saw them live and i can still remeber john squire was high on Heroin but still played like a fuckin GOD. must have been in 97 in stockholm on a small club. Gig of my life
@@horridhenry1805 Just a real Shame about the way some band members who can't agree on anything Falling out and arguments over music, sound and ideas cause problems The Smiths were a great British band, but after reading a book about them I don't like Morrissey, elusive and a real loner He might of been a terrific Song writer in the studio and loved on staged, but he struggled with record deals over the years Morrissey, should give up Johnny Marr, is a charming man and more respect from journalist and fans
@@empireman1077 drummer Mike Joyce and bass guitar Andy rourke nievely didn't get a contract sorted with morressey and Marr they thought it was an even 25%split but morressey wanted to give them 10%the years rolled on Marr become tired of all the weight on his shoulders and morressey was just a big girls blouse that wanted it all his own way but without morressey being an intelligent eccentric loner the smiths would never have happened his song writing is unique BUT THE SMITHS RAN THEIR COARSE THEY WASN'T MEANT TO BE A ROLLING STONES THEIR TIME WAS UP....... AND MORRESSEY WENT ON TO BIGGER AND ALMOST BETTER THINGS.
@@horridhenry1805 I only liked Morrissey with the Smiths I think Johnny Marr, was able to be more adventurous with his career Being a member of Electronic gave him a more opportunities than the rest of the Smiths Long live the Smiths 😎🤝
The mid to late 90's and early 2000's were really a golden age for British music. It was a conveyor belt of bands producing classics like this. If youre from the 90's youlll remember many classics from these bands The Seahorses, OCS, Supergrass, Sleeper, Travis, Suede, Echobelly, The Verve Not all time greats in terms of band longevity, but the songs they did make will live on forever!
Absolutely, and other bands that only made 1 or 2 albums but who also wrote some classic songs (like Geneva, or Longpigs) - so much competition at the time that's it no wonder some can be 'forgotten'!
@@garysmith5025 I never knew about that, this is sad. We, the fans, lost a great band for ego wars. That´s the story of the Stone Roses reloaded, tragic...
Seen the Seahorses at T in the park in the 90s walking down to see them and this was playing ❤️ One of those times in life you will never experience again it was magic
I was 15 and remember listening to it on the school bus, good times! Time peaked for me in 2003-04, it's been nothing but downhill from there! Would be good to return to the 90s, early 00s and stay there!
Tonight I’ve seen Chris Helme live, and he was AMAZING!! What a gent as well! I took a ticket from 1997 when I saw the Seahorses at Manchester Academy & he signed it for me and we had a good chat! He was such a lovely guy tonight! Girlhood dream from my 20s fulfilled! X
It is a catchy tune that reminds me of first hearing records by the beloved ' a hundred words' or, house of love 'shine on & Many more songs of youth, grace, wisdom and simply over a relationship 👍🍺🥴
I was at John’s crib when they’d just finished recording this,,, how is it possible that a tune as great ethos can just disappear ???? One of my favourite noises 🙏🐶
Saw these guys at Glastonbury in the cold and mud, weather was awful so were the Seahorses, apart from John Squire that is, he and The Stone Roses rule.
Bullshit like. Chris helme did an accoustic solo version which was good (his song originally like and decent in its own right) but not a patch on the seahorses version with squire influence. C'mon man be serious??!!
@@craigkennedy781 watch one of the Seahorses documentaries. Chris Helme moaned that at Glastonbury he couldn't hear himself or the band because of Squire's amps were so loud and that Helme's teeth would ache from the vibration. Squire was brilliant but it was all about hearing him.
I bet Chris has a list a mile long !!! Sad really. He is an awesome artist. I'm glad he still went on & performed his songs. I've seen many on here & he has STILL got it ✌️❤️
I'm a youth of today, unfortunately. Stone Roses, Oasis, Seahorses, The Charlatans, Happy Mondays, Inspiral Carpets, Primal Scream etc. Long live the 90's.
