I am ! Just discovered this song 15 minutes ago, it's incredible. I'm only 17, not old enough to feel but I have to say this hits hard. Thanks for making this masterpiece for a little boy like me to hear while feeling not good, 23 years later.
I keep coming to this video every now and then as it's very special in my life. this amazing song with the most amazing video will be listened to FOREVER. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Lyrics- Every day, I wake up and it's Sunday Whatever's in my eye won't go away The radio is playing all the usual And what's a wonderwall anyway? Because my inside is outside My right side's on the left side 'Cause I'm writing to reach you now But I might never reach you Only want to teach you, about you But that's not you It's good to know that you are home for Christmas It's good to know that you are doing well It's good to know that you all know I'm hurting It's good to know I'm feeling not so well Because my inside is outside My right side's on the left side 'Cause I'm writing to reach you now But I might never reach you Only want to teach you, about you But that's not you D'you know, it's true And that won't do Maybe then tomorrow will be a Monday And whatever's in my eye should go away But still the radio keeps playing all the usual And what's a wonderwall anyway? Because my inside is outside My right side's on the left side 'Cause I'm writing to reach you now But I might never reach you Only want to teach you, about you But that's not you D'you know, it's true But that won't do And you know it's you I'm talking to
This song is the only one in my life that actually takes me right back to a certain moment . I fancied someone that I worked with, he was older and had such a dry sense of humour and I never knew where I stood with him, I found out he sent me a anonymous valentines card ( which is still in my loft to this day !) and he admitted he liked me. We had our first kiss to this song and a wonderful couple of years . We aren’t together anymore and have both moved on over 20 years later but I’m still the 18 year old and it’s absolutely magic.
Well, they're not totally underrated, they had rather huge commercial and critical success from the late 90s until the mid-2000s. Sadly they only had little success since then.
I love the sound of Fran's voice. Its calming, understanding, kind, gentle, it just has a tone and quality to it that puts me in a very reflective and calm place :) I often listen to Travis songs on repeat because I love the music and Fran's voice. I thought Travis would of been bigger than Coldplay when they first come out. I don't really know why they just seemed to vanish.
I remember walking to work in upstate new york, listening to "The Man Who" on my minidisc player and just singing along. Those were great times, when I didn't have a care in the world.
One of the great bands in my life And I’ve seen and heard most For sixty five years The band are from the same city Glasgow My city Their city But a world class band They Are Magnificent 🎉❤
I actually feel ashamed that I've forgotten how much I used to love you guys and your music. 30 minutes ago an Oasis's song came up I was like wait... there was another band with also a lot of emotions and melancholy that I used to listen all the time, what WAS their name...???? A quick Google search and here I am. Made me cry, made me remember the good old times when I was 13-14 and had little to no problems. 20 years later and I'm overwhelmed with emotions, strange thing, music is. Thank you for all the wonderful times, your music made and still makes me happy❤
Надеюсь, ты умеешь пользоваться переводчиком, неизвестный человек, говорящий на другом языке ) Я из России И у меня все так же Эта песня сейчас в 4:15 утра возвратила меня в мои лучшие времена, без проблем и тревог, полных ожиданий от предстоящего взросления Я тоже люблю эту музыку И я верю , что у тебя и всех людей , любящих эту музыку все будет хорошо
Travis are one of the most underrated bands with a unique sound. This song and many other they did stick in my mind from 20 years ago. Fancying a girl you know you can't have, Euro '96, going out clubbing at weekend etc.
personally I guiltily admit that I like to think that this band is there for the connoisseurs and not diluted by a fanbase of the multitude! Will never forget seeing them live in Paris with the girl that sadly did not become my wife..
I used to think like that too for a long time but living long enough showed me that everything that get touched by the masses gets distorted, butchered and destroyed especially nowdays. Im glad this song dont get as many views as the pop stuff do...im glad the good stuff that was left still under the radar
I know this song from when Travis first released it but now is the first time that I've seen the music video to it and I'm sitting here simply blown away.
Whole album brings back memories of being at my grannies house in Edinburgh . Bought the album at HMV on Princes St and played it to death on my Sony discman .
Every day I wake up and it's Sunday What evers in my eye won't go away The radio is playing all the usual And what's a wonder wall anyway? Because my inside is outside My right side's on the left side Cause I'm writing to reach you now but, I might never reach you I only want to teach you, about you, But that's not you It's good to know that you are home for Christmas It's good to know that you are doing well It's good to know that you're no longer hurting It's good to know I'm feeling not so well Because my inside in outside My right side's on the left side Cause I'm writing to reach you now but I might never reach you I only want to teach you, About you, but that's not you To know it's true, but that won't do Maybe then tomorrow will be Monday And whatever's in my eye should go away Still the radio keeps playing all the usual And what's a wonder wall anyway? Because my inside in outside My right side's on the left side Cause I'm writing to reach you I might never reach you I only want to teach you, About you, but that's not you And you know it's true, but that won't do And you know it's you, I'm talking to Travis - Writing To Reach You (1999)
It really does feel like the world game to an end December 31st, 1999. Since then with the emergence of mobile phones and social media nothing in society has ever felt as meaningful as during the 90's - what an amazing decade. Sadly missed.
Me! September 2022. Got to see them this year at The Roundhouse in London June of this year. They’re still as good as ever. In fact they’re better! Love this band❤
Hermosa canción, que me trae a la memoria recuerdos muy tristes, pero a la vez, me recuerda porque vivo y le doy pa' lante aunque a veces me embargue la nostalgia. x'D
Took me fifteen years to realize that the video is about wanting to 'reach' someone you love (who may not feel the same way about you) and all the pain and hurt that you get (throwing stones, fighter plane) that you just learn to adjust (arrows in the chest scene) but you keep on going until you 'reach' that person.

