[@FirstOfwounds]

Great news! Just bought your first one on vinyl, costed me an arm and a leg but damn it's such good record so well worth it. Looking forward to your new one.

[@ibz470]

This song is a backdrop to one of the most amazing periods of my life. Post-uni, but a group of friends who came together and partied like we were still there. We used to play this regularly. I miss being young.

[@delwen.b]

I found this song after 10 years. I missed this feeling while listening to this song 🥰

[@stornoway_band]

Thanks Allison. News for you... we are back!

[@thecamryboi]

My dad saw you guys at the Doug Fir in Portland OR in 2009/2010 when this album was released. He purchased this album on vinyl for me, as a 16th birthday gift and had you all sign the front. I still listen to this album to this very day ❤

[@hurrymrhurry9336]

I love how Brian smiles at Adam when he plays the trumpet, it's as if he is thinking 'He's playing trumpet on a roundabout. Brill"

[@brando444]

My god. That drummer. He's...he's beautiful. THAT JAW.

[@mpburns21]

this song has never once failed to brighten my mood

[@benjaminridgway1061]

Listened to a lot of belle and Sebastian and heard this on Spotify. What a beautiful well written song, just perfect in every way.

[@FoshoWolze]

LYRICS: Conquers shining on the ground, The air is cooler And i feel like i just started uni Walking backwards to my van Your at your window, And I'm tripping every time i think of Lying in your attic I can feel the static The storm has broken, Heavens open Send my body out to work But leave my senses In orbit over south east London Wind the window down and pinch Me on the shoulder Whilst I'll be off to dream of Lying in your attic I can feel the static The storm has broken, Heavens open So electrifying, Oh I'm nearly flying Lost my heart between the sheets of lightening I've been singing you this song, Inside a bubble, Been Zorbing through the streets of Cali, We were always meant to be, Zorbing together, And i think its high time we started Lying in your attic I can feel the static The storm is breaking, windows shaking So electrifying, Oh I'm nearly flying Lost my heart between the sheets of lightening Lying in your attic I can feel the static The storm has broken, Heavens open So electrifying, Oh I'm nearly flying Lost my heart between the sheets of lightening

listened to this on BBC 1 on the saturday show with reggie. Ellie Goulding came on and requested this song - now i am listening to it constantly. Glad ive got a replay button :)

[@josafinni8361]

its the season to start listening to this song on repeat again

[@alfiecrosbie1248]

So happy these guys are playing at womad this year.

[@tamasbrenyo1348]

This is one of my favourite songs, heard it 15 years ago on a Hungarian radio station. Instant love for my young soul. I always come back from time to time to find back to my younger self. I'm still disappointed that only 1,5M people watched it, should be 10 times more. Anyway I'm glad you're still active, keep it up, and come to Hungary if you can :)

[@katherinerumley5977]

there are conkers on the ground and I've actually just started uni, this song makes me so happy

[@tael64]

Conkers? What does that mean? Sorry. I'm from the USA, so I don't know the slang (or at least I presume that it's slang. It may just be a word I don't know). Anyway, I agree. This is a wonderful song with a happy feel. :D

[@MrPenguinFingers]

There’s something special about this kind of early 2010s folk-pop-rock. Part of it’s nostalgia talking, but that all too brief indie acoustic revival was a great time in music.

[@cRaZyGiRlGoNeMaD]

There really is, in my early 20s now and I feel like this music takes me back to being in my early teens, when you’re changing and the world is all opening up, it’s this feeling that is so amazing but so distant now. Anyone else seeing this, comment those songs/bands for you and we’ll make a thread.

[@1spissatus]

Remind me of The Incredible String Band from the 1970s. I am 70 and I love Stornaway !

[@craigtilstone]

So many chequed shirts! I’d still wear one today if I could. What an absolutely brilliant song from an absolutely brilliant band.

[@stornoway_band]

Thanks Craig. News for you... we are back!

@Stornoway So awesome to hear you guys are still around!! ❤️ 🤘🏽🤘🏽💕

[@1000bookstoread]

It's a beautiful december morning and this song just seemed perfect for the occasion.

