  • And I love Chris Difford too. His lyrics are mostly wry with down to earth observations about everyday life. His underpinning voice is what gives Squeeze that sound.

  • Glenn Tilbrook is also an amazing, if underrated, lead guitarist. Been listening to the Cool for cats album again, & some of his stuff is right up there with the best.

  • ¡Qué lindos recuerdos de 1983, cuando llegó esa canción aquí a Lima, Perú!!!

  • I was there just a couple of rows in front of Glenn. Imagine my dismay when my camera gave up the ghost after one pic and a 5 second video! Gutted is not the word.

  • They are so great :) saw them in nashville 9/3/08...awesome show...glad I went

  • Sound soooooooo good here. Wow.

  • Tilbrook is on par with Ray Davis.

  • one of squeeze best single!!!!!!!

  • Sounds like they rocked the house.

  • To see those guys back together after so long apart was simply awesome. A genuine privelidge to be there. Long live the revival!

  • Glenn Tilbrook is one of the best songwriters, ever.

    I spent one winter (83) glued to my headphones, listening to every nook and cranny of just about every Squeeze song I could get my hands on.

    The great musicians meant so much to me growing up, made such a huge difference in my life, and they help us articulate the frustration we feel with our government, our lives, and move us to change, make the world a better place, even if they do so inadvertently.

    So you know, thank you.

  • Should have done a little editing there, sorry.

  • Would'nt we have to say Difford and Tilbrook?

  • Yes, but I suppose as a kid, I always focused on Tilbrook, or his musicality made a stronger impression on me, more so than Difford's lyrics, which I found cumbersome, and thick, pretentious, at times.

    I think it had more to do with a certain joy I heard in Tilbrook's musical expression.

    But I do like Difford, too, this was my opinion as a young girl.

  • I thought you meant just as a songwriter, not a performer.A seducer, if you will. His sincere, soulful, melodious, witty,rocking style is all his own. That's for sure. I learned almost all the tunes on the Singles record for a band I used to be in. More people were listening to that when I was in high school than Sgt. Pepper. Musicians included. That CD must be mega platinum or something by now.

  • I ama big Squeeze fan, but also could never understand why Difford's lyrics were so highly rated.

  • THANKS!

  • This is my favourite Queeze record, they played in Guilford a couple of weeks back, unfortunately I was in Spain.

  • What a gig, I was at the front, right in front of Chris, along with my girlfriend who is also a big fan and that was her first ever Squeeze gig! It's been too long roll on November at Hammersmith. Highlight was Slap & Tickle, rock on!

  • I was at this gig in front of Glenn - this was the highlight for me along with "This Summer"...

    Let's hope that this is the start of a more permamanent SQUEEZE !

  • Fantastic Gig! Super songs, super performance! Thanks for posting! Did anyone video 'Walk Away' - the highlight of the gig for me - absolutely brilliant!!!!! Thanks to Glenn, Chris, Simon, Stephen and John for a great evening! Cheers then.....!

  • Thanks for posting this video. It does my heart good to see it!

  • I love it! I can't wait until August when they come to the US.

  • It's wonderful to see them back. Summers just haven't been the same without them. What talent. Long live Squeeze

  • Great gig, thoroughly enjoyed it. I was in third row in front of Chris. Thanks for the post. Aidan
