This album changed my life when I was 17. I didn't fit in with anyone. Then I bought this album on hearing rattle snakes. It's the album that keeps on giving. About the same time I got night and day by joe Jackson. These albums had a massive impact on my brain my personality and my style. For the best 👌
I discovered them at the same age thanks to my american friend from Tacoma. And I've been listening to them since this beautiful american spring of the late eighties.
I can't hear this without hearing camera obscuras "Hey Lloyd, Im ready to be heartbroken" which is the best answer to another song I've ever heard. Listen to it right after this.
Lloyd coles songs really bring me back in time. It really captures a certain time and feelings related to that time in history. British music always has that power, its really magical and along with the music great voices with great spiritual essence.
Lloyd Cole is amazing. I have liked soo many bands/artists over the years and he is one of the few that i go back to over and over again. Brilliant. Hope he can see this.
Played this my niece whos just about to start uni. Her visions of saving the planet and the starving millions , and right wing politics. Or very well and good but dont forget the human heart, and emotions i reminded her. Two years later... well you know the dance
Brings back memories - first song played at the first ever SAFM Skyshow in Adelaide - 1985. I can even recall the parachutists jumping out sailing down to the ground while this song was playing out of thousands of ghetto blasters.
Lyrics: Looking like a born again, living like a heretic Listening to Arthur Lee records, making all your friends feel so guilty About their cynicism and the rest of their generation Not even the government are gonna stop you now … But are you ready to be heartbroken ? Are you ready to be heartbroken ? … Pumped up full of vitamins on account of all the seriousness You say you're so happy now, you can hardly stand Lean over on the bookcase if you really want to get straight Read Norman Mailer or get a new tailor … Are you ready to be heartbroken ? Are you ready to be heartbroken ? Are you ready to bleed ? … What would it take What would it take to wipe that smile off of your face ? Are you ready to be, are you ready to bleed ? Are you ready to be heartbroken ? Are you ready to bleed ? (heartbroken) Well you better get ready now baby Are you ready to bleed, ready to bleed ?
Je retrouve cette chanson après tant d année,je devais être en première année d Ecole d Architecture..cette voix ,que de beaux mélancoliques souvenirs. C est une évidence: je vais l acheter en cd ...mon vynil a vécu bcp de déménagements ..et ma platine quelques désagréments depuis 1981..
Lloyd Cole is so cool but .only heard this for the first time 2 weeks ago. Heard this on rte1 John Creedon my favourite radio broadcaster ever. Listening to perfect skin as I try to type this.🍻😁
Cut me down me lembra minha fase de surfar em Ipanema e tinha um grupo que comigo dávamos festa que nos contratava e sempre tinha the smith, the cure, the cult, echo and the bunniman, sioxe and banches, REM, hoodo gurus, australian crow, men at work, culture club, every thing on the girl, e muitos outros que ficaria enorme a lista valeu demais época que não volta mais 😀
hey lloyd, a quick letter to you i love camera obscura and trust tracyanne with all my heart but after this part i always break down crying "Looking like a born again Living like a heretic Listening to arthur lee records Making all your friends feel so guilty About their cynicism And the rest of their generation Not even the government are gonna stop you now But are you ready to be heartbroken? Are you ready to be heartbroken?" i never will be. and i think that's fine, beautiful song!

Love this band
Interesting! I'm on my way over there now
This song is ageless. If you didn't know it and heard it today you would be wow. You can't even comprehend its nearly 40 years old masterpiece lloyd
Music has that kind of power. Thanks for sharing such a special moment in your life!
Hey Llyod, I'm ready to be heartbroken...
Because I can't see further than my own nose at this moment.
Camera Obscura
YES
This album blew me away when it came out - still love it to bits, probably even more now.
Same. Love,love,love this album. Still have my old CD. Play it regularly. Also, how good is 2CV......
Not a bad song on it!
Defo.... I had it on a TDK AD90 when it first came out. It really stands the test of time.
I would really love to know if Lloyd Cole knew how special, timeless and unique this album would turn out when they were making it. xx
Very cool
My history teacher brought me here. May he rest in peace.
An absolute classic. I was in my early twenties when Rattlesnakes was released and I loved the album from the first listening.
Same; early twenties then - early sixties now
All Lloyd's song are just timeless. No expiration date.
Right?!
This song is just sublimely gorgeous. I wish I'd have found it sooner in life.

