[@aldoeljardinero]

This song is just something else. It’s brighter than anything they’ve put out in years and I’m all down for that. It sounds like a happy yet melancholic summer afternoon

[@NYCelticSoul]

Exactly! I dare people to not feel the need to skip through a field on a summers day while listening to it.

[@ryanllewellyn3472]

Summed it up perfectly 👏🏻

[@liam_riley]

It sounds really Cure inspired

[@lawrencetisdall9850]

This song is about as Perfect as it gets ! This is such a Great Great song , you can listen to this on loop for hours and not get worn out ! This is the song of 2024 , Just so beautiful !!!

[@dec2031]

Shane McGowan's ghost hangs heavy on this song..Ireland will never leave these lads..

[@johncubberley1943]

Fuck this is so good lovely stone roses esque riff.

[@archiet2205]

Agreed, initially the riff sounded quite Smiths-esque to me but I hear the stone roses in it as well

[@Riionzz]

The Cure too

[@daisybaker8528]

@@Riionzzmore cure definitely

[@davidbrooks4845]

i think it really sounds like the cure

[@ornellanocentini4116]

Agreed. It reminded me the stone roses too. So sweet.

[@MichaelCruz-g4t]

Early 90s Manchester sound feel. Love it

[@fractaled3129]

This song is stuck in my head since I heard it first two or three days ago. What a tune. Can't waut for the next album.

[@rhys6482]

i love their new sound. the next album is gonna be amazing

[@acquiesce01]

Such a Johnny Marr/The Smiths sound. Absolutely love it

[@westcoast5958]

Curley is playing Johnny Marr's signature guitar after all..

[@deathtoyou56]

You are very welcome. I wanted to make sure this new song could be heard. It’s so good.

[@zelilgirlI1ncenu]

Thanks for posting

[@NYCelticSoul]

You are very welcome. I wanted to make sure people get to hear “Favorite” before their new album “Romance” comes out in August 2024.

[@steventaylor201]

Absolutely quality, very cure esque riff can’t wait for the album

I've done an ultimate guitar mini tab for this along with a video. Nice little tune but the lyrics are what I love about this.

roll on august

[@mat890]

cant wait for the album

[@davidslebodnick3452]

melody reminiscent of Marr's guitar player in The Smiths in a more upbeat song like Cemetry Gates.

[@legui29]

😘🍀👍

[@mickeyaltizer2329]

Grian needs a bigger stage! Love it!

[@BarneyHahabd1963]

What a choon. Saw chilli was playing with them did he add much to the older songs

[@michaelharvey7883]

A new guitarist? In the background. Whsts the story?

[@NYCelticSoul]

Chilli Jesson is his name. He filled in for Deego on bass while Fontaines DC toured last year. Now that Deego is back on bass, it appears they have kept Chilli on for touring. He plays guitar and keyboard now.

[@thesquarebee6641]

Sorry that guitar is too close to Alvvays its ridiculous

[@104ist]

one string on the guitar playing the main riff is slightly out of tune on this performance but otherwise i like this one a lot more than the first single

[@Mujoman101]

Deegos vocals are way too much on this

[@MonticArckeys]

Bit loud

[@jfr1612_]

You can't say that. Deego is Top man!!😂😂❤❤❤❤

[@sratus]

Interesting band decision to wear the worst clothes on earth.

[@stellag.1166]

I like what Carlos is wearing

[@NYCelticSoul]

Music being played is paramount to fashion.

[@sratus]

@@NYCelticSoul At least you are admitting it's all absolutely horrific.

[@NYCelticSoul]

⁠@@sratus I’m saying music is what we should focus on and discuss and not the fashion. They can wear whatever they like. I don’t have to like or dislike what they wear. I live in NYC and people wear all kinds of fashion and no one even blinks.

[@sratus]

@@NYCelticSoul Yeah I just think it's hilarious personally, especially the bass player cosplaying as a 1990s Spice Girl.

[@dantroy5444]

Boring, tuneless & repetitive

[@ethanbegleyhughes7237]

Póg mo thóin

[@willdickinson1733]

More melodic than any other tunes I’ve heard this year

[@JMD166]

the vocalist is truely tuneless and clueless

[@jamers505]

you don't have to listen then mate, people are hear because they want to hear the song not your opinion on it

[@NSzymszym]

@@JMD166 Yeah, someone appears to be truely clueless but it's not the vocalist

[@daydreamings]

deego's mentioned before that fishmans are a massive influence on how he does backing vocals, really shines through in how he sings on this one. absolute stunner x

[@coffeeandpeach]

ooooh interesting! Do you perhaps have a source for that?

[@michaelwheeler5691]

yeah would be interested to know where you heard that, exciting if truee !!!

[@daydreamings]

@@coffeeandpeach sorry for seeing this so late!! if you’re still interested, he mentions them here around 7:45 xx kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6mpfWOImNmnp8Usi=BKObT3w7HLbw9lik

[@coreytoase8812]

Fuck me this is an absolute banger this album is about to be up with the greats

[@willdickinson1733]

Is this their best yet? Few words can describe this band - they’ve been my favorite for a long time

[@NYCelticSoul]

In a recent Rolling Stone article, Grian said the band unanimously feel “Favorite” is the best song they have written to date.

[@jfr1612_]

Great backing vocals by Conor... album is gona be beautiful!❤❤❤❤

[@naksu444]

[@ryanrodriguez3757]

Anyone have the lyrics? Or an idea?

[@NYCelticSoul]

See transcript below that KZbin autogenerates. It’s not 100% accurate but it gives an idea.

[@mikedx1]

So is Chilli Jesson officially in the band now???

[@NYCelticSoul]

It appears that Chilli Jesson will be part of their touring team. I don’t believe he is officially in the band.

[@aldoeljardinero]

I just hope he never touches the bass again bc he plays their songs so… idk, unlike deego

[@albertoramone2]

I have big expectations on their next album. There are more than 25 years since the last really good rock album.

[@stellag.1166]

So good

Updated Lyrics for "Favourite" Feel free to contribute - updated from those originally written by @secondone1714 Did you know, I could claim the dreamer from the dream? Make you feel everything you've never even seen It's been a long, a long, a long, a long, long, long You were my favourite for a long time Station fires (? - it's not this so please contribute if you have any ideas) and faces rearranged You feel beauty give (a) way to something strange It's been a long, a long, a long, a long, long, long You were my favourite for a long time Well, look who's (word missing here - just?) the newest clown 35 hours coming down And the sun shines on new pavement And you don't even feel it It's a cry far from red radios And days spent playing football indoors When they came to town/painted (the/this) town? with Thatcher They never even wanted to know ya Did you know, I can ____ sniff/slip/ the sunshine through/to the day? Make you feel everything you'd never even say Yeah, soon (it'll) be gone Be gone , be gone, be gone, be gone You were my favourite for a long time You were my favourite for a long time Did you know, sixties(?) on the turn are often strange? Yeah, now every time you blink you feel a change And it's been a long, a long, a long, a long, long, long You were my favourite for a while Makes sense when you understand Misery made me another man's man And I'm always looking over my shoulder And each new day I get another year older _______ frame of a door? Chewed into shape like a ________ on the shore But if there was lightning in me, you know who it was for Did you know, I could claim the dreamer from the dream? Make you feel everything you've never even seen It's been a long, a long, a long, a long, long, long You were my favourite for a long time You were my favourite for a long time You were my favourite for a long time You were my favourite for a long time

Why copy the lyrics and even asking for contributions that I wrote? You didn't add to anything, just copied me.
