Manic Street Preachers - Rewind the Film ft. Richard Hawley

One day the whole world will wake up and see how special this band truly are. No other British band in the past 20 years has come close. They are our national treasures.

I love you. This song introduced me to your music.

[@hariskita9528]

Tears stream. I missed my childhood. I miss my parents when their both young and im just a kid. Please rewind the film

[@Emeraldman]

A song that looks back at innocence, community, respect, values and more importantly love. These are things that are vanishing away like a shadow in the sunlight these days.

I saw Rewind tour back in 2013 at the Newport Centre its only a few miles down the road from me it was fantastic , it was the first night of the tour , i remember going to get tickets , it was july and the gig was on sept 13th i got 2 for me and a mate got home and went on FB and saw people saying all tickets sold , well thanks a bunch , and Richard Hawley a cracking voice

[@Georges_Castaneda]

😢 I cried, this song really penetrates into every corner of the soul. Richard is one of my favorite artists, thank you friend.

[@reverentalexanderchezeley-6367]

Yep I grew up about 30 minutes away down the road from here. Literally nothing to do as a child growing up in the 70's and 80's. Though a beautiful place, with beautiful Welsh people, also a soul destroying place. Great song to. Thank you my friend.

Manic Street Preachers featuring the beautiful people of Wales & the inimitable Richard Hawley: a mix of smiles & tears, celebrating the Welsh mining communities of better times...

[@chuckschwartz2194]

As an American, I know nothing about growing up Welsh, but this video and this song make me wish I knew more... God Bless Wales.

[@iainrobb2076]

That mandolin like guitar part James brings in just before he starts singing is absolutely stunning.

[@drc123691]

When James voice kicks in I close my eyes and remember bittetsweet that I was born and raised Welsh. I fuckin love this song/video

[@panz3r696]

lol this is my comment from 3 years ago with a different youtube account, its the first time since then i could bring myself to watch it again, makes me cry every time thinking of my parents

[@fju2112]

I'm not in the least Welsh, but I can tell that if I were, the song would be even more powerful than I already find it to be.

[@Rondawwg]

PanZ3r69 played this song at my dads funeral. That was 18 month ago. First time I’ve listened to it again today.

[@burkezillar]

This came out about 2/3 months after my Dad died. Not going to lie, fairly difficult to listen to this song without thinking about him. But then again that's the power of music isn't it? Nicky Wire wasn't thinking about his Dad when he wrote it, but all I can think about is my Dad and when I was a child with him when I listen to it.

[@justMe-rd4sw]

Michael Burke hope you are getting on ok

[@burkezillar]

I am mate thank you

[@kringles4]

Michael, this song has caused me many tears also concerning my childhood which was a happy one. It is riveting. Hope you are well. Best Wishes from Boston.

[@panz3r696]

me too, cant listen to this without crying

[@Irisplove]

My Dad died a couple of years ago, but when I first saw this, there was something about it that reminded me of him. He seemed so much like those folk - in his late 60s, a retired working-class man. Now, after he has passed, the song has so much more resonance for me and it can be hard for me listen to it.

[@WHITEYBHOY2]

I burst in to tears as soon as James started singing.Mr Hawley lulled me into sense of comfort.Heartbreaking soaring Manics ,only band with any relevance these days.

[@michaeloneill4292]

❤❤❤❤

[@cazb877]

Resonates so much with me at the minute this song, lost my Dad a few weeks ago 🥲 It’s about a dying generation of hard working, working class people where community, respect for each other, loyalty friendship and principles mattered. Values that are sadly lacking in many communities these days and which have been eroded by Tory scum, where it’s all about greed and selfishness.

[@tmttvf]

You're spot on with the description. I hope you're doing better.

[@mckendrick4046]

@cazb877 Hit the nail right on the head, there. Hope you're doing well.

[@issyjas3309]

indeed, you've summed that up perfectly. thought id seen the worst that Politicians could offer with Thatcher, didn't bank on Sunak and his gang of immoral spivs and chancers

[@vicenteparragarcia7688]

one of the best Uk bands ever, stupidly underrated by the...mmm, society.

[@jh2536]

This song and the cinematography pulls my heart strings back to the community that I’m from. It reminds me of my wonderful father and makes me proud. Ebbw Vale and all the folk there, the hard working, proud, kind, Welsh people it resonates for. Absolutely heart wrenching song from the Manic Street Preachers. A masterpiece in my mind.

[@idicula1979]

Everything fades to memory the sweetness of mourning drifts away and withers to stale. Life once new with promise and bursts is lost to deaths embrace. But hope, hope never dies, never dries for want of quenching, for want of dews greetings in mourning air, hope lives eternal that we meet again in springs unfailing.

[@gwynevans6440]

It gets me every time, every single time. "There is too much heartache; in the nothing of the now" those words get truer with each passing year.

[@henningschmidt7716]

What a Masterpiece. Absolutely underrated.

