#HothouseFlowers #ICanSeeClearlyNow #Home
In 2017, I had life saving surgery. I was house bound for weeks. My sister got me set up with an Amazon Prime account so I could binge some shows.
I sat down and watched the first episode of Grand Tour as I loved Top Gear. When this song started, tears came to my eyes and I knew while I had a long road ahead, I was going to be ok.
Peace to all, have an awesome day.
Ive just suffered 4 years of crippling Long Codid that has had me bed ridden and last week we seem to have found an almost miracle cure for me. I no longer process salt - we dont know why yet - my sodium level is normal but its not available but 5g of sodium citrate a day and I am NORMAL.
Im off to the city centre for the first time in years in about half an hour. I FEEL GREAT. Hang in there mate - you will get through it...!!!
This song and the opening scene of The Grand Tour might just be the most beautiful piece of television I've ever seen. And, as a former full-time TV critic, I've seen one helluva lot.
I was driving when this song was playing on the radio. I turned it up really loud to feel like Jeremy Clarkson. This song is so good.
like that
I starting to like it the grand tour with a bang
although Mr Clarkson is a compleat doughbag.
I love the trio of the Grand Tour❤️
Who else?
Yes!
Obvi
One of the most emotional intro...
Yes
Best guys ever
Grand Tour brought me here...
Me too
Me too!
Me too!!
Me too
Idem
The trio on the desert driving in a custom *Mustang*
*Clarkson* in a *Blue Galpin Rocket 725hp*
*Hammond* in a *Red Shelby GT350R*
*May* in a *White 2016 Roush Mustang Stage 3*
Every car nut's favorite three numpties
Well that, gave me hell of a goosebumps.
There all amazing for a camaro fanboy this song it great bring the car community after that bs that they call new top gear
Just 1 fantastic version of a great song
@@RedJLP everyone remembers that
You cant listen to this without getting chills down your back .. lovely track .. especially on Vinyl .. i bought this when it was first released , loved how GT used it to open their show👏
Probably one of greatest cover versions of any song ever. Gets better the louder you play it!
Really I want it scrubbed from the internet. These guys ARE really talented tho'.
Joe cocker
i saw Liam a few yrs back, never knew who he was, great songs & stories.what a talented dude & just a great person too!
This song feels like it’s just asking to be played loudly
My goosebumps have goosebumps! CLARKSON..!!!
Im getting teary eyed and goosebumps by just thinking of the trio getting together
Me too.love the cover in awe of GT opening scene three buddies starting a new venture. What better way to stick it to the BBC.
Ive been without a car for 4 years, my own car that is, and tomorrow that is going to change, and thinking about that, that feeling of sublimity alone, fuels me in the same way this song does, which is why when im driving it home this is the song im going to be playing, and to just imagine it, i cant help but let out tears of joy. Thank you grand tour, for giving me that notion to feel it, as i feel every bit of passion for cars and motorsports.
what car did you buy now?
@@stolenchaser Roddy bought a Kia Soul 2014
I'm old school. Not comfortable with most songs post the 90s, but these guys have given this song a different shade. And, a good one too. Love from India.
"GT" comes to my mind whenever I hear this song.
u need to get out more!
The grand tour is the best show ever made
RIP Johnny Nash. This is my favourite version of the song you brought to the world.
One of the best covers I've ever heard.
top of the pops
Who sang the orginal?
@@randomadskipper3855 Johnny Nash i believe
The Grand Tour :-D :-D
The Grand Tour led me to this masterpiece.
This is the REALLY epic sax solo... and yes... i am here because i love the grand tour too
Omg thanks Clarkson for the best cover version ever
This cover came out in 1990 and has nothing to do with Clarkson!
@@DaveAndBeth1978 And how many people knew that before the Grand Tour?
Enough to take the single into the Top 40 in 1990
@@DaveAndBeth1978 You mean when most Millenials hadn't even been born yet ...?
I'm sorry, I didn't realise Millennials made up a majority or were somehow more "important" than those who came before?!
All of us are here because of Grand Tour ... great job James Clarkson
NO. SOME OF US ARE HERE BECAUSE WE LIKE JOHNNY NASH'S SONG.
I'm not. I don't know what tf you're on about.
New TV Contract
New Show
Same old shenanigans 😇
How's this for a week many years ago. Paul McCartney and Wings that hubby wanted to see. Few days later, Neville Brothers that hubby wanted to see. Finally, Hot house Flowers that I wanted to see, (in Wollongong), and to this day, still one of the best and most exciting shows my hubby agrees it was.
GREAT ADAPTION, GREAT BAND. Thank you for one of the best musical nights ever!!!
