When I first heard this, I was so impressed that I told my mum and dad, I told all of my friends again and again and again, I even drove them round the bend, but none of them understood how great it was. I thought everyone would be talking about it - but they weren't. Their loss.
Neil Hannon is a fuckin' songwriting genius! There are "artists" with 1/100 of his talent who achieve 100 times more success than he does. What kind of a world do we live in....

We have a swing band and we were thinking "What can we play as a slow song?? It's gotta have personality!" ....and I ended up remembering this CLASSIC :D
Everybody knows that I love you Everybody knows that I need you Everybody knows that I do, except you I told the stars above About the one I love I told the morning sun Yeah I’m telling everyone I told my mum and dad They seemed to understand And I’ll get through to you If it’s the last thing that I do Everybody knows that I love you Everybody knows that I need you Everybody knows that I do, except you Everybody knows that I live for you Everybody knows that I adore you Everybody knows that it’s true, except you I told all of my friends Again and again and again I drove them round the bend So now you’re my only friend I told the passers by I made a small boy cry And I’ll get through to you If it’s the last thing that I do ‘Cause everybody knows that I love you Everybody knows that I need you Everybody knows that I do, except you I’m going crazy baby What do I have to do? You know I love you baby Maybe you love me too Everybody knows that I live for you Everybody knows that I adore you Everybody knows that it’s true, except you Except you, except you, except you How come everybody knows, except you? Oh everybody knows that I love you And everybody knows that I need you Everybody knows that I do, except you

I adore Neil's hair in this. I wish he'd grow it long again and maybe ditch the big beard he has for the 2022 tour? Love this song. Love his other songs. Wish I could go to his concert. Ah, if wishes were horses.
we are all lucky to be attuned.... many people don't quite get it - but they are blissful in their ignorance - who, are we to preach about the sublime intesity of dc - listen to the charts and ........ take pity :)
Great song, (stays with you long after hearing it!), well sung and the band is suberb, I agree with an earlier comment they are very, very, under rated, I'm sure if they got some decent airplay they would be in charts and climbing.
When i first time to hear this song and I thought i should have the album, then i bought his "a short album about love". It's great album, though many people might ignore. I love thi s song, really move me especially at nightime. classic indeed.
I can really relate to this aswell as i'm chasing after a girl who i love and i have basically told everyone but her but i find this song mainly interesting as its talking about the typical male fantasy type of thing of wanting the person you cant really have
this was a classic single, got to 14 in charts. follow on to the fantastic 'frog princess. check his last to albums they out of this world long live king neil!!! graydon
this is what this song means to me, im gay and i really fancy this straight bloke at work! i have told every 1 exept him and he really dont know! dont mean to bring sexuality into this but i relate to the lyrics in this way. ps always been a great song b 4 i knew i was the other way!!!
@TheFriedLiverAttack Ive heard about that, they do it because they were already flying so fast, if it was a see through glass window, they thought they can go through it not realizing it was glass, or if it was one of those mirror windows, the ones that shows your reflection, if it reflected the sky or something it probably thought it was another area it can fly through not realizing it was just a reflection, and BAM! poor birdy. Breaks my heart.
