I had a very unconventional discovery of this band years ago and then ended up spending some time w/ them on tour. Interesting guys… and their crew! I love the memories.
Just saw them a day ago and damn it was amazing, especially this song. They were like "Thanks for sticking with us for 20 years" and i was like man I'm 14 new generations are still kinda listening!
Hell yeah man, 19 here and ive never met anyone who listens to them in real life. Its my parents favorite band so i grew up on this and i wish more people our age listened to them
@@rmbassett58 I'm 42 and that's the best thing I read today. If anything besides Gomez can bond us, may the following be it: keep your mind and heart at a good place.
So many incredible experiences and memories to this album. Saw them live in Auckland, New Zealand many moons ago - epic live. Timeless songs. Thank you.
I recall at the time, their brilliance did not go unnoticed. By the British music press. Or the British public. They were discovered. And fully appreciated. At the time. It appears they were not hugely known outside of the UK. But for younger people who have listened to them thru their parents or have just discovered them. Gomez had enormous success and respect in the UK. Which many will know is hard to get. The British are fussy. And wisely picky about who deserves admiration in music. Gomez were another example of a huge amount of music genius that came from the North of England at the time. It was hard for Northern bands to get success in the South (London) But Gomez did it. Easily.
You're absolutely correct, but they very quickly faded out of the British consciousness too, by the time their 3rd album came out they were largely forgotten about by everyone who wasn't a hardcore fan.... they released countless brilliant albums since which have mostly gone unnoticed, although some TV syndications seem to have given them a backdoor success into the US scene, and they've always been a tremendous live touring act.
I remember buying this album on the strength of this song, putting it in the CD player on the ride back to college and just being really disappointed. Maybe listened to three or four songs. After having it a few weeks without playing it again I was home with some weed and decided to give it another listen. I was blown away by both the intricacy and minimalism of what I heard. So much going on in these songs that I just didn’t hear without a pair of headphones and bowl of green. That night changed my musical tastes forever. I love this album so much it I had the cover art by Reggie Pedro (RIP) put on the grooms cake at my wedding. If you’ve never listened to this album while high, I beg you to do so. And any of those first three albums, really.
this & the Eels’ Last Stop This Town were a couple of the first videos I ever watched, finally reconnected with this song and I love it even more than the first go round. Thankss Gomez!!
How is this group not as big as take that? Seriously!!! Like Cooper temple clause...fukin genius musicians! ...its just amazing music, this album will always be one of my favourite albums of all time...and im a fukin hip hop nerd x
Their music was always fairly chilleed and relaxing kinda like music for afterparties or chilling in the sun. Its not the kind of music that fills concerts or stadiums.
@@Glenuig But dont think their concert's are not great. I just went to their concert in Dublin October of last year and it was one of the best concerts ive ever been too.

I saw Gomez live , this track brings back so many great memories. Everyone was full of doves and loads of love.
Doves, mitzibishis, smiley faces, omegas, speckled,
I have just been transported back to the 90s and I am loving every minute 😍
Without a doubt, one of the best bands of the 90s.
I always come back for seconds.
I am taking a trip down memory lane, saw these guys live - they have so many good tunes.
One of my favourite bands but I thought they were a bit disappointing live tbh?
I'm terribly jealous!!! I'd LOVE to see them live
I saw them live at cardiff university. 22 years ago. 22 years. Oh god
@@davidhill3595 You had to bring up how ancient we all feel - good times though, the late 90s
@@shaunm666 They were on the night I saw then, it was indoor (1000), could has been the venue, maybe they got better.

this album was my sound track for the summer of 98! f'in love this band!!!!

I like the “many moons ago”!
The coolest, cruisiest, laid-back shuffle song that ever there was.

