Why are people always talking about other bands that the ones you are listen to right now?!
Some bands are better than the other. But none of them sucks! cmon. some people listen to that. Maybe some people like bands you totally hate!! So what?! That person enjoys it! Just shut up and talk about The Verve. Cuz this is a song by The Verve.. and no other great band
how can you not feel the hook pulling you into the emotions of this song? one person in love, the other not. what angst! i love this song so much. it's not my very favorite verve song but recently it is my now favorite. when i wear out on this song and catching the butterfly i'll go back to the a storm in heaven album!
This brings back some AMAZING memories for me-I went to see The Verve headline Slane Castle in 1997, when I was only 15!!! That weekend was amazing... Richard Ashcroft is one of the most gifted musicians alive-EVER! He's a brillaint song writer, and his voice is truly unique & stunning! Im gonna dig my old Verve CD's out, and have a listen tonight-Along with a lot of booze lol-Now that it's legal :P
More people need to open their ears and minds to The Verve and the genius that is Richard Ashcroft! One of the best songwriters ever. Definetly in my lifetime anyway.
music has suffered because artists and record companies have become all about a dollar and it has sucked away all of the creative talent and uniqueness that once created great music the verve will always be one of the greatest bands of all time and I dont care if they are not on anyones great list they are on my great list
@buzzardsbay30 sorry mate i have to disagree there, The Verve were a great band and Ashcroft is a superb talent (i think he's one of the best vocalists of all time) but they do not touch Dylan, Dylan is the god of all things music
@ntshgpt92 shut up u goon no album in the nineties came close 2 definitley maybe it defined the music scene in the nineties an gave indie music a whole new direction
@ryanvenny80 Sorry mate but definately maybe was practically written by the real people. Chris griff even has a songwriting credit on rockin chair. along with a few other bits of columbia and supersonic. Oasis just ripped them off completely, just like they do with all their music and the realies threatened court action. The verve were far more unique and live are completely untouchable. The better band by far. A Northern soul is just legendary.
Fuck what these Oasis people say. I was a mad Oasis fan in the day but have despised them since standing on the shoulders.
I have never enjoyed the music of Ashcroft and co. as much as I have now and it hasn't really dated at all. Next tour dates TBA? Missed them at T in the Park a wee while back due to intoxicated circumstances.
@220massimo both are positive rock bands with bad ass music, there's no need to compare anything, it only causes argument and internet keyboard gangsters to emerge from their bunkers
one of the best albums you could have in your collection , sounds crisp 2011 as it did back in the day, oasis in the same catergory, lets all get real and stop judgeing who is the best, MUSIC IS IN OUR EARS LETS ENJOY ! regards Vic 47 on sunday. wavey fingers
The Verve was more of a artsy band compared with Oasis. I've listened to both, although Oasis had more hits, the Verve came up with more creative songs. It's too bad "Bittersweet Symphony" is considered a one hit wonder in the U.S. because ti takes away from the originallity of the rest of the songs on Urban Hymns.
I am sorry guys, don't want to compare them or whatever, just would like to say I was into both in same time (more than 10 yrs ago..) .just one thing which links them is they have good singers who lead through song and colourfull music
@picklerwoof Yea I respect your opinion but I just believe that Lucky man is a more commercial, "single-like" song therefore resulting in it being more succesful
Energy sources without the need for fuel or energy input exist ,But the Oil companies want these technologies unknown to the masses,Check this free energy magnet motor at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,Free yourself!
This song hits me 4 some reason. It makes me think of the times I was in a dark place but never gave up and here I am.... back to the person I always been. Always keep ur head up cuz the flame is always there it never dies out.. the drive 4 life
When i first heard this tune , I was drawn straight into it like a film,and i thought he would release it straight away tells a story, classic, and so addictive to play on guitar, has england got any talent left like they once had man, when you hear richards voice sing and soar on this record, i doubt that the teenagers that lived through the 90's lol me and many others will ever hear anything like this again...but it might happen...lol.lol. i doubt it, richards talent just flows without trying
@stevenlennon1979 "...doubt that the teenagers that lived through the 90's lol me and many others will ever hear anything like this again...but it might happen..." (Sadly it will never happen again. If you want great music, you have to go back in time. Roots is where it's at, not these new seedling bands)
Wanted to put a comment but realized im on my mums account, although im quite liking the fact that i can make it look like mary was rocking to the verve I JUST CANT MAKE IT ALOOONE ha
@Mue7 i like the verve the most, oasis is iight, but the verve couldn't stay together. oasis fault a lot but they got through it, i think that why they are compared all the time
@Mue7 I don't get it too, Ashcrofts lyrics are class Noels lyrics were never his strongest point. Plus Nick Mccabe on guitar just bought something different to the Verve no other band had.
I took the 90's off. Im now now 46 yrs old and these guys rock.The talent has come along ways since the 70's and 80's. I would even go so far as to say the year 2000 to 2010 havent produced this level of talent. And im just a dumb american.
@MissyMicole23 Talent in the 60's and 70's soared, and then in the 90's music got a quick breath of talent once again before plummeting. Now music is just about social images, and what looks cool. As a 16 year old, I can tell you the majority of the music from my generation SUCKS. This here is from a time when music meant something deeper. I'd say music hasn't came a long way from the 60's-90's, and instead it's fallen.
@P47ThunderboltJug Shut up you boring little cunt. You expect good music to fall into your lap from the mainstream well guess what the NEVER happened. There's 1000s of amazing bands out there, Mumford and Sons, Fleet Foxes, I Am Kloot, Arctic Monkeys, Kasabian, Muse,TV on the Radio and countless others like them are making some of the most breathtakingly unique music, and if you want to give the older gens. the middle finger trying listening to deadmau5 (cos dubstep is the new punk) now GTFO
@P47ThunderboltJug perhaps it has fallen in musical substance and i wont deny that earlier generations of music were more badass than many of the stuf out htere today. but if ur willing to generalize ENTIRE bands and genres of music from todays time as bad then i take u as a bit ignorant. i beleive theyr will always be ppl that know good music and that can therefore MAKE good music regardless of time period.
@P47ThunderboltJug It's all a matter of perspective I think. The reason music from past generations seems SO amazingly awesome is because we only remember the amazingly awesome artists. Music in the 70s was just as image-centered and shallow as it is now, music has been a major industry for a looong time. But we don't think of those bands when we think of the 70s, we think of Zeppelin and Floyd. Good music is still out there, I promise you! You just have to find it :)
@P47ThunderboltJug i agree with you up until about 2 to 3 years ago i think music has gotten that breath again we have bands that are getting really popular like Tame Impala and Edward Sharpe, and then some less well known stuff like The growlers and The Soundcarriers that are so incredible. And thats just to name a few. I think it goes up and down like a wave and right now i think were peaking again, look into some of the new psychedelic underground music that is coming up now it really is good
@P47ThunderboltJug I think people want to hear authentic music that they can somehow identify with. This album is a great example of that. There are stacks of bands that fall into this category as well. Maybe not the same caliber as the Verve, but still great music. Dont stop searching brother.
WRONG AGAIN! Mainstream is society's bitch. You and so many others say stupid comments like this because you need to digg deeper, and not just base your opinion off Propaganda's box. I'd say you should try broadening what you know. There are so many underrated artists today that are not being advertised by "Ellen" or "x factor". If anything learn another language, this will open windows to understanding as well.
I am 20 and can easily make a list of talented souls right now.
@P47ThunderboltJug Huh, being a music critic for years I have to both agree and disagree to your statement. I agree when it comes to your personal "flow", but I disagree when it comes to "social images & what looks cool" : It's all about what people relate to more and for many shit like Flo Rida is the real deal and reflects all their desires as for many bands like these do - it's all about the inside of a listener... :D
@MissyMicole23 I heartily agree with you in that this last decade has in no way produced this level of talent. In fact I would go as far to say that this last decade has been utter shit, in terms of producing great music talent.
I saw them in Chicago on the Urban Hymns tour-lucky me-only a few dates. Nick was not there due to "exhaustion" so I was freaking the show wouldn't be the same. Out comes Richard with a Gibson ES 335 and proceeds to blow my head off by playing every part note for note and perfect vocals. Best show ever to this day. My all time favorite album.. They transcend normal human capacity for creating music. Today's Mozart(s)
Before this album came out I only knew of Richard's dedication on Cast No Shadow, and when this album came out and I began to research more into Richard, I thought "wow, he is an amazingly talented artist". He's a hero to me, because he expressed all those emotions and feelings I was going through when I couldn't find the right words, that album and much of their early stuff was the soundtrack to my college years.
The Verves' music is medicine for the mind and soul, brings us back to nature and reminds us that true love is the purpose of this short life and that spirit is eternal so don't worry. :-)
This was me and my wifes song.....ow what a time it was and what love we had together to this song.....its a time that i will never forget and a woman that I will miss. Thank you for this song!

