  • Don’t Blame Me, out now on all streaming platforms.
    Directed and edited by James Marriott
    Cinematography by Owen Rogers and Ribena Ballerina
    LYRICS:
    You touch me too softly
    And I know what that means
    That you don't really love me
    As morose as it seems
    When I leave
    I'll pull on the last of our strings
    And you'll see
    That there's always the next thing
    There's always the next thing
    I'm cutting our ties
    That's all I can do
    Don't blame me
    Don't act surprised
    It's only for you
    The best of our times
    Were the worst of your life
    Tell me who you're lying to
    Cover your eyes
    But peer through the lines
    Cause when I cry
    It's only for you
    All I did was agree
    To mask all the missteps
    For our chemistry
    Was it all you had dreamed?
    Was I all you hate but you knew that I'd be
    I'm cutting our ties
    That's all I can do
    Don't blame me
    Don't act surprised
    It's only for you
    The best of our times
    Were the worst of your life
    Tell me who you're lying to
    Cover your eyes
    But peer through the lines
    Cause when I cry
    It's only for you
    No this path never stops
    And I'm already sick
    Of the next mountain top
    No this high couldn't last
    In a moment it'll move on
    And stay in the past
    We were never in love
    So when we were fucking who were you thinking of?
    No I'm never enough
    And I'll fall from your hands
    Straight into your gloves
    No this path never stops
    And I'm already sick
    Of the next mountain top
    No this high couldn't last
    In a moment it'll move on
    And stay in the past
    We were never in love
    So when we were fucking who were you thinking of?
    No I'm never enough
    And I'll fall from your hands
    Straight into your gloves

    1:09 - 1:21 Never get tired of the cinematography choice of jump cuts to move in space on the beat, particularly when it’s done as well as it was here. Great lyrics, vocals and instrumentals, James; this and Grapes are my favorites of yours so far! Looking forward to the new album!!!

    @katelynwallwork2434 Před 10 měsíci +202

    I feel like a lot of more 'modern' and 'pop' songs are completely missing the bridge in the songs but James never disappoints. It's a similar style to the king of Leons or the killers. From the dissonance to James using his head voice to access those more vulnerable sounding tones. It's just amazing, please come to Brisbane soon

  • @feathertails
    @feathertails Před 6 měsíci +37

    this is my favorite bit of lyricism:
    "No this path never stops
    And I'm already sick
    Of the next mountain top
    No this high couldn't last
    In a moment it'll move on
    And stay in the past"
    What a perfect way to describe that feeling of desperate depression where you excuse any moment of happiness as fleeting and gone, and dismiss the possibility of it ever coming back, irrationally thinking that it will "stay in the past" forever. Exhausted from having to climb mountains to reach a high you don't really care about anymore. That's how those words resonate with me anyway, especially right now.

    i know many people wont see this, but i want to say thank you james. your music and fandom/ community has been a genuine turning point in my life for the better. i would not be alive if it wasnt for you all. this is the one true community where i can feel at home, accepted and loved, allowed to cry and be soothed when needed. i havent had many to none interactions with any other fans, but i feel in a family ive never had.

    Another banger James. It repeatedly surprises me how you can go from a silly little guy reacting to tik-toks on stream, to such a talented singer, director.

    I think I ended up listening to this song for 5 hours straight. Somehow your lyrics feel so personal and really get me to feel something. Your expertise in song making is improving at an insane rate, I fear the next one I’ll never be able to stop listening to.

    The high notes? The music video? The rage? Holy fuck yes please!! I can't get enough of the "so when we were fucking who were you thinking of" scene, cause the way James looks at the camera makes me feel guilty as if I did something. It's so fucking good and feels so real
