Lyrics:
Bathed in golden hour
Atop a distant tower
My love my love
See them seated down
To watch a nervous power
Perform perform Adored
Neon river, making me shiver
Black platinum wings
Neon river, holding my liver
Shaking as the city sings
Suns holding a glower
Burning all that flowers
Alone Alone
Aglow
Neon river, making me shiver
Black platinum wings
Neon river, holding my liver
Shaking as the city sings
Neon river, making me shiver
Black platinum wings
Neon river, holding my liver
Shaking as the city sings

2025 and still one of the best music videos in the 20s! ❤️🔥❤️🔥

Old school Pond!!!

[@roach9397]

Old school Pond meets new school Gum, and it’s fuckin beautiful

Love me some old school Pond x

[@bobby6009]

i'm a new fan so old school Pond is like how the song begins? the emotional vocal with that guitar ? if it is then im gonna go full pond and listen to all of their work

[@dandickmusic8841]

Me and several of my colleagues have come to the conclusion that pond is the best band in the world.

Only because they are.

@@josh05683 Exactly. People are acting like _9,_ _Tasmania,_ and _The Weather_ either don't exist or were somehow terrible albums, when in actuality they're Pond's best albums (thus far).

When Nick randomly spawned in the hill with exotic pants, i felt that. Great job guys👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@antoncarmoducchi6057]

exotic? i wear mine to lunch with the boss.

[@roach9397]

I’d love to hear Jay on vocals on more Pond songs! He and Nick’s sections contrast each other so nicely. This double album is gonna be top fucking notch

[@marisolvaccaro9710]

I really missed the old school Pond, I've been listening to them since 2012, this is the way , just an excellent song, thank you, I love you guys.

[@LanceVanceDance84]

I can't be the only one who actually prefers their more recent material to their older stuff. I love their _BWD_ sound as much as everyone else, but they've become capable of so much more than just rehashing the sounds they experimented with for an album that will always be there for us to enjoy. I do like how this track is essentially a throwback to that era, but I also hope that they continue to tweak and perfect the sound they've gone with for _The Weather,_ _Tasmania,_ and _9,_ all of which felt like natural progressions from each other. With this new album supposedly being a double album, maybe they'll touch on all the genres they've dabbled in while still pushing the boundaries of what psychedelic pop can be.

[@Errcyco]

If this was on a reel-to-reel and I was told it was made in 1971 you’d have me going for a minute. The bass guitar here may be the best old school tuning I’ve heard in years

[@jesusuu1]

heavy old pond vibes 💞

[@LanceVanceDance84]

As always, they _never_ miss. Bravo.

[@GRMNCVS]

Superb track, lovin it so much. We need FROND on spotify tho

[@jeks6403]

LET'S GOO, now this is the sound

[@rockriversniper]

For reallll. Finally

[@LanceVanceDance84]

I personally prefer the sound from The Weather and 9. This is absolutely amazing too and I enjoy how it's kind of like a throwback to the BWD days, but I hope there are at least a few songs similar to Paint Me Silver, America's Cup, Rambo, Toast, The Weather, Daisy, Czech Locomotive, etc. Since it's supposed to be a double album, they can easily do both and can even experiment with some newer sounds as well.

[@B-Swift]

Wow! 😮 can’t wait to see yall in North America!

[@hydeman9291]

Absolutely love this band! It sounds like they're trying to find their way back to older stuff, which is much welcomed.

[@codyarns2721]

Probably 20 listens in already. Think this song already ranks high with the Pond classics.

[@kansascityonline]

good stuff fellas.. damn good stuff.. wild applause can be heard in my hood!.. ps > dont skip Kansas City..!!.. nearly 3mil people here.. come on to KC...!!..

[@N8R_Quizzie]

Wow yeah I think I listened to it 30 ish times already and this is a masterpiece of Pond! Shiny Joe goes hard on this one as well as Jamie and James. Jay and Nick do so well with the contrast between the verses and chorus. I'm just floored! I really hope Seattle gets a tour stop and I wouldn't be opposed if this gets a 7" vinyl single
