Shed Seven are an English indie rock band from York and were one of the groups that contributed to the Britpop music scene that evolved during the 1990s, yet never received the degree of mainstream success achieved by bands such as Oasis and Blur. They formed in 1990 and originally comprised Rick Witter (vocals), Joe Johnson (guitar and keyboards, later replaced by Paul Banks), Tom Gladwin (bass) and Alan Leach (drums). They belonged to the post-Smiths wave of UK musicians such as the Sundays and Marion, with a sound relying heavily on complex guitar arpeggios in a minor or tonic key and wailing vocals. At the height of their popularity between 1994 and 1999 they had a number of top 40 singles and four top 20 albums in the UK. The band officially broke up in 2003, but announced their reformation for a greatest hits tour in mid 2007.

  • 90's indie pop, i miss it so much, this song reminds me of the youth club i used to goto on a friday night when i was in year 7. Snogging some girl after i bought her a curly wurly, girls were easy back then. As much as i love the 90s i can't stand thinking about it, that horrible nostalgic feeling you get knowing you'll never see those times again.

  • 96 what a year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • @YoutmanCuzFamBredrin aha can only agree with you there

  • the only good band at v festival.

  • I think it's great that they recorded the theme tune for Henry Kelly's programme "Going For Gold". This is a bit of a different arrangement though.

  • @ifthisisaman A 27 year constipation?... Now that's gotta hurt!

  • I first heard this sat on the toilet having a massive shxt - it ws like i was freeing nelson mandela

  • Happy Daze and so many great bands around at the time that never made it big.

  • this was playing on the radio when my girlfriend told me we were expecting our son (about march'96) he's a healthy 15 year old now and this tune is still ace!

  • Quliaty, great times, great gigs, Has anyone heard the Shed'd version of Cliff Richard's wired for Sound - it rocks can't seem to find it anywhere on YouTube.
