Chris looks happy in this video.
I’m still in love with Miki, & always will be.
Proper pop music. It could have been a hit in the 1960s.
Or early 80s!
@@TracyRichards-lg4mq It's very important to you that things are 'blown away'.
@@TracyRichards-lg4mq Are you?
@@TracyRichards-lg4mq I didn't say it was epic, or a number one, but I turned 13 in 1961, so I know (as well as ANYone) what a 60s hit sounded like.
They had enduring hits in the nineties.👍👍👍👍
Its interesting that Lush always claimed to be outside of Britpop, yet this is the MOST Britpop sounding song ever.
They changed their sound quite a bit at this point. The stuff that go them noticed was a bit more trippy.
Lush preceded britpop.. But yes
Every Britpop band claimed they weren't part of the scene or that they resented the label. Lush's first two records were very shoegaze-y but their last record smacks of jumping on the Britpop bandwagon, sadly at the point it was running out of steam.
The thing is, "Lovelife" is ripe with tick-offs towards Britpop, especially addressing male dominance in the genre. Melodically, this song is super ironic, rather than succumbing to the mid-90s Britpop hype. But it's super regardless...
You know who else isn't britpop? 4AD! Hmm! 😃
They seemed so happy in this quirky and wonderful video. Chris with his wonky glasses looked so content. It's such a shame things changed. I still love the song and love the video.
If you don't mind can you tell what happened?
@@Mk-bz8oq The drummer, Chris, committed suicide. This obviously changed everything and soon after Lush disbanded.
@@22Phantasm As I understood it, seems that although things looked good from the outside, the band was already on the verge of breaking up before Chris Acland killed himself (Emma seems to have been ready to split and Miki seems to have already planned to quit doing music professionally if she wasn't going to do it with Lush, lots of rumors why but I'm not sure which to believe or reject) and that the issues inside the band (particularly possibly breaking up) may have been part of the reasons Chris decided to just check out of life.
And... that of course was the final straw, Lush was definitely breaking up after that happened.
Never heard this song, before. 🇺🇸
Just bought a 1957 retro edition FIAT 500.
Car dealer, sent me here.

Only a few bands could pull a track like this off, and Lush was most certainly one of them. They were criminally underrated, but I'm a way, it was a good thing as they didn't have big music breathing down their necks and ruining their product.
there's something so bittersweet about this song and especially the video
Great song and super underrated band! LUSH forever!
I love how they managed to fit so many typical 90s TV car adverts in a music video
I read in an interview that Miki drove into a ditch accidentally during the filming
Britain had/has so much good music. Kids out there must spend a damn fortune on Vinyl/Cd's and cocerts.
I ain’t no kid but my late teens and early twenties in the early 90’s...my CD album collection is well over 100...then again I am a (smashy and nicey voice) Hospital Radio DJ mate. 🤙🏻
Fiat owe Lush all their revenue post 1996. Was this ever in a 500 ad? If not, we're living in some weird bizarro universe.
This delicious ''500'' and ''Friday I'm In Love'' are the best guitar pop songs from the 90's
💗 Lush 💗
Somewhere in the missed chances of shoegaze... there's a song/video with Miki singing on a Galaxie 500 song and her lead footing a a bright red 7.4L 60s Ford across the desert.
Nearly 20 years have gone by since Chris Acland died, to see him here thrashing a car a-là Basil Fawlty is both hilarious and sombering.
More sombering to see Miki singing, "Let's run away and be so alive." to him shortly before he went and killed himself. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if Miki can't bear to watch this video because of that.
@@seldon913 ugh
@@seldon913 She didn't pick up a guitar for years after the band broke up, it was too painful.
They were a good band for the time although terribly underrated.
