Foals - Life Is Yours
A rebirth which points the way towards a new era for Foals.
About This Track
‘Miami’ by Foals is a 2010 alternative track from ‘Total Life Forever’. The lyrics cast a lover’s promise in vivid, watery images, then sour it into abandonment and pleading, with a repeated question about whether someone will be there for the speaker. A single turn of phrase, “I watched you swim away”, captures the moment the promise fails, while the closing line hints at a day dimming under black light. The emotional register is raw, immediate, and insistently forward-looking, even as the song already knows it may come to nothing.
"Miami" is a single by Foals, from the album Total Life Forever, released 6th May 2010. The track is 3:42 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 20 articles about Foals.

Foals are a band who thrive in the seas of change. Reliably brilliant.

The band have been playing new material on the road of late, specifically this sounds-like-an-absolute-banger 'Black Bull', which you can check out now.

You know the sort of shows that should need planning permission for the spectacle they’re about to put on? That’s what Foals thrive on. In that raw and fizzing setting, where anything goes, and all that’s there is a band in their prime laying it all out - the ultimate distillation of the primal spir
Assured, varied and sure of stride, Foals only make good albums, and they’re halfway to a great one.
