Young Guns - Speaking In Tongues Lyrics

Towards the end reminds me of The Ring (film) !!!!

2019????

Another underrated banger

Love u guys excellent song tuning is great i keep singing this song always

Young guns songs r refreshing

Maybe there's no meaning and they just got a girl half naked so people would watch it.

Is he like half Italian and Austrian? Those eyes make him look like an alien

What happened to them ._. Musics so so but wtf am I watching?

Why is this different to the version on Spotify?

Am I the only one who doesn't understand why the heck this album got so much hate? Lyrically, the whole album is one of the best I have heard from any band, the instrumentation creates an atmosphere that's perfect for this album, Gustav really shines with his voice and it still really sounds like Young Guns to me. Why all the hate?

Just seeing how far these guys have gone is amazing. I saw them at lancaster library in 2010 warming up for the Blackout. From that moment I have always been a YG fan. Also manged to get them a few other followers as well keep going guys

can't stop abusing this song lol doesn't help he's also incredibly handsome.

꺅꺅♡

I must memorize the lyrics to this awesome song.

BRASIL .. UHUU !!
I danced with the devil
In the pale moonlight < 3

\o aeho

aeeeHOOOO

@Walter Neves kkk \o

Batman !!!

Aqui é BRASIL pohaa!!

show musica massa

Great song, the full length version is better though.

This song= as good as sex.

Did anyone see Davey Havok?

i cant believe incredible bands like this go unseen on mainstream radio but lady gaga and justin beiber play on mainstream all the time this band puts them to shame .

i don't understand why people constantly feel the need to put one artist down in order to prop others up - why cant we just accept that different people like different kinds of music? popularity differs per scene/genre and theres more than one radio station.

Blake Garvey it's because lady Gaga is awesome!

Still a GREAT SONG.

Gustav Wood, what a babe.

Bummer that in this short version of the song they did cut the best part of the lyrics:
"I'd run all night
Just to hear you speak in tongues to me
Now we stare at phones
And talk in awkward teenage poetry"

Still my fav song from this album Gustav your voice !! Wow I listen to this song before I have photo shoots. Amazing

This is probably my favorite song of them!!

It's a great song lml

This song is so fucking good

I am 47... and this f**ing rocks! I found it by randomly clicking on a spotify playlist

My mom, who is 47 as well, loves these guys and she introduced them to me, we have a very similar taste in music! =D

backslash68 my mother is 62 and is jamming to this right now lol!

Every song they sing sounds great. I think they are a throwback to bands who use to put out Albums instead of just singles. Put it in and listen to the entire album.

Wow "Speaking in Tongues"

You aren't a band... you are THE Band!!

Subscribed! His voice is AMAZING :D

young guns sold out so hard

Why does this version miss out a couple of verses that is in the album version?

I heard the song before the video, but now the video kind of put me off it cuz this was my fave song from the album

DJ BBQ brought me here..

This video sucks

What happened? The previous album was perfect!

loves u

WTF happened to this band !!! O.o

What is the name of the first model? she is incredibly beautiful :3

Personally I took from it that people enjoy other people's tragedy. The woman, representing the objectified and sexualized feminine image of the modern day (a la celebrities, models, singers, etc) is simply a product, and the people tune in through the eyes of the media (the cameramen). And that even when she loses herself to such itemization, and essentially breaks down into insanity, the cameras keep on flashing. Because, even more so than adoration for celebrities, people love to witness their utter destruction (albeit in a sick, sadistic, self-denial sort of way)...

Beautiful 😍

What the point of doing a Vedio promoting ur SONGS or ALBUM while no one will Understund the Védio c mon Védio should have a story a story that reflex Band idea or songs lyrics idea still a powerfull song

It's just random noise

The woman in the video is kinda hot but way too skinny. Still authentic voice and sound by the Young Guns. Cheers

Не айс

The intro is The same in " The city - 1975 "

Wot a crock of shit

Wonderful music and rhythm! ❤️

If y'all don't really fancy Young Guns new stuff, have a listen to the band Mallory Knox. They have the same intricacy and over all feel of Young Guns' earlier material and Christ almighty you should hear their vocalist! So if you miss the old music of Gustav and his crew, have a listen to them - you won't be disappointed!

Who's watching this after watching the "meet my boyfriend" video hahaha ?? From jenn's video?

me omg! I actually really like this;)

You already know

Meeeeh....

me too
 love them

This is what I waited 2 years for? Absolute dissapointmenf

The girl in the video is my friend Haley Kuunani and she's fucking fabulous.

