can someone tell me why the comment about Ireland sinking is the top one ,,and another thing while am here listening to the most underrated band ever ,is what the fuck is good on the Orkney ? lol
Couldn't sleep the other night, turned on the radio, and heard this track on Alex Lester's show, on Radio 2. Haunting, and Excellent! Thank you Glasvegas. Merry Christmas to you all!
glassy wango. this song made me pick up a prostatute on gta and shag her. then i took her down to the sea and killed her with a shotgun. just a class song. inspiring. oi boys. keep up the shaggin
Hadn't heard this song before but it's really good, just got to love this band, I guess it helps having a family from Glasgow but I just can't get enough of the Glasgwegian accent, more bands should sing like this
:O I had no IDEA this was a "christmas" song, but I heard it once when I borrowed my friends ipod and I wanted to cry.....lol now I sound like a sissy lala but its ok :P
I sat and listened to this, alone, last year, in the St. Vincent Street EasyInternet cafe, no longer there now. I said goodbye to my loneliness once and for all and went home to my love.
@Kluttzman16 I hope you are still doing well. I removed my comment because we played this song at my little sisters husbands funeral. He was an alcoholic and died at 26 leaving behind 2 little boys and more people then he could have imagined that truly loved him and miss him everyday. it has been a little over a year now but I know I still cry and I am not alone like i said more people loved him then he knew. i am sure the same applies to you, if you know it or not. good luck.
Last time I was at an funeral they played "9 billion bicycles" by Katie Melua. It was very sacry, sad and extremely beautyful at the same time in big church with all the crying people. I have always loved the song, but i dont like to listen to it anymore, because it reminds me of that day. I assume you feel like that about this song? But anyways, im sorry to hear about your friend.
To me it's about this cool guy i know Ewan that i fell in love with but couldn't be with, we had so much in common that it made me feel as though i wasn't alone in my thoughts + feelings about the world around me. His presence in my life even if only for a short while felt like a kiss... if only... sob sob
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
well aint this a pile of pish. seriously is it just me that sees them as a 2 song band, fair enough daddys gone n geraldine are in my list of best songs but OMG. the album is so pish, stabbed was the worst thing ive ever heard, it used to be a song now its not. I would like them to sing a song that I dont want to fukin hang myself to......depressing as fuk.
they are definetly not the best band in scotland as the dont evn come close to the view.
Two words: Sheer. Genius. Encapsulates the poignancy of Christmas from an alternaive viewpoint ie. not all sleigh bells and mistletoe and wine. Could be Generation Y's "Fairytale of New York" in years to come with enough exposure. Spread the word people.
just amazing! a song thats heartbreakingly sad yet amazingly happy perfect for christmas shame it wont be recognised and well have to watch x factor becoe number 1 again. bore. viva glasvegas
An amazing track, trancends it's genre and probably it's era. It's a real shame that this will probably be labelled as 'just' a christmas song, proof once again that Glasvegas are the band to beat...... Any one fancy taking up the challenge?
A great christmas song that really makes me feel warm inside, without drinking glogg (the typical swedish christmas drink, actually just regular heated red wine with some spices) love glasvegas just a pity i didnt see them the one time they were in sweden and performed for fucking newspaper critics :(
Never liked these guys from the start all ways thot they was over rated..how ever,this song has changed my mines. cant stop listening to it great 5 stars
perfect christmas song. fuck the comercial shite!
