Belle & Sebastian - The Party Line Lyrics
How did I get here? I heard a rumour
From your girlfriend's sister that you knew me
And you end up dancing closer to me
I know that I broke the rule already
Going steady
I just drop my head and took a step off into the dark
Standing on the black and white tiles
Don't dance on the lines
Cause the bears eat the pretty ones
We are like the islands, divided
Jump to the beat of a party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
But your body, dear
Jump to the beat of the party line
Stay
You stay
I am on this morning quite distracted
The tug of war begins on our emotion
I am leaving many people feeling
Worse than before
People like to drive their cars and smoke up
People like to sit inside and toke up
People like to shoot at things with borrowed guns and knives
I am happy to look and run
Where were you when I was king in this part of town?
Now the days of glory are gone
Jump to the beat of a party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
There is nobody here
But your body, dear
Jump to the beat of the party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
There is nobody here
But your body, dear
Nobody here
But your body, dear
Jump to the beat of a party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
There is nobody here
But your body, dear
Jump to the beat of the party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
Jump to the beat of a party line
There is nobody here
But your body, dear
Nobody here
But your body, dear

0:28 This music style makes me feel melancholic, I don´t know why
Everybody's talking about the sound and I'm over here trying to figure out wtf is going on the video, lol. I was waiting for some kind of payoff.
Probably one of their best tracks... Great they didn't stick to their traditional sound... bands have the right to evolve
Quiero bailar!
I came here for Hinds' Instagram story, don't regret it

Worst fucking way to end a song!!! Wtf!
Younge St. 1981. I'M still a kid. Love the disco vibe. Great tune. From Motown.
Sumamente hermoso
Just the optimal amount of cowbell being used here. Well done!
Good song!
I don’t care if they made indie music or if they had an indie sound but this song is great and the video is awesome!!!
Jump to the beat of the party line :D ¿ anyone 2019 ?
This is the good indie. Ever will be my favorite.
2018 anyone?
2019 now :)
Wow, too bad about all the smoking in this thing. The tobacco industry must be thrilled. Truth is it makes you unattractive to 80% of the population, if you think that's good then go for it.
Great song for a silly video!
Faded in a room at my home girls plave she played this an i can say it interesting. A might be feeling this. Coming from a person who listens to music.
Heard this in Walgreens today. Had to pull out the Shazam app
Amo demais <3
sitting in walgreens and this came on, was extremely confused because i thought it sounded like troye sivan.
3:28 Eargasm
Who came from Difficult People??
I'ved partied to the Party Line - dancing at Belle and Sebastian show!
There is nobody here but you bought a deer
sounds good. Glad I found these guys.
The guy doesn´t dance with her, doesn´t he?
kind of bored...That girl deserve a better guy.
I love them ao much
I heard this song in Walgreens and was like "shii, i gotta download this. this was dope" lol
626 618 32 98
belle and sebastian are the most underrated band ever
yes! Not only dance! wow!
I cannot believe I was just at Behemoth Slayer and Lamb of God. But I ducking love this 0song-and so does my woman Amber #ma0ggotstilwedie
grabriel said this band is good so im checking on them oh gabriel😊
This song is extremely groovy
wtf happened to belle and sebastian. this is more like Debby and Steve.
Very different, but still awesome!
I can here cuz I was on hold for iPhone
I love the disco roller vibessss! :D
Inspired by Pierrot Le Fou opening scene / Godard ?
I jist heard this at walgreens. Had to shazam it
diu lo mo about the advertisement
haven't listened to belle and sebastian for years, they've changed so much. I'm liking this.
To be honest, i love reinventions...that is what life is all about...reinventing yourself to make sense of the now..great effort guys xx
Life is not about 'reiventing yourself'!
First time listening to this band and already in love ❤️. Had no idea they were from the same place as me!!
This deserves much more views.
came here from kidsinterviewbands with touche amore, belle & sebastian cover was printed on Jeremy t-shirt
melhor musica
liv cat smoking a cigarette!!!!!!!!!!! i love my friends
i love my environmentalists
no but seriously i thought you were making a porno at the start of that vid xD
I love the typography in this video. It's pretty similar to Cooper BT, used in the Write about Love era. Does anybody know what font is it?
