Foals - Blue Blood [Official Video]

[@reubenhanrahan6161]

I'm 23 years old, I never met my father. He's in Ireland. I've decided to meet him. everytime I hear that line " of all the people I'd hope it be you to come and free me take me away SHOW ME MY HOME where I was BORN..where I belong" it touches me, those words are highlighted.

+Reuben Hanrahan honest words brother... i know the feeling

[@ooodatsgottahurt1625]

+Reuben Hanrahan Update?

[@ariorojas2901]

+Reuben Hanrahan : I don't know how tight is Yannis's relation with his dad and how it has been during his life...but I could infer he meant exactly this when he wrote the lyrics for this song....cause his dad is greek and yannis has lived almost all his life on england...so you never know...You might be on spot :) Hope everything goes right with your problems

[@filipcoufal8785]

+Reuben Hanrahan I never met my father and I don't care anymore.. but this sond is amazing!!

[@The_original_Silu]

This hits different when you know about FOALS lore and the fact that Yannis mom left him when he was a child so songs like blue blood (lyrics and music video), late night, and give it all talk about a lover, wanting to be loved back, overcome the loss of a loved one and parting ways with someone who used to be important in your life. Yannis used to have mommy issues, me too and that's why I love him.

[@KhatarsisDeMango]

Soo cool, someone with knowledge about Foals too 🤟

😆😁👏

[@matthewarcher1693]

You know a song is written well when there are so many interpretations of the lyrics for different listeners

[@williambachman6972]

This is my interpretation. Based on his clothes he's actually an adult but he feels like a nervous little kid as he try's to impress a girl/women he once knew. As I feel most guys get this way when they try to impress a girl they really like, very vulnerable.

[@blackalicious_2005]

He is only wearing a shirt and tie its basically a school uniform i think

[@The_original_Silu]

Well, Yannis mom left when he was a child so probably the kid is actually the son of that woman in the video. Another song that touches this topic is late night where he actually addresses his mother and how he doesn't want her love back, he's free now of the guilt and the sadness her departure left on him... I suppose hehe

[@cvsco7794]

I don't know if I was happier or not back then but this piece makes me shiver from old feels

[@IOUAK9]

Thank you Sir!

[@clj1885]

13 years later and still listening! Always wondered if that nice jam at the beginning of the video was ever made into a song? It's class.

[@SidetrackRxz190]

It's been 14 years since this song came out, it's been my favorite song since the day I've heard it, it just has something, so beautiful and special, it's got something that makes me feel warm, i'm so happy to have found this song so many years ago

[@thegeffanator]

Wow that kid has a really mature voice. Kind of hard to believe he's singing this.

[@Delphine0077]

He's not!

[@graddedflipper5485]

+Delphine0077 are you dumb

[@mikew9543]

+thegeffanator The kid does have an amazingly developed voice. He was a finalist on The Voice, Kids, right? He really nails this song.

[@fuckinnanswer1]

+Saint Lunaire what's his name? I wanna look it up

[@mikew9543]

+Franky Laaksonen Hmmm..... complicated. My comment was a troll of Delphne and graddedflipper, to support the joke of thegeffantor. Delphine and graddedflipped obviously missed the tongue-in-cheek nature of thegeffanator's comment.

[@Ty_Zu]

After all these years, still my favorite song from foals!

[@ShimmeringDuck]

Swimming in the ever present depths of depression was never personified as well as the four minutes and 58 seconds of celebratory melancholy which just elapsed. Thank you Foals.

[@vOcHaZOv]

I absolutely adore this song. Brings a tear to my eye.

[@gaboalvarez9849]

This lyrics are just perfect, describe so nicely the feeling of being really in love of someone who literally came to change your world.

[@eichbienyermaw]

The wee guy in the video is brilliant!! Great song!!!

[@maxquintanilla9511]

its been 10 years now, probably five since I know the band, and its the first time I see the video, I thought it be quite different as the song reminds me a sight of myself almost crying for the lyrics and my relationships problems, but its nice to watch this video and see the joy side of it, thanks @Foals

[@CaffeinatedGiraffe]

This music video and song could mean so many things: 1. His mom got an abortion and this kid is supposed to be like if he survived. 2. He is some kid confessing his love to his teacher. 3. It's an adult confessing his love, but he approached her like an innocent child. 4. This kid just found his biological mother after being adopted. The list could go on and on.

[@watertommyz]

I like 3 the best

[@Delta-ei7im]

3 works best

[@thatellipsisguy8984]

"You’ve got blood on your hands, I know it’s my own." She’s his teacher, and his abuser.

[@alguienconunvideojuego4606]

1 is the best and it fits so well.

[@Hsusk8]

I always get that student/teacher vibe about this.

[@keekz510]

i heard this song in 2011 at a night bar and i still hear it and feel the same exact way when i first heard it.

[@I.a.a.M.]

