Kaiser Chiefs - Meanwhile Up In Heaven Lyrics

For ppl who are ovrrthinig things about ththings about this somg it is about Nicks H's dad as he died a yr after he had a diagnosis of Alzheimer's. So the song is for Nick so say he will be with his dad again.
I hope that helps you all understand why they wrote this excellent song and it is a comforting song for anyone who has lost a loved one. Like i have just lost my cousin and his mum died when he was about 6 yrs old, and i hope it is true because he will be with his mum now. OK FINISHED

And the day comes!! thanks to God Im coming to see you today in Lima Peru♥

It was for dawn, Darren , Ian...RIP

We all used to hangout with Kaiser's in the cockpit Leeds, Brighton beach club

People who can't see anything good in this song: you'll see it when you're ready to 💜

Meanwhile, Up In Heaven
Kaiser Chiefs


Picture yourself by a rocket
Picture yourself in a glittering silver suit
Picture yourself getting on it
Saluting the news crews, you're the new recruit


Do you remember the numbers
Hung on the door of the house where you grew up?
Do you remember the colors
Tied round the handles of last year's FA Cup?


Meanwhile, up in Heaven
They're waiting for you
They're waiting for you
And if you believe them, you will see that when you


Meanwhile, up in Heaven
They're waiting for you
They're waiting for you
And if you believe them, you will see that when you
Are ready to


Guided by love and a flashlight
Led by consuming desire for a good idea
The light in the clock on the dashboard
Has not worked in years but I know that it's still there


Meanwhile, up in Heaven
They're waiting for you
They're waiting for you
And if you believe them, you will see that when you


Meanwhile, up in Heaven
They're waiting for you
They're waiting for you
And if you believe them, you will see that when you
Are ready to


Your mind is the key, it is the key that sets you free
Oh, your mind is the key, it is the key that sets you free


Meanwhile, up in Heaven
They're waiting for you
They're waiting for you
And if you believe them, you will see that when you


Meanwhile, up in Heaven
They're waiting for you
They're waiting for you
And if you believe them, you will see that when you
Are ready to

nobody is gonna talk about carters steam fair

The feels are too strong to describe

Habia olvidado lo hermosas que eran las canciones de Kaiser Chiefs ;u; las amo <3

im in love in this video and song for months.. <3

excelente cancion

Isnt that John Watson's wife?

This isnt Post-Punk anymore :(

bands evolve bro, get over it.

If you don't dive into their tunes deeply you can't really know how tasty their songs are and how many emotions each song can render. I feel keen on the albums released, even because a little sadness or nostalgia can be spotted in some of them and right here I don't find that random happiness which characterizes the band totally! This song is mature, alive, it makes you fancy another world, so many thoughts crop up at the same time, you feel grabbed by such a decent mix of rock and electronic music! The melodic part is flawless, hypnotic, indescribably proper to a specific audience. It pushes you.

Sounds a bit like Papa Emeritus (Tobias Forge) from Ghost BC./ Magna Carta Cartel/ Subvision

Очень грустно становится, когда слушаю эту песню. Кажется, что ты влюблён, но у тебя отняли что-то важное.

liked him better when he was chubby

i love Ricky look here , so adorable.

such a good videoclip!!!!!!! love it!

Ricckyyy! ❤❤

i am the only INE who has realized that these is pure arte?????

Amanda maravilhosa pra caralho

waiting for U in Poland!

has anyone else noticed the same blue door is in "my life " "coming home " and this song

Oh, come on, nobody is going to talk about how deep this song is?
The world doesn't revolve around you and your musical taste. Bands get old AND change
This song touched me in ways you can't even imagine. But you're way too blind to see it, right?
Even if it's not your musical taste anymore, please, don't spam it.

Thanks Kaisers! This has helped me with the loss of my dog last month.

ohh I member

the numbers mason what do they mean

Listening to this band turns out to be a great journey, they involve the listener, they spellbind you at times and they succeed in establishing that bright link between rock and electronic music, they never stumble across mainstream and this aspect is surely a point of success and domination, you vanquish all of your enemies when you prove that your music is different, concrete, proper to newer dimensions and with a coherent insight. I particularly look at their manners, they want to make you have fun and attending a gig of theirs would be irreplaceable and unforgettable, I wish you had the chance to do that at least once.

great song

It's so sad when you compare this song with the songs on Stay Together. The new album is such a generic pop mishmash :(

Here for Amanda Abbington

Such a bittersweet video

genial ustedes!! de chile🇨🇱

lastima que en las últimas canciones bajaron la calidad estos wns :,c

we need this back

I love his voice.

