I cried when he released this and his debut solo album. The Stone Roses saved me as a kid in so many ways. Much love to fellow Roses fans. True music for the masses 😎

This is just so effing brilliant, isn’t it? Love the 60s guitar licks and then unusual rhythms And the lyrics, just wrapped me up, his is an unusual mind. That’s for sure.
I like this, it’s sat with me for a good while now. I saw Mr Brown, he was in Manchester. I smiled at the man and for a moment I thought it was a friend I knew, but then I realised it was Ian. Well I didn’t speak to you but I have to tell you, your ‘the man’ . Your music speaks to me, I’ve heard many interviews that you have done. I heard you speak about how you were gonna grow flowers when you left the Roses, and how you went to B and Q and thought , right I’m gonna buy some loft insulation and make a studio and start again. Jesus man you speak volumes to me. I write song, there’s some on here. I went to a pub by your house, it was a wake. I stood suited and booted and the bar girl said she had known you for years. I saw the paintings of you and the great Tony Wilson. You presented hope to me Mr Brown, you see I write, play and sing. There’s some tracks on here..take a listen. But most of all keep those lungs healthy fella. This sounds stalkers like. But we drove past your house, I wanted to look at it. Beautiful place, I wanted to see what it must be like to wake in the morning and piece words together that have such validity that they are then lovingly worked into songs and anthems, I wanted to see how in turn you had changed them into the roof above your head. I felt that if I saw that it might inspire me, it might make me not die with my music still in me. God bless you Ian, you made your words monumental, you created a legacy. I saw you in a gig in Manchester, man I couldn’t here you for the crowd. They were so loyal, so faithful, you believed in the vibrance of your dreams and you painted the picture like a canvas. Whilst other could only picture it. Now have a cup of tea and listen to my offering. th-cam.com/video/i-nXo4clqsQ/w-d-xo.html
Totally remember this coming out I was blown away. The hole album is Amazing. Thanks Mr Brown for all the great tunes you have done and still to do. 👌🏴
I used to love this song as a teenager. I think it was on MTV and I quickly scribbled down the name and title to remember. The beautiful tune was in my mind for years. I started to search for it a couple of years ago. I'm still in love with it. And it throws me back in time to my carefree childhood years...
Love the Roses but prefer Ians solo stuff. This video reminds me of the time around 2001 when I actually bumped into Ian when changing from the northern line to central at Bank tube station. He was carrying a speaker on his shoulder almost as big as him. He was as cool as fuck.
I remember watching this on TOTP instantly obsessed and went through a big brownie period🔥still love his first 3 solo albums!! Man was a vibe🙌🏻looked cool AF too
Say what you like but I say Bob Dylan ,John Lydon and of the same calibre is the legend that is Ian Brown, absolutely outstanding and make no mistake a true marathon man...
Ian Brown has been ahuge part of life since i was 15 years old back in 94. I am obsessed with The Roses and obviously King Monkey himself. I had no confidence in myself until thos guy fed it to me. Thevway i dressed and still dress, Adidas mad and the haircut. He put a bit of a swagger in my step and its carrried me well into my 40's. This tune was mine and and old girlfriends go to song.
No, Brown is Liam's biggest inspiration I met him at Glastonbury in the empty crowd well before Brown came on. I virtually dissed Liam Gallagher to his face a few times but he humbly came back and agrees with every one of my points. He was a proper sound bloke. Still don't like oasis thoUGH
That’s truth. Now I’ve watched a few Aziz’s videos talking about his evolution from “the only Pakistani rockabilly” to what he’s done lately, is remarkable. And now I’m hearing things I’d missed.
Awesome track! Bought this album when it was brand new just before going around the world backpacking or a year! Bought a harmonica because of this song! Learned to play it!! Great memories 1998!
Loved and still love this album , absolutely cracking debut album off Ian , loved his early solo stuff my Star, Corpses, Dolphins , keep what ya got all Boss tunes
I remember when I came back from surf club and my dad came to pick me up from surf club and he had this blasting at full volume, And now it’s mine and his favorite song.
This song takes me back to dancing in the world night club in Warrington, good times sad they knocked it down no where as good since then love Ian brown and the Stone Roses :O) Cutting the word crack out only makes more people notice it and say it so kinda backfires on what there trying to do..Crazy!!!
Got it on cassette single from woolworths 98/9 I think, me and my mate listened to it on repeat for hours bit stoned went out came back, listened some more, fucking love it top marks

