i used to listen to this song growing up and i gotta say, im glad i started listening to the beautiful south again, one of the greatest bands i ever listened to growing up :D
there 's a profound difference between the two. but i know what you mean. alcohol is romanticised , mcat is almost something you are, or should nt be .... interesting debate but ... lets not argue and share our romance/and our beers. have you got a cheeky one, by the way. different shoes, same feet
@MultiMudster I know what ya mean, used many drugs, most illegal, but seen (and been one) far more casualties from this most socially acceptable of all drugs. Sorry, no cheeky one to share. Alcohol can also, too easily, become something you are and defo shouldn't be ;-) Peace bro, my love affair with the "white man's poison" is well n truly over.
Carry On Up The Charts-the album by The Beautiful South is a masterpiece and massively underated! It was number one for ages. And this tune is legendary!
This song reminds me of me man. that is exactly what my doc said to me, I didn't listen. Lo & behold, 3 weeks later I was in hospital being resussitated. The moral- listen to those who know best & not your own head.
I used to play football with paul heaton and norman cook (fatboyslim) in ull, my one claim to fame lol, norman was a good laugh paul had a strange way about him but was still a nice guy.
i put this vid on because im 16 usin my dads youtube account and absolutly love old music. i also think that some modern music is shit and teenagers and kids need to realise that there is good music out there.
i ABSOLUTLY LOVE BEAUTIFUL SOUTH!! ALL THE OLD-ISH PEOPL I KNOW THINK IT STRANGE BECOZ IM ONLY 11 AND THERE A RATHER OLDISH BAND BUT WHO CARES?? I CERTENLY DONT!! :)
I'm just a twinkle in my daddy's eye and like a pre-2000's band that is now generally accepted as being good: respect me!
