Frank Turner - Little Changes Lyrics






Waking up too early in the city feeling disconnected
The underground and my understanding have delays on the line
The weather and the way we worked out weren't quite as expected
I've been melting in the summer heat going out of my mind

So far from okay, tongue-tied and afraid
The big things stay the same and you just say

Little changes
Little changes

Giving up too easy when we could've tried a little bit harder
Standing to the side as the neighborhood went to the dogs
We spent our energy getting angry instead of being kinder
Singing hymns of praise in a city given up on by the gods

So far from okay, tongue-tied and afraid
The big things stay the same until we make

Little changes
Little changes
Little changes

'Cause I've been messing things up
And I've been letting you down
I've been getting it wrong for far too long
I've been lost more than found
And I don't know where to start
But something's gotta break
Don't pull it apart, keep it close to your heart
I'll do whatever it takes

So far from okay, tongue-tied and afraid
The big things stay the same, let us make

Little changes
Little changes
Come on let's make some little changes
It's time to make some little changes

Let's not just pray
Let's make a change
Let's not just pray
Let's make a change
Come on let's make some little changes
It's time to make some little changes

    This was playing in my local grocery store food lion in Roanoke Virginia a couple of days ago, I had to sing and dance a little while shopping ,greatest grocery store run ever

    This video made my day, i love the dance in this song😂😂

  13. D.... F....

    Absolutely bloody brilliant!

  14. l.... ....

    When it starts it sounds like the music for a "home craft" video. Like 10 things to do with an empty coke bottle.

  15. H.... ....

    AW Frank: this video is adorable

  16. T.... b....

    He is just adorable! :)

  17. A.... ....

    You are my modern-day James Taylor ... I'm so sorry you have to do this drivel to be "relevant". WNDY Cheers!

  23. H.... K....

    Something about this song just makes me want to shuffle my feet along like he does in the video

  24. M.... C....

    Frank, this has to be one of your best videos. It captures the essence of trying - faking it till you make it, not giving up. Keep it up mate!

  25. B.... R....

    I just started listening to his music again and this video gives me life

  26. S.... ....

    This never fails to put a smile on my face.

  27. L.... C....

    Actual footage of me at musical theatre rehearsals
    (I love this song so much, btw.)

  28. t.... ....

    There's people are saying this has no message or isn't political enough, but I think it's actually the opposite. In the current political climate the rich are just getting richer, people are being oppressed and the planet is getting to the point of no return pollution wise. And this song, it says don't be angry, don't fight fire with fire, fight by making little changes. Be compassionate instead of insisting violence, help people, don't let biggots get to you, be more kind. Save the world but do it in small ways by making little changes. That's what I really love about this song. It's not complaining, it's talking about a solution, and that's why Frank Turner is awesome!

    t.... ....

    Artists write songs to be ambiguous to connect with as large an audience as possible, to me it's improving my career and working at my relationship. He gave an interview on this song here; https://www.clashmusic.com/news/listen-frank-turner-little-changes

  29. l.... ....

    0:48 "Big dicks stay the same"

  30. E.... L....

    My love for Frank Turner will never die.

  31. E.... P....

    Awesome

  32. p.... ....

    If that wasn't written with advertising in mind then I don't know what was. It is like a parody of corporate pop.

  33. R.... C....

    https://youtu.be/Cjc9UJk2v6w?t=189

    Is this move inspired by the closing credits of Bottom?

  34. V.... F....

    I love everything on this album and this song. What an amazing writer and singer not afraid to take risks and have fun! Sure it’s not his usual punk sound but it’s still fantastic.

  35. H.... B....

    lad taught your singer to drance it like me dad soz

  36. d.... f....

    Go on Wessex boy

  37. B.... ....

    Heard this guy on CBC Radio the other day. Loved the song they played but never got the title. He's great.

  38. C.... S....

    I want music to make me feel good and give me some hope! This album succeeds. The people disliking it and leaving negative comments are missing the point! Have some fucking fun!

  39. t.... ....