This song was on a loop for me in 99 ❤️
I keep coming to this video every now and then as it's very special in my life.
this amazing song with the most amazing video will be listened to FOREVER. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Just got Minidisc versions of The Man Who & The Invisible Band. Epic! Was about time, in 2022! Still ❤️ album!
아 이게 3월초에 나왔었나 대학때 무쟈게 들었는데 우연히 또 듣게 되네 ~
The Man Who was a superb album, and is up there with the best indie albums of the 90s for me.
In my eyes and ears Travis is one of the greatest bands to ever exist.
En los mios también
Agree!!
My top 5 of all time
You are totally right
Lyrics-
Every day, I wake up and it's Sunday
Whatever's in my eye won't go away
The radio is playing all the usual
And what's a wonderwall anyway?
Because my inside is outside
My right side's on the left side
'Cause I'm writing to reach you now
But I might never reach you
Only want to teach you, about you
But that's not you
It's good to know that you are home for Christmas
It's good to know that you are doing well
It's good to know that you all know I'm hurting
It's good to know I'm feeling not so well
Because my inside is outside
My right side's on the left side
'Cause I'm writing to reach you now
But I might never reach you
Only want to teach you, about you
But that's not you
D'you know, it's true
And that won't do
Maybe then tomorrow will be a Monday
And whatever's in my eye should go away
But still the radio keeps playing all the usual
And what's a wonderwall anyway?
Because my inside is outside
My right side's on the left side
'Cause I'm writing to reach you now
But I might never reach you
Only want to teach you, about you
But that's not you
D'you know, it's true
But that won't do
And you know it's you
I'm talking to

How much older!?
@@barrytylermind ya own beeswax’s
@@SuperDan3232Sure, gave up an answer now anyway as it’s been too long!
This song brings tears to my eyes. My son's name was Travis . He committed suicide May 2005. He loved music . You Tube was new, and he missed it
Linda Root I hope your heart is not in so much pain now. I’m sorry you lost your son.
When ever I see comments like this while I'm listening to songs like these I feel kinda empty, very sorry about your loss.
Eli B Thank you ! I play this song once in awhile , so I just saw your comment. Bless you
Definitely Kirby thank you! Idk what drew me to play this song tonight. Glad I did because I read your comment and it made me smile! Bless your heart
linda from ga your welcome :)
Beautiful song from an underrated band.
Stuart dane I think so. A very underrated band
Well, they're not totally underrated, they had rather huge commercial and critical success from the late 90s until the mid-2000s. Sadly they only had little success since then.
You could say, they're an Invisible Band.
I love the sound of Fran's voice. Its calming, understanding, kind, gentle, it just has a tone and quality to it that puts me in a very reflective and calm place :) I often listen to Travis songs on repeat because I love the music and Fran's voice.

