JIMMY NAIL
Still Crazy OST
Lyrics by Ballard / Difford

I had friends against the war
By things they did so well yesterday
They lived their lives without fortune or thrill
With nothing very much to say
Always standing in the same old lines
Moving sideways to the march of time
CHORUS
What might have been
What might have been
A portrait of my life
No fool would say
You live today
Without a will to survive
Cornered now, what can I do
I'm trapped by what might have been
The great big 'if' that hangs around my neck
Has played its part in all my dreams
Always making the bad seem worse
Living my life reversed
CHORUS
I know the call that I can't seem to move
Without a little fall from grace
But now I know when I'm down in this mood
It's only me that I have to face
What might have been, yeah
What might have been
What might have been
Always standing in the same old lines
Moving sideways to the march of time
CHORUS x 2
Happy 69th Birthday Jimmy. Love his voice. Still Crazy is our family's favourite film. The Flame Still Burns was played at my husband's funeral ❤
Such a underrated song / film
Even after all these years the flame still burns
Still burns in 2021
so it does in 2023
Right now 2023. Still standing
Still burns 2024

Brilliant song
The flame still burns in 2021
I so related to this when I first saw the film years ago.
He did music for yrs by the time Still Crazy came out.
I think he was the only actual musician.
I know Jimmy from way back, we grew up in the same city, we were part of the same punk rock scene. He was the first person I ever saw with a mohawk/mohican.
He was a damn good bass player even back in the late 70's, a good songwriter too. I need to hook up with him again and get drunk. :)
Billy Connolly is a Musician too
Jimmy doesn't drink
Wow great song
The best of the best😢
Written by Russ Ballard. .....that's why it's so good.

“What might have been is one my favourite song by Jimmy Nail “
Very underrated film, the music of it was the best.
I had friends against the war
By things they did so well yesterday
They lived their lives without fortune or thrill
With nothing very much to say
Always standing in the same old lines
Moving sideways to the March of time
A portrait of my life
No fool would say
You live today
Without a will to survive
Comered now, what can I do
I’m trapped by what might have been
The great big ‘if’ that hangs around my neck
Has played its part in all my dreams
Always making the bad seem worse
Living my life reversed
A portrait of my life
No fool would say
You live today
Without a will to survive
I know the call that I can’t seem to move
Without a little fall from Grace
But now I know when I’m down in this mood
It’s only me that I have to face
What might have been, yeah
Always standing in the same old lines
Moving sideways to the March of time
A portrait of my life
No fool would say
You live today
Without a will to survive
A portrait of my life
No fool would say
You live today
Without a will to survive
Love this song ❤

Just resaw the movie for the Millionth time. A cornerstone!
This is how you do it. With a beautiful melody and a voice to make you cry. Epic!
Amazing film and the funniest guy on the planet in it sir Billy Connolly
Absolutely love this one amazing song
Wow, what a song, simply amazing! 🎵👌
So sad so sorrowful so beautiful this is for you Simon B.
2021 and I can't decide after the past year if this song has taken on a new meaning for me... probably, yes.
Leg-end Jimmy 🥃 raised listening to you and the film is awesome, band shoulda been real.

It's 2864, and I am still listening to this song [yawn].
I am sorry I only heared about him in 2020. I would have appreciated to love his songs quite earlier...
You haven't lived, his albums are brilliant 👌 same with his acting.

2021 and I still come back.
Make s me cry love it
Same here.love this song
That's the story of my life.

Love this!
Beautiful song. One of my favorite movies.
Doing my thing where i need to go on a run of wee British & Scottish movies & i found this only this year. January 2024. I love that Nail & Spall are reunited in this movie & i've loved Bill Nighy since Hitchhikers guide & sought out his movies as well. Billy Connolly was a cherry on top! 🙌🏽🤍✌🏽🎵🎚🎛🎙🎸🎬
Still Amazing
