XTC - I Remember The Sun

[RoofLight00]

lie back, relax, turn off and float downstream.......

[donlopeaguirre112]

XTC- the almost jazz neo-psychedelic post punk alternative wave band! Just BRILLIANT.

[JavelBleach]

It's just layers & layers & layers of pure genius!

Where have I been these last 20 years?!



[etamommy]

This song is absolutely fantastic!

[TheTmantyla]

Brilliant splashing breaking crashing stars fusion make crushing yearning power flash sprinklesparks meandering flush emotivation mnemonic mesmerizes mind...

No words can create the feeling this stunning jazz/pop mind-explosion evokes.

I've been looking for it since the mid-90s, when it disappeared from radio. Thank God somebody found it and posted it here! I thought it was a post-apocalyptic memory/wish made under dead, broken skies--or underground?--but it's a schoolchild's blazing memory!

I'm in love with this song. My favorite Colin song!!!!

[AMPSHOWS]

Kinda the Brit Steely Dan I'd say!

[101Volts]

@AMPSHOWS They did listen to Steely Dan. I'm not sure how much Andy and Colin were into them, Dave liked them a lot though.

[javiertenazas]

@101Volts Andy liked them too

[101Volts]

@javiertenazas Thanks.

When you simply get too good for pop formats- jazz is the only thing left. see Beach boys, led Zep., et al. a Lovely song

[JavelBleach]

@saguaroboy I think "jahzz" diminishes what this band and its songwriters do - Way beyond and better than all the drab jazz I've ever heard.

[ikeaaron]

This has a shamefully dismal number of views.

[therealsoulproduct]

Very jazzy and smooth tune by Colin.

[asianflvors]

wow, imagine if that did actually happen...

[ikeaaron]

This tune gives me chills...

[jhetta22]

havent heard this in forever....simply awesome !

[bekkyxtcfan97]

i remember the sun...

great song :)

[cathridge]

Love this song, especially the bridge back in to the chorus. Great piano. Dave is so talented.

[londoncab100]

That for me is just about as good as pop music can get . Fucking brilliant .

[jhetta22]

@londoncab100 without a doubt......these guys were just amazing tunesmiths, with such great musical sensibilities.

[existentialcwby]

i love how these guys seamlessly and effortlessly span disparate genres of music. this song is so moody and dark, colins awesome.

[dooley42]
