This album was a massive help in getting me through my cancer treatment in 97/98
All the best for you!
Good music is such a treasure❤️
Hope you are good!!
@@kany207 Very good now thank you, I was 17 at the time. A year that was full of great music.
@@anthonyrowe7805 Happy about you! What's your top songs at that year?
Played this at my uncle's funeral 2 days ago. He loved The Verve and saw them live in Wigan in 1998. We were torn on what song to pick but I was having a look through his CDs last week and found this song as a single, and the choice was made. The tears were flowing when it came on but it was a beautiful moment. Until we meet again Martin. 1974-2022 💙
Sorry for your loss ,the verve was my first concert slane 98 ,good song choice 🙏
I felt that ❤❤❤❤
Oh my God 💔. A big hug sweatheart.
Bullshit
Sorry for your tender loss. Your uncle left this Earth still a young man. May you find comfort in memories of him!
This song is a masterpiece, hands down.
One Day Netflix series might have the best soundtrack of any series I have watched in decades! Fantastic. This is a masterpiece
They missed a few opportunities and included a few duds but, generally, they've nailed it. Really rich source of music, the '80s and '90s, so much to choose from.
Totally loved the soundtrack. The second I heard Franck Knuckles "Your love" in the first scene I knew this is gonna be good. Music..... the closest thing to a timemachine.
Agree
You are literally being played
Thi si genuine, slaute form argentina
Verve, Oasis, Travis, Keane....such an era of greatness the last 25 years
Shed Seven
Bush and Stereophonics
The Americans can't here it!
@@SwervinErvin ?
Blur Radiohead and Prodigy.
I remember going back to South Africa after 3 years living in Manchester, a friend I met in Manchester came to visit me in SA in 2003, he was a massive Verve fan and could actually sing just like Richard Ashcroft, we went on a 7 hour drive from Johannesbuurg to the Natal coast, I put this cd on and he sat in the back seat of the car and sang every song like he was actually on stage, best drive ever!
@@saz4143 I wish I was there...sitting in a very wet Cheshire right now longing for a cold bottle of Windhoek lager, a ChesaNyama Braai Box and a decent conversation with someone that understands where I came from...
amazing
Epic ❤️❤️
Wow,really? Cool,you're a real music,good music loving person. It's not a secret,where Peter Ashcroft,Dave Gahan(DM),Amy Winehouse got inspriration from. But don't judge,only the
result is important. Amy not,but Depeche and The Verve made worldwide music much BETTER!!!
Capetonian here listening , love them I get goosbumps from this and lucky man
This album is right now getting me through a terrible period of depression; wish I could've known about it in 1997...this 'boomer loves it.
music can heal...Verve are a special band....
If you need anything...
Keep catching that butterfly
Exercise is the best thing for depression. You’ll beat it if you put the effort it ♥️♥️
Music and nature, my go to. Hope you are feeling better
So this song just closed out the latest episode of ONE DAY, a show on Netflix that I cannot pull myself away from despite my best efforts. I’m suddenly torn back to 1997, remembering just how intensely this album resonated with me during those late 90’s years. Beautiful, soul-touching music. To the members of the Verve, thank you. Your music was there when i needed to know I wasn’t alone in this terrible melancholy.
My sister would sing this to me and now she is gone. RIP this song is in my head every day. Love it.
+j ares Now she sings it out loud in the wider universe! :)
She knows
Sandra Turner
RIP
+j ares allah yerhamha :)
And this my friend is what you call a timeless classic..

Still A Shaker!! no
Played it at my sons funeral last week. RIP Sean, ill dance with you in heaven one day.
✨❤✨
🙏♥️🙏
Never EVER FORGOTTEN
Wow
Thank you One Day for reminding me of this song. The band is amazing. So underrated. They much more talented than all current artists. It is impossible to listen to their songs and not get emotional. Magical
There not underrated but yes I agree they are much better then modern bands and singers
The whole album is a masterpiece.
And it's only their third best album.
lonelyboy1977 I agree. Northern Soul and A storm in heaven are heavily under rated. It’s a crime.
Nah
Andrew Heaton PSH!!!
Indeed 20 years strong for me
Never grows old.
Such a masterpiece
True👍
agree
❤
this album is geting old like wine;)
Definitely ❤
Urban Hymns is a masterpiece...
There will never be another era like the 90s today's generation will never understand
Absolutely right bro. If only.