Hothouse Flowers are just PHENOMENAL live
Thank You Jezza Hamster and Captain Slow for Making our lives Joyful! ❣️
🎉🎉🎉
This rendition just brings a smile to my face
Seen these guy's in 1991 in Australia, absolutely unbelievable, still remember it to this day
I saw them too - Bruce Stadium Canberra supporting Dire Straits. Awesome
I first saw HHF live in late 1991 in Canberra, Australia where they supported Dire Straits. It was miserable cold wet weather. Pouring down, soaking wet and near frozen - we loved it. Seeing, hearing, feeling this song in that weather was super. I loved the Home album and it rightfully was #1 in Oz! Awesome and they were the support act! Having just returned from o/s with army a week earlier, it was great to have HHF at home!
Still one of Ireland's best🇮🇪
I saw them perform this in 1988. Great live band !!! Song never gets old!!
I seem them in 92 in Bean Town fuckin rapa
Most amazing version of this song ❤
The greatest intro to any song ever, especially the longer album version. Simply lovely. 😍
The definitive version of this song. Haven’t seen Grand Tour but I can imagine Clarkson charging across a desert with this blaring. Wouldn’t mind doing that myself.
THE DEFINITIVE VERSION OF THIS SONG IS THE JOHNNY NASH ORIGINAL. For crying' out loud. The original Johnny Nash is not second to this one.
For crying out even louder I state that this version redefines the song thereby making it the definitive version of the song. Rarely does a cover improve on the original but it happens here. Sorry for your indignation.
@@patricias5122 l usually always prefer originals but got to say I've always preferred HHF version.
@@andrewcameron1346 Totally agree
Literally on my bucket list 👍🤙
'Songs from the rain' Album by these magical men is possibly the finest i have ever heard.'Born' too i a magical album.What talent they have.
Such a real feel good song. Very uplifting. Love this version too. 😊
In all my years listening to music I'm ashamed to say this is the first time I've heard The Flowers doing this.....It's brilliant.
Same!
Ditto. I'm more embarrassed to say this is my first time hearing them ever. So good.
Same here, I never knew they had covered it.
Pure gold
AND THE CHOIR. Invisible here...but present. Very much present.
A seriously wonderful band.
Church bells to them.
😢😭. This song is soo beautiful and emotional.
I would say I can't believe how many people relate this to TGT, but I expected no less. Whatever shows up In November will be absorbed my me none the less.These 3:have a chemistry that can't be duplicated.
Speed and Power!
This song makes me feel so good. It's uplifting. Music is the best medicine.
What a stunning version, see this song in a different light now and understand the lyrics.
Always makes me feel like a teenager again when I listen to this.
We never grow old
Just awesome, really awesome, fantastically awesome, did I say awesome?
I needed this song, after a breakup yesterday. It was 6 years.
It's been 3 months man. Hope you doing good now.
Yep, we all did need this one
Hope you're better now dude. Happy summer!
28 year marriage ended and I'm watching this. But I'm not melancholy, I'm fucking fine.
Awesome song, great message.
what a great catchey version piano is killer - Saw it on the Jeremy show
Es bringt mir immer wieder Tränen in die Augen. Einfach mega!!!
Car people unite over this song
BBC radio 4 brought me here. Soul music.
What a cover Liam and flowers.
It's the nursing along a hard time, finding will to go forward. But the ascension of this track as we are pulled forward is perfection. The piano moving from a minor to a major as the band swells!
Do you know their song 'It'll be easier in the morning'? Perfection
Best rendition of this song ever! Love these guys I’ve followed them for over 25 years!
Loved this song long before the grand tour👍
The Hothouse Flowers recorded this cover around 30 years ago, but with the passing of Johnny Nash yesterday, the original artist from the early 60s, I can think of no better tribute to Mr. Nash than the passion and joy the Flowers give this song.
here here 1988 my dad passed away remember song
Hot house flowers, what a name, loved these guys back in the day, I did gcse Art because they let us wear r earphones, I blasted my eardrums to death to these guys! What a time! Young dumb and it all in front of me!
Ero in ospedale per un ictus cerebrale,questa canzone mi ha salvato . Buona vita.
Top Gear in witness protection brought me here
Rip top gear
Up there with the best , underrated band
So happy that they start performing again after so many hours ❤️❤️❤️
I Here clearly Now I hope sunshiny Day means for everybody I love this song I know after raining there's always sunshine greatest song thank you for share this music with us👍👏😊😊🌞
Absolutely beautiful version
One of the few covers that are better than the original.
Bittersweet memories of 1991.
The grand tour 2020 like
Still gives me goosebumps! ❤
Just what we all need right now...
I love the folk rhythm and the honest of his voice
I found a copy of Hothouse Flowers' 'Home' at a Salvo op shop in perfect condition..... $3... a month ago. It's a brilliant albumn that still holds its own.
