This was my first encounter with this band and they've been with me ever since... great live band awesome songs, they should have been massive but in a way i am glad they're just ours👍👍👍 Glad they're back!!
I remember seeing this....i actually thought it was about 1987 or 1988 as I was watching Meadowbank Thistle at the time and I remember hearing it at the late Cltdebank's ground, Kilbowie Park. Damn, those were the days. Kilbowie was a real Scottish football experience !! Thanks for the memories.... those #HalcyonDays...👌
lol craig,meadowbank.from ferrantis to a poor livingstone.1 of the best bands who never seemed to to noticed apart from the few who loved their music./
Drumming not to technical to risk. Yes musicians get pissed off on live tv performances. Sometimes you wanted to do an intimate version. Sometimes you get on a show and there isn’t the budget for a full rig.
Way ahead of its time!
Was thinking the same as I listened today after many years. Predicted much of modern day society

I've watched this so many times. It gets better every time just watching Justin's shy smile.
WOW 2024 SO EFFORTLESS SO SIMPLE SO AMAZING
Made one of the best live bands ever mine! Shocking!!
As cool today as it was back then.
The song is a bit of a rant. But when I hear it I love it.
Even Terry is miming
For Steve
This is obviously not live and is actually the studio recording.
nout happens xx
would it really have been too hard to play it live?
The drumming is too technical to risk playing live
The musicians don't get a say, honestly a lot of them used to get pretty pissed off
No, the band wouldn't have been able to handle it

BBC were shit for making everyone mine.even if you played the triangle you had too mine!
Challenge - find a Del Amitri performance video which does NOT, at some time, feature Iain with a beverage in his hand .......

Here is a live version of this song.
for some reason this is lip synch to the recorded single...... Del Amitri are more than capable of doing it live but hey TOTP in the 90's levels eh?
