Sneaked off to see them at the Academy in Manchester when I was 15, met him afterwards, nicest bloke ever, had all the time in the world for us, even though we were 15, drunk, and daft. Even bought the beers. Top bloke, top band.
The wedding present are proper awesome , they have such a unique sound that captures a time and makes you nostalgic when you here these old songs but they still sounds fresh & cool today , massive influence & trail blazers for bands such as Artic monkeys etc etc and David Gedge was a reet cool bastard .. class
This song is amazing. Fabulous. The transition in the middle of the song add a tons of emotion and energy. No chance to stay still.I love them. Im in love with their guitar sound, so fresh, so strong, not copied since than and cannot be repeted. And better not to do it.
Fab to hear a proper leeds accent, I didn't really listen to these when I was a kid I was too busy raving so all I wanted was dance music but I'm enjoying checking out what I missed as a teenager.
1992: the beginning of the end of a splendid love. Thought 1993 door was definitely closed. 20 years later a slight light shined through the lock: we never loose a true love keys?

Take a look at this note I can't throw it away No please read it It's something she wrote Just to ruin my day Now do you understand?! Are you sure you want to hear? Well, she stormed out of the flat No, I don't care It's not her I miss She was always doing that Oh she can stay there But you should've seen the smile When she said "Should I go... Should I walk out?" We sat for a while I didn't say yes or no But we'd just run out of time No, I'm sure that she meant Every word that she said But there are no more Excuses to invent Again and again Just a closed door And we couldn't go on And no one's to blame These things happen I didn't need anyone Until the day that you came And I looked in your eyes When I saw you When I saw you When I saw you When I saw you It's over, it's over, it's over, yes it's over Now come play with me It's over, it's over, it's over, yes it's over Now come play with me It's over, it's over, it's over, yes it's over Now come play with me It's over, it's over, it's over, yes it's over Now come play with me
I met Dave,but was truly too overawed. He offered me a pint. All I could do was nod,open mouthed. Hey must've thought I was a lunatic. There best ever after 'Take me".
IT'S Over,yes it's over,it's over,yes it's over,now come play with me? It's over,oh it's over,it's over,yes it's over.. It's over,yes it's over,come play with me.
this song blew me away when i first heard it in 1992

I bought all their singles in the year they sent one out every month. Loved them
1992! BBC4 has just finished airing every Top of the Pops from 1992 and they appeared a number of times.
I drove my stupid car 1800kms from Halifax to Ottawa Canada to see him perform; I'd drive twice that in a heartbeat...
Video shot at the old Church Hall, Victor Street , Bishophill, York. A dance school run by Dennis and Rita Cole who also appear in the video.
The finest songwriter of my generation
Dave Gedge is a definite poet as well as leading for one of the best band's ever.
So true, absolute beautiful song writer
There is nobody on the planet that understands guitar discord like the Present. Absofuckinglutly nobody.
Love the build up to 2:38 . After that point it's hairs on the back of the neck standing up & goosebumps all the way.

Now... You... Under - stand.....?
2.38 one of the all time great transitions.
tigerboy1966
Cudn't agree more , fab band , miss Gedges ' distinctive vocals and those ' jangling ' guitars. Why weren't they mega ???
tigerboy1966
Only 39k Views - are people mad ?????
This is a local dance for local people!
@@jtp5919 They're still jangling, yeah?
that transition made me d**n happy!
"we sat for a while, I didn't say yes or no, we just ran out of time" My favourite lyrics. Simple yet all encompassing
Encompassing, I like that...
Amazing track and never age's
That's a very youthful Dave Gedge is that. Top chap, top song writer and so under rated/under the radar.
“The boy Gedge has written some of the best love songs of the rock'n'roll era - you may dispute this, but I'm right and you're wrong.”
A true modern day Cole Porter...
This song is amazing. Fabulous. The transition in the middle of the song add a tons of emotion and energy. No chance to stay still.I love them. Im in love with their guitar sound, so fresh, so strong, not copied since than and cannot be repeted. And better not to do it.
A local dance for local people!!!!
Paul Dorrington what a riff, made my 1992...
The greatest band ever.

David never looks fully comfortable without his guitar

Fab to hear a proper leeds accent, I didn't really listen to these when I was a kid I was too busy raving so all I wanted was dance music but I'm enjoying checking out what I missed as a teenager.
Thing is mate his accent is part Manc where he's was born. He supports Man U hence George Best LP
Oh well no one's perfect lol
Born in Yorkshire but grew up in Manchester actually.
Born in South Africa, as it happens!

Dave,when I saw you you asked me if I wanted a pint,sorry,I wasn't ignorant,just stunned!
Take a look at this note
I can't throw it away
No please read it
It's something she wrote
Just to ruin my day
Now do you understand?!
Are you sure you want to hear?
Well, she stormed out of the flat
No, I don't care
It's not her I miss
She was always doing that
Oh she can stay there
But you should've seen the smile
When she said "Should I go...
Should I walk out?"
We sat for a while
I didn't say yes or no
But we'd just run out of time
No, I'm sure that she meant
Every word that she said
But there are no more
Excuses to invent
Again and again
Just a closed door
And we couldn't go on
And no one's to blame
These things happen
I didn't need anyone
Until the day that you came
And I looked in your eyes
When I saw you
When I saw you
When I saw you
When I saw you
It's over, it's over, it's over, yes it's over
Now come play with me
It's over, it's over, it's over, yes it's over
Now come play with me
It's over, it's over, it's over, yes it's over
Now come play with me
It's over, it's over, it's over, yes it's over
Now come play with me
tigershuffle1 thanks for that.take me still my favourite for my funeral.
Thanks mate.... beautiful
I met Dave,but was truly too overawed. He offered me a pint. All I could do was nod,open mouthed. Hey must've thought I was a lunatic. There best ever after 'Take me".
Same - we went into a gig last year and there he was at their t-shirt stand. We just froze, didn't even acknowledge he was there.
Thanks.
I have also never gotten over anything that ever happened to me
The look of Gedge.
1.30-34. "This is a local dance for local people Tubbs".
This came out when I was breaking up from the biggest love of my life and I'm sure she didn't mean any word that she said,love you.
IT'S Over,yes it's over,it's over,yes it's over,now come play with me? It's over,oh it's over,it's over,yes it's over.. It's over,yes it's over,come play with me.
2.14.. That is Reece Shearsmith.

Who wouldn't have George Best on their cover!?
