Lou Smith Late to the party with time stamps, yes. Trust me when I say I’ve been watching your bcnr videos for months. Kendall Jenner is tied with Sunglasses for my favorite song and I was going to timestamp it so I didn’t forget its place in the video, but just winded up timestamping the set as a whole.

Haha. I was just having a little joke with you referencing some lyrics. Thanks for that and I'm glad my vids have been a source of perennial pleasure for you. I hope I can get to see and film them again, though they're signed now which often causes copyright strikes on my uploads. I get quite a bit of leeway, as many bands have had some great exposure from appearing on my channel, but not always.

Yeah! I was listening to that. I idly thought that there'd be a few extra people passing this way, as there really isn't much of their stuff online. They're playing tomorrow night, so I am hoping to grab a chunk more of their set. They've been topping my most watched list for three or four months now, dislodging Black Midi from the top three places, and with some radio play, they could go ballistic, as their parent band was poised to. Come back in a few days to check out some more.

Haha! All of the musicians here have probably had relatively privileged upbringings with access to a good education, including music. There’s always a class element to British society and often an inverse snobbery that goes with it when it comes to pop culture. I guess the op was saying that it’s unusual for people from that background to have the intensity of experience to draw on to write and perform great songs that are relevant across class lines.