2022 - it's 25 years- a quarter of a century since this belter was released providing great happiness amongst #Madchester and #Britpop fans desperately seeking more Rosesesque material so when John Squire rocks up with his new band #TheSeahorses in 1997 and debut album #DoItYourself was subsequently released to praise but truth be told it's a great album BUT it ain't ' Roses Great '..... But still, here's to a cracking track and thanks for the memories and fabulous gig at #GlasgowBarrowlands on 22-DEC-1997 - 25 YEARS AGO 😲😲😲⏳️🕐✈️#timeflies
How would you feel if I was to kneel right down At your feet? Right now Is the way it's going to be from now until forever Let's have less of getting clever with me Who would you blame for blowing the flame right out Is it me? There is no doubt I can do what I want to do from now until forever Let's have less of getting clever with me You're wasting your time and my time as well L-l-living a lie, I guess that time will tell You're making excuses for the things you've never done Walking in circles, blinded by the sun Blinded by the sun Who would you blame for blowing the flame right out Is it me? There is no doubt I can do what I want to do from now until forever Let's have less of getting clever with me You're wasting your time and my time as well L-l-living a lie I guess that time will tell You're making excuses for the things you've never done You're walking in circles, blinded by the sun Blinded by the sun I don't mean to sound unkind to you You'll just have to go and find something else to do And don't ask me what went wrong The list goes on and on and on and on The list goes on and on and on and on The list goes on and on
This song never gets old, Powerful More that a poetry, Don't get blinded by the sun, But it's so easy. I want my liberty let me be free, At the moment I'm not into a relationship, But in the end it wasn't me it was you, Please don't ask me what went wrong the list goes on and on ..
AMAZING SONG. A masterpiece. Funny tidbit: I got this amazing album at a 99 cents store more than a decade ago, still one of my best finds ever, a true gem.
We were driving back to London from T in the Park one year in a non-stop journey and this came on the radio what felt like every 10 songs and woke us all up. 98? There was a World Cup final too but I was too shattered to watch it. Drugs eh? I loved 96-2012
I'm looking for a song between the mid 90's till 2005, I always thought it was Supergrass but it's not. I only remember the end of the song with the lead signer (a young man) singing haha-haha what-a-ta and then a men choir reapeting haha-haha what-a-ta with a depper voice, thanks a lot
Fantastic album. Squires guitar playing on this tune is phenomenal. Can’t believe it’s only got 2.1 million views 😮
Things get re uploaded , this has been around long enough for that to happen a few times , remember seeing a version with 8 mil views
Still banging this masterpiece out in 2023, one of the truly great tunes of the 90s ❤️
Great song from a fantastic Album
Amazing album, how were they not a bigger success
Had to buy another copy on vinyl.
They probably would have been if it wasn't due to the arguments within the band@@damwonstyx1169
2024 o7
Indie bands of the 90's had such swagger and style by the bucket load, this blows todays music into the weeds. #Bringbackthe90's
Yep!! I'm 51 now and not stopped listening for one minute. I look at the fuckin embarrassment they call music now and acto feel sorry for them!!
Still true in 2019
I was 16 when this gem came out. Best years ever in the 90's.
Not an ‘indie’ band seeing as they were signed to a major label.
@@TheMusicalElitist that comment proves that you are just like your picture, a chopper.
Absolutely blinding album. Takes me back to the mid-nineties when everyone was happy.
Joe B "blinding" I see what you did there
I feel the same
Joe B it's about hating Ian brown though 😂
Agreed, the whole album was brilliant....good memories.
Dani Kat 96-99
Bands like these will never come about again, loved this era of music
Probably the greatest song that no-one has ever heard..
What a song,and yes you are more than likely correct,as loads of punters somehow never ever clicked with The Seahorses for whatever reasons,,,sadly
Just watched him acoustically and was amazing supporting Shed Seven! He’s so humble and surprised we knew the words. Top man!!
saw them live and i can still remeber john squire was high on Heroin but still played like a fuckin GOD. must have been in 97 in stockholm on a small club.
