Unbelievable how these fella,s werent as big as other bands of their time like Cast, Embrace, Ash, Travis, The Verve to name a few. All the best from Lancashire.
The Smiths, the best band of 80's. Gene, the best band of 90's. Since the pandemic I have listened to their records again and they have helped me get through the bad times, but I was overwhelmed by a bittersweet feeling because one of the best lumps in the history of British rock as GENE, deserved massive commercial success. Why is the British music industry so cruel?
agreed. why do so many of the very best seem to 'miss out'? pisses me of but at the same time i sort of like it. we know about Gene and that's good enough for me
You said that i should look to the future, i've seen it i'll stay here I don't know why, i'm tied to the winter, can't find the time to leave The smallest gentle gesture, keeps the enemy at bay All i needed was a word where are they now? The sky seems a little lower, but for that a normal day Do i ask too much, where are they now? You said that i, take more than i offer, yes this is how i spend my time You'll come undone, if you dont make the effort, So seek and ye shall find So when disaster struck me, no heart left to offend Oh i only wanted friends where are they now? Will you be there forever, say i'll never be without Don't blame me for my doubt You see i can not stand alone, i'm incapable of breathing Incapable of love In my world, make me safe take me home I'm incapable of breathing, incapable of love You see i can not stand alone, i'm incapable of breathing Incapable of love Oh oh in my world, make me safe take me home I'm incapable of breathing, incapable of love You said that i, should stop trying to call you You've had it up to here And i konw your sort, but i just cant ignore you Oh i'm lost in the fog
One of those rare bands that sound very similar live to what they commit to record. Are Gene indie Rock, Mod, or all of the above. I've seen them a few times at Reading 95 was epic. Steve Mason is a magical guitarist
I was there in 1995! It was spectacular. That, along with Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine the following night, were 2 of the best gigs I have ever seen in my life. I'm 52 years old now!
Hasn't disappeared, just more difficult to find. Martin has recent stuff on his personal channel, as does Brett Anderson from Suede. Ivri Lider, Lola Marsh (band), There are others too.
1997 : " Tu sempre en deies que havia de mirar cap al futur L'he vist i he decidit quedar-me aquí No sé perquè estic lligat a aquesta vida gris i ombrívola No trobo el moment per a fugir i viure feliç El més petit gest d'amabilitat Manté als teus enemics a ratlla L'únic que necessitava eren unes senzilles paraules On són ells ara ? El cel sembla avui una mica més insignificant Excepte per això, un dia com els altres Demano massa ? On són ells ara ? Tu sempre em deis que rebia més què allò què donava Doncs sí ! Així és com passo el meu temps I si tu no fas un esforç, t'ensorraràs Busca'l i el descobriràs Així que quan el desastre em colpegi amb força Cap cor restarà ofès Només desitjava tenir amics On són ells ara ? Seràs allí per sempre ? Digues-me que mai estaré sense tu No em culpis per tenir aquest dubte Tu veus que no puc estar sol Que no puc valdre'm per mi mateix Sóc incapaç de respirar !! Incapaç d'estimar !!! En el meu món Fes que em senti segur !! Porta'm a casa !! Sóc incapaç de respirar !! Incapaç d'estimar !!! Tu veus que no puc estar sol Que no puc valdre'm per mi mateix Sóc incapaç de respirar !! Incapaç d'estimar !!! En el meu món Fes que em senti segur !! Porta'm a casa !! Sóc incapaç de respirar !! Incapaç d'estimar !!! Tu deies que jo hauria de deixar de trucar-te Que ja n'estaves farta Conec a les noies com tu Però, no puc simplemente passar de tu i ignorar-te Estic perdut en la boira "

Used to lie in my bed listening to this song and always felt it has a powerful, haunting vibe to it and really has aged well. Fantastic song and band.

Criminally under rated band.