Today's generation are FUBAR
Just like they'll never understand the '60s, '70s, and '80s. The '90s were not the be all and end all people wrongly proclaim them to be. As for today's generation, i couldn't care less!
Born in the early 2000s, i totally get what you mean. The mainstream music is degenerated with the rap scene and pop scene. The 60s up until early 2000s music is a journey to listen to.
@nordmannenfrank6066 It's worth remembering that there was a 'Golden Age Of Rap' between the late eighties/early nineties. A Tribe Called Quest, The Jungle Brothers, and De La Soul were acts that used jazz to get their erudite messages across, which involved a refreshing self deprecatory attitude!
U don't search this song...the song comes to those who need it 💞👌😊👍
so true (song and comment)
This is so true. And apt.
Wishful thinking but sadly not. Stay strong everyone.
So true. And when I heard it for the first time it was like I had already heard and felt this many times before.
Indeed, my friend. Woke up with the song stuck in my head on a loop without listening to it in weeks. Makes me emotional.
One Day on Netflix reminded me that I love this song.
@@444maitesi me pasó igual.
Thats how i ended up here
It sure did! It did to me too and lots of other 90s they called 'Britpop'? Lol!
Me too, this song passed me by a bit in the nineties, but it’s so good.,
me too uni days
Richard ni se imagina como su música me ayudó durante todo este tiempo a salir de la profunda depresión que sufrí a raíz de la muerte de mí mamá y de la separación de mi pareja... Gracias por siempre Richard, tus canciones sanan corazones ❤
I'm French and I watch this series ONE DAY on Netflix and in episode 10 I remembered how much I love this song by The Verve. Thx 😍😍😍
This track is incredible. That chorus... holy fuck. And that final proclamation of hopelessness... "here we go again and my head has gone..." Amazing
Ya nailed it man.......................fucking nailed it.
My favorite part is: Sinking faster than a boat without a hull, my lord. I love it! 😅
It gives me chills. It's absolutely stunning 💜
Magic.
Mate I was literally in a pub with friends last week saying the same thing - that line kills me
"Eyes open wide looking at the heavens with a tear in my eye."
Such breathtaking line.
❤
FANTASTIC lyrics
😢
Beautiful verses.
Absolutely stunning, Richard Ashcroft is the standout songwriter of his generation
him and noel
@@funman420lover69they are both great
@@seinfeldfan442 never said they weren't
@@funman420lover69 I know, I agree they are both good.
Ashcroft is up there with the best lyricists of the last 100 years …
Lived in Scotland for 4 years. There my mate Dan introduced me to The Verve. We went and saw them in Glasgow when they got back together for that year. Back in South Africa Today 20 years later I'm sitting here receiving my last chemo and the all clear. Still listening to them. Just glad that in the end, the drugs did work.
Get well soon bro
Urban Hymns, definitely one of the best top 50 albums of all time
Nunca vai enjoar! ❤
Wank album. It had one good song on it. This one...
I hear what ya saying.....................................and I dig it.
Utch Punk bitter sweet synphony, drugs don't work, lucky man. Wake up mate
Ohhh fuck yeah...
This band is so criminally underrated!
Like SuperTramp
@@tracydee1857, yes.
How can you call a band that's sold millions of records underrated? Everybody had this album back then. They were never underrated.
They did beat Definitely Maybe to Brits album of the year, after all. Ditto Supertramp. Nick
I don't get why people always say the great bands were underrated. Please explain? In what way were they underrated?? They sold bucket loads of Urban Hymns, hit number 1 with The Drugs don't work, headlined festivals, and like someone here said, virtually everyone at the time owned Urban Hymns!!! They were loved by the music press, radio 1, virgin radio etc etc. If that's them 'underrated' then god I would love to have been in such an underrated band!!!
This song makes me relive my whole life in 4 minutes, the memories, the regrets, the moments, the feelings, the laughs, the childhood, the people I love, the people I’ve lost, the love, the nostalgia, somehow it makes me happy and sad at the same time. This song will grow old with me, that I’m sure. My soul song ❤
I dont think RA / Verve Realise Just How Much Their Music Helps Me Through My Mental Health. Seriously Thank-You
The guy is an absolute legend. Best vocalist ever
sgtdan667 A Fkn Men !!!!
Not too bad a songwriter either lol
He and Michael Hutchence, and Ian Astbury. Best rock vocalists I saw live..
