    24 years later and still better than 90 percent of the mass produced rubbish out there today. Music had so much soul back then. Great band. Amazing album

      Christ these lazy comments every time on old music. And what's your point about "mass produced"? What do you think, this record was put out on an independent label run out of a garage in Lewisham and distrubuted only within a 10 mile radius?

      I agree, one of the best songs of the 1990s. It actually sounds slightly 60s or 70s in style, so it's amazing it's an original song. Slightly Carole King style if you know what I mean.

      Indeed so. I didn't know who did this, so just looked it up as it was on the radio. It has that "old" jangly vibe melodic energy to it. Doesn't sound 28 July 1997 at all.

    In the mid to late 90’s, a pop hit could have post-grunge guitar crunch, a driving Motown rhythm section, smart and passionate lyrics sung with soul power, all matched up with a video taking the best from art films and commercial advertising

    When I was a kid my parents used to play me both the Beatles and Motown/Soul classics all the time, and I have always loved them. Then in 1997, I was 15 and this song by Texas, a band I already knew and liked, appeared, and I fell in love from the start, because it was a sound I loved, but it was not common at all at the time, and I couldn't believe I was hearing something like that in a modern song. It made me a fan for life and 25 years later I love it even more and I still think it is one of their top 3 songs ever.
