the brothers are without doubt one of the finest exports that this small country has produced ,the hard work that they put in deserve global recognition, vocals, music,they have the lot looking forward to february.
How I wish I could be there, This song more than anything make me miss my homeland and especially my home city. Thoughts of Glasgow still bring pains to my heart, but also thoughts of joy. I'm glad my family is (mostly) still there. Let Glasgow flourish!
There's the tree that never grew, There's the bird that never flew, There's the fish that never swam, There's the bell that never rang. Learned this at primary School In Mount Florida 1966........................... Never forgotten When the Hampden roar was a roar...!
I cant understand why 3 months have gone by without any input on this, anyone with a smidgeon of Glasgow in them should love it. Come on Glasgow!!!!! XXX p.s. Feelin like am alone in lovin this?
Loved this song from the first time I heard it, I didn’t know for many years it was written by that much missed, legendary Dundonian Michael Marra. Hue and Cry made this sing their own.
@FenderKing67 Original Hue And Cry Backing singer was called Davie Preston from Craigneuk, near Wishaw. He continues to sing with a Free/Bad Company tribute band in the North Lanarkshire area ... a great singer. G
