When Years & Years took to the stage at the #CapitalJBB there was only one real word that could describe them – kings!

Their live set has always been hailed as one of the best around and it was easy to see why. Their performance was tight, crisp and they’ve got a bucket full of hits ready to set off any show.

London’s iconic O2 Arena was the venue for Capital’ Jingle Bell Ball with Coca Cola and Years & Years looked to be right at home performing in front of 16,000 people – take about total pros!

This was the band’s first single to reach the top of the charts and when every single audience member knows the words, you can tell it’s a pretty popular tune!

Years & Years ‘King’ Lyrics

I caught you watching me under the light
Can I realign?
They say it’s easy to leave you behind
I don’t wanna try

Cut cover, take that test
Hold courage to your chest
Don’t wanna wait for you
Don’t wanna have to lose
All that I've compromised to feel another high
I’ve got to keep it down tonight

And oh, oh, oh
I was a king under your control
And oh, oh, oh
I wanna feel like you’ve let me go
So let me go

Don’t you remember how I used to like
Being on the line?
I dreamed you dreamed of me calling out my name
Is it worth the price?

Cut cover, take that test
Hold courage to your chest
Don’t wanna wait for you
Don’t wanna have to lose
All that I've compromised to feel another high
I’ve got to keep it down tonight

And oh, oh, oh
I was a king under your control
And oh, oh, oh
I wanna feel like you’ve let me go

I had to break myself to carry on
No love and no admission
Take this from me tonight
Oh, let’s fight
Oh, let’s fight
Oh, let’s fight
Oh...

And oh, oh, oh
I was a king under your control
And oh, oh, oh
I wanna feel like you’ve let me go
So let me go

Let go, let go, let go of everything
Let go, let go, let go of everything
Let go, let go, let go of everything
Let go, let go, let go of everything
