Such a depressive song, but absolutelly truthfull (that's what makes it so beautyful). It's said, that love is like a bullet... It gets you in the eye, wounds your heart, turns you inside out, then flies away leaving you dying...
Neil is a lyrical genius. If anyone wanted to know how to write a song about being shat on from a great height then they should look no further than this song. The language is exceptional, no cheap lyrics written in 5 mins full of cliches. Love you Neil xx
This is the song lyrics that the writer could not write out if he has not experienced it. Neil is one of the greatest lyrics in the music industry IMHO.
Love is sometimes a real catastrophe , maybe more than that , a real true and sad feeling that keep killing you inside , I wish that no one feels that ever , and that love always be happy and beautifull
Love can be sad in a pathetic way. Its a beautiful song and performed beautifully too. Its really moving. Neils voice has always been one of my favourites, its unique. That drunk from the Pogues once called them '2 queens with a drum machine'.
Well they have been writing great music for about 25 years now, where as no one really cares where the tramp with the bad teeth is.
i adore this so much. neil's lyrics have been so intellectually biting (or bitchy) so long, it's easy to forget how keenly he cuts just being candid. the song's so intimate tho, i prefer it strictly between a voice/music & listener. a pro's performance, this, at any rate.
So sweet and painful at once.

First time I heard this song, I was thinking 'what a strange song, why did they release this?'.....
....but after few days I said to myself 'ONE OF THEIR MOST BEAUTIFUL SONG'

yes, i almost listen to it every night and it is very autobiographical

aww!
Neil looks like he's still feeling the pain when he sings it! :(
songs do usually make you feel like that when you put your own personal experiences into them.
it's so brave of him though that he's not crying!

The live version of this song sounds always fantastic. Proves the Boys are not only pop stars but also great musicians.

you have to feel really bad at some point in your life for this song to make real sense.
Unfortunately i know how true this song is.
