Defo mate, will never stop listening to their debut album, timeless classic bought in 2007 as soon as it came out. Dryburgh houses twinned with ballingry, fife, shithole😂
Im from south korea. When i heard this song first time when i was 17. I always heard tihs music with my friends. We didnt understand lyrics but we sing together this song. good memories to me. now im 33 years old. But the don is my always first music ever.
Aw hi Marco! I used to work (lol) with him in riptide! What a wee sweetheart! I hope he is doing well these days! Love you, Marco Bennichi! ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗 💘 ❤️
Thats a beltor of a tune reminds me of one ae my best pals wee button,hes no longer with us rip my brother gone but never forgotten,ill meet you again one day my pal.❤❤❤.
great time to be young 2003-2009 so much great music (and a lot of bad music) but no one cared what you dressed like, everyone was ugly, no pressure to be cool, just drinking cans and going to indie clubs.
I remember when I went to ibiza rocks with them boys and still have the pictures to remind me of them good old days especially Ryan wot a legend that boy is the artist your freind Gary Lewis
Thinking of poems of poverty Sitting with a tight clenched wrist, thinking how to gain authority Oh what a soft touch of a boy He'd wander with pride to sell and keep visions to his self Visions to his self We'd talk of treasure, and over-rated games We'd steal the milk bottles, sneaking through the back round Jimmy's way. What we loved most of all, was sitting round the shop, while this young boy was sitting all alone, Sitting all alone Pondering times of sanctuary He was taking his piano lessons, we were on half an E Invested life in medicine, which isn't the wisest way to go, had so much shit going on. Convinced he'd never win. Convinced he was a sin. We'd speak of women and cheaper carryouts We'd turn up to all the festivals, trying to bring down the touts, What we love the most of all was sittin' round the shop, while this poor boy was sittin' all alone, Sittin' all a We'd talk of treasure and overrated games We'd steal the milk bottles, sneaking through the back round Jimmy's way. What we loved most of all, was hanging round the shop, while this young boy was sitting all alone He didn't find none of his own kind, he didn't have none of his own kind You should take interest in his mind, not spend all of his time wastin all his money and his time Thinking of poems of poverty Sitting with a tight clenched wrist, thinking how to gain authority Oh what a soft touch of a don He'd wander with pride to sell and keep visions to his self Visions to his self We'd talk of treasure, and over-rated games Steal the milk bottles, sneaking through the back round Jimmy's way.

@Chipshopwrapper I think the Don is a friend of theirs that they grew up with, and if I'm not mistaken, the guy in the video is really him. I think in an interview someone said Skag Trendy was just a character they came up with based on people they knew. Hope that helps.
Me and Dan did the security that day as in just meet and Dan,,that we guy off shameless is the only person EVER to beate at kicky off the wall and IV played that we a world cup winner,,, respect kid ,,,shams rule us bass

@332blondie as much as id like to agree, vevo are one reason why we dont pay for youtube, and id happily keep them here for that reason only, im cheap what of it.
I don't understand why The View hate playing this song, I seen they dropped it for a lot of their shows and I had to literally beg them for weeks to play it at the show I went to last night in Birmingham. Anyone know any reason why they hate playing it so much? Kyle even said on stage before playing it that he 'fucking hates playing this song'.
What does don mean, I’m from Aberdeen and don usually means someone from there but they’re from Dundee and I don’t think the context makes sense for it being someone from Aberdeen. Anyone know what it means in this song?
It is indeed, and his mum's house on the video for that song (which is also the one he steals the microwave from) was actually my mum's house. She wasn't really pleased when they used her candle holder as an ashtray!
Beve and a few _____s when sober is still minted, roll on the shrooms kicking in or have they? Am I writing this comment or is it me or is it? Must be me as I know it isn't someone else I think
2023 anyone? Classic tune. Great band.
Yep
Still got my signed t from one of there gigs . Been meaning to frame it but keep forgetting I have it .. class song

Loveable song and video.
That's my bairn playing the Don as a youngster and he's 25 now

@@jackiedoig260 Whey aye, pal! We all know what you’re talking about.
THOSE WERE THE DAYS
HANGIN AT THE SHOP WITH A BAG OF BEERS
not a single dislike!
Americans will hate the fact a Native America did the screenplay and produced.
Wot ta fuck has that got to do with anything
I totally agree. If the artist wants to have a youtube, they are more than welcome to. In fact, those are usually the best.
Just hear to praise the Lord
still a bangin band yee haa fukin yasssssssss
Least from housing scheme best luck n hats off to the busker's haha catchy haha :)
has anyone else noticed, that when the mother asks the other lad to come in for food, she calls him 'skag trendy' aha banter
HaHaHaHaHaHa the very best of bansk! Top lolz with the lads!
The pride of Dundee
What does he say at 0:54? I always sing along to that part when I hear this song although I don't know what I'm saying XD
Pondering times of sanctuaryHe was sitting taking his piano lessons, we were on half an E

Convinced he was a sin
@@stuartpenman6387 No. I mean the little part where he is sat down with the guitar just before he sings this verse you quote
@@swailesluke Ah that sounds like yah which just means yes
@@stuartpenman6387 I think it sounds like "talk to yah" but can't be sure
i think it's just a short humming, something like "lah-di-da" but maybe "tah-thy-rah" instead?

What does don mean, I’m from Aberdeen and don usually means someone from there but they’re from Dundee and I don’t think the context makes sense for it being someone from Aberdeen. Anyone know what it means in this song?
The don basically just means "the best of something" in the context of the song the wee boy has everything goin for him.
Don means the boss mate cmon u fs
The Don he's Italian it seems so Mafia, Italy, Don I think that's it anyway
I know the little boy in the blue shirt before he grows up
