Cast - Fine Time

[StevenAbootmanWGA]

Best band I saw at T in the park 2011.

It's a shame Beyonce was packed as far as you could see but Cast was pretty empty.

People can't appreciate good music...fucking idiots...."all the single ladys :D" bore off.

[antimanc9]

I feel almost guilty that I allowed myself to forget how good this song was, haven't heard it for so long, just makes me realise how Cast were one the most underated bands of all time let alone one of the biggest contributors to brit pop in the 90's

[WelshWilliams123]

Real music!!!

[liaminpreston]

Take me down to Paradise City...

[TheBobski1972]

reminds me of getting caught thieving glue from an airfix shop.happy daze...as paul Simon said i should've found the right thyme.love from the BORO.good tune

[86petch86]

going to see these on the 17th cannot wait

[31531552]

Real music..no gold teeth niggers screaming about raping something or shooting something......

[dragon5937]

Louder please

[chelle1976ify]

bloody great stuff Oohhow i miss the 90tys

[jaseywasey50]

Still love the cover for All Change...seminal!!!

[mikfoz1]

top tune and very underated band,class.

[peterseo]

take me down to the paradise city where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

[addeduktree]

@peterseo wrong song mate

[BG041094]

thumbs up if you're still listening to this in 2011

[illyophone]

my godfather on the guitar here ;D

[CozImMrBrightside]

always one of those songs that ive heard before but never knew what it was called or who sang it. now i do :)

[tonaille]

WAKE UP ! ITS FUCKIN' "PARADISE CITY" FROM THE GUNS AND ROSES !!!

[Bansidhe]

@tonaille Who are "THE GUNS AND ROSES"?

What do you mean by wake up? I think that most people would realise that it's the same chord progression as Paradise City by Guns N' Roses but are aware that it's a completely different type of tune. Plenty of chord structures have been "recycled" by many different bands over the years to make great songs. Both Paradise City and Fine Time are massive choons though.

[RJM1011]

@tonaille This was out first !

[tonaille]

@RJM1011

Paradise City was out in 1987, when John Powers (sic) was in his nappies...

[choclatesaltyballz]

@tonaille bullshit. i was born in 82 and hes at least 5 years older than me nob gob

[RJM1011]

Just a GREAT U.K. song !

[jungleboyuk]

[indiechick411]

90's brit pop! cant go wrong!

[callicolady]

what's all this comparing this to guns n roses?...GNR= a bunch of L.A. posers, Cast=a proper fuckin band

[Irresolution]

@callicolady  wow.. u jumped on the "lets get into an argument" wagon Good 4 u big man!

[callicolady]

@Irresolution hey fucker i was sound engineer for Cast - shut it loser

[Irresolution]

@callicolady Which I assume would make you in your early 30's at the least, yet you still feel the need to bitch and name call. Keep up the good fight man!

[pbradman]

this is fab

[rkid313]

well said 1313sisco. and i agree with the other comments, this album should have been up there with morning glory.

[1313sico]

top band, highly underated, not a bad song on this album, kinda rare these days

[floppybollox3]

'CAST'- NEVER PUT A FOOT WRONG, NOT ONE DUD TUNE! They should have been as big as Oasis.

[ItsYourBlood]

@floppybollox3 Live the dream was "One Little Speckled Frog"! It was a bit shit to be honest..

But they still shoulda been as big as Oasis.. but that's the sacrifice ya make when ya sign to an Indie label

[proppanuts]

@ItsYourBlood

'One Little Speckled Frog'

I thought I was the only one who thought that. Your comment made me chuckle!

[whitebigpolarbear]

@ItsYourBlood oasis were signed to creation ,they were independant ..no sacrifice there..

[ItsYourBlood]

@whitebigpolarbear They were signed to Creation in the UK. They had a worldwide contract with Sony..

[dark1ankh]

Well Guns N Roses stole the riff during the verse from Black Sabbath's "Zero The Hero" !

[micktaylorpara]

best bsnd ever liddder

[ian200280]

fuck yeah!!

[SuperChampion9]

I know john power my dad was his recorder!!!!!

[plumtwo]

@SuperChampion9 Does that mean he got blown by him? ;)

[panzermort]

@SuperChampion9 ?

[conniec2619]

brilliant tune! It's like a breath of fresh air everytime i hear it. laaaaav it :)

[ian200280]

what a cracking tune!!! well cheers you up!

