CHVRCHES - Under The Tide

[@redkween1637]

I wish Martin sang more songs or maybe just put a solo album out. I love his voice and he's so talented.

[@Jamesmarshallhayley]

He sings another one in the new album

[@edgara.4902]

Definitely 👍

[@NightCabbage]

CHVRCHES - High Enough To Carry You Over - AMAZING SONG :D

[@adammayo4377]

@@NightCabbage One of my fave songs by them. And his God's Plan on Love Is Dead is my favorite song on that album. His voice is ok, but the instrumentals and melodies have this looping/driving feel their other songs don't and I love that. I often put his songs on repeat. Hypnotic.

[@spindles71]

@@adammayo4377 Live this song is EPIC, crowd goes wild for it. We definitely need more of Martin's vocals on future tracks.

[@andlowrider]

Reading the comments makes me realize that most people are fans of Lauren only, not the whole band, this is a good song, I've seen them perform it live and Martin pulls it off quite well and puts a lot of energy to it.

[@jackryan1211]

so true. i couldn't agree more, i really like this song and the whole album. this is one of my fav tracks!

[@jordanlopez4360]

I always loved his voice it's amaizing, Lauren it's wonderful but these songs with Martin makes Chvrches perfect❤-a fan since 2011❤

[@johnmynn1207]

You are right...they are a band not a single artist.

[@80cp]

this song is amazing live!!

[@mr_king_n_watch1659]

Did Martin sing any other song?

[@cryotankexpansion]

I like Martin's vocals because they serve as some sort of a palate cleanser for the band. Not that Lauren actually needs it, but it feels nice to my ears this type of variety.

[@daniiimignogue9067]

+Amanda Steffen I totally agree. I was at their concert last week, and hearing this at some point was really nice and relaxing for the ears (though I love lauren's voice).

[@AlohaNLight2All]

+Amanda Steffen so true

[@RobynRadio]

+Amanda Steffen it's pretty cool that Lauren's not the only singer in the band. She's got great talent but it's awesome to see a band with both a male and female that can sing.

[@number5279]

+Robyn Langguth very true

[@TomGBuettner]

+Amanda Steffen Martin's songs are secretly my favourite (high enough to carry you over anyone?).

[@samuelhill5161]

Every time they let man sing on an album...it slaps. Under the Tide, Caught the Light, High Enough to Carry You Over...he doesn't miss.

[@megagene]

This is one of those songs that could be an hour long and I wouldn't even notice. I'd just be in a trance bobbing my head and tapping my foot to the beat. One of my top 5 Chvrches songs for sure.

[@mrboni5]

Chvrches is always on point with their instrumentals, one of my favorite styles

[@xtofa]

are you saying you can't hear his voice?

[@W3R3W00F]

Dude, Martin's vocals are fuckin' awesome. Listen, if you only expect singing voices that are immediately gratifying, then you need to widen your close-minded vocal tastes. Martin adds his own personality with his voice and holy shit does it work. Imo, his vocals don't take any "getting used to..." he's a good singer.

[@Becksnnc]

I'm a newbie to Churches. Only know leave a trace and decided to deep dive after years of being aware of them. First listen to this album and this was my favourite track. Confused by the comments saying it's hated lol. I love that I can hear the Scottish accent.

[@ilovemacs]

I doubt the band will ever read this comment. But this song has very significant meaning to me. My dad passed away today 9 years ago. This song I played on repeat and helped me through his passing from cancer. I just want to say Thank You. I listened to it again today on repeat and will do so for many years to come.

[@dentxhead]

Martin's songs are some of my favorites, dude has a gorgeous voice. all three of them are just so talented and work together so well, they don't get nearly as much attention or praise as they deserve 🥺

[@shawn829]

i find the imperfection of his voice well... perfect.

[@jakeh6913]

I love Lauren’s vocals as much as the next guy, but this is amazing! Martin should definitely sing more.

[@thebroskis6364]

Nice pfp, The Raven That Refused To Sing by SW.

[@MadCritter]

Love seeing more fellow SW fans on a chvrches video

[@KolydoscopeMusic]

I love this song despite all the hate it gets. I listen for Chvrches, not just Lauren and this song is absolutely amazing.

[@swag83111]

Thank you for saying that I needed to see at least one appreciative comment.

[@animationanimal6336]

exactly, i think the vocals are good. i thought i was the only one.

[@donahueweb]

KolydoscopeMusic This is one of my favorites off the album. It's so good.

