Humour's "I Knew We'd Talk about it One Day": A Meditative Look at Regret

Humour is a Glasgow-based rock quintet that formed during the 2021 lockdowns. The band's members met while studying at university and began writing and recording music at home. Their sound is a powerful blend of off-kilter post-punk, post-hardcore, and an almost erratic indie-pop sensibility. The band is known for its unhinged and theatrical vocal delivery, often exploring themes of anxiety, identity, and dread through surreal and absurd lyrical imagery. The lineup includes vocalist Andreas Christodoulidis, guitarists Jack Lyall and Ross Patrizio, bassist Lewis Doig, and drummer Ruairidh Smith.

Released on August 8, 2025, "I Knew We'd Talk about it One Day" is a track from Humour's debut album, Learning Greek. The song is a brooding and atmospheric piece that confronts a past mistake and the inevitability of facing it. The lyrics are a raw and introspective monologue from a character who is haunted by regret, with lines like "I did something I regret it" repeated throughout. The song's slow, tense build-up, and its use of a fading memory of "Charisse and Kelly in a back lot," contribute to a feeling of dread and unease, making it a compelling and melancholic centerpiece of the album.
