Mansun - Legacy on 'Top Of The Pops', 1998

[@Draper-m7n]

The intro...i was about to cry

[@Oil_Burner]

Possibly one of the greatest bands of all time and I so fucking miss them.

He's playing a full mansun album on his solo tour 👍

[@cazb877]

Same here 💜

[@Muskateering]

Ah the 90s, the last great decade of mainstream rock.

[@clairecarlia-jones5979]

I actually cried when mansun split up. I was in my thirties at the time but they meant so much to me that I sobbed like a teenager. I still love their music. They were so honest and uncompromising, and provided a wonderful alternative to the mostly terrible music of that era xx😘💝

[@slyasleep]

they were truly original and didn’t hold back emotionally

[@AfternoonLemon]

Absolutely underrated band, I don't understand why they weren't so much more successful.

[@cazb877]

Loved Mansun back in the day, have both their albums, absolute masterpieces both of them 💜💜

[@fooman65]

What about the other two albums?

[@cazb877]

fooman65 Only bought the first two, will have to have a belated listen to the other two.

[@davidleng7297]

When great arty, articulate, serious, subtle rock musicians could find a mainstream space!

[@cynzia_d]

great song.... so much truth in these words.....

[@k3zzyP]

I can relate to every word of this song both I'm my past and in my present..Yeah great song :)

[@bpm1200]

I wish I knew this beautiful song sooner.

[@GhostRider247]

what a fukin song !!! i bought this when it came out on tape , god thats such a long time ago 98 ... iwas 32 now 53 , this is fukin timeless , how iwish i could go back ......

[@hooksncrosses3419]

I remember seeing the video for this song on Mtv back when they played music! I was 15 at the time and fell in love with this song. I'm 36 now and music is totally soulless now.

[@giorgiorevolver8527]

Probably the most underestimated band in the world

[@patkelly3966]

He had a good voice and they had nice melodies. Some interesting concepts too.

[@slyasleep]

Amazing to think that this was a Top 10 hit.

[@vaduzcrew]

paul really has a character in his voice!

[@demetriorex]

One of my favorite songs of all time!!!

[@NigelFortune]

Yes its nice to see great bands acknowledge other great bands who don't get the recognition they deserve. I would love to see a Mansun reformation too :-)

[@viknunkoo9381]

great song, loved this back in the day, still do as it goes

[@AviatorRider]

What a song !! What a band !! Thank you Paul for sharing this video with us.

[@playerbru]

beautiful song!

[@gintonic666]

That is so true. I think Mansun was the BEST fucking band in the world. Ever.

[@NigelFortune]

Great band great song..

[@regsideboard6816]

Very underrated group

[@Camelsarse]

Just chatting with someone that loves Mansun as much as i do! God i miss the 90's xxxxxxxxx love to everyone

[@khaniboy]

Beautiful

[@Nieghorn]

@K33f4 Totally agree, and I'd say MANY of their b-sides are fantastic. There's at least two solid albums worth of material that never appeared as such ... during their time, that is.

[@prezakid9]

Nieghorn see their posthumously released album Kleptomania

[@vaughanie23]

Mansun the "Brian Clough" of popular music....................legends that never were :(

[@testcardgirl26]

love this song! XD

[@dingodave3016]

Best band ever absolute quality

[@薔薇薫麻美]

i love legacy

[@pigriser]

Brilliant, never realised this went top 10.

[@Grazia2]

Still loving Mansun... ;D Paul's new works are simply FAB. :D :D :D XXXXXXXX

[@jasefrazz07]

hope you're enjoying the new album, long time coming, but my god worth the wait, fantastic

[@Grazia2]

Ciao Jason, sorry for my very late reply. Yes, I love Paul's new album, those unique sounds, lyrics and his voice still so wonderful!! :D :D :D XXX

[@userdetails1]

Mansun aren't here anymore, but we do care.

[@congotronics]

the greatest

[@NohStar]

love this song so much

[@iforwardhamish]

so was i! they sent a really cool cd with all thier labelmates a food once i believe it was called ' a flvour of the label" mansun are still on of my favourite bands. this song is possibly the best....

[@dopiaza2006]

Shame they're miming to the studio version - Mansun are one of the few bands that actually sound so much better live!

[@markt1982]

Much better than wide open space. That riff ...

[@mycurse751]

ME GUSTA! :)

[@vaduzcrew]

Brilliant tune! where are they now???

[@Prizzy999]

Great song from a truly great band. The best indie band Britain has ever produced IMHO. I've always loved Mansun and always will. Stove's current address&cell number anyone?:)

[@mystro810]

This is a really good song. The only reason I ever heard it is because I watched this guy playing a guitar pedal demo and he happened to play a few bars of this tune. It sounded brilliant so I had to look it up. Pity nobody knows this song in the states. Music is in a coma over here. Rock needs another kick in the ass like Kurt Cobain gave it in the early 90's

[@dark1ankh]

This band should have been big. Not fecking Coldplay !

[@NigelFortune]

Greatly underrated band. Radioheads equals.

[@dopiaza2006]

Real shame it's just miming - they are fucking awesome live!

[@vikingmog]

I didn't actually realise it was a single

[@earlofeastjurong]

can anyone find the official music video for this anymore? its the one with marionettes going through the usual stages of a band in a recording contract.

[@marinoOverboard]

So sad life

[@omad84]

I CONCEDE RELATIONSHIPS HAVE LEFT ME WEAK WONT BE HERE SO I DONT CARE

[@medinneruk]

bye then!

[@postieding]

top of the top indie bands

[@TheMusicalElitist]

Not an indie band though. They were on a major. Try again, potato.

[@dingodave3016]

Hahahahahaha and you call yourself themusicalelitst.oh dear love

[@TheMusicalElitist]

@@dingodave3016 Was that an insult? You do realise Parlophone were part of EMI - a major? You really are a cretin.

[@southofheaven4321]

love them,, but thats so the cd their playing 2,, good old top of the pops never letting any1 play live,,

[@southofheaven4321]

MusicalElitist1 its definitely the cd their playing to. And theres fuck all wrong with my typing. You could read it ok enough to start talking out your arse..

[@Derbster1981]

@MusicalElitist1 If you can’t hear that they are miming then you aren’t much of a Musical Elitist

[@southofheaven4321]

@@Derbster1981 well said.

[@JD-eq4dp]

Oh dear

[@drongovids]

you had to mime on totp unfortunately

[@leetaylor7478]

Yup, if you didn't lip--synch/mime you didn't get on TOTP - simple. Still a great song/performance.

[@TheMusicalElitist]

No you didn’t.

[@TheMusicalElitist]

@@leetaylor7478 not true

[@oistarski]

i wouldnt care if i was washed up tomorrow

[@Deliaboard]

nobody cares when you´re gone.

[@tomsega]

They're a great band and one of the most underrated of the 90s.. but I suppose their lack of stage presence compared to their peers might have something to do with it. They do sort of look like random guys off the street..!

[@BMFSTONECOLD2]

This is such a great suicide song.

[@soothdoom]

great band/ great song/ this performance definately lip synched

[@fooman65]

soothdoom it's Top of the Pops, ALWAYS mimed.

[@tomhwoods]

How dare you! Shed 7 never made any distinctive songs that worked as singles to compare as the Mansun era like. Just listen to Mansun's three LP releases: Attack Of Tthe Grey Lanten; Six and ; and the third album....Pick any singles and check them out ...

[@Verdoux007]

People give that comment thumbs down because it's so pretentious. Throwing that phrase around doesn't make you any deeper or smarter.

[@su79nioj]

Nobody cares when you´re gone.
