I remember going to see mr, NIK at manchester appollo, he opened with this using an old cadburys roses ad on huge screen b4 he appeared, it was amazing and of course the sound was perfect
the concert opens with the song on the 84 tour video from the hammersmith odean too just that makes hair stand up, cant imagine being there at the time, shame i was ten and couldnt go. though i saw him in 99 and will be in 3 weeks too.
You know, a top brand sound system for an audiophile, like Bang undt Olufsen, or Plinius, something like that. It makes the recording sound as if the musicians are playing for you in the same room.
@MrFrinkham Totally understand. The whole album is so well recorded, like (as you said) sounds like you're in the room with them! But you need good amp. to hear it:)
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I've been looking for this song for decades. I remember playing a dog-eared cassette of this on a tape deck for my computer that was a fire hazard until the tape snapped (I superglued the tape back together but this song, alas, was lost)
I love this song! I've been looking for this for years! I beg you, can you send me it? Sorry for my English, but I'm not good at it... my mail : Fleur4 @ gmail . com

Did Nik take the sentence "everyting is coming up roses" from the song "everything is coming up roses by BLACK?

@11Rebell11 i think it is likely just from the well known saying 'everything is coming up smelling of roses'

Play this on an audiophile's sound system and you'll be flabbergasted at how amazing it sounds. My jaw was on the floor.

Wow this is lyrically ahead of its time. Muvh like earlier tunes by Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder, this wars against climate change and pollution.
