i'm not dead and gone yet, but when i go this will be my song going out of this world, a happy man, brilliant, you don't get music like this nowadays, can anybody today that has been to a party say they had a sing along bet no just noise
Fantastic record and I saw Gallagher and Lyle live at Alexandra Palace a lifetime ago. I don't go along with all this, 'when did they stop making great records' crap. There are some great bands today, think Coldplay, Snow Patrol, Noah & The Whale and dozens of others.
I'm 60 years old and going downhill fast. Can someone out there tell me or remind me exactly when it was that decent, innocent music like this song stopped being the Norm, and was overtaken by todays crap? Thank you so much for this posting. x
Hi mate, same as, just turned down the slippery slope, maybe it's just an age thing but the music today doesn't seem to be of the same calibre as way back when....
@willmurphy1951 this song that i like was a hit end 1970 , early 1971 , i m 58 year and very happy not be young now .Not that i hate the young ones , it s not their fault it all happen .
@catblack10 - I fondly remember G & L's performance of the song as a duo on BBC2's 'Sight and Sound In Concert'. It was in the key of C, rather than D, and featured Graham on lead vocal/mandolin and Benny on harmony vocal/acoustic guitar with a harmonica on a frame. WHEEZE!
Now listen children, I know you're not going to believe this, but once upon a time long long ago, people were able to make great music just by stretching some wires across little boxes of wood which they used to call "Guitars" and 'Mandolins".
I know, I know, it sounds incredible, but this was before they invented ipods and Cheryl Cole, and it was a long, long time ago.
I can't remember the title but it had some really good lyrics that went "it has been a lazy afternoon" and "all night thinking how she threw my love away", anyone know the song?
Love this song, brings back memories of Christmas 1970 in North London, drinking bacardi and coke, brut aftershake and load of other senitmental stuff when I was 17.
Still love the song, still got the single I bought in Finsbury Park
Brilliant song... I remember when I was young lad in the late 80s, I used to think this song was depressing. These days, it's one of the most upbeat, springy tunes in my collection.
Great song....if you can catch the Manfreds in concert they still do it - I saw them in Worthing in April 2010 ........ a luvverly birthday treat. Tom McGuiness is still brilliant, and it's worth the admission price just to see/hear Paul Jones play the Gob Organ. That's not fair on the rest of the Band as they are all superb, but it's just that Tom and Paul are the best that you can be. Go and see them if you get the chance.....you won't regret it.
This was my granddads funeral song. He only died in march and his death is still raw but when i hear this song, i just have to smile. It is so fitting for him. He had to make sure everyone was happy before himself and would hate to think that we were mourning his death. If he taught me anything it was LIVE TODAY TO THE FULLEST BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN TOMORROW!
@Iamthemusicgirl1 Fellas like that and their lives are a delight to the God who made them, and gave them this great pre-Heaven to practice in for the rest of the eternal trip. Be joyous. You had his company for a goodly while, now, Heaven wants him to light them up a bit.
Very nicely done; simple but effective. I like seeing the next line below the current line. I haven't heard this song in decades and really enjoyed listening to it in stereo. GREAT JOB!!

hello there slim shady... meet my mama if you really do got balls... kiss kiss hug hug forever n' eternally yours is my love... life is a strange strange place for sure...
Thanks so much for this. Audio is great. Wonderful song. I see it was posted in 2007. I hope you are still kicking ass. Thanks Bro. Just Magic. Every word. sPriNkLeS on you - whoever you are.
I was about six when this was in the top 40 and being such a little kid, misheard the lyrics. I thought it was "Oh-ho-oh-oh, when I met a gnome"! I had my poor old mum running round all the record shops in Derby asking for 'the song about the gnome for my little girl'!! Lol! Still love it all these years later - thanks for posting.
When Gallagher and Lyle's subsequent hit as a duo, "Heart On My Sleeve" first came out, I thought it was called "Hat On The Street"!! It was Graham's thick Scots accent that threw us both!
Met tam in a pub in glasgow.He was riddled with cancer and all sorts.He picked up a 3 string out of tune giutar and proceded to give it plenty in perfect tune and play slide with abroken pint glass nearly got us tossed out.Wont forget him in a hurry.
This is a classic single, but Gallagher and Lyle's live version of this song in the late 1970s was even better. It was in the key of C, rather than D, and featured Graham on lead vocal/mandolin and Benny on harmony vocal/acoustic guitar with a harmonica on a holder.
It's on the BBC/Strange Fruit CD "Live In Concert". You can buy this on the internet; type "Gallagher and Lyle albums and CDs for sale" into a search box.
stanfordn, sorry if facebookers annoy you. Unless they are being profane, why do you want them to not comment? (I haven't read ALL the comments but so far they look tame). A nice song, one I hadn't heard before.
Sod the bookfacers - this tune was written by Gallagher and Lyle I think just before they jumped ship - total classic. Its kindof like Dropkick Murphys shipping out to Boston in the sense that youd hear it at a party when the insanity was peaking. Great stuff. Thanks post.
@CarolinaGrill search for fury in the slaughterhouse same song title ..lil bit faster and just a great cover ..the band isn't anymore but had great music =)
Here I am from facebook also. I lived the 70's and never had heard this song or maybe I just don't remember this song. Anyway, the quiz sucked...I am not this song.
thank you for this fab song song,and the lyrics,fer yearsme n ma pal scobie,sang this song,oor wurds,wer aw wrang,bit ye no wit,itdidnae matter.ta jim the jannie x.
I totally agree one of the best songs ever. And then you have recent artists like TI who cant think of anything new and have to take awesome songs like this and make their own shitty remakes.
When my brother died a few years ago a strange coincidance happened around this song. About a month after he died I saw someone that looked exactly like him at a cafe. I went out to the car and turned on the radio, and this song came blaring out the radio. Shortly before he died my brother told me I would see him again. He had given this album to me as a gift years before. Even stranger- his wife's name at the time of his death was Linda. Just wanted to share this story with you
Thank you amputd; that's most interesting and thought provoking. Of course, life is full of coincidences and it is sometimes difficult to filter out the real and the imagined. Yours is real because you are a genuine and loving person. Thank you again.
Saw Tom MeGuiness touring with the Manfred Mann troupe, plus some others. He sang this - one of the best songs of the evening; caught everyone by surprise ! Simple, clean music. Can't top it !!
Yep and I thouroughly recommend the CD collection called The Capitol Years. Igrew up with this and the B side was truly awsome called Lazy Afternoon. Absolutely one of the best records ever.
Your lyrics say "I don't want nobody to mourn beside my GRAVE". Didnt' you notice they really sing "beside my BED"? Significantly, Fury In The Slaughterhouse keeps by the official "grave"....
Your welcome - in fact, come to think about it, I think the lyrics are "it's just the booze talking" (not the blues). After all, the song's about malt and barley (liquor).

Your lyrics say "I don't want nobody to mourn beside my GRAVE". Didnt' you notice they really sing "beside my BED"? Significantly, Fury In The Slaughterhouse keeps by the official "grave"....

@hgdebruin Get your ears checked. They do sing grave not bed.

Can someone put up Blues Talking

Think you'll find they already have - it's actually called Malt and Barley Blues, pal

Your welcome - in fact, come to think about it, I think the lyrics are "it's just the booze talking" (not the blues). After all, the song's about malt and barley (liquor).
