A great song by one of the best British Bands of the late 1980s stuffed with clever lyrics – our particular favourite “If I hadn’t seen such riches I could live with being poor” Strikingly poignant.
They did a Comic relief version in 2013 with Peter Kay which is worth a watch too.
We all used to sit on the dance floor when this came on, those were the days!
why a sheap
those who feel the breath of sadness, sit down next to me, those who find they’re touched by madness…sit down next to me!!
Throwing chairs around like that can be very dangerous
james are still gigging and people are enjoying thier music all over the country. who else is still around after more than 20 years?
great song
Great song and all those who’ve had the generous state SANCTIONS sit down next to me ………………
Why don’t you take a seat over there?
“Carlsberg don’t do songs…”
next to me…………..
one hit wonders, inspiral carpets, roses, charlatans
were madchester.
I went out to karaoke a few nights ago and wanted to sing this song but they didn’t have ANY James! Had to settle for Morrissey and Big Country…
I love the people who know James, and not James Blunt
