The Connells "Steadman's Wake" [Official Lyric Video]

[@rgbordini1]

Damn, what a powerful song. So happy these guys are back with so much energy.

[@1flyrocha]

I was passed a Fun n Games cassette tape during class in 89....I haven't stopped listening since. See you at Skipper's in April!

[@PéterKorcsmáros]

Akárcsak a 74-75, ez is egy nagyon kiváló kis muzsika!!!!!)))))🙂👍🎸🥁🎹🎶🎶🎶

[@allosaurusfragilis7782]

They get their guitars sounding so good. Not heard anything since 74/75....really like this song though. It feels ominous and sad and scary all at once. Deserves a big audience.

[@jgcunnar]

Bringing the best R.E.M vibe forward to 2021 - outstanding stuff here!

[@daveh1822]

This song is REALLY GREAT.

[@phillipasby9202]

Great song - and Mike Ayers’s guitar work … just killing it

[@homerbrockner9406]

Album pre-ordered, tickets purchased, adrenalin peaked. The boys are back in town again! Potak is killing it!

[@kevinratliff3524]

Potak is the man!

[@scotlandsjard2836]

Such. A. MASTERPIECE !!! *-* even after many many repeated listenings, this songs stays as awesome as it was on first listening. Genius!! Love it so freakin' much...

[@Polonolo99]

Damn, I missed these guys.

[@someone-up2hg]

Doug sounds great on this song

[@lizgoldstein4256]

What a strong comeback this is. I must say I really dig the old stuff, as we all do, but this is an absolute masterpiece. Thank you so much for bringing out this new ear candy album.

I found The Connell’s from my father he loves them. Listens to them everyday. He has the fun and games album and Boylan heights. I love your music!

[@danielartist123]

Just wonderful! One of the best bands in the world!

[@6828Lu]

Breathtaking. Stunning. Fabulous. Just ... wow. Thank you for this song and for the entire album. It's like catching up with an old friend and finding they're even more awesome than you remembered.

[@kfrbnks1]

I've been playing this song over and over for like-four days.

[@michaelsnyder6922]

I think I can turn this into a bluegrass song

[@JM_Retired]

Been a fan since the 80s... Welcome back

[@dalejefferson9542]

Looking forward the album and seeing you in Atlanta.

[@betsalel9849]

Un vrai plaisir, merci... 👌🎶

[@thesithempire1348]

Outstanding!!! Up there with anything on Boylan Heights or Ring! The Connells are back, baby!! (And such great lyrics!)

[@mojoflo1989]

OMG im so happy to hear new Songs of you guys. Your music is magic!! Thank you!

[@xstanchillcott272]

Amen brother

[@jeancarlo3608]

The Connells my favorite band forever

[@georgeowens7046]

Great song from one of my favorite bands. Watched (Listened) to this video several times and just now realized the lighting changes and the scene slowly pans out during the video.

[@dtower1825]

Incredible! As soon as it started I knew it would be something special! What a song

[@mcleananderson4948]

Great song!

[@someone-up2hg]

My 7 and 9 year old can't get enough of this song...proud Connells fan sharing good music w/ next gen

[@bikeboyiv]

Saw them in Raleigh, NC in 2022. They have not lost a step. The new album is great.

[@susannaregister9317]

Fantastic. Been a fan since the Boylan Heights days!

[@rolemodlin]

So excited for this album. Been a fan since Boylan Heights. Saw them so many times between 1988 and 1994 that I lost count. Haven't seen them since they did a show in Nashville, NC several years ago.

[@keithjamesthomsonmusic9956]

Okay, I'm finally going to go and buy this album. This cut is great and instant classic The Connells

[@TheNewBreakers]

Mike and Mike always get good tones. Love the clear and also edge of breakup arpeggiated stuff.

[@dougbratton7309]

Man I am glad The Connells are back! Hope to see you you at the Stone Pony in the future. I think I was 19 the last time I saw you there. I'm a bit older now. 🤣

[@EsausHeel]

Killer song. Truly soul searching stuff. Get right with G-d. First the judgement, then the second death. Jesus Saves.

[@mikedonnelly66]

Outstanding song! I can’t wait for the full release in September

[@edc.2913]

Saw them first on the early nineties, now I'm 46, and they still rock, thank you for bringing back memories of my youth!!

[@marktalbott3835]

Oh you youngsters....

[@karenmonahan1842]

You never cease to amaze me. Thank you. Loved you since the Green Parrott in NJ.

[@adam-bailey]

This their best album to date i think.. amazing

[@merlinaudubon6202]

Southern gothic!

