Lyrics:
I see double up ahead
Where the riverboat swayed beneath the sun
Is where the river runs red
Like a King who stalks the wings and shoots a dove
And frees an eagle instead
It's more or less the same as the things that you said
I see trouble up the road
Like the things you found in love are by the way
And like to cheat on your soul
Like the best and worst of thoughts that lose control
Before you lie on your bed
It's more or less the same as the things that you said
Anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
Anyway for all the things you said tell me why does the river run red
Anyway for all the things you've seen tell me when will the river run green
And anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
It's more or less the things you fail to say in your way that's your trouble
Like a King who stalks the wings and shoots the moon and the stars
And his double
It's more or less the same as the things that you said
I see trouble up ahead
Where the river boat swayed beneath the sun
Is where the river runs red
I see double - that's my trouble
This song is seriously underrated. Like, criminally underrated.
definitely underrated. dangerously. :)
you is fit
Not by you, obviously.
Amazing, takes me back a few yrs
An absolute banger. Great British music and popular culture 🇬🇧💖
This song made it cool to be Mod again. Simply the best❤
This song has lived rent free in my head for years, well....the chorus anyway!
Decades! It's an absolute classic!
I can`t believe how old this song is now!!I will always love..its a classic..
One of the best bands I've seen live
2024. Who's still listening this masterpiece? Give a like!
This plays in my mind whenever I see trouble up the road.
One of the greatest indie songs ever
Yep
20 years ago, and i was about 17 at that time...great time with such a great music from the britpop!!
By far the best thing about Ocean colour scene is that they were a 90s band but their songs could fit into any decade of music
Highly doubt that this song would ‘fit into’ the 1920s, 30s, 40s etc...
Ryan Walter lol tru
100% mate, this would have definitely not have been the first song of choice in 1066
@@ryan2009cov might have done in Chicago ....
@@ryan2009cov no but it would fit in the 60s 70s or 80s quite happily.
When I first heard this I thought it was one I had missed when growing up in those eras.
This is music not the shit served constantly on the radio 💯💥💥🥇🔥🔥
Could listen to it all day
Still listening in 2020, never gets old
TFI Friday is back, and here we are!!
Yeah lol the theme tune
so glad I was a 90s kid teenager, gotta love the 90s best time to grow up.
Agreed! I used to love watching _TFI Friday_ with this belter at the start. ‘Brit Pop’ (which was mainly ace indie music) and _Trainspotting_ made being a teen in the 90s amazing. Wish I could go back!
love this song
Saw Paul Jones and the Manfreds a week ago on Isle of Wight , where brilliant but also reminded me how much Ocean Colour Scene sound like them, I saw OCS concert when this song was out and remember it as one of best concerts have ever see and have been to many many over the years.
Utter brilliance
OMFG tune. re living my youth
2020 out here, I'm learning this song for guitar
Wise choice.
Same, Trinity Grade 5 exam piece
Grade5 same

My dad called Mr a failure and sent me this wtf
right mug he is
Does anybody know what kind of songs they are on 4:57/4:58 and 5:01 Track? Because I like it! That sounds rocking and epic. What are the names of the songs which are played by this video at the end? Name it.
how we didn't win euro 96 ill never know
unfortunately Gareth Southgate happened :(
Still, at least he received gainful employment in pizza adverts! :)
.... crumbled at the thought of playing the evil hun. One good thing to come out of it. After an England training session now, however knackered, that’s when GS makes them practice pens. When they’re shafted. ONE FINE DAY.
The day we took the train
... Only to find it was cancelled, due to there being yet another bloody strike. :(
A perfect example of what made 'the 60s and 70s so great. This has a good riff, good sound.. but there's just this one riff that goes on and on. They had half of a 3 minute song here. Does the album have a stack of better songs than this on it?
Nope
Could You swap the spice girls for oasis and blur
please welcome shaun ryder
Do i
mwmahaha
I see double..its the drink..maybe trouble..time to think..need more time...eyes blink...for the night that you walk...why is journey home a long talk...anyway..the river dries up when you've run out of luck..😉..but I don't give a f##k..
Just goes to show how a gang of lady boys can blag rock and roll
Best thing to come out of birmingham other than ub40 and black sabbath ozzy osbourne
Ears
eyes and teeth
I fancy a line of coke
Lol
drums. thats all i want to say
'Asparagus', just thought I'd add that there. :)
There’s a song that sounds similar to this on peaky blinders
It probably is this?
It's a sample of this
Music is as stale as 5 week old bread currently , When we see a return to proper bands again !
3:00 into this... hmmmmmmm
