I love this song and it's very deep. Even the video has meaning. His walk is a representation of the path of life, the people he encounters are the people and events that we encounter through our lives. The guy with the fridge on a dolly is like a big life altering event that was narrowly avoided. The people he bumped into are the little speed bumps that help shape our lives. The girl in the car is a bad relationship, the car is the large event that he was able to cross and move on from but she didn't move on as easily and followed representing how a love can effect your life long term even after it's ended. The lady he knocked down was like an encounter where he hurt someone else's life in some way and he was recognizing that but still life continues without looking back. The girl that checked him out was like a perfect fling that came and went and left only a fond memory. The car that actually made him pause was a major life event that held him in place for a while, maybe good maybe bad but significant enough to make his life take pause and him looking at his reflection in it's window's was representing him taking that moment of pause to reflect on himself a bit but in the end it too did pass and life continued as always. At the end when the other four followed with him is like the people in your life who are there for the long haul whoever they may be they stick with you till the end while still living their lives respectively.
Urban Hymns is one of my favourite albums. That street in Hoxton looks exactly the same now as it did then. The girl who gets out of the car is Ashcroft's wife.
Bittersweet Symphony is my favourite song of all time by far!!! I’ve listened to it a million times & every time I do I feel something different. The magic of music. Richard Ashcroft is a genius who wrote one of the greatest songs I’ve ever heard. And it will forever be timeless. 🙌 Also Cruel Intentions is a banger movie & the song is used perfectly in it.
this is a monumental song. It has only gotten more fruitful and ellegant as the year have gone by. Its one of those songs that I will always keep deep in my heart
They got absolutely shafted by Nike. Robbed The Verve of millions through legal loopholes and bullshit. Nike legitimately bought their success and ended the band. Lots of interesting articles and videos on that.
Richard Ashcroft had great success in U.K and Europe with The Verve. This was a massive hit in late 90s, and was also used in the closing scenes from the cult 1999 film Cruel Intentions starring Sarah Michelle Gellar and Reese Witherspoon.
I was 17 when this song came out and my dad had just died a little over a year earlier. I was very much living a bittersweet symphony. I have strong memories of where I was and what I was doing when this song was playing.
The blonde lady who gets out of the car to argue with Richard Ashcroft is his real life wife and fellow musician Kate Radley, formerly of the band Spiritualized.
it was used in the classic "what comes around, goes around" scene from the movie "cruel intentions" staring sarah michelle gellar, ryan phillipe and reese witherspoon 😎
The whole album that this track is on is ABSOLUTE FIRE!!!! Pure Wordsmithing genius by Richard Ashcroft... One of the best albums released by a British band in the 1990`s!
Richard Ashcroft’s song was supposed to have sampled the orchestral cover of “The Last Time.” Mick Jagger and Keith Richard’s have since returned the royalties to their rightful owner as they had nothing to do with the orchestral part of the song. “The Drugs Don’t Work” is said to be about Richard’s dad who was dying of cancer. The song “Everybody” is a great song from Richard Ashcroft’s solo career.
I am 68 years old and I have loved this song since it came out! There are a few songs that make me want to turn it up ---- this is one of them (another one is Radar Love, from way back in the day).
The Orchestral hook was actually taken from a Rolling Stones song "The Last Time" performed by the Andrew Oldham Orchestra, I think they lost royalties from the song after they were sued for copyright infringement.....A great song and a good use of a sample though, it was a big hit in the UK. Enjoyed your reactions guys thanks!
Richard Ashcroft, didn’t get any money from the sales of his biggest hit, very recently The Stones actually gave Richard Ashcroft the full rights to the song and repaid all outstanding money
As I read your comment this entire song came together and made sense. I will never see this video the same way again. The metaphors, the symbolism. Thank you.
I’ve followed Richard from his early days right through his solo career… amazing vocalist who I have seen perform live around 10 times… I’m seeing him again this summer ❤❤❤
