Reef - Consideration

[TheAnguana]

Aggrappati alle, impigliati rinchiusi sospesi nelle, frenati protetti dalle MAGLIE DELLA VITA

[MegaThecolonel]

Very strange band could write songs like this, saw this played ive in Norway or somwhere was fucking immense, but then they wrote some right shit

[lesvegas5]

buenomentay



[carolfoxable]

This track can only b described as epic! Have seen them do it live so much n it never stops twisting my heart. The post bout the young guy who passed away made me weep! A wonderful life lost... B proud of his memory xx

[the1nonlybiabia]

If only our family and friends knew just how real the lyrics of this song would become for us. This was a favourite of our bro Aaron, 2 weeks after he played this song for us to listen too he passed away at the age of 28. R.I.P BRO!!!!!!!!!!

[Travellingwelshman]

This has to be an anthem for a generation! I only hope this band "come back bright ter!!!!"............

[ramsesciego]

como sellama esta banda la busco como arrecife en google y no me aparece nada mas ke los corales =P...disculpen mi ignorancia espero su crita contructiva .....ok

[zonikox]

@ramsesciego son unos ingleses llamados Reef claro el significado en castellano seria arrecife, este tema (consideration) es de su album Glow.

[JamieDuBz]

I personally know james out of reef awesome band cant wait to see them in july

[alexidisaster911]

In my opinion, this is the most beautiful song in the world.

[stuartj1234]

if we could all just use the opening line to this song as our own personal belief system can you imagine what we might achieve as a species. Screw religion fuck politics lets just think n feel do what you know is right i dare You.

[smalltownboy66]

reef so great and so short............in the space of time not even a micromillisecond

[blittlewill]

Y al caer, te vas... y te vuelves mil palomas que volando se alejan.

[spinnact]

great song. shame that about half the song is missing on this version tho

[percy3815]

Is feeling a whole lot of love coming from the youtube community in relation to peoples problems. I don't care if I get slated for saying this, but seeing people come together with complete strangers to try and help each other will always make me smile :)

[niminimgmailcom]

i cant find this song anywhere!

please help!

[carolfoxable]

HeyBubblemouth

If anything can lift u it's this faultlessly beautiful track... Music can change any crap whether physical , emotional etc into something worth smiling about... I know ... I've tested it!!! Try SuckMy Kiss the Chillies....

[twobagz]

@rednanor I saw them and it definitely was!

[TRSeth]

I agree with the first line in this song, 'i don't think that kindness is a...weakness'.

I love this song, it's so great.

[mickdeviom]

pisses me off hwn people think they were one hit wonders brilliant band

[Keijz74]

@mickdeviom Great band.

[jobraithwaite25]

make me think of my past nice to chill and i did love some one

[woodstock2204]

I have the words 'It's gonna be alright' tattooed on my foot. I swear this song saved my life.

[wilspin01]

@woodstock2204 Cool song, reminds me of sitting with my mates smokin far to much weed, happy days... long time gone

[MikaShelley99]

@woodstock2204 Glad for ya bro, stay strong x

[TheBubblemouth]

@woodstock2204 I saw your tattoo on Tumblr and I am having the worse day of my Life so based on what you described, I’m trying to see if this one saves my Life.

[nikirylee]

@TheBubblemouth same here....weird. i needed some uplifting too. its gonna be alright, just hang in there. if you are at your LOWEST LOW, you can only get higher and higher, right ?? things will get better ;)

[Avondalelily]

@woodstock2204 how is snoopy,woodstock?

[woodstock2204]

@Avondalelily he's alright, thanks. say's hi. hopes you're well.

[Revidescent84]

@woodstock2204 That seriously brought a tear to my eye. This song has amazing powers to it. I used to listen to Glow(well hell I still do) a LOT when I was a teenager and going through some rife shit. The whole CD made me feel better, but this song especially...it just feels like its meant for just you when you hear it. It's intimate..and Gary's voice on it...it's otherworldly. I'm glad this song means so much to others too.

[piratewilly1]

@luke200202 Yeah it wasn't very well advertised =/. But check google, or Ticketmaster and their gigs and reunion news should come up. Hopefully I'll make the glasgow one =)

[andeegreen]

GREATEST REEF SONG! ...EVER!

[stevieontour]

"I don't think that kindness is a weakness" .. surely one of the greatest lines in any song??

[Carlbstard]

Agreed. And the opening line too. :o)))

[rogiremillard]

@stevieontour Beautiful mate!

[Keijz74]

@stevieontour Yes Indeed.

[woodstock2204]

@stevieontour see, in my world, the phrase is "I don't think that kindness is a weakness, I don't have a problem with compassion." Quite clearly, the album version is better! :D

[mattman10293847]

they are touring again next year!!!!!

[fabioadias]

no shit! really?! :O

[missmartineau]

@mattman10293847 Seeing them at Ivylive in august. (Y)

[ckyable]

melanie ramsay if your watching you were the best!

[charlee94]

this was at the end of holby city tonight! :L

awesome song (: x

[floordrobe]

yey! that's why i looked it up. brilliant : )

[jon3m2007]

Ha ha ha - me too! took me ages to find it - what website did you use a lyric finder?

Its a brilliant song and I knew i

[floordrobe]

i googled 'I don't think that kindness is a weakness' and got to a blog which told me it was by reef, then back to youtube and here we are...been enjoying Mellow too. cool.

[charlee94]

so did i

haha, great minds think alike, or something...

[ckyable]

saw them in glasgow 97 and they were awesome,x factor pish has ruined music just now

[CARLING79]

i want this played at my funeral,years away hopefully lol great band seen them 5 times,,great song!!!

[gernikako100]

I like set the record stright? Is not a video of that song?

[headofwords]

Can't find it either!

