Lyrics:
So-called Mr Rock & Roll,
Is dancing on his own again,
Talking on his phone again,
To someone who tells him that his balance is low.
He's got nowhere to go, he's on his own again.
Rock Chick of the century,
Is acting like she used to be,
Dancing like there's no-one there.
Before she never seemed to care,
Now she wouldn't dare.
It's so Rock & Roll to be alone.
And they'll meet one day far away,
And say, 'I wish I was something more.'
And they'll meet one day far away,
And say, 'I wish I knew you, I wish I knew you before.'
Mrs Black & White she's never seen a shade of grey,
Always something on her mind,
Every single day.
But now she's lost her way,
And where does she go from here?
Mr. Multicultural sees all that one can see,
He's living proof of someone very different to me.
But now he wants to be free,
Free so he can see.
And they'll meet one day far away,
And say, 'I wish I was something more.'
And they'll meet one day far away,
And say, 'I wish I knew you, I wish I knew you before.'
He'll say, 'I wish I knew you
I wish I met you when time was still on my side.'
She'll say, 'I wish I knew you
I wish I loved you before I was his bride.'
And so they must depart,
Two many more broken hearts.
But I've seen that all before,
In T.V, books, and film and more.
And there's a happy ending,
Every single day.
And they'll meet one day far away,
And say, 'I wish I was something more.'
And they'll meet one day far away
And say, 'I wish I knew you, I wish I knew you before

This is exactly, what I just thought. I had the honor to experience Amy in December 2022 at the Night of the Proms in Hamburg. For me, this act was an absolute highlight. Amy comes on stage - and dominates it. Only a few artists manage to do that. And her music? Just amazing!

I remember I used to listen to this song in our car every time our family were going on a trip when I was about 4-5 years old! Never thought i'd find this song again, but I did! It brings back the memories! I'm here now as 18 years old, I've missed this song! ❤️😄

Amy MacDonald and her music is my favourite so far in this century. Find it refreshing. Folk rock at it's best...It says so much.

[@isadoralizpereira7873]

Interessante

[@1wongatonga]

Those lines. "I wish I knew you, I wish I met you, when time was still on my side". Bitter sweet memories of this song. My children and I used to sing this all the time! My then wife and I were on rocky ground at the time and this would help with the hurt...🙏🏾🤎

[@amorelle111]

Just heard this in my hairdressers earlier. It nearly made me cry and it's such a brilliant song, even now in 2023! She's so talented. I got to see her play about 5 years ago maybe with Simple Minds and Chrissie Hynde. She's fantastic live. This will be my new ear worm for the next week, and for once I won't mind!

[@markhammett397]

This lady could sing to me for the rest of my life and I would never tire from her voice. Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!

[@katec9893]

10 years ago I was in a long distance relationship with a man who lived in London. I used to listen to this song every single time I took the coach down to see him. It always made me feel sad but I also felt compelled to listen to the song every time, not quite knowing why, it's a difficult feeling to describe. I think it's because I knew deep down we weren't right for each other, but I also loved him, and the song seems to connect to that feeling about mismatched couples and broken hearts and hope. The song still gives me this kind of sick feeling of doom in my stomach that I used to feel about that relationship, at the same time as giving me hope for the future and for finding the right person.

[@tomjones688]

Bruh, i love this comment. Funny how songs are tied to people in such wildly differing ways. For me this song will always take me back to my early teens, it came out while me and my family were on holiday camping in Wales. I was flicking through the channels on the wind up radio we took with us, and this came on. We all ADORED it and I spent the rest of the weekend spinning the radio over and over searching for it again, got lucky a few times and so its completely tied to that for me and my family whenever it comes on in our house.

[@katec9893]

@D Jones That's such an interesting way of looking at it, you're right, thanks. I just re listened to it and it made me think that in a different life or in a different timeline perhaps me and this man would have been right for each other, but for various reasons in this lifetime we just weren't, and my heart and gut kept trying to tell me that by telling me to play this song, but it took me a while to face up to how I really felt because I cared about him a lot and enjoyed his company and didn't want to end what seemed like a mostly good relationship. It was very painful, but I felt and still feel relieved that I set us both free. I hope he is happy and settled with a woman who feels happy with him and doesn't have a knot in her stomach about their relationship the way I did.

[@katec9893]

@@tomjones688 It seems to be a song that really connects to people and stays with them. That sounds like a great memory with your family and it's nice that you still listen to it.

[@katec9893]

​@D Jones Thanks, I am open to meeting someone again, I'll see what happens, hopefully I will know when I have met him and I won't feel a knot in my stomach this time.

[@retsdon]

It's just a relationship. If it's any good it will last, despite the split. You can still stay friends you know. Or you'll get back together, Or it'll burn out. Whatever...Relationships are two edged swords really. My advice? Look at the heart. You want someone with a good heart - not just a good heart for you personally, but a good heart in general. And the better the heart you find, the happier you'll be. Took me nearly 50 years to appreciate that.....

[@RockinAtheist]

Yeah, I used to be Mr Rock 'n' Roll - DJ supreme - thought I was going to make waves. Instead I barely made a ripple. And now at 76 I'm listening to Amy Macdonald and grateful there are still people around who can write and perform meaningful music like this. Thank you Amy - you are wonderful.

I don't know why, but I always thought she were singing "... and so they must depart, two many moral broken hearts..." which would have made perfect sense to me and still does to this day. But the actual lyrics are just as wonderful.

[@ytd1405]

Listening to this in 2022.. it brings back a lot of memories to when times were easier and much more simpler than it is now 💜 O life, what have you done to us ? Will there ever be a 'happy ending' for us ? Or are we too fool to think there is one ?

A long time ago, back when this song was new, my mum had a CD of it. So when I was younger, this was the song I used to hear whenever mum drove me anywhere, which means that most of my childhood memories are intertwined with this song. It was only by rewatching an old videotape of my family trip to Scotland (from 2012) that I was able to find this eventually, and I’m happy that it’s still just as good of a song as I remember.