+Blood Guts They were amazing. We didn't care for this album when it came out because it was such a move towards a pop band, but listening to it now it's not all that bad. A lot of people that were into grunge at the time kind of shunned Lush and the other shoegaze bands as being too spacey. Shoegaze was just kind of a niche but a niche that some people(including myself)obsessed over.
vista7 grunge was crap anyway,I'd rather listen to the shoegaze bands anyday,anytime and all the other alternative bands from back in that era. Lush did start shifting towards a more poppier sound but you can never accuse them of making the same album over and over, also you can't blame them for at least trying to evolve musically. I'll listen to this song and have fond memories, grunge just makes me want to cut myself up an inch at a time.Though I will give props to Mother Love Bone.
Personally I liked a lot post-punk from SST and Sub-pop, but shoegaze was my favorite. I followed Lush with a group of friends from their early days and we liked the way they evolved. We finally got to see them up close at a small venue for the Split release party We ended up being really disappointed. Miki didn't show up for the session and they were all kind of blah about being there. I think they just got really burned out trying to please all the record execs.
vista7 Yeah,that's how it happens.
I agree
What a delightfully uplifting song .
Welcome Back Lush!
Love this video. So cute.
I have an unconditional love for the 90s
One of my fave bands from the 90s Lush.... and they were!
THE BEST OF 90'S
This video deserves million views!!😤☹️😕
Phil looks awesome here.
Oh! That feeling when you very like both 500 and Jaguar, but now (in 2016) those Golf and Laguna are nostalgic for you too!!!
Nostalgia overload
It makes me want to blow it all up after going back and apologizing to 90's me.
those basslines are masterpieces
Miki & Emma...a match made in heaven. thanks for the great tunes Lush! just saw Miki Berenyi has a book coming out in early Feb. can't wait to read it!!
Fingers Crossed: Memoir of a Lush Life
Book by Miki Berenyi
i love this music video so much
I love this video.
Play this, followed by crash by the primitives, followed by roam by the b52's. Love it!
THIS BAND IS SO UNDERRATED
I keep hearing "Hey Carrie Ann" Hollies on the opening riff?
Memories of university. :)
The most romantic song about a car ever
Such a sweet n cool song
When girls were perfect by not being perfect
What a cute song.
love this song!!!
POP PERFECTION!!!!!!!!!!!
This song and video sends me to another place - the carefree 1990's! - when everything didn't suck. Why aren't songs like this created anymore? Seriously, what happened?
Masterpiece
LOVE LUSH!
I always thought Emma's lead guitar lines sounded very Hank B.Marvin-ish (...no, really - that's no insult). And I love the John Cleese/Fawlty Towers parody at 1:23 in the video!
I love lush cheers from Mexico 🇲🇽
Underrated band, lovely melody & a good catchy chorus with a hook that pulls you right in there. Departed from their early shoegazing material in an effort to break into the britpop movement at the time.
1:22 Brit Pop LOLOLOLOL
I miss these times.
Miki Berenyi, queen of 90
i used to love these so much
Thanks for putting the videos online.
Sooo catchy
This video is so cute
shake a baby shake!
The opening guitars reminds me of John Squire and I almost expected to hear Ian Brown singing. I aint saying this is a blatant copy or anything. In fact this song is great and I love it absolutely.
+danny haobam agreed. was just thinking, very stone roses sounding... or maybe more primal scream's first album
Yeah now you mention it 👍
RIP Chris ❤️
Tonight’s Only Connect episode reminded me of this lovely song
Shake, baby, shake, you know i can fit you in my arms
Brake, baby, brake, taking me in with all you're charms
I've never been inside you but you're so alluring
They call you "little mouse" by name in rome and turin
Looking now at your famous shape
They don't make them like anymore
Shake, baby, shake, you know i can fit you in my arms
Brake, baby, brake, taking me in with all your charms
When things are looking good there's always complications
I can't be with you so i'm at the railway station
Let's run away and be so alive
Escape the drudgery of this nine to five
Shake, baby, shake, you know i can fit you in my arms
Brake, baby, brake, taking me in with all your charms
Shake, baby, shake, you know i worship from afar
Brake, baby, brake, how i wish you were my car
ABSOLUMENT FANTASTIQUE...
Great band!
