Lyrics
I don’t have to leave anymore
What I have is right here
Spent my nights and days before
Searching the world for what’s right here
Underneath and unexplored
Islands and cities I have looked
Here I saw
Something I couldn’t over look
I am yours now
So now I don’t ever have to leave
I’ve been found out
So now I’ll never explore
See what I’ve done
That bridge is on fire
Go back to where I’ve been
I’m froze by desire
No need to leave
Where would I be
If this were to go under
It’s a risk I’d take
I’m froze by desire
As if a choice I'd make
I am yours now
So now I don’t ever have to leave
I’ve been found out
So now I’ll never explore
So now I’ll never explore

so ahead of its time. This whole album sounds incredible even in 2021.
Cxxx
It's so unique in how it sounds. Sure it fits into a genre, but it's not like where you go, "ah yeah this sound was popular from 200X to 200X or ah yeah, sounds like a song from early [era]." I think those bold, simple riffs on the guitar that cut through everything really contributes. It's not just some droning rythm in the background. It plays really well with the vocals.
Nothing is ever ahead of its time. Especially not in 2009. There had been music a great deal more complicated and whatever else a long long time before this came along. I loved this album but to say it was ahead of it's time is just ridiculous.
@@darrenlamb5640 I agree
Word
" I've been found so now I'll never explore " I love those lyrics.
+Treven Ray I've been found -out-" Caught cheating?
The way I take it is that she found someone who's found her and loves her but now she realizes she'll never explore different relationships.
Treven Ray exactly
But if you are happy, you don't have to explore. As a reference I'm really happy with my girlfriend and I don't want to leave her or to explore.
@@svezinamorawhen you’re young and haven’t explored life, you will regret not being able to explore more
10 years later.. Proving this is a timeless song
"I am yours now, so now I don't ever have to leave / I've been found out, so now I'll never explore" This like a couple of the XX's songs seems to be about conflicting aspects of a romantic relationship; while in the beginning everything fits together perfectly and the lyrics echo the sentiment of being fulfilled - "I don't have to leave anymore, all I have is right here / spent my nights and days before, searching the world for what's right here" - over the course of time things start to break down. The middle part of the song seems to be about questioning the relationship; "That bridge is on fire back the way I came... where would I be if this were to go under" doesn't suggest a commitment out of love, but more out of routine and the difficulty of ending things and/or finding something new. By the end the hook takes on a bit of a darker meaning to me, "so now I don't ever have to leave" sounds more like resignation to a life sentence than an expression of contentment.
I always interpreted the song as finding "the one" and being completely devoted to someone, rather than resigning yourself to the relationship. "That bridge is on fire..." symbolises, to me, never wanting to go back to the time or life you had before meeting this person you're with. "Where would I be if this were to go under?" to me, is thinking out loud "where would I be without you" and wondering how you'd cope if the relationship ended because this other person is absolutely everything to you "but that's the risk I take" to be with the person. "I am yours now, so now I don't ever have to leave" as they are both singing this together toward the end of the song I always take this as a reassurance from both sides, to each other, that we pretty much belong together and it doesn't have to change if we don't let shit get in the way.
Delroy ... Choices for sure... Love art that means something different to many and so cool when another sees the art I see. Never going to leave him.
Delroy the hint that it might not be the case is the line “so now I’ll never explore”, it’s not sang with love or relieve, but more like a realization that they will never get to explore and try new things, they’re stuck....
The first time you hear "So now I'll never explore", you think it's about finding the right one and you don't have to search for better anymore. When you hear it after the second verse, you slowly understand that she is trapped in his love for her, so finding another one and breaking up with him, as much as she wants to, can be extremely difficult for her AND for him. You can also hear the beat slowly deteriorating. Time after time, you hear reversed samples and unnecessary bass lines that just don't sound right. Such a creative track!
Psychoactive
when the guys voice comes in on that line...eargasm
Heywud Jablome ugh yes
omg yes...I freaking love his voice so much. good gawd

Only here because of Daniela Andrades cover and I could not disagree with you more. This shits traaash.
@@emilyelliott6770 BF
Add me to the list of people obsessed with this video.
Manuel Pereira Right in line behind you brother.
Manuel Pereira ok
totally agree with you dude!
I'm obsessed with the song.
