好き！

I've not looked down all the comments, but the b/w movie in this is "A Kind Of Loving". Great early 60's kitchen sink drama (remade as a 10 part tv series in the early 80's).

Anyways, the 1st side of Steve McQueen is the finest opening set EVER.

Enjoy

[Unjamestaylorable]

Makes me want to cry. This song is too beautiful for this world.

[thurshus]

genius!!! pure gold!!!

[Zarathoustran]

Simply and Probably one of the best album ever written. melodies and lyrics are nice, strong and stunning. Verry glee, guys, seeing that there are still fans who don't forget this amazing album. Cheers

[MartiW]

Agree. This and Bonny are heartbreaking songs. Bonny is my favourite song. I declare myself Ireland's top prefab Sprout fan. I love words and Paddy is a poet.

[kev10ok]

Genius!! end of story really,Paddy is so underrated it's frustrating....

[Starjammer74]

Such elegant pop craftsmanship. Too bad this song didn't feature on the "Best of Prefab Sprout" VHS collection that I've had for many years.

[catherine81227]

This song has been with me all my life. I love the album Steve McQueen. what a songwriter paddy is! how under rated were prefab spout ?oh im going to listen to cars and girls now. how sad that there best selling song was king of rock and roll? (me thinks) thank you for the post.

[bobman64]

This song has been in my life for nearly 25 years How did he know how to write exactly how I was feeling?? Seeing Paddy and the boys back perform this at the City Hall round the time of Gunman was a truly moving experience. A song of pure genius.

[joedonovanG32]

I cannot but agree wholeheartedly with all the sentiements expressed here. The vast vast majority of everything else that passes for "music" just pales into insignificance in comparison with all Prefab Sprout. Fan forever

[jdshipp]

Wow... the comments posted here prove what I have always believed to be true - Sprout songs have a way of becoming woven deeply into the lives of people who have taken them to heart. If life's not complete 'til my heart's missed a beat, then Paddy's music has certainly helped make that happen. This song gets stuck in my throat every time.

[afaguila]

my fave song is very important part of the soundtrack of my life

[jdshipp]

"Important," yes! Sprout songs are, in fact, truly important.

[brainbanana3000]

This song is just so wonderful. One of my all-time-always-and-ever-favou­rites.

Thanks for the Upload!

[ar4216]

This song is amazing and it is from a epic album.

[lyndayork1985]

what a tune simple and great,

[odasoup]

I love this tune!!!!♥

[Naoisevl]

Steve McQueen..what a wonderful timeless album.

[jdshipp]

One of the most amazing of all time.

[stanpnepa]

a real heart-ripper. possibly their very best song.

[jdshipp]

Quite possibly. There are so many.

[govindasantos]

whats wrong? a hiphop tune gets an award and sells millions while a gem of a tune like this stays here on youtube....

[ScudX]

The fact that you think those 2 musical genres are instrinsically opposed to each other by virtue of existing is testament to your own ignorance.

[govindasantos]

fact is you dont get it.....

[JaiBlueCave2]

I second your opinion: The best music is ignored, neglected, forgotten, thrown into oblivion... Look at the world around: that explains why it is so.

Prefab Sprout: a treasure to be found only for those who stick to the love for gorgeus melodies, sentiment, and still enjoy beauty.

[lailapaschoal]

Uuuuuu Johnny, Johnny, Johnny

[iersdutch]

Due to the length of this record, play very load.

[biddyficationprocess]

ace!

[uclrichard]

hailey mills...the foreign legion...thatcher's britain...best album of the 80s? certainly a contender....along with the smiths, the fall and the pet shop boys...

[roylikesitlikethat]

In a turbulent world out there, one sure way to switch of from reality is simply to listen to music like this.

[Fuff63]

This one kills me eveytime I hear it :-)

[dreizehnnullvier]

Mitici!!!Mi ricordano i miei 18 anni,quanti bei ricordi che rivivo con nostalgia riascoltandoli.Musica cosi non ne fa più nessuno,anche se li ascolto spesso,è piacevole guardarli e lasciare un commento su YT,e constatare inoltre che tanti provano le mie stesse emozioni.Ciao a tutti.

[maxfarquhar]

Love this song.

[PCMcG452]

Great great song. I remember my brother bought it on 12" vinyl. The B-sides were... um... not quite as good! Sure it was titled "Johnny Johnny" as a single. Can't believe it wasn't a massive hit, but would I still love it as much if it had been?

Now taking great pleasure in indoctrinating the next generation. The "Johnny Johnny Ooo" song will hopefully be a happy childhood memory to our kids as well. MP3 + car stereo + children = captive audience!

[onepebles]

gracias por colgar estos videos de uno de mis grupos favoritos!!!!!!!!!los echo de menos

[robypin58]

Gli anni passano ma questo rimane sempre un gande pezzo di musica pop

[BeholdZeus]

Without time one of the best all-time pop songs, and when pop actually meant something as a genre.

[Brodyville]

Well said! I miss those days. And this really is one of the best songs ever...can stirr up so many differenet emotions!

[TONDELEON]

This song certainly used to make me feel so down whenever i try to listen to it...and it still does, after all these years! Great song from this fave band of mine!

[bootray]

It's funny you should type that, but this song always had a sad feel for me as well, but I don't know why (the lyrics aren't particularly sad). Maybe it's the intro's descending guitar arpreggio. ;)

[Rollumadur]

Great song :D
