'A Natural' that follows this, is one of the most honest and moving lyrics I've ever heard, and I'm not prone to exaggeraton either. Saw the boys several times in DUblin and Glasgow back in the mid-nineties and again when the played the reunion gig at The Olympia 5 or 6 years ago, Simply amazing, I hope they give it another go and steal the world this time !
Seen them twice in past fortnight. Didn't have high expectations, just went for for the nostalgia. Well fuck me, they were brilliant. I've never seen a frontman like Feargal, he is captivating. It's almost uncomfortable watching him. Lying on his back screaming into mic, walking around hugging the crowd. The passion and intensity of the man is almost frightening. Spread the word that they're worth seeing, we can't let this great band fade away again
I bought the album in about 1998 - and the one after ......... INCREDIBLE BAND !!! WTF happened - They were too ahead of there time.......... Better than Snow Patrol or any of the manufactured albums that have been produced on Irish soil - Makes me sad that talent like this gets overlooked .......... Bad Books - One of my favourite songs EVER ... LOVE you guys whatever you doing now ... xxx Post and let us know ...
@superchicgeek saw them in cork last night - unbelievable show with some new songs - hopefully they're back because they're better than any other Irish band out there by a long way
lets get these guys back together, powerful emotional rollercoaster following these fantastic guys , incredible middle eight and haunting backing vocals and strings where are these guys ......
Saw them on No Disco, and went out and bought the album, loved it, in fact I have had 3 copies of Heartworm, between playing it too much , or friends "forgetting" to return it, just put it into your CD, and hit the repeat button, and you will be taken away to a wonderful place. Songwriting has taken a turn since these guys stopped producing - But my god, there are NO bad tracks on this album. Gifted, talented I wish them nothing but the best. Great band
I used to listen to this song on repeat while trying to sleep, it has so much going on that it used to get me thinking about everything but sleep (in a good way!).
Utterly, brilliantly, heart-wrenchingly sublime. A poet at work. Thanks for posting it.
Without a doubut THE most underared adnd in irish music history. This album is more and artistic statement than an essay in pop success. Fantastic stuff!
Please buy this album.The name of it is Heartworm by Whipping boy.One of the greatest ever Irish albums.This is one of the most honest soulful 'love' songs ever written.Keep performing Fergal
@kershawnick I bought this when I was 18. I'm 32 now and I have bought this album again on I tunes. Happy memories, every song catches you and turns you and then when you stand up straight you're way happier than before you bought the album but a little sadder.
I just knew they where better than what they got in the 90's..this time its the world..youtube will do what record execs could'nt!
