Doves - Andalucia

[CK2008able]

Sometimes I get annoyed that Doves haven't become a massive worldwide band, but other times I appreciate being one of the lucky ones to have found and adored all their music!

[Reftgog]

Just goes to show that it doesn't matter if hollywood don't got your back, or if your music don't get played in clubs. This is a genre of its own. Everyone whose been listening to Doves knows this band is a treasure, and exposure will just limit the number of lives the Doves music touches, by becoming just another 'mainstream' band.

[HelloKellen]

woah, a blast from the past!

[oogie11]

 Lovely song...reminds me of Manic Street Preachers :)

[L0veAndSqualor]

Who gives a fuck about what other people listen to? If they are content to eat the popular garbage that's fed to them, let them. People are crazy: they watch Jersey Shore and don't listen to good music. Don't worry your lovely little heads about it. Just be happy you've got Doves.

[hamlanzon6]

@L0veAndSqualor Thank you. You made me feel better.

[lalo6437]

it pisses me off so much that this guys haven't got a wider audience

[hiromimi100]

No just because Doves are not on air all time they still on my mind every time I think of my girlfriend or her family. She is my soulmate and her parents live in Andalucia. I love her and I love the Doves , But her waaaayyyyy More.

[mynorthensoul]

I made an account specially for this song cos the world has to understand that doves are the best band nowadays: Lost Souls, Lost Sides, Last Broadcast, Some Cities, Kingdom Of Rest, Best Off all their albums are pure high class and almost no other band has this hugh spirit in rock as Doves: Andalucía a music style with pure passion from the south of Spain. This is the first rock song ever that contains the same passion spirit

i love doves, u love doves, we love doves, doves loves u

good bye

[halation777]

LOVE this!!

[agnyeshka]

oh my God, this one is just GREAT!!!!

que viva Andalucia!! ;)

[Denise5482]

I like this song very much.It has been my favourite song since ı heard first.It makes me cry a lot.Its singer is really successful.

[Jeberdee1980]

Amazing

[raiderbonbon]

OMG I love DOVES

[yuvasweb]

Try to sing along & you will know how hard it is to pull this song off.

[TheM79blooper]

@yuvasweb jimi pulls it off because he sings really laid back without putting too much into it. plus helps playing the bass too.

[hamlanzon6]

It shows you what a pathetic radio scene there is when a great song like this gets no notice.

[popster02]

@hamlanzon6 Funny you should say that, I have just had the same conversation with my wife. Watching shite like x-factor, how can all these bands keep hold of record deals when all the kids are dumbed down with this total rubbish. Long live Radio 6, but don't forget it came so close to being shut down, what are we going to do, keep the faith, keep supreb stuff like this alive.

[essitie]

Gosh I've forgot how mind-blowing this song is..

I used to push the replay button over and over again when it came out.

Just a-m-a-z-i-n-g

[moscow3times]

Even though they're City fans I'll forgive them for being an amazing band and taking the good fight to shit like JLS!

[twochordcool]

Monaco is that you?

;)

I mean that only in a good way!

Any band that sounds like Monaco, who sounds like New Order, is AWESOME by me!

[twochordcool]

LOVE LOVE LOVE this melody!

[SarcasmRokx]

cmon be in Zombieland 2!!!!!

[psusquall]

epics not the word rob Its Fucking epic lol

[enonimousvegeoo]

hey what anice song its not cool or rocking but its nice i feel gr8 pleasure by listening this song

[twochordcool]

@enonimousvegeoo Wouldn't that make it kinda cool?

[reddevil70]

LOVE DOVES AT SCARBOROUGH !!!!!!!!

[cphaza]

Doves are my favorite band by far, and this song is ace but somehow a little raw, like the pace and direction change at 1.58, very un-doves and kinda rushed? or am i wrong here? Just thinking out loud....

[twochordcool]

@cphaza I read a review of this song (in a review for Best of) and they thought this was just an average so so song - I couldn't disagree more - if songs like this are what we get to look forward to from Doves in the future we're in for some FANTASTIC music.

[vitalogy]

Summer is here...play this on the fucking radio, retard DJs.

[RodneyMullen69]

Amazing tune. I have no other words for it.

[Somebodylost]

Nosebleeds from the epicness, yo.

[allashcroft1]

timeless music...best band england has seen since the verve....

