  • im 15 and i likes it yer

    i dont remember it but i miss it

  • awsome song!!!

  • Yes, Sumac64! We're of similar age. Catherine Wheel was great! There's some great Catherine Wheel videos on YouTube as well. Loads of brilliant British Bands! I'll search for School of Fish!

  • Sorry, I'm 44. This was awesome in the day. Bought the casette. Is this Black Rock Desert 1:40-1:44? If you like this; check out some others from that era. School of Fish, or some Catherine Wheel. Thanks for the forum; this is great.

  • Play this one loud!!!!!!!

    RIGHT ON!!!

    -Cheers!

  • This is a great song. It reminds me of my life in the 90's.

  • One of the most important song from the Alternative age.Saweet.............

  • ONE OF MY TOP 5... GREAT SONG... THANKS

  • I dunno but the lead singer is cute..mmmm..

  • Great song but i never understand why there are so many band members - is everyone playing a instrument here!????

  • love the trumpet!!!

  • I had a guest slot on 'sit down' playing the one string banjo.

  • Comment removed

  • ohhhh i love this song.....

  • The Smiths' big support act. Damn good music. The Smiths' quality control..

  • The '90's' was a great decade in music. great song. It takes you back in time.

  • this makes me fly highhhhhhhh =)

  • I guess this songs gonna' play when the meteor finally crashes into mother earth.

  • Generally not a fan of 90s music, but this is one of the most memorable songs from the decade.

  • what are you talking about? 90's was the last decent decade of rock. It wasn't the best era, but there were a lot of good bands from the time. The 90's was the era of good one hit wonders, kind of like the 60's.

  • i am so glad i get to say that i saw them play live once.... sigh.

  • wo wo wo wow o wo wooooooooooooooooooo! excelent song!

  • No! No! No! Not sexual frustration! " Who put brown eyes on the butterflies wings? This is a song about GOD and how we are messing up the environment--melting polar ice caps, endangered animals. "Born of frustration" that man is messing up this God-given glory of nature.

  • thanx for the insight the song makes more sense now...kinda like mercy mercy me from marvin gaye

  • certains morceaux ne prennent pas une ride...

  • in my opinion this song is about sexual fustration

  • I was 24 and 16 years after this is always a pleasure to listen to this magic song and voice

  • potentially the best band in the world cool

  • tune!

  • IDEA MUSICAL, JAMES

  • Such good memories from back in the day...

  • I hear this song at work every day. I hated it at first but I've actually grown to like it.

  • does anyone think the best song of the part is the intro when there is no vocals? I do, its such a catchy beginning

  • cara,muito legal esse som!

  • TOTALMENTE EXCELENTE !!!!

  • great song !!!!! fantastic band , JAMES my new love !!!!

  • ...has just expired!!

  • Show me the movie of WHO U R? Well-who put brown-eyes on the butterfly wings-who give leopards spots-and who taught the birds to sing?

    There is your answer!

  • fyi - who put down our lives on a butterflies wings

  • best song ty

  • james are fuckin excellent

  • Neil Diamond and the BeeGees remind me of my childhood. lol, but this band reminds me of my college and post-college days. their songs don't age, they're as good as they ever were.

  • Self control has just expired.

    God this band reminds me of my childhood!

  • man, these guys knew what the hell they were doing in the studio.

    I LOVE well produced music. This song is about as good as it gets from a production, instrumentation and conceptualization stand point. Master piece with out question.

  • just a fucking really good song

  • the poetry in this tune is fantastic...and the band well....nuff said...tight and right...made a difference for me when i heard it...admire the provocative

  • this is the best eva James tune!!!!!!!!

  • At the time of this tune when i was a kid,i thought it was U2!

  • he does sorta sound like bono. i actually thought he looked a lot like bono as well!

  • i live in manchester and this was my scene.james happy mondays inspiral carpets and even a little later black grape this song to coin one of my old phrases fucking top.

