[@Ham4Ever1]

This first demo one hundred percent needs to be released, please.

[@eastbayjake]

They need to release it with a cover of “What The 1975 Sounds Like to Non-Fans” as the B side

[@Ham4Ever1]

@@eastbayjake I didn't know what that was, just looked it up, and think that's an excellent choice. It could have easily been sold as another demo to me😂

[@charliemaynard6375]

You can tell Matty’s head works overtime, all the time

[@jakewaters_music]

God bless the band

[@jakewaters_music]

Especially George

[@benbaker4542]

@@jakewaters_musicgo outside and smell the flowers and chill out!

[@isaacdynys6518]

Yeah with shifty ideas like greta thumberg song or whatever her name is

[@timpage9424]

There's definitely a reason my guy got addicted to heroin. 😅

[@sixxed1774]

This demo version for "It's About Time" is absolutely insane. I'm in agreement with Matty about needing to release it. Even with just having the intro, a verse, and a chorus (?) with a transition into the incomplete second verse, I'd take it. I'd have it on repeat for days. It boggles my mind to see how Matty is so creative in a chaotic fashion but within that, he has that vision of where the finished product will be. I've watched the other interview Tape Notes did with him and I get a similar vibe. He's just like a child in the studio (even during an interview) and it's nice to see that passion. You can't fake that. Amazing work as always.

[@vrsq0863]

a sample of björk taking apart a t.v becoming a defining lyric in the first song on the album that has seen them reach their absolute pinnacle is very very ‘75

[@FProDaily]

That first demo is making me rethink everything.

[@RileyNicoll]

That's crazy how the anxiety music has essentially become the starting jingle of the 1975 shows, I just got home from the Still At Their Very Best shows in London and a version of the anxiety music plays before the curtains drop

[@_HOLDON]

This interview format with artists is so good

[@Westinpayne]

oh man that last “anxiety” track with no vocals…George’s electronic work is so beautiful. we need it!

[@Modem360]

So that's the version they're playing before their show begins!! I have been searching for half a year for that version of It's About Time!

[@mvrckjames]

I wish they would release a demo EP

[@willmcgarrie5938]

Hey, would you be so kind to check out my band @oceanlessofficial ? 🙏🏼🙌🏼 Hope you enjoy! 🙌🏼🌊🖤

[@amanda9043]

“The tension exists in the fact that it isn’t resolving.” Love that

[@4UST1N]

Been listening to The 1975 for a long time now, this is the first time I heard George talk

[@WowBigMoo]

Been a 1975 fan for 11 years, just learned why they started each album with the self-titled track. Never thought I'd hear Matty say "SAY-GUH"

[@kristenseese5767]

It is an absolute crime to not release these Matty 😭😭😭😭

[@whateverthatwas]

I hope George produces all the songs in the next album

[@kaiser-yg3qm]

he produces most of if not all of the 1975 songs

[@ehwerrr_]

Yeah, would really love for Jack Antonoff to not be involved ( no hate ) just my opinion. Don’t need another Bleachers esque album

[@marklll4426]

always felt like bfiafl's intro feels like watching a movie where the first few seconds of it are the main characters running in a big dried out field from something we dont really see. now i understand!!! i love hearing george and matty talk about it smmm and it made me love the final version of the intro so much more

[@WowBigMoo]

Looking back at a project a few months or years later and being like "wait this old version is better" is so real.

[@Loz294xo]

RELEASE ALL OF THEM!!!!!! I BEGGGGG 😭😭🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@stopme7030]

I've heard the "It's About Time" demo over and over on TikTok, and I am so depressed every time that I can't listen to it on spotify

[@ybhamster]

I love watching them talk about the their love of making the music I love.

[@cozykai]

It's about time YOU RELEASED THAT SONG because its AWESOME

[@ssalas7374]

I love both versions… would definitely love to have this one released.

[@martinad4607]

george the brains behind the operation ladies and gentlemen

[@MeowMan242]

They gotta stop listening to Jack Antonoff, these are mint

[@abbyhuntley3171]

Everyone talking about It’s About Time but I really love that Brief Inquiry The 1975 demo!

[@jjxshua]

These demos gotta be released. I love both versions of About Time but this demo is just so much better what happened 😭

[@cxmey]

PLS IM BEGGING FOR ITS ABOUT TIME TO BE RELEASED

[@dmndz]

RELEASE IT!!!!! NOWWWWWW

[@somebadyxx3770]

I think someone uploaded it already “The 1975 - It's about time (Alternative mix)”

[@poiuykkpoii840]

Just release everything lads. Kindest regards, all your fans.

[@tyannemorris8707]

THIS NEEDS TO BE RELEASED ❤

[@Spermwhales93]

They definitely need to properly record It's About Time and put it out. Maybe as a bonus track on a deluxe edition of Being Funny...?

[@beepboopblorp]

PLEASE RELEASE THIS

[@nicdiaz1998]

Am I the only one who likes what we got more? I feel like the demo, while good, doesn’t fit with the rest of the album tonally. The demo sounds like it’s from A Brief Inquiry(which they confirmed in the writing process) and would’ve fit better there

[@animeshpandey8759]

Release them alllllll pleaseeeeee

[@raulsegovia1107]

RELEASE IT PLEASE!!!

[@lorelieenos9942]

This exists as a download somewhere on a KZbin video which links to their Google drive. I have about 8 unreleased songs, including this version of It’s About Time, which I got from there. I LOVE this version. I am not trying to be vague I just downloaded the songs a long time ago and I don’t remember the details. If you want it, and dig for it, I bet you can find it.

[@robertnguyen2025]

How? Just Google the songs name ? Please let me know how ?

[@jonathanfaessel653]

Really!? I'd love to hear them! Would it be possible for you to share them?

[@lorelieenos9942]

Ok, I went back and dug around and the title of the video is “The 1975 - Being Funny in a Foreign Language (Alternative Mix)”, in the description there are 13 songs listed, under that is a Google doc listed which is not a link but I typed it into a browser and got them from there.

[@jonathanfaessel653]

​@@lorelieenos9942okay so I found the video but when I put the link in a browser, I just get the the basic google stuff. Would it be possible to share the actual link with me (private if necessary)?

[@luciano6659]

share the link cuh @@lorelieenos9942

[@christiankellermusic2150]

They gotta release it

[@QUINTtastic]

Dammit you guys, you really need to re-record some demos and put them out. How fun

[@timestestified]

[@barbarasipos]

These NEED to be released, especially the first one

[@QUINTtastic]

Oh hell yeah that version would be a great jam for spring/summer. UbiquitASS. You must remix remaster and release that!!

[@yamilletrivas8041]

I need this to be released if it hasn't 🫀

[@danha5791]

Bro violated most of us by giving cliffhanger demos 😢 bro better release it on the next album

[@BatmanHQYT]

You guys definitely color graded this differently than the Patreon vid. More saturation and contrast it looks like, plus some added blue hue.

[@AaronSternke]

If they ever played this version live imagine how everyone would lose their shit

[@annaine]

You’re right, Matty, we want it! 😊

[@LaLaLaLoganOliver]
