[@SirHawkeyeWho]

My mother is featured on this song! @ 1:33 I'm very proud of her and all that she (and my father) accomplished during the strike. Thank you so much for including her on your album PSB! She's also featured on the song Mother of the Village too =D!

[@2683shaun]

where can i find this speach?

[@bccollective388]

I was looking for it too, but I couldn't find a recording. "Sian Williams, assistant librarian, helped Willgoose discover an interview with Christine Powell reflecting on the strikes of 1984 and 1985. She can be heard blazing a trail for women in “They Gave Me A Lamp”: “I didn't see any reason why I shouldn't be out there doing what I was doing, why I shouldn't be in the support group.”" www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/features/public-service-broadcasting-interview-every-valley-willgoose-coalmining-ebbw-brexit-trump-a7824571.html

[@2683shaun]

thanks

[@ratbagkennedy]

Omg really?! That is amazing. That was one of my favourite parts. Your mother was decades ahead of her time and she and you should be proud. Thanks to your mother for being part of a heartwarming song. And I am sure you are lovely too!

[@andyj18]

I saw PSB perform this in Manchester on Monday night and can't tell you how much your mother's words really touched me. She's a role model for my little girl and you're right to be very proud indeed!

[@johndavies8728]

Chokes me every time I listen, stunning song but the samples are immense, gives a positive in even the bleakest of times, tremendous album 👏 ❤

[@spekticat]

Oh PSB, why are you so intent on making me cry joyful tears?

[@buffywhatever1093]

These women make me so proud. I will pass this message on to my daughter who lives outside of Wales, however it is a firm reminder of the priceless strength and valuable determination of the country I’m from. Diolch yn fawr iawn

[@blakefish80]

Bloody hell that's a lovely little song isn't it. The subject matter at the heart of this song and of of Every Valley as a whole is still very raw and important to the communities it effected, and PSB have done them proud here. Not surprising though is it? Best band around imo. JW and co keep knocking em' out of the park!

[@MrPDJ123]

So clearly the best band in Britain at the moment. They deserve to be enormous.

[@SnoodyMcFlude]

I can't think of another band at the moment that I enjoy more, British or otherwise

[@christianlesurfmusic]

They are a very quintessential and extremely British band. I don't think you can find a more British band to be honest!

[@cafedeltransit]

MrPDJ123 Yep have to agree with you there although Bears Den are worth a shout...!

[@darrenhurst2660]

My thoughts too. I have not loved a band this much that I can remember in my 48 years. I can't wait for the new album when it arrives.I have seen them a number of times now and I want more than anything to see them perform Every Valley in Wales. I may consider the July gig!

[@rabhip]

lol really

[@rumble602]

Thrilled to see Haiku Salut (the best wonky folktronica band in Derbyshire)in collaboration with PSB.

[@miken3599]

Aidan Rumble Thanks for the heads-up about Haiku Salut. Only recently getting into PSB and saw your comment. Spent the last hour listening to Etch and Etch Deep. I'm really impressed!

[@Elwood.J.Blues13]

I have not heard a song by PSB that has not choked me up. This and The Other Side have me on the verge ofwaterworks. Had this play on the drive to work one morning just before I got in and was like 8 minutes minutes late because I had to collect myself in my car before heading in lol. Wish I could better express the gratitude I, and your fans, have for just how much you mean to us, and how important you are for the world. Thank you.

[@burkezillar]

There was me expecting a welsh male voice choir, and what I get instead are trumpets. And I'm very fucking pleased with what I got!

[@violetnhz]

Michael Burke Welsh male Voice choir features in another song I think :)

[@RedRainBlackFlame]

I just want you guys to know that you have a big fan in the Philippines (hint: me) that keeps on spreading your amazing music at every opportunity he gets.

[@FifthKingdom]

Im from Ogmore vale, South Wales. And iv'e just found my new favorite album, bought it straight away after hearing this. Ive currently got chills all through my body

[@zolaspants]

Makes a change from the rain! Saying that I stayed in Cardiff Bay a few weeks ago and it was sunny for two whole days! Love South Wales.XX

[@paulelliott3220]

Lovely indeed, and that horn section sounds awesome Adore the valleys of Wales I'm from Gloucestershire and loved going over the Severn bridge and visiting the Valleys, Mountains and coastline of Wales Be great to hear the full album from PSB and listen to its full message Love the spoken soundtrack to this song too

[@yasminx16]

As a woman and as a lover of good music I deeply appreciate this. Just....stunning.

[@duonghan4782]

Sweet music of PSB. I love Progress to this. It's starting to make sense to me when i slowly .. being in present in my major, Electrical Engineering. This music relates to me a lot.

[@johnnixon3303]

Got this on a loop at the minute.......love the melody of it and can't wait to listen to the whole of 'Every Valley' from start to finish to fully understand the message that it undoubtedly will deliver!

[@atakanmu]

"If you could get the women into one, you could get them involved in one thing, you could see them in this other light." "...and then they started questioning other aspects of their own, not just relating to themselves, or, at yourself, 'politics was just something that wouldn't affect me', but politics is life, and everything to do with it affects you, directly or indirectly." "A lot of women weren't as fortunate as me, they weren't taught to wire a plug, they were taught to make a sponge; they weren't taught how to change a wheel on a car, they were taught the proper way to iron a white shirt." "...you can't climb up this tree, you're a girl. You can't come with us 'cause you're a girl. And it made me damned determined to do it. And I suppose it sort of stuck with me, so I... I didn't see any reason why I shouldn't be out there doing what I was doing, why I shouldn't work with them, why I shouldn't found a support group I think a lot of women found their feet." "I've been in front, I have never give in, I have never sat back, and I have never refused anybody, and I am very proud of it, and I'll be proud to look back on it."

