings.
All 3 singles from this album are class
Ace!
@@samengsberg875MINT
This is comedic gold. What blackmail does Jon have on the boys to force them to be in this video?
He once said he had the pictures of Jeremy modelling for some hairdresser salon...
This might be it.
@@YelenaSkunky That doesn't sound like a bad thing!
I love the sound this album is going for, a mix between Raw Data Feel and A Fever Dream.
Greatest band alive!!! Hope you come back to Italy!!!
Every day a new EE single drops is a day where I feel glad to be alive.
Ice on his wrist 🔥
Personal highlights:
- Jeremy's too-short trousers
- Mike being the only one to walk to the beat of the music, and his occasional bang of the drum
- Alex's general demeanour of annoyance (understandable as he's carrying the heaviest thing)
- Jon's little bob and nod after the word "shit" (00:33) (honourable mention for the tongue poke at 02:19)
I want to add .... Mike pushing the blanket because it's getting between his drum. 2:25 - 2:32
may i also nominate 3:05 for where john suddenly breaks into a running pace after being able to keep it for the entirety of the video but hes still gotta run in ~style~ you know
@@absolandninetales23that was another contender (!)
@@user-om1rq3uc3za welcome addition to the list.
It's good to get out of the house sometimes.
That main synth riff during the chorus is somethin else
Very Depeche Mode.
Unlike the other Mountainhead singles, this one took a few listens to really grab me! But now I'm obsessed!
I had to give it a couple weeks to settle in, then WHAM
likewise. it was the "end of the contender" vocal line that hooked me
What a time to be alive! ❤️
God I can’t wait for this album to drop, every song so far has just been a home run after home run
"The End of the Contender" debuted at #14 on the New Alt 40 Chart this week!
Why are these 4 male supermodels so good at making music?!
Hang on a sec, guys, I haven't finished having a blast on Cold Reactor yet.
I feel sorry for the people have been sleeping on EE! This is 🔥.
after 1 listen this song is already stuck in my head
They're all wearing blue and dragging yellow, in Cold Reactor and The Mad Stone they were wearing all yellow. They're also up against the water here, very far from the mountain top, so perhaps yellow represents proximity to the Mountainhead?
loving the synths on this one!!
I love the consistent style with the videos! The manual labor, the worker uniforms, the mountains, the pops of color; can’t wait for the next one!
Loving the Creddahornis eyes part!
I think this song might grow on me with time, my first impression so far is that I expected more, both in terms of the song and the video. The song does remind me of Spring/Sun/Winter/Dread with a twist, though, and I like that.
i can only imagine there's been at least a few takes where johnathan grooved out so hard while throwing benjamins that he accidentally runs into one of the boys
WE’RE MAKING IT OUT THE PIT WITH THIS ONE 🗣️🔥🔥🔥
Another great one by my favorite pop group. Love those synths. ❤
Still remember you being in Kyiv !
Higgs upgraded to some bare notes (+ dancing/avoiding too much manual labour) vibez
I'v seen videos where Jonathan expresses his disdain for Coldplay. I wonder if this is a dig at Coldplay's Yellow music video, with the yellow banner behind him, or if it's just an artistic visual choice, as the yellow banner is excellent contrast to the bleak beach, as well as their baby blue outfits. In any case, excellent banger, love from the US.
Edit: I just watched the other videos for this new album and I take it back lol. Seems like these color choices are an artistic choice for the message they have about living in reality and learning to abstain from the virtual.
Funny enough, the way I got introduced to EE was through Coldplay. As a big fan of CP I followed them on Facebook, where Chris Martin shared the Kemosabe video from the Arc album way back in 2013. Been in love ever since!
...a big fan of what?...
(jk)
When did he diss Coldplay?
@@SaynaTheSpiffy i saw a really old interview that took place before arc even came out as an album. I’d have to find it, but I remember it vividly. It made me sad because I love Coldplay, although my taste for them has weened over the years.
They never ever miss.
videographer: how cold can we set the white balance?
the band: yes
is it just me or does the blue get progressively bluer through the mv?
That's just what light is like in the UK
They've only gone and done another banger.
My favorite so far!
This song is occupying my head
Obsessed with you guys especially after seeing you live in Washington DC. Please come back to the US!!!
Fuck yeah! We got to see the birth of Cold Reactor!
