What I remember about this band was an interview on MTV back in the days when MTV was fun (Ray Cokes et al ). The presenters were not always native speakers of English. Anyway the young woman interviewng them asked the singer, 'Do you get off your food when you're in love?'. Quick as a flash yer man answered, 'Only if I'm sat on it!'. Thought that was great. THanks for the vid.
I love all the people who think it's a love song, its about a photographer basically manipulating a model into doing what he wants to, need to listen to the lyrics beside the hook.
Going to see them in our home town Sheffield in Feb!!
Awesome song loved it first time I heard it and used to sing it to myself in the mirror to wind up my wife!! its beauty has never waned.....unlike my own lol
I'm 34 now, but having read a comment on here, I totally empathise with what's written. I'm not old personally and don't look old or physically feel old, but my soul often feels lonely and withdrawn and dis-connected with today's society - there's so many problems to deal with!
Being 18/19 at that point, everything seemed straight-forward - the music was great and there was that sense of togetherness - something for me somewhere has been lost :-(
Now 35 brought me here... at 7 years old listening to my first album in 1996! Miss the 90's. The last decade with any style... everything is so boring today.
@mikeymorgan now 33...don't be like that.there is still lots of good music,but we (older people :)) don't have much time to search for that so only what we hear on radio or see on tv is commercial shit...Remember Spice Girls,they are in 90's... We just miss our teenage days,i think that is bigger problem :(
i've heard it recently and i thought that maybe its new and i was so glad that music like this returned! But i guess not xD. Luckly they play it on my radio often!!
i remember this song being played on the radio all the time and listening to it and other awesome songs with my dad when i was about 5! good memories :)
reminds me of when i got my 1st flat way back in 1996... i feel like an old slut lol..i was gorgeous then though dont get me wrong ya complete bastards ya
Remember that tank top you bought me... Yes you wrote 'I'm A Tosser' on it... Damn, this song just reminds me of Mark and Lard! Lucky that Babybird are a totally class act and have got a whole shedload of other good songs!
@Baybiigall98 It's about a young girl being coerced into modelling soft core pron shoots. The ''because you're gorgeous'' bits are what the photographer is telling the girl to get her to do it. How is this in the least bit romantic? O_o Listen to the lyrics.
I dont know the artist or even the title of this song all I remember is the beat and the year I heard it 1998 ( I was in grade school )......I'm looking for this song for a decade and finally I accidentally found it........Thanks thedecmyster1 for the upload
@InTheStrawberrySwing hm, odd... try writting "because you're gorgeous" in search. This slow version always comes first in results, at least in my case it comes...
@dinachicky Nah this one is the acoustic one! I'm searching for "You're gorgeous too". It begins with drums and piano, it's not slower but more pop, I don't know how to describe it.
@andrew7pulse Many people choose this song for their weddings. Funny enough, this darkly beautiful song is actually about a naive model who gets talked into doing a soft-core shoot by a charming photographer. The verse is meant to be ironic with the photographer saying "You're gorgeous!" as he manipulates the girl into going beyond her boundaries. The "I'd do anything for you" is the girl's inner response to his flattery.
@x0xRuthx0x well it could be worse, at least it still relates to the video! I'm not advertising something, nor is it some cliche Bieber remark. I'm not convinced the comments can really "ruin" the video, especially a fairly neutral one such as mine! but objection noted we are all different i suppose!
The 90`s were the last time of good music. Nowdays the singers can not sing and prefer to talk.This type of music is known by hip-hop.To create a good song it needs work and quality of the artist.
@123456789manuel The 90s were the heyday of hip-hop there is no hip-hop in the charts these days it's just rap. Maybe you should actually take a minute and think before making ill-founded comments, wanking lyrical about how shit music you don't like is and generally looking like a cock juggler.