[@jeffclarke6901]

incredible. so emotional as always. makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. most PSB tracks do that. this band are superb.long may they continue.

[@derekhawley9660]

Going to see them in Leeds (with my missus, who doesn't really understand their music). So British, these guys ... modern prog rock!

[@rick_the_framer]

evocative words at the end, mesmerising tune too, fantastic stuff indeed, thanks guys.

[@JavierRodriguez-fg6yb]

it literally gives a new meaning to underground Rock.... 8-)

[@alanlegge696]

Epic , gentlemen

[@catbobtwin5627]

6 music had a big part in my life thanks to an old friend who opened musical doors. This is a life song for me, Love It

[@davesharman3773]

Fuck me. I like something that appears to be trendy! I've liked every track I've heard by this band.

[@ClarkKentsRockandRollRevue]

Such a joy to rediscover you guys again. such a grandiose sound for a subject that deserves that great podium: Music.

[@filippolczyk1177]

Can't wait for tommorow's concert at Guido coal mine in Zabrze PL.I'm expecting a fantastic show.

[@colincarr2052]

They gave my old man a lamp when he left the pit. Bless the old bugger.

[@OfficialBobCorp]

Brilliant! I love this band so very, very much. :)

[@Chesterman2023]

They can do no wrong! Been listening to PSB for ages. They've hit on an endless supply of material. What they gonna do next??

[@jimb7813]

I absolutely and honestly love PSB . The first time I ever heard this band I knew that I was onto a modern day education. You lads make this lad happy beyond belief. I suffer with every day stress and struggles. Like most people. When I listen to songs like this , all becomes easier. There is good in the World. Thankyou x

[@StephenCotterell]

Looking forward to seeing you in Kingston upon Thames in July

[@nmacog]

[@nightlordAL]

They were perfect at Latitude

[@snoopsbar]

Crackin' is that

[@christianlesurfmusic]

Tidy...

[@Paedo]

enjoyed that, cheers

[@ariasfrancia1854]

So Cool

[@Badpenny13]

28 people need a lamp ..

[@AVevers]

Lovely track. Any remix of this needs to include the "sponge" sample, preferably hundreds of times. The "Sponge Remix", if you will.

[@Bruh-rn9el]

Brother may I have that lamp

[@davidmiller5573]

The best unique British band since Roxy Music.

[@iuqriuqr]

where is the plaid's version? that remix is amazing ! ... this song too

[@norahschwarz4970]

I'm begging you..... Please come to Heidelberg/ Germany!!!!

[@melaniewallrath4822]

Yes indeed....please come back

[@simac8640]

I want your surname Norah

[@mattvolcom76]

Stay true boys. Stay true.

[@eduardomacias4830]

This sounds a lot like the ending of Death And All Of His Friends by Coldplay. It's amazing, though

[@JorgeBurgosjba]

This guys are brilliant! Where was the location of this video?

[@fnduran]

Amazing Radio (UK) brought me here...

[@Chris-tj8kz]

It could only have been the brilliant 6Music, then? ;)

[@danasatrian5792]

pertaman kali play, udah senyum sendiri dengar voice recorder khas psbhq. penggemar public service broadcasting dari indonesia mana suaranya?

[@brenthignight4799]

Can someone tell me where the lyrics are from? Is it all from one source? Thanks for the help.

[@andrewchin4142]

From 'Bootsy' down below: Its from an interview with a woman named Christine Powell who was involved in the miners' strike in the 80s

[@zolaspants]

How about your next album be about the atomic bomb?

[@AJL200]

[@artantme]

What is the speech?

[@Glaucus08]

Its from an interview with a woman named Christine Powell who was involved in the miners' strike in the 80s

[@renatovazpinto9023]

🙃

[@Subcomandante73]

Pre-tied bow ties make me sad.

[@yetidodger6650]

Not only girls....boys need to take an interest right now....vote the nasty party out and restore some equality.

[@kvchun_1764]

too much talk

[@PositiveLastAction]

I like their music, but I'm not a fan of the voice overs. I'd rather they just use a singer.

[@rikkogeluz8214]

The voiceless otter unfortunatly peck because eggnog neurologically signal beside a loose salt. adhesive, dreary grip

[@rabhip]

sorry but am i missing something here? where's the emotion? where is the heartfelt sincerity of any of their songs? I hate these middle class hypocrites for what they are.......fakes! They should be ashamed of themselves.

[@flashflashbang2102]

What a mean spirited arse you are. Did you not listen to a word spoken here? PSB have shone a light on a subject you probably know nothing about and told some people's stories. For the women in the song it was a life changing event. More power to them.

[@eyelevelxyz6088]

Stick with the cooking, Iain.

[@rabhip]

@@flashflashbang2102 They are fucking shite.End of.....Arse.

[@peterrenn6341]

You could just say to yourself - 'ah, not for me' and move on. Other people like it, so good luck to 'em.

[@alimhaider8680]

Terrible.

[@alimhaider8680]

no tune, no thrill,and mining is booring

[@milkminotaur]

bell-end

[@Liofa73]

monster bell-end indeed
