The melody. The harmony. The jangly Byrds-like 12 string guitar. The coming and going power chords. Wow! This is an absolute masterpiece of the shoegaze era and all of pop/rock quite frankly. Absolutely love it!
Ironically, i don’t think there’s any 12 string on this song. We could go by the guitars they use here (Gretsch and 6 string Ric), and i know they used a few cheap amps and Roland GP-16s for effects.
Rickenbacher guitars tend to split the signal of sound, creating an aural illusion of 12 strings with just 6. It's so crystalline and brilliant. I wanted a Rick ever since I was a toddler- no joke.
Eyes aflame, she ran away, I will be where I want to be. Need some space to be alone, Need a place to call my own. Can't stay here another day, Thank awhile, walk away. People wonder where she's gone, All they see's a strange shaped stone. They'll never invade her now.
We were such lucky people to get this band in our lives. Almost every song a gem. Indie kids before Indie meant shite-talking, headline-grabbing Gallagherisms.
Indeed they would but these past 2 generations haven’t a clue about music but if they did this would be top of the charts,but it’s way too superior for the charts👌😎
Drove past the sign for Sennen last year on way to Lands End. I smiled to myself. Beautiful song. Most underrated band ever! I used to own the Today Forever promo VHS. Still do, but God knows where it is.
Went there on holiday this year. Sennen (Cove) is a really beautiful place. It's basically Land's End without the commercial shit. Only a couple of miles away and still "land's end" anyway). Had food in a pub called First and Last Inn. Really good too. Love this track and always have done.
Cyrus Budd Thanks for the tidbit info. Was always wondering what the title referred to...and what the lyrics were talking about. I remember when the song came out...I looked up the word "Sennen" and the encyclopedia made a reference to some sort of stone? Haha! Anyways the video makes TOTAL sense now thanks...
I thought I was a huge RIDE fan. Ive seen them live back in 1991. However, I have never heard these songs. Unreal. One of the greatest bands ever .Even RIDE b-sides lay waste to most bands hits. I hope they play Cleveland, Ohio again.
I read about Ride in my high school newspaper in 1991. I thought, "cool, I'll check 'em out." Got distracted by 1991 and all the INSANE music that came out that year. Spent the next 3 decades going through that plus all I missed. Finally getting to Ride and it's safe to say they'll be joining R.E.M. as one of my all-time favorites. I missed out on so many years of enjoyment!
Eyes aflame, she ran away I will be where I want to be Need some space to be alone Need a place to call my own Can't stay here another day Think awhile, walk away People wonder where she's gone All they see's a strange shaped stone They'll never invade her now
I have genealogical roots in Sennen Cover and spent a couple of weeks there healing after a particularly rough time. I just found this lovely song. Can you tell me if the lyrics have meaning that connects to Sennen? If so, I'm missing them. Even so, I am adding this to my playlist. Just beautiful.
Eine WELTBAND!!! RIDE hat mich durch die 90er getragen und Alles schöner gemacht...von Drive blind bis ox4.....selten soo tolle Konzerte erlebt! Im Luxor in Köln.Sind ihnen unbekannt nachgefahren."Today" das 1.mal live gesehen und der Drummer!!...Ride wird für mich immer das Größte bleiben.
I've been following Ride music since I was a teenager. And the "RIDE III" album, recently released, is a fantastic rebirth of "Going Blank Again". So guys, well, well done. You've become yourselves again, with the beautiful noise you create. Thank you.
Con los ojos en llamas, ella escapó Estaré donde quiero estar Necesito un poco de espacio para estar sola Necesito un lugar al cual llamar mío No puedo quedarme aquí otro día Piensa un rato, se aleja La gente se pregunta a dónde fue Todo lo que ven es una piedra con forma extraña Ellos nunca la invadirán ahora
When I hear RIDE described as a "shoe gazing," band, my panties get really bunched up. It's like calling the Jam a "new wave," band. Just ridiculous. RIDE are a phucking rock band... and one of the greatest ever.
