  • What a song! - takes your heart and squeezes it like a sponge.

  • Where can I buy a MP3/4 of this?

  • Comment removed

  • Gran canción

  • I haven't seen this video in years, I forgot how it ended. what a great tune.

  • Who else heard this at the end of the Psych school reunion episode??? :-)

  • Love this song!!! I miss the 90's.

  • When I was 15, I was the only person I knew apart from one girl, who had this album. It was our best kept secret. Also, anyone I knew had the great fortune of hearing this being played, a lot.

    Unfortunately they liked happy fucking hardcore.

    The sun is often out :-(

  • When I was at uni, one of my friends that had moved from another uni said the lead singer was her friend at the other uni and sat on her bed one night and said "I've written this song, what do you think?" and played this. She said it was amazing.

  • Superb stuff, why only 2 great albums from them??

  • BRILLIANT!!!

    

  • Beautiful song, beautiful model, beautifully filmed.

  • Quite possibly the best love song ever written.....

  • Right up there as far as ballads go,i too have had the love stake rammed right through my heart,blood, flesh,pain ,sorrow, all feelings expressed by the singer here.

  • safe swimming, wounded warrior tigershark ego

  • What an excellent video !!

  • great song:)

  • how the f*ck has this only got 74,514 views (as I write this)... Such an amazingly beautiful tune. Love this so much

  • i just watched face today. I am so glad i did because this track leaves a warm sensation :)

  • awesome voice. awesome song.

  • amazing...

  • God, how I loved this song! Takes me back...

  • one of the finest bands of the 90's

    if it wasn't for blur and oasis slugging it out then they would have been massive

  • I wouldn't go that far

  • "Video can't be played on mobile", eh? Looks like a trip to the "download and/or convert facebook vids to mp3" site or software like "Tubemate" (for Android) is in order.

  • They deserved more success then they received.

  • @Mat2001uk

    Hey there... I heard this song a week ago on "the George Strombo Show", an evening showcase of true quality music showcasing b-sides and generally overlooked great music of all genres. I have to agree with you regarding the bands short lived radio play when they released "on and on". Other bands have fared better with singles in the ever so profitable 90"s...For other forgotten great music tune into cbc 105.7 "drive" at 3pm or 4pm vancouver time

  • thanks for uploading - just saw a comment you made where you were uploading it :-) Three years ago.

  • fucking superb!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • The best "I love you but seriously, F**k off" song ever written, does anyone know were I can watch the original U.K video?

  • Comment removed

  • Why isn't this song well known? It's a thousand times better than the utter garbage that reaches the dizzy heights.

  • F__ the Bends!!!! What, that's too short???

  • F__ the Bends!!!!

  • Great band, such a shame they faded away... Bloody great song!

  • Great song. Is the 90's going to be considered classic rock soon? Must mean I'm getting older.

  • i love the end, the way he says "on and on" so many times<3

  • I wish you didn't need me. Awesome lyrics, awesome song, awesome crime this was so overlooked at the time.

  • This song is beautiful sends shivers down your spine indie forever

  • wow. Its hard to understand how it was that they missed the success of bands like radiohead and then Coldplay when they are almost the equal of the first and far and away superior to the second. Anyway superb song

  • @strawhouse65 Dead right. Coldplay affectively damaged indie music to a point that we are still recovering from the fallout even now although if longpigs hadn't split, then richard hawley wouldn't have joined pulp for the 'Hardcore' sessions. For me, that was a match made in heaven. Jarv and Rich, two sheffield powerhouses of music!!!

  • love this song! :)

  • This is a tune and a half......Classic

  • 2 People are dead inside !!!!

  • such a wonderful song,thats all i can say really......

  • What a song!, the longpigs should have been much bigger, along with catherine wheel........

  • What a song!, the longpigs should have been much bigger, along with catherine wheel.

  • any live versions by the band about?

  • @TheDayfornight -- did you get the 2 TFI live performances?

    

  • @Bigmoma2010 no they on youtube?

