I agree. I feel this way about the song "somewhere only we know" as well. It is like a friend of mine once said about Belle and Sevastian: "it makes you feel nastalgic for a decade that never existed."
My girlfriend back in the 90s got me into music like this. We ended our relationship, then lost contact. I recently learned she passed away. Whenever I hear this I think of the fond memories and how different I’d be without ever hearing this.
I'm a 37-year old man, big, mean and ugly looking. The kind you'd think listens to thrash metal (and I do!) but this song is my secret favourite, a guilty pleasure. My life is my life and experience has taught me to expect differently but I can't seem to silence the little boy I used to be that believed in true love and gentle romance. C'est la vie.
This song dropped at a time where life was simple, pleasant and fun. No noisy social media, no rampant smartphone drones about and no COVID. If you fell in love when this song entered your lives, then chances are, you’re still in love today. The innocence in this classic is timeless.
I fell in love with what I thought the world was. What I thought people were. As I grew I began to realize neither of those things were the ideas that I fell in love with. But I do still love them. I really wish we could be.....that. Beautiful and happy and caring. Understanding.
When I was 14, I was listening to this song on the way home from a first date. 18 years later we're married and have 2 children. This song always brings me back to the day of our first date and how everything begun 😍
I was 27 when I first saw this video. I was getting ready for work, at 3:40am, and making sure Mom was okay. As, I was walking towards her room, I heard her singing this song. Instantly a large smile spread across my face, and I bounced into her room singing with her. Every time she'd sing "Kiss Me" I'd bend down and kiss her on the cheek. She had been diagnosed with lung cancer just 3 months previously. So any, and every time her spirits were up became a 'trigger', for me, to raise the roof! I could care less about what time it was, or who was sleeping! Mom was happy & feeling good! I'd dance and sing, keeping the good vibes going until I had to go to work, or Mom tired out. Then we'd laugh until I had to leave. And, you know that that song played every work day at about the same time for at least 6 or 7 weeks! It was AWESOME!
Lyrics Kiss me, out of the bearded barley Nightly, beside the green, green grass Swing, swing, (swing, swing) swing the spinning step You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress Oh, kiss me, beneath the milky twilight Lead me out on the moonlit floor Lift your open hand Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance Silver moon's sparkling So kiss me Kiss me, (kiss me) down by the broken tree house Swing me, (swing me) upon its hanging tire Bring, bring, (bring, bring) bring your flowered hat We'll take the trail marked on your father's map Oh, kiss me, beneath the milky twilight Lead me out on the moonlit floor Lift your open hand Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance Silver moon's sparkling So kiss me Kiss me, beneath the milky twilight Lead me out on the moonlit floor Lift your open hand Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance Silver moon's sparkling So kiss me So kiss me So kiss me So kiss me
(if you heard the gourdchat version, you'll get it) Kiss me (kiss me) Down by the melting tree stumps Kiss me (kiss me) Down on the dead gray grass Sniff sniff It smells so sickly sweet But every way it turn there's rotting meat
Hello everyone, just a quick note I've seen lot of people/bots post lyrics on popular songs to get likes and most of the comments are hatefull towards them...... I posted the lyrics for myself, even though i know the lyrics it's a better experience reading along and interacting with it. And many of you found it very useful, all the comments have been positive so far so thank you and have a nice life.
This is just PERFECT. Her innocent and gentle image, the way this video clip was built, and the love and optimism this song is transmitting all over, everything is just SO sweet. This is one of the best songs ever, not just of the 90s.
I Got married in 2019 and this song was our song we danced to as husband and wife for the first time. Conicendently we both loved the song growing up and we agreed to use the song for our wedding. We have our first child 3 years old already and i would never change a thing. This song kick started my little family. ❤
This song reminds me of the best times i had in the 90's. It's like you forget about stuff in the moment and relive the 90's for the duration of this song.
This song is like a downy blanket of effusive, playful, unconditional love. That descending chord progression that permeates throughout the song gives it this whimsical feel, like a wide-eyed child seeing the wonders of the world for the first time. Magical!
"Unconditional love" is a contradiction in terms. It means causeless love - another contradiction in terms. To love is to value greatly, and can mean nothing else. You value for a reason, for a cause.
If you come here in 2054. I'm, Idit Malka and I enjoyed this song, and i had do much fun. I'm currently in Agadir 😂Morocco 🇲🇦 it Saturday at 05:00 am on the 18th Of February 2024. The day My first born son arrived 💙 he will be 30 in a few hours. Life was complex, but i had fun! For my grandbaby and my sons ❤i love you so very much.❤
@@carletto10 It's a nice song, but I don't see the similarity. Both in chord progression and melody they are different. This has an ascending chord change on the 1, while your song has a typical soul progression.
