The Verve - Weeping Willow (VIDEO) 

I honestly feel so sorry for anyone who is too young to have experienced the 90's. There will never be a time as artistically rich and intense, with true and important artists, and music like this. I thank God that my teen years were squarely within the 90's.

25 years old in Summer 98’ sitting outside with a beer and friends with Urban Hymns playing, little did I know that this music would forever live in my heart.

this is the most underrated song of all time.

the best song on urban hymns in my opinion

Urban Hymns, for me one of top ten albums of all time.

Richard is one of the greatest ever Brit songwriters. No doubt.

I HOPE YOU SEE LIKE I SEE Ah Ah I HOPE YOU SEE WHAT I SEE yeah yeah I HOPE YOU FEEL LIKE I FEEEEEL Absolute belter!!

I took Urban Hymns with me when i went to rehab to get off heroin many years ago. I used to listen to Weeping Willow a lot while i was there. That song helped me get off the smack. Thank you Weeping Willow.

For me this is, without any exaggeration, the best british song of all times ! I love The Smiths, The Curem, Beatles, The Jam, Happy Mondays, Blur, Oasis and tons more. But Richard Ashcroft just blows me away every time.

the best British band out of the 90s , fuck everyone else , passion, power, beauty and great front man.....I wish they kept going

This song sends you into a different dimension. The musical distortion is a beautiful mix of confusion and sorrow. The first time I heard this song I felt like I rediscovered music

When morning breaks We hide our eyes and our lungs aching Nothing strange It was in our hands from six to ten It slipped right out again There'll be no better time There'll be no better way There'll be no better day to save me Save me Yeah, save me Yeah, save me I hope you see like I see, oh, oh I hope you see what I see, yeah, yeah I hope you feel like I feel, yeah And the world don't stop There is no time for cracking up Believe me friend 'Cause when freedom comes I'll be long gone You know it has to end There'll be no better time There'll be no better way There'll be no better day to save me Yeah, save me Yeah, save me Yeah, save me I hope you see like I see, yeah, yeah I hope you feel what I feel, yeah, yeah Someone to stand beside me Beside me Beside me, now is not the time to cry Beside me Beside me Whether you see or whether you don't, beside me Whether you feel or whether you won't, beside me Whether you see or whether you don't, beside me Whether you feel or whether you won't, beside me Whether you see or whether you won't, beside me Whether you feel beside me I hope you see like I see beside me I hope you feel what I feel beside me I hope you see like I see beside me I hope you feel what I feel beside me Weeping willow The pills under my pillow Weeping willow The pills under my pillow Weeping willow The gun under your pillow Weeping willow Weeping willow I got to learn to leave the pain Walk through the door and kiss the rain beside me, beside me I got to learn to leave the pain Walk through the door and kiss the rain beside me, beside me

When those first notes come in I get goosebumps 😍

Listening through the Covid-19 pandemic and these lyrics have taken on a whole different meaning. ✌🏻🌎😷🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Genius. The record label didn't make it, so you did.

Always brings me to tears. The Verve are genius; Nick McCabe is not from this world!

The reason this band wasn't popular because most people are sheep and recognize or hear or understand pure genius what a underrated band and talent

I played the shit out of this whole album as a teen and just staired at the ceiling for hours...but I was somewhere else...

2019. Richard Ashcroft man you got me through some tough times in the past.

One word....Haunting

The genius of this song/record is the sequence of this song followed by 'Lucky Man' on the LP. The fact that Richard and the band can so poignantly express both extremes in life is proof of their collective genius. The Verve will always be criminally underrated, especially here in the US. It's a shame that they had to break up three times because musical chemistry is a blessing from the universe.

Driving up north in the snow with this cranked up, no feeling can describe it!!! The Verve were the greatest band to never recieve the credit they deserved!!! I consider myself to be one of their biggest fans out there, their music changed my life for the better!

The most soul haunting song the Verve have ever produced.... I can relate to this song in every way from morning breaks, saving me, the pills under my pillow, and most definitely the gun under my pillow...... Into eternity

Shake, This is 2024 adding, this introspection, communicated, is fragile and priceless. ❤

Weeping willow pills under my pillow Weeping willow gun under your pillow ... Oh I love Richard he's a legend I wish I could see him live..