At it's height, this was also used in a series of Nike commercials featuring older people working out. One of them said, "I'm not strong for my age, I'm strong". Terrific ad campaign. This song was everywhere. The video was always on. Constant radio play. HUGE song of the latter 90's. I still play it and still love every second of it.
The Rolling Stones' record label allowed The Verve to use a sample of their song, but the Stones' manager then denied them permission - and so the Stones ended-up getting all the royalties from Bitter Sweet Symphony. When manager died Mick Jagger and Keith Richards gave the rights to The Verve.
@stephenvalente3296 They got very little, it was the publishing rights the Verve got into trouble with and the Stones did not own them, it was the greedy ex manager who got himself a nice lump of money.
Ren did a cover of this ( which is really good worth a watch)The Verve gave it the thumbs and the bass player of The Verve sent Ren an electric guitar . What a way to show respect :)
On local radio they have an ongoing text in called 'did you meet someone famous' One girl texted in that she was on holiday in Cornwall and the lead singer of the Verve, Richard Ashcroft, was in the same cafe. She said she daren't ask for his autograph, because he looked so intimidating.
Great Reaction Sam & Phil! I enjoyed the movie Cruel Intentions (1997)! And this song was really fitting for the closing scenes! This was before Sarah-Michelle Geller started her Buffy The Vampire Slayer series! If y’all saw Cruel Intentions that would be where you definitely would have heard it!🎻 🙏🏻
You might know it from TV Ads. Nike used it. You may have heard it via the Ads. Great stuff as usual from you folks. The Verve are friends with Oasis as well. I was at an Oasis show in NYC and the Verve walked in and the crowd went nuts! They were sitting in the Balcony and Noel told Richard he was a lightweight!! It was insane.
Other people explained the symbolism behind the video in other video reactions. The people he bumps into, which looks on purpose, the screaming woman etc, all people he has come into contact with, in his life thus far, symbolises his relationships with them, good or bad. The royalties issue was resolved a few years ago, whereby Richard now receives all royalties from this legendary song from 1997.
I remember when this first came out and the hook grabbed you. The video also was unique and stood out at the time. I also remember hearing Space Hog: In The Meantime which also caught my attention. Oh I was 29 in 1997. Lol
Coldplay sang this with Richard Ashcroft at the Live 8 concert is probably why you thought this. Best line in this song is "I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind". This song is genius
So funny you associated this with Coldplay. When I went to see Coldplay live for the first time on 7th July 2005, Richard Ashcroft (The Verve) was their support act. Due to massive traffic issues on the way to the venue, as well as on the parking grounds, we walked in when Ashcroft just started the last song of his set: Bittersweet Symphony. It had been a crazy day, due to the bombings that took place in London, earlier that day. Quite early in the concert Chris Martin talked about how they had been trying to reach family and friends back home all day. Credits to Coldplay for still playing a good show that evening, which must have been hard for them.
Oasis are another great British band from this era worth checking out. Their song "Champagne Supernova" has a really cool vibe like this one and "Supersonic" is another great song of theirs
I love this song! I highly recommend that you watch the movie "Cruel Intentions." This song was in the movie at the end and it was PERFECT! "Cruel Intentions" is based a the book/movie "Dangerous Liaisons."
A few years ago a music lawyer and a musician wrote software that generated every possible melody and made it available to the public so it's now impossible to sue someone over a "stolen". melody.
The Stones version, The Verve took the string track from, is an instrumental...so the Stones got royalties for a song w/Lyrics for twenty + years. The rights were given back to The Verve in 2019.
The 1965 Andrew Oldham Orchestra version of The Last Time the Verve used is instrumental. The original 1964 Stones version most definitely has lyrics. The Stones version borrowed heavily from a 1954 gospel song This May Be The Last Time by the Staple Singers.
@@midnightrambler7716 Thank you...but didn't the Verve only use the string track to AOO's The Last Time? The Lyrics to Bittersweet Symphony are Ashcroft's, right? And The Stones plagiarized The Last Time from The Staple Singers with no royalties going to them from The Stones. The whole ordeal is because of the evil A-hole, Allen Klein.
@@Roh_Echt Correct on all accounts as far as I know anyway. I was confused because I thought you were referring to the Stones version of The Last Time being an instrumental when it was in fact the Andrew Oldham Orchestra version.

