Lyrics
You sigh and you walk
You talk
You care about nothing
Sometimes you're feelin'
That life has treated you wrong
I've got a feeling
You know what the score is
Baby
But it's hard when you're sitting here
Surrounded by friends
I've got a love
That I'll cling on to
And I'll stay there
Stay there till the end
I
Have found
An answer
I don't think you don't care
Just you laugh
'Cause you're loaded
And things are different from there
I
Have found
An answer
I don't think you don't care
Just you laugh
'Cause you're loaded
And things are different from there
You walk and you talk
And you sing and you shout
And you justify
About anything
And you rant and you rave and you hope and you say
Nothing
And you eat and you drink and you dress and you live as if
No one else did baby
No one else like you
Lives out in this world
I've got a love
That I'll cling on to
And I'll stay there
Stay there till the end
'Cause one thing I know is
I
Have found
An answer
I don't think you don't care
Just you laugh
'Cause you're loaded
I
Have found
An answer
I don't think you don't care
Just you laugh
'Cause you're loaded
And things are different from there
I
Have found
An answer
I don't think you don't care
Just you laugh
'Cause you're loaded
And things are different from there
I
Have found
An answer
I don't think you don't care
Just you laugh
'Cause you're loaded
And things are different from there
I have found
An answer
I don't think you don't care
Just you laugh
'Cause you're loaded
And things are different from there
I have found
An answer
I don't think you don't care
Just you laugh
'Cause you're loaded

Their best ever. Absolutely brilliant. I saw them in Glasgow in 1989 when at Uni. Raintown is on of the best Scottish albums ever.

[@evertonluke1166]

As far as live performances go, this one is absolutely terrific. Lorraine's vocals stand out especially.

[@nickson70]

I remember having the privilege to be working at one of their sound checks in Liverpool Summer Pops about 18 years ago. I got to talk to Ricky and Lorraine and they were such a nice couple, and didn't act like stars at all. Ricky asked me to sit down, and then asked what I thought they sounded like - I'll never forget that, Deacon Blue asking me what I though they sounded like! Just to confirm, they sounded amazing - always have. Raintown is one of the best albums ever.

[@filipdebacker9920]

Still one of the best live videos ever😉👍

You really gotta see them, live! 1990 and 2022. Both concerts were AMAZING!

@@GGGritzer I have seen them live twice. They were amazing

[@eightiesmusic1984]

@@neutralfashionI assume you know the concert this is from is on DVD. It was fil med over two nights at the end of 1989. It is astonishingly good and so moving even all these years later. I saw them for the first time at de Montfort Hall, Leicester in the summer of 1989, the first and only time I was on the guest list for anything! They had just knocked Madonna off the top of the album charts with When The World Knows Your Name. Lucky enough to see them a few more times since.

What joy I feel when I hear this...I was in my early 20s...no commitments, nothing...I was travelling to Los Angeles to see my old school mate...I was going to Hawaii, New York, Vegas...Tenerife in the winter...raves, town on a Saturday night, donor kebabs, Pepe jeans, Lacoste polo tops, Jazz aftershave, a flick haircut, a few girlfriends, an outstanding pool player, raced mountain bikes. Now...I'm 53, shaved head, divorced, two grown up kids...take Lansoprazole for acid reflux, have IBS wear Gant or Hugo Boss, Tom Ford aftershave, European trips away, have a watch collection including Rolex and Omega, released the girl I only really loved for her one true love...alcohol and lastly I fly drones and cycle.

[@jackfrost2030]

OMG .... I simply dont have the words to give this song and version of it, the justice it deserves ................. and its 2022, only a mere 35 years AFTER it was written and it sounds better with age, absolutely SUPERB.

[@telsah1]

I used to play their records over and over and over again and sing at the top of my voice till the neighbours decided to go out in their car, and even then I carried on. Pumping up the volume till I felt like I was at their concert. & I played my imaginary piano. Thank you Deacon Blue for making the music that I cling on to.

[@jongreen4373]

Just love it . My wifes family come from a mining village , her father and one of her brothers were miners . They told me that sometimes you had to crawl through a tiny space for maybe nearly a mile just to get to the coal face - and that was unpaid . The lyrics about mining move me deeply . The chances are that most miners died or will die ,young . You've been docked , docked again boys, you've been loaded 3 for 1 What have you to show for working now your mining days are done . Worn out shoes, worn out miners ,blackened lungs and faces pale..... They really deserved more

[@joelbillinton]

best key change in a song ever... Lorraine is the all time whirling dervish

[@andrewpeers1726]

Now this is what you call music.Lorraine Mackintosh's vocals are simply amazing!

[@tracyhartigan1601]

Not to mention her dance moves xxx

[@Dark_Autumn]

2:45 "Tell 'em about it, Jim". I love his playing, excellent. Of course they're all great musicians, it's s a shame Ewan left, and Graeme sadly no longer with us. I've watched this concert so many times and couldn't pick a favourite song...so I'll say all of them! Yep, Lorraine has a great voice, especially on this song and her dance moves are great. She obviously loves being up on stage performing.

[@gary9432]

One of the best bands of the 80s !

[@Michael-tq6xm]

best band i ever saw live, Loraine is so full of love and emotion and so is Ricky in their performance it adds to the energy of seeing them live

[@moiaussi4406]

Saw them on the last tour at the variety in Dublin, over 30 years since I fell in love with their sound as a kid growing up in thatchers (ruined) Britain!

[@eightiesmusic1984]

My wife is French and has learned to love their music. This is so heartfelt and the SECC performance is the best live set I have seen and I wish I had been there. The late eighties is so long ago now and it really is sliding into history. They sang songs that critiqued the disaster of Thatcherism, the ill winds that blew through the economy and whole of society. The consequences are still felt today. It breaks my heart to think that many of the audience will have experienced wholly unnecessary travails due to a system that is rigged against the working person from start to finish. Keep your hand upon your wages and your eyes on the scale indeed. That was when the unions were inclined to fight but not anymore.

[@fredliston9352]

A superb album and this has to be one of the top tracks, if one can be chosen from such a fine selection - Ricky's passion is coupled with a voice that conveys everything meant about the song; the additional joy of Lorraine's subtle and yet powerful contribution creates something really special. Absolutely wonderful.

I've kept this to myself for many many years.... 33 infact!!!... Deacon Blue were performing in The Palace in St Kilda, Melbourne, Australia... Even though I'm a loud n proud Scot, I lived there at the time!!!... I had given birth to my first child 13 weeks premature, but, was encouraged to step away from my son's incubater, fir just the 1 night, to see this band from my hometown... Well, I did go, but got there so early, it was only myself and my ex husband who was there fir the soundcheck!!!... Once they finished, Rikky put his arm around Lorraine and I knew immediately, they were together!!!!... I was utterly disgusted as I knew Ricky's wife... I grew up with her!!!.... I was gutted for her!!! 😭😭😭😭.... 33 years later, it still disgusts me!!!!!!!