[chilloot]

this song is amazing! good days

[550hpcat]

holy shit this takes me back .good times.

[ladydawn1973Eternity]

Apparently some of the BEST bands are not so famous. This is great prog. band. Thanks to Classic Rock magazine i founded them.. This is great stuff!

[headofwords]

Prog? Its straight up surf rock! I do think if they wanted to stay popular they had to evolve though, go blues or prog, something different. They didn't, and therefore their popularity fell away. Awesome live, though. Saw them 3 times, each time was great.

[ConductiveDan]

Wow btw Unity! It would be rude of a man to ask your age back then ;)

Oh and if we're namedropping Levis Jeans could I ask for the respect of everyone fro the late Roger Lyons who directed the famous black and white ad with the guy stripping in the laundrette?

He was a friend and my unofficial godfather and was the most awesome person ever. When you see that Ad tell them Roger Lyons did it! :')

[ConductiveDan]

mikedafox.... its good to know some people are still growing up on this album!

Had my old dead CD nailed to my wall for years :$

[MegaMrsP]

Sooo amazing

[kangeroo0katie]

wow wow wow wow!!!!!!!

I AM SO IN LOVE WITH THIS!

THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING SONG MY EARS HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE OF LISTENING TO!!!!!! :D

[mikedafox123]

my dad gave me an album of reef and i'm hooked on reef i'm 14 and i just love this kind of music , music that is the exact same as how you feel.

this has to be one of my top 10. tunes of a lifetime.

[b10016914]

Keep up listening to good music. Im 27, and they just churn out a lot of shit in the mainstream music scene. Look around and find the good stuff. It ll make a man out of ya. haha. keep rockin little dude.

[thediamondjames]

Christ! Unity2103, you were my incredibly niche teenage fantasy figure, up there with the girl from the Levis freedom to move advert and jasmine lowson from the big breakfast news. Hope that all is shiny and wonderful in your world.

[ballooskii]

love this good memorys

[Beynon5]

Whenever im even slightly down, i just put this album on and everything is good again :) reef are simply the bast band in the world :D

[ethoschalmers]

awsome.

[mjplatt34]

perhaps if they were from the north, they would be more recognised, by the way oasis is shite

[aronpost]

thankyou fabioadias.thankyou reef. such an uplifting track.

[lenaepuroi]

BEAUTIFUL ... THAT'S WAHT IT IS

[werepig]

cor blimey. roll back the years. what a howling classic this is. brilliant. 1997? makes you realise just how short life is.

[unity2103]

My God that makes me feel old! I'm the girl laying in the car in the video. Just thought i'd look it up for old times sake. 1997!? Jeez! Feels like yesterday. Great song!

[lukauskis]

heh. great song indeed

[izzzzythedog]

wow and just wow , bloody good song to be associated with and i hope your a honey still , my claim to fame is my shirt was in a bon jovi video , sadly the bastard ex wife was in it at the time

[werepig]

That's brilliant! Ha ha ha !

[robertplantscrotch]

just realised it was my 2nd house actually LOL...the years have eaten away my brain cells

[robertplantscrotch]

reminds me of being in my first house on my own, I moved in and played this album for weeks lol

[2808vikkenny]

SPREAD THE LOVE!!

[manofkernow]

one of my favourite ever songs, a girl broke up with me the day after i bought the album, and spent many days feeling sorry for myself listening to this

[divlino]

awesome tune.Was having a pint there and this song popped into my head out of nowhere,i decided to come home and search for it instead of having another drink. Deserves a thumbs up for that reasone alone!

Many thanks to the uploader.

[ghostwheel12345]

I've forgot all about this song it has made my week since playin it again. Much Love Keep on Keeping on.... x

[Pobrais]

After posting my original comment about 4 weeks ago I've had many people reply. It just makes me realise how good music brings good people together.

[eddymaiden56]

Well said...

[Pobrais]

Cheers Eddy,

Every time someone replies to the comment I made about four or five months ago I have to come back and listen to this, one of the most beautifully composed songs ever. Listening to it now while I'm typing is bringing me out in goose bumps..... come on... "IT'S GONNA BE ALRIGHT"!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Imstupidsueme]

I love this song,just makes things come into perspective in a way.makes everything seem a lil less hard.Amazing.

[NuttyNikita]

This was played at my uncles funeral as this was hes favorite song and i think its brilliant, it sums everything up really

[Pobrais]

I'm I the only one but do you lot also feel a shiver down your neck when he screams 'it's gonna be alright' ?

[ImAsMadAsHell]

YO TAMBIEN

[braveharty]

nicole, you and me are going to be alright.

xxx

[enduropunk]

De lo mejor de Reef...clasiko!!

*_*

[Pobrais]

Soon after meeting the love of my life we were snogging away on the sofa when this came on the stereo. We both told eachother that this was one of our favourite songs. I think that was one of the things that sealed it for me. Now we have a beautiful little baby boy in our lives. That's what this song reminds me of. My happiness. Susie, I love you.

[anotheradrian]

awesome man, congrats on your baby boy. love is a precious thing to find, not many people respect that.

[Pobrais]

Thank you.

[MarkCooper1]

beautiful song and a beautiful sentiment, i am going through a tough spell myself but this song makes it all seem slightly better, thanks!

[funkymish]

you've probably listened to a lot of other Reef songs, but the ones on youtube that make me feel the best are I've Got Something To Say and Place Your Hands. Always make me smile :)

Listen and feel better!

[sugarraygras]

Hope things work out for you.

[stivagorm]

Dude, I really love this song, however, If you are still going through a tough spell, listen to Reef Good Feeling, and remember, IT WILL GET BETTER. Live life as much as you can, respect, love and learn, Take it easy dude

[paul1979uk]

Fantastic!

[xdirtyburtyx]