As far as I know the Stones didn’t get taken to court for plagiarizing the Staple Singers version because the verse melody and hook did not exist in the Staples version which was based off of an ancient gospel song. Led Zeppelin ran into other similar scenarios with stuff they “borrowed” or were influenced by, from many blues artists as well.
@@midnightrambler7716 Yeah, I could see how what I wrote was misleading. So I edited my statement to be more clear. And yep, we are all aware of Zeppelin's "borrowing" woes...aren't we? LOL
This song only appeared in two advertisements for Nike in 1998 and Vauxhall in 1999. The whole thing was complicated by a long-standing legal dispute with the Rolling Stones. So no Philadelphia cream cheese😁 By the way, this song was released a whole year before Coldplay's first record ever, so it's fair to say that Chris Martin's singing reminds you of Richard Ashcroft's singing and not the other way around.

Very deep song. Especially like how they used it in the film CRUEL INTENTIONS (1999). Can't recall any RS song in this. Speaking of true 'rip offs' , sample The Kinks' ALL DAY AND ALL OF THE NIGHT (1964) with The Doors' HELLO, I LOVE YOU (1968).
This Song is also great as a Hype Up song like say just before going/walking in for a job interview or heading over to Relationship Partners place to Breakup with Him or Her face to face

Watch out! This music will change you!
Apparently,the girl in the car is actually his real life wife
I love this song. Always tried to find meaning in the video. Ty for sharing brother.
Well said
Reminds me of Cruel Intentions every time I hear this. ❤
One of my favorite final songs of a movie. Such a great scene
Same…
Movie had a great soundtrack.
Takes me back to being a 15 year old ❤
"Dr King is my Favorite" !!!! LOL
Iconic 🖤
Bittersweet Symphony is my favourite song of all time by far!!! I’ve listened to it a million times & every time I do I feel something different. The magic of music. Richard Ashcroft is a genius who wrote one of the greatest songs I’ve ever heard. And it will forever be timeless. 🙌
Also Cruel Intentions is a banger movie & the song is used perfectly in it.
Same,million times never sick of it.Reminds me of myself at the time. I always get emotional with this song.
One of my all time favorites. The violin!
Chris Martin from Coldplay has stated that their band was inspired by The Verve and Oasis and U2 to some extent.
Richard Ashcroft and Chris Martin are good mates as far as I know.
Coldplay doing Bittersweet with Richard at live8 is legendary!
After their first couple of albums, I don't hear much The Verve or Oasis influence in Coldplay. More like the more poppy side of U2.
On the soundtrack for "Cruel Intentions", used at the end of the movie.
Probably the least interesting fact about this monumental classic song 🎉
this is a monumental song. It has only gotten more fruitful and ellegant as the year have gone by. Its one of those songs that I will always keep deep in my heart
They got absolutely shafted by Nike. Robbed The Verve of millions through legal loopholes and bullshit. Nike legitimately bought their success and ended the band. Lots of interesting articles and videos on that.
Excellent Band !! Richard Ashcroft is freaking Genius !!!
His solo work is killer.
Richard Ashcroft had great success in U.K and Europe with The Verve. This was a massive hit in late 90s, and was also used in the closing scenes from the cult 1999 film Cruel Intentions starring Sarah Michelle Gellar and Reese Witherspoon.
Man the end is the ultimate get back!
Great movie.👍
The Urban Hymns album where this song was on is brilliant!
I love Urban Hymns.
Very good album 👌🏻
Incredible song. 1B views on YT is a testament to that
Considered by many to be one of the best written songs.
It was used in the movie Cruel Intentions
I was 17 when this song came out and my dad had just died a little over a year earlier. I was very much living a bittersweet symphony. I have strong memories of where I was and what I was doing when this song was playing.
a masterpiece ! one of my all time favs. brings back memories of 90s England. amazing instrumental (a classic) and fantastic richard ashcroft vocals
This song plays heavily in the movie Cruel Intentions which is worth watching if you havent seen it.
The blonde lady who gets out of the car to argue with Richard Ashcroft is his real life wife and fellow musician Kate Radley, formerly of the band Spiritualized.
The juxtaposition of his unwavering strut and symphonic sound and real life going on around him are quite "magical" and captivating.
Richard Ashcroft is an amazing writer!
it was used in the classic "what comes around, goes around" scene from the movie "cruel intentions" staring sarah michelle gellar, ryan phillipe and reese witherspoon 😎
Yes I'm here guys this is an absolute banger as Phil would say 😂 Yes the beginning was used here in Canada in a commercial ❤
The whole album that this track is on is ABSOLUTE FIRE!!!!
Pure Wordsmithing genius by Richard Ashcroft...
One of the best albums released by a British band in the 1990`s!