Manuel Pereira xx
That final scene with the last dancer never fails to give me the chills
i know right
Quarantine got me listening to these guys again, anyone else?
Yess me too!
the xx takes me back
here I am. (Italy)
I was watching a random KZhead video and the background music was “heart skipped a beat” by xx and it brought back so many memories. I completely forgot about them until that video!
Me too
This video is a masterpiece. Whoever had this idea is a genius. Each character has a role and each scene changes very subtly, but extremely strong. Executed very well.
Wkrh
It's so simple and I'm sure it didn't cost a fortune to make but it's still such a great video.
that's when you know why they make cast subtitles by movies afterwards
Saam Farahmand. His work is awesome
I don't have to leave anymore 我再也不必離開 What I have is right here 我擁有的就在這裡 Spend my nights and days before Searching the world for what's right here 之前我耗費日日夜夜探索這個世界， 就是為了這個。 Underneath and unexplored 地底下和未探測到的 Islands and cities I have looked 我曾觀察過的島嶼和城市 Here I saw Something I couldn't over look 在這我所看見了一些無法忽視的東西 I am yours now 現在我是你的了 So now I don't ever have to leave 因此我再也不需要離開 I've been found out 我被找到了 So now I'll never explore 因此我將不用再探索。 See what I've done 看看我曾經做的 That bridge is on fire 那座橋梁在火裡燃燒 Going back to where I've been 往回走到我曾經待過的地方 I'm froze by desire 我愣住了，因為熱切的慾望 No need to leave Where would I be 不需要離開我將在的地方 If this were to go under 如果這裡將沉沒， It's a risk I'd take 這是我要承受的風險 I'm froze by desire 我愣住了，因為熱切的慾望 As if a choice I'd make 像是假設我做了一個選擇 I am yours now 現在我是你的了 So now I don't ever have to leave 因此我再也不需要離開 I've been found out 我被找到了 So now I'll never explore 因此我將不用再探索。
12 years later this is still and incredible peice of art! Truely timeless.
10 años después la vuelvo a escuchar y sigue siendo un hit!
So true dude
... 2016 and this song is STILL brilliant
David Badiola and 2019
This video and song in my opinion is a masterpiece, the idea of relationships being like islands and the bridge to the previous being set on fire. The video with the subtle changes in girls dancers representing her love fading while the guy for most of the song continues along obliviously until she finally has left... Then the final dance with just the girl who would dance with the guy at the back dancing by herself while the set burns around her representing that the guy was still in love with her but it's over now... That's what I've taken from it anyway, literally a masterpiece.
+Stephen Holmes That's pretty much what I picked up form the visuals, too. I prefer subtle progression to blatant visual indicators; narratively I think of secret lovers or cheaters who were clearly in the wrong relationship to begin with as the bridge to the old island slowly crumbles. But now they've been found out, they belong to eachother, so there is no more slipping away back home to the old partner. They burn, but they burn together
+Little Wolf Taima The repetition could also represent cycles of multiple failed relationships, rather than just the decline of one, emphasising how THIS ONE is 'it' whether it's right or wrong
+Little Wolf Taima the repetitions could also mean the sequence of love. we experience it as something repetitive yet we love that person so that repetition wont easily bore us. the dancers in my perspective represent emotions and love. then the changes in the repetition shows us how love for others will slowly fade will the other one doesnt.
Little Wolf Taima YES! Body language says so much.
Hmm, the video is definitely about the end of a relationship. But that's a rather surface level reading of the lyrics. I think "i have been found out" talks about the inherent fear in any relationship that this is it, you will no longer explore (date). It's a bittersweet realization that the voice won't date anymore, a realization that comes with a lot of anxiety that often leads to cold feet. We are all islands exploring until we begin a relationship, then we lose some of our individuality.
I really need to stop reading comments. The amount of braindead idiots complaining about how the video is "repetitive" is fucking alarming. I didn't even think this video was that difficult to understand, yet no one seems to see how it compliments the song beautifully and brilliantly. I guess no one gets what the song is about either. My entire life revolves around music and I've seen countless music videos from every genre, yet this is one of the only music videos that always makes me tear up every time I watch it.
i feel ya
This music video is repetitive!
