[@7for723]

I’m sorry, but the vibes of these hosts just ain’t it. Leading a ‘boo’ after bringing up Taylor? What is this 2015? I’m so glad Matty shut that down immediately. What a low move, steeped in misogyny ew…

[@janecampbell5264]

And all the kissing questions. Shock jock radio host vibes 🙄

[@7for723]

@@janecampbell5264 exactly!!! It was so uncomfortable to watch, like that’s not the point. Their performance art piece is so interesting, ask about that. Why keep going in about the kissing 🙄🙄

[@VenusHotline]

Literally my very first thought.

[@NALung]

The hosts were simply clueless and atrocious.

[@clifftonl-vuitton2770]

@@7for723 for fuck's sake you guys are the clueless ones. When you make headlines for kiss fans on stage in front of thousands of people, you can’t act weird when you’re asked about that very thing.

[@antonionsfw]

matty sounds so much better compared to his older acoustic performances (2018-2020)

[@Zacharysharkhazard]

Ikr he sounds fucking great, compared to his 2013-16 performances it’s like a completely different singer (in a great way)

[@Ashtonklein-ln3xo]

fr!! he got better with his voice control and stopped cursive singing

[@ErinxXxBaby]

@@Zacharysharkhazardhe sounded amazing in those too though…

[@danieldonnelly3242]

This performance proves that an acoustic album of the hits is an absolute must. Love the stripped back versions of Paris and Its not living. Matty gets better with age

[@wondersoftheworld5]

i love them sm. matty is beaming w happiness recently and im so glad. they killed this. fav part was when he asked if they wanted to do the selling petrol bit LOL

[@alexanderdeadmansche]

Yeah that was funny the band all laughed too

Matty’s voice is insanely good 🥹🥲

[@saltedpotatochips]

[@amandamiller7318]

Why do all radio hosts give off weird vibes/ ask weird questions?

[@amit687]

My guess is they all have high opinions of themselves and are clueless to the actual reality of them being cringe

[@annaine]

Yeah, he didn’t let the woman finish what she wanted to say 🤨

[@ztheresurrection]

This version of When We Are Together sounds very country and warm 🥹. I feel like this was gonna be their npr tiny desk set if it ever came into fruition.

how are the hosts not embarrassed asking these weird ass questions? it's like they don't realize they're talking to real people

[@kylestevensanders]

Them playing Oh Caroline in C instead of D is so real to help Matty sing it well in this context

[@Rockinchick11]

Always helps when you can’t sing so full voice.

[@H20chica14]

I loved this so much!!! They sound SO GOOD! It’s like 1975 Unplugged. Only thing would have been better is if I had won tickets LOL ! Next time !

[@midnightvillage]

its seriously such a vibe

[@floriangotting3981]

Do you know the thing about The 1975? They just keep getting better. It's really impressive what a development they've made. The new album is so unique and special, need it every day. Every new record is a major advancement. I'm looking forward to the further development.

[@rilars]

Weird vibes from the hosts

[@liltoaster4397]

Why you gotta dis my bois Fine Klein and El Cheapo double deuce is loose

[@LorenzoGollia]

Honestly...

[@kirstenmccluskey4445]

I feel like radio hosts never TRULY appreciate the bands. They don’t put their entire album ON BECAUSE there’s just TOO many bands they needs to interact with. I kind of feel cringy bad for them because they can’t help it. They should have fans ask the questions

[@clifftonl-vuitton2770]

I mean they’re matching how weird Matty's been on stage tbh

[@Tony-iu7sw]

Well, if you notice. He tried to shake the guys hand as he came on stage and he ignored him. Disrespect someone and sometimes they'll do the same.

[@Alexis-yw3hg]

I love this band so much! 😩 This felt so cozy and intimate.

I feel like it needs to be abundantly obvious that Jamie is as important as any of the other main four. Jamie is exceptional.

[@clifftonl-vuitton2770]

he should be… Part Of The Band

[@sofiaguerrero0969]

Why is Jamie absent during promotions when he’s always at their concerts?? Is he like a permanent member or do they switch his position to others depending on the album?

[@andrewj04]

Same with John Waugh. He’s been with them since their first US tour or so and he’s phenomenal

[@adriannacrespin9657]

@@sofiaguerrero0969Jamie and John are their touring musicians. John came around in 2013 and Jamie was 2015. Yes both appear in music videos and are important to the overall sound but are not permanent members if that makes sense.

[@tiffanyle-pham3000]

these interviewers are not the vibe lol

[@arellanopedro]

Hearing It’s Not Living If It’s Not Living You Acoustic was amazing

[@mattlucken7841]

This performance of When We Are Together is absolute gold. Saw them live in Chicago on Friday, and they are literally "At Their Very Best".

[@con2468a]

Baffles me how people are stood recording on their phones, knowing it’s being recorded

Such a lovely group of friends making such gorgeous music. The 1975 are a family and you can feel it when they play. Also Jamie is a fucking a beeeeaast

[@cody3335]

Dude Jamie is phenomenal. The lapsteel playing and harmony.

[@benharding3700]

So underrated, the whole band is incredible but Jamie is so so good

[@tjafw]

@@memo29b he sung the chorus to it’s not living whilst matty recovered from his panic attack at their latest show in Newport

[@mahk777]

the 1975 was flawless. the hosts were not. the way the guy cut the co host off like twice was just awkward and not kind in the way I perceived it. Live performance is killer though

[@festivalparkYT]

[@nothannsmum]

this was like a warm hug

[@jackcross8616]

The interview questions sucked

[@EddieCharles96]

George’s reaction to that question was brilliant

[@krystofbla]

Jamie is the musician in this band. Like come on, they're playing Oh Caroline with 3 guitars, but in fact it is only about the keys. Paris is more like bass and keys. But it's crazy how much it depends on his performance.

This live version of When We Re Together is soooo good 🥲

Our first kiss was Christmas in the Walmart toy department She said, "I should take you with me when I leave" And we were searching New York for a fancy new apartment She said, "Central Park is SeaWorld for trees" You ask about the cows wearing my sweater It's something 'bout the weather that makes 'em lie down The only time I feel I might get better Is when we are together I like socks with sandals, she's more into scented candles, oh I'll never get that smell out of my bag It was poorly handled, the day we both got cancelled Because I'm a racist and you're some kinda slag You ask about the cows wearing my sweater It's something 'bout the weather that makes 'em lie down The only time I feel I might get better Is when we are together, oh, together I'm better at writing, was just a way to get you biting, oh The truth is that our egos are absurd I thought we were fighting, but it seems I was gaslighting you I didn't know that it had its own word You still ask about the cows wearing my sweater You said it's something 'bout the weather that makes 'em lie down The only time I feel I might get better Is when we are together
