I’m listening in 2024

Listening in '24
2037 for me
The scourge question of CZcams. Live your life.
‘’The weight of your kiss seemed ambiguous’’
What a line
The noughties indie music scene was sublime
Absolutely x we peaked as a species
Sam Fender bringing it back
One of the most underrated lyricists in years. It just hits different
singer has a punchable face though
Still listening to this banger from my childhood in 2023 🔥🙌👏💖🙌
This is still fire in 2024🔥
ist 2020 and the flashbacks are REAL!
Best feeling when u finally find that song u were looking for ages
Gave me goosebumps listening to it again after nearly 5 or 10 years. I used to play it on guitar with my best friend in a different life...
Hope this new life isn't too hard ♥️
Did you use to talk about girls who play guitars?

Magic song. Not many bands(people) can write lyrics line this. Was never huge popular right ? But ultimate interpretation of this song as a classic Irish ballad so engrained in my head my mission is to get Christy Moore to record it. You get me now?!
UNDERRATED.... Amazing Song
I agree
Not by me :-)
Unbelievable. Billingham genius.
I will love it for ever!
Increíble 👏👏👏👏🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱
Only heard this gem this morning, listening to them all day ....unreal 👏
Underrated band in my opinion but music changes so fast these days
singer has a punchable face though
I’ve rediscovered this song after 13 years... Brings all the feels! Amazing lyrics, melodic tune. Fantastic voice and accent, just perfect! Once saw them in Montreal, many moons ago... now I would go back and relive again and again.
LOVE that beautiful Newcastle accent from the lead singer!! Keep it up!
This song reminds me of childhood so much, remember this tune being played on the radio every morning before school.
Always remember seeing a poster for a gig at Uni mid 2000's with Maximo Park for £7.50, glanced it, walked past, didn't go in, regret it every time I listen to them
always a big fan of this band as they hail from my part of the uk but this is by far their best tune - so poignant
Might be my favourite song ever. The lyrics are so clever & hit me straight in the feels.
This song pops into my head from time to time, there's something incredible about it that I can't put my finger on
Makes me feel nostalgic for the mid to late 2010's.😢
its impossible to sit still during this song.
Bill Smith Yet, somehow I managed to do it.
I discovered this band in 2016. They are incredible with those poetic lyrics and catchy melodies. This song always touches my heart in a very different way. That feeling cannot be expressed. I am really thankful for this band💌
"Why does every let down have to be so thin?"💓
It's so weird, Maximo Park just bring back memories...vague memories. I don't know why though!
nostalgia
nostalgia of what?
Because their lyrics are unbelievable. If not genuine nostalgia, just sheer relation to the words.
spotify randomly had this in one of my daily mixes, it was the first time I heard this since 2009 or ‘10. my best friend at the time gave me a mix cd for christmas and this was the first song!
now i’m hooked, it takes me way back to my teenage years ❤️
@@puccini4 the smiths maybe? This is basically a song performed in their style. The lead guitar has Johnny Marr's influence written all over it, not to mention a set of brooding lyrics
I had this song about 8 years ago, yesterday came into my mind, it feels the same
Brilliant song!
skunk39 I listened to this a lot on public transit around 2009-10, it became an addiction. The perfect song for walking in a big city ! Still has all the urgency and slick symmetry about it .... it’s really a masterpiece.
This is amazing. I'm on my 24th replay.
Was a fan when they first appeared on the music scene. The songs still sound as good as ever. Great band, enjoying singing along!
When I discovered this band a few years ago, I thought I might have overlooked it in the 80’s when obsessed with INXS, REM and the like. Mixes great with fine pop rock of that era and draws heavily from that influence. Never tire of it, great energy and lyrics.
Remember when this band first came out, great band and this song still gives me shivers and I'm 50yrs old now. Love them.
2020 and still amazing
Oh dear.. my youth right there right here, Instant flashbacks hearing this iconic song. But sooo long 😱
Okt 2023 ❤
I've got to say...my favourite song of all time!!
Never thought you could make a song about spending evenings unpacking books from boxes. But they did it.
Beautiful song.
Heard this song yesterday in a small cafe in Dublin ❤ didn’t thought of this song for such a long time! Now it’s on my playlist 😍 Loved it back then and still do!
One of my favourite ever songs!
this song never gets old
Love this song, will be watching and listening to this for years to come....
God damn this is an amazing song. The bridge is like a tribute to Johnny Marr.
The intro to the song really does resemble Johnny Marr’s style of playing.
