Great song - originally written for his then new born son, Riley, who now plays rhythm guitar in the band. What must it be like for him, playing a song written for you, and to hear everyone singing along to the words?!
In 1996 I went to Ibiza with a second hand discman and a scratched sleeveless cd of jolification that I played on loop for a week. Nearly 30 years on, I listen to jolification every holiday without fail. The warmth, memories and sanctuary that album gives me is like nothing else. Fantastic band
This was a passionate performance by Broudie. Really loved the way he belted 'nothings certain' and the way he was driving the band and song on. A classic song being elevated.
By the time this was released there were so many iconic tunes that became anthems in history so when I first heard this on the radio I knew that there was something about it that I thought that we would be hearing it for a long time to come and quite rightly so!!!!
@@adamwilliams5372 the only good thing about brissy is the weather in my book....I'm an obsessed brit fan....never been cos can't afford! But hopefully one day!
@@traceyross8528 you can live more life because of the weather though. The winters here are long and miserable and by the end every man and his dog is depressed. But it's where I live and I still love it
@@adamwilliams5372 I'm a kiwi so I been through many long cold winters before, the cold doesn't bother me one bit.....it's the disgusting humidity we have in the summer that I hate! Lol
@@greatleapforwards Agree with you, but prolly I know it first time along with the "Britpop" era of 1994-1997 (Even tho Cloudcuckooland were already a hit from 1990)
Indeed and a classic tune too to go with the riff at start used for Goal of Month. Its goal C for me ring 0898 etc etc but I live in Rep of Ire so could not enter.
i remember the sad chinese song back in 96 ... "you showed me" how cute is his son ... he can manage the band for solo with the same name ... papa is too old 30 years later remember this band is from 1988 dang
I can still hear The Great Des Lynam saying pick them in the right order 1 2 and 3 ! This was immense for Match Of The Day in the 90's when football meant more 👌⚽️🎸🎙 Lightning Seeds.
As a father, how fuc£ing cool would it be to write a song to celebrate the birth of your son that the whole nation takes into their own consciousness for whatever reason? (footballing or otherwise) and they are still singing it when your son is probably older than when you wrote it?
Lightning Seeds have always been a sober, safer, Syd Barrett. Slightly less dazzling, more polished and thoughtful, still amazing. 9.9/10. Love this record so much.
Sadly, they've been playing this with completely the wrong beat for years, plus it's missing large parts of the instrumentation. The original had an Accordion and strings playing the top melody during the non vocal parts of the son, and of course Ian's voice has gone.

Loved the father and son nod at 00:19 must feel amazing!
El motivo mas importante para que the lightning seeds, continue.
i honestly didn’t know this until reading this comment a month or so back…his son must be buzzing!!!
Maybe his son should have a go at singing as Ian is wank
Nice story😮

No offence buddy but nobody cares about what you did in 1996 haha 😆
@@NellyGandhellaclearly they do but not about your comment

Thought that was James Dean Bradfield?
it’s everything to me this song!!! childhood GOTM tune, not a care in the world…class!
We loved playing the lightning seeds on Live 105 in San Francisco!
Love this. Takes me back to the 90s again.
As a Riley - I’m living this…❤
THIS its music like this that evokes happy times and great memories. LOVE THIS
One of my all time favourite tunes for street gigs. Thanx guys n gals..❤❤❤❤
Forever cool how Riley is now there playing
So many great bands from the 90s at Glastonbury Festival this year
I certainly remember this song... It has been over 25yrs.. Very happy mood.. Fantastic.. Cheers!
Playing a song written about you on Glastonbury main stage..I would say very few of us will have the life of Riley!
Takes me back to my childhood. Brilliant song.
The girl on synths has a great voice. Female vocals definitely add to the song.
Great football music, it's match day in the boozer having a few beer's perfect coz it's pure and simple everytime👍👌
Never knew he wrote this for his son❤
I did not know they were still going, Ian Broudie and co. Nice to hear they are still rocking.
One of the, if not the, best singer/songwriters of their generation
Amazing band, amazing song and an amazing performance. What a happy happy audience.
This was a passionate performance by Broudie. Really loved the way he belted 'nothings certain' and the way he was driving the band and song on. A classic song being elevated.
I seethis and it reminds me of the set with Terry Hall in London 2014, Sorrow, Sense etc. Awesome
Great music, amazing vocals and band !
Killer music, but I don't what's more out of tune, the harmonium or the singer's talk-singing.
@@vampiresforeslThere,s always one yes you.The crowd love it and that,s all that matters.
This is brilliant!!❤❤
Proper tune.
By the time this was released there were so many iconic tunes that became anthems in history so when I first heard this on the radio I knew that there was something about it that I thought that we would be hearing it for a long time to come and quite rightly so!!!!
I was pleased it was picked up by Football Focus and MOTD. Much better than the other football song they did, it's never coming home, get over it😂
Saw the Seeds when they were in their 20's at a music festival outside Philly. Incredible.
You'd have a job, Broudie didn't start touring with the lightning seeds until he was 36 😂
How great it must be to play guitar in fronted by your dad. Obviously the songs significance helps too.
Love the tone on Riley's guitar.
UNDERRATED BAND
Hardly!
I was at the front left of the stage and loved this set great way to kick Glasto off for me personally loved the Lightning Seeds in the 90s
I'm sooo jealous!!!! From brisbane....long way from Glastonbury!
@@traceyross8528 my aunt lives in brisbane. I'd trade glasto for that!

