Lyrics
You're tired and you say you're angry
You're thankful for this blessed rain
And you think you'd know
But your old friends have to tell you again
Your books taught you all you know
Your tastes and patterns and your TV shows
But you can never follow where they won't let you go
Sometimes it's so hard to know
You want to display your charms
On this bright night
You want to display your charms
On this bright night
You want to display your charms
Over these circus Christmas lights
Your cares your misanthropy
Your distant gaze is missing me
And your jewellery that's what blinded me
From the reality
You want to display your charms
On this bright night
You want to display your charms
On this bright night
You want to display your charms
Over these circus Christmas lights
You want to display your charms
On this bright night
You want to display your charms
On this bright night
You want to display your charms
Over these circus Christmas lights
Over the sea
Over the land and the city
Their voices just compliment each other like nothing else. It's stunning!
Seen them so many times live now , excellent band really are
The late great Graeme Kelling RIP on guitar
Love Deacon Blue, best band ever. Lorraine is phenomenal. Saw them last week in Birmingham, what a brilliant night!
Lorraine Mackintosh.......
Absolutely hypnotic ❤️❤️❤️
This is at the Glasgow SECC in December 1989. My friends were at the show. Growing up in Glasgow in the late 80s Deacon Blue were utterly woven into the human experience as much as food and sleep. I finally got to see them at Glasgow Green on The Big Day in summer 1990. Fantastic.
I was there
A great comment. It must have been an exciting time. It is a shame that The Big Day has not been released on DVD as far as I am aware. Deacon Blue's performance on the day looks good though it is hard to tell from the poor quality footage on You Tube. Ricky Ross' condemnation of Labour ( I am a socialist) for betraying Scotland was entirely apt and it is just as valid today when considering the political class as a whole. I live in England and have to say I am very impressed by the conduct of SNP MPs in parliament; it is clear they know their subjects and they speak with a directness combined with authenticity.
A very happy time
Every time I hear a Deacon Blue song it's my instant favourite - until I hear their next song! Utterly brilliant band!!!
Fantastic
I first heard these on a drunk two weeks 18 to 30s holiday and they played this album daily by the hotel pool bar. Lived and loved it ever since. I love Raintown, this town, wages day, real gone kid, chocate girl, love and regret and so many more. Writing this I am 51, but I remember being 18 and this as clear as ever. People will always say music isn't the same now, but some music and bands just stick with you. This is one of them.
Imho one of greatest songs ever written....omg.
I’ve watched this video SO many time times. Love it so much. I had such a crush on this man at 15 years old and I think I still do!
A great song 🎵 👌
Give the drummer some credit too! He is superb!
Oh, definitely! Inevitably in bands the drummer sometimes gets overlooked but I love Dougie's drumming, Absolutely brilliant. I'd say he's one of my favourite drummers, but the rest of the band are pretty great too!
He was a few years younger than the rest of the band and relatively new to professional music when suddenly thrust into the limelight with Deacon Blue, which makes his achievement all the more impressive. He seems very affable on the few occasions I have seen him on programmes broadcast in England from Scotland. All of the band were proficient musicians in backing Ricky and Lorraine's vocals. I am watching the live concert on the DVD and it is amazing. Very powerful and emotional.
Circus lights, my favourite Deacon Blue song. Back to the days in 89’ when I fell in love 😍
The instrumental intro to this is unreal !
MrMark2007 It's brilliant. When I listen to tracks like this I wonder why Deacon Blue didn't have more success. It's good to see they're still around though, 30 years after they formed.
Agreed, it is very powerful and unique- never heard anything else like it before or since.
I love this song circus lights from deacon blue Ricky Ross sings it so good and Lorraine makes the crowd jump up and down with her wild dancing and when she joins the singing her voice is so phenomenal to listen to it gets the hairs standing on your neck well done both of you Lorraine you are awesome keep it up hot chick I have been at the bottom of castle hill which is on the way up Edinburgh castle when you have been in concerts you are both amazing singers keep up the good work from mr Colin Corcoran high street royal mile Edinburgh 👍🏻🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴👍🏻
I was there it was amazing
Salt and vinegar , peaches and cream , bread and butter, knife and fork, fish and chips , hugs and kisses , sugar and spice . Ricky and Lorraine ❤️❤️
True excellence is always underrated.......
I was there loved it xxxx
What an awesome song. What an awesome performance.
One of the best gigs I ever went to. RIP Graeme Kelling.
