  General Comment:think they might be asking their fans for "on more chance" after the reception to intimacy?

  General Comment:these are the correct lyrics. these are definate because they are on the offical bloc party website, check yourself if you dont believe me.
  
  One More Chance
  Give me one more chance
  Give me one more chance
  Give me one more chance to love you
  Give me one more chance
  Give me one more chance
  Give me one more chance to love you
  
  So open the door and calm down
  Can't you see that I'm trying
  
  Don't say another word about the other boy
  Can't you see that I'm dying
  This time things will be different
  And you're gonna see
  This time things will be different
  And you're gonna see, see
  These hands will come around
  You'll love their touch again
  This time things will be different
  And you're gonna see, see
  
  Give me one more chance
  Give me one more chance
  Give me one more chance to love you
  Give me one more chance
  Give me one more chance
  Give me one more chance to love you
  
  So open the door and calm down
  Can't you see that I'm trying
  
  Don't say another word about the other boy
  Can't you see that I'm dying
  This time things will be different
  And you're gonna see
  This time things will be different
  And you're gonna see, see
  These hands will come around
  You'll love their touch again
  This time things will be different
  And you're gonna see, see
  
  Give me one more chance
  Give me one more chance
  Give me one more chance
  Give me one more chance
  Give me one more chance
  Give me one more chance to love you
  
  This time things will be different
  And you're gonna see
  This time things will be different
  And you're gonna see, see
  These hands will come around
  You'll love their touch again
  This time things will be different
  And you're gonna see, see

  My Interpretation:This is definately a grower. First heard it on Zane Lowe's and didn't really care for it. Then I seen them playing it live a couple of times (on TV, not seen them properly yet) and I started liking it, and now I've got it on repeat :)
  
  The meaning's fairly straightforward; the singer/author/narrator, whatever, had messed up a relationship and is asking for one more chance with the other half.
  In response to hitoki354, I think the video is about lifestyle choices, since the characters seem kinda odd (except the keyboard man, he's epic) and Kele, Matt, Russell and Gordon are taking the role of people who have mocked these odd characters and taking a chance to get to know them better. That's not exactly how I want to put it but it's the best I can come up with.
  Any thoughts?

  General Comment:i dont mind the song, i think it is growing on me.. but i think older bloc party albums were better. Intimacy Bloc Party really went down the party/club music direction, but i dont think there was as much variation in their songs, they seem to be steering in another direction to Intimacy but off from old albums, thats how i kind of see it. i think i was almost repeating myself, but yeah much prefer previous albums, but thats just my opinion.

  General Comment:I think the video is about all the things we do to try and get one one more chance from our lovers. Matt's 'lover' playing keyboard for him. Kele's dolling herself up for him. Russel's dancing and Gordon's lover willing to do ouji with him. But I could be wrong; i supppose we'd jsut have to ask the bloc themselves.
