I'm just drinking my coffe, early in the mourning, and it's raining here in Hercegovina, where the fall says hallo in this time of year. And this song gives it self to me. Nobody near by, just me, my coffe and cigarete, and the galaxy of emotions by this masterpeece.
Give it up the smoking, it'll kill you then no more Mogwai mornings. I mean that in a nice way. Like, Mogwai mornings are to die for, but not literally.
Mogwai has been one of my most loyal companions over these years, many people have come and gone through my life, but this band was always there for me. It didn't matter if I was sad, lonely, or even joyful, they always had a song for my mood. For me, their music is therapeutic. Their sound has been so helpful through dark times, that I cannot imagine how could I live without them, because they are like one of my best friends. Life's full of ups and downs, and if you're lucky, you'll find people or things that help you enjoy the ups and tolerate the downs. This band is a dear friend of mine, and I feel so grateful that I had the chance to discover them while I was in need of a good friend. Thank you for being there, Mogwai.
4 years after listening to this and I still feel exactly the same like when I heard it for the first time: melancholic and pensive. I'm drunk. After all these years I still love you, Jenine. And I always will.
Get your shit together, get it all together and put it in a back pack, all your shit, so it's together. And if you gotta take it somewhere, take it somewhere, you know, take it to the shit store and sell it, or put it in the shit museum. I don't care what you do, you just gotta get it together...Get your shit together.
+BRW 8 months after you posted that comment and only now I get the reference. When Morty said that line, I remembered your comment and man, I burst out laughing. Chapeau to you, my good man.
Been listening to Mogwai for something like a decade. They're my absolute favourite band. This is one of my favourite three tracks of theirs for sure. Absolute perfection. For anyone who's got no clue what the opening dialogue is all about, it's one of the band members prank calling their manager, telling him they've had a fight, thowing punches n all and they're breaking up LOL can't believe he even bought it. He must've been devastated poor lad.
Martin seems like such an ordinary guy, but not only can he play drums insanely well, but it's always effortless, hyper controlled and often distinctly non-flashy. Maybe it's his pacemaker that gives him his powers.