English bands are experts in making such emotional songs, "Sonnet" is proof of this.
True. Brits are on another level.
The 90s was the last decade of pure real music
Yeah, can't believe there are so many neo-nazis in there.
@@lucasb.n.saavedra.7008Not nearly as many as are hiding under your bed right now.
@@GBusso Oh really?????
you are here because you have a great taste in music
I sang this to my son when he was a baby. He just turned 4 and asks me for the "my love" song when I cuddle him. I'll never underestimate the power of this.
Oh wow this made me tear up with happiness-it’s been a bad day and this song is helping me❤
That's a nice story.. there's something amazing about sharing the songs you love with your children. All I need to do is play a song maybe three times, tell a story about the song or the singer and my daughters are hooked🙂. It brings me comfort to know that all these songs I lived for are now loved by my little girls, and that they form an unbreakable connection between us that will remain long after I'm gone.
One of the best songs ever written, in my opinion. 😊 This band means a lot to me.
Agree...
Same☺️
played at younger bro's funeral, still brings tears 15 years on, rip little bro
Bless
amen
rip amen
rip amen
+Warren Mathers feel sorry for you man
I loved the verve in the 90s I remember my big sister giving me a pound for the duke box in a nice pub and saying choose some songs. I chose drugs don’t work, sonnet, bitter sweet symphony, lucky man and I was only 11. I’m 37 now and love the nostalgia…Beautiful memories. Fun fact the pub was near Hoxton market where the video was filmed for butter sweet symphony
They don't make them like this anymore. THat applies to the production, absolutely crystal class
Happy birthday to me 🎉
Amazing track with breathtaking vocal and mystical atmosphere. One of the best British rock songs from 90's.
I can't avoid the tear in my eye everytime i hear this song. Thanks Verve.
defos especially the corus to me
The whole Urban Hymns album is a masterpiece and has honestly prevented me from committing suicide before. Very emotional album for me.. :)
Same here *hugs you*
Yea Mate believe it or not this and Tupac and manic street preachers spoke to me in my darkeat days and yea it's very opposite style of music but the lyrics is all I want the music is just a back piece. shows u ur in touch with ya self m8 head up
The album is best ever keep goin my friend
Facts absolutely facts
Hope the album has helped you get through what ever you were going through.
One of those songs that you feel blessed to have been able to hear just once. One of my all time favourite songs. Thanks Richard, Nick and the rest of the band for making what is simply a masterpiece among masterpieces. I love Urban Hymns. Wish I could see you perform live as a band again if not just one more time...
Sorry to hear. 🙏🏼
No entiendo inglés pero me gustó este comentario 😅
In every note of ‘Sonnet,’ time awakens to tell an unforgettable story, harmonizing with your memories like the leaves of beautiful moments, leaving a profound impact on your soul.
100% 🙌🙌, true Music evokes through thought
I was almost killed and he is helping me heal. I am so grateful for his healing music. Thank you Richard.
What happened?
Evanescence will bring you back from the dark too

My God luv yes! For me it was the woman I will never forget.
Sonnet is one of the best songs ever written I'm so glad we were blessed with the existence of Richard Ashcroft ❤
This is BRITPOP at its best !!!! ❤️❤️
Pain explained in a totally beautiful understanding way . Richard Ashcroft , total genius 👌
Straight back to high school with this one. What a 4ucking masterpiece of an album. 🏴🇬🇧
The whole Urban Hymes album is amazing..my all time favourite!
Sat here now at 43 with a pint & a blunt thinking back if it was all worth it...... for all the misery, death and despair... it was an amazing time to be alive..90s were something else, true end to an amazing unimaginable year, decade, and millenia!! RIP all of you who didnt make it, this ones for you. bless. SW UK.
Same
2021 and this is still the best
Never gets old 😊
Desde Honduras, Clazza 01, regards
A beautiful piece of art.
Amo este tema!
This song made me fell in love when I was 14 and I still there. When I hear this sound, I fell in love, for the same girl again!!! And, as was, she does not knows... for this case, I still be a shy boy, she will never know! 🙄😉
I love this album. Where chaos, cadence and cacophony meet in the depths of a magical, mystical world. Thank you for giving my spirit a place to get lost when that is just what it needs.
Strongest deepest male singer I can think of in my life. Too old to say. True poet.