LYRICS You've got the blood on your hands, I think it's my own We can go down to the streets and follow the shores Of all the people, we could be two Then I bite my nails to the quick, run back home You've got blue blood on your hands, I know it's my own You came at me in the midnight to show me my soul Of all the people, I hoped it'd be you To come and free me, take me away To show me my home Where I was born Where I belong You've got blue blood on your hands, I want you to know I hoped you'd come and take me away, back to my home Of all the people, it had to be you Then I bite my nails to the quick, run back home You showed me Where to go To my home To my home So take me Through the roads That you know To my home You've got blue blood on your hands, I know it's my own You came at me in the midnight to show me my soul You showed me Where to go To my home To my home So take me Through the roads That you know Come and be accepted, affected, protected (You showed me) Come and be accepted, so now you know (Where to go, to my home) Come and be accepted, affected, protected (To my home, so take me) Come and be accepted, so now you know (Where to go, to my home) (To my home) You showed me Where to go To my home To my home So take me Through the roads That you know That you know (You know, you know) That you know (You know, you know) To my home So take me through the roads That you know where you know You showed me where to go to my home Come with me accept it, affect it, protect it Come with me accept it, so now you know Come with me accept it, effect it, protect it Come with me accept it, so now you know You've got the blood on your hands, I know it's my own We can go down to the streets and follow the shores Of all the people, I hoped it'd be you You showed me my way back home, to where I was born Where I belong, where I belong

[@BrahiamGarciaFlores]

Cada vez que escucho Foals, se torna una de mis bandas favoritas... Si bien es cierto, recuerdo cuando sacaron el Antidotes, un álbum genial con mucha energía y que era fácil engacharse con el tracklist que nos ofrecían. Luego vino este álbum, Total Live Forever, que para aquellos que esperábamos un toque similar al Antidotes no fue muy "bueno"... Pero, considero, que el Total Live Forever es un disco que tienes que escuchar varias veces, y de a poco, para que te parezca fantástico. Lamentablemente, recién estoy amando a este álbum, a pesar de haberlo escuchado a meses de haber salido, debido a que "Holy Fire" se volvió, en lo personal, el mejor álbum de Foals y el cambio que nos ofrecen en su tercer álbum, se siente un poco en el Total Live Forever. Espero vengan a Perú.

[@betloveu]

sí vinieron, amigo ♥

[@TheGreenDrunk]

Hey amigo No se si respondas esto pero Que te pareció Life is Yours?

[@turnerbaietto7954]

I'm a director in America and I've watched this video over and over and I must say, this young (maybe not anymore) actor, completely portrays what I feel when I hear this song. Bravo to whoever you are sir.

[@timetorocknroll1]

can't wait to see these guys live here in Brazil, this is my favorite song

[@Cloud10Sounds]

I surf youtube for good music and videos but time and time again I come back to this video. Why because it's absolutely what it's all about. Telling a story through music. And this song does that, with musicality and images that engage, draw you in and, for a few minutes, make you believe you're someone else, somewhere else. Can't beat that.

[@ewajackowska4115]

definitely my favorite of foals

[@camycraaps]

Christopher Connor - ok, ill be the first to ask you. What happened?

[@Bl00Bl00d]

This takes me back to 3 years ago and falling in love with Foals. My all time favourite band. This song and memories aghhhhkhskufhughrw

[@brodftw]

couldn't agree more. the amazing thing is with music videos that just like a very short story, you don't need much exposition at all to make it compelling. if anything the more mystery you leave the better

[@me1998ism]

The fact he is a Gryffindor makes it all that much more magical.

[@johnnyluvstacos]

This song makes me really emotional everytime I hear it. But then that funky bass line kicks in and it rules.

[@KeyNoteSpker]

this is exactly my kind of music. i love how there's an indie band out there to suit almost everyone

[@Kevinhonhep]

This reminds me of an early version of myself, a boy who had many dreams and was so fearful, but had some hope in future. This boy is dead today. I guess this is why people have kids and cherish them. This feeling of innocence and hope and silliness.

[@AshlynnAspires]

Just discovered this group. LOVing it!!

[@DingoXBX]

this was my favorite song when I was a kid, I'm here reliving those old memories once again ❤

[@alexjoeluke]

tis in the ranks to be the best song/video of the 21st century

[@strayy5680]

I’m guessing he tracked down his birth mother based on the lyrics. “Where I was born, where I belong.” Also, that little touch when he reached out to her and her partner/family member looked at her like “he’s yours?” 2:36

Hello there. I've read the comment of a person who's father is far away from them in Ireland. If you are reading this, cheers mate, I'm with you, wishing all the love you deserve. I'm an Ukrainian. I discovered for myself the band of Foals back in 2007 in my native city of Kherson. Now I'm 30, and I'm trying hard to get into Ukrainian army not knowing anymore where and when life will kick me hard. It has already kicked me hard indeed. This song is bringing me to tears now as I'm far away from my home, my girlfriend and from that, what remains of my home town. Wish you all love. War fckng sux, never start it.