I just adore Mogwai's sound. Such a fantastic representation of our motherland.
Wow, just wow. I've always had one Mogwai song on my UA-cam playlist but never really explored the rest of their music. I cannot believe just how good this is. I will treasure this and their other great songs from now on.
Life pretty hard most of the time, but music is one thing that takes the burden of existence off your shoulders, just for a little while. For a bit, you aren't here, you are where you were when you first heard this song, or you just feel the pure emotion it gives you. It's fantastic. Reading all these comments, messages to people they miss who will probably never read them, people talking about how this songs like a winter morning, some people saying this song takes them back to the moment they first heard it, it's beautiful. I love seeing people bare a piece of their life here because this music has brought it out in them. And despite the fact that no one's probably gonna read this, I'll do the same. When I was fifteen I had gotten into a relationship with a girl, she was an extremely sweet and kind girl. The thing that this song bring burning to the front of my mind is the feeling of holding hands with her. Locking fingers and walking together on a frosty day. And even though our hands were freezing we never put them back in our pockets. The feeling of it just shines out in this song when I hear it, it's like I'm right back there in that moment. Six years on and I still cherish that memory of holding hands with someone who really cared for me. I hope you are well Charlie. I hope you still listen to Mogwai after all these years and if somehow you read this, you were awesome, I'm sorry I never spoke to you again.
It's those swirling pads at the end that get me, if nostalgia had a sound, that would be it. It reminds me of my first long term relationship, sitting on this mountain with her, with this incredible westward view. The crisp and clear winter sunset smashing out pinks and oranges around the mountains in the distance. That's music for you.
"We gotta, we gotta do something about this" "When do you think you could make it over here? How long?" "I could try and get there, about 25 minutes maybe" "Right" "I'll try" "Okay" "But we got to sort this out" "Okay. I'm just gonna go, I'm going to head off just now and just try to speak to some people about this" "Well, we've got to do something" "Yeah" "Cause if we don't take care of this then...I don't even want to think about it" "Hello" "Hi, Colin" "Hiya" "It's Martin" "Hi Martin" "I'm sorry to bother you" "It's alright" "But we've got a bit of a sketch going on here" "What? What?" "Well, it's pretty hard to explain" "So tell us. What?" "Right. We were down at Vic's and Stuart and Dominic got into a bit of a row" "Hmm hmm" "And Stuart was getting a bit stroppy with Dominic and it ended up with Dominic punching Stuart and walking out--" "Hmm hmm" "--Saying he's not coming back." "Stuart's saying that he's out and stuff like that" "Right" "Stuart's away as well" "Where's Stuart away to?" "He just phoned his dad and left" "And is John still there?" "No he went away with Stuart for some reason. To try and calm him down or something. It was a full bloody sketch man. I don't know what to do. We've this thing on Tuesday" "Right. Kind of limited to what I can do, right?" "Yeah, but me and Paul are here, totally. We don't know what to do, man. Me and Paul are sitting here and we don't know what to do" "Carry on mixing" "Yeah?" "This sort of stuff happened before, you know" "It's pretty bad" "It's just a fucking sketch" "It's pretty bad" "Erm, right, well, if you could give Stuart a phone. Erm, we can sort something out, we'll just work around" "We'll find out what it's about. I think Dominic's just gone to get wasted" "Uh huh" "Yeah, but I don't know where he went, he just left, just went in the car and went" "Okay, well, I'll speak to Stuart, but then I'll get him to phone Dominic" "Right, okay, Fine, right. Colin, well, sorry you got down with this tonight" "Fine, I'll soon phone you back" "Okay, no problem" "See you's" "Right" "Bye, later" "Bye"
@@mrnprrn this is a fragment from a phone conversation between the band members. Apparently Stuart (lead singer and guitarist) had a little fight with Dominic (bassist) and Martin was calling Colin to ask him how to settle a conflict.
Marina- you're not stupid. You see Dominic punched Stewie in his vagina and left. Stewie ran to his safe space and the other 2 girls never witnessed a real fight, so they cried and called Colin to bother him. Then they put music around it and called it Tracy.
@@johnc7801 You do realize the phone call was "just a prank bro" to fuck with the band's manager at the time, right? You're hearing Colin Hardie (manager) reacting to a tale that Martin Bulloch (drummer) is spinning for him over the phone. Rumor has it that Colin lost his nerve and even said some shit that they were forbidden to include in the final mix. Makes for an interesting sample. Also please consider that Dominic and Stuart have been permanent fixtures in the band for 20+ years. You think that'd be possible if they were getting into fist-fights over song ideas back in the 90s? Think about it for a minute.
This feels very good on a cold winter mourning when it's stil dark outside, just sitting by the fire, drinking coffe... then again, it also felt very goog last summer, in the afternoon when it was pretty hot. Oh, summer (winter version)... Man, their music is so emotional
Cystlib same here... i remember hearing this stoned out my skull on radio 1's breezeblock.. too stoned too catch the name.. years later when listening to Mogwai i realised it was them... it was meant to be ! Ha
J'ai remarqué que tout ceux qui aimait Mogwai aimait beaucoup les chanteurs québecois;-) je connais Mogwai depuis qui 4 ans et j'aime de plus en plus....
Makes me realize how much the people of the past were a part of me and how much I miss the time we had. Some, not knowing that it’d be the last of our time together during this life. Miss you guys and love you through it all ❤️
On my way home from hers. It was a good evening. We were sitting outside on the terrasse, discussing and drinking chilled ice tea. August Evenings are made for this. I see some teenagers fooling around at this late hour. Inner peace. August 98.
its fun how some music belongs to some time. even thou the song was made 9 years before it. 2006 and 2005 was a meaningful time for mogwai (saying this from myself and from many friends ) . felt like the world was described by it. that is really a music that was made before its time.
he's part of the Emerica Team, and a beautiful remix of this song done by Kid Loco was used in the End credits of their classic vid "This is Skateboarding"...

