I was there and this doesn't do it justice. Her voice, live, was piercing, it was so awesome. You don't get the kick of the performance through KZread. All the reverb, the effects and the vibe was stellar. Glad they won, they deserved it!

Now I know how much autotune and editing is on this track. sad.

God she sounds incredible. Those high chest belts!! Forget those few shaky notes at the beginning. For they no longer exist in my mind. And she looks beautiful. What a great band. Congrats on the win!

Will never forget when I went to a wolf alice concert and Ellie and Joel went to eat at this fast food place infront of the venue while everyone was in line before the show and we were all just watching in amazement from across the street, only like 2 people went to say hi because we didn't want to bother them but they waved at us and after the show Theo came out to talk with fans and sign our stuff, my point is that they are such a wonderful and creative humble band (also Ellie is fucking badass she threw herself into the crowd at one point) they truly deserve this award

After show in nashville, ellie and theo stayed out to talk to us. Theo is so outgoing. Ellie was so sweet. It was great meeting the band that changed my life.

Fans of this song: I really recommend you listen to a podcast they did with Song Exploder which explains the making of it. Went through so many iterations, and you get to hear Ellie's vocal demos and the band's experimentations with synths. I loved the song beforehand but now hear it so differently knowing the turns they took.

Absolutely brilliant. Ellie has so much power in her voice that it reminds me of Dolores O’Riordan. Powerhouse with an amazing band to back her up.

They are really good at writing beautiful songs in a variety of different styles. The future? Not quite. The future of pop rock radio, for sure. The future of music in general, as in pushing the medium forward, to places as yet unheard, no. I understand that this comment sounds assy, but it’s meant to instill, in you as well as all other readers, a desire to search the deeper realms of modern music. There is a LOT of incredible music being made right now, but very little of it is showing up in award ceremonies, and even less of it shows up on the airwaves. That being said, Wolf Alice is a band that everybody can enjoy, and thats petty rare anymore in it’s own right.

Maybe before the Mercury Prize jury decided on a winner, they should have looked into each nomination playing live. As that is the future of music. While they might sound solid on record, this is only ok. Future of music it is not.

Lyrics I see the signs of a lifetime, you 'til I die And I'm swiftly out, Irish goodbye What if it's not meant for me? Love What if it's not meant for me? Love I'd like to get to know you I'd like to take you out We'd go to The Hail Mary And afterwards make out Instead, I'm typing you a message That I know I'll never send Rewriting old excuses Delete the kisses at the end When I see you, the whole world reduces To just that room And then I remember and I'm shy That gossip's eye will look too soon And then I'm trapped, overthinking And yeah, probably self-doubt You tell me to get over it And to take you out But I can't, I'm too scared And here's the night bus, I have to go And the doors are closing, and you were waving And I like you, and I'll never let it show And you won't wait, and maybe I won't mind I work better on my own And now I'm home, a little bit drunk And I ask myself What if it's not meant for me? Love What if it's not meant for me? Love A few days pass since I last saw you And you've taken over my mind I'm retelling jokes you made that made me laugh Pretending that they're mine I wanna tell the whole world about you I think that that's a sign I'm losing self-control and it's you It really is, 1000 times I look at your picture and I smile How awful's that? I'm like a teenage girl I might as well write all over my notebook That you rock my world But you do, you really do You've turned me upside down And that's okay, I'll let it happen 'Cause I like having you around I'm electric, a romantic cliché Yeah, they really are all true When we catch eyes at that stupid party I know exactly what to do I'll take your hand, and we will leave French exits from me and you And now I'm home, a little bit drunk Some things don't change, and I know now Me and you were meant to be In love Me and you were meant to be In love Me and you I see the signs of a lifetime, you 'til I die

what a frickin amazing song and performance this is!! Got it on repeat.

Seen this band live twice..........Love them 😦

I really love this. Love this performance especially. It is kind of beautiful. Like Scarlett Johanson singing karaoke with the pink wig on with Bill Murray in Lost In Translation kind of beautiful.
