Absolutely haunting and so beautiful. Saw them open for The Cure in San Diego 1992. What a magical time. I was only 14...now 45. Crazy how time passes us by. Thank you, Cranes❤
IKR? I listened to this album when it came out and I was going thru a really tough breakup. I used to eat handfuls of opioid painkillers, Xanax, and barbiturates, while shooting heroin and drinking heavily while listening to this song.. Actually, I'm over that bitch and still do the drugs (except for the heroin, I'm a professional man now so I don't shoot H, but I really like my pills and liquor combo). Classic romantic heartbreak song, and that singer who sounds 12 years old is hot when you see her.
Real artists often, sadly, achive their success after their time. Cranes is a real band. Their eventual success is inevitable. A matter of time really.
For a shoegaze/dream pop band they are quiet popular. They are at least in the top 10 most famous bands of the genre. And I bet they made a modest living doing this full time.
I doubt they do. And I guess they all have a side job actually. I saw them in the small concert hall/bar in Belgium 15 years ago. They took a drink with the public after that. And I got an autograph from Allison :). But I doubt the number of ticket sales was even close to cover their travelling cost. They obviously do not do it for the money. They got a huge popularity boost after they were the supporting band on The Cure 's "Wish Tour". This kind of opportunity will surely not happen again.
I agree, Slowdive is another band that comes to mind... ridiculed and maligned in their time, only to become beloved icons 20 years later. I loved 'em from the beginning, and glad they finally got their due. I became aware of Cranes when they opened for the Cure in America, and still have 4 of their CD's and a couple EP's in my collection, but sort of forgot about them over the decades. Revisiting my old CD's now, they sound great to my ears!
Thank you Cranes for this beautiful song. I actually feel every lyric deep on my soul and it aches cause I really miss her and I still think of her as my best friend :(
came here thanks to my beloved friend, enjoying the lyrics and catchy melody, bit of chilly spring breeze coming through the window, the kind of breeze that you can not be sure of whether is it the summer at the door or winter. feeling privileged to breath, to exist... much love and peace to you all whereever you are, whoever you are hope life is treating you well✨️🍀🙏🏽🪄
You can clearly notice that Grimes took this beat to make her own songs, as well as took inspiration on Alison's voice. It's such a shame this group goes unrequited/unknown.
I feel those days without end when we used to be friends those summer days were spent in search of hope and happiness we used to while away our days in a beautiful haze I guess I knew one day that you'd be moving long away you said go back to your dream back to your wilderness go back along the walk maybe you'll find some happiness I wept a thousand tears for you for my love that came true and soon I realized I'd always dreamt it'd come to this And though that time passes by and that our lives have changed but our love was special our love was strange And though my heart broke in time it did mend except when I think about the time that we used to be friends
I saw Cranes play in San Francisco 29 years ago to a tiny crowd. I got to hang out with Ailson and Jim afterward. Such nice and genuine people. A couple of things Jim said to me that night still resonate with me, and I'm still a huge fan after all these years. I also remember they had a technical issue when they played Shining Road (my favorite song), so I got to hear it played twice!
I remember the Cranes supporting The Cure in Milan Forum Assago in the '90s. During the concert of the cure, I saw the lady singer in the middle of the fans, listen to the concert her too ! I ask if I could give her a little kiss, and she say yes ! what a gentle lady !
Hace mucho eran de mis bandas favoritas, ya no los escucho porque siento mucha nostalgia. Hace unos años le pregunte a mark francombe sobre el porque habían grabado en la cdmx y me dijo que fue por Alison, a ella le gustaba mucho México ❤
Para mi es una banda de culto, la escuché en el año 2000, cuando era estudiante de Antropologia social. Después de 21 años continúo escuchando su música y ésta agudiza mi melancolía. Una gran banda con la cual me identifico. Me encantó el dato históricos sobre Alison y su gusto por México, esto me hace vibrar alto. Un saludo.
@@mram_lucas yo los descubrí en algún momento de la uni. Por ahí del 2006-07 y creo que este fue el primer video que vi. La atmosfera es alucinante en la ciudad que me vio crecer...escuchar esta canción después de tantos años me provoca mucha melancolía, y eso es algo mágico de la voz de Alison. Que bonita banda y que chido que gusto que sigan activos.
Escuché por primera vez este grupo cuando estaba en la Universidad el siglo pasado, ien un casete!, que extravié y me olvidé del asunto. Apenas volví a escucharlo y es una gran sorpresa ver este vídeo, realizado en la Plaza Tolsá de la Ciudad de México; y pensar que quizá en esa misma época lo estarían grabando.
gods I thought I got all the Cranes tears wrung outta me years ago! Seems they just grow back if you keep them outta the playlist for a while... This band is unparalleled.
De aqui se inspiro otra de mi preferidas artistas actuales GRIMES. Exacto!! La musica de los 90s. es un libro de inspiracion para muchos artista futuros del momento. Y es natural ver generaciones actuales que se esten interesando en la musica de nuestra epoca o linea generacional de la tan llamada generacion X o Xenial, la cual puedo atreverme decir u expresar que aqui nace y se gesta la musica totalmente original, lo que antes llamamos hoy musica alternativa o independiente. Saludos amigos.