[@oezzimix]

for some reason, I had this song in my head all the time when I was cycling through the Netherlands with my dad, camping at random spots.

[@Copperstick]

Heard this on radio 1 on a late night show - this is such a great track!

[@cathiejoyYoungart]

wonderful - my cousin in the UK introduced me to your music. I lived in Oxford as a child. "Conker shining on the ground"

[@ColossusRhodes]

This is the stuff that should be on the radio, MTV, and winning grammies.

[@janmuenther]

This is plain wonderful. My favourite song of the year so far - and I hear a lot of new music.

[@olivemcmahon]

Absolutely love Stornoway, they were amazing at XFM's gig at the Barfly in January!

[@karlafuentes3503]

Still love this years later

[@jackatkinsongaler]

saw them in oxford today at the botanic gardens and they were soooo good!!!!

[@busterabcat]

I've just realised that TWO different videos were made for this lovely tune.... .....the other shows Brian working in a depot and the band in one of those truckers cafes..... but this one literally makes me quite dizzy just watching it!! ....... which came first?

[@crappertyjones248]

I heard this song on public radio back in 2011 right after I graduated from college while on a trip near the boundary waters in Minnesota.

[@jpcsdw]

Saw them at Truck festival at the weekend. Brilliant. Lovely voice. Great song. The rest of their debut album is also very good. Recommend. Hope to see them at Truck 14.Fab.

[@rickytalk5852]

Just saw their last gig at WOMAD '22. Great band, great people. Nuff love

[@Aydreean]

A wonderful song from a truly wonderful time in my life. I still feel the dew on the grass on summer mornings and feel exactly how I did then with this song.

[@jkfruit2439]

Me too! I saw Stornaway the place, on the weather map on the news and I thought OH YEAH!

[@EDMF_Jack]

Easily in my top 10 bands, this gives me sooo much nostalgia thanks for all the good memories I’ll miss you guys!

[@herbsmanofillrepute]

Stunningly beautiful and evocative song. All the early innocence of a young romance. I love the first few lines about that feeling of just having started uni, when all the world is at your feet, and you are surrounded by hundreds of other young souls, all embarking on their first few tentative steps towards adulthood. Oh to be 18 again.

[@laurette26evelyn]

Excellent tune from those boys of Stornoway! Really like the simplistic folk-esq harmonies. One of the best tunes I've heard from them. Get yourself down to the Union Chapel,London on Sat 20th evening and see them live.

[@cherokeelair4513]

My god I love this band & this song!

[@Boyce1964]

Excellent and good to know Oxford is still producing good bands!

[@idgafcba]

I may be misremembering this but i have a feeling i might have found this song by looking at the top 10 tracks in the dazed and confused magazine wayyyy back. Lovely tune, its crazy how that magazine doesnt even print monthly issues anymore!? However i found Stornoway, it brings v happy memories for me, this music provided respite from my chaotic life. Thank you!

[@tylergilbert711]

I discovered this band because iTunes used to give away a free album every week/month (I’m not sure) and this track became part of the soundtrack of my high school life in rural Australia ❤

[@christinepachla5098]

I live in the States. I came across this by accident. I cannot accurately describe how it makes me feel .dreamy and elevated to another place.

[@rollingpaulo]

Great set at the Green Man guys - hope to see you on tour - come to Suffolk it realy is quite quaint

[@Smartacus98]

This song is connected for me to a man, we were in love. It's been a long time. I hope he finds his way out of alcoholism and finds peace and makes happiness with his beautiful daughters. Martin B, I still believe you can make it and make it better for yourself and for all those who love you. The world gains light from you, let it happen

[@SnarrlingDarling]

Perfect song for summer.

[@stevenhart6952]

Superb video and superb song, absolutely love it, wish they were still making music like this ☹️

[@joemaaama]

Can't wait to see them tonight in Toronto. Brilliant stuff.

[@fabienno1]

I first heard this yesterday on the radio whilst out for a walk and thought it was a classic from like the 80's or something. It completely relaxed me and now I love them.

[@calw2]

I love that roundabout! so many memories, great song aswell.
