Original post in July 2020:
Saddened at not being able to celebrate with you all in person, instead we’ve filmed a live take of “Fuel Up” from Brian’s shed (complete with nesting swallows) to mark 10 years since Beachcomber’s Windowsill was released. We hope its message will provide some comfort during this strange time where we’re all missing each other dearly.
Later this summer we’re releasing at long last “The Farewell Show” - a recording of our final joyous gig at New Theatre Oxford, in March 2017. PRE-ORDER FROM 20th May via stornoway.tmst...
Please continue making music and never stopping. Finding Stornoway as a teenger was like finding a goldmine for me. It has been around 8 years and I am now 26. Your music is still beautiful and will never not be. Thank you
who is crying with me?
me !
just did now..... the pain and anguish of the current situation around us manifests itself in cathartic tears when songs have this effect on you!
Me mate..
Where a voice & an old song greet you like an old friend......
One of my fav songs. Lucky enough to have the lyrics handwritten by Brian in a frame on my wall. Loved hearing it again from the shed!
Are they back ???
@@juanitoperez8618 They're releasing a live album of their final show in Oxford called The Farewell Show, check it out! I was at that gig and it was amazing :)
Sweet memories of this song and you and me on our journey to Cambridge
A very, very, very, very special songwriter.
It is a mystery to me that this band and their songs are not more recognised. This man has a beautiful voice. The whole band is just a perfect fit.
Is this the best song ever written?
Get back together please!
Best thing to come from lockdown!!
We miss you :(
Always thought this song had the most amazing lyrics 💔
stornoway were the first band that i really loved that I had discovered myself... love this rendition
Fluffing hell Brian, you have the voice of an angel. Never stop expressing yourself, you connect us to what’s beautiful. X
Brilliant. My wife and I have been to see you a few times around the UK. We played some of your music at our wedding. Thank you.
I really hope you guys know how much this song means to a lot of people and how much you're loved.
I can hear the birds singing through my open window to this, they must know...
Please, please do a lockdown livestream!
Fantastic as always. Get squad back together now Brian come on.
What a lovely surprise!
I miss this band so much...I was lucky enough to be at the Manchester Academy gig a few days before the Oxford gig...definitely had something in my eye at times during the gig
I was there! Amazing atmosphere
There’s some thought gone into these chords. Great song from a great debut. Good to hear you’re back for a bit. See you down Worm’s Gead for a peach Melba.
That song has got my back so many times i can´t count anymore... it comforts me whenever i feel sad, lost or frightened by life. Thank you guys for your music.
The voice sounds even more angelic 10 years on. How?!
Beautiful song
Simply beautiful ❤️
What a lovely song - thank you guys xx
Nice to have you back, Brian!!! We were at your last London show and we have missed you so much :D
Magic
Pure class!
One of my worst regrets was not being able to go to Stornoway's 2013 gig up in Leeds which I had tickets for. Now that I'm playing the sorry card can you please get back together?! I think you owe it to me...having never met me before...
Luke Mendenhall hate to rub it in but you missed out big time if you didn’t go to one of the shows on their farewell tour was special.
Was this the gig at the Wardrobe? It was a real amazing night, gutted you weren't able to go
@@Rfa999 yes!! it was my birthday present and I couldn't make it...such a shame. Glad it was good though!
beautiful ! please do an anniversary / reunion tour when this is all over, we miss you!
Superb.
Thank you for posting this. I just finished school and am moving countries (from Norway to Wales) to start university this September and am really nervous. I discovered Stornoway at age 14 and so much has changed since then but things have also gotten so much better. This reminded me that everything will be okay and gave me a sense of comfort and reassurance. Thank you. Ps. I’ll always carry a sadness in my heart that I never got to see Stornoway live as I didn’t have a way of coming down to England for any of their concerts, but I’m eternally grateful for their music.
Wonderful! Sadly I couldn't get to the Oxford show. But I did catch Stornoway at the absolutely blinding gig they did @ The Tram Shed in London's Tooting Broadway one Sunday night, where it seemed I was the only punter in the house, not from...Oxford! However like the rest of the Stornzey's I knew all the words to all the songs they played that night and was blown away to be amongst like minded fans of the band. Cheers lads for a blinding memory and a cracking night. Stay safe and go well.
Love it, waiting for the day you guys get back together and go on tour!
I woke up dreaming about this song and it came true. Thanks ❤️
Ich schreib mal auf deutsch (I think it's better to write a few words in German ;-))... Stornoway haben mich vom ersten bis zum letzten Song berührt. So traurig es ist, dass sich die Band aufgelöst, so glücklich bin ich, dass ich sie einmal in London sehen konnte! Das größte Wunder bei dieser Band war, dass meine Frau und ich gleichermaßen liebten ;-)
What a nice surprise, always a pleasure hearing from you guys!
This is the best song in the history of the universe :-) I only discovered Stornoway recently, when a friend linked to a radio show that played the farewell concert. This song has been a major factor in me being able to fuel up again and drive on, restart a life that hadn't seemed worth the trouble... Forever grateful, guys!
lovely
This is a timeless song for true music lovers, the sound and the lyrics are amazing 🎶👌🎧
At the time, I remember buying Beachcomber's Windowsill for my girlfriend at the recommendation of Carl in Rapture... years later I sat with her (now my wife) in the merch tent at Truck and watched you sing Josephine. And we sat in the audience for the final Oxford show at the New Theatre. Such a treat the gig is being released. Hope the band are all well
Simple beautiful.
This is perfection
What a voice.
This is just stunning, thanks Brian
Never gets old
Beautiful - bet the swallows enjoyed it too :) hope you're all staying well over there x
Still listening to this album in Ontario, Canada - years since I first heard it in University... Love this song, and the feeling behind it.
Beautiful
Always been my go to song when I feel low.
First saw you at Acousticica in Exeter probably about 15 years ago.
Well this was a bloody wonderful way to start the morning! Always seem to come back to this song and this version is one of the sweetest. Also very excited to see Stornoway are on the line up for WOMAD this year, will be great to see you guys x
You are honestly so talented! Been listening to you for a while now on Spotify - nice to see a video of you performing the song.
PS: This was my spotify 2020 most played song!
Awesome! Thanks..... Brightened my day. Miss you guys!
Please get back together !
Really think this is a song that might be something special done as a full rock song versus acoustic, love to see what It mind sound like
Now this is the best thing I have seen in a while.
This song hits so deep 😭🔥
My, what a beautiful shed you have sir!
Amazing, love you guys what an album this is 😌
Beautiful. Thank you.
Awe this song ❤️ 9 years ago it was made crazy
A truly gorgeous, gorgeous song which just stirs the emotions and brings more than one lump to my throat....you guys can still weave the magic and for that you will always be loved and treasured. Thank you all so much for these exquisite new performances..... I am moist-eyed already just listening to this right now.....man, how does one reconcile music this beautifully moving with their immediate surroundings and circumstances so perfectly?
Love your music, love this Tanglewood guitar you play as well. What model is it? Thanks!
I'm so happy to hear this, it motivates me！