Amen!
Amazing band, amazing words also. I know exactly what you mean. Check out Hammock, you will love I'm sure x
hey , I'm working on a project with Mogwai. could you email me? antonycrook@mac.com Thanks
Yes
Damn you stole the words from me!!!

Chapeau to you, my good man.
hope you're doing better now

Sadness is often a beautiful thing. Partially because its a learning experience.
I'm so glad someone agrees.
I agree there is often a lot of beauty to be found in sadness. Sadnesses like happiness for deep people
Samuel Whittingham
That is so true haha. I was just wondering about that dilemma the other day
Like Charlie Addams..... "Sometimes we have to go to the darkness to find light and the beauty"
i never thought about it that way

everytime I hear this song - I need to think if my way of living is the right way.
Martin Live the way you want to. thats the right way
no, what you REALLY want to, maybe its not what you think
idk
Agreed
To quote Soren Kierkegaard
" Life can only be understood backwards but it must be lived forwards."
You totally nailed the essence of this song
Their drums though! They really do stand out! Every time I listen to Mogwai, I'm amazed by their percussion section!
😍😍
Martin seems like such an ordinary guy, but not only can he play drums insanely well, but it's always effortless, hyper controlled and often distinctly non-flashy. Maybe it's his pacemaker that gives him his powers.
I just adore Mogwai's sound. Such a fantastic representation of our motherland.
Your picture/thumbnail should be user as a background for this song :) also yes I agree :P
I dunno where your motherland is but it's definitely a soundtrack for the soul
+Teethgrinder 83 Mogwai are Scottish so I'm therefore assuming she is referring to Scotland as motherland idk?
Atlantis is the motherland for white people. I could imagine hearing this in Atlantis.
I do hope I can visit someday
So I discovered this band today, 4 hours ago... I can't stop listening.
What do you think of "ex-cowboy"?
You stopped yet? 🙃
it's like crying. it isn't inherently sad, that's just the emotion we've been conditioned attach to it as a society, sadly...
yeah i wish it was simply viewed as a healthy release
speaks so eloquently, almost without any words
I love their songs with audio clips mixed in, there's something about it that always feels calming, I don't know what that feeling is.
Я пізнав Магваі у 2001 році І це по зараз най улюблініша группа що є. Скільки не слухай все як в перший раз.
Wow, just wow. I've always had one Mogwai song on my UA-cam playlist but never really explored the rest of their music. I cannot believe just how good this is. I will treasure this and their other great songs from now on.
Then try with the song - Yes, I am a long way from home

Purchased young team back in 2003, man how time has passed.

Impossibly beautiful...and yet incomparably sad. Interesting...

