Show of Hands - Country Life

Show of Hands - Country Life video. I think this is in keeping with the spirit of spreading the word which is encouraged at the gigs. If not, Steve and Phil, let us know and we will remove the vid.

[NinjaJellyfish]

my geography teacher showed my class this song when we were learning about rural areas... i've been addicted since!

I'm 16 and from the countryside and have to agree this a top notch song. Afraid to show it to my peers coz i know they'll just criticize it, turn it off and then go back to their meaningless pop bullshit...

@Yokita6669 I agree that we'll have a lot to deal with but nobody can expect their life to be perfect or easy =]. I don't think it's the fault of normal people in the previous generations as you can never truly know what you're voting for or what will happen until it's too late. My nana and grandad voted for Thatcher and then regretted it deeply later on. All that matters is that bad things don't become more common than good.

@Emmie3303

hey thas something nice to read first thing in the morning :) it made be a bit sad to read your words, because the youngsters are the future and they will have a lot to do cleaning up the mess we created for them. I dont blame the kids to be little bit bitter, because I dont think that any generation (not even the one after the war) had so much on their plate and I am sorry to be part of this (maybe I votet wrong or been silent when I was supposed to be loud)

@Yokita6669 Maybe =]. My perspective has changed a lot since I wrote that comment but I don't want to delete it because it seems wrong to do so. The people I was talking about weren't my friends so much as people that were around me. I don't think I would write that comment now as I've realised that I can't truly know what those people are like if I'm not really close to them. Not everyone reveals everything about themselves to everybody =]. I have friends of varying ages too.

@Emmie3303

maybe you dont know the right people?

I am rather aged and know folks that are great and much older than me, to great and much younger as well-a lot of my kids friends are mine as well-and I am talking about friends I confide in, not just peeps I know. the age of my friends range from 10-93

age has nothing to do with being able to appreciate beauty, love, compassion and being human-my dad used to say *show me your friends, and I tell you who you are*

@Yokita6669 :)

[Yokita6669]

hey you 2 young ones :) dont fear what others think of you-i am the only one that listens to this in all of spain and before in vienna, but it makes me unique :) to my b day in my old pub in vienna, the bartender even played this for me

[MrBritainrules]

@thesamcroninproject im glad im not alone in the world, im in exactly the same position as you

[BringItBackITV]

Seen this band a million times.

Got this album signed at the village pump in July 2003, when then unusually played the second stage as opposed to the main stage.
