Music video by Ed Harcourt performing Strange Beauty. Director - Steve Gullick Producer - Deathless Recordings Editor - Steve Gullick Composer - Ed Harcourt vevo.ly/9iEjgb
Ed Harcourt is terribly underrated. The algorithm keeps suggesting songs from him, on my feed and I have never found myself appreciating an artist more as I have him. The man writes about the dualities of love and wonder, the bitter and sweet - a wounded idealist at heart. A poet.
So happy to finally see this video and hear the song again, I have been thinking about it a lot since you played it in Gothenburg this summer. Thank you Ed ❤
Love it!!! Right away I was like....where have I heard this before??? Cowboy Junkies - Sweet Jane riff!!! Amazing to see how music can form its own. I have not released my music because some may say "that sounds like something else". This is the perfect example of putting all music out there. Inspiring and an incredible song!!!
Maaaan im so glad that Silent Hill Downpour showed me this master of music, I never forget that first song i heard from him, it was Here be monsters again. Its sad that there is not much fans here in Czechia. I’m fan of his music for 2 years
Finalmente RUclips recomendou algo bom. Um dos meus poucos artistas preferido. Seu som é atemporal! É remédio para minha mente! Saudações aqui do Brasil!
Lyrics, in case anyone wanted them! Strange beauty, I think that I've died It storms through me Guess I'm barely alive So what good am I in this darkness An incoherent mess Strange beauty, won't leave my soul to rest So haunted You're the ghost in my heart So wounded You make this killing an art What should I do with this sadness Its leaving me with less There's no question Strange beauty is the curse that is blessed Hits you like that Shanghai bullet train Burns you like that Hiroshima rain Never know when it will strike again Its devastating everlasting unrelenting strange beauty Out on society's edge See the distant lights slowly disappear Far from the city of the dead and the great divide Lets get out of here, lets get out of here Strange beauty Unholy and brave Surge through me Electrified from the grave What should I do with this happiness Its cracking open my chest Strange beauty Won't leave my poor soul to rest Butterflies are bursting into flames Dopamine is thundering through my brain Now I'm dancing just like Cassius Clay Its devastating, everlasting, unrelenting strange beauty Strange beauty Oh, strange beauty Strange beauty
Does anyone know what happened to the Beautiful Lies album? I can’t find it on Ed’s channel anymore…. I know I could probably find it, but it’s not the same as knowing it’s on Ed’s channel

What a beautiful way to phrase it, as beautiful as the work itself!
@@setplay88 Thank-you internet stranger. I'm glad we share the same sentiment! You have great taste, in my opinion.
He's always been a top songwriter-and this is a great song. I remember first hearing from him with 'Here Be Monsters'. Wonderful artist.
Genius
the new album is fantastic
Love el magnifico! Found ed via humanist!
Voice is sounding better than ever Ed. Great to hear new stuff from you.
Alright... The way this song and video have made me absolutely explode with joy. I think that's the intended reaction. The king is back!!!!
A joyful start to my day, beautifully strange and as resonating as ever.
So happy to finally see this video and hear the song again, I have been thinking about it a lot since you played it in Gothenburg this summer. Thank you Ed ❤
Oh my god it's so beautiful
How amazing to hear the brilliant Ed back with a new song and album to come!! So good as ever, can’t wait to see live🙏🏻🙏🏻

Hopefully one day Ed Harcourt will get the rediscovery treatment a la Nick Drake because he is one of the GOATS.
Love it!!!

Lyrics, in case anyone wanted them!
Strange beauty,
I think that I've died
It storms through me
Guess I'm barely alive
So what good am I in this darkness
An incoherent mess
Strange beauty,
won't leave my soul to rest
So haunted
You're the ghost in my heart
So wounded
You make this killing an art
What should I do with this sadness
Its leaving me with less
There's no question
Strange beauty is the curse that is blessed
Hits you like that Shanghai bullet train
Burns you like that Hiroshima rain
Never know when it will strike again
Its devastating everlasting unrelenting strange beauty
Out on society's edge
See the distant lights slowly disappear
Far from the city of the dead and the great divide
Lets get out of here, lets get out of here
Strange beauty
Unholy and brave
Surge through me
Electrified from the grave
What should I do with this happiness
Its cracking open my chest
Strange beauty
Won't leave my poor soul to rest
Butterflies are bursting into flames
Dopamine is thundering through my brain
Now I'm dancing just like Cassius Clay
Its devastating, everlasting, unrelenting strange beauty
Strange beauty
Oh, strange beauty
Strange beauty
Brilliant Song 🖤✨
This is the song to define my summer ahead!
You’re the ghost in my heart..
Great Stuff from Ed! As usual! ❤
Wonderful track !
Beautiful song and video! ✨
This sounds like it could have come straight out of “From Every Sphere”
I suppose if i had to compare it to any of Ed's previous work, yeah it does sound like something on From Every Sphere.
Totally
Fine song by Ed H.
Love it!
Sounds good 🧐
love it !
reminding me of being 19 again, you bringing the swoon back.
Love it
❤❤❤
Tendrías que estar al lado de los más grandes estilo coolplay etc etc todo un descubrimiento
Just heard #EdHarcourt - " #StrangeBeauty " on #bbcradio6music on Lauren Laverne 🍳 BreakFast ⚡22.11.23 #show 📻 #canwait for new album in 2024 🤘📆 🤘
Does anyone know what happened to the Beautiful Lies album? I can’t find it on Ed’s channel anymore….
I know I could probably find it, but it’s not the same as knowing it’s on Ed’s channel
Idk, that's quite strange. And Russian Roulette is gone too. Its happened before and came back, so I hope this is temporary as well.
OMG! 🎉SOUNDS LIKE JONNY DEPP! 🤣🥰
ok ed .. come to me
Jesus died for our sins,if we turn from sin we'll be saved,Jesus loves us all
Eh? How is that related to this song?
The music is fab, the boy is top class but the moustache needs to go!😊
