"You must decide to risk your heart for love to find you." Calling all introverts and shy people, this line has remained stuck in my head as such sound advice even 20 odd years later. Worked for me!
They always used to play this song in Safeway when I was working there while at sixth form. They only had about 10-15 songs in a constant loop for about 3 years LOL. I'd hear this at least 3 times per shift! Anyone remember Safeway supermarkets?
Yeah, this song reminds me of simpler times; times when music was all that mattered. And ecstasy and people to share it with. For better or worse this is part of the soundtrack of my life. I wouldn't play this at my funeral but it will take its place as part of my Hospice Mix, it'll be there when I need a reminder of what life used to be like. Thank you Mint Royale, and Lauren Laverne. I fcuking love this tune!
Another top song- I’m a 2020 fan. This song should be re released- people will go mental at the sight of all those bog rolls in the video, and wistfully pine for the good old days when toilet paper was plentiful, a pint cost tuppence and every home had a Vera Lynn tucked away in a corner somewhere- don’t know where, exactly.
Saw this randomly one time on MTV2 back in the day, and then never again. It took me years to track the song down again. I don't understand why this didn't become a bigger hit than it was.
Mint Royale has that way of giving you nostalgia despite not having memories of their music. Like, I was born in 1999, makes me wonder if this was played on the radio constantly and it resonates with me because buried deep in my subconscious are faint memories of this song. I dont even like this type of music but this one makes me feel happy and at home. Really odd.
I heard this song in the summer of 2003 or 2004, and played it as often as any other song on the radio. There was also A1 caught in the middle, and Avril’s songs that were popular at the time. So we were both late to this one, but hey, you have the memories ...
Yeah man, same. Haven't heard this song before 2013 or so, yet from the very first moment it felt like... home, warmness, happines, I felt comfort from the very beginning. Love this song.
Was released in '99, year I left school and had the best summer ever. Chicane was very popular around this time and Groove Armada too. Lot of electronic music but not all dance/trance full on stuff.
I went to primary school with Emma. I have also seen Lauren around town. We went to the same clubs and scene in Sunderland in the late 90’s. Mad to think of the fame that they achieved. Can’t believe that was over 20 years ago now! Memories!
I used to feel so sad And think too slow and drink too fast Life had me blue and black Till someone came and changed me back Now you see life These colors shimmering around you You must decide To risk your heart for love to find you Hey, don't falter You know we ought to be together Strange, I saw ya, I sorta knew it was forever Please, stay with me And never miss a chance to kiss me Babe, I love yah When you're with me its always summer Now everything is fine Because he is officially mine And as long as we've got each other It's gonna be officially summer You're hypnotised By these colours all around you You must decide To risk your heart for love to find you Hey, don't falter You know we ought to be together Strange, I saw ya, I sorta knew it was forever Please, stay with me And never miss a chance to kiss me Babe, I love yah When you're with me its always summer It's only right To have a little love around you You must decide To risk your heart Hey, don't falter You know we ought to be together Strange, I saw ya, I sorta knew it was forever Please, stay with me And never miss a chance to kiss me Babe, I love yah When you're with me its always summer Hey Hey, don't falter You know we ought to be together Strange, I saw ya, I sorta knew it was forever Please, stay with me And never miss a chance to kiss me Babe, I love yah When you're with me its always summer
Waaaaaaay baaaacck in the daaaaayyyss when I used to watch T4 on channel four over twenty years ago before streaming is about now I'd watch Presenter's June Sarpong, Nikita Oliver, Lauren Louvrne and Matt Edmondson and I'd also watch Asif a really funny program also on T4 on channel four.💜🎶🎵.
Pure pop perfection .. I'm going out on a limb but I think it might be better than "Be my baby" by The Ronettes ... sweet, innocent and everything that great pop is ... or maybe it's not as good as "Where's me jumper?" by Sultans of Ping FC ... it's all good. xx Raise a glass to Lauren! xx
Is there a name for this kind of music? Sweet voice + instrumental who sounds fucking nostalgic!!! I never listened to this song before...this made my DAY (maybe the year)
I personally never saw her but my Uncle used to talk to her in The Blandford whilst she was a student before she was in Kenickie and he said she was a good laugh and a cool lass...
Gosh, 1999 was a big deal for our generation. This video was totally inspired by the movie GO, which also came out that year. It flopped with the youth America but totally worked for us in Britain.
I loved loved loved GO and this song, I had this on CD and GO on video. I never made a connection between the two but yeah you are so right. I cant believe I didnt make the connection because I always thought Sarah Polley in GO had a Lauren Laverne vibe!!
I don't thinks there's any connection. It was (is?) pretty common for youngster to be stuck in such jobs, which is what both movie and song have in common. But no drugs here. Just a love story.
Dont care wether shes aged or not....Loz La Voz is the epitome of gorgeousness and a bbc 6 music dj....that means she transcends all our superficial bs....hate the game...not the playa....
"GO" was a brilliant film! I love the way it goes pitch black, before turning light and playful. The Tarantino - ish unpleasantness never really materialises. Its quite a relief!!!
Absolute classic. I've always thought they should drag Lauren out of musical retirement for at least one more song together. This does set the bar unreasonably high, though.
+Alex S Dorian Gray, the fictional character who doesn't age because he has a self-portrait of himself that ages instead. That's what I'm guessing he meant anyway.
proving that the people who love Lauren are high cultured - nice one - you certainly would never find Oscar Wilde references on an Oasis related video !

