I love this bloke, Both Elbow and solo, lovely lyrics and help keep a bloke sane. x
I think this is one of the best love songs ever written. just stunning....
Guy and his own music and the Band Elbow are one of my favourites!
Absolutely stunning. Such beautiful lyrics. Really don't think Guy gets enough credit for what a stellar lyricist he is. Some of his lines are up there with Leonard Cohen and Dylan. The first line of this song alone just sends shivers down my spine: "In the hills it's an overcoat colder ... "

+Dean Muscat Hi I am Italian and I really like Garvey and Elbow and for what I can understand his lyrics are incredible. Sometimes even hard to fully comprehend. I have read your comment on the first line: can you please tell me why you find it so great? To my Italian ears I got the meaning that on a hil you a have colder coat. But maybe in English it means something different and surely deeper. Thanks for your reply
+Gabriel Tripaldi I think what they were trying to say is that Guy is able to express sensations, such as the cold, in a more beautiful and eloquent manner, if this helps at all? Meaning, after all, is open to all sorts of interpretation
Oh he does, critics know how amazingly talented he is lyrically. one of the best for sure.
R u ffffing deaf? It's crap
He's got a big heart.
mattvolcom76 He’s not afraid to show emotion yes! He makes himself very vulnerable by doing that.
Simply a visionary.
brilliant lyricist,brilliant voice and beautiful song cant wait to see Elbow back in NEW ZEALAND
Can't believe I've discovered this so late...shiver-inducing. So gorgeous xx
Freya Stokoe You know he sings for the band Elbow? Give them a listen. Takes listening to them more than once to appreciate
such a wonderful songwriter. Love this song.
+VinylCollector James Have u pre order the album? Amazon offered the signed vinyl limited edition.
+MIC2-MusicImage2Critic “The Critic” By: ZyeZhe yeah I ordered the LP and CD from his website.
+VinylCollector James Nice. Lenticular sleeves looks cool. But I ordered mine at amazon (signed vinyl).
+MIC2-MusicImage2Critic “The Critic” By: ZyeZhe check out my channel for a video on my Elbow collection. Thanks
VinylCollector James I’m going to look at it right now
Amazing. My Favorite Track from the Album
Angel's Daily Update i just got it in the mail. I have bought all their eps. Not one stolen. A devoted fan. The live bootlegs are good. Those I will steal!
What an absolute tune. Can't wait to hear the whole thing!
happy birthday, Garv!
always and forever, I'll love this...
Tout simplement une pure merveille. Quelle voix, je l'adore. MAGNIFIQUE!
maeva le heurt moi aussi💓
This is so lovely :) :) :) :) :) :)
Will go down as one of the eras best lyricists. Equally talented bandmates.
I've just listened to the whole album. Superb!
Really nice slow song; helps me relax. Thanks so much Guy!!!!
Wow. I just stumbled upon you accidentally (i.e. VEVO) but, holy crap, I am so glad I did. Thank you, sir.
Trevor Wallace You’ve heard of the uk famous band his in, right ? Elbow
Beautiful song.
He's got that knack of writing songs that go for the emotional juggler. This is up there with Scattered Black and Whites for me. I prefer his heavy and upbeat stuff but can't deny this is a sweet sweet song.
JacqAlb83 I just love Towercrane driver live at the o2 in London or at men in Manchester. The best is when he sings it at the award ceremony in 2008 when Elbow won the mercury. It’s on you tube. Given what it’s about it’ll break your heart
Jugular
@@andrewgraham5080 Sorry Sir. I’ll make sure I’m not late for class on Monday 🙄
@@micktmusic make sure that emotional juggler doesn't hurl his balls at you on the way there.
@@markdudley7118 Hahahahahahahahaha
Cool song
good song
Linda música... aki no sofá relaxando com um som desses... ahhhhhhh
Really lovely
Yet another corker from Mr. Garvey. Looking forward to the album! Not long now!
Anthony Ford what do you think of Little fictions? I’m not a fan of it that much. But the 3 songs they chose to do live are good!
In the hills it's an overcoat colder
Come by, see me
If big things, life things, are waves at your door
Come by, see me
Come grab a sleep on my floor
No more courting the squall
You're out with a friend in the capital
I'm a thousand leagues under the sea
You're hovering worriedly over your eggs
And I'm pondering trees
I'm wandering long, and I'm pondering trees
For you and me
In the hills it's an overcoat colder
Come by, see me
If big things, life things, are waves at your door
Come by, see me
Come grab a sleep on my floor
No more courting the squall
Oh, you're out with a friend in the capital
I'm a thousand leagues under the sea
You're hovering worriedly over your eggs
And I'm pondering trees
I'm wandering long, and I'm pondering trees
For you and me
I'm the son of a saint and a leader of men
And I'm neither of them, but I'm yours
I'll build us a house out of wrestlerock shale
With some everyday windows
An anytime roof
And I'll open the doors
To you and yours
Just pondering trees
For you and me
Ooh, that was powerful. And soulful. Many thanks Guy, and the band all! Cheers.
Lyrics
In the hills it's an overcoat colder

