LYRICS:
I’ve seen the way you commandeer-
Blow out the candles, then disappear
Embrace the dust
Double clutch heresy-
Let’s watch the night
Explode in the street-
Don’t wait so long
The feeling’s coming over
You wait around
And it’s coming back to get you
Don’t wait too long
The feeling’s gonna come in a wave-
In a wave-
What’s this? They checked out the alibi
Bitch, I checked in as the reason why
I’m getting closer to the sun-
You hurt so long
Here comes the dark moment
Come along they’re waiting
Come along they’re waiting
For us to run
But for us to run is running away
Away from now
Away from thee
A simple lie to call upon your sympathy
Everybody get out of line
Everybody get out of line
Everybody get out of line
(Left speaker)
And where were you?
Always nothing there
I aim to go
(Right speaker)
And those that stay
Will meet inside
For no one else
For you and me
Will see what lies within
(Eggmen)
Drop top
Mop top
Driving to the pop shop
Pit stop
Pit stop
You can hear the pin drop
Chop chop
Cash crop
Back into the truck stop
Drop top
Pit stop
Step into a cold cock

[@candycoatedtv4691]

@@donniebobb74 she sure is ❤️

[@AtomicMidwest]

Let me tell you, The Director here, she was AMAZING. Be proud of that. She did amazing for not knowing what she was walking in to.

[@candycoatedtv4691]

I am extremely proud of her and I thank you guys for the opportunity! ♥️

[@angelariley.9963]

Really? Which one is she?

[@NubbyEvo]

Greg Dulli is an American nation treasure.

[@djshakeappeal1051]

Hard to believe that the Whigs have just released their greatest album in 2022.. it’s an absolute masterpiece from start to finish.. kudos to Dulli & co… xx

[@Fukafukafufu]

The most definitive song from this masterpiece of an album. There's melodies in this tune that argue "I'm the most definitive Afghan track of all time, possibly ahead of 'Faded'". Eitherway, Dulli is on an incredibly hot creative streak, and the Afghan's are further my fav band of all time!

[@rodrigamer46]

If you wanna be RELAXED. LISTEN THIS GREAT SONG

[@DexterDexter123]

how the fck are the whigs still churning out bangers like this?! must have played this and Domino and Jimmy a thousand times.

[@adamradtke5926]

I'm deeply moved when I listen to it. And I'm Polish, so I don't understand the words until I read them. So all music, voices and atmosphere make my cry. A beautiful song that I listen to over and over again as if I were a teenager

[@drivel2]

Jesteśmy w tej samej sytuacji. Dulli jest po prostu nieziemski. Nie ma czego szukać. Słuchaj i tyle.

[@dylan4694]

The Whigs burn on…Beautiful chorus that tattoos itself upon your heart and a roller disco girl to die for..line me up these shots forever

[@bend7777]

This is just what I needed. The only problem with this song is that it isn't long enough. The video is simply amazing.

[@nicolacugini1931]

A real masterpiece. Dulli genius.

[@asregdor3386]

Greg and the gang can do no wrong .

[@lrcguitars]

Best Goddamned Band on the Planet.

[@jonathanaman6573]

I saw the Afghan Whigs and it mirrored the joy of Christmas Day when I was seven.

[@michelleisaacson6069]

Omg, the rolling skating is epic!! No one does that anymore....well, lol, I do. Every Sunday night. Ages 25+ to enter. It's magical! And this song is just stellar!! Can't wait to hear the whole album!!!! ❤️❤️

[@retrogamereaper]

Anyone else getting Boogie Nights vibes from the video? It might be a stretch, but a reference to that movie wouldn't be crazy for this band. Great song!

[@tomhinds3149]

Superb! The Afghan Whigs never fail to amaze! Viva La Rosser!! 🖤🖤 b

[@michaelcardwell4616]

Love it. Lots of vintage whigs in this tune.

[@nataliabaage]

Nice touch on the skate laces. 💙💖

[@rorybell2161]

Absolute stone cold belter this track.

Nice nod to our youth guys. Better days baby

[@dregen77]

Beautiful video and song. The Afghan Whigs are one of the most special bands I know. And still killing it!

[@thepayne7862]

Can't wait for the new album.

[@angelapuorro213]

Beautiful song and video magic…Brings back memories of working at a Roller Rink in 1990 🛼

[@americanwatercolormovement]

fantastic visuals - especially love that ceiling crawl when the music kicks in

[@mireillemichel7638]

Love this . I don’t have the words to describe it though it makes me feel ecstatic. Monsieur Dulli sounds phenomenal.

[@rochellepettijohn5167]

Damn it! At the Tampa VIP session I offered my bellydance service and the use of my 75 Eldorado if a video is ever filmed in Tampa. We suggested a "Florida Man" video. I didn't offer my rollerskating skills! I can spin with the best of them!

[@slackerman_music]

Great song! Glad to see the band is still at it! ❤

[@evryhndlestakn]

Delicious thank you. A cupful of water in the 🏜️ desert

Really wonderful

[@guimeplaying]

Que música linda!

[@CrystiStevenson]

My honest opinion. You released the first single that got me sooooooooo excited for thr new record, seriously thought, YESSSS! They are going to ROCK this one! Went and saw Jack White and was REALLY looking forward to seeing you guys since pre-covid....(been seeing every show in LA since early 90s, all incarnations) and we're back to odd imagery, like when u sold pink lame floyd merch (remember that? ). Most of this stuff sounds like should be Twilight material! (Have everything, I'm a Dulli Addict!) Where is the ROCK?? NOT saying I don't like the music, just rock a video & not all this imagery. Love you, will be there as always! Just my 2 cents. Much love & success to you!! ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗 💘 ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗 💘 ❤️ 💙 💜

[@Casper-fl1wy]

These guys don't miss. Very surprised they aren't bigger than they are.

