My mum loved this band every song they did she listened to made her happy. I'm a fan myself brings tear to my eyes whenever I listen to this song an remembering her
These kind of comments make me sad. As a Gen-Xer myself, I find that there is still and always has been AMAZING music in every decade that I have lived through. You just need to go research things more.
Was 13 when this came out. A happy childhood without knowing what crap would happen in this world in the coming years. Both personally and in this ( at times ) toilet world we inhabit. God bless innocence.
Literally feel like I have a yoyo in my hand and too much hairgel in my badly cut wig.. 1980 baby here so similar age to you bud.. Gotta love the 90s!!
LOL I completely agree with the sentiment and I know what I am for saying this but, doing the math, weren't you about 4 when this came out in 1989? OK, I'll see myself out.
I remember hearing this one time in the pub in EastEnders-when Grant Mitchell was there too! Also, the album this came from was given the top five star rating in Q magazine when it came out too-and why not indeed?! Wonderful music-thank you too!
My fave song of '97, was working security in a desolate place, going through relationship meltdown and this flashed on the nitetime radio, very uplifting.....
Scouser growing up as a kid in the 90s with these, the Las, cast and space was such an underrated era for liverpool music shaped my life and I write my own stuff now! Such inspiration and Ian Broudie was a part of that
This particular song has a wonderful balance of strong melodies. Its one of those pieces I wish I'd have come up with myself, its such a brilliant piece.
Amazing band. Loved dancing to their tunes with my sister back in the 90s. My favourite line here, "I should forget you but I won't be told." So true. :-)
Listen to the music of the past and remember how good life actually WAS. Then, with all of your heart, will it to be so again. Don't let them enslave us with their lies!
OMG! I remember this song when I was a teenager in the 1990s! For some reason I thought I'd play that song when I was waiting for a train at a London tube station. That horn sound played during the chorus sent a massive shiver down my spine! I forgot how awesome how music sounded before the likes of the X Factor took over and started ruining it!
Brings back great memories from December 2016 when I saw them live supporting madness! They were fantastic. You forget how many great hits they had. 😍😍
I first heard this as an instrumental on one of Liverpool's local radio stations, it was used as the theme for the sports sections live games commentary, still gives me shivers when I hear it, it became even better when they put the lyrics to it and released it.
Billy Bowers yeah I remember it on radio Merseyside and it would play and I can always remember hearing king kenny speak on it as it was the 94/95 season that he won it with Blackburn 😂 always reminds me of that too
Jolification; yes Lightning Seeds excellent; Liverpool band. Seen then live at packed out Riverside; Newcastle and at Catherine Cookson festival. Favourite group during Brit era. Up there with Blur, Oasis and Pulp. Ian Broudie also famous as a producer.
I always love Ian Broudie The Lightening Seeds .. all his music are phenomenal and I don’t care what people say, this is 2022 and I will always love Ian Broudie The Lightning Seeds forever ❤️