Sennen is a location in Cornwall. One of the most amazing beaches you’ll find. I don’t know where they filmed this video but it wasn’t at Sennen. Great toon though. I prefer Twisterella.
I agree. Oasis has some lovely pop songs but Ride has atmosphere, depth, and darkness. Everyone from Radiohead to Coldplay has been influenced by Ride.
JABA 82 But not as good as The Verve (check out their first album if you haven't heard it, it has a kind of similar vibe to Ride bu more psychedelic and soulful).

Loz Colbert's drumming was mind-blowing in the 90s, and Loz Colbert added so much to Ride's sound. He deserves a lot of attention.
best drummer of all time. then reni.
If Bonham and Moon had a child and that child was into hip hop...
His drumming does have a Reni vibe
@@carloberti9637 the stone roses drummer?
@@dulapeep5609 yes!
The Today Forever EP was peak RIDE for me.
For SURE
FACT! I had the video
When they sang together that was their BEST!!!!!
absolutely, the way they countered each other, yet complimented. i find myself trying to sing both parts at the same time, just cant help it.
Some bands have many fans.
Some bands have few fans.
And then, some bands have people who absolutely love them. Forever.
some comments have 35 likes
some comments have zero likes
and then, some comments sniff so hard up a butthole they don't know that . Um. Forever.
I know they’re just still soooo good.
makes me cringe....
slam!
True! I will never stop loving this band
A reminder of a simpler, more beautiful time.
James Cameron nope!
James Cameron yes!
James ~ Absolutely!
Any statement said in 2018 compared to 2020 sounds so innocent, anyway, LOVE Ride
Nah, you were just younger.
The melody. The harmony. The jangly Byrds-like 12 string
guitar. The coming and going power chords. Wow! This is an absolute masterpiece of the shoegaze era and all of pop/rock quite frankly. Absolutely love it!
Ironically, i don’t think there’s any 12 string on this song. We could go by the guitars they use here (Gretsch and 6 string Ric), and i know they used a few cheap amps and Roland GP-16s for effects.
Indeed - could be 6-string. I'm no expert - they SOUND like 12-string!
Rickenbacher guitars tend to split the signal of sound, creating an aural illusion of 12 strings with just 6. It's so crystalline and brilliant. I wanted a Rick ever since I was a toddler- no joke.
We were spoiled for choice with so much great music in the 90s. If only I could go back and relive it all ❤💚🕊️
there are times when you can just play songs like this and start feeling joy, simply for being alive
☺👍👍✌
one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
This band made my life feel better
Gotta find me a wormhole back to '92/'93.
Me too.
Shoegazer 93 and many more
Hell yeah.
Same!
Eyes aflame, she ran away,
I will be where I want to be.
Need some space to be alone,
Need a place to call my own.
Can't stay here another day,
Thank awhile, walk away.
People wonder where she's gone,
All they see's a strange shaped stone.
They'll never invade her now.
Of all the amazing songs that this band wrote, I think this has to be my favourite.
We were such lucky people to get this band in our lives. Almost every song a gem. Indie kids before Indie meant shite-talking, headline-grabbing Gallagherisms.
right??
Yes right ?!!!!!?.???
You dam right. 2023 still Riding
Fucking Shoegaze Anthem. This song would hold up if you released it today. Fucking masterpiece! Beyond their years these Boys were.
Jason TheDogCatcher hexactly the opposite
ignore that hater behind the comment thread, they would baby!
Indeed they would but these past 2 generations haven’t a clue about music but if they did this would be top of the charts,but it’s way too superior for the charts👌😎
I love the Today Forever EP and the fact that they made a promo video for each song that are very close visually. What a special band Ride were.
Probably the best EP ever made.
that "watery" riff is so addictive - long live Ride...