  • Trigger happy tv use it! Anyone help me find that James song where it was like a pink and silver video/cd cover and they were like indoors?

  • try wikipedia

  • Click pause and reflect on 3.26.

    20/20 is hindsight, but makes you think...

  • isnt this from the golf programme on Sky Sports?

  • I had this played on Absolute radio on the 20th of November as part of "i haven't heard it for ages" & won a dab car radio aswell,which was nice.Very special underated song.

  • This song is good for the soul....arent we all tired of life??? and its problems?? This song is the closet thing to gods voice and why we are here to go through all this suffering in the world...this song is about life, honesty and a sense of hope in a hopeless world :I

  • Bang on mate, Moyles is a fat waste of space. Wouldn't we all love to get paid 500K for that?

    Moyles didnt play the tune though, his playlist selectors would have picked it for him. He just needs to keep his gob in check.

  • Genius song. That is one of the best songs I have ever heard. Good call....

  • Excellent!! like Bittersweet symphony.

  • This is a very good song. It's raw, it's honest asd all James songs are, but it isn't as polished, and that makes it shine even more.

  • this song is amazing :D

  • These guys rocked the Roxy! Why aren't they wearing dresses?

    Stop stop talking 'bout who's to blame when all that counts is how to change.

    Just love your work as always, James, you guys are one of the greatest alternative band ever! I still get my guitar to play this song pretty often. Couldn't hardly wait to see your gig at the Radio City Music Hall next month though

  • Still sounds great!.

  • very Simple Minds isnt it (brilliant though)

  • excellent band, one of the reasons i got into music myself

  • Check out incense and peppermints by strawberry alarm clock, 2 minutes in. It's the same riff! (Yes! I rule!!) The James song is way better though.

  • This song is a vent, put it on turn it up and sing at the top of your voice. Perfect. You`ll feel better after that.

  • Great, feel good song.

  • One of the best songs of this super-band!!

    Going to see them at Mexico City

  • This song howls frustration and then releases it in its chorus. Very well done. But almost everything James does is well done. Thanks for posting.

  • Oporto, Portugal! Just Fantastic. Just Fantastic. :)

    *.*

  • Love this song, opened their iow festival set!!

  • what a massive tune!

  • Isso sim que é musica.

  • Uma das minhas preferidas.... Excelente!

  • Cool azz song. Love the lyris, woo, woo, woo

  • Awesome Song!  Thanks for posting.

  • The first second, THE GUITAR, sounds just like a melody from another song. WHAT SONG??? If you do know and tell me and I have an unsually lovely day when I figure it out, I might consider marrying you!

    I can definitely hear U2 influence in Born of Frustration!

  • IM not sure but it kind of sounds like the beginning of THE KILLING MOON by echo and the bunny men. im sure im wrong though. its a great song anyway and worth a listen.

  • Yes, it DOES remind this song a bit. The first second of Killing Moon, the SONG - 0:12 - sounds like the first second of THIS song. However, Killing Moon is not the song I was talking about the first second of Born of Frustration. It reminds me of some other easy-going pop song with distinctive iron wire guitar, maybe British.

    I see why you did this, Pink. Your intention is rather trasparent - you just wanted to marry me. Yes...but I don't blame you, so many do.

  • THANK YOU, Pinky, for the friendly, conditional help...and the flattery!

  • you see right thru me:) let me know the song if you ever find out

  • Does that mean you're not gonna propose, Pinky?

  • Erm, how about Alive And Kicking by The Simple Minds? Nevertheless, certainly this is a great song.

  • See, Pinky? There are people who don't want the obvious.

    So, Para, I just listened to Alive and Kicking and I can tell it's not the song I was talking about. However, THAT song was DAAMN fine, so thank you for that!

  • A classic song that will not be remembered so. Thanks for posting it :)

  • I Love James!!!!!!!!!!

  • to prove how a good song can stay remembered for ever, I am 14 years old and I absolutely love this song

  • Good man!

  • simply class!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