[@mtc4him201]

[@yvessimons2792]

Better than ever. Loved your show In Asheville this past month. This song is stunning.

[@wylde007]

So ready to see you guys on tour again.

[@agatqqa]

I Love it!

[@brentterry9946]

This was more than worth the wait. See you in Brooklyn!

Welcome back! Great song.

[@annamariaharle9381]

Absolutely How Can Even Say Fantastic And The Best Song I'm Crying At The Moment I'm Sad I' ve Been A Couples Days But I Really Wish I Coul See You See And Hear You With Someone I Love ( But I Don't Know About Him Or His Love For Me) But I Really Wish I Really Love This Song And The Place And Sounds EveryThing About You; I Send This Song For This Man I Hope Someday He Coud Be And Sing This Song For Me With You😪😪💞 I Really Love Yor Music With All Love Love Annamaria From Finland 😪🤗💞💙

[@rhondaduhon3066]

❤❤

[@timothyvanderschultzen9640]

Well crafted and enjoyable song.

[@DavidShockley]

DAMN! WELCOME BACK GUYS! You were one of my first concerts (EVER!) at The Boathouse in Norfolk Va. 1990's :)

[@roxio69]

My CD is shipped but I just received link to digital downloads. Listening to some of the new songs...so far it's a STELLAR release for the Connells. If I can offer a suggestion..I think one of the best tracks on album besides Stars and Steadman's wake is "Universal Glue"...driving song that I feel should be a single and get radio airplay. Hope the album does well...you certainly haven't let down your longtime fans..THE CONNELLS ARE BACK!

[@michaelhein8140]

SUUUUUPER, COOL🍺😊🇩🇪👌

Просто круто.🇷🇺🙏☀️💪👍👍👍

[@danschweers4641]

Oops! I meant "haunting", not hunting...

[@marktalbott3835]

Lol

[@undefinedlust]

As much as I love Doug, If Mike can sing like that.... keep bringing your A game Doug!!! :) \

[@rolemodlin]

That's Doug singing on this one.

[@undefinedlust]

@@rolemodlin yep. I blame the booze lol!

[@hanaman843]

They should have been as popular and succesful as REM back in the day!! Music just as good if not better!! Needed better management and promotion ~~~ 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🏳‍🌈🏳‍🌈🏳‍🌈🏳‍🌈🏳‍🌈🏳‍🌈🏳‍🌈🏳‍🌈🏳‍🌈

[@briantodd4887]

Glad Doug left the political lyrics based solely on the listener. Kudos. We all have perceptions...and they may differ...but that's totally the point....and should be embraced....as an independent thinker. Glad the Connells put out this album....saw them at the Music Farm in Charleston years back...amazing band without an ounce of glitter, bells or whistles.

[@scottguffey5809]

As a UVA graduate, I was initially taken aback, but know what you’re going for here. Good on ya. The “fine people” can’t be allowed to do this again.

[@marktalbott3835]

Anybody know the reference to Malvern Hill?

[@rocknjbindad3707]

I detect the dark slithering undertone of the drug epidemic here. Its open for interpretation, for sure.

[@dartmouthhoop]

"These fine people with baseball bats...."

[@jamesmiller3574]

Donny would not approve...Oh Well

[@DC2Ams]

Tells us what we hoped, The Connells, like all sane people, hate Trump.

[@christystaude4395]

​@@DC2AmsI love trump and also love the connells since one simple word. Trump never caused division.... You were told to.

[@PadgetCowan]

The one person with the thumbs down is simply wrong.

[@frustrateduser9933]

And the meme lives on

[@marktalbott3835]

Missing Peele.

[@jenniferkonstant5920]

Come back to Charlottesville! We're so much more and better than "those fine people."

[@DC2Ams]

Same protagonist as 'Sympathy For the Devil'?

[@fry9700]

The “fine people” quote loses its power when it’s in full context rather than cut and spliced dishonestly.

[@davidjenkins2691]

Grow up boys. We are the same age, guess go woke and go broke hasn't settled in yet. You can, and should, do better than 50 year olds trying to be REM part 2. Sad.

[@danschweers4641]

Wow! A hunting song, for sure...

[@marktalbott3835]

Errrrr.....what? A hunting song? Nope. Unless you're talking about hunting people.

[@danschweers4641]

@@marktalbott3835 Yeah, I know. My bad! Doggone my old fingers...

[@SyeJenPlus4]

Who's drumming for The Connells these days?

[@TheConnellsmusic]

Rob Ladd!

[@SyeJenPlus4]

Thanks for the tip👍

[@marktalbott3835]

What happened to Peele?

[@patrickcarney9177]

Wonderful!
