Cerys looked and sounded like the sort of woman who could confidently and capably slaughter a barnyard pig, and a few hours later arrive at some evening party in a stunning dress and turn everybody's head. The best kind of woman, in other words.
Cerys said at the time that they based the video on the Velvet Revolution and that the song was about "Building anew on old foundations". I was on the mailing list at the time and I remember getting sent a bit of stone with the word "catatonia" written on it to promote this song, still have it.
Oh, God! I searched so long for this video and finally I see it again...After 8 years....wow! The video and music are blend into such a marvelous metaphor! One of the few videos that I'd watch over and over again!
i remember being disgusted for about a month at how this song only reached no.19 in the uk top 75, i was only 9 ;-) i thought from then on if catatonia cant be sucsessful then this decade will be crap, AND HERE WE ARE :-) next decade i think will, with any luck, be a re nineties decade, lets hope :-)
To be honest, this last song would be the best and the most beautiful song to be listened. got tears down a bit. i knew this band in 97's mulder & scully when i was 11. The most memorable band in 90's!
i was there in the pub in Cwmaman that day, and what really happened was Cerys caught you licking her boots and she said "you're not fit to do that" as she got up and left

your just jealous what i said is true i live in cwmaman and i remember it clearly i was in the ivy bush when she made her move on me. i told her where to go cos i was going out with this tart from treneol at the time
catatonia is fukin amazing they split wen i wos lil but i still love them cerys should have won im a cleb and i think they should get bac together i think they would do realy well woop woop catatonia rock out loud xxx
language in the start and in the end of song is czech and flashbacks (1:53) is from my country - czech republic, former czechoslovakia too. It was Velvet revolution in 1989...
This song has a very British 90's anthem production style, it reminds me of Embrace or The Verve of the late 90's. Musical tastes were moving on by the time of it's release in 2001, still a very good song though, probably their best.
Sad to see this band go away. It was just as majestic as the Cranberries. Good music just doesn`t sell these days I guess? Either that or you have to play small venues with a crowwd that wants to free lobsters.
I'm always glad to find music videos of songs I liked in the past that I missed seeing the first time around. This is a great song from Catatonia in the late 90s which I adore.
Bring back slower anthemic tunes fuck the 00's

Cery's blends being beautiful with actually being able to sing.
Something I don't believe many current artists do. (cue pathetic debate which I'll have no part in...!)
Name an artiste that's as naturally beautiful as Cerys (which rules out make-up clad leona lewis etc) who can also sing note perfectly live.

Catatonia's last great gasp. A shame their career came to an end within months. Cery's health issues and changing times apparently took its toll.
