The 1975 - All I Need To Hear
Recorded live at Real World Studios, supported by YouTube Music
Being Funny In A Foreign Language
The new album. Out now
Lyrics

I get out my records when you go away
When people are talking, I miss what they say
Because it all means nothing my dear
If I can't be holding you near
So tell me you love me, that’s all that I need to hear
I sit in my kitchen
with nothing to eat
With so many friends I don’t want to meet
I don’t need music in my ears
I don’t need the crowds and the cheers
Just tell me you love me, that's all that I need to hear
I’ve been told so many times before
But hearing it from you m
eans much more
So much more
Reply to my message
Pick up my calls
You see, I wrote you a letter
It was no use at all
Oh, I don’t care if you’re insincere
Just tell me what I want to hear
You know where to find me
The places where we’ve lived all t
hese years
Tell me you love me, that’s all I need to hear

Special thanks to the whole team at Real World Studios

[RobertIDK]

First dances at weddings will never be the same after this banger

[nostallgixs]

I‘m so in love with this era it feels like this is the most honest and happy they’ve ever been. Such a beautiful group of guys..eternally thankful they’ve found their chosen family in each other and I can’t wait for this album I think it’s going to be the most wholesome one yet.

[charlottelyons]

I love how this song is so raw and real, no flashy effects, no big performance, it hits just right, the intro was perfect I loved how authentic it was... no smoke and mirrors, just honesty! Even more excited for the album 🤩

[marcos_.]

Let's be honest, after all the singles we heard, we can surely say that "Being Funny In A Foreign Language" is probably their best work.

[Bilsed]

This has 'If I Believe You' vibes. Love it. Probably my favorite song so far from the album.

[Rurouniken]

Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Get out my records
When you go away
People are talking
I miss what they say

[Chorus]
See it all means nothing, my dear
If I can't be holdin' you near
So tell me you love me
'Cause that's all that I need to hear

[Verse 2]
I sit in my kitchen
With nothing to eat
With so many friends I
I don't wanna meet

[Chorus]
'Cause I don't need music in my ears
I don't need the crowds and the cheers
Oh, just tell me you love me
'Cause that's all that I need to hear

[Bridge]
And I've been told so many times before
But hearin' it from you means much more
So much more

[Verse 3]
Reply to my message
And pick up my calls
You see, I wrote you a letter
It was no use at all

[Chorus]
And oh, I don't care if you're insincere
Just tell me what I wanna hear
You know where to find me
The place where we lived all these years, oh
And tell me you love me
That's all that I need to hear
Oh, tell me you love me
That's all that I need to hear

[ILikeItWhenYouSleep]

This song feels like I'm sitting at a cafe at night, watching the city lights and feeling content.

[kvpilots]

I just got into this band three weeks ago and I really like them. This is art.

[francesalexandra]

matty explaining how he has been in this band longer than he has been alive is so heart-melting.

[vica]

This title of this song is how I’m feeling about the entire album, cause honestly Being funny in a foreign language is all I need to hear.

[morris]

it's the "i don't care if you're insincere
just tell me what i need to hear. "

it's giving me the point of view of the person behind the be my mistake. i don't know, it's just soothing and gentle and full of drama

[hannahh.]

I have a feeling that this song will be criminally underrated.

[hannahh.]

This is probably the most sincere love song they‘ve written thus far.

[ameliaroyani]

my very first year as the 1975 fan and this era is literally perfection

edit: wow you guys are soooo sweet 🥺❤️ ahhh im so glad reading your comments, thank u!!

[laraj]

Silence in the house. Two lovers, absolutely adoring each other, in cozy home clothes. Exhausted by hugs and completely happy. No need to pretend, no smart words are needed, only sweet laziness, a bit humor, some food and the love.
Thank you, The 1975, a very beautiful, sincere, intimate, heartfelt thing, in your best style!💘 The lyrics and the video are high class again!🎬💥🆒💯

[bettycarol]

I decided the first time I heard this song that it would be my first dance at my wedding with my husband. Now today is my parents’ anniversary and my mom’s talking about how she’s been married longer than she’s been alive. This band means everything to me. And because of that this band also means everything to my mom, so, thank you.

[hannahmooney]

The 1975 create such beautiful and meaningful art. They’re all so talented in what they create and Matty pulls it off so perfectly!

[sbabybluez]

I love when they hit with some soul. It's got that same feel as If I Believe You.

[itsalltakenup]

Oh man.. from the first chords, you can tell it's gonna be beautiful.

[LRM]

This is solid. Their slower stuff isn’t my favorite but they pull it off well so I give credit where credit is due. Their more upbeat dance-type music is what I love about them. Or whenever they get weird, I like that as well.
