River City People - Walking on Ice

[Lostchord1000]

I saw this band in Manchester, back in 1990, on the same bill as Hall & Oates and Fleetwood Mac. They were all brilliant...a great night!

[vockla]

Yo también conocí el tema en Horizonte... y con el nombre de la banda lo busqué incansablemente en todas las disquerías de Bs As hasta que finalmente lo encontré. Cuando lo encontré realmente no lo podía creer porque no lo tenían en ningún lado. Es uno de los CDs que más atesoro porque el álbum completo es una joya.

[Duncan038]

I loved this band , and Siobahn mayer is one of the most gorgeous women Ive ever seen , simply stunning she was , and im sure still is.

[angelaisdead]

buenisima cancion exelente. lastima qe no la pegaron con otras . la hubieran descocido.

[lovecrusaderuk]

River City People were one of my favourite bands - absolutely loved them. This track is one of my favourites - so sad they didn't hit the big time but made 2 crackin' albums. Met the group in Bradford at HMV where they were playing a few tracks live - really lovely people, they gave me a ticket for their gig that night supporting OMD. Fantastic. Hope they're all doing well x

[Jawilluk]

Great band but I think the were overshadowed by a very similar band - Texas. River City people were the better band though.

Al fin lo encontre a este tema tantos años buscandolo,gracias por subir el video....I love it!

[gusneaker]

@villero666 ... y... eso pasa por no darle bola al o a la que anuncia los temas!! En la Horizonte nos castigaban lindo con este temazo!!

Saludos, y contento de encontrar compatriotas que gusten la misma música!!

[94babito]

@gusneaker Tengo este CD y original, una de mis joyas !!! lo conoci en Horizonte tambien.. :)

[gusneaker]

@94babito no quiero sonar demasiado a viejo ch*t* pero... cuántos temas clásicos quedaron desde mediados de los 90s hasta ahora????

Es más... ¿cuántos clásicos de los que la misma Horizonte promovía como "clásicos del futuro" tuvieron un futuro???

Ahhhhh... qué suerte haber vivido esa época, no? (por lo menos en la parte musical!)

Saludos

[94babito]

@gusneaker Si amigo,aunque te digo que de los 90 quedaron varios! este es del 88 del primer disco de ellos que se llamo "Say something Good" muy buena banda,lastima que el estilo que hacian ellos fue muy inflavalorado.Horizonte es demasiada cultura para los tiempos que corren capo! ese fue un tiempo que dudo muy seriamente que retorne a la Argentina.

Thank you so much for posting the lyrics!

The second line of the refrain drove me crazy (sunbathing on the railway)...

[vockla]

The lyrics I've just copied are from the album version (I have the CD). The song in the video has a couple sentences removed (the first verse) but it does not change much.

[rotj26]

[ezonico11]

This is a great song. I appreciate your music and the vocals are just awesome! I was very fortunate to hear your music when I needed support and enjoy great music...Thank-you! kearny NJ USA

[jgrd1971]

I would like to read the lyrics too. I'm not hungarian (my grandfather was) but I live in Uruguay and many lines are hard to understand, and I couldn't find the lyrics in the web. Thanks a lot.

[vockla]

Right from the CD brochure: You say he's leaving, I say he's unsure. The heart you left behind is bleeding and he can't feel no more. He says he loves you, but you can't see it's true. One day you'll wake up, no-one to make you face the truth. I've been walking on ice, sunbathing on the railway. Some day, some night somebody's gonna find me... (continues)

[vockla]

...You say I'm dreaming but I feel wide awake. And he's convinced you don't believe him. Don't people make the strangest of mistakes? He says he loves you, can't you see it's true. I've been walking on ice, sunbathing on the railway. Some day, some night somebody's gonna find me... (continues)

[vockla]

...You say he's unfaithful but I was with him every second. It's clear to me it's you he cares for. You're always first, to no-one second. He says he loves you, can't you see it's true? One day you'll wake up, no-one... no-one to make you face the truth. No! I've been walking on ice, sunbathing on the railway. Some day, some night somebody's gonna find me.

[wildcat4live]

wow never herd of these and i like it wooo

[Lenfer]

Would any of the native English listeners be so kind as to share the lyrics of this song in a comment? Some of the lines are hard to understand for a Hungarian for example..:)

[AlfHukker]

Thanks for posting both versions of this truly wonderful RCP track. Their debut album could never have been surpassed.

[bratattack5]

Listening gold!!!! And the album is up there as one of the best. Shame they only did 2 albums but this is one of their greatest songs. l only bought the album for California Dreaming.

[steveg66]

So glad this songs up. Thanx! Still got the vinyl extended mix.

[mothwillowfly]

[hertdeedle]

Pixies pixies pixies production. not pixies material but pixies production.

[Hiolymagica]

If my memory serves me right,the band played this song on the James Whale Radio show on ITV,it was becoz of that I went out and got ''Say Something Good''

[Hiolymagica]

Great to see this amazing band's work on YouTube,I will never forget the gig they played at the Edinburgh Venue,amazing band,sadly missed by myself.

[JupiterFerris]

I'm confused.

[gorgoblin]

A vivid reminder of the "soundtrack" to meeting my wife in 1992 , many good things come from Da Pool !
