[AJtheory]

@oliveyaqwer great, bring them to my house

[anonomousous]

This song applies to most young people nowadays.

Following music and trends just fit in with pop culture.

[Ablal]

I love Idelwild gear but love some of the new things aswell.But I loved the more Grungey American indie style of their early work,I know a good band that was simillar called Llama Farmers with a album called Dead Letter Chorus but long forgotten.

[werxie]

Well I'm seeing them this Saturday, 13th March at The Canteen, Barrow-in-Furness. And I hope to god most of the songs they play are from this album because it really was the defining one for me.

[99LETOM]

great song and they're scottish

[torresismustard]

Fucking tune!!!!

[sinnerbox]

One of the first 'singles', I ever bought, good stuff Idlewild... Keep 'em coming and F**k everyone else, would love to hear a version without the cheesy keyboard though.... keyboards are just a little bit wrong, unless you're the Allman Bros

[shaunewilliam]

@sinnerbox great tune and im the same was one of my first few singles, however on the keyboards you might not of noticed its potentially a dig at pop cultures ribs, which is the theme anyway... just a wooden idea though :)

[originalindiechick]

[deptford]

Idelwild all day!

[BettieRazorblade]

This is the song that turned me into an Idlewild fan, oh joy!

[vitalogy]

What happened to the bit where Colin was yelling at Bob through the door? Are there 2 versions of this video then?

[katgem]

yeah, I don't know why they removed the talking bit. I do have a copy of the talking one, but it's pretty bad quality.

[SplashinStrawberry]

I don't get the video. Could anyone tell me. But I LOVE THE SONG. IDLEWILD IS SO GOOD. i hope they come to the USA soon.

[Witek84]

I have just finished reading "teach yourself Marx". I spotted something quite interesting that relates to this song Strawberry. Henry Marcuse was a student and philosopher of the Frankfurt school (A school of Marxist thought) and he wrote the book "One dimensional man". He believed that thought becomes one-dimensional as critical thinking and opposition are leached away by consumerist society. The video shows the band living in mindless repetition. Ahhh there's not enough room for letters..

[SplashinStrawberry]

THX

[katgem]

haven't got a fucking clue.

[vitalogy]

@katgem There are various satirical references to post-modernism as a philosophical theory and how it is a little silly.

[Davidjamespinnock]

@katgem

well.....what it is, is.............

[sambaggy]

HOW VERY POST MODERN

[krazylotty]

My very first Idlewild song! Hooked ever since...