[@davidwilliams6525]

Represents the sadness of the Welsh Valleys and the loss of the collieries and hence jobs. Is a natural follow on from Show Me the Wonder and Anthem for a Lost Cause. So very sad for a Valley boi!!

[@Skaterbun]

For anyone who feels nostalgic about the life they once knew but now no more

[@poemarnan5498]

When I hear this, I instantly think of all my friends who are no longer with us. From 30 years ago to the most recent.

[@swagalicious34]

An absolute masterpiece of a music video.

Everytime Manic Street Preachers composed a song , A Masterpiece is made ... I could cry hearing this song because it's so perfect

[@dtaylor9673]

For anyone like me, who once lived through and witnessed the decline of a once proud UK industrial community this video is emotional. Great music, production, lyrics and atmosphere.

[@doctorwhat3683]

I hope someone can hear me out here. This is a fantastic song, absolutely one of the best the Manics have done in the post-Richey days. But it should not be at the place it is on the album. It’s track 3, but because of its amazing build and summing up the album’s themes of nostalgia and the good and bad of the past, it would work amazingly as a closer. I still love the Rewind album but where this song comes has always bugged me. I’m not the only one, am I?

[@ameliawolinska9562]

The first Manic Street Preachers song I ever listened to. Amazing ❤

[@JoeyKayeThomas]

When James's voice comes in it just gives me goosebumps

[@peterbradley8280]

This video is an absolute stunner. From the panoramic landscapes to the detail of fingers gripping the bridge. It captures totally the sentiment of MSP's song. Goosebumps every time I see and watch. Oh, and not forgetting Richard's perfect inclusion into this song. Couldn't have been anyone else. My faith in today's music still burns very strong.

[@oldskertonion]

So moving in both word and picture

[@pauljohn6637]

This song is very moving, makes you feel so sad, as does Anthem for a lost cause. I grew up at the head of the Valleys. I moved on jumping ship and emigrating to the States back in 1991 at 32. I was lucky I got out, but am proud to be a valley boy and Welsh. The MSP never leave me forget where I am from. Wales, and being Welsh made me the person I am!

[@eightiesmusic1984]

Great comment. I hope you are doing ok in life.

Richard Hawleys voice is perfect for this, great when you get a collaboration of two of your favourite artists , magical

[@ToxicBATjizz]

What a beautiful, evocative film and piece of music from The MSP. It speaks of the bonds that unite us all and create communities. Communities that have systematically been dismantled and destroyed by successive English governments,

[@WOLFROY47]

governments don't destroy community people do, it's called divide and conquer. you get policemen from yorkshire to bully mine workers from wales, and policemen from wales to bully mine workers from yorkshire. get the picture ? now, you've got the same thing with fracking. when are we going to learn, to stop fighting each other, and refuse. to fight each other ? it's their parents today, but it's your parents tomorrow, and because you didn't stick together YOU destroyed your community

[@marleyite]

[@tonip684]

I feel so happy that their music has developed with them and is still as beautiful as it always has been. There would be nothing worse than at this time in their lives; older, feeling different and developed that they would try to repeat anything like the holy bible or generation terrorists. They are staying true to what they want to create and not what people want to hear. I can't wait to see them in Manchester :)

[@saikun6005]

I don't know how they do it, but they continue to kick ass for so long. This song is no exception - and it's so outlandishly far from anything they done before. Nostalgic, powerful, uplifting, alive...instant classic.

Show me the wonder, How the UK was. Rewind the film: How it is now, such a poignant melody and video. Got to say, everything this band has done is golden! The music James Dean Bradfield and Sean Moore compose has always fitted the lyrics. Such an amazing band MSP are.

[@brianday2396]

It's a grower, I think. It's a long time since they produced anything with such a strong sense of beautiful desolation. Hawley's voice fits the song perfectly, but you can't help wishing there was more of JDB in it. Got to say though, whenever the Manics collaborate with other artists, the results are unfailingly brilliant.

These new videos and songs from MSP are just incredible :) some of their best work yet

[@tonip684]

They've grown, they're albums aren't comparable. The simplicity of this album is going to be what is beautiful. I'm glad they have developed the music with their current state of minds or lives, and not catered to the old Manics the fans want but they just can't be.

[@rickenbackerfireglo]

A masterpiece.

[@robertdowning1459]

Stunningly brilliant - I love it when the Manic surprise us - RH voice is haunting, James' lets us know it's 100% Manic magic. 'Trippy", 60s lilt, melancholic - in a 'Small Black Flowers' way but not as dark (Come home Ritchie.)

[@riverdangelo7919]

beautiful, just beautiful . . . father time is undefeated, you know?

[@RvdKlein]

This song, and coincidentally clip (which is a thing of beauty) I think, depict the state of many of Wales', the UK's or Europe's small villages. It has become near impossible to live there. People moving out, seeking a way of survival in the bigger cities. The people left behind, driven into pure frustration by the impoverishment of their, once so vibrant towns. A small point of light is the wonderful people who manage to keep their spirits up and try to find comfort in their community.

[@rowanleaf9892]