@@SaynaTheSpiffy yes we did! I loved them before seeing them but once I saw them live and how insane good they are, I like them even more which I didn’t think was possible!!
THE ONLY THING WRONG WITH THIS SONG IS THAT ITS TOO SHORT!!!! IM IN LOVEEEE IM IN LOVEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
EE couldn't make a bad record if tbey tried. Love them!
I just need the whole album already!
These boys are masterminds. Revisiting the first song I heard from them so long ago. Greatest band that exists.
All of the songs from this album are huge bangers so far, I cannot wait for the full drop!!! I know that I'm gonna be listening just to that on repeat for months \o/
The videography and composition of song writing is ground breaking , so glad to see great bands making a comeback.
Must’ve been freezing. Cheers boys
Tomorrow is wonderful idea❤
Man alive made me a fan and I cannot appreciate how good a band you are, i haven't followed a band tht is soo consistently good as everything everything. Amazing ❤
I can imagine the people on that beach being like: There's money here!
The greatest music video since Yellow!!!
mocking Yellow? fine reference though, gotta think about that for a bit.
also, the song is a bop, as always!
Where was the reference to yellow?
@@KyunaCookies walking on the beach, singing a song while the sun is rising. pretty obvious, right? also, thats not the first time they mock coldplay like that. their spotify pfp is pretty similar to one coldplay were using a bit ago. i personally think of that as a joke, for i love both bands equally
I love you guys so much!! can't wait for the album!!!!
These guys rule. They ever make it to Melbourne, Australia, brunch is on me.
you got your wish!
Fantastic! Will be there. But will they join me for my home-cooked brunch?
poor Alex is dragging a TELEVISION
This song is very good
looking forward to see and hear you in Glasgow in March. Andrea from Germany
Absolutely lovin this one. Can’t wait for the new album. Cheers from Canada!
Just brilliant can’t wait to hear live 👌🙌🏻
it's about the sound richness you guys have-you fill the songs with sounds that scratch my brain just right
💛
60DEGREES ❤
A bop
Best single so far, can't wait for the album!!
Everything Everything can do no wrong! Another banger. I'll keep listening to you guys forever ❤
🎉🎉🎉
SPRING, SUN, WINTER, DREAD, I DO NOT NEED A CHARGERRRRR, NO WAYYYYY
no for real though!! this is the true sequel of that song and i'm living for it
Banger
Reminds me a little of Harry Enfield singing: "Wipe yer Wad...Wipe yer Wad on the counter.. Loads er money" ha ha ha!!"..But Seriously Phil Collins... Jonathan and the Everything boys have just smashed another blinder out of the park. Blinding good bit of new tuneage....😊
Banger after Banger!❤️
Obsessed with this track❤ The music is extremely sparkling and charged between the lyrics, with a hint of Interpol and other indie vibes.
I for one very much enjoyed this littering.
the turtles should be thankful
I am sure the video crew regretted the idea as they picked it all back up :D
I love the way this album is going, you guys literally cannot miss it seems!
🔥🔥
Finally a song with individuality and don’t all sound the same 👍🏻
This is my absolute favorite track of '24 so far. 😎
Thank you for making such wonderful music 🔥
So cool!!! The lyrics are amazing as always!
I love a walk on this beach!
Do you know which beach it is?
In a perfect world, they would have been the most popular band ever.
Job well done lads, becoming a staple in my daily listening
Come to Argentina sometime :D
It's time for a South American tour
@@alessandr7522X2🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
What a tune!!
I don’t understand why this band aren’t bigger.
Seems they’re channeling their inner Depeche Mode or A-Ha in this
Holy fucccccck I just discovered you guys and I'm obsessed.
These have GOT to be hymns.
2:05 wow those low notes hit hard on a subwoofer
They’ve done it again.
How did they get that many old tenners
Best part is at 3:58 when Jon walks into the back of Chris Martin
This song and this band is the bomb. #Absolutelyfantastasticamazingawesomegrenadewonderfulthrillinggoosebumpseverywhere.....whoah.
Thanks a lot.❤❤❤
🔥⛰💸 Amazing as always. Love the beat
their best era since Get to Heaven, I’m shook 😭🏔️
Looking forward to seeing them again soon in Bristol!
Kind of a banger
Call the cops I’m off my chops
Just fantastic!
Best band since DM ❤
