Rockpile - Now And Always (1980)

[@cak813]

What a great song. Shades of Buddy Holly and the Everly Brothers.

[@cristinacp8720]

A brilliant ditty. Such sparkling harmonies. Just exceptional.

[@snicky58]

YES! It reminds so much of the Everly Brothers with the gorgeous harmony.

[@panapet888]

I never get tired of this song. I've heard it a million times.

[@klskrzn1]

2 million :-)

[@rickdagger2209]

the vocal work on this is superb as well as Dave Edmunds guitar I love this song I love rock pile for me this is classic rock

[@pit2ryan3]

Richard Sabsay - Not to belittle Dave Edmunds of course , but I guess the best guitar parts are by Billy Bremner actually...

[@andrewharman787]

@@pit2ryan3 They are both great guitarists. I think Dave is the greater technician, evidenced by his early stuff with Love Sculpture.

懐かしい😂🎉 thanks😂🎉

[@jamesbrady5663]

The intro sounds like Buddy Holly's "I'm Gonna Love You Too." Not a bad thing! Definitely some Everly Bros thrown in, too.

Kings of New Wave pub rock--and strange key changes.

[@jimmyrazor6202]

Holy shades of Buddy Holly's "Learning the Game!"

[@ruthlibert9527]

Great song. Should have been a hit. Great guitar riffs by Dave Edmonds. A real challenge to play but a lot of fun trying!

[@MikeC.11]

A REAL challenge to play.

[@n33ne]

love the 50s sound that rockpile channeled in their music

[@gregghorner9107]

How was this not a hit?

[@greenhouseceltic1903]

25 years too late.

[@ericbohm1981]

It's a B-side! A-side was Wrong Way.

[@MarciaB12]

Love this. Wish it were a pasing phase

[@karl-erikolsson6897]

The best rocking band ewer

[@nari-hatuka]

I close my eyes and count to ten And wonder why I just don't pack it in I tell myself it's one of those days And not for now and always I pace, I prowl, I punch the wall And wonder why I just don't end it all I tell myself it's a passing phase And not for now and always There's never anything strong that's louder, And when there's anything on its over, I'd rather anything then but now & always

[@harrimuurinen6571]

Touch of Buddy Holly here.

[@simplemade1]

And Everly Brothers.

[@MikeC.11]

They were even better live. Saw them opening for Blondie. No contest.

[@paulengel3417]

saw them open for van morrison...both were incredible!

[@rocketman6323]

Awesome!

[@user-ej5ye9cf7m]

Omg, sonds like the Beales!

[@dennissmith8031]

I hear a lot of Buddy Holly in this one.

[@hansvandiejie]

Rockpile died because of contractual issues. Pity, as this wonderful song shows.

[@JavierLopez-fh1ts]

I knew she would be mine someday And that day has arrived

@@MarnixRoels I don’t know what to tell you. It’s definitely available as a single song because I’ve added it to one of my own playlists.