Best song on album in my opinion. 1998. Was 19 years old. I’m 44 at the end of the month and it still resonates with me. I’m sure there’s a bonus song on it at the end? I’m sure it was this album? TIMELESS
I was 33
Music like this puts my brain into a good mood.
si
+BigDogsDangler Your comment along with your profile picture put me in a good mood xD
Yes. It helps.
BigDogsDangler
Definitely agreed
this whole album brings back memories
Urban Hymes for the win!
So true mate many night drinking with mates and having this on in the back ground , how I miss those day we are all older with kids and that God I miss those nights
Yeah for me Space and Time was the track that I kept on repeat. Love the whole album but that one spoke directly to what was happening in my life right then.

We Blinked & It was gone, But we Lived Through it...We were Blessed
I absolutely adore this Sonnet song by
Richard Ashcroft.
Thanks for your sharing your vibes with us all, R.A .
Don't know if I was just the right age for this song when I first heard it, but it still has such an emotional punch as do others off this album. Those vocals and guitars
This album got me through my mum dying, it came out a few months after she died. I absolutely love The Verve and just adore Richard Ashcroft.
5 years ago I found the Verve from their most famous songs. Years laters I still love their music. I've grown bored of many songs I started to like as the years passed by, but for some reasons, I could never leave theirs. They just have this little bit of surreal feeling that can transport me to another world. Such an amazing music. Whenever I listen to it I can create things. Ahhh I just wanted to express how much I love it really
Beautifully mixed, every instrument clear as a bell and such a great song.
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
My friend and me
Looking through her
Red box of memories
Faded I'm sure
But love seems to stick
In her veins you know
[Chorus]
Yes, there's love if you want it
Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord
Yes, there's love if you want it
Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord
My lord
[Verse 2]
Why can't you see
That nature has it's way
Of warning me
Eyes open wide
Looking at the heavens
With a tear in my eye
[Chorus]
Yes, there's love if you want it
Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord
Yes, there's love if you want it
Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord
My lord
[Verse 3]
Sinking faster than a boat
Without a hull
My lord
Dreaming about the day
When I can see you there
My side
By my side
[Outro]
Here we go again and
My head is gone, my lord
I stop to say hello
Cause I think you should know, by now
By now
Oh, by now
By now
By now
By now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
Oh, by now
Thanks :)
Amazing!!! Thanks 🇧🇷🤘😍
Thanks!
thank you so much, you're an angel! 🤌🏻✨
Much appreciated
Jesus Christ I've been searching for the name/band of this song for days I totally forgot it and now that I finally found it I'm gonna listen to it hundreds times.
This makes me cry. Every time.
Same here, well the whole album gets me every time
Every time ok
2:00
OMG THE WAY THE FANTASY INSIDE HIS HEAD FLIPS UPSIDE DOWN WHEN IT CROSSES HIS RETINA
I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO THOROUGHLY IN LOVE WITH A MUSIC VIDEO ARTIST
My God what a fucking track. Straight back to his high school. The Verve - genius Band.
I'm from Poland and this song reminds me about Brandon, my big English Love. Summer 2006.The best time of my life...Wish I could turn back the time, stay in UK and live a different life...
She sang this song for a cry for help. She took her own life July 25 2010 Orlando Fl. I found her body. I can never recover from the pain in my heart. She wrote a note for God to forgive her. I found this CD in her house and now I play every song. I hope and pray she has reached the heavens.
God bless her, she's at peace now.
God bless her, she's at peace now and I'm sure she's being well looked after.
This song for the past 24 years always makes the hairs on my arms stand up and gets rid of any negative thoughts I've been having, the verve are true musicians and iam proud to know their British and they sing and play from the fucking heart x
One of my best friends went to school in Wigan with these guys. They did mini concerts at lunchtime. How fab! Normally i go for pastures less trod in song choices, but this is so good.
People talk about Bittersweet Symphony, but Imo this song has it beat by a mile.
I totally agree 👍👍👍👍👍👍
2:47 is one of my favourite parts of any pop song ever. Can't quite explain why
Totally agree... these are the greatest few seconds of an amazing song.
Dolcissima canzone.. saluti dall'Italia
Only song that would help out my newborn to zzz. Love this song forever. What a gem.
A beautiful song, really demonstrates the desperation of love
One Day is a Fantastic Series, full of love, hurt, mistakes, what could of been, lost and found love. Past and present. What life is and always will be 😊
Such a talented words, such a beautiful voice, such a fenomenal music- Its Classic. Its about human being.
