[beyond1964]

Jummy, the song is about being at a party, and being too drunk to go home.

[beyond1964]

Jummy, the song is about being at a party, and being too drunk to go home. :)

[Jummy9909]

what is the meaning of this song??? It is a serious question...have to understand it for some reason...

[TheShelterAtl]

honestly? I think this is one of the top 10 "on the road" songs ever written.

[buckerellavenue1]

Andy Bell. Currently being held hostage by a dick called Gallagher in a non entity called Beady Eye, Ride, please reform

[panalevras]

sounds great!!where are these guys???



[paradeal]

Awesome!

[dsidesnyc]

REFORN RIDE FOOKIN NOW!!!!!

[dsidesnyc]

@dsidesnyc REFORM NOW!!! :D

[7715162]

still brings tears..timeless music...

[thenewtown]

Rotrot ur full of pish... Nirvana were an amazing band, worldwide.... And Ride were better than decen...wot a tune, wish a was there

[CrackCocaineRager]

amazing! live version is still great.

[DocWhat10]

LAMB1968 - watch Taggart - it's fucking cold and the beer is warm and Ride don't exist anymore so probably full of snobs and dickheads like Russell Brand

[schwinglow]

@DocWhat10 Taggart was Scottish, are you thinking of Morse??

[LAMF1968]

Can someone tell me how life in Oxford is really like ? never been so far away .....

[JimiB1984]

Brilliant band!!!

[supergout]

Souvenirs et gros frissons!!!!

Putain la noise des années 90 c'etait quelquechose....

[SpiralTwentyFive]

Great band, great postcode.

[AOCRkid]

i love the intro to this song

[Greggo2]

Loz @ 2:57. The coolest drummer ever.

[IvyMike777]

He's a great drummer, I saw them on the Going Blank Again tour I thought his arms would fly off he was playing so hard.

[primal612]

AMAZING.

[jezchef]

god i love this track! What memories! I remember listening to it on tape on the way, to and from college.... someone please find the EP/CD version and put it on here!

[jbiancon]

what a great song!!! it brings me so many fond memories of my teen years...and it still makes my heart burn!

[hammertoejoe]

Hamburgers and hot dogs are definitely more legendary and influential than filet mignon

[chilie6]

What a great riff...brings back some good memories. Too bad they never caught on in the home of the coward land of the slave. They deserved to be bigger than Nirvana,alas.

[reverb478]

your delirious. Nirvana was a legendary and influential band. They were important. Ride was great but also insignificant.

[rotrot27]

Nirvana are/were just bog standard American crap. Ride were actually pretty decent

[meinLiebsterFeind]

@rotrot27

What's this got to do with Nirvana? 

[would44]

@rotrot27 Nirvana is much more than that 

[beauty8116]

Nirvana were nothing more then one long POSIES song. eSearch The Posies on youtube and see where Dave Grole and whoever owns Cobains royalties should be sending their checks!

[rs40licks1]

I have to disagree, Nirvana stole a lot of their ideas from Dinosaur Jr and the Meat Puppets. I don't really see the Posie's influence.

[beauty8116]

Sorry but do not agree.

[meinLiebsterFeind]

What do you mean by "stole"... Do you think Dinosaur Jr. wasn't influenced by Neil Young and so on and so forth... Influence is not theft.

[MomentarySupernova]

are you sure you dont mean the pixies?

[beauty8116]

No The Posies. All the Seattle bands would watch them play out before Grunge broke. The Posies were on the pop side of the grunge movement. Kurt was a fan and Dave G whole post Nirvana career is made possible from stealing every song in The Posies FROSTING ON THE BEATER album. Give it a listen, its brilliant. IMHO

[wickywhite]

I agree Frosting on the Beater is a fantastic album, I can see the influence on Dave Grohl, but stealing is perhaps a little harsh.

Ride were fantastic... so underated.

As great as Nirvana were, they didn't do anything that hadn't been done before. They just did it very well.

[meinLiebsterFeind]

Steal and influence are different things, nothing under the sun is new.

[beauty8116]

I agree, thats why i wrote stole. Dave G has no influences, He is the king of theft. Those that are fans of the bands he rips know that. It's well documented. You can be influenced by a band that came before you, you steal from a band going on stage the night before you. IMHO, Peace

[meinLiebsterFeind]

I'm not the hugest Nirvana or Foo Fighters fan but they are both mediocre enough and Dave G is an astounding drummer. I'll require documentation of this so-called sonic plagiarism if that is your assertion.

[sazza111]

It's nice to look back on your youth and find out that the music you listened to then really was as special as you thought it was at the time. Brilliant in every way.

[CasualBantam]

What a cracking way to sum it up sazza111. Great memories from our earlier years indeed! Long live the 80s Casuals!

[CasualBantam]

Jaw-droppingly brilliant. Far and away their finest track. Makes you feel on top of the world with every single listen. Genius.

[robbroncs]

holy chills batman

[wonderwall4355]

I love the swirling stars backdrop. And the bass and guitar are fucking ace.

[astromass]

good lord...this is so rad. listen to that SOUND.

[strflyr]

please ride reunite and tour america!!!!!!!! then i can die in peace!!!!!!!!

hey mbv and swervedriver are bak together! i can dream no?!!!!

[sheepywotsit]

Unfortunately they said they aren't because they won't be able to live up to expectations :(

[strflyr]

xpectations who cares ! thats a silly xcuse no nonononononononononon no fair

[oasishepherd]

This song is going through my whole body. My knees are shivering. I can't stop listen to it.

[truesound24]

Without a doubt this song is their finest moment. I play this loud and I play it proud over over and over again....

[javierpl]

do the words that can describe what this song makes you feel exist? will they ever do?

[nicck]

MY POSTCODE!

[sisterraysbrother]

favorite song of all time. love the bittersweet vibe. will have to disagree w/ someone who said that the live version is better. the noise build up at the beginning of the studio version... for me, there's nothing better than turning up my car radio as loud as it can go and waiting for the song to explode after that first drum fill. and the echo/tremolo part at 2:57 on the studio version is so bad a**. song is so great it makes me cry sometime. will listen to it if i'm happy or sad.

[TheMusicalElitist]

I know what you mean! I've had this song on repeat for nearly two months now!

[domco77]

...one of the best intros ever. Really want to know how they get that guitar sound at the start!

[Swervehead]

with an ebow......

[LAMF1968]

Andy needs to stop counting his money he made with OASIS and REFORM RIDE NOW !

[suedehead28]

shit yer

[Edogawa1117]

This is AWESOME!!!

[releze]

i did'nt even know there was a video on this one. ride's best!

[RRPMusic]

I think I like the live version better, the lead guitar stands out more.

[mannyblaze]

wow these guys are great i just discovered them, this song will be in my music library forever!!

[robybates]

I was so lucky to see these guys in the States in NC great show was a plus to have the Pale Saints open for them wonder times!!!!

[DecaffinatedBoy]

BEST driving song along a big lonely road EVER!!!

Try it out some time.

i used to play this very loud while driving up to Noosa with my mates back in the early 90's.

Sunshine Coast. Those were the days.