💯
Such amazing songs
Brings back memories
This song enters your head en makes you wanna sing sing sing! One of the best rock songs ever composed, still in 2022
in their production there are some of the most beautiful songs ever. for over 20 years in my top 5 list
they need to comeback to show the world again what great music should be! seriously!
This song transports me back to my late teens ❤️
You said that i should look to the future, i've seen it i'll stay here
I don't know why, i'm tied to the winter, can't find the time to leave
The smallest gentle gesture, keeps the enemy at bay
All i needed was a word where are they now?
The sky seems a little lower, but for that a normal day
Do i ask too much, where are they now?
You said that i, take more than i offer, yes this is how i spend my time
You'll come undone, if you dont make the effort,
So seek and ye shall find
So when disaster struck me, no heart left to offend
Oh i only wanted friends where are they now?
Will you be there forever, say i'll never be without
Don't blame me for my doubt
You see i can not stand alone, i'm incapable of breathing
Incapable of love
In my world, make me safe take me home
I'm incapable of breathing, incapable of love
You see i can not stand alone, i'm incapable of breathing
Incapable of love
Oh oh in my world, make me safe take me home
I'm incapable of breathing, incapable of love
You said that i, should stop trying to call you
You've had it up to here
And i konw your sort, but i just cant ignore you
Oh i'm lost in the fog
Morrissey would have been happy with those lyrics at the height of The Smiths' fame. Wonderful.
LOVED this band. So underrated.
Best Gene song
-it's mint when this chorus kicks in.
Great rendition of a perfect song. Yes, this is how I spend my time.

Seriously, where this kind of music has disappeared? What the hell happened?

I saw them in 96 in seattle, maybe 97, great time, even though I had to go alone :(
Just incredible, love them, great track
PERFECT! WOOOOOW!

Saw them in Chicago in 1997 at Metro--they opened for Third-Eye Blind for goodness sake! But Gene had the bigger audience that night!
Magnífica canción

Great song,live and video.Thanks,Tolis.

WOW
Thanks for posting! I love this track & the quality of this is by far the best here on TH-cam :-)

I'm not alone!
All I needed was a word ☠️☠️☠️
1997 : " Tu sempre en deies que havia de mirar cap al futur
L'he vist i he decidit quedar-me aquí
No sé perquè estic lligat a aquesta vida gris i ombrívola
No trobo el moment per a fugir i viure feliç
El més petit gest d'amabilitat
Manté als teus enemics a ratlla
L'únic que necessitava eren unes senzilles paraules
On són ells ara ?
El cel sembla avui una mica més insignificant
Excepte per això, un dia com els altres
Demano massa ?
On són ells ara ?
Tu sempre em deis que rebia més què allò què donava
Doncs sí ! Així és com passo el meu temps
I si tu no fas un esforç, t'ensorraràs
Busca'l i el descobriràs
Així que quan el desastre em colpegi amb força
Cap cor restarà ofès
Només desitjava tenir amics
On són ells ara ?
Seràs allí per sempre ?
Digues-me que mai estaré sense tu
No em culpis per tenir aquest dubte
Tu veus que no puc estar sol
Que no puc valdre'm per mi mateix
Sóc incapaç de respirar !!
Incapaç d'estimar !!!
En el meu món
Fes que em senti segur !!
Porta'm a casa !!
Sóc incapaç de respirar !!
Incapaç d'estimar !!!
Tu veus que no puc estar sol
Que no puc valdre'm per mi mateix
Sóc incapaç de respirar !!
Incapaç d'estimar !!!
En el meu món
Fes que em senti segur !!
Porta'm a casa !!
Sóc incapaç de respirar !!
Incapaç d'estimar !!!
Tu deies que jo hauria de deixar de trucar-te
Que ja n'estaves farta
Conec a les noies com tu
Però, no puc simplemente passar de tu i ignorar-te
Estic perdut en la boira "
If one were to think of Brit-Pop then fuck Oasis and Blur; Gene are your band. Fantastic music.
Is that Steve M?
love this. where was it filmed ?
The Leadmill, Sheffield, UK