I was 6 when this song came out and I miss every bit of the 90's. What happened to that time in the world? The country was united, people were sane. There was no recession, no war, no inflation, no social media. Let that sink in and may it bring you peace ✌️
Im going to be 35 soon and I occasionally go down a CZcams rabbit hole and listen to songs of my younger years. This song always makes me miss the better days when life wasn't so complicated.
I was 12 years old when this song come out… I thought it was cute, but now 25 years later I understand how beautiful it is. So many memories… How years pass so fast 😢
I sung this song at my wedding. I'm no longer married but great memory. My good friend Alex Wilson played the keyboards for me and adjusted it to my key. 😊
This song was playing when I started dating my girlfriend, now my wife. It was our first kiss. Now, when we hear the song, we look at each other and smile knowingly.
Hello. I truly hope you have been able to stop listening to this song as I've been battling with the kissmeitis for a couple of months now and I feel like my whole life is in shambles. If you have been able to make it stop, please reply and tell me. Everything around me is falling to pieces and I'm stuck here listening to this song while kissing. Please.
This song.... I see, smell and feel things that can't anymore.... Days long past.... But there they are. Everytime I hear this song. Music is so much more than we've ever given it credit for. Thank you for those lifting your voices for the benefit of others.
I never thought much of this song back in 1998-1999 as a kid, but now as an adult it has such a special vibe and makes me so nostalgic to that era. This is actually an underrated masterpiece.
I feel exactly the same way. Back then songs would just be heard playing on some random radio and we never even knew the name of the singer or the band. I'm glad we can now search for all the stuff we experienced back then.
I have a bad memory due to an injury to the head from the military, but this song instantly triggers my memory. I remember being a child in the morning while my mother got ready for work. This would play all the time. It's one of the few songs that trigger such a strong memory
I was 23 going on 24 in 1999 when this came out. My junior year of college and life was so much more simple yet complicated at the same time. I never married but if I had this would have been our wedding dance song.
*shrugs* What's so shocking about it? lol The song came out in 99, not 2009, and it was listened to by a (portion of a) generation that isn't nearly as active on the internet today as successive generations---kids who never heard of this song. People listened to this shit on casette tapes lmfao And it isn't so much underrated as it is unheard of; amongst those who know the song and recognize it immediately, its rated perfectly high.
This song came out the same year my grandmother took me to work when she couldnt afford daycare but would go to the soda machine and buy me and my sister a soda. This song tastes like brisk iced tea
58 years old I am. My love crossed the line 2 years ago. It is still at hard to date now as it was when I was teenager. Somethings get better as you get older, but some remains the same. Ahhh, rock on folks.
That line has been crossed a billion times. This song though is as solid as a draught horse. My local club played it on new years eve in 2016. I began crying and went home and watched TV. Guess it. The song was being played on v in a racing clip. Huh very coincidental and annoying
@@thealternative9580 John being funny isn't a hook up deal. You must touch the fridge five times every morning ..and then a woman cooking will appear via magic.
Can't be a 90s kid growing up through the early 2000s without having heard and listened to this song a lot. I laughed heartily when I had to look it up via "silver moon sparkling" only to find apparently most of us did the same thing haha. Fantastic. I do love this song a lot. It's one that has stuck with me since the first time I ever heard it, probably in a store while my mom and sister shopped for her school clothes lol. This song funny enough reminds me a lot of hearing my favorite Faith Hill songs I always heard growing up as well. Same general vibes and same overall feelings it breeds inside while you enjoy them. I'm a big Classic Rock/Hard Rock guy, but I'm always a sucker for this style and kind of music and song.
1999 seems to be the best year ever, I was born in 98 but music, cinema, art, video games, tv shows, everybody not on their phones, seems like a breath of fresh air idk
Ich bin 67 und ein Opa... Ich mag dieses Lied so sehr.! Ich habe das Video meiner Enkeltochter Lilly (4 Jahre )gezeigt... Ihre Reaktion " nein danke Opa, Küssen verboten, die Oma übertreibt das mit dem Küssen. Wenn ich mal erwachsen bin, küsse ich nicht mehr, ich habe genug davon 😅
Holy crap, I hadn't listened to this song before and I'm only now realizing how amazingly well JuKayVid did mimicking Leigh Nash's vocal style in "Kiss Me (Kill Me)". Newfound appreciation.
