This song hurts in a way so beautiful... That you can feel so fortunate to be able to feel sorrow and pain in those notes in his voice, in the lyrics... What a beautiful sh*t is to be broken!

I have now been listening to this for the better part of a decade. If you see this realize not only are these lyrics class but the guitar makes almost no mistakes. This song is what i come back to for inspiration.

[@nickster2351]

This was one of the first songs I ever learned to play, so this means a lot to me.

[@talibanchristian]

this song is hard I always pick extra strings lol

[@wewantmore100]

Love how Kele says "thanks for having us" to acknowledge the presence of the guitarist too. Joint effort as it was. Appreciate that

[@davidburke2132]

Would have been more that weird and incredibly rude if Kele had just said “thanks for having me” after the presenter had literally just thanked both of them personally by name! 🤣🤣🤣

[@wewantmore100]

David Burke I have zero memory of writing this comment but I wholeheartedly agree with you haha

[@davidburke2132]

wewantmore100 Hehe. The vagaries of the KZbin algorithm does throw up some old videos to watch quite often doesn’t it? 😜

[@nicolasvillegasful]

That's really cool!

[@oijimmyslay]

I will never grow tired of this.

[@itchyego]

I haven't known a "new Band" that has moved me so much as Bloc Party..... Brilliant writing, music, arrangements.... I love it ! It carries me to be more inspired, to try new things with my own music! You have to think outside the Box to create this music. and they do! - Ken in Hawaii!

[@brid5970]

Ken Johnston couldn’t agree more I’m addicted to they’re sound. Basement jaxx, massive attack and crystal castles. I’m happily reverting back to my angsty teen years in a tiny country town in the middle of Australia. I always had to enjoy them on my own but I just love when music actually moved me ❤️❤️

[@petemacarthur]

Loved this band for 20 years, however, loving even more the sighing, effete, fawning, limp-wristed sycophantic tubes fainting over it 😂

[@robwheeler5415]

Reminds me of being a teen and being in Love, great rendition ❤️👍

This song has always meant a lot to me, but now more than ever. These modern loves break me

Great song. Their album 'Silent Alarm' had some great songs on it. I don't think they ever produced another one that was as good. That's not a criticism-it was a ridiculously high bar.

[@dreamalike5137]

What kind of picking is Russel doing? Is it alternate picking that makes him pick so fast?

[@davidburke2132]

In the verse sections it is alternate picking. In the chorus sections it’s essentially economy picking (which is essentially picking in whatever direction makes most sense for the next note/string that you need to play) with some rakes (which is almost like a slow strum across several strings, usually across a chord shape, to make each string sound immediately one after the other). Just to say, whilst Russell is very competent nothing in this song is particularly fast or tricky, except where it comes to repeating it perfectly with precision in a live performance context.

[@DarkfilledMARK2-dz7wj]

I should really say this much. No. I'm not a " crash test dummy." I don't trust either side, and so I'll just go ahead and say it. Davis county, and Ohio County are working together to get me to take the fall for something I don't really give a shit about. That's what's up. It's just a game. Don't worry about saving me. Nobody can, but me. Honestly I don't care if I'm to be ratted out again or not. I won't be locked up again tell you what. Gonna be a fun show folks. Someone is going to rat me out. You'll see.

[@zebu08]

So 'Truth' is a sort of 'remix' of this song then?