Lol well its not like the people are accusing you of 9-11 if it makes you that frustrated that people saying a video thats repetitive is repetitive , you sir have failed in life , if that makes your vagina itch the amount of sand that has been storing in your clitoris since pre-historic era ;D
Bambi X Was that supposed to be English? What a pathetic attempt at trolling. You shouldn't use such a potty mouth when your mommy might be around, she was nice enough to let you use the computer after all.
Gunide Verasin The dancing appears to be repetitive, but if you are watching closely nothing is ever the same. This video was very well done! Thank you XX!
The xx: yeah we just need you to dance an 8 second routine Dancers: oh great easy money The xx: Ya we just need you to do it 16 times with miniscule differences Dancers:
Was an awful lot more than sixteen...lol
1:05-1:36 is the best part of this entire song
i like all song ò.ò
true
repeat is the best part ;)
This video is so conceptual. I love it.
Same here! A true work of art ain't it?
i know is beatiful ♡
+Mitchell Steckbauer same director?
+Mitchell Steckbauer Hmm, it's a repeated camera move instead of a continuous one, contains focal length distortion from a lens and represents a real space instead of a highly abstract flat perspective from compositing footage, has choreographed dances that make up the majority of the video's content instead of differentiating clips of a single performance, and the story (abstract as it may be) actually has an arc that changes and has an ending. Yeah, it's not a copy in any way, shape, or form.
+Flubly Ikr. The only thing that's even remotely the same is the camera is moving backward. Lol.
They can't decide if they want to buy that couch lol
Omg dead
Theres so much angst on this couch, let us sit in these different positions
oh...I shouldn't read your comment,now this video can only make me laugh
lglp3 did someone light a smoke whilst on the couch. look at what you've done. >:(
lglp3 [1:33] Jamie: "Ugh...the repitition's frying my brain!" [1:41] Oliver: (to front guy) "She didn't really like you, did she?" Front guy: "...uh-huh." O: "Feeling bad for you, man." [1:49] Romy: "Don't these dancers get tired of the same routine?" [1:55] Romy: "My God, when will these crazy dancers ever end." [2:05] Jamie: "Somebody kill me from this madness." Romy: "We'll get there, boys...the misery will be over. Soon." [2:19] Romy: "Screw this artsy garbage, I'm outta here. Oliver, you too."
This gets more powerful every time I see it.
I'm so confused how anyone could miss the message & beauty in this video. It's a masterpiece. a perfect representation of human relationships & the many emotions we might be left with when they end. we just can't always let go & move on. even if the one we holding on to is already long gone..
It is so sad that when the people gradually stop dancing, there is some other dancer, who clearly wants to continue, but can't really, because of this other person. And at last only one remain oblivious of the fact that "it's over". I know that feeling far too well.
Per Nielsen o
does your mom still dance?
Me too... :,(
the point is you keep dancing even when nobody else is and even if your oblivious to the harsher reality crumbling around you. Just keep dancing... even when the house burns all around you 😅😊🖤
Artistic masterpiece. You've got to watch the video 4 or 5 times, each time put your focus on a different point of sight (the dancers in the back, the dancers at the front, the band members, the lights,...) to fully recognise the brilliance of it.
this is the best music video I ever seen
+Gibeom Lee Must of spent lot of money for that video...
+Pavlin Petkov Honestly I don't think it would have cost as much as some. Most rappers can spend a million on a video alone and all this would be is wages for 8 dances, set cost and then production costs. I think it'd be under 150k, not bad for a video.
+Scott Redford Why'd you use rappers as an example? Lol
+Cant think of a name right now ask Kanye. most rappers feel that their standing is measures by possessions, especially jewellery. that a rapper has to douse themselves in jewellery and show diamonds and shit during video clips to get any respect and that it's a problem. look up "why most rappers are broke" on KZhead, you'll see what I mean
Scott Redford That's a little stereotypical though, don't you think? I know many rappers that don't show their bling on screen aside from kanye Edit: k nvm you have evidence, but still sounds stereotypical to me
These youngsters will never know the magnitude of this track when it first dropped. Game-changer, forreal.
I'm pretty sure i've watched this like 20 times now lol. Looking for all the subtle changes in each "repetition" if you can call it that. The mood changes gradually from start to finish and there are major relationship altering events expressed in subtle changes to facial expressions or hesitations in the dance. I love it. I didn't even know I was into this sort of music but I love this, I'm in. Ty PBS Idea Channel for the introduction.
