Bloc Party - So Here We Are (2023 Video)

[markmagnolia]

silent alarm is one of the best records ever made

[kidswithbricks]

one of the greatest debut albums of all time.

I’m now 40 remembering listening to this song like it was yesterday, what a tune

[tspmcfarlane]

I just spotted something extremely random. At 1:35, the girls are dancing outside a row of shops. The shop pictured is in Glasgow (I walk past it from time to time) and it’s the shop used as Navid’s store in the legendary Scottish sitcom Still Game. Lots of scenes were filmed on that little bit of street too. Just a small piece of trivia for anyone interested haha. Anyway, great song!

[chalkeygas]

The video captures the British comprehensive secondary school experience. Feels like forever when you’re going through it but, 14 years since I took my GCSEs, I can’t believe how quickly it went

[yokkai]

This band will always have a quite important place in my heart.

I'm 55 and this ad campaign has me in tears. Seeing these children with their highs and lows, joys and pains, laughter and tears, brings me back to my youth, and reminds me to be more caring and forgiving of the children of today, because we were just like them once 🥲

[aysnea]

Freedom and foolishness.
Joy and melancholy.
Anticipation and hope.
Love and hate.
Fullness and emptiness.
Youth and bravery.

Thank you for everything, Block Party...

I began listening music in 77/78, but this is definitly one of the musics of my life!

[skutterbuster]

This song reminds me of the time i lost my wouldve been 20 this summer.
He was called Jak.
A little while later, my girl left too, Becci.
Never got over it
I miss them. 💔

It's so rare to see positive representations of British secondary school children in the media - I'm struggling to think of another one, what an fantastic video, timeless beautiful song - just perfect! Thank you!!

[Dextrous]

Timeless ♥ For the first half of the video, I was wishing that these were the memories I had of school. I'm glad they showed some of the anxieties, insecurities and hurtfulness. Much love to Bloc Party and all the kids out there! Don't let anyone tell you these are the best days of your life.

[TiredLessGary]

Silent alarm is one of the best albums ever. Amazing.

[TrueTeXch]

この曲の新MVを2023年に観ることができるなんて…
なんて幸せなんだろう。

[caesarblacc]

Jesus! All this time and the feels one gets when listening to the song never leaves! That day is tattooed in my memory, and when my memory fades, it will always be there.
Bloc Party to me is what Smashing Pumpkins was to my older brother.

[extraverse]

For those who don't know, this is the extended version of an ad that was made for EE (telecom company)

[anaisll]

I used to listen to Bloc Party when I was in highschool and I was a teenager. 18 years later I'm watching this video and crying my heart out. Thank you for everything, BP.

[benhall]

Oh my god. I love this song, I've loved this song for 18 years now. This video adds so much more meaning and relevence to the song. It brings it into the modern world whilst also reminding me of the feelings and growing pains I had when the song was first released.
Thank you Bloc Party.

[rosslangager]

The last minute of this song is sublime.

I hope a whole new generation (and maybe some older ones) discover this incredible band and the Silent Alarm album. Enjoy people
