    Played this at my uncle's funeral 2 days ago. He loved The Verve and saw them live in Wigan in 1998. We were torn on what song to pick but I was having a look through his CDs last week and found this song as a single, and the choice was made. The tears were flowing when it came on but it was a beautiful moment. Until we meet again Martin. 1974-2022 💙

      @nordmannenfrank6066 It's worth remembering that there was a 'Golden Age Of Rap' between the late eighties/early nineties. A Tribe Called Quest, The Jungle Brothers, and De La Soul were acts that used jazz to get their erudite messages across, which involved a refreshing self deprecatory attitude!

I’m suddenly torn back to 1997, remembering just how intensely this album resonated with me during those late 90’s years. Beautiful, soul-touching music. To the members of the Verve, thank you. Your music was there when i needed to know I wasn’t alone in this terrible melancholy.

It brings me comfort to know that all these songs I lived for are now loved by my little girls, and that they form an unbreakable connection between us that will remain long after I'm gone.

    My friend and me

    Yes, there's love if you want it
    Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord
    Yes, there's love if you want it
    Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord
    My lord
    Why can't you see
    That nature has its way of warning me
    Eyes open wide
    Looking at the heavens with a tear in my eye
    Yes, there's love if you want it
    Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord
    Yes, there's love if you want it
    Don't sound like no sonnet, my lord
    My lord
    Sinking faster than a boat without a hull
    My lord
    Dreaming about the day when I can see you there
    My side
    By my side
    Here we go again and my head is gone, my lord
    I stop to say hello
    'Cause I think you should know, by now
    By now
    By now
    By now
    By now
    By now
    Oh, by now

I've grown bored of many songs I started to like as the years passed by, but for some reasons, I could never leave theirs. They just have this little bit of surreal feeling that can transport me to another world. Such an amazing music. Whenever I listen to it I can create things. Ahhh I just wanted to express how much I love it really