    He dances like a punk and punks can't dance and I love it

  40. S.... B....

    Saw Frank last night in London, Ont. The new stuff went over well. Such a great live band.

  41. J.... M....

    thanx to frank for playing a pop up show for the less fortunate in edmonton before his concert at the winspear sept 11

  42. p.... ....

    Absolutely awesome artist and the negativity posse can do one!

  43. K.... J....

    This and Blackout weren't my favorite songs of his, but after last night in Portland. Both are absolutely amazing live.

    K.... J....

    Blackout is fucking bop.

  44. S.... A....

    Awesome dance moves aside, this guy is clueless.

  45. A.... T....

    The more I listen to Frank the more I love him as an artist and person, thank you for the great music and great messages, walking to work and being stuck in a root and hearing songs like this helping us is what music is all about, thanks Frank! 😁

  46. J.... ....

    Gotta love this dork 😂

  47. L.... P....

    musicians, and people for that matter, are entitled to experiment and evolve. Those who are true FT fans will appreciate what he's doing. he's an artist and a poet , why should he re-produce the same thing every time? he's playing with his creativity and IMO doing a f*cking great job. he's one of the most honest, raw and prolific musicians we have right now. he's given us a great time for many years, so let him have a good time, he's earned it. join in and support his evolution! FTHC. love him.

  48. M.... M....

    Ive seen frank play live a few times.. Hes one of the best ..song writers and musicians....he puts on damn good show....real talent... Go check him out live...you wont regret it

  49. B.... W....

    Did he just pull a Flint Flossy?!!!

  50. e.... w....

    I reckon I must be about 1000 of these views!! ❤❤

  51. j.... s....

    how long did it take to warm up

  52. A.... D....

    Awesome video Frank every time I watch it, or listen to it, killer dance moves, reminds me of mine !! My cheeks hurt from smiling so much !! Keep on Keeping on man, See you in Seattle !! Flying from FL for the show !! YEWWWW !! Stoked

  53. D.... o....

    Who else is here for German

  54. H.... B....

    BMW should follow the rule of the road little changes stay on there side

  55. j.... ....

    This is my feel good song. Love this song, his voice and the message. Perfect antidote to  LA morning gridlock Guy in the light brown suit is an incredible dancer

  56. S.... E....

    Frank Turner sounding like boring mainstream middle aged white guy music here... and this video. Wtf? The lyrics are extremely fitting. Looks and sounds like a Target ad. Sad. I'm a fan of his older stuff, this is just cant... but I still believe.

  57. K.... R....

    Great track. Only discovered Frank because we had a request to play “Little Changes” on hospital Radio Brockley, and we were all singing, tapping or nodding (like you do!) our way through the track in the studio. Excellent!

    K.... R....

    hospital radio is a force for good (saying that i youtube recomended me this after I stole his track Blackout for my show,)

  58. m.... ....

    ummm i still believe

  59. B.... H....

    English master of true modern rock and roll. Makes sense.

  60. H.... B....

    they do nt wear tie any more t shit under shirt that like little changes ditch the t shirts u must be hot in this weather love break dancing

  61. H.... B....

    what i found out about life black dislike blacks white dislike white black dislike whites and religus people would kill for thier beliefs but it ok it all a learning curve . mix race are dis like for both side but mix race girl the guy go mad for and that hypocrusy

  62. J.... ....

    Waking up too early in the city feeling disconnected
    The underground and my understanding have delays on the line

    And I don't know where to stop

    Don't pull out the part, keep it close to your heart
    I'll do whatever it takes
    So far from okay, tongue-tied and afraid
    The big things stay the same, let us make
    Little changes

  63. F.... ....

    I've been so unsure about BMK so far that when this video came out I didn't even give it a shot, I'm so glad I finally did because it's hilarious and catchy af too! My bad, Frank, won't happen again xD

  64. L.... ....

    Doesn't this remind you of a Halifax advert?

  65. K.... C....

    Love, love, love it!!!

  66. H.... B....

    shout for Jamac .

  67. M.... K....

    This is lit 🔥

  68. K.... P....

    I love this video. I love Frank Turner's music. "Be More Kind" is a great album.

