One of the best and most accurate descriptions i ever heard was a music critic who said that when MacAlmont opens his mouth a cathedral falls out of it, his voice is amazing
I never tire of this song. Loved it back in the day, and love it now. It still gives me goose bumps. Its the whole package, the voice, the strings, everything. One word..WOW
I have been listening to this all day - it's incredible, the vocal, the arrangement, the crescendo, the swell of the song, it keeps going, the lyrics, the performance - that guy fascinates me.
One of the best songs ever... Spector did this in his dreams... Butler is a hell of a producer but the voice of David McAlmont is where its at... this band deserved better than they got... 10 years too early I guess...
This song is like transforming this world into heaven for like 3.59 mins. Everything so uplifted, flies and fluid. Why people don't make music like this nowadays.
My neighbours are sick of hearing me try to hit these high notes as I sing-along-a-David! My favourite song ever....and glad to see Mr McAlmont with a bit of meat on his bones these days....BTW, his 2011 rendition of this is spectacular....
this is what music is all about. A great bass and keyboard backing, good rythm and great lyrics. It's a shame they don't make them kie they used to. Classic Tune.
This song should be re-released it's brilliant. There is a lot of naff music and poor artist's around at the moment. True talent can stand the test of time and I'm sure there will be many people of all generations who will appreciate this fantastic duo.
This song is glorious and it's very special to me in that it helped me through a tough time with a PSYCHOTIC ex-girlfriend who put me through hell! The chorus sums it up perfectly!
Having seen them live at The Cockpit in Leeds I can vouch for how truly AMAZING David Mcalmont's voice sounds live..and what a great show the whole band put on!
loved this for YEARS- the one song guaranteed to make me sing it out loud at the top of my voice - it is just so unusual and poweful!!! yeaheaheaheah!!!
That voice! A gift from God - straight up. He reminds me of Grace Jones, the way he moves. And genius writing. Those lyrics are just classic. Food for the soul. Wonderful. I am so with you on this, macca5678. Has got to be re-released. Pure, raw talent like this being left on the sidelines, with so much crap being played right now - it's just criminal.
Bought this album (well tape ahem!!) when it first came out, my friends thought id lost the plot but i thought it was genius, it was ahead of its time. Amy, Duffy, Paloma take note!
just stumbled across and heard this for the first time and im blown away! wot an artist and wot an amazing track! why cant we hear music like this any more? brilliant!!
An absolute peach of a song! A beuatiful piece of music and lyrics. Came out at just the right time, and has spoken to me on many occasions ( Unfortunately) Actually, this is needs to be heard more, why does great music go unoticed! Grrrr
IMHO david mcalmont is possibly THE greatest lost secret in UK pop music in the last 15 years - truly ASTONISHING voice and never got the acclaim he deserved
I remember watching top of the pops with my blank tap in the video, making my compilations, it was hard work those days before youtube, I caught this song and played it to death,I haventt heard it in about 14, 15 years, but its a fantastic song,so nostalgic, thankyou
I'm in a hot room with the log fire blazing and this record still manages to send a chill down my spine...quite simply one of the greatest pop songs ever!
This sums up all that is great about Bernard Butler- from the beautiful, sad, harrowing music of Dog Man Star to the beautiful, happy, upbeat music of 'Yes', in only a year.
Awesome! I never saw the video when it was originally released. I love singing along to this this one...makes me feel great doing it....bit like when i sing along to Ben Folds Five " Song For The Dumped"!!
bloody LEGENDS the pair of 'em. met them once in manchester on the comeback tour - really nice guys. bernard is THE finest guitarist of the britpop set and david has THE best voice in the chuffing world! This was completely the soundtrack to my teens.
Soooo happy to have found this song again. I saw the video once on Z-TV in Sweden and never found out who they were or the name of the song. Then I never heard it again until now. Downloaded ripped and safely saved on 3 different hard discs, I even ordered a copy through Mp3va. Brilliant clip and great arrangement and McAlmont is a great singer.
So great to find this on here- loved it when it came out, still love it.Just what I needed to hear right now- probably the best "f*ck you for dumping me" song ever....
