  • such a great band. neil is a star anyone that can make an ascending scale sound that good are gonna impress me;)

  • Great song, (stays with you long after hearing it!), well sung and the band is suberb, I agree with an earlier comment they are very, very, under rated, I'm sure if they got some decent airplay they would be in charts and climbing.

  • Hello. My name is blind pig. I don't like jews or catholics, and I think that a youtube clip of a fairly successful band from the 90s is the ideal forum for venting that. Thanks.

  • @whyteay lmao lol you cant hate with this song playing in the background, my 3 year old daughters sitting playing with her new christmas presents with her mother as i listen to this, Perfect :-)

  • awesome band. very very under rated

  • I love you and I'm glad you know it too...

  • What's with all the nutcases (I'm looking at you sight-impaired porcine!) on this comment list?

    Anyway - a great tune! Reminds me of the Jolly Sailor, Canterbury, circa 1997/8...

  • We really should try some way to promote the divine comedy across the pond... perhaps a free track with a McDonalds?

  • @TheBlindPig1 twat

  • I SEE THE DEAD elephants

  • One of the best hits of '97

  • Oh old skool - good song

  • @thefriedliverattack thank you for your well wishes, I have not heard of this group that you refer to in your comment "america the humble pigeon", yet I am comforted to know that they have pretty wings. I am not a big fan of the Eagles, so I can agree with you, although you have obviously forgot an "s" at the end. Have a swell time freely expressing yourself to us, your sovereign usurping overlords.

  • His voice is orgasmic

  • maybe i was raped when i was born? maybe

  • this song reminds me of Booth and Brennan from Bones, for some reason xD

  • yes, even stalkers have lovesongs

  • @37maco fuck you america the humble pigeon has the prettiest wings of all not the eagle at all.

  • I made a small boy cry... <3 love Neil Hannon!

  • @TheWh4mmy the other day i swear to god this pigeon blew its brains out and the side of a building can anyone tell me why?really a pigeon flew straigt into the side of a building and died...why ?

  • @TheFriedLiverAttack Ive heard about that, they do it because they were already flying so fast, if it was a see through glass window, they thought they can go through it not realizing it was glass, or if it was one of those mirror windows, the ones that shows your reflection, if it reflected the sky or something it probably thought it was another area it can fly through not realizing it was just a reflection, and BAM! poor birdy. Breaks my heart.

  • you can either run from your fate or run to it or fight it or fight for it...but im faiteless.

  • @TheFriedLiverAttack AAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA PUUUAHAHAHAHAHAHA LOOOOOOLLL OMG

  • @TheFriedLiverAttack (except you)

  • to the jews...lmfao....what was the cause?think about the cause needs a solution would that be the final solution no that would be the cause...the cause of all this panic...yep as hitler said supress the bible...master and slave.

  • @TheFriedLiverAttack hello! whats your probleme loser? are you on drugs right?:P

    otherwise it's a great song from a great band!

  • @Iluvthosetightp me persious learning too fly giggles he has wings on his heels...

  • eveyones telling me that mother lies she swears shes a virgin but i can see in her eyes she was stolen from the morn and lay upon winters dawn

  • man must be hidden from his instics...must live by reason alone...shut the eyes of the dead...remember the nine lives of henry the ate antelope.

  • give them a little opium... or maybe a handful of dust>

  • Saw Divine Comedy on one of their Early tours when they played the Manchester Academy. He had an orchestra with him so the stage took up a third of the venue. He's a great performer and sounds as good live as he does on recording (a rare talent). Ideal tour would be him, Regina Spektor and Ben Folds.

  • agreed!

    i sign this. Three of the best performers ever!

    How talented tthey are!

  • i would kill for a duet of Neil and Morrissey :)

  • lol

  • I love it... Even though i can imagine it as a "Sex Pistols" song... Without offence...

  • what a classic song. only heard it on radia the other, i now love this band

  • Lovely song. I guess we've all been there. Letting go of someone you love and would do anything for is so painful ) - ;

  • Ups!! This story sounds familiar...

  • I think this is one of the best songs I've ever heard, and I have done since I first heard it as a child

  • A perfect pop song - love it!

  • Brilliant song. Genius lyrics. Love it.

  • I can really relate to this aswell as i'm chasing after a girl who i love and i have basically told everyone but her but i find this song mainly interesting as its talking about the typical male fantasy type of thing of wanting the person you cant really have

  • Not just males, believe me! LOL!

  • Lol i do like the way you put that but i'm sure its not just the male fantasy now you meantion it but that just makes it better in my oppinion

  • neil hamon has an incredible voice and furthermore he's one of best songwriter of the rock music

    his last record that I can't remember the tittle is full of songs as beautiful than this one!!

  • Eh...Neil Hannon.

  • this is what this song means to me, im gay and i really fancy this straight bloke at work! i have told every 1 exept him and he really dont know! dont mean to bring sexuality into this but i relate to the lyrics in this way. ps always been a great song b 4 i knew i was the other way!!!

  • Very theatrical clip! Everytime I hear it,I'm happy!Poor man!!

  • For serious, it's like prozac, right up there with the Pride & Prejudice miniseries.

  • this song should have won a grammy or two by now, at least.