I did the same exact thing lol
G11B best art in thr world speaks to your heart and soul in a very personal matter... Not specify what the artist felt.
If you dont get the video just read how i watched it "Wow this vid is great!" "Is it gonna repeat like this? "Nothing is changing..." Towards the end "Woah. I didnt even noticed people were leaving... now the vid is over." Some people cant appreciate something until its over. Relationships are the same...
I don't have to leave anymore What I have is right here Spend my nights and days before Searching the world for what's right here Underneath and unexplored Islands and cities I have looked Here I saw Something I couldn't over look I am yours now So now I don't ever have to leave I've been found out So now I'll never explore See what I've done That bridge is on fire Going back to where I've been I'm froze by desire No need to leave Where would I be If this were to go under That's a risk I'd take I'm froze by desire As if a choice I'd make And I am yours now So now I don't ever have to leave I've been found out So now I'll never explore And I am yours now (I am yours now) So now I don't ever have to leave (ever have to leave) I've been found out (I've been found out) So now I'll never explore So now I'll never explore

Wow are people seriously complaining about the video? I think its the best goddamned part. It's the onyl reason why i keep coming here instead of listening to the song on itunes. Whoever came up with it is a real genius imo.
My first love introduced me to the xx, he passed on. Being only in my 20s I had to continue with life and build a new life but the xx brings back sweet memories I'll cherish forever ✨
And no one is ever really lost
ISLAS -- Ya no tengo que irme.... Lo que tengo está aquí... Antes pasaba noches y días buscando en el mundo lo que está aquí.... Por debajo y sin explorar Islas y ciudades he mirado.... Aquí vi algo que no puedo ignorar.... Soy tuya ahora... Así que ahora nunca tendré que irme.. He sido encontrada.... Así que ahora nunca exploraré... Mira lo que he hecho... Ese puente está ardiendo.... Y así he estado yo... Estoy congelada por el deseo No hace falta que me vaya.... Donde estaría si estoy se fuera abajo.. Es un riesgo que correré... Estoy congelada por el deseo... Como si fuera una elección que hice.... Soy tuya ahora... Así que ahora nunca tendré que irme... He sido encontrada... Así que ahora nunca exploraré... Así que ahora nunca exploraré ...
Absolutely love the super subtle changes: how the X light becomes dimmer each time, how they start disappearing one by one, and how the couple very gradually grows apart to the point of 'fed-upness' ... a song I can really relate to
Truely a masterpiece
BILLbilly01 im going to have to agree with you on that one bikky
Easy all stars

my tumblr days
My college days ..
Think I was about 14-15 yrs old… 30 now lol
@Mungo658 can't believe we're really 30 now 😢 where has the time gone....
I actually really dig the video , I find it uniquley artistic ... and for the song? Well you already know :)
Why do I always think of water when I listen to this?
Maximus Garcia islands?
Maximus Garcia lol me too
Maximus Garcia Because "Chained" Music Video?
Maximus Garcia Because water can carry tonal frequencies that physically change. Much like certain sound waves vibrate through the liquids in our bodies. Or some science shit like that. Im high...
+Maximus Garcia this song is smooth and flows likes water. it envelopes you, and while you're submerged, you feel suspended and calm. this song is cleansing.
The lip timing for this video is so amazing
Ten years later, this has proven to be a unique piece of art.
this is one of my favourite music videos ever, tbh
its 2016 and i'm still obsessed with this song
damn i never realized it was from 2010
Who watching this now? ( 2019 ) 💙😴
The video illustrates the gradual loss of interest from the girl, her feelings for that person are gradually going, the kisses become less meaningful, her eyes stay open when they kiss closer to the end while his are fully closed. He's in love, she's coming out of it. Then its cheek kisses and then she leaves. I have only just realized this.
thank you!
Same
Yup knw it all to well the same😔
based on what you said, i believe that he's showing to us that one side has never loved the other too, that relashionship had never the true love from a side
That bridge is on fire Going back to where I've been I'm froze by desire No need to leave Where would I be If this were to go under It's a risk I'd take I'm froze by desire As if a choice I'd make
I love this fucking song. I love the xx, best band ever ❤
+Alison Megan me TOOO!
