Years & Years - 'If You're Over Me'

16 May 2018, 10:55

The Years & Years lads put on the most glamorous cabaret for you in their brand new music video for 'If You're Over Me'.

We're so pleased that Years & Years are back. When we first heard 'If You're Over Me', we squealed a lot. And then they dropped their accompanying music video...

*squeals internally forever*.

> Olly Alexander Was Told To Hide His Sexuality When Years And Years Got Signed

Having already welcomed us to their futuristic world of Palo Santo in the 'Sanctify' music video, we take a second trip back to the world where androids control humanity and force them to do what they want, in the video for 'If You're Over Me'.

Opening on a black screen with the words "The human cabarets of Palo Santo are attended by androids, all hoping to experience real emotion,"

"Human performers can find themselves dancing the same routines for weeks… months… years…"

Soon after, we see Olly Alexander put on one hell of a show - something we hope to see that the #CapitalSTB, Olly - as he prances around the stage in one hell of a glittery outfit, and even manages to fit in time to woo someone backstage. How does he do it?

Years & Years - 'If You're Over Me' Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
It's like thunder and lightning
You hurt me without trying
A tempest, you was rising
And no I don't like to be this way
And you're Jekyll and Hydein'
Are you real or are you lying?
So stop with your crying
I can't handle it now

[Pre-Chorus]
You tell everyone our love went cold
Going round, spreading the word, it's over
If that's how you feel then you should go
Don't come around saying, "I still want you"

[Chorus]
One minute you say we're a team
Then you're telling me you can't breathe
Well you should set me free
Baby, if you're over me
Yesterday you said I'm the one
But now you say you're done
Stop telling me what I need
Baby, if you're over me

[Verse 2]
There you go, there, I said it
Don't look at me all offended
You played games and it ended
I've got to look out for me
I won't say that it's easy
Oh, I know I hate leaving
But you can't keep deceiving
Does it make you feel good?

[Pre-Chorus]
You tell everyone our love went cold
Going round, spreading the word, it's over
If that's how you feel then you should go
Don't come around saying, "I still want you"

[Bridge]
How long can a love remain?
Time never could heal this pain
I thought I believed in fate
Oh, it's so cruel
No, nothing for us would change
Same story, the same mistake
This heart just wants to break

[Outro]
Just go if it's over
Just go if it's over
Just go if it's over
Baby, if you're over me
Just go if it's over
Just go if it's over
Just go if it's over
Baby, if you're over me
