  • "hard times, hole in my heart, who stole the sun and

    left me alone again

    give me a guiding light, a stretch of sky and a hand on

    my shoulder ... " easy lovely song with truly deep emotions ..

  • Cherry Ghost are splendid...just the ticket.

  • Genius, this whole album was classic. I predict that just like the Smiths, everybody will be loving them 20 years on and 20 years too late. A lesson in the art of songwriting.

  • This video went viral on Sanaa

  • fabulous. his voice is just so emotive

  • good sweet song

  • best band ...fullstop

  • I'm in love with this song♥

  • They asked Springsteen during an interview for his record The Promise "Who are you listening to/liking right now?" He said Cherry Ghost. So, I looked them up this past weekend and am truly impressed. As usual, the Boss got it right. Springsteen fans...pay attention to these guys - they are worth tracking!

  • what chords is he playing there? and what fret is the capo on? just curious, i know its G Am7 without capo, but wanna play it like him

  • @domclarke92 maybe this is a stupid question, but why don't you just move the capo up the neck until it sounds right?

  • @wonderwall4355 its G + Am7 + C with no capo. The addition of a capo changes the chord completely, so i dont know the shape of the chord that one would use if the song was played on capo 5.

  • @domclarke92

    With capo on 5th fret the chord shapes are D + Em7 + G

  • Wow, I've only just heard of these guys & chose this song randomly to see what the fuss was about... and I'm absolutely loving it!!! I keep playing it! I don't usually like British indie music, but these guys have got themselves a new American fan here in the UK. Nice one!

  • Excellent!

  • oh,thanks you tube, now i can see the video of my desirable song.

    it s a simply beautiful n amazing

  • Classic voice, classic groove, classic band. The rest of the world may catch up in 10 years, but until then Cherry Ghost are all ours.

  • highwireman is talking one thing, and one thing only,THE COMPLETE SENSE

  • saw these at V at the weekend - the tent was 4/5 empty, maybe 200 people in there. they were absolutely fucking amazing, just a shame most of the people who went to V would rather ogle at peter-fucking-andre on the main stage. pretty embarrassing really.

  • @highwireman i guess there are to many F*ckwhits out there that don't really like music x these guy's have written some classic x

  • @highwireman That's cuz they "don't go chasin' that greenback dollar"!

  • I love this song and cant wait for their next album hope it is as good as the exceptoinal first :)

  • @MrDave475 Hope you have the new album,much better than the debut in my opinion.

  • no slot at the local record store

  • You could imagine Glen Campbell doing this very catchy and nice song

  • oh my god this song is Beautiful

  • everyone goes through this

  • i love this

  • I found this guy at random, and i'm so glad I did

  • God, do I love CG or what!?

  • I really love this song - what a great lyric and lovely tune,

    but to be honest i'd be strugglin to dislike any of their stuff, the songs are original and inspiring , the band lay great together & the whole thing just works in a very unassuming not pompous but killer way .

  • @luckyhorsecinema Been a fan for years, I'm like you...it's all good to my ears. Saw them supporting The Coral last year in Leeds...Coral very workmanlike...lots of instrument changing etc. but these guys gave a pretty spine-tingling set...even my hard bitten mate turned to me and said, that was good that! :)

  • Well I was only introduced to this band, just recently by my mate...

    But I tell ya... I love em probably more than he does.... hats off ... what a great band..

    love em....

    And I use to drink in Henrys Bar...Also..

    The singer will know what I mean..lol..

    Manchester.....

  • Don't you just love this band! Come on Simon you're next album is well over due!

  • agreed. Saw Cherry Ghost at the Ritz Dec 2007. They were fantastic- found it difficult to dance as it had its usual stickiness. Probably from all the beer that thrown when Twisted Wheel fans bounced around a bit!

  • Haha as if this song plays at everybodys NEXT shop. Mine as well!

  • Reminds me of my ex girlfriend. Still leaves me with a sense of regret about leaving her. It was our song.

  • What lovely music its a pleasure to listen to it, dont ever split up Cherry Ghost or decide that you cant make music because by the sounds of it so far so fucking good!!!!:):):):) x

  • I love the way bands keep me enthused. These guys do a great job of blending indie with a beat that can actually be appreciated. They are more than we expect from bands these days.

  • cherry ghost aint indie dipshit indie is horrible and overproduced and bunk. this is good and the singer doesnt sound like an eleven year old with his balls chopped off

  • Superb band.....just superb......first heard them on BBC RADIO SCOTLAND.....Tom Morton show....mathematics is also great.....excellent band...dark vidoe..are they that ugly..is that why they hide...guess its gettting the 4 am mood..lol......lol.....great album as well ...you should buy it...