I remember when, during the Wish Tour of The Cure, I discovered into the crowd this singer. I gave her a little kiss, after having asked to her. She said yes, very kindly person. Cranes opened the concert of The Cure.
Saw them open for Cure at Miami, Florda USA back in 92-94. I'm thinking more like 1993. I remember the show vividly, but I don't remember the date. I'm thinking maybe somewhere around may 1993? I'm old, I forget. lol
god i miss my best friend. but we’re older now and she fell in love with a boy. i try not to think about the time spent with her because i’m afraid i’ll wear out the memories and they’ll float away. it hurts, and i love her.
i went to see them in a tiny venue in bristol in 2009, hoped they would be touring and recording again. If you want to hear similar listen to the russian band Chkbns

Never met anyone who likes this band and I doubt anyone my age listens to them. So I am here with all of you my beautiful friends.
tbm nunca achei
A crush sent me this after our thing didnt work out cause i said it wouldnt be worth... Now i feel the regret
Saw them open up for The Cures "Wish" Tour...they made quite an impact and they sounded soo good
I'm 48,found this band almost 30 years ago.....
I'm 49, my favourite band then and now still: haunting, pure, unique, incomparible. Playing live again in London later this year.
Absolutely haunting and so beautiful. Saw them open for The Cure in San Diego 1992. What a magical time. I was only 14...now 45. Crazy how time passes us by. Thank you, Cranes❤
Philly fan. Much love dear. Blessed be Johnny w Philly
Still gives me chills after all these years

The best videos of Cranes are those shot in Mexico, these one and Shining Road. Beautiful 💥
Do they have more in MX?
Goes so good with Atlantic drift on thrasher
that's was amazing!
Just found it from Atlantic drift....such a banger!
I always loved the creaking of the kick drum here.. amazing song, amazing band, amazing album
It's the hi hat stand that creaks like this when being opened and closed. Not the kick drum pedal.

If only they played music on the radio
For a shoegaze/dream pop band they are quiet popular.

I saw The Cranes in 1992 when they opened for The Cure in Sacramento, CA. I instantaneously took a liking to their music an had been a fan ever since!

People need to BUY the music of bands they like - then they can eat, pay rent, and make more music.
@@Zenboy23 X Æ A-Xii's mom
Agree
you are totally right!
Listen to me.... anyone who listens to this song, and feels something ... I love you.
I feel those days without end
when we used to be friends
those summer days were spent
in search of hope and happiness
we used to while away our days
in a beautiful haze
I guess I knew one day
that you'd be moving long away
you said go back to your dream
back to your wilderness
go back along the walk
maybe you'll find some happiness
I wept a thousand tears for you
for my love that came true
and soon I realized
I'd always dreamt it'd come to this
And though that time passes by
and that our lives have changed
but our love was special
our love was strange
And though my heart broke
in time it did mend
except when I think about the time
that we used to be friends
Cranes music cannot _BE_ more Perfect...
💘🖤💘
one of their best no doubt, still sounds very unique

Crece. ✌🏼
such a great song. it’s a shame these are underrated.
super love it in 2022 after seeing this was filmed outside of palacio de mineria in CDMX!!
I really like the vocals and the drums. The guitar makes it sound hazy, like you're reminiscing about the past. It really goes with the lyrics.
i love energy of this song
Amazing song! I can listen to it over and over again...
Agreed !!
Saw them in Las Vegas 94/95ish - one of my all time fave shows!
Too bad I missed that show as I lived in Vegas at that time. Did see them open up for the Cure in ‘92 in Phoenix.
I really love this song, this one was the second song I heard from cranes
Sush a beautiful song and so little views. This song was the epitome of my childhood days.
No existe mejor lugar que el centro histórico de la Ciudad de México para enmarcar esta ROLOTA de los grandiosisimos CRANES
México lindo y querido. Amo esta banda. Le enciendo la veladora.
Love this song!

I remember this song wouaw this song is nice to hear Alison shaw has a beautiful voice❤
Sad, Beautiful Song...Alison is a Goddess
One of the best.
That beat, that voice... what a great band.
Everytime I play this song ,I think of you up in heaven with big wing flying around ❤️
gods I thought I got all the Cranes tears wrung outta me years ago!
Seems they just grow back if you keep them outta the playlist for a while...

Que hermoso suenan los amo
I love this group!!!

Wish there was extended cut. Always fades out to soon!

Si, soy milenia y y sin duda para mi Gen X tiene la mejor música y series de televisión. Siempre original, crudo, moody…
Just discovered these... Wow!

back to your wilderness
go back along the walk
maybe you'll find some happiness
i wept a thousand tears for you
for my love that came true
and soon i realized
i'd always dreamt it'd come to this
After 'our love was strange', I think she sings 'and though my heart broke, in time it did mend'.
+sheridan whiteside I think you might be right. I have never owned a copy ov this album so I couldn't confirm lyrics. Thankyou kindly.
Sheridan whiteside I think you're 95% right, lol. Blame Alison's voice.
Love Ali Shaw's voice, adorable!

bem de muitas coisas que passa e nes lembranças que voltam não deixam duvidas
Absolute beauty
The Cranes as good as they come.Allison has such a riveting voice. Dangerous vibe in video.
Dangerous? Nope. Vibe? Nope. Also, they are called Cranes, not The Cranes.
Hermoso tema