O my days lost with out the rose’s & Ian brown then solo 💫 got the chance to see them play Phoenix Park Dublin💯dream come true
Underrated tune big time
I'm with ya brother, Roses forever, Ian is brilliant, as is Reni , John, and Mani.
My dad used to listen this song all the time when I was a little kid. I'm now 15 years old and it's extremely nostalgic for me. I love it XD
@@georg6876 lol. Wonder how she's doing now.
Yes same i was around 15 when my dad played this all the time in the car im now 23

@mc danny none taken, except I'm 23 now fella
Now you are almost 30 :p
What a tune..... that harmonica bit is a jewel !
The little harmonica rift makes it for me
That's not him playing that though
The lead guitar in the chorus does it for me
Harmonica 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
@@wayneholnes7414 yes it is,he played it on stage when it came out
Listened to this for the first time in over a decade today, blown away. "Why tell lies, when the truth will do "

This is bloody stunning, dark, melodic, hypnotic! Yes
It bloody is,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Genius. Nothing left to say about Mr Brown 👍🏴🇬🇧
☠🐵
Stood the test of time, with honours!! Browny is a proper fkn legend, national treasure ! ♡
No he isn't
Lyrically and musically this song is genius. Any musician will agree with me
There's cool, then there's Ian Brown.
And then Johnny Marr
cool as fuck..no effort at all
Yer not wrong there pal 💯
He WAS cool...not nomore, though. Not now he's revealed himself to be David Icke mk2.
@@mana3735 And yet, because of the overwhelming EVIDENCE. I'm on his side.
Best song Brown ever did, no doubt about that at all..... That little chorus lick is SWEET.....
I myself can't make my mind up what Ian brown is my favourite there's that many. 👌
Too many...
Aziz
It is just superb.
Nah Time is my everything
One of his finest songs. The intro is mind-blowing.
Stunning track, as good as anything he did with the Roses
+SteveResin Majority of his work is and thiers more.Ians the man.stone roses
You have no clue! he's still the man! If Ian wasn't in the roses, I'm not sure if they would be who they are. To me, every member's part was epic!
Sonnet Lyric
what you bitching on about that people have no clue? We're praising Ian not slagging him off you donut
+SteveResin Yea yea! well that's what's up. donut? yes please ha ha
+SteveResin Peace ✌✌✌
Just realised Ian and musicians of his ilk are preserving old England. I didn't grow up there, but grew up on the sounds.

Thanks man. I needed to know that
its not about blow jobs ?
brubeck_108 yep, what he said👍
brubeck_108 pish
What even is this drool?
Even after all this time, still my favourite track of his solo career, or at least the one I feel the desire to revisit the most
He says what everyone is thinking.. real talk. Original legend.. seen him loads of times. His presence is phenomenal.
This is just so effing brilliant, isn’t it? Love the 60s guitar licks and then unusual rhythms
And the lyrics, just wrapped me up, his is an unusual mind. That’s for sure.
Indeed
Love Azizs riffs in this one.
At 53, I'm new to the work of Ian Brown. Better late than never. Awesometacular art with purpose.
What a brilliant and underrated song this is, all time fave.
Class!
Ian Jenkins 💯👌🏻
It never grows old.
Wat do u middle land people no about northern music, lucky Middlesbrough FC, country Durham
Underrated tune!!! In fact one of his best x
The mouth organ is exquisite on this track!🔥

RossBayCult Hoping he's got another album in him.
For me Ian is the Best British male.solo star since billy idol
Has ..

