The album is in Kurt Kobain's top 50. Rightly so.
This video is great, simple and nostalgic.
The older it gets the better it looks!
One of the best bass lines of all time
226,000 hits... and we never even got to hear music like this in America except on college radio. Thank God I bought Pilllows and Prayers in London 35 years ago. It is one of the best albums I own.
'Pay no more than 99p', great sleeve of the kid with the bubble blow pipe a fantastic introduction to the Cherry Red roster
@@dermot51 Must admit, I thought back then that I was quite well up on what was around, but only just heard this for the first time today on BBC Four.
@@andrewpreston4127 me too, really liked this song when they played it tonight. That video perfectly captures the hot summer of 1983 I was only 7 but it was a scorcher.
336,000 hits July 31-2022. Great song.
A bang and a wimpy😅
Fan since '80 from Italia. I love it!
A gorgeous charming video
Heard this for the first time last night watching Annie Nightingale on BBC4, how on earth did I miss this in 1983, great song.
likewise, a brilliant track
same here.
what a great but haunting track.
love it
@@andrewcroft6855 Me too ....
Me too. Can't believe I hadn't heard it before either.
You're on the wrong coast there. This is Brighton.
What a perfect summer song.
I adore this! I've never heard of this before today, accidentally stumbling over this video and now I've ordered the box set. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Heard this song this week. Went to sleep & dreamt about it
This is a million miles from download pop. I'm so glad that it is.
Lovely little tune
Summer 2022. Still my vibes. x DJJD Hacked-Knee, E5.
Nice to see Brighton Pier, the one you see in the distance, burn't down......
Wow, had for the vinyl forever - never knew there as an official video !
Great alt band.
Cool music, cool people....
I'm right in the middle of Tracey Thorn's book Bedsit Disco Queen. It's a great read, buy it or borrow it from your local library. I'm the first to read it here in my home town. Tracey is a lovely person so of course I had to listen to this.! And it is great!
I believe it is indeed.
Great to see Tracey enjoying herself on the rides. And the Foxes were definitely fashion trendsetters. Too bad Gina had split by this point.
What the Marine Girls lacked in ability, they more than made up for with heart and passion.
Simply lovely
Simply magnificent!!! Thanks for posting
Full 3rd verse is:
Take a boat out for a while
You row and i lie back in style
We'll reach the other side you say
But we never get half way
I've got the Pillows & Prayers album, from way back when.
It's interesting that, along with a Marine Girls song appearing, there are also singles by both Tracey Thorn and Ben Watt. And, even before they formed EBTG, there's a sweet duet by Tracey and Ben.
0:55 this shot is so sick and then they one up it later when its zoomed into the top and you see them roll into frame
Lovely.
loved it for yeaaars and years
FAB !!
Beautiful song ❤️
musica urbana
c'est cool: exceptionnel! j'adore! : )
beautiful !)
1st listen, very sweet.
❤️

oui, mademoseille j.! bravo! ; )
I love this too match
@Terryc1991
this sounds like it could have been released yesterday, love it!
awesome vIdeo
I'm still in love with Alice
Bro, that ferris wheel!
I aint heard this for twenty odd years.
What was the album called?
I had this LP on one side of of a C90 and Tracey Thorne - a distant shore on the other..........could prob have fitted both on one side .... ha.
I was 15....... emotional. best days of your life.
Je me sens comme si j'observe un filmette de « usine » avec April March chantant par l'intermédiaire de la faille spatio-temporelle… brillante ! ! ! !
♥
Way out with the lyrics Okiedokies. This is what she's really singing:
Barefoot by the shore
A drink with ice and two straws
Sun in a clouded sky
You grin as the girls by.
Take a boat for a while
You row and i lie back in style
We'll reach the other side you say
But we never get halfway
When the evening comes around
We'll stroll through a lovely little town
Miles and miles from home
Happy to be on our own
That Ferris wheel sure is fast. You wouldn't catch me on it.
this song's a bit of a daydream innit
I totally agree with you 👍👍👍
Kurt Cobain loved this band. I can fucking see why. What a top tune brahh.
Possibly the most dangerous ferris wheel.....ever
I would'nt go up on it, what the fuck is it made of , matchsticks? it should be free , c,mon ferris fair ,so to speak....ill get me coat.
@@dermot51 good gag don't be too hard on yourself.
Aye! you gotta laugh apparently they wanted the sticks back off the candy floss after you ate it so the council could use them as spares for the ferris wheel for the following season
I thought that too.
far to fast and against H&S.....
who cares, this is a fuckin brilliant little melody.
the ferris wheel from hell
what is the Helter Skeltor?
You must be happy now WereSoDoomed!
Do you guys know the Guitar chords for this.This is something I like to play in front yard
Em,Am,Bm then Bm,D,A (bridge) then back to Em,Am,Bm simple really, but never try and play it on top of a ferris wheel on a British pier

There where my favorite band from my past life when I was Kurt cobain
Fuck me that's a fast big wheel!
does anyone have lyrics to this song? i can't find any in the net.
love u all friends of disaster
hearts beating faster
Annie Nightingale still sending me back to school.
I new Tracey Thorn had been in a band before EBTG I had no idea they had made a video.
likewise, i'd never heard of Marine Girls before, this track is just so sublime
i always thought this song sounded rather saddened..
Tracey's first goup "Marine Girls" circa 1980
According to Wikipedia, Tracey's first group was 'The Stern Bops' (1979-1980)
i just wonder if it wasn't for tracy thorn, how many people would know about marine girls. Just a thought
I know that England has a million piers but is this the Brighton pier by any chance?
Putting me in an awkward situation as in regards a correct reply here pier pressure so to speak Ill get me coat!
@@dermot51LOL it's brighton
C'è una deliziosa arietta da Astrud Gilberto
mouahahahahahahahha
well said !
:P
Too bad you don't have irony where you live. Can you get some online?
j'attends le canalplus 700 comme cela canalplus 334 me dit
I presume it's the Fox sisters and Tracey, but who's the guy in the video?
Am Dm Em
Lovely chords nice tune to play along to
So, is this Morecombe, or where?
Brighton apparently Cindy incidentally
kurt cobains top 50 list put me on
it's like a less good late-period Liliput
lyrics anyone?
if you're not joking you have youtube to find out for yourself O.O
Sounds like the Passions with less production.
you mean you have been on it, it was too fast and you did get caught on it but you'd rather put the whole sordid experience behind you.
divertido

Save the West!!
I don't get the praise for this song. The music is monotonous and the singing out of tune. Pass