*I absolutely **_adore_** this song! I'm a Boomer (70 years old), and while "the kids" liked this song as well, not one of them understood ANY of the references - things had already changed too much. Every line in this wonderfully innocent song is an allusion to the days of my own childhood. For example, the line "You wear those shoes and I will wear a dress" is a reference to dress codes prior to roughly 1960. "Those shoes" is a reference to patent leather shoes, which could be shined to an almost mirror surface - for the specific purpose of trying to use them to "look up a dress" (I believe the current term is "upskirting"). Her reference to "a dress" is also specific: to be "a dress" at that time, it had to be full length, at or near the ankle, so as not to inflame any young male hormones who might catch a glimpse of skin between a dress and a shoe (yeah, all 10 millimetres of skin!). these are just the two most obvious allusory lines, but **_every_** line in this song carries a similar old idea/morality rule, and manages to do it with such a beautiful and warm delivery, that if you aren't old enough to know what's actually being discussed, it doesn't matter. It's just an incredibly beautiful love song on any terms, that there is no way this couldn't have been a hit.* *This is literally one of my favorite songs, despite having been exposed to many times more music than is generally available today.*
@@celindahoyt8696 *This song is so well crafted, that everyone who listens to it **_casually,_** is likely to hear their own version. If you examine it closely though (as with any other work of poetry), it is describing a very specific picture. Like I said: I **_adore_** this song*
Structurally a perfectly built song, the chord progression is upbeat and airy, the epitome of the late 80's 90's Smiths/Sundays jangle pop guitar, simply stunning 12 string with a capo on 3 to give it all this ringing. But the way the song moves from verse to chorus to perfect bridges, going in and back out and coming back with the most perfectly fitted breaks, stops, bounces and pauses, and above it all our happiness soars on the voice of our best girlfriend, the one that we prayed wouldn't get away! But we were young and how could we have known? We thought we knew what was best for us, but we didn't. She was the best thing that ever happened to us and it was perfect while it lasted. Now, all these years later, if I could only kiss her one more time.........
Wow. She's so enchanting. Can you imagine singing this very wordy song with an ounce of elegance and rythm ? She did, and still haunts me to this day. The band are exceptional, may the stars be theirs ! 👍💗🎇
@@bunpeishiratori5849 She is very much as she appears in the video, a sweet soul, and is a person of faith, and he seemed to try and ‘trip her up’ with some of his questions, and almost seemed to make fun of her. His approach was almost of a mocking one? I don’t know how to best describe it, from memory, but it seemed disrespectful to me. She seemed very uncomfortable as well. I lost some respect for him. Stay safe and peace. 😊
It reminds me so much of the 90s. That tail end of it. So nostalgic.. This song is so beautiful. She's All That with Rachael Lee Cook and Freddie Prinze. Jr. That 90s feeling. Makes you realize you only live moments. Gotta cherish them. Love is beautiful Today, I dedicate to my special lady. Times flies.
Who's listening in 2024?

The 90's was SUCH a great time for music.
The 70s: "Hold my beer!"
Lyrics
Kiss me, out of the bearded barley
Nightly, beside the green, green grass
Swing, swing, (swing, swing) swing the spinning step
You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress
Oh, kiss me, beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling
So kiss me
Kiss me, (kiss me) down by the broken tree house
Swing me, (swing me) upon its hanging tire
Bring, bring, (bring, bring) bring your flowered hat
We'll take the trail marked on your father's map
Oh, kiss me, beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling
So kiss me
Kiss me, beneath the milky twilight
Lead me out on the moonlit floor
Lift your open hand
Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance
Silver moon's sparkling
So kiss me
So kiss me
So kiss me
So kiss me
Yaaasss
Thanks so much

The fact that this has less than a million views is shocking. Underrated song. one of my favs growing up
There is another upload with 24 million views. This is not at all an underrated song.
*shrugs* What's so shocking about it? lol The song came out in 99, not 2009, and it was listened to by a (portion of a) generation that isn't nearly as active on the internet today as successive generations---kids who never heard of this song. People listened to this shit on casette tapes lmfao And it isn't so much underrated as it is unheard of; amongst those who know the song and recognize it immediately, its rated perfectly high.
look again 😏
Exactly. This just demonstrates how stupid people's music preferences became in the 21st Century.
@@alexayers9463 what lol? Gen Xers are very active on the internet
And other popular songs from the 90s have 100s of millions of views
She has the sweetest face, the prettiest eyes and a beautiful voice. I'm an old man and this song makes me feel young again.
She
I sure miss those days. Oh to feel innocent and free again.
this world is so broken so glad I can hear this and think about the good ol days 🥺
This song came out the same year my grandmother took me to work when she couldnt afford daycare but would go to the soda machine and buy me and my sister a soda. This song tastes like brisk iced tea
Beautiful analogy.