The 1990s was the decade I became a teenager and as a lover of all types of music it was filled with conveyer belt of different excellent genres..pop rock jungle rap grunge rock dance trance dnb ukGarage I honestly can go on and on...never also forget the abundant films all classics and original the TV was brilliant tv polar opposite of today!...tunes like this one I didn't listen to until I had a trip on a national express back to Uni I borrowed my brothers cd Urban Hyms album...my fave Verve tune ❤2ALL ✌🤜🏾

What always stands out for me with Aschcrofts vocals, is how unique his harmonizing is.

What made the Verve was the core of Richard Ashcroft and Nick McCabe. Both complimented each other perfectly.

their song which touches me most. by far.

This and Sonnet. The best on this top 20 album of all time. Listened to this and Northern Soul in a pub in Glastonbury , Christmas 1998. Blew my mind.

One of the very best singer song writers in the world without a doubt ❤

We don't care if this song is underrated or not all that we care about it is tasting this Fresh feeling that make on us...

This band……..you just wish they could’ve all gotten along and stayed together. Biggest what could’ve been band in music history IMHO.

Like the man himself told me, it’s all about soul music. I need to learn to ease my pain, walk through that door and kiss the rain.

This is one of my favorite songs of all time.

This band and this atmosphere oh my GOD...

i remember in late 1998 ( day off from college ) i just turned 17 , went to my nans as i had birthday money in a jar ( i lived bout 40 min walk away ) and got the bus to hmv in town and broght the urban hymns album . in 2000 there was excitement bout ashcrofts first solo cd ( which i got as soon as it came out ) . saw richard live in concert in london in 2021 , one of the best gigs ive ever been to

Still the best band in the world! So honest and true! Real people with real feelings. They don't make 'm like that anymore! Thx verve 4 guiding wisdom !

I fell in love with this song 12 seconds into it and this is my FIRST time hearing it.😍😍😍

Finally on RU-vid ... probably the best song ever released

One of the best songs ever written. Stoned. Magical. Gorgeous. ♥

Timeless album, "Urban Hymns" is.

When that familiar bassline first hits.. Peak moment in many late night drives from home to college or back. Favorite song from favorite album of my life.

Beautiful rock band😮

maybe best Verve song there is. it always puts me in a certain mood, not even sure how to describe it

Amazingly haunting song...

Listen how long Richard holds the notes for. Genuine unstylized vocal truth power. Resonance especially at the end refrain Majestic art.

what an incredible song. "and the world don't stop, there is no time for cracking up, believe me friend"...everything about it, some of the best atmospheric guitar work by McCabe on the entire album, and that's saying something...the drum beat...EVERYTHING about this song is excellent. thanks for posting.

This RA Song Speaks Volumes. It has a mixture of sadness mixed with raw emotion. Love It

Best Verve song and just one of the best in general

🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳 what a band.. Richard Ascroft you're a living legend. Tons of love from India❤️❤️

Forever my friend Polly Matthew's.. love you and thanks for reminding me of this song and others . Miss you x

I loved this song and I will love it forever. Simply genius.

This iconic song defines just how incredible the musical sound between McCabe and Ashcroft, it still mezmorizes me Everytime I listen!

This song always reminds me of 9/11/01. I was watching the news coverage while the radio was on and this song came on and it just stuck with me ever since.

The way this whole album still sounds so fresh and exciting as the first time I heard it all those years ago. ❤

When morning breaks We hide our eyes and our love's aching Nothing's strange ..

I love this song. Brings me back to possibly the best time of my life. I love Richard's voice.

no words can explain how I truly truly love this song. I know my music history but its fair to say the UK have produced the best rock/indi musicians

Best tune on the album. Saw these boys loads of times. Class will never die. Ashcroft = legend

One of the greatest songs ever-

Se eu fosse um cineasta essa seria a trilha da cena mais importante do filme... muito top essa música...

Urban Hymns my favourite album of the 90's!

Yes this a classic album - 20 years old nearly but it will go down as a classic album/ band - like The Who, like the first Oasis album , I was in my 20's through Brit Pop , it is my 60's .. Dublin Castle, Blur , playing loads of gigs , great times

Song is so moving, right from the start to end. pure art

Mr Ashcroft is a pure legend Good God I love him

Urban Hymns,for me the best Album 😀👍

The most underrated track of the 90's

The Verve Number One ❤