[@adg_87]

They're fan base is very loyal though. They'll always have a following.

[@dariobarjaktarovic1161]

What a band! Looking forward to see them in Zürich soon!

[@GabrielVendries]

My fav song on the new record.

[@myownguitarcorner4943]

Really nice!

[@madpedalboards]

Wow, love this! Love the video as well. Will see them in concert in two days!

[@michaelcleary9463]

I hope Greg lives forever, my world is getting smaller all the time, that goes for all the whigs

[@cacau76]

My favourite

[@costanzoschiavelli8833]

Grande band. Bravi 👏👏

[@oceanlondon]

The bell bottoms make it perfect!

[@evryhndlestakn]

I'm from NZ, can you believe that, forget bell bottoms, I can't even buy boot cut jeans! Only straight cut or, for men, yuck, tapers. Despite a sales guy in 2020 telling me it's cyclical & they'll be back in 2022, nah. I realize this is a little obscure. I love the Whigs, Twilight's & Dulli's work. R.i.p Mark Lanegan.

[@oceanlondon]

@@evryhndlestakn bellbottoms are always hip.

[@evryhndlestakn]

@@oceanlondon hell yeah! They project relaxation & being comfortable in your own skin. I can't get any! I've even rung the shop & they say No. This is madness. Just for boot cut.

[@matteozaghini441]

Ma che braviiiiiii

[@abeach5420]

Outstanding video and song both.

[@camann33]

Nice one, lads! Well done!

[@janr4143]

Whoever produced this video did do a giant glean of creative license of Ryan Rundle's original video works. Plagiarism is flattery. Beautiful song, Whigs❣️🎶

[@thefcknidiot2408]

😎❤😎

[@MultiSweener]

Can I roller skate with those girls?

[@rillekratzer1658]

L❤ve it .

[@oscargonzalezarnedo2288]

Greg (deep throat) Dulli 🤘🤘🤘👌👌👌

[@muchvogel3448]

They were good long long ago

[@EdwinCannistraci]

I love the song, but this video looks like an American Apparel ad. It should be the band playing a dive bar with a bunch of drunk patrons living it up and becoming kings and queens for a night. Not space suits and choreographed roller skaters. This video screams "middle-aged band thinks it's still the 00's and not cool to be a rock band." Thankfully the music is a different story, but I wish Greg Dulli wouldn't hide from his past persona and bring back the scrappy, panther-like soul man he used to be. He should be reaching his Marvin Gaye Midnight Love period now, sporting sharp threads and strutting around like the coolest cat this side of Detroit! Don't cage the panther, Greg. Embrace him and free him...!!!

[@AtomicMidwest]

You kinda remind me of a pilot fish on a great big whale.

[@EdwinCannistraci]

​@@AtomicMidwest So the guy who's NOT just going along and saying "the video is genius" is the pilot fish? I reject your marine life analogy (unless it was meant as a compliment because pilot fish are kind of sharp-looking with those black stripes).

[@shaymus_mcfamous8654]

I respect your opinion. 1st time I heard it was live at the ATL show, and it was very funky with a super bass groove. That groove and Greg's almost ethereal vocal gave me a really cool feeling of nostalgia. That's what I love about The Whigs, the emotionality in the music matching the lyrics in any tempo. Those emotions being different for each song or album of songs. When I heard the recorded version it fell a little flat with me when holding it up to the live version I experienced. That said, When I first saw this video, it seemed to elevate the recorded version 75% of the way up to that live version for me. I think the skating rink and metallic mistiness brought that similar nostalgia meets modern sleekness to the recorded version. It made me appreciate the recording better than I had, and that has got to be at least part of the reason for a video , at all. I also think pilot fish are cool. They are sleek and nostalgic with their black seersucker duds. Cheers!

[@EdwinCannistraci]

@@shaymus_mcfamous8654 I appreciate your thoughtful reply to my comment. Funny, it was kind of the opposite for me: I immediately loved the song and thought it was one of the best songs Dulli ever wrote (which is saying something!). So I was bringing a lot of expectations to what this video could be or should represent, etc. Perhaps too much so. You and another AW fan I'm friends with have made me appreciate the video a bit more (it is beautifully shot and I do like its vibe). Awesome that you got to see the band perform it live too. I just recorded an in depth video review for the new album; when I'm finished editing it, I'll post a link to this thread. I think you'll appreciate my thoughts on it. Cheers! 🥃👍🏼

[@AtomicMidwest]

@@EdwinCannistraci not to worry. I actually shot this and had 8 hours to do it. I do appreciate your criticism as it helps me understand certain things that can and cannot be in my control. I guess that’s the way it goes. I mean, ya can't please everyone right? What I am proud of however, is how a group of total strangers got together in that short amount of time and made something bittersweet. Could it have been something else? Sure, was there time? No. We made exactly what we could do and fate would allow. I gotta say, I can stand by that.

[@markbaker8607]

Shamalama to the ding dong

[@maryg1013]

This sounds like Oasis

[@trisfaz]

Trust me, this sounds 100% Greg Dulli

[@TheFaustianMan]

This album kinda sucks. It sounds like it wasn't produced properly. The director of the video ripped off the doc, "United Skates" check it out.

[@AtomicMidwest]

Can't say I ever saw it homeslice.

[@louisrichards3160]

Ok I’ll say it This song doesn’t speak to me! Hopefully this is the only clunker🤷‍♂️😢

[@geekyclicks]

C'est bizarre...
