it sort of points the way Blur were to take, it's so different to the rest of Leisure, it almost would feel more at home on the Blur (1997) album or 13 even, like dreamy and yet heavy
Listening on a cool, windy and quite gray day of Summer; just had an atmospheric experience to remember. That final note felt like it pierced my soul. This song is simply amazing.
Blur have already taken the spot for one of my favourite songs of all time with Coffee & TV - didn't think I'd have another experience like that...
I love this song to death, it's pure perfection but I prefer the other version, the Seymour version. it sounds more mysterious and Damons' voice makes me shiver. This version is a little bit slow, good but not as good as the first version. Blur was a very talented group.
plz help me i looking cover this song by Black Canary when you find plz send me a link or file o n email Adress victim88@wp.pl thank you very much and god bless you and your family .
My children know exactly what this retarded girl just found out. There are rules, and they can say "rules are meant to be broken," but when I find out about it, I'll break them.
Long time listening to this tremendous song...Blur at its best, deep words, hard bass guitar, breath taking guitars and drumms and... the voice of Damon.
i feel like crap.. i just want to run and never stop.. i wanna scream and hopefully someone hears me and confort me. but i know thats not going to happen., thats why i come listen to this track so i can feel somehow good about my misery..... hoping for better days......
eh trainspotting has two really distinct definitions... one is a person who watches trains day in and day out, keeping journals of their coming and going....
the other... an annoying cunt that leans over the dj barrier to see what tracks you're playing.
Love the entire song, but especially love 4:31 when it's just the underlying beat & bass, & then 4:43 when the guitars pitch back in -beautiful!! love it so much & the Trainspotting movie!
Ah, if only Beetlebum was recorded a year earlier. Would've made for another great addition to the soundtrack. That song was just made for Trainspotting.
@robo3007 commercialism happened, people today seem to judge a song based on the physical attractiveness of the artist and the budget of the music video. however most modern music is garbage.
@robo3007 Hey I love Blur, I'm here bocouse of that, but wtf happen with people! Do you think you're "So cool" disrespecting a band like My Chemical romance? they are two opposites styles, but both are greatest bands.
Sorry if I've offended you, but don't you think enough people have been complaining about Justin Beiber, huh? If he happened to have a song called Sing that's more popular than this I might have happened to give it a mention, but I could never see the appeal of talking about some random pop artist nonsense on completely unrelated rock videos myself.
@sillyhUron I shouldn't do anything, I am not required to respect your TASTES, just your right to enjoy whatever you want. (and I do, but that doesn't mean that I can't disagree and state my own opinion.) You started the topic anyway by disagreeing with robo3007 and saying, "My Chemical Romance's song is not bad..."
If you can post disagreeable comments, then I don't see why it's so difficult for you to receive them.
@sillyhUron No it's alright, I'm sorry if you felt like it was an attack. I was just expressing a heated opinion, so it probably came off as a bit ranty.
@sillyhUron well I said I was sorry for being a douche bag are you asking for a second apology?? I'm just one of those people who sneer a people listening to Taylor Swift, Blake Shelton, Miley Cyrus and MCR. Is that such a crime???
I just can't stop thinking about Renton running down the street as fast as he can chased by the cops when I listen to this song. Great song for the greatest movie
Long live the greatness of Blur and their beautiful, intrepid adventures into the sounds of the human soul.... and if you've found this to be true then you've got no distance left to run! Welcome.
According to the comment "dharmadude222" posted, I am tone deaf. No, it's the fact that half of the music in my music library [~ 716 songs] is much more beautiful than this song.
@iluvwatermelons That's my plan! I will have this played at my funeral. Multiple times...depending how long the service lasts :) With a few other songs for variety.
This will bother me until the day I die: why weren't more songs made like this? (Not only from Blur, but just during the 90s in general.) Why did Blur have to change from making this kind of music?
@dvdkrz Thats what happens when you have a band who cant find commercial success in the U.S. and they're music is pushed by a mind like Damons... you end up with another sound like the one created on 13 and Think Tank... which eventually morphed into what we hear in the Gorillaz. Soooo, could be worse (Metallica?).
I'm so glad I got the UK version of the album for this song. This songs beats "I Know" from the US version by a long shot. I can say that, I'm American. :)
I'm perversly happy that blur never got big in America.Because I was able to see them in venues that were'nt humongous.I got to see one of my favorite bands upclose three times. Wonderful!!
24 people have no soul.... seriously, how can anyone dislike this??????? anyway, i admittedly got into this song due to Trainspotting... Blur just wasn't played enuff over here in the states. I was lucky i knew a few measly singles by this point in '97 (of course, now i know many many more!). I had a crush on this song that summer... i'd listen to it over & over late at night... oh, kinda like i'm doing now :-P
