    Lloyd Cole was and still is a magical vocalist and an amazing song writer. Simply timeless, I’m now 61 and his music still moves me !

    My Ex and I loved this song and the album formed the soundtrack to our early days...17 years later we grew apart and I find myself coming back here in 2020 to listen as I sit writing a remembrance card for his funeral on Monday 🖤 Heartbroken but smiling through my sorrow 🖤

    Rattlesnakes LP album was the first album I bought when I was a teenager. Yet Forest fire was the only song I had heard on radio/tv (it was a big hit in the charts), and it was really a haunting song. I still know it by heart...
    And then I've discovered the whole album : woaw !!!! ... Still one of my favorite (all the songs are really very good!)... I spent hours listening to it... Then also bought it as a CD...But still keep preciously my LP album I still cherish!
    Today in 2024 I still listen to it with the same emotion : that's really a feel-good album!
    Many many Thanks to Lloyd Cole and The Commotions for that amazing album! ❤❤❤
    PS : to those who discover this song today : listen to it using good headphones (not with your phone ) if you want to enjoy the sound as it deserves.

      Yes, fantastic writer, they were so good. I could cry listening to this, what I would give to go back, days filled with whatever job you wanted, nights filled with great music, weekends started on a Thursday night and ended on Monday mornings, a night out with a tenner included a Chinese or a kebab and a taxi home. Men were men even when they wore makeup, women were women, children free to be children. We thought the greatest threat to our country was thousands of miles away, not in our own parliament, wth went wrong 😢

      Circa summer 1984. In October I saw The Smiths in Leisure Land, Galway, supported by James. Those we're the days! Best gig I ever saw until 10cc this year in Dublin. PS Love the gorgeous guitar riff at the end.

    I cannot possibly be held responsible for returning to my love for 80’s music, when artists like “Lloyd Cole and the Commotions” have made such beautiful memory evoking and goosebump inducing sounds.

    Since I was 13 years old, I considerated this as the best love song ever written, just a sublime peace of Art. And Lloyd Cole was my idol: the most beautiful man and best singer ever. This was the band I loved mostly .

    I bought Rattlesnakes when I was 15 back in 1985, when everyone else was listening to Michael Jackson and Madonna[!] It sounds as good now as it did back then -timeless. This is a great clip; classy, sentimental and arty and befitting the music. Lloyd Cole is still making good music and is a pleasure to see live. Deserves 1 million + views but, hey, we can't all have great taste ;)

    Una de las mejores canciones compuestas en Gran Bretaña en la década de los 80. La voz, el magnestismo, el carisma, la belleza y la vulnerabilidad de Lloyd Cole pasaron a la historia de la música inglesa con este tema inolvidable.