Gig of my life
We have!
I still have their cd :o)
This song helped me through a dark time in my life in fact it saved my life
Hope you've had a great year!
WOW..... IT'S A TOP TUNE M8 SO PLEASED YOU DIDN'T LISTEN TO THE SMITHS.......... BEST BAND OF ALL TIME THO 🎶🎶🎶🎶👍🏻
@@horridhenry1805
Just a real Shame about the way some band members who can't agree on anything
Falling out and arguments
over music, sound and ideas cause problems
The Smiths were a great British band, but after reading a book about them
I don't like Morrissey, elusive and a real loner
He might of been a terrific
Song writer in the studio and loved on staged, but he struggled with record deals over the years
Morrissey, should give up
Johnny Marr, is a charming man and more respect from journalist and fans

just showed my 21 yr old son this, he loved it....still a banger in 2023 👌
I don’t understand why this was not so much more of a massive hit, fantastic love it
Great tune. Heard it for the first time this week
no way
Love the seahorses, the music is amazing
More seahorses pretty please
Killer song, killer lyrics, killer singing! This band should have lasted longer

One of those times in life you will never experience again it was magic
1997 was the best year ever. I was 22, let me go back and live there forever.
1995 and 1999 were better
Gaz 995 you lost your v then! Haha
@@kevincarter2020 1992 was better as well 😂
I was born in -97. I'm 22 now and feeling now what you felt back then

Saw him a few times at shiine in last few years he’s a top bloke
I'm 39 i first heard of these when I was 16 and loved them ever since 😊
Chris Helme....best indie voice of the 90's.....brilliant, still gutted there wasn't a second seahorses album, damn you squire
the second record is on youtube! give it a search
He also writes a fair tune (such as this one). He's still going as a singer-songwriter, sometimes with a band.
I am amazed that York managed to have two bands that made it to the charts in the same timespan as it's not a huge city.
2million views, this song deserves 10 million.
it deserves hundreds of millions! This song is a beaut.
This is my walking home from the pub tune.... best sung loudly and out of key...... class
KarlsCrapola ur on the ball 👍
Mine to
Nothing beats singing your heart out as you ride home on the beer scooter ❤
It is a catchy tune that reminds me of first hearing records by the beloved ' a hundred words' or, house of love 'shine on
& Many more songs of youth, grace, wisdom and simply over a relationship 👍🍺🥴
STUNNING VOCAL! ❤
Yes absolutely!!
Not heard this song in 20 years, loved it back in the day and yeah... I had good taste as a kid :) Still brilliant. Squire is a fantastic guitarist.
The 90s were our 60s.
I love how certain songs take you back to the past, 1997 going through a divorce for me with this track, best thing I did, great track ❤
Happy 💌 #SaintValentines Day, Julie.
Stunning, simply stunning. Never knew the legendary John Squires formed this band. Beautiful track
Lockdown is perfect for finding old classic songs..........and this one of them.
Free money rose. Wasn’t like that for a lot of us. It was hell and we had nothing for free because we are working class
Chris Helme, such a beautiful voice & beautifully written song! ❤
23yrs old and would still sound good if it was released today.Timeless.👍
Another gem from the 90's.
album filler more
@@marguskiis7711 Well it was a single!
@@kevinlongman007 coke filled Squire had zero quality control and wrote horribly mediocre songs
@@kevinlongman007There's always one...
One of the greatest choruses Surely.?
I'm in Michigan and I was surprised to hear this playing at a restaurant last night. Had to come here and listen to it again.
Love the song, absolutely one of my favourites!! Then I saw Chris and I fell in love… absolutely beautiful! ❤
Haven't listened to this in years, and still remember every word. Quality never gets old.
Same! Had his album when I was 14 and listened today for the first time in over 25 years...knew every word!
chris helme is awesome man
enough said
Saw Chris Helme playing this tonight whilst supporting Dodgy, forgot just how good it was! Even better acoustic !