It was amazing
I was there to.... still get goosebumps 🏴🤛
Excellent, jeez i forgot how good this track really is ........... roll back the years
Beautiful, uplifting and moving all in one. DB are one of the finest bands of the last forty years. This affects me just as much in 2017 as it did on first listen in the summer of 1989. I saw them at Leicester de Montfort Hall in May 1989 but I wish I had been at the SECC concert(s).
80s Music I couldn’t agree more. The spring and summer of 89 were the most emotional, awesome days of my late teens. I was 18 and adored ‘when the world knows your name’
My first love and I would sit in her room listening to music talking for hours
Pompey Guildhall next Monday and Tuesday there gigging Nov 2021. Can't wait.
So much energy...
Unbeatable...
I love Deacon blue
I love all songs of Deacon blue
Absolute brilliant band
Saw them in Leeds and Manchester in late 2021, this song was toned down to be more like a Ballard.. still Fcking AMAZING!
Truly awesome live version
The best song ever from Deacon Blue
Mine too brings back so many memories from the summer of 1989
Man I love this concert..it is utterly Superb from start to finish...wish I could have been in that crowd..the energy is unreal.
Every concert creates the same energy and vibe
Such a special band ...
I was at the AO in Manchester last year (Oct 6th 2023) ...
I've still not come down
Absolutely love this band
I remember seeing this tour omg amazing. Please can we go back to those days. I loved the energy RR & LM had. I loved Graeme. RIP gorgeous man. Ricky's smile at the end melts my heart. Amazing group and so underrated.
Such a nice comment.
Ricky's smile at the end? Never really thought about it in detail before. Thank you. In a world where egocentric turds are abundant, his smile is...heartwarming.
Lorraine always so sweet...great song gang.
Miyuki Shijisha Lorraine is sweet! I love her voice and her passion and energy on stage.
Just a magic performance, it all fits.
Love from Australia, was blessed enough to see this amazing crew at the Dee Why Hotel in July 1989 in front of only 1000 people. I have seen hundreds of gigs over many years, both big and small - some the biggest bands on the planet. The quality of this crew's performance was mesmerizing. Changed the course of my musical tastes.This song takes the cake☺☺☺☺☺☺☺
The Ewen's virtuosity here is unreal.
Perpetually awesome.
Deacon blue 2019 forever..saludos desde peru ..😎😎😎
One of the greatest bands to come out of the 80s.Why they were not bigger in the USA I will never know.
Probably the best live performance I have ever seen. Ricky and Lorraine and the band magical timeless🏴☀️💛
Seen them about 30 times live over the years
Thank you my son. Masturbate twice, and say five Hail Marys.

So... the live version is not on the Album... bummer
Mark Ziko Sadly not. It should be! I prefer this over the album version. The original piano and vocal demo of this track was also better than the album version.
I am often disappointed when a live recording exposes the shortcomings of artists that really can't cut it when away from the studio (or are propped up by the electronic crutch of Autotune etc.)
Circus Lights has always been a favourite of mine and credit is due to everyone involved (including the sound dudes and dudettes) for this utterly amazing version.
Lorraine seems a bit enthusiastically pissed-up, but hey, far preferable to a dumbass mancunian who is absolutely static in a puffa jacket with arms behind their back.
Thanks, Deacon Blue
Highly unlikely in the case of your comment about Lorraine McIntosh. But I agree about the ridiculousness of the nineties trend for pop stars wearing outdoor clothing on stage. So cringeworthy and a sign of stupidity, naturally.
@@eightiesmusic1984 Yup, "unlikely", but I did write "seems". She just loves her job. And if she was inebriated, she would probably fall over putting that much energy in to her performance. You've most likely guessed, but my comment was a strange way of praising her stage-presence 🙂.
Why does Dougie always look like he is about to change out a transmission after the. show?
My fav ever Deacon Blue song
1 Circus Lights
2 Your Swaying arms
3 Dignity
can you explain why? I love the mysterious intro. The percussive bass. The joyous tone. The excellent vocals. It always lifts my spirits.
TOWN TO BE BLAMED,LOADED,PEACE AND JOBS AND FREEDOM,CIRCUS LIGHTS,DIGNITY
@@JohnPreston888 I think it's just the uplifting feeling I get listening to that amazing haunting intro. The chorus is brilliant, amazing.
Good tune, but the simple fact remains that 16bluesherbert90 is the most adorable and beautiful of all the women ❤.
