flowers and football tops

acoustic version of glasvegas song flowers and football tops set to some nice pics

Lyrics-

Baby
why you not home yet
baby its getting late
i wish you would be home by now.
door bell rings
who could it be at this time
police on my left and right
my son's not coming home tonight

baby, they don't need to show
its over, i know
baby, they don't need to show
flowers and football tops, i know
baby, baby, baby, why you?

no sweeping exits
no hollywood endings
flowers and football tops
don't mean a thing.

my baby is six feet under
just another number
my daughter without her brother

baby, they don't need to show
its over, i know
baby, they don't need to show
flowers and football tops, i know

my baby is gone...

(you are my sunshine
my only sunshine
you make me happy
when skies are grey
i hope you noticed
how much i loved you
how could they take my sunshine away)

i posted this song as i like this version of it...any more stupid comments and its coming down.

i appreciate people commenting on people deaths and such but can we leave out the abuse. it was a handful of people who did the awful thing to the poor wee lad, not an entire race.

[jamesgers08]

@gordonryan78 awful doesnt sum it up mate! although i dont agree with alot ofthe comments ive seen under this video i can fully understand the anger.

[gordonryan78]

@jamesgers08

i can understand their anger as well, but here is not the place to vent it

@every one else

i only posted vid so glasvegas fans could hear an acoustic version of a good song , i think its allot better than the album version

comment on the song, or not at all, or even say you like the pics in video , no need for anything else

this isnt all aimed at you just everyone in general

Can i dedicate this song to Kevin McDaid, he was a daddy of four kids who was beaten to death by a mob in Coleraine northern ireland on Sunday night after rangers won the scottish league...a life of 49 years was taken away in 2 minutes of madness...can i just say to his family im sorry to hear about your loss......i also think this song fits this moment ......peace

[gordonryan78]

of course u can......im a rangers fan and was appalled when i seen this on news.

both sides should be ashamed of themselves...absolutly no need for any of it

[steggybeetroot]

Proclaimers rip off? What fucking planet are you guys on? Just cause they sing with a proper accent? The fact they sing with their native accents is the only thing they have in common with the proclaimers! Complete different genre of music! Get your bloody facts right!

Glasvegas........different class!

[bazza00267]

Any chance of you sad fuckers just apprecating decent lyrics with a strong message instead of tryin to get one upmanship and fuckin fake credability on a daft community social website??

Buy the album or dont.........fuckin dead easy!!!!!!!

[gakyle1]

great version of such a powerfull song thx.

[MyMandaM]

this version of this song gets me every time - tears are running down my face right now

[AndyB1286]

This is a brilliant acoustic version of the song, and despite the terrible tragic meaning behind the song, you've managed to give it an air of beauty by adding the pictures. I didn't know people like Kriss Donald or Sophie Lancaster, but murders like those really fuck me off, and I'll give Glasvegas credit for writing songs about subjects that most bands avoid. Hope you don't take the video down :-)

[42carger42]

u guys r awesomeeeee !!! 

[bigtammcd]

great version mate cheers god bless

[McCloy7]

It is actually about kriss Donald. Glasvagas have talked about it.

Anyone know If the basterds wer killed in prison or not?

[8percentband]

my interperation was that it was refering to his girlfriend maybe the word son was ment to be like sun as sun shine just a thought