Thanks for the info as we are seeing them tonight in Brum.
Such an Amazing Song
I was at John’s crib when they’d just finished recording this,,, how is it possible that a tune as great ethos can just disappear ???? One of my favourite noises 🙏🐶
My kids have it drilled into them, it's me funeral banger, it's just great
It hasn't disappeared. Classics stay forever
As soon as he doesn't mean to be unkind the song really becomes a classic. The list goes on and on and onnnnnnn
Smokeyyyyyyyy
Saw these guys at Glastonbury in the cold and mud, weather was awful so were the Seahorses, apart from John Squire that is, he and The Stone Roses rule.
this brings back so many memories! my brother was a fan & so was i. must of been 12 when i first heard this, im 37 now.
A good tune with simple chords, playing it in front of my ex was comical.
2021 still listening this masterpiece
Fantastic 👍
2022 and still listening to this genius song
2022
90s paint by numbers. yuk
2023!
90s were the fucking best for music
John Squire to the other members of the band: “Hey guys, do you want to play on my guitar solo?”.
So true, noodling all the way through ..!

Absolute BANGER of a track, pure solid gold this
classic 90's band...
where are they now - this is a mighty fine mixture of lyrics and music !!!
Great song 😎
What an absolutely brilliant song this was... my favourite from the late 90s.
Scary that time has flown by so quick!
The most under rated song of the 90s
the most underrated song ever?
David Assulin Yes. ;)
+David Assulin One of the most underrated bands of all time?
Correct.
+Dead Aces Desde México, te doy toda la razón.
+David Assulin 100%
14 years old when this was out, you were either blur or oasis, I was team sea horses and still am love this to death x
Heard it on the wireless the other day, forgot how good it was. That's why I'm here!!
I remembered these coming out in the 90s and bought their album. What great times
without a dout the best track of the last 20yrs
Great tune. Just reflecting the comments below. A tune that meant a lot to me in my youth. But it still sounds great!
Absolute tune this 👌 👏
oh dear 90,s you never left me heart
Sehid nedir
Blinding
This song is incredible. So underrated
What a tune. So many memories attached to this one.... viva la Seahorses
Wow found myself back here and it’s still a masterpiece 🙏
Always loved this song, John squire kills it !!!

This and chasing rainbows by shed seven make my top 10 tunes from the 90s 🙌
I had forgotten all about this song until I heard it on Absolute 90's radio station. Loved this back in the day.
I used to listen to this on ar90's when I was 12
What a good tune 👍Squire on guitar 🎸
When to see these in coventry.fantastic group.shame it ended to quick.
This is one of my favorite songs ever.
Remember watching this band in the 90s ..absolutely loved them ❤
Always loved this song
DVHS Class on 97. Great memories listening to this at school. Fucking hell i am now 30. Still better than the shite that is out today.
Do it yourself is still my favourite ever album.
I listened to the album for first time in months today on drive home from my holidays. Still brilliant.
Fuck off
@@kevinwiggins1344 what lmao
Great song. Heard it today. Had to come home & listen to it again.

Modern music, don't ask me what went wrong, the list goes on and on.
One of the most honest songs.
This get's better with time
Very Beatle!!! I love it
Top of the list that goes on and on…
my song when walking home drunk ..oh dear college days good music way back so much love for this band ❤❤❤
The perfect song doesnt exi ....
one of my all-time fav!
We were driving back to London from T in the Park one year in a non-stop journey and this came on the radio what felt like every 10 songs and woke us all up. 98? There was a World Cup final too but I was too shattered to watch it. Drugs eh? I loved 96-2012
2022 and only rediscovered this song this year. Loved it back in 1997 and love it all over again
Just heard this for the first time this week. Love it
I'm looking for a song between the mid 90's till 2005, I always thought it was Supergrass but it's not. I only remember the end of the song with the lead signer (a young man) singing haha-haha what-a-ta and then a men choir reapeting haha-haha what-a-ta with a depper voice, thanks a lot
This song is close to perfection
