Frank Turner - Substitute Lyrics

oh i do nt owe but oh dear

I've always really appreciated the alliteration in the first lines of both verses

I hate to be that guy but does anyone else feel his new stuff has lost the charm? Or is it just me?

I enjoyed Tape deck heart but the latest one is not great I have to admit...but then again I also personally didn't like Poetry of the deed and adored England keep my bones, so I guess even Frank can have a bad album now and then!

Your not alone there buddy

Your rite i think that to

There needs to be a Frank Turner / Billy Bragg tour

+herp3 FUCK YES haha I was excited when Frank toured with The Gaslight Anthem, that was a show...

Holy shit I think I found the song used in Don't Hug Me I'm Scared [Love]. This is somehow better.

Why the fuck are the Tories sponsoring something that has genuine feeling behind it?

Frank Turner and Bruce Springsteen need to do a god damn tour together!

thanks for getting me through the tough shit

What I would give......

Favourite Frank lyrics right here. So good.

quero que você saiba.. que eu penso o mesmo ;)

<3 these lyrics! ^.^

This song is the cure to cope with a break up.

Love this song, But the first few notes always made me think of tribute.

Holy shit!! Yes!!

Good ear. Both start with A minor and have that little hammer on rhythm.

Mine is Canon in D...there are some bitchin remixes XD

what an incredible song, he had to make it too soppy on the last line though :P (i joke)

exactky people liked it to show they like the song, youtube nowadays has just been people are trying to get top comment but his/her comment deserves to be top.

"If music be the food of love, play on" - William Shakespeare, Twelfth Night

I heard my friend singing this song in class and i was made so curious by the lyrics that i had to hear it. I was petrified that he wouldn't sing it as well as she did but i was not let down! xx

I work for a cosmetic company that has its counter in Boots, and Boots has this song playing all the time. I love his voice, had to google the lyrics to find him!

If this song is based on Frank's personal experiences - I will KILL that woman who broke Frank's heart! :D

I like how even on 1.5x and .5x speed, it sounds great.
Normal speed is still the best, but I do enjoy half speed.

this is my favorite Frank Turner song :)

I think I'm gonna make this song my theme tune - to be played at all times as I stumble through life :)

@elliotspirrett I hear what you're saying. It's a tough spot to be in. It's just hard to argue that Frank Turner doesn't deserve it.

@GuitarSex69 I fear I'm a cunt for saying this, but I'd rather only people with taste knew of him. It would sadden me to see idiots talking of him.

'But oh, what I would give, not to stumble but to really fall in love and I could substitute my singing for the sound of someone sleeping next to me' Oh Frank x x

Indeed, music is my substitute for love :/

I'm sold... hook line and sink me into Frank's mind. Thank You <3

my favourite song!!!!

@DrParanoidAndroid I love your name.

@PeaceLoveandMovies considering your name on this that's a little ironic :)

If music was the food of love, then I'd be a fat romantic slob.

owwhhh i thought it was "if music was the food of love then i'd be a fat romantic slug" until i just looked up the lyrics, disappointment...

I just broke up with a girl i was dating for over 2yrs and this song just gets to me especially the ending verse, its the ones that get inside your head and heart that hurt the most.

This song might as well be about me...

Brsrlybrcfx

this guy is my brother inlaws cousin

@HeyMickeyForever Listen to it love, I had the same dilemma with another song, but the sooner I started listening to the song the sooner I was able to stop associating the song with him and just enjoy the music

Wow, a love song that isn't cheesy :)

@ImLivingLucid okay

For me, this explains why he is so good!!!

@Rachel786 Go to his gig and ask him for it. I got hugged by Frankie, so I guess that mere touching you wouldn't be a big issue... lol ;P

@AlfieJamesJefferies why not? Time for those Green Day losers to finally get some real tasteful music for once. Should be good for their education :D

gonna see him live at greenfield festival ♥

best line has to be 'oh, what i would give, not to stumble but to really fall in love'
it's so beautiful!

5 people have never been in love.

@Army88Z

and thanky uo for Dylan, the chili peppers, the doors and so many others :-) P.S. check out jamie T. you may like him, especially The mans Machine and Chaka Demus.

best song ever ..

fucking amazing so true

very sad... I love it...

@killzone1554
I saw them both together last year in Houston. It was the first time I ever even knew Frank Turner existed. It was a night of just incredible music. It was at the House of Blues. The small venue made it even better.

So I heard that he opened for Flogging Molly. The place must have exploded by the two being in the same building....

@ACOGTurkey I'm american, and i love this type of music.

2:43 seconds is not enough.

Great group! Saw them live in Indy last year, bought the Love Ire & Song album and been a fan since!

@musicslittlesister just listen to the fucking music.

@GuitarSex69 yes but most people don't know the true meaning of music and haven't found the right type of music to express their feelings so try to fit in with that bullshit stereotype and sing about their bling and shit, i hate people like that, they're to occupied with themselves to realise their are other people out there with worse stuff going on in their lives than they do so IF YOUR ONE OF THOSE FUCKING PEOPLE STAY AWAY FROM ME, if your aren't then i'm very sorry and i shouldnt've shouted

Best Song Meaning ever ! :)

HEZ DA BEST :)

Right... How the hell can people possibly dislike this? It's genius.

Why is there so much shit in the charts when we have artists like Frank out there? He should be at number 1.

@Ramalabadingdong He was intoxicated by the awesome.

What on earth was wrong with the poor guy who missed the 'Like'-Button??

@lifewithbeats fucking awesome, thanks :) haha

@IzzyObese you lucky thing! im sure it was amazing, its a great combo or artists

I now cant stop listening to Frank Turner, i can see why he got famous so fast

I'm seeing him tommorow along with GREEN DAY :D SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited, he's also from Winchester like me, which i think is pretty cool :) xx

i ADORE Frank Tunner XD

wonderful song but difficult to play lol

love it.