1ل
Alison Megan Amazing vid! Great band....2 voices that come together as one!
محمود النوام Cool
I feel like this video represent a group of friends falling appart slowly. They keep doing the same things over and over until people start leaving. They continue dancing, even when there's no point to it anymore.
the 6 people dancing doesn't represent 6 different people, it represents their relationship as a whole. The blonde woman slowly distances herself from the man and eventually they break up, the other 4 people represent their commitment to the relationship/their love for eachother. At least that's my take on it, it's still art though so everyone finds their own meaning in it.
Офигеть, уже 10 лет прошло. Crystalised, night time и islands стояли на звонке по порядку. Нереальная ностальгия, и греет душу мысль, что я любила их ещё до того, как они стали такими популярными 😌
last scene gets me crying everytime with the dancer going in slow motion one last time through the moves :( peace and love from nyc, hope I get to see them live soon
Oh god, the video kinda made me sad 😢
Still here listening in 2019.... I miss good music like this
The best music vid ever if for me. I cry every time when they bacame alone. Just so emotionally intense !
definitely one of my favorites from the album... i love how this depicts how over time people's relationships can disintegrate.
This video is literally genius. Watching the first seconds I was like “what?” But then I noticed the artists singing, the band making minuscule movements in the same theme as the lyrics or melody change, the dancers changing (which is so clever btw). I CANNOT stop watching this video it’s literally amazing
This video is so iconic I absolutely love it, I also can't wait for the new album they're working on right now
nori de groot how is it ironic? Do you know what irony is?
Epic Screen name iconic, not ironic bro
StItcH XI I musta been lit when I posted this comment lol
love the song, love the video. after listening to this song, i always feel better
i thought my laptop was broken for a sec
Lolololol
Nora anderson kkkkkkkkk
2024 and still come back to this whenever I’m in my feelings. truly a timeless song.
not sure if this is how the xx wanted us to perceive this song, but I rly think the video coincides with the song. the song rly means something completely different with the music video. years ago when i first heard this song i thought what a romantic song but if u listen closely there isn't any emotion when she sings the chorus it's just stating that she is his/hers and that they will be together for ever. but personally what i think this all means (when u include the video) is that a false promise is being made. sort of like young relationships/young love. you think you'll be with your first love or partner forever and that you'll never have to leave them or "explore" aka look & find love in someone else which in someways can hurt an individual because they are being restricted. u see in the video that the blonde female dancer slowly is drifting away, but she's being held tight by this promise she made about loving her partner forever. on the other hand, the song could literally just be a love song and the video is just another creatively beautiful way for views to not only be left questioning the video but the song's meaning itself. rly makes you think.
what a fucking cool music video
Note to songwriters. Study the simplicity and interplay of the elements and the incredible mixing of the vulnerable vocals. They sit perfectly.
Still amazing and such great choreography....it's 2021 and I'm still falling asleep to this since 2010
La verdad es que desconocía de la existencia de the xx hasta que escuche la versión que Shakira hizo de la canción y comencé a buscar mas de su música ahora agradezco por haberlos encontrado
When this song came out I started a relationship and became one of favorites. Many broken hearts later I realized what the lyrics really meant and the song means alot more to me now.
Work Harder. Get a Car. I love Top Gear! :)
The creativity from the 60’s, 70’s & 80’s has largely disappeared from music. It has popped up occasionally since and when it did The xx grabbed it all. What an incredibly unique band!
How can something so good be so underrated?
Imagine being the actors in this video having to do that many takes
I love listening to this album, especially this song, when I'm alone at night, sitting on the couch with lights out, a candle lit, sipping on some blueberry wine. This is the kind of song you just don't want to end.
I remember findings this back in highschool and completely forgetting about it until now...It's so freakin' good
how can somebody dislike such a masterpiece?
I forgot how much I love the choreography in this video.