If you like Home, you'll really love People
Back in the early 2000s the flowers were playing in Edinburgh. A friend of mine was friends with a couple of them from back in Ireland, she met them after the gig, quite late. Phoned me who worked in a bar not far away and asked if it was alright to bring the boys in as we were just closing, they arrived just as the last punters left & we sat down had a few beers with them behind closed doors. One of the barmaids was from Cork and recognised Liam straight away, "I just about creamed my knickers", I'll nvr forget that comment as long as I live
#THEGRANDTOUR!!!!!!
Wow wow blows my mind how good is this
Thank you for this moment
Jezza brought us here... You know.
Welcome to the Grand Tour
I like this version the best.
Saw them in concert. Damn they were soooooooo GOOD!
What a beautiful song🎶❤️🇦🇺
Takes me right back to Italia ‘90, lots of great memories
What an awsome track.... would never known wothout Clarckson, Hammond And May
Hot House Flowers stole the show.
👏👏👏👏😎👍🏻🥂great cover 👏👏👏tight band.....ripping at the end....great sax 🎷😎🥂drummer has great dynamics 👍🏻
Grand tour 😎
You,put Liam’s voice against his peers- I’m thinking he would shock a lot of people. Simply a wonderful tonal perfectly tuned set of vocal cords.
Agreed. Very smooth and a little crunchy around the edges. Tasty stuff.
A fab version of a classic song.
Wonderful. Wonderful.
The best version of this song ever
sound
Nah, Johnny Nash's version is the best... This is a good cover though
@@DaveAndBeth1978 Three words: The Grand Tour
I want to say thank you to the grand tour for helping me to get to now this song
Feels like high school again but his voice is even better this time around. How did I not notice this in the 80s?
Takes me back to secondary school - 14 or 15. Songs like this are windows into possibility.....still holds up as great.
Yup, the best cover from my childhood ;-)
I seen them in concert,in a little uni hall.They had made name with Don't go/Eurovision. And I was near the front of crowd,(now this a number of years ago,cough),and right in the mosh pit,was straight in front of band....man,once they go with the music,it just part of this organic group that ,u had no choice to go with them....usual steam rising from us at front....I jumped,sang and cheered my way from start to finish,it was fantastic concert and I've spent my life seeing concerts,I've seen too many bands to remember,no big thing,it was just my main interest I would love(hobby). Anyway I literally had to wait until ppl had ,pulled themselves away a row at a time.
I found my boyfriend at the time waiting nr side of hall.....omg ,I love this band,as they give me a memory that stayed with me.....but I knew I was sweating a bit(ahem)...but I was soaked through including my jacket,jeans sticking to me,god knows wot hair looked like,and steam coming of me still...We both laughed,I can having one saving grace,there were no mobile phones with cameras bk then,thank god lol...love their cover,been playing it on loop. When I seen offical vid,I was looking at him thinking, omg,he hasn't got a day older,wow. Then a real duh moment,yeah older vid lol.
Anyway,yeah takes me back the band,and still play them occasionally...they're on my phone.
Anyway, yes,great cover, I love it. Glad,I didn't comment too much 😉😂
I just love the like gospel twist at the end completely took me by surprise first time i heard it!!
My mum just passed after a tough battle with Alzheimers... this will be playing at the end of her ceremony ❤
Super hot song... Works out very good with that super entrance of The Grand Tour, that video makes my tears shake my eyes...
what a song, Released when I was born.
I can see clearly now, the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-shiny day
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-shiny day
I think I can make it now, the pain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is the rainbow I've been prayin' for
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-shiny day
Look all around, there's nothin' but blue skies
Look straight ahead, nothin' but blue skies
I can see clearly now, the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)
Sun-shiny day
Memories of a sunny day on the Bonnie Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond brought me here.
" Nothing but blue skies.". Heaven. 🌈☀️.👥👥.
How could anyone dislike this incredible song...
BBC
Because some people think the original by johnny cash is better, somehow..
Because it is better... although I do like this cover
Clarkson trio brought me here . This song is perfect
Bought the Cassingle many decades ago.. Timeless classic and great vocals.
The three bo- no men in their Ford Mustangs. Im sad as hell i wasn’t alive until 2009 and only learning about them a couple years ago. Those bloody legends better drive on
The trio really has a good taste in music.
The best version for me is, and always will be, the original by Johnny Nash (a classic tune), there's no beating it IMO - but fair play to the Flowers for trying something different with the song - unlike Jimmy Cliff, who simply cloned the Johnny Nash version... I do like the haunting piano intro and bombastic saxophone solo in this cover - brilliant!
Jimmy Cliff's cover sounds like a cheap karaoke backing track
THANK YOU. Rest in peace Johnny Nash, who left the Earth today, October 6 2020.
The new topgear will be listening to this and not feeling good and the pain just started
Gonna jam this tomorrow morning to start my road trip. Thanks Grand Tour!