Pretty underrated this? Absolutely love it
Not by me. Fave tune of all time..
Well done. Possibly for the first correct use of underrated in a TH-cam comment!
That guitar just give me goosebumps
I think this is his best solo tune, something hypnotising about it...
Ian Brown, you were a teue visionary. I hope you have total peace and happiness. I have always loved your work, now they make sense. dark to Light.
He still is!!!!
Such a beautiful melancholic song.

Absolute classic. Only happy memories come flooding back🇬🇧
The man's got never-ending carisma, clearly Liam Gallagher's biggest inspiration
Thought that was lennon
well both of them isn't it, you can also see some of Lennon in Ian Brown
That's just Manchester folk
When you see Brown...Gallagher looks like a poor knock off
No, Brown is Liam's biggest inspiration I met him at Glastonbury in the empty crowd well before Brown came on. I virtually dissed Liam Gallagher to his face a few times but he humbly came back and agrees with every one of my points. He was a proper sound bloke. Still don't like oasis thoUGH
Aziz's guitar is what elevates this song to a trance beauty.

The guitars In this are perfect.
Classic song. Deserves way more than a million views in 7 years.
takes me back to 1998!!!! amazing year with amazing mates... ian brown you made my 18th a memory that will last, cheers
Still my favourite Ian Brown song after all these years.
What a tune
The coolest video and song possibly ever made by by possibily the coolest man of all time
an outstanding song,truly mesmeric...Ian Brown is a nonpareil of British music,a titanic influence.
Damn every song I listen too just keeps getting better & better how is this possible.

Awesome track! Bought this album when it was brand new just before going around the world backpacking or a year! Bought a harmonica because of this song! Learned to play it!! Great memories 1998!
Hi pal what key is the harp?
Genius 👌
2019 and Truly one of the best songs ever written, just another epic tune from a Legend. Not many kicking about now!
2022 & Mr Brown is more relevant than ever.
Standing the test of time pretty well this one is. That guitar work is A1.
Without Ian Brown music would've turned a different corner.a legend
The guitar riff is just Fuckin amazing!
GamersRevengeUK Agreed 😀
Aziz
London 1996 1997 i was working in SOHO and listening to this album for a whole month memories flowing back
Ian Brown is a living legend 👌🏻
Ian brown is a legend .this song is so cool
Been listening to this track for years and only just seen the original video clip for it... I always find it odd when that happens :)
the love remains the same.... THANK YOU
Rossana Alvarado What do you mean?
Aleema K ...sort of like... he turns me on the same as when I was a silly teen... nearly 20 years later... like that's what I mean..
I think this is the best thing he did.
Quality work from the swaggering Warrington Boy.

Love Ian brown so much I even walk like him after having my local Indian
Never gets old love it

Now listen to this song a few more times on top of what I said and you will see that people are capable of smoking crack to appear socially cool
Best of the best

Fingers crossed.
do you know what i love about Ian Brown ??????? IAN BROWN !
I didn't know Ian played the harmonica
Amazing
I think I'm right to say that Ian play nearly every instrument on the whole album 🤩 Bloke is a legend 👌🏼
Beautifully produced
EXCELENT, STRONG IAN BROWN
Ian Brown finest hour.
Just what i wanted him to do after the stone roses, it's all timeless, i want a 2017 album though, talented man!
Great song
Mad lyrics
What a legend
🙏🏻
I love since second coming
Ian is a true rock and roller xxx
Classic. social chameleon, love it.
I got laughed at when this came out and said it's one of his greatest pieces of work!!! Not many know of this song unfortunately
A Grand Don't Come for free is one of the best Albums i used to listen to and still just as good in 2024
One of his best solo efforts I'd say.