For me it's reminiscent of a nicer time.
The taste for you is a feeling for me.
@@myoldmate That's actually really deep.
Iconic song. I can only imagine how many marriages (and children) were realized because of it.
This is by far the most 90's music video & song out there.
Nah.
To whom ever reading this.. I don't know you. But judging by the music you're listening now, I know we can be great friends.
i mean. do you like jerryterry? do you know the boys? i guess nobody knows the boys technically but you get my point if you get my point
well said mate!!!
58 years old I am. My love crossed the line 2 years ago. It is still at hard to date now as it was when I was teenager. Somethings get better as you get older, but some remains the same. Ahhh, rock on folks.
That line has been crossed a billion times. This song though is as solid as a draught horse. My local club played it on new years eve in 2016. I began crying and went home and watched TV. Guess it. The song was being played on v in a racing clip. Huh very coincidental and annoying
John I can help you have better success dating. Really no gimmicks and I don't want any money. Do you know how to be the funny guy?
@@thealternative9580 John being funny isn't a hook up deal. You must touch the fridge five times every morning ..and then a woman cooking will appear via magic.
@@allbadtillthunker.employee2363 Well if he was funny he might hook up.
One of the most British-sounding songs that’s not British. Brilliant in its simplicity. Gotta love it!
One of those songs from my youth that no matter how many times I hear it, I will never grow tired of it.
This gives me totally 90's vibes. What a time to be alive.
“Laney Boggs, get your cute butt down here”
What is, She's all that for 10,000 Alex.
Can't be a 90s kid growing up through the early 2000s without having heard and listened to this song a lot. I laughed heartily when I had to look it up via "silver moon sparkling" only to find apparently most of us did the same thing haha. Fantastic. I do love this song a lot. It's one that has stuck with me since the first time I ever heard it, probably in a store while my mom and sister shopped for her school clothes lol. This song funny enough reminds me a lot of hearing my favorite Faith Hill songs I always heard growing up as well. Same general vibes and same overall feelings it breeds inside while you enjoy them. I'm a big Classic Rock/Hard Rock guy, but I'm always a sucker for this style and kind of music and song.
Soo many of us appreciating authentic music
it's beautiful
Pure classic .99 was a great year. Every time I listen to this song it's like a poignant reminder of the passing of time.
1999 seems to be the best year ever, I was born in 98 but music, cinema, art, video games, tv shows, everybody not on their phones, seems like a breath of fresh air idk
I thought this song was from 1997?
This song takes me back to a time where nothing mattered
Can't unhear "keys me" 😭
Ich bin 67 und ein Opa...
Ich mag dieses Lied so sehr.!
Ich habe das Video meiner Enkeltochter Lilly (4 Jahre )gezeigt...
Ihre Reaktion " nein danke Opa, Küssen verboten, die Oma übertreibt das mit dem Küssen. Wenn ich mal erwachsen bin, küsse ich nicht mehr, ich habe genug davon 😅
This is so cute ♡
This is what kick started the acoustic sounds of the 2000s.
This makes me feel nostalgic yet I’ve never even heard this song before
Same here... it's a weird feeling for sure.
Some songs sound nostalgic on purpose
Quintessential 90's right here. "Don't Dream It's Over" is another song by the band that captures that sound.
"True, it's a dream mixed with nostalgia
But it's a dream that I'll always hang on to
That I always run to"
[Tales From the Riverbank - The Jam]
That's the magic of E flat major
Still listening in feb 2024, still fresh
Low-key one of the most sophisticated pop songs. That electric guitar is fire. Huge The Smiths vibes.
Tone is sublime
Why is this song soo good it straight up reminds me of she’s all that
It’s suppose to it’s part of the soundtrack lol
Songs are the closest thing to a magic or sorcery i swear.
Love openings that go from mono to stereo. Like year of the cat. Interesting open
"Jamal Murray" ,that's what I remembered when I went to Walmart and heard it, n thought it was familiar lately
Holy crap, I hadn't listened to this song before and I'm only now realizing how amazingly well JuKayVid did mimicking Leigh Nash's vocal style in "Kiss Me (Kill Me)". Newfound appreciation.
Ha ha ha 🤣
RIGHT?! You could tell me they were the same person and I would absolutely believe you
It's been so many years and I still believe that this song is what having a first love feels like.
"No good songs from the 90's" . . To me this is one of the best!
Who's listening to this in 2024??? Anyone???
Why is this comment under every CZcams song?
Sleepless in Germany, is it really 2024 yet? Where did the years go?
😊😅
absolutly
春の夜風に吹かれながら聴きたい曲
A song that will forever sound like a wish that should be granted, and yet, it never arrives.