Sounds like the indie band Of Montreal. I love it!
In the true, Of Montreal sounds like B&S
I grew up with this band. Interesting to hear them as they progress. I do like this song.
do they take a break from actibity? i've not seen their new music video 1year before. do anyone know?
I found this song playing at the Walgreens I work at and I could not stop dancing!
Ha didn't think i'd find another person who was introduced to this song/band via Walgreens
vi a banda ao vivo pela segunda vez no ano passado, e eles continuam fantásticos
The most un-Bellend Sebastian tune they've ever made... I love the change-up!
#la route du rock ;)
Wow I haven't listened to b&s for years.
When did they get shit?
Something of a loaded question, like "When did you stop beating your wife?"
影片很中肯!繼續錄製,保持分享才會有成就。董導師祝好。若你覺得喜歡,請看一下我的頻道。
Temaki samurai ninja sushi karate?
toca musicas deles no filme brasileiro "Hoje Eu Quero Voltar Sozinho" ambos bom demais!
É aquele filme que tem um homem querendo pegar outro homem?
im looking for the TV show not these wankers
To muito feliz por agora eles terem um vevo
Quem diria, né, fera? Até os caras foram sugados pela "máquina do showbizz"! Não existe mais integridade no mundo artístico. Uma pena...
Who came here from the way he looks?
yes 😂
Danie Norris
Patrick Darcy k
This song is HOT!
I don't know why this video and song makes me so sad, but it does it in such a beautiful way.
Why????
Because it's a party and "nobody's here" lend itself to a certain amount of sadness.
More than meets the eyes brought me here. Anyone else ?
yep. I thought I was the only one.
I heard this song playing in a Walgreens and was very intrigued. A Google search on the lyrics brought me here.
I don't understand this video at all
Regan King I guess that it's about the loneliness of the protagonist of the video.
Does the band name come for David Belle and Sebastian Foucan, the founders of parkour and freerunning
the name comes from a french kid's show
https://www.qwant.com/?q=belle et sébastien&t=videos
No, comes from a French cartoon.
It comes from a french cartoon and at the same time from a short story that the singer (Stuart Murdoch) wrote in his younger years about two hipsters falling in love called Belle and Sebastian.
LINDO!!!!
JUMP!! TO THE BEAT!!
NYT article (video) sent me here....love it.
SWEET! this is pretty awesome <3 l love the synth
i love Belle and Sebastian \o/
I want the first 30 seconds of this song on loop.
they dance in wartime ....hate them
b.a.s in vevo ??? ¬¬
The times are changing, my friend!
Awesome video. I love the references to the french new wave. The main protagonist of the video even looks extremely similar to Anna Karina.
Anna Karina? Not really!
@Bruno C. Maybe it's more of a gives-off-a-similar-vibe thing than a literal physical resemblance?
Looks like a Xavier Dolan's movie
Surprised I've just heard of this band, especially since I am Scottish.
Shame on you! ; )
nice music
I think is awesome
First single that's made me a serious fan! Buying my first album now. They were okay before, but now I LOVE THEM.
Have you bought the album yet?
+Bruno C. Not yet!
+Bruno C. Finally installing an up to date stereo in my car.
Where is my Belle.
love it
zara ♡
zara took me here
+Fransiskus Jenings lol same
what? they are happy?
Bought this album, listened to all the tracks once, hated it. Back to Fold Your Hands it is. Sorry B&S.
Hoy en Perú!!!
Perú ...
can't stop listening to this music hahaha
Come to peruuu
I love the dancing and the choreography! My friend and I always did ballet and jazz off to the side at our school dances. So much more fun than "step together, step together", which was the incredibly inventive popular move at the time (80's). These dancers are great!
sell out muthfuckas. i knew the members of this band like 9 years ago. i never saw them selling out like this. a pethetic attempt at that! i am embarresed! (ignore the spelling mistakes grammer nazis)
Very diffrent. More Dance and Rock. Reminds me a lot of early MGMT, LCD Soundsystem or what Arcade Fire where doing on there most recent album Reflektor. I like it!
This is what happens when you regret a chance to dance
I want to dace like that!!