[jedwell77]

i so miss 90's music. Gone are the days of cast, bluetones, supergrass etc. The 90's absolutely were the best for the music industry. I spent my 20's in pubs watching proper bands playing real music unlike the utter shit we have to listen to today like jls. where have all the proper musicians gone?

[northernswagga]

@jedwell77 agreed

[oz1641]

ViVa BriTpOp !

[5104ATT]

nothing wrong with a bit of brit pop

[5104ATT]

this takes me back to the 90's when i was at school

[Pyschadelic60s]

66,000 views?7billion people are missing out ha

[slymike01]

arianprince,hate to point this out to you but ac/dc are australian lmfaoooooo love brit indie btw! love the twang right now,shithot band!

[gizwire78]

roll on nov 30>go on john lad.

[givingitashot1]

The sound of my life!!!!! Fucking epic track!!!

[MrHartster]

Love this tune.

[arianprince]

Dont bring your fake plastic American shit our way! You have Guns & Roses, Metallica and AC DC. We have The Stone Roses, Oasis and the La's! Very different music we got the soul and funk you got the slit wrist style.

[gtr71]

@arianprince I am American and agree with you! I hate the shit we have over here and love the Brit music scene, always have! The Roses, Oasis, La's are three of my very favorites. I grew up listening to the Bunnymen and Smiths in the 80's!

It's just the best music in the world! America needs another major British Invasion to get us back on track! RESPECT........

[MichaelGibney]

@arianprince AWESOME statement. American music SUCKS!!! Apart from the Pixies, who were signed to a British Label anyway. We're the Best at music. Americans know how to be cheesy when it comes to music, that's what they're good at. We have/had Doves, Joy Division, Happy Mondays, The Stone Roses, Blur, Oasis, Radiohead, Pulp, Elbow, Cast/La's, The Who, Beatles, Pink Floyd, The Smiths, Cure, Supergrass, Elton John, T-Rex etc etc heck I'd take even Coldplay over Hoobastank and Maroon 5 any day.

[arianprince]

Dont compare Guns & fucking Roses to the La's! Guns & Roses are a commerical, merchandised 'rock band' with their multi million dollar music videos and world wide recognition. The La's are a nitty gritty, original bunch of lads who write their music and put it together in the backroom of their house.

[BlondeRocknRoll]

class tune .... John Power, has a fantastic voice, up there with the best ..

[jimazel]

Epic tune. Timeless. J

[RJM1011]

Hey clam down lets have a drink !

NOW how was this never seen that same as morning glory ???? And im a manc !!!! the world of music is so much bullshit and the tunes tell all real ears say so !!!!!!! GREAT BAND

[BillyBigTop]

@irishkev666 ur words are so ture mate! everyones been brainwashed the past decade into all liking the same old gimicky shite!

miss Britpop from the 90's!! and im a scouser lol

[talltony100]

@irishkev666 innit,its not who its done by or where it came from, its how it makes you feel

[dwinCeffyl]

@irishkev666 Let's be honest, Merseyside and Manchester ARE indie!!

[dimsummad]

I left my last job to this tune. Am i happy ? Hell yeh....

[stump000]

aint heard this for ages, brings back memories of seeing them live, classic

[VampHammer1]

The La's were playing tunes like this before Guns and roses even met. Thats a fact so take Paradise city and stick it up Slashs hairy ass. Were Scousers lad. People rip us all the time. Proud to be a Scouser from the Gardens.

[bricksalegend]

well said scouse

[LeaperBoing]

@VampHammer1 You guys do get the piss taken right enough, but anyone slagging your music is commiting a worse criminal offence than you lot get associated with. Cast and The La's were a huge part of the 90's

[Psychocybinator]

@VampHammer1 :)

[mrsthnd893]

@VampHammer1 You're an idiot.

[VampHammer1]

Haha. Nice one loser. I will send you my CV if you want. Then we can compare it and see who's the idiot. I like your site by the way. You got a lot of friends. Read the comments. They actually meant something to some people. I take it your not a scouser so it dont matter one bit. See you later. Whoever you are.

[aelfredhauscarl]

@VampHammer1 The North West of England is the MEcca of music and anyone who knocks casts should realise that.

[jan9206]

@VampHammer1 Exactly. They're Scousers. They thought, "Nice intro, I'll 'av tha!"

[jan9206]

@VampHammer1 Exactly la! They are scousers. they thought, "nice intro, I'll 'av tha!"

