australian music actually took over the world after kurt's death when grunge was getting boring into the boom of electronica - this song is as important as barry manilow or elvis mastering acoustic guitar professionally. kid laroi, maybe not....
When you know, you know why. Some artists are able to put an aspect of your life into words. And you know why it touches you, I'm nearly 60, and this song means so much to me ❤️ but it hurts, or brings joy, it just depends where I'm at. It's perfect 👌🙏
So nice you get it Josh. I keep rewatching cos it''s got everything, today its how they all change throughout, from irritation or envy, to finly loving it, and who gets it first is like a match to how real they are, ie the old guy cos he knows a bit. Anyway.
There is an innocence and purity to Alex's voice that is sublime. This song is heartbreakingly beautiful. He is truly one gifted artist who should not be overshadowed by some other artists of today. But he is Australia's lovely secret and for that I am thankful.
I have watched this music clip sooooo many times! If you can find your soul mate through music then DO NOT ever let them go! Each and every time I watch this song it Moves Me Beyond Words (any great song will) :)
Обожаю эту песню! В моём личном хит-параде она уже десять лет входит в пятёрку лучших песен десятилетия..не говоря уже о клипе !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Гениальная работа!
Great song and a cool video - nice change from the artist going through 100 costume changes, with half second cut aways. This video tells a story of ordinary people suddenly woken up by a song that awakens different emotions in the listeners. Some try to understand it by taking notes, become startled when they begin to feel the music, shed tears, or simply sing along. The people change - see the boy notice the girl as she sings along with a smile.
Saw this awesome guy supporting the great, late Jeff Healey on 4th October 2000 at The Shepherds Bush Empire, London...I have been searching for him cos I couldn't remember his name , and it wasn't written on my ticket ..so found him now Yesssss ..just love him!!
Listening to this gives me goosebumps. Even after watching it over and over again ever since it was released. It also helped me through some of the toughest times in my life. Thanks Alex :)
Does anyone actually know how underated Alex loyd is.... No one's awake these lyrics are a message FOR U and only U♥️♥️🔥 If you feel my vibe U will understand
Alex can't get my though away from his songs everyday. The soul the performance and the science of his music is unique & so soothing to the soul. Great artist....
If you love this clip see his one for Downtown it is a work of genius. Both songs came off his album Watching Angels Mend album which is one of the best albums ever recorded by an Australian artist.
I haven't heard this for at least 18 years. I had the CD way back when. I forgot how much these songs make you feel calm and how catchy the end is. Anyoneeeeee.....Anyoneeeee.
@SteveFizzer The video for me is about a songwriting/music class at a TAFE college, or adult education class (at high school, in the evening) and Alex just performs his song that he has written to finish the course. Thoroughly plausible.

@@user-kn4ge3gn8j good one i didnt realise how many good songs alex had til i took a listen same goes for a lot of artists or bands unless you check them out there may be more than just one or two songs you heard on the radio cheers wayne sydney 26 nov 2022
11-year-old me in 2002 getting up at 5am on those cold dark Saturday mornings in winter to watch Rage
Dude!! 👍🏾
You’ve got the spirit.
Classic mate. Those early morning sessions have ensured you have great taste in music for life.
Agree
YES ❤
ONCE just once - I super loved every clip
Was devo i didnt own a VHS 😅
One of the most underrated musicians out there.
True musicians have style of music which identify them and, not copying or imitating from other artists, Alex Lloyd is one of them.
so very true! Still listening in 2021 are you?
australian music actually took over the world after kurt's death when grunge was getting boring into the boom of electronica - this song is as important as barry manilow or elvis mastering acoustic guitar professionally. kid laroi, maybe not....
alex music is art
Absolutely my "I am sad and don't know why, but I definitely need a cry" song.
When you know, you know why. Some artists are able to put an aspect of your life into words.
And you know why it touches you, I'm nearly 60, and this song means so much to me ❤️ but it hurts, or brings joy, it just depends where I'm at.
It's perfect 👌🙏
This guy can certainly write, sing and perform the most beautiful of music
2024 anyone? 🎉🎉🎉
This song still gives me goosebumps … 💕 LOVE
The last minute of this song is pure musical genius
Probably the greatest music video ever made. Every character has relevance to the song. Alex Lloyds best song.
Really? Could you explain? I thought the
video was weird AF
So nice you get it Josh. I keep rewatching cos it''s got everything, today its how they all change throughout, from irritation or envy, to finly loving it, and who gets it first is like a match to how real they are, ie the old guy cos he knows a bit. Anyway.
I watched a Gerling video before this. I'm feeling it!
Maybe it was the same guy who did it. Makes sense. They're both really good.
There is an innocence and purity to Alex's voice that is sublime.
This song is heartbreakingly beautiful. He is truly one gifted artist who should not be overshadowed by some other artists of today.
But he is Australia's lovely secret and for that I am thankful.
hhelbys he aint that secret
Beautifully said
On point
2021 and still listening to this great song. I "discovered" this singer in 2002 when he playing in Italy.. nice concert!
Where did he play in Italy?
@@alessandroalfi1181 ciao Alessandro, ha aperto il concerto di Ligabue a San Siro
There you have it...Elvis was alive after all , just never aged..
I love the huge orchestral sound of this song. Congratulations to all involved, what a masterpiece.
A pure unadulterated unfiltered musical genius
A classic clip. A great setting, TAFE ‘How to write a song’ night class. Brilliant
So I'm late here, because this is one of the most triggering songs of my entire life.
I'm ready to listen now ❤️🤗
My favourite Alex Lloyd song :)
Same

