[APH1991]

Brings me back to 1997 when I was 5 going on 6.

Almost 15 bloody years ago.

[johndonato44]

Crete 1991 memories memories

[2fast4umatey]

Bonkers 90's tune! The memories come flooding back!

[veda1954]

Brings back memories of when I met my partner in Gran Canaria 1991. Unlike bigdad1968 below, we're no longer together but I have two great step-daughters following that relationship.

[bigdad1968]

brings Back memories of when i first met my wife. And still just as happy after twenty years together and three great kids xxx

[silverwishthelock1]

[rorydog02]

@jezzyby47 well said

[mmcrytb]

i def prefer this video , but prefer the updated production version of the song

[bjdplumbing]

This is what we people who called  Le Rox (in Adelaide South Australia) home in the early nineties affectionately as the "FUCK OFF" song..... I t was the last song played every Saturday night for at least 3 months by Paul Fairburn.. Signature Track!!!

[scarface91227]

gona leave all alone.................cast youre eyes like summer skys

[76minervaj]

love this old tune, takes me back to my teenage years with my friends, great song zoe!!!! wish there was music like this in 2011

[TheDjSweets]

So many memories. I get a shiver listening to this. Apart from looking f-ing good she could actually sing. What happen to her?

[soundseeker63]

@TheDjSweets She's still about. She does more traditional folky sounding music under the name Zoe Young. I think some of her newer stuff is available on iTunes.

[MickeyFKNMouse]

@soundseeker63 She is now in a band called Mama with Sarah McQuaid in Penzance

[TheDjSweets]

@soundseeker63 This is one of the reasons I love the tube. Pure loving on the music side of things and pure gutless racism on most of the other comments and replies on other issues.  Big thanks soundseeker63. I will check her out asap!

[jjjonse]

Not the one I was looking for, but nice and love her voice.

[wilkes397]

@jezzyby47

Thanks for uploading this song,this is on of my last evenings at home before I go to Afghan,this is the first song I learnt to sing so myself and my Mom have had a right sing song to it! Thanks again!!!

[spilgo]

@wilkes397

stay safe out there!

and great tune!

[sclifford74]

Reminds me of walking to College at 17! (They were the days!!)

[johndonato44]

my anthem of the early 90's working in crete  good time and great friends

[MrSteelydan79]

What a flipping BRILLIANT uplifting tune. Britain's answer to all the rioting 12 year olds out there spreading misery. Ave this!

[picklesabba]

love it

[mmcytb]

she reminds me of angie bowlen from desperate housewives

[justinstocks10]

this was always the last tune played at the ku in huddersfield back in the day - love it !

[maxbuzz7]

Reminds me of early morning sunrises after a warehouse party....BEAUTIFUL !!!

[heinzturbo]

This is a very great song, but not the original Video.

[Stralok1]

@heinzturbo Yeah...this is early stuff. This is pre-Youth remixing. In fairness, he just pumped up the bass an drums a bit...the vocals are still absolutely nails!! :-) Love this song!!! :-)

[jezzyby47]

@heinzturbo - Its the earliest version of this song i've seen anyway, if you have an earlier video, upload it, i'd like to see it.

Ther version AFTER this one is the one that charted. Cut and paste the following into the top bar AFTER the forward slash.

[BigAndTall666]

I bought the album back in the day when it was new, it still sounds "new and fresh" that´s how good she is! :-)

[insanityrulestheday]

If only everyday could have this good FEEL factor :-)

[herbaliser555]

Blimey! She was gorgeous.

[mattysowls]

id give her one

[BruvaBob]

ibiza baleric classic

[1960MikeT]

I got it at my bid price, so sorry if you'd have gone higher, but I guess you have to play to win, It doesn't matter if she didn't play it much ... in fact it may be better for it. It's gone to a very good home.

[1960MikeT]

I've just bought her banjo off eBay - but does anyone know a track where it is used?

[Craigfromsunderland]

@1960MikeT Don't know mate. But you win the prize for the most unexpected comment! LOL!

[weesheet]

Great tune reminds me of the days when I were a lad necking mushies and running around hills with me mates care free.

The beats for many songs of this era were robbed from somewhere else it was fair game. The guy that produced this record, Youth also co-wrote Little Fluffy Clouds with Dr Alex Patterson of The Orb plus assorted other tracks from Ultraworld.

He is now a big name in many different music types Dub and Psy trance to name a couple. Apparently he's a druid or something as well.

[ThePollofer]

good amazing

[ladynyx1]

I love this track makes me feel good :D

[Mynxabel]

great feel good song always loved this one whatever happened to Zoe though?

[jezzyby47]

@Mynxabel - /watch?v=tPOXhIlAy4g

In the top bar, copy and paste the above link AFTER the youtube dot com bit.

This is the version that got in the charts, the original version didn't.

Zoe has got an acoustic version of this song on YT somewhere from a few years ago. She is still writing songs, but with a folky type sound.

[KavKavanagh]

@jezzyby47 Zoe's guitar that she is proported to have used to write this song is on ebay for sale as we speak :)

[jezzyby47]

@KavKavanagh - Thanks for letting me know this - nice pics of Zoe with her guitars. The link on the Ebay ad to my other version of this song is there too (the version that charted and that everyone remembers).

[polincoly1]

@jezzyby47 i am curious of those pictures of Zoë and the guitar. Have the link for viewing?

[jezzyby47]

@polincoly1 - No it was on Ebay about 6 months ago now, i didn't save the pics.

[roboman34]

@Mynxabel Zoë re-recorded the song in 2008 with her folk band Mama. This version is available on their debut cd, Crow Coyote Buffalo. Writer(s) Martin Glover, Zoë Pollock 

[brightonking69]

I always play this song once on the first day of Spring ! :-) Like today for example

[DABthe1]

@brightonking69 What a coincidence! The first time i heard this song was september 21st (the first day of spring in south hemisphere). On that day we celebrate the Student's day, go to some forest with a DJ and a lot of buzz and dance and drink till lose consciousness. That's the begginning of the day, than there's another dance in the town's center, where we dance and drink till lose consciousness, and then the Spring Dance at Night, where we dance and drink till lose consciousness.

[soundseeker63]

This beat is borrowed from Lisa Stansfield - Affection. The drum loop is exactly the same. Good loop though, and good mix of this song. Kinda more danceable than the later version.

[timnfee]

@soundseeker63 Well done DJ Einstein. But this is much better than Lisa Twatsfield.

[martybhoy72]

Never seen this version of the song before. Good version though.

[1888sss]

my song to my now hubby,, coz youre eyes like summer sky bluer than the ocean clearer than the skys n he passed those eyes on to our daughter.

[polnatista2410]

It's raining here, no sunshine cept here :)

[TheHandsomeCrab]

Tranny

[MrXenophobe]

WOW this is one GREAT song I've always remembered from the 90's for it's infectious feel good vibe.

[johndavidclulow]

[goboats]