Still one of the best songs ever made
marty mcfly TM Serious respect for your comment man. Travis are a top fucking band!
110%!
Overrated tbh
@NeverTheLess Prøductiøns No, overrated.
O V E R R A T E D
Brilliant song.💙love travis
Travis is love, Travis is life. Most underrated band imo.
이 노래는 정말 주기적으로 들어줘야됨…처음들었던 그때로 돌아간기분…새로운세상임ㅜㅠㅠ
저도 고등학생 때 생각나네요 트래비스랑 맨선을 참 좋아했습니다
저도 정확히 같은 감정을 느껴요
20년도 더된노래인데 지금나왔다해도 전혀 촌스럽지않을정도로 코드멜로디가 세련됨

Think about the world now 😂
@@garrenhigginbotham6744 bro 12 years is a long time this guy might be a skeleton right now
2020, and I'm still writing to reach you ...
I love this song, always makes me cry and feel alive at the same time
You are right! I feel it so hard rn 😓 Hope you are well. 🌻
I remembered this song randomly and now I'm crying for some reason
2023 and I'm still writing to reach you. Such a beautiful underrated song.
Cannot agree more since since it's same here.....I'm writing to reach you ahead of 2024...
One of the great bands in my life
And I’ve seen and heard most
For sixty five years
The band are from the same city
Glasgow
My city
Their city
But a world class band
They
Are
Magnificent
🎉❤
This band should have been so much bigger and so much more recognized than what they were....so underrated its criminal...great great band
I actually feel ashamed that I've forgotten how much I used to love you guys and your music. 30 minutes ago an Oasis's song came up I was like wait... there was another band with also a lot of emotions and melancholy that I used to listen all the time, what WAS their name...????

Надеюсь, ты умеешь пользоваться переводчиком, неизвестный человек, говорящий на другом языке )
Я из России
И у меня все так же
Эта песня сейчас в 4:15 утра возвратила меня в мои лучшие времена, без проблем и тревог, полных ожиданий от предстоящего взросления
Я тоже люблю эту музыку
И я верю , что у тебя и всех людей , любящих эту музыку все будет хорошо
This song really touches my soul.
These guys deserve a Grammy, but it's sad to see the poor recognition they get internationally.
grammy sucks bro!
recognition means nothing, don't worry
Aditya Bhattacharya Grammys are meant for overrated autotune singers.
Travis is very very underrated. He deserves a lot more hype and stardom.
We scots still love them. That's all that matters tbh.
The Killers also named Travis as an important infuence and inspiration. Very differents bands but both good.
Travis are one of the most underrated bands with a unique sound. This song and many other they did stick in my mind from 20 years ago. Fancying a girl you know you can't have, Euro '96, going out clubbing at weekend etc.
amen
Nostalgic 👌
The radio is playing all the usual
And what's a despacito anyway
昨日ライブ行って聴いて、やっぱり素敵なTravisで泣けちゃいました。
The most memorable music video performed by Travis. Such a wonderful song to go on a road trip. I am listening to this song in 2021.
Me Too! : )
It's a shame songs like these don't get views, but bullshit pops hit billions!!!
Mainstream songs without much depth and complexity.
So true
This is literally pop music
personally I guiltily admit that I like to think that this band is there for the connoisseurs and not diluted by a fanbase of the multitude! Will never forget seeing them live in Paris with the girl that sadly did not become my wife..
I used to think like that too for a long time but living long enough showed me that everything that get touched by the masses gets distorted, butchered and destroyed especially nowdays.

Travis & keane make this world beautiful so we can live 💜
2019 anyone?
I still love this song
May 2019......a great song is still a great song 👍👍💜☮🕉
Good name too sir 👍
im still here... thank you, We The Fest!
Gue!
Quality tune 👍 travis rule 💙
...But still the radio keeps playing all the usual
And what's a wreking ball anyway
'Whats a wonder wall' Obvious oasis reference
yep, i know. it was just a joke!
Anselmo Athan lol was always going to be one mate hahah :p
Yancade hand built games machines "What's a wrecking ball" Obvious modern reference.
ha ha nice
so many years have passed .. too long. Travis always there to accompany us, always with that broken heart
very nice old memories
Whole album brings back memories of being at my grannies house in Edinburgh . Bought the album at HMV on Princes St and played it to death on my Sony discman .
Never one my go to songs My Travis over the years.
But more recently it's now one of my favourites.
Great song and great band
The man who is... Masterpiece. You guys should be proud of the incredible work you produced. Xxxx
They made lovely songs...❤
Such a great song! Travis is so underrated! It's now the end of September 2023 and I'm still loving this song so much!
歌詞の意味が完全に分かるわけじゃないのに、歌声とメロディとサウンドでもう心にぐっときます。自然に涙が出ます。ずっと大好きです。
His voice is like an alto flute. So beautiful
February 2024, anyone? Travis, trascendental music.
Always hit this
Always
April🎉
April+1
Always
Tumbado en la playa, disfrutando del mar Mediterráneo, contemplando la puesta del sol, escuchando Travis...
20년도 더된노래인데 지금나온 노래라고 해도 전혀 촌스럽지않다 멜로디 코드 보이싱 앙상블 모든게 깔끔하고 이쁘다
Travis was the first band I seen live, 2003 in glasgow. I was 13.. it was an awesome gig :) Keane supported them!
discovered this band was i was 19, in 2004. brings back so much memories. fan from singapore
I love this song.
What a magical song! I miss Travis so badly!!! They should re-unite again & make some more beautiful Cd's!!!
Still in love with Travis 25 years later. Absolutely in love with this band
Forever...one of my most cherished bands...these songs...OMG...LIFE!!!
Every day I wake up and it's Sunday
What evers in my eye won't go away
The radio is playing all the usual
And what's a wonder wall anyway?
Because my inside is outside
My right side's on the left side
Cause I'm writing to reach you now but,
I might never reach you
I only want to teach you, about you,
But that's not you
It's good to know that you are home for Christmas
It's good to know that you are doing well
It's good to know that you're no longer hurting
It's good to know I'm feeling not so well
Because my inside in outside
My right side's on the left side
Cause I'm writing to reach you now but
I might never reach you
I only want to teach you,
About you, but that's not you
To know it's true, but that won't do
Maybe then tomorrow will be Monday
And whatever's in my eye should go away
Still the radio keeps playing all the usual
And what's a wonder wall anyway?
Because my inside in outside
My right side's on the left side
Cause I'm writing to reach you
I might never reach you
I only want to teach you,
About you, but that's not you
And you know it's true, but that won't do
And you know it's you, I'm talking to
Travis - Writing To Reach You (1999)