[brylt209]

my summer song, for the winter of australia

[iseabbv]

Doves are one of essential bands - behind all the mass produced, manufactured crap they can produce moments of magic at the drop of a hat. They deserve mass recognition, but I dont think they need it. They are far too good for that

[SaladNinja3569]

Amazing song - just like Andalucia itself! Sevilla and Grenada ftw. Doves = epic :D

[TheHawkdaddy]

I don't think Doves know how to write a song that isnt amazing.

[2threemiles]

I AM ANDALUSIAN

or andalucian

or however you say spell it in english

andaluza!

hell yeah

(though i have an irish surname, welsh second name, and a mother whos from liverpool, so i guess you could say, half british half spanish)

[TheM79blooper]

@2threemiles and probably a bit of irish and welsh lol

[2threemiles]

@TheM79blooper

i tried getting them in by saying british... although yeah, the irish is left out unless we consider "british isles"

[esteroide7]

OLE OLE OLEEEEEEE, viva la madre que os pariooooooooó...

[Littlebluey1]

this is amazing its possibly up there as the doves best song ever!

[hampoctid]

ridiculously underated, does my head in when you see shite rappers and stuff like that getting all the exposure, awesome band!!!

[rjgill24]

check out my version

click my name an seek

ta

[cano818]

It is absurd all topics about spain and andalucia and have not nothing to do on spain on century xxi

[cckrusty]

@cano818 c'mon mate dry your tears ay.

[mooncatprincess]

doves fans its a must 2 get this in2 the charts number 243 wtf is goin on. faaakin pissin me of!!!!aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!!­!!

[krlt92]

Tune

[MrDmd2003]

Doves are just awesome just find it soooo frustrating that they don't seem to get the airplay their music deserves. There are thousands of people who are missing out because they lack the exposure. Doves are just THE best band around. You must see them live just amazing !

[DJFennben]

Is it just me, or is this tune propa Summer-ry :) Has that awesome vibe in it :D

[LETSGETFUCKEDONLUCA]

This tune has given me the biggest erection since the day my GF left me :)

[rowania]

@LETSGETFUCKEDONLUCA

lol, i guess that's why she left you lol

[IamMissHuman]

i wanted to faint .. that's how good this song was !!!!

[Marty441]

The Doves are new to me but when I heard this song last week I knew I was going to be a fan . This is the most fantastic song I've heard in a long time. Amazing stuff.

[morrissey07]

No proper video....No proper physical release of this single...apart from the video they did in front of the satellite, I can't see how this single will chart very high. There simply isn't enough promotion. At least fans are making an effort by putting the song up and making a video for it themselves. Let's go Doves.

[tantilizingtrip1]

This song is magical, Doves are the best original band in the world, I seen them 3 times, last wek I sat 2 metres away from them when they was doing a interview for EVO MUSIC ROOMS,, reaaly lovely guys, and Jimi, your just soo humble!!

[fionaflores]

anyone know why the song is called Andalucia?

[23lFrench]

Their first album lost souls was one of my favourite album off all time, anyone else feel the same. I like the other albums but their was something dark and slightly experimental and different about their first album. But this song reminds me off lost souls somehow its really good.

[morrisseyfan69]

Another amazing song, "Bring me back the hope we found that day, seems far, far away". Jimmy on form again. The North west of England is definately the music capital of the world. The Doves are a gem amongst all the other debris out there, hope they've got many years left. Love them till the day I die.....

[sheffys]

Enjoy this people, it will be many years before you come across it's like again, stunning, thank God for Northerners.........

[ro99ie]

now THIS is a tune.

[rjamesp6]

Yes, when will poeple lern?

[Rich27014]

They can do no wrong - whopper of a tune....

[jonnyespo]

song after song after song... perfection

[starchick145]

This. Is immense. :)

[sosatas]

Another Great Song

[nisioptimum1878]

this is mustard

[gohodohji]

another great band from t' north

[rodster11]

again proving that they are the best band around with great songs and albums time after time this really is an epic instant classic

[ncsudd0]

Thanks for posting this!

[discoeyam]

Awesome tune, classic doves.

[Kerry1207]

Love this!!

[morrissey07]

it's a shame this won't have a proper physical release. i adore the packaging and the time these lads give into their work.

[popster02]

Its a shame, that all these shit acts get praise. Doves are one of the best bands in the world at the moment. This song proves it, they just get better. Roll on the upcoming gigs, pure music, no shit, as it should be. Back catologue is superb!

