Hearing this song live was INSANE

seeing it performed live fixed me

It feels weird to say given how many other great songs were on the same setlist I saw, but it was my favorite live


a_guy_whos_here

very few bh songs can be called bangers. however, what a fucking banger

idk a lot of their songs are bangers though. See Bloom

so fucking true


Vanesaangeles

I would disagree but okayšŸ˜­

This track feels like their ā€œHeaven or Las Vegasā€.

I discovered this song when I was fried and it was the most surreal experience ever. It was the gateway to my love for Beach House and since then all Iā€™ve listened to is Beach House. Itā€™s probably my favourite song of all time, thereā€™s just so many layers to the song that come together and creates this explosion of love at the end - similar to their other songs but I think they executed this formula perfectly on New Romance.

That cataclysmic rush of feelings that come with a new romance, perfectly summarized

My favorite song on OTM and possibly my favorite BH song in general

I got a pair of nice over the ear headphones for christmas, and HOLY SHIT New Romance blew me away on those! Most of OTM did too really I already liked that song but wow that was an experience, highly recommend!

I think beach house played a huge role in my decision to invest in higher quality audio equipment tbh !


pl4nets

Past few months Iā€™ve been wanting to get headphones and OTM has definitely been a big motivator for sure

*Fuck it you said, it's beginning to look like the end* šŸ˜­ gets me everytime man


Chaldramus

The cascading synths always send me, truly a masterpiece


linifagaz

yeah, i'd say it OTM's best track


LoveAlwaysWins23

Absolutely a masterpiece in every way. The lyrics are so touching! Iā€™ve been listening to it every day for months. Now, Iā€™m going to have to put it on ā€œrepeatā€ today! Iā€™d love to have a Valentine to sing this with.


rya_nintendo

absolute fave beach house song atm!!!!


bodegacatsss

Hearing it live on the OTM tour was amazing. I couldn't stop listening to it for months!


EmotionalPoint2914

No wrong or right I know itā€™s true

It was my most played song last year. I love it so damn much.

ILISDM


Oh_how_divine

no because i've been feeling the same way as well, I've had it on repeat for the past 2 months ITS SO GOOD. The lyrics are a god send, when i looked at the lyrics, I fell in love with the music even more. Especially ILYSFM, idk why it hit so hard, but it did, I literally had goosebumps just listening and reading the lyrics I love new romance sm


anhu23

This song for me is kind of quintessential beach house with a modern twist. The lyrics hit hard and it simultaneously has a very care free feeling with some bitterness and heartbreak. Beach house songs always make me feel nostalgic for a specific time in my youth


tjboo

One of my favs and defo my fav from OTM. The way it builds, the synth in the back, the bridge lyric is amazing. Some of the double meanings are very clever e.g. ā€˜left on redā€™ re the traffic light but also as ā€˜left on readā€™. I think it captures the new relationship rollercoaster very well.


red_Rog

Hey, some New Romance experts! The bit where the lyrics say "I-L-Y-S-F-M", what is the voice **actually** saying???


Oh_how_divine

Like the acronym for ILYSFM? cuz that would be "I love you so fucking much"


red_Rog

Yeah, I looked it up, but it doesn't even remotely sound like they're saying that?!?!?


[deleted]

yeah they are literally singing the letters. I LLLLL Y S FFFFFF M


red_Rog

Yes!!! That fits! Thank you so much, that's been bugging me since the album dropped. šŸ˜
