    I was there and this doesn't do it justice. Her voice, live, was piercing, it was so awesome. You don't get the kick of the performance through CZcams. All the reverb, the effects and the vibe was stellar. Glad they won, they deserved it!

    Will never forget when I went to a wolf alice concert and Ellie and Joel went to eat at this fast food place infront of the venue while everyone was in line before the show and we were all just watching in amazement from across the street, only like 2 people went to say hi because we didn't want to bother them but they waved at us and after the show Theo came out to talk with fans and sign our stuff, my point is that they are such a wonderful and creative humble band (also Ellie is fucking badass she threw herself into the crowd at one point) they truly deserve this award

    Fans of this song: I really recommend you listen to a podcast they did with Song Exploder which explains the making of it. Went through so many iterations, and you get to hear Ellie's vocal demos and the band's experimentations with synths. I loved the song beforehand but now hear it so differently knowing the turns they took.

      They are really good at writing beautiful songs in a variety of different styles. The future? Not quite.
      The future of pop rock radio, for sure. The future of music in general, as in pushing the medium forward, to places as yet unheard, no.
      I understand that this comment sounds assy, but it’s meant to instill, in you as well as all other readers, a desire to search the deeper realms of modern music. There is a LOT of incredible music being made right now, but very little of it is showing up in award ceremonies, and even less of it shows up on the airwaves.
      That being said, Wolf Alice is a band that everybody can enjoy, and thats petty rare anymore in it’s own right.

    • @Anonymous-kt6fs

      Maybe before the Mercury Prize jury decided on a winner, they should have looked into each nomination playing live. As that is the future of music. While they might sound solid on record, this is only ok. Future of music it is not.

    Lyrics
    I see the signs of a lifetime, you 'til I die
    And I'm swiftly out, Irish goodbye
    What if it's not meant for me?
    Love
    What if it's not meant for me?
    Love
    I'd like to get to know you
    I'd like to take you out
    We'd go to The Hail Mary
    And afterwards make out
    Instead, I'm typing you a message
    That I know I'll never send
    Rewriting old excuses
    Delete the kisses at the end
    When I see you, the whole world reduces
    To just that room
    And then I remember and I'm shy
    That gossip's eye will look too soon
    And then I'm trapped, overthinking
    And yeah, probably self-doubt
    You tell me to get over it
    And to take you out
    But I can't, I'm too scared
    And here's the night bus, I have to go
    And the doors are closing, and you were waving
    And I like you, and I'll never let it show
    And you won't wait, and maybe I won't mind
    I work better on my own
    And now I'm home, a little bit drunk
    And I ask myself
    What if it's not meant for me?
    Love
    What if it's not meant for me?
    Love
    A few days pass since I last saw you
    And you've taken over my mind
    I'm retelling jokes you made that made me laugh
    Pretending that they're mine
    I wanna tell the whole world about you
    I think that that's a sign
    I'm losing self-control and it's you
    It really is, 1000 times
    I look at your picture and I smile
    How awful's that? I'm like a teenage girl
    I might as well write all over my notebook
    That you rock my world
    But you do, you really do
    You've turned me upside down
    And that's okay, I'll let it happen
    'Cause I like having you around
    I'm electric, a romantic cliché
    Yeah, they really are all true
    When we catch eyes at that stupid party
    I know exactly what to do
    I'll take your hand, and we will leave
    French exits from me and you
    And now I'm home, a little bit drunk
    Some things don't change, and I know now
    Me and you were meant to be
    In love
    Me and you were meant to be
    In love
    Me and you
    I see the signs of a lifetime, you 'til I die
