The 1975 - Being Funny in a Foreign Language (Oct 14, 2022) Album • Page 34

A hundred percent this. Really don’t even have the slightest desire to return to the song again. BUT the article did say there is a big, dark 80s track so I’ll get one!!!

 

I like this song a fair bit, but it's mainly because I love Matt Healy's absurdly verbose ramblings, so I can't imagine someone who doesn't already like Matty or his lyricism really loving this song, which makes it a bit of an odd single choice.

 

I think the song is awesome

 

Has there been a lead 1975 single since Love Me that didn’t divide the fan base?

No

 

Man, I remember the first time “Love Me” dropped and it was a real “oh shit these boys leveled up” moment.

 

I hate half the lyrics on this song

 

I’ve heard the song once and probably will stay that way until the album drops. I liked what I heard though

 

you’re correct

 

Might be the first time I'm super into a band and try to restrain myself from listening to the single a bunch and actively not listen. I think the fact that their last two albums were so expansive, might be fun to hold off on the single (or try to) and have my first listen be mostly new, especially if this record is truly like how I think it will be

I'm excited anyway whatever I end up doing lol

 

Dozens of us!

 

I’m trying to do this but it’s really hard. I’m gonna hold off on future singles

 

Always hard to go in as blind as possible with 1975 records because the long rollouts get me so impatient. Will for sure take advantage of the shorter rollout this time and just sleep on future singles

 

"Give Yourself A Try" will forever be their best lead single. Should've been the anthem of a generation, though I get why "Love It If We Made It" ended up getting that designation off ABIIOR.

 

love that blistering guitar lead

 

When that one came out it immediately became one of my favorite 1975 songs and it still is.

 

Every single one of their lead singles has made me go “huh?” and then I like it a lot about 24 hours later.

 

Left ear leak will forever be in my heart

 

I love it because “Disorder” is legit one of the 10 greatest songs ever.

 

I’m old enough to remember this website melting down because the lead guitar riff was “too loud”

 

Didn’t someone have a theory you were supposed to listen with one head phone out or some shit?

 

Ok I’ve spent some time with the new track and have listened to it on my sound bar with the sub. My consensus is it’s very good. There’s also a lot more going on than I originally thought.

 

I've played the single more times than I'd like to admit. Had $5 UO rewards, so I got black galaxy vinyl.

 

I’m super excited for this record. I would love to hear more of the midwest-emo-type stuff they dabbled in on Notes.

 

Highly recommend everyone check out 'Pictures of Us' on the new Beabadoobee album. Co-written by Matty and was originally for DLID. Midwest emo sound.

 

Yeah, it’s great. Bea and Matty work really well together - would love to see her on some 1975 stuff.
