Lindisfarne Meet Me On The Corner

[@JamesGilmour-yt2ve]

Brings back some nice 70s memories.

[@stevendimmock4791]

Brilliant. I'm not a Geordie, but I know how important the group were to the people of Newcastle, especially the Christmas concerts. This was the song that made me fall in love with them as a pointed headed little twelve year old. Forced on me, with no resistance, by my older sister. Although long ago, the quality of this bands music was so high music lovers, Geordie or not, will always love them

[@lewisgreen2957]

Fantastic live performance of a great song!❤️

[@jonathanj.7344]

This was one of my favourite songs in 1972 when I was 14. I learnt the words to it in Disco 45 magazine, and can still sing along to it now with Lindisfarne watching this!

[@JohnSmith-g9z3w]

I'm 71 and I Used to sing this song on dark nights at the top of my back lane great time's great song .

[@mozdickson]

Same here, from NZ 👍

[@stevendimmock4791]

I remember my sister used to get that magazine!!!! Sorry. I think two people just found a reason to feel very old!

[@BarneyKing-wn2gp]

Crammy disco .....like yesterday ❤ shankhouse

[@graemefranklin6484]

It's a fantastic song

[@markharrison8585]

This has just turned up in my KZbin feed in December 2024. I was at this gig as a wee lad 😂

[@biffabacon1203]

Wish I could go back.

[@ColinH1973]

I was there that night. Unforgettable. Thanks for posting this, mate.

[@michaelholmes4374]

[@asburystan]

Puts a smile on your face 😊

[@brentsantus4077]

Smiling like a Cheshire cat now

[@pinball1970]

That harmony! Live!! Brilliant. That's just great musicians doing their thing.

[@jabo22]

Indeed

[@Maltloaflegrande]

One of the great 3-man harmony units of all time. Rough as you like, but grabs you right there.

[@Krzyszczynski]

Yes! The voices sound as though they might be horribly out of tune if heard individually, but put them all together and the result is brilliant. No-one else sounds like Lindisfarne.

[@BarneyKing-wn2gp]

@@Krzyszczynski nicely out of tune 😉

[@francisinnes3542]

Man. I've lived in London for nearly 40 years. Homesick listening to this x

[@robsin2810]

Don’t think you would like London now.

[@mickeymouse7861]

Enjoy this! In 45 years the world is going to be different place, with the Internet, mobile phones, and a pandemic.

[@stephenduffy4855]

Worked in Durham for a year in the 1980's and spent a lot of time in Newcastle then and thereafter when courting my future wife who lived in North Shields. This is so evocative.

[@garethjamesdavies6850]

Saw these live 50+ years ago! ❤

[@beefy8269]

And they played Newcastle City hall on 21/12/2024

[@gazzamacca9813]

The best of Newcastle I love them just as much as I did in 1969❤

[@stevejelly3161]

Not quite !!!!!. . Anan Partridge's "Michael" is there also lol !!!!!! . Nu..... there's brilliant 🙂

[@mattreid859]

More Lindisfarne gold dust!!

[@Duncv8]

[@kathleenmclaughlin4153]

My favourite Lindisfarne song

[@howardtwissell683]

As they say up north ,what a canny bunch of musicians they are . Under rated and always a pleasure to see. Keep on going bonnie lads

[@jonathanwetherell3609]

Iconic song. There Xmas Concerts were a legend, I wish I could have seen them live.

[@TheRedruffian]

We used to go to the City Hall every year to see Lindisfarne and be a part of the party. Back then we had to queue up to get the tickets, none of this Internet nonsense! Best nights ever!

[@AlanDuke-z6k]

This band deserve to have been massive! They were as good as any band of there time time

[@andymoore9977]

They were pretty big!

[@gloriacole4241]

[@jackiegeritz5345]

Hey, Mr Dreamseller, where have you been? Tell me, have you dreams I can see? I came along, just to bring you this song Can you spare one dream for me? You won't have met me, and you'll soon forget So don't mind me tugging at your sleeve I'm asking you if I can fix a rendezvous For your dreams are all I believe Meet me on the corner when the lights are coming on And I'll be there, I promise I'll be there Down the empty streets we'll disappear until the dawn If you have dreams enough to share Lay down your bundles of rags and reminders And spread your wares on the ground Well, I've got time, if you deal in rhyme I'm just hanging around Meet me on the corner when the lights are coming on And I'll be there, I promise I'll be there Down the empty streets we'll disappear until the dawn If you have dreams enough to share Hey, Mr Dreamseller, where have you been? Tell me, have you dreams I can see? I came along, just to bring you this song Can you spare one dream for me? Source: LyricFind Songwriters: Rod Clements

[@timothyparsons8327]

You had to be at school when this came out! When Lady Eleanor appeared with that haunting intro we were blown away, even though we can’t dig the lyrics… even now!

[@MartinFolan-kz5rk]

God I was 22 when this came out in 1972! A great song!

[@countryboy57954]

Same here martin! Jeez that is literally a lifetime ago !!

[@daviddenham1511]

I was 12……brilliant!…..I’m 64 now……still remember this

[@Leeroy6572]

[@BORDERSALAN]

[@walkfarm1]

Gosh, I had forgotten, but I was probably there as I went to a Lindisfarne concert whilst I was at university in Newcastle.

[@1970johnpaul]

I do wish I'd been old enough to see them live back then... Superb.

[@amandeyorke36]

i brought this in 1972 what a year 4 music x

[@joansmith8528]

I was born in 1972 and I really appreciate 70's music, especially Lindisfarne.

[@freisein6554]

What happened to music ? But this warms my heart ❤️

[@Kim-iv4ty]

I am so glad I got to see them twice , once in the 70's and again in the early 90's. Great band.

[@peterpeacock8543]

[@paulmckay]

The City Hall Newcastle where they belonged.

[@TheRedruffian]

They *owned* the City Hall, man. For two weeks every year, at least 😊

[@marcnewby81]

Bed time song as a child ❤

[@JohnDurkin-mh4wn]

Love these guys

[@tl8319]

Wow. Can you imagine Genesis coming on right after this, as they did many times. Like Bob Ross introducing you to Monet. Here’s a quaint world, NOW HERES THE UNIVERSE.

[@skinnytinny9023]

Hmmm, I listen to a lot of Lindisfarne, nothing by Genesis or their drummer.

[@dcburton100]

Genesis were wankers

[@atomicrocker]

Imagine that Mark Knopfler could have been somewhere in the audience!

[@BlueSkiesAbove39]

Good to see Bob Carolgees has found himself an alternative career.
