I can see a long way down
Heaven had the time to grow
Heaven had the time to grow

Now the fire's burned down low
Lying in the afterglow
Living in your afterglow

I can make it right for you
Even if you had to go
Even if you had to go

I can walk away from you
Only if you want me to
Tell me that you want me to

Even if you had to run
Even if you had to run

remind me of Porcupine Tree

Supergrass really turned out some exceptional stuff - I wonder if they would have garnered more serious critical acclaim if the video for Alright had been done differently.

A lot of great songs sound a little like Pink Floyd.

I keep checking to see if this song is over so I can un-mute the station. 




Wish I could mute all those hater accounts.
I really am digging this song on first listen. Thank you RP!

I thought this sounded a lot like early Pink Floyd (pre-Dark Side). Very very impressive. This group keeps surprising me, I am going to have to pick up some of their music.



Care to share any feedback Relayer?   You know that I trust your tastes and judgement.

This would be great back-to-back with some Porcupine Tree/Steve Wilson/Blackfield... just sayin'

In this song they are PF/Genesis wannabes in a nice way.

Fantastic! Anyone could suggest more great-outro songs? By great outro I mean that it might just go on and on... My list so far:

Pink Floyd - A Saucerful of Secrets / Celestial Voices.
Pink Floyd - Echoes
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Sir Psycho Sexy (outro).
This one fits well, so: Supergrass - Run

We were, we're at the end of that loop as of this moment. It's not normal for this station, but it's been happening a bit lately.

This was such a terrific band—inventiveness, humor, master craftsmanship, the whole magilla. One hopes that Gaz Coombes emerges from Supergrass like Albarn did from blur, with a sustained burst of creativity, novel exploration, music to confound and delight us all.

There's a Sesame Street song trying to break out of this.

"Seen the Light" is another great track on the album!

I didn't think, "Beatles", I thought maybe Pink Floyd, or Legendary Pink Dots.  
Posted 14 years ago by nerakdon    [ Reply ]
This is much better than most ELP.
Posted 14 years ago by westslope    [ Reply ]
Well, I love it. 

I think they borrow as much from T-Rex as the Beatles. 
Posted 14 years ago by Propayne    [ Reply ]
SG at their most beatleish. Nice.

Nope, not having it.
A lukewarm, lazy ripoff.
Seriously, this is pissing me off.

Almost ambient.

Funny, they sound like Jellyfish to me.  Of course, Jellyfish drew heavily on the Beatles too, but who doesn't?

"...their everything-old-is-new-again aesthetic can be heard in such albums as the Strokes' Is This It?). But, as this glorious record proves, there are few bands around these days who are as flat-out enjoyable as this trio. The world is a better place for having Supergrass in it."

Boy, did that sound a LOT like 10 cc in the opening . . . and for quite a while after.

Posted 17 years ago by NeilBlanchard    [ Reply ]
What's that on RP, an obscure John Lennon track? Nope, just Supergrass again. This time sounding like a former member of the Beatles, instead of a former member of Fleetwood Mac. Good music though.

not bad. would have to hear the entire album for a truer assesment. Agree, like Air.
Posted 18 years ago by mbop    [ Reply ]
Another good Supergrass song, having followed them from the very beginning. It does sound a little like 'Air' though, which is no bad thing at all!
Posted 18 years ago by deanofox    [ Reply ]
Hrm, in reading everyone else's comments I guess my verdict is that I am just in a grouchy mood today, and that this song is not really obnoxious! I'll listen carefully to it next time, I promise. ;)
