The Farm - Groovy Train (Official HD Video)

[@Bigbob458]

Brilliant tune... Like many have said those truly were the days... Going into the 90s as a teen life really was different no social media and no mobile phones.. Sega mega drives.. Fiesta xr2s...escort cosworths😍.. mk2 golf gtis... Renault 5 turbos...Cool clothes... Dance music kicking off proper.. .. Great festivals n raves... N lots of good nyt clubs... . Everyone on the e, s made for some friendly loving and the best nights out ever... Every generation will say there era was the best but the 90s truly were... Techonology was good just advanced enough... We're too far now.. Anyone who was there will understand... ✌️

Such a beautiful tease of a song. It takes over half the song before the first chorus. All carried by perfect pop instrumentation, crunchy sounds, and great vocal complements. Groovy Train should be shown by the NHS to depressed people -this is what fun feels like on a daft sunny day. Try to have that more often.

[@stephencampbell6424]

What an excellent review, you have really captured the song and it's wonderful, sunny vibe - even after all these years.

[@Picnicl]

Aw thank you Adam. I always think even The Stone Roses, Mancunians/ Cheshire lads, were inspired by Liverpool, what with Mersey Paradise and Spike Island. I hope you're going to see The Stone Roses this year. I'd be interested to know whcih bands you've seen live or are interested in. I really do think, even for that era, Groovy Train was very special. It's a bit like Happy Mondays Kinky Afro - some quirky poetic brilliance.

[@stephencampbell6424]

Cheers mate. Yeah the visuals of the video also remind me of Step On. It was a bright, song with a great hook. I also loved Altogether Now, particularly the theme of the song, which was interesting. Liverpool has always been wonderful for music of course, and I loved how the city synced with Manchester and that part of England around the late 80s, until Brit pop over ran everything. I was a big fan (from a slightly early period) of the Bunnymen, New Order, the Fall and the Smiths, and I saw them all in their pomp - in Belfast, where I'm from. Next up for me in a few weeks is Kraftwerk. Quality is Quality! But I do think I'd swap anything for a time machine and a trip to the Hacienda, 1982, or maybe 1990.

[@Picnicl]

Did you change name, Stephen? I seemed to have called you Adam. New Order's Blue Monday was epic- they took this imperialistic Teutonic-like (maybe partly Kraftwerk) inspired sound, and it seemed to chime with the Industrial Revolution and apocalyptic 1980s de-industrialisation of UK cities. I like The Smiths too - I always think if someone likes The Smiths there must be at least a few Stone Roses songs they like or can like and vice versa. I guess you might have seen Kraftwerk at the Philharmonic Hall in Liverpool in June last year, looking at their schedule. I'd just like to mention Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells 2 from 1992 (plus practically all 80s music) as a big favourite of mine too - it's a much more robust, melodic , new age album, than the straight forward folk of the original.

[@vesavius]

The end of the 80's/ start of the 90's was a special time... We were still buzzing from the 2nd Summer of Love, E was strong, the mood was up, healthy change and positive revolution seemed possible, and the music was strong. Even pop train jumpers like the Farm were putting out fun danceable stuff. Love honestly did seem like a solution. What a shame when we look at now... The 10's have been awful. Negative, authoritarian, lecturing, and vindictive. The kids have no decent drug to call their own, no notable music movement, and no new youth culture at all but identity politics that have rebuilt all the walls we as teenagers wanted to break down. I am glad I lived my young years back when the sun was shining. One love

[@chrishenniker5944]

Final Remains You're right on the identity politics front, it's creating a more tribal mindset while dividing people. That's one of the reasons why there's no musical movement that the kids can call their own. Drill music is nihilistic and vengeful, filled with venom. It really does reflect what the identity politics idiots on the intersectional left and the white right are thinking: us versus them. I'm an indie kid who was too young for the Second Summer of Love, but I wonder if it was just a sham as Hollow as Jarvis Cocker said in "Sorted For Es and Whizz". I wouldn't be surprised if someone said that the Second Summer of Love was just an establishment con game to crack down on the youth and divert them into hedonism to create a generation of addicts enslaved to harder drugs. I bet someone has.
