Do you know why I fucking love Bastille? Because they make music in 3 different styles (sometimes combined): A little bit rock (this song, the silence, the draw), a little bit electronic music (bad_news and many others) and ballads (Oblivion,..). For sure there is also a lot of pop.. I just LOVE the style of Bastille!!

If you want me to :) But I was planning on doing one anyway

Everytime I hear this song I picture a man who's ordered to kill someone close to him. He keeps on refusing, but eventually he gives in and does it. But he blames himself everyday, he cries, he asks himself why he did it and doesn't recognizes himself anymore. He has turned into a person that he doesn't know and that he hates. He feels disgusted with himself and in whom he has become. The person who ordered him to kill wants him to do it again, but this time he's strong and refuses. But the person can't take a no for an answer, so he sends men to beat him as a punishment (real men always thinking with our fists, my turn to be the victim), and eventually he dies, knowing that he'll go to hell, but happy to finish his horrible life and to put an end to the agony and disgust he feels.

If the world ever hear an angel speak, I'm sure it will have the voice of Dan Smith.

The song sounds absolutely amazing live. It shakes the room and you feel the song through your body and its just amazing!! And when sings the high notes live, it sounds better in a way. LOVE THIS SONG

Shout out from the bottom of my lungs A plague on both your houses This thing It’s a family affair It’s drawing out my weakness Big boys don’t cry They don’t ask why There was a time when a moment like this Wouldn’t ever cross my mind The sun will rise with my name on your lips ‘Cause everything will change tonight I want to be back on the ground Where my feet touch my shadow I want to dig my heels in the dirt Feel it break between all of my my toes Anything to stop floating ‘round Bring me down Back down below, oh, oh, oh, oh Take bread And push the anger down Try to remember calmness Big boys don’t cry They don’t ask why There was a time when a moment like this Wouldn’t ever cross my mind The sun will rise with my name on your lips ‘Cause everything will change tonight Hey now What’s the gravity upon your face So I’m the one who’s bleeding Real men Always thinkin’ with our fists My turn to be the victim Big boys don’t cry They don’t ask why There was a time when a moment like this Wouldn’t ever cross my mind The sun will rise with my name on your lips ‘Cause everything will change tonight There was a time when a moment like this Wouldn’t ever cross my mind The sun will rise with my name on your lips ‘Cause everything will change tonight

No actually, my mom read it somewhere and it is pretty obvious. In Bad Blood (The album) all the back-up vocals is Dan's voice over again (Exception of Pompeii, it has the guys from To Kill a King on it). The only contribution the other guys made I'm pretty sure is in the backing track/beat to the songs. The only exception of this I have heard is the whole band's line in the Band Aid 30 song... :/

Absol"RandomCat"ZoeyART well, when I saw them live, and I was pretty close to the front, the others were singing harmony, ahhaha

Listening to this song six years later, I still think it's very sexy of Bastille to write a song for Mercutio

The whole melody is so powerful.

remember that dan isnt the only one in the band. Chris, Kyle and William also put effort in producing the song, so congratulate the band as a whole not just the main singer

One of their best songs so far. Great track. Great talent. Best people.

Sounds like Bastille's older stuff. I'll either love some of the songs and hate others. I love how they're not turning the pop route that many bands do now. Keep making great music guys and pushing the boundaries!

All four of you deserve so much praise for not just this song but every song you've written covered and performed, not once have you ceased to impress and leave us wanting more. And I do mean all of you not JUST Dan, though not excluding either. All of you keep doing what you're doing because its working!

Maybe one day the rest of the band will get recognition from you fan girls. It's not just Dan y'know

Love this...

I'm still replaying Torn Apart nonstop! Guess I'll have 2 songs on replay nonstop for the next week. You guys never fail to deliver.

I think this song is about Romeo in Romeo and Juliet.. It's about his thoughts when he sees Juliet dead and is about to take his life. For starters, "a plague on both of your houses" was shouted from the bottom of mercutio's lungs before he died. "This thing, it's a family affair" references the capulet and montague feud "It's drawing out my weakness" - his weakness is that he would die for Juliet and not be caught up in the feud. "Big boys don't cry" - Romeo cries when he sees Juliet's 'corpse' "There was a time when a moment like this wouldn't ever cross my mind" - his thoughts on suicide, Juliet, etc. are crossing his mind, but when before he met her, they wouldn't. "The sun will rise with my name on your lips" references Juliet waking after Romeo kisses her and poisons himself "'Cause everything will change tonight" - the deaths of Romeo and Juliet end the feud between. Montague and Capulet The next two verses are probably Romeos thoughts on his anger, stress, etc. from all the deaths that he and Juliet have ultimately caused. "Real men, always thinkin with our fists" - a reference to the fights Romeo has gotten into with the Capulets "My turn to be the victim" - Romeo poisons himself

Bastille is my life, I just can't ❤❤❤

I literally love this, it fits in perfectly with their old tracks but still provides a clear development to their style. I'm in love

Omg. There is nothing better than this. I'm in love.

Really loving this rockier(?) feel, the guitar part is amazing. (The rest of the song isn't bad either. This goes with the film so well, really excited to see how it all fits together)

This band just keeps getting better and better