This makes me cry all the time. It is seriously such an INCREDIBLE song. So well put together. It is truly remarkable

Yeh, agreed... though it took a few listens to grow on me, its definitely one of my favourites...

Beautiful song. Just realised that one of the guys in the class is the main guy from the video for "Dust Me Selecta" by Gerling :)
Thank you! I knew I recogised him, but could not think from where!
Such a brilliant song.

Lyrics
This house is your own,
Still living alone
It don't make you sad,
But I think it's good to be green
This summer is gone,
And spring don't belong,
The traces are here,
For long winter,
I miss the green,
It used to be clean
If you want to be free,
Please don't fall for me,
I could be anyone but your friend
If you open the door,
I'll give a whole lot more,
I could be anyone, anyone,
Yeah
Assumption is good,
Though not likelihood,
My feeling is true,
I want to be living with you
The truth it begins,
We're breathing it in,
With shadows of doubt,
In time we will all miss the green,
It used to be clean
If you want to be free,
Please don't fall for me,
I could be anyone but your friend
If you open the door,
I'll give a whole lot more,
I could be anyone, anyone,
Yeah
If you want to be free,
Please don't fall for me,
I could be anyone but your friend
If you open the door,
I'll give a whole lot more,
I could be anyone but your friend
Anyone, anyone,
Anyone, nah nah nah no
Anyone, anyone,
Anyone, yeah
If you want to be free,
Please don't fall for me,
I could be anyone but your friend
If you open the door,
I'll give a whole lot more,
I could be anyone but your friend
Anyone, anyone,
Anyone, nah nah nah no
Anyone, anyone,
Anyone, yeah
Seeing is believing,
The feeling is deceiving,
You know it's the truth
When you find that you can't talk
Leaving on this,
All into chaos
Seeing is feeling is
Seeing is feeling is you
Feeling is you woah
Nah Nah Nah no
Anyone Anyone
Anyone Yeah
Yeah good onya Geoff !! ... I mean Alex LOL
GREAT SONG !!!!
thank you for writing music that moves me
I CRIED TO.
This song was depressing for the delayed 18 year old I was at uni at the time.
It's wintry and melancholic.
Legend!!
Boy, I love this song.
I've loved this song since it first came out. I love this video too. I think the people in this video are extras rather than actors and they are the most expressive, likeable and relatable extras I have ever seen. The song and video are a masterpiece in my opinion.
Yes me too. (Have you seen my comment 8 months ago?)
It looks like it was made by an up-and-coming new director who probably went on to greater things I reckon, as it has a lot of cinematic qualities.
Just a pity that it didn't wrap up at the end somehow - by bookending or something.

Holy moly I've spent ages looking for this song! I heard it once and it took me ages to search for the right lyrics oh my. I'm happy now :)
Me too!
You can tell by this video how things have changed since 2001, overhead projectors and blackboards were still very common back then.
still a brilliant song all these years later

@@waynedunn1108 No worries. I've just found his greatest hits album on Spotify and downloaded it👍. A LOT of songs!
God I love this song. I'm no musician but does this song use 3/4 time? Like the timing of a Waltz or something? Very innovative and unusual.
just count 1 23 1 23 and you'll see
It's actually in a time signature called 6/8 - sounds like 3/4 but technically it's 6/8
It's just a great song.