Fantastic, always find the time ...love the music.
Thanks for still uploading Britpop gems, BBC!
they weren't really britpop. They were just indie. 2 of their biggest albums came out before britpop even became a thing
@@greatleapforwards Agree with you, but prolly I know it first time along with the "Britpop" era of 1994-1997 (Even tho Cloudcuckooland were already a hit from 1990)
TERRIFIC! 👏👏👏

lol I saw it too …I was thinking if anyone noticed it too 😂
That'll do me! Love from the Gatta!
It´s coming home
love it, so cool!

Most underated band on the planet EVER!!

Please go and tour Ireland
Ian Broudie is a musical genius.

nice to see him having such a good time, i remember him saying he used to feel uncomfortable on stage :')
Chicago's in the house!
👍❤
IB is one hell of a song writer
So grounded and loveable ... inspired me too to create "Space Buoy - Bowie's Love Child' on You Tube
Esta cancion sono mucho en la radios en Chile en los 90’
Bless the 90s

Power Station in that band.
A rock gallop by that guitarist.

Top band

I loved💖 ♬♫♬♫👏👏👏🙏💖
It’s Shearerrrrrrrahhhhhh! Goal!
They were without a doubt one of the best acts this year, bring them back next year!!!
It’s just goal of the month on match of the day
2:08 drummer able to drum and move hair out of eyes at the same time. Must have super powers.
You have heard off foot pedals I presume?
@@iankp5901 no because they don’t exist. Stop bullying me. Hate speech is not ok.
Hate speech for asking if you realised bass drums are played with the feet???
J'adhère ....musique 🎶🎵🎶🎵
👍👍👍👍👍💥😊
Riley on lead guitar
Rhythm. His dad plays lead
This song is so pure. Wait. That's the other song.
I remember the TV sitcom of the same name.
❤❤❤ argentina
i dont mind...i get the feeling...
Lightning Seeds have always been a sober, safer, Syd Barrett. Slightly less dazzling, more polished and thoughtful, still amazing. 9.9/10. Love this record so much.
Award for best actor in a supporting role, the woman with the pink top on her bloke's shoulders. Pretty good all round. Got the tape in the shed.
...Me recuerda mucho a la canción " Temptation" de New Order🥲
Tune
Imagine your dad writing a song about you, only for all of Glastonbury to sing it back to you as you play it with him
One of the great underrated English songwriters
Is Broudie trying to get a Bo Diddly rhythm going here? Shame no accordian, but never mind.
What would Glasto be without the 90s?

Saw the lightening seeds last night supporting the Who. Spoiler alert! They were better than the who
Yes definitely needed a woman's voice.
Should have been on main pyramid stage. They have some absolute shite on the pyramid and these legends didn't make it... absolute joke

Incredible song writer.

A Snookerium, yes.
Need to record new tunes
OMG why they don´t the magical 90s synths from their songs anymore? This is not like the originals unfortunately...
Great songs by this band. Singing Is well ropey tho, let’s be honest
Sadly, they've been playing this with completely the wrong beat for years, plus it's missing large parts of the instrumentation. The original had an Accordion and strings playing the top melody during the non vocal parts of the son, and of course Ian's voice has gone.
This is a 80s band, yet most of the band members were born after 1990.
Imbattibili
