Discovered this song a few days ago, absolutely fantastic. Pretty much a perfect pop song. Shame it doesn't seem to be too well known. I assume most people who know this song are people who were there in the 90s.
I'm a massive Nirvana fan. So, when i was searching on Google "Kurt Cobain's favorite bands" i discover that one of the seven bands on the list is Teenage Fanclub. Kurt said that "they are the best band in the world". I didn't knew who they were, so encouraged with that quote i started to listening their music, and oh boy... what a beautiful band. Song by song they are getting better and better, this is the my next album to hear, and just to hearing this song i know it's gonna be exciting. Said that, it makes me kinda sad all the songs Kurt missed about them, he would have been proud for the band's musical direction.
+Dalis Chan if you like this you have no taste in music. this is serially mass produced boy band / soft rock music with a guy singing in a pleasant tone and barely any musical creativity.
" if you like this you have no taste in music." Pretty bold statement ontop of the rest of your completely subjective opinions. Music doesn't have to self indulgent and pontificating with musicians doing calculus on stage to be enjoyable.
I heard this last night playing in a club. Couldn’t Shazam it as it was too noisy but out of the blue Teenage Fanclub popped into my head. Gorgeous song.
I think I just did with All of you!, Proud to say I've seen Sloan many times Great band, and Meet Chris who is a really Nice easy going guy. I wish I could say I've seen TFC But they are up there with Sloan for me as well!. : )
Always a FAN. Use to cover / play your songs back in the day with SoundHavoc. Brutus, Don and Batin.Everyone can dig the music, especially the women. Was very surprise.Long live --- Teenage Fanclub
I loved it. But it was damn near a literal killer album for me on multiple occasions. While listening to the cassette, I got into an auto accident in my car. Then a couple years later, my friend had his cassette in. We got into an auto accident in his car. There was third incident. But I don't recall what it was. We deemed it a cursed album for us. But we kept listening anyway.
Of def hearing those there here,def the Beatles/Beach Boys beautiful harmonies.Always great to have a band with everyone can sing (yes the drummer too) so many band to mention but look at Queen they all sang and the drummer Roger Taylor even sang lead "I'm in love with my car" and can be heard clearly in many queen tracks due to his voice is higher than Mercurys operatic range.Also can forget Brain May vocals and even John Deacon did some vocals but didn't do that much in live performances he seemed to get buried in the mix
It's because Teenage Fanclub's biggest influence is Big Star (who you should definitely check out, one of the most underrated but influential bands of all time) who basically had a Beatles-meets-Beach Boys sound
Uma das melhores bandas dos anos 90. Excelente harmonia vocal, algo raro em grupos pós-anos 70. Não é à toa que o Teenage Fanclub era elogiadíssimo pelo Kurt Cobain.
They are still making music (they've made many CDs since this one), and they are well-known and loved in the U.K. and Japan. America, as a whole, just does not appreciate great music-- and I write that as an American.
You might be right, but as a Scouser in Denver, gotta say they were feeling a lot of love a couple of weeks ago round here. I was waiting all night for Gez classics though , and this, my favourite ever song.
If she lived in space, man I'd build a plane Out of luck so beam me up To hear her talking again She painted pictures That never dried Always tried to keep the feeling alive Need a crystal ball to see her in the morning And magic eyes to read between the lines I take a wrong direction From a shooting star In the love dimension Fading fast from taking this too far That summer feeling is gonna fly Always try and keep the feeling inside Need a crystal ball to see her in the morning And magic eyes to read between the lines I took a wrong direction From a shooting star In the love dimension Fading fast from taking this to far
For me, the classic Fannies lineup. The music from that period speaks for itself. Then again, pretty much every Teenage Fanclub period has basically ruled. So sorry to see Gerard (the author of this particular ditty) go, even if amicably, but pleased to see the group continuing after already enhancing our lives for 30 years. Already digging the upcoming single, one of Ray's songs: ruclips.net/video/AffiHHlAbWQ/видео.html