[@Ch3ma18]

+KolydoscopeMusic it's definitely a great song, the vocals sound really good.

[@Aprilisbored]

+KolydoscopeMusic THIS. I know SO many people that hate the songs Martin sings. Yet, my favorite songs from each albums have been the ones that Martin sings. I love the band as a whole not just Lauren. They aren't another Paramore (meaning they only know the singer and don't give a rats ass about the rest of the band) Martin and Iain KILL it wiht their instrumentals and singing

[@sikthvash]

I really don't see why people hate Martin's voice - it's Scottish, unique and eloquent.

[@aMonkeyInaManSuit]

I guarantee over 90% of the negative comments are Chvrches fans who either just recently got into them or have never been to a live show... Most of the actual concert goers will tell you "Under The Tide" is one of the most loved songs live as the energy is amazing with the crowd! Martin goes crazy on stage dancing like a lunatic and everyone just goes ape-sh*t! I will be honest as well and say yhat before seeing a show I thought the song was underwhelming. After being amidst the crowd during the song it has given it a whole new life and feel to it for me. Trust me when I say certain songs change after seeing the band live. Definitely one of my favorites!

[@ThisOneComment]

Totally agree 100%! Saw them live and Martin killed it!

[@Mesjach]

I'm going ape-sh*t in my chair. Damn, I wish I could see them live :/ Especially since I actually prefer the less filtered live recordings... Edit: I've just realised your comment is 2 years old ^^

[@beverlymontgomery6235]

I love Martin's little leg dance! He's amazing and I love his accent here. All three of them are so different from each other. They're perfect together.

[@sampagett5735]

This was the song that made me like CHVRCHES

[@Ellieh6049]

I'm a fairly recent fan (last couple of years) managed to get to see them in Birmingham UK this march and it was amazing, I love this song and Martin's vocals are amazing and I agree, when I saw them live he gave it his all, especially when he jumped on the guitar! I'm hoping maybe for the next album we get to hear more of both Martin and Iain's vocals, as much as I love Lauren I love the band as a whole!

[@DarlingMissDarling]

This song, there's no erasure of his natural accent, this tempo... mannnn... The longing and desperation it unexpectedly stirs up. BRAVO MATES

[@Creinna]

So many negative comments. Not enough good ones. Chvrches is a band. It's not just Lauren. I think it's awesome that they put a music video out there that wasn't starring Lauren. Chvrches isn't like those other bands where only the front vocals should be known! All three members are important. Super cool video!! I'm glad Martin is the center of attention in this one.

[@tharpeaddy]

This song never gets old!!

[@Karliene]

Holy crap guys, i've only just started listening to you tonight. Every single song is intoxicating! :-)

[@texanperry]

I’m curious where are you at with the band 8 years later? I started listening in 2021 to How Not To Drown first, then the whole Screen Violence album and love it. I’m now going back through their catalog and love their music. I adore this band. They are so good!

[@Rikushix]

Lot of people saying that this isn't "true" or "good" CHVRCHES because it's not Lauren singing, or that it's not really passionate when performed live or something to that effect. I couldn't disagree more. I've seen them live twice (first at Sasquatch 2013, second in Vancouver September 2013) and at the Vancouver show I was the first one in the venue and watched the whole thing right against the stage. They performed Under The Tide (back then just called "Tide") for one of the first times live and it was face-meltingly good. The amount of passion and fervor they all put into performing this song was palpable. Total chills all around. I love Lauren but she doesn't need to be the only singer to validate the band's music.

[@Chris-km4wo]

The pure joy you can see illuminating off Martin when he sings is simply intoxicating. We need more!

[@stephaniet9049]

Love it always ❤

[@ivanatyushnyakova7434]

I feel like High Enough to Carry You Over needs a music video as well!

[@carlomagno5374]

[@solidkingcobra]

I like this version than the one in the album. this feels more raw and plus you can hear his accent which makes it more authentic.

[@daniiimignogue9067]

+Magnus McCloud Oh ok then I am not crazy! There is almost NO accent in the album version!

[@wohdinhel]

+daniii mignogue the version in this video is a single version, which definitely does have different vocals, as well as a slightly tweaked instrumental

[@qriminal1648]

So many great songs on that album. This one is overlooked and under appreciated.

[@I.am.starlight]

I have known Chvrches only for a year and it was an instant connection, became one of my favorite bands. And I don't understand why people don't appreciate Martin's singing as much as they should. Lauren is my Goddess but I appreciate all of them. All members are trully special and talented. And this song gets me into a dancing mood instantly. LOVE IT. Wish I could see them live and have this song on the setlist.