yes, back then i often watched emerica - this is skateboarding with this song for the credits... :')
Hadn't heard this old fave in a couple of years and couldn't remember the title 🤣 took forever to find! Bingo: Mogwai "phone call"🤓
Thank you CSI Miami for letting me know this awesome song ❤
20 years since the album makes you think ...
And, just like that, another 20 years slip by.
I was lucky to hear this album the year it came out...I was a junior in high school in Ohio. I'm listening to this song as I type this.
The very first Mogwai song I ever heard. O how time flies
Cystlib same here... i remember hearing this stoned out my skull on radio 1's breezeblock.. too stoned too catch the name.. years later when listening to Mogwai i realised it was them... it was meant to be ! Ha
"Tracy, wait. Keep my stars"
the arpeggiated bass line on this is just marvelous
J'ai remarqué que tout ceux qui aimait Mogwai aimait beaucoup les chanteurs québecois;-) je connais Mogwai depuis qui 4 ans et j'aime de plus en plus....
I found Mogwai from Emerica This Is Skateboarding (2003), the outro song and it stuck with me all these years. Thank you Emerica and Mogwai ❤
Thanks for uploading the whole track... This song is part of my life, you can't imagine how much it means for me.
wished my country's radio stations had music like this
2010.
Still loving you.
Makes me realize how much the people of the past were a part of me and how much I miss the time we had. Some, not knowing that it’d be the last of our time together during this life. Miss you guys and love you through it all ❤️
When your in a dark place listen to this it will guide you no words just sounds
respiro y escucho tu voz,
michael te amo...
one of Robert Smith's favorite bands.
...and mine.
They played at his festival in Pasadena, CA
Interesting.
Congrats Mr Walsh for pairing fantastic music with great visuals.
Amazing always. I heard this 15 years ago and it blew my mind. Still does.
Very nice. Ideal for a calm, warm summer evening.
i used to listen to this while high when i was young, its nostalgic
Amo esta canción :)
"Hello?"
"Hi, who's callin'?"
"Hiya, 't's Martin!"
"Hi Martin!"
"Just carry on, like ..."
On my way home from hers. It was a good evening. We were sitting outside on the terrasse, discussing and drinking chilled ice tea. August Evenings are made for this. I see some teenagers fooling around at this late hour. Inner peace. August 98.
beautiful song
+Dirtroad Games You're right.
This is beautiful, absolutely beautiful
Its 2019 and i discovered Mogwai and Skinshape...listen to the song "Breathe" by SS. Awesome vibes.
man i love that bass line
its fun how some music belongs to some time. even thou the song was made 9 years before it. 2006 and 2005 was a meaningful time for mogwai (saying this from myself and from many friends ) . felt like the world was described by it. that is really a music that was made before its time.
i don't know why most of the people say this music is sad...for me it's just amazing cool.: )
I discovered this today. I have been scolded at work because I was left blank thinking about "what I had just heard "
I always have goosebump, esspecialy the ending, from 5:01 to 7:34. Dont know why, those ambient sounds are so powerfull.
Any other song dont have it.
This is really lovely. Reminds me of Eno's The Big Ship a little bit
This song is gonna be played at my funeral. It transcends…something for sure but I’m not sure what
I could slow hand to this song all day
初期大好き、音色が香る
beautiful
my favorite song of theirs
You could move bricks through the air with that bass line...
This song makes me feel like im going on a morning walk with the person I love
So called because Dominic thought his bassline was similar to the riff from Tracey Chapman's 'Fast Car'.
It hurts.
This is so surreal.
reminds me of 2006... I loved those days. i dont wanna grow up :(
If you're one of the forty people who disliked this song - let's talk
thanks best song ever, i bought kicking a dead pig the remix album, it's been over 7 weeks and still no news
This is when you feel the beauty of sadness.
still one of their bestt
Il paradiso è un posto della Terra con te.
A Domenico❤️
This song reminds me of VHS tapes.
the perfect farewell song
FFS those drum fills, the triplets, they fucking rule. Martin is mega underrated drummer.
traaaaacy..i found you!!!...i had lost youu .P
D: why did you do that to me? T__T
Just let your feelings came out.
Love it
Third song i ve fall in love with
I'm melting.
Saw them at Meredith Music Festival a few years ago. Never seen a band that could take it down so low.
It ain't bad to grow up as long as you stay true.
I think I might love this song.
La prima volta che incrociai il tuo sguardo capii finalmente cosa significa amare.
a Salvatore.
Love the expression 'bit of an f-in sketch"
all your mogwai videos are beautiful, thank you
;_; best on young team, in my opinion. Listen to it at least once every few days
dog died today, feeling really bad...love this song
lovely, thanks
Beautiful and sad song
We must not allow our hearts, to be louder than our reason...
Reminds me of 2002. Oh life, I'm getting old.
Hey, I like it !
Bryan Herman!!
he's part of the Emerica Team, and a beautiful remix of this song done by Kid Loco was used in the End credits of their classic vid "This is Skateboarding"...
This song Shatters me every time. makes me weep. dunno
very high quality baby music
I miss Kt.. thx
para un buen viaje
Totally relaxing
Love the expression "bit of a fuckin sketch" delivered in Glaswegian...
