GOODBYE GIRL - SQUEEZE

[TheBeatlesJPGR53]

The modern day Beatles

They were great but their timing was bad. If they had been a few years earlier they would have eclipsed groups like Cheap Trick and Foghat. If they had come after all the new wave hair bands, they would have been a breath of fresh air. As it was they came along got lost behind all the punk (which I also like) rock.

[meatgoth]

great...

[meatgoth]

I once dared to compare them to The Beatles......big negative backlash but I stand by what I hear.Fantastic,meaningful lyrics and great music.

[TheBeatlesJPGR53]

@meatgoth actually, they are comparable to the Beatles, certainly not popularity or record wise, but vocally...Glenn sounds just like Paul in the early days, as Chris sounds like John. Squeeze was heavily influenced by the Beatles too.

[dirtycrawlers100]

Ah....quality song!

[MultiMaxi7]

reminds me of being a young teenager c1980's . fantastic music and lyrics. whenever i see it on a jukebox i put it on, it's surprising how many people don't know it but then everyone starts putting it on

[kirbygene]

love this song but LOW volume

[metroidprimeribs]

I love Squeeze, this brings back incredible memories!

[fwiskykitty]

Ahhhhh,,,,Squeeze,,,,memories!­ GREAT Band.

[narusaku5878]

they've aged pretty well, and still sound great!

[moaardeeb]

Glenn Tillbrook - the man is a musical genius and sadly underated. Every one of his songs has meaning.

[TB897]

@moaardeeb Chris Difford actually writes the lyrics, the meanings come from him.

Glenn writes great music but Chris writes brilliant lyrics.

[georgemasiello]

Ya, Vicky Verky my fav. Squeeze tune - post if you find

[brightbite]

These words are the truth... people are so fickle.

[TimmytheGeek2009]

They still sound great.

p.s. Vicky Verky is a great song! I hope it is posted somewhere and we find it.

[Rufrounthedge]

looking to find a song I think is called viky verky

[DickieTT]

Everytime I hear this song...even after a couple decades...I still get shivers. No kiddin' about the voice. Thanks for the post.

[Rufrounthedge]

times fly! I'm trying to relocate viky verky off of Argy bargy myself. atleast i think this is the name.

[miss2tone]

Hes still got it...Glenn what a voice. Chris Difford is still sexy

[ArtypNk]

Nice song. Love it.

[lacassula]

Estos tios son los putos amos

[Rufrounthedge]

er es carajo puton!

[theessexgirl]

Why have they changed 'The money in the waistcoat' to 'The money in the fur coat'?!!

[quirkmanly]

I'm pretty sure that the fur coat lyric is included on the album version, not sure why they would choose that over the single though. Nice to see this vid.

[strixq]

I saw them 1982 and I wish they could come over here...I love them too!

[socalmax]

Worked backstage with the band at The Ritz Ballroom in NYC a few times late 70's - early 80's. The band and their mates were just grand and a blast to work for before and after shows.

[davedono]

[AgentEarl]
