just played this song at about 2.30am in a night club on a saturday night, the whole dance floor sat down while singing along. i think it was the best moment i have ever had while DJing! what an amazing song
met ma man in 89 married in 93 had a wee boy in 94 his middle name is James..rememember my dad-in-law singing.....oh sadam sit effing down he did eventually
das primeiras musicas k me ficaram na memoria por ser muito alegre pois lembra os bons tempos de kando tinha 15 anos e iamos aos domingos á tarde pra disco k saudades desses tempos ....................
Can't believe this song didn't make it to No.1, hate that it only got to No.2! This is one of the anthems of the 90's, still hear it now when I go to footie games. You can't sit down to this tune, even though that's what it is called lol. Cheers for posting!
I remember when I bought their first album I was hooked. This group has some really catchy songs and you feel good listening to them. I would listen to their album at night and it was a great escape. James is a great band and I always enjoy listening to their songs!
I went to watch CITY vs Ipswich, must be about 12 years ago now and he was in the Station Hotel pub....
They had a video jukebox and he and his family/friends must have put this video on 12-15 times, with a cheer every time he appeared.
Fook knows the result of the match, but in that pub, that day we had a good beer and a good sing..... mostly CITY songs, but partly James "Sit Down"....lol
this song as so much meaning to differant people i bet you can relate to something james is singing. "those who find there touched by madness: fits me having a personality disorder, i have this but also i listen to great music that speaks to you. enjoy the video sit down by james, fantastic
Hey that's cool. We called our first born Sebastian after the Scottish band Belle & Sebastian. I love the line in this song "If I hadn't seen such riches, I could live with being poor". My wife and I met as back packers in London. Our song was freak scene by Dinosaur Jr. Could've called our boy Freak!
'Those who find themselves ridiculous, sit down next to me' - right up there with 'to die by your side is such a heavenly way to die' as lines of dubious solidarity and romanticism (which still move me).
This was the anthem of Manchester. It brings back all the memories of the time I lived there from 1991 to 1992. Thank you James for this brilliant song and thank you Manchester. It was a great time.
