    The best band in the world. This is a masterpiece but so many people who weren’t fortunate to be introduced to them will never know. A bountiful band.

      You are so right. The fact that they're one of those bands that a lot of people seem to miss... it makes them more special somehow... we know though. Keep enjoying 🙏

    One of my favourite songs ever, full of love and optimism, melody lyrics production, one of a handful of songs that are , to me, perfection and take me to a happy place on a natural high✊♥️

    One of the purest love songs ever, 'don't believe that love should bring despair' wonderful wonderful lyric.

    The best band to come out of Manchester by far . Forget Oasis who not only tried to emulate The Beatles but ripped off tunes from The Real People ( Fact ) check it out . But James are unique . To me the dont get the recognition they they deserve, it's almost like a cult following. SO if your listening to this let me fookin tell you. You know music. Love and peace x

    What a band, everything about them is pure talent. Other so called big bands should take note of their live performances and how to interact with the crowd! They always give that big extra and make their gigs feel unique and that you were at something special rather than just reel off a load of songs sung with no heart

    A band who, decades later, I'm only just beginning to appreciate. Awesome song, and they obviously love their Musicman basses.

    James were always criminally underrated imo.
    I feel sorry for them because all people remember them for is 'Sit Down', which I personally think is one of their worst songs.
    I saw them live in 2015 at Festival Number 6 and they didn't disappoint.
    I also saw Tim Booth at V Festival(?) when he went solo and he was giving the crowd an earful for not buying his album. He's an interesting guy.
    They are all very talented musicians who can actually play their instruments like the geniuses they are.

      Doctor, what is happening to me?
      Palpitations, my mind's diseased
      Even my vision is impaired
      I'm losing my hair
      'Cause when I hold her in my arms
      I feel like Fred Astaire
      Lovesick, my temperature's high
      Just met a girl who believes we can fly
      I'm a bull, not a bear
      I'm a millionaire
      'Cause when I hold her in my arms
      I feel like Fred Astaire
      I believe in happiness
      I believe in love
      I believe she fell to earth
      From somewhere high above
      I believe in Hollywood
      Don't believe that love must bring despair
      'Cause when I hold her in my arms
      I feel like Fred Astaire
      You say love is just a disease
      A plague for the naïve
      These days, no-one believes
      Meteors may strike the earth
      Nations live and die
      I'm the boy who got the girl
      And now we're gonna fly
      We can cross the race divide
      Bridge a gap that wasn't really there
      'Cause when I hold her in my arms
      I feel like Fred Astaire
      I'm gonna hold her in my arms
      Just like Fred Astaire
      I'm gonna hold her in these charms
      Like Fred Astaire
      Like Fred Astaire
      (My goodness, the water's rising)
      Like Fred Astaire
