I would give anything to go back to 1989/1990 when music was so much better and times where less stressful and chaotic. Then again, at least we have the internet and technology today, which allows us to reminisce and reflect on the past with nostalgic affinity. I guess that is the next best thing to actually entering a time machine.
After all these years I still love this song. Takes me back to the summer of '91 and my first real relationship with a girl. Driving around in her crappy Jetta with the top down listening to this song while she told me about our future...
I always liked this song, but never seen what they looked like. Now that I have seen, I was not surprised. Her voice matches her looks. .... Adorable.
this song was a great way to seal a great decade. loved the 80's. bet she didn't know she was introducing a whole new music genre for the 90's. cranberries, garbage, & so many others followed. thanks sundays, for the great lead in.
"It's the memories of the shed that make me turn red. Surprise, surprise, surprise......" Harriet Wheeler, the voice of an angle. Wonderful song from a wonderful era. I wish I could go back.
The hedonism, selfishenss and anti-intellectual decade known as the 1980s came to an end. Baby boomers had to pack it up and turn the world over to a more pragmatic, communal and no-nonsense generation.
And as the '90s began, songs like this bade goodbye to a culture of silliness and ushered in a thoughtful time, open to true progress and peace.
But aren't we right back at that? The 80s has some good shit, and I love the 90s. But it seems like we're right back at the vapidness and bullshit that was the 80s. Sometimes I wonder why so many people hold the 80s in high regard culturally. I guess nostalgia makes people love some stupid shit.
@CyberSpectrumND We are not at all back at that. The early 80's saw babyboomers grasping onto their youth with things like "Longevity" magazine, "recreational" drugs and voting for an anti-intellect who promised both the moon and lower taxes. The current generation has a much deeper sense of social responsibility and accountability. Unlike the generation that started the 80s, for the current one, it is not all about them. The politics of the day reflect that, in my own opinion.
What a pathetic job by Vevo or whatever "official" camp put this song up Crap-ass audio quality -- phasing in and out particularly on the right channel. It's sad that I found a much higher-quality audio version of this song by a private poster.
@DroverChicago It's preferable to find a better quality version by a private poster. It means you don't have to sit through these stupid ads on every Vevo video.
One of the best bands of that era or since, a pity they're no longer active. All 3 of their albums were brilliant. Perhaps they decided there were better things to do.
very fortunate to see them during the RW&A tour in 1992. I was attending FSU at the time and the concert was free to college students. You dont see that nowadays in this economy which is kind of sad. Anyway I loved them in highschool and when the opportunity came to see them live and free no less I jumped at the chance. So glad I did they were great live! Harriet's voice is just as beautiful in the live setting
I remember hearing this song years ago when I saw here singing in this video I was like 'wow she sounds so lovely' being a lot younger I was also thinking I wonder if she's single? Then I remembered my reality and thought 'oh hell she'd never go for a guy like me who am I kidding I'm in position to date a fine woman like her!' too bad my financial situation has yet to improve for I still feel the same!
What a wonderful group. Such a simple, clear, beautiful sound. Even when they rock hard on some of their other songs, they have a sensitivity which is just so nice. Ms Wheeler's voice is superb. Group has been inactive for the past 10 years or so, as they went off to "raise their children". The kids should be old enough by now to stay at home while the group makes some new music and tours.......hint hint.
Makes me think of the good ol college days of the early 90's. Trying to find myself in this crazy world. Hooking up w/ my frat bros and drinking windex and going streaking. . . I'm 45 now and watch Nancy Grace, FML
@bigdsears I turned 45 in August, I can't find my way in this crazy World, but in 1990 I started a 16 year job then ended in 2007. Only the past looks bright to me
As the '80s slipped into the '90s and wry sarcasm & blissful ignorance gave way to a more cynical yet pragmatic time, we were given certain songs that helped define the time and accompany us into the new era. This sweet ballad was one of the first.
Culturally speaking, this was one of the first videos of the '90s and one of the first voices of Generation X...a generation, btw, who truly cared.
Beautiful song,very watchable video,enthralling vocal performance from Harriet Wheeler,glistening guitars,tell me, what more can you ask for? Pure genius..
@Sixxer7 I KNOW...The Sundays were so amazing the way they had with guitarlines and the way they managed not to come off prissy or pompous in anyway. Harriet was always somewhat mysterious and enigmatic to me as a kid because her words are sometimes very dark but her vocals are very loving and sweet........
@NostalgicTimeMan Sorry man, I'm not seeing it. 2:12 seems close and out of focus. After that she wipes the sweat from her forehead. Please help me with what you see. Thx.
@sclingeman that's exactly what i see. idk i just think its cute (i usually dont say that) but then i guess that anything she does is cute lol man i love Harriett Wheeler
This song is great.It has jangly melodic guitar and is sung by a woman that has a great voice. Her voice is unique and she is not trying to emulate the divas like so many of the American Idol contestants try to ya know the Mariah Careys and the Whitney Houstons.This song was never reallly a big hit but it is so much better than any of the crap that wins Grammy Awards
