I've just discovered these guys after the live concert on radio at Manchester Cathedral. There is a realism about the lyrics, the words and arrangements that make them very private to people. I could have sworn that Guy was talking to me personally during the brilliant concert. So emotional, so beautiful. Nothing needs added or taken away. Thank god I didn't go through life without discovering this amazing band.
When they performed it at reading and I was surrounded by my friends,singing at the top of our lungs , it was literally one of the best moments of my life. This is now one of my favourite songs :)
@Sothenthisisshit I SAW THEM A READING TOO!!! I was with my friend and I was in tears! At this point the sun was setting and everything was so peacful, i definetly would say it was one of the happiest moments of my life.
i just got goosebumps when they sang it in Rock Werchter in Belgium... i never knew of them, now i'm a huuuuge fan! gotta see them again quite soon in November... best song of the year!
@Nickah37 why doesn't that persons name belong here?? Its a YouTube name, So if your ganna tell someone they cant listen to music over that. Then you don't belong here
Wonderfull song, I saw them live last saturday and I really loved this song. It's almost like you're floating on the water when you closing your eyes ;-)
Pinkpop 2011, I won't forget. I Thank the guys from Manchester =)
@imF0X isn't it fantastic to be alive? i mean, it's fucking incredible. is there a place you'd rather be? or is there no other place you could possibly be? i couldn't ask for more, nor begin to expect or imagine it
@HoulihanFryingPan it IS fantastic to be alive!! there is no place i would rather be, instead of possibly a small café in london where i may perhaps look out the window and be able to grasp the chill in the wind with my eyes and absorb the overcast skies with a smile. My friend, it is definitely incredible. This 17 year old is just beginning to realize.
man having listened to elbows past 4 albumns i have ridiculously high expectations for this one. listening to the first two songs i would say it is living up to my expecations! great songs ('the birds' and 'lippy kids', first two tracks)
Reading 2011. Will never forget the moment they played this
