Fontaines D.C.: Jackie Down The Line +FRISSÍTÉS: I Love You + Skinty Fia – újabb klipdalok az új Skinty Fia albumról

A 2022-es Sziget Fesztiválra is bejelentkező ír kvintett április 22-én adja ki az ismét Dan Carey angol producerrel felvett Skinty Fia című nagylemezt, melyen a tagok szerint az eddigi legfülbemászóbb dalaik szerepelnek, míg menedzserük szerint az eddigi legsötétebb szerzeményeikről van szó. A címbeli ír átkozódás a honlapjukon és ma feltűnt utcai posztereiken olvasható magyarázat szerint az őz kárhozata, ahogy az elmúlt napokban felbukkant posztjaikban is az őztematika uralkodik, egy forgatási képen például a szövegíró-frontember Grian Chatten is szarvakkal látható.

Ami a Jackie Down The Line című első kislemezdal Hugh Mulhern által rendezett klipjét illeti, abban őzgidák helyett lányok szerepelnek.

FRISSÍTÉS: a dal előadása Jimmy Fallon másnap éjszakai tévéműsorában!

My friend Sally says she knows ya
Got a funny point of you
Says you got away with murder
Maybe one time maybe two

Something happens in the morning
When I can’t see those failing eyes
I can’t find a good word for ya
Does it come as a surprise?

I don’t think we’d rhyme
I will wear you down in time
I will hurt you, I’ll desert you
I am Jackie down the line

Said did Sally ’bout a future
Before you bored of her as well
If all you want is entertainment
If you can’t have it you make hell

Don’t make no odds for ye
To be told, yeah
Don’t make no odds for ye
To be told, yeah

I don’t think we’d rhyme
I will wear you down in time
I will hurt you, I’ll desert you
I am Jackie down the line
I don’t think we’d rhyme
I will make your secrets mine
I will hate ye, I’ll debase ye
I am Jackie down the line

So come on down to Sally’s boneyard
See her spirit in decline
See the handsome mourners crying
They hawked a beating heart for a sturdy spine, yeah

What good is happiness to me
If I’ve to wield it carefully?
For care I’ll always come up short
It’s only right

I don’t think we’d rhyme
I will wear you down in time
I will hurt ye, I’ll desert ye
I’m one Jackeen of a line
I don’t think we’d rhyme
I will take up all your time
I will chew ye, I’ll go through ye
I am Jackie down the line
I don’t think we’d rhyme
I will make your secrets mine
I will hate ye, I’ll debase ye
I am Jackie down the line
And I will stone ye, I’ll alone ye
I am Jackie down the line
If I can make you, I can break you
I am Jackie down the line
I am Jackie down the line

egy I Love You című másik új Fontaines D.C.-dal élő ősbemutatója 2021 októberében a londoni Alexandra Palace-ben, ahol az első sorban egy kapatos ír rajongó épp arról kántál, hogy az angolok mind picsafejek:

FRISSÍTÉS 2: az I Love You február közepén közzétett stúdióverziója és Sam Taylor által rendezett klipje!

I love you, I love you, I told you I do
It’s all I’ve ever felt, I’ve never felt so well
And if you don’t know it, I wrote you this tune
To be here loving you when I’m in the tomb
I’ve eddied the heart now from Dublin to Paris
And if there was sunshine it was never on me
So close the rain, so pronounced is the pain

Well I love you, imagine a world without you
It’s only ever you, I only think of you
And if it’s a blessing, I want it for you
If I must have a future, I want it with you
System in our hearts, you only had it before
You only opened the window, never opened up the door
And I love you, I love you, told you I do

Selling genocide and half cut pride I understand
I had to be there from the start, I had to be the fucking man
It was a clamber of a life I sucked the ring off every hand
Had em plying me with drink, even met with their demands
When the cherries lined up I kept the spoilings for myself
’till I had 30 ways of dying looking at me from the shelf
A cloud-parting smile I had, a real good child I was
But this island’s run by sharks with children’s bones stuck in their jaws
Now the morning’s filled with cokeys tryna talk you through it all
Is their mammy Fine Gael and is their daddy Fianna Fáil?
And they say they love the land but they don’t feel it go to waste
Put a mirror to the youth and they will only see their face
Makes flowers read like broadsheets, every young man wants to die
Say it to the man who profits and the bastard walks by
And the bastard walks by, and the bastard walks by
Say it to him fifty times and still the bastard won’t cry
Would I lie?

I love you, I love you, I told you I do
It’s all I’ve ever felt, I’ve never felt so well
And if you don’t know it, I wrote you this tune
To be here lovin’ you when I’m in the tomb
System in our hearts, you only had it before
Echo, echo, echo, the lights they go
The lights they go, the lights they go
Echo, echo

Selling genocide and half-cut pride I understand
I had to be there from the start I had to be the fucking man
It was a clamber of a life, I sucked the ring off every hand
Had em plying me with drink, even met with their demands
And I loved you like a penny loves the pocket of a priest
And I’ll love you till the grass around my gravestone is deceased
And I’m heading for the cokeys, I will tell them ’bout it all
About the gall of Fine Gael and the fail of Fianna Fáil
And now the flowers read like broadsheets, every young man wants to die
Say it to the man who profits and the bastard walks by
And the bastard walks by, and the bastard walks by
Say it to him fifty times and still the bastard won’t cry
Would I lie?

FRISSÍTÉS 3: március 21-én az album címadó száma, a Skinty Fia is megérkezett Hugh Mulhern videójával!

Does you really don’t know where the avenuers go?
Are you lying through your teeth or are they paying through your nose?
A set of manners and a smile is all they want you for
But we can talk about it later, you can read it in the paper
I hated you away from the very start
I seen you sticking to your smile, it’s gone and broken my heart
Now the wind is making work of every step on the bridge
You say „I used to say we found each other, now I don’t know where he is”
You get that feel, make your spirit shinе
I let her prize apart my ribcagе like a crackhead at the blinds, it hurt
But come the downing of a scrapyard sun
There is no light falls on our failure, it ain’t covered in the paper

Well I really don’t care what you think of me
But something gears me to the grovel every opportunity
I’ve got that jealous stripe, I probably am that type
I’ll see you twenty Mary’s later when your tongue is talking straighter
Heard he took ‘em all down to the mercenary bar
I heard she broke up with her fella, now he’s drinkin’ in his car, nah
I’m not inclined towards the scandalous word
But on the subject of myself, I do believe what I’ve heard
There is a track beneath the wheel and it’s there till we die
She says „I don’t agree with nothing”, I say “Neither do I”, go to sleep
There’s not a thing can’t be fixed with a dream
And we can talk about it later, you can read it in the paper

I bet you, I bet you, you had your smile
You had your smile for the open mile
I bet you, I bet you, you had your smile
Your face defile for the open mile
I bet you, I bet you, I bet you now
I bet you, I bet you, I bet you now
I bet you, I bet you, I bet you, I bet you now
