Guy, this song was always about you and me. Because times always got too hard and you would leave and I would think about you with that big old head, sitting in the room with a crack in the roof and the water running down your face. And I could do nothing but love and forgive you because I understood that if you had to take all the hurt and the guilt and the memories you would never get from your bed. I don't want to stop waking in the morning staring at the walls. I don't want to get over you.
'i've been loking through some of them old pictures', me too mate, unfortunatately, they do jog my memories. every line a gem, every line the pain of relationship, this band is wonderful, special, heart rending....(add your own adjectives)....i love them...
Nothing more than a packet of Marlborough lights in your back pocket and the world is your oyster... Fantastic song with an amazing combination of grit and hope.
very interesting version...notice the trumpet during the orchestra solo. Also, Carla's singing sounds a bit more melodic and subdued that the album version.
interesting but inappropiate use of clicheMr Pozzoz.Good advice from someone sat "youtubing" on a Sat in the middle of summer.Oh and it's not about a woman being humiliated, it's about a man that can't cope.Sound familiar???
Not in the slightest, you misrunderstand me completely, as I think you have also misunderstood this song completely.But the world is open to interpretation Ii suppose....
when i was a younger lad smoking weed i used to listen to tindersticks and gouch out, now i am more older and wiser i smoke better weed but still listen to the wonderfull tindersticks
The singer is Carla Torgerson (sp?) from The Walkabouts. There is a live version available to download but it is not in the same league as this. My favourite song ever.

best duet ever - seen them loads of times but I have never heard this song live - who is she? Have they ever done it live?
THis and Mazzy Star's - Fade into you - could be on an endless hippy/happy/sad loop.