[OLLYYYYYYYYYYYY]

@VampHammer1 for your information, this song was written in 1995, paradise city was written in 1986 and released in 1987 on appetite for destruction, so fuck you and the 13 people that liked your comment.

[brenhughes75]

@OLLYYYYYYYYYYYY 

hahaha divvy go and play with yer dollys lad

[jackfilth1]

@brenhughes75 ha ha ha ha nice one lad

[DirtyHarry69a]

@VampHammer1 Ay Ay Calm down calm down! They call us Brummies, Scousers wiv colds! hahahaha & i'm proud too!!

[MUDSHARK111]

@VampHammer1"The La's were playing tunes like this before Guns and roses even met" the las 84 guns n roses 85 , a bit of an exaggeration then ?

[Garethfeb16]

@VampHammer1

couldn't have said it better mate!!! watch mavers and power play my generation and then tell me that slash is more entertaining? mavers may not be classically trained but the guy has got soul!!!

[eddietheturdburglar]

@VampHammer1 CALM DOWN,CALM DOWN LAD,

[FLYBOYCATCH22]

@VampHammer1 WELL BLOODY SED LA, MADE ME DAY TA

[MrPeteofile]

@VampHammer1 yous scallys are all right. your piss takers just like us Dubs. sure, just look at my name ha ha ha . friends accross the sea.

[callicolady]

@VampHammer1 well said!!

[Sham3214]

Far better than paradise city..."Dont you think that life would be a little drab if we had the same thoughts."

[andyw0101]

better than paradise city

[rob58166]

great stuff from the scousers

[omgbarf]

Is it just me or does the opening totally rip off Paradise City by GNR? I'm a fan of both so I don't care, but the similarities are definitely there for me.

[seafortha]

yeah the start is pretty much identical..

[xxbittersweetsoulxx]

Cool song, but I can't believe you didn't include the Verve in that list!! How could you?!

[mottram09]

best band ever

[corraddo1]

me an my mates got back stage at dudley jb,s back around 93,they were great lads(well they were after theyd shared our coke black hash an j.daniels)mind you john powers was a misserable cunt! theyd just played blindin set....he shouldve been happy...is he the sensetive artist type.

[TheRod1966]

liverpool peps r the best ever

[allosgames]

This is an original by cast , although the lead singer/guitarist for cast is from the LA's , maybe this is where you are getting confussed.

Just my 2 pence , pls dont take it as gospel i was a heavily drunk teenager when this came out. lol

[JKNEVER69]

Hope you've given up the demon alcohol...(lol)

[cantonadenmark]

Bagzie...I think this was recorded in the early/mid 90´s and it's no cover at all...a Cast origional

[AndrewJimScott]

They used this for the BBC video promo.

[Thesurus02]

I've also got the promo on my DVD of Bottom. Mint song btw!

[TherymasterWidnes]

Bangin

[JimmygBHOY]

go on you Red Men!!

Scouse Power ;-) x

[JamesDUFC]

FUCKIN TUNE!!!!!

[ScreenFlavour]

take me down to paradise city

[seafortha]

the start is identical..

[bagzie]

This is a great song - but I always thouht it was an eighties song by one of those big-hair Def Leppard type bands. Am I right? Is this a cover and if it is, who sang it?

[samgoodrich09]

I DO PELLIV U ARE A TURD (CRAP)

[francesca97]

Cast rule

[samgoodrich09]

NOT AS MUCH AS TOTENHAM

[Spankabuttux]

Liverpool bands tend to really manage melody well, while Manchester bands are better at rock structure. It would be a wonderful band that had both, but unfortunately Scousers and Mancs can't stand each other!

[JohnVasco]

How you work that first sentence out completely escapes me. It's pretentious bollocks really.

Go listen to 'And your bird can sing', or 'Helter Skelter', or 'Birthday' or 'Rain' (for starters)or a host of other rock numbers by The Beatles, and then come back and show me a Manc band better at rock structure. There isn't one. Period.

[Spankabuttux]

Having used the word 'tend', I don't think my comment suggested these characteristics are across the board. I agree, The Beatles were the full package: but in terms of contemporary bands I think my point holds true.

[BlackSwordy]

Fookin top draw

[J4f94]

brilliant song, think cast are great.

[novaberbe]

From Holland and loving this a lot!

[britpopmodliz]

[Ianesque]