This is the anti-“Love Will Tear Us Apart”. Similar visuals with the door leading to the band playing in a large empty room. except complete opposite vibe
@Dickensian Kenwold All the Byrds did was essentially create folk-rock, psychedelic rock and then country rock. Three entire genres. But then, hey, you be you.
This band's got more hooks than a tackle box.
I got nothin' smart to say but, nontheless, good one fisherman.
It's that sweet it will rot your tooth!!!!
Well played.
Hell yeah brother.
best song of all time
speaks the truth
Nah 2nd, Star Sign is #1
Some people will never know WilliamMaranciMashups favorite song
But I do

30年前からずっと聴いてますよ、これからも
同じくです
How does this song not have millions of views? It is pure poptastic perfection.
you want it to have millions of views so itll suck?
Gerry, please come back! 90% of my favorite TFC songs are sung by you.
Gerry forever ♥️
That summer feeling is gonna fly
Always try and keep the feeling inside..
the mid-90's my halcyon days
I remember thinking years ago this song was utterly perfect. Haven't changed my mind.
great minds.
That drum roll during the refrain always gets me.😊

One of the greatest power pop songs ever made!
Massive jangly guitars make me very happy. Love this song.
jangle junkie
I miss the jangly guitar.
jangly. Underrated word. 2024 says so.
Classic pop beats and harmonies! One of the best!
Happy 25th birthday Sparky's Dream! Single released 25 years ago today and just as great as ever.
How can anybody not love Teenage Fanclub?
MichaelCasanovaMusic me. it's crappy. not music.
feritosman really?
+feritosman could you elaborate?

