This is one of my favorite songs from my favorite year in music 1991; The mood is mellow and bright throughout. The interplay of bass and keyboard is so keen particularly right at the start, but in retrospect, some of the production techniques sound a bit heavy handed and dated. I would love to hear a tasteful remake of this for an over-30 audience. As it stands it's still a bit of a guilty pleasure that I can't bring out and play for friends who are wedded to strictly mainstream production.
classic ,better tougher and then they went i think damn,acid/warehouse/rave is now part of history like the other movements of our time.keep the spirit alive on you tube
man, this cd is difficult to find especially after 18 years later. I used to have a red-vinyl copy and a cd of this, anyone got a copy they want to let go for $25 (in VG to VG+) condition? by goldmine record/cd standards.
GREAT! it reminds of good times! Wonderful song, unfortunately Candy Flip weren't successful here in Italy....their sadness reminds me a bit of Saint Etienne........Max from Milan
I hate his hair cut which might have suited better in their video of 'Strawberry Fields' Beatles cover.
I have the 12" to both this and Strawberry. This whole flavor of music really died out quick... what's happened to the Charlatans, Stoned Roses etc... sad.
Sorry. I'm afraid i'm very attached to my vinyl collection.
If you want a copy of the song in mp3 format, perhaps i can help you.
Anyhow, i think my Youtube account will be shut down before you can reply to this message.
DonnaThePrimadonna is threatening to report me to Youtube for posting a video that has clips of Man2man's Male Stripper video in my Man Parrish video .... this is a crazy world. I refuse to remove this video so... goodbye cruel world.
Original Bongo Band "Apache" up in there, perfect under the baggy style.

Sounds like Donnatheprimadonna has control issues, looks like she'll be signing up for more therepy hours.

I don't think you can link Candy Flip with Charlatans & Stone Rose, apart from they were all from the early 90s.
Candy Flip were a dance/rave/pop band, the Madchester bands you mentioned were indie rock with a tiny element of dance.
I'd compare CFs style of music with The Beloved & Pet Shop Boys.
But yeah, I love Candy Flip, especially their b sides
thanks Markstar for posting :)
