No I'm not the young American singer. I'm the other, grown up, John Mayer. Yes, I do have lovely memories of Paul being nervous before gigs in Glasgow, Robert planning ahead and bringing record company people to see them when they were called 'macintyre' ie pre Blue Nile
I am the only person in the world to have some demos we made before the band had released their first single. I gave them recording gear, paid for that first single and was in the studio during the making of some tracks - Paul even asked me to write a few lines which he used for inspiration (NB he did not steal these - I gave them). Yes, very special people but sadly I don't see them any more. Cest la Vie
They should release the next album - with Meanwhile of course! - with a bonus live disc/dvd so more people realize how many timeless masterpieces they've written over the years.
You haven't lived til you've seen them live. I've been very fortunate to see them 7 times since 1988. absolutely awesome. take you to another place- breathtaking.
Sublime. I agree with thebluenile0 and eigreebo. It's time messrs Buchanan and co put out a bits and bobs release with this and Easter Parade featuring R. Lee-Jones.
brilllllllant love these cunts!

Unspeakably beautiful. The Blue Nile, like all the great pop bands, make me feel very happy and very sad at the same time.

somebody asked "who are these" this band is THE BLU NILE they are playing since 1980 if I don't recall this wrongly.
Awesome version of the classic, I couldn't expect less from Paul Buchanan, thanks for this song!