I agree but that Rap-Crap is so entrenched now it's sickening! There would be screams of racism if the record companies stopped playing it. Unless the Record companies grew a set. We can only hope.
@HarryCalahan1 As much as I agree the rapp sucks.I think hip hop was the worst thing to ever happen to music.The record companies are making money from it and that is all they care about.The recording industry is not about art it is a business.
The Sundays never got the credit they deserved. They were innovators on 2 levels and that is something few bands ever achieve .First they created a genre of music that would dominate the mid 90`s. The second is Harriet Wheelers Angelic voice unique style of singing. The massively successful bands The Cranberries and Six pence none the richer both had female singers who copied Harriets vocal delivery and played this same acoustic pop style of music. Harriet is a earth angel in looks and in voice
@DoubleVisionandco Agree wholeheartedly with your comment. The Sundays were definitely overlooked even as bands heavily indebted to them had some success. The Sundays' music is just terrific--unfortunately we don't have enough of it.
now alot older i am not afraid to admit i loved this band! when i was in grade school def worried to be labeled fag when i heard this. this really brings back memories when i had no cares in the world. sniff. back to the real world-working for a living scraping by
@muttr That's true.I do think some people would call someone a fag for listening to this but these are the same people that will watch someone like Justin aTimberlake dance around on stage. It's amazing what is considered cool to listen to and what is not.
This is one of those songs that you don't hear to often. I always enjoyed it, but could never remember much about it. I heard it at a department store a few weeks ago, but then forgot any lyrics that might help me figure out the name of it... Then a week later I heard it, again, playing at a mall. That time I remembered some lines, and looked it up as soon as I could. Great song.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
People should be made to listen to this song for punishment. Too bad we no longer have stocks like in colonial days. We could lock this group in the stocks and throw rotten fruit and vegetables at them.
If your city has a AAA (Adult Album Alternative) radio station, support it any way you can! They play music like this (and great new music, that the mainstream shuns), but most people are still sadly unaware of these stations! And if you're not familiar with "AAA" music, go to Wikipedia and look up "Adult Alternative" or "Americana music", and read about it... Should give you an idea.
@wyleehokie... I LOVE the Sundays, but I dislike it because of the poor audio quality. I would expect better from Vevo. Listening right now in my Bose headphones and it's just horrible...fading in and out....as if it was recorded at a very low 96 bit rate. My cassette tape from 1990 sounds better than this ;)
I thnk there are a ton of great Britishbands right now. America has become immune to it tho, in my opinion. They want there over produced, artifical crap. So have it they will. But there are bands like; Mumford and sons, friendly fires, silent film, etc...
@MIvarsson99 Um yeah bitch.. adjective, -tri·er, -tri·est.
1.
oppressively hot and close or moist; sweltering: a sultry day. and I did say innocent. So in my opinion if you combine the two that's how I would describe it. You can disagree ...fine. but you come across as an ass.
We need another British Invasion to give the USA a musical enema and flush away the cRap we have to endure now. There's good music out there but we don't get to hear it because the corporates want to stay safe with the junk that does sell. No wonder radio and MTV are dead.
@gooboo1000 It's just how I feel! I know some people will disagree, but so far a few HAVE agreed. After reading your comment I realized that this is a safer forum in which to say things like that. Most of the people who'd hate my comment have no interest in The Sundays or this type of music and wouldn't post here.. I did dig out my copy of Reading, Writing and Arithmetic after I commented - it's just as pleasant as I remember.
@Marckyle64 : I'm with you, and admittedly due to the bombardment of junk music, I haven't cared to keep up to much with recent developments in worthwhile music. Having said that, my impression of current music coming out of the U.K seems to be quite dismal. Sadly, most of the new bands and musical acts I've seen come out of the U.K recently seem to be emulating American artists and trends instead of being innovative as they once were.☹
@Marckyle64 It's not about sales. It's about social conditioning. The UK is in an even worse state then America when it comes to music because nearly everyone tows the party line when it comes to pop culture. 80's British music is over, unfortunately. But there's always hope for the future!
@danerook Hi there, actually I have purchased all of their CDs as they are not "one hit wonder" CDs with a bunch of filler songs. My favorite is Static and Silence, but all three studio albums are great. I think you can find the single Summertime on You tube. Love Harriet in that cute little skirt of hers!
you said it, sister...(or brother). lol I'm offended that I went to watch/listen to this and there's little miss Bozo wig advertising her latest piece of crap-- but whatever. what great memories this song holds...and Harriet's divine voice.
Recently, I was in the dentist chair and this song played. It made me a little sad and it also got me thinking. Then I couldn't get it out of my mind. Great song.
I heard this song at the Old Navy I work at and loved it. She's got a beautiful voice. Had no clue this group was from the late 80's. Why had I not heard of them? The 80's were my decade. Aged from years 8 to 17 and watched MTV constantly. Don't remember this group though, unfortunately. This is definitely my kind of music.
I like it a lot!

