You cant listen to this without getting chills down your back .. lovely track .. especially on Vinyl .. i bought this when it was first released , loved how GT used it to open their show👏
In 2017, I had life saving surgery. I was house bound for weeks. My sister got me set up with an Amazon Prime account so I could binge some shows. I sat down and watched the first episode of Grand Tour as I loved Top Gear. When this song started, tears came to my eyes and I knew while I had a long road ahead, I was going to be ok. Peace to all, have an awesome day.
Ive just suffered 4 years of crippling Long Codid that has had me bed ridden and last week we seem to have found an almost miracle cure for me. I no longer process salt - we dont know why yet - my sodium level is normal but its not available but 5g of sodium citrate a day and I am NORMAL. Im off to the city centre for the first time in years in about half an hour. I FEEL GREAT. Hang in there mate - you will get through it...!!!
Ive been without a car for 4 years, my own car that is, and tomorrow that is going to change, and thinking about that, that feeling of sublimity alone, fuels me in the same way this song does, which is why when im driving it home this is the song im going to be playing, and to just imagine it, i cant help but let out tears of joy. Thank you grand tour, for giving me that notion to feel it, as i feel every bit of passion for cars and motorsports.
This song and the opening scene of The Grand Tour might just be the most beautiful piece of television I've ever seen. And, as a former full-time TV critic, I've seen one helluva lot.
The trio on the desert driving in a custom *Mustang* *Clarkson* in a *Blue Galpin Rocket 725hp* *Hammond* in a *Red Shelby GT350R* *May* in a *White 2016 Roush Mustang Stage 3*
I'm old school. Not comfortable with most songs post the 90s, but these guys have given this song a different shade. And, a good one too. Love from India.
How's this for a week many years ago. Paul McCartney and Wings that hubby wanted to see. Few days later, Neville Brothers that hubby wanted to see. Finally, Hot house Flowers that I wanted to see, (in Wollongong), and to this day, still one of the best and most exciting shows my hubby agrees it was. GREAT ADAPTION, GREAT BAND. Thank you for one of the best musical nights ever!!!
I first saw HHF live in late 1991 in Canberra, Australia where they supported Dire Straits. It was miserable cold wet weather. Pouring down, soaking wet and near frozen - we loved it. Seeing, hearing, feeling this song in that weather was super. I loved the Home album and it rightfully was #1 in Oz! Awesome and they were the support act! Having just returned from o/s with army a week earlier, it was great to have HHF at home!
The definitive version of this song. Haven’t seen Grand Tour but I can imagine Clarkson charging across a desert with this blaring. Wouldn’t mind doing that myself.
For crying out even louder I state that this version redefines the song thereby making it the definitive version of the song. Rarely does a cover improve on the original but it happens here. Sorry for your indignation.
I would say I can't believe how many people relate this to TGT, but I expected no less. Whatever shows up In November will be absorbed my me none the less.These 3:have a chemistry that can't be duplicated.
It's the nursing along a hard time, finding will to go forward. But the ascension of this track as we are pulled forward is perfection. The piano moving from a minor to a major as the band swells!
Hot house flowers, what a name, loved these guys back in the day, I did gcse Art because they let us wear r earphones, I blasted my eardrums to death to these guys! What a time! Young dumb and it all in front of me!
I found a copy of Hothouse Flowers' 'Home' at a Salvo op shop in perfect condition..... $3... a month ago. It's a brilliant albumn that still holds its own.
I Here clearly Now I hope sunshiny Day means for everybody I love this song I know after raining there's always sunshine greatest song thank you for share this music with us👍👏😊😊🌞
The Hothouse Flowers recorded this cover around 30 years ago, but with the passing of Johnny Nash yesterday, the original artist from the early 60s, I can think of no better tribute to Mr. Nash than the passion and joy the Flowers give this song.
Back in the early 2000s the flowers were playing in Edinburgh. A friend of mine was friends with a couple of them from back in Ireland, she met them after the gig, quite late. Phoned me who worked in a bar not far away and asked if it was alright to bring the boys in as we were just closing, they arrived just as the last punters left & we sat down had a few beers with them behind closed doors. One of the barmaids was from Cork and recognised Liam straight away, "I just about creamed my knickers", I'll nvr forget that comment as long as I live
I can see clearly now, the rain is gone I can see all obstacles in my way Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) Sun-shiny day It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) Sun-shiny day I think I can make it now, the pain is gone All of the bad feelings have disappeared Here is the rainbow I've been prayin' for It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) Sun-shiny day Look all around, there's nothin' but blue skies Look straight ahead, nothin' but blue skies I can see clearly now, the rain is gone I can see all obstacles in my way Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright) Sun-shiny day
I seen them in concert,in a little uni hall.They had made name with Don't go/Eurovision. And I was near the front of crowd,(now this a number of years ago,cough),and right in the mosh pit,was straight in front of band....man,once they go with the music,it just part of this organic group that ,u had no choice to go with them....usual steam rising from us at front....I jumped,sang and cheered my way from start to finish,it was fantastic concert and I've spent my life seeing concerts,I've seen too many bands to remember,no big thing,it was just my main interest I would love(hobby). Anyway I literally had to wait until ppl had ,pulled themselves away a row at a time. I found my boyfriend at the time waiting nr side of hall.....omg ,I love this band,as they give me a memory that stayed with me.....but I knew I was sweating a bit(ahem)...but I was soaked through including my jacket,jeans sticking to me,god knows wot hair looked like,and steam coming of me still...We both laughed,I can having one saving grace,there were no mobile phones with cameras bk then,thank god lol...love their cover,been playing it on loop. When I seen offical vid,I was looking at him thinking, omg,he hasn't got a day older,wow. Then a real duh moment,yeah older vid lol.