What a good band a load of people have missed this super band
Love the "Pictures of Lily" homage.
Brilliant track. Love the Fannies - Miss you, Gez.
This gentle, happy tune always gives me a mellow feel-good vibe.
Teenage Fanclub and Sloan are my two favourite bands with two of the bests bassplayers/singersongwritters ever!
They actually toured together ...how I wish I saw that show!!!
You're kidding me...that's like the perfect bill!
I just came from sloan coax me ha! Did we just become best friends??
I think I just did with All of you!,
Proud to say I've seen Sloan many times Great band,
and Meet Chris who is a really Nice easy going guy.
I wish I could say I've seen TFC But they are up there with Sloan for me as well!. : )
Yes!!!!!!! Sloan is so massively underrated! Navy Blues was the soundtrack to my 98’ and 99’..... Such great records.
Jangly genius wrapped up in a perfect pop song!
when I hear this song, I wish I could get back to the 90's and stay there forever...
Yup! I want time machine!
absolute beauty! the harmonies melt my heart
Awesome driving song!
can't believe this song is nearly 20 years old...so good.
In 5 years, it will be 30 years old. Crazy.
Last 3 chords of this song... Epic!
That minor chord towards the end ❤
Very under rated band. Super delicious guitars and bass. Yum.
日本版の13には19曲入ってて、しかもどれもいい曲でボリュームあって得した気分だった。
メンバーの評価は低いみたいだけど自分はこのアルバムが一番好き。あれ?グランプリかこれ
That summer feelin is gonna fly, always try and keep that feelin inside :)
Sad to hear of his departure from the band. Good luck with your future musical pursuits Gerard! Thanks for the memories.
Always a FAN. Use to cover / play your songs back in the day with SoundHavoc. Brutus, Don and Batin.Everyone can dig the music, especially the women. Was very surprise.Long live --- Teenage Fanclub
Britpop And Power Pop together
Pure Pop Perfection
=)
The layers of harmonies are intoxicating. The only other song that sends me in the same way is the Beatles' "You Won't See Me."
最高です。ありがとうございます。
"Grand Prix" killer album
concordo plenamente eles bons demais
+Kennedy Rezende você já ouviu seu material anterior (sorry if I didn't translate well)
I loved it. But it was damn near a literal killer album for me on multiple occasions. While listening to the cassette, I got into an auto accident in my car. Then a couple years later, my friend had his cassette in. We got into an auto accident in his car. There was third incident. But I don't recall what it was. We deemed it a cursed album for us. But we kept listening anyway.
Keep hearing Beach Boys references, I'm feeling some Beatles!
Rock On TFC!!!
Of def hearing those there here,def the Beatles/Beach Boys beautiful harmonies.Always great to have a band with everyone can sing (yes the drummer too) so many band to mention but look at Queen they all sang and the drummer Roger Taylor even sang lead "I'm in love with my car" and can be heard clearly in many queen tracks due to his voice is higher than Mercurys operatic range.Also can forget Brain May vocals and even John Deacon did some vocals but didn't do that much in live performances he seemed to get buried in the mix
I hear The Who all over this song.
It's because Teenage Fanclub's biggest influence is Big Star (who you should definitely check out, one of the most underrated but influential bands of all time) who basically had a Beatles-meets-Beach Boys sound
@@Nico_Tena Yes, especially Pictures of Lilly.
Just saw them in SF recently....what a great show! Thank you guys!
O Teenage Fanclub e o Gyn Blossons foram muito injustiçados nos anos 90. Simplesmente as melhores bandas, mas grande massa sequer conhece.
Pure pop perfection!
Uma das melhores bandas dos anos 90. Excelente harmonia vocal, algo raro em grupos pós-anos 70. Não é à toa que o Teenage Fanclub era elogiadíssimo pelo Kurt Cobain.
最高のギターポップ
A bright shining light in a world of sorrow
Your music is very good
Spangly jangly perfection: 9/10
McLovin on drums: 10/10
They are still making music (they've made many CDs since this one), and they are well-known and loved in the U.K. and Japan. America, as a whole, just does not appreciate great music-- and I write that as an American.
6 years later, as an American, this still holds true!! We are the few and lucky!!
Just about the perfect song. Every time l hear this it brings a smile to my face. Great album too Grand Prix.
What a dumb fucking OP. This band has plenty of American fans 😂😂😂
I was surprised they played on snl once. At the least, kurt cobain was a notable fan so that gives them some form of recognition in america.
You might be right, but as a Scouser in Denver, gotta say they were feeling a lot of love a couple of weeks ago round here. I was waiting all night for Gez classics though , and this, my favourite ever song.
Heard this song in A Birder's Guide to Everything! Wonderful sound!
best song ever
Just... sublime... my heroes!
Grand Prix is the best album of the 1990s. I will go to my grave defending that.
that's the 90's ! am talking about
I broke the LIKE button.
Love em, I'll never "be over" this.
If she lived in space, man
I'd build a plane
Out of luck so beam me up
To hear her talking again
She painted pictures
That never dried
Always tried to keep the feeling alive
Need a crystal ball to see her in the morning
And magic eyes to read between the lines
I take a wrong direction
From a shooting star
In the love dimension
Fading fast from taking this too far
That summer feeling is gonna fly
Always try and keep the feeling inside
Need a crystal ball to see her in the morning
And magic eyes to read between the lines
I took a wrong direction
From a shooting star
In the love dimension
Fading fast from taking this to far
AHHHHH!!!!!! This is SUCH a good song!!!!!!
sounds perfect for morning listening
Just scored tix to see them at the Teragram in February! Haven’t seen them since the Bandwagonesque tour at the Roxy back in the day.
sound like RIDE 「like a day dream」
very good !
this is so awsome sound!!!!!!!!
Nice little video nod to Love Will Tear Us Apart
This song lift me up¡ im happy to find tfc

On Repeat 🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍~YourAdorable💓💓💓

Tbm
Papai Lerê Eu também! Aí que conheci a melhor banda do mundo!
clear! You're right.
Nice
Jeff Ruch really nice
+Jeff Ruch extremely nice
This is the anti-“Love Will Tear Us Apart”. Similar visuals with the door leading to the band playing in a large empty room. except complete opposite vibe
Yeah 🤘🤘🤘
January 2023.
Dang, does this guy age? 👍🏻
Radio, Don't Look Back, I Need Direction, Star Sign, about a third of them.
eternal
Teenage Fanclub finished what The Byrds started
I would think REM did that but this band is also nice
What, Get famous off Bob Dylan?
@Dickensian Kenwold entitled to your opinion but oh very wrong
@Dickensian Kenwold All the Byrds did was essentially create folk-rock, psychedelic rock and then country rock. Three entire genres. But then, hey, you be you.
Dickensian Kenwold Wrong, but ok.
Siri: play the power pop.
o que seria de mim sem teenage fanclub...
Gerard Love could change his name to Songcraft, and no one would argue.
if she lived in space, man.
power pop at its apex