Still lovely and heartwarming enough to make a tough 51-year old man cry!

It’s so 90s and I love it ❤
Love in a pre social media world the greatest gift we ever gave up.

Dude you got a like from Mint Royale for this comment. Fucking solid. Everyone I've shown this to has liked this song. Re-release it.
And when people used to write songs about love.
Surely one of the best pop songs ever? Beautiful :)
Yes, along with Pull Shapes by the Pipettes.
Lauren is gorgeous.

Every now and then this pops up in my feed and I am always glad when it does.
Why she didnt do more songs is beyond me this was an amazing song
This is such a feel good song, was never as big as it deserved to be! Pure nostalgia though! 👌👌
I heard this being played on ITV during half time for the Germany v Japan World Cup game. Had to listen to this again.
Same here, haha. No idea why they chose to play it but I'm glad they did
get well soon Lauren!
I would definitely take this as one of my desert island discs.
Love it! Ah... back when the world seemed sane...
Now its nearly 23 years old I will say it again....this is a classic. Music isnt just fun and chilled and dreamy like this now adays.
This is an evidence that since 2012, or around that period, we only deteriorated and lost ourselves as human beings and society as one!
I used to feel so sad
And think too slow and drink too fast
Life had me blue and black
Till someone came and changed me back
Now you see life
These colors shimmering around you
You must decide
To risk your heart for love to find you
Hey, don't falter
You know we ought to be together
Strange, I saw ya, I sorta knew it was forever
Please, stay with me
And never miss a chance to kiss me
Babe, I love yah
When you're with me its always summer
Now everything is fine
Because he is officially mine
And as long as we've got each other
It's gonna be officially summer
You're hypnotised
By these colours all around you
You must decide
To risk your heart for love to find you
Hey, don't falter
You know we ought to be together
Strange, I saw ya, I sorta knew it was forever
Please, stay with me
And never miss a chance to kiss me
Babe, I love yah
When you're with me its always summer
It's only right
To have a little love around you
You must decide
To risk your heart
Hey, don't falter
You know we ought to be together
Strange, I saw ya, I sorta knew it was forever
Please, stay with me
And never miss a chance to kiss me
Babe, I love yah
When you're with me its always summer
Hey
Hey, don't falter
You know we ought to be together
Strange, I saw ya, I sorta knew it was forever
Please, stay with me
And never miss a chance to kiss me
Babe, I love yah
When you're with me its always summer
I’ve had this tune in my head for the last 20+ years but never knew who it was. And today it popped up on my Discover Weekly playlist on Spotify.
Had to be a great feeling of completion
A great song this from the late 90's still sounds good to this day
Love Lauren ❤❤❤
Get well soon Lauren
Brilliant. A massively underrated band. It always cheers me up when I watch this !!
Such an adorable tune. Lauren Laverne should sing more often :)
+Dokka Chapman (The doKtor Dokka) She was in a band called Kenickie, she sang and played guitar. You can get more of your fix listening to them :)
She was in a band way before becoming a tv presenter
Kenickie were awesome
To risk your heart for love to find you... ❤️👏
This is a sweet song. Lauren Lavern is a pretty lady and cute. An Angel in the making.
The perfect pop song. Never fails to cheer me up!
That's what the world looked like until 1987. And Yorkshire until 1992
The kind of song you just can’t stop singing no matter where you are .
This song is pop perfection. It's one of the best things she ever recorded. (+ That guy is gorgeous.)
her voice is spot on here
Love this
Great track

