I love idlewild!! Cast your minds back to the turgid shite that passed for guitar rock music at the time these lads came along.They made me want to see live music again.
they came about around the same time as coldplay. if only idlewild were the ones selling out stadiums instead of them boring twats maybe music wouldn't be as dull as it is today.
Brilliant. And the best bit from the OG is left put.(when they play 'in yhe round at the end of the song) A very underrated band along with The Delays.❤
Incase anyone hasn't noticed the lyrics "Syd Barret makes me laugh" Syd was the original lead guitarist and singer of Pink Floyd. I used to think he said "I sit back it makes me laugh"
Quality like this only comes along once a decade. Glad I was there to see em. My kids have got N DUBS and all the rest of the purile shite the charts are full of to remember . You dont know what yove got till its gone.
I was at the Barrowland '05 xmas gig, where I think they played this version, I loved it. I don't know why some fans are so bothered about the newer stuff, it's so amazing all of it and it can be moulded from frenzied rock to soft ballads perfectly..not many bands can do that successfully... Met Roddy too..has anyone else? Didn't like him much, a bit rude :(
what?! Hope is Important is a brilliant album! Although there is 2 duff tracks on it but the rest is brilliant. Reckon u should pump up the volume and have another listen.

I don't know if El Capitan is their biggest song, But it beats this song, I think, but I live in Canada so I dunno... I like a whole bunch of others more than this one
These guys make peaceful music! I believe thats why they haven't went anywhere in america like maria mena but their great! Sad how america dont have great ears

Honestly just realised this!!!
Syd Barrett's debut solo album was, "The Madcap Laughs". Perhaps that's the reference.
Oh dear, I have been singing "you said that it makes me laugh" for 22 years...whoops

cant decide on a best album, every single one is amazing in its own way!
Glad I found this.
Hope is Important is Idlewild's best album :)
love love love love love love it all and how present he is
another gem from these guys...i like all their albums...radio missed the boat on these guys, i dont understand why they are not played
One of their best, good sort of punky tune to it.
First live band I ever saw. Top education :)
Loved Idlewild - great live too.
Great version.
amazing again
Great find.

So rare to find a band that are actually better live
2020 anybody? 😁
ye man, almost 24 hours without a ciggy
2023

music for our generation.
Hear hear!!
melted at 1:56. Love this so cute.

Ahhh :)
yeah good find nick....these guys know what chords they are playing.
Én is szeretem
ROOOOOOOOONEY!!!
hahahahahahahahahaha!!!!! genius! Pure genius!
don't know why, but i really like this line "And when I argue Syd Barrett makes me laugh"
It doesn't make any sense that it has 2 thumbs down, pure evil.
is there an acoustic mp3 recording of this around anywhere?? such a good version

aw! they never done the "when i argue i see shapes SHAPES!" bridge section! lol
nah definitely not comercial, i think they just had a more mature aproach after Hope Is Important, they definitely didnt sell themselves out

Just watching Ralph McTell on Jools Holland - didn't touch his balls once. Class

Atom acustic
Anyone the chords?
Their 2 first albums were amazing. Now it has turned into commercial stuff...
Chords anyone? All the online tabs I've ever found for an acoustic version of this song are horrifically off the mark
Wow, Wayne Rooney has quite a nice voice.
no. this song is idlewild.
Puts shitty little bands like Coldplay and the Stereophonics into their place. Good shit Roddy.
These guys make peaceful music! I believe thats why they haven't went anywhere in america like maria mena but their great! Sad how america dont have great ears
