  • This looked like a great gig. A really nice, intimate venue.

  • love it - U little wonder x

  • What a memory - nuff said!

  • braw

  • Musica con alma. Directo. La diferencia estriba en que los artistas disfrutan dl efecto que provocan en el público que está disfrutando de lo que hacen, delante de ellos. Por otro lado esta la musica de estudio, en la que el artista esta cansado de repetir su parte mientras oye las otras por los auriculares, frente a una ventana de cristal en la que unos tecnicos le estan diciendo que repita desde el trozo anterior, para conseguir una perfeccion totalmente artificial y carente de sentimiento.

  • Great as always

  • best song ever heard

  • waited nearly twenty years to see this band live and they were awesome-hearing this live and joining in was the most amazing live experience i ever had-this song should be our national anthem!!!!

  • fuckin fantastic.

  • Great quality video of a top song.

    When Lorraine starts dancing with her tambourine at 1.27, I want her so bad. Cute as hell.

  • A MASTERPEICE ..GON YERSEL GLESGA !

  • Ricky and Lorraine were about to lose their jobs here!

  • They still sound great,good times

  • This song canny fail to tear your heart! All about the "wee" man, living his life , taking his "piece" to work in the Sunblest poke,waiting for his dreams to come...All in the name of Dignity, which he kept..pickin up the rubbish, bein called Bogey,...eatin his piece and waitin for his time, where he would rise above it all. What a song!

  • i was there in 2007!

  • The song is not about dreaming. It is actually about a man who works a dead end job for all his life (works as a litter picker). People look down at him and take the micky, however while he's doing this dead end job he's saving his money so that when he retires he can buy a boat ("A ship called dignity), something he always wanted to do, so he can sail the world... so he can have the last laugh.

  • anybody know what the songs about??

  • it's about dreaming, it's all there in the lyrics: even the guy who picks up litter has dreams.

  • I reckon this song is about a normal working class guy, maybe a bit older - certainly of a lost generation now! A guy who people think of as quiet, thus the kids have the 'bogie' impression of him! Maybe a bit misunderstood though, as he reads Maynard Keynes. However, underneath it all, he still harbours dreams, like anyone else, although his may be tamer in comparison to jetting off round the world. A man of simple pleasures. But a proud man.

  • Thats exactly what its about. And it is meant to inspire.

  • AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGGG

  • brilliant love this song!

  • Absolutely fucking brilliant!!!!!

  • superb mate cheers

  • excellent video mate nice one!
