I was in high school when this came out. I heard it once on the radio and loved it, but never knew who sang it. I used to listen to their older stuff back then, go figure. I didn't find out it was Echo until 2019
Such a well-crafted pop song. A shame that it fell through the cracks in terms of radio airplay when it came out in 1997. This should have the big crossover hit in the U.S. that the band had been waiting for.
I LOVED this song when I heard it here in the US in the 90's (the good old days) - bought the album & absolutely loved it (I love Evergreen) - especially loved Mac's voice on it - heard they had a lot of old stuff that i was eager to check out - actually was CRUSHED when I discovered they were the band who had put out Lips Like Sugar cuz I was looking forward to hearing more stuff like Evergreen (Mac sounded soooo different in the 80's) ...yada yada... the Bunnymen have been arguably my favorite band now for 25 years with Heaven Up Here, Porcupine, & Ocean Rain right up at the top of my all time favorite albums! haha Can't wait to see all their shows in Texas next week!!!!!! They're the best!!!
I really wish I'd grown up in this era! What happened to all the good music? If you like Echo & the Bunnymen definitely check out "Lost in this world" by The Urban Foxes.
I checked out that Urban Foxes song and it can't hold a candle to the Bunnymen. The UK needs to get over this spoken sing-song thing everyone is trying to do. It's a flash in the pan.
Me109❤❤❤ cracking band and video i saw a me109 when i was sat in a layby near torness power station dunbar i heard it coming a mile away after watching battle of britain a million times lol he done a victory roll when he saw me lol
i hated watching all of my favorite 80s bands floundering in the 90s, changing their sounds to try to appeal to the new fans and star "Relevant" to i don't know who. don't get me wrong i like the song but lets get real, the look and sound like they are trying to reach the Oasis crowd.
@@nivagsmada2854 Ian McCulloch was really into Nirvana at the time of this LP. And Foo Fighters had already put out two albums by the time this LP was issued
@@nivagsmada2854 Gavin you are correct, Echos formed way before Foo Fighters - but that doesn't mean they can't be inspired by a group or genre of music that came to be after them. "I want to be there" is clearly inspired by the Foo Fighters sound - Alternative Rock/Post Grunge.