Best Fiat Advert ever
Such a cool song.... definitely best of British!😀😀😀
I love the reference to a fawlty towers episode at 1:24. So funny.
This is the better video of the two! Thanks 4AD! :)
I bought this 7" single pressed on red vinyl back in 1996 but made the mistake of leaving it in its original PVC sleeve. Over time, the PVC plastic left chemical marks on the vinyl. It still plays great but has hazy spots all over. "Lovelife" and all three corresponding singles were released in PVC sleeves so I'm sure this problem is quite common today.
love it.
happy song!
Shaaaake baby shake 🕺🕺
A good happy song.
2:08 I had that golf in white!
Happy happy, joy joy!
I totally agree
I don't love cars, i like biking. I am in a merry-go-round watching this video. "A horse! Merrygoround in dreams, merrygoround with me" - The RE-P-LA-CEMENTS
eles voltaram!
I love the fact that they diss themselves with this song😭
Miki's the one that "all the blokes fancy", it's true- and she is lovely, no doubt about it- but I think that Emma's few brief shots in this video show how truly stunning she is. Just a matter of taste, but Emma is muy bonita y mucho para me gusto!
Kieran Foster, man your not kidding, Emma is so hot on this and other videos" nothing natural". I can't stop watching her, on this video she looks like a rich beautiful aristocrat. she is not as gestural as Miki. Miki is beautiful too, but Emma says a lot with very little and it works very well for her with mystifying Beauty.
Love some of Emma's live vids, where she misses a line or starts singing on top one of Miki's lines, then starts laughing. She has a beautiful smile going.
@@Romany1111 examples? I wanna watch itttt 😭
@@tomgat6314 One that comes to mind is the ''Ladykiller'' music video. When the line ''Oh my God, the boy has such an ego'' is sung, Emma mimes it as well, she realizes what just happened, then covers her mouth and starts laughing while looking back at Chris
No insult to Miki, but without the record company makeovers I think Emma is the beauty of the group.
A real masterpiece : "Sunbathing",in Gala album...
Lush are always Lush for those who know them!
この動画、メチャクチャ尊敬します😌
Hard to be more britpop than this...
It does sounds great though!
that was nice!
Why FIAT didn't pay a ton to use this song I will never know.
Good thing they didn't! Those things shake like a tin can, which is what they are. Lush is solid, though.
I really did not care for _Lovelife_, but the singles off it are pretty damn catchy.
u know Miki is beautiful...
that accent got real thick on this album
Dreampop :D love it
After reading Miki's book, i can't help but look at all the members in a sort of intimate light.
I see innocent Miki, and think of Nora.
Emma appears, and i feel like she might get pissed off at the director.
Even Miki mentions "bobbing her head it time to the music, like an idiot", and now i picture her
thinking that, while driving the car.
This song makes me laugh because I can always look back through time and see all the oh-so-serious male shoegaze nerds’ heads exploding from disgust and disbelief.
All I want is my own Miki Berenyi. Is that too much to ask for??
i'm terribly sad by the fact that lush never won respect or attention like my bloody valentine, ride, slowdive and cocteau twins
I really think they would if only they would become active again.
@@rakon3163it won't ever feel the same without their drummer Chris Acland not being there.
This must be the most twee pop song ever released……but Miki’s book is really good!
Miki at 2:11 😍
I really wish Miki came back into the spotlight!
"I don't need some dude skateboarding" had me laughing so hard!😂 Most 90's things: dude skateboarding. That may have been a CEO decision.
This is so original and clever. Just tried it at 1.25 speed, and it sounds a lot like Single Girl - same tempo!
I wish the God I could have seen much back in the nineties and under 2016 the Union
If only they’d play again
Shake bye be shake
Really fun little song... but, gotta be the only band that writes and performs such a magnificently pretty poppy tune -
about wanting to drive a fiat.
Yes, I caught what this song was about when it was new so many years ago. Still wrapping my brain around the idea that a fiat deserves such a great song. Also wondering why fiat never tried to get this song for advertising (or maybe they did and the ladies refused?).
When u got ur own first car anthem.