THE XX, EU NECESSITO DE NOVAS MÚSICAS! NÃO FAÇAM ISSO COM MINHA VIDA. EU SEI TODAS AS MÚSICAS DE VOCÊS DE TRÁS PRA FRENTE. SE VOCÊS GRAVASSEM NOVAS MÚSICAS DO JEITO INCRÍVEL QUE VOCÊS FAZEM, EU E MUITOS OUTROS FÃS FICARIAM IMENSAMENTE FELIZES! SEI QUE NINGUÉM VAI LER O QUE TÁ ESCRITO AQUI, MAS... NUNCA TE PEDI NADA... :'(
Love her lisp
+James Collins thanks for introducing me to Autumn on a different video, I'll be telling my friends about the band
heard this playing from outside my window when I woke up, thought "ah they have good taste in music" and quickly came here. love the song for many years now, didn't listen in a while it's still amazing
The dancing pair in the background shows the couple's physical interaction, while the pair sitting in the front depict the emotional interaction. The pair in both the front and back are in unison initially. As the song continues, though, the girl in the front stops dancing and eventually leaves, and soon so does the man. But the couple in the background is still dancing until near the end. This means that while couple lost interest in the relationship, it still went through the motions in a desperate attempt to rekindle the love they once had. They fail. Basically the song is talking about how relationships can fail when a couple falls into a pattern of monotony that has no variation or passion.
tl;dr
Holy shit nice diagnosis, so does that mean the two who were pulling on the physical dancers were affairs?
I was thinking that was possible. It's always open for interpretation. Someone could come up with a completely different idea and still be correct. But thanks for the compliment :)
Gab J I like to think they were their temptations. And sometimes we fall for temptations and they end up winning in the end. At least that's why I think the girl was the only one left at the end. My own little piece of mind lol
Thank you!
The XX always takes me to a place that i love but i cant describe
El video es una obra maestra. La canción sigue sonando igual de novedosa que 10 años atrás.
this music video is probably my favourite ever, it's so good and must have taken a long time to perfect, every time I watch it I notice something different in the scenes❤️
Probably one of the coolest music videos I've ever seen! I wonder how long it took them to make this.
Treven Ray xxx.blu.flm
Xxx.plam
wow i never realized it wasn't the same clip over and over again
yes it is
Somehow me either
+Brianna Marquez its actually just a very well choreographed piece, you can see there's small changes each time, so it turns out it isn't actually the same clip over and over, just lots of skill and timing. Neat, huh. Pretty seamless too
Living Tar ahhh cool
It's not ! Some scenes are changed in the slightest until near the end when it's different every time, & you can notice the dancers narrating the lyrics as well which is pretttty cool! :)
imagine laying in the grass with your significant other sharing headphones and listening to this?
Everyone will interpret this video differently but to me it's pretty clear how it's about two couples falling out of love for different circumstances. The one in the front because they're growing apart probably because of routine, the part where he keeps trying alone at first and then painfully realizes she doesn't want to anymore it's heartbreaking. The one in the back because of third parties who don't really love them but still succeed in breaking them up, that's why in the end the girl keeps doing the same as if she didn't care at all about the damage she made. It's beautiful, I fell in love with this song again after years of forgetting it existed.
3 months late but good interpretation i always wondered why her routine never changed to the end even after he left probably because she was never invested in any of it anyway
Pure magic
I feel bad for the 4K ppl that disliked this. Their taste of music must suck
I forgot all about this song but I still remember the words. Love this song
The way the choreography slowly unravels as it repeats... Great imagery.
Obrigada, as musicas de vocês organiza minha cabeça, abafa os pensamentos, alivia a tensão, quase uma droga.
Xxxx
Xxxxx
This has to be one of the greatest music videos of all times.
Almost every speaker I own seems to believe there are incredibly low frequencies in this song. This song is bassier than almost all rap I've heard.
I've listened to this song for years This is the first time I've seen the video, it's amazing, visually stunning
2010?! has it been that long?
freaking took me forever to see that they were changing seats every new scene
How tf did 3k people dislike this? This is fire asf but brings back bad memories but still a masterpiece
If you see this ❤ ... I am yours now ...

"Islands" I don't have to leave anymore What I have is right here Spend my nights and days before Searching the world for what's right here Underneath and unexplored Islands and cities I have looked Here I saw Something I couldn't over look I am yours now So now I don't ever have to leave I've been found out So now I'll never explore See what I've done That bridge is on fire Going back to where I've been I'm froze by desire No need to leave Where would I be If this were to go under That's a risk I'd take I'm froze by desire As if a choice I'd make I am yours now So now I don't ever have to leave I've been found out So now I'll never explore [x2] So now I'll never explore
2022 never gets old 🙅♂ Masterpiece.
2023 still here