Drove past the sign for Sennen last year on way to Lands End. I smiled to myself. Beautiful song. Most underrated band ever! I used to own the Today Forever promo VHS. Still do, but God knows where it is.
I still have my copy in the attic
I want to be stucked in this song's never-ending loop of drums and guitars

Always loved the part at 1:59 when the layered guitar track comes in. Beautiful…
As a westcoubtry Shoegazer, this song is an absolute anthem!!!!!
YES YES Mate - Badass HOOJ W'C CHOON - A large splosh of the Thames Valley, in Sennen Cove !
Sounds like heaven ❤️
I have no words to explain how beautiful this song is, amazing piece!
Je n’aurai pas dit mieux. Le meilleur groupe de guitares d’Angleterre et de très loin 🎧🎧
Isn’t it?
Sennen Cove - little surfer's paradise in Cornwall...I just love it there but it will always be remembered because of this beautiful gem...
Cyrus Budd Thanks for the tidbit info. Was always wondering what the title referred to...and what the lyrics were talking about.

Philmod68 Overpowering song , isn't it?
were these guys actual surfers? Was curious, there is that legit vibe...
I live there, it's a stunning place.
Best band in my lifetime,makes you think of all that's gone on in your past & how to better your own future👌
best band ever.
Brilliant. So glad that they reformed and made 2 good albums.
Huge thumbs up to RideOfficial for putting these fantastic videos up!

Better late than never! It was easy to get lost in all the music of the early 90s.
REM was great when you couldn't understand Michael's vocals 😊
@@hanskloss1331I totally agree. I.R.S.-era R.E.M. is the best.
Few bands from this era hold up as well as Ride - TIMELESS - And their new songs are just as great as anything they ever did - Love them SO MUCH
More 90 British pop is impossible. I have known this band by Radio Paradise Radio after 2010 decade.
Absolute gold !!!! Hard not to feel emotional listening to this no matter how many times i've played it.
One of their best 5 songs...so simple but so perfect.
ohhh my young years, tears in my eyes, this is just perfect, listen kids and learn !,,
My brother bought Today Forever when it came out, just days after it was released. God bless him.
God Bless Him🙏🙏🙏
My favorite ever from RIDE
I love the song. I love Ride.
Eyes aflame, she ran away
I will be where I want to be
Need some space to be alone
Need a place to call my own
Can't stay here another day
Think awhile, walk away
People wonder where she's gone
All they see's a strange shaped stone
They'll never invade her now
Thank u!

Graham Hughes could almost fit Twin Peaks
I thought the same! also this makes me really thinks of the movie "picnic at Hanging Rock", if you have never seen it I recommend it :)
I always wondered what the lyrics were!
a veces desearía haber sido adolescente en los 90s y haber escuchado esta canción en sus inicios, me sentiría más feliz
What a time ( in music history) Makes me sad thinking back ( that it has past ) . So special .
This song meant everything to me when I was 19.
Now this is a true 90's boy band. Kids who could actually played awesome showgaze music.
I could have lived in the 90s forever...
Their music brings me so many great memories! It makes me wanna cry. I remember been a little boy in the 90’s and listen to them and loving them
So dreamy
Talking about perfect pop songs: this is one. A rather simple masterpiece with great sounds and flow. 🤘🥰👍
Ride and the nowhere album are quintessential shoegaze pop classics.. somehow manage to always return to this song 🎵
Eine WELTBAND!!! RIDE hat mich durch die 90er getragen und Alles schöner gemacht...von Drive blind bis ox4.....selten soo tolle Konzerte erlebt! Im Luxor in Köln.Sind ihnen unbekannt nachgefahren."Today" das 1.mal live gesehen und der Drummer!!...Ride wird für mich immer das Größte bleiben.
Thanks RIDE, your music has save me again...
And today again...
@@galiaheris :,3
I knew ride would come back again :)
I don't feel like music can get much better than this
One of the best tracks ever recorded !
beautiful song ♥ the guitar riff is addictive
Look how young and to be this gifted, light years ahead of everyone still, as far as I'm concerned.