@wyleehokie... I LOVE the Sundays, but I dislike it because of the poor audio quality. I would expect better from Vevo. Listening right now in my Bose headphones and it's just horrible...fading in and out....as if it was recorded at a very low 96 bit rate. My cassette tape from 1990 sounds better than this ;)

I thnk there are a ton of great Britishbands right now. America has become immune to it tho, in my opinion. They want there over produced, artifical crap. So have it they will. But there are bands like; Mumford and sons, friendly fires, silent film, etc...

I dont know about you guys, but the instrumental part of this song sounds eerily like 'cemetry gates' by the smiths.

God.... her voice is Sultry and innocent at the same time.
spudhufer 9 months ago
@spudhufer You just proved that you have no earthly idea what the word "sultry" means.
Harriet's voice is clear as a bell.
MIvarsson99 9 months ago
@MIvarsson99 Um yeah bitch.. adjective, -tri·er, -tri·est.
1.
oppressively hot and close or moist; sweltering: a sultry day. and I did say innocent. So in my opinion if you combine the two that's how I would describe it. You can disagree ...fine. but you come across as an ass.

We need another British Invasion to give the USA a musical enema and flush away the cRap we have to endure now. There's good music out there but we don't get to hear it because the corporates want to stay safe with the junk that does sell. No wonder radio and MTV are dead.

@gooboo1000 It's just how I feel! I know some people will disagree, but so far a few HAVE agreed. After reading your comment I realized that this is a safer forum in which to say things like that. Most of the people who'd hate my comment have no interest in The Sundays or this type of music and wouldn't post here.. I did dig out my copy of Reading, Writing and Arithmetic after I commented - it's just as pleasant as I remember.

@Marckyle64 : I'm with you, and admittedly due to the bombardment of junk music, I haven't cared to keep up to much with recent developments in worthwhile music. Having said that, my impression of current music coming out of the U.K seems to be quite dismal. Sadly, most of the new bands and musical acts I've seen come out of the U.K recently seem to be emulating American artists and trends instead of being innovative as they once were.☹

@Marckyle64 It's not about sales. It's about social conditioning. The UK is in an even worse state then America when it comes to music because nearly everyone tows the party line when it comes to pop culture. 80's British music is over, unfortunately. But there's always hope for the future!

@danerook Hi there, actually I have purchased all of their CDs as they are not "one hit wonder" CDs with a bunch of filler songs. My favorite is Static and Silence, but all three studio albums are great. I think you can find the single Summertime on You tube. Love Harriet in that cute little skirt of hers!

I heard this song at the Old Navy I work at and loved it. She's got a beautiful voice. Had no clue this group was from the late 80's. Why had I not heard of them? The 80's were my decade. Aged from years 8 to 17 and watched MTV constantly. Don't remember this group though, unfortunately. This is definitely my kind of music.

pfft. It's because you were probably listening to crap mainstream in the 80s and not good music.Looks like it took you 20 years to catch up.