Tout a fait d accord avec vous,mon passé et ses beaux souvenirs viennent de me ..submerger!
magic. such an amazing song.
I'm heartbroken that everyone in the world hasn't listened to this song..
"What will it take - What will it take to wipe that smile off of your face?"
F ing amazing. Still.
Lloyd Cole is amazing. I have liked soo many bands/artists over the years and he is one of the few that i go back to over and over again. Brilliant. Hope he can see this.
Love this band. Stil listening to this album and it doesn't age.❤
This fantastic song reminds me of my student days, what heart times!
Played this my niece whos just about to start uni. Her visions of saving the planet and the starving millions , and right wing politics. Or very well and good but dont forget the human heart, and emotions i reminded her. Two years later... well you know the dance
This and Sweetness on an endless loop in my dorm room 1986.
If you got here...enjoy.
I remember listening to this in the Golan Heights in 86. Rattlesnakes was a classic album. Thanks Lloyd.
Just a beautful song . Always makes me cry. Reminds of uni days

The best song from one of my 10 favourite albums ever made.
Such an unforgettable song this!! None other like it. Love the violins at the end. Every sound is perfect!!
Leigh Taylor ....strings by Anne Dudley, absolutely fantastic.
@@bettyboo1930 wow!!

I miss that music so much now.
Love it always
Sincere and raw, ouch.
Butterflies of sadness.
Hey Lloyd, I'm ready to be heartbroken.💔
Different class.
Gotten back in2 Lloyd, after a long hiatus.
Timeless...
Excelente canción de un álbum irrepetible. Grandiosos Lloyd Cole And The Commotions.
I was born heartbroken...
isto sestro
@@bojandimovski1504 - still heartbroken... blessings... : )
What a band, what a tune
Lyrics:
Looking like a born again, living like a heretic
Listening to Arthur Lee records, making all your friends feel so guilty
About their cynicism and the rest of their generation
Not even the government are gonna stop you now
… But are you ready to be heartbroken ?
Are you ready to be heartbroken ?
… Pumped up full of vitamins on account of all the seriousness
You say you're so happy now, you can hardly stand
Lean over on the bookcase if you really want to get straight
Read Norman Mailer or get a new tailor
… Are you ready to be heartbroken ? Are you ready to be heartbroken ?
Are you ready to bleed ?
… What would it take
What would it take to wipe that smile off of your face ?
Are you ready to be, are you ready to bleed ?
Are you ready to be heartbroken ?
Are you ready to bleed ? (heartbroken)
Well you better get ready now baby
Are you ready to bleed, ready to bleed ?
Another absolute classic from Lloyd.

Grande Lloyd, al Verdi di Genova Sestri nel 1989, disco pietra miliare!
Old ish man now , listened to a lot of music in my time, this still stands up and is one of my favourite intros ever
Great Song - Grande Canção.... From Portugal - Penafiel
Dead or Alives album, Fan The Flame PT.2 brought me here. If you havent heard their rendition of this, song give it a listen.
Love love love this X love the instrumental bit in the middle xx
Saudades de muitos momentos com essa música rolando, em minhas festinhas juvenis.
anybody out there..anybody..with a soul
Wonderful track!!! Such a lively beautiful voice!!!
just perfect in every way x
Lloyd Cole is so cool but .only heard this for the first time 2 weeks ago. Heard this on rte1 John Creedon my favourite radio broadcaster ever. Listening to perfect skin as I try to type this.🍻😁
Quite possibly his greatest song
Magic this was .
Listened to this on the way to break up with a toxic ex. Was eventful
nobody is ready to be heartbroken...
Mr Malcontent + This Song = Tie for BEST SONG EVER
I've just realised that this is about a lover getting ready to let someone go.
The memories!!!
Thank God for music
Top demais...
in my top ten albums of all time
Lovely record!
Ready mate. So ready.
My new favorite song
A beautiful song!

Part of my life

Bellissima
Never, not once did I hear this on u.s. radio. Something songs are too good for the idiot Masse's
thx for sharing
the best song of loyd cole
Lloyd
But I still love this song :)
I do
I was 16, and I was not ready.
That was so poetic I had to tell you.. 🙃
Cut me down me lembra minha fase de surfar em Ipanema e tinha um grupo que comigo dávamos festa que nos contratava e sempre tinha the smith, the cure, the cult, echo and the bunniman, sioxe and banches, REM, hoodo gurus, australian crow, men at work, culture club, every thing on the girl, e muitos outros que ficaria enorme a lista valeu demais época que não volta mais 😀
lloyd cole is the 80ies elvis.
nah, they're both great. besides looks, not the same at all. Elvis was trying to channel something more dangerous at the time.
Sweet melody
cynical lyrics
lovely
an old emotional pain
love lc
Holy shit. This is fuckin beautiful !
Im ready... Let's do it
"Making all your friends feel so guilty about their cynicism", ahahhaha
Still simply astounding today. Scotland’s Lou Reed?
I ALWAYS thought he was Scottish, until today I found out he's NOT!
He's English, went to uni in Glasgow and band formed there.
Cette chanson me fait tout quitter à chaque écoute...
muchas gracias
Evocative of great times Dundee Uni 1980s!
Down the road brought me here
......grazie
“Read Norman Mailer or get a new tailor..”
His best tune. Talking about Arthur Lee and Norman Mailer. Check out 📷 Obcura tribute song. Nice..

Wasn’t what I was expecting after dancing my shoes off to the CO homage.