Sooooo good. I am of British band origin. I was always destined to marry a British man.
a gorgeous lovely song.
I've been following Ride music since I was a teenager. And the "RIDE III" album, recently released, is a fantastic rebirth of "Going Blank Again". So guys, well, well done. You've become yourselves again, with the beautiful noise you create. Thank you.
WOW. i really adore ride!
Con los ojos en llamas, ella escapó
Estaré donde quiero estar
Necesito un poco de espacio para estar sola
Necesito un lugar al cual llamar mío
No puedo quedarme aquí otro día
Piensa un rato, se aleja
La gente se pregunta a dónde fue
Todo lo que ven es una piedra con forma extraña
Ellos nunca la invadirán ahora
Beautiful ❤️
So many memories listening to this fantastic band. Thankyou guys for making such beautiful music !!!!
Classic ride song ♥
Listening to this track from the place where Land's end somewhere after Sennen Cove. It is just few miles away from Sennen Cove!
I already love their first 2 albums l, now I gotta immerse myself in this EP. This is my favorite Ride song!!
Chills and tinglys up my arms and down my spine and all over my scalp. Thanks Ride.
When I hear RIDE described as a "shoe gazing," band, my panties get really bunched up. It's like calling the Jam a "new wave," band. Just ridiculous. RIDE are a phucking rock band... and one of the greatest ever.
Love this band! Exquisite.
great song! great band!
gorgeous
So looking forward to seeing this band tonight at the Crystal Palace Concert Bowl
I still have on vinyl the ep this came on. One album I will never depart with
What a gorgeous song. Meant to be played loud!
What a beautiful song!
Still astounds me - Great Band Always xxxxxxx
My favourite of the Today forever EP.
Ride are the most skilled players of all the shoegaze acts, hell I’d even say music in general. Only a few bands are this tight & locked in.
Awesome. Simply awesome.
Will always have love for Ride!
This song gives me life
Favourite song by them!
One of their best amazing 💋
Sennen is a location in Cornwall. One of the most amazing beaches you’ll find. I don’t know where they filmed this video but it wasn’t at Sennen. Great toon though. I prefer Twisterella.
je l'ai écoutée des centaines de fois celle là !!
Un des meilleurs groupes anglais encore à ce jour vu à Paris en février 2020 juste génial
My name is actually Sennen
A very rare name.
youre named after a very beautiful song
What a lucky
U Live in Seattle? If so, I know you.
@@Syaugeeksennentuchi
As with OX4 Mark's intro vocal is genius ❤️
I've never listened to an album so much in such a short time.
When that background guitar comes in at 2:00, it just pulls my heart out. How does music do this?
gillart99 i have the same feeling about that bit
what a great tune
How can 7 people not like this?!
Ride makes timeless music.
supremely sweet!
Ride much better than oasis.
I agree. Oasis has some lovely pop songs but Ride has atmosphere, depth, and darkness. Everyone from Radiohead to Coldplay has been influenced by Ride.
both amazing.
oasis don't even exist as far as i'm concerned.
JABA 82
But not as good as The Verve (check out their first album if you haven't heard it, it has a kind of similar vibe to Ride bu more psychedelic and soulful).
Amazing Song and album. I like them but not compare with Verve.
i love this song so much.
Lockdown brought me here, Thank god for small mercies 👊 Stay safe people
Unbelievably amazing ❤️
such a classic
Defo Ride's best song, fuckin' luv it! This, for me, is the epitome of early 90s shoegaze
Simply amazing! 💕
Entahlah sound dilagu ini dri awal sampai akhir terasa seperti sesuatu bagi saya.
Shame this was a B-Side. It was just as good as Vapour Trail and would have been tied for the best song on ‘Nowhere’
What a track
it's from the Today Forever EP actually
Only beautiful!!!