Amelia Martin yep and she's my cousin

And my brother.

Why the hell do people always need to find stupid meanings in every single thing? Why the F*** cant you enjoy in the music?? If you find such videos offending than please, go and listen and watch videos from one direction and biber...

i won't judge this video bcs I don't understand it :D the song is amazing tho. Can't wait for whole album :')

This song fucking rules.

I like so much new stuff from young guns, so awesome, i m eager to discover their new album, that i wait since a long time, young guns are my favorite band of this moment, with you me at six, mallory knox, twin atlantic and lower than atlantis , long life for this band

xx-xx(BC) nice gustav <3 :)

muy buena banda :3 inspiran

The Best Music Videos of 2015 (so far)

This is terrible. Awful song and even worse video. What the fuck happened to Young Guns lol? This is embarrassing to their impressive resume of music.

@Chi26trojans Don't like it then please feel free to not watch their videos and leave a sarky comment which is just as worthless. I'm sure there are people more qualified to judge their music and give it a more accurate rating than some unqualified, low life critic. If they are happy making their music the way they want then leave them be, this doesn't negatively impact your life in such a way you feel the need to drag them down. Cheers.

The video seems to demonstrate shallow objectification and sexist attitudes that the media uses towards celebrities, always whether they like it or not, for the sake of profit - something that celebrities themselves often take advantage of to boost their own fame (Miley Cyrus anyone?). The band members all enter, take their photos of the woman and then exit; leaving her on her own once they've got what they wanted.

I think people have also started taking attitudes like this much more in general, such as with the way that we judge pictures of each other online rather than actually looking at someone in person: "OMG let me take a selfie! #givemelikes #me_me_me " "She looks fat LOL". Urgh.

Lyrically (click 'SHOW MORE') it's about how the world has started communicating with each other using phones and the internet instead of doing it in person. Speaking has become less meaningful and sincere, eg:

"I'd run all night
Just to hear you speak in tongues to me
Now we stare at phones
And talk in awkward teenage poetry"

"We're speaking in tongues
Face to face but miles away"

Overall the lyrics and video are about how times have changed from a world of simple face-to-face conversation about things that actually matter, to the more sordid, superficial world we find ourselves moving progressively closer to.

That's my take on everything anyway :)

Read some comments about what this video is about and here goes my point of view. What if there's some hidden story for the band? The women is simply the band, in the beginning she had only few fans (the one who stayed until the end) but as the story goes there are more and more people watching her. She look quite nice in the beginning but later she simply changed and as some wrote here she changed her behavior and that made her fans leaving. So what if they simply want to warm themselves as a band that if their rising fame and money makes them change, they will simply lost many fans. I love YG damn much and been there since AOKAD,seeing them rising and slowly conquering more places in the world and I always had a little chat with them after a gig and they were really nice and pretty down-to-earth so I just hope they will always stay this way and the fame won't make them behave arrogant, ignorant or something negative like this. Can't wait for new record!

glad to see other people were confused by the video too haha, though some of the explanations people are coming up with about it are really interesting too. whatever the actual meaning of the video young guns definitely don't seem like the kind of band to ignorantly objectify without a meaning behind it. will have to watch the video again! 

An amazing song! Great band! <3 Fantastic song!

THAT'S SUCH AMAZING! SERIOUSLY!!! <3 Wheeeen... When I get to you, yeah my blood runs cold ♪
I'm in love with this song!

Absolutely no idea what this video is meant to be saying? Pretty girl, men with cameras, something weird going on at the end... No clue.
However! I think this song is damn good and I love it.
Just the video... Hm. Sometimes more is less.

wasn't a fan at first but now addicted, heard this about 5 times in a row now :)

I cannot wait to see these guys in April !!!!!!!!

good song ! one like fro me <3 :333 !! 

They're first album was so good and I wish they kept to that style.....ahh well. 

I love this song but looking at other comments about the video i would have to agree them. The video is different to earlier pieces and there may be influence from the record company. But it is their (YG) video and this is how they chose to convey there lyrical message although it is not clear to me i still enjoy it.


Keep ip the good work guys. I love all your songs haha

I just had a funny thought, while i do think Young Guns are pretty good band, they remind me an awful lot of You Me at Six :) .

Though that might not really be a bad thing - if both bands ever lose a lot of members and are both in danger of not making anymore music, they can follow the leads of boybands, Mcfly and Busted, who became McBusted - what would a good name of the newly joined together band be, Young Six?, You Me at Guns?, something else? :) .

A collaboration between them would be so awesome!

