- With all this interest in Duffy at the moment its forced me to dig out some of my Bernard Butler videos .
Duffy related as ex Suede guitarist Bernard Butler is her song writer and producer as well as being a fantastic guitarist .
His songs always managed to bring out the best in Mc Almonts voice in thier partnership and they do the same for Duffy .
Im also a great lover of Phil Spector and Roy Wood style of "wall of Sound" productions and Bernard Butler seems to be able to always pull it off and remind me of that stuff.

One of the best and most accurate descriptions i ever heard was a music critic who said that when MacAlmont opens his mouth a cathedral falls out of it, his voice is amazing
One of THE most underrated songs of the last gazillion years. Bloody fantastic!
Blur? Oasis? THIS defined the 90's, for me.
Stunning song.
How can a breakup song sound so beautiful? Pure perfection.
This was my decade... and it will never come again.
Ever.
One of the best songs ever... Spector did this in his dreams... Butler is a hell of a producer but the voice of David McAlmont is where its at... this band deserved better than they got... 10 years too early I guess...
I have been listening to this all day - it's incredible, the vocal, the arrangement, the crescendo, the swell of the song, it keeps going, the lyrics, the performance - that guy fascinates me.
I never tire of this song. Loved it back in the day, and love it now. It still gives me goose bumps. Its the whole package, the voice, the strings, everything. One word..WOW
This song is glorious and it's very special to me in that it helped me through a tough time with a PSYCHOTIC ex-girlfriend who put me through hell! The chorus sums it up perfectly!
That voice! A gift from God - straight up. He reminds me of Grace Jones, the way he moves. And genius writing. Those lyrics are just classic. Food for the soul. Wonderful. I am so with you on this, macca5678. Has got to be re-released. Pure, raw talent like this being left on the sidelines, with so much crap being played right now - it's just criminal.
this will never get old, its pure genius.....
One of my favourite all time songs. So much power in a song. Blows me away every time.
My neighbours are sick of hearing me try to hit these high notes as I sing-along-a-David! My favourite song ever....and glad to see Mr McAlmont with a bit of meat on his bones these days....BTW, his 2011 rendition of this is spectacular....
when he hits that note with the word "nooow" i get chills. amazing
This song is like transforming this world into heaven for like 3.59 mins. Everything so uplifted, flies and fluid. Why people don't make music like this nowadays.
this is what music is all about. A great bass and keyboard backing, good rythm and great lyrics. It's a shame they don't make them kie they used to. Classic Tune.
this is probably the best song ever written and a fantastic singer as well ,,,,,,,,,,,,,my all time favorite
Having seen them live at The Cockpit in Leeds I can vouch for how truly AMAZING David Mcalmont's voice sounds live..and what a great show the whole band put on!
Shivers up the spine every time i hear it. Fantastic
This song should be re-released it's brilliant. There is a lot of naff music and poor artist's around at the moment. True talent can stand the test of time and I'm sure there will be many people of all generations who will appreciate this fantastic duo.
loved this for YEARS- the one song guaranteed to make me sing it out loud at the top of my voice - it is just so unusual and poweful!!! yeaheaheaheah!!!
A truly amazing vocal and song too. 10/10
Bought this album (well tape ahem!!) when it first came out, my friends thought id lost the plot but i thought it was genius, it was ahead of its time. Amy, Duffy, Paloma take note!
Simply brilliant, how can anyone dislike this?!?
Angelic voice, great production - absolutely underrated classic. And the song that defined my graduation
Is the greatest song of all time? YES
Simply brilliant
hairs on end here too - such an amazing voice
Love it love it love it. One of the only songs that can put a smile on my face even when Im feeling sad. QUALITY!!!!!!
Folds my heart every time I hear it...one of those tracks...
used to love this when i was younger.. still do!
fabulous! his voice is incredible :)
This sums up all that is great about Bernard Butler- from the beautiful, sad, harrowing music of Dog Man Star to the beautiful, happy, upbeat music of 'Yes', in only a year.
Fantastic Voice! I so wish I had a singing voice like his! Unfortunetly I sound like a geek when I sing!
my favourite song of all time. literally! this needs to be re released.
David Mcalmont is touring next year I cant wait.
Awesome! I never saw the video when it was originally released.
I love singing along to this this one...makes me feel great doing it....bit like when i sing along to Ben Folds Five " Song For The Dumped"!!
Fantastic song. F A N T A S T I C performance.

Loved this song for YEARS but have never seen a video of them before! Fantastic voice
Been many years since I've heard this and it still sounds great !
An absolute peach of a song! A beuatiful piece of music and lyrics. Came out at just the right time, and has spoken to me on many occasions ( Unfortunately) Actually, this is needs to be heard more, why does great music go unoticed! Grrrr
What a tune! Songs like this re,invigorate my passion for life! Don, t know why but it does
I loved this when it first came out. It would do well as a re-release. This sound is big at the moment.
Absolute classic .... wow!!
just stumbled across and heard this for the first time and im blown away! wot an artist and wot an amazing track! why cant we hear music like this any more? brilliant!!
What a stunning song
As good now as it was back then! Fantastic!
I remember watching top of the pops with my blank tap in the video, making my compilations, it was hard work those days before youtube, I caught this song and played it to death,I haventt heard it in about 14, 15 years, but its a fantastic song,so nostalgic, thankyou
amazing song fantastic voice and great guitar, whats not to love??!!
been looking for this tune forever
Goosebumps from beginning to end...
Superb. Never fails to provide a lift.
So great to find this on here- loved it when it came out, still love it.Just what I needed to hear right now- probably the best "f*ck you for dumping me" song ever....
i remember bernard butler leaving suedeand thinking what the hell he's doin, he answered me with this classic though!!
this sends shivers through me...adore it..
Soooo happy to have found this song again. I saw the video once on Z-TV in Sweden and never found out who they were or the name of the song. Then I never heard it again until now. Downloaded ripped and safely saved on 3 different hard discs, I even ordered a copy through Mp3va. Brilliant clip and great arrangement and McAlmont is a great singer.
Yep, I remember this one very well, excellent song!
I'm in a hot room with the log fire blazing and this record still manages to send a chill down my spine...quite simply one of the greatest pop songs ever!
IMHO david mcalmont is possibly THE greatest lost secret in UK pop music in the last 15 years - truly ASTONISHING voice and never got the acclaim he deserved
Absoloute top notch feel good song.
Never fails to cheer me up !
A real good feel sound,makes you feel good when you hear this sound
I feel well enough to tell you what you can do with what you've got to offer