  • Mate of mine, Ben, is in the band and they deserve some credit at last... Sound lads!

  • A friend played one song from CH, that's all it took - I'm hooked!

  • First time I have ever heard this song. What a gem!

  • very good! Keep it going!

  • cool song :) x

  • my fave track of the year! but i wonder y simon holds his guitar so high, they are so hot! :) y did they get beaten by the enemy in the q awarde!? how the fuck!?

  • they impress me the other night when i listen to a sea of uninspired music a the swiss (couleur3) radio...then this music came out...it was impressive really...it was "False Alarm"... it's rare that actual music surprise me ...they're superbe...and so intense...that was like a wall of sound... a modern vision of Pet sounds...(of the beach boys)...

    i wish them good luck and pleasure !

  • cherry ghost are defenatly the best new band! i first heard them with the manic street preachers on the 3rd of december! amazing live!

  • dead mans suit is rather cool eh?

  • Such a beautiful song =] Thirst For Romance has to be my album of the year, absolute gold.

  • Shizenizer

  • just got into this song, haven't heard of the band before. Think i'll give the album a try on this song alone. Nice song and his voice is cool.

    Al

  • sweet melody ^^

  • everyone is so mean spirited... how sad...

  • if i was a band and on a video of me on youtube all people did was argue it would realy fuck me off. I think, you should just leave nice comments. GREAT SONG lol. peace

  • Yeah, that post was indeed a dyslexic feast, but I stand by everything I said.

  • # Dashing through the snow, on a one horse open sleigh!# is it me? LOL

  • This song is so awesome. I love his voice and I even love the video. Slow and sweet.

  • Zimchi...what a prick

  • these guys have got something!!i think they are going to be around for a while,nice one lads!

  • Brilliant.

  • And youre single!!!

  • Brilliant! Nice one.

  • By making those remarks old "edbingy thingy" I can only assume youre into the likes of Iron Maiden, ACDC and the rest of the long haired muppets???

  • And how exactely did you reach that asumption? Deary me, what a bunch of kids you are; can't you accept a bit of criticism, of a band you admire without descending to the level of a disgruntled 14 year old? Unless you're within swiping distance of me there's not much point in getting abusive when it's conducted over the internet. Jesus.

  • Absoultely fantastic artist!! Great album and this song is just fine!!!!! From down the road in sunny Chorley.....

  • I can't believe some of these comments! This song is awesome. It's about 'doh' loneliness and if you don't get the line 'for only i to keep' then maybe you shouldn't really shouldn't be commenting on other peoples work. All to our own, but if you think this song lacks depth then you really could do with a guiding light and a hand on your shoulder. Wonderful. song and album.I live in Bolton and can't believe i've only just discovered you, where have you been playing..The Castle?

  • No, I'm afraid you're overstating your case there. Forget 4 a.m., in the cold light of day this is just some sub-par poetry and aneamic country shuffeling. Not terrible, but I can hardly find much depth either. It tells us nothing new about relationships or stages its subject in anything like an interesting or original way. Q magazine will love it along with all the other gutless bourgeois sensitive shite that gluts there pages.

  • For BigDaz who asked, the songs about the KGB.

    The KGB reckoned that before 4PM, yew could be out in the bars, and after 4AM yew could be at work, but they figured that the majority of people would be in their apartments at 4AM, so it was always 4AM that they'd come for people.

    'It' in the song is the agents.

    Was on Radcliff and Maconi on BB2, hope that helps.

  • Sorry, put 4PM up there at the beginning, suppose to be 4AM, not getting caught out on that :P

  • yer i dont like it shame cherryghost have done some good stuff

  • "Ain't a place on Earth where loneliness ain't been there first" - He's got a point there in the lyrics.Don't think much of the rest of the song though , so it's thumbs down from me.

  • boring and lacking in any real depth. meh. There's not been much good music for some time.

  • boring i think you,ll find it is simple my friend never boring all classics are truly simple look back over the years friend , simple but classics

  • Then maybe you're looking in the wrong places...

  • We're ok now, I found some :D

    And In Rainbows'll be out soon.

    The world is saved.

  • I like the song but can anyone explain what this song's about? I'm not sure I understand the lyrics.

  • Great song! Love the album!

  • Strange, I thought they just had a massive marketing budget and weak songs. "For only I to keep"? Since when did this pap pass as quality?

  • The best I've heard from them yet - marvellous!

  • God i love this track, what a FANTASTIC album, just gets better the more you listen to it. Gotta go grab the CD out of my car now to listen to it all... brilliant.

  • Brilliant stuff. One of the best albums of the year (and it's a short list).

  • Great song great video

  • best song on the album

  • wicked song

  • great song great album....