Their first album sounded nothing like You Me at Six, this new radio friendly watered down stuff does. So over produced!

@92dunbar
:) .

Hm, i don't know what to think yet. They've added more styles to their usual roots, but that's not a problem here.
The lyrics are as complex as those of previous albums, and the typical elements of the Guns are still there (gustav's voice, the guitar-style, base and battery, the chorus of voices, etc.)
Guess i'll have to listen to the new album, listen to the previous material once again, and then i'll know what to think =)
Go on guys!
YOU ROCK

Adorei a música e o video 😍😍😍❤❤❤❤❤

great job <3

I'm thinking it's about the sexual objectification of women ripping away humanity. She starts off looking wealthy and powerful through her sexuality, but as the video goes on it changes. The rooms get dirtier and darker while the clothes she's wearing get less and less elegant or associated with wealth. By the end, she no longer even moves like a human being.

I thought the same. Also, as she starts to expose more of herself, her movements become less gracious and more unpredictable, as if she's using her dancing to express her "darker side". By the end, her message just becomes so distorted it stops making sense, so everybody just stops looking.

I think that's probably it. My thinking is that gus is somebody she was originally comfortable with doing it, but as more and more people come, you can see both parties become more uncomfortable with it, with her becoming more unhinged. And when everyone leaves, he hesitated, but she lashed out at him too, almost like the end of a relationship. He leaves because he knows he can't do anything.

video is crap, but the song is awesome!

Oh, I really do love this video. x'D

Young Guns are absolutely fantastic. Glad they've made a comeback.

They have a bigger label telling them 'sex sells'. That's the real point of the video. It feel a bit creepy and awkward to me. There is no resolution or hint and what was happening. Just men taking photos of the objectified woman.
Don't get me wrong, I love Young Guns to the end of the earth, but the new larger label's influence is definitely becoming more apparent.

@Giantdad Lives
Well, this comment is going to go down about as well as a bag of shite. I'll get the popcorn...

@Senghe and i'l get an icee. want one?

@cobraglatiator Hell yeah! We better skip the gallon cup of cola though or we might be in the bogs when the main event kicks off.

@Senghe ah,yea,probobly a good idea. red blue or other? i'm getting blue,so.

can't agree more

I'm really proud of you guys <3

PURE LOVE!!!!!!

Gus, you are so beautiful.
Love the song, Cool vid!

Young Guns have some of the best videos, really good band.

No matter what direction this band goes in, nothing will change how amazing Gustavs voice is omg!!👌👏
Love this song and the direction of the video, even if I don't really get it haha

I love how things like this can be interpreted a thousand different ways and still make sense...

Maybe the woman represents their band. So at first only a handful of people knew about them, then their fan base started to grow. Because they've their sound a little bit, people's perceptions of their band is changing and they don't like it, so they're leaving and stopped listening to them. Gustav represents the fans who are still holding on to their band and is still looking forward to and anticipating their new music. The old man in the front door could be their management or it could be ticket resellers who have bots who buy the tickets and resell them for crazy prices to gain profit. (hate them)

LOOL! I think I'm wrong but this is my perspective of this video and I think its what their aiming for, different interpretations by different fans :)

I really like the way you think...it makes perfect sense! :)

@brunatonella Thanks and its effects of studying English literature :D

Love the song and a great video. Can't wait for the album, guys! Gustav looks particularly good in this video too ;-)

See guys, i really like it!

Definitely prefer this to I Want Out

i love this video and they're my favorite band <3 i love that they always have variations in their music videos, and there's always nothing i've seen before! 

After seeing this all i think is what?

Super song!

rather middling song

Really not sure what this music video was about (loved it though!) but anyone else notice how she got all weird toward the end of the video after having her picture taken countless times? maybe it's referring to how pictures take away from beauty maybe? or something about the current 'selfie'/picture taking culture we have today. Just what i think, it is awfully weird and confusing but still amazing 

Okay so I've tried to figure out what this means, and I got:

The woman in the video is a prostitute, and the guy on the door sipping a drink is her pimp (collecting money for people to 'photograph' her despite not actually doing anything). Gustav originally thinks he's the only one before realising that he isn't, but continues regardless despite the others all doing the same thing. As it progresses, the whole thing gets worse and worse until she eventually goes insane or has a mental breakdown or something and they all leave her.

I'm probably wrong but this is what I got from it

You're on to something. I think it's about how sexual objectification dehumanizes people.

I'd guess something like that I dance with the devil and that look on her face close up looks angry

I'm not usually into Young Guns but I like this song

His eyes tho

Can't wait for the album now
