The Pale Fountains - From Across The Kitchen Table

- The Pale Fountains' Ian Broudie-produced second record ditches a couple of the scatterbrained influences of the debut, so it makes for a slightly more consistent listen. Not all of the odd wrinkles are abandoned, though; they still sound as if they are trying too hard to distinguish themselves from the rest of the flock. The Fountains' strength lies in folksy pop, but on a few too many occasions, the incessant smoothness and inability to latch onto one style holds them back. Surprisingly, the title track is almost synth-pop, but a smattering of horns makes sure it isn't completely such. On "September Sting," they try their hands at Laurel Canyon country-rock and fall flat on their jumpers. When they want to, they can write finely tuned, sophisticated pop songs that are quite pleasant. Instrumentally, "Stole the Love" doesn't sound a great deal different from the Smiths. "Shelter" and "Jean's Not Happening" are fine strummers. Though a decent record and an improvement over the debut, Kitchen Table frustrates. They were too anxious to zig or zag when they could have stayed the course. After establishing themselves as a cult band, The Pale Fountains eventually broke up, with Michael Head forming the similarly cultish Shack.
one of the most underrated bands and songs. everyttime i play this, i forget all the shit that's happening around the world and for the five minutes and so, i experience real bliss.
Just discovered this band by accident today. I am 59 and from north west England (Manchester) and don’t know how I missed them. Love all the instruments.
I'm from the Philippines and I like the British bands of the 80s..yhey are cool..especially this song.
parehas tayo bro👍
Who gives a F where you're from..
Hello, fellow Pinoy 😃
I also grew up listening yo 80’s New Wave and this is one if my favorites
Ganyan tunog ng utot ko
2023 now,never stop listening this my fave song of Pale Fountains
I am glad I discovered this video, it inspired me to watch "Saturday Night and Sunday Morning". Lovely film!
a legendary album, which will have marked the history of pop music. In another style, largely as good as their 1st opus. Produced by Ian Broudie
I hear this once in our school fair in 89 and never left my mind. This is the version I love as it presents the Magnificent, Awesome voice of the backup lady vocal and always wonder who she was. The trumpets also add to its zing. Perfect!
it reminds me of Juliet Roberts, vocalist in the "Working Week" band
Incredible song, wants me to go through life all over again.
An underrated masterpiece from the heads brothers
2024年に聴いても変わらずかっこいいね😊
Michael Head is one of the best british Songwriters✌🏻👍🏼
This song is just absolutely incredible.
This is absolutely magnificent. Never, ever heard it before. The lyrics are so, so fresh.. The Saturday Night And Sunday Morning video is perfect 🥰. Love this!! ❤
I loved that band during the 80's. That song here is a remixed extended version of the original song. The orignal version is much better.
Immense groupe des 80's ! génies musicaux !!! Depuis seul Beirut me transcende...
Ho riscoperto i Pale Fountains dopo anni💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Très bon groupe de NEW WAVE
In a cheap hotel room the miraculous way you bucked up
when I said you were incredibly beautiful
remember Arthur Seaton said he won't be beaten
look at jimmy price what with the weight of Christ
I don't know they say maybe it's the water across the kitchen table
and I don't know they say maybe it's the water
you saved my life, I fought you
you should have told me to stop
oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
you saved my life, I fought you
you should have told me to stop
oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
i've seen all your hooks, read the important books
and thought about the disabled
but the only thing between you and me is the fact you laugh when i'm unstable
but I don't know they say maybe it's the water across the kitchen table
and i don't know they say maybe it's the water
yeh, you saved my life, I fought you
you should have told me to stop
oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
Bada ba ba... Bada ba ba... Bada ba ba... Bada ba ba...
Bada ba ba... Bada ba ba... Bada ba ba...
yeh, you saved my life, I fought you
you should have told me to stop
oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
you saved my life, I fought you
you should have told me to stop
oh, why did you let me keep on going for you?
you saved my life, and I rold you to STOP, STOP, STOP...
Thanks for the lyrics!

Different version than the album (aka my tape from a million years ago?)? I do like...
This is the version from the CD Virgin issued. Think it was remixed by Gordian Troeller (as was Bicycle Thieves). I prefer the original vinyl LP version of both Table and Bicycle Thieves.
That's not the version on my CD, was it changed again?
What's the movie used?\m/
Albert Finney in Saturday night and Sunday morning. Made him a star.
Which film is being shown?
Alfa Saturday Night and Sunday Morning, a 1960 film starring Albert Finney as a factory worker juggling relationships with two women.
Thank you Andy for the info.
The character's name is Arthur Seaton I think, Jimmy price is lead in look back in anger
@@waynethomas7406 Wasn't Jimmy Price a boxer back in the 1980's? Irc I think it's Jimmy Porter in Look Back In Anger. :/ I might be wrong.
What's the footage from?

wow this isn't the version i know and love, weird mix, wheres the guitars !
Its a later remix. I have original on the vinyl LP.
Always preferred the original album vinyl version. This one just doesn't have the energy of the original. Its a later remix. The brass doesn't work for me. Prefer the guitar based arrangement

Asan? Hindi makita?
ah, it is a remixed extended version. I prefer the original.
A lo
I never liked this single version of the song, the LP version is so much better. The production on the single does seem to prefigure the sound of Shack’s first LP Zilch.
