THIS SUMMER - BY SQUEEZE

[catmagoo]

I fell in love with someone on holiday when i was younger and knew them for a couple of yrs and for the whole time i knew them the chorus and middle bit is exactly how i felt about it and being round him. I'll never forget him

[cuddlybear47]

Another Quality song from a top quality band. Saw this being performed as part of the Ridiculous tour at the Pavilion Theatre in Bournemouth, it was a great gig, fantastic atmosphere.

[Kresnov]

Without doubt the most perfect pop song EVER.

LOVE IT.

[jonfletcher147]

WORLD CLASS!!!!!!!! Long Live SQUEEZE!! xx

[cedricthecentaur]

The flash floods, the trashy seaside towns, the failed romances, interspersed with the odd day which is actually a corker-the typical British summer!

[buickcityslim]

Pure summer pop.

[marcsealey]

went to see em at the manchester apollo...choon bumps and happy dayzzzz

[MattyDoable]

So made up, I feel I could take off and fly.....

[destructivedandy]

Beautiful summer song from a beautiful hot summer if memory serves right

[musicfunkydude]

Should have been their biggest hit ever, fantastic song,Best brit band of the era,HATED MADNESS!! but loved Squeeze

[14rnr]

Agreed

[chazs001]

who is that beautiful bird in the vid.xxx

[stargate669]

That's my great aunt agatha. You'd never think she's 94. It's the rat's urine and cow dung she applies to her face each morning.

[BIGMASE80]

Memories of school! Glad for the memories wish i was back there!

[turntapzap]

How good can one band be?!!

[sean3172]

[shaneborneo]

P.S, the girl who features througout is beautiful, I'm in love!!!!

[shaneborneo]

A lovely Squeeze song, I cant remember it being a bit hit

[locorojo25]

think it made about 35 or 36 when it was released in 95 and a couple of places higher when it was rereleased in 96. its a goody tho.

[reddevil70]

mint song !!! lead singer looks like david cameron . lol.. carl in scarborough x

[Jodielfc222]

one of my fav squeeze songs does anybody know where i can download the song maidstone from? cant get it anywhere

[cruciatesandligament]

Best squeeze song ever. Just lovely, summery feel, love it

[bluesbrother37]

Excellent quality, fave Squeeze song!

[woodwater1000]

from which abum is this??

[FRANZ4EVA]

THE ESSENTIAL SQUEEZE DVD

[kdisley]

@woodwater1000 Originally, it was on Ridiculous; it's also featured on The Big Squeeze compilation, and as Franz says it's on The Essential Squeeze video collection as well

[tottenhamdon]

If this song doesn't make you smile like a loony, you've no soul! Glenn & Chris are the only answer to Lennon & Macartney.

[ronhelf]

@tottenhamdon there are, of course, several songwriters who carry on the mantle of Lennon and McCartney, Andy Partridge, Neil Finn, Colin Moulding, Tilbrook, and Difford among them

[eurochrissy2]

@ronhelf i have to agree with you there!

[Lindalee11861]

THIS HAS GOT TO BE ONE OF THE BEST "SUMMER SONGS", EVER!!!

(it's also one of the few "I'm really in love and happy" Squeeze songs!)

Thanks for posting it.

[cedricthecentaur]

@Lindalee11861 Yeah, Squeeze do tend to be a bit downbeat sometimes don't they eg Up The Junction. Labelled With Love etc. Good to see another side to them coming out on this one.

[jumbojay1]

Makes me feel like i'm 14 again. The summer of 96 is the last time i can remember the weather actually fulfilling the term 'summer.' I remember non stop blue skies. P.s at 01:16 i'd love to romp with the one in the red dres.

[thelonelyhunter]

Excellent. This is arguably Squeeze's best track of this period. Although Mssrs D & T never seem to rate it highly. It is certainly my favourite Squeeze track. Good comment from Simon. This summer is what you make of it and past summers are what you make of their memories. Great.

[reddevil70]

mint song love it xx carl in scarborough

[markschicken]

I love this song. Thanks so much posting.

[SimonB198207]

this song just resonates the kind of happiness i hope i'll find for myself one day. where you're just so in love and the summer is just one long kiss...

or summat.

good too see john thomson. think i'm going to get my Fast Show boxset out this afternoon. Grrreat...

[rayflute]

Does this video feature John Thomson from The Fast Show? Looks like him.

[FRANZ4EVA]

YES, I BELIEVE IT IS.

[rosielatter16]

yes it is John Thomson, I met all the boys when they filmed some of the the video in my "Amberley House" guest house in littlehampton, (i am picking up fruit which John has dropped to distract me from seeing the boys using the stairs) some of the beach scenes are filmed on the seafront Littlehampton and cafe scenes, in the dinky-do- diner, pier road Littlehampton, smarts amusements littlehampton and in other beach scenes are Hastings.

[FRANZ4EVA]

THANK YOU

[markb44z]

For anyone who doesn't know, this video is filmed in Hastings, England, I know because I live there!!

[Mania1129]

lol just thinking i recognise that place... i live in Bexhill!

[DarkPriestess1]

lols I thought it was weymouth

[blueneptune89]

I'm so glad somebody finally posted this! It's got to be one of the happiest songs ever- if only my generation grew up with music like this...I mean imagine it...

[nyr9430]

[therampantbookworm]

[archangelCAG]

i cant believe i've finally found the full vid to this song. i first heard this song when it first came out and then couldn't remember what it was called and no one i knew had ever heard it. about 6 or 7 years later and i now have a copy of the song and now ive found the vid. it was very frustrating not being able to find it!

thanks for posting it!

[FRANZYBABY9]
