    From one of the best debut albums ever ("Today"). This song and band always reminds me of being in Boston from 1985-95. Sad but hopeful at the same time.

    Ah the wonders of NYC underground music from the 80's! This is a masterpiece, a wonderful snippet of a time and world, long, passed. Truly this is one of my favorite songs, ever. If you've ever wondered what playing two chords (G-C), drenched in reverb can do, this is it. Beautiful dynamics, wonderful melody, honest lyrics and a heartfelt performance. All wrapped up into one classic tune.Bravo!

      They were from Boston, Cambridge to be exact. They had a huge NYC following but were of Boston. When Dean moved to NYC and formed Luna he claimed NYC.

      The world IS very small. Because I played with the original line up of the La's with Mike Badger. Check out "My girl sits like a reindeer" from the 1986 compilation "Elegance, Charm and Deadly Danger" and "Revolutionary Spirit" the sound of Liverpool 1976 - 1988" both of which you can find on RUclips. In fact, you've set me off. I'm now sitting here with my young daughter playing "Revolutionary Spirit" and my youth has all come flooding back. Find the full length fan video by Indiekid45 of track 36 "Revolutionary Spirit" by the Wild Swans. -quite possibly the greatest single ever. That was produced by Ian Broudie who later formed the Lightning Seeds, and paid for by Pete de Freitas (RiP) of the Bunnymen.
