flowers and football tops

[gakyle1]

great version of such a powerfull song thx.

[MyMandaM]

this version of this song gets me every time - tears are running down my face right now

[AndyB1286]

This is a brilliant acoustic version of the song, and despite the terrible tragic meaning behind the song, you've managed to give it an air of beauty by adding the pictures. I didn't know people like Kriss Donald or Sophie Lancaster, but murders like those really fuck me off, and I'll give Glasvegas credit for writing songs about subjects that most bands avoid. Hope you don't take the video down :-)

[42carger42]

u guys r awesomeeeee !!!

[bigtammcd]

great version mate cheers god bless

[McCloy7]

It is actually about kriss Donald. Glasvagas have talked about it.

Anyone know If the basterds wer killed in prison or not?

[8percentband]

my interperation was that it was refering to his girlfriend maybe the word son was ment to be like sun as sun shine just a thought

[MrStevenc1]

he's singing about a guy who's son has died/was killed, then how the flowers and football tops which are usually put down when someone dies, they wont actually help the cause.

[smokiesnwine]

'pak bastards' is definitely not what this song is about. If anything, the message is that racism in any form is wrong, it's certainly not trying to set up a race war. Great song though. (Y)

[gordonryan78]

i posted this song as i like this version of it...any more stupid comments and its coming down.

i appreciate people commenting on people deaths and such but can we leave out the abuse. it was a handful of people who did the awful thing to the poor wee lad, not an entire race.

[jamesgers08]

@gordonryan78 awful doesnt sum it up mate! although i dont agree with alot ofthe comments ive seen under this video i can fully understand the anger.

[gordonryan78]

@jamesgers08

i can understand their anger as well, but here is not the place to vent it

@every one else

i only posted vid so glasvegas fans could hear an acoustic version of a good song , i think its allot better than the album version

comment on the song, or not at all, or even say you like the pics in video , no need for anything else

this isnt all aimed at you just everyone in general

[ScottyMitch]

Pak Bastards.

[fukkinMWIdotcom]

look guys its sad wot happened to kris but this has nuhin tae do wae him this is just aboot people dyin in gennerall n how wenn they do they put flowers n football tops doon

[1690FRA1690]

RIP Kriss Donald

[TheFrancesscoo]

great song !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[duffdog13]

heartbreaking

[kylemcfarlaneboi]

Rip Daryl William Turley </3

[bluepantera]

RIP Kriss Donald, tortured by filth

[gordonryan78]

no need to condem a whole race because of a few idiots, learn to spell too

[Infernotrance]

song makes me think if it is all worth it at the end of the day.

Cause i also lost somebody in a football fight just last year.

[higgolini]

wow, just read the story of what this song's about. Horrible stuff. Rest in peace Kriss Donald.

[jaytotheell]

where is this story?

[Drainpipe91]

Id Also like to dedicate this to Kevin Mc Daid and Micky- Bo who was also killed in this same way for the same reason when he was only 15.

Mindless people are a disgrace

song breaks ma heart

[xxbubblegum00]

Can i dedicate this song to Kevin McDaid, he was a daddy of four kids who was beaten to death by a mob in Coleraine northern ireland on Sunday night after rangers won the scottish league...a life of 49 years was taken away in 2 minutes of madness...can i just say to his family im sorry to hear about your loss......i also think this song fits this moment ......peace

[gordonryan78]

of course u can......im a rangers fan and was appalled when i seen this on news.

both sides should be ashamed of themselves...absolutly no need for any of it

[wrightj1]

Its sad to see my football team acting like this, its just appalling people could do such a thing.

[trueblue99123]

Nothing to do with the football team, Just mindless thugs who are the lowest of the low.

[Tradgiclullaby]

:c such a sad song. but then again, that's what makes it beautiful <3

[ElGuido1969]

wonderful song (electric and akustic) , sad lyrix.

[wolfyann]

Un peu de rouge sur mon col (gimmick "lipstick on my collar" ?)

Quelque soit le texte & le sujet, la ballade vaut un tour du monde en tondeuse à gazon... en marche arrière.

Merci d'éxister Glasvegas. Wolfie.

[Torslanda1001]

det här är den bästa låten som nånsin gjorts! jag älskar glasvegas!

[UddingstonRFC]

[bazza00267]

[redkennedy]

Ha ha!

[alabam5]

I have heard quite a few people praising this band - I have lived in Glasgow for 37 years and have seen more than my fair share of bands from the Mary Chain, BMX Bandits onwards and these muppets have to be about the most overhyped bunch of feckin bawsacks i have ever had the misfortune to listen to. Outdated, bog standard soulless shite from a bunch of smalltime manfactured wasters caught in a timewarp. Give it up and go back to your day jobs, honestly. What a fuckin' disappointment.

[andymacceltic]

You need laid big time.

[alabam5]

Good come back.

[officermahoney1182]

somebody needs a hug

[johnjhope]

Unbelievable band. Even better than the Mary Chain and I never thought I'd say that. Love how he sings in his normal voice too..makes the lyrics all the more heartfelt and ring true. The album is quality all the way through as well.

[stellamonster01]

if the proclaimers could sing as half as good as glasvegas they wouldnt still look and sound so ugly!! lol

[craigieinches]

shutit ya anglatere wee prick

[chrishunt93]

no one of their best but their brilliant all the same. Proclaimers? fuck off bunch eh hibee bastards glasvegas is a real band.

[Dunc89]

Chris Hunt?

C Hunt?

sounds about right.

[steggybeetroot]

Proclaimers rip off? What fucking planet are you guys on? Just cause they sing with a proper accent? The fact they sing with their native accents is the only thing they have in common with the proclaimers! Complete different genre of music! Get your bloody facts right!

Glasvegas........different class!

[gordyblair]

What a Tune !!! you 2 don't get the music !!! its class !!

[crumpledtenners]

dick!!

[dixoncfcno1]

[sharon174]

this breaks my heart everytime I listen

[aschemerfriel]

i think this song was inspired by the racist murder of 15 yr old kriss donald.first wee white boy they could find.

[sharon174]

I can't think about that wain without feeling sick so sad :-(

[aschemerfriel]

i can only take solace from the fact every con in Bar-L will feel the same.