No more courting the squall
You're out with a friend in the capital
I'm a thousand leagues under the sea
You're hovering worriedly over your eggs
And I'm pondering trees
I'm wandering long, and I'm pondering trees
For you and me
In the hills it's an overcoat colder
Come by, see me
If big things, life things, are waves at your door
Come by, see me
Come grab a sleep on my floor
No more courting the squall
Oh, you're out with a friend in the capital
I'm a thousand leagues under the sea
You're hovering worriedly over your eggs
And I'm pondering trees
I'm wandering long, and I'm pondering trees

Just pondering trees
For you and me
Love it.
brilliant
Absolute magic!
Stop Islam invading uk Silent jihad you bigot with that name. Disgusting. They need help. If the uk were being attacked and you had a family in danger of dying or starving what are you going to do? “Oh let’s go somewhere to change their religion and ruin their white supreme blood and will do that in secret”. You don’t know that there were Crusades in the name of Christ? That’s just as bad as isis. The West attacked the Muslim world. So just like jihad.
The best of the solo material I have heard so far from Guy. Anyone know if there is any significance to his tour dates is Europe being most often a month apart and on the 12 of each month?
Lo descubro por casualidad. Hermoso sonido.
He's full of old manc tales - all fibs
🌝 beautiful 😍🙈🙈
Druids alive!
What song is the chorus melody borrowed from? This is bugging me!!
....pondering trees,
Stop Islam invading uk Silent jihad OMG. You are really clueless. You like Guy Garvey but you don’t know that he’s written songs against your kind of people bababaaaaah
Adam haha. So weird that the 2 of you don’t know that he is disgusted with you lot
tom hardy is so cool
recommend it to insomniacs.
ted martin hmmmm, I would say that’s true, but because it’s soothing. He was born with a special set of vocal cords and he knows how to use them. You’re just not old enough or will never know if a tune is good or not. Tell me who the father of rock and roll is and where he grew up, without google
This is what Coldplay would sound like...if they were good
I don't like their later stuff granted, but i think their first 2 albums are great. And they deserve credit for making music at all. I never wrote a song, but they have wrote albums. Good people and good at what they do.
He looks miserable singing it...and its understandable
They call him the lifeless man for a reason.
WHO calls him the lifeless man? Apart from you. Tosspot.
@Justification Joe What is a lifeless man? Whatever it is it’s criticism. But I don’t get it. And you have poor syntax.
a bit boring. good lyrics
Guy Garvey could send a man to sleep at ten paces... boring soporific drivel from a hybrid of johnny vegas and ricky gervais .. and about as funny as either of them arent.... an embarassment to Manchester.. through those curtains out .. and him with them..
Stick to Oasis pal!
smile much dude?
it's tedious, why so much airplay? Guy garvey's boring unimaginative solo work has completely ruined elbow for me...
AltBren I think he’s interested in r & b and wants to do that kind of work. I hope it really hasn’t ruined your appreciation of Elbow
