this is one of my rain song, and not that it's a rainy day song, but a song for walking under the rain.

[@bdmc6583]

I know exactly what you mean. For me, it was my Amazon Music playing past my playlist so it was just putting suggestions on for me. I had fallen asleep, but this woke me up for some reason. I immediately looked to see who it was and what it was titled Now i have their entire discography

[@TheKique25]

The backing vocals are insane on this one. Would have never thought she could sing them live with such certainty.

[@emmasheils4281]

Polly's been touring with them for all of At Their Very Best! Carly only joined them onstage a few times.😊

She always does. She makes this song from like 100% perfect to 200% perfect.

it came out around the time my grandad started getting very ill with dementia. I always weirdly think of it as a dialogue between my grandparents at the time and it is agonising. they are no longer with us but they are together.

A haunting voice indeed

[@chhlotte]

I know a place It's somewhere I go when I need to remember your face We get married in our heads Something to do while we try to recall how we met Do you think I have forgotten? Do you think I have forgotten? Do you think I have forgotten About you? You and I (don't let go) were alive (don't let go) With nothing to do, I could lay and just look in your eyes Wait (don't let go) and pretend (don't let go) Hold on and hope that we'll find our way back in the end Do you think I have forgotten? Do you think I have forgotten? Do you think I have forgotten About you? Do you think I have forgotten? Do you think I have forgotten? Do you think I have forgotten About you? There was something 'bout you that now I can't remember It's the same damn thing that made my heart surrender And I miss you on a train, I miss you in the morning I never know what to think about I think about you (so don't let go) About you (so don't let go) Do you think I have forgotten About you? (Don't let go) About you About you Do you think I have forgotten About you? (Don't let go)

She really have a good voice. I watched the 1975 show in Frankfurt, while the band was busy on production, she did an intermission song playing with her guitar and she nailed it. Great voice.

[@npats550]

The female back up vocal is beautiful. Their voices sound really great together. Oh that 🎷 (sax), is just the perfect touch! Why have I not listened to these guys before?

[@DavidKuceraKD]

Yeah, Polly Money might as well join of the band as a full member. She had been really great touring with the 1975. Saw them live in Prague, her version of "Jesus Christ 2005 God Bless America" was amazing.

I remember when this album came out last year, I was on holiday in L.A when the album dropped. It was my first ever time in America and this song came on and I remember the magical feeling of hearing this song for the very first time.. driving around L.A in the sun with this song blasting in my ears ❤️ I’m so so glad this song has become a big hit! I had the pleasure of hearing it live in person during their U.K tour in January and it was an otherworldly experience.

[@TheRealist-u7f]

LOVE THE 1975…Their music is so eclectic and fresh. Actually, they’re the only band whose album I can listen to in its entirety and repeat multiple times a day. Every song is stellar. They are so relevant in today’s world. Most artists today have one or two songs on an album and the rest of the songs irritate me, it’s like listening to a 40-minute song. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for us in the future. So blessed to have found this amazing band.