  69. E.... ....

    Frank, you're fucking precious.

  70. A.... ....

    Brilliant, Frank, brilliant! For me, I join the 3.3K army of lovers, not the 109 haters. Easy choice! :)

  71. J.... M....

    I'm a bit surprised I must say because my dad put me onto this, I'm 28 but he's in his 50's and it's not his usual taste in music. So pleasantly surprised!

  72. G.... F....

    I love the part right before the chorus starts 1:24

  73. J.... J....

    My son darren who is 9 years old would like me to tell ya " if you keep on practicing and practicing and never give up then you can become a master at dancing and not being mean i know you think u are a bad dancer and i do too (lol) but if you follow my advice you could become really good at dancing 😁" from darren to frank turner

  74. L.... E....

    I can't get enough of this song and the video :) Hoping to come to Amsterdam in November as it'd be one day after my birthday!

  75. M.... H....

    This video made me cry, honestly. Frank Turner is a musical genius and I don't understand how he isn't as well known as he should be. Whenever I listen to any of his music, my day is brightened significantly. Even though he doesn't get the recognition he deserves, I enjoy sharing his brilliance with other people. Love this video! (;

  76. e.... w....

    3.08 my heart 😍😍

  77. K.... W....

    Frank Turner dancing: How most people feel all the time.

  78. R.... M....

    Not one of my all time favorite albums, but I have to say, it's very evident that he had a lot of fun with it. And this video is fantastic, oh my god.

  79. A.... T....

    Well shit that was adorable.

  80. S.... S....

    A person can be bothered by steps which are clearly not in synchronisation with others. That's the point. When singer tries to exit from other side of the screen and then turns back seeing the crowd going other way, we think does it matter which way we go out. But in real life we try to follow the crowd at every point. Little changes.

  81. B.... B....

    "But I'm no good at dancing, and yet I have to do something!"

  82. s.... ....

    Maybe the 20th time I've watched this video this week. No regrets.

  83. E.... S....

    This video cheers me up so much

  84. M.... C....

    This is why I love Frank Turner, haha! 🤣

  85. P.... C....

    Just wonderful. Frank rules.

  86. J.... L....

    Brilliant

  87. m.... h....

    This guy is all over the youtube adverts and he’s dog shit

    m.... h....

    Elijah Moore yes it’s so annoying

  88. S.... s....

    Love this album

  89. S.... D....

    ‘And while I’m alive I’ll make tiny changes to earth.”
    -Scott Hutchison

    Frank... you fucking rock. I just connected those lines.

  90. A.... ....

    I was hesitant about the style change and I think some of the songs on the record are a little weak, but I enjoy it overall. This song is great. Frank forever

  91. L.... ....

    Frank is adorable, just the little smiles to the camera like 'yeah, I know what you're all thinking, you weren't expecting a dance routine video' xD

  92. f.... d....

    wtf lmao

  93. C.... ....

    This is such a British song xDxD, " *Melting in the summer heat, going out moy mind* " Lmfao especially with that strong London accent

  94. u.... M....

    The only thing Frank is more passionate about than dancing ( :D ) is probably the records who made him the great songwriter he is today! We went to a record shop in Berlin-Kreuzberg with him and digged through the crates: https://youtu.be/Ln6BJBJpyd0

  95. S.... ....

    I can't help but think the guy with the ginger beard looks like Matthew Lewis (Neville Longbottom)

  96. N.... P....

    Not gonna lie, getting David Brent vibes from this......

  97. R.... 2....

    Love & Ire song has always been my favourite album. However since listening to this album multiple times I went back and listened. All I could think was where are the great instruments in the back background. I mean it will probably always be my favourite, but I LOVE Be More Kind more than I thought I would!!

  98. I.... E....

    Once again I am amazed by what you are making. Your keep being an inspiration for my own music making. Keep doing what you doing! ❣️❣️💟🎷💞😮

  99. O.... L....

    I love this video, awkward dancing in a suit.. I cannot get enough of it. Love this album aswell..
