Lily Allen - The Fear (on Sounds Like Friday Night)

[@idletalker]

this song aged like fine wine

[@claudi.o]

Lily sings live as if she did it in the studio. Big Lily Allen.

[@neilpearson357]

She can thank auto tune for that. Still a good song though

[@josephe94]

This is certainly live. Unbelievably, some artists can actually sing live...!!

[@tokiibun]

@@neilpearson357 This performance isn't autotuned

[@neilpearson357]

Actually you could be right, its certainly live and i know she can perform well live. I just thought some of her notes sounded like they were getting a bit of help, I'm no expert and could well be wrong. Its actually the only Lilly Allen song I like but its a fantastic tune.

[@claudi.o]

@@neilpearson357 I've seen her sing live, she does excellent.

[@rafaelmarques3509]

"The Fear," de Lily Allen, é uma crítica mordaz à cultura moderna de consumismo, superficialidade e obsessão pela fama. Na letra, Lily Allen explora temas como o materialismo, a pressão para se conformar aos padrões sociais e a superficialidade associada à vida das celebridades.A canção começa com a protagonista expressando seu desejo por riqueza e fama, mas logo revela a vacuidade e a insatisfação que acompanham essas aspirações. A música questiona a validade desses valores superficiais, mostrando como eles podem levar a sentimentos de medo e alienação. Com sua mistura de letras sarcásticas e um tom irônico, "The Fear" destaca as contradições e os problemas da sociedade contemporânea, onde a busca por status e a acumulação de bens materiais frequentemente substituem valores mais profundos e autênticos.Em resumo, "The Fear" critica a superficialidade e as pressões da sociedade moderna, refletindo sobre os efeitos corrosivos do consumismo e da obsessão pela fama.

😍👌🏻👏🏻🔥🔥🔥

[@justinwilson4922]

Don't like her political views, I gave her credit for marrying a down to earth, non celeb builder husband but she tired of him as it appeared she longed for life she used to have, the kind of life she mocks in this song. I do not actually like her music but I must say this song is utterly fantastic, I also watched a documentary about her being stalked for years and she came across as really grounded, sensitive and intelligent young women, I really felt for her. I think as she gets older she may well grow into a rather nice women. I don't really know her and its probably fair to say I'm a nobody but I felt compelled to type all of this cos I find her interesting!!!!.

[@badeneunson9628]

Bring back LA’s live performance of Fear on Later with Jools- red dress tight band- best ever. Come on, BBC, you can silence the naughty words....

What is dead may never die

[@blazinhard4897]

I FUCKING LOVE THIS CHICK....

[@Poemwriter_Angelo]

she sings great. wish she did a bit softer and added more vocal fry like the studio. it ads that bit more emotion.

[@joonasfilms]

The lyric is absolute bad ass and inspires me to write this one, here for everyone who needs more alternative music 00s🌠💙🎶🎸📺▶ kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4vWaIyQrLeFnpI

[@russky68]

I’ll just talk through it all...

[@rodval2322]

is it just me or it seems like she was not in the mood to perform?

[@iTeacupPanda]

She deals with a lot of hate to be honest. Plus, given one of her newer songs she feels evident guilt for not being a mom full time. But she also knows how important being a female role model for her daughter and showing her what a working woman is and feels conflicted I'd imagine.

[@AJ-cv9zf]

@@iTeacupPanda Alot of famous people recieve hate. Why is she any different?

[@iTeacupPanda]

@@AJ-cv9zf I didn't say she was any different, I just listed it as a reason. She DOES receive more hate than the average famous person. So yeah, she probably feels down from time to time. Plus other things. I don't see why you have to tag onto something and pretend you're making a point when you're not? A lot of people are depressed because of ____ reason, do you know why? Because ____ sucks and that's why they're depressed. Lot's of people dealing with something doesn't debunk or invalidate another person's issue.

[@r0mssik812]

@@iTeacupPanda Why are there a lot of people hating Lily?

[@iTeacupPanda]

@@r0mssik812 British press is different than American and some other countries. Things and people that wouldn't normally get targeted get more publicity than you'd think. Typically negative. People want to get mad at her for her political beliefs or opinions on the world even if they're not political. People want to judge her relationships with men, people want to critique her drinking, people want to target her parenting and how she isn't spending enough time with her kid but also her albums aren't coming out fast enough and then her albums aren't good enough for them. People really find any excuse to really attack her to be honest. Some of it can be justified with difference of opinion. But because her music is so full of opinions and judgments and commentary people feel they need to do it to her even more heavily when she was commenting on them commenting on her in the first place.