Oh, take me to the bridge.
Love song for a long lost friend. Time passes and you grow apart, but it's hard without a break up, there is no closure. We would've gone to a Maximo Park concert back in 2012, but decided not to, can't remember why.
They're such an amazing band. First listenend to them back in 2005 when I was living in Newcastle. Love them.
My absolute favourite live, Paul Smith is such a joy to see on stage.
Underrated and under appreciated band!
Probably better to be that way, not sell-out, just the music is appreciated. No egos, no "celeb status"...if I had a modicum of their talent I'd want it to be like that.
My father always heard this song when i was 2 years old and when im listening this song i feel like a child again...
Found my old skate playlist from when I was like 14 and it had maximo park in it 😭 nostalgia hitting hard
Please share your playlist or offer suggestions❤❤🥺
So good to hear this again, wonderful song‼️🎶🎵
This album literally changed my life, went to Northumbria uni in 2007 thru clearing pretty much because of how much i was into this band!
We saw them Freevolution festival in Newcastle in 2007, absolutely incredible. Were you there?
My greatest band discovery on 2019
Love this song. The chorus is such fun to sing along.
Memories from 2007, Maximo Park! Went to see them in December 2007. Good times, was 19 back then
I'm still giving it a listen every now and then, mainly cos they used to practice in our kitchen, but also there's some damn good tunes in there.
It was on my first MP3 player and I Iistened to it a lot when I was a child. Remembers me
Maximo were ahead of their time
Still listing in 2023 and keep beating the sun
classic. big nostalgia feels on this one!
i am completely in love with this song.
Still immense in 2021 It is bequeathed.
[Verse 1]
Night falls
And towns become circuit boards
We can beat the sun as long as we keep moving
From the air
Stadium lights stand out like flares
And all I know is that you're sat here right next to me
We rarely see
Warning signs in the air we breathe
Right now I feel each and every fragment
This paper trail leads right back to you…
You say you need me to step outside
[Chorus]
You spent the evening unpacking books from boxes
You passed me up so as not to break a promise
Scattered polaroids and sprinkled words around your collar
In the long run, you said you knew that this would happen
[Verse 2]
This is something new
But it turns out it was borrowed, too
"why does every letdown have to be so thin?"
Rain explodes
At the moment that the cab door closed
I feel the weight upon your kiss; ambiguous
You have to leave. I appreciate that
But I hate when conversation slips out of our grasp
[Chorus]
You spent the evening unpacking books from boxes
You passed me up so as not to break a promise
Scattered polaroids and sprinkled words around your collar
In the long run, you said you knew that this would happen
[Bridge](x2)
Two bodies in motion
This is a matter of fact
It wasn't built to last
[Chorus]
You spent the evening unpacking books from boxes
You passed me up so as not to break a promise
Scattered polaroids and sprinkled words around your collar
In the long run, you said you knew that this would happen
[Outro]
The pounding rain continued it's bleak fall
And we decided just to write after all
After all
The pounding rain continued it's bleak fall
And we decided just to write after all
DjSk3tch Thanks you
That was long
I was sixteen when this came out, and now I'm stuck here listening to them, it brings so many flashbacks. Such a nice feeling
Love the singing in a Geordie accent 😊
Just can never get enough of these after all these years... still get that same buzzy feeling they’re INCREDIBLE!
Great band. Deserve more recognition. Brilliant lyrics.
Mellow and poignant...so underrated. Love these guys, great melodies and so well crafted. Maximo Park...lyrics ❤️
Just realised how much I love this song
Great song, great lyrics, great band. Nuff said.
Oh, how I LOVE this song! I still remember, when I first heard it, more than 10 years ago now (which makes me feel nostalgic ...). Maximo Park really is one of the few bands who have their own, unique sound - in the best way I could imagine.
Got any suggestions?

Duncan Lloyd... what a fantastic guitarist. They are such a fantastic band.
Great song, glad I found it!
Still a banger
One of their best songs.
Saw these guys live. Amazing.
Brought this when it first came out, just rediscovered it a few weeks ago, now being played daily. Brilliant yet sadly underrated track.
Great song. "I feel the weight upon your - ambiguous". One of the best lines ever written!
Been listening to this since it was released on the NME album years ago, amazing!
I found this completely by accident cause my speech to text auto corrected to this, and honestly I'm not disappointed. This is awesome
Just wondering, what was the original search?
Wowww this song come to my mind... Give me old memories 😎🥺 i enjoyed this song traveling
