- The Housemartins were an English indie rock group formed in Hull who were active in the 1980s, and charted three top ten albums and six top twenty singles in the UK. Many of their lyrics were a mixture of socialist politics and Christianity, reflecting the beliefs of the band (the back cover of their debut album, London 0 Hull 4, contained the message, "Take Jesus - Take Marx - Take Hope"). The group's a cappella cover version of "Caravan of Love" (originally by Isley-Jasper-Isley) was a UK Number 1 single in December 1986.
After breaking up in 1988, Paul Heaton and Dave Hemingway formed The Beautiful South, while bassist Norman Cook became an electronic dance music DJ and music producer, founding the groups Beats International, Pizzaman, and Freak Power, before rebranding himself as Fatboy Slim.
This performance was broadcast on November 11, 1986

Heart-stoppingly beautiful song. So sad and so beautiful.
one of my most favourite bands
what a voice
Something's going on, a change is taking place
Children smiling in the street have gone without a trace
This street used to be full, it used to make me smile
And now it seems that everyone is walking single file
And many hand their heads in shame
That used to hold them high
And those that used to say hello
Simply pass you by
Think for a minute, stop for a minute
Think for a minute, stop for a minute
I always said it could, they never though it would
The people look so pitiful, I'm thinking that it should
And now it's almost here, now its on its way
I can't help saying told you so and have a nice final day
And nothing I could say
Could ever make them see the light
Now apathy is happy that
It won without a fight
Think for a minute, Stop for a minute
Think for a minute, Stop for a minute
And many hang their heads in shame that used to hold them high
{Think for a minute}
And those that used to say hello simply pass you by
{Stop for a minute}
Think for a minute, stop for a minute
Think for a minute, stop for a minute
Wow just Wow what a truley amazing beautiful song. Love Paul Heatons Vocal range on this song.
Great dancer too 😂🤣
Always loved their image. Crew neck sweaters and Puma trainers. A whole world away from 80s glamour.
A precursor to the ludicrous sporting of outdoor jackets more suited to mountaineering of the 1990s. Also as far away from glamour as possible.
I like his dancing!!!!
He was quite the mover in his prime!
Wonderful Song!
Beautiful.
This is a special song soo beautiful,and what a vocal performance.Amazing.The best song they did in my opinion.
stephen wylie I agree. It is sublime. Can't believe it was released as a single only in the UK and only got to number 13. Paul Heaton's voice is so sweeeet and his dancing is enthralling but the whole band seem to be having a laugh larking about in this video.
Best song I feel (next to build) I can really indulge myself in this whilst most are unaware of its existence.
In the thick of it....thank you for music
Thanks for this good song with rare video and excellent sound take.
Wow,it’s happening now! Brilliant song
Class 💚💚💚
So cool 💜💛💚
To me it's the best song.
Nice and smooth song! :-)
Great tune
takes me back to 1986
Excelente !!!
Looks like this was shot not too long after they filmed the 'Caravan Of Love' Video, going by the crosses shaved in Paul and Stan's hair.
Ahhhh....but that's what THEY wanted you to think!!!! Think for a minute!
Always liked this song nice mellow
I had to tune in, as i hadnt heard this tune in donkeys years. Very mellow and soothing like honey to the ears.
Love this song
Great tune great vid
Still got this, somewhere....
Class band, pity they didn't release more albums.
Akelig actuele tekst.
These song lyrics fir so well with this Covid shite,
"And nothing I could say
Could ever make them see the light
Now apathy is happy that
It won without a fight"
could not have put in any better or clearer.
Best of luck to us all Players :)

2:09 Heaton's not happy with Fatboy. 2:48 Daggerz!🤣🤣🤣
Roy Keane, killing it on lead vox. I love this tune. More melancholic n plaintive than album version
E eu achando que os caras só tinham "build" como sucesso... Tem mais algum brasileiro por aqui?
Caravan of Love, por isso aquela cruz desenhada na cabeça dele
Tem varios sucessos
Opa! Housemartins é uma banda subestimada. Tem várias músicas boas, pena que só lembram deles quando tocam Build ( pros BR melô do pa-pa-pel )
mano eu assim como a maioria dos brasileiros conheceu essa banda atraves da musica build mais fui pesquisar mais sobre essa banda e gostei de varias musicas como happy hour , me and the farmer, over there(minha musica favorita da banda) ,think for a minute , everyday the same, freedon,we're not dep, bow dow
