    Love this band, thank you John Peel (yet again). Gedge’s lyrics are astounding.

      The lyrics are the worst part. Aside the first verse and chorus...the rest are banal as fuck. To me the real divider between a good and great band.

    the man is a total fucking genius who is still knocking it out the park. The youth of today will never care about music like this and thats fine by me

    David Gedge - yeh! 'oh why do you...?!' Great opening to my favourite track from one of my favourite bands of the 80s

      Jumped in Lister Park lake in mid winter and swam up to stage to greet David Gedge on thr strengh of this album. Glory days. Went home or rather taken home by the police to a very disgruntled dad waiting to a bollocking and that's mild way of putting it. 👍🤣🤣😢🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    George Best yep,seen live 1987/88 ,and what can i say,the sound was one of the best,which i experienced.
    This album was really awesome..... when they switched to a Major label ,the spell was gone. ...for me anyway

    Oh why do you catch my eye then turn away?
    I thought we said all the things we had to say
    Shaun said he saw you holding hands with your new friend
    How does it feel to know you've just won again?
    Don't give me that
    Because you were seen
    Everyone thinks he looks daft but you can have your dream (ohh)
    Can I keep that book of yours and maybe this one too?
    Oh sure, I'll bring them round tomorrow if that will do
    Was it really full? They must have queued there since half past three
    Oh I didn't go, was it a good film? Well that's just me
    Don't give me that
    Because you were seen
    Everyone thinks he looks daft but you can have your dream
    Oh you can have a dream
    Guess who I saw by your old house just the other day
    That kid we used to think was mad, but now he looks okay
    I think someone's here, look out the window, I can't make out who
    Oh I'd love to stay but I've really got so many things to do
    Don't give me that
    Because you were seen
    Everyone thinks he looks daft but you can have your dream
    Don't give me that
    Because you were seen
    Everyone thinks he looks daft but you can have your dream (ohh)

    I think the eighties sucked lemons ... largely. This album was one of the few that showed there were some great records made too. Fantastic album.
