This song is about the utter emptiness of getting everything you ever wanted, and of realizing that your hunger is infinite, while anything that might satiate that hunger for a little while is finite.

James Murphy is not losing his edge.

Wtf? This is seriously the best music I've heard in a while

This song has torn me open and exposed my soul. "But that's okaaaaaay..."

I was very impressed when Soundsystem took a moment in their concert to honour the late GREAT Maestro Angelo Badalamenti by playing two of his most famous Twin Peaks works. Well done, gentlemen! RIP Maestro.

I LOVE THIS BAND. Please, PLEASE keep making smart, original, creative, atypical music. You might not save music, but you might just save me.

Damn Murphy despite his age still has his finger right on the pulse of the modern mental crisis One of the few musical poets just aging like wine

This song to me is about self-destruction, yearning for love, and growing older. It captures exactly how I felt when I was working through PTSD and doing drugs, BDSM, and one night stands.

Music is my only reprieve from this reality we live in anymore. Bless your soul, James Murphy.

To me, this is a wistful, sort of melancholy song about blaming all your problems on the world and wasting your life on dreams that aren't real. Does anyone else get that feeling?

I'm so in love with this song.

I can’t just listen to this once. It’s a song you listen to 2-10 times a session.

Murphy's Law. He deconstructs all the best parts of Earth's historical musical canon, fucks it about and comes up with his own utter unique and sublime beauty. Best mid life crisis tune ever.

this song really speaks volumes, about how simplicity can almost bring you to tears. I seriously listen to it about 10 times a day. I go to a different place when i hear it, a lot like "right where it belongs" by NiN

I'm so glad that it's been 2 years and this song is still underrated. It's like I want to keep it for myself lol.

'You just suck at self-preservation versus someone else's pain' Yes. Yes, I do.

God damn, it's so rare to have my expectations exceeded like this. Superb production, amazing song.

dear god this song is actual perfection how is it that i can listen to it on repeat and not get sick of it?

Their performance on SNL blew me away. I watched it 20 times that night. It was great. I AM sick in head, and I DO suck at self-preservation. Love!

James! my boy I'm a straight up cannibal corps and slayer die hard fan but your music fawkn hit me right where it needed to ...to allow my love of my life come in ...hats off to you ..beautiful music

I now have an idea of what it's like to grow older with a sad heart. Just through music, James is a legend. ;(

This album is either incredibly catchy or depressing as hell. Love it

I cry to this song and it feels good.

This song makes me cry right when it starts. The only other song that does that to me is everything will be alright by the killers.

"find the place where you can be boring where you won't need to explain that you're sick in the head and you wish you were dead or atleast instead of sleeping you'd prefer your own bed" is such a haunting lyric to me because it's like i wrote it myself. it's terrifying. it perfectly sums up a point in my (pretty toxic) relationship with this girl i used to be friends with and partly why it ended. so many words in this song seem so identical to different points in my life. it feels so personal.

Gives a nostalgic feeling.

Now a days good music is so underrated. This song right here is a masterpiece and a deserve a lot of attention.

Amazing dark synth sound here. Shades of Bowie, and OMD. You can here the influences of these two on this track. Think Bowie's 'Sound and Vision', and OMD's track 'Souvenir'.

The same bittersweet melancholy nostalgia that Andromeda gave me. It's like going back to the house of your childhood and sleeping in the bed you've spent 16 years of your life in.

So I'm laying here in bed staring at a blank ceiling listening to this song and I start to slip into a full existential crises while a single tear starts crawling slowly down my cheek. Dude. James. It's Thursday. I gotta work in the morning... or do I... or do any of us... what are we... why are we... James! I'm slipping man, I'm slipping!

"It's a drug of the heart and you can't stop the shaking 'Cause the body wants what it's terrible at taking, oh" Holy shit these lyrics are awesome and the music is god like

Forever broken. Song is depressingly relatable even 7 years later

Such a brilliant song, made my day more tolerable.

I've had songs stuck in my head before, but this is the first song to be stuck in my heart

I cried, I wept like some grandmother. I wanted to tear my teeth out; I didn't know what I wanted to do! And I want to remember it. I never want to forget it... I never want to forget. And then I realized... like I was shot... like I was shot with a diamond... a diamond bullet right through my forehead. And I thought, my God... the genius of that!

This is absolutely mesmerizing.

Lyrics Wake up with somebody near you And at someone else's place You took acid and looked in the mirror Watched the beard crawl around on your face Oh, the revolution was here That would set you free from those bourgeoisie In the morning everything's clearer When the sunlight exposes your age But that's okay And that's okay Grab your clothes and head to the doorway If you dance out, no one complains Find the place where you can be boring Where you won't need to explain That you're sick in the head and you wish you were dead Or at least instead of sleeping here you prefer your own bed, come on You just suck at self-preservation Versus someone else's pain So you feel drained And insane And insane He was leather and you were screaming Swinging chains against the stage And you couldn't know he was leaving But now more will go with age, you know So get up and stop your complaining You know that you're the only one who's been destroying all the fun Look what happened when you were dreaming Then punch yourself in the face So you kiss and you clutch but you can't fight that feeling That your one true love is just awaiting your big meeting So you never even asked for names You just look right through them as if you already came It's a drug of the heart and you can't stop the shaking Cause the body wants what it's terrible at taking, oh And you can't remember the meaning But there's no going back against this California feeling Dream (Sha-bang, sha-bang) American dream (Sha-bang, sha-bang) American dream (Sha-bang, sha-bang) American dream (Sha-bang, sha-bang)

I want to wake up to someone somebody near me, and at someone else's place. This song is so raw. I can see this being a song that two people listen to 20 years from now, and them remembering their first time sleeping together, and then they slowly dance in the night to their memories of that night when they were young, reckless, lovers. They have found their place to be boring, with each other, to this song.