“The Drugs Don’t Work” is said to be about Richard’s dad who was dying of cancer.
The song “Everybody” is a great song from Richard Ashcroft’s solo career.
I seen Richard Ashcroft live with Liam Gallagher from Oasis last year and they were outstanding . One of the best concerts ive been to in loooong time
I am 68 years old and I have loved this song since it came out! There are a few songs that make me want to turn it up ---- this is one of them (another one is Radar Love, from way back in the day).
Used at a key moment in the film "Cruel Intentions",a modernisation of "Dangerous Liaisons"🎩
To me, it's a credit track piece. I hate the video, enjoyed the movie.
Also, a FAR inferior version of Dangerous Liaisons.
The video did this song a lot of justice. Cool reaction.
The Orchestral hook was actually taken from a Rolling Stones song "The Last Time" performed by the Andrew Oldham Orchestra, I think they lost royalties from the song after they were sued for copyright infringement.....A great song and a good use of a sample though, it was a big hit in the UK.

@@stevenclarke5606 Wow, I didn't know that, thanks for the info Steven!
The people in the video represent obstacles in life and the singer unable to change his direction for the better. Great little song.
As I read your comment this entire song came together and made sense. I will never see this video the same way again. The metaphors, the symbolism. Thank you.
@@joannparker1977 You're welcome.✌️
I saw him sing this live a few years ago. It was great but after the show was cool too. He stayed on stage and chatted with people. Very nice guy.
You need to react to Ren's version of this!!
The song existed a long time before any commercial usage. It's well over 20 years old and hard to imagine anyone not knowing this song.
You have to remember how young they are.
You need to cover , the drugs don’t work.
It’s a very emotional song, it brings me to tears every time I hear it.
I’ve followed Richard from his early days right through his solo career… amazing vocalist who I have seen perform live around 10 times… I’m seeing him again this summer ❤❤❤

Richard Ashcroft is top notch.
One of the soundtracks of my teenage years
Probably, best 90's song! My favourite 90's song! I LOVE IT! GRETTINGS FROM SPAIN!
Love the post! I love this song, but the video was a slight rip off of Massive Attack's video for 'Unfinished Sympathy'. Keep 'em coming😁
The best song of the 90's + Classic Music Video!!
The Rolling Stones' record label allowed The Verve to use a sample of their song, but the Stones' manager then denied them permission - and so the Stones ended-up getting all the royalties from Bitter Sweet Symphony. When manager died Mick Jagger and Keith Richards gave the rights to The Verve.
Not like the Stones needed the cash in reality!
@stephenvalente3296 They got very little, it was the publishing rights the Verve got into trouble with and the Stones did not own them, it was the greedy ex manager who got himself a nice lump of money.
History is their masterpiece .
Love this song, this was taken from an old Rolling Stones song, and they had to give up most of their money!
Just the strings were sampled.
Sometimes he says I can change and sometimes he said I can't change.
Love this one. That woman who got out the car was his wife apparently.
Ahhh I didn't know that.
A classic track🇸🇪
This songs brings back great memories, i was at university and having a great time , wish i could go back😢
Wonderful song and video! Ren does a great retake of this and the Verve bass player sent him a bass guitar to show his approval! Cheers.
Such an awesome song that never tires. Kick ass video too.
Ren did a cover of this ( which is really good worth a watch)The Verve gave it the thumbs and the bass player of The Verve sent Ren an electric guitar . What a way to show respect :)
I bumped into that guy from The Verve the other day......

