I need his albums XD I've just listened to every one of his songs available on youtube and they're all awesome - Go Alex Lloyd; I'll definitely keep listening!
Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i finally found this song!!! today is a good day. ive wanted this song for ages, but had no idea who the singer or title of the song was. Arrangement is beautiful. Choice song. Alex Lloyd - im a new fan.
I remember playing this song on a car trip with fellow band members on the way to a gig. The singer of the band ( who was definitely not into this type of music ) mentioned that she thought it was a very good piece of song writing. I think that really sums up this song and the video clip, definitely Alex's finest work.
If You like this song of Alex Lloyd, I have just up loaded a very old song of Alex Lloyd from1996, From Alex Lloyd's old band called: "Mother Hubbard"
First, this is definitely one of Alex Lloyd's best songs, the video is perfect for it.
I spent a year in Australia (I'm from the states) and this album was released right around that time.
If he had a US release with good marketing support I think he would have been huge over here, instead not many people seem to know about him on this side of the ocean.
Thats a huge Australian artists have. Not many artist seam to be able to break through into the american market. Even really big Australian artists like Powderfinger and Living End haven't broken through. It's a shame you Americans miss out on such good Australian music :(
its because hes not "cool" like all the other shit that gets played on the radio. so all the tools who listen to popular music have probably never heard of him
Heard this on a flight to Oz and LOVED it.. went to buy it there and you basically have to mortgage your house to buy a CD there. So, rather than the $32 it was to buy a poxy little disc, I bought it on ebay for $6.
me and my missus, hate eachothers guts, but when we listen to this together or apart, we fall in love all over again. Fuck im gunna puke, but its the truth
Great song, Alex should be bigger then he is, Australian radio stations don't support good aussie singer's like Alex. Rather supporting US singers with big record deals. We need to support our own Australian music more.
Beautiful. My favourite Alex Lloyd song ever -, damn the man stole the words from me! Absolutely gorgeous and a great understated yet brilliant video to accompany.
It probably means so much to you, because like most people you've been in that situation. I could easily apply this to one of my students, as I really like her but she is married which prevents me from asking her out ... therefore I think about her and this song a lot recently.
its simple and if you bother thinking about it and watching it properly it has a point
it shows how music affects people differently and how it affects our interactions and emotions
not hard to get really
its better than most australian film clips where everything is so lower-middle suburban indie- although there were like 3 people in this one who were like that
I thoroughly agree with you exes. As far as I'm concerned it's about a guy who comes up with a great song for a this class he takes at night (maybe through TAFE) and thoroughly impresses everyone with it, very plausible I think. Simple plot, nothing wrong with that.
Fabulous song; not the poster's fault that the video leaves something to be desired - it's the official version off Alex's video; can't legally be tampered with. Thanks for posting.
I worked on this clip - the idea was that it was a night class and by day it was a general high school maths classroom. If you look closely you'll see the math is aon a second board behind the music class stuff. :)
Don't pay any attention to critics of this clip. It's perfect as is. What do they want, special effects? Guy wins girl? Better to leave it to the imagination.
well, I was quite close to Allex Lloyd one in New Zealand, and I had no idea of who he was either. Now is one of my faves, he is a real singer, real talent. And most importantly, he is a real HUMAN< not a plastic fake.
there are a few takes on what this song is about. some think it's about pot. others take the romantic approach and think its about a friend in love with anotherfriend so wholeheartedly that they have to have it all or nothing. either way, it's been one of my favourite songs for years now...
before reading these comments, I just assumed it was about a change to a vegan diet, but this is my very first experience with this alex lloyd fellow. That is just how the song "spoke" to me. made perfect sense in my head. not going to analyze it here. in any case, it was a good song, well composed, lyrics well written. i enjoyed the energies and emotions behind it. shall be interesting to see what else he has to offer.
i met alex a couple of days ago, and a few days before that. i didn't know who he was at the time but i ended up playing tennis with him haha! i really like his music.
god this is a beautiful song! A lot of Aussie songs around the 2000 time period are undiscovered gems :]
And I can tell you from first hand experience, Alex Lloyd in a small room with just a mic and an acoustic guitar is a mind blowing experience. he would've been a sic busker :]
Oh, and good to see Dave Lawson in one of his many videos clips too!
Awesome clip. Love the way everyone in the room is moved, but in very different ways. Good to see a clip made on basically zero budget that works so well. Bonus points for the very Aussie intro.
This an absolutely fantastic track written by an underated musical legend. i can't believe he has not had more commercial success in the UK, but in a way i like that..it remains one of my musical secrets.
I think this guy is a songwriting genius. Isn't it everyman's dream to have a girl swooning like that to a song wot he wrote? What he is saying is that being a friend is not enough, he needs more.
