[@RebelScum312]

can hardly believe alvvays has never been booked on a talk show until now & it's about time, they've been huge from the beginning! genius band with beautiful songs & the dazzling voice of molly rankin!

[@adonistea]

They've turned down offers before to preserve their mental health and low key spotlight life.

[@willisfaggaboum1149]

Talk shows take anyone

[@offbrandcereals]

idk they did play fishcenter so this may not be their late-night debut if u really think about it

[@RebelScum312]

@@offbrandcereals you're right, found the fishcenter video after this, really like the alternate universe version of not my baby

[@RandomNonsense1985]

They did CBS Sunday Morning back in 2018.

[@nickmokrzewski]

A Canadian shoegaze band on national TV. I hope the world remembers this and falls in love with this god tier genre

[@NickyWaters]

i was abour to comment about Canadian shoegaze, but you beat me to it !

[@Hillelfraenkel]

“Belinda says heaven is a place on earth, well so is hell” has to be the best lyric I’ve heard in a while

[@archenspawn4855]

Its a homage to Belinda Carlisle song Heaven Is A Place On Earth

[@renatoangeli9988]

Don’t forget they’ve just played “Rush Hour” by Jane Wiedlin at a radio session recently, so the Go-Go’s connection is undeniable

[@TerribleUsernameAmirite]

Never forget the day when Alvvays brought glide guitar onto American late night TV.

[@payne0410]

I had the same thought!

[@uggles_mcfuggles]

Same thought!!!!

[@lostlanguag.es_]

possibly the first time for american late night tv but not the first time for late night tv.... kzbin.info/www/bejne/anzTfXR-rqaGoNE&ab_channel=OliverB

[@ryanbrough299]

Anyone else get emotional watching this? I truly love this band and everything they put out and all the success that comes their way.

[@jesuscabreravillarreal7789]

I agree 💯

[@rogerallen4320]

The key change on the last stanza always gets me.

[@eddykidd]

I cried again yes

[@maurogonzalez4098]

Been following them since Antisocialites dropped. I got to see them for the first time like ~2 months back when they came to DC. I was almost in tears seeing Adult Diversion preformed live. So glad they're finally getting the praise they've deserve.

[@jaredigital]

literal tears

[@rowlette]

This is one of those songs that doesn't feel short even though it's less than 3 minutes long. So much happening musically and lyrically. Wonderful ride

[@eric690]

The whole album is like that. A lot of modern short songs feel incomplete, so it’s a breath of fresh air that a band can write short songs that don’t feel like they end abruptly

[@GoldJerryGold]

@@eric690 You’re right but I also wish they were all 20 MINUTES LONGGGG

[@AdamSpt118]

From the very beginning, Molly Rankin never missed. Alvvays is the best indie band to exist ! Long live Molly Rankin!

[@Yourbankaccount]

check out Unknown Mortal Orchestra bro... Or My Bloody Valentine

[@jpsouza]

Definitely the most consistent indie act of the 2010s (and 2020s, so far).

You would probably enjoy dr dog too 😃

Alvvays finally made it to late night TV!

[@stevenluna3756]

That key change is magical

[@franciscosebastianfloresze3781]

Shogaze and glide guitar in mainstream media. Oh how i love Alvvays! Best band i have hear lately all their songs really hits me with pleasure and emotion!

[@J1VETURKY]

Is it just me or they seem to never age?? So proud of the whole band! Blue Rev has been on repeat!

they look much older than they did in 2013 lol

Omg this makes me so proud to be a geeky Canadian. These guys are easily one of our GREATEST musical exports. Thank you Alvvays xo

[@d.leighannbatemon3192]

My husband says all the best music comes from cold countries because they get all winter long to focus on it 😂

[@OctoRock_1982]

Thank YOU and your country for making them famous enough that this geeky Texan got to see them perform in my state a few years ago and experience them too!

Wow they look great! So happy to see them getting more recognition! Love Alvvays 💙

[@Shapingus]

Have absolutely loved this band for years. Thanks for having them on, Jimmy!

[@Chris15Hubbard]

Love Alvvays so much. I'm so happy Blue Rev is getting so much positive attention. It was well worth the wait from Antisocialites to have such a wonderful collection of songs.

[@themackbrothers]

So great to see Alvvays finally getting some much deserved praise. One of the best bands out right now.

[@migtasti]

Very nice to see the get the recognition and acknowledgment that’s long overdue💙

[@bminne90]

And now Alvvays got nominated for the Grammy's 2024! So proud!

[@micahcraven6576]

Every song of theirs is just like this wave of beauty all of a sudden flushing your senses. It takes you elsewhere into this beautiful lil world they share. Love y'all

I had this episode of Jimmy on in the background and I was instantly fourteen years old again as soon as this song started. I love that 90s alternative rock sound! :)

[@DavidJohnson-tu9ws]

Great to see this band finally getting the attention they so very much deserve. First saw them in London back in 2014 and was so impressed i’ve seen them a couple of times since. So good live.

[@STS777]

I had a chance to see them live once about 5 years ago, and still to this day, it's one of the best shows ever been to.

I've seen them in São Paulo some weeks ago. They were simply amazing! One of the best bands ever for me! Love them so much.

´please make me stop. tell me a joke or something.

Great performance ! It's a bit less noisy than usually, but that might be the price to be on that tv show! Blue Rev is a masterpiece, they deserve this.

I wish they just drowned the whole song in distortion and reverb like on the record, but the string section makes up for it i guess

[@jameyanderson4028]

The show definitely cut back the volume on Alec's guitar. Too bad. Check out their performance at KEXP for a great mix of this song.

I would rather the first 2 albums where they did not drown the vocals in a wall of noise. So this version is the best version.