  • @TheDayfornight

    yeah search for longpigs TFI

    and they should come up

  • i don't wish you would leave me & i don't wish you would go but just sometimes i wish i didn't love you so xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx­xxx

  • What a song, thought they wouldve of been bigger!

  • I'll be playing Longpigs on my radio show so the lads are not forgotten.

  • Why dont one of the idiots on X Factor cover this? Of course it would be a desecration but at least it might alert folk to the amazingness of the original...

    One of the most under-rated bands of the 90s....

  • Yeah this was a great song.

  • MTVs 12 Angry Viewers - where they would gather a bunch of dunces who only liked rap and pop music were played new groups. If the dunces liked the song it would be given rotation. If they didn't, it wouldn't be given rotation in MTVs music line up. Go figure that a bunch of rap and bubble gum pop fans didn't like this song. It got voted down - so MTV didn't run it.

  • they just don`t make songs like on & on these days, top tune

  • they just make songs like on & on these days, top tune

  • does anyone have the pass the snake remix?????

  • top top tune!!!! love it

  • will love this song 40 years on..90's was the last decade of great songs..

  • 100 years

  • ace...

  • ACE !!

  • To my NZ Man...I'm sorry and will always love you x

  • I remember when these guys came to california to the filmore in san francisco.

    we had an interview with the band after show back stage these guys rocked the joint!!

    nice guys never heard from them again touring around the bay or in states for that matter.

    they have such a clean soft touch about there rock in roll real deep .

    i guess i was one of the few lucky ones to cross there paths. this song and lost myself and jesus christ have to be my all time favorites

    mad max.

  • amasing song

  • This song was in the 90's film "Face" quality song and thought it fits the film really well, with Damon Albarn acting debut.

  • Top 50 of all time.

    End.

  • To my ex girlfriend, I didn't realise how much I truly loved you!

  • I agree with Zacaraua!

  • Cool that Simon Stafford went on to play with Joe!

  • Not much of a love song... sounds like an unhealthy co-dependent relationship to me.

  • @braddyboy82 That is what love is. take a deep look into antibody's love life and you will see some unhealthy aspects too it.

  • @braddyboy82 @braddyboy82 That is what love is. take a deep look into anybody's love life and you will see some unhealthy aspects too it.

    Ha ha Antibody, really not what I was trying to say!

  • @braddyboy82 hahaha, that's so true. I still love it though.

  • great song

  • I always look at songs as how well they are written and then how well they are actually done (not always in that order by the way).

    This song if perfect.

  • The lyrics say it all for me. Times I don't want to go back too. Love this band X

  • This chick has got a cracking Arse..!!!

  • Really remind me of Radiohead too! listen to the song high and dry by Radiohead. Sounds alot alike

  • never heard of em before but i saw someone mention em to a smashing pumpkins song! great voice! good song...any recommendations of good songs by em! prefer the chill ones!

  • I love this song ! Just beautiful

  • Love it. This brings back so many bittersweet memories. 1996, I was a senior in college, working a crap job, I didnt have two nickels to rub together , but it was still the happiest time of my life. I wish I was that free again. This also reminds me of a special someone from those days that I let slip away,

  • I loved watching my friend Diana dance to this song all time. She looked sexy.

  • I've forgotten about this song for such a long time, and I can't believe that I did because its so beautiful. However, the black and white UK video is so much better than this one. I don't understand why they had to make a second version in the first place. I can't remember anything that anybody would find objectionable about the UK version. But, I suppose, its all a matter of opinion.

  • I had forgotten how much this song meant to me. Truly amazing. Beautiful.

  • check the leggs on that!

  • saw them back then; they opened for Echo and the Bunnymen here in Boston...

  • They should have been Britpop survivors.

  • tears running down as I hear this song.

  • @85dyen yeah I hear ya...totally emotional song....glad I found this one again :)

  • agreed

  • To A.Y.M. ... deep.

  • pure amazing wanted this as wedding song then we split up...she didnt deserve this song anyway! its a classic best left the way it is,i miss longpigs tho
