[@AnnaMichell98]

I swear this isn't "just a song". It really gets me into this nostalgic and melancholic atmosphere. This is, by far, my favorite song from Given To The Wild. I really feel my love for this song strengthens each time I listen to it.

[@nowitssovivid1273]

I'll miss this band.

[@apoveda9]

Now It's So Vivid I don't think my life keep beeing the same without them 😪 so really sad

[@durdy911]

Them and Anberlin. Hard to absorb the loss. The way their music inspires, and the feelings summoned. great full for the past 14 years of their music and Anberlin.

[@hearditman]

Just wait for the re-union tour in a couple of years!

[@antoniomanuelcruzlopez7482]

Pero su legado sigue,escuchando sus canciones es como si siguieran juntos!!!

[@moanteq6724]

What happened to them?!?!?!?

[@elleari89]

This song has a special place in my heart. I went away for the first time, to an entirely new culture, for 3months. I was alone and overwhelmed. This song brought me peace

[@saulibus1]

Peacd

[@butisabella]

This song, this album, this band

[@ilandoesntmatter6747]

You can't be more than that

[@redoorevealed]

i can't put into words what I feel everytime i listen to this.

[@chewaithe5124]

Amna Parvez I know right, i get nostalgic... takes me back to a great summer...

[@Barbra.f]

have the identical feelings ! touchy song and vibes !!!

[@redoorevealed]

I still haven't found the words.

[@1000bookstoread]

I like this song, it doesn't make me feel angry or sad. It doesn't make me feel happy, it just makes me feel alright, or doesn't make me feel anything special at all. It's really peaceful in that.

[@yahard42]

it just feels right. like the soul is on point

[@seancoulton2044]

what a tune it gets better with every listen

[@dmrsk1899]

+Sean Coulton couldn't say it better

[@mariamaldonado9268]

I love this song. It's amazing. Orlando's voice it's beautiful. *u*

[@joaopereiramunoz5205]

+Lupita Weirdo se parece mucho a la cancion Hurts like heaven de Coldplay

[@mariamaldonado9268]

No manches!, no es cierto OuO, no se parece en nada. Y no tiene que ver que no me gusté Cold Play; sino objetivamente escrbiendo no se parecen, el ritmo es completamente distinto a Went Away.

[@joaopereiramunoz5205]

yo creo que si, tiene esa alegria, ademas el tono es muy parecido y sobretodo el riff en el que me parece que utilizan el mismo efecto de guitarra, una mezcla de ligero overdrive y un toque de reverb

[@ardatoklu2733]

memories.

[@fredhill3845]

Maccabees actually deserve soo much more credit

[@rjlplondon]

Best band in Britain. Bar none. Shivers down my fucking spine.

[@charlieblockclocksnow]

radiohead: hold my beer

[@SamChaplinify]

There's such emotion in this song! I love it!

[@mitsukosuki]

I've never loved a band as much as I love The Maccabees! They are authentic artists and this album is so beautiful! Thank you guys for your amazing music!

[@racingthroughmymind]

The guitar at 1:30 gives me chills everytime! Amazing! This live would just be unreal!

[@khakshaiha777]

He has a beautiful voice

[@foxmulder8139]

One of the most consistantly brilliant bands I've ever heard

[@LegacySolidGames]

Es como si esta música estuviera echa para hacerte sentir bien :'D

[@jalejandrosandoval]

Sera un clásico!!! Increíble Rola!!!!!

[@andreadelpilarbautistacarr6003]

0:19 Doritos unshower? What!? hahaha

[@redoorevealed]

Andrea Bautista ahahaha dirty toes!

[@chewaithe5124]

Andrea Bautista hahahahhahaha

[@SilviaSchirinziSS]

I genuinely think The Maccabees sound is pretty unique...maybe it's Orlando's voice, most probably is the proper sound of it but they are a piece of rarity and I do appreciate all their developments. Yes, you can say Wall of Arms or Colour in it were more fresh but this is mature and undeniably good.

[@aididmdnoor1526]

yeap, still listening to this

[@lucylu9519]

My favorite band, My favorite song. 😭❤

[@MotherTeresa456]

Just mesmerising. They continue to blow me away with every song.

[@opioverde]

This song can reflect a lot emotions, it's nostalgic way to explain the drugs consume.

[@RuckusTheRuckus]

Seriously, you guys are so epic it hurts. chills....

[@ISMR2556]

Spectacular!!! like every other track on the album!

[@opioverde]

2020 and I'm crying in the middle of pandemic

[@hillosful]

they're really so good their songs are taking you away

[@KOL-by5sd]

Bloody brilliant, this is PROPER music.

[@friedhippie]

I love the Maccabees so much. They get better and better with each album.

[@4aces1heart]

cant get enough of this band at the moment!

[@arcticmonkey712]

this whole album is genius, there's not a song that i don't love, every one is a true masterpiece. i love the maccabees!

[@wiinkywiinky]

can I just mention how beautifully this video is? The photography is absolutely stunning!

[@cetmar29rockergay]

Oh my my favorite one of all the whole album Im in love with the MC

[@sparkie4eva]

one of the greatest songs ever made! sends a shiver down my spine!

[@HellToTheNoShow]

Orlando's voice infiltrates your being and extract a piece of your soul for a minute or two. Can't wait to see them 08/06/12

[@johnchesterman6016]

Holy sh one tee! First time I’ve seen this video!! I honestly don’t understand how the Maccabees didn’t rule the world!! What an amazing band!!

[@booyah8335]

This song is beautiful. Orlando's voice is breathtaking. Awesome guys :)

[@MotherTeresa456]

This is why The Maccabees are my favourite band and probably the reason I get so fucking obsessed with them for days upon end.

[@IPlayKindred]

this is the best song I have ever heard.

[@edwardlowe3014]

[@optimisticgambler3616]

[@flo15jo]

Oh, they create a great soundscape. Sparse, intense ..... Wish they had an official video for 'Unknow' which is magical. Just love the guitars.

[@knappafire]

Best album of the year ... by country mile. Unknow needs a video too.

[@melissat3977]

This song, his voice. Ethereal. It soars, and takes my heart with it.

[@AntonioGonzalez-hv4ii]

[@Coachtomsj]

not only because Marcus Mumford are fan of this band... :P that's only show how good taste of music Marcus have...but still thanks Marcus ;) ... I am more free from genre than ever before...and this band is so good...while you running, while studying...while you are living :)

[@ThePeaceAround]

this is my alltime fav of the maccabees

[@straybul2004]

yeah, glad ya caught that. agree totally with you. to get that much power out of repeating the scale is pretty creative.

[@space75gr]

imo, if one of the worst tracks of their album can work as an excellent single and get all those positive reviews, then you can imagine how the whole album sound. a really great band that getting better and better with every release.

[@polloyopa]

I love how just before the chorus the drums seem to go out of time and then come back just like that.

[@CoolstoryBro1988]

Love them!!!

[@arancook7334]

saw the maccas earlier in the year and they were amazing...this song is one of my favourites from given to the wild..nice to see that its getting a full release

[@AndrewLemonade]

"Hooold me close don't let me go there is something that I need to know "

[@AJLangford]

Really excellent album - one of the best of '12 for sure.

[@sugarlumps73]

[@sparkie4eva]