[@andresluck2009]

This is his tune!!

[@Rudra-mm1qf]

I'm watching you run Run from the sidelines Take in a breath Fill in your lungs Keeping you alive No fear I'll be your eyes I'll be a lifeline And if I can be I'll be your strength And it won't be long now Head up, head up Keep holding, holding Your head up, head up Keep holding If you can see And you believe Why are you so scared But if you don't care Then why are we here And what do you have left Head up, head up Keep holding, holding Your head up, head up Keep holding, holding Don't you take another step Away from here I would go anywhere with you What a lie I'll break down But you will never see Tell me, are you happy? Are you really happy? Stay under the tide Stay in my eye line Looking ahead, there is a chance Wherever it all ends Head up, head up And stay strong Holding your head up, head up Keep holding, holding

You are so correct Amanda. Great post. I just heard of these guys yesterday and I have been listening to them for 20 hours straight! They are one of the most refreshing, unique, talented and mesmerizing bands to come out in the last 20 years. I will continue listening to them for another 20 hours probably. Kudos to Chvrches!!!! Luv all their stuff.

[@80cp]

one of their best songs

[@szkokee]

This is a top 5 Chvrches song guys! Lauren you should sing along or let the guys be part of the vocals (like Night Sky). Its a nice contrast to your voice and elevates the song in a way, not many band has male and female singers and your voices complement eachother.

[@fwir711u2]

You need to see Martin live, the man add so much energy to the stage when he sings.

When he's live, his dancing is great :)

[@valeriaponcelopez5320]

I don't understand why this song is having so much hate, I think is amazing that the three members of this band sing and exchange the "role" of the vocalist in every song, it makes them so original and newflanged,besides, his voice is so beautiful and his accent too Sorry if I have some fails I'm working on my english

[@30secondstomarsMBH]

+Valeria Ponce They kinda don't, Lauren sings almost every song, but I get what you mean.

[@SaileshVaghela]

This is one of my faves off the album. Martin's fragile vox == perfect.

[@andregotz]

[@fawazshah]

I NEEEED that music video 😩

[@charmedrik]

+Andre Gotz Me too, friend!!!!

[@infiniteembrace]

There is a sort of down-to-earth-realism in how martin expresses himself and in how this song manifests through him. His 'character' here and in the live-performances (but not just the high-energy in his dancing), embodies something of modern man. In this tune is the mantra taught to us by our fathers and father-figures, one we keep repeating to ourselves, to keep our heads up - to keep going. It doesn't just 'come to us', we have to keep saying it, pretend to be 'strong', and hope to God that that 'our heads are actually kept up'. At once, this tune exposes that bewildering symphony that is the marriage of three things (a) the realization of our inherent weakness - that we don't have power, (b) an ecstatic hope - of the grace that will carry us through, (c) a satisfaction of this way of things.

[@meaghanwilliams2301]

One of their best; and F*ing EPIC live!

[@MrRaymo88]

Meaghan Williams, I just saw Chvrches twice a few weeks ago. Pretty picture by the way.

Personally, Martin's songs are some of my favourites. They have a really cool vibe and his voice fits really well.

[@DarkSp3c3d]

I just started looking into these guys yesterday, I wasn't feeling their music at first but this song is a tune. The guy on vocals provides a different sound, and I like it.

[@TheVenomreaver]

[@cbaxtianful]

This is just as amazing as a song that Lauren sings, cause Lauren is just one of the voices of Chvrches, just like the synth, the guy is awesome.

I absolutely love this song, when they performed it live in Edinburgh in the pouring rain in 2018 (I think) I lost my mind. Goosebumps! The live was a bit higher energy/tempo but I always come back to this song. Love

+NotSoTypical I think he has less accent in the studio album version, it's like they are slightly different. Saw him singing it live last week and loved every second.

[@TehMasterSword]

+daniii mignogue This track is absolutely better live. The studio version lacks the energy he puts into it.

[@TomGBuettner]

+NotSoTypical He draws his voice out too much in the version, it feels less sharp than Lauren's take. It would fit an acoustic rather than electronica version and is a little out of place. He is a very good singer though.

[@Mitchel-lz9um]

+NoSoTypical eveyone would prefer Lauren's vocals instead of Martin's.

[@rodNantz]

Under the Tide and High Enough to Carry You Over are one of the greatest songs from CHVRCHES, there's no debate here