[jonivison]

@popster02

too right the old albums are like the soundtrack to my life!

got tickets for Liverpool, although they will have a hard job to beat the Gmex performance from December that was the most epic thing I have ever seen!

[shawgav]

Just heard this on the radio. I have no words for how good this song is.

[vitalogy]

I'm suprised you heard it on the radio, they usually reserve space for playing the same shit over and over. Kings of Leon, Band of Skulls, Florence and the Shit.

[mooncatprincess]

classss they jus get beta an beta 5\5\10 wolves me home town cana wait then thetford forest jus wish i cud do eden azwell.. lets fly with the doves.

[mooncatprincess]

Stunning. Going 2 see them in Wolves my home town in May then Thetford Forest in June. Wish Doves all the best, top guys. Feckin awesome!!!!

[mooncatprincess]

[yuvasweb]

Awesome track

[dannyjax]

yes andalucia in spain. from the new best of... album coming out beginin of april.

[Stunl3y]

This is on the new "Best of album"

[dannyjax]

am pretty sure doves av got some sort of deal with sky sports and bbc. they must jave played every doves song for adverts and highlights of games.

[bentandy]

@dannyjax i was thinking the exact same thing!

[dannyjax]

best Doves song so far, Eleven Miles Out is also one of my faves, gotta be doin another manchester gig??

[MrBushytop]

Terrific track

[Nixxy2810]

Class Act :-)

[englishlion21]

This track is stunning. Hands down the most underated band of the last 15 years.

[wonderwall4355]

Fantastic as usual. Kind of expected that though...

[KitCurranRadioShow]

why don't these guys get number one hits with everything they release?! Brilliant/

[tomogh]

@KitCurranRadioShow Because its all shit R&B and Hip Hop ruling the charts :(

[Stunl3y]

Because people today are brainwashed by the conveyor belt of the same old rubbish that's fed to them. Bands like Doves are in short supply or if they are out there they are just not given the airtime to come through, music is in a dire mess at the moment imo.

[popster02]

Too right, all that x factor shite total bollocks. You are almost told what you can like, its disposable music, still amazed by Doves Lost Souls, never get sick of it. Doves are so pure, no sales shit, just music to loose yourself in. So in to Doves, live they are in a league of their own. Keep fighting the fight. Lets forget all this Radio 1 shit and keep Radio 6 going forever, and Radio 2, love Popmaster!!!

[morrisseyfan69]

True, I've seen the Doves a few times and they are one of the best performers I've seen & most innovative bands around. There's a depth to their music that only a handful of bands have and are completely wasted on the drones out there. Can't wait to see them in Hull, hopefully they'll play seasong!!!

[redwest01]

@Stunl3y I couldn't agree more. It's so good they've kept a loyal fanbase for the last 10 years.

[sammyboi55]

@Stunl3y too true

[KoshmarUK]

@Stunl3y You are a true visionary and an aficionado of real music, my friend. This is the reason why music is in the fucked-up state it is in, on the back of globalisation - read in no particular order: X Factor/ Robbie Williams/ LadyGaGa/ Cowell/ Walsh/ Cheryl Tweedy/ modern RnB. Live music is the only true benchmark of a talent - if you can't hack it in a gig, you're worse than shit, right Girls Aloud, Kylie???

[twochordcool]

@Stunl3y They're fantastic - LOVE bands like them and Elbow - do you know of any similar underrated undergroundish bands like them that I may not have heard of?

[screwgz]

I can't get enough of this godblessed band. Magnificent musical landscape. Geniuses!

[MrStutaylor]

Another classic from the most underrated band on the planet, Keep it like that and keep out of that sound and visually impaired M.E.N arena.

[HattyMarris]

Fantastic Song, first heard it on Steve Lamacq's Round Table on 6 Music and i've been looking for it ever since, so thank you for the upload

[RafasRapidReds]

sky sports ended coverage of a match about 2 weeks ago with a song that sound like Doves, the lyrics were something like "let the river pull you down, deeper underground" anyone know this song? much appreciated!

[Comster75]

It's Called Blue Water and it's the 1st track on disc 2 of the above album....

[RafasRapidReds]

@Comster75 thanks for the reply!

[PizzaMan5882]

Yeah thats blue water no doubt about it :P

[bentandy]

ive been waiting for someone to upload this haha

[robmad84]

@bentandy lol - it needed to be done!

[fletchdies]

Thanks a lot for this upload!

[robmad84]

@fletchdies Welcome! Its a damn good tune ;)

[uncleofruth]

cool