Truly legends!❤
How is it possible that an amazing song like this only gets 5 million views and crappy songs get 100X the views?
Because they have shit taste :)
+Dave Kim almost 7 million
+Dave Kim Because this game out pre-YT so fewer know of it
Alternately they don't know what a sonnet is
It's the 13 year old fan girls that give the likes of Bieber and Swift their millions of views. They don't understand real music from the 60s,70's,80's and 90's like The Verve. But we are the true music lovers.
the important thing is that we saw it 😎
So grateful for my dad introducing me to real music 💙💙
Havent heard this album in probably 15+ years and it just pooped into myhead that i should listen to it again. This song is bringing me back
Absolutely brilliant. Miss these days. Oh my days.... I'm from the same ends as Richard, oh take me back... What a Genius of a Guy.
Alguien la escucha en la cuarentena??? Saludos desde Lima Perú 🙃
Claro
Saludos desde Arequipa
Tarapoto mi estimada
Saludos, vecina.
Hola preciosa!...😘yo acá en el sur de Chile!..saludos...😘😘❤
Never heard this song, but fallen in love this song after watching One Day
Did you like it? I'm a 42 year old guy whose wife forced me to watch it. Initially. But it's bloody brilliant, isn't it.
I'm only on episode 11 so no spoilers please.
Let me know if you want any more recommendations for music
Lot of his lyrics refer to his dad who had cancer, like from.the same album urban hymns the drugs don't work. It's a blessing to have been in my very 20's in the 90s when real.music was made.
@@jamesmason8436 It's absolutely soul soothing.
Went to see the band in a small hall, in Manchester Uni. As a student. About twenty people and lot of dry ice. Beautiful. This song is special.
Love ❤️ this calming reality of Shakespeare's Sonnets! The Stability of love and it's power to immortalize someone ! Lucky! Not me! X
This was always my favourite song by The Verve.
I sing along to the entire song every time this comes on the radio. Love it. Great band.
me to always i even sing the full song in myhead to or sing it without it on when am in bed
It's been almost 20 years but still.. true love seems to stick in the veins, i guess
Fantastic, urban hymns is one of the best album's ever imo
Anyone listening still 2020 April.
What an artist Richard Ashcroft is. Take a bow ledgend
May 04
Yes love this group!!
Absolute classic
July 2020
2021 :)
love the old school simplicity. very touching and meaningful video for me. makes me cry. so beautiful. he's in the shittiest place, but in his mind the beauty is tangible
when life is it's shittiest, only mental health get ya through. Most of us are damaged, even by the passing of a beloved grandparent. only spirituality gets me through
June 2022 still love this song. The whole album is superb.
Richard Ashcroft you are a fucking Genius. Not taking away at all from the magical Band that you play with. 🙏🏻 Sheer class.
Brings back sad memories, but was my favourite song on the album. Helped me grieve my dad
marmarc46 music is so powerful, It's helped me through hard times like yours too
our senses are so strong, smell,taste,hearing,touch,far too much energy is focused on what we see
Bless 😢🙏
marmarc46 aw
Magic.
Urban hymns was and still is in my opinion the greatest album I've heard in my 55yrs.
It means something different to every person that bought the album. I had it 6x in all
I kept losing it or giving it away to somewhat hadn't heard it but loved it when I played it. Beautiful album and the guitarist, he was a star in the waiting UNBELIEVABLE.

God. Take me back when music was music
music is music
Hit repeat my friend. It's there for you.
Music is still music, you just gotta look a bit harder for the good shit.
There’s still plenty good music just not in the mainstream and u can listen to whatever you want

Sorry for your loss, hope this music brings you peace
I am so sorry.
So sorry for your loss...May the lord have mercy on his soul 🙏
My love and compassion to you
2019! This is one of the most underrated songs in the history of music. The feelings it gives! Simply beautiful!
Coco Drilo. How is this underrated?
True
Yessss
Very much agree this is underrated and it is demonstrated by the fact that "Bittersweet symphony" and "the drugs don't work" have always gotten far more attention. I just UA-camd "the verve" and the video for this was the ninth video given. In my opinion it should be first.
totaly it gives me a lovley feeling to sit nd makes me think of love and other subjects to dowith a guy i loved who hurt me but yeah lyrics are beautiful