The college times singing along with friends at the end of the semester, great times!

Who's WATCHING in 2024 and Reminiscing abt 1997 🤗🥰
Just telling my 17 year old about teen movies and the relevance of this song.
Me🖐️
This song perfectly epitomizes better than anything else why the late '90s were better than today.
Hell. Yes. Those days were so....magical
Truth 100%
@@rachelruffing9835 I'd love to go back
This song is so nostalgic it makes you cry everytime I listened to it.
America was in a twenty year dream from 1981 to 2001. And then came 9-11. And the 21st century has been a non-stop disaster.
Yuna sang this on YHY Sketchbook!
God, I miss the 90s.
My mum used to sing these song and I loved it but she passed on due to pneumonia and now everything I hear this masterpiece I think of her
Yes I knew your Mum.
My condolences.
*I absolutely **_adore_** this song! I'm a Boomer (70 years old), and while "the kids" liked this song as well, not one of them understood ANY of the references - things had already changed too much. Every line in this wonderfully innocent song is an allusion to the days of my own childhood. For example, the line "You wear those shoes and I will wear a dress" is a reference to dress codes prior to roughly 1960. "Those shoes" is a reference to patent leather shoes, which could be shined to an almost mirror surface - for the specific purpose of trying to use them to "look up a dress" (I believe the current term is "upskirting"). Her reference to "a dress" is also specific: to be "a dress" at that time, it had to be full length, at or near the ankle, so as not to inflame any young male hormones who might catch a glimpse of skin between a dress and a shoe (yeah, all 10 millimetres of skin!). these are just the two most obvious allusory lines, but **_every_** line in this song carries a similar old idea/morality rule, and manages to do it with such a beautiful and warm delivery, that if you aren't old enough to know what's actually being discussed, it doesn't matter. It's just an incredibly beautiful love song on any terms, that there is no way this couldn't have been a hit.*
*This is literally one of my favorite songs, despite having been exposed to many times more music than is generally available today.*
I thought "that dress" meant the special one he liked most.
@@celindahoyt8696
*This song is so well crafted, that everyone who listens to it **_casually,_** is likely to hear their own version. If you examine it closely though (as with any other work of poetry), it is describing a very specific picture. Like I said: I **_adore_** this song*
your comment made my day a little sweeter, thank you!!
Is that why the dress the singer is wearing in this video is also ankle length? Thank you very much for the explanation 😊
I think you read a bit much into it.
I dedicate this song to my "baby"..................R.I.P (I love you forever !)
I'm so sorry for your lose. God bring you light and peace in your heart 🙏🏻💜
Structurally a perfectly built song, the chord progression is upbeat and airy, the epitome of the late 80's 90's Smiths/Sundays jangle pop guitar, simply stunning 12 string with a capo on 3 to give it all this ringing. But the way the song moves from verse to chorus to perfect bridges, going in and back out and coming back with the most perfectly fitted breaks, stops, bounces and pauses, and above it all our happiness soars on the voice of our best girlfriend, the one that we prayed wouldn't get away! But we were young and how could we have known? We thought we knew what was best for us, but we didn't. She was the best thing that ever happened to us and it was perfect while it lasted. Now, all these years later, if I could only kiss her one more time.........
Structurally
yes
@@Draksararcherwhy u repeating what ppl said
Wow. She's so enchanting. Can you imagine singing this very wordy song with an ounce of elegance and rythm ? She did, and still haunts me to this day. The band are exceptional, may the stars be theirs ! 👍💗🎇
Wow
elegance and rhythm u hit the nail on the head there
And David Letterman was a first class jerk when he had her on his show, and I was a Letterman fan!
@@georgedavall9449 What did he do?
@@bunpeishiratori5849 She is very much as she appears in the video, a sweet soul, and is a person of faith, and he seemed to try and ‘trip her up’ with some of his questions, and almost seemed to make fun of her. His approach was almost of a mocking one? I don’t know how to best describe it, from memory, but it seemed disrespectful to me. She seemed very uncomfortable as well. I lost some respect for him. Stay safe and peace. 😊
It reminds me so much of the 90s. That tail end of it. So nostalgic.. This song is so beautiful. She's All That with Rachael Lee Cook and Freddie Prinze. Jr. That 90s feeling. Makes you realize you only live moments. Gotta cherish them. Love is beautiful Today, I dedicate to my special lady. Times flies.
This song seems like one of those magical moments in time where everything comes together perfectly- that music! that voice!!! Thank you
1997, this was pre y2k lol
I remember when this and Daft Punk's One More Time were hits.
