The energy in the crowd was electric. Top. Work.

[@peleamsterdam]

At 58 years old this justifies my everlasting belief that nothing beats live music. Wonderful song, brilliant band and the crowd just lapping it up. Just beautiful ❤

[@jdaniels57811]

One of the best live songs of all time. Crowds love it.

[@NoBox20]

I was at the front when I was 19 and then stood slightly further back at 32 years old and they still go hard as ever. Best performance and atmosphere I've had at a festival in a LONG TIME. God bless the band

[@user-rs1mc2kn6b]

How can you not watch this and smile.

[@dinogreece]

What a great feeling for the band. Having such a huge crowd singing your song with such enthusiasm and passion.

[@franciscoderosas1647]

Playing PES 2010 with my friends. The best time of my life.

English crowds and festivals are just different class 😍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@Harvey-krishna]

British & irish*

[@williamhogg7282]

I can’t help but think if Glasto was in Ireland and someone commented “Irish crowds are on a different level” no one would make any further comment other than agree. Sad times

​@@Harvey-krishna​​ I worked as a guitar tech so spent a few years travelling to a few countries. I'd rate them in this order from my experience. Argentina (I'm told Brasil is great too but I never worked there), Scottish then English, Welsh and Irish are on par. The Latin countries generally tend to be very good too. The worst I experienced were continental Europe. Glastonbury is special because it tends to attract more of a music crowd as opposed to a lot of festivals were people are there to be there or get pissed up. I'm Irish for the record.

[@firetv3248]

I forgot to add Americans to the worst but maybe it depends what kind of band it is. Canadians aren't great either.

[@EmmaRoydsared]

One of the greatest Indie tracks ever. ❤❤❤ God bless the band ❤

Villa fan coming back from losing to Fulham in the champions final. The whole coach was depressed. I got the driver to put a few tunes on. Started with this. The whole mood changed. Became a party bus. The whole coach singing along. 1 of my most favourite tunes. Great band

[@mekitavit]

I was there. Absolutely buzzing 🎉

[@chrisdaviescd561]

God bless the band

[@EvilPigPowers]

What?! I didn't know The Courteneers were that big! I loved listening to their album St. Jude throughout my teens and early twenties. Always thought they were an underrated indie band. What a wonderful surprise to see a massive crowd dancing and singing along to them!

[@Beefjam8888]

As a musician this must feel unbelievable seeing that reaction to your art

[@wahidkhan-fm9vk]

Seen this tune live several times and it never ever gets old. Euphoric

[@andrewcollins2366]

She had to peel me off the pavement Trying to insinuate Sometimes I am in danger of going too far Said would I like to go for tea and toast? Get your hand off my thigh In the car, she turned to me and said "You're not nineteen forever, pull yourselves together I know it seems strange but things they change Older woman and a younger man Both of them doing all they can" Trying to get your attention All night long asked you once, I asked you twice Asked you four times if you'd like to dance to that song Front crawled the crowd down the stairs And then I followed you out in the rain Nowhere to be found, never mind You'll probably never look that pretty again "You're not nineteen forever, pull yourselves together I know it seems strange but things they change Older woman and ever so slightly younger man God bless the band, they're doing all they can" "You're not nineteen forever, pull yourselves together I know it seems strange but things they change Older woman and ever so slightly younger man God bless the band, they're doing all they can" You're not nineteen forever You're not nineteen forever You're not nineteen forever It's not big, you're definitely not clever