14 years later and Lauren still looks exactly the same. No ageing at all.
Probably a couple of judicious face lifts. Women aren't supposed to age.
@@andrewroberts8139 She has naturally good skin and she is lovely.
This song reminds me of simpler times. All thoughts of the horror show of 2016/2017 melt away when I hear this.
I can't help but wonder how this comment has aged for you
@@michaelrich7066 ME too
for me 2018/19 was really sucks
Well thanks for this
Wait until you get to 2020
Lauren Laverne used to be seen often during the early 90s in The Blandford in Blandford Street in Sunderland...
This is a real blast from the past!
Pure pop perfection .. I'm going out on a limb but I think it might be better than "Be my baby" by The Ronettes ... sweet, innocent and everything that great pop is ... or maybe it's not as good as "Where's me jumper?" by Sultans of Ping FC ... it's all good. xx Raise a glass to Lauren! xx
This generation have been lumbered with Ed Sheeran and Stormzy
this was me and the wifes first dance tune! No soppy shit for us! Good tune
Love Lauren.
After 20 fooking years I’ve found this song at long last :)
WOW! I had totally forgotten about this one!! I used to love it soooo much as well!
I spent so long looking for this song i finally found it!!!!
Is there a name for this kind of music? Sweet voice + instrumental who sounds fucking nostalgic!!! I never listened to this song before...this made my DAY (maybe the year)
Reminds me of the cutie culture indie trend my sister used to be into around '93-'94ish I think.
Old
Saint Etienne ♥
@@Skiamakhos St. Etienne without a doubt
sounds a lot like the go! team, I actually found this song searching for songs that fit that vibe
Wasn't into MR or Kenickie at the time but I am now.
Ahhhh the 90s..... I miss them 😢
I personally never saw her but my Uncle used to talk to her in The Blandford whilst she was a student before she was in Kenickie and he said she was a good laugh and a cool lass...
wow nearly 20 years old and still listening....
I used to love this song on "biscuits!"😊
This is my go to feel good song!
For four minutes and fourteen seconds it's been officially summer...
Yes lauren laverne off the tv used to make music.some of it quite good.although she makes a very convincing supermarket girl.🥰
I feel like I need to find my Mint Royale CD 💿 ❤️

Probably the sweetest pop song i have ever heard
What a great choon and I never knew Lauren Leverne was a singer.
😀 brings back some good memories!
Used to love this song as a kid. Still do.
Dont care wether shes aged or not....Loz La Voz is the epitome of gorgeousness and a bbc 6 music dj....that means she transcends all our superficial bs....hate the game...not the playa....
Always loved her voice .Shes very talented x kenickie 4 ever
My desert island disc❤
love that song for some reason!!
She’s beautiful
I'd only seen the animated version before. This is great 💚💚💚
Brill
"GO" was a brilliant film! I love the way it goes pitch black, before turning light and playful. The Tarantino - ish unpleasantness never really materialises. Its quite a relief!!!
In an attic somewhere there is a picture of Lauren Lavern slowly aging.
Bless sweet little song xx
love this song
Beautiful Tunnel💕💕
Heard this today and had to watch the clip. Classic tune
I agree always liked this we track)
Flipping love this song, this would be my karaoke tune!
Absolute classic. I've always thought they should drag Lauren out of musical retirement for at least one more song together. This does set the bar unreasonably high, though.
charm,dignity,humor,great song, great voice ,style and shock! clothes. female artists wore 'em once
Loving the HD "glossy" version. no more 240p for me!! :D
A great summery record.
On the Ropes was a great big beat album overall, but this one was shockingly catchy. I had no idea there was a video.
this reminds me so much of my childhood

lol good one.

perhaps she understands the importance of being idol
Lauren Laverne has aged!
It is you that just has not noticed the ageing!
Anybody remember the time when stuff had a price label on it and the checkout gal had to manually type the price into the till? YEAH!
lovely tune and songs
I liked Kenickie, particularly the dark haired girl- she was a favourite of my teenage self!
Lauren as Cute as a button.... still is
possibly the perfect pop song,maybe.
I heard this song a bunch of times in the early 2000's but never knew who it was by. A random click on RUclips some 18 years later and now I know.
She's still fit
Back when this came out i probably dismissed it within the first few bars, older me regrets quite a lot of younger me's choices...
Loz La Voz.....was,is,and always shall be pop royalty.
This song is so cheesy I WANa blow my head off becuz life isn't this perfect, but this song is 😩💖
much memories. such wow
Underrated song
This is super sweet!
I used to feel so sad
And think too slow and drink too fast
Life had me blue and black
Till someone came and changed me back
Now you see life
These colors shimmering around you
You must decide
To risk your heart for love to find you
Hey, don't falter
You know we ought to be together
Strange, I saw ya
I sorta knew it was for ever
Please stay with me
And never miss a chance to kiss me
Babe, I love ya
When you're with me, it's always summer
Now everything is fine
Because he is officially mine
And as long as we've got each other
It's gonna be officially summer
You're hypnotized
By these colors all around you
You must decide
To risk your heart for love to find you
Hey, don't falter
You know we ought to be together
Strange, I saw ya
I sorta knew it was for ever
Please stay…