Perfeito!!

What's the significance of the blue door?

+Christopher Walker maybe the step between different stages of life?

The songs almost seem to tell a story. And if they did I'd be reading the books

OMG Amazing band. Amazing song. Amazing Ricky Wilson.

IS THAT MARY FROM SHERLOCK?

+Sarah George I think it's her

+Sarah George Yes Sarah, it is...  Amanda Abbington - married to John Watson in the programme and also to the actor who plays him - Martin Freeman...

No! You got me into Sherlock mindset and I keep seeing the white-suited man at the end as Jonathan Aris's Anderson!

+Ask Martin Freeman Just had to watch it again and do you know but I believe it might be...!

Algum brasileiro aqui? ;-;

Carter's steam fair !!!!!!!

Carter's steam fair !!!!!!!

Guided by Love and a flashlight...

Im addicted to this song❤

I am curious why Ricky has a bruised face in this video, and "Coming Home" and "My Life" videos. Anyone know?

I see! wonder what that means. I;ll have to look it up.sure it has some relevance. too ironic if not.

+forasec he never misses a beat

+RacoonPoloscoon underrated comment of the month

I think he was hit by a car

In 2006, 7-8 years and 3 albums before EEE&W was recorded,

I am fan of Kaiser Chiefs in Thailand.

i like  ricky stile

I can't believe how brilliant this album is!

The same door was used in coming home video? Lol

Did your manager beat you up or something?

I think he got hit by a car

Your songs are the best songs in the world

we love it...mature...soothing...thumbs up!

Son geniales♡♥

Αγαπημένο

Αγαπημένο

has anyone else noticed that in these three music videos of kairser chiefs (meanwhile up in heaven, coming home, my life) they have the same blue door and ricky has a cut on his eyebrow and lip

SHAKY KNEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love this.

Class..!! Luv it..x

love this song <3 This band rules my playlists since 'Employment" came out ;) Unfortunately I had never seen them live, Because I live in Georgia :( definitely I want to coincide my vacation and go check them out (somewhere) :))) I think it'll be one big epic party in my life ^_^

excelent!!!! I love you Kaiser Chiefs!!! rifan-..... chingones

I don't understand because it has so few views. Should have at least 10 million each clip. There are other bands in this range..

HI, Listen up Because I want to keep this brief. we get it. you don't like these new songs because your hipster pride is getting in the way, we get that. but don't come all the way up here just to bash it. leave it be. I've also seen the same said for other bands and their new songs... ON THIS VIDEO! It's insane. don't get me wrong, entitled to your opinion and all that moral bullshit but this is ridiculousness. Grow the fuck up. bands make new songs.  get out of your fucking comfort zone. and just give it a try. again, you've looked up this song and you're writing ' this is shit' in the comments. now you're here. why don't you just give it a few more listens? This song and  'coming come' is catchy, lyrical,  and memorable. I feel that deep nostalgia will be waiting for me years in the future when I come back to listen to this again. 
Perhaps this wasn't so brief.

Totally agree, the new album is amazing and people have to stop being dicks.

@Josephim38 ;)

Brief or not, worth reading.

Love you Ricky!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

very good voice i come from thailand kiki5555555555555555555555

oh,wow -is that amanda abbington? cool)

Love this video too....... Will ricky be on next strictly come dancing series????.???????

Crazy how you guys evolved from predicting riots till coming home. The music now sounds mature. Been an amazing decade following through ...and all these years, still amazing! Come to Indonesia :) x

It's surreal how much Ricky's changed. I remember playing Guitar Hero 3 and discovering the Kaiser Cheifs around 8 years ago, now I'm so nostalgic.

Show MARAVILHOSO em Belo Horizonte 28/01!!! Eu apaixonei pelas músicas. Show muito animado, fez todo mundo pular! Parabéns!

This sounds really good!

How are these not as popular as they used to be, they are so much better than before.