This song makes the "bittersweet" ending of the movie Cruel Intentions very memorable.
I’ve always really liked this song. Especially when you’re in that don’t talk to me don’t look at me mood
Great Reaction Sam & Phil!
I enjoyed the movie
Cruel Intentions (1997)!
And this song was really fitting for the closing scenes! This was before
Sarah-Michelle Geller started her Buffy The Vampire Slayer series! If y’all saw Cruel Intentions that would be where you definitely would have heard it!🎻 🙏🏻
Ive loved this song before it was made popular by Cruel Intentions. Soundtrack of my youth ❤
The band is from my town, Wigan❤
This song is played in the movie Cruel Intentions.
You might know it from TV Ads. Nike used it. You may have heard it via the Ads. Great stuff as usual from you folks. The Verve are friends with Oasis as well. I was at an Oasis show in NYC and the Verve walked in and the crowd went nuts! They were sitting in the Balcony and Noel told Richard he was a lightweight!! It was insane.
It's a title track from a movie called cruel intentions
Great movie , with Sarah Michelle Geller
I discovered this song from the movie Cruel Intentions but ive loved it since then.
This Entire Album is a Gorgeous Time Capsule

The band met in the early 90's at Winstanley College, Wigan
Always liked this song. It's the only song I know of from the Verve.
The Verve is 100% worth it
The drugs dont work
Sonnet
History
A thousand trees
Everyday i think of money
Bars and Barbells, you should really check out Bryan Adams - Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman. You won't be disappointed.
This was the "outro" to the modern version of Dangerous Laisons with Reece Witherspoon. 😊
Oasis are another great British band from this era worth checking out. Their song "Champagne Supernova" has a really cool vibe like this one and "Supersonic" is another great song of theirs
you should do Ren bittersweet symphony the guitar player for the verve like it so much he sent Ren one of his guitars
Coldplay and Richard Ashcroft did perfom this together in 2005 at Live8.
It was on the soundtrack of the movie Cruel Intentions.
I love this song! I highly recommend that you watch the movie "Cruel Intentions." This song was in the movie at the end and it was PERFECT! "Cruel Intentions" is based a the book/movie "Dangerous Liaisons."
"Cruel Intensions" the movie 1999, The Girl Next Door 2004, Nike Commercial as well.
It's my ringtone
Mine too
The Verve was easily one of the best live bands of the 1990s.
Loved this one the first time I heard it
You might recognise the song from the film cruel intentions it plays at the end

The music video was shot in Hoxton, London.
liked it, would not skip over this one!!
Do the live version at Glastonbury✌️🏴
Why to make guy feel old I was 17 when this came out, but I remember this from the movie Cruel Intentions and it was on the radio so much
It was number one in uk when Princess Diana died, I was played all the time on the radio
This song only appeared in two advertisements for Nike in 1998 and Vauxhall in 1999. The whole thing was complicated by a long-standing legal dispute with the Rolling Stones.
So no Philadelphia cream cheese😁

Beautiful x🌹
Funny you mentioned Cold Play. They did this song live. Also, this song was used for a bit by Nike. I think they dropped it when the copy rights became an issue.
The movie Cruel Intentions closed with this song
Great, great Song!!!!
The verve not to be confused with the verve pipe, who also has a great song, called the freshman which you guys should check out
Very deep song. Especially like how they used it in the film CRUEL INTENTIONS (1999). Can't recall any RS song in this. Speaking of true 'rip offs' , sample The Kinks' ALL DAY AND ALL OF THE NIGHT (1964) with The Doors' HELLO, I LOVE YOU (1968).
The video was parodied very well in the Football (Soccer) anthem "Vindaloo" By Fat Les.
I like that you 2 haven't heard this before.
This Song is also great as a Hype Up song like say just before going/walking in for a job interview or heading over to Relationship Partners place to Breakup with Him or Her face to face
Anthemic...simply anthemic.......