Melancholy :)
Escuchar esta canción en 2019 es vivír !!!!arriba Travis !!!
Every day I wake up and it's Sunday
Whatever's in my head won't go away
The radio is playing all the usual
And what's a wonderwall anyway
Bill Hill Actually he does say head in the first verse.
No.....he sing's whatever's in my EYE won't go away. Like the band i'm also from Glasgow. You're welcome.
Who fu*cking cares?
Steve Morgan These Weasels do (Obviously).
Listened to this a lot when my grandad died.
Never ceases to amaze me
Love you forever Grandad x 💙
Listening to this gets me emotional as it takes me back to 1999 and all the wild fun.
Traavis
What an album
My God, what a tune.
Still amazing!! Thank you Travis!
I heard this song a million times at least, but I cannot get enough. Fantastic song and video, too. Cheers from Germany
Bet you're liking the plane as well?
It really does feel like the world game to an end December 31st, 1999. Since then with the emergence of mobile phones and social media nothing in society has ever felt as meaningful as during the 90's - what an amazing decade. Sadly missed.

TRAVIS A MELHOR BANDA DE INDIE ROCK
Concordo meu jovem!!!
노래좋다.
It's 2023 and I'm here just to remember how I love Travis and this song.
One of my alltime favourite songs 👌
My most favorite song from Travis❤
Indie people hit that floor for a real classic!
'Cos I'm writing to reach you but I might never reach you~
Leonidis78 That's lyrics song baby~
Xoxo
I will reach you...
The better song when was young !!! What remember 🙏🏻
Me! September 2022. Got to see them this year at The Roundhouse in London June of this year. They’re still as good as ever. In fact they’re better! Love this band❤
very very cool song

오래도 됐다.. 그럼에도 아름답고
Love Travis , always did , always will 😎
Saw Travis play in June 2022. They were awesome, awesome, awesome.
Still listening in 2024
Me too 🙌🏻
Man, this is a great song. Always was
Writing to Reach You é minha canção preferida do Travis
The greatest indie album of the 90s kept me sane during basic training in the army
Thank you travis. The album that kept me going in 2000. And I still love so so much. It will keep me going I 2022. Life, right?
Difícil escolher mas essa é a melhor música de travis 😍😍🇧🇷🇧🇷
He said tonight he stole the chords from Wonderwall , but this is the greatest song too anyway. They are genius.
Hermosa canción, que me trae a la memoria recuerdos muy tristes, pero a la vez, me recuerda porque vivo y le doy pa' lante aunque a veces me embargue la nostalgia. x'D
Took me fifteen years to realize that the video is about wanting to 'reach' someone you love (who may not feel the same way about you) and all the pain and hurt that you get (throwing stones, fighter plane) that you just learn to adjust (arrows in the chest scene) but you keep on going until you 'reach' that person.
The most beautiful song that TRAVIS sang since I watched their music video on TH-cam, last year and 2020.
This song is beautiful
초딩시절 프로레스링 블로그에서 처음들었던노래.. 새벽에들으니 더좋네
Es de las mejores canciones de Travis.... Los amo amo amo
Man this takes me back, jesus...
Love this track.Watching a bit of Travis the other day and hadn't heard this song in a while. One for the times we live in at the moment.