This feels like the most relatable song I've ever heard.

Honestly, this might be one of their best songs. I get the verse melody stuck in my head for weeks at a time.

this is such a beautiful song... it takes me to a lot of places i've never been before

I watched them perform on SNL and fell in love with this song 😍😍😍😩 it's so good!!

This song reminds me of the look he had on his face in Shut up and Play the Hits when he looked in the mirror the morning after the final show. A bittersweet realization that "i may have made a mistake."

I could waltz with my true love to this. Somewhere she is listening. My shuffling is on repeat. It is her embrace I am whistling.

How could sounds like a song of morrisey with synths? like perfection

My best friend Jazmin showed me this song, I don’t really listen to it too often, but i shuffled my music today and this song was the first one that played and I just remembered the good times, the long night drives on those cold days, our drives every summer day drinking Starbucks with an extra venti cup of water mine with no ice lol cause it was hot as fuck, smoking and eating a smoked bacon sandwich having random conversations, talking about our love life, our fantasies, dreams, sad moments. I remember you always had a smile on your face even if you were going thru some hard shit. And with this song, as soon as it starts, that’s how I remember you, smiling and I remember your “ugly laugh” like you used to call it. But now, this year things are different, we’re going on separate ways, I’m not quite sure why you decided to just not talk to me anymore, I can think of something but not exactly why. I understand, maybe it’s good for you to be away from me, maybe you’re better without me. Maybe you found a new best friend. Idk, but you’ll always have a special place in my heart, I will always love you and I miss you, and I hope you can think of me every now and then like I think of you. Thanks for being my best friend for so many years! You made me really happy. I’m sure you won’t see this comment but I had to let it out. I love you Juanita

Berlin era Bowie is still with us, ladies and germs

this production is impeccable

Fell in love with this song immediately! hit replay so many times I can't stop listening to this

This is one of the best songs ever.

Didn't know what to expect from this, but it still managed to surprise me. It's a genuinely beautiful song. Everything about it is perfect.

you broke my heart on my morning commute, and i shed a tear in front of strangers who never knew why

when the single came out I just couldn't wrap my head around the mastery packed in this record. I really didnt like it and could only listen to call the police. Fast forward 2 years and now this is my favorite LCD song. it's so insanely good ot just needed some time after planting the seed in me to grow.

"Look a what happened when you were dreaming" it means a lot to me

The record spin syncs up *almost* perfectly with the song.

I remember listening to this track when I would go and leave school back in 2017. Completely forgot about this song until I randomly remembered a lyric. The song is comforting to me now even though I feel I understand the lyrics now.

Authentic Masterpiece. It always comes back to your head and you slowly realize how godly good this is

I've had this on constantly, totally on repeat, it's such a beautiful song! It reminds me of something amazing out of the '80s!

Beautiful! It's already playing on repeat.

i love his voice so much 😍

the sound of this music is awesome, love it...

Loving the new stuff, also one of the best live performers of our time.

This is such a sad song, so beautiful.

This song haunts me for days after I listen to it. It's so consuming and entrancing and I love it.

It's officially confirmed that 2017 is gonna be a year full of good music

Saw them live in Miami on this tour. I’ll never forget it. Dreams. Honestly

most beautiful song i’ve ever heard in my life

Love this song. So lucky to see them last week in London.

lcd sound system and 009 sound system are the best!

I wish i was strong enough to cry to this song

oh, so this is what it feels like when your soul drifts away to heaven...

I can't stop listening to this. It's totally sticky but in a good way. Amazing

I like the, "someone else's pain," lyric. I hope this is part of a brilliant album.

cant stop this song from playing constantly in my head. don't want to. tap the rhythm on everything. jesus f christ. So Good

Wish I could have played this at my ten year reunion and watch all the people I graduated with slow dance around their own regrets.

Discovered you guys on SNL...was blown away......you've got a new fan.

Damn this is beautiful.

Man, the first hit got me like im melting in my own bed

Enter into a nostalgic free fall with this track. That synth takes over your breathing pulse and body. Feeling something deep nerves mellow, skin tingles.

This is so good i can already picture this song in every tv show😍❤

Just wow ! Pure emotions

So glad to be getting new LCD music, waited so long for this

This is beautiful in the first two bars. Like love, and sadness, and loss, and the beach, and candy. Specifically, fine chocolate. And dream sleep.

I like the music, the beat, and the voice.

somehow reminds me of Twins Peak scene with James singing all the way back then :D Don't know how to feel about that

Just a gem to listen to! Love Your distinctive and so recognizable voice and the beat it's wrapped in!

James, this is seriously too good. "So you kiss and you clutch but you can't fight that feeling/That your one true love is just awaiting your big meeting" I. Feel. This. Lyric. So. Much. TT_TT

This is so beautiful. Pure quality...

Wow! Totally worth the wait. Human League with a heart. Roll on Splendour.

Who else feels this nails life on the head.

So thankful for music..

A brilliant single on both sides but this one is the one. It's gorgeous

i love this song, Tthnks LCD, i live in México, and i travelled 900 kilometers to enjoy the band in Monterrey and everything was great.

Those first few seconds (before that jarring wave of sound) really completes this song for me. A shame that version is not on spotify.

Saw this live last night at Ottawa Bluesfest as the rain was falling and it was incredible!

This is the perfect song 😭💜

Amazing track for decades to come.

cannot hear this without crying

Breathtaking

Davvero emozionante!
