Longpigs - Blue Skies

[@pulgosojj72]

Longpigs, the most underrated band ever. with one of the greatest singers too.

[@harrybrown4077]

What a great time the 90's was for music. A great single nearly every couple of days, something for everyone.

[@mchamberlain7408]

I mean, the fact the longpigs were not even MASSIVE shows you the standard at the time.

[@fxwhisper9567]

Expertly crafted tunes.......never easy or comfortable, always have something to challenge the norm. Quality, talent, beauty, craft. TOP band (from my home town ;-) )

i found this song on an album in a car when i was working in a crap job. It honestly brightened up an otherwise terrible day! Thanks for uploading!

[@daryllann]

Crispin Hunt is a genius !

[@Nightslasher]

This song reminds me of my days at college, great times.

[@KRAPYBARA84]

20 years later I just found out about this song and it’s so sexy lol

[@குருத்தேஷ்]

As a 2004 born kid, I'm upset such great songs are not there right now...

[@bertpharo8588]

What a song! Very 90's, summer, feel-good :D
Remember it from when I was young, and it was also played several times on Teachers (channel 4 sitcom).

[@safety47torkid]

Longpigs takes me back to Glastonbury U.K. every time I play it.
Love, love, LOVE it!!!!

[@GhanaRealEstate]

[@mchamberlain7408]

How were they not one of the biggest bands on the world?

[@LizanneFox]

Love this song!

[@FinlayStafford]

[@markfelts3976]

[@samvarleystephens]

It is indescribably weird to see your dad in this.

[@sunilCunningham-x9o]

which one is Dad...

[@johncollins5552]

I love the guitar sound, whatever they used, its great

[@Aleakwe]

💛 still love after all these years

[@chickenwuus]

@Goergebenson I think the production was very raw and this maybe has an influence on the listener making them feel it is a bit dated, but the lyrics and guitar lines still stand the test of time for me.

[@sunilCunningham-x9o]

I know that Longpigs were signed to U2's now defunct Mother label. Do i detect the backing vocals of a certain Mr Paul Heaton?

[@chickenwuus]

@Goergebenson Suede's album was called Suede not Nude. Nude was the record label. Just thought you'd like to know ;)

[@Optics2024]

I don’t know everything about the Longpigs but after such a promising first album, I mean what a few great tracks like On And On, there were still moments of promise on Mobile Home.... but they seemed to self destruct and not be able to quite handle or mange taking the next step. Mobile Home itself almost summed their career up in that regard, promising opening but tailed off quickly....sad really 😰

[@CaptainBalsaWood]

Great Band - Great Video. Can anyone upload the Frank Sonata video for the single that followed this?

[@richardneedham13]

Um
Tune.

[@janetmeagher9755]

tops!

[@MrShoecake]

I walk out of bars like he does at the end. And I react like he does, when women slap me - just cos of this vid.

[@jonny26281]

James Richardson does that happen to you often ?

[@MrShoecake]

jonny26281 No, but I mean, what’s often anyway?

[@costanzauk]

i cant believe how much you wanna try.......seriously LONGPIGS are fucking cool and people who don't get that shit just don't fucking get it you get me

[@treasureinvessel]

Mr blue sky was here

[@ShizuokaDolphin]

@captainofwhat
Nah, the album was pretty good too. Not a patch on their début, though. Not broad enough to have given them wider success, but that's not a bad thing.

[@sallyporcha]

Is this after Dee was sacked, cos he aint in the video!

[@ffarff]

i wish he'd stop messing about and having tanties and release that solo album AND the Bondi Tram stuff AND Gramercy album.

[@skippy646]

i loved the 1st song on the album better.....

[@simianshakenspere7334]

rinse

[@evorobin]

Second album take too much coke & fuck it up...

[@jamie1x1]

average album???