I agree when it comes to your personal "flow", but I disagree when it comes to "social images & what looks cool" : It's all about what people relate to more and for many shit like Flo Rida is the real deal and reflects all their desires as for many bands like these do - it's all about the inside of a listener... :D

@MissyMicole23 I heartily agree with you in that this last decade has in no way produced this level of talent. In fact I would go as far to say that this last decade has been utter shit, in terms of producing great music talent.

I saw them in Chicago on the Urban Hymns tour-lucky me-only a few dates. Nick was not there due to "exhaustion" so I was freaking the show wouldn't be the same. Out comes Richard with a Gibson ES 335 and proceeds to blow my head off by playing every part note for note and perfect vocals. Best show ever to this day. My all time favorite album.. They transcend normal human capacity for creating music. Today's Mozart(s)

Before this album came out I only knew of Richard's dedication on Cast No Shadow, and when this album came out and I began to research more into Richard, I thought "wow, he is an amazingly talented artist". He's a hero to me, because he expressed all those emotions and feelings I was going through when I couldn't find the right words, that album and much of their early stuff was the soundtrack to my college years.

"We have existence and it's all we share" the absolute best line in the song, and one I've quoted many times.

The Verves' music is medicine for the mind and soul, brings us back to nature and reminds us that true love is the purpose of this short life and that spirit is eternal so don't worry. :-)