I like the way you think!
I had forgotten just how much I loved this song. And the band as well, for that matter.
Best band ever I've been a Gomez fan for years
There's nothing better than a little slice of well crafted craziness.
Love Gomez. Outstanding live.
Still listening in 2017...GREAT ALBUM!!
Carl Brown greetings from the future, where we are still listening
Still at it
This is one of my favs of all time.........totally underrated
seems like yesterday me and my buddies were high as kites, cruising the streets of Sheffield with the CD of Bring it On at full volume. that was 2001
Great album to mong out with the lads to.
Fkn hippy haha
I only just noticed the reggae groove on this tune. Awesome, I love Gomez. My favourite band when I was at college.
It angers me that when I search 'Gomez' Selena Gomez shows up. So incredibly underrated!
Read my mind stole my thunder 😀👍
Hahaha just happened to me looking for their radio one sessions back in the day
I had the exact same thought my friend. Looking for Gomez live recordings, Selena Gomez was all over the place. So sad
Maybe if they could have keep making albums as good as bring it on they'd have kept killing it.
Love them! Confused why they have not broken through.
this & the Eels’ Last Stop This Town were a couple of the first videos I ever watched, finally reconnected with this song and I love it even more than the first go round. Thankss Gomez!!
Still perfectly fresh today as the day it was released. That's what makes Gomez great.
"He only grows"❤❤❤🌲
Havent heard this song in YEARS. Found the title scrawled in a notebook from 9th grade(Im 27 now), just had to hear it again :) Thanks for posting!
Saw Ben Ottewell live today at Focus Wales, been a huge Gomez fan for a while, This music video is a masterpiece!
Just went back in time, gave so many good memories to that!!
2021 and still listening
💜✌️💜
You can't get music like this these days the magic has gone
True that
This brings back so many memories superb cheers for posting!!!!!!
Amazing band, great tunes and fantastic 'live'
If their not great live they ain't worth shibbidy-dip!
Cant understand why they r not known by all of the UK.....THEY R AMAZING
this is like an old friend
Love UA-cam and VEVO. They both bring me home ❤
So cool, so creative. Love it!
i just searched gomez for selena and i came here. glad i did.
LOVE THIS
Great tune!
Love em... 👌
I love your songs.
Absolutely brilliant... I feel like going and getting arrested, just so I can sing this in the cell x bet the plod would be singing it on the way home
Brilliant tune
👏👏👏🙌🙌love it
"He only grows for guys he knows. And me" good vibes.
2019 still jammin
I used to listen to this all the time when playing driver when it just came out. Excellent song
Driver and Gomez go together like cheese and wine...you've just solved my Sunday afternoon boredom. Thanks.
de mis bandas favoritas...
Still watching and listening to music that gets it in 2023☘️
Thank you!
Best band in the world!
Me in 2024,good stuff.
Great times....
Ridiculously under-rated band.
How is this group not as big as take that? Seriously!!! Like Cooper temple clause...fukin genius musicians! ...its just amazing music, this album will always be one of my favourite albums of all time...and im a fukin hip hop nerd x
so cool.
Lovely to see Paul Dano on bass...
very very nice! :-)
That looked like so much fun.
Great band
awesome
The song that got me addicted to all things Gomezza back in 1997...
1998
Gotta love that bass
The song is obviously great but the video is totally brilliant in its own right.
Great tune and this video is pretty funny :)
Who’s still listening in 2014
Got a haircut yesterday 😁✌️♥️
Gosh they looked so young back then and I used to think they looked old!
This is a fucking great song
indeed
This song is boss
Absolutely!
All the songs this band sings are good
Not underrated, they just didn't (want to) sell their souls. Easy as..
be commercial basically?
explain..
Their first album is my favourite by far.
Cool and underrated.
Fun track
These guys are welsh right? I sort of remember them… somewhere distant .. from my childhood…good song.
Love this shizz
one of the most underated bands around
Absolutely, I love them.
the chorus sounds similar to "mary in the mystery world" by the electric boys.
kewl
Well alright. So cool.
I am! What is the issue? Music is timeless. Not only timeless but extremely subjective too!
I’m gonna get myself, I’m gonna get myself, I’m gonna get myself arrested.
Another weird video from this band.... but I like this song too, and I like that all the guys sing... cool!
These guys are so underrated.....but why?!
Their music was always fairly chilleed and relaxing kinda like music for afterparties or chilling in the sun. Its not the kind of music that fills concerts or stadiums.
Need to ask those who "rate". Criminal in my opinion.
They are not underrated.
@@Glenuig But dont think their concert's are not great. I just went to their concert in Dublin October of last year and it was one of the best concerts ive ever been too.
People like coldplay and voted for the Nazis.. you cant trust people
Current mood
I want my damned Gomez CDs back Beaver or John, whoever stole em!
❤
very very clever band . er very Original ..
Who's still listening and watching in 2019?
I saw them live last weekend!
I saw Ben doing a solo gig yesterday. He's still got an amazing voice.
Me!
james the awesome uh me!
ofc
Yeah that is such a severe injustice. Gomez is so gifted.
reminds me of driving round in a bmw pills thrills and spills , good times
Gomez singer Ben Ottewell is on stage Friday night at London Unhinged Festival if you guys are around!
Utter fuckin class.....simple.
does the book in the key to freedom advert simply say "write a book on how to annoy the clarence off someones mink??"
o my gud god i so love this, 22 likes!!! ??
I plead the thoughts..and test him..x..officially..
All time greatest albums ever made. Check out California. My favorite song
It's shameful. Been a fan for over 20 years. They should have been huge.
Get My Elf Arrested - tweak lyrics, sleigh bells, boom - Christmas number 1 👍🏻
Got shit haircut, caught nicking stuff from Boots, gonna get my Elf arrested 😄
this track reminds me of midori shooters
Josef, Elisabeth und Josef jr. sind der Meinung: Das ist Spitze!
@pro891630 I know! Same with Whipping Piccadilly. They were so cool and just about to take over the world.

Yes, I am
Got a haircut, got a silver tooth
Gonna get myself arrested
Got some friends in my BMW
Tryin' to get themselves arrested
He only grows for guys he knows and me
He only grows for guys he knows and me
